AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Latvia–Belarus Border Security: Latvia extended enhanced border surveillance until Dec 31 in Ludza, Krāslava, Augšdaugava, Daugavpils and Kaunata, citing thousands of prevented illegal crossings and 89 criminal cases this year over smuggling or illegal stays. Cybersecurity Watch: Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs said a hacker was inside “Latvijas valsts meži” from June 11 but only acted late June; the state is now checking why detection tools and a cybersecurity audit missed abnormal activity. Public Health: A multi-country salmonella outbreak linked to flavoured instant noodles has reached Latvia among 14 countries, with dozens hospitalised and authorities pointing to a Ukrainian producer. Energy & Industry: The EU approved €2.5bn from the Modernisation Fund for 51 projects, including upgrades in Latvia; meanwhile, Sadales tīkls says it faces cyberattacks daily. Transport & Infrastructure: Work on Tapa–Tartu electrification continues, while Latvia also reported progress on a new four-lane highway section in Rapla County. Culture & Community: The 16th Latvian Song and Dance Festival will be held in Grand Rapids, Michigan, bringing Latvian traditions to the diaspora. Sports: Riga FC climbed to the Virslīga top after Badamosi’s two goals sent them past Auda 2-0.
