Headline:  Israel: UK Palestine Vote Undermines Peace Prospects

Israel warned Tuesday that a vote by British parliament in favor of recognizing a Palestinian state risked undermining the prospects for peace. “Premature international recognition sends a troubling message to the Palestinian leadership that they can evade the tough choices that both sides have to make, and actually undermines the chances to reach a real peace,” said a statement from the Israeli foreign ministry. Late Monday British MPs voted 274 to 12 for a non-binding motion to “recognize the state of Palestine alongside the state of Israel as a contribution to securing a negotiated two-state solution”. The remainder of the parliament’s 650 MPs abstained. The resolution was welcomed by the Palestinians.

Headline:     French FM: If peace talks prove impossible, we’ll recognize Palestinian state

France’s foreign minister said on Tuesday that Paris should recognize a Palestinian state only if doing so would help achieve peace, not as a symbolic gesture. However, if negotiations between the Palestinians and Israel fail, Paris “would not shirk its responsibilities” but would recognize the Palestinian state, the minister, Laurent Fabius, said in answer to a question in parliament. His remarks came a day after British lawmakers voted to recognize Palestine. Their vote will not alter government policy, but it does carry symbolic value as Palestinians pursue international recognition. “From the moment when we say that there are two states, there will be recognition of a Palestinian state. That goes without saying, it’s logical,” Fabius said. “The only question are the modalities and how to do it in the most efficient way. What we want is not something symbolic, but something that is useful for peace.” Like Britain, France does not classify Palestine as a state. But it says it could extend recognition if it believed doing so would help promote peace between the Palestinians and Israel.

Headline:     Abbas Threatens, Again, to Cut Ties With Israel

Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has once again threatened to cut ties with Israel if his latest unilateral move at the United Nations (UN) fails. Speaking on Monday to reporters in Cairo, on the sidelines of the international donors’ conference on rebuilding Gaza, Abbas declared that his talks with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry did not bear fruit and that the PA intends move forward with its plan to turn to the UN Security Council to set a deadline for Israel to “end the occupation”. “If all efforts fail, we will end relations with Israel and I will tell Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, ‘Come and take over’. However, I will not dismantle the Palestinian Authority and I will submit a request to join all the organizations belonging to the UN,” he declared. The draft resolution that Abbas plans to submit to the Security Council will reportedly call for Israel to “end the occupation” by November of 2016.

Headline:     UN chief visits rocket-battered Israeli south

The UN’s top official on Tuesday toured rocket-battered Israeli villages near Gaza and expressed “shock” after entering a Hamas attack tunnel with IDF commanders. I was shocked by the tunnels used for the infiltration of terrorists,” Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said in a press conference held after the tour of the tunnel. He was accompanied by IDF Maj. Gen. Noam Tivon and other senior officers and officials. “No one needs live under the constant threat and fear of rockets and tunnels digging underground,” said Ban. He also met with residents of Kibbutz Nirim, including the family of four-year-old Daniel Tragerman, who was killed in an August 22 mortar attack by Hamas on the village. “He was just a little boy. What has he done wrong?” Ban asked in a speech following the encounter. Tragerman’s parents, Gila and Doron, sent a letter to the secretary general last month urging him to speak out against war crimes committed by Hamas. The UN chief arrived in Israel on Monday and has been on a multi-day tour of the region, including a brief visit to the Gaza Strip on Tuesday.

Headline:     Border Policeman Injured in Bomb Attack at Rachel’s Tomb

A border policeman was lightly injured in his leg, apparently after Arab rioters hurled an explosive device at Israeli security forces at the Rachel’s Tomb in Bethlehem. The incident began when some 40 rioters began attacking border police stationed at the holy site to protect Jewish visitors, throwing rocks and molotov cocktails at them. Border police responded by advancing on the rioters in an attempt to disperse them. At that point the improvised explosive device was launched at troops, who responded with riot-control measures. Security forces have begun an investigation to track down the terrorist responsible for throwing the bomb. Palestinian Arab terrorists regularly attack Rachel’s Tomb, which is believed to be the burial place of the Biblical Matriarch Rachel. It comes amid renewed violence by Arabs against Jews in Jerusalem, particularly on the Temple Mount – Judaism’s holiest site – as well as against the capital’s light rail system.

Headline: Hezbollah: Attack on IDF at Lebanon-Israel Border a ‘Message’

In a rare visit to the Bekaa apparently to boost morale, Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah vowed to defeat terrorist groups while warning Israel that he stood ready for any confrontation despite the battle against extremists. “Victory will be the ally of the mujahedeen in their fight against takfiri and terrorist groups the same way it was their ally in the confrontation against the Israeli enemy,” Nasrallah said in remarks published Tuesday. Addressing a number of Hezbollah cadres in the Bekaa, Nasrallah also sent a strong message to Israel that his fighters were prepared for any new aggression on Lebanon. “To all those concerned, we tell them that despite the rapid changes in the region, and despite the U.S.-led international coalition – or the ‘media alliance’ against ISIS – the resistance is not weak and will not weaken,” he said. “Rather, the resistance is present, strong and ready to confront and repel any [Israeli] aggression.”

Headline:  Saudi forces, Yemeni tribesmen clash in Yemen’s Sa’ada province

Saudi border guards have reportedly clashed with Yemeni tribesmen in Yemen’s northwestern province of Sa’ada. According to a report published on the Arabic-language news website, Yemen Now, the clashes broke out on Tuesday in Munbeh region of the province as Saudi guards sought to install checkpoints on the Yemeni side of the border. There were no immediate reports of casualties. Local Yemeni sources have expressed concern that the clashes might be an excuse by Saudis to open a new war front against Yemen’s Shia Ansarullah movement. The movement has been at odds with Riyadh, which has been in control of the Yemeni provinces of Asir, Najran and Jizan since the 1930s.

Thirty students were arrested during clashes between students and security forces at Alexandria University’s engineering faculty, according to an interior ministry statement on Tuesday. One student was injured, officials told Al-Ahram’s Arabic news website, while other reports say more were hurt in the clashes. Security forces stormed the university at the request of the university’s president, after hundreds protested for the release of their colleagues who were detained earlier in the week. Police fired teargas to disperse the protests; students claim they fired birdshot and ammunition. The students damaged the university’s gates and threw rocks at the security forces, according to the interior ministry’s statement.

The Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD) has promised to part ways with the Syrian regime and open Syrian Kurdistan up to all Kurdish political parties. Spokesman for the Kurdish United Party in Syrian Kurdistan, Nawaf Rashid, doesn’t hide the fact that one of the conditions of support from the international community for Syrian Kurds is that the PYD must cut ties with the Assad government. Rashid told BasNews that alliance forces currently attacking Islamic State (IS) militants in Iraq and Syria have asked them to split from Damascus and form a joint force. They want them to become a member of the Syrian opposition on a political as well as a security level.

Syria Headline:   Ten Syrian soldiers killed in clashes with ISIS: activists

At least 10 Syrian army soldiers, including an officer, were killed in clashes with ISIS fighters Tuesday in a rare ground confrontation between the two sides in the eastern Deir al-Zor province, an activist group said. The clashes took place on Huwiejat Sakr, a small island in the Euphrates River located just southeast of Deir al-Zor city, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. It is close to a government-controlled military air base, the last major outpost held by the Syrian army in the province. “Violent clashes have been ongoing since the morning between ISIS and an allied Islamist brigade on the one hand, and regime forces on the other,” said Rami Abdulrahman who runs the Observatory.

Iraq Headline:  ISIL gets set: ‘Up to 10,000 terrorists are ready to attack Baghdad’

Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant is believed to be preparing a massive assault on Baghdad. Officials said the Iraqi intelligence community, backed by help from the United States, detected ISIL preparations for an invasion of Baghdad over the next few months. The officials said ISIL was amassing thousands of fighters in towns around the capital while infiltrating the city itself. “Up to 10,000 terrorists are ready to attack Baghdad,” Anbar provisional council president Sabah Karhout said. Officials confirmed reports that ISIL reached suburbs of Baghdad, including Abu Ghraib. They said the collapse of the Iraq Army and security forces in Anbar would enable ISIL to organize a massive assault on Baghdad. “ISIL is building a network throughout Baghdad, particularly in the Shi’ite districts,” an official said. “The idea is for a coordinated attack within and outside the city.” ISIL was approaching Baghdad through a range of means. Officials said ISIL was using vehicles, boats and tunnels to reach the city. On Oct. 12, the Iraq Army reported destroying two ISIL boats on the Euphrates River near Baghdad. The army said its 60th Brigade also stopped two ISIL vehicles in Mahasna west of Baghdad. “Many ISIL elements were killed along the outskirts of Baghdad,” Iraqi spokesman Brig. Gen. Saad Maan said. The United States, with 1,600 troops in Iraq, has acknowledged the ISIL threat. A recent attack by ISIL was said to have targeted Baghdad International Airport, foiled by two U.S. Army AH-64 Apache attack helicopters.

Iraq Headline: Amnesty says Iraqi Shiites retaliating against Sunnis

Iraq’s Shiite militias have abducted and killed “scores” of Sunni civilians in retaliation for the onslaught by the Sunni militant Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant ( ISIL group), Amnesty International said Tuesday, claiming that the attacks are supported by the Shiite-led government in Baghdad. The Shiite militiamen number in the tens of thousands and wear military uniforms but operate outside any legal framework and without any official oversight, Amnesty said. Moreover, they are not prosecuted for the crimes, the London-based watchdog warned in its new report, entitled “Absolute Impunity: Militia Rule in Iraq.” The accusations were based on interviews with families and survivors who claimed that members of four prominent Iraqi Shiite militias — Asaib Ahl al-Haq, the Badr Brigades, the Mahdi Army, and Ketaeb Hizbollah — were behind many abductions and killings of Sunnis in the country. The report underscores a possible new layer in the complex violence that has gripped Iraq since the ISIL group’s lightening offensive this summer. The Sunni militants seized large swaths of territory in Iraq and Syria, carving out a self-styled caliphate, imposing strict Islamic law and expelling hundreds of thousands of Iraqis of religious and other minorities from their homes.

Headline: Obama, foreign military chiefs, to thrash out Islamic State plans

President Barack Obama will hash out a strategy to counter Islamic State with military leaders from some 20 countries including Turkey and Saudi Arabia on Tuesday amid growing pressure for the U.S.-led coalition to do more to stop the militants’ advance. As the commanders gathered, the U.S. military announced that U.S. and Saudi planes had carried out 21 airstrikes in the last two days near the contested Syrian border town of Kobani, an unusually large number of attacks on one of the flashpoints of the campaign. U.S. Central Command said the strikes on the militants’ staging areas, compounds and armed vehicles, were meant to hit supply lines and stop reinforcements. It said the situation was fluid but the Kurdish militia was “continuing to hold out.” Obama was due to address the meeting of coalition military chiefs, led by General Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, at Andrews Air Force Base outside Washington at 3 p.m. EDT. The meeting was “part of ongoing efforts to build the coalition and integrate the capabilities of each country into the broader strategy,” said Alistair Baskey, spokesman for the White House National Security Council. Colonel Ed Thomas, Dempsey’s spokesman, said no major policy decisions were expected, adding: “It’s about coming together in person to discuss the vision, the challenges, the way ahead.”

A few thousand protesters clashed with police on Tuesday outside the Ukrainian parliament, throwing stones and smoke bombs and firing with air guns through the building’s windows. A Reuters photographer said the protesters, many of whom were masked and armed with batons or metal chains, massed outside the main entrance of the building and began bombarding it with projectiles. Parliamentary deputies, who had just passed anti-corruption laws and voted in a new defense minister in what was the last day of the current parliament before an election on Oct. 26, went into recess because of the disorder outside. It was not immediately clear what the demands of the protesters were. Several of them declined to say what political forces they represented.

Headline:   Iran says Saudi comments may damage ties

Iran’s Foreign Ministry warned Saudi Arabia on Tuesday that comments calling it “part of the problem” in the Middle East may damage diplomatic ties, the country’s state news agency reported. Saudi Arabia, a Sunni powerhouse, and Iran, the dominant Shiite force in the Middle East, long have viewed each other with suspicion. However the two countries have recently tried to get closer ties through bilateral meetings and visits. On Monday, Saudi Foreign Minister Saud al-Faisal accused Tehran of having forces inside Syria, Iraq and Yemen, and insisted that Iran is “part of the problem” in trying to defuse a myriad of Mideast crises. Reacting to al-Faisal, Iran’s IRNA news agency quoted Deputy Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian as saying: “The remark, if the report carried it precisely, is in contradiction with diplomatic negotiators between the two countries.”

A self-declared government set up by an armed group that seized the Libyan capital in August has taken over the websites of the state administration and the national oil company, adding to confusion over who is running the country. With Libya’s official government and parliament now operating from towns hundreds of miles east of Tripoli, the armed group, from the western city of Misrata, that has seized ministry buildings in the capital now controls their websites. The website of Prime Minister Abdullah Thinni – who now sits with his cabinet in the eastern city of Bayda – shows the picture of the man the Misrata rebels have declared as prime minister, Omar al-Hasi, and lists the names of his team. The group, which calls itself the National Salvation government, has also taken over the website of the National Oil Corp. Next to tender offers, the website features the picture of the self-declared government’s oil minister. Libya’s neighbours and Western powers fear the conflict between the two rival governments could drag the OPEC member into civil war.

Headline:  Algerian police make rare protest in capital

Hundreds of Algeria’s policemen set to be deployed to a riot-torn southern city staged a protest march through the capital on Tuesday. The country’s police have not been known to demonstrate before and the unprecedented march comes at a delicate time for this key U.S. ally in the war against terror, with its long ruling president rarely seen and rumored to be ill. The protesters were showing their solidarity for their colleagues in the southern oasis city Ghardaia to end the attacks on security forces in the area that is the scene of constant riots, Djilali Boudalia, a police spokesman, told the state news agency. Thousands of police have been sent to Ghardaia, some 500 kilometers south of Algiers, to stop the constant clashes between the rival Berber and Arab communities there. About a dozen people have been killed and many shops burned in the riots that have flared since December as the communities compete for scarce jobs and housing there. Two people were killed in clashes Monday and dozens of police wounded.

Turkish F-16 and F-4 warplanes have bombed Kurdish PKK rebel targets near the Iraqi border, as their ceasefire comes under increasing strain. The air strikes on Daglica were in response to PKK shelling of a military outpost, the armed forces said. Both sides have been observing a truce and it is the first major air raid on the PKK since March 2013. Kurds are furious at Turkey’s inaction as Islamic State (IS) militants attack the Syrian border town of Kobane. Fighters from the PKK (Kurdistan Workers’ Party) have been aiding Kurdish YPG militia in Kobane and Turkey has refused to help supply its long-standing enemy with weapons or allow Kurdish fighters to enter Syria. Two PKK commanders wounded in fighting were arrested by Turkish authorities when they arrived for treatment in hospital in south-eastern Turkey, Anatolia news agency reported.

Headline: Protesters burn state government buildings in Guerrero, Mexico over student disappearances

Protesters set fire to government buildings in Mexico’s Guerrero state on Monday to express outrage over the alleged police involvement in the disappearance and suspected murder of 43 college students. Protests have been ongoing since the students disappeared Sept. 26, but Monday’s protest marked a violent turn in the state capital, Chilpancingo. Enraged students, teachers and family members issued a demand to state Governor Angel Aguirre to release the students or explain what happened to them within 24 hours. Investigators said that forensic examinations are still being conducted on the charred remains of 28 corpses buried in shallow graves. The graves were found based on a tip provided by alleged assassins with the Guerreros Unidos gang who confessed to working with police to attack the students. Contradicting federal prosecutors’ statements regarding the investigation, Aguirre told reporters over the weekend “I have confidence that we’ll find [the students] alive,” claiming that some of the graves were not those of the students but of other victims “of organized crime.”

The demonstrators blocked the underpass with tires, metal and plastic safety barriers and concrete slabs taken from drainage ditches. Earlier, hundreds of police wearing helmets and holding shields and batons scuffled with the protesters in a brief, tense standoff, according to local television news. The student-led protesters are now in their third week of occupying key roads and streets in Hong Kong’s business district. Positions on both sides have been hardening since the government called off negotiations last week. It was not immediately clear what caused Tuesday night’s standoff, but local news reports said it began when police arrested a protester. That angered some demonstrators, who then tried to take over the tunnel in front of the government headquarters near the entrance to the office of the city’s leader. The reports said police sent in reinforcements and used pepper spray to try to disperse the protesters but failed and retreated, leaving the tunnel in the hands of an even bigger crowd of protesters.

Headline: WHO: W. African Ebola Rate Underreported

The number of cases in the Ebola outbreak has risen to nearly 9,000, with the number of dead climbing to nearly 4,500, as the World Health Organization (WHO) warned Tuesday that there could be up to 10,000 new cases a week in two months. For the last four weeks, there’s been about 1,000 new cases per week – including suspected, confirmed and probable cases, WHO assistant director-general Dr. Bruce Aylward said, adding that the U.N. health agency is aiming to get 70 percent of cases isolated within two months to reverse the outbreak. WHO increased its Ebola death toll tally to 4,447 people on Tuesday, nearly all of them in West Africa, from 8,914 cases. The death rate has risen to 70 percent— previously the WHO estimated the death rate at around 50 percent. Aylward said the 70 percent death rate was “a high mortality disease” in any circumstance and that the U.N. health agency was still focused on trying to get sick people isolated and provide treatment as early as possible.

Headline: Ebola, Enterovirus, Now The Plague?

It’s been a bad couple of months for humans. Ebola is raging in Africa and has made its way to the United States, and Enterovirus D-68 has sickened children across the country, causing some deaths. Now comes word of the plague being found in fleas in Arizona. “Fleas collected near Flagstaff have tested positive for the plague, according to officials with the Coconino County Public Health Services District,” reports ABC 15 in Flagstaff. The plague is not uncommon to the area, but it is transferable to humans through bites from infected animals, including fleas. Symptoms generally manifest themselves within two to six days after exposure and include “fever, chills, headache, weakness, muscle pain and swollen lymph glands in the groin, armpits or limbs.”

Headline: Uganda: two new suspected Marburg cases put in isolation – second outbreak forming?

Two new suspect cases of Marburg have been put in isolation at the national referral hospital Mulago. They did not have any contact with the health worker who died of Marburg on September 28th, which could suggest a 2nd outbreak may be festering. Three other suspected cases are in isolation camps in Ibanda and Entebbe and preliminary tests on them have so far turned out negative. Test will be re-administered. The Marburg virus is similar to the Ebola virus in more ways than one. They both cause illnesses marked by severe bleeding (haemorrhage), organ failure and, in many cases, death. The Marburg virus is a genetically unique zoonotic (transmissible from animal to man) RNA virus of the filovirus family. The five species of Ebola virus are the only other known members of the filovirus family. The reservoir host of Marburg virus is the African fruit bat which, when infected with the virus, do not to show obvious signs of illness. Although, it is not clearly known of how the Marburg virus first got transmitted from its animal host to humans, it was discovered that in the two cases in Uganda in 2008, unprotected contact with infected bat faeces or aerosols were the most likely routes of infection. In some other outbreaks, persons who have handled infected non-human primates or have come in direct contact with their fluids or cell cultures have become infected. As soon as infection occurs, it leads to contracting the deadly Marburg Haemorrhagic Fever which has a high mortality.

Headline:     Sweden close to being cashless society: report

Four out of five purchases in Sweden are paid electronically or by debit card and with the development of cheaper technology the trend is moving towards a fully cash free society, according to a new report. “Sweden and the rest of Scandinavia leads the world in terms of cashless trading,” said Bengt Nilervall at the Swedish Federation of Trade (Svensk Handel). Swedes use their debit and credit cards almost every day – an average of 260 transactions per person per year. The picture is very different in southern Europe. In Italy, for example, three-quarters of all consumer purchases are still paid for in cash. “That is due to the low confidence in the authorities and the banking system,” said Niklas Arvidsson, an associate professor of industrial dynamics. Arvidsson argued that Sweden could become completely cash free but predicts that this development is unlikely until at least 2030.

