The veil of charm falls down, causing people to abandon their pets — and unfortunately, this happens often and is a cruel statistic nowadays.

EU to extend sanctions against Syria despite COVID-19 pandemic

BEIRUT, LEBANON (3:00 P.M.) – European Union officials have confirmed their intention to extend sanctions against the Syrian government, despite the COVID-19 outbreak across the world. A high-ranking European official told reporters in Brussels on Wednesday that extending the sanctions against the Syrian government “will send a strong message that the current approach, which includes violence, the deterioration of the humanitarian situation and the use of chemical weapons, is totally unacceptable,” the TASS News Agency reported. The official, whose identity was not revealed, again called for a political solution to the conflict in Syria. Another official from the European Union’s Foreign Affairs Authority said, “The sanctions will be extended soon.” During the 73rd session of the World Health Assembly, the Syrian Minister of Health, Nizar Yazigi, announced that “harsh and unjust” U.S. and European sanctions hinder efforts to combat the spread of the coronavirus in Syria.

BEIRUT, LEBANON (5:30 P.M.) – The Russian Air Force was seen all over the western countryside of the Idlib Governorate on Wednesday, as their jets buzzed areas like Jisr al-Shughour along the Turkish border. According to a field report from the Idlib Governorate, the Russian Air Force was flying over areas under the control of the hardline militant groups like the Turkestan Islamic Party (TIP), Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS), and Hurras Al-Deen. Some opposition activists claimed that the Russian Air Force launched airstrikes; however, a Syrian Arab Army (SAA) source said there were no recorded attacks. At the same time, the Syrian Arab Army launched their own attack over the Idlib countryside, targeting the movements of the jihadist rebels and Turkish-backed groups.

Russia flexes might to send message to US, NATO that Syria’s coast is a no-fly-zone

BEIRUT, LEBANON (6:00 P.M.) – The Russian military is no longer tolerating U.S flights near the Syrian coast, as they have now intercepted at least three American planes in the eastern Mediterranean over the last 90 days. According to a Syrian military source in Damascus, the Russian Armed Forces previously tolerated the U.S.’ flights along the boundaries of Syria’s airspace, but given their repeated attempts to test the radar and air defense systems at the Hmeimim Airbase, the Russian Federation believes it is important to remind the Americans that they are not free to operate in these areas. The source pointed out that prior to the recent interception by the Russian Air Force, the U.S. Navy had conducted several flights near Syrian airspace in the month of May. When the Russian Air Force’s S-35 jets intercepted two U.S. P-8A Poseidon military aircraft in the eastern Mediterranean, the American planes were not seen in this region for several days.

RBZ increases gold retention threshold

THE Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) has increased the gold retention threshold to 70 percent in foreign currency for sale proceeds from the previous 55 percent in a move aimed at boosting production in the sector. Under the new gold trading framework, it means gold producers will now receive 30 percent of their gold sale proceeds to Fidelity Printers and Refiners (FPR) in local currency. FPR is the country’s sole gold buyer and operates under the purview of the Central Bank. In a statement, FPR general manager Mr Fradreck Kunaka said the new gold trading framework was with effect from yesterday. “Gold producers shall be paid under a 70/30 payment arrangement scheme in terms of which 70 percent of the gold sale proceeds shall be paid into the producer’s Nostro account and the balance of 30 percent shall be paid in local currency at the ruling exchange rate into the producer’s ZW$ account,” he said. Under the new framework, small-scale gold buying agents and artisanal producers shall be paid in cash at a flat price…

COMMENT: Africa’s collaboration in fight against Covid-19 commendable

THE 57th anniversary of Africa Day on Monday came at a time the continent and the entire world is grappling with Covid-19 and its effects it has had on the lives of the people as well as its economic impact on nations. Since the outbreak of the virus, African states have come together to share strategies on how to curb the spread of the virus and also on mitigation measures on the economies of the continent affected by virus. To date, more than 100 000 Covid-19 cases have been recorded across Africa with 40 000 recoveries and 3 000 deaths. Various meetings have been held between AU Heads of State and Government and a number of stakeholders including African business leaders and chairpersons of the regional economic communities (RECs) among others in a bid to come up with fortified responses to Covid-19. As a result of those interactions, AU chairperson and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has appointed Zimbabwean billionaire Mr Strive Masiyiwa to coordinate a private sector-led continental effort to procure…

