More than 100 people killed as passenger plane crashes in Cuba

Posted: 18 May 2018 06:26 PM PDT

More than 100 people killed as passenger plane crashes in CubaAn ageing airliner carrying 110 people crashed shortly after take off from Havana airport in Cuba on Friday, leaving just three survivors in the country's worst aviation disaster in three decades. The 39-year-old Boeing 737 had taken off on an internal flight when it went down into a cassava field not far from the end of the runway just after midday,  bursting into flames and leaving huge plumes of black smoke. A local resident told Granma, the Cuban state newspaper, that the plane crashed after it attempted to return to the airport – making a turn and clipping electricity cables, then plummeting to the ground. Miguel Diaz-Canel, the Cuban president, visited the scene immediately and said: "There is a high number of people who appear to have died. "Things have been organised, the fire has been put out, and the remains are being identified." Granma reported there was a baby aged under two on board, plus four children.

The three survivors were taken to the Calixto Garcia hospital, in the Vedado district of Havana. Families of those on board were asked to bring photos of their loved ones to the scene, to assist with identification. The Boeing 737 had just left the Jose Marti airport en route to the town of Holguin – a flight of around an hour and a half. The plane crashed near a school and lay in a farm field, heavily damaged and burnt, with firefighters spraying water on its smouldering remains. Miguel Diaz-Canel, visiting the crash site Credit: AFP What appeared to be one of the wings of the plane was wedged among scorched tree trunks, but the main fuselage appeared to have been entirely destroyed. Firefighters and rescue workers combed through the wreckage, but there seemed little chance of finding survivors. The plane was believed to be a Cubana airlines flight. Mercedes Vazquez, director of air traffic, told Prensa Latina that the plane was owned by Damojh - a Mexican company which operates under the name Global. At a glance | Cuba  A Global employee told AP that the plane was theirs. Cuban state television had earlier claimed that the plane was owned by Blue Panorama, an Italian firm, but they denied involvement. The Cuban state carrier had suspended its own domestic flights in March owing to a shortage of aircraft, according to security site Garda World. Cubana has also taken many of its aging planes out of service in recent months due to mechanical problems. The airline is notorious among Cubans for its frequent delays and cancellations, which Cubana blames on a lack of parts and airplanes due to the US trade embargo on the island. Friday's crash was Cuba's third major fatal accident since 2010. A survivor is loaded into an ambulance Credit: AFP Last year, a Cuban military plane crashed into a hillside in the western province of Artemisa, killing eight troops on board. In November 2010, an AeroCaribbean flight from Santiago to Havana went down in bad weather as it flew over central Cuba, killing all 68 people, including 28 foreigners, in what was Cuba's worst air disaster in more than two decades. The last Cubana accident appears to have been on Sept. 4, 1989, when a chartered Cubana plane flying from Havana to Milan, Italy, went down shortly after takeoff, killing all 126 people on board, as well as at least two dozen on the ground. Cubana's director general, Capt. Hermes Hernandez Dumas, told state media last month that Cubana's domestic flights had carried 11,700 more passengers than planned between January and April 2018. It said that 64 per cent of flights had taken off on time, up from 59 per cent the previous year. "Among the difficulties created by the US trade embargo is our inability to acquire latest-generation aircraft with technology capable of guaranteeing the stability of aerial operations," he said. "Another factor is obtaining part for Cubana's aircraft."

Young father imprisoned in Iran: An American dream turned nightmareXiyue Wang, a husband, father and Princeton University doctoral student, has been imprisoned in Iran since August 2016 on charges of espionage. He was invited to study at a foreign language institute in Tehran and was granted permission by Iran's Foreign Ministry to further his dissertation research. But President Trump's decision to withdraw the U.S. from the Iran nuclear agreement has complicated his case, along with the cases of four other Americans detained in Iran. Meanwhile back home in Princeton, N.J., his wife, Hua Qu, has been juggling her career and taking care of their 5-year-old son, all while trying to focus on her husband's case, appealing to President Trump for his release. Qu sat down with Yahoo News' Stephanie Sy to talk about her imprisoned husband and what it's like raising a son on her own.

Cleric Sadr wins Iraq poll but forming government far off

Posted: 19 May 2018 03:42 AM PDT

Cleric Sadr wins Iraq poll but forming government far offFinal results from Iraq's election confirmed Saturday that an alliance spearheaded by populist cleric Moqtada Sadr has triumphed, but the fiery preacher faces a huge task to form a governing coalition. Sadr's Marching Towards Reform bloc won 54 of the 329 seats in parliament in a major upset at a May 12 vote that saw a record level of abstentions as Iraqis turned their back on a widely reviled elite. The nationalist -- whose Shiite militia battled US troops after the 2003 invasion -- faces a deeply fragmented political landscape and opposition from key player Iran after he called for foreign influence in Iraq to be cut.

