Three Palestinian attackers killed in new West Bank violence-AFP By Imad Saada-FEB 14,16-YAHOONEWS

Nablus (Palestinian Territories) (AFP) - Two 15-year-old Palestinians fired on Israeli soldiers before being killed in the occupied West Bank Sunday, and another two were shot -- one fatally -- in attempted stabbings, Israeli authorities said.The incidents were the latest in a wave of Palestinian knife, gun and car-ramming assaults that erupted in October.They came as US Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power visited Israel and the Palestinian territories for talks with leaders from both sides.In the first incident, the two teenagers attacked an Israeli patrol west of the city of Jenin with rocks before firing on soldiers with a rifle, an army statement said."The force responded to the shooting and fired towards the attackers, resulting in their deaths," it said.The Palestinian health ministry named those killed as Nihad Waked and Fuad Waked, both 15 years old. They were not thought to be closely related.Later in the day, a Palestinian tried to stab Israeli border police between Jerusalem and Bethlehem in the West Bank before being shot dead, Israeli authorities said.The Palestinian health ministry identified the assailant as Naim Safi, 17, who was from a village near Bethlehem.Also on Sunday, a young Palestinian woman tried to stab an Israeli policeman but was shot in the attempt in the flashpoint West Bank city of Hebron, Israeli police said.She was taken to hospital in critical condition.Police said the attacker drew a knife on a border police officer at a checkpoint and the officer, who was unharmed, shot her. She was identified as Yasmin al-Zaru, 20.The incident took place close to the shared religious site known to Jews as the Cave of the Patriarchs and to Muslims as the Ibrahimi Mosque.Tensions are high at the site -- a 17-year-old Palestinian was shot dead in a stabbing attempt there on Saturday.Since the current round of bloodshed erupted at the beginning of October, 170 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces.Most were carrying out attacks but others died during clashes and demonstrations.The violence has claimed the lives of 26 Israelis, as well as an American, a Sudanese and an Eritrean, according to an AFP count.Many of the assailants have been teenagers who appear to have acted on their own.Some analysts say Palestinian frustration with Israeli occupation and settlement building in the West Bank, the complete lack of progress in peace efforts and their own fractured leadership have fed the unrest.Israel blames incitement by Palestinian leaders and media as a main cause of the violence.Questions have been raised over whether Israeli forces have used excessive force in certain cases, allegations which they firmly reject.International efforts to halt the violence have so far failed.US ambassador Power said she intended to discuss her country's "commitment to two states side-by-side in security and peace" during her visit.

Time for Arab states to publicize their Israel ties, Netanyahu says-Most moderate countries in region see Israel as ally, not enemy, PM tells visiting US Jewish leaders, urging more openness about covert contacts-By Times of Israel staff and Raphael Ahren February 14, 2016, 10:52 pm

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday said it was time for some Arab states with which Israel has covert ties to publicly acknowledge those relationships.Addressing the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, the prime minister maintained that most moderate Arab countries see Israel as their ally, not their enemy, as they share a common struggle against Iran and the Islamic State.“Major Arab countries are changing their view of Israel … they don’t see Israel anymore as their enemy, but they see Israel as their ally, especially in the battle against militant Islam with its two fountainheads,” he said in English. “Now, this is something that is forging new ties, many of them discreet, some of them open. And I think there too we can expect and should expect and should ask to see a change.”The prime minister did not elaborate on that issue.Netanyahu, who was addressing more than 100 leaders from the Conference’s 53 member organizations, thanked the delegates for “taking the message of Israel far and wide” — a reference to recent visits to Turkey and Egypt by Conference members. He emphasized his commitment to the unity of the Jewish people saying, “All Jews must feel at home and welcome in Israel.”Netanyahu identified two parallel contradictory trends worldwide. On the one hand, there was an ongoing multinational hostility toward Israel at the UN, ICC, and EU, together with what he termed an “obsession” with Israel in international forums. “We’ve had some efforts to change at least the EU,” he said. “But we know that in many of these multinational forums, Israel is singled out. I hope that one day we’ll receive a double standard because right now, we’re not enjoying a double standard; we are suffering a triple standard… There’s one standard for the dictatorships. They’re usually exempt. The other is for the democracies and there’s still a third standard for the democracy called Israel.On the other hand, he said, countries like China, India, Russia and Japan were warming their ties to Israel because of their concern with militant Islam and the terrorism it produces and to benefit from Israeli operational experience and intelligence in fighting terror as well as Israeli technologies, such as cyber security, improved water management and desalination, agriculture and biotechnology. “We need these countries who are coming to us to change their votes in international forums,” he said.“We shouldn’t be shy about it. We shouldn’t accept that there is this strange dichotomy and dissonance between the friendship and the alliances that are being built between Israel and the many countries, and the way they vote about Israel in international forums. I think that’s true of the EU; it’s true of the Organization for African Unity; it’s true in Latin America. And I think we should press this point home, because as interests shift, as Israel becomes such an important country internationally, it’s important that this will be reflected in international forums as well.”Netanyahu’s remarks came the same day as Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon said there were open channels between Israel and other Arab states, but the “sensitive” situation prevents him from shaking hands with Arab officials in public. He later publicly shook the hand of Saudi Prince Turki bin Faisal al-Saud.Turki is the rare Saudi official who has met openly with a number of Israeli officials in the past.Israel’s covert ties with Sunni Arab states are such that while they cannot display signs of cordiality in public, “we can meet in closed rooms,” said Ya’alon at the Munich Security Conference.“But we do have channels to speak with our Sunni Arab neighboring countries. Not just Jordan and Egypt — Gulf states, North African states,” Ya’alon said. “For them, Iran is an enemy.”Ya’alon, speaking in English, maintained that the Arab states are “frustrated and furious at the lack of Western support.”Saudi Arabia and other Arab states maintain they will only normalize ties with the Jewish state once a peace deal is reached with the Palestinians via a two-state solution.Israel has long said there are secret back-channel talks between Jerusalem and Sunni states, which share common concerns over Iranian hegemony in the region.Netanyahu told the conference Sunday that increased ties with the Arab states could help pave the way toward an agreement with the Palestinians, an oft-repeated claim.“I think that is very clear given the, what I regret to say is the disfunctionality that I often see in Palestinian politics, and I think that the encouragement of Arab states, leading Arab states, for a more realistic position on the part of the Palestinian Authority might contribute to a stabilizing situation and even advancing to a better future,” he said.He also highlighted the paramount importance of Israel’s ties to the US. “I want to say emphatically that we have no illusions that America remains the best friend of the State of Israel. The United States and Israel are the greatest allies. And I deeply appreciate the support of President Obama, the Congress, the American people. We’re working together today on an MoU (Memorandum of Understanding on security aid),” he noted. “I hope that we can complete it soon, and we certainly will welcome Vice President Biden, who will come to visit us. I think it’s another reflection of this deep friendship between our countries.“And I think the American people understand that in this turbulent Middle East and this turbulent world, America has no better friend than Israel and Israel has no better friend than the United States of America,” Netanyahu said.

