  2. Discovering that a video game that interests us will not be on our favorite platform is always a stick. A situation to which players accustomed to Apple devices are used. Mac computers have reached a point where they may even be inadvisable if we are interested in video games. However, from the company they want to change the rules and have started with a spectacular signing. Hideo Kojima inaugurates a new era of 'gaming' at Apple Hideo Kojima has appeared at WWDC 2023, a conference in which Apple is presenting the next news of the brand. In this presentation, the creator of Metal Gear announced the arrival of Death Stranding: Director's Cut to Mac computers that meet the requirements this year 2023. "I have been a die-hard Apple fan since I got my first Mac back in 1994. It has It's been my dream to see my team's work come to life on these computers. Now, we're entering a new era of gaming on Mac. So I'm very happy to announce that Death Stranding: Director's Cut is coming to Mac later this year. "Hideo Kojima said at the conference. The Japanese creative praised the technical capabilities of the equipment designed by Apple and hoped "that game creators around the world will take advantage of this power to develop revolutionary experiences." Something of which he himself will be an example. In addition to the imminent release of the Death Stranding review, he assures that he is already working with Apple to bring his future titles to the brand's platforms. https://www.3djuegos.com/juegos/death-stranding-directors-cut/noticias/he-sido-fan-a-muerte-apple-1994-nadie-esperaba-kojima-sera-gran-capitan-nueva-era-gaming-mac
  3. The James Webb Space Telescope continues to study the universe. Scientists have recently used it to detect water vapor on a giant planet, relatively close to us. this is what we know The study once again confirmed the excellent resolution of the instruments on board the space laboratory. The exoplanet where the water was discovered is called WASP-18 b. It is 400 light years away. It was discovered in 2008 using several telescopes, including Hubble. WASP-18 b is very close to its star and goes around it in 24 hours. The distance between the planet and the luminary is only 3.1 million km. For comparison, Mercury is 63 million km and Earth is 150 million km from the Sun. Scientists from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) state that due to the high temperature (2700 degrees Celsius), water molecules break apart. However, a small amount of water is still preserved. It is also worth noting that WASP-18b is constantly turned towards the star by one of its sides. Because of this, the temperature on the opposite side is 1,100 degrees Celsius lower. Scientists will now study the reasons for this drastic difference, since there must be some factor that prevents the heat from spreading evenly.

  5. It has not been the expected debut. Sebastien Loeb had many hopes for his return to the World Rallycross Championship behind the wheel of the electric Delta, but a puncture prevented him from improving on the sixth final position at the event held in Montalegre (Portugal). The victory has been for the champion, Johan Kristoffersson, who is on his way to being crowned for the sixth time. All eyes were on the brand new Loeb Delta, which also surprised by appearing decorated with the same colors that made this model mythical in rallies. The French star evolved normally throughout the different sleeves, until he reached the final hungry for victory. But he suffered a puncture that dropped him to sixth place. "Many lessons to be learned from this round in Portugal to get closer to the podium, but the whole team can be proud of this result", assured the Frenchman. "I'm looking forward to arriving in Norway in fifteen days." Kevin Hansen and Niclas Gronholm, the son of the former two-time world rally champion and Loeb's great rival, accompanied Kristoffersson on the podium at the Portuguese event.

