  1. Ethnic Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh sit next to their belongings near a tent camp after arriving to Armenia's Goris in Syunik region, Armenia [File: Vasily Krestyaninov/AP Photo] Azerbaijan has “completed” the ethnic cleansing of Nagorno-Karabakh, Armenia claimed to the UN’s top court. In a case brought by Yerevan against its Caucus neighbour and rival over alleged discrimination and ethnic cleansing, lawyers for Armenia on Tuesday told the International Court of Justice (ICJ) that Baku is “erasing all traces of ethnic Armenians’ presence” in the contested territory. “After threatening to do so for years, Azerbaijan has completed the ethnic cleansing of the region,” Armenia’s representative Yeghishe Kirakosyan claimed. The two Caucasian countries have been contesting the Nagorno-Karabakh territory during the three decades since the Soviet Union collapsed. Yerevan has sought to bring international attention to the mountainous enclave since Baku took control in a military operation in September. The ICJ case, filed by Armenia in 2021, accuses Azerbaijan of glorifying racism against and allowing hate speech against Armenians and destroying Armenian cultural sites. Armenia said that put Azerbaijan in violation of a UN anti-discrimination treaty. Baku has denied all the accusations against it. The case stems from a 2020 war over Nagorno-Karabakh that left more than 6,600 people dead, one of three full-scale conflicts that the pair have fought over the issue. Azerbaijan’s armed forces recaptured the mountainous region in September after years of ethnic Armenian control, prompting most ethnic Armenians to flee to Armenia. Kirakosyan said Baku was “now consolidating [its control of Nagorno-Karabakh] by systematically erasing all traces of ethnic Armenians’ presence, including Armenian cultural and religious heritage”. He told the judges that Baku “has increasingly been characterising Armenia’s human rights claims … as some sort of challenge to Azerbaijan’s sovereignty or territorial integrity.” “Azerbaijan is profoundly mistaken. Armenia has no claims to Azerbaijan’s territory and is also committed to establishing conditions for genuine and enduring peace,” the lawyer asserted. Bad faith On Monday, the first day of the hearings, Azerbaijan told the court that most of Armenia’s complaints did not fall within the scope of the UN treaty. Baku’s lawyers also accused Armenia of failing to genuinely engage in negotiations, a pre-requisite under the treaty for bringing the case to the ICJ. Kirakosyan rejected the claims. “Armenia negotiated with Azerbaijan in good faith and pursued discussions far beyond the point of utility,” he stated.

Azerbaijan says it has pledged to ensure all residents’ safety and security, regardless of national or ethnic origin, and that it has not forced ethnic Armenians to leave Karabakh. The hearings will cover only the legal objections to the jurisdiction of the ICJ and will not go into the merits of the discrimination claims. A final ruling in both cases could be years away and the ICJ has no way to enforce its rulings. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/4/16/armenia-claims-azerbaijan-completed-ethnic-cleansing-in-nagorno-karabakh
  2. An antimissile system operates as Iran-launched drones and missiles target Israel [Amir Cohen/Reuters] Israel has launched a “diplomatic offensive” against Iran, calling for sanctions against the Islamic republic. Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz said on Tuesday that he has contacted 32 countries calling on them to impose sanctions against Tehran. The move comes as Israel mulls a military response to Iran’s attack on Israel. Iran says its attacks on Saturday, using more than 300 drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles, were in retaliation for Israel’s strike on the Iranian consulate in Syria. That attack killed 13 people, including two commanders of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC). The Israeli military said it intercepted 99 percent of the aerial threats with the help of the United States and other allies, and that the attack caused only minor damage, including to a military base in the country’s south. “Alongside the military response to the firing of the missiles and the UAVs, I am leading a diplomatic offensive against Iran,” Katz said on X. “This morning, I sent letters to 32 countries and spoke with dozens of foreign ministers and leading figures around the world, calling for sanctions to be imposed on the Iranian missile project and that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps be declared a terrorist organisation”. Katz did not specify which governments he had asked to impose the sanctions. The IRGC is already blacklisted as a terrorist organisation by the United States and is subject to EU sanctions. “Iran must be stopped now – before it is too late,” Katz insisted. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/4/16/israeli-minister-urges-sanctions-in-diplomatic-offensive-against-iran

