The landslide occurred in Hpakant, a remote mountainous town in Kachin state about 600 miles north of Myanmar’s biggest city, Yangon.
The area is the epicenter of the world’s biggest and most lucrative jade mines.
Earth and debris from several mines near the town slid down a cliff into a lake below sweeping more than 30 miners into the water, a rescue official said Monday.

Ready for War? 🇰🇵’s Kim Jong Un Demands Ramping Up of Missiles Ahead of 🇰🇷,🇺🇸Drills
The North Korean supreme leader gave the order as he visited key munitions factories that produce tactical missiles, launch platforms, armoured vehicles and artillery shells.
Kim called for the increase to help secure “overwhelming military power,” state media KCNA said Monday – the rallying call comes as South Korea and the US gear up for annual military drills which they have dubbed as the “largest scale ever.”
Pyongyang has denounced the allies' military exercises as a rehearsal for nuclear war.

Russia Takes Advantage of Billion-Dollar Oil Cap Loophole 💲
Inflated shipping costs enables Russian companies to earn far more from crude oil sales to India than previously recognised, the FT reports – charges are thought to have raised more than $1bn in a single quarter.
The price cap imposed by the G7 - which was intended to keep 🇷🇺 oil flowing while squeezing revenues – does not apply any limit on freight costs.
🇷🇺’s Baltic ports sell oil for $50 per barrel – in line with the cap - while Indian customs data shows a purchase price of $68 per barrel…😂
🇮🇳 now accounts for around 25% of Russia’s crude and refined oil exports.

Heavy rainfall continues to pound the neighboring states, with landslides blocking key roads, washing away bridges and causing water levels of rivers to swell.
Devastating footage shows vehicles being washed away and houses destroyed by the monsoon rains.

🇦🇷: Argentine Right-Wing Outsider Posts Shock Win in Primary Election
The country’s two main political forces were left lagging in a primary election Sunday, as voters pushed a rock-singing libertarian outsider candidate into first place in a huge shake-up in the race towards presidential elections in October.
Right-wing economist Javier Milei had 30.5% of the vote, far higher than predicted, with the main conservative opposition bloc behind on 28% and the ruling Peronist coalition in third place on 27%.
The result is a stinging rebuke to the centre-left Peronist coalition and the main Together for Change conservative opposition bloc with inflation currently at an eye-watering 116%.
Voting in the primaries is obligatory in 🇦🇷 and usually gives a clear indication of who is the favourite to win the presidency.

The 🇬🇧Foreign Office cautioned: “Terrorists are very likely to try and carry out attacks in Sweden. You should maintain a high level of vigilance in public spaces.”
“Attacks could be indiscriminate, including in places frequented by foreigners.”
Protesters have been burning the holy book over what they claim is rampant immigration in Sweden and Turkey’s repression of Kurdish minorities.

💩 While Hawaii Burns, Biden Chills
As the death toll rose to 96, Joe was relaxed on Rehoboth beach. When a reporter asked him for a comment on the spiralling death count, he simply replied, "no comment."
Now image the media outrage if Trump played golf while Maui burned...

The right-wing AfD is currently polling at 21% - making it the second biggest party in 🇩🇪 at present.
So, what happens when the establishment is losing ground?
🇩🇪 MSM is currently running headlines such as “Ban the Enemies of the Constitution” and warning readers about the “radicalised” AfD.
The argument of tyrants?