  6. There are certain ideas that take root in society. No matter how many times science disproves them, they continue to permeate for decades. I remember when I went to school and the teacher explained to us that human beings are rational and animals act on instinct. Of this, 20 years ago and since then, numerous evidences of animals that learn from the environment and act flexibly have been provided. But today, dualistic discourses that drink from this simplistic idea continue to be given, even within the academic world. They reduce animals to mere biological machines, whose behavior is determined solely by genes. According to this vision, cooperation occurs only between related animals and, if an individual falls ill, it is abandoned by the rest of the group, because that is how natural selection works. In contrast, human beings are rational beings, aware of our actions. We share values that make us care for injured individuals, even if we have no relationship with them. These types of messages, easy to understand, make us feel special and spread like a virus. Complex answers are less po[CENSORED]r but often more accurate. With the term "animal" we are referring to more than a million different species. Many of them, like sea sponges or mussels, are probably just biological machines. And it is true that large numbers of species lack the cognitive complexity and empathy to perform certain altruistic actions. But it has been shown that humans are not the only ones on the planet who help and care for those most in need. Especially chimpanzees, elephants and cetaceans stand out for this behavior. https://elpais.com/ciencia/2023-06-05/algunos-animales-tambien-cuidan-de-los-mas-necesitados-aunque-no-sean-parientes.html

  8. A suspension bridge under construction in India's poorest state has collapsed for the second time in 14 months, the ANI news agency reported. The bridge was being built over the Ganges river in the Bhagalpur district of the eastern state of Bihar. Construction was scheduled to be completed in 2019 but faced multiple delays, including the previous collapse on April 30 last year due to strong winds and rain. “There was quite a stir here, it looked like there was an explosion. Later we found out that the bridge had collapsed,” Rakesh Kumar, a local resident, told ANI. Eight men were on the bridge at the time of its collapse on Sunday, and a guard was reported missing, according to ANI. Images from ANI showed a section of the bridge partially submerged in water, with only a few pillars and connected cables sticking out to indicate where that part of the structure previously stood. “We have conducted an investigation and I have reported the findings to the head of the district administration,” Amit Raj, deputy head of the District Administration, told ANI. Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, speaking to reporters on Monday, also vowed "strict action." “It is not being built correctly, that is why it is collapsing. It should have been stronger," he said. In October last year, a colonial-era suspension bridge collapsed in the city of Morbi in the western state of Gujarat, throwing hundreds of people into the Machchhu River and causing 135 deaths. It had been reopened just days before after months of repairs. The bridge collapse comes as India is still dealing with last Friday's train crash that killed at least 275 people. About 1,200 people were injured when a passenger train collided with a stopped freight train, jumped the tracks and hit another passing passenger train near the Balasore district. More than 900 people had been discharged from hospital while 260 were still receiving treatment, with one patient in critical condition, the Odisha state government said. State-owned Indian Railways, which says it carries more than 13 million people a day, has been working to improve its patchy safety record, blamed on aging infrastructure, and is conducting an initial investigation to determine the cause of the crash. accident. The Railway Board of India, the top executive body, has recommended that the case be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is facing an election next year, visited the scene on Saturday to speak with rescue teams, inspect the wreckage and meet some of the injured. "The guilty will be severely punished," Modi declared. https://www.infobae.com/america/mundo/2023/06/05/video-por-segunda-vez-en-14-meses-se-derrumbo-un-puente-colgante-en-india/

