Pope Francis stands with Peruvian farmers who accused Catholic group of trying to steal their land

QUITO, Ecuador. Pope Francis has thrown his support behind a group of Peruvian villagers who have accused companies affiliated with a powerful South American church organization of attempting to unlawfully seize their land through legal maneuvers and dubious land titling tactics.

In a recorded video message from his residence in the Vatican, the Pope offered solidarity to members of the San Juan Bautista de Catacaos farmers community in northern Peru, who have been embroiled in legal battles against companies associated with the Sodalitium Christianae Vitae since 2014.

“I know what happened to you,” the Pope said in Spanish. “Defend your land and don’t let them steal it.”

The Sodalitium, a conservative lay group, operates schools, spiritual retreat centers, and various businesses in South America. Founded in Peru in 1971, it amassed a large following across the continent but has faced mounting scrutiny in recent years due to allegations of sexual abuse against its founder and senior members.

Last July, the Vatican dispatched a high-level commission to investigate the Sodalitium’s activities in Peru, including allegations of financial impropriety and sexual abuse. During the commission’s visit, they met with members of the Catacaos farmers community, who accused the Sodalitium of attempting to unlawfully acquire 1900 hectares (4,000 acres) of their ancestral land through fraudulent means.

The villagers claim the Sodalitium used forged documents to assert ownership and have subjected them to numerous legal challenges. The land dispute is currently under review by a Peruvian court.

Pope Francis encouraged the Catacaos villagers to persevere in defending their land, which they have cultivated for generations, raising cattle and producing honey. “Thanks for doing what you do,” he said, offering his blessing and requesting prayers for himself.

The Pope’s message coincided with the celebration of the Catacaos community’s 466th anniversary. Marcelino Ynga, the community’s current leader, expressed gratitude for the Pope’s support and hoped for a swift resolution from the Vatican regarding the Sodalitium’s fate.

Carlos Rodriguez, the community’s lawyer, welcomed the Pope’s message as a form of “reparation” for the villagers and recognition of their struggle. “These farmers are not criminals,” he emphasized. “They are guardians of their land.”

Israel celebrates the “success” of thwarting Iran’s unprecedented attack as Biden pursues diplomatic solutions

TEL AVIV, Israel. Israel has lauded its air defenses for repelling an unprecedented assault by Iran, boasting that the systems successfully thwarted 99% of the over 300 drones and missiles launched towards its territory. The region remains tense amid concerns of potential Israeli retaliation, escalating fears of further conflict.

U.S. President Joe Biden announced plans to convene a meeting of the Group of Seven advanced democracies on Sunday to coordinate a united diplomatic response to Iran’s audacious attack. The United States emphasized its stance against participating in any offensive actions against Iran, prioritizing diplomatic solutions.

The attack by Iran was purportedly in retaliation for a strike on an Iranian consular building in Syria earlier in the month, which resulted in the deaths of two Iranian generals. Israel reported that Iran launched a barrage of 170 drones, over 30 cruise missiles, and more than 120 ballistic missiles.

As tensions simmered, a key member of Israel’s War Cabinet, Benny Gantz, asserted Israel’s determination to form a regional coalition to hold Iran accountable. This latest assault marks the first time Iran has directly targeted Israel militarily, intensifying a longstanding enmity dating back to the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Israel’s robust air defense network, developed with the assistance of the United States, played a crucial role in intercepting the barrage of threats, including long-range missiles, cruise missiles, drones, and short-range rockets. The collaboration with allies helped avert what could have been a devastating attack, especially as Israel grapples with ongoing conflicts in Gaza and along its northern border with Hezbollah.

Both Israeli and U.S. officials commended the effectiveness of the response to the aerial assault. Israeli military spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari hailed the interception of over 99% of the threats as a resounding success. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant expressed gratitude for international assistance in thwarting the attack.

While Iran declared the end of its operation, tensions lingered as Iranian officials issued warnings against any further escalation. Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi cautioned against additional actions that could provoke a heavier response from Iran.

The successful defense by Israel contrasts starkly with its struggles during previous conflicts, notably during the recent conflict with Hamas. The outcome of Israel’s response will be closely monitored both regionally and internationally.

