Putin views launch of new submarine to carry nuclear drones

Russian President Vladimir Putin has watched the launch of a new submarine intended to carry prospective underwater nuclear drones — a doomsday weapon capable of causing a devastating tsunami.

During Tuesday's visit to a military shipyard in St. Petersburg, Putin viewed the departure of the Belgorod nuclear submarine at the Sevmash plant in Severodvinsk in northwestern Russia via a teleconference.

The navy said the submarine designed to carry Poseidon drones is set to enter service next year.

Poseidon can target coastal areas with a heavy nuclear weapon, causing a devastating tsunami wave. Putin has said its tests have been successful.

He first mentioned the nuclear-powered drone among an array of other new weapons in a state-of-the nation address last year, saying they would render U.S. missile defense systems useless.

UK police say 1,065 climate protesters arrested in last week

British police say more than 1,000 people have been arrested since mass climate change protests began in London one week ago.

Police said Monday the arrest total stands at 1,065 since Extinction Rebellion set out to paralyze parts of central London to emphasize the need for sharp reductions in carbon use. Only 53 of those people have been formally charged with criminal offenses.

Police say Waterloo Bridge was reopened to vehicles overnight, having been occupied by the demonstrators since last Monday.

Officials say protest sites at Oxford Street and Parliament Square had been cleared the day before.

The non-violent protest group is seeking negotiations with the government on its demand to make slowing climate change a top priority.

Insanity defense set for man who dropped daughter off bridge

A Florida father accused of killing his 5-year-old daughter by dropping her off a bridge is going on trial with his attorneys expected to say he was insane.

John Jonchuck's first-degree murder trial begins Monday in St. Petersburg for the 2015 death of his daughter, Phoebe.

His attorneys admit their 29-year-old client dropped the girl into Tampa Bay, but say he was insane.

Jonchuck had a history of hospitalizations. Hours before the girl's death, his divorce lawyer called a state hotline, saying he was having a mental breakdown and she feared for Phoebe's safety. The hotline operator never reported her concerns to investigators.

If convicted, Jonchuck will receive a life sentence. If acquitted by reason of insanity, he will likely be hospitalized the rest of his life.

Parents Blame School Cell Tower for Child Cancer Cases, As Radiation Expert Warns ‘Absolutely Dangerous’

A radiation expert has warned a cell phone tower near an elementary school in California may be responsible for at least four students developing cancer.

EMF safety specialist Eric Windheim recently told CBS Sacramento radiation emitted from the cell tower located near Weston elementary in Ripon, in addition to wireless frequencies, were likely behind the child cancer cases.

“I wouldn’t send my kids there at all, it absolutely is dangerous,” Windheim told CBS. “Children are still developing and their cells are still being divided. It’s the worst possible time in their life to be exposed.”

Windheim stressed wireless frequencies transmitted by the tower are powerful enough to reach up to 30 miles.

The electromagnetic radiation specialist’s analysis comes as parents are demanding the removal of the tower located on school property after suspecting it is behind multiple cancer cases, which have affected four students and three teachers.

“We had a doctor tell us that it’s 100 percent environmental, the kind of tumor that he has,” said parent Monica Ferrulli, whose son Mason relapsed last year after developing cancer in 2016.

Another parent, Joe Prime, described his son Kyle’s development of kidney cancer in 2016 as “one of the hardest things I’ve been through.”

“It just seems like coincidence is no longer a reason for all this illness,” Prime told CBS.

Parent Richard Rex described finding his 11-year-old son’s cancer after noticing a bump on his abdomen, which doctors discovered was a tumor that had wrapped around his liver.

“It is a terrible thing,” Rex said. “How many children with cancer will it take?”

The parents hired Windheim after tests conducted by the school concluded there was no danger from the cell tower and that radiation emitted was well below national standards.

But at a Ripon Unified School District (RUSD) meeting Monday, attended by over 200 parents, Ferrulli countered that the district cited an old American Cancer Society study, and claimed RUSD was in “denial” over the new cases.

While there are several towers located throughout the neighborhood, only one particular tower near the school has been deemed problematic.

Parents claim the district gets a $2,000 kickback per month to have the tower located at the school, however an RUSD statement notes they only receive a “negligible amount of revenue,” according to The Modesto Bee.

Additionally RUSD said they have no “out clause” in their 25-year lease agreement with tower owner Sprint, and that both parties must agree to relocate the tower before it can happen.

A statement from Sprint representative Adrienne Norton appeared to indicate the company was willing to negotiate a tower relocation.

