Asteroid samples escaping from jammed NASA spacecraft

A NASA spacecraft is stuffed with so much asteroid rubble from this week’s grab that it’s jammed open and precious particles are drifting away in space, scientists said Friday. Scientists announced the news three days after the spacecraft named Osiris-Rex briefly touched asteroid Bennu, NASA's first attempt at such a mission. The mission’s lead scientist, Dante Lauretta, said Tuesday's operation 200 million miles away collected far more material than expected for return to Earth — in the hundreds of grams.

Hospitalization data flawed in Missouri, perhaps elsewhere

O'FALLON, Mo. (AP) — With the number of coronavirus patients requiring hospitalization rising at alarming levels, Missouri and perhaps a handful of other states are unable to post accurate data on COVID-19 dashboards because of a flaw in the federal reporting system. Since Tuesday, the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Service’s coronavirus dashboard has posted a message that the total number of patients hospitalized for COVID-19 has been underreported since Oct. 17. The note blamed “challenges entering data” to the portal used by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for collecting daily hospitalizations around the country.

Ag Exporters Grapple With COVID, Trade War, Political Unknowns (With Video)

It's a recipe for trouble: COVID disruptions are pulling refrigerated containers away from food production areas. Twice this year, outbreaks stymied U.S. food shipments to China. Tariffs are still taking a bite out of ag sales. Trade tensions with China remain high. Trade negotiations with the EU are intensifying. And the presidential election could reset the entire equation in less than two weeks.To put the myriad issues faced by U.S. food exporters in perspective, FreightWaves interviewed Washington, D.C.-based Peter Friedmann, executive director of the Agriculture Transportation Coalition (AgTC), during the Cold Chain Summit on Friday.Reefers in the wrong place Containerized exports from China have flooded into U.S. ports over the past three months. The growing problem: getting enough empty containers back to China for refills.U.S. food exporters shipping goods in reefers (refrigerated containers) face the same equipment challenge, albeit in the opposite direction. "We have been dealing with this problem since COVID began," Friedmann confirmed."We need those refrigerated empty containers in the places where agriculture is sourced, places like the Midwest. When refrigerated containers come in with shrimp or other products we import, they tend to go to where everybody lives, which is the coastal states. They're unloaded in New York/New Jersey, or Los Angeles/Long Beach, and they tend to stay there."Can you imagine when you have to reposition an empty refrigerated container from New York/New Jersey all the way to Junction City, Kansas? It's very expensive. And who actually pays for that? U.S. exporters."COVID disruptions to China-bound boxes: Part 1 Logistical issues have emerged on the destination side, in China, as well.U.S. reefer export cargoes faced their first big problem at Chinese ports back in February. The initial lockdowns halted Chinese trucking service from the terminals. The terminals' reefer plugs (where refrigerated boxes connect to the power source) maxed out because truckers couldn't bring reefers to the hinterland. Liners tacked surcharges onto U.S. reefer exports to China and diverted those containers to other ports.Ultimately, China reopened its inland transport network and truckers cleared reefers from the terminal plugs, making room for fresh imports.COVID disruptions to China-bound boxes: Part 2 The next big COVID challenge came in the summer. Chinese authorities reported an outbreak at a Beijing food market in June. They blamed it on infected frozen imported food and instituted new inspections at the ports.By July, inspections were heavily delaying the inland movement of reefers from Chinese ports. Terminal reefer plugs filled up. Liners instituted surcharges and diverted China-bound reefer cargo once again.AgTC's first concern "was whether the Chinese actually believed COVID could be carried on foodstuffs or whether this was another one of their phony phytosanitary restrictions to protect some domestic interest," said Friedmann."The scientific evidence shows that COVID doesn't live on frozen salmon or refrigerated broccoli or whatever. But we concluded that the Chinese actually believed that it could. With some countries, you can tell them they're wrong. But with other countries, like China, you can't."FreightWaves Senior Editor Greg Miller (left); AgTC's Peter Friedmann (right)Chinese authorities demanded that U.S. food shippers guarantee cargoes were COVID-free. Freidmann said this was effectively impossible. Instead, AgTC developed a form that exporters could submit to Chinese officials to guarantee exporters had complied with all safety protocols.Ultimately, the problem eased and disappeared. This issue no longer waylays U.S. exports to China, Friedmann confirmed.The reason: U.S. agriculture exporters weren't the only ones who wanted to resolve the issue. "The Chinese customers themselves did not like the disruption and there was pressure on the Chinese government from Chinese citizens and Chinese companies to accept the AgTC form."Remember the trade war? It's easy to forget amid the coronavirus chaos, but the U.S. has been in the midst of a trade war for the past several years — and U.S. food exporters have been unwillingly thrust onto the front line."Our highest-value agriculture exports tend to be refrigerated: chilled or frozen beef and pork, frozen poultry, lobster, salmon and other fish products," said Friedmann. "We have trade disputes all around the world. And in virtually all of them, refrigerated agriculture exports from the U.S. play a very central role and are very much in jeopardy."When China wanted to retaliate against our tariffs, they went after pork. We're in negotiations with the EU right now, and it's about U.S. beef with the British, for Brexit, and it's about beef, cheese and pork with the E.U. These negotiations always seem to be about refrigerated agriculture."The biggest risk, he said, is that trade tensions can induce a foreign buyer to switch to a non-U.S. source and it's hard to win them back. "The supply chain for refrigerated products is very complex and challenging. Once a change is made, nobody wants to go back and restore the supply chain they had with the U.S."Trade fallout so far Asked about fallout for U.S. food exporters under the Trump administration's aggressive trade policies, Friedmann confirmed, "Yes, the tariffs have been a negative."However, fallout has been unpredictable."When the first thing China did was retaliate against our pork exports, it decimated our pork exports. Our members were absolutely thrown for a complete loop. For a while, they were exporting virtually no pork."But then the African swine flu decimated China's hog herds and the Chinese were desperate to get protein. They came back into our market and bought as much pork as they could get — even though China had imposed retaliatory tariffs. "Chinese consumers wanted U.S. pork, even though it was more expensive, because they couldn't get it elsewhere. And they bought it in record amounts. So, what started out as a horrible six, seven, eight months for our pork exports turned into one of the best years in history. And we are still exporting a lot of pork to China."Biden vs. Trump The outcome of the presidential election will affect different shipping sectors differently. According to some analysts, a win by Joe Biden would (at least initially) be better for container shipping than a second term for Donald Trump, and the reverse would be true for tanker shipping.Reefer boxes at a terminal in California (Photo: Jim Allen/FreightWaves)Asked how the election outcome could affect U.S. exporters of containerized food, Friedmann responded, "There's a lot of talk about tariffs. Kamala Harris, the candidate for vice president on the Democratic ticket, raised it in the last debate. She said the tariffs were one of the things the Trump administration has done that were bad for the U.S. economy."That would suggest to some casual observers that if the Biden team got elected, it would repeal our tariffs against other countries and other countries would repeal their tariffs against our country."But here in Washington, there's nobody who really expects that there would be a dramatic change in tariffs if there was a change in the administration. "I think the safest way to proceed for our members and for everybody else who trades internationally is to presume that a lot of these restrictions would continue under a new administration, at least for the first six months — because a new administration would have higher priorities."

