Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 188-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 20,884 on turnover of 5.2-billion N-T. The market plunged more than 4-per cent on Monday on the back of investor concerns over U-S President Donald Trump's tariff threats that could become reality later this week. Monday's decline was the fourth steepest in terms of points in the Tai-Ex's history. Lai urges steps to stabilize Taiwan's economy as U.S. tariffs loom President Lai Ching-te has told Premier Cho Jung-tai to take steps to guarantee Taiwan's economic stability ahead of the expected imposition of "reciprocal tariffs" by the United States tomorrow. According to Presidential Office spokeswoman Karen Kuo, Lai made the call after hearing a presentation by Cho and members of the government's "Taiwan-U.S. trade work group." Kuo says the report included assessments (評估) of possible U-S tariff levels, modeling and estimates of their economic impact, and various potential response plans. The Cabinet's Office of Trade Negotiations has said it's been preparing for the tariffs and has already developed "multifaceted response plans." Interior Minister disbands standby rescue team to help Myanmar after Earthquake Interior Minister Liu Shyh-fang says the government has disbanded a rescue team that was on standby to travel to Myanmar following last Friday's magnitude 7.7 earthquake. According to Liu, her office made the decision after considering the continuing military conflict between Myanmar's military junta and local rebel groups over the past few days despite the strong earthquake. Liu told reporters the government would be unable to guarantee the safety of rescue team members once they arrive there and decided to take team members off standby (支援) and allow them to return to their regular operations in Taiwan. The rescue teams had been on standby since late Friday. Trump administration sanctions six Chinese officials over Hong Kong Crackdown The US has announced sanctions against six officials from China and Hong Kong over the Chinese government's crackdown on the city's pro-democracy movement. Washington and its allies have accused (指控) Beijing of not honoring a commitment to allow the formerly British territory a high degree of autonomy. Ira Spitzer reports. Lithuania 3 Missing Soldiers Bodies Recovered The U.S. Army says three of the soldiers who went missing in Lithuania have been found dead in an armored vehicle that was pulled from a swampy area in Lithuania early Monday. Another soldier is still missing. The bodies of the three were recovered after a massive (大量的) six-day effort by U.S., Polish and Lithuanian armed forces and authorities to dig the M88 Hercules vehicle out of a peat bog at the training ground. The Army says the soldiers were on a tactical training exercise when they and their vehicle were reported missing early Tuesday. Hundreds of Lithuanian and U.S. soldiers and rescuers had joined the search through the thick forests and swampy terrain. The Navy dive team is now searching the area using radar for the fourth soldier who is still missing. That was the I.C.R.T.

“We Don't Want Rice”- Adum Fire Victims Rejects Interior Minister Donations

Victims of the recent devastating fire at Adum in Kumasi have rejected a donation of 1,500 bags of rice, 800 boxes of cooking oil, and soap provided by the Interior Minister and Member of Parliament for Asawase, Muntaka Mubarak.

The Interior Minister Mohammed Mubarak Muntaka has given the police administration end of March, 2025 to give an update of investigation over the confusion and violence during the council of state elections.

The president of the Mobile Money Advocacy Group Edward Ofori Agyemang has stated that they have written a letter to the Inspector General of Police and the Interior Minister, requesting them to help address the alarming number of killings of Momo vendors in the country

At least 76 people have died in a fire at a ski resort in northwestern Türkiye. The country's Interior Minister says nine people have been detained in connection with the incident.

