La Russie a repris mercredi sa participation à l’accord sur les exportations de céréales ukrainiennes après avoir reçu des “garanties écrites” de la part de l’Ukraine sur la démilitarisation du couloir utilisé pour leur transport.

Le président turc Recep Tayyip Erdogan, dont le pays est garant de cet accord crucial pour l’approvisionnement alimentaire mondial, a confirmé la reprise à partir de mercredi à la mi journée des exportations ukrainiennes en mer Noire via ce couloir sécurisé.

“La Russie considère que les garanties reçues jusqu’à présent semblent suffisantes et reprend la mise en oeuvre de l’accord”, a indiqué le ministère russe de la Défense sur Telegram.

Moscou avait suspendu samedi sa participation à l’accord céréalier après une attaque menée aux drones sur sa flotte basée en baie de Sébastopol, en Crimée annexée. L’armée russe a imputé cette opération à l’Ukraine avec l’aide “d’experts britanniques” et assuré qu’elle avait été menée notamment depuis le couloir maritime réservé aux exportations ukrainiennes.

Une série d’appels téléphoniques ces derniers jours entre responsables russes et turcs, notamment mardi entre M. Erdogan et le président Vladimir Poutine, et l’intercession de l’ONU, autre garant de l’accord, semble avoir convaincu Moscou de revoir sa position.

“Grâce à l’implication d’une organisation internationale, ainsi qu’à la coopération de la Turquie, des garanties écrites nécessaires ont été obtenues de la part de l’Ukraine sur la non-utilisation du couloir humanitaire et des ports ukrainiens désignés pour l’exportation de produits agricoles pour des actes hostiles contre la Russie”, a indiqué l’armée russe.

M. Erdogan a annoncé dans la foulée que les exportations reprenaient “comme avant” à partir de 9H00 GMT. “Suite à mon entretien avec Poutine hier, les expéditions de céréales se poursuivront à partir de midi aujourd’hui”, a-t-il déclaré.

“Protection fiable”

Les cargos chargés de céréales, au centre d’un enjeu mondial de sécurité alimentaire, étaient jusque-là en grande partie coincés dans les ports d’Ukraine depuis samedi.

Les Occidentaux avaient vivement dénoncé la suspension par Moscou de l’accord signé en juillet, tandis que Kiev avait dénoncé dans l’attaque de Sébastopol un “faux prétexte” et appelé à faire pression sur le Kremlin pour qu’il “respecte à nouveau ses engagements”.

“Le couloir céréalier a besoin d’une protection fiable et à long terme”, avait indiqué le président ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky mardi soir, menaçant Moscou d’une “réponse mondiale sévère à toute mesure qui perturbe nos exportations”.

La Russie avait riposté lundi en lançant une nouvelle vague de frappes massives sur les infrastructures critiques ukrainiennes, provoquant des coupures de l’approvisionnement en eau et électricité, notamment à Kiev.

L’opérateur ukrainien Ukrenergo a annoncé mercredi de nouvelles restrictions d’électricité, tandis que le maire de la capitale ukrainienne, Vitali Klitschko, a promis de déployer un millier de “points de chauffage” pour les habitants d’ici l’hiver.

M. Zelensky a précisé que les frappes russes avaient endommagé 40% des installations énergétiques ukrainiennes, ce qui a poussé le pays à stopper ses exportations vers l’UE, où les prix flambent.

Alors que Moscou et Téhéran continuent de nier des livraisons de drones de combat iraniens à l’armée russe, les Etats-Unis se sont dits mardi “préoccupés” par la potentielle livraison cette fois de missiles sol-sol iraniens.

Sur le front, l’état-major ukrainien a rapporté mercredi des combats surtout dans l’Est et des bombardements sur 25 localités dans l’Est, le centre et le Sud.

Le gouverneur de la région de Donetsk, dans l’Est, Pavlo Kyrylenko, a rapporté la mort de 4 civils ces dernières 24 heures.

Les journalistes de l’AFP ont constaté d’importantes destructions dans le village de Bilozirka, sur le front de Kherson, dans le Sud, la capitale régionale où les forces russes fortifient leurs positions en vue d’un prochain assaut ukrainien.