In Washington, President Biden praised Israel’s resilience and pledged to engage allies to formulate a unified response. Leaders from the G7 are set to hold a video conference to address the escalating tensions.

The aftermath of the attack has seen increased hostilities across the region, with Hezbollah engaging in attacks along Israel’s northern border, and Iranian-backed groups in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen launching rockets towards Israel. The situation remains fluid, with diplomatic efforts underway to de-escalate tensions and prevent further conflict.

Israel intercepted over 99% of more than 300 drones and missiles launched by Iran

JERUSALEM. Israel was rocked by a barrage of more than 300 drones, ballistic missiles, and cruise missiles launched by Iran in the early hours of Sunday, setting off air raid sirens across the nation. Despite the scale of the attack, Israeli military sources reported that an astounding 99% of the incoming threats were intercepted, marking a significant defensive success.

Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, describing the outcome as “a very significant strategic success,” revealed that Iran had unleashed 170 drones, over 30 cruise missiles, and in excess of 120 ballistic missiles. While some ballistic missiles breached Israeli territory, causing minor damage to an air base, the vast majority of the assault was effectively neutralized.

Tragically, a 7-year-old girl in a Bedouin Arab town in southern Israel sustained serious injuries, allegedly from a missile strike, prompting ongoing investigations by authorities.

In Washington, President Joe Biden confirmed U.S. assistance in thwarting “nearly all” of the drones and missiles, vowing to rally allies for a coordinated response to the attack. The assault, coming less than two weeks after a suspected Israeli strike in Syria that killed two Iranian generals, marked the first direct military assault by Iran on Israel, intensifying longstanding hostilities.

International condemnation swiftly followed, with France warning of potential military escalation, Britain condemning the attack as reckless, and Germany urging Iran and its proxies to cease hostilities immediately.

Hagari stressed that the majority of intercepts occurred outside Israel’s borders, underscoring the magnitude of Iran’s escalation. While Israel’s response remains undisclosed, Hagari affirmed the military’s commitment to safeguarding the nation’s security, with dozens of Israeli warplanes maintaining vigilance in the skies.

Israel’s military credited its Arrow system, designed to intercept ballistic missiles outside the atmosphere, for the successful defense, with support from strategic partners.

President Biden reaffirmed America’s unwavering commitment to Israel’s security in a statement following his conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The attack comes amidst heightened tensions between Israel and Iran, exacerbated by Israel’s ongoing conflict against Hamas militants in Gaza.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard claimed responsibility for the assault, issuing a direct warning to the U.S. against further interference. The escalating situation has put the region on edge, with fears of further retaliation and the potential for a wider conflict looming large.

As diplomatic efforts intensify to defuse tensions, the international community closely monitors developments, hoping to prevent further escalation and restore stability to the volatile region.

Pangulong Marcos kay Duterte: Ipaliwanag ang ‘secret deal’ sa China

MAYNILA. Matapos ang mga pahayag at pag-amin ng Tsina hinggil sa isang kasunduan sa West Philippine Sea (WPS), nanawagan si Pangulong Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. kay dating Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte na ibunyag sa sambayanan ang detalye ng “sekretong deal” na ipinasok ng kanyang administrasyon sa Tsina.

Dahil sa kumpirmasyon mula sa embahada ng Tsina sa Maynila na pumayag si Duterte na i-regulate ang aktibidad ng Pilipinas sa WPS, nagpahayag si Pangulong Marcos ng kanyang saloobin.

Naniniwala ang Pangulo na “sikreto ang naturang agreement sa pagitan ng administrasyong Duterte at China dahil hindi ito naisulat at inilihim sa mga Filipino.”

Ipinunto niya na mahalaga na malaman ng sambayanan ang mga kasunduan ng gobyerno, lalo na kung ito ay may kinalaman sa soberanya ng bansa.

Sa pahayag pa ni Pangulong Marcos, “I disagree with that idea that you enter into a secret agreement. You have any agreement with another sovereign state should really be known by the people so that way you’re accountable. If it’s a bad decision, you’re accountable.”