Russia Poses Greater Election Threat Than Iran, Many U.S. Officials Say

WASHINGTON -- While senior Trump administration officials said this week that Iran has been actively interfering in the presidential election, many intelligence officials said they remained far more concerned about Russia, which in recent days has hacked into state and local computer networks in breaches that could allow Moscow broader access to U.S. voting infrastructure.The discovery of the hacks came as U.S. intelligence agencies, infiltrating Russian networks themselves, have pieced together details of what they believe are Russia's plans to interfere in the presidential race in its final days or immediately after the election Nov. 3. Officials did not make clear what Russia planned to do, but they said its operations would be intended to help President Donald Trump, potentially by exacerbating disputes around the results, especially if the race is too close to call.FBI and Homeland Security officials also announced Thursday that Russia's state hackers had targeted dozens of state and local governments and aviation networks starting in September. They stole data from at least two unidentified victims' computer servers and continued to crawl through some of the affected networks, the agencies said. Other officials said that the targets included some voting-related systems and that they may have been collateral damage in the attacks.So far, there is no evidence that the Russians have changed any vote tallies or voter registration information, officials said. They added that the Russian-backed hackers had penetrated the computer networks without taking further action, as they did in 2016. But U.S. officials expect that if the presidential race is not called on election night, Russian groups could use their knowledge of the local computer systems to deface websites, release nonpublic information or take similar steps that could sow chaos and doubts about the integrity of the results, according to U.S. officials briefed on the intelligence. Such steps could fuel Trump's unsubstantiated claims that the vote is "rigged" and that he can be defeated only if his opponents cheat.Some U.S. intelligence officials view Russia's intentions as more significant than the announcement Wednesday night by the director of national intelligence, John Ratcliffe, that Iran has been involved in the spreading of faked, threatening emails, which were made to appear as if they came from the Proud Boys, a right-wing extremist group.The Treasury Department on Thursday announced sanctions against Iraj Masjedi, a former general in Iran's Revolutionary Guard and the country's ambassador to Iraq. The department said Masjedi had overseen training of pro-Iranian militia groups in Iraq and directed groups responsible for killing U.S. forces there.Officials briefed on the intelligence said that Ratcliffe had accurately summarized the preliminary conclusion about Iran. But Iran's hackers may have accomplished that mission simply by assembling public information and then routing the threatening emails through Saudi Arabia, Estonia and other countries to hide their tracks. One official compared the Iranian action to playing single A baseball, while the Russians are major leaguers.Nonetheless, the Iranian and the Russian activity could pave the way for "perception hacks," which are intended to leave the impression that foreign powers have greater access to the voting system than they really do. Federal officials have warned for months that small breaches could be exaggerated to prompt inaccurate charges of widespread voter fraud.Officials say Russia's ability to change vote tallies nationwide would be difficult, given how disparate U.S. elections are. The graver concern is the potential effect of any attack on a few key precincts in battleground states.Russian hackers recently obtained access "in a couple limited cases, to election jurisdiction, an election-related network," Christopher Krebs, director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, said Thursday. But he was careful to note that the breaches had "nothing to do with the casting and counting" of votes.The hackers believed to be operating at the behest of Russia's Federal Security Service, the FSB -- the successor agency to the Soviet-era KGB -- have infiltrated dozens of state and local computer networks in recent weeks, according to officials and researchers. But Krebs said the attacks appeared to be "opportunistic" in nature, a scattershot break-in of vulnerable systems rather than an attempt to zero in on key battleground states.But officials were alarmed by the combination of the targets, the timing -- the attacks began less than two months ago -- and the adversary, which is known for burrowing inside the supply chain of critical infrastructure that Russia may want to take down in the future.The officials fear that Russia could change, delete