VOA news for Thursday, May 5th, 2016
From Washington this is VOA news.
I'm Victor Beattie reporting.
The US and Russia have brokered a localized forty eight hours ceasefire over the embattled city of Aleppo, where fighting has left nearly three hundred civilians dead in the past two weeks.
US Secretary of State John Kerry Wednesday said that applies to all parts of Syria.
“We expect all the parties to the cessation of hostilities to fully abide by the agreed cessation in Aleppo. That means the regime and the opposition alike. And we also expect them to live by the cessation throughout the country. Pursuant to the terms that were arrived at and agreed upon in Munich in February of this year.”
UN Undersecretary General for Political Affairs Jeffrey Feltman, addressing an emergency session of the UN security council on Syria, said the truce in Aleppo is urgently needed.
“Aleppo's increasingly becoming a shell of what it once was.
Government aerial bombardment the city over the last two weeks represent some of the worst of the war. Opposition shelling of government controlled neighborhoods has also led to death and destruction. There's a clear danger that these attacks and counterattacks will continue to escalate and even spread beyond Aleppo.”
Recent upsurge in fighting has also halted progress in reaching a political agreement between the government and opposition.
Meanwhile, rebel commanders are accusing Russian artillery units of being part of the fighting for control of Aleppo.
UN and local officials say machete wielding attackers killed at least sixteen villagers in a nighttime assault Tuesday on a village in the eastern Beni territory of north Kivu province of Democratic Republic of Congo.
The Center of Study for the Promotion of Peace, Democracy and Human Rights said the suspects were likely link to the Allied Democratic Forces, a rebel group which has its origin in Uganda.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Voters in the Midwestern U.S. state of Indiana went to the polls today in the latest U.S. presidential primary election.
Shortly after the polls closed, Republican front-runner Donald Trump was projected by networks to be the winner, beating Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Ohio Governor John Kasich.
The victory is believed to put Trump on the path to clinching the Republican Party's presidential nomination.
On the Democratic side, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton held a slim lead over Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders as the vote count began. But media reports say the contest is too close to call.
A team led by the U.S., Russia and the U.N. is working to finalize a plan that could lead to the restoration of a cessation of hostilities in Syria, where fighting between the government and rebels could hinder efforts to fight the Islamic State group.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said military-to-military teams are working on details.
He commented Tuesday, a day after holding emergency talks in Geneva with officials including U.N. Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura.
Kerry also spoke by phone to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
A U.S. Navy SEAL has been killed by enemy fire during an Islamic State attack on a Kurdish Peshmerga position in northern Iraq. The death was announced Tuesday in Germany by Defense Secretary Ash Carter.
"An American service member was killed in Iraq in the neighborhood of Irbil.”
A press secretary said the service member was "advising and assisting Peshmerga forces." A top French trade official says trade negotiations between the United States and the European Union are likely to grind to a halt, that, he says, due to the U.S. reluctance to make concessions.
This is VOA news.
The United Nations Security Council approved a resolution on Tuesday demanding all parties protect hospitals, health care providers and medical facilities against violence and be held accountable in case they don't.
Gerard van Bohemen [a new] is the New Zealand ambassador to the United Nations: "Today, the Council has spoken with one voice to deliver a firm response to this growing global problem. We are shining a light on behavior that is becoming all too prevalent but should just not be happening.”
The adoption of the resolution in the U.N. followed a series of attacks on hospitals in war zones worldwide.
The European Commission is due to release details of a plan to overhaul the EU asylum system Wednesday.
The plans are expected to touch off renewed debate on how Europe should handle the influx of migrants.
Transparency International says roughly one in three people in the Middle East and North Africa have had to pay a bribe for public services.
A Transparency report released Tuesday says bribes are commonly used to obtain public services, in court systems and among regional police, as well as for medical care, documents, permits and electric and water service.
The rights group Amnesty International says more than 1,000 Iraqis are being held without charge at makeshift counterterrorism centers throughout the country.
Amnesty says many of the detainees were taken when Iraqi forces recaptured their towns from Islamic State forces. Many are suspected of collaborating with the militant group.
Counter-terrorism officers tell Amnesty they lack personnel to carry out investigations in a timely manner and don't have the resources to treat detainees humanely.
The governor of the southeastern U.S. state of Georgia has vetoed a bill backed by his fellow Republicans that would have allowed college students to carry concealed guns on campuses across the state.
Tuesday's veto came nearly a month after Governor Nathan Deal angered many in his state by vetoing religious liberty legislation that would have extended legal protections to opponents of same-sex marriages.
Nigeria's vice president says the previous government stole some $15 billion of public money through fraudulent arms agreements.
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo said Tuesday the money was lost due to "corrupt practices in security equipment spending" during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan.
The Kenyan Red Cross has located the father of a baby who was rescued from the rubble of a collapsed building, more than three days after the building came down.
The Red Cross reported the early morning rescue, saying the baby girl was taken to a Nairobi hospital with dehydration but no sign of other physical injuries.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David Byrd reporting. Hundreds of supporters of Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr stormed the Iraq's parliament building Saturday to protest a continuing deadlock in approval of a new cabinet.
The incident inside the parliament building followed Sadr's denunciation of the government's failure to reform a political quota system that's blamed for rampant corruption.
Supporters of Sadr have been demonstrating in Baghdad for weeks responding to their leader's call to put pressure on Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi to follow through on months-old reform promises.
Hours after the protesters stormed the building, Abadi called on them to return to areas set aside for demonstrations and not to infringe on public property.
As night fell, the demonstrators set up tents inside the Green Zone, which houses government ministries, the parliament and foreign embassies, including the U.S. embassy.
About 30 airstrikes by Syrian government warplanes and helicopter gunships hit rebel-held areas of the city of Aleppo Saturday, killing at least five people.
According to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, nearly 250 civilians have died in shelling, rocket fire and air raids in the past eight days.
The surge of violence comes as the International Committee of the Red Cross warned that the intensification of fighting could bring many people closer to a humanitarian disaster in the city.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will travel to Geneva on Sunday for talks on the Syrian situation. The State Department said Kerry will discuss ongoing efforts to reaffirm a cessation of hostilities.
This is VOA news.
Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta set fire to his country's ivory stock pile on Saturday, with more than 100 tons of elephant tusk and rhino horn going up in smoke.
As VOA's Jill Craig reports, the massive burn was intended to send a message to the world that ivory is worth more on an elephant than it is in the market.
Plumes of smoke filled the air of a muddy Nairobi National Park as Kenya's President Kenyatta presided over the burning of 105 tons of elephant ivory as well as 1.35 tons of rhino horn.
"The height of the pile of ivory before us marks the strength of our resolve. Before you, ladies and gentlemen, is the largest haul of ivory and horn ever to be destroyed in this manner.”
Critics have argued that poor countries like Kenya should sell the ivory to improve the lives of their people. The Kenya Wildlife Service has responded that selling these illegal trophies dramatically increases elephant poaching, threatening the animals' very existence.
Jill Craig, VOA news, Nairobi.
Rescue crews in the Kenyan capital are searching for survivors after flooding caused a six-story residential building to collapse, killing at least 12 people and trapping an unknown number inside.
Authorities said Saturday more than 134 people have been rescued and taken to hospitals to treat their injuries. The Kenyan Red Cross said 150 units in the building and adjacent homes were affected.
The residential building is located in a low-income, highly populated neighborhood in Nairobi.
Heavy rains caused flooding and landslides in many areas of the city that made it difficult for rescuers to reach the scene.
Authorities in Italy are still searching for more than 80 migrants that are missing after an inflatable boat sank off the coast of Libya.
The International Organization for Migration said that as many as 110 people were on board when the boat left Libya.
An Italian cargo ship rescued 26 migrants from the boat that was sinking. The rescued migrants were transferred to an Italian coast guard vessel and taken to Lampedusa.
President Obama used his weekly media address to call for the U.S. Senate to consider Merrick Garland, his nominee for the Supreme Court.
Mr. Obama said it was time for the Senate to do its job and consider Judge Garland to replace the late Antonin Scalia.
"The Supreme Court must remain above partisan politics. I've done my job - I nominated someone as qualified as Merrick Garland. Now it's time for the Senate to do their job.”
Senate Republicans have vowed not to consider any nominee until after November's election.

The United States deployed F-22 fighter jets to Romania as a sign of support for NATO's eastern European allies, facing aggression from Russia.
The fighter jets landed Monday at an air base in the country's southeast.
South Sudan rebel leader Riek Machar returned to the capital on Tuesday after two and a half years of civil war and was sworn in as the country's top vice president. Jason Patinkin reports.
Riek Machar fled Juba two and a half years ago as South Sudan's war broke out. Now he's come back and has taken up the post of first vice president under President Salva Kiir.
Machar and Kiir's forces have waged a brutal war against each other since December 2013, a few months after the president fired Machar as his deputy.
The two men signed a peace deal last year but implementation has been slow, with fighting continuing in some areas.
Machar's return raises prospects that the deal can start taking effect.
Jason Patinkin, Juba.
This is VOA news.
Eleven men, eight of them soldiers, have been killed at a military barracks in Cape Verde.
Officials in the West African nation say a disgruntled soldier is suspected of the killings. Two Spanish nationals are among the dead.
The suspected gunman is still at large.
Tuesday marks the 30th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear accident, in which an explosion at a power plant near the town contaminated a wide area with radiation.
United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon spoke today about the desolation he witnessed when he visited the area.
"The reactor encased in concrete, the empty villages and the sense of broken lives made a deep impression on me. Let us never forget Chernobyl.”
More than 200 tons of uranium are still inside the reactor site, fueling fears that new radiation leaks could occur in the area.
A poll released Tuesday indicates six out of 10 Brazilians believe new elections could resolve the country's political crisis.
The IBOPE poll showed 62 percent of Brazilians want President Dilma Rousseff and Vice President Michel Temer to step down so new elections can be held.
Some Venezuelans were surprised Monday by rolling four-hour electricity blackouts. The blackouts are due to a drought that has rendered hydroelectric power plants nearly useless.
The government says the power outages will last 40 days.
An al-Qaeda-affiliated group has claimed responsibility for the killing of a Bangladeshi gay rights activist and his friend.
Ansar al-Islam said on Twitter it killed Xulhaz Mannan and Tanay Mojumda on Monday, calling the two "pioneers of practicing and promoting homosexuality" in Bangladesh.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest spoke about the killing.
"Mr. Mannan set an example of dignity, courage and selflessness, and his legacy will live on in the causes that he championed.”
Several witnesses told police the assailants shouted "Allahu Akbar" while fleeing.
The killings resemble the murders of several secular bloggers and activists in Bangladesh over the past few years.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. President Barack Obama orders an increase in the number of U.S. special operations forces in Syria.
Mr. Obama is urging European nations to ramp up their contributions to the coalition fighting the Islamic State group.
Speaking at an industrial trade fair Monday in Hanover, Germany, the U.S. president says up to 250 additional personnel will join a team of about 50 U.S. troops in Syria.
"Just as I've approved additional support for Iraqi forces against ISIL, I've decided to increase U.S. support for local forces fighting ISIL in Syria.”
Earlier this month, the United States announced the deployment of an additional 200 troops and several Apache attack helicopters to Iraq.
Diplomatic sources say a group of Taliban negotiators has arrived in Pakistan for "exploratory" meetings with authorities in Islamabad.
The sources say the visit is part of efforts that Pakistan is making to facilitate resumption of Afghan peace and reconciliation talks.
But when contacted by VOA, a Taliban spokesman said he was unaware that the delegation had traveled to Pakistan.
The development comes as the same day as Afghanistan's President Ashraf Ghani told parliament that Pakistan is to blame for not stopping fugitive Taliban leaders from plotting violence in Afghanistan.
Saudi Arabia unveiled a long-term plan that could result in its most significant economic changes in decades. The plan would propose a shift away from the dependence on petroleum as the country's most valuable asset.