The Haqqani Network, one of Afghanistan's most lethal and resilient insurgent groups, has grown into a hybrid entity, functioning as both a terrorist organization and a political power broker. Its rise is deeply intertwined with decades of flawed U.S. foreign policy, including the Cold War-era support it received as part of the anti-Soviet mujahideen. Fueled by billions of dollars funneled through CIA programs like Operation Cyclone, the Haqqani Network leveraged these resources to build a robust infrastructure and financial networks. Post-9/11, U.S. reliance on Pakistan as a strategic ally allowed the Haqqani Network to thrive under the protection of Pakistan's ISI, despite its role in high-profile attacks against U.S. and NATO forces. This dynamic has created a paradox where the United States inadvertently bolstered an enemy, prioritizing short-term goals over the long-term consequences of such alliances.In recent years, the Haqqani Network has expanded its influence through strategic manipulation of alliances, including facilitating ISIS operations to obscure its direct involvement in atrocities. With Sirajuddin Haqqani now serving as Afghanistan's Interior Minister under the Taliban, the network has entrenched itself as a major player in regional geopolitics, using its power to destabilize adversaries and maintain its dominance. The enduring threat of the Haqqani Network is a stark reminder of the unintended consequences of U.S. intervention and its failure to address Pakistan's duplicity. Moving forward, the Haqqani Network's legacy serves as both a cautionary tale and an urgent call for a reassessment of U.S. counterterrorism strategies to prevent further entrenchment of such extremist groups.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

fWotD Episode 2688: September 1964 South Vietnamese coup attempt Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 13 September 2024 is September 1964 South Vietnamese coup attempt.The September 1964 South Vietnamese coup attempt took place before dawn on September 13, 1964, when the ruling military junta of South Vietnam, led by General Nguyễn Khánh, was threatened by a coup attempt headed by Generals Lâm Văn Phát and Dương Văn Đức, who sent dissident units into the capital Saigon. They captured various key points and announced over national radio the overthrow of the incumbent regime. With the help of the Americans, Khánh was able to rally support and the coup collapsed the next morning without any casualties.In the immediate month leading up the coup, Khánh's leadership had become increasingly troubled. He had tried to augment his powers by declaring a state of emergency, but this only provoked large-scale protests and riots calling for an end to military rule, with Buddhist activists at the forefront. Fearful of losing power, Khánh began making concessions to the protesters and promised democracy in the near future. He also removed several military officials closely linked to the discriminatory Catholic rule of the slain former President Ngô Đình Diệm; this response to Buddhist pressure dismayed several Catholic officers, who made a few abortive moves to remove him from power.In part because of pressure from Buddhist protests, Khánh removed the Catholics Phát and Đức from the posts of Interior Minister and IV Corps commander, respectively. They responded with a coup supported by the Catholic-aligned Đại Việt Quốc dân đảng, as well as General Trần Thiện Khiêm, a Catholic who had helped Khánh to power. Having captured the radio station, Phát then made a broadcast promising to revive Diệm's policies. Khánh managed to evade capture and, during the first stage of the coup, there was little activity as most senior officers failed to support either side. Throughout the day, Khánh gradually rallied more allies and the U. S. remained supportive of his rule and pressured the rebels to give up. With the backing of Air Marshal Nguyễn Cao Kỳ, commander of the Republic of Vietnam Air Force, and General Nguyễn Chánh Thi, Khánh was able to force Phát and Đức to capitulate the next morning, September 14. Đức, Kỳ and Thi then appeared at a media conference where they denied that any coup had taken place and put on a choreographed display of unity, claiming that nobody would be prosecuted over the events.Convinced that Khiêm was involved in the plot, Khánh had him exiled to Washington as ambassador, and eased General Dương Văn Minh out of the political scene, thereby removing the other two nominal members of the ruling triumvirate. However, concerned that Kỳ and Thi had become too powerful, Khánh had Phát and Đức acquitted at their military trial in an attempt to use them as political counterweights. Despite his survival, the coup was seen by the historian George McTurnan Kahin as the start of Khánh's ultimate political decline. Due to the intervention of Kỳ and Thi, Khánh was now indebted to them, and in an attempt to maintain his power in the face of increasing military opposition, he tried to court support from Buddhist civilian activists, who supported negotiations with the communists to end the Vietnam War. As the Americans were strongly opposed to such policies, relations with Khánh became increasingly strained and he was deposed in February 1965 with US connivance.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:03 UTC on Friday, 13 September 2024.For the full current version of the article, see September 1964 South Vietnamese coup attempt on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Amy.

