Last update: 3 hours ago

Beach Volleyball in the spotlight: Latvia’s Tina Graudina and Anastasija Kravcenoka were beaten 22-20, 21-18 by Canada’s Melissa Humana-Paredes and Brandie Wilkerson in the Montreal Elite16 women’s quarterfinals; the Canadians move on to Sunday’s semis. Men’s upset at the same event: Canada’s Sam Schachter and Jonathan Pickett shocked world No. 1s Jacob Hölting Nilsson and Elmer Andersson 21-19, 21-17 to reach the men’s semifinals in Montreal. Border security and travel disruption risk: Latvian border guards say they found another migrant tunnel near the Belarus border after detaining 28 people; Latvia has been tightening security with “Operation Werewolf” and more radar/drone use. Weather watch for travelers: Latvia braces for heavy downpours, thunderstorms and damaging winds on Saturday, with flooding possible and road infrastructure at risk. Tourism support push: Seven EU countries including Latvia are asking Brussels for funding to protect tourism in regions hit by security fears tied to Russia, Belarus and Ukraine. Riga stay option: A new Old Riga aparthotel, Carillon Aparthotel, offers apartment-style lodging inside the UNESCO historic centre. Digital travel convenience: GCash and Global Blue launch instant digital tax refunds for Filipino travelers across 16 countries, including Latvia.