Matatandaang unang inamin ni Duterte na nagkaroon sila ng kasunduan ni Chinese Presidente Xi Jinping na magkaroon ng status quo sa WPS. Ito ay nauwi sa hindi pagdadala ng construction materials para sa repair ng BRP Sierra Madre sa Ayungin Shoal.

Sa huli, nananawagan si Pangulong Marcos na ang dating pangulo ay magpaliwanag sa publiko hinggil sa mga kasunduang ito at ang posibleng epekto nito sa kinabukasan ng bansa.

Sydney knife attacker shot dead by police after killing 5 in Bondi

SYDNEY. An assault unfolded in Sydney’s suburb of Bondi on Saturday as an assailant wielding a knife struck down five individuals in a shopping mall before being gunned down by police, leaving chaos and tragedy in its wake.

The perpetrator, who engaged with nine people in the bustling Westfield Bondi Junction shopping centre, was swiftly confronted by law enforcement. “She discharged a firearm and that person is now deceased. I am advised that there are five victims who are now deceased as a result of the actions of this offender,” revealed New South Wales Police Assistant Commissioner Anthony Cooke in a press conference.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese condemned the brutal attack, emphasizing its senseless nature. “This was a horrific act of violence, indiscriminately targeting innocent people going about an ordinary Saturday doing their shopping,” he expressed, extending sympathy to the victims and their families.

Despite Australia’s stringent gun and knife laws, incidents of this magnitude remain rare. Emergency services rushed to the scene shortly before 4 p.m. (0600 GMT) following reports of stabbings, with eight individuals, including a child, transported to hospitals, according to a spokesperson for New South Wales Ambulance.

Eyewitness accounts paint a harrowing picture of the ordeal. Reese Colmenares, who sought refuge in a hardware store with 20 others, recounted seeing a wounded baby being attended to. “The mother was terrified, the mother was sad, just holding (and) comforting the baby,” she shared with Reuters.

Reports of shots fired added to the pandemonium. “Even 20 minutes after people were rushed out of the mall, I saw SWAT teams of people sweeping the surrounding streets,” one witness disclosed, while another sought shelter in a nearby jewelry store, witnessing a woman lying on the ground.

An anonymous eyewitness described the tense moment when the police intervened. “If she did not shoot him, he would have kept going, he was on the rampage,” the individual recounted to state broadcaster ABC. “She went over and was giving him CPR. He had a nice big blade on him. He looked like he was on a killing spree.”

Images flooding social media depicted throngs of people fleeing the mall, with police vehicles and emergency services descending upon the area in response to the crisis.

Iran launches drone attack on Israel, with the unfolding events expected to span over several hours

JERUSALEM. Israel’s military has reported that Iran has initiated a drone attack aimed at Israel on Saturday, although the drones are expected to take hours to reach their intended targets. This attack, if successful, could mark a significant escalation in hostilities between the two longstanding adversaries, with the United States reaffirming its commitment to stand by Israel.

According to two security sources in Iraq, numerous drones were observed flying from Iran towards Israel through Iraqi airspace. Iranian state media outlet Press TV has referred to these actions as “extensive drone strikes” carried out by the Revolutionary Guards.

The backdrop to this attack is Iran’s vow to retaliate against what it alleges was an Israeli strike on its Damascus consulate on April 1, resulting in the deaths of seven Revolutionary Guards officers, including two senior commanders. Israel has neither confirmed nor denied its involvement in the incident.

In response to the unfolding situation, U.S. President Joe Biden, who previously cautioned Iran against attacking Israel, reiterated America’s solidarity with Israel in the face of Iranian aggression.

Retired Israeli General Amos Yadlin revealed to Channel 12 news that the Iranian drones are reportedly armed with approximately 20 kg (44 pounds) of explosives each.

Israel’s military has announced that sirens will be sounded in areas under threat, and its defenses are on high alert to counter any potential attacks. Furthermore, Israel and neighboring Jordan have taken the precautionary measure of closing their airspace on Saturday night.

According to Reuters, three U.S. officials have revealed that the U.S. military intercepted and destroyed Iranian drone aircraft en route to Israel on Saturday. However, details such as the number of drones downed and specific locations were not provided.