The April 26, 1986, explosion at Chernobyl's No. 4 reactor forced the evacuation of 350,000 residents working and living in the surrounding area.
Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump is ridiculing his two rivals' efforts to derail his campaign.
Trump's challengers, Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Ohio Governor John Kasich, announced a plan Sunday to run in selective primaries to try to deny Trump of first ballot victory at the party's July convention.
Trump calls it a "horrible act of desperation.”
"If you add up the both votes, and if you add up the both delegates they're way behind me, so it doesn't matter. But it takes two guys, longtime politicians, to try and get together to try and beat Trump, and yet they're way behind.”
The Cruz-Kasich strategy signals a marked shift for Cruz, who has previously rejected overtures to join with Kasich to try to block Trump.
Iran has threatened legal action against the United States if $2 billion in frozen funds are diverted to compensate American families of people killed by Iran-sponsored terrorism.
Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said his government will hold the U.S. government responsible for protecting Iran's frozen funds.

Here is chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda: "Because all these acts appear to fall within the jurisdiction of the ICC, I have decided to open a preliminary examination into the situation in Burundi since April of 2015.”
A preliminary examination is not an investigation but instead a process of determining whether a formal investigation is necessary.

From Washington This is VOA news. I'm Sarah Williams reporting.
North Korea has apparently test-fired an the intermediate range missile that crashed seconds after takeoff. South Korea's defense ministry reported the failed launch Thursday. The incident comes less than a week after Pyongyang celebrated the launch of a missile from a submarine. South Korea told Yonhap news agency the missile flew for about thirty kilometers and the test did not appear to have been a success. Pyongyang's latest missile launches come as South Korea and the United States conduct annual joint military drills that North Korea has labeled “a provocation.” US officials say efforts to squeeze the Islamic State In Iraq And Syria have put the self-declared caliphate on shaky ground, leaving the terror group in perhaps as vulnerable a state as it has been since the start of the US led bombing campaign. For months, US military officials have been touting IS's territorial losses, up to forty percent of the landed once controlled in Iraq and upwards of ten percent of the areas it held in Syria. But military and intelligence officials now say the bombing campaign, along with pressure from US partners on the ground, is eating away at IS’s ability to send forces into the fight. Leading US Republican presidential contender Donald Trump called Wednesday for “sharp changes” in US foreign policy to put American interests first. He said current US foreign policy is a complete and total disaster. Trump attacked President Barack Obama's handling of US foreign affairs, adecision made by his one time top diplomat, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton is the likely democratic presidential candidate. This is VOA news. A senior intelligence analyst says members of Al-Shabab in Somalia, who recently pledged allegiance to Islamic state, are moving into the capital, Mogadishu. Colonel Abdullahi Ali Maow, a former national intelligence officer who now heads the new Mogadishu-based Somalia Institute for Security Studies, told VOA that some al-Shabab members are fleeing to the capital and to areas near the border with Kenya because they were overpowered in the region of Middle Juba. Maow said Mogadishu is attractive because, as a city of several million people, it is an easy place to blend in. This week, Islamic State claimed responsibility for an attack on Somalia when an explosion targeted a convoy of the African Union troops outside the capital. But AMISOM military spokesman Joseph Kibet told VOA that Islamic State may not have been behind that attack. US authorities have taken more than one hundred suspected gang members off the streets of New York in what they're calling the largest gang take down in the city's history. The suspects were taken into custody Wednesday during several raids. William Bratton is the Commissioner of New York police. “These gang members do not belong on our streets. Instead they belong exactly where they're going. Federal prison for many years. Where they won't be surrounded by their buddies, they won’t be close to their families, and they will no longer be free to terrorize the neighborhoods in which they grew up.” Prosecutors are charging members of the "2 Fly YGZ" and "The Big Money Bosses" with racketeering narcotics and fire arms offenses. South Korea has announced its Olympic athletes will wear long sleeve shirts and pants containing mosquito repellent for ceremonies and training during the twenty sixteen Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. The uniforms are meant to ward off mosquito borne transmission of the Zika virus which causes only mild symptoms in most people but can cause birth defects when pregnant women are infected. The virus is also been found to be sexually transmissible meaning an infected athlete, while not pregnant, could bring the virus home and pass it on to a partner. Russia has launched the first rocket from its new cosmodrome, Vostochny, after a one-day delay for technical reasons.
Russian President Vladimir Putin traveled to the far-east Russian location for the launch, congratulating cosmodrome workers after the event - while also scolding them for the delay.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Phoebe Zimmermann reporting.
More than 170 countries signed an agreement Friday aimed at limiting the rise of global temperatures and slowing the effects of climate change on the planet.
The deal which was agreed to in Paris at the end of last year opened for signatures on Friday in honor of Earth Day.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon warned that this action is overdue.
"The window for keeping global temperature rise well below two degrees Celsius, let alone 1.5 degrees, is rapidly closing. The era of consumption without consequences is over.”
The leader also said nations must intensify efforts to de-carbonize their economies and urged support for developing countries in making this transaction.
The countries signing the deal represent more than 93 percent of the planet's greenhouse gas emissions.
The world's biggest emitters, China and the United States, together account for about 40 percent of emissions and both countries urged early enforcement of the deal.
President Obama has dived into a heated debate over a June 23 referendum in which British voters will decide whether their country will remain in the European Union.
The U.S. leader says he believes the EU magnifies rather than moderates British influence in the world. The U.S. president's remarks at a joint news conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron are a boost for Mr. Cameron, who has come out in support of remaining in the European Union.
Mr. Obama made his remarks after first making his position known in a column published in The Telegraph newspaper moments after Air Force One touched down at Stansted Airport outside London late Thursday.
This is VOA news.
Medical examiners have performed an autopsy on legendary U.S. musician Prince to try to determine why he died. But authorities cautioned that the results might not be made public for weeks.
The 57-year-old artist was found dead Thursday in an elevator at the Paisley Park Studios complex where he lived outside the northern city of Minneapolis, Minnesota.
During his news conference in London with British Prime Minister David Cameron, President Obama called Prince's death a "remarkable loss" and lauded the performer's talents.
"I love Prince because he put out great music and he was a great performer. I didn't know him well. He came to perform at the White House last year and was extraordinary.”
Mr. Obama said he listened to Prince's songs "Purple Rain" and "Delirious" on Friday morning at the U.S. ambassador's residence in London where he is staying.
The governor of southern U.S. state Virginia signed an executive order Friday, restoring voting rights to more than 200,000 convicted felons.
Previously, Virginia, like most other states, had passed laws restricting the rights of people convicted of committing felony offenses.
But instead of pushing legislators to change the Civil War-era law, Governor Terry McAuliffe claims he has the executive authority to overturn it on his own, and Friday restored voting rights to both violent and non-violent offenders.
The governor and his supporters say the action eliminates a measure that was originally aimed at disenfranchising African-Americans.
His opponents point to the fact that the action will boost the rolls of likely Democratic voters for this November's presidential election.
A next major test in the U.S. presidential campaign comes Tuesday when five eastern states hold Democratic primaries in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island.
The two presidential front-runners, Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton, appear well-positioned to pick up more delegates than solidifying their status as the top contenders.
NATO and Russia held their first dialogue in two years this week.
The meeting among ambassadors of the alliance and Russia in Brussels Wednesday failed to produce agreements, but analysts say it has raised hope that Russia may be making a new effort to emerge from isolation following its annexation of Crimea and support for separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine.
Russia is still under sanctions from the United States and other members of NATO, which called on Russian forces to stop their actions to destabilize eastern Ukraine.

With two months old cessation of hostilities agreement in Syria rapidly disintegrating, US and Russia working to reinforce cease-fires in Latakia in the suburb of Damascus. Meantime, there are concerns about the ongoing airstrikes on Aleppo where more than two hundred thirty have died in recent days. A suicide bomber driving a car near a group of Shiite Muslim pilgrims outside of Baghdad exploded today.
At least seventeen were killed, forty others wounded.
No one immediately took credit for that bombing. US military has disciplined sixteen service members for their roles in a deadly airstrike on an Afghan hospital last year that left forty two people dead.
General Joseph Votel, the head of the US Central Command, says an investigation found the tragedy was somewhat the result of equipment failures.
“The investigation concluded that certain personnel failed to comply with the rules of engagement, and the law of armed conflict. However, the investigation did not conclude that these failures amounted to a war crime.”
The General said the hospital which was operated by Doctors Without Borders, was mistakenly attacked and that the real target was an insurgent stronghold about four hundred meters away. Rescue crews in the Kenyan capital Nairobi are searching for survivors after flooding caused a seven story building to collapse, killing at least seven people trapping an unknown number of others. Spokeswoman for the Kenyan Red Cross said authorities don't know how many people are trapped in the rubble, large residential building was located and the low income highly populated neighborhood in Nairobi.

The incident came just hours after the Olympic flame was lit in Greece and began a 15-week journey to Rio.
Australia says it is building up its capability to thwart cyber crime. Phil Mercer reports.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull says defenses need to be boosted against foreign hackers because of what he calls the unprecedented "scale and reach of malicious cyber activity." To help in this effort, the prime minister is seeking closer collaboration between the government and businesses, and appointing a special ambassador to coordinate efforts with foreign governments. Australia has also admitted that it has the capacity to respond to threats by launching cyber attacks of its own.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Austria approves strict asylum laws. The bill permits the Austrian government to declare a "state of emergency" if migrant numbers suddenly rise. The law also stipulates that asylum seekers would be turned back directly at the border, including those from war-torn countries like Syria. United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is concerned about actions such as the one taken by Austria. "Such policies and measures negatively affect the obligations of member states on the international humanitarian law and European law." :Ban Ki-moon. An airstrike in Syria has destroyed a hospital in Aleppo supported by Doctors Without Borders. At least 20 people were killed in the bombing. Among the dead were two doctors, including the last pediatrician working in rebel-controlled areas of Aleppo.
The airstrike was part of a violent 24 hours in Aleppo which saw more than 60 people killed in fighting between Syrian forces and rebels. United Nations envoy Staffan de Mistura says the February cessation of hostilities that he helped negotiate "hangs by a thread" and could totally collapse at any time. North Korea has apparently test-fired an intermediate-range missile. The missile is believed to have crashed seconds after takeoff in what appears to be the second such failure in a matter of weeks. Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has denied signing any agreement with the Chinese government that would allow China to occupy the Paracel Islands in the South China Sea.

