Israeli occupier attacks threaten historic Christian presence in West Bank town

In Taybeh, one of the few Palestinian communities with a Christian majority in the occupied West Bank, fears are growing that Israeli occupier attacks on farmland and property could push more families to emigrate, threatening the town’s demographic character and historic Christian presence. Local officials and clergy warned of the impact of rising violence by Israeli occupiers, which has coincided with worsening living and economic conditions in the town. Taybeh, east of Ramallah, is one of the few Palestinian towns in the West Bank that still has a Christian majority, according to church and local accounts. Residents say the town’s Christian roots go back thousands of years. Residents say the attacks have deepened fears in the town, even as they stress their determination to remain on their land.

Who is Brandon Biggs? The pastor who predicted Trump’s assassination bid

An old video of a Christian pastor predicting an assassination attempt on Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has resurfaced on social media. The attempt occurred earlier today, mirroring the details described in the video, which was posted three months ago. Donald Trump, 78, was struck by a bullet in the upper part of his right ear when a suspected shooter fired multiple shots at his election rally in Pennsylvania. Hours after the attack, many X users posted the clip of Brandon Biggs’s prophecy video, originally shared on YouTube on 15 March 2024. Biggs claimed the Lord told him about future events in the US. “God said, I am not done with America,” Biggs stated. “I saw an attempt on his (Donald Trump) life, this bullet flew by his ear and it came so close to his head that it busted his eardrum, and I saw he fell to his knees during this timeframe and started worshiping the Lord,” Biggs can be heard saying in the viral video. “I also saw Donald Trump become really on fire for Jesus. I also saw him winning the presidency,” he added. The pastor also predicted an economic crash in the US following the presidential elections. “I saw a great economic crash coming soon after, which will be the worst in the country’s history. The Lord told me that it would be a great dark time,” Biggs predicted. Later in the video, Biggs said he saw Trump and others in the Oval Office crying out to the Lord, with the financial crisis lifting off the country and the Lord’s blessing returning to America. The shooter, identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, was crawling on the roof of a manufacturing plant over 130 yards away from the stage. He was eventually killed by US Secret Service officers after the shooting incident. The FBI is still working to determine the motive behind the attack. The assassination attempt took place while Donald Trump was addressing his followers at a rally in Butler on Saturday. He grimaced and ducked before being rushed off-stage by US Secret Service personnel. Blood was seen on Trump’s face as he claimed a bullet pierced the upper part of his right ear.

At least 32 miners dead after bridge fails at cobalt site in southeast DR Congo

A bridge collapsed at a cobalt mine in southeast Democratic Republic of Congo killing at least 32 wildcat miners, a regional government official said Sunday. The bridge came down Saturday onto a flooded zone at the mine in Lualaba province, Roy Kaumba Mayonde, the provincial interior minister, told reporters. He said 32 bodies had been recovered and more were being searched for. The DRC produces more than 70 percent of the world supply of cobalt, which is essential for batteries used in electric cars, many laptop computers and mobile phones. More than 200,000 people are estimated to be working in giant illegal cobalt mines in the giant central African country. Local authorities said the bridge collapsed at the Kalando mine, about 42 kilometres (26 miles) southeast of the Lualaba provincial capital, Kolwezi. "Despite a formal ban on access to the site because of the heavy rain and the risk of a landslide, wildcat miners forced their way into the quarry," said Mayonde. He said ...

Indian devotees splurge on jets, gold idols as Hindu temple opens

The private jet parking lots at airports near the Indian city of Ayodhya are full and the shops have run out of gold-plated idols, as wealthy devotees prepare for the invite-only opening ceremony of one of Hinduism's holiest temples. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Asia's richest man Mukesh Ambani are among the 8,000 or so attendees at Monday's inauguration event for the Ram Temple, which devotees believe is built on the birthplace of Lord Ram, a sacred Hindu deity. The construction of the temple, which began after the Supreme Court awarded the site to Hindus in 2019 more than two decades after a Hindu mob razed a mosque there, triggering deadly riots, fulfils a key campaign promise of Modi and his Hindu nationalist party.

Indian opposition supporters detained ahead of protest at Modi's home

Police in the Indian capital detained dozens of opposition supporters on Tuesday as they attempted to march to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's residence to protest against last week's arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. Kejriwal, a key opposition leader whose Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has governed the national capital territory for a decade, was arrested by the financial crime-fighting agency on corruption charges relating to the city's liquor policy, weeks before India begins voting in general elections on April 19. He was remanded to the custody of the Enforcement Directorate until March 28, with the lawyer for the agency arguing he was the "kingpin" in the case and needed to be interrogated. Kejriwal's party, all of whose main leaders are now imprisoned in connection with the case, says he has been "falsely arrested" in a "fabricated case". The federal government and Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) deny political interfere...
