France's Macron arrives in Nouakchott for Sahel security talks

Date:JUNE 30, 2020, FILE French President Emmanuel Macron arrived in the Mauritanian capital of Nouakchott on Tuesday (June 30) to meet with Sahel leaders to discuss the security in the region. Macron was welcomed by Mauritanian counterpart Mohamed Ould Ghazouani, and the two are slated to meet with presidents of Burkina Faso, Mali, Mauritania, Niger and Chad. French and West African troops have made gains against Islamist groups in the Sahel but the situation remains fragile with persistent attacks by the militants, French and Burkina Faso officials said ahead of the summit on Tuesday. Political instability is also a source of concern as leaders of the group of five Sahel states meet French President Emmanuel Macron and Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez in Nouakchott and are joined by other EU leaders via video. Tuesday's summit will assess recent gains and plan next steps after the countries agreed to bring their forces under one command structure six months ago during a summit in Pau, France. The joint forces, led by France's 5,100 troops, have so far targeted Islamic State in the Greater Sahara as a priority, concentrating military efforts on the tri-border region of Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali known as Liptako-Gourma, an Islamist stronghold.

"We cannot stop our revolution": Sudanese protesters demand faster reform

Date:JUNE 30, 2020 Tens of thousands demonstrated on Tuesday (June 30) in Sudanese cities despite a coronavirus lockdown to demand greater civilian rule in the transition towards democracy after the ouster of veteran strongman Omar al-Bashir last year. Waving Sudanese flags, protesters gathered in Khartoum and its twin cities Khartoum North and Omdurman after the government closed roads and bridges leading to the centre of the capital. Similar protests also took place in Kassala in eastern Sudan and in the restive region of Darfur. They chanted "freedom, peace and justice", the slogan of the anti-Bashir movement. Some protesters blocked streets with burning tyres. Premier Abdalla Hamdok, a technocrat, governs the country in awkward tandem with the long dominant military that helped remove Bashir after mass protests against his 30-year autocracy. An opposition coalition agreed to joint governance with the military in a two-year transition towards free elections but key parts of the deal have not been implemented, such as appointing civilian state governors and establishing a parliament. The crisis has been compounded by the coronavirus pandemic, which has diverted the resources of many donors.

Saudi, U.S. officials call for extending UN arms embargo on Iran

Date:JUNE 29, 2020 Saudi and U.S. officials on Monday urged the international community to extend a U.N. arms embargo on Iran, saying that letting the ban expire would allow Tehran to further arm its proxies and destabilise the region. The ban was imposed 13 years ago but is due to expire in October under the terms of Tehran's 2015 nuclear deal with world powers. Russia and China have signalled they oppose extending the embargo. Both wield vetoes on the U.N. Security Council, which will decide the matter. Jubeir said a shipment of Iranian weapons bound for Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi movement was seized as recently as Sunday. A Saudi-led coalition has been battling the Houthis in Yemen for five years. The conference venue displayed weapons, including drones and missiles, that Saudi authorities said were used in cross-border Houthi attacks on Saudi cities and that were supplied to the group by Tehran. Hook said lifting the ban would "only embolden" Tehran, drive greater instability and trigger a regional arms race. Iran denies arming groups in the Middle East, including the Houthis, and blames regional tensions on the United States and its allies in the region.

Iran's arrest warrant for Trump is a "propaganda stunt"- U.S. official

Date:JUNE 29, 2020, FILE EDITORS PLEASE NOTE: EDIT 1027-IRAN-USA/WARRANT CONTAINS TEHRAN PROSECUTOR AL QASIMEHR ISSUING ARREST WARRANT FOR U.S. PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP U.S. Iran envoy Brian Hook said on Monday (June 29) that an Iranian arrest warrant for President Donald Trump and 35 others over the killing of top general Qassem Soleimani was a "propaganda stunt". Tehran prosecutor Ali Alqasimehr announced the warrants, asking Interpol for help, according to the Fars news agency. Hook speaking in Saudi Arabia alongside Saudi minister of state for foreign affairs Adel al-Jubeir, said: "This is a political nature. This has nothing to do with national security, international peace or promoting stability... It is a propaganda stunt that no-one takes seriously." The United States and Interpol both dismissed the idea of acting on such a warrant. The United States killed Soleimani, leader of the Revolutionary Guards' Quds Force, with a drone strike in Iraq on Jan. 3. Washington accused Soleimani of masterminding attacks by Iranian-aligned militias on U.S. forces in the region. Alqasimehr said the warrants had been issued on charges of murder and terrorist action. He said Iran had asked Interpol to issue a "red notice" seeking the arrest of Trump and the other individuals the Islamic Republic accuses of taking part in the killing of Soleimani.

Seven dead in Pakistan stock exchange attack

Date:JUNE 29, 2020 Gunmen attacked the Pakistan Stock Exchange building in the city of Karachi on Monday (June 29) killing two guards and a policeman before security forces killed all four of the attackers, police said. Separatist insurgents from Balochistan province - the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) - claimed responsibility in a post on Twitter but Reuters was not able to verify the authenticity of the claim and spokesmen for the group were not available for comment. Police said the attackers pulled up in a silver Corolla car, threw a grenade at security men posted outside the compound then opened fire on a security post. The four were killed when security forces posted there responded. Their car was abandoned where they left it. A counter-terrorism official told Reuters the attackers were carrying significant quantities of ammunition and grenades in backpacks. The BLA claimed responsibility in a brief message on a Twitter account set up shortly before the raid, describing it as a "self-sacrificing" attack carried out by its Majeed brigade. The account was suspended a short time after the attack. Separatists have been fighting for years in resource-rich Balochistan, complaining the southwestern province's gas and mineral wealth is unfairly exploited by Pakistan's richer, more powerful provinces. The Pakistan Stock Exchange did not suspend trading during the attack. Its main KSE-100 index dropped 220 points but it later recovered and was 200 points higher at 0830 GMT. Islamist militants have also launched attacks in Karachi and elsewhere in Pakistan over the years but their violence has become less frequent after military operations against various factions in strongholds on the Afghan border.