or freeze voter registration or pollbook data, making it harder for voters to cast ballots, invalidating mail-in ballots or creating enough uncertainty to undermine results."It's reasonable to assume any attempt at the election systems could be for the same purpose," said John Hultquist, director of threat analysis at FireEye, a security firm that has been tracking the Russian group's foray into state and local systems. "This could be the reconnaissance for disruptive activity."Krebs said so far Russia was not as active as Iran, and its targeting was imprecise. "They're broadly looking to scan for vulnerabilities, and they're working opportunistically," he said.Current and former officials said there was little doubt that Russia remained a greater threat and questioned why the focus was on Iran on Wednesday, though they acknowledged that Iran's interference was real and troubling.Administration officials said the news conference reflected the urgency of the intelligence about Iran. But some saw politics at play. Ratcliffe's focus on Iran would potentially benefit Trump politically."It is concerning to me that the administration is willing to talk about what the Iranians are doing -- supposedly to hurt Trump -- than what the Russians are likely doing to help him," said Jeh Johnson, a former secretary of homeland security in the Obama administration. "If the Russians have in fact breached voter registration data, then the American people deserve to know from their government what it believes the Russians are doing with that data."A senior official briefed on the intelligence said U.S. spy agencies had been tracking the Iranian group responsible for the spoofed emails for some time. As a result, the government was able to quickly debunk the falsified Proud Boys emails and identify Iran as the culprit.Iran's hackers appear to have scanned or penetrated some state and local networks, government officials said Thursday. But security experts said the Proud Boys email campaign that the government attributed to Iran did not appear to be based on hacked materials and instead relied on publicly available information that Florida officials regularly distribute."This was an email sent from a nonexistent domain using publicly available information," said Kevin O'Brien, chief executive of GreatHorn, a cybersecurity firm. "There was no hack here. Your name, your party affiliation, your address and email address are all, generally speaking, public information."O'Brien said the information presented publicly had not persuaded him that Iran was culpable.Speaker Nancy Pelosi also voiced skepticism of Ratcliffe's announcement. "Russia is the villain here," she said before a briefing from intelligence officials. "From what we have seen in the public domain, Iran is a bad actor but in no way equivalent."So far, the FSB's hackers have not zeroed in on swing states, where a hack that affects digital disenfranchisement could have maximum effect; they have taken a scattershot approach instead, hitting systems in multiple states, including some battlegrounds. Experts said they might be just testing to see where they could get in, like a thief trying every doorknob in the neighborhood."My concern is not that they are pinpointing individual races but are gaining access where they can for some disruption down the road," Hultquist said.The threat is similar to the one that officials have highlighted from ransomware attacks, which hold data hostage until victims pay to have access restored. Likewise, officials and researchers believe the Russian attacks would not necessarily change vote tallies but could make voter data inaccessible or delete or change voters' registration data to disenfranchise voters or cause the kind of confusion and delays that would undermine U.S. confidence in the election.In recent years, Homeland Security officials have made a concerted effort to secure voter registration systems and to ensure that election officials have paper copies of voter information in case of disruptions.But they have further to go. In Gainesville, Georgia, this week, a ransomware attack held city systems hostage, including an online map with polling locations and the database used to verify voters' signatures on mail-in ballots.Officials and experts believe the greatest defense against a coordinated cyberattack on the election is not so much how secure these voting system are but how disparate."You can't just 'hit the election,'" said Eric Chien, a cybersecurity director at Symantec, now part of Broadcom, which was among the first to detail the Stuxnet attacks by the United States and Israel on Iran's nuclear program a decade ago. "The soft targets are really the state and local election committees, local websites that provide information about polling places and hold voter registration data."This article originally appeared in The New York Times.(C) 2020 The New York Times Company

