Un barchino con otto migranti a bordo avrebbe tentato di raggiungere la riva a forte velocità davanti allo stabilimento El Tiburon Beach, a Santa Margherita di Pula, nel Cagliaritano. L’episodio è avvenuto intorno alle 15 e, secondo quanto riferito da alcuni testimoni, si è concluso con una rapida inversione di rotta dell’imbarcazione dopo la reazione dei bagnanti.
Il conducente, mentre il natante si avvicinava alla battigia, avrebbe poi puntato nuovamente verso il largo dirigendosi a tutta velocità in direzione di Cagliari. La scena ha suscitato preoccupazione tra le persone presenti in spiaggia, anche alla luce del precedente incidente avvenuto a Tuerredda lo scorso 16 agosto, quando una turista era stata travolta da un’imbarcazione con a bordo migranti mentre faceva il bagno. Nell’occasione la donna aveva riportato gravi ferite ed era stata soccorsa dopo aver rischiato di annegare. Per quell’episodio era stato arrestato uno scafista algerino di 28 anni.
“Si è rischiata l’ennesima tragedia sulle coste di Santa Margherita”, denuncia Massimo Vargiu, segretario provinciale del Siulp. “Siamo sconcertati che imbarcazioni a motore riescano ad arrivare fino a riva con il motore acceso. Evidentemente sulle nostre coste non c’è nessun controllo. I cittadini in vacanza o al mare devono sentirsi sicuri e tutelati”.
Secondo i dati citati dal sindacato, nella sola giornata di oggi sono stati registrati una trentina di sbarchi nel Sulcis e nel Sud Sardegna, in particolare nella zona di Porto Pino.

SE NON TRADIVA LA SUA CULTURA POLITICA – E NON HA FATTO. LE OCCASIONI MANCATE DELLA SOVRANISTA DELLA GARBATELLA (e non si trovi giustificazioni nella cosiddetta “realpolitik” perché questa è soltanto un momentaneo compromesso in circostanze date, mentre qui stiamo parlando di trasformismo ovvero di ripudio della “destra sociale” per abbracciare il conservatorismo liberale: né più ne meno di ciò che a suo tempo fece Gianfranco Fini). L.C.
Travaglio non è simpaticissimo, ma quando ha (sostanzialmente) ragione, ha ragione (Massimo Maraviglia):
Quattro anni fa Giorgia Meloni aveva una grande occasione: spogliarsi degli abiti di capofazione per indossare quelli di rappresentante di tutti e conquistare consensi fuori dal suo recinto, senza recidere le radici del suo passato. Che non è il fascismo del Duce, come troppi superficialmente dicono, ma la destra sociale, legalitaria, multipolare, eurocritica e antiamericana: quella che, oltre a tanti brutti ceffi e fenomeni da baraccone, affascinava anche Paolo Borsellino e tuttora vanta intellettuali irregolari come Cardini, Tarchi, Veneziani, Buttafuoco, Foa.
La Meloni avrebbe potuto scegliersi un ministro della Giustizia borselliniano, anziché il berlusconiano Nordio. Mettere agli Esteri e alla Difesa due uomini del dialogo col Sud e l’Est del mondo, anziché i pappagalli Nato Tajani e Crosetto. Piazzare all’Economia e al Lavoro esponenti della destra sociale anziché il rigorista Giorgetti e l’imbarazzante Calderone. Difendere e magari affinare il reddito di cittadinanza, anziché gettare sul lastrico centinaia di migliaia di famiglie. Tassare i profitti extra di banche, assicurazioni, Big Pharma, Big Tech e Big Oil e combattere l’evasione, rastrellando risorse per politiche espansive su investimenti, salari, caro-energia, sanità e lotta all’immigrazione irregolare. Far funzionare la giustizia anziché sfasciarla e perder tempo (e schiantarsi) sulla separazione delle carriere. Infilarsi nelle spaccature di un’Ue sfarinata per fare alleanze pragmatiche con chiunque, a destra (Orbán) e a sinistra (Sánchez), mettesse in dubbio gli euro-dogmi dell’austerità, del bellicismo, del riarmo, della russofobia e della sudditanza a Kiev e a Tel Aviv. Aiutare gli ucraini e i russi, gli israeliani e i palestinesi con l’unica opzione utile: i negoziati, candidando Roma come campo neutro per ospitarli. Sfruttare l’amicizia con Trump per dirgli Sì quando ci conveniva – cioè sulla fine della guerra ucraina e dello sterminio a Gaza – e No sui dazi, il 5% di Pil alla Nato, il suo Gnl al quadruplo del prezzo russo, gli acquisti di armi da regalare a Zelensky, le aggressioni al Venezuela e all’Iran: invece gli ha detto No quando doveva dire Sì e viceversa.

