  • MIL-OSI Asia-Pac: Land and Development Advisory Committee holds meeting

    Source: Hong Kong Government special administrative region – 4

    At its meeting today (July 4), the Land and Development Advisory Committee (LDAC) was briefed by the Government on the preliminary development proposal of sites around Hung Hom Station and its waterfront areas, and the proposed scheme to be launched jointly by the Development Bureau (DEVB) and the Education Bureau (EDB) to encourage the market to convert commercial buildings into student hostels.
     
    Members generally welcomed the Government’s proposal to transform the sites around Hung Hom Station and its waterfront areas into a new harbourfront landmark through replanning, thereby enriching the public and tourists’ enjoyment of the Victoria Harbour. While agreeing that commercial elements such as retail and dining should be provided in the development, Members suggested that land use flexibility should be maximised to allow the future developer(s) to adjust the mix of different types of commercial use in the future having regard to the prevailing market environment. 
     
    Members appreciated that the proposal would improve the pedestrian connectivity in both the north-south (from hinterland to waterfront) and east-west (between Hung Hom and Tsim Sha Tsui East) directions, but suggested further studies be conducted to explore further strengthening connectivity, say with other developed areas of Hung Hom and Tsim Sha Tsui East that were currently outside the scope of the study, and to incorporate innovative urban design elements. On the utilisation of water body, Members were in support of the idea of providing yacht berthing facilities at the water body adjacent to the former Hung Hom Freight Yard site to address the shortage of berths. Members also recommended the Government consider the need for formulating more facilitating measures to complement the development proposal to better promote yacht tourism and facilitate the development of the yacht industry, and to ensure that the general public would be able to enjoy the harborfront. 
     
    The Government will take into account Members’ recommendations and the feedback received during the consultation period to be ended in early July when refining the proposal and finalising the detailed development parameters. The aim is to commence the relevant statutory procedures in the second half of 2026.
     
    On the Government’s proposal to streamline development control procedures to encourage conversion of commercial buildings into student hostels, Members welcomed the proposed facilitation measures to boost the supply of hostel accommodation to enable Hong Kong to better grasp opportunities ahead to reinforce its position as an international post-secondary education hub. These measures include expanding the definition of ‘Hotel’ use under the planning regime to cover eligible student hostels under the proposed scheme; and providing concessions for eligible student hostels converted from commercial buildings with regard to plot ratio, site coverage, and exempted gross floor area, etc. Members considered the proposed scheme timely and relevant, and would leverage market forces through streamlining development procedures to boost hostel supply in the short run on the one hand, and facilitating more effective use of the commercial building stock currently in the market on the other.
     
    The Government will continue to brief the trade and stakeholders on the proposed scheme, which is expected to be rolled out in mid-July this year.
     
    In addition, Members were briefed by the Lands Department on the latest measures to enhance transparency and provide more certainty with regard to the processing of applications for lease modifications, land exchange, private treaty grant and other land transactions. Members welcomed the Lands Department’s initiative to set out time targets for certain key steps in the processing of land transactions.

  • MIL-OSI Asia-Pac: CFS continues to follow up on imported turkey bacon with possible contamination of Listeria monocytogene

    Source: Hong Kong Government special administrative region – 4

         The Centre for Food Safety (CFS) of the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department today (July 4) said that subsequent to yesterday’s announcement that kinds of prepackaged turkey bacon originated from the United States (US) might have been contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, a follow-up investigation showed that an importer had imported one of the affected products. The CFS urged the public not to consume the product. The trade should stop using or selling the affected batch of the product immediately if they possess it.

    Product details are as follows:

    Product name: Oscar Mayer Turkey Bacon Original
    Place of origin: US
    Pack size (Universal Product Code/Lot number) and use-by dates: 
    (1) 12oz (071871548601/RS40), July 18 to August 2, 2025;
    (2) 36oz (071871548748/RS19, RS40 and RS42), July 23 to September 4, 2025; and
    (3) 48oz (071871548793/RS19, RS40 and RS42), July 18 to September 4, 2025

         “The CFS has been closely following up on the notice issued by United States Department of Agriculture indicating that the above-mentioned product might have been contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes and is being recalled. Upon learning of the incident, the CFS immediately followed up on the incident, and learnt during the follow-up investigation that an importer (Etak International Limited) had imported one of the concerned products (pack size: 12oz; use-by date: July 26, 2025).”

    The importer concerned has stopped sales and removed from shelves the affected product, and has initiated a recall according to the CFS’s instructions. Members of the public may call its hotline at 2526 2371 during office hours for enquiries about the recall of the product concerned.

         “Listeria monocytogenes can be easily destroyed by cooking but can survive and multiply at refrigerator temperature. Most healthy individuals do not develop symptoms or only have mild symptoms like fever, muscle pain, headache, nausea, vomiting or diarrhoea when infected. However, severe complications such as septicaemia, meningitis or even death may occur in newborns, the elderly and those with a weaker immune system. Although infected pregnant women may just experience mild symptoms generally, the infection of Listeria monocytogenes may cause miscarriage, infant death, preterm birth, or severe infection in newborns,” the spokesman said.

    “In order to reduce the risk of listeriosis, susceptible populations such as pregnant women should consume freshly prepared hot food where possible, reheat chilled food until it is hot all the way through, and avoid high-risk foods, including ready-to-eat food such as cold cuts, cold smoked seafood, soft cheeses, salads, etc, or cook them thoroughly before consumption, even if they are presented as part of a dish.”

         The CFS will alert the trade to the incident, and will continue to follow up and take appropriate action. The investigation is ongoing.

  • MIL-OSI Asia-Pac: Hong Kong Customs seizes suspected cannabis buds and suspected cannabis oil at airport (with photo)

    Source: Hong Kong Government special administrative region – 4

    Hong Kong Customs today (July 4) detected a drug trafficking case involving baggage concealment at Hong Kong International Airport and seized about 11.2 kg of suspected cannabis buds and 50 sticks of vapes containing suspected cannabis oil with a total estimated market value of about $2.4 million.
     
    The case involved a 38-year-old male passenger arriving in Hong Kong from Bangkok, Thailand, today. During customs clearance, Customs officers found the batch of suspected cannabis buds and vapes containing suspected cannabis oil in his two check-in suitcases. The man was subsequently arrested.
     
    The arrested person has been charged with one count of trafficking in a dangerous drug. The case will be brought up at the Kowloon City Magistrates’ Courts tomorrow (July 5).