A Bilozirka, les forces russes tirent des salves depuis l’extrémité Sud de la route, où elles sont retranchées depuis leur retrait de ce village au cours du mois de mars.

“Au début, on ne pensait qu’au moment où ça allait enfin se terminer. Mais maintenant, cela semble normal. On s’y est habitué”, a raconté une habitante Angelika Boryssenko, âgée de 20 ans.

Les autorités d’occupation russe de la région de Kherson ont annoncé mardi de nouvelles évacuations de milliers d’habitants de cette zone, après avoir transféré près de 70.000 personnes la semaine dernière.

L’Ukraine dénonce ces évacuations comme des “déportations” de sa population par la Russie.

C1: éjecté de l’Europe, l’OM au bord de la crise

Black Immigrant Daily News

“On ne va pas se tirer les uns sur les autres, mais…” A l’image d’Amine Harit, terriblement amer après la défaite 2-1 contre Tottenham mardi, l’Olympique de Marseille a douloureusement vécu l’élimination en Ligue des champions, qui place l’entraîneur Igor Tudor sous une immense pression.

. “Une erreur qui fait mal”

Comment l’OM a-t-il pu laisser échapper la qualification pour la Ligue Europa que son match nul contre Tottenham lui offrait ? Les Marseillais avaient en mains ce qui n’est certes qu’un lot de consolation, mais qui ouvrait de nouvelles perspectives européennes en février.

En se jetant à l’assaut sans aucune maîtrise dans le temps additionnel, ils ont au contraire permis à Tottenham de marquer en contre à la 95e minute et se retrouvent sans rien.

Pourquoi les joueurs cadres n’ont-ils pas appelé au calme ? Savaient-ils que la victoire de Francfort contre le Sporting Portugal dans l’autre match leur garantissait alors la C3 ? Pourquoi Tudor n’a-t-il pas demandé à ses joueurs de se contenter de ce qu’ils avaient ?

“C’est un manque de communication flagrant”, a reconnu Harit. “On ne va pas se tirer les uns sur les autres, mais… Vous dire que je ne suis pas dégouté que l’info ne soit pas remontée jusqu’à nous, ce serait mentir.”

Même discours chez Matteo Guendouzi, qui a parlé de “résultat catastrophique”. “Si on avait su que Francfort gagnait, on ne serait pas parti à l’abordage, on aurait au moins gardé notre ligne défensive. Il y a eu une incompréhension et des erreurs de la part de tous. Il va falloir assumer”, a-t-il tranché.

Tudor s’est lui réfugié derrière “le bruit”, sans vraiment convaincre. “Ca n’a pas permis de bien expliquer aux garçons. Ils voulaient marquer”, a dit l’entraîneur marseillais.

. Trois fois quatrième

Si les circonstances sont particulières, cette défaite renvoie l’OM à une place à laquelle il est habitué en Ligue des champions, la quatrième et dernière, comme en 2013 et 2020 lors de ses deux dernières participations.

La défaite de mardi est aussi une mauvaise nouvelle au plan économique puisqu’une qualification en C1 aurait permis de faire entrer au moins entre 15 et 20 millions d’euros supplémentaires dans les caisses.

Les deux victoires face au Sporting ont tout de même redonné un peu de dignité européenne à l’OM, qui a mis fin à une pénible et embarrassante série de défaites en C1. L’approche des matchs a aussi été positive, Marseille ne tremblant pas devant Tottenham, ni à l’aller ni au retour, et se montrant globalement à la hauteur de la compétition.

Et l’OM est vraiment passé tout près, avec cette tête facile de Kolasinac pourtant manquée à la 87e minute. “S’il la met, on est en Ligue des champions”, a résumé Tudor.

Difficile donc d’être définitif quant au niveau réel de l’OM, qui est passé de tout à rien en cinq minutes. Mais le constat factuel demeure, Marseille a fini 4e d’un groupe sans terreurs et risque de regretter la Ligue Europa, une épreuve à son échelle.

. Pression avant le Mondial

A 10 jours de l’arrêt des championnats pour laisser place à la Coupe du Monde, la position de Tudor se révèle extrêmement précaire avant la réception de Lyon dimanche et le déplacement à Monaco le 13 novembre.

