Felling of a tree for safety reasons

Início27 August 2026 at 08:49

The Municipality of Guimarães announced the felling of a tree on August 28 at 8:00 AM, after it suffered irreversible structural damage caused by a road collision involving a heavy vehicle. The crown rupture and the tearing of support tissues permanently compromised the stability of the specimen, representing a risk to the safety of citizens on a street with constant traffic. The tree will be replaced after felling, and all tree removal decisions are technically justified.

How many people are missing in Nepal and Tibet after the mud avalanche? Understand the tragedy in 5 points

A mudslide hit on Wednesday, the 26th, the border region between Nepal and Tibet, leaving people missing. The landslide, which reportedly originated from the Nepali side, left a layer of mud that in some points reaches up to 2 meters in depth. Composed of a wave of water, ice, sands and rocks, the avalanche went down through the Trishuli and Bhote Koshi rivers, reaching areas near the border between the two territories. Due to the mountainous nature of the region, much of it remains isolated, and information arrives slowly, making it difficult to assess the full extent of the damage and the number of victims.
