UN Mideast envoy: Israel, Hamas were ‘minutes away’ from war-Nikolay Mladenov tells Security Council unless sides begin to work for true change, 'another explosion is almost a certainty'; Israeli envoy Danon says Hamas 'holding Gaza hostage'-By Agencies and TOI staff-JUL 26,18
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The UN Mideast envoy said Tuesday that Israel and Hamas were “minutes away” from another “devastating confrontation” in Gaza on Saturday — a clash averted after UN and Egyptian diplomatic efforts got both sides to “step back from the brink.”Nickolay Mladenov warned that “unless we begin in earnest the crucial work required to change the current deteriorating dynamics, another explosion is almost a certainty.”He told the Security Council that he had just returned from Gaza and “the situation is calming down although tensions remain,” warning that the still “perilous” face-off could lead to the fourth war in a decade between Hamas and Israel.“Only through the repeated, collective efforts of all sides has another catastrophic escalation been averted over the past weeks,” Mladenov said.The latest outbursts of violence followed months of near-weekly violent border protests organized by Gaza’s Hamas rulers. Over 130 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli gunfire since the protests began March 30 — a large number of them members of terror groups.Israel said its troops were defending the border and accused Hamas of trying to carry out terror attacks under the cover of the protests.Hamas has said the “March of Return” protests are a demand for a “right of return” for descendants of Palestinian refugees to ancestral homes in what is now Israel — action that would bring about the end of Israel as a Jewish-majority state.They have also said the rallies are aimed at ending the Israeli-Egyptian blockade of Gaza that has brought severe economic hardship to the territory. Israel and Egypt maintain a blockade on the Strip to prevent Hamas from rearming and acquiring building materials for fortifications or attack tunnels.Israel’s UN ambassador, Danny Danon said Tuesday flaming kites sent across the border at Hamas’s behest have destroyed over 7,400 acres — “that is half the size of Manhattan.”He said it is time that the Security Council declares Hamas a terrorist organization like al-Qaeda and the Islamic State group, saying it is “holding hostage the entire population of Gaza” and its goal is to destroy Israel.Danon again urged Hamas to release two Israeli civilians and the bodies of two soldiers. “One cannot demand humanitarian assistance to Gaza, which we support, while refusing to ensure the basic humanitarian rights of returning our captives and our fallen,” he said.Palestinian Authority ambassador Riyad Mansour said the “dire humanitarian situation has placed an explosive pressure on the infrastructure and caused loss of livelihood among the entire population of the Gaza Strip.”He accused Israel of persisting “with its willful killing of Palestinian civilians and disregard of human life,” and said it is “imperative” that international protection be provided for Gaza’s civilian population.Mansour said it is also imperative to mobilize funds for the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, known as UNRWA, “given its vital role in Gaza and beyond.”UNRWA is facing a funding crisis following the Trump administration’s decision to cut some $300 million to the agency this year. It is now reviewing some $200 million in assistance for the Palestinians.US Ambassador Nikki Haley made no mention of the cuts to UNRWA in her speech, which accused Arab and Islamic nations of being generous with their words in support of the Palestinians but not opening their wallets.She said Iran, Algeria and Tunisia gave nothing to UNRWA last year and Pakistan and Egypt gave just $20,000. While Turkey gave $6.7 million, Kuwait $9 million and the United Arab Emirates $12.8 million, she said the United States gave $364 million to UNRWA last year — plus an additional $300 million to the Palestinians in bilateral aid.Since 1993, Haley said, the United States has provided over $6 billion in assistance to Palestinians.“How much have the Arab countries — some of whom are wealthy countries — how much have they given to the Palestinians?” Haley asked. “It does not come anywhere close to what the United States has done.”Saudi Arabia’s ambassador, Abdallah Al-Mouallimi, had a sharp reply, though he didn’t mention the United States, which is a close ally.He said Saudi Arabia gave $100 million to UNRWA over the past year, $1 billion to UNRWA over the last two decades, “and more than $6 billion, with a B, to the Palestinian people over the last two decades in the form of humanitarian development.“Saudi Arabia strongly believes in actions, not words,” Al-Mouallimi said.Israel also drew sharp criticism at the council’s monthly Mideast meeting from many countries over last week’s approval by its parliament of a bill defining it as the nation-state of the Jewish people.Mansour, the Palestinian ambassador, said the new law “has transformed a situation of de facto apartheid into a situation of apartheid by law.”Deputy Iranian ambassador Eshagh Al Habib said the law means the legalization of “racism and apartheid, and ultimately, it means legitimizing exclusion, segregation and systemic inequality.”He recalled the General Assembly’s 1975 resolution calling Zionism “a form of racism and racial discrimination” that was revoked in 1991. Nearly 30 years later, Al Habib said, “it is crystal clear that by doing so, the UN General Assembly has only emboldened Israel to legalize racism.”Israeli leaders have insisted the law is needed to enshrine’s Israel status as the nation-state of the Jews. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called it “a pivotal moment in the annals of Zionism and the State of Israel.”
Syria says response to fighter jet’s downing ‘will come soon enough’ — report-Official tells Lebanese news site 'Damascus is in no hurry to enter a war with Israel' but promises a reaction; Syria said to protest to Israeli officials over incident-By TOI staff and AP-JUL 26,18
A Syrian official warned Tuesday night that his country will respond “soon enough” to the IDF shooting down a regime fighter jet after it entered Israel’s airspace, according to a Lebanese news site.“Damascus is in no hurry to enter a war with Israel,” the unnamed source told El Nashra, but added that “the response to the downing of the jet will come soon enough.”The official claimed Israel supports “terrorist centers” in southern Syria, and shot down the jet to stop the regime’s operations against them.The first step of the Syrian response would be to complete operations against those centers, he said. Afterwards “the direct response to the Israeli forces will come at the appropriate time.”The third part of the response would be to “foil any attempt to push Syria’s allies away from the (border) area.”Israel said it shot down the Sukhoi-model jet with a pair of Patriot missiles Tuesday after it breached some two kilometers inside Israel territory in the Golan Heights. The plane crashed inside Syria, reportedly killing its pilot.Israel’s ambassador to the UN Danny Danon said Israel tried to contact the pilot several times but received no response, and so proceeded to intercept.According to the Ynet news site Russia protested Israel’s actions, with officials claiming the fighter had not breached Israeli airspace as Jerusalem has claimed. Israel subsequently provided them with a clear radar image proving its assertion, the report said.The Kan public broadcaster reported that Israel had warned Moscow of the potential of military “spillover” into Israel as the regime’s forces continue to advance against rebel forces in the border area.Kan reported that the IDF has filed a complaint with UNDOF, the UN peacekeeping force in the Golan Heights, over the jet incident. Though Israel believes the fighter pilot likely made a navigational error while carrying out bombing runs against rebel-held areas, officials still view the incident as a serious breach of Israeli sovereignty, it said.The IDF is on “elevated alert” along the northern border because of the fighting on the Syrian side of the fence, military spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus said.Danon said Israel seeks “no escalation in the region” but will protect its border.“Israel will not tolerate any violation of our sovereignty — not from Syria, not from Gaza, not from any other enemy that threatens our security,” he said.Syrian rebels surrendered their last pockets in the southwestern Quneitra and Daraa provinces last week, leading thousands of opposition fighters, their families and other civilians to evacuate to the rebel-held province of Idlib in northern Syria.On Tuesday, government forces reached the border fence where a UN peacekeeping force is deployed at the edge of the Golan Heights for the first time since 2011, when an uprising swept through Syria against President Bashar Assad.Minutes before the reported downing of the jet, Syria’s state-run Al-Ikhbariya TV was broadcasting footage from the fence demarcating the UN buffer zone between Syrian and Israeli forces in the Golan Heights. A UN observer post could be seen just on the other side of the fence. The camera showed an Israeli post 400 meters (440 yards) away.
Ivanka Trump to shut down her clothing company-Fashion brand hit by boycotts and slowing sales, but president's daughter says she is closing company to focus on her work as a White House adviser-By Bernard Condon-TOI-JUL 26,18
NEW YORK, United States (AP) — Ivanka Trump is shutting down her fashion line of dresses, shoes and handbags that became a target of political boycotts and spurred concerns about conflicts of interest after her father was elected.The president’s daughter said in a statement she made the decision so she could focus more on work as a White House adviser. She had stepped away from the day-to-day management of her company when she joined President Donald Trump’s administration.“After 17 months in Washington, I do not know when or if I will ever return to the business, but I do know that my focus for the foreseeable future will be the work I am doing here in Washington,” she said. She called the move the “only fair outcome for my team and partners.”The Ivanka Trump brand has been buffeted by politics since she joined the White House early last year. Sales appeared to surge at times due her celebrity as the US president’s daughter — White House adviser Kellyanne Conway once urged on Fox News for people to “go buy Ivanka’s stuff” — only to get battered as those who disliked her father’s policies urged shoppers to boycott the line.Nordstrom dropped the Ivanka Trump line last year, citing slowing sales, and recently Hudson Bay reportedly did the same.The company said that its business was strong, and the decision to shut down had nothing do with its performance. Shutting down the brand means 18 people will lose their jobs.Analyst Neil Saunders, managing director of GlobalData Retail, said that “while the company is still viable, doing business has become far more challenging and these problems will only increase.”Ivanka Trump recently has been encouraging US companies to pledge to hire American workers. Her own company has been criticized for making its products in Chinese factories, for the conditions in those factories, and for being granted trademarks by foreign governments such as China that would want to curry favor with the president.Her announcement comes amid a worsening trade fight between the United States and China. President Trump is seeking to drive China to the negotiating table and rectify what he sees as years of unfair trade practices.The White House has imposed tariffs on $34 billion of Chinese imports and has itemized a list of $200 billion more in goods that may face tariffs by September. Neither of those tariffs would cover the clothing and handbags Ivanka Trump sells. But if the president were to make good on his threat to tax all $500 billion in Chinese imports, that would raise the price of everything her company imports from that country.Since it is a private company, it is difficult to judge just how well Ivanka Trump’s business has been faring. The bulk of her assets —more than $50 million worth — is contained in a trust that holds her business and corporations. The trust generated over $5 million in revenue last year, according to a financial disclosure report filed with the government.When Ivanka Trump joined the White House as adviser to her father, she agreed to several restrictions so that her financial interest in the business would not conflict with her public role as a White House adviser.Still, the company drew criticism for benefiting from her White House ties.In April last year, the Chinese government granted her company provisional approval for three new trademarks, the same day she and her husband Jared Kushner dined with the president of China and his wife at President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort. The approvals have continued. In three months through May this year, China granted final approval for 13 of her trademarks and provisional approval for another eight.Ivanka Trump’s company has said the 2017 Chinese trademarks were filed defensively to protect against squatters using her name. China has said its trademarks policy regarding Ivanka Trump’s company is in line with normal legal practice.The Ivanka Trump brand has also come under criticism for conditions at factories where its products were made. The Associated Press spoke with workers last year at an Ivanka Trump shoe factory in Ganzhou, China, who described long hours, low pay and abuse.The company said at the time that the “integrity” of its supply chain was a “top priority” and that it takes such allegations “very seriously.”
