The Kiruna Church, a Swedish Lutheran church built in 1912, is one of Sweden's most famous buildings. It stands 40 meters (131 feet) tall and weighs 672 tons. The church is set to be relocated five kilometers (three miles) by truck to the new town of Kiruna on Tuesday and Wednesday. This relocation is necessary because the center of Kiruna is being moved due to the large mine that dominates the region. Underground mining is cost-effective and enables a high level of mechanization and automation. However, it causes deformations in the surface ground that, beyond a certain threshold, can render it impossible to maintain any infrastructure or residential areas in those locations.

A bustling street in Sangju, South Korea, on June 25, 2025, where the number of visitors decreases due to the economic downturn. The Korean government's plan to eliminate long-overdue personal debts of up to 50 million won ($36,672) sparks growing controversy over fairness in the policy's application. Because the cap applies per loan rather than per borrower, individuals with multiple qualifying debts could see amounts exceeding 50 million won fully forgiven.
