STORYLINE:
Supporters of Pakistan’s former Prime Minister Imran Khan celebrated in Lahore on Saturday after he was granted broad protection from arrest in multiple legal cases against him.
The ruling at a high court in Islamabad struck a blow to the government in a stand-off that has sparked days of rioting by Khan's followers and raised the spectre of widespread unrest in the country.
After the court granted him bail, Khan spent hours more in the building, as he and his legal team were locked in apparent negotiations over his exit from the site.
As he headed to his home in the eastern city of Lahore, Khan put out a video statement from his vehicle saying the Islamabad police tried to keep him within the courthouse through different tactics, and authorities allowed him to travel only when he threatened to tell the public he was being held there against his will.
Security was extremely tight around the court ahead of Khan’s departure as authorities expressed concerns for the former leader’s safety.
In the evening, shots were heard in the area of the courthouse.
Police were investigating who opened fire, the interior minister said.
Clashes between his supporters and police have periodically erupted outside the building.
The long list of around 100 court cases, on charges ranging from fomenting violence to corruption, still stands against Khan.
But the week’s turmoil illustrated the danger of moving against him.
After he was abruptly arrested on Tuesday, wide scale protests erupted, turning into clashes with police and mob attacks on government buildings and even military installations.
The court's ruling was a victory for Khan, and averted any new arrest for the time being.
The Islamabad High Court gave him protection for two weeks on one graft charge and protection until Monday on a host of other charges in a measure called “anticipatory bail.”
The protections in each case can be extended, but it was not immediately clear if that meant a new court hearing on Monday.
The charismatic 70-year-old Khan, a former cricket star turned Islamist politician, has a broad base of support around Pakistan, presenting himself as an outsider victimised by the military and the political dynasties that have long run Pakistan.
Opponents, meanwhile, call him a corrupt demagogue stirring his followers into violence.

Islamabad, Pakistan - 12 May 2023
1. Various of Pakistan's former Prime Minister Imran Khan coming out of courtroom with tight security, lawyers, media around
STORYLINE:
A high court in Islamabad has granted former Prime Minister Imran Khan a two-week reprieve from arrest in a graft case and granted him bail on the charge.
Babar Awan, a lawyer for Khan, says the court made the decision on Friday, a day after the country’s Supreme Court asked it for a ruling.
He says Khan is now “a free man,” and that the decision was just.
The ruling came after Khan returned to court to hear whether he will be shielded from renewed arrest or taken back into custody — a decision that put the government and legions of Khan supporters on edge after days of violent confrontations.
The government has vowed it will find a way to take Khan back into custody, a move that would likely cause a resurgence of riots and mob attacks.
The government contends that Khan’s release rewards and encourages mob violence.
After he was arrested Tuesday, his supporters attacked military installations, burned vehicles, and ambulances and looted general stores in various parts of the country.
The government responded with a crackdown, arresting nearly 3,000 people.
The violence left at least 10 Khan supporters dead. Dozens of protesters and more than 200 police officers were injured.

STORYLINE:
Florida school shooter Nikolas Cruz will be sentenced to life without parole for the 2018 murder of 17 people at Parkland's Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, after the jury said Thursday that it could not unanimously agree that he should be executed.
The jury's recommendation came after seven hours of deliberations over two days, ending a three-month trial that included graphic videos, photos and testimony from the massacre and its aftermath, heart-wrenching testimony from victims' family members and a tour of the still blood-spattered building.
Under Florida law, a death sentence requires a unanimous vote on at least one count.
Circuit Judge Elizabeth Scherer will formally issue the sentence later.
Cruz, his hair unkempt, largely sat hunched over and stared at the table as the jury's recommendations were read.
Rumblings grew from the family section — packed with about three dozen parents, spouses and other relatives of the victims — as life sentences were announced.
Many shook their heads, looked angry or covered their eyes.
Cruz, 24, pleaded guilty a year ago to murdering 14 students and three staff members and wounding 17 others on Feb. 14, 2018.

"Well, he has been a role model from Day One. He was someone who was extremely positive. So, when we worked on the first movie, we got a feeling of how important it is to be true to these stories and to give everything we have. Nothing has changed. And especially now that he's not with us, I still feel him. Yeah, there's not a single day where I'm not thinking of him. And anytime I hear 'Black Panther,' I think of him. And that's good. That's a positive thing,
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Alex Livinalli and Mabel Cadena, actors:
Livinalli: "His presence was felt that he wasn't there physically, but he was there. And that's important."
Cadena: "But you know something? I think for him, I'm here, because he opened a lot of doors. He opened the world. And I think I'm really grateful because Chadwick was a really important, you know, symbol in this in this world, in the industry, inside the industry. And, for him, people like me now can dream to be a superhero."
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Winston Duke, actor:
"We felt his presence every single day and we felt the lack of having him there every single day. He was a very powerful and gentle leader that didn't need to say much for you to know that he was the lead of the movie. And with people like that, you feel them so much more when they're not there."

