  • The government is making changes to beach protection

    The government is making changes to beach protection

    Beach protection should be lifted for small lakes and narrow waterways, the government proposes in a legislative council referral.

    – There has been an overly far-reaching beach protection, says climate minister Romina Pourmokhtari (L) at a press conference.

    The change means that it will be easier to build near water.

    The government proposes, among other things:

    – No general shore protection shall apply around lakes smaller than one hectare

    – No general beach protection along waterways narrower than two metres

    – No shore protection for lakes and watercourses, constructed after June 30, 1975

    – Beach protection can be introduced at small lakes and narrow waterways that are of particular importance for one of the purposes of the beach protection

    The beach protection will be abolished in several contexts.

    – This is the first step of our liberalization of beach protection, which we know is much anticipated by the Swedish people, says Romina Pourmokhtari.

    Critics have called the amendment a restriction on civil rights.

    The law will enter into force on 1 July 2025.

    Two executed after deadly attacks in China

    Two men have been executed after two separate deadly attacks in China in November, state media reports.

    One of those executed, a 62-year-old man, has been convicted of killing 35 people by driving into a crowd in the Chinese city of Zhuhai in late November. According to the authorities, the attack was the deadliest in the country in over ten years.

    The perpetrator went on the attack at a sports arena where people had gathered to train. 35 were killed and 43 injured, according to state media. The convicted man was arrested at the scene. He had managed to injure himself with a knife and ended up in a coma, according to the police.

    In the second attack, also in November, eight people were killed and 17 injured when a 21-year-old man carried out a knife attack at a vocational school in the city of Wuxi.