At Debate, Trump Presses Peculiar Hometown Strategy: Attack New York

NEW YORK -- In the final weeks of the presidential race, President Donald Trump cannot seem to stop harping on New York City.He wrote on Twitter that his hometown had "gone to hell." He said on Fox News recently that the city was in such despair that he might win the state in November -- despite polls showing that he is far behind. And in both debates against Joe Biden, Trump referred to New York as a ghost town."Look at what's happened to New York; it's a ghost town. It's a ghost town," he said at the debate Thursday. "For so many years I loved it; it was vibrant. It's dying. Everyone is leaving New York."Trump's antagonistic stance lies in stark contrast to Biden, the former vice president who has made his home state of Delaware a central part of his narrative, referring to it several times during Thursday's debate. But for the president, belittling New York seems to serve two purposes: It appeals to his base as a campaign strategy and allows him to address personal scores with his foes.While many New Yorkers feel that Trump has turned his back on the city, the feeling is mutual with Trump. The city overwhelmingly voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016. There were protests when he returned to Trump Tower. His name was stripped from skyscrapers.Democratic prosecutors in New York are digging into his family's finances, and Democratic leaders, like Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio, frequently accuse him of betraying his hometown. Cuomo recently accused the president of "actively trying to kill New York City ever since he was elected."Rep. Peter King, who is close with Trump, said the city serves as a useful foil for the president for "what happens when liberals take over.""If he wants to have a punching bag that plays with the rest of the country, New York City is the perfect target," he said. "You see the boarded-up buildings. You see the dramatic increases in crime. You see people leaving for the Hamptons."Trump, however, has not seen much of the city's problems firsthand. The only visit he made to the city this year was to see his ailing brother before his death in August.Despite his absence, his aides said that Trump was still proud of being from New York, even noting that the president interrupted Biden during Thursday's debate to say that he was born in Queens."President Trump loves New York City and, as you heard last night, is proud to be from Queens," Judd Deere, a White House spokesperson, said in a statement that also included many of Trump's grievances, including "draconian shutdowns" and high taxes."This is a failure of state and local leadership, and this president is not going to let what is happening to New York and many other places happen to the rest of the country," he added.Indeed, the president last month labeled the city an "anarchist jurisdiction" and threatened to slash its funding.But he has also rejected initiatives that would benefit New York. He refused to support a project to build a new rail tunnel under the Hudson River; he punished the city as a sanctuary for immigrants living in the country without legal permission; and he made it more difficult for New Yorkers to fly at airports in a fight over driver's licenses for immigrants living in the country without legal permission.The president is now balking at granting New York more coronavirus recovery funds, despite entreaties from King to reconsider. But the constant taunting from Cuomo and de Blasio -- including painting "Black Lives Matter" on the street in front of Trump Tower -- does not help, King said. They could play nice, he suggested, or "at least tone it down."At this juncture, playing nice would likely have little effect: Trump seems to regard his hometown with such acrimony that his decision to officially move his residency to Florida last year served as a de facto finalization of divorce papers.Anthony Scaramucci, a former White House communications director under Trump, said the president views his attacks as "red meat" for voters who resent East Coast elites."He's throwing New York under the bus because he thinks it's going to help him get reelected," said Scaramucci, who broke with Trump and endorsed Biden."He's determined that those people are in battleground states and disaffected areas of the country that have a disdain for East Coasters, elitists and Wall Street," Scaramucci said.That strategy should ring familiar to Trump: Four years ago, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas attacked "New York values" at a Republican presidential debate. Trump bristled at Cruz's taunts then, saying the city was a "great place" with "wonderful people."But Trump's tone began to change not long after the election, which saw New York City voters side with Clinton 4 to 1.While Trump said he wants to be competitive in New York state, he