Villagers in Iraq's Kurdish region use grapes to make a traditional sweet treat that comes plain or stuffed with nuts.
Grapes grow in abundance in this area and the village of Sargalu alone has produced 1,000 tons of black grapes this year.
STORYLINE:
Some of the bluish-colored grapes harvested by villagers in the Kurdish region of Iraq will not end up in fruit bowls, and will be used to make tasty treats instead.
Because of their elongated shape, the traditional sweets are known locally as grape sujuk, or grape sausage.
The treat, which is made from natural ingredients only, comes in many variations and can either be plain or stuffed with nuts.
At his shop in Sulaymaniyah, Shad Kamal slices one open to reveal the pistachios carefully tucked away inside.
At the end of the grape harvest season in September, families in the nearby villages gather to make the sweet treats at home.
After selling some grapes, the villagers use the excess fruit to make the famous treat.
Buckets of black grapes are placed in sacks and crushed by foot to extract all the juice.
Some of the juice is heated in large pots and the remaining juice is incorporated into a flour mixture.
The flour mixture is slowly added to the pots until the liquid thickens and reaches the right consistency.

12. Various of Aloni and technology
13. SOUNDBITE (English) Sharone Aloni, VP R&D of Smart Shooter:
"Inside here, you have the computer running all the artificial intelligence computer vision algorithms, which make this what we call a true fire control system. It's not only just relying on static information. It actually considers the human, the soldier, which is not stable. He's under pressure. He's tired. Sometimes he didn't get enough training. And also, the target is usually dynamic means it doesn't stay in place and it's moving all the time. And the idea is, how do we take all these different types of information, calculate everything inside the system itself, in order to provide a highly accurate impact point. And I will just assist the soldier in firing only at the right time, only at the right place, in order to actually hit what needs to be hit and do not hit anything that we do not want to hit."

15. SOUNDBITE (English) Sharone Aloni, VP R&D of Smart Shooter:
"Again, it is very important to note that the systems are not automatic, meaning there is always a human soldier in the loop, and he needs to actually press the trigger. The system will never fire on its own, and that's a major item to remember."
16. Various of Smart Shooter technology
17. SOUNDBITE (English) Michal Mor, Smart Shooter CEO and founder:
"Coming from the world of precise missiles, SmartShooter's fire control systems try to achieve two main goals. The first goal is to protect our soldiers by enhancing the distance between them and the situation. The second goal is to reduce collateral damage, what we call in the military language, which is avoiding the hit of innocent bystanders in the situation. We do that by making sure that the soldier has a very precise hit only on legitimate targets. And we do it by using less firepower. Imagine that instead of using a missile, we are using a 556 caliber."

And also, the target is usually dynamic means it doesn't stay in place and it's moving all the time. And the idea is, how do we take all these different types of information, calculate everything inside the system itself, in order to provide a highly accurate impact point. And I will just assist the soldier in firing only at the right time, only at the right place, in order to actually hit what needs to be hit and do not hit anything that we do not want to hit."

The second goal is to reduce collateral damage, what we call in the military language, which is avoiding the hit of innocent bystanders in the situation. We do that by making sure that the soldier has a very precise hit only on legitimate targets. And we do it by using less firepower. Imagine that instead of using a missile, we are using a 556 caliber."

STORYLINE:
Two judges on India's top court on Thursday differed over a ban on the wearing of the hijab, a headscarf used by Muslim women, in educational institutions and referred the sensitive issue to a larger bench of three or more judges to settle.
Justices Hemant Gupta and Sudhanshu Dhulia issued a split ruling after hearing petitions filed by a group of Muslims against a high court’s judgment in Karnataka state. The state court had refused to stay a government order issued in February that banned people from wearing clothes that disturb equality, integrity and public order in schools and colleges.
Karnataka State Education Minister B.C. Nagesh said Thursday the ban on wearing the hijab in educational institutions in the state would continue until the top court settled the issue of whether the Muslim headscarf is an essential religious practice in Islam.
The dispute began early this year when a government-run school in Karnataka’s Udupi district barred students wearing hijabs from entering classrooms, triggering protests by Muslims who said they were being deprived of their fundamental rights to education and religion.
Hindu students launched counter-protests by wearing saffron shawls, a color closely associated with that religion and favored by Hindu nationalists.
More schools in the state followed with similar bans and the state’s high court disallowed students from wearing hijab and any other religious clothing. The Muslim groups petitioned the Supreme Court against the ban.
Supreme Court Justice Gupta on Thursday said there was a divergent opinion and that the matter should be referred to a larger bench of more than two judges. He dismissed the appeal by Muslim groups against the government order.
However, Justice Dhulia said venturing into essential religious practice was not needed and the state high court had taken the wrong way. “It was just a question of choice. One thing which was topmost for me was the education of a ... child,” he said.
During the arguments, the petitioners insisted that preventing Muslim girls from wearing the hijab in the classroom would jeopardize their educations since they might stop attending school.
The state government, however, claimed that its order banning the hijab in classrooms was “religion-neutral.”