*) South Africa urges ICJ for new emergency measures against Israel South Africa has urged the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to implement additional provisional measures against Israel and to amend the ICJ's interim ruling in the ongoing genocide case. The ICJ acknowledged South Africa's urgent request, citing in quotes "new facts and changes in the situation in Gaza, particularly the situation of widespread starvation." According to the statement issued by the ICJ, South Africa alleges that Israel's actions in Gaza constitute breaches of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, as well as violations of the provisional measures issued by the court in January. *) China supports 'full' UN membership of Palestinian state China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi, has declared Beijing's support for granting full United Nations membership to the Palestinian state. He said in quotes, "The long-cherished wish of the Palestinian people to establish an independent country can no longer be evaded." Addressing the recent events in Gaza, Yi emphasised that the prolonged occupation of Palestinian territories can no longer be overlooked, pointing to the urgent need for international attention. *) US authorised more than 100 weapons sales to Israel, including thousands of bombs: report A new report has exposed that the US has discreetly approved more than 100 weapons sales to Israel since the beginning of Israel's war on Gaza in October. US officials confirmed that the sales encompassed a range of weaponry, including thousands of precision-guided munitions, small-diameter bombs, bunker busters, small arms, and other lethal aid. Notably, some transfers remained under the radar, escaping public scrutiny due to falling below specific dollar amounts that necessitate individual notifications to Congress. *) Senegal's Sall dissolves govt, announces new date for presidential election The Senegalese President Macky Sall has dissolved the government and appointed the previous Interior Minister as the new prime minister. The presidential election, originally slated for June 2, 2024, has now been rescheduled to March 24 of the same year. The government spokesman confirmed these developments in an official statement.

*) No one pursuing hostility towards Türkiye emerges victorious: Erdogan Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has criticised those who are trying to give democracy lessons to Türkiye, noting they turn a blind eye to hate crimes against Turks and Muslims, especially amid rising Islamophobia. In a speech at the Turkish Parliament on Sunday, Erdogan underscored Türkiye's critical role from Karabakh to Libya and Syria to Somalia, insisting, "No country, no society, no institution that pursues a hostile policy towards Türkiye emerges victorious in the end." In the meantime, Turkish warplanes carried out airstrikes on PKK positions in northern Iraq, in accordance with the UN's right to self-defence, the Turkish Defence Ministry has announced. Erdogan's comments and the anti-terror operation came after two terrorists attacked the Turkish Interior Ministry, in the nation's capital, Ankara, hours before his speech in parliament. *) Children among several dead, injured in Mexico church roof collapse The roof of a church collapsed in northern Mexico, during a Mass, killing at least nine people and injuring around 50, authorities said. Search teams probed in the wreckage late into the night, looking for survivors and other victims. The number of young victims — police officers said three of the dead were children — may have been due to the fact that baptisms were to take place at the church. The diocese later posted a list of about 50 people who had been hospitalised, as a result of the accident. Approximately 30 parishioners were believed to have been trapped in the rubble l, when the roof caved in, officials said. *) Serbia tried to annex northern Kosovo in recent attack: Pristina Kosovo said it has evidence Serbia was trying to annex its northern region and that recent attackers had been preparing for this for a long time at military bases. ''This terrorist organisation had only one purpose: the annexation of the north of the Republic of Kosovo,” the Interior Minister said on Sunday. According to the minister, the Serbian President, Defence Minister and Army Chief of Staff were directly engaged in the attempt. *) UN to vote on sending peacekeepers to Haiti The United Nations Security Council is set to vote to approve the deployment of foreign police to Haiti and to authorise the use of force to help the Caribbean nation combat violent gangs that have largely overrun the capital Port-au-Prince. A US-drafted resolution would also expand a UN arms embargo that currently applies only to designated individuals to include all gangs, which China wanted. Haitian officials have said guns used by gangs are believed to be mostly imported from the United States. Haiti asked nearly a year ago for international help. *) Japanese start-up develops high-tech robot inspired by 'Gundam' Tokyo-based start-up Tsubame Industries has developed a 4.5-metre-tall, four-wheeled robot that looks like "Mobile Suit Gundam" from the wildly popular Japanese animation series, and it can be yours for $3 million. Called ARCHAX, after a avian dinosaur, the robot has cockpit monitors that receive images from cameras hooked up to the exterior, so the pilot can manoeuvre the arms and hands with joysticks from inside its torso. The 3.5-tonne robot, to be unveiled at the Japan Mobility Show later this month, has two modes: the upright "robot mode" and a "vehicle mode" in which it can travel up to 10 km per hour.

