News overview 14 November 2026: Residents in the Byhaven 4 housing complex in Silkeborg must be relocated, because the building is not safe in strong winds. Microsoft reports that all services have been restored following an outage, and the weekend brings dry weather, sunshine and some wind. In Herning, Queen Machine is playing concerts to packed houses.

Byhaven 4 in Silkeborg to be rehoused

Residents of the Byhaven 4 housing complex in Silkeborg are to be rehoused. According to Silkeborg Kommune, the local municipality, a structural engineer may have calculated the building’s load-bearing structures incorrectly when the complex was constructed between 2021 and 2023. Subsequent investigations have shown that it is unsafe to remain in the building during strong winds, so residents must move out shortly. In October, Silkeborg Kommune received a concerned report from Dancert (the certification authority, which certifies structural engineers). Only residents of Byhaven’s tallest building, Byhaven 4, are to be rehoused; Lars Larsen Group owns the buildings and is responsible for the planning, while the municipality will ensure that it is done. It is unclear how long the residents will be rehoused for. TV MIDTVEST TV MIDTVEST

Diabetesforeningen: Complications when newly diagnosed

A new analysis from Diabetesforeningen shows that 42.7 percent of adults with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes had cardiovascular and/or kidney disease. This equates to around 9000 Danes. The analysis will be published on Saturday 14 November, which is World Diabetes Day. Around 100,000 people in Denmark are estimated to be living with type 2 diabetes without knowing it, and around 500,000 are assessed as having pre-diabetes. Diabetesforeningen suggests that all citizens between 50 and 70 years of age be sent a home test, except for those who have had their long-term blood sugar measured by their doctor within the past two years.