Israeli Police Forces vs. Temple Mount Rioters

Headline:   Clashes at Jerusalem holy site

Headline:     Netanyahu: Palestinian rioters fueling Temple Mount unrest

Police trapped dozens of Arab rioters at the al-Aksa mosque for hours Monday after the rioters collected rocks, fireworks, and firebombs in order to confront police and disturb Jewish visitors to the site. The rioters set up barricades at the entrance to the al-Aksa mosque. Police said they removed the barricades while under assault of a barrage of rocks and managed to push the rioters inside the mosque and lock them inside. Four suspects were arrested. Public Security Minister Yitzhak Aharonovich said many of the rioters were Hamas and Islamic Jihad members. Arab protesters accused Israel of being a “terror state” and of harming the mosque. United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon complained about Israel’s handling of the situation on the Mount in statements he made in Ramallah and at a press conference with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. “I am deeply concerned by repeated provocations at the Holy Sites in Jerusalem,” the secretary-general said. “These only inflame tensions and must stop.” Netanyahu used the UN chief’s statement as an opportunity to educate him and the world about what has been going on at the Temple Mount. “I’m committed and Israel is committed to maintaining the status quo exactly as it’s been for many decades,” he said. “What we’re seeing are Palestinian extremists who are instigating violence through incitement. The incitement is spread by false and baseless rumors that we are threatening the Muslim holy places. Nothing could be further from the truth.”

A senior Iranian official warned the U.S. that Israel’s security would be at risk should the U.S. and its allies seek to topple Syrian President Bashar Assad. Deputy Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian confirmed that his country and the U.S. exchanged messages over the fight against the militant Islamic State group. Iran has backed Assad during Syria’s three-year civil war. The U.S. has called for Assad to resign and rules out cooperating with his government in the fight against the Islamic State group. Abdollahian’s comments were the first time a senior Iranian official confirmed that Iran and the U.S. had discussed fighting the Islamic State group.

Headline:      Netanyahu Slams Ban Ki-Moon’s ‘Occupation’ Remarks

Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu fired at UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon’s insistence that the “occupation” justified Hamas’s launching over 3,600 rockets on Israeli civilians on Monday, in a series of remarks before a private meeting with the international figure. Netanyahu began by noting that the entire concept of an “occupation” in Gaza has been made moot after the 2005 Disengagement. “The root cause of the violence that burst from Gaza is not Israel’s occupation in Gaza, for a simple reason: Israel doesn’t occupy Gaza,” Netanyahu explained. “Israel left Gaza to the very last centimeter, to the very last inch. We uprooted all the settlements and vacated all the settlers. So there is no Israeli occupation of Gaza.” Netanyahu then pointed out that Ban justified Hamas’s rocket barrage despite the fact that it used the UN’s own facilities to break international law. “The root cause of this summer’s outburst of violence was Hamas’ rocketing of Israeli cities, and these rocket attacks often exploited UN neutrality, using UN facilities and UN schools as part of the Hamas machine of terror,” he thundered. “And when rockets were discovered inside UN schools, some UN officials handed them back to Hamas – that very same Hamas that was rocketing Israeli cities and Israeli civilians.” The Prime Minister then reiterated the fact that Hamas is a terror group dedicated to genocide against Jews.

You know better what you need and how to achieve it. We think that the Palestinian case is fair, meaning that people have a right to self-determination, up to establishing their state,” Bogdanov told journalists, according to the report. Abbas’s move, which he plans to carry out through a resolution at the UN Security Council, is a unilateral move which is in direct violation of the Oslo Accords.

Headline:      British lawmakers voted on Monday to recognise Palestine as a state

British lawmakers voted in favour of recognising Palestine as a state on Monday in a move that will not alter the government’s stance on the issue, but that carries symbolic value for Palestinians in their pursuit of statehood. Lawmakers in Britain’s lower house of parliament voted by 274 to 12 to pass a non-binding motion stating: “That this House believes that the Government should recognise the state of Palestine alongside the state of Israel as a contribution to securing a negotiated two-state solution.” Britain does not classify Palestine as a state, but says it could do so at any time if it believed it would help peace efforts between the Palestinians and Israel. Government ministers were told to abstain and the non-binding vote will not force Britain to recognise a Palestinian state.

Headline:      Rebuilding Gaza: Donors ‘pledge $5.4bn’ at Cairo summit

International donors have pledged $5.4bn (£3.4bn) to help Gaza’s reconstruction at a conference in Cairo, Norway’s foreign minister says. The total, which includes $212m (£132m) from the US and $1bn (£622m) from Qatar, exceeds the sum requested. The Palestinian Authority had appealed for $4bn (£2.5bn) to rebuild Gaza. At least 100,000 Gazans lost their homes in the 50-day conflict between Israel and Hamas, and much of the territory’s infrastructure was damaged. Envoys from dozens of countries have been attending the Cairo conference, which is hosted by Egypt’s President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi. “The participants pledged approximately $5.4bn,” Norway’s Boerge Brende was quoted as saying by Egyptian state television. Earlier the Palestinian and Egyptian presidents called on Israel to commit to a long-term peace initiative.

On Monday, Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal stated that “Iranian forces in Syria are occupying forces,” and that Iran must “pull its forces from Syria.” Prince al-Faisal made his statement at a joint press conference in the Saudi Arabian Red Sea city of Jeddah with his German counterpart Frank-Walter Steinmeier. Al-Faisal’s legal designation of Iran as an “occupying force” in Syria could have significant war crimes implications for Iran since, under such a “occupying force” definition, Iran could be held legally responsible for the war crimes and genocide of Assad’s chlorine chemical attacks on Syrian Sunni civilians. Prince al-Faisal also accused Iran of instigating many other conflicts in the Middle East when he said, “In many conflicts, Iran is part of the problem, not the solution.” Specifically, in Syria, he accused Tehran of sending to troops that are “fighting Syrians.” And he added, “If Iran wants to be part of the solution in Syria, it has to pull its forces from Syria. The same applies elsewhere, whether in Yemen or Iraq.”

Headline:  Egypt Police Storm 2 Universities Over Protests

Egyptian police backed by armored vehicles stormed the campuses of at least two prominent Egyptian universities to quell anti-government protests by students, officials and a student spokesman said Sunday. Sunday’s largest rallies took place at Cairo and the Islamist al-Azhar universities, where students smashed a number of newly installed metal detectors at campus gates. Ahead of the academic year which began Saturday, authorities intensified security measures at universities nationwide to prevent the resurgence of student protests organized largely by supporters of toppled Islamist President Mohammed Morsi, overthrown last year by the military after massive protests against him. Last year, at least 16 students were killed and hundreds were arrested during protests that regularly descended into violence. This year, government officials warned that renewed protests would not be tolerated on campuses, enacting new regulations curbing student activities. Authorities hired a private security firm to search students, as well as install metal detectors and cameras around campuses. New fortified walls were built and troops were permanently deployed outside campuses. Student protest spokesman Youssef Salhen said protesters clashed briefly with police Sunday outside of al-Azhar University. Salhen said students attacked the newly installed metal detectors, which he described as symbols of new “repressive measures” against the student protest movement. He said tightening restrictions on student activities and protests will not put a dent into their rallies against the authorities.

Syria Headline:   Syria’s air force ramps up strikes in west as US hits east

Syria’s air force carried out strikes against rebels at more than double its usual rate on Monday, according to a monitoring group, ramping up its offensive near the capital while Washington strikes so-called Islamic State (ISIL) fighters far away. The intensified air strikes by President Bashar al-Assad’s government will add to the fear among Assad’s opponents that he is taking advantage of the US strikes to crush other foes, including the “moderate opposition” that Washington backs. The United States says it does not want to help Assad’s government despite bombing ISIL, the most powerful group fighting against Damascus in a three year civil war. Washington aims to help arm moderates to fight against both Assad and the ISIL. But within days of the start of US air strikes in Syria last month, Assad’s government stepped up the tempo of its own air campaign against rebels closer to the capital Damascus.

Syria Headline:  Report cites evidence ISIL used chemical weapons in Kobane assault

Activists say Kurdish fighters have been able to halt the advance of the Islamic State extremist group in the Syrian border town of Kobani, where the U.S.-led coalition has been carrying out airstrikes for more than two weeks. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says the militants have not been able to advance since Friday but are sending in reinforcements. Farhad Shami, a Kurdish activist in Kobani reached by phone from Beirut, says the town was “relatively quiet” on Sunday apart from sniper fire. He said Islamic State fighters launched an offensive south of the town Saturday but were repelled and lost many fighters. Rami Abdurrahman, the Observatory’s chief, said 36 jihadi fighters were killed in Kobani on Saturday. The jihadists control more than a third of the town. Then on Monday, an Islamic State suicide bomber detonated a truck laden with explosives in the northern part of the besieged Kurdish town of Kobani, near the Turkish border crossing with Syria, a monitoring group and Kurdish sources said. The attack took place about 2 km north of Kobani, which has been the scene of heavy clashes between Kurdish forces and Islamic State fighters, who have tightened their grip on the city, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights and Kurdish officials said.

Clashes broke out between militants of the Islamic State (IS/ISIL) and the Syrian regime’s forces near Mount Abdulaziz in the western countryside of Hasakah, northeastern Syria, on Monday morning. Local activists told ARA News that clashes took place following IS attacks on the villages of Makhrum, al-Hara and Sodat Abd in the coutryside of Hasakah, which are held by the pro-Assad militia of National Defence Army. The same sources asserted that the three villages are close to the regime regarding the number of army recruits and they show aggression to IS proponents, following several incidents which claimed lives of a number of pro-Assad gunmen at secutiry checkpoints. Meanwhile, clashes moved to east of Geweran neighbourhood (in southern Hasaka) close to Red Villas area, where Kurdish fighters of the Popular Protection Units (YPG) are based. Based on the same sources, the area was targeted by three missiles; two close to the YPG-held cemeteries checkpoint in Geweran while the third hit the Red Villas’ security checkpoint. According to the YPG, IS militants have launched these attacks on Sunday. Dozens of mortars fell close to YPG’s headquarters and the newly established chackpoint of Aziziya in Hasakah, which caused a state of panic in the city’s northern neighbourhoods such as al-Mifti and al-Salhiya.

Iraq Headline:  Iraq urges U.S. to send ground troops as ISIS jihadists close in on Baghdad

Iraq Headline: Iraqi FM says no request for foreign boots to fight ISIL

Iraqi officials issued a desperate plea Saturday night for America to provide ground troops, as heavily armed ISIS jihadists came within striking distance of Baghdad. Amid reports that Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham forces have advanced as far as Abu Ghraib, a town that is effectively a suburb of Baghdad, a senior local governor claimed that up to 10,000 fighters from the movement were now poised to assault the capital. The warning came from Sabah Al-Karhout, the president of the provisional council of Anbar Province, the vast desert region to the west of Baghdad that has now largely fallen under ISIS control. The province’s two main cities, Fallujah and Ramadi, were once known as “the graveyard of the Americans,” and the idea of returning there will not be welcomed by the Pentagon. But were the province to fall completely into militant hands, it would give ISIS a perfect springboard from which to mount an all-out assault on Baghdad, where a team of about 1,500 U.S. troops is already acting as mentors to the beleaguered Iraqi army. Iraqi government officials claim that while international attention has been focused in recent weeks on the Syrian town of Kobane on the Turkish border – where Kurdish fighters are still battling to keep advancing ISIS gunmen at bay – Anbar province has been on the verge of collapse. Government forces in the provincial capital Ramadi are still holding out against the ISIS offensive. But U.S. officials yesterday warned that the city was in a “tenuous” position. The surge of jihadi activity has also led to speculation that the group’s operation in Kobane was part of an elaborate decoy mission orchestrated by Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi, the ISIS “caliph.” Observers point out that while the capture of Kobane would not greatly increase ISIS’s military clout, the capture of Ramadi or other cities in Anbar would be catastrophic both for the Iraqi government and Western hopes of attempting to contain the group.

Iraq Headline:  Iraq pulls troops from ISIS-held Heet

Militants with the Islamic State group on Monday captured a military training camp in western Iraq, inching closer to full control of the restive Anbar province. The camp, near the town of Hit that fell to the insurgents earlier this month, was overrun in the morning hours after clashes with Iraqi soldiers who were forced to abandon the camp and withdraw from the area, two Anbar officials told The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media. Town residents confirmed the camp’s fall, speaking to the AP also on condition of anonymity, fearing for their own safety.

Iraq Headline: Thirty killed in three bombings in Shi’ite parts of Baghdad

Iraq Headline: ISIS attack on Baghdad Airport thwarted by US helicopters says US General Dempsey

Three bombs exploded in Shi’ite parts of Baghdad on Monday, killing 30 people, police and medical officials said, continuing a wave of attacks targeting Iraq’s majority religious group. Baghdad’s largest Shi’ite neighbourhood, Sadr City, was rocked by two blasts: a bomb in the late afternoon that killed six people near a marketplace, and a car bomb at a police checkpoint that killed 16 people and wounded 30, according to medical and police officials. In Kahdimiya, in western Baghdad, a car bomb killed eight civilians and wounded 21 others at the main checkpoint to the district, police and medical officials said. The death toll rose from an initial figure officials gave of 22. There was no claim for the bombings, but the Shi’ite-government has been at war with Islamic State across central and western Iraq.

Kurdish Headline: Triple bombing in Iraq kills 26 Kurds

A triple suicide bombing killed 26 Kurdish security forces northeast of Baghdad on Sunday and a roadside bomb killed the police chief of the western Anbar province, dealing major blows to Iraqi security forces struggling to combat the Islamic State extremist group. The triple attack took place in Qara Tappah, in the ethnically and communally mixed Diyala province, according to an official from the Kurdish Asayish security forces. He said the first bomber detonated an explosives vest at the gateway to a security compound that also houses the office of a main Kurdish political party. Minutes later, two suicide bombers plowed cars filled with explosives into the compound, causing heavy damage. At least 60 people were wounded in the attack. The Islamic State extremist group claimed the attack, saying it was carried out by three non-Iraqi jihadists. The authenticity of the online statement could not be independently verified, but it was posted on a Twitter account frequently used by the militant group. The group has seized some towns in the volatile Diyala province and has clashed with Kurdish forces there. Hospital officials confirmed the casualties. All officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.

Kurdish Headline: Iraqi Kurds Urge Turkey To Let Volunteers Through To Defend Kobani

A top official of Iraq’s autonomous Kurdish region is calling on Turkey to let volunteer fighters through to the besieged Syrian city of Kobani, where Syrian Kurds are waging a desperate battle against Islamic State (IS) militants. Speaking on a visit to RFE/RL in Prague on October 13, Falah Mustafa, the foreign minister of the Kurdish regional government (KRG), said Ankara should heed calls from the international community to help the city, which has been under siege for almost four weeks. “It’s a moral responsibility for all of us to move in order to help the besieged [city of] Kobani,” Mustafa said. “We hope that there would be an understanding by Turkey to the calls from the international community and to the needs of these people who have proven to be bravely fighting the terrorists throughout this period, from the day they have been besieged.” He said Ankara should establish a corridor between its border checkpoint of Mursitpinar and Kobani, whose northern edge is less than a kilometer from the Turkish frontier. “We are not asking for the impossible,” Mustafa said. “For a corridor to be opened for those who are ready to go and join [the fighters in Kobani], because they need weapons, they need ammunition, they need medical assistance, and they need foodstuffs.

Headline:  ISIS magazine shows its flag flying over Vatican

The black flag of Islamic militant group ISIS is shown flying above St. Peter’s Square on the cover of the group’s magazine Dabiq, which called in its latest issue for a war against the Catholic Church. With the headline The Failed Crusade, the photo-shopped cover of Dabiq caps new threats against Rome and the Vatican as well as forces led by the United States in a bombing campaign in Iraq and Syria against ISIS militants. It threatens to “conquer” Rome and “break your crosses,” referring to the symbol of Christianity.
The group has previously suggested that the fight is about religion and western forces are attacking the Islamic faith rather than the militants – a modern version of the medieval Crusades that pitted the Roman Catholic Christians of the day against Islam. The article in Dabiq – named for a town in northern Syria – also urged faithful Muslims to attack and kill “every Crusader possible” and added that “it is lawful to kidnap the women of the infidels and use them as sex slaves”. Last month, security officials said that they had stepped up security at the Vatican following threats by ISIS, which wants to establish an Islamic Caliphate. This marked the fourth issue of Dabiq, which is published in English.

Headline: Shelling heard near Ukraine’s Donetsk airport

Artillery fire has been reported between pro-Russian forces and the Ukrainian army near the Donetsk airport in the country’s war-torn east. The airport, which saw artillery duel on Sunday, has been the center of intense fighting that has continued despite a shaky truce between the two sides signed on September 5. Pro-Russian forces are seeking to retake the airport, which is considered as the Ukrainian government’s last outpost in the areas controlled by the pro-Russians. Meanwhile, residents of Donetsk say the flashpoint city is shelled daily. Pro-Russians insist that they have been sticking to the ceasefire, and only respond to incoming fire. But Kiev says its troops have repelled daily raids on their airport positions. This comes as Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has announced plans to meet his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, in the Italian city of Milan on Friday.

Headline: Sudan restates claim to disputed territory with Egypt

Egyptian-Sudanese relations are currently witnessing a silent confusion after Khartoum approved an earlier decision to declare the disputed area of Halayeb and Shalateen, on the borders of the two countries, an electoral district for both the parliamentary and presidential elections at the beginning of 2015. Cairo is also preparing to conduct parliamentary elections with the participation of the same electoral district at the end of this year, and considers this area to be an integral part of Egyptian territory, according to the Egyptian Foreign Ministry. This creates further complications, especially with the increasing demands from political parties in Egypt that Egyptian President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi act quickly to resolve the matter before the Sudanese elections, believing that Sudan has violated international law with its decision, which they described as anti-Egyptian.

Headline: 23 Killed in Libya as Islamist Militants Battle Rival Militias

Fighting between Islamist militias and rival groups in a western Libyan town has killed at least 23 people, a hospital official said Sunday. The intense battle in Kikla also left 43 people wounded, mainly from shrapnel wounds, said the official, Emad Khalifa Abdul-Salam of the Gharyan hospital, southwest of the capital, Tripoli. The fighting is part of a nationwide power struggle between Islamist-backed militias, which have seized control of most of Tripoli, including its international airport, and their opponents, who back an internationally recognized government based in the far eastern part of the country. The anti-Islamist Zintan militia, named for its hometown in the west, attacked Kikla, an Islamist stronghold, on Saturday. A commander in the Islamist militias, known as Libya Dawn, said the Zintan militia, with the backing of local tribes, was able to seize parts of Kikla and briefly cut roads between Kikla and Gharyan, about 50 miles southwest of Tripoli. But the Libya Dawn fighters forced them to retreat, allowing traffic to resume, the commander said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the news media. Facebook pages affiliated with the Zintan militias showed pictures of Libya Dawn vehicles they claimed to have seized in the fighting.

An unnamed official told the Associated Press that there is no new agreement, and Turkey and the U.S. are still talking about the Incirlik air base as well as Turkish demands for the creation of a no-fly zone and a safe haven for refugees. The denial comes after Obama administration officials told The New York Times that an American assessment team is expected to arrive in Turkey this week to determine what kind of missions can be flown from the Turkish bases, as well as and iron out the details of a training program for moderate Syrian rebels that also reportedly was agreed on over the weekend. U.S. Defense officials, though, told Fox News it is premature to say what the Turks might be agreeing to, though a U.S. military team is slated to head to Turkey later in the week.

