Augusztus 5-én immár negyedszer dőlt meg a napi melegrekord Ungváron az idei hónapban. Kárpátalján augusztus eleje óta rendkívüli hőség uralkodik, és sorra születnek az új hőmérsékleti rekordok.
A Kárpátaljai Hidrometeorológiai Központ tájékoztatása szerint:
amelyek mind új napi rekordnak számítanak az adott dátumokra vonatkozó meteorológiai megfigyelések történetében.
Összehasonlításképpen: az augusztus 1-jei legalacsonyabb hőmérséklet 10,1 °C volt 2000-ben, augusztus 2-án 8,6 °C-ot mértek 1946-ban, augusztus 3-án 8,9 °C-ot 1947-ben, míg augusztus 4-én a valaha mért legalacsonyabb érték 6,5 °C volt 1955-ben.
A meteorológusok szerint a hőség továbbra is kitart, ezért továbbra is fokozott óvatosságra intik a lakosságot.

CIVICUS speaks about China’s recently implemented Ethnic Unity Law with Gulchehra Hoja, a correspondent for Reporters Without Borders and a Uyghur activist and journalist known for her reporting on human rights abuses against Uyghur people in China.
Gulchehra Hoja
On 1 July, China’s Law on Promoting Ethnic Unity and Progress came into effect. The law requires state and social bodies to foster a single national identity, gives Mandarin priority in education and government affairs, and can be applied beyond China’s borders to people accused of undermining ethnic unity or inciting separatism. The government says the law is consistent with international practice, but civil society fears it will deepen the forced assimilation of Tibetans and Uyghurs and extend the state’s reach over critics living in other countries.What does the new Ethnic Unity Law state?
This new law means there is one acceptable way to be Chinese and requires every part of society, not just the state, to work towards it. Culture, faith and language become things to be managed rather than rights to be protected.
But none of this is new. The law formalises practices that are already in place and turns repression into official state policy. For years the Chinese government has closed Uyghur-language schools, demolished mosques, imprisoned intellectuals, separated children from their families and sent more than a million Uyghurs and other Turkic peoples into detention camps. Ordinary expressions of Uyghur identity can attract suspicion.
Every government wants security and stability. The question is how those goals are pursued and who ends up defined as a threat. Under this law the answer is anyone whose identity does not fit. The Ethnic Unity Law strengthens Communist Party authority, not minority rights. It tells minorities that loyalty to the Communist Party matters more than their identity and that even the most ordinary parts of life are subject to state control.
Doesn’t China’s constitution protect minority languages and autonomy?
On paper, Article 4 guarantees all ethnic groups the right to use their own languages and preserve their cultures. But there is an enormous gap between what the law says and what happens.
I come from the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. For Beijing, it is a strategic asset that connects China to Central Asia, holds vast natural resources and plays a central role in the country’s long-term economic and security ambitions. But for Uyghurs, it’s our home. It is where generations of our people have lived and built their lives.
The region is officially described as autonomous, but autonomy must include genuine local political participation, real cultural protection and the right to use and teach our language freely. Where those are missing, autonomy exists in name only.
Which communities does the law reach, and how is it enforced?
Uyghurs are the first victims, but we are certainly not the only ones. The law reaches Hong Kong activists, religious communities, Southern Mongolians and Tibetans. It can even be applied to Chinese citizens whose beliefs or identities just don’t fit the Communist Party’s vision. And because it applies beyond China’s territory, it reaches all of them wherever they live.
Paramilitary institutions, police, security agencies and universities work together, so every part of society is drawn into monitoring and reshaping people’s identities. Students from China’s National Security College, for example, were sent to East Turkistan to study governance centres, neighbourhood grid management, police stations and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, the state-owned paramilitary body that runs its own cities, courts, police and prisons across the region. This was not an academic visit. It was training in how to put a population under surveillance.
What are the risks of speaking out?
I know them personally. In authoritarian systems, telling the truth can be treated as a crime. I was branded a terrorist not because I committed violence but because I practised journalism and dared to speak out. And it was not only me who paid for it. After I reported on what was happening in East Turkistan, 25 members of my family were detained.
I am not alone in this. The Chinese government fears independent reporting, and that is why it works so hard to control information. Foreign journalists have been expelled, local journalists imprisoned and many Uyghur journalists working for international media have seen relatives disappeared, imprisoned or sent to detention camps simply for continuing to report.
The new law gives Beijing further justification to present peaceful advocacy as a threat to national unity. It also sends a message to Uyghurs living in Canada, Europe, Latin America, Turkey and the USA: we are still watching you. That is what transnational repression means.
What should the international community do?
Governments should not judge this law by its title but by its consequences. They should continue documenting human rights abuses, expose China’s efforts to intimidate critics abroad, sanction the officials responsible for these policies and strengthen protections for Uyghur journalists and refugees. We’ll keep documenting these stories even when access is restricted, but we can’t do it alone.
This is not only about Uyghurs. It is about whether a government can erase a people’s culture, history, language and religion and call it unity. That question should concern everyone.

A hatóság munkatársai büntetőeljárást indítottak az Ungvári járásban található Poroskőn történt állatkínzás ügyében – számolt be róla a kárpátaljai rendőrség a hivatalos oldalán.
A rendfenntartók tájékoztatása szerint augusztus 4-én este 20:20 körül egy helyi lakos bejelentést tett arról, hogy ismeretlenek lőttek le 10 lovat, amelyek egy mezőn legeltek.
A helyszínre érkező nyomozók megállapították, hogy a lovak mezőgazdasági területeken és a helyiek háztáji földjein legeltek tulajdonosaik felügyelete nélkül. Az állatok tulajdonosai elmondása szerint a lövöldözésben hét állat sérült meg, az eset pedig az előző éjszaka történt.
A helyszíni szemle során viszont a rendőrök csupán egy sérült lovat találtak. A hatóságok jelenleg vizsgálják a sérült állatok pontos számát, a sérülések körülményeit, valamint az eset feltételezett elkövetőit.
Az ügyben az ukrán Büntető Törvénykönyv 299. cikkének 3. része – különös kegyetlenséggel két vagy több állat sérelmére elkövetett állatkínzás – alapján indult büntetőeljárás. A bűncselekmény akár nyolc év szabadságvesztéssel is büntethető.
