Barrage of missiles on Saudi Arabia ramps up Yemen war

By Marwa Rashad, Sarah Dadouch and Abdulrahman al-Ansi RIYADH/SANAA (Reuters) - The Houthi movement that controls northern Yemen vowed on Monday to fire more missiles into Saudi Arabia unless it stops bombing the country, after one of its missiles caused casualties in the Saudi capital for the first time. The Saudi-led coalition fighting the Houthis accused them of using Iranian-made missiles. Spokesman Colonel Turki al-Malki said the coalition reserved the right to respond to Iran "at the appropriate time and manner", under international law and within the framework of the United Nations, to protect Saudi Arabia.

N. Korea's Kim shows unity with China's Xi in first foreign trip

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was treated to a lavish welcome by Chinese President Xi Jinping during a secretive trip to Beijing as both sides seek to repair frayed ties ahead of landmark summits with Seoul and Washington. On his first trip abroad since taking power, Kim and his wife were met with honour guards and a banquet hosted by Xi, according to state media, which confirmed the "unofficial" visit on Wednesday only after Kim had returned to North Korea. The two men held talks at the stately Great Hall of the People during which they hailed their nations' historic relations, with Kim pledging that he was "committed to denuclearisation" on the Korean peninsula, according to China's Xinhua news agency.

Russia fire: Tragedy as parents recall final words with children trapped in shopping mall

The parents of three sisters have described receiving desperate phone calls from their trapped daughters just minutes before they died in a locked cinema as flames engulfed a Russian shopping centre. On Monday, a litany of fire safety violations were blamed for the death toll in the fire in the industrial Siberian city of Kemerovo reaching as high as 64. Investigators said fire exits were blocked and the fire alarm system was switched off by a security guard shortly after the fire broke out. Authorities launched a criminal investigation into the fire. Four people were arrested and questioned by police on Monday, including the head of the company responsible for servicing the fire alarm system and the technical director of the company that owned the shopping centre. “Our children burned while we just watched,” said Olga Lillyevyali, who rushed to the shopping centre as the fire was underway, Russian news website Meduza reported. Her three daughters, twins aged 11 and their five-year-old sister, had been dropped off at the cinema by their father, Alexander Lillyevyali, to see children’s film Sherlock Gnomes earlier that afternoon. A view of the smoldering shopping centre from above on Monday morning Credit:  Kirill Kukhmar/ TASS When he got a phone call an hour later from one of his daughters to say she was stuck behind locked doors as the fire spread, he raced upstairs. Russian media reported local people saying that the cinemas in the shopping centre locked their doors to stop people entering without a ticket.  “I started to crawl but I realised I had no strength,” Mr Lillyevyali. “I had inhaled so much smoke that I was on the verge of fainting. My daughter was ringing and ringing me. I could only shout down the phone that she should try and get out of the cinema but I couldn’t do anything – there were flames in front of me.” Media reports suggested the initial blaze broke out on the fourth floor of the building, possibly at a trampolining centre, and spread rapidly, generating huge clouds of billowing black smoke. Eyewitnesses said that staff did not arrange for evacuation from the building, which was converted from a former confectionery factory in 2013. Some were quick to blame lax regulations on Russia’s fire safety inspection authorities, who have been accused of taking bribes to turn a blind eye to breaches. The Winter Cherry shopping centre, in Kemerovo, engulfed in flames on Sunday Credit: Danil Aikin/TASS via Getty Opposition leader and anti-corruption activist Alexei Navalny wrote on Monday: “the whole system of fire safety oversight has become a huge trough of corruption. It hasn’t had any other goals for a long time.” The Prosecutor General's Office on Monday ordered all shopping malls in Russia to be checked for fire safety features. President Vladimir Putin, re-elected last weekend, has yet to speak publicly about the tragedy, which has stirred deep anger in Kemerovo, a coal-producing region about 3,600 km (2,200 miles) east of Moscow. The Kremlin published a statement, saying Mr Putin "expressed his deep condolences to the relatives and loved ones of those who died." It was not immediately clear how many other children had died in the blaze, with authorities saying 8 of the 23 victims so far identified were kids, but the shopping centre was full of families enjoying the first weekend of the Easter school holidays. A young girl from the central Russian city of Kazan, Maya Yerokhina, believed to be among the victims, updated the status on her profile page on Russian social networking site Vkontakte during the fire to read: “this is the end.” Video showed people jumping from windows to escape the flames Credit: Danil Aikin /TASS/Getty An eleven-year old boy was in intensive care on Monday after jumping from a third-floor window to escape the thick smoke during a dramatic escape caught on camera. Both his parents and a sibling were reported to have died. One piece of footage aired by state television showed people desperately trying to escape by battering down a closed door as flames crept closer. Eight children, mostly aged between 11 and 12, from the same school in the local village of Treschevsky perished in the blaze while on a trip marking the end of the school term. One of the girls from the group, 12-year old Viktoriya Pochankina, reportedly got through to her aunt from the burning cinema and asked her aunt to tell her mother she loved her. The ceilings of two cinema theaters in the mall reportedly collapsed Some 200 animals, including rabbits, turtles, pigs, goats are also believed to have died in the shopping centre's petting zoo. As Russia tried to process what had happened, an official period of mourning was declared and locals brought flowers and candles to the blackened remains of the shopping centre. One sign left at the site read: "Forgive us, children." Local hospitals reported an influx of people wanting to donate blood for the victims. Stories of feats of bravery also emerged.  Local schoolteacher Tatyana Darsaliya, 36, reportedly led her own daughter to safety and then returned to the burning building to try and save other children. Darsaliya’s daughter, Eleonora, wrote on Monday that her mother had “died like a hero.” Flames lick a window frame at the shopping centre, where some witnesses said the fire alarm did not go off Credit: Danil Aikin/TASS/Barcroft Images Roof collapsed in two cinemas at shopping centre Preliminary findings of an inquiry said the fire started in one of the cinema halls and destroyed more than 10,700 square feet (1,000 square metres) of the centre, news agencies reported. "The roof collapsed in two theatres in the cinema," the Investigative Committee said. Hundreds of firefighters battled the blaze for hours Credit: Danil Aikin/TASS via Getty Around 120 people had been evacuated from the burning centre, rescuers said. "This shopping centre on several floors was packed with people mid-day Sunday," said Alexandre Eremeyev, an official with the local Russian emergency services ministry. Burnt debris outside the shopping centre  Credit: Maxim Grigoryev /TASS/Getty He added: "No one knows exactly how many people there were inside when the fire broke out. "Where to look for people? How many are there? That has greatly complicated the work of the firefighters." Hundreds of firefighters spend hours tackling blaze Around 300 firefighters and rescue personnel rushed to the scene and tackled the blaze for more than 17 hours. Russia's minister of emergency services, Vladimir Putchkov has gone to Kemerovo, RIA Novosti said. Hundreds of firefighters were scrambled to the scene Credit: Danil Aikin /TASS/Getty Deadliest blaze in Russia for almost a decade The Winter Cherry shopping centre fire was the deadliest blaze in Russia in recent years: A shopping centre fire in March 2015 killed 11 people in Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan some 500 miles east of Moscow. In April 2013, a fire ravaged a psychiatric hospital in the Moscow region, killing 38 people, most of them patients who were engulfed by flames as they slept behind barred windows. Just months later, in September 2013, 37 people were killed when a fire swept through a psychiatric hospital in the village of Luka in northwest Russia. In 2009, 156 were killed in a nightclub fire in the city of Perm, 745 miles east of Moscow in one of the deadliest accidents in Russia's modern history.