Headline:    Pro- and anti-ISIL students clash at Turkish universities

A series of tense incidents has taken place at some of Turkey’s universities, including İstanbul University and the Middle East Technical University (ODTÜ), over the past couple of weeks as pro- and anti-Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) groups of students continue to clash. Twenty-seven pro-ISIL students were detained by police after a quarrel erupted with anti-ISIL students at İstanbul University’s faculty of economics and administrative sciences on Monday. The pro-ISIL students, who reportedly had their faces covered, wearing black hats and holding sticks, were heard shouting phrases like, “We are Muslim students,” as they were taken to police vehicles. Nine of the detained students are allegedly affiliated with Muslim Youths Association which is known for its radical Islamist tendencies. The detained students were taken to the İstanbul Police Department’s anti-terror office for interrogation after undergoing health checks at a hospital. Some anti-ISIL students at the university’s campus issued a press statement after the attack, saying: “We, students of the İstanbul University, have been subject to the aggression of ISIL supporters who have blood on their hands. ISIL militants are known for their aggression. They murder children and rape women in Rojava and Kobani. Those pro-ISIL ‘so-called’ students with black masks attacked us with sticks.” The Justice and Development Party (AK Party) government has been the target of criticism for failing to act against ISIL to save Kobani. Violent protests against ISIL attacks and AK Party policy led to the deaths of 34 people last week.

Turkish police are on high security alert after a large amount of explosives were seized in the southeastern province of Gaziantep. Police seized 150 kilograms of C4 explosives, 20 vests for suicide attacks, and a number of guns and bullets in the operation, daily Habertürk has reported. The amount of explosives could destroy a middle-sized city, the report stated. Gaziantep Police Department head Ali Gezer previously said people “would be terrified” if he announced the amount of weapons and ammunition seized by police in the recent operation. Police are considering the possibility that the ammunition could belong to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), after initial suspicion had focused on the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK). They are reportedly considering that the seized explosives could be part of ammunition that was allegedly deployed by ISIL in big cities, the report added. Red alerts have been issued in many cities, including Istanbul and Ankara.

About 12,000 people have rallied in the capital of Armenia to protest a constitutional change being proposed by the president. Protesters and leaders of Armenia’s three major opposition parties, which organized Friday’s rally together despite their ideological differences, also called for the resignation of the government, blaming it for a dismal economic growth. An ad-hoc commission was set up in Armenia early this year to consider potential changes to the constitution. President Serge Sarkisian, who is now the head of state, has proposed a change that would make the prime minister the government’s top official. The opposition claims he has done that so he could run for that job when his second and final term as president ends in 2018 and thereby potentially remain Armenia’s leader.

Headline: Thousands join ‘weekend of resistance’ as Brown protests expand beyond Ferguson

Headline:  Hundreds, led by clergy, march to Ferguson police station Monday

Protests over the Aug. 9 killing of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager, continue to grow as thousands of people from all over the United States descended on greater St. Louis to take part in a weekend-long series of events and marches demanding “justice” for the killing. Events in what one student called “the epicenter of the movement against police brutality” have transformed since the violence of the immediate aftermath of the shooting into a more sophisticated, but often edgy and raw, strategy where protesters are fanning out to civic events like the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra and sporting events, including this weekend’s baseball playoffs featuring the St. Louis Cardinals. What has been billed by organizers as a “weekend of resistance” is part of an evolving protest strategy as the country awaits a grand jury verdict. The new wave of increasingly organized protests are also serving as a stark warning to authorities that only an indictment will be accepted by the community. City officials are taking those warnings seriously, as they’ve already laid plans to respond to any potential outbreak of social unrest.

Suspected Islamist rebels detonated a car bomb in front of a popular cafe in the centre of the Somali capital on Sunday evening, killing at least seven people, police and the emergency services said. There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but the Islamist militant group al Shabaab has frequently set off bombs or launched gun attacks in Mogadishu. It promised more attacks after it lost control of a major coastal stronghold a week ago. “We believe al Shabaab is behind the blast,” police officer Major Nuur Farah told Reuters, saying the venue had been busy.

Headline:  Yemen southerners plan huge protests to demand secession

Southern separatists in Yemen have called for huge demonstrations Tuesday to demand secession, aiming to benefit from the political chaos in Sanaa after the capital’s takeover by Shiite rebels. Hardliners in the Southern Movement called for protests in Aden, the capital of former South Yemen, and in Mukalla, provincial capital of Hadramawt in the southeast. The chosen date, October 14, marks the 51st anniversary of the south’s revolt against British colonial rule. The aim is to “send one last message to the northerners that we are more determined than ever to build an independent state,” said Abdullah al-Jifri, leader of a southern faction. The head of the League of Southerners, who lives in exile in Saudi Arabia, called for a large turnout at the demonstrations. “The people of the south are marching to Aden from all provinces because they realise that the ongoing dispute provides the last chance to cap years of struggle for the south’s independence,” said Khalid al-Kathiri, spokesman for the Supreme Council of the Southern Movement. One southern protester was shot dead and four others were wounded on August 28 when police opened fire at a demonstration by separatists in the port city of Aden.

Fresh violence has broken out in Hong Kong as hundreds of unidentified men attacked protest barriers in the city, clashing with anti-election law protesters and security forces. On Monday, dozens of men, many wearing surgical masks and armed with crowbars and cutting tools, tried to forcefully remove the metal barricades that protesters had set up. This caused scuffles between demonstrators and anti-protest groups which are opposed to the campaign against the election law. A group of police officers eventually intervened. Police said they arrested two men who tried to engage in clashes with the protesters. “Before the police came, young men wearing masks and dark clothing came to pick fights with people,” Kevin Ng, an eyewitness, said. Chinese state media have blamed the US for being behind the protests in Hong Kong. The claim has been rejected by US State Department.

A Texas healthcare worker who provided care for Thomas Eric Duncan, the first patient to be given a diagnosis of Ebola in the US, who died on Wednesday, has tested positive for the deadly virus. At a Sunday morning press conference at the hospital, it was confirmed that a close contact of the healthcare worker – who officials said was wearing full protective gear when he or she made contact with Duncan – has also been placed, “proactively”, in isolation. The new case is the first person-to-person transmission of the disease in the US. Dr Tom Frieden, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said the diagnosis of the healthcare worker showed there had been a clear breach of safety protocol at the hospital.

A 21-month-old girl is the first in the state of Michigan and second in the U.S. to die this year from a strain of the enterovirus that has infected more than 500 people across the nation, health officials said on Saturday. Madeline Reid, who was stricken with Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68), passed away late on Friday while being treated at the Children’s Hospital of Michigan in Detroit, hospital officials said in a statement. More than 500 people, mostly children, in 43 states and the District of Columbia have been infected with EV-D68 since mid-August, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This week, the CDC said that a 4-year-old Eli Waller of New Jersey, who went to bed last month in seemingly good health and died in his sleep, was the first fatality linked directly to the strain of the virus. Aside from Reid and Waller, at least four others infected with Enterovirus D68 have died this year, although the CDC said it is unclear what role the virus played in their deaths.

Headline:  Vatican calls for Catholic Church to welcome gays

Catholic bishops took an unprecedented step on Monday to “welcome” homosexuals and noting they had “gifts and qualities” to offer the church. As the global synod on the family entered its second week at the Vatican, the bishops released a midterm document summarising the closed-door debate taking place between nearly 200 bishops and lay officials. While the church reaffirmed its opposition to marriage and same sex unions, the ground-breaking document said homosexuality prompted “serious reflection” and was an “important educative challenge”. “Are we capable of welcoming these people, guaranteeing them a fraternal space in our communities?” the document asked. “Often they wish to encounter a church that offers them a welcoming home. “Are our communities capable of providing that, accepting and valuing their sexual orientation, without compromising Catholic doctrine on the family and matrimony?” Cardinal Vincent Nichols, the Archbishop of Westminister and the head of the Catholic Church in England and Wales, told The Telegraph there were no easy answers and stressed that this was a synod about pastoral care. “I don’t think this document approves of same sex unions or same sex marriage. But it does make a very strong compassionate, heartfelt effort to say we want to talk, we want to engage with you,” he said. The synod document also signalled a more “constructive” approach to cohabitation and a simpler approach to marriage annulment, “speeding up” the procedure and the possibility of giving local bishops more power to dissolve marriages. No decisions or doctrinal changes were announced. But the report was described as an “earthquake” by John Thavis, journalist and author of the bestselling The Vatican Diaries”. Other commentators agreed.

Headline:  300,000 Evacuated as Strong Cyclone Hits Eastern India

A powerful cyclone crashed against the eastern coast of India close to noon on Sunday, uprooting trees, lashing the area with heavy rain and wind, and disrupting power and communication lines. Close to 300,000 people were evacuated from their homes in parts of the states of Odisha and Andhra Pradesh as of Sunday evening, according to disaster and relief officials in each state. One of the worst-hit regions was the coast of Andhra Pradesh, where more than 130,000 people were evacuated starting on Saturday in preparation for the storm, and where the 15-mile eye of the storm passed on Sunday afternoon. The storm, which is called Cyclone Hudhud, hit the southern port city of Visakhapatnam, where there is a major naval base. “There is huge damage,” said N. Chandrababu Naidu, the chief minister of Andhra Pradesh, in a telephone interview with the Indian news channel NDTV. “Even to buildings, trees and also crops. Communication has totally collapsed.” The Japanese island of Okinawa was also hit by a powerful typhoon, Vongfong, on Sunday. The typhoon was expected by Monday to fully reach the island of Kyushu, Japan, becoming the second severe storm to hit in a week, according to The Associated Press. At least 35 people were reported injured in Okinawa and Kyushu, where the authorities told 150,000 people to evacuate as the typhoon toppled trees, flooded streets and cut power to more than 60,000 homes. The Japan Meteorological Agency said the typhoon could reach the Tokyo area Tuesday, gradually losing strength as it moves up the archipelago. In India, officials with the Indian Meteorological Department said to NDTV that the winds from the cyclone were about 121 miles per hour, earning a “very severe” cyclone designation, but that within six hours, the winds would diminish by half, reducing it to a cyclone. Six hours after that, officials said, winds would further weaken by half, making it a “depression” by midnight.

Many trains in western cities were also suspended, NHK said. More than 820,000 people have been urged to leave their homes, it said. About 4,900 households in Tokyo suburbs were without power, media said. Rain in Tokyo was expected to intensify overnight. Vongfong battered the southern Japanese island of Okinawa, 600 km (1,000 miles) south of Tokyo, as well as Kyushu and Shikoku islands, injuring 59 people, NHK said. On Sunday, the wind weakened significantly from the previous day when it reached a peak of 234 kph 146 mph), which had made Vongfong into a “super typhoon”.

Headline:  Hezbollah attack on Har Dov ordered by Iran following explosion at nuclear facility

According to unnamed sources in Washington, Iran ordered its Lebanese proxy Hezbollah to carry out Tuesday’s attack on Israeli forces patrolling the Israel-Lebanon border following an alleged attack on the Parchin nuclear facility in Iran “by a foreign state,” the Kuwaiti newspaper al-Rai reported on Friday. Hezbollah planted and detonated two bombs in the Har Dov region along the Lebanese-Israeli border on Tuesday, with one device injuring two IDF soldiers. A second blast tore through the same area about 30 minutes later, but failed to cause injuries or damages. Satellite images taken of Iran’s Parchin military compound after a blast reportedly tore through it show “damage consistent with an attack” at the site, according to an earlier report by the Israel Defense website on Thursday. According to the report by Ronen Solomon, the images form evidence that “refutes the denials of the Iranian government” and prove that the explosion at Parchin – which has been linked by Western intelligence to nuclear missile fuse trials – “indeed occurred inside the military compound.” The images “clearly show damage consistent with an attack against bunkers in a central locality within the military research complex at the Parchin military compound,” the report added.

Headline:      Kotel Rabbi: ‘Temple Mount has Turned into a Terror Base’

Rabbi Shmuel Rabinowitz, the rabbi of the Kotel (Western Wall) and Holy Sites, decried the Arab attempts to wreck the week-long Sukkot holiday by launching violent riots against police and Jewish visitors on the Temple Mount, the holiest site in Judaism. Speaking to Arutz Sheva, the rabbi argued that the Arab rioters are intentionally trying to prevent Jews from reaching the site on Sukkot, one of the three Jewish pilgrimage holidays that in ancient times required Jews to travel to the Temple in Jerusalem, a practice maintained by many. “The Arab leadership’s feigned ignorance in the face of these acts of violence by young rioters is shocking,” said Rabbi Rabinowitz. “How can they deny the reality that the Temple Mount and the (Al-Aqsa) mosque has been turned into a terror base?” Indeed, on Friday police prepared for riots by limiting access for Muslims over concerns that ongoing riots would be further inflamed, particularly after Hamas called for that violence the night before saying “we will fight till the last drop of blood.” “If someone harms the holiness of the site it’s the rioters manipulating the sensitivity and holiness of the location to harm the gentle fabric in the Old City, throwing rocks and molotov cocktails from the mosque,” emphasized the rabbi. The Jordanian Waqf (Islamic trust) that holds de facto rule over the site has banned Jewish prayer at the site, while at the very least turning a blind eye to constant violent rioting. According to the rabbi, the Al-Aqsa Mosque is not being treated as a holy site by the Waqf – rather it is a political trump card. “We have never heard of a ‘holy site’ being a site of violence,” said Rabbi Rabinowitz. “These activities demonstrate that the Temple Mount for them is a platform for a political struggle and not a religious matter.”

Headline:  PA, Jordan blame Israel Police for Temple Mount riot

Following what police are deeming a planned Wednesday morning Arab riot on the Temple Mount against officers and non-Muslim visitors, a police official on Thursday denied accusations by the PA and Jordan of Israeli religious incitement. The violence took place at about 7:30 a.m. on the eve of Succot, when dozens of masked Arab youths threw rocks, firebombs, fireworks, metal pipes, and concrete slabs at officers and tourists upon opening the Mugrabi Gate entrance to the holy site. According to police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld, cops gleaned intelligence of an imminent attack to be carried out by Palestinians, who slept at the mosque the night before to orchestrate the assault and construct barricades to block responding officers. “The facts are that Israel Police were prepared for morning disturbances on the day of Succot, as we were for Rosh Hashana,” Rosenfeld said on Thursday. “Special patrol and riot units were stationed upon opening Mugrabi Gate for hundreds of visitors when 50-80 masked Arabs, who stayed overnight, threw rocks, firecrackers, pipes, and firebombs at tourists and police.” Numerous reports in Palestinian media corroborated Rosenfeld’s claim of a premeditated attack ordered by a prominent Muslim cleric. After dismantling an Arab-made roadblock obstructing the gate, Rosenfeld said police promptly responded using non-lethal force, including stun grenades, to push the rioters into al-Aksa Mosque. “It is police policy to not enter the mosque, so we locked its doors in order to contain the disturbances,” he said. “While suspects continued to throw flammable liquids at police through the windows, officers were able to eventually contain the violence and allow the hundreds of visitors to proceed touring the Temple Mount from 8 a.m.-11 a.m.” Rosenfeld said three officers were lightly wounded during the melee, which also resulted in nine Palestinian arrests. Despite the preconceived nature of the riot, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas on Wednesday accused “extremists and the settlers who are supported by the Israeli government” of attempting to turn the conflict into a religious war, rather than a political one. “These Israeli acts [are] trying to make the conflict here a religious one,” Abbas said during a press conference from his Ramallah presidential compound hours after the officers were attacked. “They, as well as us, and the whole world, know the danger of using religion in political conflicts.” Meanwhile, in a statement issued by Jordan’s government – whose Wakf Islamic religious trust has overseen the holy site since the 1967 Six Day War – a spokesman said Israeli police targeted Muslim parishioners in order to allow the tourists to proceed.“The forces of the occupation prevented religious officials from entering [the compound] and cleared it of all Muslims, while at the same time enabling Jewish extremists to storm it and pray with security forces protection,” Muhammad Momeni told AFP. Momeni went on to say dozens of Muslims were injured during the rioting and demanded that Israel “stop its devastating campaign against al-Aksa mosque, religious officials and worshipers.”

They reported no casualties in the attacks. The Army spread out across Bab al-Tabbaneh to look for the assailants, the sources added. Later, an unknown assailant also tossed a hand grenade along the city’s Abu Ali River in Tripoli overnight, the sources said. On Friday morning, soldiers also removed an undetonated hand grenade in Bab al-Tabbaneh. The Army confirmed the attacks in a statement, saying soldiers at a checkpoint in Talaat al-Omari in Bab al-Tabbaneh had returned fire after coming under attack. It also said a group of individuals tossed two hand grenades on Syria Street, which runs parrallel to the Abu Ali River, in Bab al-Tabbaneh at 4:30 a.m.

Syria Headline:   France Pushes Buffer Zone for Syria, Turkey

Islamic State fighters advanced deeper into the Syrian town of Kobani on the Turkish border on Friday, and have taken control of a command center belonging to the Kurdish forces defending the Syrian city of Kobani from invasion. “They have taken at least 40 percent (of the town),” Rami Abdulrahman, who runs the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said by telephone. Islamic State fighters were now in almost complete control of the “security quarter”, which is home to the administrative buildings used by the local government, he said.  Ocalan Iso, deputy head of the Kurdish forces, said Islamic State was still bombarding the town centre with mortars, showing that its fighters had not extended their control over more than 20 percent of the town. “There are fierce clashes and they are bombing the centre of Kobani from afar,” he said by telephone. Meanwhile, a local Kurdish official and Syrian activists say the group is shelling a Syrian border crossing with Turkey to try and capture it and cut off the embattled town of Kobani.  The official, Idriss Nassan, says Islamic State fighters aim to seize the crossing in order to close the noose around the town’s Kurdish defenders and prevent anyone from entering or leaving Kobani.  The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says the militants on Friday shelled several areas in Kobani, including the border crossing, which is the town’s only gateway to Turkey.  Islamic State group this week pushed into Kobani for the first time since launching its offensive in the area in mid-September.  Activists say the fighting over Kobani has killed more than 500 people.  The US-led coalition intensified its aerial bombardment of Islamic State positions Thursday in the Syrian border town of Kobani as the extremist group fought street battles with Kurdish forces and reportedly rushed in reinforcements. Turkish officials have said that while they do not want Kobani to fall, they will not take on a greater role until the coalition outlines a broader strategy that also includes attacking Syrian President Bashar Assad, who is best positioned to benefit from any rollback of the Islamic State group. Turkey also has called for the creation of a buffer zone inside Syria to secure the border, but the White House and Pentagon said Wednesday the US is not considering that option. Such a zone would be costly and complex to enforce.

Iraq Headline: Islamic State fighters are threatening to overrun Iraq’s Anbar province

Islamic State militants are threatening to overrun a key province in western Iraq in what would be a major victory for the jihadists and an embarrassing setback for the U.S.-led coalition targeting the group. A win for the Islamic State in Anbar province would give the militants control of one of the country’s most important dams and several large army installations, potentially adding to their abundant stockpile of weapons. It would also allow them to establish a supply line from Syria almost to Baghdad and give them a valuable position from which to launch attacks on the Iraqi capital. The Islamic State’s offensive in Anbar has received less attention than its assault on the Syrian border city of Kobane, which has played out in view of news photographers standing on hills in nearby Turkey. But in recent weeks, Islamic State fighters have systematically invaded towns and villages in Anbar, besieged army posts and police stations, and mounted attacks on Iraqi troops in Ramadi, the provincial capital. “If the Islamic State controls Anbar, they would be able to threaten serious targets in Baghdad,” said an Iraqi security expert, Saeed al-Jayashi. “The government would lose the Haditha Dam, and the security forces would have to retreat,” he said. “There would be a blood bath.”

