Thousands more evacuated from California's largest wildfire Posted: 03 Aug 2018 08:32 PM PDT (Reuters) - Thousands more mountain residents were evacuated from the path of California's biggest wildfire on Friday as fatigued firefighters battled gusting winds driving one of the state's worst fire seasons in a decade. The Mendocino Complex Fire grew to 157,450 acres (63,700 hectares) late Friday, about half the size of Los Angeles, forcing nearly 16,000 homeowners to flee a blaze that has destroyed 88 structures about 93 miles (150 km) north of San Francisco, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CalFire). Its size overtook the deadly Carr Fire, about 100 miles (160 km) to the northeast, which is among 17 major blazes burning in tinder-dry forests and woodland peppered with dead trees from the state's 2011-2017 drought.

The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said several dozen boats were out training early Thursday morning.

Israeli troops kill Palestinian at Gaza border protest, ceasefire efforts continue Posted: 03 Aug 2018 03:20 PM PDT By Nidal al-Mughrabi GAZA (Reuters) - Israeli troops shot dead a Palestinian and wounded at least 220 others at protests along the Gaza border on Friday, Gaza health officials said, as diplomats sought to secure a durable ceasefire deal. Over four months of weekly Friday border protests that began on March 30 have reduced in intensity lately but organizers have vowed they would continue until Israel lifts economic sanctions on the coastal enclave. The Israeli military said troops had responded with "riot dispersal means" and had operated "according to standard operating procedures," a term that refers to the use of accurate live fire, after some Gazans broke through the border fence and attacked troops with firebombs and an explosive device.

Scattered protests in Iran as U.S. sanctions loom Posted: 04 Aug 2018 01:10 AM PDT Sporadic protests were taking place in cities in Iran for a fourth day, with demonstrators attacking a Shi'ite seminary west of Tehran, according to Iranian news agencies and social media on Saturday, as Iranians brace for a return of U.S. sanctions. Hundreds have rallied in cities across the country, including Tehran, Isfahan and Karaj, according to videos posted on social media, to protest against high inflation caused in part by a plunging rial over fears of the reimposition of crippling sanctions on Aug. 7. In May, the United States pulled out of a 2015 deal between world powers and Tehran under which international sanctions on Iran were lifted in return for curbs on its nuclear program.

Crews battling deadly California wildfire slowed by returning winds Posted: 02 Aug 2018 04:46 PM PDT Crews battling a deadly wildfire in California faced a resurgence of gusty winds on Thursday, hampering progress they were making this week to keep the blaze from spreading. Strong gusts began kicking up again on Wednesday night across upper ridge lines of the fire's mountainous western flank, where the blaze, sparked by a vehicle malfunction on July 23, was burning largely unchecked. The 11-day-old Carr Fire, which has scorched nearly 126,000 acres (51,000 hectares) in the scenic Shasta-Trinity region north of Sacramento, remains the largest and most fearsome of 18 significant wildfires burning across California and more than 100 nationwide.

Posted: 03 Aug 2018 05:44 AM PDT Mitch McConnell cancelled most of the Senate's month long August recess, urging Republicans to stay in Washington and pass a government spending bill. Senators will instead enjoy a vacation throughout the first week in August before returning to the capital for the rest of the month. The Senate majority leader said he decided to make the 2018 recess the shortest summer vacation in decades in part because many of the president's nominees still need to be confirmed.

Man with Down's Syndrome shot dead by Swedish police after running away from home with toy gun  Posted: 03 Aug 2018 01:19 AM PDT A man with Down's Syndrome has been shot dead by Swedish police after running away from home in the middle of the night carrying a toy gun. Eric Torell, 20, who was autistic and was described by his family as being severely disabled, was fatally shot by police who erroneously believed he was carrying a real weapon in the early hours of Thursday morning in downtown Stockholm. Police officers say Mr Torell acted "threateningly" after responding to reports of a man showing a gun to residents at around 4am local time in the district of Vasastan. He died of his injuries after being shot in the stomach. One witness, who was awoken by the sound of several gunshots, said they heard police shouting at someone to lay down his weapon and lie on the ground. Mr Torell had been staying with his father when he wandered out of his home with the toy gun his mother, Katarina Söderber, said looked like a "submachine gun". Eric Torell was shot dead by police  "He got it as a gift. It looked a little like a submachine gun. Until now it was just thrown in a pile of toys," Ms Söderber told Swedish newspaper Expressen. She reacted angrily to the suggestion her son may have acted threateningly, describing her son as "the world's sweetest and most lovable person", adding he could only say a few words like 'mum' due to his speech difficulties. Eric Torell was shot dead by a police patrol in the residential neighbourhood of Vasastan around 4am Credit: AFP Ms Söderber compared her son to "being like a three-year-old", adding he had been reported missing after leaving home in the night. "It's impossible to understand. He wouldn't hurt a fly," she said [translated]. Katarina Söderberg (R), mother of Eric Torell, speaking to the Expressen  Ms Söderber added that her son had left home unannounced on previous occasions but had always returned.   His father, Rickard Torell, told Expressen he went out to search for his son when he realised he was missing.   Mr Torell paid tribute to his son who he described as the "friendliest and most loving person in the world".  A bullet hole is seen at a bicycle at the site  Credit: AFP Sweden's Public Prosecutor's Office confirmed a routine preliminary investigation into possible police misconduct has been launched. Police said they would not speculate on the case until the investigation is complete. Stockholm police chief Ulf Johansson called the shooting "a terrible event."
