Police clearing pro-Palestinian tent encampment at George Washington University, 33 arrested
WASHINGTON: Police began to clear a pro-Palestinian tent encampment at George Washington University early Wednesday and arrested 33 protesters, hours after dozens left the site and marched to President Ellen Granberg's home. Officials at the university in Washington, D.C., had warned of possible suspensions for students engaging in protest activities on University Yard. While the university is committed to protecting students' rights to free expression, the encampment had evolved into an unlawful activity, with participants in direct violation of multiple university policies and city regulations, the university said in a statement. Local media had reported that some protesters were pepper sprayed as police stopped them from entering the encampment, according to community organizers. In a statement, the District of Columbia's Metropolitan Police Department said arrests were made for assault on a police officer and unlawful entry. Police said 33 people were arrested. The department said it moved to disperse demonstrators because here has been a gradual escalation in the volatility of the protest. Tuesday evening, protesters carrying signs that read, Free Palestine and Hands off Rafah, marched to Granberg's home. Police were called to maintain the crowd. No arrests were made. This comes as Mayor Muriel Bowser and MPD Chief Pamela Smith are set to testify about the District of Columbia's handling of the protest at a House Committee on Oversight and Accountability hearing on Wednesday afternoon. A pro-Palestinian tent encampment was cleared at the University of Chicago on Tuesday after administrators who had initially adopted a permissive approach said the protest had crossed a line and caused growing concerns about safety. University President Paul Alivisatos acknowledged the school's role as a protector of freedom of speech after officers in riot gear blocked access to the school's Quad but also took an enough-is-enough stance. The university remains a place where dissenting voices have many avenues to express themselves, but we cannot enable an environment where the expression of some dominates and disrupts the healthy functioning of the community for the rest, Alivisatos wrote in a message to the university community. Tensions have continued to ratchet up in standoffs with protesters on campuses across the U.S. and increasingly, in Europe nearly three weeks into a movement launched by a protest at Columbia University. Some colleges cracked down immediately on protests against the Israel-Hamas war. Among those that have tolerated the tent encampments, some have begun to lose patience and call in police over concerns about disruptions to campus life, safety and the involvement of nonstudents. Since April 18, just over 2,600 people have been arrested on 50 campuses, figures based on AP reporting and statements from universities and law enforcement agencies. But not all schools are taking that approach, with some letting protesters hold rallies and organize their encampments as they see fit. The president of Wesleyan University, a liberal arts school in Connecticut, has commended the on-campus demonstration which includes a pro-Palestinian tent encampment as an act of political expression. The camp there has grown from about 20 tents a week ago to more than 100. The protesters' cause is important bringing attention to the killing of innocent people, university President Michael Roth wrote to the campus community Thursday. And we continue to make space for them to do so, as long as that space is not disruptive to campus operations. The Rhode Island School of Design, where students started occupying a building Monday, affirms students' rights to freedom of speech and peaceful assembly and supports all members of the community, a spokesperson said. The school said President Crystal Williams spent more than five hours with the protesters that evening discussing their demands. On Tuesday the school announced it was relocating classes that were scheduled to take place in the building. It was covered with posters reading Free Palestine and Let Gaza Live, and dove was drawn in colored chalk on the sidewalk. Campuses have tried tactics from appeasement to threats of disciplinary action to resolve the protests and clear the way for commencements. At the University of Chicago, hundreds of protesters gathered for at least eight days until administrators warned them Friday to leave or face removal. On Tuesday, law enforcement dismantled the encampment. Officers later picked up a barricade erected to keep protesters out of the Quad and moved it toward the demonstrators, some of whom chanted, Up, up with liberation. Down, down with occupation! Police and protesters pushed back and forth along the barricade as the officers moved to reestablish control.

Pakistan court orders jail for wife of former PM Imran Khan, lawyer says
Pakistan court orders jail for wife of former PM Imran Khan, lawyer says A court in Pakistan granted on Wednesday a request by the wife of former Prime Minister Imran Khan to shift to jail, her lawyer said, instead of house arrest ordered by the government because of security concerns. Bushra Bibi, detained at Khan's hilltop mansion in Islamabad since the couple's January conviction on charges of illegally selling state gifts, had challenged the house arrest, her lawyer Naeem Panjutha posted on social media platform X. Through her lawyers Bibi had filed an appeal in the Islamabad High Court, asking to be shifted to the jail. The court ordered authorities to shift her to Adyala jail in the garrison city of Rawalpindi, where Khan, 70, a former cricket superstar, is serving his 14-year sentence, his party said in a statement. The party said Bibi had complained of being served contaminated food by the authorities at the house, which was declared a sub-jail. The authorities have denied the accusation.