2 Palestinians shoot at Jerusalem police, are killed in gunbattle-No reports of injuries among police or bystanders after late-night attack at Damascus Gate entrance to Old City-By Times of Israel staff February 14, 2016, 11:07 pm

Two Palestinians opened fire on police officers in Jerusalem late Sunday, and were killed in the ensuing gunbattle, police said.The gunmen, carrying automatic weapons, shot at a group of Border Police officers near the Old City’s Damascus Gate. The officers were receiving their nightly briefing before beginning patrols in the area.The officers fired back, hitting one assailant instantly and beginning a pursuit after the second, who was still shooting at the officers. The second attacker was soon hit by police fire.Both attackers were residents of the West Bank and were killed in the battle, police said. There were no injuries among officers or bystanders.No explosives were found on the gunmen’s bodies or in the area, police said, after roping off the area over fears they could have been carrying bombs. Palestinian media reported that one Palestinian man was arrested in the area shortly after the incident.The site was the scene of a fatal attack on February 3, in which Border Police officer Hadar Cohen, 19, was killed in a Palestinian shooting and stabbing attack. The attackers in that incident had carried pipe bombs to the site of the attack.Police units at the scene of attack near Damascus gate.

Security forces were investigating the incident and searching the area. A bullet penetrated the window of a residential home, according to initial reports. No injuries were reported.The gunfire may have come from the nearby Palestinian village of Jalazoun, authorities said.The gunfire followed three separate attempted stabbing attacks Sunday.Earlier in the evening, Border Police officers thwarted an attempted stabbing near the Tomb of the Patriarchs shrine in the West Bank city of Hebron, police said. The alleged assailant, a Palestinian girl initially identified as 14 years old, was shot and critically wounded.In the afternoon, a Palestinian man was shot and killed after trying to stab officers at a checkpoint south of Jerusalem.On Sunday morning, two Palestinian teens near Jenin in the northern West Bank were shot and killed after opening fire on security forces who were responding to reports of stone throwers in the area.

Bus driver in crash that kills 6 had collided with truck on same road in 2013-Driver was only recently allowed to return to intercity routes; regular passenger says his reckless driving meant disaster was matter of time-By Times of Israel staff and Judah Ari Gross February 15, 2016, 1:35 am

The bus driver involved in Sunday’s deadly collision on Highway 1 crashed on the same route in 2013, also smashing into a truck and overturning the vehicle on the main Jerusalem-Tel Aviv artery.Six died and a dozen were injured in Sunday evening’s collision between the crowded intercity bus 402 and a truck near the city of Ramle.Several passengers were injured in the bus driver’s previous incident, and as a result the Egged bus company banned him from intercity routes.The ban was only lifted a few weeks ago and he was permitted to drive the Jerusalem to Tel Aviv line once again, Channel 2 reported.The bus driver told police Sunday that he didn’t notice the truck stopped on the side of the highway, and investigators believe the bus driver’s inattention to traffic caused him to swerve out of his lane and collide with the truck parked on the side of the road.Photos of the collision showed the right side of the bus wrenched apart. Channel 2 reported that the truck’s crane ripped the bus open, injuring and killing passengers seated on the right side.The truck driver told police investigators he heard noises coming from his engine, so he had stopped on the right shoulder of the highway. “Just as I got out of the truck, the same minute, the bus came and slammed into the rear end.”The driver of the truck, an East Jerusalem native, suffered light injuries and was detained by police. The bus driver was later held for questioning as well.The bus was the 402 line from Jerusalem to Bnei Brak. It was filled to capacity with passengers, according to Channel 2.A regular passenger on the 402 line who was familiar with the driver said he was often reckless and claimed he frequently broke safety codes. The passenger cited excessive speed, a failure to maintain a safe distance from other vehicles, and a failure to stay focused on the road. The passenger told Channel 2 that an accident like Sunday’s was merely a matter of time.Yaakov Hashin, 27, Yisrael Weinberg, 26, Haya Frankel, 23, and Levi Yitzhak Amdadi, 17, were named as four of the fatalities.Hashin, a young ultra-Orthodox man, was on his way to a match-making date in Bnei Brak, Walla news reported. Weinberg was heading to a family wedding in the same city. Frankel and her husband just celebrated their second wedding anniversary; her husband was also aboard and was lightly injured in the accident. All three were residents of Jerusalem. Amdadi was from the town of Yavne’el, near the Sea of Galilee.The names of the other two victims were not immediately released for publication. They were reportedly children.Sara Shpringer, 20, of Jerusalem, remained in serious condition at Assaf Harofeh Medical Center in Rishon Lezion early Monday morning. She was undergoing surgery, but a doctor told Ynet that there was no immediate risk to her life.Shpringer’s sister was among the dozen people lightly injured in the collision, which occurred, near the Anava Interchange, east of Ramle.“It is a difficult scene, with a bus that likely crashed into a truck on the shoulder [of the highway],” said United Hatzalah paramedic Yehiel Miller. “Unfortunately, when I arrived on the scene, I came across a boy and two girls who were unconscious, with no pulse and who were not breathing. Also, several adults who were unconscious and a lot of passengers who were conscious and suffered injuries.”

Russia will 'fail to save' Syria's Assad: Saudi Foreign Minister-AFP-feb 14,16-yahoonews

Riyadh (AFP) - Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir said Sunday that Russia's efforts to support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad will not succeed in keeping him in power.Jubeir told a press conference in Riyadh that previous efforts to prop up Assad, including by Iran, had "failed"."Now, (Assad) has sought the help of Russia, which will fail to save him," he said, urging Moscow to "end its air operations against the moderate Syrian opposition."Russia, Assad's closest ally alongside Iran, began conducting airstrikes in September, targeting mainly rebels backed by the West, according to US officials.Analysts believe that Russia's military intervention in Syria has given Assad a new lease of life and has also deeply alarmed the West.But Jubeir, whose country is among the main Syrian opposition backers, said that "it is impossible for a man behind the killing of 300,000 innocent people... to remain" in power.Assad's departure "is a matter of time... sooner or later, this regime will fall, opening the way for building a new Syria without Bashar al-Assad," said Jubeir.He urged the Syrian regime to "immediately allow the entry of humanitarian assistance to all parts of Syria, end military attacks on innocent civilians... (and) begin a political transition in Syria."A 17-nation Syria Support Group, co-chaired by Russia and the United States, agreed on Friday to seek a "cessation of hostilities" within a week and dramatically ramp up humanitarian access to besieged towns.Critics have said the deal is hobbled by the fact it does not include "terrorist" groups such as the Islamic State group and the Al-Qaeda affiliate Al-Nusra, leaving room for Russia to continue attacks by claiming it is targeting jihadists.The agreement followed a major offensive by Syrian government forces, backed by heavy Russian bombing and Iranian troops, on the rebel stronghold of Aleppo.