Deputy Secretary of State Antony Blinken spoke to the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Thursday. This is VOA news. U.S. Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump says Democrat Hillary Clinton would have no chance at the presidency except that she is playing what he called the "woman's card" in hopes of becoming the first female U.S. president. Trump campaigned Thursday in Indiana, which he sees as crucial to winning the nomination. "With a long way to go although we don't have a long way if I can win in Indiana. If I win, it's over. It's over. If we win in Indiana, it's over." Opinion polls show Democrat Hillary Clinton has about a nine percent advantage over Trump [worldwide] nationwide, rather. U.S. economic growth slowed in the first few months of 2016. A report Thursday by the Commerce Department shows growth in that period was much slower than the last quarter of the year - only at an annual rate of one and one-half percent. The South Sudanese government and opposition officials say they are moving closer to forming a transitional government. President Salva Kiir's spokesman said the current cabinet will likely be dissolved "any time now." He said Mr. Kiir and First Vice President Riek Machar are finalizing consultations on the formation of a transitional government. The United Nations Security Council removed a 12-year-old arms embargo on Ivory Coast Thursday and renewed the U.N. peacekeeping mission in the country for another year. The embargo was imposed in 2004 after the country's civil war. The Iraqi government has shut down the Al-Jazeera office in Baghdad Iraq's Communications and Media Commission decided to revoke the news agency's license and close its office for one year effective Wednesday. The government cited what it called Al-Jazeera's "continuing violations" of the rules issued to regulate coverage of "the war on terror." Iraqi authorities have long believed Al-Jazeera's media coverage as hostile to Iraq's Shi'ite majority and too friendly toward the Islamic State group. Hundreds of protesters demonstrated outside the U.S. embassy in Myanmar Thursday over its use of the term Rohingya to describe the country's ethnic Muslim group. The protesters, [joined some] joined by some Buddhist monks, are calling on the group to be referred to as "Bengalis," insisting they are illegal immigrants from Bangladesh.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. U.S. President Barack Obama says the United States and the European Union must move forward on a free trade agreement.
Despite opposition to the idea, Mr. Obama spoke during a joint news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Germany.
"During presidential elections, it's always tough when we're in the heat of campaigns. People naturally are going to worry more about what's lost than what's gained with respect to trade agreements. But I am confident that we're gonna be able to get this done.”
Opponents have been critical of what they perceive as negotiations carried out away from public scrutiny, and they fear the pact will hand too much power to big multinationals at the expense of consumers and workers.
Exit polls show the candidate of Austria's anti-immigration Freedom Party winning the first round of presidential elections, gathering more than 35 percent of the vote. The exit polls show the party beating five rivals, including nominees of the governing coalition.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David Byrd reporting. U.S. President Barack Obama will head to Germany to drum up support for a trade pact.
Mr. Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel will discuss the global economy, terrorism, transatlantic security and many other issues during his two-day visit to Germany.
The two also hope to build support for the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, or TTIP. The free-trade pact is being negotiated by the U.S. and the European Union.
During a town home meeting with British young people Saturday, Mr. Obama said that each country has barriers that have to be overcome for trade deals to work.
"Getting trade deals done is tough, because each country has its own parochial interests and factions. And in order to get a trade deal done, each country has to give something up. So it's a time-consuming process.”
Mr. Obama is also expected to express support for a deal between the European Union and Turkey to manage the flow of migrants and refugees from Syria and other countries.
The leaders and their counterparts from Britain, France and Italy will also hold talks ahead of the NATO summit set for July in Warsaw.
Meanwhile, in Hanover Saturday, tens of thousands of protesters gathered to demonstrate against the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership.
Trade unionists, nationalists and greens groups say the deal will drive down wages, erode consumer protection and damage the environment.
Mr. Obama and other proponents of the pact say that lowering tariffs and harmonizing rules will give a boost to businesses at a time of world economic uncertainty.

Turkey's Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu says his country's efforts to deter Syrians from entering Greece by sea have drastically cut daily migrant voyages from 6,000 in November to as few as 130 this month.
Davutoğlu spoke Saturday from the Turkish city of Gaziantep near the Syrian border alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel and European Council President Donald Tusk.
Tusk described Turkey as "the best example for the whole world" of how refugees should be treated.
"Today Turkey is the best example for the whole world (for) how we should treat refugees. No one has a right to lecture Turkey (on) what it should do. I'm really proud that you are my partner and I'm absolutely sure that we will succeed.”
On Friday, Amnesty International urged the European delegation not to "close their eyes to the catalog of human rights abuses faced by refugees" in Turkey.
Amnesty's comments followed a recent European Parliament report that criticized Turkey's record on human rights and media freedom in 2015.
That report urged the country to improve its human rights record, and said Ankara's bid to join the EU will succeed or fail based on how it meets those demands.

VOA news for Thursday, May 5th, 2016 From Washington this is VOA news. I'm Victor Beattie reporting. The US and Russia have brokered a localized forty eight hours ceasefire over the embattled city of Aleppo, where fighting has left nearly three hundred civilians dead in the past two weeks. US Secretary of State John Kerry Wednesday said that applies to all parts of Syria. “We expect all the parties to the cessation of hostilities to fully abide by the agreed cessation in Aleppo. That means the regime and the opposition alike. And we also expect them to live by the cessation throughout the country. Pursuant to the terms that were arrived at and agreed upon in Munich in February of this year.” UN Undersecretary General for Political Affairs Jeffrey Feltman, addressing an emergency session of the UN security council on Syria, said the truce in Aleppo is urgently needed. “Aleppo's increasingly becoming a shell of what it once was. Government aerial bombardment the city over the last two weeks represent some of the worst of the war. Opposition shelling of government controlled neighborhoods has also led to death and destruction. There's a clear danger that these attacks and counterattacks will continue to escalate and even spread beyond Aleppo.” Recent upsurge in fighting has also halted progress in reaching a political agreement between the government and opposition. Meanwhile, rebel commanders are accusing Russian artillery units of being part of the fighting for control of Aleppo. UN and local officials say machete wielding attackers killed at least sixteen villagers in a nighttime assault Tuesday on a village in the eastern Beni territory of north Kivu province of Democratic Republic of Congo. The Center of Study for the Promotion of Peace, Democracy and Human Rights said the suspects were likely link to the Allied Democratic Forces, a rebel group which has its origin in Uganda.

VOA news for Wednesday, May 4th, 2016 Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Voters in the Midwestern U.S. state of Indiana went to the polls today in the latest U.S. presidential primary election. Shortly after the polls closed, Republican front-runner Donald Trump was projected by networks to be the winner, beating Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Ohio Governor John Kasich. The victory is believed to put Trump on the path to clinching the Republican Party's presidential nomination. On the Democratic side, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton held a slim lead over Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders as the vote count began. But media reports say the contest is too close to call. A team led by the U.S., Russia and the U.N. is working to finalize a plan that could lead to the restoration of a cessation of hostilities in Syria, where fighting between the government and rebels could hinder efforts to fight the Islamic State group. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said military-to-military teams are working on details. He commented Tuesday, a day after holding emergency talks in Geneva with officials including U.N. Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura. Kerry also spoke by phone to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. A U.S. Navy SEAL has been killed by enemy fire during an Islamic State attack on a Kurdish Peshmerga position in northern Iraq. The death was announced Tuesday in Germany by Defense Secretary Ash Carter. "An American service member was killed in Iraq in the neighborhood of Irbil.” A press secretary said the service member was "advising and assisting Peshmerga forces." A top French trade official says trade negotiations between the United States and the European Union are likely to grind to a halt, that, he says, due to the U.S. reluctance to make concessions. This is VOA news. The United Nations Security Council approved a resolution on Tuesday demanding all parties protect hospitals, health care providers and medical facilities against violence and be held accountable in case they don't. Gerard van Bohemen [a new] is the New Zealand ambassador to the United Nations: "Today, the Council has spoken with one voice to deliver a firm response to this growing global problem. We are shining a light on behavior that is becoming all too prevalent but should just not be happening.” The adoption of the resolution in the U.N. followed a series of attacks on hospitals in war zones worldwide. The European Commission is due to release details of a plan to overhaul the EU asylum system Wednesday. The plans are expected to touch off renewed debate on how Europe should handle the influx of migrants. Transparency International says roughly one in three people in the Middle East and North Africa have had to pay a bribe for public services. A Transparency report released Tuesday says bribes are commonly used to obtain public services, in court systems and among regional police, as well as for medical care, documents, permits and electric and water service. The rights group Amnesty International says more than 1,000 Iraqis are being held without charge at makeshift counterterrorism centers throughout the country. Amnesty says many of the detainees were taken when Iraqi forces recaptured their towns from Islamic State forces. Many are suspected of collaborating with the militant group. Counter-terrorism officers tell Amnesty they lack personnel to carry out investigations in a timely manner and don't have the resources to treat detainees humanely. The governor of the southeastern U.S. state of Georgia has vetoed a bill backed by his fellow Republicans that would have allowed college students to carry concealed guns on campuses across the state. Tuesday's veto came nearly a month after Governor Nathan Deal angered many in his state by vetoing religious liberty legislation that would have extended legal protections to opponents of same-sex marriages. Nigeria's vice president says the previous government stole some $15 billion of public money through fraudulent arms agreements. Vice President Yemi Osinbajo said Tuesday the money was lost due to "corrupt practices in security equipment spending" during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan. The Kenyan Red Cross has located the father of a baby who was rescued from the rubble of a collapsed building, more than three days after the building came down.

VOA news for Sunday, May 1st, 2016 Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David Byrd reporting. Hundreds of supporters of Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr stormed the Iraq's parliament building Saturday to protest a continuing deadlock in approval of a new cabinet. The incident inside the parliament building followed Sadr's denunciation of the government's failure to reform a political quota system that's blamed for rampant corruption. Supporters of Sadr have been demonstrating in Baghdad for weeks responding to their leader's call to put pressure on Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi to follow through on months-old reform promises. Hours after the protesters stormed the building, Abadi called on them to return to areas set aside for demonstrations and not to infringe on public property. As night fell, the demonstrators set up tents inside the Green Zone, which houses government ministries, the parliament and foreign embassies, including the U.S. embassy. About 30 airstrikes by Syrian government warplanes and helicopter gunships hit rebel-held areas of the city of Aleppo Saturday, killing at least five people. According to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, nearly 250 civilians have died in shelling, rocket fire and air raids in the past eight days. The surge of violence comes as the International Committee of the Red Cross warned that the intensification of fighting could bring many people closer to a humanitarian disaster in the city. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will travel to Geneva on Sunday for talks on the Syrian situation. The State Department said Kerry will discuss ongoing efforts to reaffirm a cessation of hostilities. This is VOA news. Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta set fire to his country's ivory stock pile on Saturday, with more than 100 tons of elephant tusk and rhino horn going up in smoke. As VOA's Jill Craig reports, the massive burn was intended to send a message to the world that ivory is worth more on an elephant than it is in the market. Plumes of smoke filled the air of a muddy Nairobi National Park as Kenya's President Kenyatta presided over the burning of 105 tons of elephant ivory as well as 1.35 tons of rhino horn. "The height of the pile of ivory before us marks the strength of our resolve. Before you, ladies and gentlemen, is the largest haul of ivory and horn ever to be destroyed in this manner.” Critics have argued that poor countries like Kenya should sell the ivory to improve the lives of their people. The Kenya Wildlife Service has responded that selling these illegal trophies dramatically increases elephant poaching, threatening the animals' very existence. Jill Craig, VOA news, Nairobi. Rescue crews in the Kenyan capital are searching for survivors after flooding caused a six-story residential building to collapse, killing at least 12 people and trapping an unknown number inside. Authorities said Saturday more than 134 people have been rescued and taken to hospitals to treat their injuries. The Kenyan Red Cross said 150 units in the building and adjacent homes were affected. The residential building is located in a low-income, highly populated neighborhood in Nairobi. Heavy rains caused flooding and landslides in many areas of the city that made it difficult for rescuers to reach the scene. Authorities in Italy are still searching for more than 80 migrants that are missing after an inflatable boat sank off the coast of Libya. The International Organization for Migration said that as many as 110 people were on board when the boat left Libya. An Italian cargo ship rescued 26 migrants from the boat that was sinking. The rescued migrants were transferred to an Italian coast guard vessel and taken to Lampedusa. President Obama used his weekly media address to call for the U.S. Senate to consider Merrick Garland, his nominee for the Supreme Court. Mr. Obama said it was time for the Senate to do its job and consider Judge Garland to replace the late Antonin Scalia. "The Supreme Court must remain above partisan politics. I've done my job - I nominated someone as qualified as Merrick Garland. Now it's time for the Senate to do their job.” Senate Republicans have vowed not to consider any nominee until after November's election. For more, log on to our website.

