Bangladesh plane crash: 'I heard an explosion, saw fire'

A teacher in Bangladesh has described the moment he witnessed a jet crash into a school campus in the capital, Dhaka.

Masud Tarik was by the gates of Milestone School when he heard an explosion behind him.

At least 19 people died, including the pilot, when a Bangladeshi air force training jet crashed into the school on Monday.

Some 164 people were injured, with 50 people – including children – taken to hospital with burns.

The armed forces said the F-7 jet experienced a mechanical fault after taking off.

Concertul lui Gergiev, aliatul lui Putin, anulat în Italia

acum 5 oreDistribuieSalveazăAlex KleidermanBBC NewsDistribuieSalveazăReuters

Organizatorii unui festival de muzică din Italia au anulat un concert cu dirijorul rus Valery Gergiev, după zile întregi de critici din partea criticilor de la Kremlin și a activiștilor pentru drepturile omului.

Gergiev, un aliat al președintelui Putin, urma să conducă o orchestră italiană și soliști de la Teatrul Mariinsky din Sankt Petersburg într-un spectacol susținut la un fost palat regal de lângă Napoli la sfârșitul acestei luni.

Bărbatul în vârstă de 72 de ani a fost interzis de pe scenele occidentale de la invazia rusă a Ucrainei din februarie 2022, pe care a refuzat să o condamne.

Ministrul italian al Culturii, Alessandro Giuli, a declarat că anularea de către organizatori a festivalului Un’Estate da RE a fost „de bun simț” și a protejat „valorile lumii libere”.

Prietenul lui Putin, Gergiev, va susține un concert în timp ce Italia încălcă interdicția impusă artiștilor pro-Kremlin

Palatul Regal din Caserta nu a oferit niciun motiv oficial pentru anularea concertului din 27 iulie, care era organizat ca parte a unui program muzical mai amplu.

Ucraina a cerut duminică organizatorilor să anuleze concertul lui Gergiev, numindu-l „purtătorul de cuvânt al lui Putin” care nu ar trebui bineveniți nicăieri „atâta timp cât forțele rusești continuă să comită atrocități”.

Iulia Navalnaya, văduva regretatului lider al opoziției ruse, Alexei Navalnîi, a salutat anularea, descriind-o drept „o veste bună”, într-o postare pe X.

„Niciun artist care susține actuala dictatură din Rusia nu ar trebui binevenit în Europa”, a spus ea.

Urmărește cele mai importante știri

Dar ambasadorul Moscovei în Italia a declarat că decizia a fost o „situație scandaloasă” și face parte dintr-o „politică de „anulare” a evenimentului. „Cultura rusă”.

Gergiev, directorul teatrelor de stat rusești Bolșoi și Mariinski, cânta în mod regulat în principalele locații occidentale înainte de invazia Ucrainei.

Instituții, inclusiv La Scala din Milano, Orchestra Filarmonică din München și Carnegie Hall din New York, au rupt ulterior legăturile cu el.

Reuters

Controversa privind apariția lui Gergiev a apărut săptămâna trecută, când Italia a găzduit șefi de stat din toată Europa pentru a-și reafirma sprijinul pentru Ucraina și a discuta despre cum să reconstruiască țara odată ce războiul se va termina.

Prim-ministrul italian Giorgia Meloni a fost un critic ferm și consecvent al lui Vladimir Putin încă de la început. Însă ministerul ei al culturii a fost unul dintre susținătorii festivalului Un’Estate da RE.

Watch: At the final checkpoint before the 'dangerous' road to Suweida city

Bedouin fighters positioned outside the southern Syrian city of Suweida have told the BBC they will observe a ceasefire with the Druze community there, but have not ruled out resuming hostilities.

The Bedouin fighters have retreated from the city to surrounding villages in the province after a week of deadly sectarian clashes between Druze fighters, Bedouins and government forces, with Israel carrying out air strikes in support of the Druze.

Dozens of government security personnel, all heavily armed, continue to block the Bedouin from re-entering the city of Suweida.

The Bedouin fighters want the release of injured Bedouin people still in the city, who they refer to as hostages. Otherwise, they say, they will force their way past the checkpoint and head back into the city.

UK and 27 other nations condemn Israel over 'inhumane killing' of Gaza civilians seeking aid

1 hour agoShareSaveDavid GrittenBBC NewsReporting fromJerusalemShareSaveReutersThe World Food Programme says Gaza's hunger crisis has "reached new levels of desperation"

The UK and 27 other countries have called for an immediate end to the war in Gaza, where they say the suffering of civilians has "reached new depths".

A joint statement says Israel's aid delivery model is dangerous and condemns what it calls the "drip feeding of aid and the inhumane killing of civilians" seeking food and water.

Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry said more than 100 Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire while waiting for food over the weekend and that 19 others died as a result of malnutrition.