Lebanese man indicted for contacting Israeli army personnel — report-Local media says defendant accused of contacting IDF's Arabic spokesman, another soldier and offering information, though his overtures were ignored-By TOI staff-JUL 26,18
A Lebanese man was indicted Tuesday for allegedly attempting to contact the Israeli military for the purpose of working with Israel and providing it with beneficial information, the National News Agency, a state-run Lebanese outlet reported.The indictment authored by Riyad Abu Ghaidah, Lebanon’s chief military investigative judge, said Mustafa D. messaged “the Israeli enemy’s army spokesman Avichai Adraee” by way of Facebook, the NNA report stated. It did not mention the defendant’s full name. The indictment also said Mustafa told Adraee that he likes his ideas and expressed to the spokesman that he wants peace with Israel, the report stated.The indictment noted that Adraee did not respond to Mustafa’s message.Adraee is the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman. He has a Facebook page which garners comments from Arabs around the Middle East on a daily basis.Adraee declined to comment on the matter.The indictment also noted that Mustafa wrote to another Israeli soldier by way of Facebook Messenger about his desire to make Israeli friends and communicate with them about “logistical matters,” and told the soldier he had information that could help Israel. The soldier was also uncooperative.According to the charges Mustafa told interrogators he had contacted Israeli military personnel due to his difficult financial state and his failure to find a job.Prosecutors are seeking a punishment of hard labor for Mustafa. It was not clear when his trial will begin.
Despite US cuts, Haley accuses world of failing to fund Palestinians-At Security Council, US envoy rebukes Iran and others for giving speeches but no cash to UNRWA; vows US won't continue 'feeding hands that bite'-By Raphael Ahren-TOI-26 July 2018
US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley on Tuesday rebuked the international community for pontificating about the Palestinians’ suffering but failing to substantially support them financially, defending the US’s own cuts to Ramallah and Gaza.At a session dedicated to the Middle East, Haley castigated the Muslim world and stressed that no other nation was giving nearly as much money to Palestinian causes as the US, even after the US drastically cut its support for the UN’s refugee agency for Palestinians and also slashed aid over stipends paid to terror convicts and their families.“Country after country claims solidarity with the Palestinian people. If those words were useful in the schools, the hospitals, and the streets of their communities, the Palestinian people would not be facing the desperate conditions we are discussing here today,” Haley said. “Talk is cheap.”Iran, Algeria, and Tunisia, for instance, last year contributed zero dollars to UNRWA, Haley said. Egypt gave $20,000, Turkey $6.7 million, and the United Arab Emirates $12.8 million.“If you judge a nation’s commitment to the Palestinian people by the words heard in this chamber, you might come to the conclusion that the United States has been less generous, simply because we stand proudly with our ally Israel here at the UN,” Haley said.“But once again, this conclusion would be entirely false.”Just last year, the US donated $364 million to Palestinian causes, she said.“And that’s on top of what the American people give annually to the Palestinians in bilateral assistance. That is another 300 million dollars just last year, and it averages to more than a quarter of a billion dollars every year since 1993,” she claimed.Moments before Haley spoke, the UN’s special coordinator for the Middle East peace process, Nickolay Mladenov, said the Trump administration’s freezing of millions of dollars of funding earmarked for UNRWA had thrust the organization in dire straits.UNRWA’s financial crisis “remains a very serious concern,” he told the council, speaking via satellite from his Jerusalem office.“At present, UNRWA needs $217 million to sustain its work for this year. I urge the swift mobilization of support to enable the continuity of assistance and a maintenance of stability on the ground in the region,” he said.Given the current shortfall, UNRWA might have to delay the start of the school year for some 526,000 students in schools run by the agency throughout its areas of operation, Mladenov warned.In an opinion piece published in the Washington Post last week, US officials Jared Kushner, Jason Greenblatt, and David Friedman said donors were unwilling to donate money to help Gaza’s humanitarian situation as long as Hamas remained in power.The trio said the US would offer money to the beleaguered enclave in exchange for Hamas stopping terror activity and returning the captive Israelis and the remains of soldiers.Russia’s deputy ambassador to the UN, Dmitry Polyanskiy, warned that the UNRWA shortfall “could lead to serious consequences.”#Polyanskiy: The only possible way towards a settlement in the #MiddleEast is a direct dialogue between the parties, we are ready to facilitate it.Our initiative to hold a Palestinian-Israeli summit in Russia remains on table, it has already been supported by the Palestinian side pic.twitter.com/1Z3KVnF1xB— Russian Mission UN (@RussiaUN) July 24, 2018-The Russian envoy also reiterated his government’s willingness to facilitate a meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and PA President Mahmoud Abbas in Moscow.“The only possible way towards a settlement in the Middle East is a direct dialogue between the parties, we are ready to facilitate it,” he said. “Our initiative to hold a Palestinian-Israeli summit in Russia remains on table, it has already been supported by the Palestinian side.”-‘Imagine half of Manhattan going up in flames’ Haley also said that while the US supported Palestinians causes, the administration would not “feed the hand that bites” them, referring to bitter criticism by the Palestinian Authority on the White House’s policies toward the region.“We are not fools,” she said.Israel’s ambassador to the UN Danny Danon accused Hamas of burning over 7,400 acres of land with incendiary balloons and kites launched into Israel.“Just imagine if half of Manhattan would go up in flames as a result of terrorism,” he said.“Too many people in this building have forgotten what Hamas truly is: a murderous terrorist organization that terrorizes Israel and holds Gazans hostage,” Danon said.“And as Hamas is a growing international problem, the time has come for the Security Council to recognize that Hamas is no different from al-Qaeda or ISIS. The Security Council must recognize Hamas as a terrorist organization.”
Japan hosts multinational drills to intercept weapons at sea-[Associated Press]-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
ABOARD THE MURASAME (AP) — Japan is hosting a multinational security exercise off Tokyo's southern coast aimed at intercepting shipments of missiles and other weapons of mass destruction at sea.Japanese navy sailors and their counterparts from the U.S. and Australia and the South Korean coast guard joined Wednesday's exercise.Participants took turns stopping and raiding a target boat found at sea. Journalists observed from the Japanese destroyer Murasame.Thirty countries, including six core members of the Proliferation Security Initiative participated, along with 20 observers and four non-members.The initiative started in 2003 as part of Washington's effort to block shipments of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons, as well as missiles to carry them.The initiative does not target any specific country, but North Korea has criticized it in the past.
Police ID girl killed in Danforth rampage as Julianna Kozis-[CBC]-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
Police have released the name of the 10-year-old girl killed in the mass shooting in Toronto's Danforth neighbourhood on Sunday.Julianna Kozis of Markham was killed in the shooting that also claimed the life of 18-year-old Reese Fallon and injured 13 others."Her family has requested privacy during their time of grief," the Toronto Police Service said in a statement. Police have refused to confirm where along the Danforth Avenue strip Kozis was shot. However, a witness who spoke with CBC News on Monday said he tended to a seriously wounded young girl of about the same age. Md Ashaduzzaman was working in the back kitchen at Caffe Demetre when the shooting started. A woman in the café was soon screaming for help, saying her daughter had been shot.The café, at 400 Danforth Ave., has been identified as the third shooting site along the gunman's deadly rampage.The girl, about 10 years old by his estimate, was lying on the ground, bleeding from her leg as her mother tried to stop the bleeding with a cloth. "I was trying to hold her and I was trying to wake her up. She was falling asleep, her eyes were closing and opening, closing and opening," Ashaduzzaman said.The 29-year-old gunman, identified Monday as Faisal Hussain, also died.Toronto city Coun. Jim Karygiannis told The Canadian Press via email that he knows the girl's family and that her death is a "devastation" to the community."She had her whole life ahead of her, only to be taken in a senseless act of terror," Karygiannis said Tuesday night.Markham Mayor Frank Scarpitti said Sunday's "senseless act of violence has shaken us and hurt us."We stand with the victims, the brave first responders and all the communities impacted by this tragedy," he said in a statement.Markham plans to lower its flags in Kozis's memory and place a book of condolences at the local civic centre."We hope by coming together, we can offer some solace in a time of great sadness."