“When it comes to the deployment of network infrastructure, we always strive to achieve a win/win process with local municipalities and residents,” an email from Norton said, according to the Bee. “We have been working with the community in Ripon to address their concerns.”

Meanwhile, parents have vowed to keep fighting to have the tower removed or relocated.

“Kids shouldn’t be guinea pigs and we shouldn’t be taking chances with the children’s lives,” Prime says.

“It’s a real disappointment that it’s taking moms of sick children and dads of sick children to come out and say something needs to be done.”

Fugitive Indian diamond tycoon’s art collection worth millions to be auctioned

Sixty-eight pieces of art owned by Indian diamond tycoon Nirav Modi, whom state authorities accuse of being involved in a $1.8 billion bank fraud, will be auctioned Tuesday.

Modi, 48, who is one of India’s richest men and believed to be worth $1.75 billion, was arrested in London last Tuesday and ordered to be held without bail. Indian authorities have sought Modi's arrest since February 2018, when they alleged companies he controlled defrauded the state-owned Punjab National Bank by using fake financial documents to get loans to buy and import jewels.

Police in India later raided the homes and offices of Modi and business partner Mehul Choksi, seizing nearly $800 million in jewels and gold. The men are thought to have left India before the alleged fraud was discovered.

His collection, which includes rare oil paintings and works by Raja Ravi Varma and V.S. Gaitonde, will be auctioned. A piece from his collection, “Untitled,” was sold at an auction in Mumbai in 2015 for $4.4 million, the BBC reported. Auctioneers said they believed a Varma painting could be auctioned for up to $2.5 million. Officials said the art is expected to “fetch anywhere between $4.4 million to $7.3 million,” Reuters reported.

“We believe that the collection’s intrinsic value will garner a positive response from collectors,” Dinesh Vazirani, the Saffronart’s chief executive told Reuters.

Denmark charges 14 people – including 13-year-old – who shared video of backpacker’s Morocco beheading

Danish authorities have charged 14 people - including a 13-year-old - with sharing a video on social media showing a Scandinavian backpacker’s beheading in Morocco by ISIS fanatics.

The Dec. 17 murder of Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, 24, of Denmark, and Maren Ueland, 28, of Norway, sparked worldwide outrage. The four main suspects confessed to being inspired by ISIS.

The 14 suspects shared the video on Facebook Messenger and other social media in violation of Demark’s criminal code, police said in a statement announcing the charges.

“It is not only punishable, it is also offensive to both victims and relatives, and it can be a violent and deeply unpleasant experience for both children, young people and adults to watch it,” police said.

Six of the accused were between the ages of 13 and 18, police said.

Swede gets 4.5 years for last year's royal jewels heist

A 22-year-old Swede has been sentenced to four and a half years in prison after he was convicted of stealing royal funeral artifacts said to be worth 65 million kronor ($7 million) from a Swedish cathedral last year.

The Eskiltuna District Court said Friday that Johan Nicklas Backstrom stole two crowns and an orb used at the funerals of King Karl IX and Queen Kristina.

On the closing day of his trial last week, Backstrom confessed to stealing the items from the Strangnas Cathedral, west of the capital, on July 31.

His confession came after prosecutors said his DNA was found on the jewels that were discovered Feb. 5 in a garbage bin north of Stockholm. Backstrom said he cut himself when smashing the glass during the theft.

LONDON (Reuters) – The leader of Britain’s opposition Labour Party, Jeremy Corbyn, said on Friday he had turned down an invitation to a state dinner which will be part of U.S. President Donald Trump’s visit to Britain in June.

“Theresa May should not be rolling out the red carpet for a state visit to honor a president who rips up vital international treaties, backs climate change denial and uses racist and misogynist rhetoric,” Corbyn said in a statement.

He said maintaining the relationship with the United States did not require “the pomp and ceremony of a state visit” and he said he would welcome a meeting with Trump “to discuss all matters of interest.”

A bedridden 67-year-old woman and more than a dozen animals were rescued Thursday after a welfare check found that they were living in a home filled with trash, urine, and feces, Florida police said.

Pinellas County sheriff’s deputies said when they arrived at the home in Dunedin around 7:20 p.m. Thursday, they could smell the odor of rotting trash and animal feces as they walked up to the driveway.

“Inside the residence, the odor of feces and urine was so overwhelming that deputies had to don masks,” the sheriff’s department said in a statement.

Walking throughout the residence, the deputies found 10 emaciated dogs and puppies living in bins filled with their own feces, five large Macaw birds flying freely, rats, bugs and overall squalor.

Deputies said due to the large amounts of trash in the home, they had to clear a path to reach the victim’s bedroom.

