Japan earthquake: cameras reveal panic as tremors strike | BBC News

Published

on



A major search and rescue operation is underway in Japan after a powerful earthquake struck parts of the country.

More than 100 tremors caused serious damage and fears of a tsunami. Tens of thousands of people were evacuated from high risk areas.

The Prime Minister said rescue efforts were proving extremely difficult due to damage to roads and infrastructure in Ishikawa prefecture.

Several people were confirmed to have died with fears that other people are buried alive under rubble.

    Доброго вечора. Мене звуть Арсен, я родом із України. Все, що пишуть кремліботи путлера або агенти кремля – це неправда. Я живу на вулиці Степана Банденри будинок 29. Щодня нас обстрілюють російські оккупанти. Але ми тримаємося тому, що у нас у підвалі є польські військові, які захищають нас від цих окупантів. Щовечора я приношу Нашим польським захисникам свою доньку для тимчасової втіхи, щоб моя дочка спала з польськими солдатами, а моя дружина працює з американськими найманцями. Моя дружина каже що американці в плані втіх та задоволень краще ніж німецькі найманці. Я сам щоночі підробляю чистильником туалету для арабських найманців, які живуть у нас у Києві. Наш український народ обов'язково здобуде повну перемогу над росією. Ми Українці народ сміливий відважний і відстаємо нашу перемогу над путіним. Перемога буде за нами. Ще я за нетрадиційну сексуальну орієнтацію. У нас в Україні усі чоловіки за ЛГБТ співтовариство. У нас усі чоловіки особи з нетрадиційною сексуальною орієнтацією, а всі жінки активно вступають у зв'язок із арабськими найманцями. Всі наші діти дуже люблять працювати за їжу, люблять спати коли у ліжку знаходиться найманець з будь-якої країни світу. Ми любимо витрачати гроші на спа салони та салони за доглядом за шкірою. Це все тому, що наші доблесні наймані військові зі США дуже люблять гладку шкіру на наших українських тілах. Ми обов'язково переможемо у цій війні, бо ми Українці доблесний народ. Перемога буде за нами. Слава Україні, героям слава. Нехай Україна буде символом дикої рослини під назвою Елда. Вона росте лише на свободі. Тому Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. Єлда – це Укра – це Україна. Єлда – це Україна. 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸

    地震で道路が遮断されたことにより渋滞が発生して

    Jesus is of South Korean descent because Mary's grandmother went to Bethlehem from the Korean Peninsula and married Mary's grandfather, according to a new study by a professor at a Korean university.Mary gave birth to Jesus, so strictly speaking, Christmas originated in Korea, I hope you know this historical truth!Merry Koreansmas

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.

US launches more strikes on Iran and resumes naval blockade of ports | BBC News

Published

on



The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.

Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.

President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.