  10. Today is Sunday, but the offers do not rest and neither do our desire to give it visibility. It is always good to remember certain video games that came out several years ago, but that brought a great deal of fun to many players. In this case we are talking about a work in which you felt very powerful because all the technology was at your fingertips. Buy Watch Dogs 2 for 9 euros on Steam The most veterans already know what title we are talking about and in this case it is Watch Dogs 2, which equals its historical minimum price and can be purchased on Steam for only 8.99 euros. This offer ends on June 8, so you still have several days to think about your purchase. For many players it is the best installment in the Watch Dogs saga because it offered many changes and improvements compared to the first installment. Hacking as a way of life in Watch Dogs 2 Watch Dogs 2 is an open world video game that offers us action, adventure, and infiltration throughout its 20 hours. This time you leave Aiden Pierce aside and put yourself in the shoes of Marcus, a character much more integrated with hacker culture. The protagonist ends up joining DedSec, a group of very po[CENSORED]r hackers who have a very ambitious goal: to end ctOS 2.0 to bring freedom to the city. This installment improved Watch Dogs in multiple sections, and one of the aspects that the community liked the most were the gadgets and accessories, which allowed full interaction with the stage. This had an advantage: approaching the missions as you wanted. Being in a very technological environment you had the opportunity to create your own style or alternate it depending on the type of mission. In this way, the secondary activities did not become repetitive and you did not notice that feeling of monotony. In addition to hacking, Marcus was also great at parkour, as it allowed access to certain places by climbing. It's not Assassin's Creed in this sense, but it's a plus point for Watch Dogs 2. What didn't convince or improve was the driving, which continued to feel sloppy and bumpy. In the end, what remains is that all the virtues stand out over the few negatives. In case you are one of the players who enjoys collecting the titles in physical format, there is good news since on Amazon you can buy it for 20 euros for PS4. Likewise, you can also get it on Amazon if you have an Xbox One. It is also worth remembering that it is available to play at no additional cost on PS Plus Extra. In the writing of 3DJuegos we were very surprised with the delivery of Ubisoft. This is how we define it in the Watch Dogs 2 analysis: "It offers endless content to spend many hours entertained, but it also has that unique character in everything it addresses. A very polished proposal, noticeably rounder than its predecessor and, ultimately, Totally recommended." Last but not least, we must also talk about Watch Dogs Legion, an installment that failed to offer the best version of this franchise. However, and regardless of the final result, if you have enjoyed the two previous installments, it is more than possible that it is an entertaining video game and that you will enjoy it given the new features that they included. https://www.3djuegos.com/juegos/watch-dogs-2/noticias/este-juego-esta-su-minimo-historico-nos-brinda-mundo-abierto-accion-muy-divertido-donde-tecnologia-llega-a-otro-nivel-watch-dogs-2
  11. Capcom has released a new poll asking players which Resident Evil game they'd like to see remade next. The surveys are carried out on various channels and social networks of the publisher. this is what we know In recent years, Capcom has attracted the attention of fans and critics with remakes of games such as Resident Evil 2, 3, and 4. All of these remakes were very well received by critics. All of these remakes were very well received by gamers, leading many to call for Capcom to remake other parts of the series, including numerous spin-offs. Despite the fact that the remakes were generally faithful to the originals, some fans raised concerns after the release of the Resident Evil 3 remake, as the new version of the game featured changes to some content. Resident Evil 4 Remake has largely retained the authentic spirit of the original, although some simplifications have been made and some mechanics, such as quick events, have been removed. The Resident Evil series has been one of Capcom's biggest hits of late, with the company reporting that it had achieved its highest number of games ever sold in its latest financial reports, indicating strong demand for the franchise. and confidence in their future.

  13. Sebastián Montoya, driver of the Escudería Telmex Claro, lived a black and white weekend on the 4,657 km Barcelona track, during round five of the Formula 3 season. Montoya, also a junior rider for Red Bull, from the Hitech team, added six points by rescuing a seventh place in the main race, which allows him to rank 12th in the general classification, with 23 units. However, in the sprint he was penalized as while fighting with the Estonian Paul Aron, his former Prema Racing teammate, on lap 15, he went off the track at turn 1 and did not stay to the left before rejoining the race. turn 3, dropping from P22 to P26 in the final results.

