The United Nations Has Condemned A Deadly Air Strike On A Yemeni Prison

The United Nations has criticized a Yemeni detention center air strike that killed more than 70 people.

On Friday, a facility in Saada, a stronghold of the Houthi rebel organization in northwestern Yemen, was attacked.

The "escalation must cease," UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said in a statement.

The Saudi-led coalition fighting Houthi rebels in Yemen denied carrying out the air strike in a statement on Saturday.

The coalition further claimed that the site was not on a UN-approved list of targets to avoid, and that the Red Cross had not notified it.

Since 2015, Saudi-led coalition forces have been fighting Houthi insurgents. As a direct result of the war, tens of thousands of civilians have been killed or injured, including over 10,000 children.

Millions have been displaced, and a large portion of the population is on the verge of starvation.

Rescue workers were still hauling dead out of the rubble hours after the air hit, and prospects of finding survivors are diminishing, according to BBC Middle East correspondent Anna Foster.

The exact number of those who died is unknown. At least 70 people have been killed, according to Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), with the figure anticipated to grow.

Images from the area showed men removing debris with their hands and wounded at a local hospital, according to Houthi-run media. According to MSF, one hospital has received almost 200 casualties.

"Many dead are still at the scene of the air strike, and many people are missing," MSF leader in Yemen Ahmed Mahat told the AFP news agency. "It's impossible to estimate how many individuals have died." It appears to be a heinous act of brutality.

De-escalation was also advocated for by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken.

In A Furious Address, Biden Calls For A Reform Of US Election Laws.

Angel
Image
As part of his effort to revamp the country's election procedures, US President Joe Biden has called for a historic change to Senate rules. He stated he backed adjustments that would allow his voting reforms to pass without the cooperation of opposition Republicans in an impassioned speech. His initiatives are being hampered by reservations from two senators in his own party, and no Republicans have backed them. In order to approve most bills in the Senate, a 60 percent majority is required. And, with the upper body of Congress split 50-50 between the two parties, Mr Biden's comprehensive election legislation is nearly certain to fail unless that provision is changed. Analysts think such a shift is unlikely since it would require the approval of every Democrat in the Senate, as well as the vice president's tie-breaking vote. Last year, the lower house, the House of Representatives, enacted the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. The former ...

Boris Johnson arrives in the United Arab Emirates ahead of negotiations on energy supplies. Boris Johnson will meet with Saudi Arabian leaders later this week in an attempt to form a "international coalition" against Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The Prime Minister will speak about securing energy supplies from the region, stating that the world must "wean itself off" Russian oil and gas. However, because of the Saudi government's human rights record, Mr Johnson was chastised for travelling on the trip. They carried out a one-day mass execution of 81 men on Saturday. A number of MPs have asked the Prime Minister to postpone his visit. Mr Johnson, on the other hand, argued that if the West wanted to "avoid being blackmailed" by Russian President Vladimir Putin, it needed to shift away from Russia's hydrocarbons and investigate alternative options. Ed Miliband, the shadow climate and net zero secretary, said the PM's "thought it necessar...

The ticket stated Sarah Walton's vehicle had been in the town's Asda car park for 14 hours Asda bosses have been forced to apologize to a customer who was wrongly sent a £70 parking fine after visiting a store twice in one day. The ticket stated Sarah Walton's car was in the Grimsby supermarket car park for 14 hours. In reality the vehicle was driven to the store twice that day - once briefly in the morning, and then again later at night. Ms Walton was shocked when she got the fine, branding it is 'incomprehensible'. She told the Grimsby Telegraph : "Even if you worked there you wouldn't stay 14 hours." The alleged parking infringement took place on Thursday, December 7, when her husband had been driving the car, which is in her name. He says that he went to the store in the morning just after 7am on his way to work to use the cash machine, driving in one end of car park and leaving through another. Later that day he took...

As a result of the conflict in Ukraine, a top food sector executive has warned that prices will rise. Food prices could climb by up to 15% this year, according to Ronald Kers, CEO of food company 2 Sisters. He also mentioned that the company's pricing for chicken from the farm has increased. Russia and Ukraine are two of the world's largest wheat producers, and the conflict is expected to have an impact on shipments. Furthermore, the price of gas has risen, which is used to heat greenhouses and produce fertilizer, both of which are critical to food production. According to some experts, war in the region is expected to worsen price increases that have already been occurring during what has been dubbed as a cost-of-living crisis. In the United Kingdom, 2 Sisters employs over 14,000 people and specializes in chicken and chilled meals. Its CEO claimed that the company had already been forced to pay 50 percent extra for poultry from farms. "Fundamentally, it implies as a count...

The Biden Mask Rule For Flights And Railways Has Been Overturned By A US Judge

Angel

The Biden administration's mask mandate for aircraft and other kinds of public transportation has been declared unconstitutional by a federal judge in Florida. The national public health agency had overstepped its legal authority in issuing the rule, according to US District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle. The US transit authority announced that mask wearing would no longer be enforced. The obligation was recently extended by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) until May 3rd. Judge Mizelle is based in Florida, but federal judges have the power to reject measures that affect the entire country. Her Monday directive effectively repeals the requirement for masks in all airports, trains, taxis, and transit hubs. The decision was "disappointing," according to White House press secretary Jen Psaki, who also pointed out that the CDC still advises travelers to cover their mouths and noses. A request for comment on Monday's verdict was not immediately return...

The Residence Of Prince Andrew's Accuser In The United States Is At Stake In Her Sex Abuse Case Against Him.

Angel

In a court filing, Virginia Giuffre's legal team called Prince Andrew's lawyers' decision to halt her lawsuit a "transparent attempt to postpone discovery into his own records and evidence." The Queen's second son has been accused of sexual assault, which he denies. Lawyers for the woman who has accused Prince Andrew of sexual assault have dismissed allegations that her lawsuit against him cannot proceed because she is not a US citizen. The Duke of York's lawyers demanded last week that the legal lawsuit against him in Manhattan be postponed or dismissed since his accuser, Virginia Giuffre, lives in Australia. She is claimed to have spent all but two of the previous 19 years there. In a court statement on Thursday, Ms Giuffre's team described Andrew's lawyers' decision to halt the lawsuit as a "transparent attempt to postpone discovery into his own records and evidence." Ms Giuffre, formerly Virginia Roberts, has accused Andrew of for...

Ways to relief stress

Angel

Stress is the body's reaction to any change that requires an adjustment or response. The body reacts to these changes with physical, mental, and emotional responses. Stress is a normal part of life. You can experience stress from your environment, your body, and your thoughts. Even positive life changes such as a promotion, a mortgage, or the birth of a child produce stress. It triggers your fight-or-flight response in order to fight the stress or  run away from it. Typically, after the response occurs, your body should relax. Too much constant stress can have negative effects on your long-term health.  The human body is designed to experience stress and react to it. Stress can be positive, keeping us alert, motivated, and ready to avoid danger. Stress becomes negative when a person faces continuous challenges without relief or relaxation between stressors. As a result, the person becomes overworked, and stress-related tension builds. The body's auto...