Russia has gained upper hand in Syria, Merkel ally says-Reuters-FEB 14,16-YAHOONEWS

MUNICH (Reuters) - Russia had gained the upper hand in Syria and the surrounding region through armed force, a senior conservative ally of German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Sunday, and he voiced doubts that Moscow would respect a truce plan for the war-torn country."I think Russia has gained the upper hand in the region and this is by historical measures a novelty. And they have done so by the use of armed force," said Norbert Roettgen, head of the foreign affairs committee in the German parliament and a member of Merkel's conservative party.Speaking at a security conference in Munich, he said he was skeptical about how Russia would behave in the days and weeks ahead, despite agreeing to a "cessation of hostilities" which is due to begin in a week's time.The deal agreed by major powers falls short of a formal ceasefire because it was not signed by the warring parties, the Syrian government and the rebels seeking to topple President Bashar al-Assad.A day after the agreement was clinched, Syrian troops, backed by Russian air strikes, made gains against rebels near the northern Syrian city of Aleppo."Russia is determined to create the facts on the ground, and when they have accomplished this, then they will invite the West to fight a common enemy, this is ISIS," Roettgen said. In his view, he said, the approach had disqualified Moscow as a credible partner in fighting Islamic State militants.Participating in the same panel, U.S. Senator John McCain said he did not view the deal, sealed in Munich early Friday morning after nine hours of talks, as a breakthrough."Let's be clear about what this agreement does. It allows Russia's assault on Aleppo to continue for another week," he said."It is no accident that Mr. Putin has agreed on a cessation of hostilities. We have seen this movie before in Ukraine: Russia presses its advantage militarily, it creates new facts on the ground, it uses the denial and delivery of humanitarian aid as a bargaining chip, it negotiates an agreement to lock in the spoils of war," McCain said.(Reporting by Noah Barkin and Shadia Nasralla, editing by Larry King)

Obama urges Russia to stop bombing 'moderate' Syria rebels-Reuters By Tom Perry and Jeff Mason-FEB 14,16-YAHOONEWS

BEIRUT/RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. (Reuters) - U.S. President Barack Obama urged Russia on Sunday to stop bombing "moderate" rebels in Syria in support of its ally Bashar al-Assad, a campaign seen in the West as a major obstacle to latest efforts to end the war.Major powers agreed on Friday to a limited cessation of hostilities in Syria but the deal does not take effect until the end of this week and was not signed by any warring parties - the Damascus government and numerous rebel factions fighting it.Russian bombing raids directed at rebel groups are meanwhile helping the Syrian army to achieve what could be its biggest victory of the war in the battle for Aleppo, the country's largest city and commercial center before the conflict.There is little optimism that the deal reached in Munich will do much to end a war that has lasted five years and cost 250,000 lives.The Kremlin said President Vladimir Putin and Obama had spoken by telephone and agreed to intensify cooperation to implement the Munich agreement.But a Kremlin statement made clear Russia was committed to its campaign against Islamic State and "other terrorist organizations", an indication that it would also target groups in western Syria where jihadists such as al Qaeda are fighting Assad in close proximity to rebels deemed moderate by the West.Russia says the "cessation" does not apply to its air strikes, which have shifted the balance of power toward Assad.It says Islamic State and the al Qaeda-affiliated Nusra Front are the main targets of its air campaign. But Western countries say Russia has in fact been mostly targeting other insurgent groups, including some they support.The White House said Obama's discussion with Putin stressed the need to rush humanitarian aid to Syria and contain air strikes."In particular, President Obama emphasized the importance now of Russia playing a constructive role by ceasing its air campaign against moderate opposition forces in Syria," the White House said in a statement.AID THREATENED-Relief workers said efforts to deliver humanitarian aid were being threatened by the latest escalation of violence."We must ask again, why wait a week for this urgently needed cessation of hostilities?" said Dalia al-Awqati, Mercy Corps Director of Programs for North Syria.The situation in Syria has been complicated by the involvement of Kurdish-backed combatants in the area north of Aleppo near the Turkish border, which has drawn a swift military response from artillery in Turkey.The Kurdish YPG militia, helped by Russian air raids, seized an ex-military air base at Menagh last week, angering Turkey, which sees the YPG as an extension of the PKK, a Kurdish group that waged a bloody insurgent campaign on Turkish soil over most of the past three decades.Turkey began shelling while demanding that the YPG militia withdraw from areas it has captured from Syrian rebels in the northern Aleppo region in recent days, including the Menagh air base. The bombardment killed two YPG fighters, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.The Syrian Kurdish PYD party rejected Turkish demands for withdrawal, while the Syrian government said Turkish shelling of northern Syria amounted to direct support for insurgent groups.France called on Turkey to stop the shelling, but Turkey said it would continue to respond to Kurdish militia attacks in Syria.Syria also said Turkish forces were believed to be among 100 gunmen that entered Syria on Saturday with a dozen pick-up trucks mounted with heavy machine guns in an operation to supply rebel fighters.Other fronts were also active on Sunday.Kurdish-backed forces were fighting with insurgent groups near Tel Rifaat in the northern Aleppo countryside, while further south, government forces renewed their shelling of rebel positions to the northwest of Aleppo city.The Observatory also reported air strikes by jets believed to be Russian in areas east of Damascus, north of Homs, and in the southern province of Deraa.Reaction from politicians in the West to the Munich deal was skeptical.U.S. Senator John McCain said he did not view the deal as a breakthrough. "Let's be clear about what this agreement does. It allows Russia's assault on Aleppo to continue for another week," he said at security conference in Munich."Mr Putin is not interested in being our partner. He wants to shore up the Assad regime," McCain said.A senior ally of German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Russia had gained the upper hand in Syria through armed force.Norbert Roettgen, head of the foreign affairs committee in the German parliament, said Russia was determined to create "facts on the ground", to bolster its negotiating position."RECONCILIATION"-As the fighting continued, the Syrian army urged citizens in Deraa province, the Ghouta area east of Damascus, and in rural districts east of Aleppo to quickly seek "reconciliation" with the government.So-called local reconciliation agreements are often seen as a means for the government to force surrender on insurgents, and have typically followed lengthy blockades of rebel areas and the civilians living there.Saudi Arabia confirmed it had sent aircraft to Turkey's Incirlik air base to join the fight against Islamic State, but said any move to deploy Saudi special forces into Syria must await a decision by the U.S.-led coalition combating the militants.Any ground operations in Syria will lead to "a full-fledged, long war", Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev warned.(Additional reporting by Shadia Nasralla, Angus McDowall, Orhan Coskun, Katya Golubkova and Vladimir Soldatkin; Writing by Giles Elgood; Editing by Dominic Evans)

20 nations join major military manoeuvre in Saudi-AFP-feb 14,16-yahoonews

Riyadh (AFP) - Armed forces from around 20 countries were gathering in northern Saudi Arabia Sunday for "the most important" military manoeuvre ever staged in the region, the official news agency SPA reported.The "Thunder of the North" exercise involving ground, air, and naval forces sends a "clear message" that Riyadh and its allies "stand united in confronting all challenges and preserving peace and stability in the region", SPA said.Saudi Arabia is currently leading a military campaign against Iran-backed rebels in its southern neighbour Yemen. Last December, it also formed a new 35-member coalition to fight "terrorism" in Islamic countries.Sunday's announcement also comes as the kingdom, a member of the US-led coalition targeting the jihadist Islamic State group, said it has deployed warplanes to a Turkish air base in order to "intensify" its operations against IS in Syria.SPA did not specify when the military exercise will begin or how long it will last.However, the agency called it the "most important and largest in the region's history" in terms of the number of nations taking part and the weaponry being used.Twenty countries will be taking take part, SPA said.Among them are Saudi Arabia's five partners in the Gulf Cooperation Council, as well as Chad, Egypt, Jordan, Malaysia, Morocco, Pakistan, Senegal and Tunisia, it added.A Saudi source said on Thursday that members of the new "anti-terrorism" coalition will gather in Saudi Arabia next month for its first publicly announced meeting.Riyadh has said the alliance would share intelligence, combat violent ideology and deploy troops if necessary.

