9 Everyday Signs Your Mental Load Is Quietly Taking Over New

9 Everyday Signs Your Mental Load Is Quietly Taking Over

1. Small decisions suddenly feel strangely exhaustingChoosing what to cook, wear or answer first should be manageable, yet every option feels like another demand. This can happen when your mind is already holding too many unfinished tasks and unresolved concerns.Reduce unnecessary choices for a while. Repeat easy meals, prepare clothes the night before or choose three priorities each morning. Simplifying is not failure; it creates breathing room for decisions that genuinely need your attention.2. You keep forgetting ordinary everyday detailsYou walk into a room and forget why, miss an appointment or reread the same message without absorbing it. Occasional forgetfulness is normal, but it often becomes more noticeable when attention is divided across too many responsibilities.Instead of relying on memory alone, create one trusted place for reminders. A single notebook or phone list is more useful than scattered notes. The goal is not perfect organisation; it is giving your mind fewer things to carry.3. Rest leaves you feeling guilty instead of restoredYou finally sit down, but your thoughts immediately produce a list of everything you should be doing. Physically, you have stopped. Mentally, you are still working, monitoring and judging yourself.Try giving rest a clear boundary: twenty minutes without chores, messages or planning. When guilt appears, notice it without obeying it. Rest does not have to be earned by reaching complete exhaustion. It supports your ability to return to life with more patience and perspective.4. Minor interruptions trigger surprisingly strong irritationA slow website, a simple question or a misplaced object can provoke more anger than the situation seems to deserve. The interruption may not be the real problem; it may simply be the final demand landing on an already crowded mind.Before reacting, create a brief pause. Unclench your jaw, lower your shoulders and name what is actually overwhelming you. Recognising the larger pressure helps you respond to the present moment rather than releasing accumulated frustration onto someone nearby.5. You procrastinate even on tasks you valueProcrastination is not always indifference. Sometimes a meaningful task feels impossible because it contains too many hidden decisions: where to begin, how well to do it and what might happen if you fail.Shrink the starting point until it feels almost unimportant. Open the document, write one sentence or spend five minutes gathering materials. A smaller entry point reduces the emotional weight of beginning. Momentum often arrives after action, not before it.6. Your free time disappears into numb scrollingYou reach for your phone intending to relax, then look up much later feeling neither entertained nor rested. Endless scrolling can offer temporary escape because it asks almost nothing from you, but it may also prevent the deeper recovery you needed.Before opening an app, ask what you want: distraction, connection or rest. That answer can guide a better choice, such as messaging a friend, watching one planned episode or spending ten quiet minutes away from stimulation.7. You avoid messages from people you care aboutA thoughtful message arrives, and instead of feeling connected, you feel another obligation. You postpone replying because you want to respond properly, then the growing delay adds guilt and makes the task feel even heavier.Connection does not always require a polished answer. A brief message such as “I saw this and care; I will reply when I have more space” can protect the relationship without pretending you have unlimited energy. Honest communication is often kinder than silent perfectionism.8. Your inner voice becomes harsher under pressureWhen your capacity is stretched, ordinary mistakes can trigger severe self-criticism: “I am useless,” “I ruin everything” or “I should handle this better.” These statements turn a difficult moment into a verdict about your character.Replace the verdict with a precise description. Instead of “I am failing,” try “I missed one deadline while managing several demands.” Accuracy is not making excuses. It separates what happened from who you are, making it easier to repair the problem without crushing yourself.9. You cannot identify what you actually needAfter spending days responding to other people, deadlines and practical demands, even the question “What would help?” can feel impossible to answer. Your own signals may have been pushed aside for so long that they become difficult to hear.Begin with the body and the next hour. Are you hungry, tense, lonely, overstimulated or tired? Choose one small response rather than solving your entire life. If overwhelm persists or disrupts daily functioning, consider speaking with a qualified mental health professional.

