The new law’s resolutions could potentially have far-reaching effects on those running alojamento local (AL) properties – including Portugal’s world-renowned hostels. AL properties outside of low-density areas will also see their current property taxes increase, and be subject to a new tax starting at 15%, known as CEAL. The new legislation threatens the future of all hostels in Portugal, says Miguel Santos, board member at the Associação Hostels de Portugal (AHdP) and owner of a Lisbon hostel.

Sept 29 (Reuters) - Poland's biggest e-commerce company Allegro (ALEP.WA) trimmed its full-year guidance for its core Polish market on Thursday for the second time this year, as it anticipates high inflation could lower demand. Allegro expects year-on-year revenue growth of 23%-26% compared to 25%-30% previously, while adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) are expected to rise by between 10%-12% versus a previous range of 10% and 15%. Allegro said the worsening outlook for economic growth, sustained inflation and concerns over energy security raised the risk of reduced consumer demand during the peak Christmas trading period. Allegro's second-quarter revenue and adjusted EBITDA was in line with preliminary results announced last month at 2.21 billion zlotys ($445.03 million) and 484.1 million zlotys, respectively.

Forțele aeriene siriene au folosit clor într-un atac asupra oraşului Saraqeb din 2018, arată un raport al Organizației pentru Interzicerea Armelor Chimice (OAIC) după finalizarea unei anchete. Echipa de anchetatori OAIC „a ajuns la concluzia că unităţi ale Forţelor aeriene siriene au utilizat arme chimice pe 4 februarie 2018 la Saraqeb", un oraş aflat la 50 km sud de Alep, a precizat organizaţia într-un comunicat, potrivit Agerpres. Însărcinată să-i identifice pe autorii atacurilor chimice, echipa de anchetă a OIAC, cu sediul la Haga, a stabilit „că există motive rezonabile de a crede” că un elicopter al Forţelor armate siriene „a lovit estul Saraqeb cu cel puţin un cilindru”. Persoanele rănite au prezentat simptome de otrăvire chimică, inclusiv greață, iritație a ochilor, dificultăți de respirație, tuse și respirație șuierătoare, scrie Reuters. Guvernul sirian neagă orice implicare în atacuri chimice, afirmând că a trecut toate stocurile sale de arme chimice sub supervizare internaţională în termenii unui acord încheiat în 2013.