Saudi deploys jets in Turkey for anti-IS fight-AFP-feb 14,16-yahoonews

Dubai (AFP) - Saudi Arabia has deployed warplanes to a Turkish airbase in order to "intensify" its operations against the Islamic State group in Syria, a senior Saudi defence official has said."The Saudi kingdom now has a presence at Incirlik airbase in Turkey," brigadier general Ahmed al-Assiri was quoted as saying by Al-Arabiya television late on Saturday."Saudi warplanes are present with their crews to intensify aerial operations along with missions launched from bases in Saudi Arabia," Assiri said, without providing further details.Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said Saturday that Saudi jets would be deployed at Incirlik, and that the two countries could participate in ground operations against IS in Syria.Riyadh and Ankara are both opposed to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, whose foreign minister last week warned that any ground intervention would "amount to aggression that must be resisted".Assiri said the decision to deploy an unspecified number of jets to Turkey followed a meeting in Brussels of US-led anti-IS coalition members, who decided step up their fight against the jihadists in Syria and Iraq.He stressed that Saudi had made its decision in coordination with the coalition and said that a ground operation was being planned."There is a consensus among coalition forces on the need for ground operations and the kingdom is committed to that," Assiri said."Military experts will meet in the coming days to finalise the details, the task force and the role to be played by each country."Turkey on Saturday hit Kurdish and Syrian regime positions in northern Syria, further complicating efforts to end the war, which has killed more than 260,000 since it began in 2011.

Riyadh (AFP) - Saudi Arabia intercepted a Scud missile fired towards the kingdom by Iran-backed rebels in Yemen, the Riyadh-led coalition fighting the insurgents has said.The official Saudi SPA news agency said the missile was destroyed by the kingdom's air defences at around 2145 (1845 GMT) on Saturday, around 100 kilometres (60 miles) from its border with Yemen.Yemen's Shiite Huthi rebels meanwhile said in a statement on their sabanews.net website that the missile targeted the Abha Regional Airport in southern Saudi Arabia.The missile "precisely hit its target," it said.Saturday's incident is the third time Saudi Arabia says it has shot down a Scud fired from Yemen.On Tuesday, the coalition said that a Saudi Patriot missile had downed a Scud fired from the rebel-held Yemeni capital, Sanaa.Riyadh has deployed Patriots designed to counter tactical ballistic missiles, which have been fired occasionally since March when the coalition began air strikes in support of the Yemeni government after Huthi rebels seized Sanaa and advanced towards second city Aden.In April last year the Saudi defence ministry said coalition strikes had removed threats to the kingdom's security "by destroying heavy weaponry and ballistic missiles" seized by the Yemeni rebels.Vehicle-borne Scud ballistic missiles have a much longer range and more powerful warhead than the rockets and mortar bombs which have struck the kingdom's southern border regions, killing about 90 civilians and soldiers since the coalition intervention began.The United Nations says more than 6,100 people in Yemen have been killed in the conflict since March, about half of them civilians.

Syrian Kurdish party rejects Turkish demands, warns against intervention-Reuters-FEB 14,16-YAHOONEWS

BEIRUT (Reuters) - The Syrian Kurdish PYD party on Sunday rejected Turkish demands that allied militia withdraw from positions near the border that are being shelled by Turkish army, and warned that Syrians would resist any Turkish intervention in the country.Saleh Muslim, the co-chair of the PYD, told Reuters Turkey had no right to intervene in Syria's internal affairs, adding that an air base shelled by the Turkish army on Saturday had been in the hands of the al Qaeda-linked Nusra Front until forces allied to the PYD captured it last week."Do they want the Nusra Front to stay there, or for the regime to come and occupy it?" Muslim said by telephone.Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu on Saturday demanded the PYD withdraw from areas north of Aleppo he said had been captured by the Kurdish group. Asked if he rejected that demand, Muslim said: "Of course".Saleh said the air base was captured by the PYD-allied Syria Democratic Forces, which includes Arabs and Turkmen alongside the powerful Syrian Kurdish YPG militia.He added that if Turkey intervened in Syria they would find "the entire Syrian people confronting them".Turkey on Saturday demanded the YPG militia withdraw from areas that it had captured in the northern Aleppo region in recent days from insurgents in Syria, including the Menagh air base. The Turkish shelling has targeted those areas.Turkey has been alarmed by the expansion of Kurdish sway in northern Syria since the start of the conflict in 2011. The YPG controls nearly all of Syria's northern frontier with Turkey, and has been a close ally of the United States in the campaign against Islamic State in Syria.Ankara views the group as an extension of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), which has waged a three-decade-old insurgency for autonomy in southeast Turkey.(Reporting by Tom Perry, editing by Larry King)

North Korea took 70 percent of Kaesong wages for weapons program: South Korea-Reuters-FEB 14,16-YAHOONEWS

SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea said 70 percent of the U.S. dollars paid as wages and fees for the suspended Kaesong industrial project, run jointly with the North, had been diverted for Pyongyang's weapons program and luxury goods for leader Kim Jong Un.It is the first formal acknowledgement by the South that the 55,000 North Korean workers at the Kaesong complex saw little of the $160 they were paid on average a month.South Korea on Wednesday suspended the project as punishment for the North's long-range rocket launch on Feb. 7 saying it would no longer allow the funds paid to Kaesong to be used in the North's missile and nuclear programs.The North conducted its fourth nuclear test last month.The North called the South's move to suspend operations "a declaration of war" and kicked out all South Korean workers on Thursday and froze the assets of the South Korean firms."The wages for the North's workers and other fees were paid in cash in U.S. dollars to the North's authorities and not to the workers," South Korea's Unification Ministry said on Sunday. "This is believed to be channeled in the same way as other foreign currency it earned."The cash is then kept and managed by the ruling Workers' Party's Office 39 and other agencies, the ministry said. The ministry said it had confirmed the movement of the money through various sources but did not specify them.Office 39 is widely believed to exist to finance the luxurious lifestyle of the North's leader. The office is also believed to be part of the North's agencies that fund the country's missile and nuclear program.The South Korean government and companies had invested about 1 trillion won ($829 million) in Kaesong including 616 billion won in cash since it opened more than a decade ago, Unification Minister Hong Yong-pyo said on Wednesday.Kaesong's North Korean workers were given a taste of life in the South, working for the 124 mostly small and medium sized manufacturers that operated there, about 54 km (34 miles) northwest of Seoul.The minimum wage for North Korean workers was about $70 a month, although the companies paid more than double that amount after overtime and bonuses - still low compared with wages in the South.The Kaesong project resulted from the first summit meeting of the rival Koreas in 2000, where their leaders pledged reconciliation and cooperation. It was the last remaining symbol of that effort in volatile North-South relations over the years.Kaesong had been shut only once before, for five months in 2013, amid heightened tensions following North Korea's third nuclear test, although its continuing existence often seemed tenuous.(Reporting by Jack Kim; Editing by Eric Meijer and Michael Perry)

US deploys more Patriot missiles in South Korea-AFP-February 12, 2016 11:42 PM-YAHOONEWS