Nineteen dead, more than 3,000 in need of rescue, after Laos dam collapse - media-[Reuters]-By Amy Sawitta Lefevre-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
BANGKOK (Reuters) - Nineteen people have been confirmed dead and more than 3,000 need to be rescued after a dam collapsed in a remote part of land-locked Laos, local media reported on Wednesday.The Vientiane Times, citing district governor Bounhom Phommasane, said about 19 people have been "found dead", more than 3,000 "require rescue" and about 2,851 have been saved.Earlier, a senior Lao government official, who declined to be identified because he was not authorized to speak to the media, said dozens of people were feared dead after the hydropower dam that was under construction collapsed on Monday."We will continue with rescue efforts today but it's very difficult, the conditions are very difficult. Dozens of people are dead. It could be higher," the Vientiane-based official told Reuters by telephone.A United Nations report on the disaster put the death toll at five with 34 missing, 1,494 evacuated and 11,777 people in 357 villages affected. It said 20 houses were destroyed and more than 223 houses and 14 bridges damaged by the flooding.Hundreds were reported missing after walls of water washed away villages and rescuers on Wednesday continued to search floodwaters for survivors, a government official said.State media showed pictures of villagers, some with young children, stranded on the roofs of submerged houses. Others showed villagers trying to board wooden boats to safety in Attapeu province, the southernmost part of the country.At least seven villages have been submerged. State media pictures showed one-storey homes flooded with muddy water.The remoteness of the affected area could hamper relief operations, say experts.Laos, one of the world's few remaining communist states and one of Asia's poorest countries, has an ambitious dam-building scheme in order to become the "battery of Asia".Its government depends almost entirely on outside developers to build its planned portfolio of dams under commercial concessions that agree to export electricity to its more developed neighbors, including power-hungry Thailand.Environment rights groups have repeatedly warned about the human and environmental cost of the rapid pace of dam construction, including damage to the already-fragile ecosystem of the region's rivers.Last year, the 15-megawatt Nam Ao hydropower dam collapsed in Laos' northern Xieng Khuong province, the Vientiane Times reported, resulting in flash floods that "damaged property and risked lives."-SUPPLY DAM WASHED AWAY-Attapeu is a largely agricultural province that borders Vietnam to the east and Cambodia to the south.The $1.2 billion dam that collapsed is part of the hydroelectric Xe-Pian Xe-Namnoy power project, which involves Laotian, Thai and South Korean firms. The subsidiary dam, known as "Saddle Dam D", was part of a network of two main dams and five subsidiary dams.South Korea's SK Engineering & Construction said part of a small supply dam was washed away and the company was cooperating with the Laos government to help rescue villagers near the site.The firm blamed the collapse on heavy rain. Laos, and its neighboring countries, are in the middle of the monsoon season when tropical storms and heavy rain can lead to flash floods.An official at the firm said fractures were first discovered on the dam on Sunday and that the company had ordered the evacuation of 12 villages as soon as it became clear the dam could collapse.Shares in major stakeholders of SK Engineering & Construction fell on Wednesday after news of the collapse.SK E&C's biggest shareholder, SK Holdings Co Ltd <034730 .ks="">, was down 6.2 percent, marking its biggest daily percentage loss since Feb. 11, 2016. The second biggest shareholder, SK Discovery Co Ltd <006120 .ks="">, slid as much as 10 percent.REMOTE LOCATION-Ian Baird, associate professor of geography at University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Laos expert, said the collapse of the subsidiary dam was unlikely to affect others in the project, but added that the dam can't be fixed until the dry season."I don't think its going to affect the other dams," Baird told Reuters in a telephone interview."The water's all out of the reservoir now and the water levels are already going down but I don't think they'll be able to fix it until the dry season," he said.South Korea, Singapore and neighboring Thailand have offered to help in the rescue effort. But the remoteness of the affected area and damage to roads and bridges will make it very difficult to reach those still stranded, Baird said."The roads are very poor in that area. People don't usually go in that area during the rainy season. There are mountains nearby that villagers might be able to get up on .... I don't think anybody really knows for sure," he said.International Rivers, which works to stop destructive hydropower projects in Laos, said in an April report that hydropower dams on the Mekong River's lower mainstream pose a serious threat to the region.Predicted impacts include a 30 percent to 40 percent decrease in fisheries by 2040 as well as a drastic reduction in food security and agricultural productivity, alongside increased poverty levels in much of the Lower Mekong Basin.Laos has completed construction of 11 dams, according to Thai non-governmental organization TERRA, with a further 11 under construction and dozens more planned.(Additional reporting by Fanny Potkin in JAKARTA and Heekyong Yang in SEOUL; Editing by Paul Tait and Michael Perry)

Bulgaria warns southern neighbors Greece, Turkey of floods-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
SOFIA (Reuters) - Bulgaria has warned its southern neighbors Greece and Turkey they could face floods as heavy rains are expected to swell the Arda and Maritsa rivers flowing into their territories.The alert came as Greek emergency services were struggling to deal with their worst wildfires in years.The Ivaylovgrad dam on the Arda in the eastern Rhodope Mountains would probably overflow in the next few days because of expected downpours, Bulgaria's foreign ministry said late on Tuesday.The Arda flows eastward into Greece and joins the Maritsa river on Greece's border with Turkey.Sofia said it was expecting massive increases in water volumes in the flood-prone Maritsa near the Bulgarian town of Svilengrad on the Turkish border on Wednesday and Thursday.Bulgarian authorities have declared states of emergency in several municipalities following heavy rainfall. A man died after being swept away by floodwaters in the Bulgarian town of Teteven on Tuesday.(Reporting by Angel Krasimirov)
Yosemite park sections to close due to smoke from California wildfire-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
(Reuters) - The Yosemite Valley and other parts of Yosemite National Park will close from Wednesday due to smoke from a raging California wildfire that is choking the air in the popular tourist destination, officials said on Tuesday.The so-called Ferguson Fire, which has been burning since July 13 and has claimed the life of one firefighter, had charred about 36,600 acres (14,800 hectares) to the south and west of the park and was 25 percent contained as of Tuesday afternoon, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.The park's Yosemite Valley, Wawona and Mariposa Grove are to be closed through at least Sunday due to the fire operations, the National Park Service said.Air quality in the area about 170 miles (275 kms) east of San Francisco was expected to be unhealthy to very unhealthy on Tuesday and Wednesday, according to the U.S. Forest Service Wildland Fire Air Quality Response Program."The Ferguson Fire is burning in steep, rugged terrain with little to no access roads," said Scott McLean, a spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.More than 3,300 personnel using 16 helicopters and bulldozers have been battling the blaze, which has led to evacuations in parts of the region.The fire is one of more than 65 major wildfires burning in the United States this week that have so far scorched an area of about 1.2 million acres (485,620 hectares). Most are in western states, with blazes also in central Texas and Wisconsin, according to the National Interagency Coordination Center.As of July 24, wildfires had burned through 3.94 million acres (1,594,460 hectares) this year, above the 10-year average for the same calendar period of 3.54 million acres (1,432,590 hectares), it said.(Reporting by Jon Herskovitz; Editing by Dan Grebler)
Greece scene of worst wildfires in Europe this century-[AFP]-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
Paris (AFP) - Greece, where wildfires raging near Athens, have claimed at least 74 lives, has previously been the scene of the deadliest fires in Europe this century.Here is a recap of the worst fires, which have also hit Portugal and Russia.- Portugal in 2017, 2003 -Sixty-four people were killed and 250 injured in the deadliest wildfires in Portugal's history in June 2017.The fires burned for five days in the central Leiria region, breaking out at the height of a summer heatwave. Many of the victims died trapped in their cars by the flames while trying to escape.Violent winds fanned the fires, ravaging some 460 square kilometres (around 180 square miles) of hillsides covered with pine and eucalyptus.In 2003 gigantic fires caused by a heatwave left 20 dead between July and September in central and southern Portugal.The summer of 2003 remains the most disastrous in terms of surface destroyed, with nearly 4,250 square kilometres going up in smoke.- Russia in 2015, 2010 -In April 2015 huge fires that started in the Khakassia region of southeastern Siberia killed 34 people as well as hundreds of cattle and thousands of sheep.The blaze, which spread as far as Mongolia and practically up to the Chinese border, also destroyed 2,000 homes and 10,000 square kilometres of land.Five years earlier, vast swathes of western Russia were ravaged by fires for weeks during an unprecedented heatwave and drought.The blazes between July and August 2010 tore through 10,000 square kilometres of forest, bogs and brushwood, burning entire villages.Some of the fires came dangerously close to Russia's top nuclear research centre in Sarov.- Greece in 2007 -Forest fires killed 77 people at the end of August 2007 in Greece, ravaging 2,500 square kilometres in the southern Peloponnese and the island of Evia, northeast of Athens.The fires raged for around 12 days, but most of the victims were killed early on in the disaster when they became trapped in villages cut off by the flames, some ignoring orders to evacuate.- France, worst ever in 1949 -The heaviest loss of life in wildfires in Europe was in France when 82 people were killed battling flames in the southwest Landes region in August 1949.The victims -- firemen, volunteers and soldiers -- were caught in a ball of fire after the winds suddenly changed direction.