  14. A mysterious whale, once suspected of being a Russian "spy", has been sighted again in recent days. Known locally as the Hvaldimir, the mammal was first seen swimming near Norway in 2019. It has now been spotted in Swedish waters. He still has a harness that was allegedly fitted to him in Russia. After spending years slowly moving south from the northern tip of Norway, the whale has accelerated its movements out of Norwegian waters in recent months, according to OneWhale, an organization that monitors its movement. The reason behind his sudden trip south was unclear, but there are a couple of possibilities. The new sighting A OneWhale marine biologist, Sebastian Strand, noted that there could be a number of reasons for the recent change in the whale's movements. "We don't know why it has accelerated so much at this point," especially as it is moving "very rapidly out of its natural environment," Strand told AFP. Strand considers that there may be two possible explanations for his change in behaviour. One of them is the high levels of hormones, which could be "driving her to find a partner." Another could be related to "loneliness", he added: "Belugas are a very social species, it could be that it is looking for other belugas." These mammals tend to live in the icy waters of the Arctic, around Greenland, Russia, Alaska, and northern Norway, with some migrating during the summer. Is he a spy? The beluga is domesticated and first approached Norwegian ships near Ingoya Island four years ago. The island is 415 km from Murmansk, where the Russian Northern Fleet is based. She was discovered wearing a harness equipped with a GoPro camera mount and an inscription that read "Team St. Petersburg." The find prompted an investigation by Norwegian intelligence services, which told the BBC that it was likely she had been trained by the Russian military. Since then, the whale has come to be known locally as Hvaldimir, a pun between the Norwegian term for whale, hval, and the name of Russian President Vladimir Putin. In Moscow they have never officially responded to the claim that Hvaldimir was trained by the Russian army. Previously, Russia has denied the existence of any program that seeks to train marine mammals as spies. "If we were using this animal to spy, do you really think we would put a phone on it with the message 'Please call this number?'" a Russian reserve colonel, Viktor Baranets, quipped in 2019.

  15. After weeks of political confrontation, President Joe Biden signed into law on Saturday that eliminated the risk of US debt default. This week Congress passed the "Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023," which suspends the ceiling on US public debt until January 2025 and also sets certain budget targets. Without this legislation, approved on Thursday by the Senate, with a Democratic majority, and on Wednesday by the House of Representatives, with a Republican majority, the world's largest economy ran the risk of not being able to meet its debt commitments from Monday. "Nothing would have been more irresponsible or more catastrophic," the president said in his speech on Friday. “Finding a consensus across partisan differences is difficult. Unity is difficult, but we must never stop trying," he added, repeating the message of reconciliation that marked the start of his term, and is now the slogan of his campaign for 2024. https://www.elespectador.com/mundo/america/biden-firma-la-ley-de-responsabilidad-fiscal-y-evita-el-incumpliento-de-la-deuda-noticias-hoy/
  16. At least 288 people were killed and more than 850 injured in a collision between three trains in eastern India, authorities said Saturday, in the country's worst rail disaster in more than 20 years. The rescue operations ceased at the last minute, after having inspected all the wagons in search of survivors of the tragedy, which occurred on Friday night in the state of Odisha. "All the bodies and the injured passengers were evacuated from the accident site," a person in charge of the emergency coordination room in Balasore, near the place where the drama occurred, told AFP. Odisha fire chief Sudhanshu Sarangi said the death toll was 288 but could rise to 380. For his part, a senior government official in the state of Odisha, Pradeep Jena, confirmed that "some 850 injured were sent to hospitals" after the event, which occurred about 200 kilometers from the state capital, Bhubaneswar. AFP reporters observed smashed train compartments, with twisted pieces of metal stained with blood. Some carriages were completely flipped over and rescue teams searched for survivors trapped in the wreckage of the vehicles, while dozens of bodies lay next to the tracks covered by white sheets. On Saturday night there was still confusion about the sequence of events that led to the tragedy, but some reports, citing railway officials, pointed to a traffic error, which diverted the passenger Coromandal Express heading to a side track onto a side track. high speed heading south from Calcutta