Starting in Africa today, in Tanzania, the United Nations Human Rights Office has said that it believes that hundreds of people were killed in protests against disputed elections last month. Opposition parties and rights groups have previously stated that more than a thousand people were killed in the protests. However, this is the first time that the United Nations has recognised this. In Nigeria's Tin Can port in Lagos, a cocaine shipment worth $235 million has been seized. Nigeria's Drug Enforcement Agency has said that 1,000 kilograms of cocaine was discovered and they are working with drug agencies from the US and the UK to determine the origins of the cocaine. In South Africa, Dudusila Zuma Sambudla, the daughter of former President Jacob Zuma, is in court over charges that she incited public violence and terrorism during riots in 2021. In July 2021, after the arrest of Jacob Zuma, protests against his arrest turned into general riots, with many shops, supermarkets and businesses being looted, which is when many people steal from a business at the same time. The South African government says that 354 people died during the riots. Dudusila Zuma Sambudla is accused of using social media to encourage people to riot. In Angola, three Argentinian footballers who all play for Atletico Madrid will not be able to play a friendly football match against Angola on Friday because they didn't complete their yellow fever vaccinations on time, the Argentinian Football Association has said. Everyone visiting Angola is required to be vaccinated against yellow fever, which is a disease carried by mosquitoes. Asia India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that those responsible for the car explosion in Delhi on Monday evening will be brought to justice. 13 people are now known to have died in the explosion near Delhi's Red Fort. Indian media was reporting yesterday that the car belonged to a doctor from Kashmir and that he was apparently driving the car. However, his family members said that he was not the type of person to take part in terrorism. Delhi police have said that they are treating the explosion as terrorism. Malaysia and Thailand are searching for missing people in the Undermanned Sea to the west of their shared border. After at least two boats carrying Rohingya refugees have either sank or gone missing. There are more than a million Rohingya Muslim refugees living in refugee camps in Bangladesh after escaping violence in Myanmar. Malaysia is a common destination for those refugees to try to reach by boat despite the long dangerous journey that normally takes more than a week. Over the last few days, 12 bodies have been found in Malaysia and nine in Thailand. Thailand has announced that it has paused an ongoing ceasefire process with Cambodia after the explosion of a landmine injured four soldiers on Monday. Thailand has accused Cambodia of laying more landmines in border areas since the agreement of a ceasefire in October. In South Korea, four workers are still missing six days after part of a power plant collapsed.

Since the building collapsed last Thursday, three bodies have been recovered from the site and other workers have been rescued. Europe.

In Turkey, Mayor of Istanbul Ekrem Imamoglu is facing more than 2,000 years in jail after the public prosecutor accused Imamoglu of 142 corruption offences. Imamoglu has been in prison since March, with his party saying that this is politically motivated and an attempt to stop Imamoglu from running for president. In Poland, around 100,000 people, including President Karol Nabrodsky, took part in an Independence Day march yesterday. In Brazil, COP 30, the United Nations 30th Climate Change Conference is continuing. United States President Donald Trump, who has previously called climate change a hoax or a con job, is not traveling to Brazil. However, the Democrat governor of California Gavin Newsom is in Brazil and has spoken about the fires in Los Angeles earlier this year, how climate change is making home insurance more expensive, and he also criticized Trump for not sending any representative of the government to COP 30. Also in Brazil, a deadly police raid two weeks ago did not kill or capture the leaders of the gangs it targeted, according to Reuters news agency's Interpretation of Police reports. On the 28th of October, thousands of police and security services raided gangs in favelas in Rio de Janeiro, and at least 121 people were killed, including four police officers, according to the police, making it the deadliest raid in favelas ever. Reports say that none of the senior members of the gang Comando Vermejo were arrested or killed. And in Argentina, the city of Tandil has broken the world record for making the longest salami.