Seoul (AFP) - The United States has temporarily deployed an additional Patriot missile battery in South Korea following North Korea's recent nuclear test and long-range rocket launch, US Forces Korea said Saturday.The move came as the two allies plan to start detailed discussions on bringing in an advanced, high-altitude US missile defence system opposed by China as early as next week."This deployment is part of an emergency deployment readiness exercise conducted in response to recent North Korean provocations," the US Forces Korea said in a press statement, referring to the temporary roll-out of a Patriot missile battery, which was flown from Fort Bliss, Texas this week."Exercises like this ensure we are always ready to defend against an attack from North Korea," said Lieutenant General Thomas Vandal, commander of the US Eighth Army.The newly deployed Patriot battery is conducting ballistic missile defence training with the Eighth Army's 35th Air Defense Artillery Brigade at Osan Air Base, some 47 kilometres (30 miles) south of Seoul.The brigade has its own two Patriot battalions. One Patriot battalion is reportedly composed of four batteries.Just hours after North Korea launched a long-range rocket that both condemned as a disguised ballistic missile test, South Korea and the United States announced their intention to start discussions on deployment of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defence System (THAAD).The Pentagon has since stressed that it would like the system to be deployed in South Korea "as quickly as possible".A senior South Korean defence ministry official said Friday detailed discussions on THAAD deployment would kick off as early as next week.China and Russia argue that it would trigger an arms race in the region, with Beijing voicing its "deep concern" over the deployment.South Korea had previously declined to formally discuss bringing in THAAD in deference to the sensitivities of China, its most important trade partner.But North Korea's continued missile testing and frustration with Beijing's resistance to imposing harsh sanctions on Pyongyang apparently triggered a change in Seoul's stance.

Beijing pins Hong Kong riot on 'radical separatists'-AFP-FEB 14,16-YAHOONEWS

In unusually blunt remarks on a local Hong Kong matter, Zhang Xiaoming, Beijing's top representative in the semi-autonomous city, told reporters the violence that left dozens of police officers hurt also showed elements of "terror"."After the riot in Mong Kok, we are feeling very much shocked and saddened," Zhang told reporters."We strongly condemn those radical separatists who have become increasingly violent, even (carrying out) activities that showed terror tendencies," the director of China's Liaison Office in Hong Kong said in Chinese.The clashes erupted when protesters gathered following official attempts to remove illegal hawkers from the busy commercial neighbourhood of Mong Kok during Lunar New Year celebrations late Monday night.Police fired warning shots in the air, while demonstrators hurled bricks levered up from pavements, charged police lines with homemade shields and set rubbish on fire.About 100 people were injured, including police officers, journalists and protesters, and 65 were arrested in the rare outbreak of violence.Some 30 have been charged with rioting.Hong Kong leader Leung Chun-ying said Sunday most of the protesters were unemployed and did not reflect mainstream views."The majority of them are jobless. Quite many of them belong to radical political groups. Their political demands... cannot reflect the majority of society," the chief executive said.The battles have been dubbed the "fishball revolution" after a favourite Hong Kong street snack and reflect underlying tensions over the erosion of the city's traditions.Demonstrators included "localist" activists who want to restrict Beijing's influence on the city.Mong Kok, on the city's Kowloon peninsula, was the scene of some of the worst violence during the 79-day "Occupy" pro-democracy street protests in late 2014.The mass rallies seeking fully free leadership elections in the city blocked some major streets for more than two months. But the rallies failed to win concessions from the authorities.Pro-democracy activist Joseph Cheng said weighing in on the protest was a tactic by Beijing to justify its hardline approach to the pro-democracy movement."The whole idea, of course, is to condemn the protesters in association with the pro-democracy movement in the public opinion war," the retired scholar, who has advocated direct leadership elections for Hong Kong, told AFP."Condemning the riot has the purpose of justifying the hardline (stance) of Beijing,"He added he expected the Hong Kong authorities to conduct a "neutral investigation" into the incident, despite the outspoken comments from Beijing.Hong Kong was returned by Britain to China in 1997 with its way of life protected for 50 years by a joint agreement.But there are fears that freedoms enshrined in the agreement are being eroded by Chinese influence, including the recent case of five Hong Kong publishers known for titles critical of Beijing, four of whom it is confirmed have been detained on the mainland.

Navy considers electric gun for a Zumwalt-class destroyer-Associated Press By DAVID SHARP-feb 14,16-yahoonews

BATH, Maine (AP) — Development of a futuristic weapon depicted in video games and science fiction is going well enough that a Navy admiral wants to skip an at-sea prototype in favor of installing an operational unit aboard a destroyer planned to go into service in 2018.The Navy has been testing an electromagnetic railgun and could have an operational unit ready to go on one of the new Zumwalt-class destroyers under construction at Bath Iron Works.Adm. Pete Fanta, the Navy's director of surface warfare, has floated the idea of foregoing the current plan to put a prototype on another vessel this year and instead put it directly on future USS Lyndon B. Johnson, though no final decision has been made."The Zumwalt-class is one of a number of options being explored for the electromagnetic railgun," said Lt. Cmdr. Hayley Sims, a Navy spokeswoman. "Due to the size, weight and power requirements, some platforms will be better suited for the technology than others."Railguns use electricity instead of gunpowder to accelerate a projectile at six or seven times the speed of sound — creating enough kinetic energy to destroy targets.It's literal whiz-bang technology that holds the possibility of providing an effective weapon at pennies on the dollars compared to smart bombs and missiles.There has been talk since the inception of the Zumwalt program that the massive destroyers would be a likely candidate for the weapon because of its power plant. The USS Johnson will be the third and final destroyer in the Zumwalt class.The 600-foot-long warship uses marine turbines similar to those that propel the Boeing 777 to help produce up to 78 megawatts of electricity for use in propulsion, weapons and sensors. That's more than enough juice for the railgun.If it's placed on the warship, the system could replace one of the forward turrets housing a 155mm gun that fires rocket-propelled projectiles.For now, however, the official plan remains for the railgun prototype to be tested aboard a joint high speed vessel this year. But there are concerns that the plan may be pushed back into 2017, and Fanta suggested skipping it altogether.The railgun, along with laser weaponry, are two futuristic technologies that Fanta said have evolved from being a matter of scientific research to one of practical engineering.The Navy is interested in those weapons — along with smart munitions that can improve existing naval guns — because of their low cost as well as lethality."The Navy is determined to increase the offensive punch of the surface warships," said Loren Thompson, a defense analyst at the Lexington Institute. "To do that with a limited budget, it needs to look at everything from smart munitions to railguns to lasers."The railgun discussion isn't widely known inside the shipyard.Bath Iron Works, a subsidiary of General Dynamics, had no comment.Shipbuilder Charles Davis said there was talk of a railgun when the yard began work on the first ship in the class, but he said there's been no discussion since then."They've been pretty tight-lipped about it," he said.___Follow David Sharp on Twitter at https://twitter.com/David_Sharp_AP.