Headline: Car Bomb Kills One in Libya’s Benghazi

A car bomb killed one person and wounded another Friday in Libya’s eastern city of Benghazi, hospital and military sources said, with neither the authors nor the motive immediately clear. The car blew up outside the Tibesti hotel in a square popular as a gathering place for demonstrations in support of Libya’s army, in a city almost entirely controlled by Islamists. There were no demonstrations planned on Friday. The oil-rich North African nation has been in turmoil since an uprising toppled longtime leader Moamer Kadhafi three years ago, with interim authorities facing powerful militias that fought to oust him. Benghazi was the cradle of the uprising, and is regularly the scene not only of fighting but also the murders of members of the security forces, political activists and journalists. At least 17 people have been killed this week in fighting for control of the airport, the last redoubt of forces loyal to a former general who launched a campaign against the Islamists in May.

At least 31 people have been killed and 360 others injured in demonstrations during a four day “spiral of violence” led by pro-Kurdish protesters against Turkey’s policy on Syria, officials said Friday. But Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan pledged that despite the violence, the authorities would press on with efforts to make peace with Kurdish rebels who have a waged a 30-year insurgency for self-rule in eastern Turkey. Interior Minister Efkan Ala told reporters that 31 people had been killed in the demonstrations, which left a trail of destruction and prompted the army to impose a curfew in parts of southeast Turkey. In addition, two policemen were shot dead in the southern city of Bingol late Thursday while inspecting the scene of a demonstration, he confirmed. Bingol province’s police chief was seriously wounded in the attack. Five “terrorists” suspected of gunning them down were themselves killed by the security forces, Ala added. “This spiral of violence should immediately be stopped,” he said in a statement in Ankara. “Everyone should do their part to put an end to these incidents. We should all stand in solidarity with each other.” Ala said that clashes broke out in 35 cities, and 221 civilians and 139 security officials including police were wounded. Over 1,000 people were detained and 58 people have formally been arrested for their involvement in the protests which caused damage to 212 schools, he said. The violence, which has been concentrated in south-eastern Turkey but also flared in Istanbul and Ankara, has been among the worst rioting seen in the country in years.

Headline:  Indian Navy Puts Warships On High Alert Following Karachi’s Naval Dockyard Attack: Report

India’s navy is preparing for a terror attack by placing its warships on high alert following an attempt last month by al-Qaida’s South Asia wing to hijack a Pakistani navy frigate, The Indian Express reported Friday, citing military sources. The newly created group reportedly attempted to seize the Pakistani naval ship to fire rockets at U.S. vessels in the Arabian Sea. Indian naval commanders have been ordered to watch for any unusual movements by Pakistani warships operating in the Indian Ocean, sources told The Indian Express. They also reportedly said that commanders have been asked to guard against strikes involving boats equipped with explosives. “The Navy has repeatedly rehearsed for terror attacks on the high seas since 26/11… but the prospect that a Pakistani warship might go rogue and stage a sudden attack is a new order of threat altogether,” Commodore C Uday Bhaskar, a naval analyst said, according to The Indian Express. He was referring to the attacks of Nov. 26, 2008, on various high-profile targets in the city of Mumbai, including a Jewish synagogue. Earlier this month, a dossier released online showed al-Qaida claiming that the attack on the Karachi naval facility on Sept. 6 by one of their two assault teams was intended to capture PNS Aslat, a Chinese-made F-22 frigate inducted into the Pakistani navy last year.

Pyongyang had warned of “catastrophic” consequences if Seoul allowed the activists to go ahead. The two sides exchange periodic fire across their disputed western maritime border but incidents on land are rare. South Korea’s Yonhap news agency, citing military officials, said the North fired towards the balloons and South Korea responded after some shots landed south of the border. There was no immediate information on whether there were any casualties. Initial reports spoke of artillery fire but Reuters news agency, citing Defence Ministry officials, said that it was gunfire that was exchanged.

Headline: Fears of global Ebola outbreak spread across continents

Headline: Ebola is ‘entrenched and accelerating’ in West Africa

Headline: Ebola toll passes 4,000, says World Health Organization

Fears of a global Ebola outbreak spread yesterday as French officials sealed off a building with 60 people inside, an Australian nurse was tested for the disease and airplane cleaners went on strike in New York. In France, police imposed a lock-down on a social services centre in a town near Paris after four people who arrived from Guinea this month fell ill with headaches and fever. Officials in Cergy Pontoise, northwest of the capital, later said that the fears that the four were suffering from Ebola were a false alarm and the nearly 60 others inside were allowed to leave. But the drastic reaction of the authorities in France, which has not reported any cases of Ebola, indicated the scale of concerns gripping officials across several continents. There were also fears that the disease may have reached the far side of the world after an Australian nurse who treated Ebola patients while working for the International Red Cross in Sierra Leone developed a fever following her return. More than 8,000 people in West Africa have so far officially been diagnosed with Ebola and the fatality rate is nearly 50 per cent. But the World Health Organisation believes that the true tally of infected and dead is much higher. Meanwhile, the first trial of an Ebola vaccine in Africa started in Mali with the vaccination of three health care workers The vaccine, one of several now being tested, was developed at the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a consortium led by the University of Maryland is carrying out the trial.

Headline: Super Typhoon Vongfong: Japan Braces For Strongest Storm Of The Year As It Moves North

Japan is bracing for its strongest storm of the year, super Typhoon Vongfong, which is moving north with the threat of strong winds and torrential rain, media reports said Friday. The super typhoon is reportedly following the path of the deadly Typhoon Phanfone, which reportedly claimed the lives of more than nine people in Japan on Monday. Vongfong is reportedly expected to make landfall on Okinawa, an island chain about 1,000 miles southwest of Tokyo, on late Saturday or early Sunday, BBC reported. The typhoon is reportedly carrying winds up to 160 miles per hour. Vongfong, which has been labeled a Category 4 typhoon by Tropical Storm Risk, which predicts storms worldwide, is expected to weaken to a Category 3 storm by Saturday and to Category 1 before hitting the western island of Kyushu on Sunday, Reuters reported. “There is no question that it is an extremely large, extremely powerful typhoon,” an official at Japan’s Meteorological Agency, or JMA, told Reuters. “It’s the strongest storm we’ve had this year, definitely, although it has lost some strength from its peak.”

Headline:  White House: Our ‘Values’ Built Iron Dome

The tit for tat between Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and the White House on building in Givat Hamatos continued Monday. In response to criticism of the US in an interview program Sunday, the White House on Monday slammed Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, saying that his criticism of American values was out of place. The criticism of America for its concern over Israel’s construction in Jerusalem was “odd,” said White House press secretary Josh Earnest. “When it comes to American values, it’s American values that led to this country’s unwavering support of Israel,” Earnest said. “It’s American values that have led us to fund an Iron Dome system” which protected Israeli cities from attacks by Hamas terrorists during Operation Protective Edge. On Sunday, Netanyahu gave Israel’s side of the Jerusalem building controversy in an interview on the CBS news program Face the Nation. Netanyahu said that the criticism of Israel’s plans to build in Givat Hamatos, a Jerusalem neighborhood, was “baffling. It’s against the American values. And it doesn’t bode well for peace,” Netanyahu said. “The idea that we’d have this ethnic purification as a condition for peace, I think it’s anti-peace.

Headline:     Calls for a Second Non-Muslim Gate to Temple Mount

A document published by Galei Tzahal (IDF Radio) on Monday morning reveals that the Tourism Ministry is considering opening the Cotton Merchant’s Gate to the Temple Mount for Jewish visitors and tourists. As the status quo stands, the Mughrabi Gate is the only point of entrance for Jews in visiting the holiest site in Judaism, and that point of access has repeatedly been targeted by Arab rioters for attacks as a means to force the closure of the site to Jews. The large number of Jews and tourists trying to visit the holy site has led to long lines at the lone non-Muslim gate to the Temple Mount, which is located by the Kotel (Western Wall). Due to the backlog, the Tourism Ministry is apparently considering measures such as opening an additional gate. Yehuda Glick, head of the LIBA Movement for Freedom of Movement on the Temple Mount, told Galei Tzahal that the status quo must be changed urgently. “There are 11 entrances to the Temple Mount, ten of them open to Muslims, but only one open to tens of thousands of tourists and Jews who want to enter the Temple Mount,” said Glick. “Each day the numbers waiting on line increase…this gate doesn’t meet the needs.” The document was drafted in January, but the Tourism Ministry says it was not advanced mainly due to opposition by security sources to the move, given that it would require a heavy increase in security and likely spark further rioting and violence by Arab visitors to the Temple Mount. That violence has already been reaching a peak in the “silent intifada,” with Arab mobs two weeks ago on Wednesday ahead of the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashana) launching rocks and fireworks at police as soon as the Mughrabi Gate was opened.

Headline:    Hamas forms new plainclothes security force modeled after Iran’s Basij

Hamas has been forming a new security unit in the Gaza Strip. Palestinian sources said Hamas has been recruiting a militia force that would maintain regime protection. The sources said the militia, trained in light weapons, was meant to free Hamas’ military wing from engaging with civilians. “Hamas is following the Iranian model in which plainclothes forces are used to quell dissent,” a source said. The sources said the new Hamas force was dubbed the Popular Army. They said the so-called army was meant to work with Izzedin Kassam Brigades, which directed the Hamas war against Israel in July and August 2014. The force, meant to contain thousands of members, has been recruited by Hamas in wake of the 50-day war. The sources said Hamas officers were organizing militia units in every major city and town in the Gaza Strip. The sources said the Popular Army was meant to protect Hamas’ interests should the Palestinian Authority take over the Gaza Strip. They said the army was modeled after Iran’s Basij, a force of students sworn to defend the Teheran regime.

Headline:     Palestinian unity Cabinet to meet in Gaza

The Palestinian unity government will hold its first Cabinet meeting in Gaza this week, a key step towards taking charge of reconstruction efforts in the war-battered territory, a senior official said on Monday. The Cabinet will convene on Thursday, said Deputy Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa, three days before an international pledging conference where the Palestinian government will seek $4 billion (Dh14.6 billion) in aid for Gaza, hit hard after Israel’s 50-day assault this summer. Donor countries view the unity government of independent experts, led by Western-backed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, as key to any reconstruction plans. Hamas, which is shunned as a terrorist group by the international community, has governed Gaza for the past seven years. The purpose of the Gaza meeting is to “see the situation on the ground and to send a message to the donors’ conference that the government is ready to start reconstruction soon,” Mustafa said.

Headline:     IDF fires on alleged infiltrators from Lebanon

The U.N. peacekeeping force in Lebanon has launched an investigation into the shooting of a Lebanese soldier, saying the incident was a violation of Resolution 1701 that brought the 2006 Israeli- Lebanon conflict to an end. In a statement, the U.N. Interim Force in Lebanon said the shooting incident that took place in the Shebaa Farms area of south Lebanon at around 2 p.m. Sunday left a Lebanese soldier wounded. It said both the Israeli and Lebanese sides were coordinating fully with UNIFIL to prevent similar incidents. Israeli soldiers fired at a Lebanese Army post in the Shebaa Farms area near the border Sunday, wounding one soldier, the Army said in a statement. A security source said Zakaria Hamza al-Masri was shot in the hand, prompting troops to return fire. In a statement posted to Twitter, the Israeli military claimed it shot at two people it discovered “infiltrating Israeli territory from Lebanon.” “The suspects escaped north, returning to Lebanon,” it added. The Army is coordinating with UNIFIL to investigate the incident, the statement said, after taking defensive measures.

Headline:   Al-Kataeb Calls for a ‘Major Operation’ to Close The Eastern Border, Protect It

At least 16 insurgents from Syria’s Al-Qaida wing Nusra Front were killed in clashes with Shi’ite group Hezbollah in eastern Lebanon on Sunday after launching a major offensive, a source close to Hezbollah said. Hundreds of the Sunni Muslim insurgents attacked at least 10 Hezbollah bases along a mountainous range close to the Syrian border, and killed two Hezbollah fighters, in the latest spillover of violence from the civil war next door. “There are at least 16 dead from Nusra Front,” the source said. “Fighters from Hezbollah in the Bekaa region are joining the areas where the clashes are,” he added, referring to the region stretching across eastern Lebanon. Hezbollah had issued a call on Sunday to its fighters to defend the area, the source close to Hezbollah and other security officials said. They say Nusra Front has so far failed to control any of the positions it attacked. Earlier officials put the death toll at eight and said it was expected to rise. They said fighters from Islamic State, another insurgent group based in Syria, were also involved in the clashes but the source close to Hezbollah said only Nusra Front appeared to have taken part. The attacks took place in a large area of territory stretching from south of the town of Baalbek up to areas close to the border town of Arsal. Meanwhile, the Al-Kataeb party called for the implementation of a “major operation” on Monday to close the border between Lebanon and Syria after the violent clashes between Hizbullah and al-Nusra Front.

Headline: Sinai Jihadist Group Kills 4 More ‘Collaborators’

Headline:  Ansar and ISIL, step up attacks in Sinai, near Egypt-Libyan border

The Egyptian jihadist group Ansar Bayt Al-Maqdis on Sunday decapitated three people and shot a fourth on accusations of “collaborating” with Israel’s Mossad spy agency and the Egyptian army, the Al-Ahram news website reported, citing a video published on online jihadist forums. The group published a previous decapitation video of four others in August who they said had provided information that helped an Israeli drone strike kill three of the group’s members in July. The Aswat Masriya news website, founded by Reuters, reported that the video showed “confessions” of three persons and the shooting of another along with the destruction of his house. The video also featured searches conducted by the group investigating passing cars and looking for “agents of the apostate army,” Aswat Masriya said. Sinai-based Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis has killed hundreds of Egyptian soldiers and police over the last year and beheaded several people in recent weeks, saying they were spies for Israeli intelligence. It has carried out several similar beheadings of alleged “collaborators”, a method used by the “Islamic State” (IS or ISIS) group which has taken over large parts of Iraq and Syria. On Thursday, the Egyptian Army eliminated a major terror leader in Ansar Bayt Al-Maqdis.

More than 2,000 Syrian Kurds including women and children are being evacuated from border town of Kobani after Islamic State militants who have besieged the town for nearly three weeks have advanced towards the city center, a translator for the leading Kurdish political group in Syria told Reuters on Monday. “We can hear the sound of clashes in the street,” Parwer Ali Mohamed, a translator for the Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD) said over the phone, en route to Turkey. Al-Qaida offshoot Islamic State is trying to seize the predominantly Kurdish border town of Kobani and has ramped up its offensive in recent days despite being targeted by U.S.-led coalition led air strikes aimed at halting its progress. A black flag belonging to Islamic State was visible from across the Turkish border atop a four-storey building close to the scene of some of the most intense clashes in recent days. Local sources inside Kobani confirmed the group had planted its flag but said that Kurdish forces had repelled their advances so far. “ISIL have only planted a flag on one building on the eastern side of town,” said Ismail Eskin, a journalist in the town. “That is not inside the city, it’s on the eastern side. They are not inside the city. Intense clashes are continuing.”

Syria Headline:    SYRIA- Russian intelligence center captured

Opposition forces on Monday seized control of new sites in the governorate of Daraa, south of Syria, as part of a plan to open a way to break the siege on western Ghouta areas, on the outskirts of Damascus. According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, based in London, heavy clashes are raging between the Syrian troops and allied fighters on one hand and the Islamic Brigade and the Qaeda-linked Al-Nusra Front on the other in the vicinity of the Jadya village in Daraa. The opposition fighters controlled the two posts of Al-A’laf and Al-Ruba’i near the town of Zamrin, which they had already seized. At least five opposition fighters were killed. The regime’s troops, meanwhile, controlled Al-Dakhakniya neighborhood on the capital’s outskirts. A military source told the official Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) that the regime forces grabbed the Al-Dakhakniya in Damascus countryside. In the meantime, the regime’s fighter jets dropped barrel bombs on the towns of Ankhel and Salmin, both in Daraa, but no casualties have been reported. In the northern governorate of Aleppo, heavy clashes have been taking place since Monday dawn between the opposition Islamist fighters and the regime’s forces supported by allies. The Observatory said an explosion had been heard near the town of Haresta in the Damascus countryside today, coinciding with raids by the regime’s fighter jets on areas in the vicinity of the premises of the Air Force Intelligence in the area. On October 5, 2014 the rebels of the FSA captured a joint Russian-Syrian centre of radio and electronic intelligence (the so-called Center-C) located on Mountain Tal al-Hara, near Daraa, in southern Syria, near the Syrian-Israeli demarcation line”, says the Center for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies.

Iraq Headline:  Town falls to Islamic State in Iraq’s Anbar province

Islamic State fighters stormed a town in Iraq’s western Anbar province on Saturday, its latest conquest in the desert region where it has chalked up a string of victories, a military official and people fleeing the scene said. Islamic State seized the town of Kubaisa two days after the fall of the nearby town of Hit as the group sought to consolidate control in towns west of Anbar’s capital Ramadi. The fall of Kubaisa jeopardizes the strategic Ain al-Asad military base, which allows Iraqi forces to send troops and supplies to defend the Haditha dam further west where a small number of Sunni tribes and government forces are fending off Islamic State forces. Ain al-Asad lies beyond both Hit and Kubaisa. At least two civilians were killed and six others wounded in Kubaisa, said an official at the hospital in Hit.

ISIS fighters recaptured parts of the Iraqi town of Dhuluiya Sunday, pushing back security forces who had only recently won control, a defense ministry source told NBC News. The swift counterattack enabled the militants to retake northern and western sections of the town, which is about 50 miles south of Tikrit. Dhuluiya was only liberated from ISIS for a short time, although it was unclear for exactly how long. Iraq’s defense ministry said their forces had helped Sunni Jubouri tribe members and Shia militia groups push the extremists out on Friday. A defense ministry source told NBC News it took place on Saturday. As ISIS fighters forced their way back into Dhuluiya, at least two tribal fighters were killed, seven policemen wounded and four police vehicles destroyed, Reuters reported. On Saturday, ISIS fighters also seized the town of Kubaisa and attacked the Shi-ite town of Balad, Reuters said.

Iraq Headline: Beyond The Islamic State: Iraq’s Sunni Insurgency

The Islamic State of Iraq and al Sham (ISIS) is not the only violent group opposed to the government of Iraq. Groups ranging from Salafist-jihadist to Sunni nationalist have also been mobilized against Baghdad since at least 2013. They remain a threat to the government even if ISIS is removed, especially if the core concerns of Iraqi Sunnis remain unaddressed by the Iraqi government. The primary grievances of most Iraqi Sunnis include the integration of Shi‘a militias into the Iraqi Security Forces (ISF), attacks by the ISF in Sunni civilian areas, and political exclusion in Baghdad.  Some of these groups, particularly the General Military Council of Iraqi Revolutionaries (GMCIR), have cooperated with ISIS in its campaign to expel the ISF from parts of Iraq. Nevertheless, most of them do not share ISIS’s long-term objectives for Iraq. Each group has come into direct confrontation with ISIS in 2014. Some of these groups may turn and fight ISIS, but the Iraqi government will not find them an an acceptable partner because they oppose the Shi’a government in Baghdad. In fact, where ISIS is degraded by military action, these groups may seek to fill the vacuum and continue to challenge the ISF for control of Iraq’s Sunni heartland.  The success of a ground war against ISIS in Iraq depends upon the Sunni population. This population, mostly behind the ISIS control line, is more proximate to the influence of ISIS and Sunni insurgent groups than to the Iraqi state or the U.S.-led counter-ISIS coalition. A strategy to destroy ISIS requires that these competing influences be outmatched to such a degree that the Sunni population once more decides to side with the Iraqi government to fight ISIS on behalf of the state. A military campaign to destroy ISIS that does not treat this condition will accelerate Iraq’s descent into a sectarian civil war.

