Person found dead after house fire

Police and emergency services are alerted to a house fire outside Hässleholm.

– There is a fire under a wooden deck next to a villa, says Anders Pålsson, officer on duty at the rescue service.

The fire must have been discovered by the villa owners themselves, who tried to extinguish the fire. Now it should be under control.

– We have sawed up the wooden deck to access everywhere, but now the final extinguishing is underway.

However, he has no information that police or an ambulance are on the scene.

At least 20 people, including three children, have been injured in a Russian attack on a residential area in the city of Kharkiv in Ukraine, the region’s governor Oleg Synegubov said.

Synegubov writes on the Telegram messaging service that eight people are being treated in hospital, two of them with life-threatening injuries, after a Russian attack on two multi-storey buildings in the city where people were sleeping late on Saturday.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Saturday’s attack clearly shows why Ukrainian forces need to be able to use the weapons provided by Western allies for attacks deeper into Russian territory – something that has so far been denied.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog says to Sky News that Israel is not involved in the explosions involving pagers and other technical devices that have occurred in recent days.

– Hezbollah has many enemies out there. Hezbollah has destroyed Lebanon and created havoc in Lebanon. We’re here to defend ourselves, that’s all we do, Isaac Herzog said.

Herzog also said that Israel does not want a full-scale war with Lebanon.

12 people died in the attacks and over 2000 people were injured.

A cyclist has been hit by a car in Halmstad, writes Hallandsposten.

– What we have received is that the person has been taken to hospital by ambulance, says the alarm operator at SOS alarm to the newspaper.

Police are also called to the scene.

At least six people are missing after widespread rain caused landslides and floods in the northeastern region of Noto in Japan.

One person has died after being swept away by masses of water and another person who also disappeared in the water has not yet been found.

Rescue workers are also searching for four people who are missing after a landslide at a construction site in the coastal city of Wajima was triggered by heavy rain.

In the past three days, about 50 centimeters of rain has fallen in the region, which is still rebuilding after a powerful earthquake on January 1 this year that killed more than 370 people and caused extensive damage to infrastructure.

The man who was pulled into the water yesterday at Scaniabadet has died.

The man has not yet been identified.

A motorist has overturned on highway 70 outside Avesta.

The driver was able to get out of the vehicle himself and is awake and able to speak, but the police write on their website that the extent of the damage is still unclear.

Police, emergency services and an ambulance are on their way to the scene.

There is a total stop in the northbound direction for the time being.

Update:

The driver was taken by ambulance for a check-up.

The traffic has started to be allowed again.

A report of negligence in traffic will be drawn up to be able to investigate the incident.

Amortization requirements should be lowered. This is what the current inquiry will propose when it presents its proposal in just over a month. This is confirmed by John Hassler, professor of economics and one of the investigators, reports Svenska Dagbladet.

– I will come at the beginning of November with a proposal for relief, said John Hassler recently in connection with a trade fair.

A reduction or abolition of the amortization requirement would provide relief for many households that currently have high interest rates.

– The rules we have today reduce the demand for housing. If the government loosens the rules, demand will increase, Hassler said.

A scrapped amortization requirement was one of the Moderates’ election promises, and the Sweden Democrats have also pushed the issue. Both the Financial Supervisory Authority and the Riksbank have been critical of an abandoned requirement.

The vessel MV Ruby was supposed to sail through Danish waters with pilot assistance during the weekend – but that is not to be.

The original plan was for a pilot from Danish Danpilot to board the MV Ruby on Saturday and disembark when the vessel passed Gedser, on Falster’s southern tip.

But that plan has changed, reports Danish TV2.

Anne Heinze, Danpilot’s press manager, writes to TV2 on Sunday morning that the company has no current order for a pilot, whose task is to help and advise a ship’s captain.

According to sites that follow shipping, the ship is more or less stationary outside Norway.

Four people have been shot dead and dozens are said to have been injured in a shooting in Birmingham, Alabama, USA, late Saturday local time, reports ABC News.

The shooting reportedly took place outdoors in the city’s Five Points South entertainment district.

According to CNN, three of the victims, two men and one woman, were pronounced dead at the scene. The fourth victim was taken to hospital but the person’s life could not be saved. All must have been on the sidewalk or on the street in the entertainment district.

– We believe that several shooters fired several shots at a group of people, Truman Fitzgerald of the Birmingham police told CNN.

Fitzgerald also states that several victims were found in the area and that other victims made it to local hospitals.

– We have several victims with gunshot wounds from the area. I have received information that at least four of the gunshot victims have life-threatening injuries, he says.

Police say no suspects have yet been arrested.

At around 21:30 on Saturday, the police are alerted to a bus in Gottfridsberg.

A man in his 35s has assaulted a man in his 80s. The police suspect that the man used some kind of prank.

The man was arrested on suspicion of aggravated assault.

The elderly man who had been beaten was taken to the hospital by ambulance.

The extent of his injuries is unknown, but he was able to be heard by the police during the night.

On Sunday morning, prosecutors decided to lift the arrest of the 35-year-old man.

At least 30 workers have been found dead since a methane leak triggered an explosion in an Iranian coal mine, the country’s state media reports.

About 70 people were working in the mine at the time of the accident. A number of them are feared to be trapped due to debris following the explosion.

The mine is located in Tabas, over 50 miles southeast of Tehran.

Iran uses 3.5 million tons of the polluting coal as fuel each year. About half of it is mined within the country, while the rest is imported.
