OSLO, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Finland's government plans to hold a news conference later on Tuesday regarding the sudden outage of a gas pipeline connecting Finland and Estonia, public broadcaster YLE and daily Helsingin Sanomat reported on Tuesday. The Finnish prime minister's office was not immediately available for comment when contacted by Reuters. The Balticconnector link was shut early on Sunday on concerns that gas was leaking from a hole in the 77-km (48 miles) pipeline.

CNN —A deputy mayor in Helsinki is facing possible legal action after being caught spray-painting graffiti with a friend. Paavo Arhinmäki, deputy mayor responsible for culture and leisure in the Finnish capital, issued a statement Saturday admitting that he and a friend had been caught by security guards after painting inside a train tunnel leading to the city’s Vuosaari harbor. “Now there is still on-going police investigation for legal action and its consequences,” the spokesperson said in a statement. “The costs of cleaning up are collected from the perpetrators after the police investigation is done,” they added. Meanwhile, Finnish newspaper Helsingin Sanomat published a photo of the graffiti and tweeted about the incident.

REUTERS/Anne KauranenHELSINKI, May 3 (Reuters) - Finland's largest daily Helsingin Sanomat on Wednesday took its struggle against Russian media restrictions to a popular online videogame to mark world press freedom day.

Gamers are using a secret room in "CS:GO" to share news about the Ukraine war with Russian players. A Finish newspaper designed the room to bypass Russian censorship and get the news to citizens. Players can find the secret room and read information about Russia's shocking war crimes and high casualties in the ongoing conflict. A map shows Russia's civilian targets in the war, mass graves in Bucha and Irpin, 70,000 Russian deaths in the war so far, and more. They wrote that while "Countless Russians are unaware of what is happening in Ukraine," the secret room is where "they are forced to see the truth with their own eyes."
London (CNN Business) City dwellers are used to switching between apps to decide the best way to get from A to B. "Whim's sole purpose is to compete against car ownership," CEO Sampo Hietanen tells CNN Business. If Whim can persuade users to trade their car keys for a single app offering multiple transport options, the environmental impact could be enormous, says Hietanen. The ticket also offers car rental from €55 ($65) per day. According to Whim, public transport and micromobility are the most popular ways to travel using the app.