Headline: Biden comment shakes US-Arab alliance against ISIS

Turkish Kurds and refugees from fighting in Syria have clashed with Turkish security forces on the border between the two countries. Troops used tear gas and water cannon to disperse protesters angry at the situation in Syria, where IS militants are closing in on the town of Kobane. Meanwhile unconfirmed reports say at least 35 militants were killed in US-led air strikes over northern Syria. They come amid a Turkish-US row over alleged support for Syrian militants. On Friday US Vice-President Joe Biden criticised Turkey and US allies in the Arab world for supporting Sunni militant groups such as Islamic State, prompting a sharp response from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. “If Mr Biden used such language, that would make him a man of the past for me,” he told a news conference in Istanbul. “No-one can accuse Turkey of having supported any terrorist organisation in Syria, including IS.” Oct. 4, 2014

Headline: Report: Islamic State is hatching plan to gain Iranian nuclear secrets

The British newspaper The Sunday Times reported on Sunday morning that Islamic State is calling on its members to brace for war with Iran in order to take over its nuclear secrets. The newspaper cited a document believed to have been written by top Islamic State member Abdullah Ahmed al-Meshedani, a member of the group’s highly secretive six-man war cabinet.
According to the Times‘ report, the so-called manifesto was uncovered when Iraqi forces raided a home of a senior official of the jihadist group. The document is allegedly being looked into by western security personnel, who have so far deemed it authentic, according to the newspaper. The jihadist organization plans to pay off Russia, the document states, exchanging its control of Anbar province’s vast gas fields for information on Iran’s nuclear program. The commander behind the manifesto also wants Russia to denounce its support for Iran and Syrian President Bashar Assad. The Times story is not the first report of the Islamic State’s desire to obtain non-conventional weapons.

Headline: Province of Chechnya. Video refutes minions’ version of ‘preventing terrorist attack’ in capital

A suicide bomber has blown himself up in the Chechen capital Grozny, also killing five police officers and wounding at least 12 other people. The attack took place outside a hall where a concert marking Grozny’s City Day was about to take place. An interior ministry statement said police were searching a “suspicious” young man when he detonated a device. Grozny was ravaged by two wars between Russia and Chechen separatists but has been relatively calm in recent years. The Russian statement said that police officers on duty at the event “noticed a suspicious young man near metal detectors set up at the concert hall”. “When the police decided to search him and establish his identity, the man blew himself up,” it said. The bomber was identified as 19-year-old Opti Mudarov, a resident of Grozny. The ministry said he had disappeared two months ago and had had no contact with his family since then. There has been no information about any civilian casualties. This was a high-profile and symbolic target. This year, Grozny City Day celebrations coincide with the birthday of Chechen President Ramzan Kadyrov. He recently asserted that extremist Islamic insurgents – who carried out major bomb attacks in Russia in the run-up to the Winter Olympics – were no longer a threat in Chechnya, and no longer recruiting.

Headline:   Iran and U.N. nuclear watchdog to meet on Tuesday: IRNA

Two workers are dead after a fire and explosion at a military explosives facility that’s part of Iran’s Parchin nuclear complex, reports say. The fire occurred in an “explosive materials production unit” Sunday, the BBC reported Monday, citing the semi-official Iranian Students News Agency (ISNA). A pro-opposition website reported a large blast near the Parchin military site, southeast of Iran’s capital Tehran, but that has not yet been confirmed. Parchin has been linked to Iran’s controversial nuclear program. Iran has denied the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) access to the complex since 2005. Pro-reform  website Sahamnews said the explosion was so intense, it shattered windows of buildings as far as 9 miles away. “Unfortunately, due to the incident, two workers of this production unit lost their lives,” ISNA reported, quoting Iran’s defense industries organization. There were no further details.

Headline:  ISIS Gains Ground – in Libya

Violence continued to rock Benghazi on Saturday, with 14 soldiers killed and 50 wounded in two days of fighting. The troops, members of renegade general Khalifa Haftar’s Operation Dignity campaign, were killed in clashes with Islamic State supporters Ansar al-Shariah and the Islamist coalition Benghazi Revolutionaries’ Shura Council (BRSC), who have been fighting for control of the city for months. Mohamed al-Hejazi, a spokesman for Haftar, said the Islamists’ offensive on the Benina airport outside Benghazi had been stopped with the help of air power. “They tried taking the airport, but we won’t allow this,” he said. Islamist groups have already taken over a number of army bases in Benghazi and there have been reports of sporadic violence across the city. Meanwhile, The Ansar al-Sharia terror group, affiliated with ISIS, has declared authority during the last several days over the coastal city of Darna, Libya. Darna, while seemingly any other city in northern Africa, is located strategically between Benghazi and the Egyptian border – just 289 km (179 miles) and 333 km (206 miles), respectively.

Headline:   Op-Ed: ISIS Will Try for Tunisia Next

For the last two years, a group of Jihadists in the border areas between Tunisia and Libya are sporadically destroying Tunisian army vehicles and killing a good many of their occupants. This group calls itself – charmingly – “The Uqba ben Nafi Brigade”. Its Jihadist agenda has been known from the first, as has its ability to recruit fighters, equip itself with varied weapons and sow fear and trembling in its ever-widening surroundings. The Brigade is seen as part of the widespread and familiar “Al Qaeda of the Islamic Magreb” – Al Qaeda’s North African branch. Except that recently the group’s affiliation has been called into question, because information has begun filtering down claiming that it is now  swearing allegiance to Caliph Abu Bakr el Baghdadi of Islamic State. This possibility is important because of the existing split beween Al Qaeda and its leader Ayman al-Zawahiri on the one side and Islamic state and its leader El Baghdadi on the other.

The protesters accused New Delhi of failing to provide adequate relief to tens of thousands of displaced flood victims.

Among the protesters are many who are reviving decades-old resentment and calling for independence in the region.

Some protesters are suggesting that the Beijing government is paying triad gangs to attack the protesters. Triads are sometimes referred to as “the Chinese Mafia.” They’re families of organized crime gangs involved in armed robbery, racketeering, smuggling, narcotics trafficking, prostitution, gambling and even contract murder. Their roots go back 1000 years to Buddhist (White Lotus) secret societies that originally were political. But over the centuries they morphed into organized crime families. They were given the name “Triad” by the British because of a triangular symbol that they use. They are mainly centered in China, Hong Kong and Macao, but they’ve spread to other countries as well, including the United States. There are Triad members featured in the video game Grand Theft Auto.
Protesters are responding to threats by the Hong Kong government by promising to allow government buildings, schools and businesses to open on Monday, while allowing peaceful protests to continue.

Scientists have used Ebola disease spread patterns and airline traffic data to predict a 75 percent chance the virus could be imported to France by October 24, and a 50 percent chance it could hit Britain by that date. Those numbers are based on air traffic remaining at full capacity. Assuming an 80 percent reduction in travel to reflect that many airlines are halting flights to affected regions, France’s risk is still 25 percent, and Britain’s is 15 percent. “It’s really a lottery,” said Derek Gatherer of Britain’s Lancaster University, an expert in viruses who has been tracking the epidemic – the worst Ebola outbreak in history. The deadly epidemic has killed more than 3,400 people since it began in West Africa in March and has now started to spread faster, infecting almost 7,200 people so far. Nigeria, Senegal and now the United States – where the first case was diagnosed on Tuesday in a man who flew in from Liberia – have all seen people carrying the Ebola haemorrhagic fever virus, apparently unwittingly, arrive on their shores.

Headline: Supreme Court paves way for gay marriage in several states, leaves issue unresolved nationally

The Supreme Court on Monday turned away appeals from five states looking to prohibit gay marriage, effectively legalizing same-sex marriage in those states and likely others — but also leaving the issue unresolved nationally. The justices rejected appeals from Indiana, Oklahoma, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin. The court’s order immediately ends delays on gay marriage in those states. Couples in six other states — Colorado, Kansas, North Carolina, South Carolina, West Virginia and Wyoming — also should be able to get married in short order. Those states would be bound by the same appellate rulings that were put on hold pending the Supreme Court’s review. That would make same-sex marriage legal in 30 states and the District of Columbia. In Utah, Gov. Gary Herbert said he was “surprised” and “disappointed” by Monday’s development. But the Republican governor said that “while I continue to believe that the states do have the right to define marriage and create laws regarding marriage, ultimately we are a nation of laws, and we here in Utah will uphold the law.” With no other state cases currently pending before the court, the decision to reject the appeals means the justices — for now — will not be considering the question of same-sex marriage nationwide.

But God provide lamb. And now our all sacrifices has been completed in Jesus Christ. We not need to do any sacrifice. Just believe in Jesus and His death on Cross. This is difficult for Muslim to listen. But this is truth. Please pray for me. May God give me wisdom and encouragement when i talk any Muslim about Jesus.

yom-kippur-greeting

DID YOU KNOW?

Today, beginning at sundown, is Yom Kippur?  Yom Kippur is the 2nd of the Fall Feasts and ends the Day’s of Awe which began on Rosh Hashana.  The Days of Awe are when you are to repent of your sins from the previous year- both to God and to others whom you may have sinned against.  And then on Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement), God forgives your sins and writes your name in the Book of Life for the following year. That is why the customary greeting on Yom Kippur is “g’mar chatimah tovah, “May your final sealing (in the Book of Life) be good.” It is the one time a year that even non-religious Jews will go to synagogue and participate in prayer.

And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying: “Also the tenth day of this seventh month shall be the Day of Atonement. It shall be a holy convocation for you; you shall afflict your souls (deny yourselves), and offer an offering made by fire to the LORD. And you shall do no work on that same day, for it is the Day of Atonement, to make atonement for you before the LORD your God. For any person who is not afflicted in soul on that same day shall be cut off from his people. And any person who does any work on that same day, that person I will destroy from among his people. You shall do no manner of work; it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings. It shall be to you a Sabbath of solemn rest, and you shall afflict your souls; on the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you shall celebrate your Sabbath.” Leviticus 23:26-32

We know that the Days of Awe are a good time to follow scripture and examine ourselves. Since believers in Christ have the Holy Spirit in their hearts, we confess our sins as they occur and stand on the promise “That if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us of all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9) Believers in Jesus Christ (Yeshua Messiah), even Jewish believers, can celebrate God’s holiday with prayers for Israel and of thankfulness for the completed work we have received in Christ’s work on the cross.  Our names are PERMANENTLY written in the Lamb’s Book of Life and it is a time of joy!

Headline: Sweden breaks EU ranks to recognise Palestine

The new left-wing government in Sweden has promised to recognise Palestine, amid harsh EU criticism of Israel’s latest settlement expansion. The PM, Stefan Lofven, made the pledge at his inuaguration speech in parliament on Friday (3 October). “The conflict between Israel and Palestine can only be solved by a two-state solution, negotiated in accordance with international law. It must guarantee both the Palestinians’ and Israelis’ legitimate demands for national sovereignty and security”, he said. “A two-state solution requires mutual recognition and a will to peaceful co-existence. Sweden will therefore recognise the state of Palestine”. The step is the first ever by a member of the EU.

Headline: UK parliament to vote on Palestinian statehood

The UK parliament will be voting on a motion to recognise the state of Palestine alongside the state of Israel on 13 October. The application proposed by parliamentary backbenchers was originally presented to the Backbench Business Committee (BBC) on 8 April, but was not given debate time in parliament until recently. The landmark motion which says: “This House believes the Government should recognise the state of Israel alongside the state of Palestine,” is aimed to push the British government to recognise Palestinian national rights and their rights to self-determination, said Chris Doyle, director of the Council for Arab-British Understanding Caabu. Experts say that the UK parliamentary vote bares a significant symbolic meaning: “It is likely to be a moral victory that may force the UN members to follow,” said international law specialist Toby Cadman, a barrister at the Nine Bedford Row International Chambers of London. “The vote in the lower house is hugely important and is likely to force a vote in the House of Lords as well,” he added. Cadman believes there is a strong chance the motion will pass – citing the recent 51-day Gaza war and the increasing support for Palestine since the UN upgraded the country’s status in 2012.

Headline: Israel on edge as Yom Kippur, Id al-Adha overlap for first time in more than 30 years

Israeli police were on high alert Friday to avert possible clashes as Jews and Muslims prepare to observe their faith’s major holidays of Yom Kippur and Id al-Adha, which overlap this year for the first time in more than three decades. Reinforced police contingents had been deployed across Israel as a precaution against sectarian violence, said police spokeswoman Luba Samri. Concerns were particularly high in the four Israeli cities with significant Muslim minorities: Jerusalem and Jaffa, as well as in Haifa and Acre. In a related development, the military said it had closed off the West Bank and the Gaza Strip as a general security measure, a common practice during major Jewish holidays. On Yom Kippur, Israel comes to a virtual standstill. Businesses and airports shut down and TV and radio stations go silent. The holiday begins at sunset Friday and ends Saturday night.

Headline: Explosion Near IDF Forces on Syria Border

An explosion was heard close to an IDF post near the Syrian border in the Golan Heights on Friday morning, patrols told Israeli media. The blast caused no injury or damage. IDF officials are scanning the area to determine the cause of the blast, and to check whether it is spillover from Syria’s civil war or a failed attempt to fire on Israel, according to Yediot Aharonot. One military source told Channel 10 in the minutes after the attack that the IDF estimates that it is, in fact, an attempt to fire a charge at Israeli forces. The IDF has yet to confirm this, however.

Headline: Gaza Terrorists Fire Rocket into Sea in Apparent Test

Headline: Hamas Says IDF Didn’t Destroy All Terror Tunnels

Just a little over a month after the November 26 ceasefire with Israel that ended Hamas’s terror war and the 50-day Operation Protective Edge, terrorists in Gaza fired a rocket into the sea Friday morning. No one was wounded by the projectile, which Walla! speculates  was part of a missile test to check the capabilities of the terror group’s lethal arsenal. The last projectile to leave Gaza, if the two terrorist infiltration attempts into Israel last month aren’t counted, was a mortar round fired on the Eshkol region by terrorists in mid-September. Hamas, which breached numerous ceasefires during the operation in July and August, denied responsibility for the mortar fire and claimed to have arrested those responsible. If the rocket is a “test” as expected, it may indicate that industry is kicking back into life even as Hamas approaches renewed Cairo truce talks with Israel in the last week of October. Hamas has also received large quantities of rockets from Iran, among other suppliers.

Headline: Gantz Warns Hezbollah: ‘We Can Hit You Like Gaza’

IDF Chief of Staff Benny Gantz summarized Operation Protective Edge on Friday, in his first official interview since the 50-day operation ended in a ceasefire with the Hamas terrorist organization on August 26. The chief of staff reminded that Gaza is not the only front troubling Israel, and that Israel’s other enemies – such as the Lebanese-based Iran-proxy terror group Hezbollah – would do well to learn from the capabilities demonstrated by the IDF in the recent campaign. “(Hezbollah leader Hassan) Nasrallah sees that the Israeli society didn’t break apart and was ready to pay the price (in Gaza), and that we know to do in Lebanon what we did in Gaza,” warned the IDF head. While the Arab world has been engaged in bloody infighting, from Iraq and Syria to Sinai and many other places as well, the common enemy remains Israel, reminds Gantz. “Our enemies are currently busy with other problems, but who is next in line for all of them? Us!” stated Gantz. “If Hezbollah weren’t busy now doing what Iran tells them to do in Syria who is their fixed enemy? Us.” “If terrorist forces in the Golan stop dealing with (Syrian President Bashar) Assad, who’s their enemy? If the thousands of refugees in Jordan need to act, who will they do that against? Will the jihadists in the Sinai only act against Egypt?” asked Gantz rhetorically. Another farther enemy came up as well, namely Iran, which has been quietly advancing its nuclear program even amid nuclear talks with world powers. On this front as well, Gantz said “we are ready to act in Iran, and we should remain realistic about this threat which still exists.”

Headline: PM: No chance for peace deal if Israel sued for war crimes

Headline: PA envoy: We’ll join ICC if no Israel pullout deadline

A Palestinian push to try Israeli officials for war crimes at a United Nations tribunal would end any chance of reaching a peace deal, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said. Netanyahu spoke to Army Radio on Friday, a day after the Palestinian Authority’s envoy to the United Nations said his government would join the International Criminal Court if the UN Security Council refuses to set a deadline for Israel to withdraw from all Palestinian territories. “We may end up there,” Netanyahu said of the prospect of war crimes charges being brought against Israel at the Hague-based UN tribunal. “If Abu Mazen attempts it, this will have dire consequences,” he added, using another name for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas (meaning father of Mazen). “He could bring The Hague to do it, bringing us to the destruction of any chance of a sane peace deal.”

Headline:Arab MK Calls for Establishment of ‘United Islamic States’

After Arab MK Mohammed Barakeh (Hadash) said Israel is like the Islamic State (ISIS) terror group, and Palestinian Authority (PA) chief negotiator Saeb Erekat likened the Jewish state and “Islamic state,” Arab MK Ibrahim Sarsour (Ra’am-Ta’al) has now raised the bar. Sarsour, who heads his Arab Islamist party, was asked what its position is on ISIS. “We think that the United States, the Saudi kingdom, Israel and their confederates in the region and the world are crueler than ISIS,” said Sarsour. The comparison comes despite the fact that not only has ISIS been conducting very public beheadings of a string of captive westerners, it has been committing horrific atrocities and torture against religious minorities and Muslims it disagrees with throughout the parts of Syria and Iraq under its iron grasp. Sarsour likewise attacked the division of the Islamic and Arab world into dozens of states, calling it the implementation of “colonialist initiatives” and the “Sykes Picot initiative,” favoring a united Islamic caliphate instead. “We support one united state in the Arab world as preparation for one united state in the entire Islamic world of 1.4 billion people,” said Sarsour, terming the first as the “United Arab States” and the latter stage as the “United Islamic States.” “I want a civilian state that will operate according to the path of the prophets and caliphates that go on the upright path,” concluded the Arab member of the Knesset of Israel.

Headline: Russia vital in dealing with regional challenges — Jordanian King

His Majesty King Abdullah and Russian President Vladimir Putin held a summit meeting on Thursday, during which they dealt with means to strengthen Jordanian-Russian ties, boost bilateral cooperation, and address the latest regional and international developments. In joint statements to the press ahead of the meeting, King Abdullah and President Putin underscored the strong and developing cooperation and the friendly relations between the two countries. “You know how much we value in Jordan the relationship, not only personally between you and myself, but also between our two countries, and the strength of the relationship between our two countries,” the King said. “And you know how much Jordan values the special and important role that Russia plays in our region, in the Middle East, with all the challenges that we face,” he added. Not only does Russia play a vital role in the peace process between the Israelis and the Palestinians, but it also has a critical role, “and probably the most important role”, for the future of Syria, King Abdullah noted, stressing that Jordan and Russia “stand today shoulder-to-shoulder in the fight against terrorism and extremism worldwide”. “And the world must realise that without Russia dealing with the challenges in our region, we would be a lot worse off,” the King said.

A barrel packed with 50 kilos of explosives was discovered Friday near a military checkpoint outside the northeast border town of Arsal, the Lebanese Army said in a statement. An Army unit beefed up security measures in and around the area of Ras al-Sarej on the periphery of Arsal after discovering that the barrel was filled with “explosive chemicals.” Security sources told The Daily Star that the barrel contained paint thinner, which may detonate under certain conditions. A military expert who disabled the explosives concluded that the barrel was set to be detonated remotely, the Army statement added.