【映像】テヘラン近郊山中で謎の爆発　秘密の地下ミサイル工場か？

テヘラン、イラン、６月29日（AP）― イラン革命防衛隊の秘密の地下ミサイル工場があるとみられているテヘラン近郊の山中で６月26日、謎の大爆発があった。 　爆発から一夜明けた27日、イラン国営テレビ局が放映した現場の映像は、焼け焦げた巨大なガズ貯蔵ボンベのアップのみで、周辺の風景は写っていない。イラン国防省は、爆発原因をガス漏れと発表しており、爆発による死者、負傷者はいなかったという。 　爆発現場は、20年前に同国が核兵器開発につながる高性能爆薬の実験を行った場所の近くで、付近にはコジール･ミサイル施設がある。 　爆発は、固体燃料ロケットを製造する施設で起きた可能性があると米のミドルベリー国際研究所はみており、欧州委員会が公開した爆発後の衛星写真には、爆発前にはなかった焼け焦げた低木が数百メートルにわたって写っている。 （日本語翻訳･編集　アフロ）

Crosses to honour coronavirus victims: Virus-hit Brazil remains split

Date:JUNE 28, 2020 A thousand crosses placed in front of Brazil's Congress to honour people who have died from COVID-19 and to denounce President Jair Bolsonaro's handling of the pandemic, set against Bolsonaro supporters demonstrating in Brasilia on Sunday (June 28), showcased a divided country. Dozens gathered in Brazil's capital city to show their support for Bolsonaro, while waving Brazilian flags and banners, while drivers honked their horns as they drove past in their cars. A demonstration participant said he was marching every weekend, claiming the country was being taken over by Communists. Brazil recorded 30,476 new cases of the novel coronavirus in the past 24 hours and 552 additional deaths, the Health Ministry said on Sunday. The nation has now registered 1,344,143 total confirmed cases of the virus and 57,622 deaths, among the highest in the world. Meanwhile in Brasilia, a woman was arrested as she took part in an anti-Bolsonaro protest on Copacabana beach. A riot police officer was then seen charging towards protesters and beating a member of the LGBT+ community with a baton. As Brazil emerges as one of the globe's coronavirus hotspots, LGBT+ residents especially are vulnerable as they struggle with issues of health care, work and income, according to recent research.

Trump denies being told about Russian bounties to kill U.S. troops in Afghanistan

Date:JUNE 28, 2020, FILE NOTE TO EDITORS: EDIT ADDS NEW TWEET BY US PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP President Donald Trump on Sunday (June 28) said he was never briefed about Russian efforts to pay bounties to Taliban-linked militants to kill U.S. troops in Afghanistan, blasting a New York Times report that he had been told about the rewards but had not acted to respond to Moscow. The White House on Saturday (June 27) also denied that Trump was briefed on U.S. intelligence regarding the affair but it did not address the merits of the intelligence. The Director of National Intelligence also said Trump and Vice President Mike Pence were not briefed, and called the Times report inaccurate. "Nobody briefed or told me, @VP Pence, or Chief of Staff @MarkMeadows about the so-called attacks on our troops in Afghanistan by Russians, as reported through an 'anonymous source' by the Fake News @nytimes. Everybody is denying it & there have not been many attacks on us," Trump tweeted, calling on the newspaper to reveal its source. The Times on Friday (June 26) reported that U.S. intelligence had concluded that a Russian military intelligence unit linked to assassination attempts in Europe had offered rewards for successful attacks last year on American and coalition soldiers, and that Islamist militants or those associated with them were believed to have collected some bounty money. Russia's foreign ministry dismissed the report. "I've never recalled a circumstance where the president himself goes out of his way to say he wasn't briefed on something," Trump's former national security adviser John Bolton said on NBC's 'Meet The Press.' Bolton, who left his position in September of last year, did add that he was not familiar with the intelligence cited in the New York Times report.

Hong Kongers march in silent protest against national security laws

Date:JUNE 28, 2020 Hundreds of Hong Kongers marched silently through the city's streets on Sunday (June 28) in protest against the looming national security legislation to be implemented by the mainland Chinese government. Riot police armed with shields were present as the crowd moved from Jordan to Mong Kok in the Kowloon district, as part of a "silent protest", in which they marched with the usual chanting or slogan shouting mainly absent. Scuffles broke out in Mong Kok during the event, prompting police to use pepper spray to subdue parts of the crowd, according to a Reuters witness. The proposed national security laws were reviewed by the National People's Congress Standing Committee on Sunday, according to a report by state media Xinhua. The laws are expected to be passed before the end of June but a draft has yet to be made public. "It has been one year since we started to protest and the government kept ignoring our demands and upgraded to implementing the national security law," said Roy Chan, 44, who was on the streets of Jordan on Sunday. ''We must stand up and to strike down all those people who want to deprive Hong Kong people's freedom,'' added Chan. (Production: Joyce Zhou) (Caption:7001AS-HONGKONG-PROTESTS_)

Hundreds in Berlin rally against racial injustice

Date:JUNE 27, 2020 Hundreds of people in the German capital Berlin rallied against racial injustice on Saturday (June 27). Organisers said the protest was held in honour of George Floyd, a Black man killed in police custody in Minneapolis on May 25. His death sparked a wave of protests in the U.S. and beyond - including one in Berlin on June 6 which attracted upwards of 5,000 people. On Saturday, one protester addressing the crowd said she wanted to draw attention to racism and violence against people of colour across Europe. Protesters stood on markers on the ground to maintain distance from one another and wore face masks due to the coronavirus pandemic. Berlin's official Black Lives Matter group distanced itself from the protest, saying it was not organizing any physical demonstrations because of the risk of COVID-19. The protest fell on the same day as a Gay Pride parade in the city, as temperatures topped 30 degrees Celsius. (Caption:6021GE-MINNEAPOLIS-POLICE_PROTESTS_GERMANY)

Date:JUNE 27, 2020 Hundreds of protesters, wearing colourful face masks and holding banners, gathered in London on Saturday (June 27) in a show of support for the Black Trans Lives Matter movement. Inspired by the wave of black-led protests that have swept the world since the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis police custody back in May, demonstrators marched through the English capital to draw attention to discrimination against transgender people and the black community. The march takes place on the same day as Pride, which has seen a number of pared-down parades. Many marches have been called off due to coronavirus curbs banning mass gatherings. Pride marches around the world are drawing attention to the pressures faced by the LGBT+ community under lockdowns imposed to stem the spread of COVID-19, with an increase in reports of mental health problems and domestic abuse.