B.C. expands campfire bans amid wildfires and heat warnings-[The Canadian Press]-July 25, 2018
VANCOUVER — More campfire bans are being imposed as the fire danger rating rises along with temperatures in British Columbia.Starting Thursday, campfires will be prohibited in the Kamloops Fire Centre, where the majority of B.C.'s wildfires are currently burning.The Ministry of Forests has also limited burning on Haida Gwaii to small fires no more than half a metre high, as the archipelago experiences uncommonly dry conditions.The latest bans come as Environment Canada heat warnings cover several areas of the province, including eastern Vancouver Island, several Interior districts and the northeast corner of B.C. In the Okanagan Valley, where several lightning-caused fires have been burning for a week, the emergency support centre in West Kelowna has closed down as evacuation orders were lifted.The Central Okanagan Regional District says there are still almost 700 properties on evacuation alert, meaning residents should be ready to leave at a moment's notice.The Canadian Press.

Israel tried to contact Syrian pilot before shooting down jet, envoy to UN says-Army now reportedly believes plane crossed into Israel accidentally, but Danny Danon says military had to act quickly without knowing its intention-By TOI staff and AP-24 July 2018
Israel’s ambassador to the UN Danny Danon said Tuesday that Israel tried to contact the pilot of a Syrian jet before shooting down his plane after it entered Israeli airspace.Addressing the Security Council’s monthly meeting on the Middle East, Danon said the IDF observed the plane “crossing the border…. We tried to contact a few times, and there was no response.”Israel said it shot down the Sukhoi-model jet with a pair of Patriot missiles after it breached some two kilometers inside Israel territory in the Golan Heights.There was no time to “wait to see what are the real intentions of the pilot,” Danon said, adding that “that’s what any other country will do in a similar situation.”The Israel Defense Forces now believes the pilot likely strayed into Israeli territory by mistake while carrying out bombing runs against rebel-held areas near the border, according to Israeli media reports.The IDF is on “elevated alert” along the northern border because of the fighting on the Syrian side of the fence, said military spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus.Danon said Israel seeks “no escalation in the region.” According to Israeli reports, the IDF does not intend to shoot down every jet that enters Israeli airspace, but will act to intercept rockets or drones.“The only thing we can do is to protect our civilians,” Danon said.“Israel will not tolerate any violation of our sovereignty — not from Syria, not from Gaza, not from any other enemy that threatens our security,” he said.The plane reportedly crashed inside Syria, killing its pilot. The fate of a second crewman is unknown, Syrian reports said. Israeli reports indicated there was only one pilot in the plane, however.Syria’s military said its jet was targeted by Israel over Syrian territory as it flew sorties against Islamic State militants near the border. Regime forces have been battling rebels and IS fighters near the Israeli border for weeks in a campaign to restore President Bashar Assad’s rule over southwestern Syria.Israel has stressed it would enforce the ceasefire lines between the two countries.“This is a blatant violation of the 1974 separation agreements between Israel and Syria,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement. “We will not accept any intrusion or spillage into our territory, either from the ground or from the air.”Israel has warned Syria through various channels not to violate the 1974 agreement, Conricus said.Syrian rebels surrendered their last pockets in the southwestern Quneitra and Daraa provinces last week, leading thousands of opposition fighters, their families and other civilians to evacuate to the rebel-held province of Idlib in northern Syria.On Tuesday, government forces reached the border fence where a UN peacekeeping force is deployed at the edge of the Golan Heights for the first time since 2011, when an uprising swept through Syria against Assad.Minutes before the reported downing of the jet, Syria’s state-run Al-Ikhbariya TV was broadcasting footage from the fence demarcating the UN buffer zone between Syrian and Israeli forces in the Golan Heights. A UN observer post could be seen just on the other side of the fence.The camera showed an Israeli post 400 meters (440 yards) away.
Fighting may last months in last IS holdout in Syria, warns French general-French coalition official says US-backed troops unsure how many jihadists remain in Deir Ezzor, but 'we want to make sure we kill all of them'-By AFP-TOI-JUL 26,18
WASHINGTON — The Islamic State group in Syria now controls only a small pocket of terrain, a French military official said Tuesday, though he cautioned fighting there could take several more months.Brigadier General Frederic Parisot, who heads civil-military operations for the US-led coalition fighting IS in Syria and Iraq, told Pentagon reporters the jihadists now hold an area of about 30 by 10 kilometers (18 by six miles).This terrain is located in eastern Deir Ezzor province, and includes the town of Hajin, about 50 kilometers (30 miles) from Iraq’s border.Parisot said the fight against IS would last “for at least two or three months” and noted that a few hundred jihadists remain.“We don’t know how many. But we want to make sure that we kill all of them,” he said.Pentagon officials added that since April 24, the coalition has killed six IS leaders and planners in strikes.IS declared a cross-border “caliphate” in Syria and Iraq in 2014, seizing a third of Iraq and vast chunks of northern Syria during a sweeping offensive.The jihadists have since lost almost all the ground to separate counter-offensives by Syrian and Iraqi forces as well as US-led operations.In December the Iraqi government declared victory over IS but the military has continued regular operations targeting mostly desert areas along the porous Syrian border.
Islamic State said to capture body of downed Syrian pilot-Plane shot down by Israel after crossing border said to have crashed in small pocket of land held by terror group in southwest Syria-By Agencies-TOI-JUL 26,18
An official based in Syria and allied with government forces said Tuesday that Islamic State fighters seized the body of a Syrian pilot whose jet was shot down by Israel.The pilot was identified as Col. Amran Mara’e. He was killed when his plane was shot down, a Syrian military source told Sputnik, a Russian government-backed news outlet.The fate of the other pilot remains unknown, said the official, who is with the so-called “Axis of Resistance” that is led by Iran and includes Iran, Syria, Hezbollah, and other groups fighting alongside Assad’s forces. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to reporters.According to Israeli reports, however, there was only one pilot in the plane.A non-Syrian source told Reuters the plane crashed in a pocket of land in Syria’s southwest still held by Islamic State rebels.The Israeli military said it monitored the advance of the Syrian Sukhoi fighter jet and shot it down with a pair of Patriot missiles after it penetrated Israeli airspace by about 2 kilometers (1.2 miles).Syria’s military, however, claimed the jet was targeted by Israel over Syrian territory as it flew sorties against Islamic State militants.Syrian forces have been battling rebels and IS fighters at the frontier with Israel for weeks, in a campaign to restore President Bashar Assad’s rule over southwestern Syria.On Tuesday, government forces reached the border fence where a UN peacekeeping force is deployed at the edge of the Golan Heights. It was the first time the Syrian government had managed to retake the area since 2011, when an uprising swept through Syria against Assad.Israel captured the Golan Heights from Syria in 1967. The UN deployed peacekeepers between the two sides in 1974 as part of a treaty following 1973’s Yom Kippur War.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the breach of Israeli territory a “blatant violation” of the 1974 agreement that established the demilitarized zone between Israel and Syria.“I have reiterated and made clear that we will not accept any such violation. We will not accept any such penetration of or spillover into our territory, neither on the ground nor from the air,” he said in a statement.Israel’s military has been on “elevated alert” along the frontier because of activity on the Syrian side of the fence, said military spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus. Israel has warned Syria through various channels not to violate the 1974 agreement, he added.Minutes before the downing of the jet, Syria’s state-run Al-Ikhbariya TV was broadcasting footage from the fence demarcating the UN buffer zone between Syrian and Israeli forces in the Golan Heights. A UN observer post could be seen just on the other side of the fence.The camera showed an Israeli post 400 meters (440 yards) away.Israel’s military said the Syrian jet took off from the T-4 air base, near Homs, where Iranian militias are believed to have a presence.The plane flew toward Israel at “relatively high speed” before breaching the country’s airspace, said Conricus. He said it was unknown if the plane deliberately crossed into Israel.The plane crashed in the southern part of the Syrian Golan Heights, he said.Judah Ari Gross contributed to this report.

Lapid doesn’t rule out evacuating Jordan Valley settlements for peace-During tour, Yesh Atid chairman voices support for ongoing military presence along Jordan river, but stops short of promising to keep residential communities-By Jacob Magid-TOI-JUL 26,18
JORDAN VALLEY — Yesh Atid party chairman Yair Lapid has left open the possibility of evacuating settlements in the West Bank portion of the Jordan Valley in a future peace deal.Lapid, who polls currently indicate has the best chance of defeating Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the next election, told residents several times throughout his Monday tour of the regional council that “the Jordan Valley would remain the security border of the state of Israel in any future agreement.”However, when asked whether he was endorsing retaining a civilian presence along the Jordan Valley in addition to a military one, the opposition lawmaker offered a more nuanced response.“Not for nothing did I say it will remain the ‘security’ border. Everyone can decipher on his own what that means,” he said.Pushed to elaborate, Lapid said he was not interested in showing his cards.“The great mistake of the Israeli left over generations has been its willingness to always starts negotiations by announcing what it will give up and what it will not give up,” the Yesh Atid chairman explained, still leaving open the possibility of evacuating Jewish West Bank communities between the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea.The response differed from ones he gave regarding Jerusalem, which he asserted would forever function as Israel’s “united” capital, and on the Golan Heights, which he maintained would remain part of Israel under any deal.Still the Yesh Atid chairman offered his full support for the 21 Israeli communities in the regional council, praising the residents for their agricultural successes in the Jordan Valley’s less than ideal climate conditions.During a sit-down with several dozen residents of the Tomer settlement, locals highlighted their amicable relations with many of their Palestinian neighbors that they employ. They told Lapid that an “economic peace” was more realistic than other solutions proposed by the government.While the opposition lawmaker acknowledged the importance of grassroots initiatives that improve relations between Israelis and Palestinians on the ground, he said a plan by leaders was also necessary and that the one he endorses sees “Israel eventually separating from the Palestinians.”

