2018-11-18 07:18
Family and friends of the ARA San Juan submarine crew demanded to see the vessel's recently-discovered hull in Buenos Aires on Saturday, after the country's Defence Minister Oscar Aguad said there were no means of recovering it. «What we want to see are at least the bones of our children to bury them. This is the people's demand,» said the mother of one victims, Julia Chazarreta. Officials confirmed the ARA San Juan submarine was uncovered at a depth of 907m (2,975 feet) below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean a year after its disappearance. The ARA San Juan and its crew of 44 went missing on November 15 2017, shortly after reporting an electrical malfunction. It was 480km (380 miles) off the coast of Argentina, en route from Ushuaia to its base in Mar del Plata.

We're going to be looking at every factor and we're going to get to the bottom of it and I think we can do it fairly quickly.» The 'Camp' wildfire, which started in the north of California on November 8, has caused 71 deaths and destroyed over 10,000 structures.

In the meantime we're doing things to some people that we know for a fact were involved and we're being very tough on a lot of people.» A full report on the killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi will be released early in the coming week, said US President Donald Trump while speaking to reporters in the Malibu area of California on Saturday, after touring the damage caused by wildfires in the state. Commenting on Friday night's reports about the CIA assessment of the murder, Trump noted that it was «premature.» «They haven't assessed anything yet. It's too early,» Trump said. «That was a very premature report but that's possible, we're going to see, we're going to have a report on Tuesday and it'll be very complete,» he added. The US leader also noted that in the meantime Washington is looking into «some people that we know for a fact were involved and we're being very tough on a lot of people.» Trump's remarks follow media reports published on Friday that claim American intelligence agencies have come to the conclusion that journalist Khashoggi's killing was ordered by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Iran: Cancer medication scarce due to re-imposed US sanctions
2018-11-18 16:37
Iranian children being treated for cancer are facing the consequences of a drug shortage due to the recently re-imposed US sanctions, footage filmed at the Mofid children's hospital in Tehran on Sunday reveals. For 38-year-old Maryam Haghverdilo, mother of Arshia who has been undergoing chemotherapy for lymphoma over the past five months, the US-imposed sanctions on banks affect people's ability to purchase items abroad, including medication. «Mr. Trump says that he has not imposed sanctions on drugs, he has rather imposed sanctions on banks, these sanctions mean that we cannot buy medication. It means that we cannot pay European countries for medication to be imported,» she said. «We are worried about the next stage of chemotherapy about whether medication can be found or not,» Haghverdilo added. She went on to say that even though she might be able to travel to find medication, other less fortunate people may not have the same ability. For Maryam, it's the children that are suffering the consequences. «Children are innocent,» Haghverdilo said, and added «there are so many children here who really need these drugs.» The United States reinstated all of the sanctions it had previously lifted as part of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), or Iran nuclear deal, on November 5. The sanctions target Iran's oil, banking and shipping industries and the Trump administration has also promised to institute harsh penalties for any other states that continue to conduct trade with the country.

Serbia: Hundreds protest Kosovo negotiations outside parliament in Belgrade
2018-11-18 22:20
Hundreds of people rallied in front of the National Assembly building in Belgrade on Sunday to protest against government negotiations and deals with Kosovo. Tomislav Racic, a speaker at the rally and former Serbian army officer who served in Kosovo said “Kosovo and Metohija are not for sale. Our friends, comrades, soldiers, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters, families, lost their lives there.” Recent proposals to swap territory between Kosovo and Serbia as a means to settle the ongoing sovereignty dispute have been highly controversial. The proposed swap foresees the Presevo Valley in southern Serbia, populated mostly by ethnic Albanians, joining Kosovo.

2018-11-18 23:25
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that he's assuming the position of Defence Minister, which was left vacant after Avigdor Lieberman’s Wednesday resignation, while speaking from Tel Aviv on Sunday. «We are in one of the most complex security situations and during a period like this, you don't topple a government. During a period like this you don't go to elections. It is irresponsible,» said Netanyahu. «The security of the state is beyond politics and the security of the state is beyond personal considerations and that's why you can see the effort I am making during the last days, I am making every possible effort to prevent unnecessary elections,» he added. Netanyahu has come under heavy criticism for agreeing to a ceasefire with Hamas after two days of intense fighting. Lieberman and his right-wing Yisrael Beitenu party withdrew from the ruling coalition in protest over the Egyptian-brokered ceasefire in Gaza.
