(MENAFN) The Spanish football governing body has taken strict action against Getafe following an incident of racial abuse directed towards a Sevilla player and head coach during a league match. The RFEF disciplinary committee announced on Wednesday that Getafe will face a three-match partial stadium closure and a fine of €27,000 (USD29,100) due to the racist slurs voiced by a group of fans against Sevilla's Argentine left-back Marcos Acuna and Spanish head coach Quique Sanchez Flores.
Sevilla emerged victorious with a 1-0 win over Getafe in the Spanish La Liga match on March 30. Reports indicate that some Getafe fans in the stadium directed racial epithets, including calling Acuna a "monkey," prompting referee Javier Iglesias Villanueva to pause the match in the 68th minute.
Following the match, Flores revealed to Spanish media that he was subjected to derogatory remarks from some Getafe fans, including being called a "gypsy." Flores, who has expressed pride in his Romani heritage, condemned the use of such language as "abhorrent."
The 59-year-old coach, known for his successful tenure with Atletico Madrid, has had three coaching stints with Getafe. In addition to the stadium closure and fine, the disciplinary committee has instructed Getafe to publicly denounce racist, xenophobic, and intolerant actions in football.
As a result of the sanctions, Getafe will undergo a partial stadium closure for their upcoming matches against Real Sociedad on April 21, Athletic Bilbao on May 5, and Atletico Madrid on May 15. Currently placed 11th in the top-tier LaLiga, Getafe will face consequences for the unacceptable behavior exhibited by some of their fans during the match against Sevilla.

Chinese ambassador: Jordan will be center of Syria, Iraq reconstruction
(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency) Amman, February 25 (Petra) -- China's Ambassador to Jordan Pan Weifang on Sunday said his country maintains strong relations with the Kingdom and seeks to strengthen and develop them and explore wider economic possibilities, especially since Jordan will be the center of reconstruction in Syria and Iraq.
In a lecture at the Jordan Media Institute titled: "Jordanian-Arab-Chinese Relations," Pan said that his country is financing a number of vital and important projects in the Kingdom, including a $2.2-billion shale oil project, with a contribution of $1.6 billion. Further, he noted, China supports Jordan's drive towards the construction of a peaceful nuclear reactor for the purpose of energy production.
He added that his country will also join some future projects such as the Red Sea–Dead Sea Water Conveyance, the Basra-Aqaba oil pipeline and a number of industrial projects.
Pan said China is a moderate country and seeks to further expand its relations with Jordan by providing humanitarian assistance to Syrian refugees in the Kingdom and exploring wider economic potential.
Speaking on the Palestinian issue, the ambassador said: "Beijing always stands up to the just causes of peoples and can play a bigger role in the peace process because of its good relations with the Palestinians and the Israelis, so China can be a good broker to reach a two-state solution." The ambassador and the attendance discussed a wide range of issues. He indicated that his country's support to North Korea is purely humanitarian, while noting that Beijing "supports international resolutions on Pyongyang and at the same time rejects the proliferation of nuclear weapons even though it has not signed the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, because the Chinese nuclear bomb is for self-defense, and China has repeatedly declared that it will be the last to use the bomb whatever happens."

(MENAFN) Lebanese musician Karl Mattar was in Berlin working on his third album, "Our House Is Very Beautiful At Night," under his project Interbellum when the Beirut port explosion took place on August 4, 2020. Before the blast, Mattar had already been exploring the theme of intergenerational trauma as a phantom, inspired by the writings of Nicolas Abraham and Maria Torok. The explosion influenced his album and informed its themes.
Mattar explained that the explosion was not the genesis of the album, but it shaped it. Some of the works by Lebanese artists, including himself, that were created before the blast have become almost prophetic. The previous album by Interbellum had a track titled "Some Ghosts," which fits the current situation in Lebanon.
According to Mattar, the explosion did not occur out of the blue, but rather emerged from previous events, like a symptom. The album explores the cycle of things always repeating and the idea that ghosts that have always been there are being unlocked. Mattar's interest in themes of memory, nostalgia, and personal baggage from his childhood led him to explore the concept that we have to learn to live with our respective ghosts.
He further added that personal trauma is a microcosm of societal trauma, reflecting the nuclear family and the state and society. He described it as a Russian doll thing. Through his album, Mattar aims to shed light on the intergenerational trauma that affects many people in Lebanon and encourage them to come to terms with it.