Battle to topple Lincoln's Emancipation Memorial rages as tensions rise in DC

Date:JUNE 26, 2020 ***NOTE TO EDITORS: EDIT ADDS TWEETS BY US PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP*** ***NOTE TO EDITORS: EDIT CONTAINS USE PROFANE LANGUAGE IN SHOT 9, 10, 12 & 16*** Hundreds of Protesters in Washington D.C's Lincoln Park, on Friday (June 26) gathered, for the second time this week, around a bronze memorial statue of Abraham Lincoln that celebrates the Emancipation Proclamation and depicts the president standing over a kneeling African American man who is newly freed from slavery, calling for it to be toppled. Since the protesters tried to bring the Emancipation Memorial down on Tuesday, Federal and D.C. law enforcement erected barriers around the Memorial in advance of the demonstrations. Arguments between protesters who wanted to bring down the monument and counter-protesters escalated to a point where Jack Posobiec, a known American alt-right political activist, had to be escorted to safety by police as scuffles broke out. U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday canceled a planned weekend visit to his golf resort in Bedminster, New Jersey, and said he was staying in Washington "to make sure LAW & ORDER is enforced." Trump has pledged to take a hard line on anyone destroying or vandalizing historical U.S. monuments and has threatened to use force on some protesters, as activism against racial injustice sweeps the country. The 2003 Veterans Memorial Preservation Act provides for prison terms of up to 10 years for destroying or attempting to destroy monuments commemorating those who served in the U.S. armed forces. Trump's order also threatens to withhold federal support to state and local law enforcement agencies that fail to protect monuments. The controversial statue, which is replicated in Boston, is one of many other statues and monuments targeted by crowds in recent weeks that pay homage to the rebel Confederacy from the nation's Civil War and are seen as tributes to those who perpetuated slavery. The calls for their removal, along with massive Black Lives Matter protests earlier this month and local governments reforming police forces, were sparked by the May 25 death of George Floyd, a Black man killed in police custody.

Israeli campaigners want Jewish ruins included in West Bank annexations

Date:JUNE 23, 2020, FILE The Israeli government faces calls from campaigners to declare sovereignty over ancient Jewish ruins on land in the occupied West Bank that Israel does not plan to annex under U.S. President Donald Trump's peace blueprint. The annexation plan, which the government is due to start discussing as of Wednesday, envisages Israel annexing Jewish settlements and the Jordan Valley - some 30% of the West Bank. Under Trump's plan, a Palestinian state would be created in the rest of the West Bank, occupied by Israel since a 1967 war. An Israeli advocacy group called "Safeguarding Eternity" is worried about what will happen to Jewish archaeological sites on parts of the West Bank not included in Trump's annexation map. It wants Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government to guarantee Israeli control over sites such as the remnants of hilltop Hasmonean and Herodian forts dating back two millennia, and hundreds of ruins from earlier Jewish rule. "This entire plan - its right, its essence - is the connection of the Jewish people to their land and our heritage," Eitan Melet, a director of Safeguarding Eternity, said as he stood among a jumble of limestones that were the foundation of the desert fortress of Cypros, overlooking the Palestinian city of Jericho. "If we don't take our heritage sites into account, this plan has no right to exist at all." The Israeli government has not commented on the campaigners' demands. The Palestinians reject Trump's blueprint and Israel's plan to annex territory they seek for a future state. (Full Story) Assaf Avraham, an archaeologist at Israel's Bar-Ilan University, said he too was worried about the fate of archaeological sites in the West Bank. "If these areas are not in the hands or under the sovereignty of (authorities) that know how to take care of and maintain archaeological sites, and which have the motivation to do so, we really fear for these places," he said. The Palestinian Tourism and Antiquities Ministry dismissed such concerns. It said in a statement that it is "able to protect and preserve the cultural heritage sites under Palestinian control, as maintenance and restoration work is carried out continuously". The Palestinians say Trump's plan is biased, and most world powers view Israel's settlements in the West Bank as illegal. Interim 1993 peace accords granted the Palestinians limited self-rule in West Bank areas, where they agreed to secure Jewish heritage sites for Israeli visits.

Palestinian driver shot dead after alleged car-ramming on Israeli police

Date:JUNE 23, 2020 EDITORS PLEASE NOTE: EDIT CONTAINS GRAPHIC IMAGES Israeli police on Tuesday (June 23) shot dead a Palestinian who they said had tried to ram his car into an officer at a military checkpoint in the occupied West Bank. Palestinian officials questioned the police's account of Ahmad Erekat's death. They said he was rushing to nearby Bethlehem to pick up family members from a hair salon on his sister's wedding day. Israeli police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said the 27-year-old lightly injured an officer when he drove his vehicle into a barrier at a checkpoint near the town of Abu Dis, east of Jerusalem. Saeb Erekat, secretary general of the Palestine Liberation Organization, said the man was his relative, and that his wedding was supposed to be next week. Video showed Israeli troops placing a plastic sheet over the man, who lay shirtless on the ground next to his vehicle. Tensions have risen in recent weeks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's cabinet due on July 1 to begin discussing annexation of the West Bank, territory Israel captured in a 1967 war and that Palestinians seek for a state. Palestinians vehemently oppose the annexation plan, as do most world powers. (Production: Mohammed Abu Ganeyeh, Suheir Sheikh) (Caption:2169WD-ISRAEL-PALESTINIANS_VIOLENCE)