    Customs will continue to step up enforcement against drug trafficking activities through intelligence analysis. The department also reminds members of the public to stay alert and not to participate in drug trafficking activities for monetary return. They must not accept hiring or delegation from another party to carry controlled items into and out of Hong Kong. They are also reminded not to carry unknown items for other people.

    Customs will continue to apply a risk assessment approach and focus on selecting passengers from high-risk regions for clearance to combat transnational drug trafficking activities.

    Under the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance, trafficking in a dangerous drug is a serious offence. The maximum penalty upon conviction is a fine of $5 million and life imprisonment.

    Members of the public may report any suspected drug trafficking activities to Customs’ 24-hour hotline 182 8080 or its dedicated crime-reporting email account (crimereport@customs.gov.hk) or online form (eform.cefs.gov.hk/form/ced002).

  • MIL-OSI NGOs: BRICS: Greenpeace calls for strong global leadership in pushing climate action and nature protection

    Source: Greenpeace Statement –

    Rio de Janeiro, Brazil – Leaders at the BRICS Summit have a responsibility to reinforce multilateralism and deliver an urgent signal they are prepared to act on the global challenges of climate change and nature protection.

    Less than two weeks after the Bonn Climate Change Conference was marred by a lack of urgency and as G7 leaders tiptoed around the need for climate action, BRICS leaders have an obligation to move ahead with urgent climate action on the road to COP30 in Brazil – including accelerating the COP28 decision to transition away from fossil fuels to align their climate action plans with the 1.5°C goal. 

    Anna Carcamo, Climate Politics Specialist, Greenpeace Brazil said: “All eyes are on Brazil this year as the BRICS and COP30 host. This is a seismic opportunity to drive bold, collaborative Global South leadership. BRICS nations, several of which are among the most climate vulnerable, must seize this moment and take a decisive stand for people and the planet.

    “The BRICs can lead climate action with strong 2035 climate action plans and Brazil has a responsibility to steer them to higher ambition, ensuring an accelerated transition away from fossil fuels and pushing forward to end deforestation through a transformative forest outcome at COP30 in the Amazon.”

    Yao Zhe, Global Policy Adviser, Greenpeace East Asia said: “The BRICS agenda has always placed global development at its core. However, amid major economic and geopolitical challenges, ecological degradation is threatening the foundations of future prosperity and undermining development potential.

    “It is crucial therefore that the BRICS evolves into a positive force for strengthening global environmental and climate governance by offering joint leadership and innovative solutions. As a founding member of BRICS, China plays a particularly important role in this endeavour.”

    Koaile Monaheng, Pan African Political Strategist, Greenpeace Africa said: “In a year as the G20 host, South Africa also needs to live up to its global responsibilities and a good place to start is ratifying the global oceans treaty and pushing other BRICS members to do the same. But responsible leadership also starts at home and South Africa must push ahead with an ambitious 2035 climate action plan to set the scene for climate finance talks at COP30.”

    Rayhan Dudayev, Forest Solution Political Lead, Greenpeace Southeast Asia said: “The world is watching for Global South leadership that strengthens multilateralism, centres climate justice and puts community-based solutions at the heart of climate action and finance. Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities protect over one-third of the world’s forests, but receive only 1 % of global climate finance. The Brazilian-led Tropical Forests Forever Facility is an opportunity to strengthen forest protection and halt deforestation if it ensures robust monitoring and full participation of frontline communities.”

    Abigail Aguilar, Global Plastics Campaign Manager, Greenpeace USA said: “A strong Global Plastics Treaty that cuts plastic production and provides a pathway for sustainable development in the Global South could provide a defining signal that BRICS nations are listening to the most affected in the developing countries and are ready to step up where others have faltered.

    “With the Global Plastics Treaty negotiations on the horizon in Geneva, BRICS nations must commit to an ambitious agreement that will cut plastic production, secure finance and technology needed for a just transition and protect our people, climate and the planet.”

    Mariana Andrade, Ocean Campaigner, Greenpeace Brazil said: “The High Seas Treaty’s ratification is within touching distance and Global South leadership has helped drive forward this crucial agreement. But ahead of the next International Seabed Authority meeting, we are watching whether that leadership extends to defending the ocean from unilateral deep sea mining.

    “Reckless exploitation of the deep sea would betray the principles of multilateralism that BRICS countries must champion. This is a moment where they must commit to international law, science-based decision-making and the common heritage of humankind.”

    Trinidad and Tobago President Christine Kangaloo on Friday showered praise on Prime Minister Narendra Modi while conferring the nation’s highest honour upon him.

    She lauded PM Modi for his longstanding contributions, kindness, and unwavering support to the country and the wider Caribbean region.

    “Your kindness and generosity to the people of Trinidad and Tobago are legendary. They have been demonstrated time and again,” she noted, recalling several acts of bilateral goodwill.

    “Trinidad and Tobago is immensely glad to have been able to bestow upon you our nation’s highest honour in recognition of the tremendous work you have done with our nation over the years and for the kindness and generosity you have always shown to our country and indeed our region,” President Kangaloo said during the ceremony at the President’s House in Port of Spain.

    Prime Minister Modi was conferred with ‘The Order of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago (ORTT)’ on Friday, the highest civilian award of the nation, becoming the first foreign leader ever to receive the honour. This marks the 25th international award conferred on PM Modi by a foreign country.

    Praising the Indian Prime Minister’s continued support and goodwill, President Kangaloo emphasized that his efforts have become “legendary” among the people of Trinidad and Tobago.

    She particularly highlighted India’s assistance during the COVID-19 crisis, underscoring a key example of personal intervention by PM Modi.

    “During the COVID-19 pandemic, 40,000 doses of vaccines arrived in Trinidad as a result of your personal intervention and action. That act of kindness only further strengthened the longstanding relationship between our two countries,” she added.

    PM Modi began his first official visit to Trinidad and Tobago on Thursday (local time) with a ceremonial Guard of Honour at Piarco International Airport, where he was received by Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar, along with 38 ministers and four Members of Parliament of the Caribbean nation.

    The Prime Minister shared a video of the warm welcome on the social media platform X, writing: *”May the friendship between India and Trinidad & Tobago flourish in the times to come! Highlights from a special welcome in Port of Spain.”* The footage showed cultural performances, traditional music, and a vibrant welcome from the local Indian diaspora.

    PM Modi also interacted with members of the Indian community who had gathered at the airport, expressing his gratitude for their heartfelt reception.