Last week, US military officials and lawmakers highlighted hypersonic missiles as a particular area of concern. “Right now, we’re helpless,” Republican Senator James Inhofe, a senior member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, was quoted by The Hill as saying in advocating for more funding for hypersonic missiles.

New Zealand says it can't find Russian spies to expel

New Zealand said on Tuesday it would like to expel Russian spies in retaliation for allegedly poisoning an ex-agent in Britain - only it can't find any Moscow operatives in the country. Scores of Russian diplomats have been ordered from the United States, Canada, Australia and various European countries in the wake of the nerve agent attack on Sergei Skripal and his daughter in Salisbury. New Zealand, a former British colony and staunch London ally, offered in-principle support but admitted a lack of Russian spy activity meant there was little action it could take. "We have done a check in New Zealand. We don't have Russian undeclared intelligence officers here. If we did, we would expel them," Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern told state radio. "When there's a range of international interests ... does it surprise me New Zealand is not top of their list? No, actually." Ardern said New Zealand "will keep under review what further actions it can take to support the international community over the Salisbury attack". Russia has denied it was behind the attempted assassination, which left Skripal and his daughter gravely ill in perhaps the first nerve agent attack in Europe since World War II. Mapped: Russian diplomats expelled from West New Zealand is a member of the "Five Eyes" intelligence-sharing network, which also includes the United States, Britain, Canada and Australia. Ms Ardern's comments came as Australia moved to expel two Russian diplomats in response to the poisoning. The United States said on Monday it would expel 60 Russian diplomats, joining governments across Europe in punishing the Kremlin. In total, 100 Russian diplomats were being removed, the biggest Western expulsion of Russian diplomats since the height of the Cold War. Australia followed suit on Tuesday. Julie Bishop, the foreign minister, said further measures, such as Australia boycotting the 2018 World Cup in Russia, could also be taken over the poisoning incident - but later rowed back on the threat. Malcolm Turnbull, the prime minister, said: "Together with the United Kingdom and other allies and partners, Australia is taking action in response to the recent nerve agent attack in Salisbury, UK. "Two Russian diplomats identified as undeclared intelligence officers will be expelled by the Australian government for actions inconsistent with their status, pursuant to the Vienna Conventions." Australia has already imposed a series of sanctions against Russia following the downing of Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17 and the Russian annexing of parts of Ukraine in 2014. Traveling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, MH17 which was shot down in 2014 killing all 298 passengers and crew. Most of the victims were Dutch and 28 were Australians. International prosecutors concluded the airliner was shot down by a missile fired from a launcher brought into Ukraine from Russia and located in a village held by pro-Russian rebels, contradicting Moscow’s suggestion that Ukraine’s military brought down the plane.