Date:JUNE 23, 2020 With tears, some laughter and memories of a generous young man, more than 200 friends and family members filled the pews of an historic Atlanta church on Tuesday (June 23) for the funeral of Rayshard Brooks. The death of Brooks, a Black man who was shot twice in the back by Atlanta police outside of a fast-food restaurant on June 12, heightened tensions over police brutality and racism that have raged since the killing of George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis on May 25. Mourners at the Ebenezer Baptist Church also called for an end to police brutality and racism so that Brooks' death would not be in vain. All wearing masks because of the novel coronavirus pandemic, those in attendance sat mostly together in the center of the cavernous church, which limited attendance to allow for some measure of social distancing. Dressed in white, Brooks' widow, Tomika Miller, sat in the front pew with her daughter on her lap. While a time for mourning, the church also billed the service as a celebration of his life and The Martin Luther King, Sr. Choir performed. Ambrea Mikolajczyk, a colleague and friend, described Brooks as a loving family man who was always looking out for others in the community. "He radiated such a bright light that regardless of the cowardly act that took his life, his light will never be dim. He will continue to shine so bright, even in his absence," Mikolajczyk said. Some police supporters have called the shooting justified, citing video appearing to show Brooks firing a Taser at an officer before being shot. But his death nevertheless set off a wave of protests in Atlanta, breathing new life into historic, nationwide demonstrations following Floyd's death. The site of the funeral was a testament to the gravity of the moment. Ebenezer Baptist was where Martin Luther King Jr., the leader of the Black civil rights movement, once preached until his assassination in 1968. King's daughter, Bernice King, implored demonstrators to keep marching "until white supremacist policies and practices are no longer the order of the day", and called for the payment of reparations to African Americans to atone for slavery. "Rayshard Brooks' death will not be in vain because justice will roll down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream," she said, invoking a line from her father's "I Have a Dream" speech at the August 1963 March on Washington. Paul Howard, the Fulton County District Attorney, has pursued the case aggressively, arguing that Brooks was not a threat even as he ran away with a Taser stun gun he had taken from one of the officers during an attempted arrest. The Atlanta police officer who shot Brooks, Garrett Rolfe, 27, was fired and charged with murder. A second officer, Devin Brosnan, 26, was placed on administrative duty and charged with aggravated assault. The city's police chief resigned. After a service of more than two hours, Brooks' body in his gold-colored casket was escorted out of the church for its journey to a nearby graveyard. On the way, it drove past the charred Wendy's restaurant outside of which he died. (Production: Arlene Eiras) (Caption:2188WD-MINNEAPOLIS-POLICE_ATLANTA_FUNERAL)

'No for annexation, yes for security' - Israeli protesters

Date:JUNE 23, 2020 Israelis on Tuesday (June 23) demonstrated against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's plan to extend sovereignty over parts of the occupied West Bank, de-facto annexation of land that the Palestinians seek for a state. Around a thousand protesters gathered at Tel Aviv's Rabin Square wearing face masks and keeping their distance from each other observing COVID-19 restrictions. The Palestinians want an independent state in the West Bank, east Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip, territories Israel captured in a 1967 Middle East war. Netanyahu has set July 1 as the target date to begin advancing his plan to annex Israel's settlements and the Jordan Valley in the West Bank, hoping for a green light from Washington. U.S. President Donald Trump in January unveiled a peace plan which includes Israel keeping its settlements and the Palestinians establishing a state under stringent conditions. Palestinians have rejected the proposal and voiced outrage against Israel's proposed annexation. Warning of possible violence and diplomatic repercussions, some European and Arab states, together with the United Nations, have urged Israel to step back from the plan to annex its settlements, regarded by many countries as illegal.

There was no immediate confirmation from Saudi authorities on whether the smoke seen over Riyadh was from another missile interception. The coalition also intercepted 8 drones laden with explosives and launched towards the kingdom on Monday (June 22), according to the coalition. The drones were also launched by the Iran-aligned Houthis, it said. (Production: Nael Shyoukhi, Mohammed Benmansour, Kristian Brunse) (Caption:2061WD-SAUDI-SECURITY_)

Black Lives Matter protesters march through central London

Date:JUNE 21, 2020 EDITORS NOTE: PROFANITY IN SHOT 1 Black Lives Matter protesters marched through central London on Sunday (June 21) as demonstrations continue nearly a month after the death of George Floyd. Protesters carried placards and chanted, "No Justice, No Peace" and "Black Lives Matter" as they marched through the capital, passing on their route the statue of Winston Churchill in Parliament Square which had previously been covered up by authorities for fear of vandalism. Tens of thousands of people have demonstrated in British cities since the death of African-American George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis last month. Rolling, global protests in recent weeks reflect rising anger over police treatment of ethnic minorities, sparked by the May 25 killing of Floyd in Minneapolis after a police officer detaining him knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes as fellow officers stood by.

So sieht es in Stuttgart nach den nächtlichen Randalen aus

Date:21.06.2020 In der Nacht zum Sonntag ist es in der Stuttgarter Innenstadt zu Randalen gekommen. Dabei hätten vor allem junge Männer Polizisten, Streifenwagen und Läden angegriffen, teilte die Polizei mit. Auslöser war wohl eine Polizeikontrolle im Zusammenhang mit einem Rauschgiftdelikt. Anschließend kam e zu Tätlichkeiten gegenüber der Polizei. Auch zunächst Unbeteiligte solidarisierten sich mit den Kontrollierten. Dabei seien Polizisten "äußerst aggressiv" angegangen worden. Vielerorts gingen Schaufenster zu Bruch, wurden Läden geplündert. Auch der eines Mobilfunk-Anbieters, in dem Eyob Russom Filialleiter ist. Der Schaden ist noch nicht auszumachen. "Ich finde es einfach traurig. Ich bin entsetzt", sagte er. Und mit seinem Unverständnis ist er nicht allein. Viele Stuttgarter wunderten sich darüber, was in ihrer beschaulichen Stadt passieren konnte. "Hat man noch nie gesehen in Stuttgart. Total fassungslos eigentlich. Kann ich gar nicht glauben, kennt man eher aus Amerika oder auch aus anderen großen Metropolen, aber nicht aus Stuttgart", sagte ein Passant. Am Nachmittag wollte die Polizei auf einer Pressekonferenz weitere Einzelheiten bekanntgeben. (Caption:7023GE-DEUTSCHLAND-STUTTGART_RANDALE_MORGEN)