VOA news for Wednesday, April 27th, 2016 Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Polls are closing in five U.S. states holding presidential primary elections. Voters in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island are expected to have given a majority of convention delegates to front-runners Donald Trump on the Republican side and Hillary Clinton on the Democratic side. [Voters] Vote returns, rather, are just beginning to appear. Trump got good news Tuesday when the NBC News|SurveyMonkey poll released figures that indicate that he has 50 percent support from Republican voters. Spain's King Felipe met Tuesday with political leaders in a last-resort attempt to break an electoral deadlock. The king concluded that none of the political parties has enough support to form a government and that the nation will have new elections June 26. The United States deployed F-22 fighter jets to Romania as a sign of support for NATO's eastern European allies, facing aggression from Russia. The fighter jets landed Monday at an air base in the country's southeast. South Sudan rebel leader Riek Machar returned to the capital on Tuesday after two and a half years of civil war and was sworn in as the country's top vice president. Jason Patinkin reports. Riek Machar fled Juba two and a half years ago as South Sudan's war broke out. Now he's come back and has taken up the post of first vice president under President Salva Kiir. Machar and Kiir's forces have waged a brutal war against each other since December 2013, a few months after the president fired Machar as his deputy. The two men signed a peace deal last year but implementation has been slow, with fighting continuing in some areas. Machar's return raises prospects that the deal can start taking effect. Jason Patinkin, Juba. This is VOA news. Eleven men, eight of them soldiers, have been killed at a military barracks in Cape Verde. Officials in the West African nation say a disgruntled soldier is suspected of the killings. Two Spanish nationals are among the dead. The suspected gunman is still at large. Tuesday marks the 30th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear accident, in which an explosion at a power plant near the town contaminated a wide area with radiation. United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon spoke today about the desolation he witnessed when he visited the area. "The reactor encased in concrete, the empty villages and the sense of broken lives made a deep impression on me. Let us never forget Chernobyl.” More than 200 tons of uranium are still inside the reactor site, fueling fears that new radiation leaks could occur in the area. A poll released Tuesday indicates six out of 10 Brazilians believe new elections could resolve the country's political crisis. The IBOPE poll showed 62 percent of Brazilians want President Dilma Rousseff and Vice President Michel Temer to step down so new elections can be held. Some Venezuelans were surprised Monday by rolling four-hour electricity blackouts. The blackouts are due to a drought that has rendered hydroelectric power plants nearly useless. The government says the power outages will last 40 days. An al-Qaeda-affiliated group has claimed responsibility for the killing of a Bangladeshi gay rights activist and his friend. Ansar al-Islam said on Twitter it killed Xulhaz Mannan and Tanay Mojumda on Monday, calling the two "pioneers of practicing and promoting homosexuality" in Bangladesh. White House spokesman Josh Earnest spoke about the killing. "Mr. Mannan set an example of dignity, courage and selflessness, and his legacy will live on in the causes that he championed.” Several witnesses told police the assailants shouted "Allahu Akbar" while fleeing. The killings resemble the murders of several secular bloggers and activists in Bangladesh over the past few years. A federal judge has upheld a North Carolina law, requiring voters to show photo identification at the polls. Tuesday's ruling by U.S. District Judge Thomas Schroeder in Winston-Salem is a victory for Republicans who contend the law is needed to prevent a voter fraud. A U.S. general said Tuesday the number of foreign fighters entering Iraq and Syria to join the Islamic State group has dropped to a tiny fraction of those entering the country a year ago. Deputy Commander for Operations and Intelligence for the U.S.-led coalition Major General Peter [Petersen] Gersten spoke to reporters from Baghdad. I'm David DeForest in Washington.

VOA news for Tuesday, April 26th, 2016 Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. President Barack Obama orders an increase in the number of U.S. special operations forces in Syria. Mr. Obama is urging European nations to ramp up their contributions to the coalition fighting the Islamic State group. Speaking at an industrial trade fair Monday in Hanover, Germany, the U.S. president says up to 250 additional personnel will join a team of about 50 U.S. troops in Syria. "Just as I've approved additional support for Iraqi forces against ISIL, I've decided to increase U.S. support for local forces fighting ISIL in Syria.” Earlier this month, the United States announced the deployment of an additional 200 troops and several Apache attack helicopters to Iraq. Diplomatic sources say a group of Taliban negotiators has arrived in Pakistan for "exploratory" meetings with authorities in Islamabad. The sources say the visit is part of efforts that Pakistan is making to facilitate resumption of Afghan peace and reconciliation talks. But when contacted by VOA, a Taliban spokesman said he was unaware that the delegation had traveled to Pakistan. The development comes as the same day as Afghanistan's President Ashraf Ghani told parliament that Pakistan is to blame for not stopping fugitive Taliban leaders from plotting violence in Afghanistan. Saudi Arabia unveiled a long-term plan that could result in its most significant economic changes in decades. The plan would propose a shift away from the dependence on petroleum as the country's most valuable asset. Saudi Arabia's economy has been hit hard by sharp drops in crude oil prices, forcing the world's largest exporter of oil to find new sources of income. This is VOA news. The United States has pledged $10 million to aid those affected by the fallout of the Chernobyl disaster. The announcement coincides with the 30th anniversary of the Ukraine nuclear accident. The April 26, 1986, explosion at Chernobyl's No. 4 reactor forced the evacuation of 350,000 residents working and living in the surrounding area. Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump is ridiculing his two rivals' efforts to derail his campaign. Trump's challengers, Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Ohio Governor John Kasich, announced a plan Sunday to run in selective primaries to try to deny Trump of first ballot victory at the party's July convention. Trump calls it a "horrible act of desperation.” "If you add up the both votes, and if you add up the both delegates they're way behind me, so it doesn't matter. But it takes two guys, longtime politicians, to try and get together to try and beat Trump, and yet they're way behind.” The Cruz-Kasich strategy signals a marked shift for Cruz, who has previously rejected overtures to join with Kasich to try to block Trump. Iran has threatened legal action against the United States if $2 billion in frozen funds are diverted to compensate American families of people killed by Iran-sponsored terrorism. Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said his government will hold the U.S. government responsible for protecting Iran's frozen funds. A car bomb in a predominantly Shiite commercial district in eastern Baghdad Monday exploded, killing at least 11 civilians and wounding 38. Saudi-led coalition forces in Yemen say they have killed more than 800 al-Qaeda fighters in a single attack. The death toll in the strike on the militant-held town of Mukalla could not be independently verified. A military general in Burundi was shot and killed while dropping his daughter off at school. General Athanase Kararuza, an adviser to Burundi's vice president, was killed along with his wife and one of his bodyguards in Bujumbura. Meanwhile, the International Criminal Court has announced it will examine outbreaks of killings, torture, rapes and other crimes in Burundi over the past year. Here is chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda: "Because all these acts appear to fall within the jurisdiction of the ICC, I have decided to open a preliminary examination into the situation in Burundi since April of 2015.” A preliminary examination is not an investigation but instead a process of determining whether a formal investigation is necessary.

From Washington This is VOA news. I'm Sarah Williams reporting. North Korea has apparently test-fired an the intermediate range missile that crashed seconds after takeoff. South Korea's defense ministry reported the failed launch Thursday. The incident comes less than a week after Pyongyang celebrated the launch of a missile from a submarine. South Korea told Yonhap news agency the missile flew for about thirty kilometers and the test did not appear to have been a success. Pyongyang's latest missile launches come as South Korea and the United States conduct annual joint military drills that North Korea has labeled “a provocation.” US officials say efforts to squeeze the Islamic State In Iraq And Syria have put the self-declared caliphate on shaky ground, leaving the terror group in perhaps as vulnerable a state as it has been since the start of the US led bombing campaign. For months, US military officials have been touting IS's territorial losses, up to forty percent of the landed once controlled in Iraq and upwards of ten percent of the areas it held in Syria. But military and intelligence officials now say the bombing campaign, along with pressure from US partners on the ground, is eating away at IS’s ability to send forces into the fight. Leading US Republican presidential contender Donald Trump called Wednesday for “sharp changes” in US foreign policy to put American interests first. He said current US foreign policy is a complete and total disaster. Trump attacked President Barack Obama's handling of US foreign affairs, adecision made by his one time top diplomat, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton is the likely democratic presidential candidate. This is VOA news. A senior intelligence analyst says members of Al-Shabab in Somalia, who recently pledged allegiance to Islamic state, are moving into the capital, Mogadishu. Colonel Abdullahi Ali Maow, a former national intelligence officer who now heads the new Mogadishu-based Somalia Institute for Security Studies, told VOA that some al-Shabab members are fleeing to the capital and to areas near the border with Kenya because they were overpowered in the region of Middle Juba. Maow said Mogadishu is attractive because, as a city of several million people, it is an easy place to blend in. This week, Islamic State claimed responsibility for an attack on Somalia when an explosion targeted a convoy of the African Union troops outside the capital. But AMISOM military spokesman Joseph Kibet told VOA that Islamic State may not have been behind that attack. US authorities have taken more than one hundred suspected gang members off the streets of New York in what they're calling the largest gang take down in the city's history. The suspects were taken into custody Wednesday during several raids. William Bratton is the Commissioner of New York police. “These gang members do not belong on our streets. Instead they belong exactly where they're going. Federal prison for many years. Where they won't be surrounded by their buddies, they won’t be close to their families, and they will no longer be free to terrorize the neighborhoods in which they grew up.” Prosecutors are charging members of the "2 Fly YGZ" and "The Big Money Bosses" with racketeering narcotics and fire arms offenses. South Korea has announced its Olympic athletes will wear long sleeve shirts and pants containing mosquito repellent for ceremonies and training during the twenty sixteen Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. The uniforms are meant to ward off mosquito borne transmission of the Zika virus which causes only mild symptoms in most people but can cause birth defects when pregnant women are infected. The virus is also been found to be sexually transmissible meaning an infected athlete, while not pregnant, could bring the virus home and pass it on to a partner. Russia has launched the first rocket from its new cosmodrome, Vostochny, after a one-day delay for technical reasons.

VOA news for Saturday, April 23rd, 2016 Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Phoebe Zimmermann reporting. More than 170 countries signed an agreement Friday aimed at limiting the rise of global temperatures and slowing the effects of climate change on the planet. The deal which was agreed to in Paris at the end of last year opened for signatures on Friday in honor of Earth Day. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon warned that this action is overdue. "The window for keeping global temperature rise well below two degrees Celsius, let alone 1.5 degrees, is rapidly closing. The era of consumption without consequences is over.” The leader also said nations must intensify efforts to de-carbonize their economies and urged support for developing countries in making this transaction. The countries signing the deal represent more than 93 percent of the planet's greenhouse gas emissions. The world's biggest emitters, China and the United States, together account for about 40 percent of emissions and both countries urged early enforcement of the deal. President Obama has dived into a heated debate over a June 23 referendum in which British voters will decide whether their country will remain in the European Union. The U.S. leader says he believes the EU magnifies rather than moderates British influence in the world. The U.S. president's remarks at a joint news conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron are a boost for Mr. Cameron, who has come out in support of remaining in the European Union. Mr. Obama made his remarks after first making his position known in a column published in The Telegraph newspaper moments after Air Force One touched down at Stansted Airport outside London late Thursday. This is VOA news. Medical examiners have performed an autopsy on legendary U.S. musician Prince to try to determine why he died. But authorities cautioned that the results might not be made public for weeks. The 57-year-old artist was found dead Thursday in an elevator at the Paisley Park Studios complex where he lived outside the northern city of Minneapolis, Minnesota. During his news conference in London with British Prime Minister David Cameron, President Obama called Prince's death a "remarkable loss" and lauded the performer's talents. "I love Prince because he put out great music and he was a great performer. I didn't know him well. He came to perform at the White House last year and was extraordinary.” Mr. Obama said he listened to Prince's songs "Purple Rain" and "Delirious" on Friday morning at the U.S. ambassador's residence in London where he is staying. The governor of southern U.S. state Virginia signed an executive order Friday, restoring voting rights to more than 200,000 convicted felons. Previously, Virginia, like most other states, had passed laws restricting the rights of people convicted of committing felony offenses. But instead of pushing legislators to change the Civil War-era law, Governor Terry McAuliffe claims he has the executive authority to overturn it on his own, and Friday restored voting rights to both violent and non-violent offenders. The governor and his supporters say the action eliminates a measure that was originally aimed at disenfranchising African-Americans. His opponents point to the fact that the action will boost the rolls of likely Democratic voters for this November's presidential election. A next major test in the U.S. presidential campaign comes Tuesday when five eastern states hold Democratic primaries in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. The two presidential front-runners, Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton, appear well-positioned to pick up more delegates than solidifying their status as the top contenders. NATO and Russia held their first dialogue in two years this week. The meeting among ambassadors of the alliance and Russia in Brussels Wednesday failed to produce agreements, but analysts say it has raised hope that Russia may be making a new effort to emerge from isolation following its annexation of Crimea and support for separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine. Russia is still under sanctions from the United States and other members of NATO, which called on Russian forces to stop their actions to destabilize eastern Ukraine.