(MENAFN) Former US President Donald Trump has returned to Facebook after being banned for a year following the January 6 Capitol riots in Washington. He made the announcement on his reinstated page by simply writing "I'M BACK!"
Meta, Facebook's parent company, announced in January that they would reinstate the former president as they believed "the public should be allowed to hear from politicians." However, the post also clarified that Trump would face "heightened penalties for repeat offenses" as a way to "deter" such behavior.
Trump was banned from Facebook and Instagram, both owned by Meta, in 2021. The company's president for global affairs, Nick Clegg, wrote in 2022 that the ban was under "extreme and highly unusual circumstances." The official reason for the ban was that Trump had praised "people engaged in violence at the Capitol on January 6, 2021."
Similarly, Twitter permanently suspended Trump for "incitement of violence." This referred to Trump's tweets about the Capitol riots where he called the protesters "great American patriots." Trump had been fond of Twitter even before assuming office and in 2017, he had said that he would not have won the election without it.
It remains to be seen how Trump will use Facebook now that he has been reinstated. His return has already sparked controversy and criticism, with many questioning Meta's decision to allow him back on the platform. The heightened penalties for repeat offenses may act as a deterrent, but some argue that Trump's past behavior warrants a permanent ban from social media. The situation is likely to be closely monitored in the coming weeks and months, as politicians and the public alike weigh in on the issue.

(MENAFN- Gulf Times) An Israeli court on Monday extended the remand of an Islamic cleric accused of inciting violence in connection with last month's deadly tensions over a Jerusalem holy site, his lawyer said.
Raed Salah, arrested on August 15, had his remand extended until Thursday, Khaled Zabarka told AFP.
The 58-year-old Arab Israeli is accused of inciting violence and terrorism as well as support for an illegal organisation.
Prosecutors told the court on Monday that they intend to file charges against Salah, Zabarka said.
Salah and his supporters call the accusations "political intimidation" intended to silent dissent.
His group, the radical northern branch of the Islamic Movement in Israel, was outlawed in 2015 for incitement linked to the Haram al-Sharif mosque compound, known to Jews as the Temple Mount.
Police say the allegations against Salah include a sermon he gave after a July 14 attack that killed two policemen near Haram al-Sharif, which includes the revered Al-Aqsa mosque and the golden-topped Dome of the Rock.
Violence erupted in and around the site after three Arab Israelis shot dead the two policemen before being killed by security forces.
Israel responded to the July 14 deadly shootings by installing metal detectors at the entrance to the holy site, used as a staging point for the attack.
For nearly two weeks, worshippers refused to submit to the checks and staged mass prayers in surrounding streets.
Ensuing protests and clashes left seven Palestinians dead, while three Israelis were stabbed to death in a West Bank settlement by a Palestinian assailant.
The crisis abated when Israel removed the detectors.

(MENAFN) In a devastating turn of events, a school shooting near the Finnish capital Helsinki has left one student dead and two others injured. The incident unfolded on Tuesday morning at a lower secondary school in the city of Vantaa, just north of Helsinki. Local authorities were alerted to the situation shortly after 9am, prompting swift action to contain the chaos and apprehend the suspected perpetrator.
According to reports from law enforcement, all involved parties—including the victims and the suspected shooter—are just 12 years old. The unnamed suspect, a student at the school, was swiftly taken into custody in the capital, where officers also seized a handgun believed to be the weapon used in the shooting. Initial confusion over the ages of the victims, initially reported as 13, was later clarified, emphasizing the youthfulness of those involved in this tragic event.
As the investigation unfolds, the community grapples with the shock and sorrow of such a senseless act of violence. Students and teachers at the affected school were instructed by law enforcement to seek shelter and await further instructions as the situation unfolded. The gravity of the situation has prompted a collective sense of mourning and concern for the safety and well-being of all students in Finland.
In the wake of this tragedy, questions arise about the factors contributing to such violence among young people and what measures can be taken to prevent future incidents. As authorities continue their investigation and support services are mobilized for the affected families and the broader community, the nation mourns the loss of one young life and prays for the swift recovery of the injured.
Further updates on the situation are anticipated as authorities work to piece together the events leading up to the shooting and provide clarity on the circumstances surrounding this heartbreaking incident. Finland, known for its peaceful and safe reputation, now faces a sobering reminder of the challenges posed by violence even within the confines of educational institutions.