Iran can resume 20 percent enrichment if EU fails to retain nuclear dealTEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran could resume its 20 percent uranium enrichment if the European signatories of the 2015 nuclear deal failed to keep it alive following Washington's withdrawal, the head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organisation said on Saturday. "If the other side keeps itself committed to its promises we also will be keeping ourselves to our promises... Our policy is wait and see now ... for just the few weeks time ... There are all kind of possibilities, we can ... start the 20 enrichment," Ali Akbar Salehi told reporters. (Writing by Parisa Hafezi, Editing by William Maclean)

US embassy opening in Jerusalem, killings and outrageThe opening of the US embassy in Jerusalem, after Washington recognised the disputed city as Israel's capital, sparked deadly demonstrations in Gaza in which Israeli forces killed dozens of Palestinians. Hours before the embassy's controversial opening Monday, tens of thousands of protesters gather at the Gaza-Israel border, defying Israeli warnings to keep away. The border had been a flashpoint for deadly demonstrations that began on March 30, with some protesters attempting to breach the fence as part of demands that Palestinian refugees be allowed to return to their homes now inside Israel.

Exclusive: In run-up to Venezuelan vote, more soldiers dissent and desertBy Girish Gupta and Anggy Polanco CARACAS/SAN CRISTOBAL, Venezuela (Reuters) - Arrests for rebellion and desertion are rising sharply in Venezuela's armed forces, a mainstay of President Nicolas Maduro's Socialist government, amid discontent within the ranks at food shortages and dwindling salaries, according to documents and interviews with army personnel. Internal military documents reviewed by Reuters showed that the number of soldiers detained for treason, rebellion and desertion rose to 172 in the first four months of the year, up three-and-a-half times on the same period of 2017. Former military officials said the figures reflected a dramatic increase in the level of dissent within Venezuela's once-proud armed forces.

Police have found 'no evidence' of Meghan Markle's half-sister's alleged car crash with paparazzi

Police have found 'no evidence' of Meghan Markle's half-sister's alleged car crash with paparazzi Florida police have found no evidence of Samantha Markle's alleged car crash after being reportedly chased by paparazzi.  It was claimed Meghan Markle's estranged half-sister, 53, was run off the road and hospitalised by a photographer. Gossip site TMZ relseased a picture from an unknown hospital. Her boyfriend claimed she had a broken ankle and possible knee fracture. However, police in her hometown say there is no record of such an altercation - and that if it did happen, her boyfriend may be charged with hit-and-run. "Even if they hit a stationary property such as a wall under Florida law you are required to report that to law enforcement," Lt. Kim Montes told DailyMail.com.  She continued: "If you didn't that's considered to be a hit and run." Her 60-year-old boyfriend Mark Phillips could face two months in jail for failing to report the incident. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle: The story of their relationship, in pictures Ms Grant's partnersaid their car hit a concrete barrier after attempting to avoid a photographer. He told TMZ the incident happened near a toll booth, where he claimed a photographer veered in front of the couple's vehicle, leading him to swerve. Ms Grant hit the windshield and fell to the floor mat, he said, adding that - as she suffers from MS - she was unable to lift herself up and that her foot was twisted backwards. The officer told the tabloid that the force had spent three hours trawling its database but had not found any record of the crash. "The nearest toll road would be the turnpike so we checked the turnpike, we checked I4, we checked all these other roads," Lt Montes said.  "We checked by her name, we checked by his name and we didn't find any reports. So we don't know if this actually happened.  "We can't find any reports basically from all of central Florida. We can't find a report by name or a scenario that was similar to this."

Saudi Arabia detains women's rights activists weeks before female driving ban comes to an end