Choix fort du président Pablo Longoria, dont la responsabilité est logiquement engagée elle-aussi, le technicien croate doit absolument prendre des points face à ces deux rivaux directs pour la qualification en Ligue des champions, deux équipes aux airs de faiseurs de crise.

Car l’OM est en difficulté aussi en Championnat, avec un seul point pris lors des quatre dernières journées.

Entraîneur jeune, Tudor a des idées claires mais sa lecture des matches a semblé défaillante ces derniers temps, avec des changements douteux et des deuxièmes périodes régulièrement souffreteuses. Il doit aussi gérer le mal-être de Gerson et tenter de relancer Payet, qu’il utilise très peu.

“Le seul moyen de sortir de cette spirale négative, c’est d’aborder le match de dimanche avec les crocs”, a jugé Harit. “On n’a plus d’excuses. On a juste à remonter au classement et à faire une belle saison de L1”.

Tropical Storm Lisa formed this morning in the Caribbean Sea and is expected to make landfall in Belize later this week 

BELIZE CITY, Mon. Oct. 31, 2022

The National Hydrological Service has informed the public that rivers across the country are expected to possibly rise to the flood stage with the passing of Tropical Storm Lisa, which is expected to make landfall between Wednesday and Thursday. Waterways in most areas are expected to continue receding (after their levels peaked due to recent floods) and to remain at relatively normal levels until rains from Tropical Storm Lisa increase the level of those waterways to the flood stage.

In Region 7 the Rio Hondo and the New River are both expected to remain at above-normal levels, with an expected increase later in the week. In Region 9 on the Mopan, Macal, and Belize Rivers and the Crooked Tree Lagoon, waters are receding, but these areas are expected to become flooded with the passage of TS Lisa.

In Region 11, over the next two days, the Sibun River and Southern Lagoon are projected to continue receding. Decreasing water levels are expected in the eastern slopes of the Mayan Mountain and Sittee River at Kendal Bridge as well. The Monkey River, Deep River, and Rio Grande were expected to be below normal levels and to be decreasing as well. Those areas are expected to become more flooded with the passage of TS Lisa.

And in Region 13, the Sarstoon River will remain at a normal level for now, but is also expected to increase to the flood stage level once the storm passes.

Cops ‘capture’ person of interest in Slickianna’s killing Loop Jamaica

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Jamaica News Loop News

The police have “captured” Rushane “Chizzie” Patterson, the person of interest in the killing of social media influencer, Aneka ‘Slickianna’ Townsend.

In a tweet early Wednesday, the Jamaica Constabulary Force said Patterson was arrested at a guest house in Hanover shortly after 1am on Wednesday.

He was listed as a person of interest shortly after Townsend’s body was fished from the sea in Reading, St James on October 21.

However, despite being given a time to report to the police, he did not show.

Just yesterday (Tuesday), the police revealed that Patterson had indicated his intent to report to them on Thursday.

The announcement was made by Deputy Commissioner of Police in charge of the crime and security portfolio, Fitz Bailey, at a police media briefing.

At the time, Bailey described the investigations as being at a “delicate” stage but confirmed that a lawyer had reached out to him.

“… What I will say to the public is that we are actively pursuing the matter.

“In fact, I can say this publicly that an attorney reached out to me and indicated that he will take him (Patterson) in on Thursday of this week,” the deputy commissioner advised on Tuesday.

However, Patterson was nabbed by the police in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, a day earlier than the attorney intended.

The police reported that the body of 35-year-old Townsend was fished from the sea in Reading, St James on October 21.

Investigators said her body was found in a semi-nude state with what appeared to be a wound to the head.

The woman was positively identified as the social media influencer by a relative a day after the body was found.

An Ill Wind From the North?

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Antigua News Room

DECLARATION OF THE UNEAC APONTE COMMISSION.

An unusual event recently occurred in the city of Holguín. According to testimonies circulating on social networks, a group of young people went out into the street after celebrating Halloween in a space they rented, at the end of their party, they went to the street hooded in white with the insignia of the KKK and a cross, with aggressive and provocative shouts like “Where are the blacks?”.

