A joint inspection of 51 food-delivery couriers in Luxembourg uncovered multiple irregularities.

Authorities also seized two food deliveries over hygiene or cold-chain breaches and confiscated several phones and five non-compliant e-bikes.
Walferdange will allocate around 11 acres of municipal land for a cooperative housing project expected to accommodate about 20 people in six to 12 units.