  10. The 2025 Yukon follows its Chevy three-row siblings with a new look up front and, presumably, a similarly spruced-up interior, which we'll see when it's revealed later this year. The 2025 GMC Yukon AT4 has shown its redesigned face for the first time. The full-size three-row SUV follows in the footsteps of its GM siblings, the 2025 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban, which debuted a new look late last year. According to GMC, the 2025 Yukon's full reveal will occur later this year. Full-size SUVs are the truck-based behemoths we use to haul vast numbers of people and acres of cargo when minivans just won't cut it. GMC is preparing to update its contribution to the three-row-SUV world, as we are now seeing the redesigned face of the 2025 Yukon AT4 for the first time ahead of its late-2024 debut. The full-size SUV follows in the footsteps of its GM siblings, the 2025 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, which were redesigned earlier this year with fancier interiors and a more powerful diesel engine. GMC's teaser doesn't show the full front end of the new Yukon, but the central change appears to be the redesigned headlights. The Yukon's grille and the rest of the front fascia also feature new designs in conjunction with the new headlights. According to GMC, the 2025 Yukon will be revealed in full later this year. We think changes for the GMC will mirror those of the bowtie brand's SUVs. That means lightly refreshed exteriors and a larger focus on improving the cabin. 2025 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. Those models feature a new column-mounted gear selector, a new standard 17.7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and a standard 11.0-inch digital gauge cluster. Under the hood, the familiar 5.3- and 6.2-liter V-8s return, and the diesel inline-six is completely overhauled. The redesigned Duramax diesel 3.0-liter inline-six pairs with a 10-speed automatic gearbox and produces 305 horsepower and 495 pound-feet of torque, up from 277 ponies and 460 pound-feet in the older models. Chevy claims the suspension has been updated for a more refined ride in its pairing, while the steering calibration is also said to be revised. Those both sound good to us, especially considering we were already fans of the surprisingly controlled ride in the full-size SUV. Specifics such as returning trim levels and pricing will be revealed closer to the vehicle's launch. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a60468290/2025-gmc-yukon-teaser-reveal/
  11. Red Roses have adapted under John Mitchell to provide platform for full-back but Bryan Easson’s side remain unfazed Ellie Kildunne is leading the charts for most points scored in this year’s Women’s Six Nations. Photograph: Alex Davidson/RFU/The RFU Collection/Getty Images Ellie Kildunne’s touch in this year’s Women’s Six Nations is turning things to gold. The England full-back is not only the tournament’s top try-scorer with four but she also tops the charts for most points scored and in metres carried and gained. The Harlequins player, who will look to add to her stats against Scotland on Saturday, is undoubtedly in great form but she also has England’s expansive attack to thank for giving her the platform. England’s attack has adapted under their new head coach, John Mitchell, and the attack coach, Lou Meadows. In previous tournaments fans have seen the Red Roses call upon their lethal driving maul often, with the backs not having as much time on the ball. However, England have now unleashed their back line as well as their forwards and maul, making their attack less predictable. The England and Bristol prop Sarah Bern, who is currently injured, says it is clear the Red Roses are trying to play a bit differently: “They are trying to play and find the space and get it there the best way possible, which makes it really hard for defences. They [the opposition] can’t just drop two in the back field because England will run it. They can’t put everyone in the front field as England would kick it. So it is more of an elusive way of playing.” Bern can also see how the attack is putting Kildunne on the front foot: “Our whole back three, even our outside centres, are getting on the ball a hell of a lot more. You’ll see more of them in more spaces because defences have to mark [the fly-half]Holly Aitchison, [the centre] Tatyana Heard. They have to mark the kicks from [the scrum-half] Natasha Hunt and Holly. The space is there, so if we get the ball to those people like Ellie who thrive in space … “She is going to have a hell of a tournament, she is so far. But I do think it is down to the way England want to play, the players in the middle that control that and the brilliance of the pack that gets them the ball.” Scotland’s Chloe Rollie is not scared about the threat her opposite number poses. Photograph: David Gibson/Fotosport/Shutterstock Kildunne’s opposite number is the Scotland full-back Chloe Rollie, who set out how her team plans to stop Kildunne. “I think we need to shut them down further in the line to stop her getting her hands on the ball,” Rollie says. “We [also] need to be smart about when and where we are going to kick it.” Bryan Easson’s side have put in impressive defensive shifts in their matches so far. Scotland players are top of the breakdown steals, cleanouts and lineout steals in the tournament. But if Kildunne is fed the ball, Rollie is not scared of the threat she poses. “She is just another player,” Rollie adds. “If she does get the ball you deal with her. Put her under pressure, put everyone under pressure. If we stick to the gameplan we want to play we have