Inquest rules three sisters found off Brighton died by suicide

Updated 12:09 8 Oct 2026 GMT+1Published 11:56 8 Oct 2026 GMT+1breakingJane Adetoro, Christina Walter and Rebecca Walter were all pulled from the sea after visiting the lake where their mum diedWarning: This article contains discussion of suicide which some readers may find distressing.The bodies of three sisters who were pulled from the sea in Brighton had taken their own lives, an inquest has heard.Sussex Police identified the women as sisters Jane Adetoro, 36, Christina Walter, 32, and Rebecca Walter, 31, after their bodies were pulled from the water near Madeira Drive on 13 May.An inquest has heard how the day before, they had visited the lake where their mother had died in Birmingham years earlier.AdvertThe body of Janice Adetoro, the mother of the three victims, was recovered from a lake in 2010.They arrived at Linton Walk, Birmingham, near to Brookvale Park Lake, at 11.36pm on May 11 and were picked up to return to the flat they lived in together in Greenford, west London, at 1.28am on May 12.Police at the scene (Charlotte Coney/Getty Images)On the evening of May 12, they took a pre-booked taxi to Brighton and arrived near the seafront at 10.21pm. They are thought to have last been seen alive on CCTV from the beach at 2.42am on May 13.Sussex Police said there was no evidence to suggest criminality or that anyone else was involved.After the incident, detectives said they were working to gather the full facts and circumstances around their deaths, with hundreds of hours of CCTV footage being reviewed and inquiries made to establishments around the beach area.Ms Adetoro had been brought to shore by an RNLI crew and declared dead at the scene on the morning of May 13, the inquest was told.Christina Walters was recovered from the sea by an RNLI lifeboat, and Rebecca Walters was washed on to the shore of Brighton beach.

Brandon McGirl’s 1,116-Pound Tuna Shatters New Hampshire Record by Over 150 Pounds New

Brandon McGirl’s 1,116-Pound Tuna Shatters New Hampshire Record by Over 150 Pounds

See more of our coverage in your search results. A New Hampshire fisherman caught the state’s largest bluefin tuna weighing over 1,100 pounds — smashing a record that had stood for more than a decade.Brandon McGirl was hoping to reel in anything when he boarded the Out of Line, a Savage Charters NH boat captained by Jamie Savage, on Saturday for an overnight fishing trip out of Rye Harbor on the New Hampshire Seacoast, WMUR reported.“It was very difficult conditions to try and fish. It was a little bit rougher than we were hoping for,” McGirl told the outlet.Brandon McGirl and Captain Jamie Savage of Savage Charters NH landed a 1,116-pound bluefin tuna in New Hampshire, smashing the state record. ABC/WHAS11After hours on the open water — with almost nothing to show for their effort — the crew was gearing up to call it a night when, out of nowhere, McGirl’s reel began clicking.“They never come when you expect them to come,” McGirl said.The crew chased the fish for about a mile before finally getting it alongside the boat during the grueling struggle.With no way to get it on deck, they towed the fish back toward the harbor, where they lifted the beast from the water.“We lifted it out of the water and immediately knew it was way bigger than what we thought and bigger than anything either of us had seen before,” Savage said.The catch turned out to be a monster bluefin tuna that tipped the scales at 1,116 pounds — more than 150 pounds heavier than the previous New Hampshire record, set in 2013, the outlet reported.The men chased the fish for about a mile before finally getting it alongside the boat during the grueling struggle. ABC/WHAS11McGirl could barely believe what they had reeled in.“If you tuna fish for long time, to catch a 1,000-pound fish, is, I mean, it’s something that you dream of,” he told the outlet.A photo of the catch shows the tuna nearly as long as both men are tall, so big it barely fits in the boat.The record-breaking catch even drew congratulations from Gov. Kelly Ayotte the next day.“Now THAT is a catch,” Ayotte wrote on Facebook, sharing a link to WMUR’s report.The catch turned out to be a monster bluefin tuna that tipped the scales at 1,116 pounds — more than 150 pounds heavier than the previous New Hampshire record, set in 2013. Facebook/Bikes & BitesWhile the meat of the fish will be sold, the tuna’s tail will stay behind at the harbor, a souvenir of the record-setting day. ABC/WHAS11The catch also came close to a national mark. The largest bluefin tuna on record in US waters weighed 1,142 pounds, 12 ounces, and was caught off Block Island, Rhode Island, by J. Dempsey in September 1981 — about 27 pounds more than McGirl’s fish, according to On The Water.The tuna will be sold and could be shipped as far as Japan, but its tail will stay behind at the harbor, a souvenir of the record-setting day, WMUR reported.McGirl told Foster’s Daily Democrat that he’ll be paid by check later and doesn’t yet know what the fish will fetch.The record comes after fishermen in San Diego caught a nearly 500-pound bluefin tuna last month — and the largest bluefin ever caught on rod and reelThe beast weighed 446 pounds — with an estimated weight of 500 pounds whole.

