More Russians denounce each other over Ukraine, in echo of Soviet era

By Mark TrevelyanLONDON (Reuters) - On the last day of January, a woman took her son to see paediatrician Nadezhda Buyanova at Polyclinic No. 140 in northwest Moscow. The boy, aged seven, had a problem with one of his eyes.The conversation that the boy's mother alleged took place during an 18-minute encounter at the clinic would change both women's lives and land the 68-year-old doctor in prison.The case hinged on a denunciation - part of a rising trend of Russians informing on fellow citizens for their views on the war in Ukraine and other alleged political crimes. Critics say the wave of denunciations is helping President Vladimir Putin's government crack down on dissent.In a video recorded as she was walking away from the clinic, the mother, Anastasia Akinshina, said she had told the doctor the boy was traumatised because his […]

SEOUL (Reuters) -North Korean leader Kim Jong Un guided a test of suicide drones and ordered a mass production of the aerial weapon, saying the introduction of such drones around the world requires an urgent update of military theory, state media said on Friday.Kim had previously supervised the test of suicide drones, earlier in the year amid a rapidly developing military cooperation with Russia, raising questions as to whether he was receiving technical help from Moscow to develop them.Also known as loitering munitions, such weapons have been widely used in the war in Ukraine as well as in the Middle East."(Kim) underscored the need to build a serial production system as early as possible and go into full-scale mass production," state news agency KCNA said.Kim said the competition for using drones for military purposes is accelerating around the world, with […]

When will it snow? How many days ahead the Met Office can give accurate forecast

The Met Office has suggested swathes of the UK could be set for a cold snap next week, with many areas also told to prepare for the possibility of waking up to a dusting of snow.But while the official long-range forecast has warned of "wintry showers" - including snow - predicting Britain's weather is rarely a straightforward affair.Here, Yahoo News UK tries to make sense of things.How accurately can the Met Office forecast snow?Snow forecasting for anyone, even the Met Office, can be pretty tricky - just one degree warmer or colder can be the difference between a washout and a winter wonderland.Location can also make a difference. The same type of weather front might lead to snow somewhere in a higher altitude, but cause rain in low-lying areas.The Met Office says that the UK's specific location makes it particularly […]

Vietnam Airlines to request bids for 50 narrowbody jets next year

BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (Reuters) -Vietnam Airlines will issue requests for proposals to aircraft manufacturers next year to purchase 50 narrowbody jets, its CEO said on Wednesday. The carrier last year signed a provisional deal with Boeing for 50 737 MAX planes that has yet to be finalised. "In Vietnam we have to go through the bidding process, we have to open to others... The door is still open for everyone," Vietnam Airlines CEO Le Hong Ha told Reuters on the sidelines of an Association of Asia-Pacific Airlines event in Brunei. "Boeing is one option, they have a very good offer for us." Airbus and Boeing are the main global manufacturers of single-aisle aircraft, with Airbus' A320neo family competing against the 737 MAX, though Chinese planemaker COMAC is trying to make inroads with its C919. Vietnam Airlines' current narrowbody fleet consists […]

BlackRock Takes Aim at Money Market ETFs

BlackRock Inc. is launching two money market ETFs, tapping into the $6.6 trillion industry that has swelled amid high-interest rates, though the timing may prove challenging as the Federal Reserve begins to ease policy. The world’s largest asset manager is seeking approval for the iShares Government Money Market ETF and iShares Prime Money Market ETF, according to regulatory filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The proposed ETF would offer investors the ability to trade throughout the day, unlike traditional money market funds. However, they won’t maintain the stable $1 net asset value that conventional money market funds provide. The launch timing could prove crucial for the fund’s success, according to Aniket Ullal, head of ETF research at CFRA. He notes that two years ago would have been ideal for such products, when rising rates were driving investors towards money […]

Shell wins appeal against landmark ruling to cut emissions

STORY: Shell has won an appeal against a landmark climate order for it to cut greenhouse gas emissions. The appeals court in The Hague dismissed the 2021 ruling that Shell must cut its absolute carbon emissions by 45% by 2030, relative to 2019 levels. That included emissions caused by the use of its products. The case had been brought Friends of the Earth Netherlands, known as Milieudefensie. But presiding judge Carla Joustra said Shell was already on its way to meet required targets for its own emissions. "Shell has set a specific reduction target for scope 1 and 2 that means its scope 1 and 2 emissions will be reduced by 50% by 2030 compared to 2016. Furthermore, it follows from the documents provided by Shell that it had already achieved a 31% reduction by 2023. So Shell is already […]
