Jornal de Negócios4 September 2026 at 09:12

The legal limits on night flights at Lisbon airport were exceeded in 33 of the 35 weeks since the beginning of 2026, having been met in only two weeks throughout the entire period. August was identified as the most critical period in terms of non-compliance with these rules.

The Zero organization announced on Friday the launch of a public monitoring platform for night flights, allowing citizens to track in real time the compliance with legal air traffic limits during the night.

The article does not specify exactly what the legal limits in question are, nor which entities are responsible for their definition and enforcement. The platform launched by Zero emerges as a tool for transparency and citizen oversight of nighttime airport activity.

Taiwan plans additional 3.9 billion euros for Defense spending in 2026

Taiwan's Government proposed an additional increase of 3.95 billion euros in Defense spending for 2026, aimed at strengthening the island's defensive combat capability, including the urgent acquisition of more than 600 surveillance drones, 40,000 coastal attack drones and 100 unmanned suicide attack vessels, in addition to medium-range anti-ballistic missiles. The proposal was, however, reduced by the parliament controlled by the opposition. Taiwan has been reinforcing its "asymmetric warfare" strategy in response to China's growing military power, which considers the island one of its provinces and does not rule out the use of force.
