China warns citizens against travel to Japan
BEIJING — China has warned its citizens against traveling to Japan as tensions escalate following remarks by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi regarding the island of Taiwan. The move marks Beijing’s most substantive retaliation yet, signaling its willingness to leverage economic influence in response to geopolitical disputes. In a statement Friday, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said “blatantly provocative remarks on Taiwan” had “further damaged the atmosphere for people-to-people exchanges,” creating additional risks for Chinese citizens in Japan. The ministry urged Chinese nationals to “refrain from visiting Japan for the time being.” State broadcaster CCTV reported that major Chinese airlines, including Air China, China Eastern and China Southern, offered ticket...

Nine killed, 27 injured in accidental blast at police station in Srinagar
NEW DELHI — Nine people were killed and 27 others injured in an accidental explosion at the Nowgam police station in Srinagar, Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir, officials said on Saturday. The late-night blast on Friday occurred while authorities were handling a large cache of confiscated explosives.

Among the victims were three members of the Forensic Science Laboratory, two officials from the Revenue Department, two police photographers, an officer from the State Investigation Agency, and a tailor. The 27 injured were transported to nearby hospitals for treatment. Authorities have opened an investigation into the incident. —...

Explosions at Buenos Aires industrial complex injure 15 and disrupt flights
BUENOS AIRES — Powerful explosions rocked an industrial complex outside the Argentine capital on Friday night, injuring at least 15 people and triggering a massive fire that firefighters struggled to bring under control, officials said. “The explosions and fire breaking out in the different factories are huge,” Ezeiza Mayor Gaston Granados told AFP. “We are trying to control it and extinguish it but have not been able to so far.” Authorities said the injured were taken to local hospitals, with most suffering burns or injuries from shattered glass caused by the shock wave. Thick smoke affected visibility across the area, forcing several flights bound for Ministro Pistarini International Airport — Argentina’s main international gateway — to be delayed or diverted.

Trump says he prevented a war between Thailand and Cambodia
WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump said Friday that he prevented renewed conflict between Thailand and Cambodia—violence he described would have derailed a fragile peace he helped broker. "I stopped a war in Thailand, in Cambodia," Trump told reporters on Air Force One, after initially declining to specify which conflict he was referring to. "That war would have been very costly in terms of lives, but even costly in terms of us." Trump said he threatened both Southeast Asian nations with tariffs, repeating his long-held argument that tariff authority is essential for maintaining leverage in international disputes. The remarks come as the US Supreme Court reviews a challenge to the president’s authority to impose tariffs globally. Tensions flared earlier this week when one...

BJP supporters celebrate in Patna, Bihar's capital
Modi's alliance heads for decisive win in key Indian state election
PATNA — Supporters of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) are celebrating as the party-led alliance heads for a decisive win in India's northern state of Bihar.Counting began at 08:00 local time [02:30 GMT] and although results have just started trickling in, the alliance is leading in nearly 200 of the 243 seats.As counting progresses, results can change in some seats, but it's unlikely that the opposition — ahead in less than 40 seats — can claw its way back into the reckoning.The polls were held after a controversial revision of rolls that the opposition alleged would exclude genuine voters and give BJP an edge — a charge both the party and Election Commission denied.Polls were held on 6 and 11 November and the state registered a record...

Dozens of Australian and NZ schools shut over asbestos risk in children's sand
SYDNEY — Dozens of schools and preschools across Australia and New Zealand have been fully or partially closed after a warning over asbestos risks in children's sand.A recall notice for the coloured products, which were found to contain traces of tremolite asbestos, was issued by the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) on Wednesday.The regulator said there was a "low" risk that the asbestos could become airborne or fine enough for inhalation, but it "may still pose a risk".New Zealand's Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) has also urged people to stop using the sand and arrange for safe disposal "through licensed professionals".On Friday, at least 15 schools and seven preschools in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) — where Canberra is...

California revokes 17,000 commercial driver’s licenses for immigrants
SAN FRANCISCO — California plans to revoke 17,000 commercial driver’s licenses given to immigrants after discovering the expiration dates went past when the drivers were legally allowed to be in the US, the Associated Press reported.The announcement follows harsh criticism from the Trump administration about California and other states granting licenses to people in the country illegally. The issue was thrust into the public’s consciousness in August, when a tractor-trailer driver not authorized to be in the US made an illegal U-turn and caused a crash in Florida that killed three people.Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said Wednesday that California’s action to revoke these licenses is an admission that the state acted improperly even though it previously defended its licensing...
