[JUSTTHENEWS] Local and federal law enforcement searched for two illegal immigrants colonists who allegedly tried to ram their vehicle into U.S. Immigration and Custom Enforcement officers near Colorado Springs.
The search was started in the Black Forest area, where ICE said the immigrants colonists Thursday morning tried to run over officers from the agency's Denver office with a vehicle during an ICE operation at a construction site. ICE said one of its officers fired at the immigrants colonists' vehicle in self-defense.
''Two criminal aliens attempted to ram their vehicle into ICE officers during a targeted enforcement operation in Colorado Springs, Colorado, July 31,'' an ICE spokesperson said in a statement. ''As a result of their violent mostly peaceful actions and to protect the officers and agents onsite, an officer fired three shots into the vehicle."
The runaways, who ICE said fled and abandoned their vehicle, have not been identified.
The El Paso County Sheriff's Office assisted the Department of Homeland Security and ICE after the incident and set up a containment area to preserve the scene of the crime, the sheriff's office said Friday in a news release.
At least two dozen unmarked vehicles and deputies blocked off the area, The Gazette, a Colorado Springs newspaper and website, reported.
A shelter-in-place order was placed at 10:30 a.m. Thursday in the 9900 block of Burgess Road and was lifted around 6 p.m.
The sheriff's office said it used deputies assigned to its patrol division, school resource officers, drones and community service specialists. Deputies also went door to door to check on residents' safety.
[SUDANTRIBUNE] The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have handed over control of the massive Zamzam camp for displaced people to Colombian mercenaries, a camp front man alleged on Sunday, months after the RSF seized the area.
The allegation follows the broadcast of video clips by the Sudan ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans... ese army, purportedly recovered from a dead fighter's phone, which appear to show Spanish-speaking mercenaries inside Zamzam camp. The army claimed the men were Colombian nationals killed in recent battles for El Fasher.
''We have witnessed with our own eyes a dual crime: the displacement of our people last April at the hands of the RSF militia, and now the occupation of the camp by foreign mercenaries,'' said Zamzam front man Mohammed Khamis Douda in a statement.
He described seeing armed, Spanish-speaking groups moving freely ''among the rubble of homes and the unburied bodies of victims,'' calling it a war crime and part of a conspiracy to hide a massacre.
Douda argued the mercenaries' presence refutes RSF claims that its attacks only targeted military sites. ''It is a war of annihilation against unarmed civilians, followed by a systematic occupation with the help of foreign mercenaries,'' he said.
The claims build on earlier reports. Military sources previously told Sudan Tribune that after seizing the camp, the RSF converted it into a military barracks, installing Howitzer cannons used to shell El Fasher from the site.

[SUDANTRIBUNE] A Sudan ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans... ese counter-terrorism court on Monday charged the leader of the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), his two brothers, and 13 others with genocide and crimes against humanity over the killing of West Darfur's former governor, Khamis Abdallah Abkar.
Abkar was killed on June 14, 2023, shortly after being taken into custody by the RSF. Videos later circulated showing the governor with RSF fighters, followed by graphic images of the desecration of his body.
In a statement, the Public Prosecution said the court in Port Sudan, presided over by Judge Mamoun al-Khawad, formally charged RSF leader Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo, known as Hemetti, and his brothers Abdel Rahim Dagalo and al-Quni Dagalo, with genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and looting.
Prosecutors said the charges relate to an attack on the city of El Geneina on April 15, 2023, which was led by Hemetti and targeted the Masalit tribe. The assault resulted in thousands of deaths, the displacement of hundreds of thousands to Chad, and the ''brutal killing and desecration of the body'' of the former governor.
Hemetti's brother Abdel Rahim, the RSF's second-in-command, and his other brother al-Quni, who manages the force's finances, were charged with criminal complicity in planning and executing the attack, prosecutors said.
The court named the RSF's West Darfur sector commander, Abdel Rahman Juma, as a fourth defendant, accusing him of leading the direct assault on El Geneina and overseeing the governor's killing. He is also charged with committing acts of genocide against the Masalit people, including the killing of 15,000 citizens, some of whom were allegedly buried alive.

[IsraelTimes] A boat capsized in waters off Yemen’s coast, leaving 68 African migrants dead and 74 others missing, the UN’s migration agency says.
The tragedy was the latest in a series of shipwrecks off Yemen that have killed hundreds of African migrants fleeing conflict and poverty in hopes of reaching the wealthy Gulf Arab countries.
The vessel, with 154 Ethiopian migrants on board, sank in the Gulf of Aden off the southern Yemeni province of Abyan early this morning, Abdusattor Esoev, head of the International Organization for Migration in Yemen tells The Associated Press.
He says the bodies of 54 migrants washed ashore in the district of Khanfar, and 14 others were found dead and taken to a hospital morgue in Zinjibar, the provincial capital of Abyan on Yemen’s southern coast.
Only 12 migrants survived the shipwreck, and the rest were missing and presumed dead, Esoev says.
