North Korean leader Kim supervises tests of cruise missiles designed to be fired from submarines

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un supervised test firings of new cruise missiles designed to be launched from submarines and also reviewed efforts to build a nuclear-powered submarine while reiterating his goal of building a nuclear-armed navy to counter what he portrays as growing external threats, state media said Monday. The report came a day after South Korea's military said it detected North Korea firing multiple cruise missiles over waters near the eastern port of Sinpo, where the North has a major shipyard developing submarines. It was the latest in a streak of weapons demonstrations by North Korea amid increasing tensions with the United States, South Korea and Japan. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un inspects what North Korea says is the test firing. The content of ...

Russian courts jail a Putin critic and a woman convicted of a blast that killed a pro-war blogger

A Russian court on Thursday sentenced a woman to 27 years in prison for a cafe blast that killed a prominent pro-war blogger after he was given a bust of himself that later exploded. In a separate proceeding, a Moscow court convicted a former leader of separatist rebels in Ukraine who called President Vladimir Putin a coward of extremism and sentenced him to four years. Darya Trepova, 26, was convicted by a court in St. Petersburg of carrying out a terrorist attack, illegal trafficking of explosive devices and forging documents in the April 2 blast at the cafe in which Vladlen Tatarsky was killed and 52 others were injured. Tatarsky, 40, was an ardent supporter of the Kremlin's military action in Ukraine and filed regular reports on the fighting from the front lines. ...

Bidding to start at less than $1 for this oceanfront property

If you're after an affordable seaside property with great views, no immediate neighbours, and within walking distance of a shop and pub, and you don't much mind the occasional wave or two sweeping through, this New Zealand land block could be just the spot. Number 7 Clifton Road at Haumoana, Hawke's Bay, on the country's North Island, is up for auction with a reserve of just NZ$1 (93 Australian cents). Architect Andy Coltart has owned the property and another one nearby for more than five years and had harboured aspirations of one day starting a seaside restaurant, but after years of dreaming he has come to the sad realisation that the plan won't pass the "sanity test". In short, the odds of getting all the various permits and consents required to get his dream off the...

New Hampshire primary: Donald Trump beats Nikki Haley as he moves closer to Republican presidential nomination

Donald Trump has won the New Hampshire primary, tightening his grip on the Republican presidential nomination and bolstering the likelihood of a rematch later this year against President Joe Biden. The result was a setback for former UN ambassador Nikki Haley, who invested significant time and financial resources into winning the state. She was the last major challenger in the race after Florida Governor Ron DeSantis ended his presidential bid over the weekend, allowing her to campaign as the sole alternative to Trump. Haley intensified her criticism of the former president, questioning his mental acuity and pitching herself as a unifying candidate who would usher in generational change. The appeals failed to resonate with enough voters. Trump can now boast of being the first R...

‘It’s not safe’: Police block off Auckland’s Albert Park over ‘concerning comments’

Police say the incident in an Auckland park where a person made "made a number of concerning comments" has been resolved.

US election 2024: Ron DeSantis ends presidential campaign and endorses Donald Trump

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who entered the Republican presidential primary as Donald Trump's greatest threat, has announced that he is ending his White House bid and endorsing the former president. His announcement, made in a video posted on X, comes after a disappointing second-place finish in last week's Iowa Republican caucuses. "If there was anything I could do to produce a favourable outcome, more campaign stops, more interviews, I would do it, but I can't ask our supporters to volunteer their time and donate their resources if we don't have a clear path to victory. Accordingly, I am today suspending my campaign," DeSantis said. He then touted his support for Trump: "While, I've had disagreements with Donald Trump, such as on the coronavirus pandemic and his e...
