Sergei Cherevaty, spokesman for the Eastern Army Group of Ukraine, said on the BBC’s live broadcast on Sunday that the western part of Bachmut is still in Ukrainian hands:
– The Russian troops – especially the terrorists in the Wagner group – attacked our positions 16 times in the last 24 hours. Every day we kill many enemies, we destroy their military equipment and undermine their morale. Step by step, we are sabotaging their ability to attack our positions, Cherevaty said.
The Swedish Press Freedom Ordinance is designated as a World Heritage Site by Unesco, TT reports.
The regulation is the oldest law in the world that stipulates the right to express oneself freely and to take part in public documents.
The Freedom of the Press Ordinance was adopted in 1766 and the source material is preserved today at the National Archives and the Royal Library in Stockholm.
“The importance of the freedom of the press regulation can be seen in the light of the fact that Sweden is today recognized around the world for its support for democracy and civil liberties. The award sheds light on one of the most fundamental human rights in the world,” says National Archivist Karin Åström Iko and National Librarian Karin Grönvall in a joint statement.
Since 1949, the Freedom of the Press Ordinance has also been the constitution of Sweden.
The Russian television channel Pervij kanal compares the alleged Russian conquest of Ukrainian Bakhmut to the victory in World War II, when Berlin was captured:
– Victory! Bachmut is ours! Probably our soldiers feel the same as our forefathers felt in Berlin. We defend our motherland. We do a good job. We fight neo-fascism, it was said in the channel’s news broadcast on Sunday, according to Meduza magazine.

What happened to the elderly man who refused to move his car after having his tires punctured by mats of nails last winter?
Anna
Hi Anna!
The last I read about him was in The Wermlands newspaper in November.
Then he would buy a new car after living in the old one for two weeks. He then said that he intended to lift the broken car into the air and leave it at the scene.
He also told us at Aftonbladet that he would register the old car at the National Police Board.

Hello! According to the organization Keep Sweden Clean, it takes approximately 1-5 years for a discarded cigarette butt to decompose into microplastic.
“Microplastic can take 100 years before it disappears, if it even does,” they also write.

Hello! Both are named in the article. Why we only have one picture of Payam Kia is because the article is about him.
