On Wednesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that there are risks that powerful weapons will fall into the hands of criminal gangs and terrorists through Ukraine's black market. The West has ramped up arms supplies to Kiev since the start of the ongoing Russian special military operation in Ukraine on February 24.







Criminals in Finland have captured weapons “destined for Ukraine,” including assault rifles, the Nordic country's National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) has revealed.


NBI Detective Superintendent Christer Ahlgren said on Sunday that they “have seen signs of these weapons already finding their way to Finland."


He argued that the investigation into the matter is already underway and that routes and contacts for trafficking illegal weapons from Ukraine to Finland have been detected


"Three of the world's largest motorcycle gangs—that are part of larger international organizations—are active in Finland. One of these is Bandidos MC, which has a unit in every major Ukrainian city...,” Ahlgren said.







The NBI Detective Superintendent argued that "weapons shipped [by various countries] to Ukraine have also been found in Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands.” According to him, "Ukraine has received a large volume of weapons and that's good, but we're going to be dealing with these arms for decades and pay the price here.”


The revelation followed Russian President Vladimir Putin warning earlier this week of “serious challenges” posed by the black market for weapons operating in Ukraine, where cross-border criminal groups are actively involved in smuggling arms to other regions.


The remarks came after the European law enforcement agency Europol warned in a statement this past summer that “the proliferation of firearms and explosives in Ukraine could lead to an increase in firearms and munitions trafficked into the EU via established smuggling routes or online platforms.”


Moscow has repeatedly warned the US and its allies against providing Kiev with arms, especially against the backdrop of the ongoing Russian special military operation in Ukraine, deliveries that the Kremlin cautioned might further exacerbate the conflict.


Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov cautioned that “any weapon, [and] any arms shipment on the Ukrainian territory" would be considered “a legitimate target” by the Russian military. He also underlined that the US is “not at all neutral in this situation" and that Washington is "a party to the [Ukraine] conflict” given the US’ ongoing arms deliveries to Kiev.

Russia had to suspend its participation in the accord after Ukraine carried out a massive drone attack on Crimea and on Russian ships in the Black Sea.







Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stated on Sunday that the grain deal was disrupted by Ukraine and the UK.


"The grain deal was thwarted by Zelensky and his terrorists, who are led by British specialists, in order to add food to nuclear blackmail. They are not satisfied with (getting) money and weapons. They need more deaths. The Kiev regime rests on this hellish throne: money, weapons, death," the diplomat noted, lambasting accusations against Russia.


At the same time, Moscow noted it is ready to provide a vast amount of Russian grain to the developing nations for free. "The Kiev regime, out of its inherent greed, is too ravenous to give anything to anyone, even when others donate (the very same things)," she added.


On Saturday, Russia's MoD announced that Moscow is suspending its participation, following a series of massive drone attacks against Sevastopol, carried out by Ukraine with assistance from British specialists.


Moscow has repeatedly criticized the UN-brokered grain deal, struck in July, since the grain ended up in European countries - while the intention of the deal was to avoid a food crisis among the developing nations of the global South. In addition, Russia noted that the other side struggled to keep its end of the accord, regarding deliveries of Russian food and fertilizers.

Seoul - Shocked family members collected bodies, parents searched for children and a country sought answers on Sunday after at least 153 people were crushed to death when a crowd in South Korea surged in an alleyway during Halloween festivities.







President Yoon Suk-yeol declared a period of national mourning and designated Seoul's popular Itaewon district a disaster zone after the Saturday night disaster.


This news came like a bolt from the blue sky, said a father who burst into tears as he collected his daughter's body from a morgue in the nation's capital.


A huge crowd celebrating in Itaewon surged into an alley, killing at least 153 people, most of them in their 20s, emergency officials said, adding the death toll could rise.






The partiers, some still in their teens and many in Halloween costumes, were ready to enjoy the bars, nightclubs and restaurants where the revelry routinely spills over into narrow and often steep side streets.






Instead, the street became filled with people crying for help, while emergency workers desperately sought to free trapped bodies and perform CPR on people splayed across the debris-littered ground.


Choi Sung-beom, head of the Yongsan Fire Station, told a briefing at the scene 82 people were injured, 19 of them seriously. The deaths included 22 foreigners, he said.