towards Chennai. There the passenger convoy crashed into a parked freight train. Overturned carriages of both trains caused the derailment of another passenger express heading north from Bengaluru to Calcutta minutes later. “I want to forget the scenes” Hiranmay Rath, a student who lives near the railway tracks, ran out to help. Within hours, he claimed to have seen more "death and suffering" than he could imagine. “Imagine looking at – or pulling out – a crushed body of a person, a dismembered arm or leg,” he said. Anubhav Das, a 27-year-old researcher, recounted seeing "scenes full of blood, mangled bodies and a man with a severed arm being desperately helped by his injured son," he said. “I lost count of the corpses before leaving the place. Now I feel almost guilty," he said. One survivor, Arjun Das, told local television that "people were screaming for help." “There were wounded lying everywhere, inside the wagons and on the tracks. I want to forget the scenes,” he added. The Indian prime minister, Narendra Modi, visited the place of the catastrophe this Saturday and several wounded in the hospital. "No one responsible" for the accident will go unpunished, promised the president. "It's a sad moment," he told Doordarshan public broadcaster. "I pray that we get out of this sad moment as quickly as possible," he said. The authorities indicated that all hospitals between the accident site and Bhubaneswar, some 200 km away, had received casualties. Some 200 ambulances, and even buses, were mobilized to transport them. The Minister of Railway Transport, Ashwini Vaishnaw, announced that the army was also mobilized to assist in the operations. Pope Francis declared himself "deeply saddened" this Saturday and conveyed his condolences and prayers after the accident. Despite this incident, rail safety had improved significantly in the country in recent years thanks to massive investments and technological upgrades. The deadliest rail accident in the country dates back to June 6, 1981 in the state of Bihar (east), where seven train carriages plunged from a bridge into a river, causing between 800 and 1,000 deaths. In this century, India has had 13 train accidents with more than 50 victims, three of them the result of attacks. https://www.elespectador.com/mundo/mas-paises/testimonios-hablan-del-horror-del-accidente-de-tren-en-india-quiero-olvidarlo-noticias-hoy/

  18. He came to League of Legends ten years ago and since then he has become the most important champion in the video game. She was the first character to have her own music video, she became the great protagonist of Arcane and Riot Games has used her on multiple occasions as the main image of its brand. Also, although in another order of importance, he is the only LoL hero to appear in Just Dance 2023. Jinx has changed the history of the MOBA and it is all the fault of a drawing that obsessed one of the developers when he had just entered the game. company. A drawing on the wall and two newcomers to Riot Games Artists have that thing where, as if the work wasn't enough, they still dedicate time to their ideas when the workday is over. The people behind League of Legends knew this, which is why there was a place in the company for everyone to share their creations. Back at Riot Games, there was a bulletin board where anyone could post their sketches of future champions. It was always full of art or skill kit ideas. The board was a source of inspiration for champion designers, even if most of the ideas have never even been developed", they explained. On this small board, however, a sketch of what was then called "Psycho Arsenal" was published. That's where Katie De Sousa put it. The artist ended up becoming one of the most valued professionals at Riot Games, although at that time she had just arrived at the company. The drawing was posted on the developer's bulletin board for months until a small group of workers decided to turn that drawing with potential into a champion that could reach League of Legends. The main person responsible for this adventure was August Browning, who had also just joined his job at Riot Games. He arrived in June 2012 and this is what the company's chronicles tell about his first six months of work: "While by day he worked on creating Vi, Jinx's archenemy, at night he joined Katie and others developers to bring Psycho Arsenal to life." With the ambition of someone who has just arrived and wants to conquer the world, he managed to bring two new characters forward in his first twelve months as a video game developer. Jinx's main problem when she was still a cartoon named Psycho Arsenal was related to her generic appearance. It was then that the changes began and it took the form that finally made it to the video game. A joint effort in which the entire team collaborated and which also gave rise to playable changes. "We were putting weapons to him during his development while we thought about what his gameplay was going to be," explained Katie de Sousa. Initially it was a kind