Moments of tension fade amid peaceful protest after Trump rally in Tulsa

Date:JUNE 20, 2020 EDITORS NOTE: EDIT CONTAINS SIGN WITH PROFANITY ON IT AND PROTESTERS USING PROFANE LANGUAGE EDITORS NOTE: PART QUALITY AS INCOMING IN SHOT 7 Protesters gathered in the streets of Tulsa, Oklahoma following U.S. President Donald Trump's campaign rally on Saturday (June 20) night, with brief moments of tension between protesters, police and Trump supporters giving way to peaceful demonstrating. As protesters supporting the Black Lives Matter movement mixed with Trump supporters, interactions led to raised voices, but both sides held off on violence. Protesters banged drums, raised fists and chanted slogans throughout the evening. Tension escalated when a contingent of police advanced toward protesters, one officer raising a weapon, but faded as police fell back. The country's racial divide remains a political vulnerability for Trump. His "law and order" reaction to the protests triggered by Floyd's death has put him at odds with the views of most Americans. After intense criticism, Trump postponed the planned rally in Tulsa by a day so that it did not coincide with the commemorations of the June 19 anniversary of the end of slavery in the United States.

Georgia marks one year since violent anti-government protests

Date:JUNE 20, 2020, FILE Thousands of people gathered in the centre of the Georgian capital Tbilisi on Saturday (June 20) for a protest against the government and Russia, one year after the brutal dispersal of an anti-Kremlin demonstration. The demonstration was the first major gathering in the country during the coronavirus pandemic and organisers placed markers with the face of the Russian President Vladimir Putin on the ground to observe social distancing. The majority of participants were wearing protective masks, while organisers were distributing sanitizers. The protest on Saturday was organised by young activists who held daily protests outside the parliament building for three months last year after the protest on June 20 and drawing thousands at their peak. The protest movement erupted last June when a visiting Russian lawmaker was allowed to address the Georgian parliament from the speaker's chair, in Russian, touching a nerve in a country that fought a war with Russia 12 years ago. The rally outside parliament one year ago descended into violent clashes with police, who used tear gas and rubber bullets against protesters. More than 240 people were injured, including more than 30 journalists and 80 policemen. Two protesters, including 18-year-old Mako Gomuri, lost their eyesight. At the end of the protest demonstrators held up placards saying "We will meet at the election", referring to parliamentary vote later this year.

Hundreds of demonstrators, including families of alleged victims of police brutality, started to congregate in the capital's Place de la Republique square before marching towards the city's Pere Lachaise neighbourhood. Protests have been taking place around the world against racism and police brutality following the death in the United States last month of Black American George Floyd. The outpouring of emotion from Floyd's death has resonated in France, in particular in deprived city suburbs where accusations of brutal, racist treatment of residents of often immigrant background by French police remain largely unaddressed, rights groups say. Before Saturday's protest, police urged restaurants, shops and businesses between the upscale Place de la Republique and Opera areas to close and board up their windows due to the risk of civil disorder.

Over 120,000 refugees across Syria are expected to benefit from the new housing project organised by the Turkish IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation, which is currently working in Idlib. As well as providing people with new homes, the foundation provides refugees with various household necessities including mattresses, pillows, blankets, and kitchen equipment. IHH Relief Foundation has been delivering aid to people in need since 1992, by 1995 they became an official organization spread around five continents from Turkey to 135 countries and territories. Hundreds of thousands of civilians have had to leave their homes due to Russian-backed government forces and Iran-backed foreign fighter militias and are now taking shelter in densely populated camps near the Turkish border. On March 5, a ceasefire was agreed between Russia, which backs Syrian President Bashar al Assad's forces, and Turkey, which supports opposition fighters. Turkey has said that the three-month-old ceasefire reached by Moscow and Ankara is still holding, despite what Turkey says are attempts by radical groups there to disrupt it.

北朝鮮、南北共同連絡事務所爆破に関する声明

NKorea statement attacks SKorea President North Korean television aired more strong statements from Pyongyang on Wednesday, including a new attack on South Korean President Moon Jae-in, coming from the Kim Yo Jong. North Korea's recent barrage of criticism against South Korea has been going on for two weeks, but Wednesday's broadcast was the first to directly target Moon. Kim Yo Jong's statement does not mention Moon by name, but refers to him as the South Korean "Chief Executive." Kim Yo Jong is widely believed to be Kim Jong Un's sister, but inside North Korea, that relationship has never been openly acknowledged in public. Kim Yo Jong led Pyongyang's landmark participation in the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea, and has since been taking on an increasingly high profile role.

NKorea media shows explosion of liaison office North Korean state television on Wednesday broadcast footage of the demolition of the inter-Korean-liason office in Kaesung in North Korean territory. State broadcaster KRT played the footage of Tuesday's destruction of several offices - a move which further raised tensions between the two rival countries. The offices, which were set up in 2018, were empty at the time of destruction. The site had been effectively abandoned after relations became strained between the two countries. North Korea said Wednesday it will redeploy troops to now-shuttered inter-Korean cooperation sites, reinstall guard posts and resume military exercises at front-line areas, nullifying the tension-reducing deals reached with South Korea just two years ago. Military officials for North Korea said it will resume military exercises, reestablish guard posts, boost military readiness in border areas and open front-line sites for flying propaganda balloons toward South Korea. These steps would end the September 2018 agreements reached between the Koreas aimed at lowering military tensions at border areas.

South Korea's Unification Ministry expresses regret over North Korea's explosion

Date:JUNE 16, 2020 South Korea's Unification Ministry, which is in charge of the inter-Korea relations, on Tuesday (June 16) expressed deep regret over North Korea's unilateral demolition of a joint liaison office that was a symbol of inter-Korean reconciliation. The demolition was "unprecedented in inter-Korean relations" and a "nonsensical act that should have not happened", South Korean vice unification minister Suh Ho, who co-headed the liaison office, told reporters.

