Farg‘ona viloyatining Buvayda tumanida sodir bo‘layotgan voqealar ekologik muammolar barobarida mahalliy boshqaruv tizimidagi jiddiy nuqsonlarni ham yuzaga chiqarayotgan ko‘rinadi. 2025-yilning noyabr oyi oxirida boshlangan nizo endilikda yangi va ancha xavotirli bosqichga o‘tgani aytilmoqda.
Bloger, jurnalist Sharifa Murodning ma’lum qilishicha, avvalroq Buvaydada noqonuniy daraxt kesilishiga qarshi kurashgani va bunga javoban kaltaklangani bilan OAV nigohiga tushgan Ekologiya bo‘limi inspektori Ahror Niyazov huquqni muhofaza qilish organlari tomonidan tergovga olib ketilgan.

Ushbu uchrashuv nafaqat chorak final yo‘lidagi muhim qadam, balki ikki xil futbol maktabi — individual mahorat va jamoaviy intizomning o‘zaro to‘qnashuvi sifatida ham muxlislarda katta qiziqish uyg‘otmoqda.
Braziliya terma jamoasi Karlo Anchelotti qo‘l ostida “C” guruhida 7 ochko to‘plab, birinchi o‘rinni egalladi. “Selesao” turnirni Marokash bilan 1:1 hisobidagi durang bilan boshlagan bo‘lsa-da, keyinchalik Gaiti va Shotlandiya ustidan 3:0 hisobida ishonchli g‘alabalarga erishdi....

So‘nggi besh yilda narkojinoyatlar soni 2,5 barobarga keskin oshgan. Agar 2021-yilda 6 mingta holat aniqlangan bo‘lsa, hozirda bu ko‘rsatkich 15 mingdan o‘tgan. Sintetik narkotiklar masalasi ham kun sayin dolzarblashib, ular bilan bog‘liq holatlar 7 barobarga ko‘paygan.
Narkolaboratoriyalar soni ham xavotirli darajada ortib bormoqda. Jumladan 2021-yilda butun respublika bo‘yicha 4 tasi aniqlangan bo‘lsa, birgina joriy yilning 5 oyida 14 ta yashirin laboratoriya faoliyatiga chek qo‘yilgan. Bu hali ma’lum bo‘lgan raqamlar. Eng xavotirli jihat shundaki, giyohvandlik va narkojinoyatlar “yosharib” bormoqda. Hattoki 12–14 yoshli o‘smirlar ham ushbu jinoyatlarga jalb qilinayotgani...

Jahon chempionatining “H” guruhida haqiqiy futbol ertagi yuz berdi. Kabo-Verde va Saudiya Arabistoni terma jamoalari o‘rtasidagi bahs 0:0 hisobida yakunlandi. Bu natija “Ko‘k akulalar” deb nom olgan Kabo-Verde jamoasi uchun tarixiy muvaffaqiyat keltirdi – debyutant jamoa o‘z tarixida ilk bor Jahon chempionatining nimchorak finaliga yo‘llanmani qo‘lga kiritdi.
Statistik nuqtayi nazardan tahlil qiladigan bo‘lsak, Kabo-Verde o‘yin davomida yaqqol ustunlikka ega bo‘ldi. To‘p nazorati 51-52 foizni tashkil etgan bo‘lsa-da, hujumlarning xavflilik darajasi bo‘yicha orolliklar ancha ilgarilab ketishdi. Zarbalar soni bo‘yicha Kabo-Verde raqibidan ikki baravar ustun keldi (15 ga 7),...
