NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Somalia’s maritime police force on Thursday intensified patrols in the Red Sea following a failed pirate hijacking of a ship in the Gulf of Aden earlier this week.The commander of the maritime force in the semiautonomous region of Puntland, Abdullahi Mohamed Ahmed, told The Associated Press that patrols in the waters had doubled and were on a 24-hour rotation to deter pirates.“Here now we have many challenges. We had initially dealt with the pirates and stopped their activities, but recently on top of al-Shabab and IS we have had to look out for them again,”On Sunday, the U.S. military said it had captured five men who had attempted to hijack an Israeli-linked tanker off the coast of YemenU.S. and British militaries said the armed attackers seized the Liberian-flagged Central Park, managed by Zodiac Maritime, in the Gulf of Aden.

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 07:53:22 GMT
JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel and Hamas on Thursday agreed to extend their cease-fire by another day, just minutes before it was set to expire. The truce in Gaza appeared increasingly tenuous as most women and children held by the militants have already been released in swaps for Palestinian prisoners.As word of the extension came Thursday morning, gunmen opened fire on people waiting for buses where a main highway from Tel Aviv enters Jerusalem, killing at least two people and wounding seven others, according to police and Israel’s Magen David Adom emergency service. Police said the two attackers were killed. It was unclear if the attack was carried out by a Palestinian militant group or individuals acting on their own, or if it would have any impact on the truce in Gaza.International pressure has mounted for the cease-fire to continue as long as possible after nearly eight weeks of Israeli bombardment and a ground campaign in Gaza that have killed thousands of Palestinians, uprooted thr...Henry Kissinger’s death met with polarized reaction around the world
Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 07:53:22 GMT
TOKYO (AP) — Polarized reaction poured in Thursday to the death of former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who managed to galvanize global attention decades after his official service as one of the most powerful diplomats in American history.Kissinger, who died Wednesday at 100, was praised as a skilled defender of U.S. interests by world leaders. On social media he was widely called a war criminal who left lasting damage throughout the world.“America has lost one of the most dependable and distinctive voices” on foreign affairs, said former President George W. Bush, striking a tone that many high-level officials, past and present, tried to convey.“I have long admired the man who fled the Nazis as a young boy from a Jewish family, then fought them in the United States Army,” Bush said in a statement. “When he later became Secretary of State, his appointment as a former refugee said as much about his greatness as it did America’s greatness.”Kissinger served two pr...Chicago's first 50° temperatures in 10 days ahead Thursday! Also— a more active weather pattern coming together bringing precipitation Friday
Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 07:53:22 GMT
A more active weather pattern seems to be coming together over the coming days and the next week. The first of a series of weather systems likely to bring Chicago precipitation is slated in here early Friday. The form that precip takes will be interesting to monitor. It seems quite likely it will take the form of rain in the city—especially lakeside areas when "NE" winds will blow off the 45-degree waters of southern Lake Michigan. But air chilly enough to support a period of snow or a wintry mix isn't to be all that far away Friday and we continue to see model indications snow or a wintry mix could occur in areas west of Chicago—but with some wet snowflakes possibly mixed in over parts of the city away from the lake and, with a greater probability of occurring—over northern suburbs.A more active weather pattern seems to be coming together over coming days and the next week.

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 07:53:22 GMT
The Commission has proposed to the Council to extend several of the EU emergency measures that were introduced last year to tackle the energy crisis. While the EU is in a much better position this year, and crisis management tools have proved effective to calm the markets and ensure stable supplies, the extension by another 12 months will provide an additional safeguard as global energy markets remain tight.The measures include the so-called Solidarity Regulation, which contains provisions on LNG market transparency and default rules for solidarity in case of shortages, the Market Correction Mechanism, and the emergency rules related to the acceleration of permitting for renewable energy projects.Enhancing market resilience while fast-forwarding the clean energy transition and ensuring secure energy supplies remains a top priority of the Commission as the heating season has now started in most parts of Europe. The proposed prolongation now requires the approval of the Council by qua...$20,000 reward offered after man gunned down in Compton
