The police in Iran have arrested 35 people in what the authorities and state-loyal media describe as a “Satanist meeting”, which is said to have contained “signs and symbols of Satanism, alcohol and drugs”.

Previous raids have, for example, taken place against rock concerts.
SD has opened up cooperation in the EU with pro-Russian parties far to the right, such as the National Front in France.
Something Aftonbladet was able to report yesterday.
Now the Social Democrats are demanding information from Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson about his cooperation with SD.
– Should SD sit in meetings in the EU with Russia’s extended arm and parties that have close links to Putin? asks the Social Democrats’ party secretary Tobias Baudin at a press conference.
Baudin is also critical of Kristersson not participating in Järvaveckan.
– We are in the middle of an election campaign that is characterized by divisive messages and where the largest party in his government documents is reaching out to pro-Putin parties. It is serious. One can ask why he chose not to participate?

Venice is introducing new restrictions in a bid to save the city from mass tourism.
Loudspeakers and tourist groups of more than 25 people are now banned, the BBC reports.
Earlier this year, the city also introduced an entrance fee for day visitors of five euros, equivalent to around SEK 58.
Mass tourism to Little Venice is seen as an increasingly urgent problem for the city, whose canals attract millions of visitors annually. At the same time, the original inhabitants flee. According to calculations, there are more beds for tourists than for residents, writes the BBC.
– We aim to make the city more livable again, Mayor Luigi Brugnaro has previously said about the fight to save the city.

The number of dead and wounded Russian soldiers has probably reached 500,000, the Ministry of Defense in London states in its latest status report on the war.
In May of this year alone, an average of 1,200 Russian soldiers were killed and wounded every day, according to the ministry. It is the highest reported daily figure since the start of the war in 2022.
At the same time, Russia continues to recruit new soldiers, the British write on X.
Exact figures for killed and injured Russian and Ukrainian soldiers have been notoriously difficult to verify during the course of the war, not least as Russia and Ukraine often state vastly different numbers.

What does it mean that Trump is impeached? Can he get jail time?
Peace
Hey Fred!
Yes, he can. The maximum penalty for the crimes he was convicted of is four years in prison, according to the New York Times. But that he will receive a prison sentence is seen as unlikely by several American experts, because he has not been convicted before.
What sentence he may be announced on July 11.

You should probably double check the stated temperatures in the post about the heat wave in Mexico City.
Eve
Hello Eva! I also thought it appeared like very low record temperatures in Mexico City, when we had 38 degrees in Målilla. But this 34.7 degrees actually seems to be the heat record in Mexico City, writes concurring international media. The fact that it doesn’t get warmer seems to be because the city is located in a valley at a very high altitude.