Brighton Sisters’ Final Journey Revealed as Coroner Rules on Deaths New

Brighton Sisters’ Final Journey Revealed as Coroner Rules on Deaths

Family handout photo issued by Sussex Police of sisters with their father Joseph, (left to right) Jane Adetoro, 36, Christina Walters, 32 and Rebecca Walters, 31 (Picture: Family Handout/PA) Three sisters who drowned in the sea near Brighton beach died in a suicide pact a day after visiting the lake where their mother took her own life, a coroner has ruled. Jane Adetoro, 36, Christina Walters, 32, and Rebecca Walters, 31, from west London, were pulled from the water off the Sussex coast early on May 13. The siblings, described as ‘inseparable’ after their tragic deaths, never got over the loss of their mother, relatives said. All three had taken a taxi from their home in west London to the Birmingham street where their mother lived on May 11. They arrived at Linton Walk, near to Brookvale Park Lake, at 11.36pm and were picked up to return to the flat they lived in together in Greenford at 1.28am on May 12. Detective Chief Inspector Mark Cullimore told their inquest at Woodvale Coroner’s Court in Brighton that there was no CCTV to see what the women had been doing in the time they were in Birmingham. On the evening of May 12, they took a pre-booked taxi to Brighton and arrived near the seafront at 10.21pm. They are thought to have last been seen alive on CCTV from the beach at 2.42am on May 13. Ms Adetoro was brought to shore by an RNLI crew and declared dead at the scene on the morning of May 13, the inquest heard. Christina Walters was recovered from the sea by an RNLI lifeboat, and Rebecca Walters was washed on to the shore of Brighton beach. They were also declared dead that morning by paramedics. The extensive emergency response to the incident (Picture: PA) Concluding the inquest into their deaths, senior coroner Penelope Schofield told the court on Thursday: ‘On May 13, in hours of darkness, they entered the sea at Brighton, they could not swim and sea conditions were adverse.’ A post-mortem found all three women had drowned and cited no evidence of any drugs or alcohol in their bodies, and no evidence to suggest they had been subject to violence. The coroner concluded that the three sisters intended to end their lives. ‘These three sisters lived very secluded lives, they were incredibly private, we don’t know why they took this course of action or indeed why they chose to do it in Brighton,’ Ms Schofield told the court. ‘It is not for the court to speculate and sadly these reasons may never be known.’ The inquest heard Christina Walters suffered from anxiety and depression since her mother’s death, but Ms Adetoro was not registered with a doctor, and Rebecca Walters’ records had nothing of note, Mr Cullimore said. Speaking to reporters after the sisters’ deaths, their aunt Ajike Johnson revealed they never got over the trauma of their mother’s death. Their mum, Janice Adetoro, suffered with mental health issues and walked into a park lake close to her home at the time in the West Midlands. The sisters’ aunt Ajike Johnson – or Aunt Jik as her nieces called her – told the Daily Mail the tragedy ‘traumatised the girls’, adding: ‘They never recovered.’ Their cousin, Natalie Walters-Daniel, also said there was a ‘deeper meaning’ behind the sisters’ journey to Birmingham. She told the Sunday Times that her cousins were 20, 16, and 15 when their mum died. ‘To lose their mum at the ages that they were, it was the crucial stages of growing up and becoming young women,’ she said. ‘The years where a mother’s presence and guidance and reassurance and love should be, they didn’t receive that. ‘And for them to come to Birmingham, to take that moment that they did within the lake and also to see their mother, I think that there is definitely a connection there.’ Need support?