could fare worse in this election than he did against Clinton. Trump won about 36.5% of votes in the state in 2016 and is polling at less than 30% against Biden.His standing in New York fell during the height of the pandemic and in the aftermath of Black Lives Matter protests, when he said that his "administration will not allow federal tax dollars to fund cities that allow themselves to deteriorate into lawless zones," singling out New York and two other cities.The "anarchist" designation could have a real impact on transit funding and other federal resources, although New York City officials Thursday filed a lawsuit contesting the potential funding cuts.The two investigations in New York have also clearly rankled Trump. The Manhattan District Attorney's Office is seeking his tax returns as part of an investigation into the president and his business practices, focused on potential crimes that include tax and insurance fraud and falsification of business records.New York's attorney general, Letitia James, is looking into whether the Trump family's real estate company committed fraud, and Trump's son Eric was compelled this month to give a deposition in the matter.The president has frequently criticized the prosecutions as politically motivated and unfounded, contending on Twitter that the investigations were products of a "politically corrupt New York."Given the acrimony, Trump's visits to New York have dwindled. He made a few trips to the city last year, for the U.N. General Assembly, fundraising events and an Ultimate Fighting Championship event at Madison Square Garden.The president received a mixture of boos and cheers at the Garden, but King, who was with Trump, said the president "was in his glory.""The next morning at the hotel," King said, "cops and firefighters were taking pictures with him."But when the city's largest police union endorsed Trump this summer, the rally was not held in New York. It was staged nearly 40 miles away at his country club in Bedminster, New Jersey.Trump visited the Hamptons in August for fundraisers and came to Manhattan later that month to visit his younger brother, Robert Trump, in the hospital. The president's only other trip to the state this year was in June to give the commencement address at West Point, about an hour's drive north of the city.U.S. presidents have long visited the sites of major tragedies and natural disasters. President George W. Bush visited New York after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, and President Barack Obama visited communities after mass shootings and tornadoes.Trump has also traveled to Florida and Puerto Rico after devastating hurricanes, and in May, the president said that he would visit New York City, where more than 20,000 people have died from the coronavirus, "when things calm down." He has not done so.Jesse Garcia, a county Republican leader on Long Island, said Trump had shown his love for the city by providing relief funds through the $2 trillion coronavirus relief bill in March and sending the Navy hospital ship USNS Comfort to the city, along with the Army Corps of Engineers."I believe where he has some angst is with the ultraleft progressive socialist Democrats that have let this wonderful city rot from the inside," Garcia said.The president's comments about New York's decline could also help Republicans in local suburban House races on Long Island, King said, including ones involving Rep. Lee Zeldin and Andrew Garbarino, a state assemblyman seeking to succeed King, who is not running for reelection.After so many slights, Cuomo said Trump would need heavy protection if he tried to return."Forget bodyguards," the governor told reporters last month. "He better have an army if he's going to walk down the street in New York."Edward Cox, the former head of the New York State Republican Party who is working on Trump's presidential campaign, said the president would have no qualms about returning, despite Cuomo's threats."He can come here anytime," Cox said. "He doesn't need an army. There would be a few protesters, but he'd be just fine."This article originally appeared in The New York Times.(C) 2020 The New York Times Company

Some hospitals in crisis as US nears high for COVID-19 cases

The United States is approaching a record for the number of new daily coronavirus cases in the latest ominous sign about the disease’s grip on the nation, as states from Connecticut to the Rocky Mountain West reel under the surge. The impact is being felt in every section of the country — a lockdown starting Friday at the Oglala Sioux Tribe’s reservation in South Dakota, a plea by a Florida health official for a halt to children’s birthday parties, dire warnings from Utah’s governor, and an increasingly desperate situation at a hospital in northern Idaho, which is running out of space for patients and considering airlifts to Seattle or Portland, Oregon.