MINKA KELLY MEMOIR 'TELL ME EVERYTHING' COMING OUT MAY 2023
Minka Kelly wants her fans to know that her life is not just a story of success.
The actor and model known for "Friday Night Lights," "Titans" and "Euphoria" among other shows is working on a book that publisher Henry Holt and Company calls "a gripping memoir of family, forgiveness, and the importance of finding inner strength." Holt announced Wednesday (12 OCT. 2022) that "Tell Me Everything" is scheduled to come out May 2.
According to Holt, the 42-year-old Kelly "will speak openly about her upbringing as the daughter of a single mother" and "the cycles of violence and hardship inherited by the women around her." In a statement issued through her publisher, Kelly called the book a tribute to her mother and to all working-class single mothers.
"I had to ask myself, can I actually be brave enough to be seen as I am, or am I more comfortable fulfilling everyone else's idea of who I should be?'" she said. "The desire to tell my story on my own terms felt important."

ANNOTATION: The verdict came in a defamation lawsuit filed by the relatives of children, three educators and an FBI agent who was among the first responders.
8. David and Francine Wheeler, Sandy Hook parents, listening to verdict
STORYLINE:
Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones has been ordered by a Connecticut jury to pay $965 million to people who suffered from his false claim that the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting was a hoax.
The verdict is the second big judgment against the Infowars host for claiming the massacre was staged.
Los Angeles attorney Tre Lovell says the judgment is large, but not surprising.
It came in a lawsuit filed by the relatives of eight victims. An FBI agent who responded to the shooting was also a plaintiff
"It was a strikingly high figure, certainly for defamation cases, but I wasn't that surprised in the sense that Jones really dug his own grave on this. He got himself caught in a default situation where he he they they chose through their litigation tactics to get in trouble, get default and go straight to damages," said Lovell.
Jones now believes the shooting was real, but he says he had a right to publicly question whether it happened.
A Texas jury in August ordered Jones to pay $50 million to the parents of another slain child.
"It does have implications for freedom of speech, but I think they're good," said Lovell. "This kind of puts a beacon out there that beware if you knowingly hurt or you're certainly reckless in your acquisition of facts and confirmations. You may be liable."

11. Crowd waving flags
12. Giant effigy of Lula amid supporters
STORYLINE:
Brazilian presidential candidate Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva campaigned alongside thousands of supporters Wednesday through the streets of the Alemao favela in northern Rio de Janeiro.
Da Silva is hoping to strengthen his popularity among Brazil's poor just two weeks before his runoff against incumbent Jair Bolsonaro.
Lula was accompanied by Rio's mayor, Eduardo Paes, and community leader Rene Silva, a Black activist and founder of a well-established news outlet that focuses on the city's working-class neighborhoods.
While he won the first round of the election with over 48% of the votes – against 43% for Bolsonaro – the leftist Workers' Party candidate trails more than 10 points behind in the state of Rio.
In the favelas and outskirts of large Brazilian cities, however, da Silva has regained much of the ground his party had lost in recent years, according to results from the first election round held on October 2.
The Alemão favela is one of Rio's largest, with some 60,000 residents, according to official records, but unofficially the number who live there is double that.
Some 63% of the favela residents earn no more than minimum wage, R$1.238 (USD $230), a month, according to IBASE (Social and Economic Analyses Brazilian Institute).

STORYLINE:
Dozens of residents of the devastated eastern Ukrainian city of Izium gathered to receive food packages and other aid on Wednesday as electricity, gas and running water remained cut off in the city following a long occupation by Russian forces.
"We need food. We took bread because we have no bread. We have no money to buy it," said Izium resident Nataliya Lytovchenko.
Volunteers distributed bread, apples, toiletries and other necessities as people scrambled to receive the much-needed aid.
Few stores are operating in Izium, and many of those who have stayed in the city have little money to purchase necessary goods.
"We try to prepare firewood, we warm the windows. we cover everything, I want to warm up," said Izium resident Maryna Kozar.
Izium served as a hub for Russian soldiers for nearly seven months before being recaptured by Ukrainian forces in a rapid counteroffensive in the Kharkiv region in early September.
Few of the buildings in the city survived without being damaged or destroyed by artillery, missiles or fires, and an investigation by The Associated Press found that at least 10 torture sites were maintained in the city by the Russians.
Residents on Wednesday browsed through boxes and crates of donated clothing on the town's central square, preparing for colder weather that is coming even as many homes have damaged roofs and windows and no electricity or gas for heating.