    His visit to Trinidad and Tobago is the second leg of a five-nation tour from July 2 to July 9, aimed at strengthening bilateral cooperation in areas such as digital finance, renewable energy, healthcare, and information technology.

    This visit marks the first bilateral visit by an Indian Prime Minister to Trinidad and Tobago since 1999 and PM Modi’s first visit to the country in his current role.

    Following his engagements in Trinidad and Tobago, PM Modi is scheduled to travel to Argentina, Brazil, and Namibia. He will attend the 17th BRICS Summit 2025 in Brazil from July 5 to July 8, before concluding his tour with a state visit to Namibia.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: “The Spirit of China – Central Asia” has its roots in the distant past and corresponds to the trend of the current reality – the Ambassador of China to Kyrgyzstan

    Bishkek, July 4 /Xinhua/ — “The spirit of China – Central Asia” has its roots in the distant past and corresponds to the trend of the current reality. This is stated in the author’s article by the Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China to Kyrgyzstan Liu Jiangping, published recently in the newspaper “Slovo Kyrgyzstana”.

    In June, the second China-Central Asia summit was held in Astana, Kazakhstan. In her article entitled “Promoting the China-Central Asia Spirit, Building a Common Home of Good-Neighborliness, Friendship, Development and Prosperity,” Liu Jiangping recalled that the summit was held in a Central Asian country for the first time, which is of great importance for the further development of the China-Central Asia format.

    “Following the summit, the heads of six states signed the Astana Declaration, which recorded the ‘Spirit of China – Central Asia’. More than one hundred agreements were reached, which gave a powerful impetus to the creation of a closer community of shared destiny between China and Central Asia,” she noted.

    “The China-Central Asia Spirit” is characterized by mutual respect, mutual trust, mutual benefit, mutual assistance and the promotion of joint modernization through high-quality development. “The highlight of the summit is the confirmation of the “China-Central Asia Spirit”, which has its roots in the distant past and is in line with the trend of the current reality,” the diplomat said in her article.

    She stressed that more than two thousand years ago, the envoy of the Han Dynasty Zhang Qian went to the Western Region, laid the foundation for friendly relations between China and Central Asia. For more than 30 years since the establishment of diplomatic relations, China and the Central Asian countries have maintained solidarity and mutual trust, firmly supporting each other in protecting independence, sovereignty, territorial integrity and national dignity.

    “This spirit demonstrates the unanimity of the six countries in pursuing unity and common development, which serves as a guiding principle for maintaining the centuries-old friendship and cooperation between our countries,” Liu Jiangping said.

    The most important outcome of the summit was the signing of the Treaty on Eternal Good-Neighborliness, Friendship and Cooperation. “For the first time in the history of Chinese diplomacy, the principle of eternal friendship with an entire adjacent region was enshrined in a treaty,” she noted, emphasizing that China and the Central Asian countries are good neighbors, good friends, reliable partners and brothers. China always considers Central Asia as one of its foreign policy priorities and develops relations with Central Asian partners on the principles of equality and sincerity.

    The diplomat named the announcement of 2025-2026 as the Years of High-Quality Development of China-Central Asia Cooperation as the most pressing topic of the summit. In recent years, China-Central Asia cooperation has demonstrated high results. China is the most important trading partner and investor in the Central Asian countries.

    In the more than two years since the Xi’an summit, cooperation between China and Central Asian countries within the Belt and Road Initiative has continued to deepen. Construction of the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway has begun, and cooperation on the China-Europe express railway and the Trans-Caspian International Transport Corridor is advancing at an accelerated pace, the ambassador said, adding that trade turnover between China and Central Asian countries in 2024 reached a record high of $94.8 billion, an increase of 35 percent.

    The Ambassador also noted that China is ready to develop high-quality cooperation with the Central Asian countries in such areas as uninterrupted trade, industry and investment, transport connectivity, green subsoil use, modern agriculture and mutual travel of citizens.

    Touching upon Chinese-Kyrgyz cooperation, Liu Jiangping noted that it is an important component of the entire complex of interactions between China and the Central Asian countries. Today, Chinese-Kyrgyz relations have entered a golden period of their development and have significant potential for further deepening. The meeting of the leaders of the two countries on the sidelines of the summit outlined a new plan for the development of Chinese-Kyrgyz relations.

    China expressed its readiness to work together with the Central Asian countries, including Kyrgyzstan, to implement the agreements reached by the heads of state. Particular emphasis was placed on the need to promote the “China-Central Asia Spirit”, intensify cooperation through a more pragmatic approach and specific measures, as well as promote high-quality construction of the “Belt and Road” initiative in order to achieve new results in creating a community of shared destiny for China and Central Asia, the ambassador concluded. –0–

    The Education Bureau today held a gala celebrating the fifth anniversary of the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law and the 28th anniversary of Hong Kong’s Return to the motherland.

    The “Love Our Home, Treasure Our Country” Joint School National Education Activities Gala showcased the fruitful achievements of the school year.

    Deputy Chief Secretary Cheuk Wing-hing and Secretary for Education Choi Yuk-lin officiated at the event. Around 2,000 representatives from school sponsoring bodies, school councils, school head associations, schools and parent-teacher associations attended.

    Mr Cheuk said that the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government has consistently promoted mainstream values centred on patriotism and love for Hong Kong, which align with the principle of “one country, two systems”.

    In April last year, the Working Group on Patriotic Education, chaired by the Chief Secretary, was established to deepen public understanding and appreciation of our nation and the richness of Chinese culture, and to systematically integrate patriotic education into the national education framework.

    The Deputy Chief Secretary noted that the “Love Our Home, Treasure Our Country 3.0” joint school national education series is a fine example of how the education sector has responded positively to this initiative and worked together to promote patriotic education.

    He hoped students would turn the knowledge and experiences gained from the “Love Our Home, Treasure Our Country” activities into positive values and meaningful actions – actively practising the spirit of patriotism and love for Hong Kong.

    Mr Cheuk also hoped they would aspire to become a new generation of idealistic, courageous individuals with a strong Hong Kong spirit and national pride, contributing their youthful passion and strength to the cause of national unity and solidarity.

    This school year’s “Love Our Home, Treasure Our Country” joint school national education activities had a total attendance exceeding 40,000. Apart from teachers and students, some activities also invited parents, experts from different sectors and members of the public to enhance understanding of national education among different stakeholders.