“None of the home’s toilets were working and all were found to be overflowing with feces,” deputies said. “The only working sink was located on the opposite end of the house from the victim’s bedroom.”

They said there was no food or water for the victim or the animals.

Libyan Minister of Economy Ali Abdulaziz Issawi speaks during an interview with Reuters in Tripoli

April 26, 2019

By Ulf Laessing

TRIPOLI (Reuters) – Libya’s U.N.-recognized government has budgeted up to 2 billion dinars ($1.43 billion) to cover costs of a three-week-old war for control of the capital, such as treatment for the wounded, to be funded without new borrowing, the economy minister said.

Ali Abdulaziz Issawi suggested the government hoped for business to continue more or less as usual despite the assault on Tripoli, in the country’s northwest, by forces tied to a parallel administration based in the eastern city of Benghazi.

Once Africa’s third largest producer of oil, Libya has been riven by factional conflict since the fall of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, with the country now broadly split between eastern-based forces under Khalifa Haftar and the U.N.-backed government in Tripoli, in the west, under Prime Minister Fayez al-Serraj.

Still, with Haftar’s Libyan National Army forces unable so far to pierce defenses in Tripoli’s southern suburbs, normal life and business activities continue in much of the capital and western coastal towns.

Issawi, in an interview with Reuters in his Tripoli office, also said Libya’s commercial ports and wheat imports were still functioning normally, although some roads have been blocked.

He said the Serraj government estimates it will spend up to 2 billion dinars extra on medical treatment for wounded, aid for displaced people and other “emergency” war costs.

He said this was not military spending but analysts believe that the sum will also cover expenditures such as pay for allied armed groups or food for fighters.

“We could actually spend less,” he added, in comments that gave the first insight into the economic impact of the fighting.

Issawi said the Tripoli government, which controls little territory beyond the greater capital region, would not incur new debt to fund the war costs, sticking to a plan to post a 2019 budget without a deficit.

Tripoli derives revenue largely from oil and natural gas production, interest-free loans from local banks to the central bank, and a 183 percent surcharge on foreign exchange transactions conducted at official rates.

But with centralized tax collection greatly diminished, public debt has piled up – to 68 billion dinars in the west, including unpaid state obligations such as social insurance.

Some analysts expect Serraj’s government will be forced to raise new debt if the war for control of Tripoli drags on.

With much of Libya dominated by armed factions that also act as security forces, the public wage bill for both the western and eastern administrations has soared as fighters have been made public employees in efforts to buy their loyalty.

The east has sold bonds worth 35 billion dinars outside the official financial system as the Tripoli central bank does not fund the parallel government apart from some wages.

Despite its limited reach, the Tripoli government still runs an annual budget of around 46.8 billion dinars, mainly for public salaries and fuel subsidies.

“This year we cannot finance via debt…we will not borrow (by agreement with the central bank),” Issawi said.

According to International Monetary Fund data, Libya’s central government debt-to-GDP ratio is 143 percent, making it one of the most heavily indebted in the world on that measure.

Issawi declined to say what parts of the budget would be trimmed to support the extra outlay for war costs.

However, with some 70 percent of the budget allocated to public wages, fuel subsidies and other welfare benefits, a portion devoted to infrastructure is most likely to be axed.

Widespread lawlessness has meant there have been no major infrastructural projects since 2011, when a NATO-backed uprising overthrew dictator Muammar Gaddafi, leaving schools, hospitals and roads in acute need of restoration.

FOREX SURCHARGE

Issawi said the government planned to raise as much as 30 billion dinars by the end of 2019 from hard currency deals after imposing in September a 183 percent surcharge on commercial and private transactions done on the official rate of 1.4 to the U.S. dollar. That fee has effectively devalued the official rate to 3.9, much closer to the black market equivalent.

Some 17 billion dinars have been raised since then, with hard currency allocated for import credit letters now issued without delays, Issawi said. The forex fee has helped the government forecast a budget in the black for 2019.

Despite the narrowing spread between the two rates, the black market continues to thrive. Dozens of traders remained at their favorite spot behind the central bank headquarters in Tripoli when Reuters reporters visited it last week.

But traders said it could take time for the Serraj government to register the extra forex receipts as official banking channels were taking up to six months to approve import financing, keeping the black market in play for dealers.

Issawi said authorities planned to lower the forex fee from 183 percent, without saying when. The black market rate has dropped from 6 to around 4.1 since September but it has hardly moved of late as demand for black market cash remains high.

The Tripoli government has stopped subsidizing food and bread, which used to be cheaper than drinking water in Libya. Wheat imports are now being arranged by private traders and there are surplus stocks of flour at the moment, Issawi said.