AP FACT CHECK: Trump's skewed indictment of wind power

President Donald Trump's dismissal of wind power as a glitchy, pricey, bird-slaughtering way to make electricity is out of step with the times. Wind-energy costs hit all-time lows as of 2019, averaging less than 2 cents per kilowatt-hour for newly built projects, making it increasingly competitive with other generation sources, according to a report by the Energy Department’s Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. It’s why solar and wind are expanding, along with cheap natural gas, while coal plants and nuclear plants are closing.

France surpasses 1 million confirmed virus cases amid spike

French health authorities say France has recorded over 1 million confirmed coronavirus cases since the start of the pandemic, becoming the second country in Western Europe after Spain to reach that number of known infections. The national health agency released new figures showing that tests had confirmed at least 1,041,075 cases in France this year, including 42,032 new cases reported in the past 24 hours. Like other countries in Europe, France has seen its daily case counts rise sharply in recent weeks as the virus rebounds in Europe.

United Nations should be reformed to 'address global challenges ahead', says Foreign Secretary

The United Nations should be reformed to be "willing to address the global challenges that lie ahead", the Foreign Secretary has said on the organisation’s 75th anniversary. The UN today (October 23) celebrates 75 years since its formation in California after the end of the Second World War. The UK is participating in a raft of events to mark the date, including lighting up Foreign Office buildings in Britain and across the world. Speaking to The Telegraph on the eve of the anniversary, Dominic Raab said the UK is committed to “strengthening multilateralism for the next 75 years” but called for the organisation to be reformed. “We want to see a reformed UN, a UN that is ready and able, willing and equipped to address the global challenges that lie ahead,” he said. “The UK will play its part in that global effort.”

Washington state discovers first 'murder hornet' nest in US

Scientists have discovered the first nest of so-called murder hornets in the United States and plan to wipe it out Saturday to protect native honeybees, officials in Washington state said. After weeks of searching, the agency said it found the nest of Asian giant hornets in Blaine, a city north of Seattle near the Canadian border. The world’s largest hornet at 2 inches (5 centimeters) long, the invasive insects can decimate entire hives of honeybees and deliver painful stings to people.

Israel drops objection to US sale of 'certain' arms to UAE

Israel said Friday it will not oppose the U.S. sale of “certain weapon systems” to the United Arab Emirates following an agreement with Washington to upgrade its own capabilities in order to preserve its military edge in the Middle East. The statement released by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Benny Gantz did not specify which weapons systems, but appeared to refer to the possible sale of F-35 stealth fighter jets, which the UAE hopes to obtain following its agreement to normalize ties with Israel.

Libyan rival armies agree ceasefire and departure of all foreign mercenaries

Libya's two warring factions have signed a "permanent" ceasefire agreement after five days of talks at the United Nations, which hailed the deal as a historic moment following years of turmoil and bloodshed. "Today is a good day for the Libyan people," said Stephanie Williams, the UN's acting envoy to the troubled North African country, where a UN-recognised government in Tripoli has been battling a rival administration based in the east and dominated by military commander Khalifa Haftar. "The two Libyan delegations... signed a complete, country-wide and permanent ceasefire agreement with immediate effect," she told journalists afterwards. Ms Williams said the parties agreed that "all military units and armed groups on the front lines shall return to their camps," while "all mercenaries and foreign fighters" must leave within three months. Analysts have warned that further measures are needed to prevent spoilers undermining the deal in a country wracked by conflict for nearly a decade, since the overthrow and killing of dictator Muammar Gaddafi in a Nato-backed uprising in 2011.

Trump: Sudan to join UAE, Bahrain in recognizing Israel

President Donald Trump announced Friday that Sudan will start to normalize ties with Israel, making it the third Arab state to do so as part of U.S.-brokered deals in the run-up to Election Day. The attacks include the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania by the al-Qaida network while its leader, Osama bin Laden, was living in Sudan. In exchange, Trump notified Congress on Friday of his intent to remove Sudan from the U.S. list of state sponsors of terrorism.

