The government wants to strengthen closed youth care at SiS homes with SEK 700 million in 2025.

Kiev and Lviv were subjected to Russian robot and drone attacks early on Wednesday, Reuters reports, citing the Ukrainian military.
In Lviv, two people are said to have been killed.
More than 20 people have been injured, says Lviv Region Governor Maksym Kozytskyj on Telegram.
The attacks take place the day after the bloody robot attack on the city of Poltava, where more than 50 people are said to have been killed.
Witnesses told Reuters on Wednesday that they heard several explosions on the outskirts of Kiev and Lviv and that it sounded like air defenses had been activated. In the latter city, buildings were said to have been hit by projectiles, according to Governor Kozytskyj.
According to the governor, several schools are closed during the day as a result of the attacks.
Earlier in the morning, aircraft alarms were heard all over Ukraine, the country’s air force writes on Telegram.
Lviv is not far from the border with NATO country Poland, which states that the country’s air defenses were activated during the night – for the third time in just over a week.
“Another very intense night for the entire air defense system in Poland, due to the observed activity of aviation from the Russian Federation,” writes the operational command at X.

Tuesday’s attack, in which two Iskander robots crashed into a military school building and a nearby healthcare facility, is one of the deadliest single incidents since Russia launched the war in Ukraine in February 2022.
Poltava has several hundred thousand inhabitants and is about ten miles from the border with Russia, further inland than the more war-affected big city of Kharkiv.