Siniša Mali pod lupom zbog minusa od 106,2 milijarde za mesec New

Siniša Mali pod lupom zbog minusa od 106,2 milijarde za mesec

Pre nego što su postali bivši predsednik države i tehnički ministar finansija Aleksandar Vučić i Siniša Mali nisu dangubili. Nemilice su, poput pijanih milionera, trošili javni novac i samo u septembru u državnoj kasi napravili minus od čak 106,2 milijarde dinara, za osam milijardi veći nego u prvih osam meseci ove godine, ekskluzivno otkriva Radar.Ministarstvo finansija 5. oktobra pohvalilo se da je deficit na kraju avgusta bio oko 838 miliona evra, navodno za čak 664 miliona manji od planiranog, dok će zvanične podatke za septembar, u kom su rashodi bili za 903 miliona evra veći od prihoda objaviti posle zatvaranja biračkih mestaIako će zvanično ti podaci biti objavljeni tek početkom novembra, iz dobro obaveštenih izvora saznajemo da su prošlog meseca rashodi države bili za 903 miliona evra veći od njenih prihoda. Pride bi minus bio skoro milijardu da baš u septembru, gle čuda, prvi put otkako posluje u Srbiji, deo nagomilanog profita iz prethodnog perioda državi nije uplatio Serbija Ziđin koper, čiji je većinski vlasnik kineski Ziđin internešnel majning kompani limitid.Foto:Dragan Mujan/Nova.rsKada i zvanično budu objavljeni, desetak dana nakon zatvaranja birališta, ovi podaci znatno će pokvariti skoro idiličnu sliku o stanju javnih finansija. Tim pre što se 5. oktobra, dan pre nego što će ovaj broj Radara otići u štampu, Ministarstvo finansija pohvalilo da je deficit u avgustu bio nepunih 0,6 milijardi dinara, a posle prvih osam meseci 98,4 milijarde, navodno za čak 78 milijardi manji od planiranog.Uz malu pomoć kineskih „prijatelja“ i Narodne banke SrbijeTo drugim rečima znači da je formacijski najodgovorniji, tehnički ministar finansija Siniša Mali, uz nesebičnu pomoć svog „šefa“ Aleksandra Vučića, koji već mesecima šparta po Srbiji i u kampanji za parlamentarne izbore obećava „kule i gradove“, uspeo da za samo mesec dana taj minus uveća čak 180 puta, sa pet na 903 miliona evra. Bukvalno je vlast svakog dana, računajući i vikende, u državnoj kasi pravila manjak od 30 miliona evra.180 putaili sa 0,6 milijardi na čak 106,2 milijarde dinara povećan je budžetski deficit za samo mesec dana. Nikada ranije u septembru nije bio ni izbliza toliki kao ove godinePosledično, deficit je sa avgustovskih 98,4 milijarde već u septembru skočio na 204,6 milijardi dinara. Tome su presudno kumovali transferi organizacijama obaveznog socijalnog osiguranja od 81,1 milijardu dinara, koliko je isplaćeno za razne vidove jednokratne pomoći, mesec dana uoči najneizvesnijih parlamentarnih izbora u poslednjih 14 godina.Pre samo mesec dana Mali se hvalio da rebalans državne kase za ovu godinu predlaže zato što će, navodno, prihodi biti veći nego što je originalnim budžetom planirano. Istine radi, između septembra prošle i ove godine prihodi su nominalno povećani sa 1,43 na 1,62 milijarde evra ili za 12,8 odsto. Za