One of the Spanish lotteries, ONCE, has winning tickets in the Canary Islands of almost 10 million euros from Friday's draw (September 24th), in Tenerife and Gran Canaria. In total there are 30 different winners of various amounts, including a 9,000,000 jackpot winner in Gran Canaria.

"I don’t believe it. I'm very happy. It is a joy for the Canaries at this difficult time”, said Olga María, who wanted to send an affectionate hug to her neighbours from La Palma, in these moments of anguish.
