Second San Fermín running of the bulls, live: injuries, livestock, and the latest news from Pamplona today
Watch the second San Fermín running of the bulls live, with the latest news on today's events in Pamplona.
Health sources report eight incidents, all involving men over 25 years of age. All were transferred for bruises and wounds of varying severity, with the exception of the person gored in the armpit, who is in stable condition. In addition, one of those injured yesterday due to trauma remains stable but under observation.
Here's the photo gallery from the second San Fermín bull run, starring Cebada Gago. Don't miss it!
The steers have avoided some goring with a magical presence, the San Fermín cape has materialized in them.
The video of the bulls' arrival, while everyone was glancing sideways at the screens in the stands, was heartbreakingly emotional. The ring, packed to the rafters with unconscious people (some didn't even know a Cebada was yet to arrive, with the danger posed by a lone bull in the crowd), created tension, and the bullfighters had to throw their capes over their faces to prevent any harm. Report: Rosario Pérez
Caminante was the lagging bull and the protagonist of this morning due to the danger he caused, giving defeats, going from side to side, turning and trying to charge at everything that moved.
The Cebada Gago bulls lived up to their legend with a dangerous run from Cuesta de Santo Domingo to the bullring. More than five minutes of high tension, with one bull left hanging, created exciting moments and gave work to the shepherds and bullfighters. Reported by Ángel González Abada
Five were transferred for injuries and one was gored by a bull.
After holding our breath with the Cebada Gago bull run, we await the provisional report of injuries.
Today they had to go to great lengths because the danger was at its highest and a disaster could have happened.
The moments of tension that were experienced with that bull charging at everything that moved were impressive.
Already in. Final time: 5 minutes 22 seconds

"We ask San Fermín, as our patron saint, to guide us in the running of the bulls by giving us his blessing," the young men pray, newspaper in hand.
The public is glued to their phones. Everyone wants to take in everything.
There's nothing left until the bull run begins, and even less until the first chant is heard. How nervous!
Muscles cannot fail, so runners warm up their muscles so they do not fail them in their race with the bulls.
Today the runners are showing even greater concern than usual. They're waiting for the Cebadas team, and their legend permeates the atmosphere. Report: Ángel González Abad
It's the phrase that sums it all up. The waiters' nerves are on edge. And the Cebada Gago team is a big name.
To ensure everything is ready at this time, there's a whole liturgy behind it. Thus, every morning of the celebration, each and every one of the movements leading to the 8 a.m. rocket's goal is repeated.
The fencing begins to be put up at 5 a.m., while the early risers look for the best spots to watch the running of the bulls, the balconies begin to fill up.
The cleanup crews along the route. The local police, the regional police, the shepherds in their positions... The liturgy of the running of the bulls. Reported by: Ángel González Abad
That is the number of balconies that overlook the official route and that every morning are filled with people who don't want to miss the San Fermín bull runs.
This is how Clavelitos, Clavelitos de mi corazón, sounds in the stands, the bleachers, and the crowds. Everyone sings to the rhythm of Maestro Bravo, a phenomenon. Reports Rosario Pérez
The bullring is packed to the rafters. Reported by Rosario Pérez
The municipal delegation is finishing its usual walk along the route, checking that everything is more than in order.
The fence serves as a grandstand, as it does every morning, providing seating for the early risers who will have the privilege of watching the bull run in the VIP row.
The highest authority is already present and this can only indicate that there is only half an hour left until the bull run begins.
The morning of July 8th provided memorable moments. In 1995, a Miura bull, which had already entered the bullring, left the ring and ran for about a hundred meters in the opposite direction, causing fear, confusion, and more than one unexpected scare. Fortunately, it was redirected by the shepherds and steers. Reported by Ángel González Abad
Only runners are allowed inside the course, so officers sweep the streets and escort the runners to their starting points.
The bulls wait impatiently in the corrals of Santo Domingo to go out and enjoy the bull run.
Of all the injured from the first bull run, only one man remains hospitalized with a leg contusion.
On July 12, 1988, the Cebada Gago bulls starred in a long and dangerous run that lasted eight minutes and eight seconds, and ten years later, one of the fastest, lasting two minutes and 13 seconds. Reported by Ángel González Abad
The saint is now making his traditional walk toward his niche on the Cuesta de Santo Domingo, weaving his way through the hustle and bustle. Everyone wants to touch him!
Sunny and cool morning with about 14 degrees in the air

The Cebada Gago who will have the honor of running through the historic center of Pamplona are:
Campero, dark-brown bull, 545 kg
Pointer, light brown bull, 570 kg
Caminante, a bull with a white, brindle, and a mean bull, weighing 575 kg
Lioso, a beautiful light chestnut, 580 kg
Cotorrito, a black morlaco, 520 kg
Avanto, a black antlered bull, 545 kg
More than 20,000 people are already at the Monumental bullring. They've been there since 6 a.m. to enjoy this second day of San Fermín.
No one wants to miss the Cebada Gago festival, and the atmosphere is spectacular despite it being Tuesday. Adults and children alike await the traditional chupinazo (fireworks) to watch the second running of the bulls of San Fermin.
The Cebada Gago bulls are resting in the Corrales del Gas before the running of the bulls until they reach Santo Domingo, where they will begin their race to the Monumental bullring starting at 8 a.m. It's almost here! Rosario Pérez reports.
The Cadiz cattle ranch has been a regular at the second running of the bulls, which runners are awaiting with particular caution. Twenty of the more than sixty injuries occurred on July 8th. The worst day, along with the fateful one in 2003, was on the morning of 2016, when seven people were gored to varying degrees. Reported by: Ángel González Abad
Lioso, branded with the number 24, has been the sensation of the bullpens thanks to his spectacular coat. No bull has been more photographed. Reports Rosario Pérez
The Cebada Gago bulls have always been the protagonists of dangerous runs that have resulted in serious accidents. More than sixty people have been gored by bulls, to which is added one fatality in the 2003 running of the bulls.
Reports by Ángel González Abad
The second bull run will feature one of the most emblematic ranches that attend the Pamplona Bull Fair each year. Today, the bulls will be run in the bull run, and in the afternoon, bulls from Cebada Gago will be fought. This Cádiz-based brand debuted at San Fermin forty years ago and, after Miura, is the ranch with the most presence at these festivals.
In the second round of the fair, bullfighters Antonio Ferrera, Román, and Pepe Moral, who is replacing the injured Victor Hernández, will face the Cebadas.
Reports: Ángel González Abad
Good morning, the second day of the San Fermin festival, and everyone is eagerly awaiting the Cebada Gago parade in action through Pamplona's historic center.