Our society cannot allow this to be done, with impunity, and in the name of freedom of expression. Our Aponte Commission, made up of writers, artists and researchers from all over the country, strongly condemns the racist and ethically detestable behavior of the organizers and participants in this demonstration that has nothing to do with our culture and identity, much less with the values ​​that we advocate. in building a better society.

We demand the criminal responsibilities that the organizers and participants in this act of violence deserve, for violating the right to equality, provided for and sanctioned in the Penal Code.

As a people, with an identity in a constant process of assimilation of new foreign influences, at the same time that we contribute more and more, from the Cuban culture, to the universal culture and to that of different nearby and distant peoples, aware that globalization is a objective process of civilization, we do not condemn the holiday of Halloween; however, we reaffirm that it is not part of our cultural heritage, that, from it, we can integrate what is identified with our habits, customs and traditions, as has happened with other cultural manifestations of the most diverse origins, including the Anglo-Saxon.

Let’s not copy by force, a festivity that is not part of our idiosyncrasy. From the Anglo-Saxon north we received many cultural contributions that we assimilated and transculturated in our own way.

Today we are creators of a Latin Jazz and a Cuban Jazz, which did not arise in New Orleans but in our halls. We cultivate the filin that is not exactly the feeling. We have a Cuban Rap and a Hip Hop culture not copied from New York, but born from the sentiment of our city neighborhoods. Our rodeo in the Cuban fields are not of blond cowboys with Texan hats, but of peasants with yarey hats, tanned by the tropical sun. We cannot colonize ourselves. We have a strong and rich culture, which is the sword and shield of the nation and that we have and must save, to save ourselves as a nation and as a people.

Nor should a holiday, whatever its origin, be mixed with racial hatred.

Halloween, although not ours, is not a racist tradition and it is an act against culture, to tarnish it with a felony like the one that occurred.

In Cuba we do not have several peoples, nor are we multiethnic, we are ethnologically one people: the Cuban, and anthropologically, an ethnos-nation. We are genetically and culturally mestizo, we are inclusive and our phenotypic diversity makes us diverse in appearance, but we are unique in our essence.

Racism, although historically present in the four colonial centuries and the 60 years of neocolony, is not compatible with the nation project that we started in 1868 or with our mestizo essence. In the last 63 years of our historical evolution, we have built a new society, which seeks a new man and a new woman, and socialism is inconsistent with racism and any form of discrimination.

They are intolerable and repudiable, acts of discrimination and hatred in a society that we build with love, brotherhood and unity.

NADS Official Urges Motorcyclists To Take Road Safety Seriously – St. Lucia Times News

Black Immigrant Daily News

The Public Relations Officer of the National Association of Driving Schools (NADS) has urged motorcyclists to take road safety seriously against the backdrop of recent fatal collisions involving bikers.

“Motorcyclists have to take personal responsibility. They have to realse that their safety is their responsibility,” Kingson Jean said.

In that regard, Jean said motorcyclists should always protect themselves while riding.

“They have to ride for the slide, so they should always have their gloves, boots, pants, and jackets, but most importantly – always have a helmet because your head is the most sensitive part of your body,” he explained.

The NADS official observed that a head injury could lead to paralysis or death.

And he recalled recent fatal motorcycle accidents in which riders were not wearing helmets.

“Your head is like an egg when you hit that road. It will crack,” Jean asserted.

He disclosed that his son would receive a motorcycle next year but already has his safety gear, including a helmet and gloves.

“That’s the first thing you should have then worry about the motorcycle,” Jean told St Lucia Times.

He also spoke of the need for motorcyclists to ride safely and watch their speed, mindful that it is sometimes difficult for drivers to see them.

He said motorcycle owners should practise and ensure the bikes are appropriately registered and insured.

At the same time, Jean urged drivers to be on the lookout for motorcyclists.

He observed that November 1 marked the commencement of the United Nations-designated Road Safety Month.

However, the NADS official said he still needed to see road safety Public Service Announcements and a road safety campaign rollout from the Department of Transport.

At the same time, he acknowledged that NADS has not participated in any road safety activity in the last two years.

“We, too, have a part to play in road safety,” he explained.