Aircraft from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates joined U.S. warplanes in a new wave of bombing raids Friday against Islamic State jihadists in Syria. Coalition fighter jets and robotic drone planes conducted six strikes in Syria on Thursday and Friday, hitting militant tanks, oil refineries and a training camp, the U.S. military said. American aircraft also conducted three air raids in Iraq over the past 24 hours, including two northeast of Fallujah, Central Command said. In addition to U.S. Air Force warplanes and navy fighter jets flying off on an aircraft carrier in the Gulf, “the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates also participated in the Syria strikes.” Centcom offered no further details on the precise role of the allied aircraft in the latest strikes, and officials in the five countries that have joined the Syria operation — Bahrain, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Qatar — have been reluctant to share details of their participation.

Syria Headline:  Watching Kobane battle, Kurds lose faith in Turkey anti-IS action

Islamic State militants have advanced on the city of Kobani, threatening a siege of one of the last remaining Kurdish strongholds in Syria a day after the Turkish government won parliamentary backing for military action. Kurdish politicians reported from outside the city that there was smoke and the sound of gunfire as the extremists fired towards Kobani. Turkey’s state-run Anadolu Agency said the Islamic State started a new offensive on Kobani with heavy weapons and intense smoke was rising from the area. “This is the start of the tightening of the siege of Kobani and could eventually lead to street fights on the outskirts of the city,” said Rami Abdurrahman, head of the British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which monitors the war through a network of witnesses and activists. A spokesman for the Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) earlier said it had repelled the attack. “Our heroic fighters managed to repel at least three major attacks on east, west and southern sectors of Kobani by the terrorists,” he said. The spokesman, who declined to be quoted by name, added that fighting was continuing and that the jihadist group had been bombarding Kobani, also known as Ain al-Arab, with mortar shells since the early hours of Friday morning. Tank fire from IS militants slammed into the town on Friday, threatening to drive thousands more from their homes and deprive the Kurds of one of their few remaining strongholds in Syria. “They are firing tanks and guns toward the city,” Ismail Kaplan, a local Kurdish politician said. “Clashes are taking place just outside the city limits and they are firing into the town. We can hear big booms and see smoke billowing from buildings.”

Syria Headline: Syrian Rebels: US-Led Strikes Bolster Assad

Moderate Syrian rebel field commanders said the U.S.-led air offensive in Syria is helping President Bashar al-Assad. Abu Muhammad said he disapproves of the U.S. strategy in Syria. He warned that the U.S.-led coalition against the jihadists of the Islamic State group is bolstering Assad. Muhammad said the Syrian president has taken the opportunity of the coalition airstrikes to refocus his forces, shifting some of them from eastern Syria where they were fighting the jihadists, and reinforcing his own offensive against moderate and Islamist rebels in the key city of Aleppo. He said Syrian government airstrikes on Aleppo the past two days have increased in tempo and are terrifying.

***The Syrian News Agency appears premature in their announcement
Syrian military forces have taken control of villages in the northern part of Aleppo, Syrian state news agency SANA reported Friday. Syrian army forces “eliminated big numbers” of militants and destroyed scores of vehicles used by them in three villages in the northern countryside of Aleppo, the news agency said, citing a military source. The opposition Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported Friday that one of the seized villages, Handarat, which is crucial because it sits on a hill overlooking the only entry point into the area. The Observatory, however, later reported that rebels had retaken the hill of Handarat amid heavy clashes, which continued Friday. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which tracks violence in the country, said the army was not yet in control of the main road but that clashes centered around Handarat, a northern Aleppo district, had blocked the route. “If the army can take and hold Handarat, then Aleppo will be under siege,” Observatory head Rami Abdulrahman said by telephone.

http://news.yahoo.com/militants-seize-western-iraqi-town-hit-security-sources-093022922.html

Based on an evaluation done by the Institute for the Study of War, ISIS likely seeks to merge the efforts of these two Anbar elements and close the gap at Hit. If ISIS succeeds in this, it will isolate pro-government tribes that are fighting ISIS in Haditha and Ramadi from ISF reinforcements. It will also relieve ISIS elements in Anbar by diminishing the local population’s opportunity to resist. The ISIS offensive for Anbar is closely linked to the ISIS campaign for the Baghdad Belts. If ISIS can consolidate its core strength in Anbar, then its reinforcements that are currently augmenting attacks in this zone will likely shift to reinforce the northern and southern Baghdad Belts and prepare to attack the capital.

Headline: ISIS May Resort to Chemical Attacks, Expert Warns

ISIS is feared to be readying crude chemical weapons to use against civilians if it comes under military pressure to dislodge from territory it holds in Iraq, according to a leading British expert. “I think it is very likely ISIS will use chemical weapons, especially if things start going badly for it,” said Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, a former British colonel who has helped to provide proof that chlorine gas was used by Bashar al-Assad in Syria. “ISIS has shown intent by using chlorine a number of times on Iraqi army units already,” he told Rudaw. He is currently looking into how to provide the Iraqi army with up-to-date gas masks. “They (the militants) have also seen how effective chemical weapons have been in Iraq and have probably been on the receiving end of some of the attacks by the Syrian regime so they are well aware of the terror effect,” he added in a telephone interview. In the last couple of weeks, there appear to have been several incidents in which chlorine was used in Iraq although it was difficult to get exact confirmation, de Bretton-Gordon said.

Officials in the Philippines say reports that the Islamic State group is recruiting in the country have yet to be confirmed. But authorities remain vigilant because of concerns that certain segments of the population are at risk for falling under the terror group’s influence. An official with the Philippines Anti-Terrorism Council said several factors make the country particularly vulnerable to the pull of the Islamic State terrorist group. Assistant Secretary Oscar Valenzuela said securing entry and exit points in waters off more remote southern provinces pose a challenge for the overstretched government, while social media have been a powerful tool to convey jihadist propaganda to young people. Plus, there are about two million Philippines nationals working overseas as contract workers near the conflict zone.

Ukrainian forces clashed with pro-Russian insurgents over control of a strategic airport in the restive east Friday and traded blame over the death of a Swiss aid worker, four weeks into their shaky truce. Heavy fighting engulfed the flashpoint transport hub north of Donetsk, with blasts echoing across the largest rebel-held city throughout the day, but its status remained in dispute. Separatist fighters said they were in control of almost the entire facility, which includes an old terminal and a brand new one built at a cost of nearly $1 billion for the 2012 football European Championship. The Ukrainian military confirmed that gunmen had briefly seized the first floor of the old building, but said they had since been pushed out, even though fighting continued.

Headline:  Khamenei Calls for Muslim Unity for Israel’s ‘Annihilation’

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Friday used his annual message to Hajj pilgrims heading to Mecca to insult Israel and call for its “annihilation.” The speech comes ahead of Eid al-Adha on Friday, the Muslim holiday celebrating Abraham’s “sacrifice of Ishmael” in an appropriation of the original Torah story, and like his speech for Eid al-Fitr in July was replete with unfounded barbs hurled against the Jewish state. “The conspiring enemy is aiming to stoke the fire of a civil strife among Muslims, to misdirect the motivation for resistance and jihad and to secure the Zionist regime and the servants of Arrogance (America – ed.) – who are the real enemies,” said Khamenei referencing the bloody conflicts rocking the Muslim world. Calling for Muslim unity against Israel, the same Friday that Arab MK Ibrahim Sarsour (Ra’am-Ta’al) called for the establishment of the “United Islamic States” and bashed Israel as being “crueler than ISIS (Islamic State).” Khamenei likewise accused Israel of having “no limit or boundaries regarding viciousness, cruelty, and trampling underfoot all human standards and ethnics. Crimes, genocide, mass destruction, the killing of children, women and the homeless…they take pride in.”

Headline:   UN Nuclear Watchdog Team to Visit Tehran

A high-level U.N. nuclear watchdog team will visit Tehran for talks in coming days, Iran said on Friday, more than a month after it missed a deadline for addressing questions about its suspected atomic bomb research. Diplomats told Reuters on Thursday that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) was expected to make a new attempt soon to advance its long-running investigation into Iran’s nuclear program and that a meeting might be held in the Iranian capital early next week. Reza Najafi, Iran’s ambassador to the Vienna-based U.N. agency, said the IAEA delegation would be led by the head of its division dealing with nuclear safeguards issues, Deputy Director General Tero Varjoranta.

Headline: Libya suicide attacks kill 40 soldiers

A series of suicide bombings in Libya has left at least 40 soldiers dead, as opponents and supporters of a renegade ex-general clashed for control of a key air base in the port city of Benghazi. Al Jazeera website said four separate suicide attacks targeted the Benina air base on Thursday killing at least 40 soldiers loyal to former Gen. Khalifa Haftar and wounding dozens more. “Fighting is ongoing around the strategic Benina air base, with militias seeking to capture the base before Eid on Saturday,” he said. “The air base houses heavy weaponry and is crucial for the militias as they attempt to seize control of Benghazi,” AbdelWahed added. The Shoura Council of Benghazi Revolutionaries said it carried out the attack in conjunction with the Libya Shield brigade and Ansar Al-Sharia.

Headline:  Any Turkey military action aggression: Syrian deputy FM

Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal Miqdad has warned against any military action against the crisis-hit Arab country by neighboring Turkey. The Syrian diplomat said late on Thursday that any military action by Turkey inside Syria’s territory will be considered an act of aggression. His comments came after the Turkish parliament approved a motion allowing the government to launch attacks inside Syria and Iraq. Turkey’s 550-seat parliament voted 298-98 in favor of the motion that would provide the legal grounds for Ankara to deploy forces to Iraq and Syria. The motion will last for one year. Miqdad also called on the United Nations Security Council to hold an emergency session to condemn Turkey’s decision. The Syrian official further accused Turkey and Saudi Arabia of sending militants to Syria.

Headline: Nine UN peacekeepers killed in Mali

This morning, a convoy of MINUSMA peacekeepers from the Nigerien contingent was the target of a direct attack while travelling to Indelimane, in the Menaka-Asongo corridor. A provisional toll indicated nine deaths,” the UN mission in Mali said in a statement issued on Friday. The mission has not announced any group responsible for the fatal assault. However, a Nigerien officer from the mission said the attackers belonged to the Movement for Oneness and Jihad in West Africa (MUJAO), an al-Qaeda-linked terrorist group that has been responsible for numerous attacks in northern Mali in recent years. The UN mission in Mali was established after the UN Security Council adopted resolution 2100 on April 25, 2013. It is tasked with security-related operations in the African country.

It also allegedly features Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau, a man Nigeria’s military twice has claimed to kill in 2009 and again last year. Two weeks ago the military said they had killed in battle a Shekau lookalike who had posed in the group’s videos. “Here I am, alive and I will remain alive until the day Allah takes away my breath,” the man says in the Hausa language. “Even if you kill me … It will not stop us imposing Islamic rule … We are still in our Islamic state, reigning and teaching the Koran.” The United States still has a USD 7 million ransom on Shekau’s head, despite the death claims. The video was made available to The Associated Press through the same channels used previously and seems to show the same man claiming to be Shekau.

Headline: Two killed, ten injured in Yemen bomb blast

A bomb blast in northern Yemen has left at least two people dead and ten others injured. The attack reportedly took place in Amran Province, situated 53 kilometres (33 miles) northwest of the capital, Sana’a, on Friday after an explosive device planted inside a car was detonated in a popular local market. There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but Amran has been the scene of violent clashes between Yemen’s Ansarullah revolutionaries, and Salafists who are backed by government forces over the past weeks. This comes as Jamal Benomar, the United Nations envoy to Yemen, left Sana’a on Thursday, following weeks of unrest in the capital and the country’s failure to name a new head of government. Benomar expressed concern over the “sensitive and unpredictable” situation in Yemen, saying the only way to bring peace to the crisis-hit country is the full implementation of agreements between the revolutionaries and the government.

The Catalan government says it will push ahead with its scheduled plan to hold an independence referendum, despite a Spanish Constitutional Court order to suspend the vote. Catalan President Artur Mas established a seven-member committee late on Thursday to supervise the referendum on Catalonia’s independence from Spain which is due to be held on November 9. Earlier on Wednesday, the creation of the supervisory commission had been ratified in the Catalan parliament.

Headline:  Hong Kong Protesters Cancel Talks With Government After ‘Organized Attacks’

Pushing and yelling, hundreds of Hong Kong residents tried to force pro-democracy activists from the streets they were occupying Friday as tensions rose in the weeklong protests that have shut down parts of the city. The scuffles in Kowloon’s crowded Mong Kok district, one of several areas where protesters have camped out, were the most chaotic since police used tear gas and pepper spray last weekend to try to disperse protesters pushing for greater electoral reforms for the territory. Police were hard-pressed to keep order as the two sides tussled in a tense standoff. The visibly older people trying to force out the vastly outnumbered younger protesters were yelling, shoving and at times trying to drag them away. The protesters, led by university students, said that if authorities did not act to protect the unarmed, peaceful demonstrators, they would retract an agreement to hold talks with the city government as proposed by Hong Kong’s leader, Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying. “Stop the violence or we call off the talks,” the groups of students and other activists said in a statement. The democracy activists linked arms and held hands as they tried to stand their ground against the huge crowd. Police formed cordons and escorted some of the protesters away as hundreds of onlookers chanted, “Go home!” In Causeway Bay, another area occupied by protesters, groups of young men in face masks were forced away from the protesters by police. Police spokesman Steve Hui appealed to the members of the public to “observe the laws of Hong Kong when they are expressing their views.”

Headline: Mystery fireball lights up the Utah sky

With dazzling flashes of green, blue and white, a mysterious object lit up the Utah sky early this morning. It silently soared over the state at around 4.40am, seemingly lingering for a few seconds. But while some excitedly rushed to report a UFO, one astronomer claims it was a burning meteor that was so far away it couldn’t be heard. According to Patrick Wiggins, the NASA/JPL solar system ambassador to Utah, the variety of flashing colours is typical of a bolide meteor, which combusts at the end of its flight. It is caused by the rock cooling down as it passes through the atmosphere. Once the bolide explodes, it will likely send pieces hurling down to earth – which could be very valuable. If nearby, the sheer pace of the bolide could be so loud it could crack windows. But Wiggins explained, despite shining brighter than the moon, it was lightyears away because it was silent.

Headline: U.S. holding on to its nukes to blow up asteroids

The Government Accountability Office does its best to keep tabs on all the many moving parts of the federal government, ensuring agencies and programs are spending their money wisely, acting ethically and meeting their performance goals. Suffice to say, they’ve got their hands full. Recently, the GAO checked in on the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), which manages the U.S. atomic-weapons arsenal, to gauge their progress on various disarmament goals. The NNSA is supposed to be destroying old nuclear weapons. They’re not. But even if they’re behind schedule, they’re not without excuses. One of the reasons that a significant supply of uranium-enriched canned subassemblies (CSAs) — used to arm nuclear warheads — have yet to be disposed of, is that they’re being saved “for potential use in planetary defense against earthbound asteroids.”

Headline: US Slammed for Calling Israeli Land Purchase ‘Occupation’

Headline: France criticizes Israel’s plan to build in east Jerusalem

Harsh criticism has been sounded in several quarters for the White House condemnation of Jerusalem housing plans – especially the use of the term “occupation.” The OU (Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America) issued a statement “strongly reject[ing]” the “harsh rhetoric” employed by American officials regarding recent Jerusalem housing plans. White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said on Wednesday, “The US condemns the recent occupation of residential buildings in the neighborhood of Silwan.” He added that the new residents have an “agenda [that] only serves to escalate tensions.” The OU responded that the statement suggests that “the onus for the peace process impasse is upon Israel, when in fact it is decades of Palestinian and Arab rejectionism and incitement (such as that voiced by Palestinian President Abbas at the UN General Assembly last week) that ‘poisons the atmosphere’ for peace.” Media analyst Dr. Aaron Lerner of IMRA added that the use of the word “occupation” is not all appropriate and even dangerous.

While it may reject Israel’s existence, Hamas certainly agrees with Prime MInister Binyamin Netanyahu – and disagrees with the US State Department – that its “ultimate goal” is to establish an “Islamic state” (caliphate) over what it sees as the “occupied lands of Palestine.” In short, while the US disputes PM Netanyahu’s statement that “Hamas is ISIS, and ISIS is Hamas” – Hamas itself does not. China Weekly reported that, on Tuesday, senior Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Zahar said in a ceremony to honor police officers killed in the latest Gaza operation that “we don’t want to establish an Islamic emirate in Gaza; we want an Islamic state in all Palestine.” Al-Zahar added that if Hamas could insert some of its military assets into Judea and Samaria, “we will be able to go for a successful battle that we will win at the end.” And despite entering a “unity” government with Fatah, he promised that Hamas will stick “to the program of resistance,” adding that “during the last war on Gaza, we learned how to liberate all the occupied lands of Palestine.” On Monday, the US State Department refused to agree with Netanyahu’s UN General Assembly assertion that, “as Hamas’s charter makes clear, Hamas’s immediate goal is to destroy Israel. But Hamas has a broader objective. They also want a caliphate… So when it comes to their ultimate goals, Hamas is ISIS and ISIS is Hamas.”

Headline: Terror Attack in Samaria Thwarted by IDF

In parallel to the so-called “silent intifada” of rock and firebomb terror plaguing Jerusalem, incidents of gunfire in Judea and Samaria have been sharply increasing in recent months, following Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah faction’s declared “return to terror.” That announcement, which was made by Fatah’s “military wing,” the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, has led not only to an outpouring of attacks on Jews but also apparently to shootings between rival members of Fatah. Fatah activists were ambushed this Wednesday in a hail of gunfire in the Arab town of Beit Duqqu, located in Samaria just to the northwest of Jerusalem. The Fatah members who were fired on had taken part in a meeting to discuss disagreements in the organization regarding priorities for “action” in the Jerusalem area. One of them told the Palestinian Arab Safa news agency that additional gunfire targeted their car as it passed adjacent to the Arab town of Al Jib, also located to the northwest of Jerusalem, and that residents told them another shooting ambush was waiting for them in the village of Beit Nabala. In a separate incident a week ago, Fatah members were similarly shot at in the northern Jerusalem neighborhood of Shuafat.

Israel has been monitoring renewed rocket tests by Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Israeli military sources said Hamas has renewed the testing of extended-range surface-to-surface rockets. The sources said Hamas engineers have overseen the development of new Iranian-designed rockets in launches from the Gaza Strip into the Mediterranean Sea. “They have accelerated all efforts to rearm and develop much more powerful weapons than we have seen until now,” a source said. The sources said Hamas has so far launched five advanced rockets in tests from the Gaza coast into the Mediterranean over the last month. They said the tests appear to include that of an indigenous variant of the Syrian-origin M-302, with a range of 160 kilometers. Hamas fired several M-302s during the 50-day war with Israel in July and August 2014. The missiles reached the northern Israeli port of Haifa but did not cause casualties or significant damage. The sources said a key Hamas launching pad was in the former Jewish community of Netzarim, evacuated by Israel during its unilateral withdrawal from the Gaza Strip in 2005. They said at least five rockets were fired from Netzarim in September 2014, the first taking place days after the ceasefire with Israel. At the same time, Hamas has been restoring its missile and rocket assembly line. The sources said the effort reflected Hamas’ determination to renew fighting with Israel should the current ceasefire collapse. “Hamas seek to restore the rocket lathes, of which 50 percent were destroyed during the fighting in Gaza,” the authoritative Israel Defense magazine said. “In the IDF, they are monitoring the situation and say that these are not new rockets with new ranges.”