Israel's foreign ministry rejected the countries' statement, saying it was "disconnected from reality and sends the wrong message to Hamas".

The ministry accused the armed group of spreading lies and undermining aid distribution, rather than agreeing to a new ceasefire and hostage release deal.

Israeli tanks advance into Gaza's Deir al-Balah city for first time

Israeli forces kill 67 Palestinians seeking aid in northern Gaza, Hamas-run ministry says

Dozens killed by Israeli gunfire near aid sites in south Gaza, Hamas-run ministry says

There have been many international statements condemning Israel's tactics in Gaza during the past 21 months of its war with Hamas. But this declaration is notable for its candour.

The signatories are the foreign ministers of the UK and 27 other nations, including Australia, Canada, France, Italy, Japan, New Zealand and Switzerland.

The statement begins by declaring that "the war in Gaza must end now".

It then warns: "The suffering of civilians in Gaza has reached new depths. The Israeli government's aid delivery model is dangerous, fuels instability and deprives Gazans of human dignity."

"We condemn the drip feeding of aid and the inhumane killing of civilians, including children, seeking to meet their most basic needs of water and food. It is horrifying that over 800 Palestinians have been killed while seeking aid."

There have been almost daily reports of Palestinians being killed while waiting for food since May, when Israel partially eased an 11-week total blockade on aid deliveries to Gaza and, along with the US, helped to establish a new aid system run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) to bypass the existing one overseen by the UN.

Israel has said the GHF's system, which uses US private security contractors to hand out food parcels from sites inside Israeli military zones, prevents supplies being stolen by Hamas.

But the UN and its partners have refused to co-operate with the system, saying it is unsafe and violates the humanitarian principles of impartiality, neutrality, and independence.

Last Tuesday, the UN human rights office said it had recorded 674 killings in the vicinity of the GHF's aid sites since they began operating eight weeks ago. Another 201 killings had been recorded along routes of UN and other aid convoys, it added.

On Saturday, another 39 people were killed near two GHF sites in Khan Younis and nearby Rafah, according to Gaza's health ministry. The Israeli military said its troops fired warning shots to prevent "suspects" approaching them before the sites opened.

And on Sunday, the ministry said 67 people were killed as they surged toward a convoy of UN aid lorries near a crossing point in northern Gaza. The Israeli military said troops fired warning shots at a crowd "to remove an immediate threat" but disputed the numbers killed.

Following the incident, the World Food Programme warned that Gaza's hunger crisis had "reached new levels of desperation".

"People are dying from lack of humanitarian assistance. Malnutrition is surging with 90,000 women and children in urgent need of treatment," the UN agency said.

Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry said on Monday that 19 people had died as a result of malnutrition since Saturday and warned of potential "mass deaths" in the coming days.

"Hospitals can no longer provide food for patients or staff, many of whom are physically unable to continue working due to extreme hunger," Dr Khalil al-Daqran, a spokesperson for al-Aqsa hospital in Deir al-Balah, told the BBC.

"Hospitals cannot provide a single bottle of milk to children suffering from hunger, because all baby formula has run out from the market," he added.

Residents also reported that markets were closed due to food shortages.

"My children cry from hunger all night. They've had only a small plate of lentils over the past three days. There's no bread. A kilogramme of flour was Mohammad Emad al-Din, a barber and father of two, told the BBC.

ReutersMedics at Nasser hospital in southern Gaza said Alaa al-Najjar's three-month-old baby son, Yehia, died as a result of malnutrition

The statement by the 27 countries also says Israeli proposals to move Gaza's entire 2.1 million into a so-called "humanitarian city" in the southern Rafah area are unacceptable, noting that "permanent forced displacement is a violation of international humanitarian law".

They urge Israel, Hamas and the international community to "bring this terrible conflict to an end, through an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire".

And they warn that they are "prepared to take further action to support an immediate ceasefire and a political pathway to security and peace".

That is seen by many as code for recognising a state of Palestine, something many countries have done but not all, including the UK and France.

Israeli foreign ministry spokesperson Oren Marmorstein rejected the criticism.

"All statements and all claims should be directed at the only party responsible for the lack of a deal for the release of hostages and a ceasefire: Hamas, which started this war and is prolonging it," he said.

"Instead of agreeing to a ceasefire, Hamas is busy running a campaign to spread lies about Israel. At the same time, Hamas is deliberately acting to increase friction and harm to civilians who come to receive humanitarian aid," he added.

The Israeli military said earlier this month that it recognised there had been incidents in which civilians had been harmed while seeking aid and that it was working to minimise "possible friction between the population and the [Israeli] forces as much as possible".

The Israeli military body responsible for co-ordinating aid, Cogat, also said on Monday that Israel "acts in accordance with international law and is leading efforts to facilitate the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza in co-ordination with the international organisations".