got nothing to worry about.” Scotland’s attempt to stage an upset will be played in front of a record crowd for a women’s rugby game in Scotland – a 7,774 sellout at the Hive Stadium in Edinburgh. England have not lost to Scotland since 1999 but Scotland’s performances and trophy win at the WXV2 last autumn has given them belief they can win. “We would be silly not to think that,” Rollie adds on the prospect of an upset. “Especially after the performances we have put in the last few weeks. England are top in the world just now but there’s no reason someone can’t disrupt them and put them under pressure. The form we are under is the perfect opportunity to go and do that. The belief and confidence we have behind us will play a massive role.” https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2024/apr/12/england-attack-has-unleashed-ellie-kildunne-but-scotland-sniff-an-upset
  12. ‘I’d never felt fear like it’: Elsje Pretorius in Hamilton, New Zealand. Photograph: Jessie Casson/The Guardian In September 2014, I gave birth to my third daughter, Nadine, in Auckland, New Zealand. It had been a dramatic delivery. Three epidurals had left me with a stiff neck and an excruciating headache. So a few days after her birth, I was back for tests, bringing her along with me as she needed feeding. It was the last place I wanted to be. Despite the exhaustion, I didn’t want to let Nadine out of my arms. But I was desperate for a shower. The hospital had given me an en suite bedroom, but I still paused before I stepped into the bathroom, watching Nadine sleeping in her cot. Should I wheel her in with me? I decided not to. She was safe and settled, and I’d only be a few feet away. Afterwards, as I walked back into the bedroom, a nurse was standing there. We both looked into Nadine’s cot. It was empty. “Did you pick her up?” I asked. “No,” she replied. Instantly, I couldn’t breathe. It felt like ice-cold water had been poured over me. As the nurse called for security, I fell on my hands and knees, and frantically searched the floor, thinking maybe she had fallen out of her cot and rolled away. That’s when the awful realisation hit me: someone had taken my baby. I flew down the corridor screaming at everyone I saw: “Do you have my baby?” Everything became a blur as a nurse led me back to my bed. With her arm around my shoulder, I called my husband, Conrad. My voice cracked as I heard myself say, “Don’t tell the kids, but Nadine is gone. You need to get here now.” I replayed the second I’d walked away from Nadine’s cot over and over. Why hadn’t I taken her into the bathroom with me? I felt trapped in a waking nightmare. I’d never felt fear like it. But I didn’t cry until Conrad ran in 20 minutes later. Then I broke down. Why hadn’t I taken Nadine to the bathroom with me? The guilt was awful. When the police came and told us they would be checking CCTV, Conrad jumped up. “Take me with you,” he said. They had to calm him down, persuading him to stay with me and let them do their jobs. After 30 minutes, an officer returned. He showed us a grainy image of a woman in dark glasses with a baby in her arms. It had been taken outside the hospital. She was known to the staff – she lived locally and desperately wanted to have a child of her own. As the police left to investigate, we could only wait and pray. Every so often an officer would return to see us, but they didn’t have any more news. I replayed the second I’d walked away from Nadine’s cot over and over. Why hadn’t I taken her into the bathroom with me? I thought about Vanja and Isabella, who were being looked after by a relative. How could any of us live without their sister? At about 2am, a nurse gave me tablets to help me sleep. A phone ringing woke me with a start. I saw Conrad answer and my heart seemed to stop as I watched him listen, expressionless. Then his face broke out into a smile. Even before he said, “They’ve found her,” I knew. I leapt out of bed and into his arms. We were in floods of tears as we hugged and jumped around the room. Twenty minutes later, a police officer arrived, pushing Nadine in a cot. As I held her, Conrad put his arms around us. We cried. The world felt right again. The officer said Nadine had been found at the house of the woman who was in the CCTV image. They said the baby was unhurt and that they’d arrested the kidnapper and her partner. I still had to have a scan on my neck, but was discharged a few hours later. It should have been wonderful to be back home, but because our story had been on the news, it was crazy. The phone didn’t stop ringing and our house was filled with friends and family. The kidnapper was later tried in court and pleaded guilty. I never hated her; I pitied her. She’d wanted a baby, not my baby specifically. But I was glad that a line had been drawn. The trauma of that night faded, but didn’t disappear. I gave up my job in accounts to become a childminder so I didn’t have to leave Nadine. Even now, nine years later, I’ll panic if I haven’t seen her for more than 10 minutes. But Nadine is an absolute joy – talkative, bubbly, confident. She’s spoilt rotten by us all and rules the roost. Now I watch her sleeping, and am thankful every single day that she came back to me. https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2024/apr/12/experience-my-newborn-baby-was-kidnapped-from-hospital
