⚔️ Ultimatum

Portugal is grappling with fresh controversies, including the collapse of a prominent fertility clinic that has left patients in a precarious situation, and the archiving of a complaint detailing alleged labor harassment and illegal hiring practices within the Assembly of the Republic. These new domestic issues are capturing significant public attention. Meanwhile, the political landscape remains fraught with tension. The President has reportedly not denied an alleged ultimatum to Prime Minister Luís Montenegro, while the far-right Chega party has launched a new offensive targeting the Minister of Home Affairs, Luís Neves, who has publicly vowed to remain in his post and fight populism. Other parties have dismissed Chega's no-confidence motion as political 'folklore'. Amidst these challenges, there is positive news as the country has seen a 74% reduction in burnt areas by wildfires compared to last year. Additionally, a detailed second-by-second account of the Elevador da Glória accident has been published, shedding more light on the incident.
