Distressed passers-by have sent in a worrying video of a scaffolding at risk of toppling towards the Balluta area in Sliema.
A worker, seemingly unstrapped and without safety equipment, is seen in the video attempting to grab hold of the scaffolding with a rope as heavy winds threatened to collapse the scaffolding.
Police were on site to close off the area as tourists watched behind police lines.

After much anticipation from the local television audience and a boatload of hints from production company greatt, The Voice Kids Malta has officially been announced.
The music show is an international franchise which welcomes children to participate in a competition of talents to crown the ultimate winner.
In its first official post, The Voice Kids Malta Facebook page stated: “The legendary tv format based on The Voice TV series franchise in which children between 8 and 14 can participate! This format will give the right platform for children to shine and kickstart their career.”
After it got green-lit by the UN-Habitat and the Metropolitan City of Busan last December, OCEANIX is setting into effect an ambitious plan of building a floating city project off the coast of Busan, South Korea.
Set to be designed in collaboration with Samsung-owned architecture firm SAMOO and UN-Habitat, OCEANIX seeks to ‘mediate’ the impacts rapid population growth is having on the environment.
The project will target coastal cities which are in danger of becoming partially submerged within the next ten years due to the rising of sea levels.
UN-Habitat Executive Director Maimunah Mohd Sharif said that ‘sustainable floating cities are a part of the arsenal of climate adaptation strategies available to us. Instead of fighting with water, let us learn to live in harmony with it.’
The city consists of several floating platforms housing living spaces, research facilities as well as community centres. They would all be connected through a network of bridges, with the initial proposal set to accommodate 12,000 people.
However, the city is designed to expand and could thus welcome as many as 100,000 residents. Safety and sustainability are of course two of the main focuses of the project, as the floating architecture needs to be designed to withstand all sorts of natural disasters.

We have just received our first glimpses at Emma Muscat’s rehearsals for her performance of ‘I Am What I Am’ for the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest in Turin.
@eurovision Giving us all the sparkles ✨🎹🇲🇹 @EmmaMuscat used her piano skills and, of course, her vocal skills during the first rehearsal at #Eurovision #Eurovision2022 #EurovisionTikTok
Emma will seemingly be accompanied by four dancers as she dons a sparkly dress covered in diamond shaped designs.
She is also set to kick off her performance starting from her piano, a side of Emma we’ve gotten accustomed to seeing as she serenades the audience with her voice. But things are set to get more lively as Emma joins her dancers to bust some moves.

The entire stage glows gold throughout the performance, and Emma seems utterly ready to show what Malta has to offer for this year’s edition of the beloved competition.
Emma will be performing during the second semi-final, hoping to earn a spot in the finale. Malta is currently in 24th place amongst the other contestants in the bidding polls as tho who is fated to win, with Ukraine at the very top followed by Italy.