UN Mideast envoy: Israel, Hamas were ‘minutes away’ from war-Nikolay Mladenov tells Security Council unless sides begin to work for true change, 'another explosion is almost a certainty'; Israeli envoy Danon says Hamas 'holding Gaza hostage'-By Agencies and TOI staff-JUL 26,18
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The UN Mideast envoy said Tuesday that Israel and Hamas were “minutes away” from another “devastating confrontation” in Gaza on Saturday — a clash averted after UN and Egyptian diplomatic efforts got both sides to “step back from the brink.”Nickolay Mladenov warned that “unless we begin in earnest the crucial work required to change the current deteriorating dynamics, another explosion is almost a certainty.”He told the Security Council that he had just returned from Gaza and “the situation is calming down although tensions remain,” warning that the still “perilous” face-off could lead to the fourth war in a decade between Hamas and Israel.“Only through the repeated, collective efforts of all sides has another catastrophic escalation been averted over the past weeks,” Mladenov said.The latest outbursts of violence followed months of near-weekly violent border protests organized by Gaza’s Hamas rulers. Over 130 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli gunfire since the protests began March 30 — a large number of them members of terror groups.Israel said its troops were defending the border and accused Hamas of trying to carry out terror attacks under the cover of the protests.Hamas has said the “March of Return” protests are a demand for a “right of return” for descendants of Palestinian refugees to ancestral homes in what is now Israel — action that would bring about the end of Israel as a Jewish-majority state.They have also said the rallies are aimed at ending the Israeli-Egyptian blockade of Gaza that has brought severe economic hardship to the territory. Israel and Egypt maintain a blockade on the Strip to prevent Hamas from rearming and acquiring building materials for fortifications or attack tunnels.Israel’s UN ambassador, Danny Danon said Tuesday flaming kites sent across the border at Hamas’s behest have destroyed over 7,400 acres — “that is half the size of Manhattan.”He said it is time that the Security Council declares Hamas a terrorist organization like al-Qaeda and the Islamic State group, saying it is “holding hostage the entire population of Gaza” and its goal is to destroy Israel.Danon again urged Hamas to release two Israeli civilians and the bodies of two soldiers. “One cannot demand humanitarian assistance to Gaza, which we support, while refusing to ensure the basic humanitarian rights of returning our captives and our fallen,” he said.Palestinian Authority ambassador Riyad Mansour said the “dire humanitarian situation has placed an explosive pressure on the infrastructure and caused loss of livelihood among the entire population of the Gaza Strip.”He accused Israel of persisting “with its willful killing of Palestinian civilians and disregard of human life,” and said it is “imperative” that international protection be provided for Gaza’s civilian population.Mansour said it is also imperative to mobilize funds for the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, known as UNRWA, “given its vital role in Gaza and beyond.”UNRWA is facing a funding crisis following the Trump administration’s decision to cut some $300 million to the agency this year. It is now reviewing some $200 million in assistance for the Palestinians.US Ambassador Nikki Haley made no mention of the cuts to UNRWA in her speech, which accused Arab and Islamic nations of being generous with their words in support of the Palestinians but not opening their wallets.She said Iran, Algeria and Tunisia gave nothing to UNRWA last year and Pakistan and Egypt gave just $20,000. While Turkey gave $6.7 million, Kuwait $9 million and the United Arab Emirates $12.8 million, she said the United States gave $364 million to UNRWA last year — plus an additional $300 million to the Palestinians in bilateral aid.Since 1993, Haley said, the United States has provided over $6 billion in assistance to Palestinians.“How much have the Arab countries — some of whom are wealthy countries — how much have they given to the Palestinians?” Haley asked. “It does not come anywhere close to what the United States has done.”Saudi Arabia’s ambassador, Abdallah Al-Mouallimi, had a sharp reply, though he didn’t mention the United States, which is a close ally.He said Saudi Arabia gave $100 million to UNRWA over the past year, $1 billion to UNRWA over the last two decades, “and more than $6 billion, with a B, to the Palestinian people over the last two decades in the form of humanitarian development.“Saudi Arabia strongly believes in actions, not words,” Al-Mouallimi said.Israel also drew sharp criticism at the council’s monthly Mideast meeting from many countries over last week’s approval by its parliament of a bill defining it as the nation-state of the Jewish people.Mansour, the Palestinian ambassador, said the new law “has transformed a situation of de facto apartheid into a situation of apartheid by law.”Deputy Iranian ambassador Eshagh Al Habib said the law means the legalization of “racism and apartheid, and ultimately, it means legitimizing exclusion, segregation and systemic inequality.”He recalled the General Assembly’s 1975 resolution calling Zionism “a form of racism and racial discrimination” that was revoked in 1991. Nearly 30 years later, Al Habib said, “it is crystal clear that by doing so, the UN General Assembly has only emboldened Israel to legalize racism.”Israeli leaders have insisted the law is needed to enshrine’s Israel status as the nation-state of the Jews. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called it “a pivotal moment in the annals of Zionism and the State of Israel.”
Syria says response to fighter jet’s downing ‘will come soon enough’ — report-Official tells Lebanese news site 'Damascus is in no hurry to enter a war with Israel' but promises a reaction; Syria said to protest to Israeli officials over incident-By TOI staff and AP-JUL 26,18
A Syrian official warned Tuesday night that his country will respond “soon enough” to the IDF shooting down a regime fighter jet after it entered Israel’s airspace, according to a Lebanese news site.“Damascus is in no hurry to enter a war with Israel,” the unnamed source told El Nashra, but added that “the response to the downing of the jet will come soon enough.”The official claimed Israel supports “terrorist centers” in southern Syria, and shot down the jet to stop the regime’s operations against them.The first step of the Syrian response would be to complete operations against those centers, he said. Afterwards “the direct response to the Israeli forces will come at the appropriate time.”The third part of the response would be to “foil any attempt to push Syria’s allies away from the (border) area.”Israel said it shot down the Sukhoi-model jet with a pair of Patriot missiles Tuesday after it breached some two kilometers inside Israel territory in the Golan Heights. The plane crashed inside Syria, reportedly killing its pilot.Israel’s ambassador to the UN Danny Danon said Israel tried to contact the pilot several times but received no response, and so proceeded to intercept.According to the Ynet news site Russia protested Israel’s actions, with officials claiming the fighter had not breached Israeli airspace as Jerusalem has claimed. Israel subsequently provided them with a clear radar image proving its assertion, the report said.The Kan public broadcaster reported that Israel had warned Moscow of the potential of military “spillover” into Israel as the regime’s forces continue to advance against rebel forces in the border area.Kan reported that the IDF has filed a complaint with UNDOF, the UN peacekeeping force in the Golan Heights, over the jet incident. Though Israel believes the fighter pilot likely made a navigational error while carrying out bombing runs against rebel-held areas, officials still view the incident as a serious breach of Israeli sovereignty, it said.The IDF is on “elevated alert” along the northern border because of the fighting on the Syrian side of the fence, military spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus said.Danon said Israel seeks “no escalation in the region” but will protect its border.“Israel will not tolerate any violation of our sovereignty — not from Syria, not from Gaza, not from any other enemy that threatens our security,” he said.Syrian rebels surrendered their last pockets in the southwestern Quneitra and Daraa provinces last week, leading thousands of opposition fighters, their families and other civilians to evacuate to the rebel-held province of Idlib in northern Syria.On Tuesday, government forces reached the border fence where a UN peacekeeping force is deployed at the edge of the Golan Heights for the first time since 2011, when an uprising swept through Syria against President Bashar Assad.Minutes before the reported downing of the jet, Syria’s state-run Al-Ikhbariya TV was broadcasting footage from the fence demarcating the UN buffer zone between Syrian and Israeli forces in the Golan Heights. A UN observer post could be seen just on the other side of the fence. The camera showed an Israeli post 400 meters (440 yards) away.
Ivanka Trump to shut down her clothing company-Fashion brand hit by boycotts and slowing sales, but president's daughter says she is closing company to focus on her work as a White House adviser-By Bernard Condon-TOI-JUL 26,18
NEW YORK, United States (AP) — Ivanka Trump is shutting down her fashion line of dresses, shoes and handbags that became a target of political boycotts and spurred concerns about conflicts of interest after her father was elected.The president’s daughter said in a statement she made the decision so she could focus more on work as a White House adviser. She had stepped away from the day-to-day management of her company when she joined President Donald Trump’s administration.“After 17 months in Washington, I do not know when or if I will ever return to the business, but I do know that my focus for the foreseeable future will be the work I am doing here in Washington,” she said. She called the move the “only fair outcome for my team and partners.”The Ivanka Trump brand has been buffeted by politics since she joined the White House early last year. Sales appeared to surge at times due her celebrity as the US president’s daughter — White House adviser Kellyanne Conway once urged on Fox News for people to “go buy Ivanka’s stuff” — only to get battered as those who disliked her father’s policies urged shoppers to boycott the line.Nordstrom dropped the Ivanka Trump line last year, citing slowing sales, and recently Hudson Bay reportedly did the same.The company said that its business was strong, and the decision to shut down had nothing do with its performance. Shutting down the brand means 18 people will lose their jobs.Analyst Neil Saunders, managing director of GlobalData Retail, said that “while the company is still viable, doing business has become far more challenging and these problems will only increase.”Ivanka Trump recently has been encouraging US companies to pledge to hire American workers. Her own company has been criticized for making its products in Chinese factories, for the conditions in those factories, and for being granted trademarks by foreign governments such as China that would want to curry favor with the president.Her announcement comes amid a worsening trade fight between the United States and China. President Trump is seeking to drive China to the negotiating table and rectify what he sees as years of unfair trade practices.The White House has imposed tariffs on $34 billion of Chinese imports and has itemized a list of $200 billion more in goods that may face tariffs by September. Neither of those tariffs would cover the clothing and handbags Ivanka Trump sells. But if the president were to make good on his threat to tax all $500 billion in Chinese imports, that would raise the price of everything her company imports from that country.Since it is a private company, it is difficult to judge just how well Ivanka Trump’s business has been faring. The bulk of her assets —more than $50 million worth — is contained in a trust that holds her business and corporations. The trust generated over $5 million in revenue last year, according to a financial disclosure report filed with the government.When Ivanka Trump joined the White House as adviser to her father, she agreed to several restrictions so that her financial interest in the business would not conflict with her public role as a White House adviser.Still, the company drew criticism for benefiting from her White House ties.In April last year, the Chinese government granted her company provisional approval for three new trademarks, the same day she and her husband Jared Kushner dined with the president of China and his wife at President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort. The approvals have continued. In three months through May this year, China granted final approval for 13 of her trademarks and provisional approval for another eight.Ivanka Trump’s company has said the 2017 Chinese trademarks were filed defensively to protect against squatters using her name. China has said its trademarks policy regarding Ivanka Trump’s company is in line with normal legal practice.The Ivanka Trump brand has also come under criticism for conditions at factories where its products were made. The Associated Press spoke with workers last year at an Ivanka Trump shoe factory in Ganzhou, China, who described long hours, low pay and abuse.The company said at the time that the “integrity” of its supply chain was a “top priority” and that it takes such allegations “very seriously.”
