Watch Video: Morocco earthquake death toll nearing 3,000The powerful earthquake that struck Morocco Friday night has killed more than 2,800 people, injured many more, and affected hundreds of thousands in sections of the country that suffered severe damage. It was the strongest quake to hit the country in over a century.Frantic rescue efforts to find survivors continue, and widespread destruction could be seen from Marrakech to the High Atlas Mountains. In mountain villages, roads have been blocked by rockslides, making it nearly impossible to reach those still trapped.The need for aid is immense and urgent. “When you donate to local organizations, you’re helping in more than one way. You’re helping to create jobs locally & strengthen local capacity, too,” Dr. Céline Gounder, a CBS News medical contributor and editor-at-large for Public Health at KFF, wrote on social media. Gounder was in Morocco when the earthquake hit.Spanish and Moroccan rescuers sear...How Md. retailers are responding to organized retail theft that has ‘become so serious’

In response to organized retail theft across the state, the Maryland Retailers Association is meeting with several jurisdictions to discuss solutions before the issue becomes so significant that stores consider closing.Cailey Locklair, president of the Maryland Retailers Association, said the group met with Montgomery County leaders last week, and is addressing the organized theft “that has become so serious now” with other localities.As a result of the thefts, Locklair said, some stores are closing and others are considering extra precautions. Some are locking up certain items, checking receipts at entrances and creating one entry and exit point.Certain stores are also considering extra security, she said.The issues aren’t exclusive to Maryland, either. A Giant store in Southeast D.C. has added cameras and armed security guards along with making the decision to stop carrying items such as Tide detergent, Colgate toothpaste and Advil.“(Retail theft) is not un...Brewers meet the Marlins with 1-0 series lead

Published Tue, 05 Nov 2024 07:52:29 GMT
Russia’s President Vladimir Putin said Tuesday that the four separate criminal cases against former U.S. President Donald Trump are politically motivated.“Everything that is happening with Trump, this is persecution for political reasons of one’s political rival,” Putin said at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, state-owned news agency Ria Novosti reported.Putin said the cases against the former American president show “the rottenness of the American political system, which cannot pretend to teach others about democracy.”Trump, who faced scrutiny over his personal ties to Russia during his time in the White House, in April became the first U.S. president or former president to be indicted. Since then, he has been charged in four different criminal cases in the U.S., for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election and election interference in the state of Georgia, but also over hush payments he allegedly made to a porn actress, and for hoarding cla...North Korea’s Kim is in Russia to meet Putin, as both are locked in standoffs with the West

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea’s Kim Jong Un arrived in Russia on Tuesday for a meeting with President Vladimir Putin where they are expected to offer each other increased support in their escalating standoffs with the West.Kim is expected to seek Russian economic aid and military technology in exchange for munitions to be used in Russia’s war in Ukraine.After decades of complicated, hot-and-cold relations, Russia and North Korea have drawn closer since Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The bond has been driven by Putin’s need for war supplies and Kim’s efforts to boost his partnerships with traditional allies Moscow and Beijing as he tries to break out of diplomatic isolation.North Korea’s official Korean Central News Agency said Kim boarded his personal train bound for Russia on Sunday afternoon, accompanied by members of the ruling party, government and military.His final destination is uncertain.