(MENAFN- The Peninsula) QNA
Doha: President of the National Cyber Security Agency (NCSA) Abdulrahman bin Ali Al Farahid Al Malki has said the agency continues efforts to offer the optimum cyber security systems nationwide during the forthcoming FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.
During a meeting with representatives of local media outlets, Al Maliki said the agency's cadres and team works are working relentlessly and round clock to guarantee the strengthening of cyber security across the country depending on the best world-class practices.
Speaking about his agency's roles during the competition, which is set to kick off in November, Al Maliki explained that there was a plan to put a number of procedures in force, including activating plans linked with sporting events in order to respond to incidents and the effective handling of possible cyber threats and hackings as well as activating operational capabilities including watching, finding out about cyber-attacks and the effective and immediate response to cyber incidents.
He added that part of the agency's preparations for the competition were the testing of the systems through simulating the hacking of programmes, applications and networks of the institutions operating during the tournament and the testing of these institutions' abilities to face hacking attempts through periodic scanning and testing the stadiums' networks as well as evaluating potential and dangers of cyber security for more than 100 vital facilities across the country.
The agency checks and evaluates all technical designs, programmes and apps linked with the championship before its kick-off to ascertain all cyber security preconditions are met, Al Maliki said, reiterating the agency was safeguarding all facilities that provide indirect services for the championship as well as providing cyber security-related technical consultations.
The agency's representatives will be present at all championship-related facilities to immediately and directly respond, monitor and verify any electronic attacks against computers and networks, he added, noting that the agency had previous live experiences in a variety of tournaments including the 2021 FIFA Arab Cup, which helped the agency boost strategies and capabilities to confront any hacking attempts against sporting facilities.
Commenting on the agency's approaches to raise awareness, Al Maliki highlighted the relentless efforts exerted to raise the awareness of governmental, non-governmental organisations as well as community members to better protect personal networks and data as partners in the promotion of cyber security across the country.
Al Maliki said that the agency has a large number of programmes and training courses aimed at boosting capabilities of individuals and institutions in securing data, in addition to frequently launched media campaigns on the social media and newspapers regarding awareness of cybersecurity.
The NCSA President also said that the agency works on promoting the individuals' culture of self-protection against getting hacked. He called on individuals to obtain information from official and trusted organisations and wean themselves from rumours and misleading information.
Recently, the NCSA established partnerships with a number of state agencies. It has also provided training to 25,000 employees in different sectors since March 2021, with plans to increase this number in the future to better preserve and protect information for the sake of achieving a secure cyber environment.

(MENAFN- Jordan Times)
AMMAN — Jordan is keen to maintain the calm in southern Syria, which offers 'a solid ground' for future cooperation between the countries, Head of the Lower House Foreign Affairs Committee MP Khaldoun Hina said on Tuesday.
During a meeting with Russian Ambassador Gleb Desyatnikov, Hinareferred to the electricity and gas supply lines to Lebanon, which run through Syrian territory. He called it the beginning of the restoration of security and stability in Syria, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.
He stressed Russia's“key role”to eradicate terrorist groups from southern Syria, calling for a crackdown on smugglers and to not allow any non-Syrian parties to stay close to the Jordanian border.
Hina said that any breakdown on the Jordanian-Syrian border could heat up the situation and result in more chaos that will affect all parties, and this might lead to the return of terrorist organisations.
Members of the committee highlighted the Russia's key role in the Middle East, and also stressed the need to find a solution to the Palestinian cause.
Desyatnikov said that Moscow recognises the Hashemite custodianship over Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem, and also supports finding a solution to the Palestinian cause under international legitimacy resolutions.