isti procenat uvećan je i priliv u prvih devet meseci ove u odnosu na isti period prošle godine, sa 13,9 na 15,7 milijardi evra.Grafika: AIPoslanicima u Skupštini, ali i celokupnoj javnosti, međutim, Mali je „glasno“ prećutao da će od prihoda mnogo brže rasti rashodi. U prvih devet meseci država je potrošila 17,5 milijardi evra, za petinu više nego u istom periodu 2025. Pritom, za razliku od javnosti, pa i većine kolega u odlazećoj vladi Đure Macuta, prvi državni blagajnik sigurno zna da je u septembru spiskao 296,6 milijardi dinara ili čak dve i po milijarde evra. I da je Vlada čiji je član potrošila 65,6 odsto više nego u septembru 2025.Dramatičnom rastu deficita presudno su kumovali transferi organizacijama obaveznog socijalnog osiguranja od 81,1 milijardu dinara, koliko je isplaćeno za razne vidove jednokratne pomoći, mesec dana uoči najneizvesnijih parlamentarnih izbora u poslednjih 14 godinaIonako visoka razlika između odliva i priliva u državnu kasu bila bi još izraženija da na njen račun nije legla (ne)očekivana uplata prve dividende po osnovu udela države od 37 odsto u Serbija Ziđin koperu, čiji je većinski vlasnik kineski Ziđin internešnel majning kompani limitid. Ta firma je, saznaje Radar, 24. septembra u budžet uplatila 10,26 milijardi dinara ili oko 87 miliona evra, a Mali od nje pre kraja godine očekuje najmanje još toliko, u optimalnom slučaju ukupno 25 milijardi dinara ili više od 200 miliona evra.Neka se spremi i Beograd na vodiTom „infuzijom“ kineskih partnera, koji su uskočili da popune bar deo ogromne rupe u srpskoj državnoj kasi niko od zvaničnika, uključujući Vučića i Malog, nije se javno pohvalio. Možda i u strahu da bi se neko mogao setiti da upita zašto nikada ranije država kao manjinski partner nije dobila ni cent nagomilane neto dobiti iz prethodnog perioda. A nije da je nije bilo, jer je od 2020. do 2025. Serbija Ziđin koper iskazao profit veći od milijardu i po evra. Da se on ravnomerno i redovno delio u skladu sa vlasničkim udelom, na račun države bi do sada leglo 563 miliona evra.Beograd na vodi Foto: Shutterstock/PedjoniDa je đavo odneo šalu svedoče i tvrdnje dobro upućenih sagovornika da u Ministarstvu finansija računaju na još jednu uplatu i od miljenika ovdašnje vlasti, Beograda na vodi. Od te firme, u kojoj je država takođe manjinski vlasnik, očekuje se da do kraja godine u budžet uplati bar još 10 miliona evra.Pre mesec dana ministar finansija tvrdio je da rebalans predlaže zato što će prihodi biti veći od planiranih. Problem je što su od početka godine oni uvećani za 12,8, a rashodi za 20 odsto. A još veća nevolja je što su između septembra 2025. i 2026. troškovi države povećani čak 65,6 procenataOsim „kineskih prijatelja“, u pomoć kolegama iz Nemanjine 11 uskočila je i NBS, koja je 18. avgusta u budžet uplatila 33,7 milijardi dinara, odnosno 70 odsto viška prihoda po završnom računu za 2025. Dan kasnije javnost je o tome obavestila guvernerka Jorgovanka Tabaković. „Ja sam