Battleground postal delays persist with mail voting underway

U.S. Postal Service records show delivery delays have persisted across the country as millions of Americans are voting by mail, raising the possibility of ballots being rejected because they arrive too late. Postal data through Oct. 9, released through a federal court order, show nearly all the agency's delivery regions missing its target of having at least 95% of first-class mail arrive within five days. Parts of the presidential battleground states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Ohio fell short of delivery goals by wide margins as the agency struggles to regain its footing after a tumultuous summer.

Man gets 20 years for buying guns used in 2015 terror attack

The man who bought two rifles that husband-and-wife assailants used to kill 14 people in a Southern California terror attack nearly five years ago was sentenced Friday to 20 years in prison. Enrique Marquez Jr. supplied the weapons that Syed Rizwan Farook and Farook’s wife, Tashfeen Malik, used on Dec. 2, 2015, to open fire on a meeting and holiday gathering of San Bernardino County employees who worked with Farook. Minutes later, a post on a Facebook page associated with Malik pledged allegiance to the leader of the Islamic State terror group.

Nebraska, Maine could play pivotal role in presidential race

Nebraska will never be mistaken for a swing state given that it hasn’t supported a Democratic presidential candidate since 1964, but if the race is close this fall, the state could have a key role in choosing the next president. It’s all thanks to a law approved decades ago that was intended to attract presidential candidates to a state they usually ignore because it’s so reliably conservative. While the statewide vote will clearly go to President Donald Trump, former Vice President Joe Biden has a good chance of winning in the state’s 2nd Congressional District, meaning one of Nebraska’s five Electoral College votes could go to the Democrat.

Trump, Biden scrap on oil, virus with just over a week to go

President Donald Trump and his allies fought for support in pivotal battleground states on Friday after a debate performance that gave new hope to anxious Republicans. Democrat Joe Biden, campaigning close to home, tried to clean up a debate misstep while urging voters to stay focused on the president's inability to control the worsening pandemic. The coronavirus debate has pushed Trump onto the defensive for much of the fall, but for the moment it is Biden's team that has been forced to explain itself.

US wades in cautiously to Armenia-Azerbaijan peace effort

The Trump administration waded cautiously Friday into international efforts to halt fighting between Armenia and Azerbaijan, which are engaged in their worst conflict in more than 25 years. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo met separately in Washington with the foreign ministers of both countries in a bid to promote a cease-fire in hostilities over the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh. The State Department said Pompeo had emphasized to Armenian Foreign Minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan and Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov the need “to end the violence and protect civilians.”

Final count gives leftist big victory in Bolivia election

A final official vote count released Friday gave leftist Luis Arce a smashing victory in Bolivia's presidential election, a vindication for the Movement Toward Socialism party of ousted President Evo Morales, who was barred from running. The Supreme Electoral Tribunal said Arce won 55% of the votes against six rivals on the ballot, easily avoiding the need for a runoff. The runnerup was centrist former President Carlos Mesa with just under 29%.

Croatia accused of brutality, sexual abuse against migrants

SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) — Danish aid workers stationed in the Balkans say dozens of migrants have alleged they were brutalized by Croatian law-enforcement officers when they tried to cross into the European Union nation, before being summarily expelled back to Bosnia. Nicola Bay, the head of the Danish Refugee Council in Bosnia, told The Associated Press Friday that 149 migrants of varying nationalities, independently interviewed by his staff in the country over the past 10 days, reported being exposed to “extremely abusive” treatment by Croatian police. The testimonies include allegations of brutal and prolonged beatings, of people being stripped naked and being forced to lie like logs stacked on top of each other, Bay said, adding: “In two cases, we have reports of severe sexual abuse.”

Trump, Biden lawyer up, brace for White House legal battle

President Donald Trump's and Democratic rival Joe Biden's campaigns are assembling armies of powerful lawyers for the possibility that the race for the White House is decided not at the ballot box but in court. Attorneys for the Republicans and the Democrats are already clashing in courts across the U.S. over mailed-in ballot deadlines and other issues brought on by the coronavirus pandemic. “We’ve been preparing for this for well over a year," Republican National Committee Chief Counsel Justin Riemer told The Associated Press.