First crewed test flight of Boeing Starliner capsule targeted for May 17
First crewed test flight of Boeing Starliner capsule targeted for May 17 The target date for the next attempt to launch Boeing Co's Starliner space capsule on its first crewed test flight has been pushed back to no earlier than May 17, to replace a pressure valve on its booster rocket, NASA said on Tuesday. The CST-100 Starliner's debut voyage carrying astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS) has been highly anticipated and much-delayed as Boeing scrambles to compete with Elon Musk's SpaceX for a greater share of lucrative NASA business. The test flight was called off on Monday night with less than two hours left in the countdown after a pressure regulation valve malfunctioned on the upper-stage liquid oxygen tank of the Atlas V rocket that was to launch the new capsule into orbit. The rocket, a separate component from the Starliner capsule, was furnished for the mission by United Launch Alliance (ULA), a Boeing-Lockheed Martin joint venture. After Monday night's aborted launch attempt, NASA, Boeing and ULA announced that they would seek to try again as early as Friday, May 10. But in an update posted Tuesday evening, NASA said more time was needed after ULA decided to remove and replace the faulty pressure valve. That will require the rocket to be rolled back to its hangar on Wednesday for repairs, leak checks and other reviews ahead of a second launch attempt, NASA said. Those operations pushed the potential launch date back another week, NASA said.
Assault on Rafah would be strategic mistake: UN Chief Guterres
The News Mill
North Korean propaganda chief who served all three leaders dies
North Korean propaganda chief who served all three leaders dies Kim Ki Nam, one of the longest-serving North Korean officials who served all three generations of its leaders cementing their political legitimacy and heading the propaganda apparatus for the dynastic state, has died, official media said on Wednesday. North Korea leader Kim Jong Un visited the bier of Kim at 2 a.m. on Wednesday to pay tribute with bitter grief over the loss of a veteran revolutionary who had remained boundlessly loyal to the country until the very end, it said. Kim died on Tuesday at the age of 94, official KCNA news agency said. He was part of a core group of loyal officials who had worked to sustain the three generations of Kims by solidifying their legitimacy carrying the blood line of a revolutionary leader who founded the state in 1945. He devoted himself to backing the victorious journey of building a powerful socialist country by maintaining the powerful offensive and fresh development in the new era in all spheres of the Party's ideological work, KCNA said. Kim is one of the very few North Korean officials to have visited the South, leading a funeral delegation in 2009 after the death of President Kim Dae-jung who opened an era of reconciliation with Pyongyang with his Sunshine Policy. He moved to the forefront of the North's propaganda machine, becoming its deputy head in 1966 and then chief in 1985 during state founder Kim Il Sung's rule, according to South Korean government data. He retired in 2017. Kim exerted tremendous influence on policy and personnel and was a key architect of the ruling Workers' Party's political foundation, according to North Korea expert Michael Madden at the Stimson Center. He was particularly close to Kim Jong-il, the father of the current leader who died in 2011, and was believed to be his drinking buddy, Madden said citing sources.
US revokes some export licenses for firms supplying China's Huawei
US revokes some export licenses for firms supplying China's Huawei The U.S. on Tuesday said it revoked some licenses that allow companies to ship goods, such as chips, to sanctioned Chinese telecommunications equipment maker Huawei Technologies. Some companies were notified on Tuesday that their licenses were revoked effective immediately, according to one person familiar with the matter. The move comes after the release last month of Huawei's first AI-enabled laptop, the MateBook X Pro powered by Intel's new Core Ultra 9 processor. The laptop launch drew fire from Republican lawmakers, who said it suggested to them that the Commerce Department had given the green light to Intel to sell the chip to Huawei. We have revoked certain licenses for exports to Huawei, the Commerce Department said in a statement, declining to specify which ones it had withdrawn. The move, first reported by Reuters, comes after concerted pressure by Republican China hawks in Congress who have been urging the Biden administration to take tougher action to thwart Huawei. This action will bolster U.S. national security, protect American ingenuity, and diminish Communist Chinas ability to advance its technology, Republican Congresswoman Elise Stefanik said in a statement. Depending on which licenses were revoked, the move could also hurt Huawei which still relies on Intel chips to power its laptops, and could hurt U.S. suppliers that do business with the company. A spokesperson for Intel declined to comment. Huawei did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Huawei was placed on a U.S. trade restriction list in 2019 amid fears it could spy on Americans, part of a broader effort to handicap China's ability to bolster its military. Being added to the list means the company's suppliers have to seek a special, difficult-to-obtain license before shipping. Even so, suppliers to Huawei have received licenses worth billions of dollars to sell Huawei goods and technology, including one particularly controversial authorization, issued by the Trump administration, which has allowed Intel to ship central processors to Huawei for use in its laptops since 2020. Qualcomm has sold older 4G chips to handsets since receiving a license from U.S. officials in 2020. In regulatory filing earlier this month, Qualcomm had said it did not expect to receive more chip revenue from Huawei beyond this year. However, Qualcomm still licenses its portfolio of 5G technologies to Huawei, which last year began using a 5G chip designed by its HiSilicon unit that most analysts believe is manufactured in violation of U.S. sanctions. Qualcomm said in the filing this month that its patent deal with Huawei expires early in Qualcomm's fiscal 2025 and that it has started negotiations to renew the deal. Qualcomm did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Critics argue such licenses have contributed to the company's resurgence. Huawei shocked industry last August with a new phone powered by a sophisticated chip manufactured by Chinese chipmaker SMIC, despite U.S. export restrictions on both companies. The phone helped Huawei smartphone sales spike 64% year on year in the first six weeks of 2024, according to research firm Counterpoint. Its smart car component business has also contributed to Huawei's resurgence, with the company notching its fastest revenue growth in four years in 2023.