With two months old cessation of hostilities agreement in Syria rapidly disintegrating, US and Russia working to reinforce cease-fires in Latakia in the suburb of Damascus. Meantime, there are concerns about the ongoing airstrikes on Aleppo where more than two hundred thirty have died in recent days. A suicide bomber driving a car near a group of Shiite Muslim pilgrims outside of Baghdad exploded today. At least seventeen were killed, forty others wounded. No one immediately took credit for that bombing. US military has disciplined sixteen service members for their roles in a deadly airstrike on an Afghan hospital last year that left forty two people dead. General Joseph Votel, the head of the US Central Command, says an investigation found the tragedy was somewhat the result of equipment failures. “The investigation concluded that certain personnel failed to comply with the rules of engagement, and the law of armed conflict. However, the investigation did not conclude that these failures amounted to a war crime.” The General said the hospital which was operated by Doctors Without Borders, was mistakenly attacked and that the real target was an insurgent stronghold about four hundred meters away. Rescue crews in the Kenyan capital Nairobi are searching for survivors after flooding caused a seven story building to collapse, killing at least seven people trapping an unknown number of others.

The accident on the Tim Maia bike path was the latest in a series of problems besetting preparations for the August Olympic Games. The incident came just hours after the Olympic flame was lit in Greece and began a 15-week journey to Rio. Australia says it is building up its capability to thwart cyber crime. Phil Mercer reports. Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull says defenses need to be boosted against foreign hackers because of what he calls the unprecedented "scale and reach of malicious cyber activity." To help in this effort, the prime minister is seeking closer collaboration between the government and businesses, and appointing a special ambassador to coordinate efforts with foreign governments. Australia has also admitted that it has the capacity to respond to threats by launching cyber attacks of its own. Phil Mercer, Sydney. On Friday, world leaders will take action at the United Nations to try to slow the effects of climate change and fix some of its damage. More than 60 presidents and prime ministers as well as dozens of other top officials from more than 130 countries will gather in New York to sign the climate change agreement reached in Paris in December. A Norwegian law firm says it has filed a lawsuit with an Oslo court to allow American leaker Edward Snowden to travel to Norway for an award ceremony without fear of extradition back to the United States. Snowden is a former U.S. intelligence contractor who leaked U.S. government documents. Under the U.S. Espionage Act, Snowden faces charges in the U.S. that could land him in prison for up to 30 years. Norwegian PEN has invited Snowden to receive the Ossietzky Prize for 2016.

The bill permits the Austrian government to declare a "state of emergency" if migrant numbers suddenly rise. The law also stipulates that asylum seekers would be turned back directly at the border, including those from war-torn countries like Syria. United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is concerned about actions such as the one taken by Austria. "Such policies and measures negatively affect the obligations of member states on the international humanitarian law and European law." :Ban Ki-moon. An airstrike in Syria has destroyed a hospital in Aleppo supported by Doctors Without Borders. At least 20 people were killed in the bombing. Among the dead were two doctors, including the last pediatrician working in rebel-controlled areas of Aleppo. The airstrike was part of a violent 24 hours in Aleppo which saw more than 60 people killed in fighting between Syrian forces and rebels. United Nations envoy Staffan de Mistura says the February cessation of hostilities that he helped negotiate "hangs by a thread" and could totally collapse at any time. North Korea has apparently test-fired an intermediate-range missile. The missile is believed to have crashed seconds after takeoff in what appears to be the second such failure in a matter of weeks. Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has denied signing any agreement with the Chinese government that would allow China to occupy the Paracel Islands in the South China Sea.

Trump campaigned Thursday in Indiana, which he sees as crucial to winning the nomination. "With a long way to go although we don't have a long way if I can win in Indiana. If I win, it's over.

U.S. President Barack Obama says the United States and the European Union must move forward on a free trade agreement. Despite opposition to the idea, Mr. Obama spoke during a joint news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Germany. "During presidential elections, it's always tough when we're in the heat of campaigns. People naturally are going to worry more about what's lost than what's gained with respect to trade agreements. But I am confident that we're gonna be able to get this done.” Opponents have been critical of what they perceive as negotiations carried out away from public scrutiny, and they fear the pact will hand too much power to big multinationals at the expense of consumers and workers. Exit polls show the candidate of Austria's anti-immigration Freedom Party winning the first round of presidential elections, gathering more than 35 percent of the vote. The exit polls show the party beating five rivals, including nominees of the governing coalition.

U.S. President Barack Obama will head to Germany to drum up support for a trade pact. Mr. Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel will discuss the global economy, terrorism, transatlantic security and many other issues during his two-day visit to Germany. The two also hope to build support for the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, or TTIP. The free-trade pact is being negotiated by the U.S. and the European Union. During a town home meeting with British young people Saturday, Mr. Obama said that each country has barriers that have to be overcome for trade deals to work. "Getting trade deals done is tough, because each country has its own parochial interests and factions. And in order to get a trade deal done, each country has to give something up. So it's a time-consuming process.” Mr. Obama is also expected to express support for a deal between the European Union and Turkey to manage the flow of migrants and refugees from Syria and other countries. The leaders and their counterparts from Britain, France and Italy will also hold talks ahead of the NATO summit set for July in Warsaw. Meanwhile, in Hanover Saturday, tens of thousands of protesters gathered to demonstrate against the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership.

Davutoğlu spoke Saturday from the Turkish city of Gaziantep near the Syrian border alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel and European Council President Donald Tusk. Tusk described Turkey as "the best example for the whole world" of how refugees should be treated. "Today Turkey is the best example for the whole world (for) how we should treat refugees. No one has a right to lecture Turkey (on) what it should do. I'm really proud that you are my partner and I'm absolutely sure that we will succeed.” On Friday, Amnesty International urged the European delegation not to "close their eyes to the catalog of human rights abuses faced by refugees" in Turkey. Amnesty's comments followed a recent European Parliament report that criticized Turkey's record on human rights and media freedom in 2015. That report urged the country to improve its human rights record, and said Ankara's bid to join the EU will succeed or fail based on how it meets those demands. In the race for the White House, front-runners Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton campaigned in Connecticut Saturday ahead of Tuesday's primary. Trump told a rally that he is not toning it down one day after his chief adviser assured Republican officials the GOP front-runner will show more restraint. "Get out and vote, get out and vote.

But force should be the last response to our foreign policy, not the first.” Connecticut, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island hold primaries on Tuesday.

