Donald Tusk admits that the scale of the war in Ukraine could affect Poland

SIC Notícias13 September 2026 at 17:43

Donald Tusk admitted that the scale of the war in Ukraine could affect Poland. This statement comes at a time of growing concern about the evolution of the conflict.

Ukraine is under increasing pressure due to the intensification of the Russian aerial campaign. Russian forces have been using ballistic missiles and drones in their attacks.

The Polish prime minister thus expressed his concern about the possibility of the conflict extending beyond Ukrainian borders.

Why this matters

Polish readers face the real possibility of being affected by side effects of the war in neighboring Ukraine, including potential impacts on air defense systems and the security of the eastern regions of the country. This admission from Tusk represents a concrete warning about escalation risks for the local population.

Illegal immigrants use Portugal as secondary route to "make the leap" to Ireland

João Ribeiro, deputy national director of the PSP and head of the National Foreigners and Borders Unit, revealed that Portugal is being used as a secondary route by illegal immigrants, mainly to continue on to Ireland. In statements to the Portuguese news agency, he explained that irregular immigrants arrive in major Portuguese cities by train and bus, with some intending to only move on to other countries. In just one year, a special international operation at Portela airport detected more than 200 people heading to Ireland.

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.