Posted: 18 May 2018 07:58 AM PDT

Saudi Arabia detains women's rights activists weeks before female driving ban comes to an endSaudi Arabia has detained several prominent female activists who campaigned for women's right to drive, taking them into custody just weeks before the decades-long driving ban finally comes to an end. Human rights groups said Loujain al-Hathloul, Eman al-Nafjan and Aziza al-Yousef - three of the most prominent voices demanding women be free to drive - were all detained on Thursday. Two male advocates for women's rights were also detained, activists said.  The activists were detained as Saudi Arabia prepares for the driving ban to come to an end on June 24. The policy shift has become a symbol of the modernising drive of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and the Saudi government is eager for positive media coverage of the move.  The detentions appear to be an effort by Saudi authorities to make sure they do not have to share credit for the end of the driving ban with activists who spent years campaigning for it.  They may also be concerned that the women right's campaigners would use the end of the driving to call for further advances in women's freedom - like an end to the male guardianship system that severely limits Saudi women's ability to travel independently.  A woman in a black niqab drives in Saudi Arabia Neither Ms Narfjan nor Ms Hathloul could be reached for comment. Ms Hathloul told The Telegraph earlier this year that shortly before Saudi authorities announced the end of the driving ban in September she was warned not to speak publicly about it. Instead, she Tweeted just the word "Alhamdulillah" in Arabic, or "Praise be to God".  "Shutting up or submitting to these threats is unacceptable to me, it is not an option to stay quiet any more," she said, breaking her silence in January. "We have been quiet for too long." Ms Hathloul had been detained twice before for her activism. She and other Saudi women sometimes filmed themselves driving in defiance of the ban and published the videos online, to the fury of the government.  Ms Hathloul was voted the third-most powerful Arab woman by Forbes in 2015, but was forced to quit her job that same year because of driving restrictions. Her husband, a well-known Saudi comedian who acts as her male guardian, was often out of the country meaning she had to pay for taxis to and from work.  Saudi women tour a car showroom for women on January 11, 2018, in the Saudi Red Sea port city of Jeddah. Credit: AFP "The Uber and Careem applications would take more than 30 per cent of my salary. For instance I would pay 2,000-3,000 riyals (£375-560) a month to get around, while my salary was 6,000 riyals," she said. "At the end of the month I basically had nothing." It was not clear if she or any or any of the other activists had been charged with a crime. Prisoners of Conscience, a human rights group, said that two men - Mohammed al-Rabjah and Ibrahim al-Mdmyegh - had also been arrested.  The driving ban has been in place since 1979 and women's rights activists have been fighting it against for it for decades. In 1990, around 50 women launched the first high profile protest by driving in a convoy around Riyadh. They were eventually stopped by police.  The Saudi government under the leadership of Crown Prince Mohammed has shown itself willing to use detention as a tool against political rivals. Dozens of princes and prominent businessmen were arrested in November and detained at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Riyadh on allegations of corruption.  Most were released only after agreeing to pay large sums as part of a settlement with the authorities.

Grimes is legally changing her name, thanks to Elon Musk

Grimes is legally changing her name, thanks to Elon MuskElon Musk and Grimes are being the world's nerdiest couple, again. SEE ALSO: Of course Elon Musk and Grimes spawned a beautiful new meme Originally born Claire Boucher, Grimes announced on Thursday that she's legally changing her name to just c, which is the measurement for the speed of light in a vacuum. She tweeted a screenshot of the Wikipedia article about it, adding "this will be much better." Grimes also specified the name c will be lowercase and italicized.  i'm legally changing my name from claire to 'c' , as in the speed of light. {☄️ lowercase and italics ��} ___ this will be much better pic.twitter.com/nOG5kNEU9O — Grimes (@Grimezsz) May 17, 2018 Grimes/ c said that she's wanted to change her name "4ever" but her friends already call her c. Musk pointed out that her nickname "actually rox" and that she didn't need to look for another. well he's the one who pointed out that my working nickname (c) actually rox and i don't need to look further (been trying 2 change name 4ever but couldn't find a gud 1, but my friends call me c } — Grimes (@Grimezsz) May 17, 2018 She added that she hasn't liked her given name since she "became sentient" (confirming that Musk is into manic pixie dream robots) and that her speech impediment makes it difficult to say. if u like ^_^ claire has been the bane of my existence since i became sentient... i can barely say it w my speech impediment altho c is technically worse 4 lisp haha , omg nice quiet avatar �� and general font — Grimes (@Grimezsz) May 17, 2018 The tech mogul and indie pop artist made their relationship official at the Met Gala earlier this month after weeks of awkward Twitter flirting. Apparently they got together because of a niche joke that blended artificial intelligence and French baroque art. The couple's debut at the Met Gala — with Grimes dressed as a goth fairy queen and Musk dressed as a standard rich guy — had people wondering if we really are in a simulation. Grimes went from tweeting Elon Musk to being his date at the #MetGala SOMEBODY END THIS SIMULATION pic.twitter.com/MvKm1aZzWL — �� (@moonlightzenty) May 8, 2018 With her name change, coming up with couple names will be a little more challenging. Space C? Elon Mus c? cElon Musk? But don't worry, everyone — professionally speaking, Grimes is staying Grimes. of course, i'm just changing my legal name not the band haha �� — Grimes (@Grimezsz) May 17, 2018 She also announced that she's releasing new music "soon ish" — we're either getting a "super dark heavy ballad about fighting balrog in the center of earth that is a sex metaphor" or a "very not pg13 ethereal shadow of colossus demon nu metal song abt insomnia." Musk, being the supportive AI enthusiast boyfriend that he is, can add a few more jams to his list of favorite Grimes songs. Want more clever culture writing beamed directly to your inbox?