    The activities included Chinese cultural experiences, learning of intangible cultural heritage skills, visual arts and innovation exhibitions, competitions, and enquiry-based studies on themes aligned with national policies.

    Today’s gala marked the grand finale of the “Love Our Home, Treasure Our Country 3.0” series.

  • MIL-OSI Asia-Pac: Buildings Department takes enforcement action against illegal domestic units in industrial building

    Source: Hong Kong Government special administrative region

    ​Regarding the fire incident in an industrial building at 21 Ma Tau Wai Road, Hung Hom, yesterday (July 3), it was suspected that the unit concerned had been subdivided for illegal domestic use. The Buildings Department (BD) was very concerned about this matter, and launched an investigation immediately. If any unlawful act is found, the BD will consider instigating prosecution against the relevant persons.

         “The design, approval of building plans and construction of industrial buildings are intended solely for industrial use. Since the units in industrial buildings are used for industrial activities, including the storage of dangerous and flammable items, illegal conversion of industrial buildings to domestic use poses serious safety risks to users.  No one should reside in industrial buildings.  Persons involved in sales and rental activities, such as prospective buyers and tenants as well as estate agents, should check the approved use of the units. An industrial unit should not be used for domestic purposes,” a spokesman for the BD said.

    Following the fire incident yesterday, the BD has deployed its staff to carry out a site inspection. Officers at the scene found that the unit concerned was subdivided into a number of smaller units, and some of them were illegally used for domestic purposes. The BD has served statutory orders in accordance with section 25 (2) and section 26(1) of the Buildings Ordinance (BO) to order the owner to discontinue the use of the unit for domestic purposes and rectify the dangerous situation.  The BD will continue its investigation. If anyone is found in contravention of the BO, the BD will follow up seriously, including considering prosecution against the relevant persons. In addition, the BD will include the building in its large-scale operation against domestic use in industrial buildings and will arrange to inspect the other units of the building in phases.

    Failure to comply with a discontinuation order served under section 25(2) or a repair order served under section 26(1) of the BO without reasonable excuse are serious offences. Upon conviction, the offender is liable to a maximum fine at level 5 (currently $50,000) and imprisonment for one year, and a further fine of $5,000 for each day that the offence continues.

    To ascertain the approved use of the premises, apart from obtaining independent professional advice, members of the public may obtain relevant information by checking the occupation permit and approved building plans of the building via the Building Records Access and Viewing On-line system of the BD if they are in doubt.

    The Government is finalising the proposals to amend the BO and drafting the legislative amendments, including criminalising the subdivision of units in industrial buildings for domestic uses to enhance deterrence. The Government aims to submit the amendment bill to the Legislative Council in the first half of 2026.

  • MIL-OSI Asia-Pac: Claim on security law untrue: Govt

    Source: Hong Kong Information Services

    The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government today said that the statement made by former non-permanent judge of the Court of Final Appeal (CFA) Brenda Hale on the Hong Kong National Security Law (HKNSL) and the rule of law and independent judicial power in Hong Kong is far from the truth, particularly her assertion that “the National Security Law has taken over the Basic Law” is absolutely incorrect and contrary to the facts.

    In a statement, the Hong Kong SAR Government noted that any claims the security law overrides the Basic Law are incorrect.  Article 1 of the HKNSL clearly states that the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (NPCSC) enacts the security law in accordance with the Constitution, the Basic Law, and the NPC’s decision on establishing and improving the legal system and enforcement mechanisms for safeguarding national security in Hong Kong.

    The HKNSL, promulgated and implemented in Hong Kong on June 30, 2020 has plugged the loopholes in the legal system and enforcement mechanisms for safeguarding the city’s national security. The security law and other laws safeguarding national security in Hong Kong firmly adhere to the principle of the rule of law while protecting the rights and freedoms enjoyed under the Basic Law in accordance with the law, the statement added.

    The statement noted that the judicial system of Hong Kong is protected by the Basic Law. According to Articles 2, 19 and 85 of the Basic Law, the Hong Kong SAR shall be vested with independent judicial power, including that of final adjudication, and the courts shall exercise judicial power independently, free from any interference.

    All judges and judicial officers abide by the Judicial Oath and administer justice in full accordance with the law without fear or favour, self-interest or deceit. When adjudicating cases of offences endangering national security, as in any other cases, judges remain independent and impartial in performing judicial duties, free from any interference, the statement said.

    The implementation of the security law over the past five years has proven that the courts have handled all the cases involving the HKNSL strictly in accordance with the above principle, it added.

    “The NPCSC’s authority to interpret the Basic Law and national laws that apply in Hong Kong is a fundamental aspect of the “one country, two systems” principle and has been recognised in the jurisprudence of the city.

    “It is therefore entirely in line with the ‘one country, two systems’ principle that the general power to interpret the HKNSL being a piece of national law, as stipulated in Article 65 thereof, is also vested in the NPCSC.”

    The interpretation given by the NPCSC on Articles 14 and 47 of the HKNSL in December 2022 does not and did not directly deal with any specific judicial proceedings or cases. Rather, it clarifies the meaning of the relevant legal provisions and the basis for application of the HKNSL.

    It does not in any way impair the independent judicial power and the power of final adjudication of the courts as guaranteed by the Basic Law. It is for the Hong Kong SAR to resolve specific cases and issues by itself.

    The Hong Kong SAR Government said that the long-time presence of esteemed judges from overseas appointed or reappointed as the CFA’s non-permanent judges participating in hearings of the Court as well as after the enactment of the security law, is conducive to the international legal environment and development of the jurisprudence of common law in Hong Kong.

    There are currently six non-permanent judges from the UK, Australia and New Zealand in the CFA.

    Brenda Hale was appointed as a non-permanent judge of the Court in 2018, but has never been involved in the hearing of any cases.

    She indicated to the Judiciary in June 2021 that for personal reasons, she would not wish to have her appointment extended for another term upon the expiry of her then appointment, which differs from her current statement.

  • MIL-OSI NGOs: Greenpeace Africa calls for strong global leadership from BRICS in pushing climate action and nature protection

    Source: Greenpeace Statement –

    Johannesburg, South Africa – As BRICS leaders gather in Brazil, African civil society voices—led by Greenpeace Africa—are urging the bloc to move beyond symbolism and deliver bold, people-centered action for climate justice, ecological protection, and equitable development. In a world marked by growing inequality and climate instability, BRICS must become a genuine platform for Global South leadership that places African priorities and civil society demands at its core.