Lebanese man indicted for contacting Israeli army personnel — report-Local media says defendant accused of contacting IDF's Arabic spokesman, another soldier and offering information, though his overtures were ignored-By TOI staff-JUL 26,18
A Lebanese man was indicted Tuesday for allegedly attempting to contact the Israeli military for the purpose of working with Israel and providing it with beneficial information, the National News Agency, a state-run Lebanese outlet reported.The indictment authored by Riyad Abu Ghaidah, Lebanon’s chief military investigative judge, said Mustafa D. messaged “the Israeli enemy’s army spokesman Avichai Adraee” by way of Facebook, the NNA report stated. It did not mention the defendant’s full name. The indictment also said Mustafa told Adraee that he likes his ideas and expressed to the spokesman that he wants peace with Israel, the report stated.The indictment noted that Adraee did not respond to Mustafa’s message.Adraee is the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman. He has a Facebook page which garners comments from Arabs around the Middle East on a daily basis.Adraee declined to comment on the matter.The indictment also noted that Mustafa wrote to another Israeli soldier by way of Facebook Messenger about his desire to make Israeli friends and communicate with them about “logistical matters,” and told the soldier he had information that could help Israel. The soldier was also uncooperative.According to the charges Mustafa told interrogators he had contacted Israeli military personnel due to his difficult financial state and his failure to find a job.Prosecutors are seeking a punishment of hard labor for Mustafa. It was not clear when his trial will begin.
Despite US cuts, Haley accuses world of failing to fund Palestinians-At Security Council, US envoy rebukes Iran and others for giving speeches but no cash to UNRWA; vows US won't continue 'feeding hands that bite'-By Raphael Ahren-TOI-26 July 2018
US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley on Tuesday rebuked the international community for pontificating about the Palestinians’ suffering but failing to substantially support them financially, defending the US’s own cuts to Ramallah and Gaza.At a session dedicated to the Middle East, Haley castigated the Muslim world and stressed that no other nation was giving nearly as much money to Palestinian causes as the US, even after the US drastically cut its support for the UN’s refugee agency for Palestinians and also slashed aid over stipends paid to terror convicts and their families.“Country after country claims solidarity with the Palestinian people. If those words were useful in the schools, the hospitals, and the streets of their communities, the Palestinian people would not be facing the desperate conditions we are discussing here today,” Haley said. “Talk is cheap.”Iran, Algeria, and Tunisia, for instance, last year contributed zero dollars to UNRWA, Haley said. Egypt gave $20,000, Turkey $6.7 million, and the United Arab Emirates $12.8 million.“If you judge a nation’s commitment to the Palestinian people by the words heard in this chamber, you might come to the conclusion that the United States has been less generous, simply because we stand proudly with our ally Israel here at the UN,” Haley said.“But once again, this conclusion would be entirely false.”Just last year, the US donated $364 million to Palestinian causes, she said.“And that’s on top of what the American people give annually to the Palestinians in bilateral assistance. That is another 300 million dollars just last year, and it averages to more than a quarter of a billion dollars every year since 1993,” she claimed.Moments before Haley spoke, the UN’s special coordinator for the Middle East peace process, Nickolay Mladenov, said the Trump administration’s freezing of millions of dollars of funding earmarked for UNRWA had thrust the organization in dire straits.UNRWA’s financial crisis “remains a very serious concern,” he told the council, speaking via satellite from his Jerusalem office.“At present, UNRWA needs $217 million to sustain its work for this year. I urge the swift mobilization of support to enable the continuity of assistance and a maintenance of stability on the ground in the region,” he said.Given the current shortfall, UNRWA might have to delay the start of the school year for some 526,000 students in schools run by the agency throughout its areas of operation, Mladenov warned.In an opinion piece published in the Washington Post last week, US officials Jared Kushner, Jason Greenblatt, and David Friedman said donors were unwilling to donate money to help Gaza’s humanitarian situation as long as Hamas remained in power.The trio said the US would offer money to the beleaguered enclave in exchange for Hamas stopping terror activity and returning the captive Israelis and the remains of soldiers.Russia’s deputy ambassador to the UN, Dmitry Polyanskiy, warned that the UNRWA shortfall “could lead to serious consequences.”#Polyanskiy: The only possible way towards a settlement in the #MiddleEast is a direct dialogue between the parties, we are ready to facilitate it.Our initiative to hold a Palestinian-Israeli summit in Russia remains on table, it has already been supported by the Palestinian side pic.twitter.com/1Z3KVnF1xB— Russian Mission UN (@RussiaUN) July 24, 2018-The Russian envoy also reiterated his government’s willingness to facilitate a meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and PA President Mahmoud Abbas in Moscow.“The only possible way towards a settlement in the Middle East is a direct dialogue between the parties, we are ready to facilitate it,” he said. “Our initiative to hold a Palestinian-Israeli summit in Russia remains on table, it has already been supported by the Palestinian side.”-‘Imagine half of Manhattan going up in flames’ Haley also said that while the US supported Palestinians causes, the administration would not “feed the hand that bites” them, referring to bitter criticism by the Palestinian Authority on the White House’s policies toward the region.“We are not fools,” she said.Israel’s ambassador to the UN Danny Danon accused Hamas of burning over 7,400 acres of land with incendiary balloons and kites launched into Israel.“Just imagine if half of Manhattan would go up in flames as a result of terrorism,” he said.“Too many people in this building have forgotten what Hamas truly is: a murderous terrorist organization that terrorizes Israel and holds Gazans hostage,” Danon said.“And as Hamas is a growing international problem, the time has come for the Security Council to recognize that Hamas is no different from al-Qaeda or ISIS. The Security Council must recognize Hamas as a terrorist organization.”
Japan hosts multinational drills to intercept weapons at sea-[Associated Press]-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
ABOARD THE MURASAME (AP) — Japan is hosting a multinational security exercise off Tokyo's southern coast aimed at intercepting shipments of missiles and other weapons of mass destruction at sea.Japanese navy sailors and their counterparts from the U.S. and Australia and the South Korean coast guard joined Wednesday's exercise.Participants took turns stopping and raiding a target boat found at sea. Journalists observed from the Japanese destroyer Murasame.Thirty countries, including six core members of the Proliferation Security Initiative participated, along with 20 observers and four non-members.The initiative started in 2003 as part of Washington's effort to block shipments of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons, as well as missiles to carry them.The initiative does not target any specific country, but North Korea has criticized it in the past.
Police ID girl killed in Danforth rampage as Julianna Kozis-[CBC]-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
Police have released the name of the 10-year-old girl killed in the mass shooting in Toronto's Danforth neighbourhood on Sunday.Julianna Kozis of Markham was killed in the shooting that also claimed the life of 18-year-old Reese Fallon and injured 13 others."Her family has requested privacy during their time of grief," the Toronto Police Service said in a statement. Police have refused to confirm where along the Danforth Avenue strip Kozis was shot. However, a witness who spoke with CBC News on Monday said he tended to a seriously wounded young girl of about the same age. Md Ashaduzzaman was working in the back kitchen at Caffe Demetre when the shooting started. A woman in the café was soon screaming for help, saying her daughter had been shot.The café, at 400 Danforth Ave., has been identified as the third shooting site along the gunman's deadly rampage.The girl, about 10 years old by his estimate, was lying on the ground, bleeding from her leg as her mother tried to stop the bleeding with a cloth. "I was trying to hold her and I was trying to wake her up. She was falling asleep, her eyes were closing and opening, closing and opening," Ashaduzzaman said.The 29-year-old gunman, identified Monday as Faisal Hussain, also died.Toronto city Coun. Jim Karygiannis told The Canadian Press via email that he knows the girl's family and that her death is a "devastation" to the community."She had her whole life ahead of her, only to be taken in a senseless act of terror," Karygiannis said Tuesday night.Markham Mayor Frank Scarpitti said Sunday's "senseless act of violence has shaken us and hurt us."We stand with the victims, the brave first responders and all the communities impacted by this tragedy," he said in a statement.Markham plans to lower its flags in Kozis's memory and place a book of condolences at the local civic centre."We hope by coming together, we can offer some solace in a time of great sadness."