S.Africa protesters demand removal of Afrikaner Boer war hero's statue

Date:JUNE 16, 2020 Protesters in Cape Town demanded the removal of a colonial-era statue of South Africa's first prime minister Louis Botha on Tuesday (June 16). Botha fought during the South African Boer war from 1899 to 1902 and saw soldiers from the then British empire fighting against two independent Boer states - the South African Republic and the Orange Free State, over the empire's influence in South Africa. In 1902, at the end of the war, Botha took a prominent role in achieving peace with the British empire. When South Africa obtained dominion status in 1910 under the Commonwealth, Botha became the first Prime Minister of the Union of South Africa. Botha's statue stands outside the parliament building. A handful police officers stood by watching the protesters who were chanting and carrying placards, one of them written with "Louis Botha was a racist and a criminal." "We remain oppressed by the police and we remain oppressed by the establishment and such monuments remain to oppress us and they remain to celebrate black oppression," said protester Chulumanco Nkasela. Statues glorifying colonialists and slave traders have come into sharp focus in recent days, as part of a broader movement inspired by the Black Lives Matter protests that started in the United States following the death of African American George Floyd under police custody.

Hong Kong chief says opponents of security law are "enemy of the people"

Date:JUNE 16, 2020 Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam on Tuesday (June 16) urged opponents of Beijing's plan to impose national security legislation in the financial hub to stop "smearing" the effort, saying those who did were "the enemy of the people". Beijing last month announced a plan to introduce legislation in Hong Kong to tackle secession, subversion, terrorism and foreign interference. Critics see it as the most serious threat to a "one country, two systems" formula, agreed when the former British colony returned to Chinese rule in 1997, aimed at ensuring its freedoms and role as a global financial centre. "I urge opponents who still use the usual tactics to demonise and smear the (legislation) work to stop. Because by doing this they're making themselves the enemy of the Hong Kong people," Lam said during a news conference. Lam also said the government was considering relaxing restrictions aimed at stopping the coronavirus but it was unlikely they would be completely scrapped. Hong Kong's borders are almost fully closed and groups are limited to eight people although life is returning to normal. The rules have helped limit numbers at demonstrations, with police citing the coronavirus in rejecting applications for rallies.

南北共同連絡事務所爆破、韓国側所長が声明

South Korea's Unification Ministry expresses regret over North Korea's explosion STORY: South Korea's Unification Ministry, which is in charge of the inter-Korea relations, on Tuesday (June 16) expressed deep regret over North Korea's unilateral demolition of a joint liaison office that was a symbol of inter-Korean reconciliation. The demolition was "unprecedented in inter-Korean relations" and a "nonsensical act that should have not happened", South Korean vice unification minister Suh Ho, who co-headed the liaison office, told reporters. The office, when it was operating, effectively served as an embassy for the old rivals and its destruction represents a major setback to efforts by South Korean President Moon Jae-in to coax the North into cooperation. Tension has been rising over recent days with North Korea threatening to cut ties with South Korea and retaliate over the propaganda leaflets, which carry messages critical of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, including on human rights.

In Leeds, several hundred people assembled in Millennium Square, holding up signs and many wearing face masks.

Tausende mit Mundschutz bei "Unteilbar"-Demo

Date:14.06.2020 Mit einem etwa neun Kilometer langen Band der Solidarität vom Brandenburger Tor bis zum Herrmannplatz in Neukölln haben am Sonntag in Berlin nach Angaben der Veranstalter mehr als 20.000 Menschen demonstriert. Bundesweit nahmen mehrere zehntausend Menschen an er sogenannten "Unteilbar"-Demo teil, zu der sich rund 130 Initiativen und Gruppen zusammen getan haben - gegen Rassismus und Nationalismus, für Flüchtlinge, Klimaschutz und Frauenrechte. Am Brandenburger Tor startete das Band mit den "Omas gegen Rechts", gefolgt von "Friday For Future"-Vertretern und vielen anderen. Auch Teilnehmer von SPD, Grünen und Linken beteiligten sich an der Demonstration durch die Berliner Innenstadt. Alle drei Meter sollte mit Mund-Nase-Schutz ein Platz am Band gesucht werden - ganz den Corona-Regularien entsprechend. "Ich finde, wenn man wie hier darauf achtet, dass man wirklich den Abstand einhält und die Mund-Nasen-Bedeckung drauf hat, dann sollte man trotzdem auf die Straßen gehen und nicht alles pausieren", sagte eine der Demonstrantinnen. "Mir ist es sehr wichtig, dass man auch in Zeiten von Corona nicht nur an sich denkt, sondern dass man sieht, dass es weltweit noch viele Probleme gibt", sagte eine weitere Demonstrantin zu ihrem Anliegen. "Es gab ja jetzt die Rassismus- Debatte, es gibt auch dieses Thema, was vor allem am Anfang war, mit den Flüchtlingen in den Flüchtlingslagern. Ich will einfach, dass wir auch darauf aufmerksam machen, dass es eine internationale Krise ist und dass wir auch Solidarität zeigen mit den Menschen, die in einer weniger privilegierten Position sind als wir." Ein Polizeisprecher vor Ort bezeichnete die Demonstration als "vorbildlich" und zog eine "absolut positive Bilanz". Die Teilnehmer hätten den von den Veranstaltern geforderten Mundschutz getragen und die nötigen Abstände eingehalten und somit "dem Infektionsschutz Genüge getan". In der Woche zuvor hatte es auf dem Berliner Alexanderplatz eine Demonstration gegeben, bei der die Menschen teils ohne Mundschutz dicht an dicht gegen Rassismus demonstriert hatten, was viele besorgt hatte. Vor rund zwei Jahren, im Oktober 2018 waren in Berlin bei der ersten "Unteilbar"-Demo etwa 240.000 Menschen für Gleichheit und soziale Rechte auf die Straße gegangen.