of Udyr in the marksman position with a weapon associated with each ability. The idea was partially kept, although Jinx received it through different abilities and not just a basic attack modifier. Also, his passive was added at the last moment to reinforce his maniacal personality. "If Jinx encountered a stranger in an alley she would not automatically stab him. However, if she was walking down an alley and a stranger passed near a stack of fireworks, she would certainly set them off even if that stranger was burned alive. Fireworks are too much fun for her", concluded from Riot Games. The consequences of Jinx's creation are largely known. However, its creation could be related to the cancellation of a champion. Between the release of Vi and Jinx, Riot August was going to work on a character called "Yordle in a Tank" that never got a final name. However, it ended up being discarded. "It was very bad, playing it was horrible and I don't know... it just wasn't good. His narrative and his art were great, but I wasn't able to do it well," he explained to me a while ago. Perhaps if there weren't another project in hand, the idea could have been worked on more until it came to life. However, no one at Riot Games is sorry. August Browning himself sometimes jokes that his career peaked ten years ago when he created Jinx while still a newcomer to the video game industry. He's still working on League of Legends, now as head of the champion creation team. Katie De Sousa left the company and participated in the development of Dauntless. Currently, she is the creative director of a farm management video game called Fae Farm that will be released later this year for Nintendo Switch. https://www.3djuegos.com/juegos/league-of-legends/noticias/dia-trabajaba-campeon-noche-otro-obsesion-desarrollador-league-of-legends-cambio-historia-riot-games-hace-diez-anos
  19. Colonel Tucker Hamilton of the US Air Force 96th Test Squadron told the Air and Space Capabilities Summit how a drone attacked a human operator during a drill. It turned out that the military "got it wrong." this is what we know The Royal Aeronautical Society, organizer of the summit, has sent a statement to this effect. The letter states that Tucker Hamilton "got it wrong" during the presentation and that the simulation did not actually take place. The colonel expressed a hypothetical possibility of development based on plausible scenarios. Incidentally, Ann Stefanek, a spokeswoman for the US Air Force office at the Department of Defense, had also previously said that the service had not carried out any experiments with AI-powered drones. Tucker Hamilton said the US Air Force doesn't need simulations to understand that such situations can occur. Although this is just a hypothetical example, it illustrates the real issues surrounding artificial intelligence capabilities.

  21. Juan Pablo Montoya and his son Sebastián lived a weekend of mixed sensations for the Monaco Grand Prix in Formula 3. For the youngest of the Montoyas, last Sunday was the opportunity to run his first Monaco GP in the penultimate step to F1. And although his performance seemed to portend a dream result, luck was unfortunately not on his side. At the end of the day, Sebastián Montoya was disqualified from the main race because the organization found that his car had a left tire on the opposite side, after his pit stop. This, after a contact with the Brazilian Caio Jotta Collet took him out of the race when he tried to overtake him to fight for the 'top-5'. Precisely about that crash that led the young driver of the Telmex-Claro Team to exclaim furiously "What an idiot!", Juan Pablo Montoya referred to in the last few hours. His analysis of what happened: one more proof that they are practically two peas in a pod. In a chat with 'Sky Sports', Juan Pablo Montoya analyzed what happened in Formula 1. The experienced driver spoke of the predominance of Red Bull in this new era and the possibilities of Fernando Alonso with Aston Martin. Also, in the middle of the dialogue, he had time to analyze what happened with his son in F3. After talking about what happened with Lance Stroll in F1, who after having a bad classification decided to take a risk in the main race and ended up being left out, a parallel arose with what Sebastián experienced. Juan Pablo, as usual, was accurate: "With such a fast car, you can go in line and do nothing, or try to overtake. If you go in line and do nothing, you get one or two points, but if you jump and it works, you can win and well. And if not, well now, you lost one or two points". Then, emphasizing his son's clash with Collett, the legendary driver recounted: "It's funny because when they go into the zig zag, the guy moves to the right and almost opens the door, and when Sebastian dives, the boy closes it." "He (Sebastián) touches him twice and the second time he does the damage. It's as if the boy felt the blow and decided to close the door," added Juan Pablo Montoya. https://www.eltiempo.com/deportes/automovilismo/juan-pablo-montoya-reacciona-al-choque-de-su-hijo-en-formula-3-es-una-copia-mia-773446