A spokesperson for the GHF meanwhile appealed to UN agencies to join its operation while also blaming them for "stopping" work and for failing to deliver supplies across the territory.

Chapin Fay told journalists that he had been to border crossings where he saw aid supplies "rotting" because UN agencies would not deliver them.

The Israeli foreign ministry said on Sunday that 700 lorry loads of aid were waiting to be picked up by the UN from crossings.

The UN has said it struggles to pick up and distribute supplies because of the ongoing hostilities, Israeli restrictions on humanitarian movements, and fuel shortages.

The Israeli military launched a campaign in Gaza in response to the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on 7 October 2023, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken hostage.

At least 59,029 people have been killed in Gaza since then, according to the territory's health ministry.

Tribunalul american a ordonat un nou proces pentru bărbatul condamnat pentru uciderea lui Etan Patz

acum o orăDistribuieSalveazăKayla EpsteinBBC News, New YorkDistribuieSalveazăReutersOficialii au solicitat informații despre Etan Patz în 2012

O curte de apel din SUA a decis că bărbatul condamnat pentru uciderea și dispariția din 1979 a unui băiat de șase ani din New York City ar trebui să fie judecat din nou sau să fie eliberat.

Dispariția lui Etan Patz în drum spre o stație de autobuz școlar din Manhattan a zguduit orașul și a devenit unul dintre cele mai importante cazuri naționale de copii dispăruți din SUA.

Pedro Hernandez, proprietarul unui magazin alimentar, a fost condamnat pentru ucidere în 2017, după ce un prim proces din 2015 s-a încheiat cu un juriu suspendat. El mărturisise că l-a adus pe Patz într-un subsol și l-a atacat.

În apelul său, Hernandez a susținut că juriul a primit instrucțiuni necorespunzătoare care au încălcat precedentul Curții Supreme a SUA și i-au prejudiciat verdictul.

„Concluzionăm că instanța de fond a contrazis legea federală clar stabilită și că această eroare nu a fost inofensivă.” Curtea de Apel a celui de-al Doilea Circuit a scris în decizia sa.

Un purtător de cuvânt al biroului Procurorului Districtual din Manhattan a declarat că acesta revizuiește decizia.

Cazul i-a bântuit pe anchetatori timp de decenii după ce băiatul a dispărut din cartierul SoHo din Manhattan și nu a fost niciodată găsit.

O campanie agresivă pentru persoanele dispărute a prezentat chipul băiatului pe cutii de lapte și postere din întreaga SUA. O anchetă amplă a atras implicarea Biroului Federal de Investigații și a stârnit o nouă conștientizare cu privire la copiii dispăruți.

În 2012, autoritățile l-au interogat pe Hernandez, care le-a spus că l-a ademenit pe Patz într-un subsol cu o băutură sau un suc înainte de a-l strangula pe băiat.

Totuși, curtea de apel a scris în decizia sa că Hernandez „are un istoric documentat de boli mintale și un coeficient de inteligență (IQ) scăzut” și „a mărturisit inițial după aproximativ șapte ore de interogatoriu neavertisment din partea a trei ofițeri de poliție”.

După ce a mărturisit uciderea, poliția i-a citit lui Hernandez drepturile sale Miranda – un avertisment constituțional privind autoincriminarea – și a înregistrat o mărturisire video. A făcut-o din nou pentru un procuror federal.

Procurorii s-au bazat în mare măsură pe mărturisirile video în timpul celui de-al doilea proces al lui Hernandez.

Citește mai multe știri pe top10stiri.ro

Decizia curții de apel de a dispune un nou proces depinde de instrucțiunile pe care juriul din 2017 le-a primit cu privire la aceste mărturisiri în timp ce delibera asupra soartei lui Hernandez.

Într-o notă, jurații i-au cerut judecătorului să explice dacă ar trebui să ignore mărturisirile sale ulterioare dacă ar constata că prima „nu a fost voluntară”.

Judecătorul de stat a răspuns: „Răspunsul este nu”.

Juriul l-a condamnat în cele din urmă pe Hernandez pentru crimă și răpire, dar l-a achitat de acuzația de crimă intenționată.

În apelul său, Hernandez a susținut că această instrucțiune a fost incompatibilă cu precedentul juridic și a prejudiciat în mod nedrept juriul.

Instanțele inferioare i-au respins cererea, dar curtea federală de apel i-a dat în cele din urmă dreptate în decizia de luni.

Avocatul lui Hernandez, Harvey Fishbein, a emis o declarație în care spunea: „Suntem recunoscători că instanța i-a oferit acum lui Pedro șansa de a-și recăpăta viața și fac apel la Biroul Procurorului Districtual din Manhattan să renunțe la aceste acuzații greșite și să își concentreze eforturile acolo unde le este locul: pe găsirea celor cu adevărat responsabili pentru dispariția lui Etan Patz.”