    Africa’s Urgent Call: from symbolism to action

    The summit comes in the wake of yet another disappointing outcome at the Bonn Climate Conference, where wealthy nations once again failed to meet the urgency of the moment. With COP30 on the horizon and climate impacts accelerating across the African continent, civil society is calling on BRICS to use this pivotal moment to help shift global power structures and address the systems that continue to marginalize African communities and ecosystems.

    Fred Njehu, Global Political Lead, Fair Share Campaign, Greenpeace Africa, said:

    “African civil society is not giving up on our demands for real change. We’re demanding that BRICS leaders step up and deliver real change for the planet and people. South Africa, as both a BRICS founding member and G20 host, has a moral and political obligation to push for equity and accountability. That starts with leading efforts on reforming the global financial architecture, tax rules and leading a pan African push for ambitious, people-first 2035 climate actions. We need action that puts African lives and livelihoods before billionaires’ greed and profits. Frontline communities across this continent are already paying the price for climate inaction. It’s time for BRICS to prioritize climate finance that reaches grassroots solutions, not just boardrooms.”

    Civil Society priorities for BRICS action

    African civil society is united in calling for:

    • A just energy transition that centers workers, youth, women, and communities—not fossil fuel interests. 
    • Climate finance justice, with transparent, accessible funding for community-led adaptation and resilience. 
    • Full ratification of the High Seas Treaty, to protect African marine ecosystems from exploitation. 
    • Protection of the Congo Basin forest and Indigenous people’s rights, including meaningful participation in global forest initiatives. 
    • A Global Plastics Treaty that cuts production at the source and stops the waste colonialism harming African communities.

    Koaile Monaheng, Pan-African Political Strategist, Greenpeace Africa, added:

    “In a year as the G20 host, South Africa also needs to live up to its global responsibilities and a good place to start is ratifying the global oceans treaty and pushing other BRICS members to do the same. But responsible leadership also starts at home and South Africa must push ahead with an ambitious 2035 climate action plan to set the scene for climate finance talks at COP30.”

    A moment to demonstrate Global South leadership

    The BRICS Summit offers a critical opportunity to demonstrate the rising influence of the Global South in shaping a more just and sustainable global order. With Brazil hosting COP30 next year, the bloc is uniquely positioned to send a clear and united message: BRICS nations are ready to lead with purpose on the most urgent environmental challenges of our time.

    From intensified droughts and flooding to threats to food and water security, climate impacts are already being felt deeply across the Global South. BRICS countries—many of them directly affected—can help craft practical, cooperative solutions that reflect both the urgency and diversity of local contexts.

    Climate Action, Forest Protection, and the Plastics Treaty

    As discussions progress, there is a clear opportunity for BRICS to advance bold 2035 climate action plans that support an inclusive energy transition. These plans must be anchored in national realities but also promote cross-regional solidarity and resilience.

    Initiatives like Brazil’s Tropical Forests Forever Facility could serve as important models—if they prioritize participation, transparency, and the rights of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities who are already at the forefront of forest protection across the Amazon, Congo Basin, and Southeast Asia.

    On plastics, BRICS leaders have the opportunity to influence the upcoming Global Plastics Treaty negotiations in Geneva by pushing for a treaty that addresses production at the source, promotes a just transition for waste workers, and ensures Global South realities are embedded in the solutions.

    Protecting the Ocean Commons

    Momentum is also building around the High Seas Treaty, a landmark effort to protect ocean biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction. BRICS countries have contributed to its progress, and continued leadership will be vital to uphold multilateralism, science-based decision-making, and long-term ocean stewardship.

    Charting a path forward

    Greenpeace Africa believes that BRICS has a vital role to play in strengthening environmental and climate governance, both regionally and globally. Rooted in the shared principles of equity, development, and cooperation, the bloc has the potential to help reshape how the world responds to the intersecting crises of climate, nature, and inequality.

    The world is watching with anticipation. The decisions made in Rio can lay the foundation for a renewed collective ambition at COP30 and beyond—showing that a more inclusive, justice-centered form of leadership is not only necessary, but already within reach.

  • India’s military free and capable to respond to terror: Rajnath Singh

    Source: Government of India

    Source: Government of India (4)

    Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Friday asserted that India’s Armed Forces are fully free and capable of taking all necessary action against terrorism, reiterating the government’s commitment to a firm yet restrained approach.

    Speaking at an event in Hyderabad to mark the 128th birth anniversary of freedom fighter Alluri Sitarama Raju, Singh said terrorists who killed innocent civilians in Pahalgam acted according to their “Dharma”, but India’s forces responded in line with their “Karma”.

    “Terrorists killed innocent civilians in Pahalgam based on their Dharma, while the Armed Forces, through Operation Sindoor, destroyed the hideouts of terrorists based on their Karma,” Singh said. He underlined that during Operation Sindoor, the Indian Armed Forces displayed patience and exercised complete caution to ensure that civilian populations were not harmed while dismantling terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.

    “Our Armed Forces are free and capable to take all kinds of action against terrorism in the future as well,” he said, adding that the country’s security forces continue to act with restraint and moral clarity under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

    The event in Hyderabad was part of the commemorations for Alluri Sitarama Raju, who Singh described as a ‘warrior-saint’ and an inspiration for India’s modern defence and development strategy.

    “Alluri ji was not just a revolutionary, he was a movement. His guerrilla resistance despite limited resources remains a shining example of courage driven by principle. He taught us that standing up against injustice is not just a right, it is the nation’s Dharma,” Singh said.

    He drew parallels between Alluri’s life and the government’s current vision for tribal empowerment, citing initiatives such as the PM Tribal Development Mission, Skill India, and the National Sickle Cell Anaemia Elimination Campaign as steps towards mainstreaming tribal communities with dignity and opportunity.

    “From being denied basic rights during colonial rule to becoming the guardians of sustainable growth today, our tribal brothers and sisters have come a long way, and we are committed to walking alongside them,” Singh said.

    He emphasised that these efforts are driven not just by policy but by a deep emotional commitment to the values Alluri championed. Calling Alluri a symbol of unity who transcended caste barriers, Singh said his legacy continues to inspire India’s goal of becoming a developed nation by 2047.

    The Defence Minister described the birth anniversary celebrations as a testament to India’s 11 years of transformative governance and its resolve to build a ‘Viksit Bharat’ in the coming decades.