Kiev, Ucrania - 12 de octubre de 2022
Las sirenas antiaéreas se escucharon en Kiev por tercer día consecutivo el miércoles, mientras las autoridades aconsejaban a sus ciudadanos abastecerse de agua y ahorrar la energía.
Los ataques a la capital ucraniana de hace dos días han interrumpido la relativa calma que había vuelto a esta ciudad desde las primeras semanas de la guerra.
Los ataques con misiles rusos del lunes en las principales ciudades mataron al menos a 19 personas.
Algunos ataques impactaron en el corazón de la capital, cerca de donde se encuentran el parlamento y otros puntos de referencia importantes.
Algunos habitantes de Kiev salieron el miércoles a rezar al Monasterio de San Miguel de las Cúpulas Doradas así como al muro del monumento a los soldados caídos del país.
SONIDO (inglés) Veniamin Kofanov, dentista de Kiev:
"Creo que pueden ser más peligrosos usando sus misiles. Antes de ayer los usaron para golpear la infraestructura más crítica en Ucrania, para apagar la electricidad, para apagar el calentamiento y todo. No me asusta el arma nuclear, no creo que la vayan a usar."

Gadera, Israel - 12 October 2022
1. Wide of soldiers firing in air
2. Various of coffin laying ceremony
3. Various of family and soldiers mourning the killing of Staff Sergeant Ido Baruch, 21
4. Various of flowers on grave surrounded by mourners
STORYLINE:
Mourners gathered for the funeral of an Israeli soldier who was killed Tuesday in a drive-by shooting in the northern West Bank.
The shooting of 21-year old Staff Sgt. Ido Baruch was the latest in a wave of deadly Israeli-Palestinian violence in the area.
It came days after a female Israeli soldier was killed at a checkpoint in east Jerusalem, and 24 hours after a 12-year-old Palestinian boy died of wounds sustained in an Israeli military raid in the occupied West Bank.
Israel has been carrying out nightly arrest raids across the West Bank since a spate of attacks against Israelis in the spring killed 19 people.
Most of that activity has been focused in the northern West Bank.
Israeli fire has killed more than 100 Palestinians during that time, making it the deadliest year in the occupied territory since 2015.
The Israeli military says the vast majority of those killed were militants or stone-throwers who endangered the soldiers.
But several civilians have also been killed during Israel's months long operation, including a veteran journalist and a lawyer who apparently drove unwittingly into a battle zone.
Local youths who took to the streets in response to the invasion of their neighborhoods have also been killed.
At least three Israeli soldiers also have died.
Israel says the arrest raids are meant to dismantle militant networks.
The Palestinians say the operations have undermined their own security forces and are aimed at strengthening Israel's 55-year military occupation of territories they want for an independent state.
The army said Tuesday's shooting happened near the Jewish settlement of Shavei Shomron, a few kilometers (miles) northwest of the Palestinian city of Nablus.
It said the soldiers were attacked by a pair of assailants in a vehicle who fled the scene.

Washington DC - 12 October 2022
1. Cutaway of Sen. RIchard Blumenthal and Rep. Ro Khanna walking in for press conference
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Sen. Richard Blumenthal, (D) Connecticut:
"One of the consequences should be a temporary halt in arm sales. This one year pause in sales of all arms, repairs, supplies, support really is in defense of our national interests and security interests."
3. Cutaway
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Sen. Richard Blumenthal, (D) Connecticut:
"The Saudis need to come to their senses. They have committed a humongous blunder very much against their own economic and security interests as well as ours. The only apparent purpose of this cut in oil supplies is to help the Russians and harm Americans. It was unprovoked and unforced, as an error."
5. Cutaway
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Sen. Richard Blumenthal, (D) Connecticut:
"And I am very hopeful that the president will act immediately, he has the power to stop these sales, and he should exercise that power, in my view. But we hope that this legislation will provide an impetus for the Saudis to reconsider this action and reverse it. There's still time. The oil supply cuts don't take effect until November, and the Saudis can act in the meantime."
7. Cutaway
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Ro Khanna, (D) California:
"From my perspective, it's it's pretty simple. We have done so much for Saudi Arabia. I mean, the first President Bush basically sent troops to the Middle East to make sure Saddam Hussein didn't invade the Saudis when the troops were in Kuwait. As Senator Blumenthal said, we provide so much not just in weapons, but in defense cooperation, in joint defense initiatives to the Saudis. They get almost 73% of their arms from the United States. If it weren't for our technicians, their airplanes literally wouldn't fly."
9. Cutaway
10. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Ro Khanna, (D) California:
"And so what galls many of us in Congress is the ingratitude. It's the ingratitude. When Americans are facing a crisis because of Putin, when we're paying more at the pump, our ally, someone who we have helped for decades, should be trying to help the American people. Instead, they're hurting the American people. And that will not stand."
11. Cutaway
12. SOUNDBITE (English) Sen. Richard Blumenthal, (D) Connecticut:
"They (Republicans) have been receptive, noncommittal, but favorable in their remarks that there need to be consequences. And this proposal, as Congressman Khanna said so well, is reasonable and sensible, calibrated to keep the relationship and preserve the cooperation, but restore trust and rebalance it because it has been so one sided. And I think many Republicans share that perspective."
13. Cutaway of Blumenthal and Khanna leaving room
STORYLINE:
Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal and Congressman Ro Khanna have joined forces to introduce legislation that would freeze arms sales to Saudi Arabia following the Riyadh-led OPEC+ alliance moves to cut oil production.
Blumenthal of Connecticut and Khanna of California introduced legislation that would immediately pause all U.S. arms sales to Saudi Arabia for one year. This pause would also halt sales of spare and repair parts, support services and logistical support.
But it remains to be seen how far President Joe Biden is willing to go in showing his displeasure with the Saudis, a vital but complicated ally in the Middle East.
Biden came into office vowing to recalibrate the U.S. relationship because of Saudi Arabia's human rights record but then paid a visit to the kingdom earlier this year