*) Fury in Israel after 'lenient' police chief is ousted by Netanyahu ally Thousands of protesters have blocked Tel Aviv's main highway and intersections across Israel in an outburst of anger following the forced resignation of the city's popular police chief. Ami Eshed announced on late Wednesday that he was leaving the Israeli police force under what he said was political pressure. Eshed has regularly clashed with the country's hardline National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, who has demanded that police take a tougher stance against months of anti-government protests. *) Azerbaijani leader urges Macron to apologise over French colonialism Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has accused France of being one of the countries which continue their neocolonial policy. Aliyev urged French President Emmanuel Macron to apologise to the countries affected by French colonialism. He also said racist and discriminative rhetoric has become common in France, including in the media. *) Children in conflict zones faced over 27,000 'grave violations' in 2022 Children experienced the highest number of "grave violations" in conflicts verified by the United Nations in 2022, the UN children's agency has said. Omar Abdi, UNICEF's deputy executive director, told the UN Security Council more than 27,000 grave violations, the highest number verified by the UN since its monitoring reports began in 2005. UNICEF expressed particular concern about their plight in Palestine, Somalia, Haiti, Nigeria, Ethiopia and Ukraine. *) Dozens dead as bus careens into gulch in southern Mexico A bus travelling through the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca (Woahaka) has crashed into a ravine, killing 27 people, authorities said. The accident left 13 men, 13 women and an infant boy dead, state's Interior Minister said in a press conference. Another 21 people were injured, of whom 12 are in critical condition, the minister added. *) Meta launches Threads, its answer to Twitter Meta has officially launched Threads, its text-based Twitter rival, but its release in Europe has been delayed over regulatory concerns. "Let's do this. Welcome to Threads," wrote Meta chief executive and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in his first post on the new platform. Threads is the biggest challenger yet to Elon Musk-owned Twitter, which has seen a series of potential competitors emerge but not yet replace one of the social media's most iconic companies, despite its epic struggles.

Sometimes the Beltway lingo collapses under the weight of its own idiocy. Yesterday was such a day when Congressman Michael Waltz asked USAID Director Samantha Powers if U.S. money was going to terrorists in Afghanistan. The Director reframed his "yes or no" question into "Congressman, I think you are asking for more visibility into the granularity' of U.N. controls on American aid dollars." He wasn't, and he said so, but wow, what a phrase. Plus Senator Josh Hawley talks about his new book "Manhood."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday. Legal and settlements reporter Jeremy Sharon and Diaspora Affairs correspondent Judah Ari Gross join host Amanda Borschel-Dan in today's episode. Yesterday, Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara announced Tuesday that she will not defend the appointment of Shas leader Aryeh Deri as interior minister and health minister in High Court of Justice proceedings. How rare is this refusal? Gross reported on a first announced Deri policy as Interior Minister in which new immigrants will be required to prove they've settled in Israel in order to be eligible for an Israeli passport. What is required to enact this? On Monday, the state informed the High Court that rather than demolish the Homesh outpost, it had decided to legalize it by repealing part of the 2005 disengagement law. What was the reason to demolish the settlement then, and how is the state justifying this reversal? Israeli and Diaspora-based heads of top international Zionist groups sent a joint letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, warning him against his incoming government's plan to alter the Law of Return. Gross explains what is unique about this move. Yesterday, Poland said it has been informed by Germany that it does not intend to engage in negotiations on any World War II reparations to Warsaw as Berlin considers the matter closed. Has the country exhausted all options? Discussed articles include: AG refuses to defend government in court against petitions over Deri's appointment Netanyahu meets AG for tense talks, reportedly on plan to split her role into two New immigrants will need to prove they've settled in Israel before getting passports High Court demands government explain refusal to demolish Homesh outpost Leaders of top Zionist bodies warn Netanyahu against altering Law of Return Germany rejects Poland's request for $1.4 trillion in WWII reparations, says Warsaw Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on iTunes, Spotify, PlayerFM, Google Play, or wherever you get your podcasts.
