Alvinho leaves shelter where he lived with his mother and returns to Cabo Frio where he will finish the school year: 'A new story being written'

Adriano Álvaro Melo, known as Alvinho, 10 years old, and his mother Priscila, 42, left on Sunday morning the municipal shelter where they had been living since early June. The two headed to Cabo Frio, in the Lagos Region, where the boy will finish the school year.

Priscila reported that the Legacy School, where the boy was enrolled at the beginning of the year, granted a new full scholarship. The boy had received the benefit at the beginning of the year through the director of the local shelter, where they had been before coming to Rio. However, Alvinho was forced to drop out of school due to Priscila's health condition.

According to the boy's mother, a person committed to paying the rent for a property for the two of them in Cabo Frio until the end of the year. At the same time, they are choosing a new property to buy in the North Zone of Rio.

Why this matters

The family returns to Cabo Frio after months in a shelter in Rio, and the child resumes his studies with a full scholarship, which represents a positive change in the life of the 10-year-old boy. The local community follows the story of overcoming and the possibility of moving to the North Zone of Rio.

Gulf countries' meeting on Monday will not lead to reopening of the Strait of Hormuz

The Gulf countries, Iran and Iraq meet on Monday in Oman to discuss the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's main oil and gas shipping routes. Tehran said the meeting demonstrates "good intention" and that a provisional mechanism will be presented to manage ship transit through Iranian and Omani waters, with a joint maritime corridor and a plan to remove mines. However, Iran confirmed that the agreement with Oman does not mean the reopening of the strait, as it depends on the United States resuming its commitments. Bahrain has already announced it will not participate in the meeting, considering that regional security "cannot be preserved through a policy of appeasement".

The "Serrenhos" and their Origins

This article explores the historical origins of the inhabitants of the Serra Algarvia, known as "Serrenhos", tracing them back to the Muslim invasion of the Iberian Peninsula in the 8th century. The author explains that the Berbers, coming from North Africa, were relegated to the poorest and most mountainous lands of the Algarve, while the Arabs occupied the urban centers and the best agricultural lands. Over the centuries, the Serrenhos remained isolated in their villages, preserving physical and linguistic characteristics that still today reflect their Berber origins, including dialectal expressions with clear roots in the Arabic language. The author also shares personal memories from the 1940s and examples of local expressions in decline.

Irregular immigrants increase at train and bus arrivals

The Public Security Police warned of an increase in the number of irregular immigrants arriving in Portugal by train and bus, with a focus on the Lisbon and Porto metropolitan areas. These citizens travel from other European Union member states, taking advantage of the Schengen area to change territory after unsuccessful attempts to regularize their status in other European countries. According to the director of UNEF, Portugal functions as a transit platform, not as a final destination, with many intending to move on to Scandinavia, Poland, the Netherlands, or Germany. The PSP guarantees that the mobile control device at stations and bus terminals will be maintained to monitor these secondary immigration flows.