STORYLINE:
NATO defense ministers met Wednesday as the alliance's member countries face the twin challenges of struggling to make and supply weapons to Ukraine while protecting vital European infrastructure like pipelines or cables that Russia might want to sabotage in retaliation.
Officials at the meeting included: Finnish Minister for Defense Antti Kaikkonen, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, Swedish Minister for Defense Peter Hultqvist, Ukrainian Minister of Defense Oleksii Reznikov, and U.S. Secretary of defense Lloyd J. Austin III, who made a statement.
In the almost eight months since President Vladimir Putin ordered his troops into Ukraine, the 30-nation military alliance has been treading a fine line, as an organization, providing only non-lethal support and defending its own territory to avoid being dragged into a wider war with a nuclear-armed Russia.
Individual allies though continue to pour in weapons and ammunition, including armored vehicles and air defense or anti-tank systems.
They’re also training Ukrainian troops, building on the lessons NATO has taught Ukraine’s military instructors since Russia annexed the Crimean Peninsula in 2014.
But as the Russian missile strikes across Ukraine this week demonstrated, this is not enough.
NATO defense ministers were taking stock Wednesday of the supply effort so far and to debate ways to encourage the defense industry to ramp up production in short order.
At the same time, national military stocks and arsenals are being depleted. Some countries are growing reluctant to provide Ukraine with more when they are no longer entirely sure that they can protect their own territories and airspace.

++BEGINS AND ENDS ON SOUNDBITES++
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Paris - 12 October 2022
1. SOUNDBITE (English) Paul Dorfman, nuclear expert, University of Sussex:
"It's a very dangerous situation with the International Atomic Energy authority saying that it's an accident waiting to happen. This is because you cannot cut power to a nuclear reactor. It is a very dangerous thing to do. Zaporizhzhia plant is the largest nuclear station in Europe. And now for the second time in two days, power has been cut. Now, this has important implications for the cooling of the reactor and also, very importantly, the cooling of the high level radiation spent fuel ponds."
++BLACK FRAMES++
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Paul Dorfman, nuclear expert, University of Sussex:
"Once full power is cut to Zaporizhzhia, then reliance is on backup diesel generators, which are, you know, not efficient. These have to be fueled and refueled, and there are questions about what then would happen if they were hit? What then would happen if the reactor pressure vessel were hit? What then would happen if the spent fuel ponds were hit? Well, in a worst case scenario, you would have a similar situation to Fukushima. It wouldn't be Chernobyl because the reactors are different from the Chernobyl reactors, which were graphite reactors. But what you would see is a heating of the reactors. You'd see a heating of the high level spent fuel ponds. You'd see a hydrogen explosion, as we saw in Fukushima. And then you'd see a significant radiation release."
++BLACK FRAMES++
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Paul Dorfman, nuclear expert, University of Sussex:
"This is a worst case scenario. The immediate impact would be felt very much around Ukraine, obviously, and, of course, Russia, depending on which way the wind blows. It's largely - the main deposit is likely to be in Ukraine and/or Russia, but there could be significant radiation pollution in Central Europe, which is why countries around Ukraine are now thinking very seriously about issuing stable potassium iodide tablets, which inhibit the uptake of an aspect of that pollution."
++BLACK FRAMES++
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Paul Dorfman, nuclear expert, University of Sussex:
"Basically, what we've got here is the weaponisation of civil nuclear, perhaps for the first time. And in an increasingly unstable world, it's important to understand this and what this implies for nuclear worldwide. Now, in terms of the larger strategic thinking around the war, it has to be remembered that Russia and Russia-controlled Kazakhstan provide 42% of all uranium to reactors worldwide and 20% of all uranium to the reactors in the EU. EDF is still doing business with Russia. So all of this has very significant implications for nuclear and the nuclear industry."
++BLACK FRAMES++
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Paul Dorfman, nuclear expert, University of Sussex:

