Published

on



Aerial images capture the scale of floods in China’s Henan province, showing stranded cars and roads still substantially under water.

Twelve people were killed after record-breaking rainfall flooded underground railway tunnels in the city of Zhengzhou, leaving passengers trapped in rising waters.

More than 500 people were eventually rescued from the tunnels in Henan province, officials said.

Days of rain have caused widespread damage and led to some 400,000 evacuations.

    ACCORDING TO NEWS OUTLETS—THE EXTENT OF THIS FLOOD IS AN END RESULT OF THE AMOUNT OF DAMNS CHINA IS BUILDING. I took XIJINGPING for being smarter then the HISTORY OF THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT & the ARAL SEA. IF CHINESE LEADERSHIP DOES NOT WISE UP they will go broke from ENVIRONMENTAL DISASTERS—all a result from FLEXING TOO MUCH MUSCLE. I try to give advice and help. I LIKE THE CHINESE PEOPLE. Watch some BEWITCHED and take in SOME ENDORA please.

    So there is massive flooding in China. What else is new? This is THE most polluted country on the planet and for me, this is climate karma. You f*uck up the environment like China and Mother Nature will take her own back. Yes, it's called karma. As for the comments about the BBC. People, please get it into your thick heads. The BBC is the oldest and most open and democratic broadcasting corporation on the plenty bar none!! Live with it!!

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
