Trial survey asked if Fenech ordered journalist's murder

Investigation into the murder of Daphne Caruana Galizia has revealed the questions from an anonymous survey commissioned by the defendant's uncle shortly before the trial. Respondents were asked directly if they believed Yorgen Fenech ordered the killing, a move previously linked to concerns over jury selection.

The 2027 budget allocates €1.3 billion to education and promises air conditioning for ten more schools. The opposition Nationalist Party argued the document fails to provide a clear direction for the country.

In Qrendi, residents interrupted the inauguration of a new garden to protest a large-scale development project nearby. Elsewhere, a 21-year-old was charged with terrorism offences following an investigation into travel to Syria, and the prosecution in the Lassane Cisse murder trial made its closing plea for a conviction.
