The world's first fully working "sand battery", which can store green power for months at a time, has been installed by Finnish researchers.

The developers said this could solve the problem of year-round supply, a major issue for green energy.

Using low-grade sand, the device is charged up with heat made from cheap electricity from solar or wind.

The sand stores the heat at around 500C, which can then warm homes in winter when energy is more expensive.

Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons for the sake of world peace. We have then been knocking on NATO’s door, but it never opened. Security vacuum led to Russian aggression. The world owes Ukraine security and we ask states to decide which security guarantees they are ready to provide.

25 April 2022

One of Vladimir Putin's justifications for his invasion of Ukraine was that Kyiv might attempt to join NATO and become a threat on Russia's border. That's despite membership of the western military alliance being a distant and uncertain possibility for Ukraine. But NATO could expand to other countries in the region. The war is giving Finland and Sweden a reason to rethink their long-held neutral status.

RUSSIA - Thousands take train from Russia to Finland to escape sanctions | Al Jazeera

 

9 March 2022

 

With flights to Europe suspended, Russians who want to leave the country have few options. One route that is still available is the train to Finland. Around 5,000 Russians have made the journey in the last 10 days. As Al Jazeera's Paul Rhys reports from Helsinki, some do not know if they will return home. 

 

Поскольку рейсы в Европу приостановлены, у россиян, желающих покинуть страну, мало вариантов. Один маршрут, который все еще доступен, - это поезд в Финляндию. Около 5000 россиян совершили путешествие за последние 10 дней. Как сообщает корреспондент Al Jazeera Пол Рис из Хельсинки, некоторые не знают, вернутся ли домой.

GENEVA — The United Nations human rights office said on Tuesday that it had verified 1,335 civilian casualties in Ukraine, including 474 killed and 861 injured, since Russia’s invasion began on Feb. 24.

But the civilian toll was incomplete pending corroboration of reports, it said in a statement: “This concerns, for example, the towns of Volnovakha, Mariupol, Izium where there are allegations of hundreds of civilian casualties.”

LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Wednesday there were few things more depraved than the targeting of vulnerable and defenceless people, after Ukraine accused Russia of bombing a children's hospital in the port city of Mariupol.

"There are few things more depraved than targeting the vulnerable and defenceless," Johnson said on Twitter.

 

Google searches for “visa” and “political asylum” spiked in Russia as more Russians want to flee their country.

Train ticket price to Finland reaches nearly $10k and there is almost no flight going to the West. https://t.co/n2oAd4osm7