zvala Sinišu. Aman, bre, Siniša, kad ćeš da ti prebacim ove pare? ‘Neka, neka, neka ima’. I onda sam juče napravila iznenađenje i prebacila 33 milijarde, što da stoji kod nas ono što pripada budžetu“, rekla je ona.Najgore tek slediPoređenja radi, NBS je 2020. u budžet uplatila 45 miliona, tri godine kasnije upola manje, a u 2022. ni evro, a ove i prošle godine je Vladi obezbedila finansijsku infuziju od po skoro 290 miliona evra. Da nije bilo uplata NBS i Ziđina minus u državnoj kasi bi već sada premašio 2,1 milijardu evra. A od 2021. naovamo nijednom na kraju septembra nije bio veći od 785 miliona. Na stranu što je posle prvih devet meseci državna kasa 2022. bila u plusu 900 miliona, a dve godine kasnije višak je bio 1,2 milijarde evra.Od 2020. do 2025. Serbija Ziđin koper je iskazao ukupnu neto dobit veću od milijardu i po evra. Da se ona ravnomerno delila u skladu sa vlasničkim udelom, na račun države bi do sada leglo 563 miliona evraDirektna posledica prekomerne predizborne potrošnje je rast deficita, koji je na kraju septembra 2025. bio podnošljivih 645 miliona, a sada je 2,7 puta veći, čak 1,74 milijarde evra. Poređenja radi, sve do pandemije, kada je vlast i počela da razbacuje nepostojeći novac „iz helikoptera“, u budžetu Srbije na kraju septembra nije bilo minusa. Naprotiv, uvek je bio u plusu, koji je u 2016. bio oko 220 miliona, naredne godine rekordnih 550 miliona, a u 2018. i 2019. oko 420 miliona evra.Nacionalni stadion Foto: L.L./ATAImagesPosebno brine što je vlast do sada nastojala da bar 11 meseci stvara privid da su javne finansije u mnogo boljem stanju, da bi onda dodavala gas do daske, kao da je sudnji dan. Po tom „receptu“ sve do kraja novembra 2025. deficit je bio skoro zanemarljivih 678 miliona, a samo u decembru 1,63 milijarde evra. Slično je bilo i 2024, kada je decembarski minus od 1,2 milijarde evra bio duplo veći nego u prethodnih 11 meseci. Šta tek reći za 2023, u kojoj je na kraju novembra manjak u državnoj kasi bio jedva 400 miliona, a samo u poslednjem mesecu 1,1 milijardu evra.Od 2016. pa sve do pandemije, 2020, kada je vlast i počela da razbacuje nepostojeći novac „iz helikoptera“, u budžetu Srbije na kraju septembra nije bilo minusa. Naprotiv, uvek je bio u plusu, od 220 do 550 miliona evra, a ove godine je deficit čak 1,7 milijardi evraSasvim je moguće da ćemo reprizu tog filma gledati bar još jednom. Čak i ako zbog Ekspa 2027, za koji većina objekata mora biti završena do kraja godine, vlast ne potroši ni dinar više nego što je trošila u decembru 2024. ili 2025, ukupan minus u državnoj kasi premašiće tri milijarde evra.I nije isključeno da će, ako se 25. oktobra ništa ne promeni, Mali i dalje tvrditi da nema razloga za brigu i da budžetski prihodi rastu. Za rashode baš ga briga. Njih će ionako neko drugi da plati. A među njima i oni čijim je novcem vlast kroz različite vidove jednokratne pomoći u septembru i pokušala da kupi glasove na predstojećim izborima. I da nastavi po starom.