Nineteen dead, more than 3,000 in need of rescue, after Laos dam collapse - media-[Reuters]-By Amy Sawitta Lefevre-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
BANGKOK (Reuters) - Nineteen people have been confirmed dead and more than 3,000 need to be rescued after a dam collapsed in a remote part of land-locked Laos, local media reported on Wednesday.The Vientiane Times, citing district governor Bounhom Phommasane, said about 19 people have been "found dead", more than 3,000 "require rescue" and about 2,851 have been saved.Earlier, a senior Lao government official, who declined to be identified because he was not authorized to speak to the media, said dozens of people were feared dead after the hydropower dam that was under construction collapsed on Monday."We will continue with rescue efforts today but it's very difficult, the conditions are very difficult. Dozens of people are dead. It could be higher," the Vientiane-based official told Reuters by telephone.A United Nations report on the disaster put the death toll at five with 34 missing, 1,494 evacuated and 11,777 people in 357 villages affected. It said 20 houses were destroyed and more than 223 houses and 14 bridges damaged by the flooding.Hundreds were reported missing after walls of water washed away villages and rescuers on Wednesday continued to search floodwaters for survivors, a government official said.State media showed pictures of villagers, some with young children, stranded on the roofs of submerged houses. Others showed villagers trying to board wooden boats to safety in Attapeu province, the southernmost part of the country.At least seven villages have been submerged. State media pictures showed one-storey homes flooded with muddy water.The remoteness of the affected area could hamper relief operations, say experts.Laos, one of the world's few remaining communist states and one of Asia's poorest countries, has an ambitious dam-building scheme in order to become the "battery of Asia".Its government depends almost entirely on outside developers to build its planned portfolio of dams under commercial concessions that agree to export electricity to its more developed neighbors, including power-hungry Thailand.Environment rights groups have repeatedly warned about the human and environmental cost of the rapid pace of dam construction, including damage to the already-fragile ecosystem of the region's rivers.Last year, the 15-megawatt Nam Ao hydropower dam collapsed in Laos' northern Xieng Khuong province, the Vientiane Times reported, resulting in flash floods that "damaged property and risked lives."-SUPPLY DAM WASHED AWAY-Attapeu is a largely agricultural province that borders Vietnam to the east and Cambodia to the south.The $1.2 billion dam that collapsed is part of the hydroelectric Xe-Pian Xe-Namnoy power project, which involves Laotian, Thai and South Korean firms. The subsidiary dam, known as "Saddle Dam D", was part of a network of two main dams and five subsidiary dams.South Korea's SK Engineering & Construction said part of a small supply dam was washed away and the company was cooperating with the Laos government to help rescue villagers near the site.The firm blamed the collapse on heavy rain. Laos, and its neighboring countries, are in the middle of the monsoon season when tropical storms and heavy rain can lead to flash floods.An official at the firm said fractures were first discovered on the dam on Sunday and that the company had ordered the evacuation of 12 villages as soon as it became clear the dam could collapse.Shares in major stakeholders of SK Engineering & Construction fell on Wednesday after news of the collapse.SK E&C's biggest shareholder, SK Holdings Co Ltd <034730 .ks="">, was down 6.2 percent, marking its biggest daily percentage loss since Feb. 11, 2016. The second biggest shareholder, SK Discovery Co Ltd <006120 .ks="">, slid as much as 10 percent.REMOTE LOCATION-Ian Baird, associate professor of geography at University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Laos expert, said the collapse of the subsidiary dam was unlikely to affect others in the project, but added that the dam can't be fixed until the dry season."I don't think its going to affect the other dams," Baird told Reuters in a telephone interview."The water's all out of the reservoir now and the water levels are already going down but I don't think they'll be able to fix it until the dry season," he said.South Korea, Singapore and neighboring Thailand have offered to help in the rescue effort. But the remoteness of the affected area and damage to roads and bridges will make it very difficult to reach those still stranded, Baird said."The roads are very poor in that area. People don't usually go in that area during the rainy season. There are mountains nearby that villagers might be able to get up on .... I don't think anybody really knows for sure," he said.International Rivers, which works to stop destructive hydropower projects in Laos, said in an April report that hydropower dams on the Mekong River's lower mainstream pose a serious threat to the region.Predicted impacts include a 30 percent to 40 percent decrease in fisheries by 2040 as well as a drastic reduction in food security and agricultural productivity, alongside increased poverty levels in much of the Lower Mekong Basin.Laos has completed construction of 11 dams, according to Thai non-governmental organization TERRA, with a further 11 under construction and dozens more planned.(Additional reporting by Fanny Potkin in JAKARTA and Heekyong Yang in SEOUL; Editing by Paul Tait and Michael Perry)

Bulgaria warns southern neighbors Greece, Turkey of floods-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
SOFIA (Reuters) - Bulgaria has warned its southern neighbors Greece and Turkey they could face floods as heavy rains are expected to swell the Arda and Maritsa rivers flowing into their territories.The alert came as Greek emergency services were struggling to deal with their worst wildfires in years.The Ivaylovgrad dam on the Arda in the eastern Rhodope Mountains would probably overflow in the next few days because of expected downpours, Bulgaria's foreign ministry said late on Tuesday.The Arda flows eastward into Greece and joins the Maritsa river on Greece's border with Turkey.Sofia said it was expecting massive increases in water volumes in the flood-prone Maritsa near the Bulgarian town of Svilengrad on the Turkish border on Wednesday and Thursday.Bulgarian authorities have declared states of emergency in several municipalities following heavy rainfall. A man died after being swept away by floodwaters in the Bulgarian town of Teteven on Tuesday.(Reporting by Angel Krasimirov)
Yosemite park sections to close due to smoke from California wildfire-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
(Reuters) - The Yosemite Valley and other parts of Yosemite National Park will close from Wednesday due to smoke from a raging California wildfire that is choking the air in the popular tourist destination, officials said on Tuesday.The so-called Ferguson Fire, which has been burning since July 13 and has claimed the life of one firefighter, had charred about 36,600 acres (14,800 hectares) to the south and west of the park and was 25 percent contained as of Tuesday afternoon, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.The park's Yosemite Valley, Wawona and Mariposa Grove are to be closed through at least Sunday due to the fire operations, the National Park Service said.Air quality in the area about 170 miles (275 kms) east of San Francisco was expected to be unhealthy to very unhealthy on Tuesday and Wednesday, according to the U.S. Forest Service Wildland Fire Air Quality Response Program."The Ferguson Fire is burning in steep, rugged terrain with little to no access roads," said Scott McLean, a spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.More than 3,300 personnel using 16 helicopters and bulldozers have been battling the blaze, which has led to evacuations in parts of the region.The fire is one of more than 65 major wildfires burning in the United States this week that have so far scorched an area of about 1.2 million acres (485,620 hectares). Most are in western states, with blazes also in central Texas and Wisconsin, according to the National Interagency Coordination Center.As of July 24, wildfires had burned through 3.94 million acres (1,594,460 hectares) this year, above the 10-year average for the same calendar period of 3.54 million acres (1,432,590 hectares), it said.(Reporting by Jon Herskovitz; Editing by Dan Grebler)
Greece scene of worst wildfires in Europe this century-[AFP]-YAHOONEWS-July 25, 2018
Paris (AFP) - Greece, where wildfires raging near Athens, have claimed at least 74 lives, has previously been the scene of the deadliest fires in Europe this century.Here is a recap of the worst fires, which have also hit Portugal and Russia.- Portugal in 2017, 2003 -Sixty-four people were killed and 250 injured in the deadliest wildfires in Portugal's history in June 2017.The fires burned for five days in the central Leiria region, breaking out at the height of a summer heatwave. Many of the victims died trapped in their cars by the flames while trying to escape.Violent winds fanned the fires, ravaging some 460 square kilometres (around 180 square miles) of hillsides covered with pine and eucalyptus.In 2003 gigantic fires caused by a heatwave left 20 dead between July and September in central and southern Portugal.The summer of 2003 remains the most disastrous in terms of surface destroyed, with nearly 4,250 square kilometres going up in smoke.- Russia in 2015, 2010 -In April 2015 huge fires that started in the Khakassia region of southeastern Siberia killed 34 people as well as hundreds of cattle and thousands of sheep.The blaze, which spread as far as Mongolia and practically up to the Chinese border, also destroyed 2,000 homes and 10,000 square kilometres of land.Five years earlier, vast swathes of western Russia were ravaged by fires for weeks during an unprecedented heatwave and drought.The blazes between July and August 2010 tore through 10,000 square kilometres of forest, bogs and brushwood, burning entire villages.Some of the fires came dangerously close to Russia's top nuclear research centre in Sarov.- Greece in 2007 -Forest fires killed 77 people at the end of August 2007 in Greece, ravaging 2,500 square kilometres in the southern Peloponnese and the island of Evia, northeast of Athens.The fires raged for around 12 days, but most of the victims were killed early on in the disaster when they became trapped in villages cut off by the flames, some ignoring orders to evacuate.- France, worst ever in 1949 -The heaviest loss of life in wildfires in Europe was in France when 82 people were killed battling flames in the southwest Landes region in August 1949.The victims -- firemen, volunteers and soldiers -- were caught in a ball of fire after the winds suddenly changed direction.