Republicans’ vow to block Obama Supreme Court nominee comes with risks-Meredith Shiner-Political correspondent-February 13, 2016-yahoonews

The U.S. Senate should not act to fill the sudden Supreme Court vacancy opened up by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia until after President Obama departs office, Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said in a statement Saturday.“The American people should have a voice in the selection of the next Supreme Court justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president,” McConnell said.Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, as well as current Republican presidential candidates and Sens. Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz, also came out of the gate opposing confirmation of a final Obama Supreme Court nominee.The Republican majority in the Senate gives the party leverage for a battle with Obama over a new Supreme Court nomination, but would not be without risks. Any nominee would need 60 affirmative votes on cloture to proceed to final confirmation, meaning that Obama would be under pressure to choose a more moderate versus liberal justice in order to win the at least 14 Republicans he would need to support his nominee.That pressure would vanish if Republicans cannot retake the White House in 2016 or hold their majority in the Senate. Many Republicans in D.C. are skeptical that the party will be able to do either, especially if Donald J. Trump or Ted Cruz win the GOP presidential nomination. These establishment Republicans have seen evidence that Trump or Cruz would create a drag on races lower down the ballot, such as the Senate races in November, and are worried Republicans could lose the Senate.Republicans currently hold the Senate majority with 54 members, but 24 of those seats are being contested this year — including seven in states where Obama won twice.If Republicans wait and Democrats win the White House and regain the Senate majority, a hypothetical President Hillary Clinton, for example, would have greater leeway to select a more liberal justice than Obama might have submitted.But the politics could also work in Republicans’ favor, as mobilization for a Supreme Court nomination by a Republican president could cause conservative voter turnout to spike in 2016, helping candidates across the board. Democrats, of course, would similarly seek to boost turnout and support based on the nomination fight (or lack thereof).There is precedent for the Senate to act in a presidential year on a confirmation. Justice Anthony Kennedy was chosen by Republican President Ronald Reagan and confirmed by a Democratic Senate on February 3, 1988 — also the last year of a lame-duck presidency.But SCOTUSBlog’s Tom Goldstein does not see a scenario in which Senate Republicans will change their minds.“Theoretically, that process could conclude before the November election. But realistically, it cannot absent essentially a consensus nominee — and probably not even then, given the stakes,” he wrote. “A Democratic president would replace a leading conservative vote on a closely divided court. The Republican Senate will not permit such a consequential nomination — which would radically shift the balance of ideological power on the court — to go forward.”Democrats, of course, do not see it that way, but without the Senate majority, there’s little they can do but highlight what they believe is political negligence and then campaign on that. Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid called on Obama to send a nominee to the Senate, and Obama said Saturday night he would, indeed, nominate someone.The top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Patrick Leahy, released a statement mourning Scalia and calling on Republicans to work with Democrats to replace him swiftly because failing to do so would weaken democracy “for partisan reasons.”“I hope that no one will use this sad news to suggest that the president or the Senate should not perform its constitutional duty,” Leahy said. “The American people deserve to have a fully functioning Supreme Court. The Supreme Court of the United States is too important to our democracy for it to be understaffed for partisan reasons. It is only February. The president and the Senate should get to work without delay to nominate, consider and confirm the next justice to serve on the Supreme Court.”

Ted Cruz says he will ‘absolutely’ filibuster Obama’s nominee to replace Scalia-Dylan Stableford-Senior editor-February 14, 2016-yahoonews

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is threatening to filibuster any Supreme Court nominee made by President Obama to replace the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.“This should be a decision for the people,” Cruz said on ABC’s “This Week With George Stephanopoulos” on Sunday. “Let the election decide. If the Democrats want to replace [Scalia], they need to win the election. But I don’t think the American people want a court that will strip our religious liberties. I don’t think the American people want a court that will mandate unlimited abortions on demand, partial-birth abortion with taxpayer funding and no parental notification, and I don’t think the American people want a court that will write the Second Amendment out of the Constitution.”On Saturday, Obama said he plans “to fulfill my constitutional responsibilities to nominate a successor in due time,” pressing the Senate to “fulfill its responsibility to give that person a fair hearing and a timely vote.”Asked whether he would filibuster Obama’s choice, Cruz said: "Absolutely.”Scalia, who died suddenly Saturday at the age of 79, was the court’s longest-serving member and an outspoken conservative champion of the Constitution.His death, Cruz said, will have a “profound impact” on the Republican primary — and that voters ought to think about who the next president would nominate to the land’s highest court.“If Donald Trump becomes president, the Second Amendment will be written out of the Constitution because it is abundantly clear that Donald Trump is not a conservative,” Cruz said. “He will not invest the capital to confirm a conservative, so the result will be the same whether it’s Hillary [Clinton], Bernie [Sanders] or Donald Trump. The Second Amendment will go away.”Cruz added: “Anyone that writes checks to Chuck Schumer and Harry Reid and Jimmy Carter and Hillary Clinton does not care about conservative justices on the court.”During Saturday night’s GOP debate in South Carolina, Trump urged Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to stop Obama from nominating Scalia’s replacement.“It’s called delay, delay, delay,” Trump said.Dr. Ben Carson also called on the president to delay picking a Supreme Court nominee.“We need to start thinking about the divisiveness that is going on in our country,” Carson said. “I looked at some of the remarks that people made after finding out that Justice Scalia had died, and they were truly nasty remarks. And that we have managed to get to that position in our country is truly a shame. And we should be thinking about how we could create some healing in this land.”Florida Sen. Marco Rubio called Scalia one of the greatest defenders of the Constitution in U.S. history.“You talk about someone who defended consistently the original meaning of the Constitution, who understood that the Constitution was not there to be interpreted based on the fads of the moment, but it was there to be interpreted according to its original meaning,” Rubio said. “Justice Scalia understood that better than anyone in the history of this republic.”Rubio continued: “I do not believe the president should appoint someone. And it’s not unprecedented. In fact, it has been over 80 years since a lame duck president has appointed a Supreme Court justice. And it reminds us of this — how important this election is. Someone on this stage will get to choose the balance of the Supreme Court, and it will begin by filling this vacancy that’s there now. And we need to put people on the bench that understand that the Constitution is not a living and breathing document. It is to be interpreted as originally meant.”Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush believes that Obama has “every right to nominate” someone to replace Scalia, but he “needs to appoint someone with a proven conservative record, similar to Justice Scalia, that is a lover of liberty, that believes in limited government, that consistently applied that kind of philosophy, that didn’t try to legislator from the bench, that was respectful of the Constitution.”During the debate, Cruz offered his full-throated praise of Scalia, and warned voters that the next justice could have a profound impact on their lives.“He was somebody that I knew for 20 years,” Cruz said. “He was a brilliant man. He was faithful to the Constitution. He changed the arc of American legal history. And I’ll tell you, his passing tonight, our prayers are with his family, with his wife, Maureen, who he adored, his nine children, his 36 grandkids. But it underscores the stakes of this election. We are one justice away from a Supreme Court that will strike down every restriction on abortion adopted by the states. We are one justice away from a Supreme Court that will reverse the Heller decision, one of Justice Scalia’s seminal decisions that upheld the Second Amendment right to keep and to bear arms.”He added: “We are one justice away from a Supreme Court that would undermine the religious liberty of millions of Americans — and the stakes of this election, for this year, for the Senate, the Senate needs to stand strong and say, ‘We’re not going to give up the U.S. Supreme Court for a generation by allowing Barack Obama to make one more liberal appointee.’”

Donald Trump Doubles Down on Attacks of Bush Family-ABC News By NICKI ROSSOLL-feb 14,16-yahoonews

Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump doubled down on his attacks of his rival Jeb Bush and his brother, former President George W. Bush, Sunday on ABC's "This Week."“I think he did a terrible thing when he went into Iraq,” Trump said about the former president. The real estate mogul then criticized other Republicans for not going after Pres. Bush and instead being "politically correct."At Saturday's debate in South Carolina, Trump got into a heated exchange with the former Florida governor about his brother's role in the 9/11 attacks."I'm sick and tired of him going after my family," Bush said to applause Saturday night. "While Donald Trump was building a reality TV show, my brother was building a security apparatus to keep us safe and I'm proud of what he did.""The World Trade Center came down during your brother's reign. Remember that," Trump responded.When pressed about his previous call to impeach Pres. Bush, Trump did not dispute that he said it but wouldn’t repeat it, saying it was “past time.”Trump also shifted blame for the Affordable Care Act to the two brothers."Jeb Bush pushed him through the brother. They were close," Trump said referring to the appointment of Chief Justice John Roberts. "We have Obamacare because of Ted Cruz, Jeb Bush, and George Bush."    