VOA news for Thursday, May 5th, 2016
From Washington this is VOA news.
I'm Victor Beattie reporting.
The US and Russia have brokered a localized forty eight hours ceasefire over the embattled city of Aleppo, where fighting has left nearly three hundred civilians dead in the past two weeks.
US Secretary of State John Kerry Wednesday said that applies to all parts of Syria.
“We expect all the parties to the cessation of hostilities to fully abide by the agreed cessation in Aleppo. That means the regime and the opposition alike. And we also expect them to live by the cessation throughout the country. Pursuant to the terms that were arrived at and agreed upon in Munich in February of this year.”
UN Undersecretary General for Political Affairs Jeffrey Feltman, addressing an emergency session of the UN security council on Syria, said the truce in Aleppo is urgently needed.
“Aleppo's increasingly becoming a shell of what it once was.
Government aerial bombardment the city over the last two weeks represent some of the worst of the war. Opposition shelling of government controlled neighborhoods has also led to death and destruction. There's a clear danger that these attacks and counterattacks will continue to escalate and even spread beyond Aleppo.”
Recent upsurge in fighting has also halted progress in reaching a political agreement between the government and opposition.
Meanwhile, rebel commanders are accusing Russian artillery units of being part of the fighting for control of Aleppo.
UN and local officials say machete wielding attackers killed at least sixteen villagers in a nighttime assault Tuesday on a village in the eastern Beni territory of north Kivu province of Democratic Republic of Congo.
The Center of Study for the Promotion of Peace, Democracy and Human Rights said the suspects were likely link to the Allied Democratic Forces, a rebel group which has its origin in Uganda.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Voters in the Midwestern U.S. state of Indiana went to the polls today in the latest U.S. presidential primary election.
Shortly after the polls closed, Republican front-runner Donald Trump was projected by networks to be the winner, beating Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Ohio Governor John Kasich.
The victory is believed to put Trump on the path to clinching the Republican Party's presidential nomination.
On the Democratic side, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton held a slim lead over Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders as the vote count began. But media reports say the contest is too close to call.
A team led by the U.S., Russia and the U.N. is working to finalize a plan that could lead to the restoration of a cessation of hostilities in Syria, where fighting between the government and rebels could hinder efforts to fight the Islamic State group.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said military-to-military teams are working on details.
He commented Tuesday, a day after holding emergency talks in Geneva with officials including U.N. Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura.
Kerry also spoke by phone to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
A U.S. Navy SEAL has been killed by enemy fire during an Islamic State attack on a Kurdish Peshmerga position in northern Iraq. The death was announced Tuesday in Germany by Defense Secretary Ash Carter.
"An American service member was killed in Iraq in the neighborhood of Irbil.”
A press secretary said the service member was "advising and assisting Peshmerga forces." A top French trade official says trade negotiations between the United States and the European Union are likely to grind to a halt, that, he says, due to the U.S. reluctance to make concessions.
This is VOA news.
The United Nations Security Council approved a resolution on Tuesday demanding all parties protect hospitals, health care providers and medical facilities against violence and be held accountable in case they don't.
Gerard van Bohemen [a new] is the New Zealand ambassador to the United Nations: "Today, the Council has spoken with one voice to deliver a firm response to this growing global problem. We are shining a light on behavior that is becoming all too prevalent but should just not be happening.”
The adoption of the resolution in the U.N. followed a series of attacks on hospitals in war zones worldwide.
The European Commission is due to release details of a plan to overhaul the EU asylum system Wednesday.
The plans are expected to touch off renewed debate on how Europe should handle the influx of migrants.
Transparency International says roughly one in three people in the Middle East and North Africa have had to pay a bribe for public services.
A Transparency report released Tuesday says bribes are commonly used to obtain public services, in court systems and among regional police, as well as for medical care, documents, permits and electric and water service.
The rights group Amnesty International says more than 1,000 Iraqis are being held without charge at makeshift counterterrorism centers throughout the country.
Amnesty says many of the detainees were taken when Iraqi forces recaptured their towns from Islamic State forces. Many are suspected of collaborating with the militant group.
Counter-terrorism officers tell Amnesty they lack personnel to carry out investigations in a timely manner and don't have the resources to treat detainees humanely.
The governor of the southeastern U.S. state of Georgia has vetoed a bill backed by his fellow Republicans that would have allowed college students to carry concealed guns on campuses across the state.
Tuesday's veto came nearly a month after Governor Nathan Deal angered many in his state by vetoing religious liberty legislation that would have extended legal protections to opponents of same-sex marriages.
Nigeria's vice president says the previous government stole some $15 billion of public money through fraudulent arms agreements.
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo said Tuesday the money was lost due to "corrupt practices in security equipment spending" during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan.
The Kenyan Red Cross has located the father of a baby who was rescued from the rubble of a collapsed building, more than three days after the building came down.
The Red Cross reported the early morning rescue, saying the baby girl was taken to a Nairobi hospital with dehydration but no sign of other physical injuries.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David Byrd reporting. Hundreds of supporters of Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr stormed the Iraq's parliament building Saturday to protest a continuing deadlock in approval of a new cabinet.
The incident inside the parliament building followed Sadr's denunciation of the government's failure to reform a political quota system that's blamed for rampant corruption.
Supporters of Sadr have been demonstrating in Baghdad for weeks responding to their leader's call to put pressure on Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi to follow through on months-old reform promises.
Hours after the protesters stormed the building, Abadi called on them to return to areas set aside for demonstrations and not to infringe on public property.
As night fell, the demonstrators set up tents inside the Green Zone, which houses government ministries, the parliament and foreign embassies, including the U.S. embassy.
About 30 airstrikes by Syrian government warplanes and helicopter gunships hit rebel-held areas of the city of Aleppo Saturday, killing at least five people.
According to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, nearly 250 civilians have died in shelling, rocket fire and air raids in the past eight days.
The surge of violence comes as the International Committee of the Red Cross warned that the intensification of fighting could bring many people closer to a humanitarian disaster in the city.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will travel to Geneva on Sunday for talks on the Syrian situation. The State Department said Kerry will discuss ongoing efforts to reaffirm a cessation of hostilities.
This is VOA news.
Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta set fire to his country's ivory stock pile on Saturday, with more than 100 tons of elephant tusk and rhino horn going up in smoke.
As VOA's Jill Craig reports, the massive burn was intended to send a message to the world that ivory is worth more on an elephant than it is in the market.
Plumes of smoke filled the air of a muddy Nairobi National Park as Kenya's President Kenyatta presided over the burning of 105 tons of elephant ivory as well as 1.35 tons of rhino horn.
"The height of the pile of ivory before us marks the strength of our resolve. Before you, ladies and gentlemen, is the largest haul of ivory and horn ever to be destroyed in this manner.”
Critics have argued that poor countries like Kenya should sell the ivory to improve the lives of their people. The Kenya Wildlife Service has responded that selling these illegal trophies dramatically increases elephant poaching, threatening the animals' very existence.
Jill Craig, VOA news, Nairobi.
Rescue crews in the Kenyan capital are searching for survivors after flooding caused a six-story residential building to collapse, killing at least 12 people and trapping an unknown number inside.
Authorities said Saturday more than 134 people have been rescued and taken to hospitals to treat their injuries. The Kenyan Red Cross said 150 units in the building and adjacent homes were affected.
The residential building is located in a low-income, highly populated neighborhood in Nairobi.
Heavy rains caused flooding and landslides in many areas of the city that made it difficult for rescuers to reach the scene.
Authorities in Italy are still searching for more than 80 migrants that are missing after an inflatable boat sank off the coast of Libya.
The International Organization for Migration said that as many as 110 people were on board when the boat left Libya.
An Italian cargo ship rescued 26 migrants from the boat that was sinking. The rescued migrants were transferred to an Italian coast guard vessel and taken to Lampedusa.
President Obama used his weekly media address to call for the U.S. Senate to consider Merrick Garland, his nominee for the Supreme Court.
Mr. Obama said it was time for the Senate to do its job and consider Judge Garland to replace the late Antonin Scalia.
"The Supreme Court must remain above partisan politics. I've done my job - I nominated someone as qualified as Merrick Garland. Now it's time for the Senate to do their job.”
Senate Republicans have vowed not to consider any nominee until after November's election.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Polls are closing in five U.S. states holding presidential primary elections.
Voters in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island are expected to have given a majority of convention delegates to front-runners Donald Trump on the Republican side and Hillary Clinton on the Democratic side.
[Voters] Vote returns, rather, are just beginning to appear.
Trump got good news Tuesday when the NBC News|SurveyMonkey poll released figures that indicate that he has 50 percent support from Republican voters.
Spain's King Felipe met Tuesday with political leaders in a last-resort attempt to break an electoral deadlock.
The king concluded that none of the political parties has enough support to form a government and that the nation will have new elections June 26.
The United States deployed F-22 fighter jets to Romania as a sign of support for NATO's eastern European allies, facing aggression from Russia.
The fighter jets landed Monday at an air base in the country's southeast.
South Sudan rebel leader Riek Machar returned to the capital on Tuesday after two and a half years of civil war and was sworn in as the country's top vice president. Jason Patinkin reports.
Riek Machar fled Juba two and a half years ago as South Sudan's war broke out. Now he's come back and has taken up the post of first vice president under President Salva Kiir.
Machar and Kiir's forces have waged a brutal war against each other since December 2013, a few months after the president fired Machar as his deputy.
The two men signed a peace deal last year but implementation has been slow, with fighting continuing in some areas.
Machar's return raises prospects that the deal can start taking effect.
Jason Patinkin, Juba.
This is VOA news.
Eleven men, eight of them soldiers, have been killed at a military barracks in Cape Verde.
Officials in the West African nation say a disgruntled soldier is suspected of the killings. Two Spanish nationals are among the dead.
The suspected gunman is still at large.
Tuesday marks the 30th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear accident, in which an explosion at a power plant near the town contaminated a wide area with radiation.
United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon spoke today about the desolation he witnessed when he visited the area.
"The reactor encased in concrete, the empty villages and the sense of broken lives made a deep impression on me. Let us never forget Chernobyl.”
More than 200 tons of uranium are still inside the reactor site, fueling fears that new radiation leaks could occur in the area.
A poll released Tuesday indicates six out of 10 Brazilians believe new elections could resolve the country's political crisis.
The IBOPE poll showed 62 percent of Brazilians want President Dilma Rousseff and Vice President Michel Temer to step down so new elections can be held.
Some Venezuelans were surprised Monday by rolling four-hour electricity blackouts. The blackouts are due to a drought that has rendered hydroelectric power plants nearly useless.
The government says the power outages will last 40 days.
An al-Qaeda-affiliated group has claimed responsibility for the killing of a Bangladeshi gay rights activist and his friend.
Ansar al-Islam said on Twitter it killed Xulhaz Mannan and Tanay Mojumda on Monday, calling the two "pioneers of practicing and promoting homosexuality" in Bangladesh.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest spoke about the killing.
"Mr. Mannan set an example of dignity, courage and selflessness, and his legacy will live on in the causes that he championed.”
Several witnesses told police the assailants shouted "Allahu Akbar" while fleeing.
The killings resemble the murders of several secular bloggers and activists in Bangladesh over the past few years.
A federal judge has upheld a North Carolina law, requiring voters to show photo identification at the polls.
Tuesday's ruling by U.S. District Judge Thomas Schroeder in Winston-Salem is a victory for Republicans who contend the law is needed to prevent a voter fraud.
A U.S. general said Tuesday the number of foreign fighters entering Iraq and Syria to join the Islamic State group has dropped to a tiny fraction of those entering the country a year ago.
Deputy Commander for Operations and Intelligence for the U.S.-led coalition Major General Peter [Petersen] Gersten spoke to reporters from Baghdad.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. President Barack Obama orders an increase in the number of U.S. special operations forces in Syria.
Mr. Obama is urging European nations to ramp up their contributions to the coalition fighting the Islamic State group.
Speaking at an industrial trade fair Monday in Hanover, Germany, the U.S. president says up to 250 additional personnel will join a team of about 50 U.S. troops in Syria.
"Just as I've approved additional support for Iraqi forces against ISIL, I've decided to increase U.S. support for local forces fighting ISIL in Syria.”
Earlier this month, the United States announced the deployment of an additional 200 troops and several Apache attack helicopters to Iraq.
Diplomatic sources say a group of Taliban negotiators has arrived in Pakistan for "exploratory" meetings with authorities in Islamabad.
The sources say the visit is part of efforts that Pakistan is making to facilitate resumption of Afghan peace and reconciliation talks.

The development comes as the same day as Afghanistan's President Ashraf Ghani told parliament that Pakistan is to blame for not stopping fugitive Taliban leaders from plotting violence in Afghanistan.

Trump's challengers, Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Ohio Governor John Kasich, announced a plan Sunday to run in selective primaries to try to deny Trump of first ballot victory at the party's July convention.
Trump calls it a "horrible act of desperation.”

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. President Barack Obama orders an increase in the number of U.S. special operations forces in Syria.
Mr. Obama is urging European nations to ramp up their contributions to the coalition fighting the Islamic State group.
Speaking at an industrial trade fair Monday in Hanover, Germany, the U.S. president says up to 250 additional personnel will join a team of about 50 U.S. troops in Syria.
"Just as I've approved additional support for Iraqi forces against ISIL, I've decided to increase U.S. support for local forces fighting ISIL in Syria.”
Earlier this month, the United States announced the deployment of an additional 200 troops and several Apache attack helicopters to Iraq.
Diplomatic sources say a group of Taliban negotiators has arrived in Pakistan for "exploratory" meetings with authorities in Islamabad.
The sources say the visit is part of efforts that Pakistan is making to facilitate resumption of Afghan peace and reconciliation talks.
But when contacted by VOA, a Taliban spokesman said he was unaware that the delegation had traveled to Pakistan.
The development comes as the same day as Afghanistan's President Ashraf Ghani told parliament that Pakistan is to blame for not stopping fugitive Taliban leaders from plotting violence in Afghanistan.