Headline:   Brigades of Abdullah Azzam Calls for Attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon, Urges Sunnis in Lebanese Army to Desert

Al-Qaeda’s Syrian affiliate the Nusra Front on Thursday denied that it pledged to stop executing Lebanese hostages being held near the northeast border town of Arsal and said it was not engaged in negotiations for their release. In a statement posted to Twitter, the jihadi group also said it had nothing to do with last month’s kidnapping of Lebanese soldier Kamal Hujeiri, who was released earlier this week. “What was recently mentioned by Lebanese media channels about our pledge to not kill any abducted soldier is untrue,” the extremist group wrote in their statement. Lebanese officials on Wednesday said that Nusra and ISIS pledged not to execute anymore of the 21 soldiers and policemen being held captive near Arsal during negotiations to release them. But Nusra claimed it no longer had a representatives engaged in the negotiations, accusing the Lebanese government. The jihadists refuse to negotiate a deal until “the [Syrian] refugees’ problems are resolved and the recently detained among them are released.”

Headline: Report: Western Intelligence Warns ISIL Preparing to Launch Attacks in North

Lebanon’s Army commander said he expected a renewal of clashes in northeast Lebanon, adding that the military is reinforcing its position on the hills surrounding the town of Arsal. Gen. Jean Kahwagi told Sky News Arabia that the Lebanese Army was working on impose a blockade on militants based in Arsal’s hillsides and cutting all supply routes. Meanwhile, Extremists from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant are seeking to carry out security operations in northern Lebanon, reported al-Akhbar newspaper on Thursday. Western diplomatic sources told the daily that western intelligence obtained information that ISIL-linked groups, present in the northern city of Tripoli, are preparing to carry out these attacks in an attempt to seize northern border areas. Lebanese security sources meanwhile confirmed such information, but made light of the claims that militants would take over border regions. They instead noted that the armed groups, which include Lebanese and Syrian members, are planning to launch assaults against army barracks, reported al-Akhbar. Jihadists from the al-Nusra Front and Islamic State overran in August the northeastern border town of Arsal where they clashed with the army. The fighting ended with the gunmen abducting a number of soldiers and policemen from the area. The army last week raided Syrian refugee encampments in Arsal where it arrested a number of suspects.

The fight for the Syrian Kurdish city of Kobane geared up early Thursday as Islamic State militants advanced, a monitoring group said. “Fighting intensified at dawn Thursday between Islamic State militants and the Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) at western outskirts of the city of Kobane, prompting the YPG to withdraw from the area to the outskirts of the city, while militants advanced,” the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said. The watchdog said the YPG and other Kurdish fighters were preparing for street battles amid fears that the Islamic State militants might commit massacres if they take the city. The observatory said that additional fierce fighting was taking place in the eastern and southern parts of the city, which was being shelled by Islamic State militants.

Syria Headline:   Local Dynamics Shift in Response to U.S.-Led Airstrikes in Syria

Main Points:

  • The responses of rebel groups and civilians within Syria to the U.S. and coalition airstrikes are an important indicator of the unviability of a counter-ISIS strategy that does not fully engage with the Syrian population in order to facilitate a counter-ISIS movement within Syria.
  • Jabhat al-Nusra has capitalized on civilian opposition to the airstrikes to deepen its influence and to propagate its narrative that the coalition is working alongside Assad against the revolution.
  • The reactions of a number of Islamist groups to the strikes that targeted JN on September 23 indicate their close operations with JN. If additional strikes against JN occur, JN is likely to leverage front groups to conceal the extent of their activities.
  • If airstrikes against ISIS and JN continue to alienate the Syrian population and rebel leadership, it is possible that the unrest will encourage and enable a consolidation of ISIS and JN efforts.

Syria Headline:   Hundreds Protest in Syria’s Homs after School Bombing

Hundreds of people took to the streets of the Syrian city of Homs on Thursday, demanding its governor resign after a suicide bomber killed 47 schoolchildren, a monitoring group said. The protesters vented their anger at Governor Talal al-Barazi over the deadly attack in a loyalist neighborhood of the government-controlled central city, not at the Damascus government, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said. “Hundreds of people are protesting, chanting slogans against the governor,” Observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman told AFP. “The protest began as a mass funeral for the children, but morphed into a demonstration as residents vented their rage over Wednesday’s school attack,” he added. The Observatory updated its toll to 47 children killed in the double bombing by a lone suicide attacker against the school.

Islamic State-led insurgents took control of most of the western Iraqi town of Hit in Anbar province early on Thursday, security sources and local officials said. The fall of Hit exposes the Ain al-Asad military base in the nearby town of al-Baghdadi to attack. Iraqi government forces suffered big losses after insurgents laid siege to other military camps in recent months. “Ninety percent of Hit has been overrun by militants,” said Adnan al-Fahdawi, an Anbar provincial council member, adding that the attackers were better armed than local security forces. An eyewitness speaking from Hit told Reuters: “Scores of militants can be seen in the town with their vehicles and weapons, I can hear shooting now everywhere.”

The imprisoned leader of Turkey’s outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) Abdullah Ocalan has warned that peace talks between his group and the Turkish government will come to an end if the ISIL Takfiri militants are allowed to carry out a massacre in the Syrian Kurdish town of Kobani. “If this massacre attempt achieves its goal it will end the [peace] process,” Ocalan said in a statement released on Thursday, as ISIL militants inch closer to the Kurdish town on the Turkish border. “I urge everyone in Turkey who does not want the process and the democracy voyage to collapse to take responsibility in Kobani,” he said. He added that the attempt would not only target Kurds but also would lead Turkey into a new era of insurgency. “If this attempt at a massacre succeeds, it will not only end the peace process, but will also pave the way for a new and long-lasting coup,” he said.

Headline: Army warns US military personnel on ISIS threat to family members

An Army intelligence bulletin is warning U.S. military personnel to be vigilant after Islamic State militants called on supporters to scour social media for addresses of their family members – and to “show up [at their homes] and slaughter them.” The assessment, obtained by Fox News, came from the Army Threat Integration Center which issues early warnings of criminal and terrorist threats to Army posts worldwide. The advisory warns military personnel and their families about the Islamic State, or ISIS, calling on supporters to target their homes. While there is no independent intelligence to corroborate the ISIS threats, the bulletin recommends more than a dozen precautions to military personnel to protect their homes — and their online profiles.

A mortar bomb has hit the Red Cross headquarters in the rebel-held city of Donetsk, eastern Ukraine, amid fierce fighting in the area Thursday. Ukraine separatists said one person, a Swiss national, was killed in the attack. A Reuters witness at the scene saw the body of a middle-aged man lying at the entrance to the Red Cross building. Donestk is the capital of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic, held by pro-Russian rebels. The region has seen some of the heaviest fighting during the months-long unrest in Ukraine. The purported bombing of the Red Cross headquarters comes amid fierce fighting in Donetsk on Thursday, with witnesses reporting massive explosions in the area where the city’s airport is located – another sign that a month-old ceasefire was being ignored. Russian news agencies reported the fighting near the airport, but there were no immediate casualty figures. The Ukrainian military said that pro-Russian separatists had launched fresh attempts to take the airport. “Ukrainian paratroopers heroically repelled the attack, killing seven fighters and injuring more than a dozen,” National Security Council spokesman Andriy Lysenko told the Interfax Ukraine news agency.

Headline:   Libya violence ‘threatens Tunisia stability’

Tunisia’s foreign minister has warned that turmoil in neighbouring Libya threatens to undermine his country’s still fragile democratic transition ahead of parliamentary and presidential elections. “The instability of Libya has profound repercussions on the economic, security and political affairs of Tunisia,” said Mongi Hamdi, the foreign minister for Tunisia’s caretaker interim government. “We are in the process of building a new house, a new democracy, and there is a fire next door.” The fighting between pro-government forces in Libya and a coalition of Islamist militias has continued even as representatives of the two sides meet for preliminary talks. The instability poses the greatest threat to the only post-Arab Spring country that has managed to balance competing political forces through a democratic process. The violence has displaced about one out of every five Libyans into Tunisia — 1.5 million people — straining the country’s already in crisis economy, according to Mr Hamdi. Islamist militants and arms flow over Libya’s porous border with Tunisia. At the same time, the proxy battle between regional powers supporting the competing groups in Libya has fuelled polarisation on all sides of the political divide in Tunisia.

Turkey has been under pressure to play a more active role in the US-led fight. The government dropped its reluctance to combat IS militants directly after the release of 46 hostages last month. The Turkish citizens had been held by IS in northern Iraq. However, Turkey still remains wary of retaliation by IS and also fears helping Kurds, who are fighting the militants. Turkey has fought a long civil war with its Kurdish minority. Protesters demonstrated outside parliament as the debate began but the motion was passed with 298 MPs in favour and 98 against.

The burial place of Suleyman Shah, the grandfather of Osman I (founder of the Ottoman Empire) was attacked by IS militants on Tuesday at midnight. Turkey claims its sovereignty of the tomb according to 1921 agreement signed with France, when Syria was under the French mandate. Turkey by this agreement has the right to defend the mausoleum. So, several Turkish soldiers are guarding the shrine inside the Syrian Territory. The Turkish Deputy Prime Minister, Bulent Arinc, said that the IS militants are advancing towards the tomb of Suleyman Shah in northern Syria, without providing any additional details.

The bomb had apparently been planted under a bus seat, he said, adding that police were investigating. Malik would not speculate on who could be behind the bombing but described it as “an act of terrorism.” “Those who orchestrated the attack will not go unpunished,” he said. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the explosion, which came as the Pakistani military is waging a major offensive against the Taliban and foreign militants in the North Waziristan tribal region near Afghanistan.

Headline:   AQAP Claims Ambushing, Bombing Houthis and Soldiers in Sana’a, Shabwa

Instability in Yemen, where Shiite rebels overran the capital last week, threatens regional security, interior ministers of the Sunni-dominated Gulf Cooperation Council said after an emergency meeting on Wednesday. “The GCC states will not stand idly by in the face of factional foreign intervention as Yemen’s security and the security of the GCC states are one and the same,” the ministers said in a statement after talks in the Saudi Arabian city of Jeddah. Yemeni authorities have accused Iran of backing the Houthi rebels in a similar fashion to their support for Lebanon’s Hizbullah. The GCC ministers “confirm that any threats to the security and safety of Yemen and its citizens is a threat to regional security and stability, and interests of the people.” The rebels advanced from their stronghold in northwestern mountains to the capital Sanaa last month, then seized key state installations with little or no resistance on September 21. Gulf ministers called the events “regretful” and expressed “their serious concern at the threats faced by the Yemeni government and its institutions.” Under a United Nations-brokered peace deal signed the day the rebels took control of Sanaa, they are supposed to withdraw once a new neutral prime minister is named. President Abdrabuh Mansur Hadi has so far failed to appoint a new government chief. The deal also required Hadi to name an adviser from within the rebel movement. The Gulf ministers from Bahrain, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Saudi Arabia denounced the “armed acts” that occurred. They called for seized official facilities to be returned to the Yemeni state, and expressed support for United Nations resolutions.

An estimated 4,000 anti-austerity demonstrators took to the streets of Naples on Thursday, carrying placards with caricatures of German Chancellor Angela Merkel amid tight security in the whereabouts of the ECB meeting. The Italian protesters, including a large group of students and laid-off workers, slammed the ECB for the rise in poverty and unemployment in their country. “No to the ECB, no to austerity – housing and income for all,” chanted the outraged demonstrators. Italian riot police fired tear gas and water cannon to push back the protesters who were trying to climb the wall of the building where the ECB meeting was taking place.

Headline: IMF slashes Russia’s growth forecast

The International Monetary Fund cut its economic growth forecast for Russia, noting geopolitical uncertainty is causing investor hesitancy. The Washington-based lender halved its forecast for Russian economic growth in 2015 from one percent to one-half percent. “Geopolitical uncertainties are having a big direct impact on the Russian economy. Uncertainty makes investors very reluctant to invest in Russia,” said the IMF’s Antonio Spilimbergo at the conclusion of a semiannual visit to Moscow. He added, though, that despite Western sanctions affecting the Russian economy, Russia has a large foreign-reserve fund, a low public debt and a small public deficit. The country should stick to existing fiscal policy and not impose capital controls.

Headline: US tanks arrive in Baltics, Poland requests greater US military presence

Polish Prime Minister Ewa Kopacz says she wants a greater military presence in Poland in light of events in Ukraine. The comment came as the US announced it is deploying 700 soldiers and 20 ‘Ironhorse’ tanks across the three Baltic States and Poland. The comments were made during Kopacz’s inauguration speech to the lower house of the Polish parliament.
“In the face of what is happening in Ukraine, closer relations with the United States become more important. That is why my government will make every effort to ensure that the United States increases its military presence in Poland,” she said. Meanwhile, the so-called ‘Ironhorse’ armed cavalry unit – consisting of 20 M1A1 Abrams main battle tanks and about 700 soldiers, along with Bradley and Stryker armored vehicles – is being sent from its base in Texas and marks a considerable increase in tensions between NATO and Russia.
The Baltic countries and Poland have said they are nervous about an increasingly assertive Russia in the face of recent events in Ukraine. This is the first time the US has shipped heavy armored reinforcements to Europe since the end of the Cold War, Reuters reported. “The purpose is to be a very visible demonstration of commitment to our allies. We may take slightly longer to deploy than lighter forces, but there’s nothing like a tank if you really want to achieve effect,” said Captain John Farmer, public affairs officer for Ironhorse.

Headline:   Satellite imagery shows North Korea readying for rocket launch

North Korea’s Sohae Satellite Launching Station appears to be readying for a rocket launch, a U.S. think tank reported Thursday. According to the U.S.-Korea Institute at Johns Hopkins’ School of Advanced International Affairs, satellite imagery of the Sohae Satellite Launching Station in August and September indicates that a year-long construction project to upgrade the facility has been completed. “With the completion of work, North Korea is now ready to move forward with another rocket launch should a decision be made in Pyongyang to do so. If such a decision were to be made soon, a rocket could be launched by the end of 2014,” imagery expert Nick Hansen concluded in his analysis published on the 38 North website. Satellite imagery indicated rocket motor tests were conducted in August and September. Although it’s unclear whether they were successful, Hansen points out that “rocket motor tests are typically conducted prior to full-scale test launches of a missile that precede a weapon becoming operational.”

Headline: Ebola outbreak: ‘Five infected every hour’ in Sierra Leone

A patient in Honolulu, Hawaii, has been placed in isolation with suspected Ebola, the Department of Health confirmed on Wednesday. Even though the disease is a possibility, the patient has not yet been specifically tested for it, but is displaying some symptoms. The Hawaii Nurses Association said the person is being treated at The Queen’s Medical Center. Officials have not revealed the patient’s gender or travel history, reported KHON. ‘We are early in the investigation of a patient — very, very, early, who we’re investigating that might have Ebola,’ said Dr. Melissa Viray, deputy state epidemiologist. The Department of Health is working with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on this particular case to ensure that is it being handled with the utmost caution and care. ‘We’ve asked the hospitals to tell us about is anyone with a travel history and anyone with a fever, and when those things come together, we’ve asked them to be very careful and in an abundance of caution while you’re working, for whatever else might be going on, also make sure you isolate against Ebola, just in case,’ said Dr. Melissa Viray, deputy state epidemiologist.

Headline: Enterovirus D68 found in 4 patients who have died, including 10-year-old girl

Alberta Health Services (AHS) says it’s investigating four cases of paralysis in children, but the patients have not been diagnosed with Enterovirus D68. Provincial health officials in B.C. are trying to determine if a man and boy with the illness developed paralysis-like symptoms because of the infections. Doctors are watching the two cases but say it’s too soon to say if the virus is the cause. Alberta health officials say there has been no paralysis in any of the 50 confirmed EV-D68 cases in the province — 29 of which are in Calgary — but they are keeping a close eye on four pediatric patients to see if there is a link. The patients were admitted to the Alberta Children’s Hospital over the past week for assessment. “It could be limb weakness or some facial weakness,” said  Dr. Judy MacDonald, Calgary’s medical officer of health. “With those four cases, we do not know if this is Enterovirus D68. Some of them have tested positive for entero-rhinovirus but there’s additional testing that will need to be done.” MacDonald says she has also heard reports of two cases in the Edmonton area.

Headline: Guangdong dengue outbreak rages on with nearly 13,500 cases

The number of dengue fever cases in Guangdong has increased to 13,449 as of Sept. 30, a figure 19.38 times higher than the same period last year. Even one of the province’s vice governors has contracted the virus, reports our Chinese-language sister paper Want Daily. The outbreak this year was caused by rising temperature and intermittent rains which provided the warmth and humidity ideal for a mosquito population explosion. Standing pools of water left after rain are the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes, and has given their population density a fivefold boost over past figures in many areas in Guangdong province. The majority, or 84%, of dengue fever cases were in Guangzhou, followed by 1,389 cases in Foshan, 226 cases in Zhongshan and 187 cases in Jiangmen. One of cases is reportedly one of the province’s eight vice governors but the provincial government has yet to confirm the claim.

Headline: NASA sees intensifying typhoon Phanfone heading toward Japan

An intensifying typhoon called Phanfone that originated east of Guam on September 28, 2014 is headed toward southern Japan. The TRMM satellite crossed above Typhoon Phanfone on October 1, 2014 at 1039 UTC and gathered data about rainfall rates occurring in the storm. TRMM, or the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission satellite, is a managed by both NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency and can peer into a storm and determine how light or heavy rain is falling. At NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, rainfall data from TRMM’s Microwave Imager (TMI) Precipitation Radar (PR) was used to create an image of the storm. Typhoon Phanfone’s winds were estimated to be above 65 knots (about 75 mph/120 kph) at the time TRMM passed over the storm. Winds within the increasingly powerful typhoon are expected to increase to over 100 kts (115 mph/185 kph) in the next few days while moving toward the islands of southern Japan. This rainfall analysis revealed that Phanfone was producing rainfall over a very large area. The TRMM PR instrument indentified some storms in these bands were dropping rain at a rate of over 76 mm (almost 3 inches) per hour.

Headline: Abbas: If Security Council bid fails, we may end security cooperation with Israel

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas vowed Tuesday to join the International Criminal Court at the Hague in the event that his efforts at the UN Security Council to set a timetable forcing the withdrawal of Israel to the pre-1967 lines should fail. The Bethlehem-based Ma’an News Agency quoted Abbas as telling reporters in Ramallah: “We started work on the resolution to get a state on the ’67 borders with east Jerusalem as its capital which we will submit to the Security Council.” He said under the plan, “the occupation would be ended in two or three years.” Abbas said he would submit the plan, mandating an Israeli withdrawal within a defined time frame, in two to three weeks to the UN Security Council. Should the US choose to veto the resolution, Abbas said he would then go the ICC route, which could potentially lead to a war crimes probe against Israel, and even against the Palestinians themselves. Abbas also said the Palestinian Authority would reconsider relations with Israel, including security coordination, should the bid fail.

Headline: Palestinians: Israeli occupation must end in 2016

The Palestinians are asking the UN Security Council to set a deadline of November 2016 for an Israeli withdrawal from all Palestinian territory in a new push to achieve independence.   The circulation of the draft resolution to council members follows Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’ announcement to the UN General Assembly last Friday that he would ask the council to set a deadline for a pullout and dictate the ground rules for any talks with Israel.  The draft resolution, obtained Wednesday by The Associated Press, would affirm the Security Council’s determination to contribute to attaining a peaceful solution that ends the Israeli occupation “without delay” and fulfill the vision of two states – “an independent, sovereign, democratic, contiguous and viable state of Palestine” living side by side with Israel in peace and security in borders based on those before the 1967 Mideast war.  The draft calls for intensified efforts, including through negotiations, to reach a peaceful settlement of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and “a just resolution” of the status of Jerusalem as the capital of two states and of the Palestinian refugee problem.  Its key provision calls for “the full withdrawal of Israel, the occupying power, from all of the Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, including East Jerusalem, as rapidly as possible and to be fully completed within a specified timeframe, not to exceed November 2016, and the achievement of the independence and sovereignty of the state of Palestine and the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people.”