Tens of Thousands of Sharks Spotted 'A Stone's Throw' From Florida Beaches-Inside Edition By Inside Edition-yahoonews-feb 14,16

Researchers flying above the Sunshine State's Atlantic coast on Friday spotted a massive migration of black tip sharks swimming uncomfortably close to popular beaches."There are literally tens of thousands of sharks a stone's throw away from our shoreline,"  You could throw a pebble and literally strike a shark. They are that close," said Florida Atlantic University biological sciences professor Dr. Stephen Kajiura.Kajiura is part of a team that's researchers who tag and observe the blacktips in an attempt to better understand their migration habits. He told WPEC that the blacktip sharks were densest across the 20 mile stretch from highly populated Palm Beach to Singer Island, Florida.While the blacktip has never been connected to a single fatal attack, scientists believe they are likely to blame for most shark bite incidents in Florida due to their prevalence in the waters off the coast of the state.Expert Gives Tips to Protect Yourself Against Shark Attack: 'Punch a Shark in the Snout, Grab His Gills'-Those who'd like to plan their trip around this migration event, take note: the sharks will likely be sticking around in Palm Beach County for the next month or so. Or, just take your chances. Kajiura doesn't believe beachgoers should be too concerned--though his reasoning might not convince everyone."Even though we have this huge number of sharks...we have relatively few bites," the researcher told the Palm Beach Daily News. "When you consider the number of people in the water and the number of sharks in the water you’d think there would be a lot of interaction."

Pope to lead mass in rough Mexico crime city-AFP By Jennifer Gonzalez Covarrubias, Jean-Louis De La Vaissiere-FEB 14,16-YAHOONEWS

Ecatepec (Mexico) (AFP) - Pope Francis will celebrate an open-air mass in a crime-plagued Mexico City suburb on Sunday after thousands of pilgrims spent the night outdoors, awaiting his message of peace in the cold.The Catholic faithful wrapped themselves in blankets, using plastic and cardboard to build makeshift tents on a university's field, where 300,000 were expected for the service.Ecatepec, a concrete maze of 1.6 million people, is in the state of Mexico, a region that has become infamous for a spate of disappearances of women, whose bodies sometimes turn up in abandoned lots or canals.Some 600 women have been killed between January 2014 and September 2015 in the state, according to the non-governmental National Citizen Observatory of Feminicides.Some pilgrims said that despite the city's bad reputation, they were not concerned about spending the night outside. Hundreds of police officers stood guard around the field."We know that Ecatepec has a lot of problems like the lack of security and kidnappings," said Rodrigo Perez, a 25-year-old public security student.But the pope's visit, he said, is a chance to "talk about peace and unity."- 'Prophetic courage' -The Argentine-born pontiff made it clear before his arrival in Mexico that he would speak out about the corruption and crime afflicting parts of the country.He used his visit to the National Palace and the capital's cathedral on Saturday to bluntly tell political and religious leaders to do more to bring peace to the country.At the palace, with President Enrique Pena Nieto by his side in a patio packed with lawmakers and government officials, Francis told them they had a duty to give "true justice" and "effective security" to Mexicans.Later, he told bishops at the cathedral to take on the scourge of drug trafficking with "prophetic courage" and avoid hiding "behind anodyne denunciations."Many Mexicans, fed up with a decade of drug violence that has left 100,000 dead or missing, had hoped to hear such words from the 79-year-old pontiff.Pope Francis has chosen to visit some of Mexico's most troubled regions during his five-day trip to the world's second most populous Catholic country.The crimes against women in the state of Mexico, which surrounds the capital, prompted the federal government to declare a "gender violence alert" requiring protective measures in 11 towns, including Ecatepec.- Faith in God -"People who kill or who are wicked should think about the fact that we are women and that we should be respected," said Mariana Virginia Hernandez, 45, who came from the neighboring state of Hidalgo for the mass and wore several sweaters and a poncho to resist the cold.Ana Yeli Perez, legal adviser at the National Citizen Observatory of Feminicides, said the organization is "concerned about the lack of visibility of the issue because the government controls it. We hope the pope speaks about it."But Karla Paola Romero, a 21-year-old activist who was nearly kidnapped three years ago, said gender violence would not be resolved "with a miracle."Romero, who will not be at the mass, spoke near a hill where a woman's body was found in December. The victim had been raped and hanged.The pope will face other tough issues during his trip.On Monday, Pope Francis will travel to Mexico's poorest and least Catholic region, the southern indigenous state of Chiapas.He will visit on Tuesday the capital of Michoacan, a western state where farms formed vigilante forces to counter a drug cartel in 2013.The pope caps the trip in Mexico's former murder capital, Ciudad Juarez, for a mass that will span the US and Mexican borders to highlight the plight of migrants.

Police: 3 killed, scores to hospitals after huge I-78 pileup-Associated Press-feb 13,16-yahoonews

FREDERICKSBURG, Pa. (AP) — A pileup involving dozens of vehicles on a Pennsylvania interstate that killed three people and sent dozens to hospitals appears to have been related to a passing snow squall, authorities said Saturday.Trooper Justin Summa said three fatalities had been confirmed following the 9:45 a.m. Saturday crash which involved at least 50 commercial and private vehicles. Police said more than 40 people were transported to several hospitals following the crash in Interstate 78 in Bethel Township.The pileup left tractor-trailers, box trucks and cars tangled together across three traffic lanes and into the snow-covered median about 75 miles northwest of Philadelphia.Megan Manlove of Penn State Hershey Medical Center said 10 patients had been brought in from the crash, three in critical condition, three with moderate to severe injuries and four with minor injuries.Trooper Adam Reed said investigators believe that "passing snow squalls played a role in causing the crash."PennLive.com reported that some witnesses reported sudden whiteout conditions on the interstate before the crash."It just turned real white," Raul Jardine of Allentown said, adding that all he could see were the brake lights of the car in front of him, so he slowed down and was hit from behind.Nearby resident James Steffy told WHP-TV that the crash "sounded like two bombs went off.""We thought it was thunderclouds, and my wife ran up over the hill and saw the accident," he said.Police said more than 70 people were taken to a warming shelter operated by the American Red Cross at a firehouse in the area."We're keeping them warm, keeping them fed and hopefully going to provide them with some rental cars," Summa said.The Penn State-Lehigh Valley men's basketball team was heading to a game in New Kensington when the team's chartered bus was hit by a tractor-trailer, the university said. Officials said there were no serious injuries to anyone and the students were "on a warm, dry bus" but were being taken to a hospital as a precaution.Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency spokesman Cory Angell said an emergency operation center was activated and a special response team was at Fort Indiantown Gap to deliver stockpiled supplies such as food and water if they are needed.Angell said drivers were being urged to use caution due to extremely cold temperatures and blowing snow making roads hazardous even though they have been plowed."You could be driving down the interstate and all of a sudden conditions change because the winds are drifting the snow," he said.Police said the interstate would remain closed until at least midnight, and people wishing to recover their cars should call the state police in Lebanon County after 6 a.m. Sunday.___This story has been corrected to show that police now say more than 40 people were taken to hospitals, not 70.