From Washington This is VOA news. I'm Sarah Williams reporting.
North Korea has apparently test-fired an the intermediate range missile that crashed seconds after takeoff. South Korea's defense ministry reported the failed launch Thursday. The incident comes less than a week after Pyongyang celebrated the launch of a missile from a submarine. South Korea told Yonhap news agency the missile flew for about thirty kilometers and the test did not appear to have been a success. Pyongyang's latest missile launches come as South Korea and the United States conduct annual joint military drills that North Korea has labeled “a provocation.” US officials say efforts to squeeze the Islamic State In Iraq And Syria have put the self-declared caliphate on shaky ground, leaving the terror group in perhaps as vulnerable a state as it has been since the start of the US led bombing campaign. For months, US military officials have been touting IS's territorial losses, up to forty percent of the landed once controlled in Iraq and upwards of ten percent of the areas it held in Syria. But military and intelligence officials now say the bombing campaign, along with pressure from US partners on the ground, is eating away at IS’s ability to send forces into the fight. Leading US Republican presidential contender Donald Trump called Wednesday for “sharp changes” in US foreign policy to put American interests first. He said current US foreign policy is a complete and total disaster. Trump attacked President Barack Obama's handling of US foreign affairs, adecision made by his one time top diplomat, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton is the likely democratic presidential candidate. This is VOA news. A senior intelligence analyst says members of Al-Shabab in Somalia, who recently pledged allegiance to Islamic state, are moving into the capital, Mogadishu. Colonel Abdullahi Ali Maow, a former national intelligence officer who now heads the new Mogadishu-based Somalia Institute for Security Studies, told VOA that some al-Shabab members are fleeing to the capital and to areas near the border with Kenya because they were overpowered in the region of Middle Juba. Maow said Mogadishu is attractive because, as a city of several million people, it is an easy place to blend in. This week, Islamic State claimed responsibility for an attack on Somalia when an explosion targeted a convoy of the African Union troops outside the capital. But AMISOM military spokesman Joseph Kibet told VOA that Islamic State may not have been behind that attack. US authorities have taken more than one hundred suspected gang members off the streets of New York in what they're calling the largest gang take down in the city's history. The suspects were taken into custody Wednesday during several raids. William Bratton is the Commissioner of New York police. “These gang members do not belong on our streets. Instead they belong exactly where they're going. Federal prison for many years. Where they won't be surrounded by their buddies, they won’t be close to their families, and they will no longer be free to terrorize the neighborhoods in which they grew up.” Prosecutors are charging members of the "2 Fly YGZ" and "The Big Money Bosses" with racketeering narcotics and fire arms offenses. South Korea has announced its Olympic athletes will wear long sleeve shirts and pants containing mosquito repellent for ceremonies and training during the twenty sixteen Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. The uniforms are meant to ward off mosquito borne transmission of the Zika virus which causes only mild symptoms in most people but can cause birth defects when pregnant women are infected. The virus is also been found to be sexually transmissible meaning an infected athlete, while not pregnant, could bring the virus home and pass it on to a partner. Russia has launched the first rocket from its new cosmodrome, Vostochny, after a one-day delay for technical reasons.
Russian President Vladimir Putin traveled to the far-east Russian location for the launch, congratulating cosmodrome workers after the event - while also scolding them for the delay.
A suicide car bomber in Yemen detonated outside the home of Aden security chief wounding at least two people. Security guards fired on the attacker before the vehicle exploded. I'm Sarah Williams in Washington. That's the latest world news from VOA.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Phoebe Zimmermann reporting.
More than 170 countries signed an agreement Friday aimed at limiting the rise of global temperatures and slowing the effects of climate change on the planet.
The deal which was agreed to in Paris at the end of last year opened for signatures on Friday in honor of Earth Day.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon warned that this action is overdue.
"The window for keeping global temperature rise well below two degrees Celsius, let alone 1.5 degrees, is rapidly closing. The era of consumption without consequences is over.”
The leader also said nations must intensify efforts to de-carbonize their economies and urged support for developing countries in making this transaction.
The countries signing the deal represent more than 93 percent of the planet's greenhouse gas emissions.
The world's biggest emitters, China and the United States, together account for about 40 percent of emissions and both countries urged early enforcement of the deal.
President Obama has dived into a heated debate over a June 23 referendum in which British voters will decide whether their country will remain in the European Union.
The U.S. leader says he believes the EU magnifies rather than moderates British influence in the world. The U.S. president's remarks at a joint news conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron are a boost for Mr. Cameron, who has come out in support of remaining in the European Union.
Mr. Obama made his remarks after first making his position known in a column published in The Telegraph newspaper moments after Air Force One touched down at Stansted Airport outside London late Thursday.
This is VOA news.
Medical examiners have performed an autopsy on legendary U.S. musician Prince to try to determine why he died. But authorities cautioned that the results might not be made public for weeks.
The 57-year-old artist was found dead Thursday in an elevator at the Paisley Park Studios complex where he lived outside the northern city of Minneapolis, Minnesota.
During his news conference in London with British Prime Minister David Cameron, President Obama called Prince's death a "remarkable loss" and lauded the performer's talents.
"I love Prince because he put out great music and he was a great performer. I didn't know him well. He came to perform at the White House last year and was extraordinary.”
Mr. Obama said he listened to Prince's songs "Purple Rain" and "Delirious" on Friday morning at the U.S. ambassador's residence in London where he is staying.
The governor of southern U.S. state Virginia signed an executive order Friday, restoring voting rights to more than 200,000 convicted felons.
Previously, Virginia, like most other states, had passed laws restricting the rights of people convicted of committing felony offenses.
But instead of pushing legislators to change the Civil War-era law, Governor Terry McAuliffe claims he has the executive authority to overturn it on his own, and Friday restored voting rights to both violent and non-violent offenders.
The governor and his supporters say the action eliminates a measure that was originally aimed at disenfranchising African-Americans.
His opponents point to the fact that the action will boost the rolls of likely Democratic voters for this November's presidential election.
A next major test in the U.S. presidential campaign comes Tuesday when five eastern states hold Democratic primaries in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island.
The two presidential front-runners, Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton, appear well-positioned to pick up more delegates than solidifying their status as the top contenders.
NATO and Russia held their first dialogue in two years this week.
The meeting among ambassadors of the alliance and Russia in Brussels Wednesday failed to produce agreements, but analysts say it has raised hope that Russia may be making a new effort to emerge from isolation following its annexation of Crimea and support for separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine.
Russia is still under sanctions from the United States and other members of NATO, which called on Russian forces to stop their actions to destabilize eastern Ukraine.

From Washington This is VOA news. I'm Steve Norman reporting.
With two months old cessation of hostilities agreement in Syria rapidly disintegrating, US and Russia working to reinforce cease-fires in Latakia in the suburb of Damascus. Meantime, there are concerns about the ongoing airstrikes on Aleppo where more than two hundred thirty have died in recent days. A suicide bomber driving a car near a group of Shiite Muslim pilgrims outside of Baghdad exploded today.
At least seventeen were killed, forty others wounded.
No one immediately took credit for that bombing. US military has disciplined sixteen service members for their roles in a deadly airstrike on an Afghan hospital last year that left forty two people dead.
General Joseph Votel, the head of the US Central Command, says an investigation found the tragedy was somewhat the result of equipment failures.
“The investigation concluded that certain personnel failed to comply with the rules of engagement, and the law of armed conflict. However, the investigation did not conclude that these failures amounted to a war crime.”
The General said the hospital which was operated by Doctors Without Borders, was mistakenly attacked and that the real target was an insurgent stronghold about four hundred meters away. Rescue crews in the Kenyan capital Nairobi are searching for survivors after flooding caused a seven story building to collapse, killing at least seven people trapping an unknown number of others. Spokeswoman for the Kenyan Red Cross said authorities don't know how many people are trapped in the rubble, large residential building was located and the low income highly populated neighborhood in Nairobi.
Heavy rains caused flooding and landslides in many parts of the city. This is VOA news.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. U.S. President Barack Obama is in London for talks with British Prime Minister David Cameron.
The American leader arrived in the British capital after attending the Gulf Cooperation Council summit in Saudi Arabia.
Talks with Mr. Cameron will focus on countering terrorism, the refugee crisis in Europe and the global economy.
Some controversy erupted over the visit due to reports that Mr. Obama may use his visit to publicly support Britain staying in the European Union.
British voters will decide the issue in a June referendum.
The three Republican U.S. presidential candidates try to woo party officials Thursday at an oceanside resort in Florida. They hope to shape the rules that will govern the July convention that chooses the party's candidate.
Front-runner Donald Trump says he expects to have a majority of convention delegates by the time the nominating contests end in early June.
But numerous U.S. political analysts say a contested convention fight over the nomination is a distinct possibility.
American pop singer Prince has died at the age of 57.
Officials in his home state of Minnesota say deputies found him unresponsive in an elevator after they were summoned to his suburban compound. He was pronounced dead after their attempts to revive him failed.
A rights group says Egyptian security forces tortured a group of 20 people, eight of them children.
Human Rights Watch said Wednesday the torture happed in February after the subjects were arrested in the city of Alexandria.
According to the information gathered by HRW from relatives and lawyers, authorities used torture to force people to confess to crimes or give the names of other suspects.
This is VOA news.
Deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes says the U.S. is concerned about reports that Russia is moving more military equipment and personnel back to Syria. He said it would be best to focus on bolstering the diplomatic process.
Meanwhile, NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg told an audience in Turkey Thursday that the Syrian cease-fire is "under strain," but that it still represents the nation's best chances at peace.
The death toll from an explosion at a chemical plant in southeastern Mexico stands at 13 Thursday. Eighteen people are missing. Another 136 people were hurt in the blast Wednesday.
The cause of the explosion is not known.
At least two people were killed Thursday in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, when a newly bike path collapsed.
City officials say a third person was thought to be missing after a giant wave knocked the [elevator] elevated path into the sea.
The accident on the Tim Maia bike path was the latest in a series of problems besetting preparations for the August Olympic Games.
The incident came just hours after the Olympic flame was lit in Greece and began a 15-week journey to Rio.
Australia says it is building up its capability to thwart cyber crime. Phil Mercer reports.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull says defenses need to be boosted against foreign hackers because of what he calls the unprecedented "scale and reach of malicious cyber activity." To help in this effort, the prime minister is seeking closer collaboration between the government and businesses, and appointing a special ambassador to coordinate efforts with foreign governments. Australia has also admitted that it has the capacity to respond to threats by launching cyber attacks of its own.
Phil Mercer, Sydney.
On Friday, world leaders will take action at the United Nations to try to slow the effects of climate change and fix some of its damage.
More than 60 presidents and prime ministers as well as dozens of other top officials from more than 130 countries will gather in New York to sign the climate change agreement reached in Paris in December.
A Norwegian law firm says it has filed a lawsuit with an Oslo court to allow American leaker Edward Snowden to travel to Norway for an award ceremony without fear of extradition back to the United States.
Snowden is a former U.S. intelligence contractor who leaked U.S. government documents.
Under the U.S. Espionage Act, Snowden faces charges in the U.S. that could land him in prison for up to 30 years.
Norwegian PEN has invited Snowden to receive the Ossietzky Prize for 2016. The group plans to give him the award because of what they called his contribution to defend freedom of expression.

Australia says it is building up its capability to thwart cyber crime. Phil Mercer reports.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull says defenses need to be boosted against foreign hackers because of what he calls the unprecedented "scale and reach of malicious cyber activity."

Australia has also admitted that it has the capacity to respond to threats by launching cyber attacks of its own.