  • PM Modi to visit Buenos Aires, marking first bilateral trip by an Indian PM to Argentina in 57 years

    Source: Government of India (4)

    Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Buenos Aires, Argentina, on July 4 and 5 will mark the first bilateral trip by an Indian Prime Minister to the South American nation in nearly six decades.

    PM Modi has been to Argentina before, having attended the G20 Summit there in 2018. This upcoming visit, however, is his first bilateral trip, underlining both countries’ commitment to deepen their strategic ties.

    The visit will begin with the Prime Minister paying homage at the statue of General José de San Martín, Argentina’s revered freedom fighter and national hero. He will be accorded a ceremonial welcome and will hold delegation-level talks with President Javier Milei. The discussions will be followed by a lunch hosted by the Argentine President in honour of the Prime Minister.

    India and Argentina share a strategic partnership since 2019 and celebrated 75 years of diplomatic ties last year. This visit comes at a pivotal moment for Argentina, which is undertaking significant economic reforms that echo India’s own transformative economic journey. Both leaders are expected to hold extensive talks on expanding economic and trade ties.

    Key areas on the agenda include India’s advancements in defence manufacturing, the space sector, information technology, and digital public infrastructure (DPI). India is also looking to share its expertise in telemedicine and digital healthcare solutions, which could help Argentina improve access to medical services and ensure cost-effective healthcare delivery.

    Argentina’s vast natural resources present further opportunities for cooperation. The country holds the world’s second-largest shale gas reserves and the fourth-largest shale oil reserves, alongside substantial conventional oil and gas deposits—making it a potentially important energy partner for India. Argentina’s significant reserves of critical minerals such as lithium, copper, and other rare earth elements are vital for India’s clean energy transition and industrial growth. India’s public sector enterprise, KABIL, has already secured concessions in Argentina since 2024, and further discussions are expected during the visit.

    The bilateral talks are likely to pave the way for enhanced cooperation in trade and investment, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, defence and security, infrastructure, mining and mineral resources, agriculture and food security, green energy, ICT, digital innovation, disaster management, science and technology, education, and people-to-people ties.

    Prime Minister Modi’s historic visit is expected to lay the foundation for stronger strategic engagement and open new avenues of collaboration between India and Argentina in the years ahead.

    Among the 23 best graduates of 2025, 20 people completed their master’s degree and three completed their specialist’s degree; three graduates entered the 1st year of the bachelor’s degree at SPbPU in 2019 after graduating from the Natural Science Lyceum of the Polytechnic University (Svyatoslav Drozdov, PhysMech, Andrey Klinovitsky, IMMiT and Kristina Rodionova, IBSiB); 16 people graduated from high school or gymnasium with a medal, receiving a certificate of secondary education “with honors”.

    The first award was presented to a graduate of the Institute of Energy Alexander Abubakirov, which represented Polytechnic on June 25 in the Peter and Paul Fortress at the XXIII ceremonial honoring the best graduates of St. Petersburg universities. It was Alexander who was given the honorary right to fire the midday shot from the cannon of the Naryshkin Bastion.

    Also at the Institute of Energy, Pavel Volkov was awarded gold medals, Mikhail Chuprynenko and Andrey Florinsky.

    The best graduate of IMMiT was Andrey Klinovitsky, who came to the Polytechnic in 2019 after successfully graduating from the Natural Sciences Lyceum. Andrey shared that he chose the Lyceum at the time because he considered it one of the strongest schools in St. Petersburg with in-depth training in technical disciplines, and also closely connected with the Polytechnic University, which helped him immerse himself in the university environment in advance.

    “After graduating from the Lyceum, choosing the Polytechnic was easy — I already knew what to prepare for at the university and saw further opportunities for development,” Andrey said. “At ENL, we had electives in engineering creativity, where we designed and assembled robots, so I enrolled in the Mechatronics and Robotics program. It was not easy to study excellently for all six years, but the main thing for this is discipline and meeting deadlines. It is important to distribute the workload and not put off tasks until the last minute. At the same time, I had time for student activities and hobbies. For example, my friends and I founded a student association in robotics, participated in and won more than ten all-Russian competitions and competitions in robotics.”

    Yes, Andrey is well known to our readerspublications about the activities of the student association he leads “PolyRoboTech” and about the successes of his team in competitions. In addition, in 2023, he, like Alexander Abubakirov, was gold medalist of the “I am a professional” Olympiad.

    The best graduate of IBSiB Kristina Rodionova also came to the Polytechnic after the Natural Science Lyceum. In 2019, she graduated with a gold medal and, having now received a gold medal from SPbPU, confirmed the high quality of training of ENL graduates.

    “Most of all, in the natural-scientific lyceum, I was attracted to the fact that the training format there is not at all school, but student: instead of lessons-couples, at the end of each semester, oral exams in physics and mathematics are passed, there is even a division into lecture and practical classes, just like at a university,” Christina shared her memories. – Many of my classmates after the end of the Lyceum went to Polytech. I entered the direction of “Biotechnical Systems and Technologies” by the Institute of Biomedical Systems and Biotechnology. And my expectations were justified: I was lucky to study in the direction that brings pleasure. Although studying was very hard, especially in the first semester: in addition to the basic physics, higher mathematics and chemistry for all students, we also had medical subjects – anatomy, physiology, and histology. All this was very difficult to combine. How many tears were spilled over a textbook on anatomy! But after the second year it became much easier. Then in summer practice I began research work in the scientific laboratory. From that moment I have been in love with science: for four years, students managed to work in three laboratories, take part in writing articles, in conferences, in grants. My involvement in scientific life, as well as the mentoring of colleagues, in many ways helped to easily master academic disciplines. I am still very grateful to my first scientific mentor Anton Sergeyevich Shabunin, also once a graduate of the Polytechnic, for help in taking the first steps in a scientific career and transferred invaluable experience. Now I work in my specialty simultaneously in two laboratories, since I have not yet decided what is more interesting to me: tissue engineering or virology and immunology. ”

    We have already talked about the second best graduate of IBSiB, Daria Melentyeva we talked about this in detail in our special project “Persona”By the way, it was Dasha who gave a speech and took the oath on behalf of all the first-year students six years ago. at the ceremonial assembly in honor of SPbPU Knowledge Day.

    The best graduate of the IKNK, Alexander Khrustalev, in 2019 was also one of those first-year students who scored the highest number of points for the entrance exams.