北朝鮮がビラ散布に報復予告 朝鮮半島の緊張高まる

NKOREA SKOREA TENSION North Korean state television on Saturday reported the country's latest broadside against South Korea, saying relations were now at an "uncontrollable stage". Employing North Korea's trademark tough language, a newsreader read out a statement sharply criticising the Blue House, the official residence of South Korean President Moon Jae-in. The statement did not mention Moon by name. It ended with a warning that Seoul would face "painful times”. The latest war of words between the two countries started after activists in the South used balloons to send anti-Pyongyang leaflets over the border into the North. Although the government in the South acted to stop the activists, the statement from Pyongyang said this had come too late. Seoul had shut the stable door after the horse had bolted, the statement said.

Lebanese PM blames opponents for unrest as protests enter third day

Date:JUNE 13, 2020 Lebanese Prime Minister Hassan Diab accused his opponents on Saturday (June 13) of deepening a currency crisis and fuelling unrest as the country entered a third day of protests sparked by a sharp drop in the Lebanese pound. Protests broke out on Thursday after the currency plunged to new lows over the past week, with rising anger over the government's inability to contain an economic crisis that has devastated living conditions. The pound has lost some 70% of its value since October, when the debt-saddled country was plunged into a financial crisis that has hiked prices, slashed jobs, and brought on capital controls that have frozen people out of their dollar savings. The currency, which had hit about 5,000 to the dollar, appeared to reverse its slide on Friday after a government announcement that the central bank would inject dollars into the market on Monday. In a televised address on Saturday, Diab said political opponents looking to thwart government efforts to investigate and crack down on corruption were stirring the latest unrest. "Some have tried to exploit the situation again...They have thrown lies and rumours, have contributed to deepening the Lebanese pound crisis, have caused a major crisis and have pushed people onto the streets," Diab said. Diab, who took office in January with the backing of the powerful Iran-aligned Hezbollah, did not name the opponents. Protesters returned to streets across Lebanon on Saturday, with demonstrations in Beirut, the northern city of Tripoli, and Sidon in the south, expressing outrage over the deteriorating conditions and many calling on the government to resign. The renewed unrest could complicate Beirut's ongoing talks with the International Monetary Fund over a reform programme it hopes will secure billions in financing and kickstart a recovery.

Clashes and confrontations as French anti-racism protests turn violent

Date:JUNE 13, 2020 Riot police clashed with protesters in France on Saturday (June 13) as tensions bubbled over during anti-racism rallies across the country. Police fired tear gas and charged at pockets of violent protesters in central Paris, as a wave of anger continued to sweep the world following the death of African American George Floyd in police custody. Some protesters hurled bottles and other objects at police lines after three hours of peaceful protest gave way to clashes. In Nantes riot police blocked the path of protesters who were marching through the town. The outrage generated by Floyd's death in Minneapolis last month has resonated in France, in particular in deprived city suburbs where rights groups say that accusations of brutal treatment by French police of residents of often immigrant background remain largely unaddressed.

Date:JUNE 13, 2020 Crowds of protesters gathered in the French capital's Place de la Republique on Saturday (June 13) in a stand against police brutality and racism, calling for peace as a wave of anger continued to sweep the world following the death of African American George Floyd. The outrage generated by Floyd's death in Minneapolis last month whilst in police custody has resonated in France, in particular in deprived city suburbs where rights groups say that accusations of brutal treatment by French police towards residents of often immigrant background remain largely unaddressed. "As a person of colour, when I walk in front of the police I feel bad, I'm scared," said 18 year-old protester Alexis from Seine et Marne, adding that he feared what happened to Floyd could happen to him. Demonstrators also drew parallels between Floyd's death and of 24-year-old Adama Traore, who died near Paris in 2016 after police detained him. Traore's family say he was asphyxiated when three officers held him down with the weight of their bodies. Authorities say the cause of his death is unclear. Protests took place in other countries on Saturday, including in several Australian cities, Taipei, Zurich and London.

The protesters chanted "No justice, no peace" and some climbed the statue of Marianne, who personifies the French Republic, in the Place de la Republique.

Assa Traore, sister of 24-year-old Adama Traore, who died near Paris in 2016 after police detained him, addressed the protest. "The death of George Floyd has a strong echo in the death in France of my little brother," she said. "What's happening in the United States is happening in France. Our brothers are dying."

In and around Parliament Square, hundreds of people wearing football shirts, chanting "England, England," and describing themselves as patriots, gathered alongside military veterans to guard the Cenotaph war memorial. The group sang songs in support of right-wing activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, who goes by the name of Tommy Robinson. "Winston Churchill, he's one of our own," they also chanted, near his statue which last weekend was sprayed with graffiti reading: "Churchill was a racist." Statues of historical figures including Winston Churchill - Britain's World War Two leader whom anti-racism protesters call a xenophobe - were boarded up to try and minimise trouble. In Trafalgar Square, police separated two groups of about 100 people each, one chanting "Black Lives Matter," the other racial slurs. Some groups jostled, tossed bottles and cans and set off fireworks, as riot police lined up. Demonstrations have been taking place around the world over the death of African American George Floyd in Minneapolis after a white policeman knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes. In Britain, debate is raging over monuments to those involved in the nation's imperialist past, especially after the statue of slave trader Edward Colston was torn down and thrown into the harbour of Bristol port last weekend. Police said on Saturday that some people were bringing weapons to the London rallies. They imposed route restrictions on both groups and said rallies must end by 5 p.m. (1600 GMT).

Date:JUNE 13, 2020 Black Lives Matter protesters in central London condemned the actions of right wing demonstrators who repeatedly clashed with police on Saturday (June 13). Anti racism campaigners with placards and banners protested peacefully as thousands of people took to the streets of England's capital. There were skirmishes between riot police and right wing demonstrators, many of whom had vowed to protect statues from vandalism. Those actions were condemned by Black Lives Matter protesters, who said they would not be intimdated. Earlier police had warned that some people may bring weapons, while statues of historical figures including Winston Churchill - Britain's World War Two leader whom Black Lives Matter demonstrators call a racist - were boarded up to avoid becoming flashpoints. Police said that some people were planning to come to London to cause harm and imposed route restrictions on both groups and said rallies must end by 5 pm (1600 GMT).

