July 3, 2018 By administrator

The population of Bulgaria fell below 7 million. This happened exactly at 14:07:03 on 30.06.2018 and was noted in the world’s population counter by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs.

“This is the saddest news of the saddest Petrovden, Bulgaria is in clinical demographic death, it dies!”, commented Petar Ivanov, head of the BANI demographic institute, to Trud.

The data changed throughout the day and at 16:00 yesterday it showed that on Friday, 120 babies were born and 193 people died.

“Every day, we reduce by 220 people or 9 people per hour, this reduction being in fact minus 13 ethnic Bulgarians plus 4 Roma (-9 = -13 + 4) and we are the fastest decreasing nation in the world, “Acad. Ivanov said.

Official figures indicate that we first went through 7 million in 1946 – the census of the population then shows that at 31 December 1946 we have 7,029,349 people. In 1985, we have a peak and we are close to 9 million – 8,948,649 people.

Armenian Opposition Rallies To Mark Anniversary Of Activist’s Death

Anniversary Of Activist’s Death

Anniversary Of Activist’s Death

Several hundred supporters of a newly organized Armenian opposition group rallied in Yerevan to mark the one-year anniversary of the death of an activist who had been arrested for aiding antigovernment gunmen during a standoff with security forces.

The rally in Yerevan’s Liberty Square on March 16 was organized by the Front for the State of Armenia, which has called for opposition unity to force the creation of a provisional government and the release of political prisoners.

Speakers at the rally highlighted the case of Artur Sarkisian, 49, who died of heart failure on March 16, 2017, just days after being released from prison following a 25-day hunger strike.

Sarkisian had been jailed on charges of aiding armed members of a radical opposition group by delivering food to the gunmen during a two-week standoff with security forces in the summer of 2016.

In the incident, some 30 armed members of the group took hostages and barricaded themselves inside a police station. They eventually surrendered, but not until two police officers were killed and several injured during the standoff.

Rally speakers also callied for a combined effort by opposition groups to prevent outgoing President Serzh Sarkisian (no relation) from staying in power as prime minister after he completes his second and final term on April 9.

Following a referendum in December 2015, Armenia changed its form of government from a semipresidential to a parliamentary republic.

Skeptics see the constitutional reforms as a way for Sarkisian to maintain political control in Armenia by becoming prime minister when the mandate for his presidential term expires.

Afrin becoming Turkish soldier death valley, 41 Turkish troops killed during operation in north Syria: Minister

March 3, 2018 By administrator

Ankara says 41 of its soldiers have been killed in Syria’s northwestern region of Afrin, where the Turkish military has been engaged in a ground operation against US-backed Kurdish militants for more than a month.

Turkish Defense Minister Nurettin Canikli made the announcement in a speech delivered at Istanbul National Defense University on Friday, adding that 95 villages or hamlets had come under their control during the so-called Operation Olive Branch.

Canikli further said that 116 members of the so-called Free Syrian Army (FSA) militant group, which has joined Turkish troops in their campaign against members of the Kurdish People’s Defense Units (YPG).

Turkey’s state-run Anatolia news agency quoted Canikli as saying that 2,295 militants of Kurdish factions and Daesh terrorists had been “neutralized” in the offensive, which was launched on January 19.

The Turkish government has said the recent United Nations Security Council resolution on a month-long ceasefire in Syria will have no effect on its cross-border operations.

Ankara views the YPG as a terror organization and the Syrian branch of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).

Ties between Ankara and Washington has further soured over the latter’s support for the Kurdish militants operating at Turkish doorstep.

Turkey launched Operation Olive Branch, its second military intervention in Syia since 2011, after Washington said it would set up a border force comprising 30,000 Kurdish militants near Turkish soil.

Turkey has warned that the Afrin offensive could expand to the nearby Syrian city of Manbij.

Syria has slammed both Turkish and US military activities on its soil as a violation of the Arab nation’s sovereignty.

Egypt’s Sinai Death toll in mosque attack rises to 305

November 25, 2017 By administrator

Death toll of a bomb and gun assault on a packed mosque in Egypt’s restive North Sinai province rose to 305 on Nov. 25, as the country mourned for its dead.

Warplanes struck militant hideouts in retaliation for the country’s deadliest attack in recent memory.

Special prayers were planned nationwide a day after gunmen detonated a bomb and mowed down worshippers fleeing the Rawda mosque in North Sinai, where security forces are battling the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).

President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi declared three days of mourning and vowed to “respond with brutal force” to the attack, among the deadliest in the world since the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States.

“The army and police will avenge our martyrs and return security and stability with force in the coming short period,” he said in a televised speech.