    “Then I was glad that I managed to enter the university, now I am glad that I managed to graduate,” Alexander shared. “The first years were difficult, then grades stopped worrying me so much, and studying in specialized subjects became much easier. The patience and professionalism of our teachers helped me in my studies. Fortunately, all our teachers taught their courses wonderfully, thank you very much to them.”

    PhysMech graduate Svyatoslav Drozdov successfully graduated from the Polytechnic University’s Natural Sciences Lyceum in 2019 and says that his studies at ENL left him with “exceptionally positive impressions.”

    “And since I had a very good opinion of the Lyceum, I chose the Polytechnic as an organization associated with it,” Svyatoslav explained the reason for entering SPbPU. When asked whether it was difficult to study for six years with excellent grades, he answered scientifically: “The main difficulty in studying for 5.0 is precisely that you need to pay attention to everything, maximizing the probability of a specific outcome of the session (all A’s). With the same expenditure of resources, it would be much easier to count on an average score of 4.9. Therefore, sometimes there was a feeling of playing roulette, when you understand that any exam and an unsuccessful question on it can ruin a series of previously received grades. In my studies, the desire to understand what I do not understand, interest and sports excitement helped – will I be able to pass everything with excellent marks?”

    The Civil Engineering Institute was represented at the award ceremony by Daria Denisenko, Yulia Matveeva and Lyudmila Morshchakova.

    IPMEiT has been producing the most gold medalists for several years now. In 2025, these are Eldar Asadullaev, Anastasia Maykova, Marina Malashenko, Vadim Savekin, Daniil Tyurin, Ekaterina Fedorakhina, Nikita Sharikov, Maria Odesskaya.

    Adelina Borozdina became the best graduate at the Humanitarian Institute.

    At the Institute of Electronics and Telecommunications, Nikita Ivanov and The Manh Do from Vietnam received gold medals.

    From 2003 to 2025, 970 best graduates of the Polytechnic University were awarded SPbPU gold medals based on the results of winter and summer defenses of their final qualifying works. The largest number of gold medalists graduated from SPbPU in 2013 — 68 graduates. The smallest number — 19 graduates — in 2016 and 2023.

As 2025 unfolds, digital finance communities are increasingly referencing Aivora Trade as one of the most streamlined and promising AI-supported platforms for individuals interested in modern market participation.

    According to Official website, Aivora Trade known for its transparent user onboarding, robust customer support, and reliable trading infrastructure. What’s fueling this momentum isn’t hype—it’s the platform’s steady rise in user satisfaction and performance transparency. Unlike many opaque systems, Aivora Trade includes secure brokerage partnerships and active human support, distinguishing it in a landscape full of generic interfaces and automation gimmicks.

    Importantly, Aivora Trade requires no upfront subscription fees and offers guided orientation calls, which adds a level of trust for users new to digital assets or automated trading. With rising search trends and growing visibility across Canada, the U.S., India, and beyond, this tool is not just gaining clicks—it’s securing confidence. For anyone exploring how AI is transforming wealth management and personal finance, Aivora Trade represents a conversation that’s impossible to ignore.

    AI-Powered Trading at Its Core: The Technology Behind Aivora Trade

    At the heart of Aivora Trade is a proprietary AI engine that interprets market behavior, scans price trends, and generates trade signals with remarkable precision. This core functionality is what places Aivora Trade in a league above most conventional trading apps. It doesn’t merely automate trades—it adapts, reacts, and recalibrates strategies based on live financial inputs.

    What makes this particularly valuable in today’s fast-moving markets is the system’s capacity to recognize patterns in real time—far faster than any human trader. The algorithm reviews data across asset classes and pinpoints optimal entry or exit points. This constant recalibration reduces the margin of error, helping users engage markets with enhanced timing and discipline.

    The platform also supports multi-layered trading scenarios. Whether the market is trending up, down, or sideways, Aivora’s algorithmic framework adjusts accordingly. Features like adjustable risk thresholds, customized strategy modules, and loss-limiting functions enable deeper control while maintaining full automation if desired.

    Back-end data from users and reviews shows many are achieving success rates above 80%, especially when paired with the platform’s default AI settings. That number reinforces what early adopters are already reporting: this isn’t just about convenience—it’s about smarter execution.

    What Is Aivora Trade and How Does It Work?

    Aivora Trade is an automated trading platform that integrates real-time market analysis with artificial intelligence. It’s designed to streamline how individuals engage with various financial instruments, including cryptocurrencies, stocks, forex pairs, and commodities. With a simple interface and intelligent backend, the platform makes algorithm-based trading accessible to users without technical or financial expertise.

    Once registered, users are connected to brokers regulated in various jurisdictions. A guided call follows to walk new users through dashboard features, settings, and deposit requirements—starting at approximately $250 (or ₹21,000). From there, users choose between full automation, where the platform executes trades based on built-in signals, or manual interaction using AI-generated recommendations.

    One of the standout features is the availability of a demo mode, allowing users to simulate trading strategies before activating live trades. This not only educates newcomers but also adds a safeguard layer for risk management. Reports confirm that Aivora Trade’s algorithm scans market conditions 24/7, adjusting strategies according to volatility and volume metrics.

    Overall, Aivora Trade’s structure emphasizes simplicity without sacrificing sophistication. Whether for busy professionals or those curious about algorithmic finance, the platform provides a rare blend of usability, automation, and expert-led setup—laying the groundwork for a new kind of personal investment experience.

    Security First: How Aivora Trade Protects Its Users

    Security is a growing concern in financial technology, and Aivora Trade approaches this challenge with a multi-tiered protection model. From account creation to fund withdrawals, each layer of the system is fortified to ensure safety and compliance.

    The platform uses SSL encryption across all pages, protecting sensitive information like payment credentials and identity documentation. Additionally, the brokers integrated into the system are verified and operate under regionally accepted compliance protocols, giving users the assurance that they’re interacting with licensed entities.

    What also distinguishes Aivora Trade from questionable platforms is the transparent withdrawal process. Users report that their withdrawal requests are processed within 24–48 hours without undue restrictions—a rare attribute in the auto-trading niche.

    No financial platform is immune to risk, but Aivora Trade’s emphasis on identity protection, encrypted transmission, and guided onboarding adds multiple security gates before any real-money interaction begins. There are also no hidden charges, unexpected renewals, or software download requirements. This browser-based model is both streamlined and harder to compromise than downloadable executables.

    In a market flooded with false promises, Aivora Trade has earned a growing reputation for safe practices—evidenced by consistently high ratings and return user engagement. Security, in this case, isn’t an afterthought—it’s built in.