(MENAFN- The Peninsula) AFP
TEHRAN: Tehran on Monday summoned a Ukrainian diplomat to protest 'biased' remarks by a presidential aide in Kyiv over a recent drone strike in Iran, the Islamic republic's foreign ministry said.
Mykhailo Podoliak, an advisor to Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky, linked in a tweet on Sunday Iran's support for Russia's invasion of his country with the night-time strike on a military site.
'Explosive night in Iran -- drone and missile production, oil refineries,' he said. 'War logic... bills the authors and accomplices strictly'.
'Ukraine did warn you,' Podoliak added. Read Also

Iran's foreign ministry said Ukraine's charge d'affaires in Tehran had been summoned to provide 'an official and immediate explanation from the Ukrainian government'.
It called Podoliak's remarks 'strange and biased', adding in a statement it hoped 'such positions will not be repeated'.
Iranian authorities reported an 'unsuccessful' drone attack late Saturday night that targeted a defence ministry 'workshop complex' in the central Isfahan province, home to the Natanz nuclear enrichment facility.
An anti-aircraft system destroyed one drone and two others exploded, the defence ministry said, adding that there were no casualties and only minor damage to the site.
Dramatic video footage widely shared on social media and published by Iranian state media showed a fireball lighting up the night sky, with people outside seen running and emergency service vehicles speeding towards the site.
Ukraine and its Western allies have accused Iran of supplying military drones to Russia for its war in Ukraine, a claim that is denied by Tehran.

Yemen- Aden oil refinery fire still raging
(MENAFN- Gulf Times) A fire triggered by shelling at an oil refinery in Yemen's restive port city of Aden risked getting out of control yesterday as firefighters struggled to extinguish the blaze.
"The oil terminal has been in flames since Saturday. The firefighters have not managed to put out the blaze because there is a severe shortage in the substances needed to extinguish it," an official at the Aden refinery said.
"There are fears that the fire will spread to other fuel tanks in the area," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
The fire started on Saturday when a shell allegedly fired by the Iran-backed Houthi rebels hit a fuel tank at the oil facility, which is part of the Red Sea city's port.
There was no comment from the Houthis.
Aden, Yemen's second biggest city, has been at the centre of a battle between the Houthis and local fighters loyal to President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
A Saudi-led air campaign has repeatedly struck the mostly Shia rebels in Aden.
The Saudi interior ministry said a Saudi soldier was killed in a rocket attack on the kingdom's border with Yemen.
The rocket fire in the southern city of Jazan killed Faisal Mohamed Belqasem Maqaadi and wounded another soldier, an interior ministry spokesman said in a statement carried by the official SPA news agency late Saturday.
It did not specify the source of the fire but cross-border shelling by Yemeni rebels has become common since Riyadh launched the air campaign in late March.

(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency) Beirut, Jan. 11 (Petra)- A conference dubbed " Situation of Arab Media Today" kicked off its deliberations in the Lebanese capital, Beirut, with participation of Jordan News Agency Director General, Faisal Shboul, and brings together regional and global media leaders.
In a speech he delivered at the gathering, Shboul said it has become adamant to sequester media outlets from social media platforms legislatively, and media workers are requested to forge a legislation to safeguard this sector to shun grave infringements on journalism.
He stressed the dire need to adhere to media-specific regulations, specifications, and liabilities, a step aimed to ensure media contents are provided to the public appropriately and to maintain a proper level of accountability.
He highlighted gripes affecting this key sector, primarily the financial hardships of its cadre, lack of staff's credentials, and vulnerability to litigation on ungrounded pretexts in cases of libel, slander, and incitement of extremism.
In this context, relevant legislature is crucial to set the needed accountability demarcation, Shboul added, and urged higher educational institutions in the Arab world to underscore media is everyone's right for information safeguarded by laws across the world, whereas social platforms are an inter-individual environment.
" Journalism woes emanate from unevenly aggressive competitiveness, concomitant with the tight advertising industry led by U.S.-owned giants amassing billions and leave local media outlets vying for almost nothing in the ads market," he told the participants.