STORYLINE:
A crippled nuclear power plant in Ukraine that lost all external power for the second time in five days presents a "very dangerous situation", a nuclear expert said on Wednesday.
"You cannot cut power to a nuclear reactor. It is a very dangerous thing to do," said Paul Dorfman of the University of Sussex.
The Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant suffered a “blackout” when a missile damaged an electrical substation, leading to the emergency shutdown of the plant's last remaining outside power source, operator Energoatom reported.
All six of the reactors were stopped earlier due to the war.

LEADIN:
Palestinians in Gaza took part in a protest on Tuesday to voice their rejection of Israeli raids in the West Bank and to show solidarity with Palestinian prisoners.
STORYLINE:
Dozens of Palestinians gathered near Gaza's maritime frontier with Israel on Tuesday to protest Israeli raids in the West Bank.
Israel has been carrying out nightly arrest raids across the West Bank since a spate of attacks against Israelis in the spring killed 19 people.
Most of that activity has been focused in the northern West Bank.
Israeli fire has killed more than 100 Palestinians during that time, making it the deadliest year in the occupied territory since 2015.
The protest on Tuesday was organized by various factions in the coastal territory, including Gaza's Hamas rulers.
The factions said the demonstration was also organized to protest tension in Jerusalem's holy sites and to show solidarity with Palestinian prisoners.
"We are now raising our voice so that the whole world can hear us," said Khader Habib, Islamic Jihad official.
Israel says the arrest raids are meant to dismantle militant networks.
The Palestinians say the operations have undermined their own security forces and are aimed at strengthening Israel's 55-year military occupation of territories they want for an independent state.
The Gaza protest, which featured several demonstrators holding up Palestinian flags, ended peacefully.
The Gaza-Israel border has been largely quiet since a cease-fire between Israel and Palestinian militants took effect in August, ending three days of violence.
The brief conflict was between Israel and the Islamic Jihad, the smaller of the two main Palestinian militant groups in the Gaza Strip.
Hamas, the militant group that has ruled Gaza for the last 15 years, did not take part in the fighting.

1. Steve Bannon arrives at court
STORYLINE:
Donald Trump's longtime ally Steve Bannon arrived at a New York court on Thursday. He's expected to surrender on charges that he duped donors who gave money to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Bannon is accused of pocketing more than $1 million. An earlier federal prosecution on similar charges ended before trial when Trump pardoned Bannon.
Bannon has called the charges "phony." Two other men involved in the wall project have pleaded guilty and a third defendant's trial ended in a mistrial in June after jurors couldn't reach a unanimous verdict.

,1,(27 Mar 2022) Former Brazilian president and likely candidate to run in elections later this year Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on Saturday attended a rally to celebrate the centenary of Brazil's Communist Party.
The Communist Party has announced its support for Lula, who leaders the Workers' Party, for the presidential vote in October.
It had provided the same backing when he secured a historic triumph for Brazi's left-wing political class in 2002.
The rally in Niterói, a neighbouring city to Rio de Janeiro, reunited many left-wing political figures, from congressmen to former mayors and governors.
Thousands waited eagerly to hear the former president speak.
Lula again attacked current President Jair Bolsonaro, whom he is likely to face in October for showing a neutral position towards Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
As inflation impacts Brazil where over 12 million people are unemployed, according to official figures, petrol prices have skyrocketed.
"We are going to have a Brazilian price for gas, cooking gas and diesel," said Lula, referring to changing the pricing policy of Brazilian state-owned oil giant Petrobras.
A recently published poll by pollster Datafolha showed Lula with a 43% lead, compared to 26% support for Bolsonaro, keeping him second in the race.

The chair of former President Donald Trump's 2017 inaugural committee has pleaded not guilty to criminal charges in a New York courtroom days after he was freed on $250 million bail.
Tom Barrack appeared in Brooklyn federal court Monday to face charges that he secretly worked as an agent for the United Arab Emirates to influence Trump's foreign policy.
Prosecutors say he used his multi-decade friendship with Trump to influence policy when Trump was a candidate in 2016 and after he was sworn in as president the following year. Federal authorities say he broke the law by failing to disclose his ties to the U.S. government.