Parisians tussle over 'White Lives Matter' banner

Date:JUNE 13, 2020 EDITORS PLEASE NOTE: QUALITY AS INCOMING Anti-racism protesters tussled with counter-demonstrators in Paris on Saturday (June 13) over a 'White Lives Matter' banner which had been strung up from a building in the French capital. Far-right activists unfurled a banner reading "Justice for the victims of anti-white racism" from the rooftop of a building overlooking Place de la Republique. Crowds watched from the ground as anti-racism protesters tried to rip down the banner, as the counter demonstrators scaled the roof of the building, holding flares. Protests have been taking place around the world over the death of African American George Floyd in Minneapolis after a white policeman knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes last month. The wave of protests has drawn counter-demonstrators to the streets, with activists rallying on Saturday in Paris as well as in the UK.

Hundreds protest against Nepal's coronavirus response; police arrest 10

Date:JUNE 13, 2020 Police in Nepal arrested 10 people, including seven foreigners, on Saturday (June 13) as demonstrations against the government's handling of the coronavirus crisis continued with hundreds of protesters gathering in the capital city Kathmandu, officials said. The Himalayan nation imposed a complete lockdown in March after reporting its second confirmed coronavirus case. But the number of infections have since increased to 5,062, with 16 deaths, and the government has come under fire for not doing enough to contain the outbreak. Police officials said an estimated 1,000 people had gathered on a major thoroughfare in Kathmandu for the third day, where seven foreign nationals were arrested. Earlier this week, police used baton charges, water cannons and tear gas to break up protests near the prime minister's residence. No such clashes took place on Saturday. Protesters are demanding better quarantine facilities, more tests and transparency in the purchase of medical supplies to fight the crisis. Nepal's government says it has spent about $89 million to fight the pandemic, has conducted around 310,000 tests and quarantined some 158,000 people. But activists insist this is not enough in a country of 30 million people. (Production: Sagar Adhikari, Yubaraj Sharma) (Caption:6007AS-HEALTH-CORONAVIRUS_NEPAL)

Filipinos protest against anti-terrorism bill on Independence Day

Date:JUNE 12, 2020 Over 1,000 Filipinos gathered on a university campus on Friday (June 12) to protest against a new anti-terrorism bill that was recently approved by the country's congress. The demonstration was spearheaded by activists and held at the University of the Philippines on Independence Day. Braving sporadic rainfall, protesters held placards and chanted slogans such as "junk terror bill" and "activists not terrorists". The bill has drawn concern from lawyers and human rights activists who fear it could be used to suppress free speech and harass those who challenge President Rodrigo Duterte. The anti-terrorism bill was approved by the Philippine congress on June 3, and currently awaits Duterte's signature before it can be enacted.

China lambasts UK's 'interference' in Hong Kong affairs

Date:JUNE 12, 2020 China on Friday (June 12) lambasted a report by Britain criticizing Beijing's plans for national security legislation, accusing it of interfering in Hong Kong affairs, and noting Britain has no jurisdiction in the territory. The British government said the proposed security law was a clear violation of China's international obligations and a breach of the "one country, two systems" formula that has governed the former British colony since its handover to Chinese rule in 1997. "The more foreign forces interfere in Hong Kong, the more resolute China is to push forward the national security legislation," said Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying at a daily briefing. On Thursday (June 11), U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said he was working on various capital markets responses to the security law, including some measures that could restrict capital flows through the territory. "If the U.S. takes actions to harm the interests of Hong Kong, I think it will only backfire on itself in the end," Hua said in response.

Statues of Belgium's colonial-era kings targeted by activists

Date:JUNE 12, 2020 Statues of former kings of Belgium were targeted by activists during the night from Thursday to Friday (June 12). A statue of King Baudouin - Belgium's second-longest reigning monarch after Leopold II - was found smeared in bright red paint in a park in front of Brussels' Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula. The word "reparation" was painted on the back. During the same night, a statue of Belgium's King Leopold II was removed from its plinth by a group of activists in the Brussels neighbourhood of Auderghem during the night of Thursday, Belgian broadcaster RTBF reported, saying it witnessed the event. There was just an empty plinth left on Friday morning and no sign of the statue of the king, who was sovereign of the Congo Free State for much of his rein from 1865 to 1908. Statues of the colonial-era monarch, whose troops killed and maimed millions of people in Congo, have become a focus of anger and debate in Belgium amid worldwide protests that followed the killing of black American George Floyd on May 25. A number of representations of Leopold II have been vandalised, with statues burnt and daubed in red paint.

Hong Kongers vow to keep protesting on anniversary of major demonstration

Date:JUNE 12, 2020 In defiance of social distancing laws, hundreds gathered across Hong Kong on Friday (June 12) to mark the anniversary of a major protest that saw a turning point in the city's pro-democracy movement. Mask wearing protesters gathered in the working class district of Mong Kok and in a shopping mall in Sha Tin district and sang the movement's unofficial anthem "Glory to Hong Kong," while riot police carrying pepper spray canisters carried out mass stop and searches. Protesters who were defying social gathering limits of eight people imposed due to the coronavirus pandemic, vowed to keep on protesting. On June 12 last year, police fired tear gas and rubber bullets as protesters rallied in the heart of the business district against a proposed bill that would have allowed extradition's to mainland China. While the bill was withdrawn in September, the protest movement evolved into broader appeals for democracy in the city amid fears Beijing was reneging on its pledge to give Hong Kongers freedoms not enjoyed in the mainland. Further protests are planned in the city on Friday night. (Production: Joyce Zhou, Yoyo Chow, Pak Yiu, Peter Brownlie, Louisa Naks) (Caption:5028AS-HONGKONG-PROTESTS_ANNIVERSARY_PROTESTS)