(MENAFN) As the Israel-Gaza conflict continues, S&P Global warns of potential repercussions for Israel's gas supplies to Egypt and Jordan, posing a risk of long-term shortages for these North African nations amid an already constrained global supply. In a worst-case scenario, should the conflict escalate beyond Gaza's borders and cause damage to export pipeline infrastructure, Israel's gas exports could cease entirely, according to S&P's recent report.
Analysts at S&P Global note that an interruption in Israel's gas exports would be challenging to address, as most gas production in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries is already committed under existing contracts. This scenario would leave Egypt vulnerable to a prolonged shortage at a time when global energy supply is already under strain.
The Israel-Gaza conflict, which has evolved into a significant humanitarian crisis, adds a layer of uncertainty to the global economy. A potential flare-up in the conflict could disrupt shipping operations through the vital Strait of Hormuz, limiting energy supplies from the region and further impeding economic growth already impacted by persistent inflation and high borrowing costs.
The disruption of Israeli gas supplies would compound economic challenges for Egypt and Jordan, both of which are grappling with a slowdown in their crucial tourism sectors—a key source of foreign exchange. An escalation of the conflict, which began on October 7, could have far-reaching consequences for the broader Middle East and North Africa (MENA) economies, including Israel.
This article delves into the intricacies of the potential impact of an escalation in the Israel-Gaza conflict on regional energy dynamics, economic stability, and the broader geopolitical landscape. As tensions persist, the article explores the multifaceted challenges and risks associated with the conflict's potential spillover effects on neighboring nations and the MENA region as a whole.

Russia to increase wheat export duty once more in coming week
(MENAFN) The Ministry of Agriculture stated that the export duty on Russia’s wheat will be raised from USD61.3 to USD67 per ton on October 27. Duties on corn will also be increased to USD49.7 per ton.
At the same time, export duties for barley will be reduced from USD45.9 reaching USD42.6 per ton.
The export duty rate is measured at an indicative price of USD295.8 per ton for wheat, USD245.9 for barley, and USD256 for corn. The fresh duty rates will be in effect till November 2.

Wheat is priced at $200 per ton, while corn and barley are priced at $185 per ton. The Ministry of Agriculture calculates the amount of duty for a week based on this information.

(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Since February 24, 2022, the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine has documented 621 cases of enforced disappearance and unlawful detention of civilians by the Russian armed forces.
This was stated by Head of the Mission Matilda Bogner at the presentation of two new reports – on the treatment of prisoners of war and the overall human rights situation in Ukraine for the six months up to January 31, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
"In the occupied territories of Ukraine, we documented arbitrary executions and attacks on individual civilians by the armed forces of the Russian Federation, as well as widespread unlawful detentions and enforced disappearances. Since February 24, 2022, we have documented 621 cases of enforced disappearance and unlawful detention of civilians by the Russian armed forces," Bogner said.
She added that the Mission had interviews with 127 civilians who were detained and then released. Among them, 90% reported that representatives of the armed forces of the Russian Federation and the Russian security services tortured them and treated them cruelly during detention.
"In some cases, this included sexual violence," the Head of the Mission noted.
According to Bogner, during this period, the Mission also recorded 91 cases of enforced disappearance and unlawful detention committed by Ukrainian structures.

(MENAFN- Khaama Press) The Department of Defense (Pentagon) disclosed its latest budget request for Afghanistan which includes the funding request to support the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces, specifically the Afghan Special Mission Wing (SMW).
The budget request for Afghanistan, titled Justification for FY 2021 Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) Afghanistan Security Forces Fund, confirms the procurement of 10 CH-47 Chinook helicopters for the Afghan Special Forces, Special Mission Wing (WMW).
"The SMW is critical for air assault operations, as the SMW is the only unit that operates helicopters at night enabling the ANASOC and the GCPSU to operate during periods of darkness," the budget request reads. "This request funds procurement of CH-47 helicopters to transition the SMW from Russian-made Mi-17s helicopters to US-made, interoperable helicopters, solidifying the SMW's role as a key counterterrorism partner force."
It also added "The equipment and transportation request includes equipment that is essential for the continued development and maturation of the ASSF. The request procures 10 CH-47 rotary wing aircraft as well as supporting parts, supplies, and equipment."
According to Pentagon the CH-47 provides the ASSF the ability to continue Counterterrorism Operations as the SMW transitions away from Russian manufactured rotary wing aircraft. "As the SMW transitions away from Russian manufactured rotary wing aircraft, the procurement of CH-47 aircraft fills a medium/heavy-lift capability gap."
"The CH-47 medium/heavy lift aircraft provides an interoperable capability that enables helicopter assaults of Afghan special forces into remote areas, and is the most cost effective and sustainable solution to solve the capability gap," the budget request concludes, adding that this procurement enables DoD to end funding of Afghanistan's Russian-made Mi-17 helicopters once the CH-47s are integrated into the fleet.
Pentagon also added "The request will modernize the PC-12 fleet to address critical aviation capability gaps in aerial ISR and communications."