Iran’s mission to the United Nations issued a warning via social media platform X, urging the United States to abstain from involvement in the Iran-Israel conflict. They cautioned that Tehran’s response would escalate further if Israel retaliates.

The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, now entering its seventh month, has already heightened tensions in the region. This escalation has seen confrontations extending to fronts with Lebanon and Syria, as well as long-range attacks targeting Israeli assets from as far as Yemen and Iraq.

Earlier on Saturday, Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency reported that a helicopter belonging to the Revolutionary Guards had intercepted and taken control of the Portuguese-flagged MSC Aries, bringing it into Iranian waters. MSC, the operator of the Aries, confirmed the seizure and stated that it is collaborating with relevant authorities to ensure the safe return of the vessel and the well-being of its 25 crew members.

Zodiac Maritime, partly owned by Israeli businessman Eyal Ofer, clarified that MSC leases the Aries from Gortal Shipping, an affiliate of Zodiac Maritime. Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz denounced the incident as an act of piracy attributed to Iran.

As tensions continue to escalate in the region, the international community closely watches the unfolding situation, hoping for a swift resolution to avoid further escalation.

The Pope will travel to Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor and Singapore in longest journey of papacy

The Pope will travel to Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor and Singapore in longest journey of papacy

VATICAN CITY. Pope Francis is set to embark on his longest trip since assuming the papacy, traversing Indonesia, East Timor, Papua New Guinea, and Singapore in a monumental journey scheduled for September, the Vatican announced Friday.

The voyage, slated from September 2nd to the 13th, will mark a significant milestone for the 87-year-old pontiff, testing both his health and stamina as he undertakes a rigorous itinerary across diverse regions.

The Vatican confirmed the pontiff’s itinerary, which includes visits to Jakarta, Indonesia; Port Moresby and Vanimo, Papua New Guinea; Dili, East Timor; and Singapore. Further details regarding the trip are expected to be disclosed in due course.

Despite ongoing concerns about his health, Pope Francis has demonstrated resilience, maintaining a demanding schedule of Vatican engagements and local parish visits. However, his bouts of respiratory illness, including bronchitis, have prompted adjustments to his commitments, notably postponing a planned visit to Dubai last year.

Despite these challenges, the upcoming journey is slated to be the lengthiest of Francis’ papacy, spanning 11 days. It will encompass significant encounters, including engagements in Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim nation, and East Timor, a former Portuguese colony deeply influenced by Catholicism.

There is speculation that an additional leg to the journey may be added later, with reports indicating discussions regarding a potential visit to Vietnam during a recent trip by Archbishop Paul Gallagher, the Vatican’s foreign minister.

The Indonesian foreign ministry welcomed the papal visit, underscoring its significance for religious communities in the country and its potential to promote messages of tolerance, unity, and global peace. Indonesia, with a population of approximately 242 million Muslims and 29 million Christians, including 8.5 million Catholics, anticipates the visit with great anticipation.

Similarly, East Timor, Southeast Asia’s predominantly Christian nation, awaits the papal visit with enthusiasm. The small country, with a population of around 1.2 million, is predominantly Catholic, and the visit is expected to reinvigorate faith communities.

However, the visit to East Timor may also reignite attention to a clergy sex abuse scandal involving Bishop Carlos Ximenes Belo, a revered figure in the country’s independence struggle and Nobel Peace Prize laureate. The Vatican confirmed sanctions against Belo in 2022 following allegations of sexual abuse during the 1990s.

Pope Francis’ visit to Papua New Guinea holds particular significance, as he will be the first pope to visit the country since St. John Paul II’s visit in 1984. The South Pacific nation, marred by tribal violence and civil unrest, eagerly anticipates the pontiff’s arrival.

In Singapore, the papal visit carries profound symbolism, as the country welcomes its first cardinal, appointed by Pope Francis in 2022. With a population of 395,000 Catholics, Singapore anticipates the visit as an opportunity for spiritual renewal and unity amidst challenging times.

With only one other planned papal trip this year, to Belgium, Pope Francis’ journey across Asia-Pacific underscores his commitment to global outreach and engagement. While plans for a return to his native Argentina remain uncertain, the upcoming journey is poised to leave an indelible mark on the diverse communities awaiting his arrival.
