Vatican reviews process for evaluating visions of Mary
The Vatican on Friday, May 17, 2024, overhauls its process for evaluating alleged visions of the Virgin Mary, weeping statues and other seemingly supernatural phenomena that have marked church history, putting the brakes on making definitive declarations unless the event is obviously fabricated. The Vatican’s doctrine office revised norms first issued in 1978, arguing that they were no longer useful or viable in the internet age. Nowadays, word about apparitions or weeping Madonnas travels quickly and can harm the faithful if hoaxers are trying to make money off people’s beliefs or manipulate them, the Vatican said.

Rafah a Hamas 'stronghold', Israel tells UN's top court
Israel lashes out at South Africa's case before the UN's top court, the International Court of Justice (ICJ), describing it as 'distorted' and saying Rafah is a 'stronghold' for Hamas. The comments by Israel's representatives at the ICJ come as Pretoria urged the court to order a halt to Israel's ground offensive in Rafah. The Hamas attack on Oct. 7, 2024 resulted in the death of more than 1,170 people in Israel, most of them civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official Israeli figures. Out of 252 people taken hostage that day, 128 are still being held inside the Gaza Strip, including 38 who the army says are dead.

Kim's sister denies North Korea supplied weapons to Russia
The influential sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un again denies Friday, May 17, 2024, that her country has exported any weapons to Russia, as she labeled outside speculation on North Korea-Russian arms dealings as 'the most absurd paradox.' The US, South Korea and others have accused North Korea of supplying artillery, missiles and other conventional weapons to Russia for its war in Ukraine in return for advanced military technologies and economic aid.

Russia's Putin arrives in China for state visit
Russia’s President Vladimir Putin lands Thursday, May 16, 2024, in Beijing for a two-day state visit to China, in a show of unity between the authoritarian allies as Moscow presses forward with a new offensive in Ukraine. Putin’s visit comes as Russia has become more economically dependent on China following Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine more than two years ago. On the eve of the visit, Putin said in an interview with Chinese media that the Kremlin was prepared to negotiate over the conflict in Ukraine. “We are open to a dialogue on Ukraine, but such negotiations must take into account the interests of all countries involved in the conflict, including ours,” Putin was quoted as saying by the official Xinhua News Agency.

Indonesia seeds clouds to block rainfall
Indonesian authorities seed clouds on Wednesday, May 15, 2024, trying to prevent further rain and flash floods after deluges that hit the country's Sumatra Island over the weekend left at least 59 people dead and another 16 missing. The floods swept away people and dozens of homes and submerged hundreds of houses and buildings, forcing more than 1,500 families to flee to temporary government shelters, according to National Disaster Management Agency spokesperson Abdul Muhari. Cloud seeding involves dispersing particles into clouds to create precipitation, thereby modifying the weather. National Disaster Management Agency chief Suharyanto said the aim of Wednesday's action was to redirect the rain elsewhere and keep the search operation free of downpours, which could hamper the rescuers' progress.

Expulsion from House sought for Davao Del Norte Rep. Alvarez
Tagum City Mayor Ray Uy, who filed an ethics complaint against Davao del Norte Rep. Pantaleon Alvarez, tells reporters in an ambush interview on Thursday, May 16, 2024, that he wants the case to prosper with the eventual expulsion of the lawmaker. Uy accused Alvarez of uttering 'seditious remarks' against President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. during a recent prayer rally. House Ethics Panel Chairman and Coop-NATTCO Party-list Rep. Felimon Espares said that the panel decided on additional hearings next week to determine whether Alvarez's behavior was 'disorderly.' A complaint against the lawmaker's habitual absences had been dismissed by his committee.