MEPs are pushing for an EU solidarity mechanism to help patients pay for treatment abroad, arguing that financial barriers are preventing Europeans from exercising rights they have had on paper for more than a decade.
The calls came as Parliament discussed a report commissioned to inform its own-initiative report on modernising patients’ rights in cross-border healthcare. The study found that cross-border care accounts for just 0.004% of EU public health expenditure, despite patients continuing to face upfront costs, complex reimbursement procedures and prior-authorisation requirements.
Tomislav Sokol (EPP, Croatia) called the proposed solidarity mechanism a potential “game changer” for vulnerable patients, but challenged Parliament to spell out how it would work.
“How would it work in practice? How would it be financed? Would this be part of the EU budget?” Sokol asked. “We need to know it now, so that we can also use this in negotiations on the future EU budget, in the next MFF.”
In the news feeds, Libya and Sudan exist as separate storylines: one is remembered when the conversation turns to migrants, the other when bombs fall on Khartoum. Two wars. Two countries. Four thousand kilometers of coastline that never meet, and a thousand kilometers of shared desert that connects everything. On the map of real influence, […]
A suspected underworld revenge attack linked to fugitive drug trafficker Jos Leijdekkers, known as “Bolle Jos,” left a security guard dead and two police officers wounded in the quiet Dutch village of Overasselt in the early hours of Sept. 1, 2026. Surveillance cameras captured vans full of masked men carrying assault rifles during the attack, which is raising fears that Netherlands is devolving into a narco-state.

Around 4:00 a.m., two vans pulled up and a large group approached a farmhouse previously tied to a drug lab. The surveillance footage shows the group approaching a parked car with its interior light on. Five shots were then fired, according to the Dutch police report on the incident.
A 51-year-old man from nearby Wijchen, hired as a security guard after an earlier attack on the property, was murdered. Neighbors reported hearing dozens of shots, with one neighbor telling Dutch media he heard 37 shots before police arrived.
The first officers responding to a report of a suspicious situation came under immediate fire. Colleagues dragged the wounded officers to safety while still being shot at. One officer initially suffered life-threatening injuries; both were later reported out of danger.
Police launched a nationwide manhunt involving helicopters, dogs, special intervention units, and roadblocks on the A73 and A76. Warning shots were fired during searches of cornfields, gardens, and other sites. The operation led to the arrest of 34 suspects at multiple locations, including a cornfield near the scene, Nijmegen train station, and highways in Limburg.
The suspects included Dutch, Belgian, French, and Algerian nationals. Weapons, vehicles, and data carriers were seized. A large-scale investigation team (TGO) has now been formed, with all detainees remaining in custody.
The incredible violence has sparked reactions all the way from local police officials to the country’s justice minister.
Deputy Police Chief of the East Netherlands unit Jolanda Aalbers described the night as “indescribable.”
“For colleagues this is a truly intense incident. Colleagues were wounded and they were brought to safety by other colleagues at risk to their own lives. It was a real act of heroism. We are grateful that the wounded colleagues are out of life-threatening condition.”
Justice Minister David van Weel condemned “horrible violence” and said “we do not tolerate this,” according to Dutch news outlet NOS.
He also described the scale of the violence as “unprecedented” for the Netherlands.
“The fact that you have hordes of dozens of young people walking through the streets of a village and immediately opening fire on the police is unprecedented and new,” he said. He spoke of a suspected criminal settling of accounts involving international drug cartels that operate across borders.
Deputy Chief Prosecutor Monique Vinkesteijn called it a “long-running conflict.”
She said that suspects face charges including murder or manslaughter, attempted murder, conspiracy, and preparation of a kidnapping. She described ten different crime scenes, underlining the sprawling and complex nature of the crime. She said investigators were working to link each suspect to specific locations.
Mayor Joerie Minses of Heumen municipality, which includes Overasselt, called the violence “un-Dutch,” “completely unacceptable,” and something that “goes beyond all bounds.”
“What happened last night does not fit Overasselt,” he stated.
He now says he may want to close the farmhouse entirely, which has a documented history of trouble.
In 2019, a professional drug lab was found in shipping containers near the farmhouse after a fire. In 2024, armed men were found at the gate of the house.
In July 2025, an attacker fired at least 25 rounds from an AK-47-style rifle at the house, resulting in the conviction of a 21-year-old from Amsterdam. Residents then hired private security.
What sparked the latest attack?
There are now questions about what prompted such a large-scale attack from the drug gangs. Dutch media, citing police sources, linked the attack to a dispute over an 812-kilogram cocaine shipment seized on Aug. 29 at the French-Spanish border. The drugs were in a Dutch-registered truck traveling from Africa via Portugal.
The masked gang members may have been seeking a missing portion of the load or confronting an intermediary connected to Leijdekkers’ network. Leijdekkers, one of the Netherlands’ most-wanted fugitives, has been convicted in both the Netherlands and Belgium, including a 14-year sentence in the Belgian Costa case involving Antwerp port cocaine trafficking. He faces decades in prison for other crimes as well. He is believed to be in West Africa. Police have not officially confirmed the Leijdekkers link.