Families and friends desperately sought word of loved ones at community centres turned into facilities for missing people.


At least 90% of the victims had been identified by midday, with delays affecting some foreign nationals and teenagers who did not yet have identification cards, the Interior Ministry said.


Makeshift memorials began appearing near the site, with onlookers leaving flowers and notes.







President Yoon expressed condolences to the victims and his wishes for a speedy recovery to the many injured in one of the South Korea's worst disasters and the world's worst stampedes in decades.


"This is truly tragic," he said in a statement, vowing an investigation into the cause of the disaster. "A tragedy and disaster that should not have happened took place in the heart of Seoul last night."




At least 151 deaths were confirmed with 82 people injured, 19 of them seriously.



UNRULINESS, THEN CHAOS



South Korean tech and mobile game firms including Kakao (035720.KS) and NCSOFT (036570.KS) pulled their Halloween promotions after the tragedy, while amusement park Everland cancelled Halloween-themed events. Many regional governments and organisations have cancelled or reduced festivals and other celebrations.






The crush of partygoers came as Itaewon, a symbol of freewheeling nightlife in the South Korean capital for decades that was just starting to thrive after more than two years of COVID-19 restrictions, with trendy restaurants and shops replacing seedy establishments.


It was the first Halloween event in Seoul in three years to be virtually free of COVID-19 restrictions and social distancing. Many of the partygoers were wearing masks and Halloween costumes.

Twenty-four hours before, there were already warning signs that the festivities were attracting dangerous numbers of people, and victims and their relatives questioned an apparent lack of crowd control.







Early on Sunday costumes and personal belongings mingled with blood spots in the narrow street. Survivors huddled under emergency blankets amid throngs of emergency workers, police, and media.


Many of those killed were near a nightclub, Choi said. The foreigners killed included people from China, Iran, Uzbekistan and Norway, he said.


Witnesses described the crowd becoming increasingly unruly and agitated as the evening deepened. Chaos erupted just before the 10:20 p.m. (1320 GMT) stampede, with police on hand for the event at times struggling to control the crowds, witnesses said.


Moon Ju-young, 21, said there were clear signs of trouble in the alley before the incident. He told Reuters it was more than 10 times as crowded as usual.







Social media footage showed hundreds of people packed in the narrow, sloped alley crushed and immobile as emergency officials and police tried to pull them free.


Choi, the Yongsan district fire chief, said all the deaths were likely from the crush in the alley.



MAKESHIFT MORGUE



Fire officials and witnesses said people continued to pour into the alley after it was already packed wall-to-wall, when those at the top of the slope fell, sending people below them toppling over others.


One woman said her daughter, pulled from the crush of people, survived after being trapped for more than an hour.







A makeshift morgue was set up in a building next to the scene. About four dozen bodies were wheeled out on wheeled stretchers and moved to a government facility to identify the victims, according to a Reuters witness.


The Itaewon district is popular with young South Koreans and expatriates alike, its dozens of bars and restaurants packed on Saturday for Halloween after businesses had suffered a sharp decline over three years of the pandemic.


"You would see big crowds at Christmas and fireworks... but this was several ten-folds bigger than any of that," Park Jung-hoon, 21, told Reuters from the scene.


International leaders offered condolences, including U.S. President Joe Biden and China's Xi Jinping, who noted that Chinese were among the dead and injured.


With the easing of the COVID pandemic, curfews on bars and restaurants and a limit of 10 people for private gatherings were lifted in April. An outdoor mask mandate was dropped in May.







President Yoon held an emergency meeting with senior aides and ordered a task force be set up to secure resources to treat the injured and launch a thorough investigation into the cause of the disaster.


The disaster is the country's deadliest since a 2014 ferry sinking that killed 304 people, mainly high school students.


The sinking of the Sewol, and criticism of the official response, sent shockwaves across South Korea, prompting widespread soul-searching over safety measures in the country that are likely to be renewed in the wake of Saturday's crush.

Oleh karena itu, dia meminta warga untuk rajin membersihkan halaman rumah. Serta tidak membiarkan barang-barang tak terpakai menumpuk, karena dapat mengundang hewan pengerat seperti tikus, yang menjadi satu penyebab ular masuk ke dalam rumah.


