The statement read “Hey guys, we’ve decided to end our romantic relationship but our love for one another as humans is stronger than ever.” Cabello and Mendes started dating back in July 2019, with the couple going public soon after despite rumours of the relationship being a publicity stunt. The two did not only steal the hearts of fans from around the world but also released the hit summer single “Señorita.”

Whatever the future holds for the two remains a mystery, but knowing they will remain friends surely makes the heartbreak a little less painful for fans.

Tunnel projects still running late as traffic congestions worsen

Nov 17 2021

Despite governmental sources stating that the ongoing tunnel projects are nearing completion, the traffic congestions forming on the roads suggests otherwise.

Just 3 days ago, the Malta Independent was informed by an Infrastructure Malta spokesperson that the tunnel works are still ongoing months beyond their initial target dates of completion.

The projects seek to upgrade four of Malta’s main tunnels in Kirkop, Santa Venera, Tal-Qroqq and Ta’Giorni. They kicked off back in August of 2020 and IM predicted the completion date as being June 2021.

Flash forward five months from the set date and the tunnels are not yet complete. The major works, including repairs to tubes and underground networks seem to be finished off. However, the full completion still needs more weeks.

The forming of traffic has prompted many to take to social media and express their concerns as they spend hours after a long day of work stuck in their vehicles.