Maia Sandu dezvăluie planul Rusiei pentru Republica Moldova New

Maia Sandu dezvăluie planul Rusiei pentru Republica Moldova

Rusia a încercat să transforme Republica Moldova într-un al doilea Belarus și să folosească teritoriul statului împotriva Ucrainei și a Uniunii Europene, însă cetățenii au împiedicat realizarea acestui plan prin votul lor, susține Maia Sandu.Președintele Maia Sandu, la Forumul de Securitate avertizat că amenințările Moscovei continuă, inclusiv prin încălcarea spațiului aerian, atacuri asupra infrastructurii și campanii de dezinformare, transmite deschide.md.„Planul Rusiei a fost să transforme Republica Moldova într-un al doilea Belarus și să utilizeze teritoriul nostru împotriva Ucrainei și a Uniunii Europene. Moldovenii au oprit acest plan la alegeri”, a declarat Maia Sandu.Potrivit președintelui, numai în ultimele șapte zile, nouă drone rusești au încălcat spațiul aerian al Republicii Moldova, iar din septembrie au fost înregistrate peste 20 de asemenea incidente, mai multe decât pe parcursul întregului an trecut. Totodată, atacurile Rusiei asupra Ucrainei au provocat poluarea Nistrului și au afectat liniile electrice, cu repercusiuni asupra Republicii Moldova.„Ne confruntăm cu un război care este amenințător de aproape. [...] Așa încearcă Rusia să ajungă în Republica Moldova: prin aer, prin apă și prin rețelele electrice”, a afirmat șeful statului.Maia Sandu a subliniat că aceste amenințări sunt însoțite de propagandă și dezinformare, prin care Moscova încearcă să discrediteze parteneriatele de apărare ale Chișinăului și să reducă sprijinul populației pentru modernizarea Armatei Naționale.„Este un război cognitiv, care atacă mințile cetățenilor noștri. Moscova dorește să discrediteze parteneriatele noastre de apărare și să reducă susținerea cetățenilor pentru modernizarea armatei. O armată slabă este utilă pentru Moscova”, a declarat președintele de peste Prut.Aceast a abordat și problema prezenței militare ruse în regiunea transnistreană. Potrivit Maiei Sandu, Rusia folosește inclusiv temerile legate de o eventuală explozie la depozitul de muniții de la Cobasna pentru a-și justifica menținerea trupelor, deși evaluările tehnice efectuate de autorități indică faptul că o explozie devastatoare nu este posibilă.„Trupele rusești se află la Cobasna din 1992. Au promis să plece încă în 1999, dar sunt tot acolo. Folosesc frica unei explozii la Cobasna pentru asta. Dar am analizat tehnic și o explozie devastatoare nu poate avea loc”, a spus Maia Sandu.Referindu-se la ingerințele electorale, președintele a declarat că Rusia a cheltuit o sumă echivalentă cu două procente din PIB-ul Republicii Moldova pentru a influența alegerile, însă cetățenii au rezistat presiunilor și au ales continuarea parcursului european.Șeful statului a evidențiat și contribuția Republicii Moldova la securitatea regională. De la începutul invaziei ruse în Ucraina, peste un milion de ucraineni au traversat frontiera Republicii Moldova, iar aproximativ 100 de mii și-au găsit refugiu aici.„Dacă iarna va fi din nou grea pentru Ucraina, suntem pregătiți să primim atât de mulți refugiați cât va fi necesar”, a dat asigurări Maia Sandu.Totodată, Republica Moldova a reușit să mențină pacea în regiunea transnistreană și să împiedice utilizarea teritoriului său pentru eludarea sancțiunilor internaționale împotriva Rusiei.Președintele a menționat și cooperarea instituțiilor de drept cu partenerii europeni în combaterea criminalității transfrontaliere, a atacurilor cibernetice și a spălării banilor, precum și participarea militarilor moldoveni la misiuni internaționale de menținere a păcii.Maia Sandu a insistat că apărarea aeriană rămâne o prioritate, iar sprijinul Uniunii Europene, inclusiv prin Instrumentul European pentru Pace, este esențial pentru consolidarea capacităților de apărare.În încheiere, președintele a subliniat că aderarea la Uniunea Europeană reprezintă cea mai importantă garanție pentru securitatea pe termen lung a Republicii Moldova și a cerut ca progresele realizate prin reformele interne să fie reflectate în avansarea procesului de aderare.„O țară mică, la marginea Europei, nu poate ține frontul la nesfârșit fără protecția familiei europene. Moldova în Uniunea Europeană va fi și mai puternică”, a declarat Maia Sandu. Editor : A.R.

