The President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola has recently launched the ‘Generators of Hope’ campaign to help Ukraine with power generators in yet another push by the Maltese MEP and the EU, to help those suffering from the war.

Posting on her socials, Roberta Metsola described U2’s Bono as “the man who first shook the world in concerts and then into action.” She explained that Bono is a global campaigner for the newly established #GeneratorsofHope initiative for Ukraine.

The campaign calls on cities to donate power generators and transformers to help Ukrainians get through the harsh winter ahead.

These generators will help to keep essential facilities in the country running, providing energy to hospitals, schools, water supply facilities, relief centres, shelters, phone masts and more.

As a result of Russia’s war against Ukraine more than half of Ukraine’s electricity network has been damaged or destroyed, leaving millions of Ukrainians without electricity.

It seems that Sunday will not be the last time Malta will have to endure stormy weather conditions, with local weather page ‘Aġġornament tat-Temp’ forecasting an even bigger storm on Tuesday.

On Sunday, the Maltese Islands were hit with a spell of strong winds, particularly between 1pm and 6.30pm, with the strongest wind being registered at gale force 9.

Today’s chance of rain currently stands at 45% with an even bigger storm expected to sweep the Maltese Islands on Tuesday as a cold front continues to hit the country. Temperatures are expected to reach highs 17°C and lows of 13°C.

Meanwhile, another weather page ‘It-Temp Madwarna’ has suggested that today will be relatively clear, with a storm to hit the country late at night as chance of rain stands at 80%.

Malta’s Meteorological Office has corroborated such claims, with reports of ‘Mainly Cloudy‘ weather on Monday and ‘Thundery Showers‘ on Tuesday.

Are you ready for this weather?

Due to the expenses associated with the treatment, Cheyenne said that she and her family could not have undergone it all without the aid of the Malta Community Chestfund. Now, as Istrina rolls around, Cheyenne wishes to give back to those who helped her face this massive challenge. 

Speaking to Malta Daily, Cheyenne said: “e.lementi for Istrina is all about giving back. Since e.lementi was developed and created during my stay in hospital, it motivated me to create such a fundraiser to help out and contribute in aid of the Malta Community Chest Fund.”

Germany versus Spain ends in dramatic stalemate

Nov 27 2022 Share

2014 World Cup champions Germany and 2010 World Cup holders Spain ended their much anticipated match in a 1-1 dramatic stalemate. The match was very close between the two teams and highlighted the immense quality both countries have.

The match started with Spain dominating the possession of the ball and Germany focusing more on countering Spain with the likes of Serge Gnabry and Jamal Musiala.

The Germans thought they opened the scoresheet in the 40th minute when towering center back Antonio Rudiger managed to head in a wonderful Joshua Kimmich free kick, however it was later ruled out by VAR due to Rudiger being in an offside position.

The opening goal actually came in the 61st minute when Atletico Madrid attacker Alvaro Morata managed to score past German keeper Manuel Neuer to give Spain the deserving lead.

Germany’s all important equalizer occurred in the 82nd minute through a strong strike by Werder Bremen star striker and Germany super sub Niclas Füllkrug, in only the 29-year old’s third appearance for his country.

The Germans will be happier with the result following their shocking defeat to Japan last week, whilst Spain will be hoping for a better performance next time around similar to their 7-0 thrashing of Costa Rica.