“Bogor musim ular dan selalu mengikuti ke manapun sumber makanannya pergi. Dengan begitu, cara supaya ular tidak masuk rumah ialah dengan menjaga lingkungan tetap bersih,” jelas Ridwan.

Mantan Presiden Obama diinterupsi oleh seorang pengunjuk rasa saat berkampanye dengan Gubernur Michigan Whitmer di Detroit. Pemrotes berteriak ketika dia menyerukan pejabat terpilih untuk menolak retorika yang mengancam anggota parlemen dan pekerja pemilu.







Mantan Presiden Barack Obama menghadapi ejekan selama tur lanjutannya di seluruh negeri untuk menghidupkan kembali harapan paruh waktu Demokrat memudar.


Obama, berbicara pada rapat umum untuk Gubernur Michigan Gretchen Whitmer di Detroit pada hari Sabtu, disela ketika ia berusaha untuk membahas iklim politik Amerika.






Ketika seorang pria mencoba meneriaki presiden ke-44, dia ditenggelamkan oleh kerumunan partisan yang secara bergantian mencemoohnya, bersorak, dan meneriakkan nama Obama.







Mantan presiden baru-baru ini memasuki jalur kampanye sebagai bagian dari upaya untuk memberikan dukungan publik di belakang kandidat Demokrat menjelang pemilihan paruh waktu yang akan berlangsung pada 8 November.


Mantan Presiden AS Barack Obama membalas ejekan selama pidato yang dia buat pada hari Sabtu saat berkampanye untuk kandidat Demokrat dan Gubernur Gretchen Whitmer menjelang pemilihan paruh waktu November.


Mantan Presiden AS itu berbicara kepada si pencemooh: "Ayo, ini yang saya maksud, kita sedang berbicara. Saat ini, saya sedang berbicara, Anda akan memiliki kesempatan untuk berbicara nanti."


Pengejek itu akhirnya dikawal keluar dari gedung oleh keamanan saat Obama melanjutkan pidatonya.







Kerumunan di sekolah menengah kota Michigan Detroit menjadi liar, berteriak, "Ajari dia, Barack!" bersama dengan berbagai teriakan yang mengarahkan pencemooh untuk "keluar" setelah mantan presiden memarahi salah satu pencemooh karena kurangnya "keadaban dasar" pada Sabtu malam.


Obama kembali ke jalur kampanye pada rapat umum Jumat malam di luar Atlanta, di mana dia mengejek Partai Republik karena tetap setia kepada mantan Presiden Donald Trump dan mengejek pilihan mereka terhadap kandidat Senat Georgia, Herschel Walker.


"Hampir setiap politisi Republik tampaknya terobsesi dengan dua hal - memiliki libs dan mendapatkan persetujuan Donald Trump," kata mantan presiden di Gateway Center Arena di College Park, Georgia. 'Ini tidak rumit. Dan, setidaknya bagi saya, itu tidak terlalu menginspirasi.'


Tugas Obama adalah untuk mendukung kampanye Senator Demokrat Raphael Warnock, yang bersaing ketat melawan Walker, dan calon gubernur Stacey Abrams, yang membuntuti Gubernur Republik incumbent Brian Kemp.

Keputusan tepat yang diambil Polres Metro Jakarta Pusat, Festival musik Berdendang Bergoyang di Istora Senayan, Jakarta Pusat, Sabtu malam, 29/10/2022, dihentikan.







Kapolres Metro Jakarta Pusat menyebutkan ada dua alasan kenapa Festival musik “Berdendang Bergoyang” dihentikan, yaitu pengunjung konser di lokasi konser melebihi kapasitas serta panitia melanggar waktu penyelengaraan konser yang diizinkan dan fasilitas Kesehatan Tak Lengkap.


Polisi dari Polres Metro Jakarta Pusat telah melakukan interogasi panitia pelaksana festival musik bertajuk Berdendang Bergoyang pada hari Minggu dini hari, 30/10/2022. Pemeriksaan itu dilaksanakan di Mapolres Metro Jakarta Pusat, bilangan Kemayoran.


"Saat ini (panitia) masih kami interogasi, status masih interogasi. Artinya dalam penyelidikan," ujar Kepala Kepolisian Resor Jakarta Pusat Kombes (Pol) Komarudin kepada wartawan.