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Scalia dead: Texas governor-Reuters-FEB 13,16

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Conservative U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, 79, has died, Texas Governor Greg Abbott said.In a statement, Abbott extended his "deepest condolences" to Scalia's family.The San Antonio News-Express said Scalia had apparently died of natural causes while visiting a luxury resort in West Texas.Scalia, appointed to the top U.S. court in 1986 by President Ronald Reagan, was known for his strident conservative views and theatrical flair in the courtroom.His death comes as the court is set to hear its first major abortion case in nearly 10 years, and ahead of key cases on voting rights, affirmative action and immigration.(Reporting by Roberta Rampton and Scott Malone; Editing by Paul Simao)

Deep freeze grips U.S. northeast, triggers fatal 50-car pileup-Reuters By Scott Malone and Valerie Vande Panne-FEB 13,16-YAHOONEWS

BOSTON, Mass (Reuters) - A dangerous cold snap bringing life-threatening cold was settling in across the northeastern United States on Saturday and a snow squall triggered a pileup of dozens of vehicles on a Pennsylvania highway that left several people dead.Officials warned people to stay indoors away from what the National Weather Service described as "life threatening" cold. Wind chill advisories were in effect over parts of nine states extending from northern Pennsylvania to western Maine, with forecasters expecting gusts up to 45 miles per hour (72 kph).While the storm was not bringing much snow to region, a squall outside Harrisburg, Pennsylvania triggered a pileup of more than 50 cars and trucks, shutting an interstate highway, state police said. Multiple people died in the accident, the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency said on its web site.The agency did not say how many people had died and a spokesperson could not be reached for immediate comment.Officials warned that the cold would intensify through the day and into Sunday."Wind chills will be getting colder and colder as the day goes on," said Alan Dunham, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Taunton, Massachusetts.The temperature in Boston was expected to drop to -7 degrees Fahrenheit overnight (-21.7°C), but feel as cold as -30 degrees Fahrenheit (-34.4°C) with the wind chill.New York City was bracing for its coldest night in 20 years. Mayor Bill de Blasio said officials had put on extra staff to help residents who had lost heat."It's so important to take this seriously, to stay indoors to the maximum extent possible," de Blasio told reporters.At Boston's Pine Street Inn 485-bed homeless shelter, workers were finding cots, mats and even chairs to accommodate the roughly 600 people they were expecting tonight, said spokeswoman Barbara Trevisan."No one will be turned out for lack of space," Trevisan said.In Boston, some hurried through their mornings to get outdoor chores done before the worst cold set in."Right now I'm going to drink a coffee" to stay warm, said Carmen Pichente, 40, en route to her job at a Boston restaurant. "Tomorrow, I'm going to stay at home all day."Others brushed it off."It's nothing. I lived in Boston all my life," said Eddie Brown, 51, a delivery truck driver out on his rounds. Asked why he wasn't wearing a coat, Brown replied, "I got long underwear on."(Additional reporting by Fiona Ortiz in Chicago; Editing by Tom Heneghan, Hugh Lawson, Diane Craft and W Simon)

Two people were treated for hypothermia and frostbite overnight as the wind made it feel like  –40 C in Ottawa.In the first incident, a man in his 40s was found by the RCMP at the intersection of Bank and Wellington Streets, said the Ottawa Paramedic Service.Later Friday night, bystanders found a man in his 20s suffering from hypothermia on the Rideau Canal near Carleton University.He was "extricated" from the canal with the help of police and the National Capital Commission, paramedics said.Both men were found in an "altered level of consciousness" and as of early Saturday morning were in hospital in stable condition, said paramedics.Environment Canada issued an extreme cold warning for Ottawa on Friday. The wind chill made it feel like –40 C outside by 4 a.m. Saturday morning.The city's public health unit has also issued a frostbite warning.

New Zealand cliffs collapse in Christchurch earthquake-14 February 2016-bbcnews

Cliffs have collapsed in New Zealand during an earthquake in the city of Christchurch on the South Island.No serious damage or fatalities were reported in the Valentine's Day quake that struck at 13:13 local time (00.13 GMT).Beaches to the east of Christchurch were busy with swimmers and surfers when rocks began to fall into the sea.The 5.7 magnitude quake occurred days before the anniversary of a deadly one in 2011.That destroyed the city centre and killed 185 people.New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim.New Zealand's seismological body GNS Science classified Sunday's earthquake as "severe", recording that it took place at a depth of 15km (nine miles) and 15km to the east of the city.Resident Stephen O'Dwyer said he was on the beach with his wife walking their dog when the cliff in Sumner started to collapse."The ground started to go soft. Water was coming up under the sand and people were sinking down to the ankles as the ground went soft. It shook for about 20 seconds," he told the BBC.The quake sent large clouds of dust billowing over the suburb."I have to say that it was business as usual 15 minutes after the fact," said local Richard Loffhagen, who took a photograph of the dust and debris rising from Scarborough Beach.During the tremor, which was reportedly felt across the South Island, some shops in Christchurch were evacuated and photos on social media showed items that had fallen off shelves.A Polish couple posted a clip on YouTube showing the cracks their house suffered, saying it was their first experience of an earthquake in Christchurch and they had not expected it to be so intense.Are you in Christchurch?

Oklahoma hit by its third-strongest earthquake ever: USGS-Reuters-FEB 13,16-YAHOONEWS

(Reuters) - Oklahoma was struck by a magnitude 5.1 earthquake on Saturday morning, the third-strongest quake ever recorded in the state, which has experienced a surge in seismic activity in recent years, the U.S. Geological Survey reported.The quake at 11:07 a.m. local time (1707 GMT) was followed by several aftershocks in the next 90 minutes, including one with a magnitude of 3.9, the USGS said. The first quake was felt from Kansas City, Missouri, to Dallas, Texas, but no damages or injuries were reported.Oil fields have boomed in Oklahoma over the past decade thanks to advances in hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling, and seismologists have said the state's frequent earthquakes may be linked to disposal wells that inject saltwater, a natural byproduct of oil and gas work, into deep underground caverns.Earthquakes in Oklahoma in January led to calls for the governor to make changes to oil and gas drilling regulations.Saturday's quake was centered about 95 miles (153 km) northwest of Oklahoma City, and at an estimated depth of 4 miles (7 km), the USGS said.The epicenter is near the East Campbell Gas Field and about 75 miles (121 km) west of Cushing, Oklahoma, which is one of the largest oil storage hubs in the world and is known as the Pipeline Crossroads of the World.Only two previous earthquakes in Oklahoma were stronger than Saturday's: a magnitude 5.6 quake in 2011 and a 5.5 magnitude quake in 1952, said Robert Williams, a geophysicist with USGS.USGS initially said that Saturday's quake was probably the second-biggest in the state's history but then revised it after reviewing records.The USGS said it was not known if Saturday's quake was related to oil and gas production activities.The state has been recording about two-and-a-half earthquakes a day of a magnitude 3 or greater, a rate 600 times greater than observed before 2008, the Oklahoma Geological Survey said in a report last year.(Reporting by Fiona Ortiz in Chicago and Letitia Stein in Tampa, Fla.; Editing by W Simon and Matthew Lewis)
