Foreigners Dominate In Violent Criminal Offenses On German Public Transport
The issue of crime on public transport in Germany is a major topic, as the left wants more people taking public transport while at the same time promoting open borders, which makes public transport more and more dangerous. The data has shown for years that migrants are sexually assaulting women, partaking in knife attacks, and generally making public transport hell for Germans, and the latest data from the southern state of Baden-Württemberg only highlights this trend. There, a recent inquiry by the Alternative for Germany (AfD) to the Ministry of the Interior, Digitalization, and Municipalities reveals a concerning picture of safety on public transport in Baden-Württemberg. In 2024, Baden-Württemberg's public transport system saw a total of 30,950 individuals identified as suspects for various crimes, averaging about 85 suspects per day. It is important to note that this figure does not include violations for immigration offenses, which can only be committed by foreigners, of which there were an additional 20,339 violations of immigration law, bringing the total recorded incidents in public transport to 51,289.

By John Lee. Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed S. Al-Sudani has inaugurated the Al-Amarah Unified Major Water Project, a 16,000 m³/hour facility aimed at securing potable water supply for all areas of Al-Amarah City in Maysan [Missan] Province.

He noted that the Al-Amarah water project, first launched in 2009, had been severely delayed, contributing to citizen hardships. The 100-donum facility includes a water treatment plant, three secondary booster stations, three dual river crossings over the Tigris River and Al-Kahla regulator, and 32 km of transmission pipelines. The Prime Minister praised the efforts of the Ministry of Construction, Housing, and Municipalities, as well as the provincial municipal departments, for their role in delivering this long-awaited project.