A Norwegian law firm says it has filed a lawsuit with an Oslo court to allow American leaker Edward Snowden to travel to Norway for an award ceremony without fear of extradition back to the United States.
Snowden is a former U.S. intelligence contractor who leaked U.S. government documents.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Austria approves strict asylum laws. The bill permits the Austrian government to declare a "state of emergency" if migrant numbers suddenly rise. The law also stipulates that asylum seekers would be turned back directly at the border, including those from war-torn countries like Syria. United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is concerned about actions such as the one taken by Austria. "Such policies and measures negatively affect the obligations of member states on the international humanitarian law and European law." :Ban Ki-moon. An airstrike in Syria has destroyed a hospital in Aleppo supported by Doctors Without Borders. At least 20 people were killed in the bombing. Among the dead were two doctors, including the last pediatrician working in rebel-controlled areas of Aleppo.
The airstrike was part of a violent 24 hours in Aleppo which saw more than 60 people killed in fighting between Syrian forces and rebels. United Nations envoy Staffan de Mistura says the February cessation of hostilities that he helped negotiate "hangs by a thread" and could totally collapse at any time. North Korea has apparently test-fired an intermediate-range missile. The missile is believed to have crashed seconds after takeoff in what appears to be the second such failure in a matter of weeks. Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has denied signing any agreement with the Chinese government that would allow China to occupy the Paracel Islands in the South China Sea. Meanwhile, the U.S. is increasing cooperation with Asian allies to counter China's assertive behavior in the South China Sea. Deputy Secretary of State Antony Blinken spoke to the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Thursday. This is VOA news. U.S. Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump says Democrat Hillary Clinton would have no chance at the presidency except that she is playing what he called the "woman's card" in hopes of becoming the first female U.S. president. Trump campaigned Thursday in Indiana, which he sees as crucial to winning the nomination. "With a long way to go although we don't have a long way if I can win in Indiana. If I win, it's over. It's over. If we win in Indiana, it's over." Opinion polls show Democrat Hillary Clinton has about a nine percent advantage over Trump [worldwide] nationwide, rather. U.S. economic growth slowed in the first few months of 2016. A report Thursday by the Commerce Department shows growth in that period was much slower than the last quarter of the year - only at an annual rate of one and one-half percent. The South Sudanese government and opposition officials say they are moving closer to forming a transitional government. President Salva Kiir's spokesman said the current cabinet will likely be dissolved "any time now." He said Mr. Kiir and First Vice President Riek Machar are finalizing consultations on the formation of a transitional government. The United Nations Security Council removed a 12-year-old arms embargo on Ivory Coast Thursday and renewed the U.N. peacekeeping mission in the country for another year. The embargo was imposed in 2004 after the country's civil war. The Iraqi government has shut down the Al-Jazeera office in Baghdad Iraq's Communications and Media Commission decided to revoke the news agency's license and close its office for one year effective Wednesday. The government cited what it called Al-Jazeera's "continuing violations" of the rules issued to regulate coverage of "the war on terror." Iraqi authorities have long believed Al-Jazeera's media coverage as hostile to Iraq's Shi'ite majority and too friendly toward the Islamic State group. Hundreds of protesters demonstrated outside the U.S. embassy in Myanmar Thursday over its use of the term Rohingya to describe the country's ethnic Muslim group. The protesters, [joined some] joined by some Buddhist monks, are calling on the group to be referred to as "Bengalis," insisting they are illegal immigrants from Bangladesh. Turkey says it has arrested 12 people in connection with Wednesday's bomb attack in the northwestern city of Bursa, in which 13 people were wounded. The state-run news agency said police detained 12 people in the town [and] as well as in Istanbul and two other cities. A female bomber blew herself up Wednesday near a mosque in Bursa's historic district, a popular tourist destination. There has been no claim of responsibility. In Washington, I'm David DeForest.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. U.S. President Barack Obama says the United States and the European Union must move forward on a free trade agreement.
Despite opposition to the idea, Mr. Obama spoke during a joint news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Germany.
"During presidential elections, it's always tough when we're in the heat of campaigns. People naturally are going to worry more about what's lost than what's gained with respect to trade agreements. But I am confident that we're gonna be able to get this done.”
Opponents have been critical of what they perceive as negotiations carried out away from public scrutiny, and they fear the pact will hand too much power to big multinationals at the expense of consumers and workers.
Exit polls show the candidate of Austria's anti-immigration Freedom Party winning the first round of presidential elections, gathering more than 35 percent of the vote. The exit polls show the party beating five rivals, including nominees of the governing coalition.
Preliminary vote tallies in Serbia show the coalition of pro-European (Union) parties led by Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic sweeping to a landslide victory in Sunday's general elections.
Monitors report Vucic's Progressive Party has nearly 53 percent of the vote and the Socialists who are in the ruling coalition have an additional 13 percent.
U.S. President Barack Obama says he will not consider sending U.S. ground troops into Syria. The president said there needs to be more than just a military effort to solve Syria's problems.
This is VOA news.
The United Nations Security Council has condemned North Korea for its submarine launched ballistic missile test Saturday. The North Korean government is calling a submarine launched test a great success.
But, a South Korean Foreign Ministry spokesman condemned the test. Officials from that country called it a failure.
Egyptian protesters who mounted anti-government demonstrations on April 15 to express their anger with a presidential decision to give two Red Sea islands to Saudi Arabia as gifts have vowed to stage mass sit-ins Monday to mark a patriotic holiday, Sinai Liberation Day.
A group of lawyers says Egypt authorities have arrested dozens of activists ahead of the planned protests.
In a televised address Sunday, President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi urged Egyptians to protect the state and its institutions from what he called the "forces of evil.”
A Dutch journalist was arrested by Turkish police early Sunday at her home in Turkey after she made a negative statement about President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Twitter.
Ebru Umar, a well-known columnist for the Dutch Metro newspaper, tweeted that police were at the front door of her home late Saturday night and they were taking her to a police station for questioning.
A Dutch Foreign Ministry spokesman confirmed that Umar had been detained but gave no details.
An electoral commission says 98 percent of voters in Sudan's Darfur region have voted against uniting the region's five separate states into one.
A Darfur election official said Saturday 3.2 million of Darfur's 3.5 million registered voters cast ballots in the election.
Papa Wemba, a musician known around the world as the king of Congolese rumba, died early Sunday after collapsing on stage in Ivory Coast. He was 66.
Papa Wemba had performed three songs at the Urban Musical Festival Anoumabo in Abidjan before collapsing in front of thousands of fans. Fellow performers rushed to his aid, but he died before reaching the hospital.
The cause of death was not immediately known.
Businessman Donald Trump, trying to lock up the U.S. Republican presidential nomination, says he continues to believe in his anti-immigrant proposals.
One of his key campaign aides, Paul Manafort, told party leaders last week Trump [was been] has been playing "a part" in the campaign and that he is "evolving" into a more traditional candidate.
But Trump assured a rally of supporters in Connecticut that he has no intention of abandoning a proposal to temporarily keep Muslims out of the country and to build a wall to block illegal immigrants from Mexico.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David Byrd reporting. U.S. President Barack Obama will head to Germany to drum up support for a trade pact.
Mr. Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel will discuss the global economy, terrorism, transatlantic security and many other issues during his two-day visit to Germany.
The two also hope to build support for the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, or TTIP. The free-trade pact is being negotiated by the U.S. and the European Union.
During a town home meeting with British young people Saturday, Mr. Obama said that each country has barriers that have to be overcome for trade deals to work.
"Getting trade deals done is tough, because each country has its own parochial interests and factions. And in order to get a trade deal done, each country has to give something up. So it's a time-consuming process.”
Mr. Obama is also expected to express support for a deal between the European Union and Turkey to manage the flow of migrants and refugees from Syria and other countries.
The leaders and their counterparts from Britain, France and Italy will also hold talks ahead of the NATO summit set for July in Warsaw.
Meanwhile, in Hanover Saturday, tens of thousands of protesters gathered to demonstrate against the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership.
Trade unionists, nationalists and greens groups say the deal will drive down wages, erode consumer protection and damage the environment.
Mr. Obama and other proponents of the pact say that lowering tariffs and harmonizing rules will give a boost to businesses at a time of world economic uncertainty.

Turkey's Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu says his country's efforts to deter Syrians from entering Greece by sea have drastically cut daily migrant voyages from 6,000 in November to as few as 130 this month.
Davutoğlu spoke Saturday from the Turkish city of Gaziantep near the Syrian border alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel and European Council President Donald Tusk.
Tusk described Turkey as "the best example for the whole world" of how refugees should be treated.
"Today Turkey is the best example for the whole world (for) how we should treat refugees. No one has a right to lecture Turkey (on) what it should do. I'm really proud that you are my partner and I'm absolutely sure that we will succeed.”
On Friday, Amnesty International urged the European delegation not to "close their eyes to the catalog of human rights abuses faced by refugees" in Turkey.
Amnesty's comments followed a recent European Parliament report that criticized Turkey's record on human rights and media freedom in 2015.
That report urged the country to improve its human rights record, and said Ankara's bid to join the EU will succeed or fail based on how it meets those demands.
In the race for the White House, front-runners Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton campaigned in Connecticut Saturday ahead of Tuesday's primary.
Trump told a rally that he is not toning it down one day after his chief adviser assured Republican officials the GOP front-runner will show more restraint.
"Get out and vote, get out and vote. And I wanna thank the people of Connecticut to be out here on a Saturday morning is incredible. I love you folks. Get out and vote. Make America great again. Thank you.”
Clinton spoke at a small round table event in New Haven, Connecticut, meeting with working families and local officials to discuss equal pay.
Democrat Bernie Sanders, meanwhile, held a rally in Baltimore, Maryland, where he told a cheering crowd that he and Secretary Clinton differ on foreign policy.
"I believe that force sometimes has to be used. But force should be the last response to our foreign policy, not the first.”
Connecticut, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island hold primaries on Tuesday. One hundred eighteen delegates are at stake for the Republicans. The Democrats have 383 delegates up for grabs.
And, mourners continued to gather outside the Paisley Park home of entertainer Prince, who died Thursday at age 57.

Ahmet Davutoğlu says he will not seek re-election as leader of the ruling party. Mr. Davutoğlu met late Wednesday with President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, but the two allegedly were unable to smooth over several disagreements. The prime minister has not been a strong supporter of some of Mr. Erdoğan's policies, including constitutional changes to make the largely ceremonial presidency into an all-powerful position. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says at least 28 civilians were killed Thursday in an airstrike on a refugee camp in northern Syria near the Turkish border. The group's director... -

Record Fires Destroy Parts of Canadian Province
Raging wildfires have forced record evacuations in Canada's northeastern province Alberta. About 90,000 people have had to leave their homes. Some of the nearly 50 fires are close to Canada's oil sands, the third largest oil reserves in the world. Zlatica Hoke reports the cause of the fire has not yet been determined.

Growing Asian-American Community Could Influence US Elections
The growing number of Asian-American voters in the United States doesn’t necessarily translate into political clout in U.S. elections. Many who are eligible to vote sit on the sidelines. One organization wants to remove some barriers it says are in the way of getting Asian-Americans to vote. VOA’s Kane Farabaugh reports.

VOA news for Friday, May 6th, 2016
Thanks to http://gandalf.ddo.jp/ for audio and text
From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Turkey's prime minister plans to leave office.
Ahmet Davutoğlu says he will not seek re-election as leader of the ruling party.
Mr. Davutoğlu met late Wednesday with President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, but the two allegedly were unable to smooth over several disagreements.
The prime minister has not been a strong supporter of some of Mr. Erdoğan's policies, including constitutional changes to make the largely ceremonial presidency into an all-powerful position.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says at least 28 civilians were killed Thursday in an airstrike on a refugee camp in northern Syria near the Turkish border. The group's director says he didn't know if the attacking planes were Syrian or Russian.
The bombing came just a day after the United States and Russia brokered a cease-fire for the city of Aleppo.
U.S. Defense Department spokesman Colonel Steven Warren says U.S. warships have stopped accompanying U.S. and British-flagged commercial vessels through the Strait of Hormuz.
Edward Yeranian reports Iran has threatened to close the waterway to U.S. and allied vessels.
The threat to close the Strait of Hormuz follows an announcement last week by Iran's naval commander, Admiral Habibollah Sayyari, that his country would hold maneuvers in the Persian Gulf in the near future.
The deputy head of Iran's Revolutionary Guard, General Hossein Salami, told state TV Wednesday that Iran would close the strait to U.S. and allied commercial vessels if it came under threat.

After largely self-funding his run for the U.S. Republican presidential nomination, businessman Donald Trump will begin raising money for his race against the likely Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton.
This is VOA news.
U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan, the country's top elected Republican, says he is "not ready" to support his party's presumptive presidential nominee, Donald Trump.
Trump later quipped that he was not ready to support Ryan's agenda.
Trump will not be getting the endorsements of the last men the party sent to the White House. An aide says George W. Bush does not plan to participate in or comment on this year's race. A spokesman for Mr. Bush's father, George H. W. Bush, said simply the elder former president is retired from politics.
Britons went to the polls Thursday to vote in local so-called Super Thursday.
Election counting is underway.
London could be getting its first Muslim mayor. Former government minister Sadiq Khan appears headed for an electoral victory.
A U.S. rights group says a prisoner held in China since the 1989 Tiananmen Square uprising may be released this October.
Miao Deshun was a 25-year-old factory worker from Hebei province at the time of the pro-democracy demonstrations and military crackdown.
The Dui Hua Foundation says he was the last known person involved in those events in Beijing still in jail.
The seventh congress of North's ruling Workers' Party is set to begin Friday, its first in nearly 40 years. The congress is likely to last several days. In the past, the event drew many delegates from around the world.
Leader Kim Jong Un is expected to make major policy announcements during the gathering although what he might announce remains unclear.
Former Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad warned Thursday the country faces bankruptcy because of an ongoing scandal with the state-owned 1MDB fund.
He said any defaults by the government-owned company would affect Malaysia's credit worthiness and prevent the government from borrowing in the market.
Rescue workers in Kenya's capital have pulled three more survivors from the ruins of an apartment building that collapsed nearly a week ago. That brings to four the number of people found alive Thursday in the rubble of the six-story complex.
The Kenyan Red Cross says "one male and two female" survivors were freed from the rubble late in the day.
Earlier, rescue crews pulled out a woman who was taken by ambulance to a hospital.
The death toll from the collapse stands at 36. Dozens more are still missing.
More Americans filed for unemployment benefits last week than was expected, although the underlying trend still points to declining jobless claims and a strengthening labor market.
The U.S. Labor Department reported Thursday initial claims for unemployment jumped during the week ending April 30.
From the VOA news center in Washington, I'm David DeForest.
That's the latest world news from VOA.

1969
Its 1969 in my head
I just wanna have no place to go
Livin thru the sound of the dead
I'm gonna get stoned look round at my soul
I'm hearin voices in the trees
And seein footsteps in the rain
I just wanna die before I loose my dol
I have been cryin in my sleep
Cause I dont kno where i've been
I just wanna live to see another day
Hey hey hey hey
When I get my buick six
I'll see my life drop in that whirlpool
If I get to see you again
You're the only one I know
Here we go
There I stand
I'm a seed
Of a man
Dare I go
Dare I stare
I'm a seed