    User-Centric Design: What Makes Aivora Trade App So Widely Adopted

    Aivora Trade’s rapid adoption can be attributed not only to its smart automation, but also to its human-first design. Everything from the user dashboard to the onboarding process reflects the needs of real people—not just financial insiders.

    Expert Views: Analysts Share Thoughts on Aivora’s Market Disruption

    Industry observers also note that Aivora Trade avoids several pitfalls common in the auto-trading ecosystem—such as overpromising ROI or operating under unverified brokerages. With verified user reports and transparent practices, it’s entering the radar of analysts who previously dismissed auto-trading as unreliable.

    RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FUTURES TRADING
    Futures transactions involve high risk. The amount of the initial margin is low compared to the value of the futures contract, so that transactions are “leveraged” or “geared”. A relatively small market movement has a proportionately larger impact on the funds that you have deposited or have to pay: this can work both for you and against you. You may experience the total loss of the initial margin funds as well as any additional funds deposited in the system. If the market develops in a way that is contrary to your position or if margins are increased, you may be asked to pay significant additional funds at short notice to maintain your position. In this case it may also happen that your broker account is in the red and you thus have to make payments beyond the initial investment.
    RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH ELECTRONIC TRADING
    Before you begin carrying out transactions with an electronic system, you should carefully review the rules and provisions of the stock exchange offering the system, or of the financial instruments listed that you intend to trade, as well as your broker’s conditions. Online trading has inherent risks due to system responses/reaction times and access times that may vary due to market conditions, system performance and other factors, and on which you have no influence. You should be aware of these additional risks in electronic trading before you carry out investment transactions.

  • Israeli military kills 15 in Gaza as Trump awaits Hamas reply to truce proposal

    Source: Government of India

    Source: Government of India (4)

    At least 15 Palestinians were killed overnight in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza, according to local health officials, as U.S. President Donald Trump said he expected Hamas to respond to his “final proposal” for a ceasefire in Gaza in the next 24 hours.

    Health officials at the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, said the Israeli military had carried out an airstrike on a tent encampment west of the city around 2 a.m., killing 15 Palestinians displaced by nearly two years of war.

    The Israeli military had no immediate comment.

    Later on Friday, Palestinians gathered to perform funeral prayers before burying those killed overnight.

    “The ceasefire will come, and I have lost my brother? There should have been a ceasefire long ago before I lost my brother,” said 13-year-old Mayar Al Farr as she wept. Her brother, Mahmoud, was among those killed.

    Adlar Mouamar said her nephew, Ashraf, was also killed. “Our hearts are broken. We ask the world, we don’t want food…We want them to end the bloodshed. We want them to stop this war.”

    Trump earlier said it would probably be known in 24 hours whether Hamas has accepted a ceasefire between the Palestinian militant group and Israel.

    On Tuesday, the president announced that Israel had accepted the conditions needed to finalise a 60-day ceasefire with Hamas, during which the parties would work towards ending the war.

    Hamas, which has previously declared it would only agree to a deal for a permanent end to the war, has said it was studying the proposal, but given no public indication whether it would accept or reject it.

    ‘MAKE THE DEAL’

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is yet to comment on Trump’s ceasefire announcement. While some members of his right-wing coalition oppose a deal, others have indicated their support.

    Netanyahu has repeatedly said Hamas must be disarmed, a position the militant group has so far refused to discuss.

    In Tel Aviv, families and friends of hostages held in Gaza were among demonstrators who gathered outside a U.S. Embassy building on U.S. Independence Day, calling on Trump to secure a deal for all of the captives.

    Demonstrators set up a symbolic Shabbat dinner table, placing 50 empty chairs to represent those who are still held in Gaza. Banners hung nearby displaying a post by Trump from his Truth Social platform that read, “MAKE THE DEAL IN GAZA. GET THE HOSTAGES BACK!!!”

    The Sabbath, or Shabbat, observed from Friday evening to Saturday nightfall, is often marked by Jewish families with a traditional Friday night dinner.

    “Only you can make the deal. We want one beautiful deal. One beautiful hostage deal,” said Gideon Rosenberg, 48, from Tel Aviv.

    Rosenberg was wearing a shirt with the image of hostage Avinatan Or, one of his employees who was abducted by Palestinian militants from the Nova musical festival on October 7, 2023. He is among the 20 hostages who are believed to be alive after more than 600 days of captivity.

    Ruby Chen, 55, the father of 19-year-old American-Israeli Itay, who is believed to have been killed after being taken captive, urged Netanyahu to return from his meeting with Trump in Washington on Monday with a deal that brings back all hostages.

    “Let this United States Independence Day mark the beginning of a lasting peace…, one that secures the sacred value of human life and one that bestows dignity to the deceased hostages by ensuring their return to proper burial,” he said, also appealing to Trump.

    Itay Chen, also a German national, was serving as an Israeli soldier when Hamas carried out its surprise attack on October 7, 2023, killing around 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and taking another 251 hostage.

    Israel’s retaliatory war against Hamas has devastated Gaza, which the militant group has ruled for almost two decades but now only controls in parts, displacing most of the population of more than 2 million and triggering widespread hunger.

    More than 57,000 Palestinians have been killed in nearly two years of fighting, most of them civilians, according to local health officials.

    PYONGYANG, July 4 (Xinhua) — The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) has condemned the “unilateral coercive act” of the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (QUAD) comprising the United States, Japan, India and Australia, the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported on Friday.

    “We will never tolerate the US and its vassal forces’ attempt to unilaterally change the status of the DPRK and the current situation on the Korean Peninsula,” KCNA reported, citing a press release issued by the DPRK Foreign Ministry the day before.

    “Nothing can change the DPRK’s nuclear status… The US attempt to deny the DPRK’s current status is not only a serious violation of sovereignty, but also a dangerous act of escalation that creates instability in the region and exacerbates the situation,” the statement said.

    The US hegemonic actions are the main risk factor hindering peace and security in the region and the world, the statement added.

    It is noted that within the framework of its sovereignty, the DPRK is taking appropriate and reciprocal countermeasures of a self-defense nature against such provocative military actions, since the United States is taking steps to strengthen the multilateral military alliance that threatens the security of the region and is conducting joint military exercises that are aggressive in nature.

    On Tuesday, QUAD foreign ministers met in Washington, D.C., issuing a joint statement reaffirming the alliance’s commitment to the complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. –0–