B.C. expands campfire bans amid wildfires and heat warnings-[The Canadian Press]-July 25, 2018
VANCOUVER — More campfire bans are being imposed as the fire danger rating rises along with temperatures in British Columbia.Starting Thursday, campfires will be prohibited in the Kamloops Fire Centre, where the majority of B.C.'s wildfires are currently burning.The Ministry of Forests has also limited burning on Haida Gwaii to small fires no more than half a metre high, as the archipelago experiences uncommonly dry conditions.The latest bans come as Environment Canada heat warnings cover several areas of the province, including eastern Vancouver Island, several Interior districts and the northeast corner of B.C. In the Okanagan Valley, where several lightning-caused fires have been burning for a week, the emergency support centre in West Kelowna has closed down as evacuation orders were lifted.The Central Okanagan Regional District says there are still almost 700 properties on evacuation alert, meaning residents should be ready to leave at a moment's notice.The Canadian Press.

Israel tried to contact Syrian pilot before shooting down jet, envoy to UN says-Army now reportedly believes plane crossed into Israel accidentally, but Danny Danon says military had to act quickly without knowing its intention-By TOI staff and AP-24 July 2018
Israel’s ambassador to the UN Danny Danon said Tuesday that Israel tried to contact the pilot of a Syrian jet before shooting down his plane after it entered Israeli airspace.Addressing the Security Council’s monthly meeting on the Middle East, Danon said the IDF observed the plane “crossing the border…. We tried to contact a few times, and there was no response.”Israel said it shot down the Sukhoi-model jet with a pair of Patriot missiles after it breached some two kilometers inside Israel territory in the Golan Heights.There was no time to “wait to see what are the real intentions of the pilot,” Danon said, adding that “that’s what any other country will do in a similar situation.”The Israel Defense Forces now believes the pilot likely strayed into Israeli territory by mistake while carrying out bombing runs against rebel-held areas near the border, according to Israeli media reports.The IDF is on “elevated alert” along the northern border because of the fighting on the Syrian side of the fence, said military spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus.Danon said Israel seeks “no escalation in the region.” According to Israeli reports, the IDF does not intend to shoot down every jet that enters Israeli airspace, but will act to intercept rockets or drones.“The only thing we can do is to protect our civilians,” Danon said.“Israel will not tolerate any violation of our sovereignty — not from Syria, not from Gaza, not from any other enemy that threatens our security,” he said.The plane reportedly crashed inside Syria, killing its pilot. The fate of a second crewman is unknown, Syrian reports said. Israeli reports indicated there was only one pilot in the plane, however.Syria’s military said its jet was targeted by Israel over Syrian territory as it flew sorties against Islamic State militants near the border. Regime forces have been battling rebels and IS fighters near the Israeli border for weeks in a campaign to restore President Bashar Assad’s rule over southwestern Syria.Israel has stressed it would enforce the ceasefire lines between the two countries.“This is a blatant violation of the 1974 separation agreements between Israel and Syria,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement. “We will not accept any intrusion or spillage into our territory, either from the ground or from the air.”Israel has warned Syria through various channels not to violate the 1974 agreement, Conricus said.Syrian rebels surrendered their last pockets in the southwestern Quneitra and Daraa provinces last week, leading thousands of opposition fighters, their families and other civilians to evacuate to the rebel-held province of Idlib in northern Syria.On Tuesday, government forces reached the border fence where a UN peacekeeping force is deployed at the edge of the Golan Heights for the first time since 2011, when an uprising swept through Syria against Assad.Minutes before the reported downing of the jet, Syria’s state-run Al-Ikhbariya TV was broadcasting footage from the fence demarcating the UN buffer zone between Syrian and Israeli forces in the Golan Heights. A UN observer post could be seen just on the other side of the fence.The camera showed an Israeli post 400 meters (440 yards) away.
Fighting may last months in last IS holdout in Syria, warns French general-French coalition official says US-backed troops unsure how many jihadists remain in Deir Ezzor, but 'we want to make sure we kill all of them'-By AFP-TOI-JUL 26,18
WASHINGTON — The Islamic State group in Syria now controls only a small pocket of terrain, a French military official said Tuesday, though he cautioned fighting there could take several more months.Brigadier General Frederic Parisot, who heads civil-military operations for the US-led coalition fighting IS in Syria and Iraq, told Pentagon reporters the jihadists now hold an area of about 30 by 10 kilometers (18 by six miles).This terrain is located in eastern Deir Ezzor province, and includes the town of Hajin, about 50 kilometers (30 miles) from Iraq’s border.Parisot said the fight against IS would last “for at least two or three months” and noted that a few hundred jihadists remain.“We don’t know how many. But we want to make sure that we kill all of them,” he said.Pentagon officials added that since April 24, the coalition has killed six IS leaders and planners in strikes.IS declared a cross-border “caliphate” in Syria and Iraq in 2014, seizing a third of Iraq and vast chunks of northern Syria during a sweeping offensive.The jihadists have since lost almost all the ground to separate counter-offensives by Syrian and Iraqi forces as well as US-led operations.In December the Iraqi government declared victory over IS but the military has continued regular operations targeting mostly desert areas along the porous Syrian border.
Islamic State said to capture body of downed Syrian pilot-Plane shot down by Israel after crossing border said to have crashed in small pocket of land held by terror group in southwest Syria-By Agencies-TOI-JUL 26,18
An official based in Syria and allied with government forces said Tuesday that Islamic State fighters seized the body of a Syrian pilot whose jet was shot down by Israel.The pilot was identified as Col. Amran Mara’e. He was killed when his plane was shot down, a Syrian military source told Sputnik, a Russian government-backed news outlet.The fate of the other pilot remains unknown, said the official, who is with the so-called “Axis of Resistance” that is led by Iran and includes Iran, Syria, Hezbollah, and other groups fighting alongside Assad’s forces. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to reporters.According to Israeli reports, however, there was only one pilot in the plane.A non-Syrian source told Reuters the plane crashed in a pocket of land in Syria’s southwest still held by Islamic State rebels.The Israeli military said it monitored the advance of the Syrian Sukhoi fighter jet and shot it down with a pair of Patriot missiles after it penetrated Israeli airspace by about 2 kilometers (1.2 miles).Syria’s military, however, claimed the jet was targeted by Israel over Syrian territory as it flew sorties against Islamic State militants.Syrian forces have been battling rebels and IS fighters at the frontier with Israel for weeks, in a campaign to restore President Bashar Assad’s rule over southwestern Syria.On Tuesday, government forces reached the border fence where a UN peacekeeping force is deployed at the edge of the Golan Heights. It was the first time the Syrian government had managed to retake the area since 2011, when an uprising swept through Syria against Assad.Israel captured the Golan Heights from Syria in 1967. The UN deployed peacekeepers between the two sides in 1974 as part of a treaty following 1973’s Yom Kippur War.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the breach of Israeli territory a “blatant violation” of the 1974 agreement that established the demilitarized zone between Israel and Syria.“I have reiterated and made clear that we will not accept any such violation. We will not accept any such penetration of or spillover into our territory, neither on the ground nor from the air,” he said in a statement.Israel’s military has been on “elevated alert” along the frontier because of activity on the Syrian side of the fence, said military spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus. Israel has warned Syria through various channels not to violate the 1974 agreement, he added.Minutes before the downing of the jet, Syria’s state-run Al-Ikhbariya TV was broadcasting footage from the fence demarcating the UN buffer zone between Syrian and Israeli forces in the Golan Heights. A UN observer post could be seen just on the other side of the fence.The camera showed an Israeli post 400 meters (440 yards) away.Israel’s military said the Syrian jet took off from the T-4 air base, near Homs, where Iranian militias are believed to have a presence.The plane flew toward Israel at “relatively high speed” before breaching the country’s airspace, said Conricus. He said it was unknown if the plane deliberately crossed into Israel.The plane crashed in the southern part of the Syrian Golan Heights, he said.Judah Ari Gross contributed to this report.

Lapid doesn’t rule out evacuating Jordan Valley settlements for peace-During tour, Yesh Atid chairman voices support for ongoing military presence along Jordan river, but stops short of promising to keep residential communities-By Jacob Magid-TOI-JUL 26,18
JORDAN VALLEY — Yesh Atid party chairman Yair Lapid has left open the possibility of evacuating settlements in the West Bank portion of the Jordan Valley in a future peace deal.Lapid, who polls currently indicate has the best chance of defeating Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the next election, told residents several times throughout his Monday tour of the regional council that “the Jordan Valley would remain the security border of the state of Israel in any future agreement.”However, when asked whether he was endorsing retaining a civilian presence along the Jordan Valley in addition to a military one, the opposition lawmaker offered a more nuanced response.“Not for nothing did I say it will remain the ‘security’ border. Everyone can decipher on his own what that means,” he said.Pushed to elaborate, Lapid said he was not interested in showing his cards.“The great mistake of the Israeli left over generations has been its willingness to always starts negotiations by announcing what it will give up and what it will not give up,” the Yesh Atid chairman explained, still leaving open the possibility of evacuating Jewish West Bank communities between the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea.The response differed from ones he gave regarding Jerusalem, which he asserted would forever function as Israel’s “united” capital, and on the Golan Heights, which he maintained would remain part of Israel under any deal.Still the Yesh Atid chairman offered his full support for the 21 Israeli communities in the regional council, praising the residents for their agricultural successes in the Jordan Valley’s less than ideal climate conditions.During a sit-down with several dozen residents of the Tomer settlement, locals highlighted their amicable relations with many of their Palestinian neighbors that they employ. They told Lapid that an “economic peace” was more realistic than other solutions proposed by the government.While the opposition lawmaker acknowledged the importance of grassroots initiatives that improve relations between Israelis and Palestinians on the ground, he said a plan by leaders was also necessary and that the one he endorses sees “Israel eventually separating from the Palestinians.”