  22. Hvaldimir has reappeared in Norway and Sweden, and the question is to what end. Are you passing through or on a spy mission? This beluga whale was first spotted in Norwegian Arctic waters in 2019. It was wearing a specially made harness with camera mounts and marked "Equipment St. Petersburg," leading experts to believe the animal may have been Trained by the Russian Army. That is, it is speculated that Hvaldimir is a spy whale for the Kremlin. In fact, the name of the cetacean is not trivial: it is a play on words between "hval", the Norwegian word that means whale, and the name of Russian President Vladimir Putin. For four years, the whale has traveled south along the Norwegian coast "with a few stops," the Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries said in early May. The cetacean "tends to stay in hatcheries where it can catch fish, grazing on surplus food," the agency added. In this time, the animal "has suffered multiple and serious injuries: it has been struck by boats, severely cut by boat propellers, and has fishing hooks attached to its body. Someone also placed foreign objects in its mouth that probably they caused a serious oral infection," said OneWhale on Saturday, May 27, an NGO created expressly to protect the health and well-being of the animal These serious injuries occurred before it reached the Oslo area, with more than a million people, major industrial ports and very heavy ship traffic. That raised fears for the whale's safety, the organization explains. However, "the famous beluga dodged the dangerous waters of Oslo in the direction of Sweden," OneWhale reported Monday. "Extremely vulnerable situation" "Hvaldimir's situation remains extremely vulnerable, as Sweden is a highly po[CENSORED]ted country and has more ship traffic than Norway, but we are very grateful that the Swedish authorities have taken steps to care for the whale. They even closed a bridge to protect her," said the president of the NGO, Rich German. The animal is not wearing any harness or object of surveillance in the sightings of recent days, as can be seen in the photographs and videos that OneWhale has published. In 2019 it was different. "I saw the whale and I thought it was really something important. I knew this situation was unique," said Jorgen Ree Wiig, a marine biologist with the Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries, one of the first to find it. https://www.elperiodico.com/es/internacional/20230601/ballena-espia-rusa-hvaldimir-reaparece-aguas-noruega-suecia-dv-88134021
  23. The United States on Thursday announced sanctions against Sudan's army and paramilitaries locked in a proxy war, though it was willing to resume its role as mediator. On Wednesday, after the army suspended its participation in the negotiations, 18 civilians were killed and 106 wounded in a market in the capital Khartoum by artillery fire and aerial bombardments by the armed forces, according to a committee of rights lawyers. humans. The Sudanese army suspended its participation in the dialogue sponsored by the United States and Saudi Arabia, accusing the paramilitaries of the Rapid Support Forces (FAR) that dispute its power of failing to fulfill their commitments. The mediators accused both sides of violating the truce, which was supposed to enable safe corridors to deliver aid to an increasingly needy po[CENSORED]tion. In response, the United States on Thursday announced new economic and visa sanctions against Sudanese leaders for causing "appalling bloodshed," national security adviser Jake Sullivan said in a statement. The economic sanctions hit four companies in particular, according to the Treasury Department: two army arms groups, and two more companies, one of which is linked to gold mines in Sudan, controlled by paramilitary leader General Mohamed Hamdan Daglo, and two of his brothers. A 2019 investigation carried out by the Global Witness organization established that both companies linked to the paramilitaries moved millions of dollars in accounts in dirhams in the United Arab Emirates. "Sanctions are a tool," agreed the expert on Sudan Alex de Waal, who believes that the case of the African country, under US sanctions for two decades, in the days of dictator Omar al Beshir, is "a classic example in the that the sanctions never solved the problems”. And it is that the two generals currently at war are elusive: General Daglo is presented as one of the richest men in Sudan, the third largest gold producer in Africa, and the general and army leader Abdel Fatah al Burhan developed under the embargo previously techniques applied by Washington to evade international sanctions. A few hours before this announcement, the US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, stated in Oslo that his country remains willing to mediate between the parties in Sudan, but that "they must make it clear with their actions that they are going to seriously