New European Union regulations are being drafted that could introduce significant restrictions for platforms like Airbnb, impacting the short-term holiday rental market. These proposed rules aim to address concerns surrounding the growing popularity of home-sharing services.

Intended parents have reportedly faced substantial medical bills after insurance claims were denied for surrogates experiencing health complications, prompting a reassessment of the firm's listing on government resources.