"Dari fakta di lapangan, kami cek memang sangat penuh kondisi di Istora, dengan layout panggung dan sebagainya," ujar Komarudin







"Kegiatan Berdendang Bergoyang terpaksa kami hentikan karena over kapasitas dan membahayakan penonton," kata Komarudin.


Komarudin mengatakan, menurut laporan anak buahnya yang bertugas di lapangan, banyak penonton yang pingsan karena berdesak-desakan.


Namun, ia belum menyebut jumlah pasti penonton yang pingsan.


"Temuan kami kemarin juga panitia hanya menyiapkan satu tenda kesehatan. Penonton banyak minta bantuan kesehatan karena banyak yang pingsan," ujar Komarudin.



Polisi Pastikan Tidak Ada yang Meninggal dalam Kejadian di Festival Musik Berdendang Bergoyang



Kapolres Metro Jakarta Pusat Komisaris Besar Komarudin memastikan tidak ada korban meninggal dalam acara itu.


“Alhamdulillah tidak ada. Ini yang kita antisipasi,” kata Komarudin, hari Minggu, 30/10/2022)l.


Festival musik semula akan diselenggarakan dari hari Jumat, 28/10/2022, sampai hari Minggu, 30/10/2022. Polisi meminta penghentian acara pada hari ketiga.


Petugas menyebut ada beberapa hal yang dilanggar dalam penyelenggaraan acara.


“Penemuan di hari pertama itu dari surat keramaian yang diijinkan dari Polres Jakpus dengan jumlah undangan penonton sampai dengan 3.000. Sementara dihari pertama itu pengunjung tembus di angka 20.000 lebih,” kata Komarudin.


Komarudin menambahkan hanya ada satu posko medis berukuran 3x3 meter, yang diisi oleh lima petugas, padahal di sana terdapat lima panggung acara.


“Kami menemukan antrian orang-orang yang memang membutuhkan bantuan tenaga medis,” katanya.


Penghentian acara diperkuat dengan adanya imbauan dari Polda Metro Jaya yang menyebut konser bisa dilanjutkan bila jumlah panggung dikurangi dan petugas medis ditambah serta ada pembatasan jumlah penonton.


Tapi syarat tersebut dinilai tidak dipenuhi oleh panitia. Jumlah penonton tercatat pada pukul 21.00 WIB mencapai 21.500 orang.


Penonton di pelataran Istora Senayan berusaha masuk ke dalam, meski kapasitas di dalam sudah tidak mencukupi dan kemudian sejumlah penonton pingsan.


“Kita melihat tanda-tanda potensi keselamatan sehingga dengan sangat terpaksa kita hentikan,” kata Komarudin.

Russia Monitoring US Nuclear Doctrine Amid Increasing Threat of Nukes Use, Deputy FM Says

Russia is closely monitoring the development of US doctrinal documents and is concerned over their "vague wording" as well as over an increase in the number of possible scenarios that allow the use of nuclear weapons, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko told Sputnik on Saturday.







On Thursday, the US Defense Department published the Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) and noted the document reaffirms that the fundamental role of US nuclear weapons is to deter nuclear attack on the United States, its allies and partners.


According to the NPR, the US would only consider using nuclear weapons in extreme circumstances to defend its vital interests and that of its allies and partners.


"I can say that we are monitoring very closely, both militarily and politically, the development of the strategies of the Western nuclear countries, including the United Kingdom, France, and the United States. We are also monitoring what is happening with the means of delivery and with these weapons," Grushko said.


The official also said that the formulations used in the US nuclear doctrines are "vague," and that a number of possible scenarios which allow the use of nuclear weapons is increasing, adding that the same idea applies to the French nuclear strategy.







"Our (Russian) military doctrine and corresponding documents on the use of nuclear weapons are very precise and do not allow any double interpretations. It says that, outside of a nuclear conflict, nuclear armament can be used only if there is a threat to the country's existence. That is it. This is an absolutely clear criterion," Grushko added.


Arms Control Association Executive Director Daryl Kimball said that the US has sent an "ambiguous message" to the world with its new NPR at a time when there is an apparent demand to de-emphasize the salience of nuclear weapons and the threat of their employment in a potential conflict.