Headline:Full text of Obama-Netanyahu joint White House statements

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told U.S. President Barack Obama during their White House meeting Wednesday that he wants to integrate Arab states in the peace process with the Palestinians. Obama told Netanyahu that the status quo between the two sides, in Gaza and the West Bank, must change in order to advance peace. The meeting opened calmly, with both leaders apparently trying to convey positive messages. They thanked each other and lauded the cooperation between the two states. Netanyahu told Obama at the outset of the meeting that along with these threats there are also opportunities due to the fact that Israel and a number of leading Arab countries have common interests they didn’t have before. “I think we need to seize upon those common interests to advance security and peace in the Middle East,” he said. After he avoided expressing his support for a two-state solution or the establishment of a Palestinian state at his UN General Assembly speech Wednesday, at the meeting with Obama he did just that. “I remain committed to the vision of peace for two states for two peoples based on mutual recognition and rock solid security arrangements. We should make use of the new opportunities think outside of the box and see how we can include the Arab countries to advance this very hopeful agenda,” Netanyahu said.

Headline: Jordan: IDF Helped Us Destroy Israeli Spy Devices From 1969

Jordan’s military chief revealed Tuesday that what was previously identified as an archaeological dig near Aljoun University in northern Jordan was in fact a joint Jordanian military and Israel Defense Forces intelligence operation to remove Israeli listening devices placed there in 1969. In a press conference at Jordanian Prime Minister Abdullah Ensour’s home, the country’s military chief, Gen. Mashal al-Zaben, said the listening devices had been connected to Jordanian communication lines. Explosives had been planted next to the devices in case they were discovered. “After an explosion which took place February 2013 on the Al-Khalidiya highway, the Jordanian military began to investigate the cause of the blast,” the general said, according to Israel Hayom. “Jordanian special forces searched throughout Jordan, and we found that there are five sites with listening devices in them. Because they are located in populated areas, we turned to the Israelis for information on them. … Over the past year and half we have neutralized and destroyed most of the sites ourselves using controlled explosions,” said al-Zaben.

Islamist militants have released a Lebanese soldier they seized last month from a town at the border with Syria where they have clashed with the Lebanese army, security sources and state media said on Wednesday. It was not immediately clear why the soldier, identified by Lebanon’s state news agency as Kamal al-Hujairi, had been released. He was seized while visiting his family’s farm near the border town of Arsal last month, the National News Agency said. Militants are believed to be holding about 15 Lebanese soldiers and 15 other members of the security forces captured during an incursion by gunmen – including some linked to the Islamic State group – into Arsal in August. Islamic State militants have beheaded two captive soldiers and the Al-Qaida-linked Nusra Front has killed another.

The United States plans to sell Patriot missile batteries to Saudi Arabia worth $1.75 billion and long-range artillery to the United Arab Emirates valued at about $900 million, the Pentagon said Wednesday. The Defense Department informed Congress of the potential arms sales this week as fighter jets from both of the Gulf states took part in a U.S.-led air campaign against the Islamic State (IS) group in Iraq and Syria. The Saudi government had requested the purchase of 202 Patriot Advanced Capability (PAC)-3 missiles — the most sophisticated version of the Patriot anti-missile weapons — as well as a flight test target, telemetry kits and other related equipment, the Defense Security Cooperation Agency said in a statement. “The proposed sale will help replenish Saudi’s current Patriot missiles which are becoming obsolete and difficult to sustain due to age and the limited availability of repair parts,” the agency said. “The program will contribute to the foreign policy and national security of the United States by helping to improve the security of a partner which has been, and continues to be, an important force for political stability and economic progress in the Middle East,” it added.

Headline:Egypt offers military training to Libya, cites Islamic State threat

Egypt has offered to train pro-government forces battling rival armed groups in Libya, stepping up efforts to eradicate what it says is a threat to its own stability from the anarchy engulfing its neighbour. The offer was the latest sign of intervention by competing Arab powers in Libya – a haven for Islamist militants and close to becoming a failed state – while Western governments are preoccupied with Iraq and Syria. Egypt is trying to reassert its regional authority on its own terms while also winning back the U.S. military aid suspended after Cairo cracked down on the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood. Egyptian military officials and representatives of pro-government Libyan forces have met several times over the past two months in Cairo and the Mediterranean city of Marsa Matrouh, Egyptian security officials said. An intelligence official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said “intelligence and training” assistance were on the table. The Egyptian government spokesman declined comment, but Ahmad Buzeyad Al-Missmari, spokesman of the Libyan General Chief of Staff, confirmed Egypt had offered training for troops.

Syria Headline:   Islamic State crisis: New strikes in Syria near Kobane

US-led forces have carried out air strikes on Islamic State (IS) militants battling Kurdish fighters around the northern Syrian border town of Kobane. A BBC correspondent saw explosions outside the town in the morning. At least 10 people were killed overnight, Syrian activists said, as the jihadists moved to within 2 to 3km (1.2-1.9 miles) of Kobane. Tens of thousands of people have fled across the border into Turkey since IS launched an offensive two weeks ago. The jihadists’ advance has put pressure on the Turkish government to take a more significant role in the US-led coalition formed to combat IS. Ministers submitted a proposal to parliament late on Tuesday to allow Turkish troops to conduct operations in Syria and Iraq, and to allow foreign forces to use Turkish military bases. Parliament is expected to debate the proposal on Thursday, and the ruling AK Party’s majority means it is likely to be approved.

Several children are still missing, and the toll may rise further still,” said Observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman. The adults killed were four civilians and three members of the security forces. One attacker carried out both bombings. “He planted a bomb at one location at the school, and then blew himself up at another spot nearby,” Abdel Rahman told AFP of the attacker.

The supplies were supposed to help besieged Iraqi army officers and soldiers who had been fighting Islamist extremists for a week in Saglawyah and the village of Al-Sijar in the country’s western province of Anbar. “Some pilots, instead of dropping these supplies over the area of the Iraqi army, threw it over the area that is controlled by ISIS fighters,” said Hakim Al-Zamili, a lawmaker in the Iraqi parliament who is a member of the security and defense committee and acts as a security liaison for service members and commanders formed by anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr. “Those soldiers were in deadly need of these supplies, but because of the wrong plans of the commanders in the Iraqi army and lack of experience of the pilots, we in a way or another helped ISIS fighters to kill our soldiers.”

Iraq Headline: Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi ‘totally’ opposed to Arab airstrikes in Iraq

Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi voiced his opposition to Arab nations participating in U.S.-led airstrikes against Islamic State militants in Iraq. In an interview with the BBC, Abadi said he is “totally” opposed to their involvement and noted that Western countries have “filled many gaps” in Iraq’s capacity to fight back against the terror group’s lightning offensive. Although several Arab countries have joined the 40-nation coalition to counter IS, only the U.S., Britain and France have so far carried out airstrikes inside Iraq. Abadi discussed his concerns about anti-IS airstrikes during a meeting with reporters on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly last week. “I have raised the issue of sovereignty of Iraq,” said Abadi of his meetings with U.S. officials on the targeted airstrikes. “We don’t want to happen in Iraq what happened in Yemen and Pakistan,” he noted, referring to U.S. drone strikes in those countries. Any U.S. airstrikes in Iraq would require approval by the Iraqi government, he said. In addition, Abadi placed constraints on his support for U.S.-led coalition strikes against IS, also referred to in Arabic as Daesh, in neighboring Syria. “As a neighbor, I don’t want to be party to the disintegration of Syria or to have diminished sovereignty of Syria.”

Iraq Headline: Car bomb kills 11 in Shi’ite Baghdad neighborhood: police, medics

A car bomb exploded in a mostly Shi’ite Muslim neighborhood of southeastern Baghdad on Wednesday, killing 11 people, police and hospital sources said. The violence came a day after Baghdad witnessed one of its bloodiest days since U.S.-led air strikes against Islamic State insurgents in Iraq began in August. The sources said the explosion, which also wounded 27 people, occurred near a local market. Eight of those killed were civilians and three were policemen. Another bomb exploded in Mahmoudiya, a predominantly Shi’ite town south of Baghdad, killing one civilian and wounding seven, police and medical sources said.

Kurdish Headline:Islamic State militants kidnap 100 Kurdish civilians in northern Syria

The Islamic State (IS/ISIS), an al-Qaeda offshoot, took more 100 Kurdish citizens as hostages over the past few days in Ain Issa of Tel Abyad suburbs in the province of Raqqa, northeastern Syria. The Syrian opposition-linked Media Office in Raqqa reported that the organization kidnapped entire Kurdish families as captives from the northern countryside of the town of Ain Issa, pointing out that they are held captives by the IS militants in Tel Abyad. The source also pointed out that the city of Raqqa is witnessing the exodus of a large number of IS militants with their families towards the town of Ain Issa, following the confiscation of Kurdish citizens’ houses in the town. This comes amid intensified air strikes by the fighter jets of the international coalition hitting the IS headquarters in the province of Raqqa and its surroundings. Speaking to ARA News  in Raqqa, activist Baz al-Furati said that for the first time the IS group used thermal rockets against the coalition’s aircrafts after more than seven air raids on Raqqa suburbs on Tuesday.

Kurdish Headline: IS militants behead captured Kurds; UK warns citizens

Activists say Islamic State militants have beheaded nine Kurdish fighters, including three women, captured in clashes near the Syria-Turkey border. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Wednesday that the nine Kurds were captured during fighting over the northern Syrian town of Kobani, also known as Ayn Arab. There have been fierce clashes around Kobani since mid-September, when the Islamic State group launched an assault to seize the area. The Observatory also says that dozens of militants and Kurdish fighters were killed in clashes overnight.

Headline: France ups military deployment against IS group

France is deploying an anti-aircraft frigate and more fighter jets in the Persian Gulf region to boost its ability to carry out airstrikes against Islamic State militants in Iraq. The Defense Ministry said Wednesday that three Rafale jets will shortly join six others already based at a French air base outside Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. It said French military liaison officers will also join allied command structures in the region. Acting on a request from Iraqi authorities, France has conducted two sets of airstrikes against the Islamic State group in Iraq since Sept. 19 — the first foreign country to join the United States in conducting such strikes in Iraq. France is not participating in U.S.-led airstrikes in neighboring Syria, where the group is also active.

Headline: Fresh shelling claims 10 lives in Ukraine’s Donetsk

At least ten people have been killed in fresh shelling of the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk where the army is fighting pro-Russia forces, regional authorities say. According to a statement by the pro-Kiev Donetsk regional government, a shell landed in a school in the city’s northern part on Wednesday, leaving four people dead and eight others wounded. Another shell hit a minibus nearby and killed six more Ukrainians, the statement added.Regional authorities blamed pro-Moscow activists for the incidents, saying in a statement, “The Donetsk People’s Republic used rocket launchers to shoot at a school…. The shell exploded five meters away from the building.”The fresh attacks in Donetsk come as Kiev and the pro-Russians inked a Russian-proposed truce pact in early September aimed at putting an end to heavy clashes in Ukraine’s eastern provinces.

Headline:Ukraine rebels close in on Donetsk airport

Pro-Russian rebels in eastern Ukraine advanced Wednesday on the government-held airport in Donetsk, pressing to seize the key transportation hub even as the two sides bargained over a troop pullout under a much-violated truce. Fighting for the airport has raged for months as the insurgents have tried to dislodge the government forces using it to shell rebel positions in Donetsk, the largest rebel-held city. At least nine people were killed in the crossfire Wednesday in residential areas near the airport. Civilian and military casualties have continued to rise in eastern Ukraine despite a cease-fire Sept. 5 and a second agreement Sept. 20 that spelled out how to create a buffer zone. While that helped to enforce the cease-fire in areas where Ukrainians troops and rebels chose to retreat, non-stop fighting has continued at the airport and other strategic locations. While the Donetsk airport building has been gutted by shelling, its long runway would let the rebels handle heavy cargo planes carrying supplies, instead of relying solely on truck convoys from Russia. While it was impossible to get close to the airport Wednesday because of the fighting, an AP reporter in Donetsk saw that artillery fire hitting the airport was coming from government-held positions outside the city — an indication that Kiev may no longer hold the airport.

Russia has deployed paratroopers with the 76th air assault division into eastern Ukraine, a Ukrainian NGO reported Wednesday. According to the Information Resistance Group, whose mandate is “to counteract external threats to the informational space of Ukraine,” the units were deployed near the Ukrainian town of Stakhanov in the Luhansk region. The unspecified number of Russian paratroopers were being transported by special transport in groups of 10 over the past 24 hours, said IR leader Dmytro Tymchuk.

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power said the world body could join the United States and the European Union and impose sanctions on leaders on both sides of the South Sudan conflict if peace talks for the young nation do not make substantial progress soon. Speaking to reporters in New York, Power said the United States stands firmly behind the regional bloc, the Intergovernment Authority on Development (IGAD), which has been trying for months to get the warring sides in South Sudan to reach a lasting peace deal. But, she said, “IGAD is running out of patience.” “They are sitting down with  the parties and making very clear that if this round of talks — and particularl once the leaders are brought back into this round of talks — do not succeed, IGAD and the Council are going to need to move out on these long-threatened sanctions.”

Headline:Libyan Army Declares Ceasefire After UN-Brokered Talks

The Libyan army has declared a halt to military operations “on all fronts,” local media said Wednesday, two days after rival parliamentarians at a UN-sponsored meeting called for a ceasefire in the troubled country. Military spokesman Colonel Abu Zaid al-Mismari told the Al-Wasat news site that the army would halt operations and implement a ceasefire on all fronts. The military however retained the right to respond to anyone firing on its forces or civilians, he said. Al-Mismari said the decision was taken out of respect for the Islamic feast of Eid al-Adha, which starts within days, and in response to the parliamentarians’ ceasefire call. The UN mission in Libya on Monday brought together members who have been attending the recently-convened House of Representatives, based in the eastern port town of Tobruk, with others who have been boycotting its sessions. A UN statement after the talks said the lawmakers also agreed on confidence-building measures including addressing humanitarian needs and re-opening the country’s airports. Further meetings are due to take place after Eid al-Adha.

Turkey will fight against ISIS and other “terrorist” groups in the region but will stick to its aim of seeing Syrian President Bashar Assad removed from power, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said Wednesday . The advance of ISIS insurgents to within sight of the Turkish army on the Syrian border has piled pressure on Ankara to play a greater role in the U.S.-led coalition carrying out air strikes against the insurgents in Syria and Iraq. “We will fight effectively against both [ISIS] and all other terrorist organisations within the region; this will always be our priority,” Erdogan said in a speech at the opening of parliament. “We will continue to prioritise our aim to remove the Syrian regime, to help protect the territorial integrity of Syria and to encourage a constitutional, parliamentary government system which embraces all citizens.”

Headline:Turkish police arrest 3 IS suspects after protesters clash in Istanbul

Turkish police on Wednesday detained three students at Istanbul University suspected of being sympathisers of the Islamic State (IS) group following clashes at an anti-militant campus protest, reports said. Police stormed the university’s faculty of humanities and science in Istanbul’s Beyazit district after Islamist students armed with sticks and stones attacked another group protesting against IS. Three students were detained after being identified by police as IS supporters because they were wearing black masks and hats during the fight earlier Wednesday, Hurriyet newspaper reported on its website. “We are Muslim students. Long live Muslim students. We Muslims are one body,” they reportedly chanted during the protest. Dozens of riot police officers as well as armoured vehicles and water cannon trucks were deployed around the university after the early morning raid. Istanbul University has in the last few days been the scene of clashes between leftist students denouncing the brutality of the IS militants and the group’s sympathisers. On Friday, an anti-IS protest turned violent when masked assailants attacked a group of students with sticks studded with nails. One student was injured in the head when a glass bottle was thrown at him. The assailants also tore down a banner that read “[Islamic State], get out of the Middle East”.

The protests follow a Monday decision by Spain’s constitutional court to suspend Catalonia’s referendum on independence after a request from the Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy. The Spanish government lodged a formal appeal with the constitutional court, asking it to declare the independence referendum illegal.

A mosquito-borne virus that can cause debilitating joint pain lasting for years has spread to the continental U.S. after infecting hundreds of thousands of people in the Caribbean and Central America. The virus is called Chikungunya, an African name meaning “to become contorted.” While the illness, first identified in Tanzania in 1952, has long bedeviled Africa and Asia, the only recorded cases in the U.S. before July involved patients who contracted the virus abroad. Now, 11 cases have been confirmed as originating in Florida, spurring concern this may be the beginning of the type of explosive growth seen elsewhere from a disease that has no vaccine or cure. Medical and environmental experts are debating how best to quell the outbreak before it takes off. “In a way it’s surprising it hasn’t been here yet,” said Scott Weaver, a professor at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston.

A former Food and Drug Administration chief scientist and top infectious disease specialist said that several people were exposed to the Ebola virus by the unidentified patient in Dallas, America’s first case, and it’s likely that many more will be infected. Dr. Jesse L. Goodman, now a professor of medicine at Georgetown University Medical Center, said while the nation shouldn’t panic, it’s best to prepare for the worst. “It is quite appropriate to be concerned on many fronts,” he said in a statement provided to Secrets. “First, it is a tragedy for the patient and family and, as well, a stress to contacts, health care workers and the community at large. Second, it appears several people were exposed before the individual was placed in isolation, and it is quite possible that one or more of his contacts will be infected,” he added. What’s more, he conceded that it was “only a matter of time” that the swift-killing African virus arrived in the U.S. “If anyone did not agree before, bringing the epidemic in Africa under control is an absolute emergency and requires a massive effort and global commitment now long overdue. This is a matter not just of preventing death and suffering in Africa, but, as this case brings home to the U.S., of global safety and security,” he warned. He also strongly suggested that the one case will not be the end.

A WHO Emergency Committee recommended steps “to strengthen infection prevention control practices, build capacity of heath care workers and provide protective equipment in vulnerable countries, especially African countries.” Poor infection control and a lack of expertise and equipment are widely seen as key reasons for the rapid spread of the deadly Ebola virus in three West African countries. The committee, whose experts issue an update on the disease every three months, also called for improved MERS awareness among pilgrims going to Saudi Arabia for the annual Muslim haj journey and for surveillance of pilgrims during and after haj. The committee said although there had been significant efforts to strengthen preventative measures against MERS, also known as MERS coronavirus (MERS-CoV), more was needed.

Headline: Rhode Island child with Enterovirus dies after infection: officials

A Rhode Island child hospitalized with Enterovirus D68 has died of a bacterial infection in what state public health officials described on Wednesday as an unusual and dangerous combination. The child, a 10-year-old girl who was not named, died last week as a result of a staphylococcus aureus sepsis alongside the respiratory virus, the Rhode Island Department of Health said in a statement, calling it a “very rare combination that can cause very severe illness in children and adults.” She had been hospitalized for less than 24 hours when she died, and doctors do not know how or when she acquired the bacterial infection, said Christina Batastini, a spokeswoman for the state health department. “What we do know is that she presented with some sort of respiratory issues, difficulty breathing,” Batastini said. “Her parents did all the right things, they took her to emergency room immediately by ambulance and by the time she got to the hospital, the conditions became dire.” Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common bacteria and can be found in hospitals and other health care settings. Public health experts have long been concerned about it, especially in its drug-resistant form. Officials were careful to remind the public that very few people who contract the Enterovirus D68 will develop symptoms beyond a runny nose and low fever. “Many of us will have EV-D68. Most of us will have very mild symptoms and all but very few will recover quickly and completely,” said Michael Fine, director of the state Department of Health, in a statement. Officials declined to identify the hospital that had treated the girl or name the city where it was located. The EV-D68 virus has been confirmed in 472 people, mostly children, in 41 states plus the District of Columbia, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
