The armed forces buy new skis. The faithful “White Lightning”, which has been in service since the Second World War, is slowly being phased out.

The M/40, as the ski was designated, was developed after winter equipment had proven useful in the Finnish Winter War.

“The skis quickly get the nickname ‘white lightning’, a hint that they are not that fast,” writes the state’s Army Museum in a comment to Aftonbladet.

The new ski will be warp-free and will also have a long service life.

– Many in the Armed Forces appreciate the White Lightning even though it has many years behind it, says Linnea Andersson, chief engineer at the Armed Forces materiel works.

Even if the “White Lightning” is slowly being replaced, it will be used for many more years, according to the Swedish Armed Forces.

The Jewish Central Council is sticking to the porting of the Left Party from its commemorations for the time being.

– We will continue the discussion. It’s a discussion we need to have in our board, says chairman Aron Verständig after a meeting with Left-wing leader Nooshi Dadgostar in Stockholm on Tuesday.

The decision to porta V came earlier in October after several cases where local politicians from the party spoke out anti-Semitic or in support of terrorist organizations. Dadgostar then took the initiative for Tuesday’s meeting with the central council.