Germany was hailed for its handling of the pandemic. With cases surging, it's changing tack.

A few months can make a world of difference during a pandemic. After being lauded for its response to Covid-19 after Chancellor Angela Merkel’s government flattened the curve this spring, Germany is now grappling with more than 10,000 daily coronavirus infections, the most it has seen since the outbreak started, and admissions to hospital intensive care units have doubled in the last two weeks. In stark contrast to strict contact bans in the spring, it was an appeal to voluntarily limit social interactions.

In hard-hit Peru, worry mounts over both COVID-19 and dengue

Two of Lidia Choque’s close family members had already gotten sick with the new coronavirus when the mosquitos arrived. When she went to a hospital after coming down with a fever and body aches, doctors delivered a double diagnosis: COVID-19 and dengue. As Peru grapples with one the world’s worst SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks, another virus is starting to raise alarm: dengue.

US sanctions 2 senior members of Lebanon's Hezbollah

The U.S. Treasury has sanctioned two high-ranking Hezbollah officials, including a former military commander in the country's south. The sanctioned officials are Nabil Qaouk and Hassan al-Baghdadi, both members of Hezbollah's Central Council. The Council is responsible for electing members of the group's top decision-making body, the Shura Council.

Confederate monument removed from Alabama courthouse

A 115-year-old Confederate monument that was the subject of protests in Alabama this year was removed from outside a county courthouse early Friday.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 23, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NexTech AR Solutions (NexTech) (OTCQB: NEXCF) (CSE: NTAR) (FSE: N29), an emerging leader in augmented reality for eCommerce, AR learning applications, AR-enhanced video conferencing and virtual events, is pleased to announce that The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has chosen InfernoAR for its “High-Level Futures Literacy Summit” which will be held from December 8-12, 2020. Riel Miller, Head of Futures Literacy at UNESCO, Paris, explained: “When the decision was made to hold a High-Level Futures Literacy Summit in December 2019, we thought it would be a conventional, face-to-face event in Paris at UNESCO Headquarters. Then the pandemic shock opened up an entirely new set of possibilities and we started to look for a digital platform that could accommodate a major event with participation from around the world. We also decided to push the envelope on the ‘user-experience’. We thought what better moment to be innovative, to not just treat the virtual event as if it were a substitute for physical presence. We chose NexTech’s InfernoAR because it has the flexibility and scalability needed to accommodate many different dimensions of our High-Level Futures Literacy Summit, including interactive booths from around the world, multiple broadcast stages, and participant interaction.”The “High-Level Futures Literacy Summit” is an innovative five-day event, open to the public, that will leverage the power of virtual gatherings to showcase Futures Literacy activities from around the world.

Summit participants will be able to interact with specially trained guides and booth hosts to gain a better understanding of Futures Literacy and why it is an essential competency for the 21st Century.Futures Literacy is a universally accessible skill that builds on the innate human capacity to ‘use-the-future’ and offers a clear, field tested solution to addressing ‘poverty-of-the-imagination’. The Summit will explore the impact Futures Literacy has on all aspects of life, from dealing with COVID-19 to breaking the reproduction of oppression.Evan Gappelberg, CEO of NexTech comments, “We are grateful and thrilled to be working with UNESCO, an important and positive mission-oriented global organization.

US imposes sanctions on Iran over 'brazen' attempt to interfere in election

The US government has imposed fresh sanctions on Iranian military commanders and media outlets in response to a “brazen” attempt to interfere with November’s presidential election. On Thursday night, Washington announced it was placing sanctions on the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Iran’s elite Quds force, the Bayan Rasaneh Gostar Institute and three news outlets. It comes after US officials accused Iran and Russia of attempting to meddle in the election by spreading misinformation online and gaining access to voter registration data. In a statement, the US Treasury said the Iranian groups were trying to “sow discord among the voting populace by spreading disinformation online and executing malign influence operations aimed at misleading US voters.” The Bayan Rasaneh Gostar Institute is believed to be taking the lead in the misinformation campaign, which sent intimidating emails to US voters ordering them to vote for Donald Trump and his Republican party. The message senders posed as members of the Proud Boys, a far-Right US militia group which supports many of Mr Trump’s more divisive policies. Mr Trump was criticised for giving an ambiguous response when asked to condemn the Proud Boys during a recent televised debate, saying: “Proud Boys, stand back and stand by.”