comply with the ceasefire fire". Children in a state of acute malnutrition Since the fighting began, more than 1,800 people have died, according to the NGO ACLED, and more than a million people have had to flee their homes. Yaqout Abderrahim escaped from Khartoum to Port Sudan (northeast), where he has been waiting 15 days for a seat on an outbound flight. "We want to leave at any cost because our houses have been destroyed and we no longer have a way to raise our children," Abderrahim told AFP amid other families camping on the site. Some 25 million people, more than half of Sudan's po[CENSORED]tion, need help and protection, the UN said. https://www.elespectador.com/mundo/mas-paises/estados-unidos-sanciona-tras-un-mes-de-enfrentamientos-a-los-bandos-del-conflicto-en-sudan/
  24. The US Senate voted Thursday to suspend the federal borrowing limit, after weeks of tense negotiations with just four days to go until the deadline, to avoid the threat of a disastrous default. Economists warned that the country could run out of liquidity to pay its debts on Monday, leaving a narrow margin for the enactment of the Fiscal Responsibility law, which extends the country's borrowing authorization until 2024, in exchange for a cut in federal spending. . The upper house of Congress approved the bill after the House of Representatives processed it, so there will be no confrontation over the debt issue until after the presidential elections. The agreement, negotiated directly by US President Joe Biden and the Republicans, was approved in the Senate with a comfortable majority of 63 to 36. “No one gets everything they want in a negotiation, but make no mistake, this bipartisan deal is a huge win for our economy,” Biden said in a statement on social media. The president further said he would sign the law "as soon as possible" and will address the country on Friday. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said the country could "breathe a sigh of relief" after avoiding a "catastrophic" economic collapse. "However, for all the ups and downs and twists it's taken to get here, it's great for this country that both sides have finally managed to avoid default," he added. The measure - which now goes to Biden's office to be signed - ended with an intense tug of war between the leaders of each party and members of the caucuses, who had threatened the passage of the project with last-minute arguments about the details. Democratic leaders spent months warning of the havoc the first moratorium in US history could wreak, including the loss of millions of jobs and an estimated $15 trillion in household wealth, as well as higher mortgage prices and other loans. defense funds The latest drama of the night came after a series of failed votes on amendments requested in particular by Republicans, who at one point threatened to delay the process, adjourning it. The senators decided to offer 11 modifications to the 99-page text, many of which were related to financing their projects - from border control and trade with China, to taxes and the environment. Defense hawks angered by the Pentagon spending limit, adjusted to Biden's requested budget of $886 billion, threatened to derail the entire approval process. They ultimately agreed to the offer of a separate bill that would fund Ukraine's defense against Russian invasion and advance US national security interests in the Middle East and in the face of China's threat against Taiwan. politically toxic The debt limit has been raised more than 100 times to allow the government to meet its spending commitments, usually without drama and with the support of both Democrats and Republicans. Both sides view raising the debt limit as politically toxic, but acknowledge that failure to do so would plunge the US economy into recession, also rattling world markets. Republicans had hoped to use this debt expansion to criticize what they see as excessive spending by the Democratic government ahead of the 2024 presidential election, although the increases in the debt ceiling only cover commitments already made by both sides. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, Republican, said the weeks-negotiated bill was a great victory for conservatives, though he ran afoul of his more radical supporters who accused him of making too many concessions. He fell short by one of the 150 votes - two-thirds of his caucus - that he had promised to get in the lower house, and he needed Democratic votes to get the bill through the Senate. Among Democrats, the vote was hailed as a huge victory for Biden, who managed to shield nearly all of his domestic priorities from cuts threatened by Republicans. “This legislation protects the full faith and credit of the United States and preserves our financial leadership, which is critical to our economic growth and stability,” said US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. https://www.elespectador.com/mundo/america/senado-de-ee-uu-aprueba-el-acuerdo-sobre-techo-de-deuda-por-poco-noticias-hoy/