Hours later Egyptian air force jets destroyed vehicles used in the attack and “terrorist” locations where weapons and ammunition were stocked, an army spokesman said.

The state prosecutor’s office said in a statement that 235 people were killed and 109 wounded in the assault on the mosque roughly 40 kilometers west of the North Sinai capital of El-Arish.

Armenian activist’s death in prison sparks protests

March 17, 2017 By administrator

By Associated Press,

YEREVAN, Armenia — Several hundred protesters gathered Thursday in the Armenian capital after an activist died in prison while on hunger strike.

Artur Sarkisyan was detained on charges of aiding terrorists by delivering food to armed men who seized a police compound in Yerevan last year.

Sarkisyan died of heart failure earlier Thursday after being transferred to hospital where he underwent emergency surgery, according to Suren Makaryan, one of the doctors who treated him. He had announced a hunger strike after being re-arrested by police in February.

Demonstrators angry about his death marched through downtown Yerevan despite heavy rain, but were stopped from reaching the Justice Ministry by a police cordon. Some shouted slogans accusing Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan of being responsible for Sarkisyan’s death, while others called for the resignations of the justice and health ministers.

The unrest comes ahead of a parliamentary election scheduled for April 2.

Another demonstration in central Yerevan was planned for Friday, protester Shagen Arutyunyan said.

Two people died and several wounded in a two-week standoff in July when about 30 armed members of a radical opposition group took hostages and barricaded themselves inside a police station. Sarkisyan was accused of breaking a police cordon to deliver food to the gunmen.

The violent confrontation triggered political unrest in the Southern Caucasus nation, galvanizing the opposition movement and leading to repeated clashes between protesters and police.

March 16, 2017 By administrator

YEREVAN. – Activist Shahen Harutyunyan and his friends are staging a protests in Yerevan in memory of “Food Provider”Artur Sargsyan, who died in Armenia medical center Thursday.

A short rally was held in the city’s central Liberty Square, which was followed by a march.

The activists moved from the square to Mashtots Avenue, where they blocked the street, Armenian News – NEWS.am correspondent reports. Some of them sat on the ground, as a result of which the traffic ground to a halt. This march was planned to be held earlier, and Artur Sargsyan was to take part in it.

The police forcefully removed the protestors and opened the road. The protestors are now marching to the Ministry of Justice.

Artur Sargsyan, who was charged with aiding the Sasna Tsrer armed group, was released from prison on December 31, 2016, since he had an illness that was incompatible with imprisonment.

On February 9, however, he was arrested yet again.

Subsequently, Sargsyan went on hunger strike, and demanded that his preventive measure of arrest be commuted.

A few days ago, and with a written guarantee by several dozen MPs, he was released from prison and immediately taken to hospital.

Several days ago, however, he left the hospital on his own volition.

But his health grew worse on Wednesday evening. He was taken to “Armenia” Medical Center, where he underwent surgery, but he did not regain consciousness after this operation.

The Sasna Tsrer armed group had taken over a police patrol regiment building in Yerevan, taken hostages, but later surrendered, in July 2016.

On July 26, Artur Sargsyan had broken through a police wall with a vehicle loaded with food, and delivered food to the members of this armed group.

Turkish invasion of Syria: Turkey airstrikes kill 10 civilian in al-Bab Syria: Monitoring group

Turkish airstrikes in and around the Syrian town of al-Bab have killed at least 10 civilians, including a child, a monitoring group says.

The so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Friday that Turkish warplanes launched the airstrikes against the northern town and the nearby area of Tadif on Thursday.

Turkey, which started an incursion into Syria in August last year, is now in the middle of a military operation with the declared objective of retaking al-Bab from Daesh terrorists.

While Turkish officials deny that airstrikes have killed civilians, the Observatory says almost 250 civilians lost their lives and more than a thousand others sustained injuries between November 13 last year and January 15 this year as a result of Turkish artillery attacks and airstrikes against northern Syrian towns.

‘Bogged down in the Syrian quagmire’

At least 48 Turkish soldiers have also been killed since the battle began to take al-Bab, according to an AFP tally.

On Friday, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan vowed to “finish the job” in al-Bab, but said it was not necessary for the military to push any deeper inside Syria.

Turkish officials have repeatedly claimed in the last few weeks that al-Bab would be taken imminently, but Faruk Logoglu, a former Turkish ambassador to the United States and ex-opposition MP, has said Turkey is being “drawn further into the Syria quagmire,” because it “is lacking final objectives and an exit strategy.”

“The target given is well beyond what’s achievable. That’s the problem,” Logoglu told AFP.

The incursion was the first major Turkish military intervention in Syria, which drew strong condemnation from the Syrian government for violating the Arab country’s sovereignty.