Halle Berry’s Daughter Speaks Out on Allegations Involving Her Younger Brother

Updated 08:53 8 Oct 2026 GMT+1Published 08:50 8 Oct 2026 GMT+1Nahla Aubry insists Halle Berry is a 'loving and devoted parent' following the accusationsHalle Berry's 18-year-old daughter has defended her mother, after the actress was accused of physically abusing her youngest son.The 60-year-old Hollywood star is currently embroiled in a custody dispute with her ex-husband Olivier Martinez, who alleged that she attacked their son, Maceo, during an incident on 26 September.Martinez, also 60, was granted a temporary restraining order against Berry on October 1, restricting the time she can spend with their son, who turned 13 earlier this week.Berry has vehemently denied the allegations, and now her eldest child, Nahla Aubry, has weighed in on the situation and has denied it all on behalf of her mum.AdvertThe teenager, whom Berry shares with her former partner Gabriel Aubry, submitted a declaration to Los Angeles Superior Court on 3 October, according to documents obtained by PEOPLE.In the statement, Nahla described her mother as a 'loving and devoted parent' who is 'warm, supportive, and deeply involved'.The former couple are involved in a bitter custody dispute (Jason LaVeris / Contributor / Getty Images)While acknowledging that Berry 'can be strict when necessary', she insisted she had never witnessed any abusive behaviour towards her brother."I never observed anything abusive about her parenting," she wrote.Nahla, who has lived with Maceo for much of his life, explained that Berry had always made an effort to ensure the siblings spent time together, despite their different fathers and custody arrangements."I have never seen my mom hit, slap, choke, grab, or physically abuse Maceo in any way," Nahla said."She consistently provided me with stability, support, guidance, and unconditional love," she added, saying she also did the same for Maceo and supported him and his interests.The teenager also addressed the relationship between Berry and Maceo, explaining that she had often witnessed them playfully wrestling and laughing together.According to Nahla, she had never seen her brother become distressed during these interactions. She also claimed she had never witnessed her mother behaving violently towards anyone.Martinez has made claims about Berry's conduct towards their son (David Livingston / Stringer / Getty Images)The 18-year-old went on to address Martinez's allegations directly, saying she had never seen Berry physically harm Maceo or behave in the manner described in his court filing.Nahla also claimed that, during a phone call with her mother and brother on 29 September, Maceo did not appear distressed.The teenager admitted that learning about the allegations had been particularly difficult, describing herself as 'shocked, very sad, and very upset'.She also expressed frustration towards Martinez, claiming she felt like 'an afterthought' in what she described as his efforts to damage her mother's reputation.Nahla also spoke about her relationship with Maceo, saying she believed he loved their mother and that the pair shared a close bond. However, she acknowledged having witnessed occasions when her younger brother had been disrespectful or aggressive at home.She added that she had not spoken to Maceo since the court proceedings began, as she was unsure what contact was permitted.Nahla said she was concerned about the impact the dispute could have on her brother and his relationship with Berry.Berry is now engaged to a musician, Van Hunt (Photo by Max Cisotti/Dave Benett/WireImage)Her declaration also included allegations about Martinez's past behaviour towards her father, Gabriel Aubry, which have not been established in the current proceedings.As previously reported, Martinez has accused Berry of choking Maceo following an argument while the youngster was using a virtual reality headset.Berry disputes his account, maintaining that the interaction began as playful roughhousing before becoming heated.In a separate court declaration, she stated: "I would never hurt our child."Martinez has since responded to PEOPLE, insisting his actions were motivated solely by concerns for his son's welfare."My paramount concern is and always has been the health, welfare, and safety of our son, Maceo," he said.Berry is seeking to restore the former couple's 50/50 custody arrangement, which was agreed when their divorce was finalised in 2023. The actress previously agreed to pay Martinez $8,000 a month in child support.There was also an additional agreement that she would pay him ‘4.3% of any income she receives above $2,000,000’.The temporary restraining order currently limits her parenting time to specified daytime visits, with another court hearing scheduled for 16 October.Featured Image Credit: Presley Ann/Getty Images for Fortune's Most Powerful Women Summit/Karwai Tang/WireImageTopics: Halle Berry, Parenting, Celebrity, Domestic Abuse