A recurring clash between the government's top infectious disease doctor and a U.S. senator has erupted again on Capitol Hill, with each accusing the other of lying.
Dr. Anthony Fauci angrily confronted Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky in testimony before a Senate committee. Fauci rejected Paul's insinuation that the U.S. helped fund research at a Chinese lab that could have sparked the COVID-19 outbreak.
Fauci spoke to the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee, saying a study the senator mentioned referenced a different sort of virus entirely from the one responsible for the coronavirus outbreak.
"Senator Paul, you do not know what you're talking about, quite frankly," Fauci said. "And I want to say that officially. You do not know what you're talking about."
He added, "If anybody is lying here, senator, it is you."
It was the latest in a series of clashes between Paul and Fauci about the origins of the virus that caused the global pandemic.

,1,(5 Nov 2015) Hundreds of Berkeley High School students walked out of class Thursday in protest of a racist message left on a computer screen a day earlier.
School district officials said the message referred to the Ku Klux Klan, using derogatory language related to African Americans and threatening a "public lynching" on Dec. 9.
The student protesters marched on the nearby campus of the University of California, Berkeley and staged rallies on the steps of Sproul Plaza and the landmark Campanile clock tower.
They chanted "Black Lives Matter," spoke out against racism and called on the school administration to take stronger action to protect students.
The message was discovered Wednesday afternoon. Principal Sam Pasarow said in an email to the school community late Wednesday that the school is giving the investigation the "utmost attention," and it has filed a report with Berkeley Police Department.
District officials say the message appeared to be a modified screen shot of the school's library web page that was left on one computer in the library. It did not appear that the system had been hacked and the website altered.
District spokesman Marc Coplan told the San Francisco Chronicle (http://sfg.ly/1WzK6vS ) that an estimated 2,000 of the school's 3,000 students had left school grounds to participate in a march, which moved to the University of California, Berkeley campus late Thursday morning.
"We really understand the students' pain, their anguish and their fear and are doing everything we can to work with Berkeley police and other agencies to figure out what happened," Coplan told the newspaper. "Our students are hurting tremendously. They're weeping. They're crying."

,1,(1 Nov 2021) The trial of Kyle Rittenhouse has begun with the challenging task of seating jurors who haven't already made up their minds about the man who shot three people, killing two, during a violent night of protests last summer.
Rittenhouse was present in the courtroom throughout.
His mother and sister were also in attendence.
Rittenhouse was 17 when he traveled from his home in Illinois, just across the Wisconsin border, during protests that broke out in August 2020 after a police officer shot Jacob Blake, a Black man.
Rittenhouse faces life in prison if he's convicted on one of the homicide counts against him.
Judge Bruce Schroeder told attorneys he thinks picking the 20-member jury pool can be accomplished in a day.
The trial that begins Monday is expected to last two to three weeks.

,1,(13 Oct 2020) The Holocaust Remembrance Centre in Israel welcomed on Tuesday Facebook's new initiative to ban posts that deny or distort the Holocaust.
The initiative would also direct users to authoritative sources if they search for information about the Nazi genocide.
"We are very grateful that this has been done, the test will be by implementing these new policies," said Iris Rosenberg, the director of communication division at Yad Vashem.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Monday announced the new policy, the latest attempt by the company to take action against conspiracy theories and misinformation ahead of the U.S. presidential election three weeks away.
The decision comes amid a push by Holocaust survivors around the world who lent their voices to a campaign targeting Zuckerberg beginning this summer, urging him to take action to remove Holocaust denial posts from the social media site.
"Yad Vashem hopes that other social media outlets and platforms will act the same and will decide also that Holocaust denial and distortion is anti-Semitism and will work more and more to ban it and to erase it from their platforms," Rosenberg said.

,1,(30 Nov 2018) A woman who drove her SUV over a New York mother saluted by President Donald Trump for her crusade against MS-13 gang violence has pleaded not guilty to criminally negligent homicide.
Fifty-eight-year-old Annmarie Drago surrendered to police in the morning and appeared in court in Long Island on Friday.
Prosecutors say Evelyn Rodriguez was killed as she angrily confronted Drago for trashing a memorial set up for the anniversary of her daughter's death.
Drago also faces charges of criminal mischief and petit larceny in the Sept. 14 confrontation that led to the death of Evelyn Rodriguez, who became a symbol in the fight against gang violence after her 16-year-old daughter, Kayla Cuevas, was hacked and beaten to death along with a friend on a suburban Long Island street.