Barbourfields Stadium still far from meeting Caf standards

BARBOURFIELDS Stadium is still far from meeting the Caf minimum standards, with the size of dressing rooms a mere 10 percent of the required Fifa measurements. According to Fifa, a standard dressing room must be 240 square metres, but Barbourfields Stadium’s dressing rooms are just 35 square metres. A preliminary inspection by a member of the First Instance Body (FIB) Xolisani Gwesela, Sports and Recreation Commission (SRC) Bulawayo coordinator Sam Dzvimbu and Bulawayo City Council officials led by the stadium projects manager Thembinkosi Ncube showed that while work on the facility had started, it was at a tortoise’s pace probably due to the national lockdown as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The media tribune, a key area in terms of Fifa standards, is yet to be fitted with chairs and desks, with the only notable change being the power sockets that have been installed. The press conference room has six installed speakers, while one of the three commentary boxes have a walled plasma television set. All the…

First Mutual Life records investment loss

FIRST Mutual Life Holdings Limited has recorded an investment loss amounting to $392,8 million in the full year ended December 31, 2019 due to a decrease in value of equities listed on the stock exchange. In a statement accompanying financial results for the period under review, the group indicated that its total assets also declined by two percent compared to December 31, 2018. “The group had an investment loss of $392,8 million for the period under review compared to investment income of $207 million in 2018. “The loss was driven by decline in value on ZSE (Zimbabwe Stock Exchange) listed equities as the market index grew at a slower rate than inflation,” said the group. It attributed the decline in total assets to the loss of value on listed equities, the Zimbabwe dollar denominated bank balances and accounts receivables.

Motorists shun forex fuel

MOTORISTS in Bulawayo are shunning service stations which sell fuel in foreign currency and opting to fill their tanks from those charging in local currency as the exchange rate continues to shoot through the roof on the parallel market. Service stations selling in local currency are now three times cheaper than those charging in foreign currency, forcing some forex service stations to reduce their prices. As of yesterday, the exchange rate at the parallel market was US$1:ZW$60 via electronic transfers and US$1:45 for cash transactions. At selected service stations visited by a Chronicle news crew, forex fuel stations were selling petrol for between US$1,05 and US$1,25 while diesel was going for between US$1 and US$1,13. Those trading in local currency were charging between $21,76 and $23,30 for petrol while diesel was being sold for $21,59 and $22,55. Our news crew observed yesterday that there were long winding queues at most service stations selling the commodity in local currency.

FARMERS in parts of drought hit Midlands province have started disposing off their cattle as pastures decline due to the poor rains experienced in the 2019/2020 season. Communal farmers in areas like Gokwe North and South, Mberengwa and Chirumhanzu have been selling their cattle at below market price saying they cannot afford buying expensive stockfeed. The raging inflationary pressures and disruption of productive value chains, have deepened the plight of farmers.  Midlands crop and livestock production provincial officer, Mrs Medlinah Magwenzi, acknowledged the development and encouraged farmers to preserve feed for livestock in order to curb livestock deaths.

AFRICAN and global philanthropists have teamed up to help African nations secure urgently needed ventilators, breathing support devices and other medical equipment, in the battle against the Covid-19 pandemic. Prominent Zimbabwean business man, Mr Strive Masiyiwa, also co-founder of Higherlife Foundation, who has recently been appointed as an African Union Special Envoy to mobilise the private sector response to Covid-19, is leading a private partnership to start local manufacturing of the equipment.

On Why Welfare Reform Has No Champions In Parliament

Ever since Victorian times, the unemployed have been a problem for those more fortunate, wealthy and powerful. Down the ages, society has been torn between providing for them as victims of misfortune, or dealing to them as the shiftless agents of their own condition. Either way, the poor are commonly regarded as The Other – as a group of outsiders gathered pitifully, reproachfully, or (depending on your POV) threateningly at the gates of polite society.

Ego Trip: US Space Flags And Super-Duper Missiles

US President Donald Trump is much taken with the bombastic and the exaggerated. In an interview with the Associated Press in April 2017, he spoke of his infamous if somewhat less than successful wall project on the US-Mexican border. Ever happy to stretch the record on costs, he took issue with those “opponents talking $25 billion for the wall. It’s not going to cost anywhere near that.” Resembling that noisy relative who boasts about getting a cheaper deal for you on anything from car insurance to white goods, the president was confident: “I think $10 billion or less. And if I do a super-duper, higher, better, better security, everything else, maybe it goes a little bit more.”
