SAPO Notícias13 September 2026 at 13:33

The Federação dos Bombeiros do Distrito de Lisboa (FBDL) considers it "unsustainable and unacceptable" that the Humanitarian Associations continue to bear successive fuel price increases. The structure therefore demands concrete measures from the Government.

Why this matters

Readers in the region are directly affected because the Humanitarian Associations of firefighters face growing fuel costs, which may compromise their operational capacity and the maintenance of essential emergency services to the community. The demand for government intervention signals a systemic problem that may have repercussions on the response to fires and emergencies in the Lisbon region.

Old tenants returned keys that didn't open the door and the house ended up occupied by 'squatters': court didn't rule in favor of the owner

A Spanish owner tried to hold former tenants responsible for unpaid rent after the house was illegally occupied. He claimed that the returned keys didn't open the door, but the court considered that the delivery of the keys constituted a sufficient act of restitution of possession, rejecting both the eviction request and the collection of rent. The Provincial Court of Barcelona confirmed that, at the time of the legal action, the contract was already terminated and the tenants had already returned the property, with no evidence of any connection between the former tenants and the illegal occupants.