,1,(21 Sep 2018) A mother recognized by US President Donald Trump for turning grief over her daughter's suspected gang killing into a crusade against MS-13 was remembered at her funeral Friday as a hero and a warrior.
Evelyn Rodriguez, 50, was struck and killed by an SUV on Sept. 14 after a heated confrontation with the driver over the placement of a memorial to her slain daughter, Kayla Cuevas.
Rodriguez and another person were seen standing in the street and yelling at the driver of the SUV before the vehicle sped forward and struck her.
Rodriguez was killed two years to the day after Cuevas' beaten, slashed body was found.
Cuevas and her friend, 15-year-old Nisa Mickens, were walking when police say they were ambushed by MS-13 gang members. Mickens' body was found a few hundred feet away near an elementary school.
The driver of the SUV that killed Rodriguez wasn't hurt.
She remained at the scene and called 911. Police have not released the driver's name — even though doing so is common practice — citing the investigation.
Rodriguez spoke out against the gang and the local school district after Cuevas and Mickens were attacked with machetes and baseball bats.
The girls' alleged killers, who were arrested along with about a dozen other suspected MS-13 members, are facing murder charges that could result in the death penalty.
MS-13, or the Mara Salvatrucha, is blamed for dozens of killings on Long Island since 2016. Trump has blamed the violence on lax immigration policies.
Rodriguez stood with Cuevas' father, Freddy Cuevas, and Mickens' parents at the State of the Union in January and sat alongside Trump and King at a gang violence forum in May on Long Island.

,1,(17 Aug 2017) An 18-year-old student who attended the white nationalist rally in Virginia last weekend said on Wednesday that he has withdrawn from college in Boston in part because of death threats.
Nicholas Fuentes said he received 15 death threats via email and social media.
He said he considered leaving Boston University in January after protests in the city against President Donald Trump.
He gave it more serious consideration in recent weeks and on Tuesday had an exit interview with the school.
The university confirmed he is no longer enrolled.
Fuentes flew from Chicago to attend the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville on Saturday.
A woman was killed there when a car drove into a crowd of counter-protesters.
He said he doesn't advocate violence and is not a racist.

,1,(20 Mar 2017) FBI Director James Comey is publicly confirming for the first time that the FBI is investigating Russia's efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election, including any potential coordination between Trump campaign associates and Russia's government.
Comey is testifying before Congress. He says he's authorized by the Justice Department to make the disclosure. Typically, the FBI does not discuss or even confirm the existence of ongoing investigations.
Comey says the probe is part of the FBI's counterintelligence mission. He says the investigation includes the nature of any links between individuals associated with Trump's campaign and the Russian government, and whether there was any coordination between Russia's efforts and the campaign.
Comey says the investigation will also look at whether crimes were committed. He says he can't provide details about the investigation.

An alleged MS-13 member who allegedly lured his 19-year-old girlfriend and her toddler son into a New York woods where they were fatally shot in the head because she was "disrespecting" the gang landed on the FBI's "Ten Most Wanted Fugitives" list Wednesday, authorities said.
Juan Elias Garcia, 21, whose last reported sighting was somewhere in Honduras in 2011, is the fourth person sought by federal authorities in the Long Island killings of 19-year-old Vanessa Argueta and her 2-year-old son Diego Torres, said George Venizelos, the FBI assistant director of the New York field office.
Garcia, a native of El Salvador who authorities said was the first MS-13 gang member to make the bureau's most wanted list, allegedly brought Argueta to the woods of Central Islip, N.Y. in February 2010 after promising to take her to dinner, Venizelos said.
Argueta was accompanied by two other reputed MS-13 members who had received permission from the gang's leader to carry out the killing, Venizelos said. One of them shot her in the chest and head because of alleged threats made toward Garcia by rival gang members to whom she had ties, according to Venizelos.
Her son was also shot in the head twice -- the second time after grasping at Garcia's leg -- with the same .22 caliber handgun, he said.
Last October, the Treasury Department designated MS-13, or Mara Salvatrucha, as an international criminal organization. It has a strong presence throughout the country, particularly in areas with substantial Salvadoran populations such as Southern California, the District of Columbia and northern Virginia. The gang also is allied with several Mexican drug cartels.
There is a reward of up to $100,000 for information leading to Garcia's arrest, authorities said, cautioning the public not to take action themselves but instead to call the FBI or local law enforcement. Garcia also has ties to Nicaragua, Guatemala and Panama, they said.
MS-13 is the largest and most violent street gang on Long Island, with more than a dozen chapters there, said Loretta Lynch, the U.S. Attorney for New York's Eastern District.
Garcia was indicted on seven counts that included murder, murder conspiracy and firearms charges last month, shortly after he turned 21, and lost federal juvenile protection status that had prevented authorities from naming him publicly, Lynch said.
Rene Mendez Mejia, who pleaded guilty to the murders, and Adalberto Ariel Guzman, who was found guilty at trial, are awaiting sentencing, Venizelos said. Gang leader Heriberto Martinez, who allegedly sanctioned the killings, was charged in connection with the murders and other crimes and has been sentenced to three life terms plus 60 years, he said.

[SOT/Tom Stewart/Boy Scout Abuse Victim] ("These confidential files, the Boy Scouts should have told police, should have told parents, should have told the American public that we have a problem but we're working on it. Instead, they kept these files secret.")
[SOT/Matt Stewart/Boy Scout Abuse Victim] ("When you sit on tens of thousands of files and not notify the authorities of criminal acts, then people like me end up as victims.")
