UN resolution ‘aggressive’ says Tripoli
Tripoli says the UN decision to back a no-fly zone over the country is an invitation for “Libyans to kill each other.” The Libyan army says it will surround, but not enter the city of Benghazi. It is reported that Gaddafi’s forces plan to send in snatch squads to disarm rebels. State media say military operations will cease on Sunday to allow opposition forces to hand over weapons under a general amnesty. Khaled Kaim, the country’s deputy foreign minister, said: “Actually regarding the ceasefire we told the Secretary General of the United Nations that the armed forces, that we are ready immediately to do that, but we need to talk to someone to talk about the technicalities of this decision.” Do you agree with the UN resolution authorising military action in Libya?

No-fly zone ‘necessary to avoid more bloodshed’
The European Union has welcomed the UN resolution, and says it is ready to put it into practice. But diplomats say there are no plans for the EU itself to take part in any bombing, or operations to impose a no-fly zone. Among individual countries, Britain might do so, although it is not saying when action might take place. It has poured cold water on suggestions that planes could strike “within hours”. “It is necessary to take these measures to avoid greater bloodshed, to try to stop what is happening in terms of civilians on the people of Libya,” said the UK’s Foreign Secretary, William Hague. Italy has said it is ready to make its military bases available to enforce a no-fly zone. But the EU is not united. Germany’s opposition to military intervention has brought warnings of isolation – and some unwelcome praise from Colonel Gaddafi. By abstaining, Berlin has broken ranks with London and Paris. The German foreign minister Guido Westerwelle has said the country did so because it saw “considerable dangers and risks” in military action.

Oil prices slip on Libyan peace efforts
Oil prices came off their recent highs on Thursday after Venezuela said its proposal for a negotiated solution to the Libyan conflict was accepted by the North African government the Arab League said it was under consideration. But a leader of the uprising against Muammar Gaddafi’s rule said he would reject any plan for talks with Gaddafi and analysts and traders remained sceptical over the prospect of any immediate end to fighting. Industry officials have estimated the anti-Gaddafi uprising has reduced Libya’s oil production by around half as most foreign oil workers had fled. In the key oil port of Brega, euronews correspondent Francesca Cicardi said attacks continue: “This morning (Thursday) Gaddafi’s people bombed around the oil terminal, but not the installations themselves as that could cause major explosions which would be very dangerous. That’s why it is safe in this area. We’re told that the terminal is not operating at the moment.” Analysts said they were worried about damage to Libya’s oil infrastructure as a result of the fighting and they remain focused on the possibility of the unrest spreading to places like Algeria or even Saudi Arabia.

Protests grow in Yemen
Hundreds of anti-government demonstrators have marched through the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, to call on President Ali Abdullah Saleh to step down. Witnesses said police fired shots in the air but it remains unclear if they made any arrests. It marks the fourth day of protests against Saleh’s 32-year rule. He says he will quit in 2013 but has broken similar promises in the past. The protesters also accuse him of failing to tackle unemployment and improve living standards. Yemen is the Arab world’s most impoverished country. Over 40 percent of its citizens live on less than one and a half euros a day. There were a handful of pro-Saleh demonstrators, who fought the protesters near Sanaa’s Al-Tahrir Square. Human Rights Watch says the Yemeni government has hired armed mobs in a bid to quell the unrest.

Diplomatic and military pressure builds against Gaddafi
The international response to the Libyan crisis is becoming a two pronged attack – on one hand diplomatic pressure has been intensified, with the United Nations unanimously suspending Libya’s membership of the UN’s Human Rights Council. Read our news file United Nations Secretary-General, Ban Ki-Moon told the Assembly: “The world has spoken with one voice: we demand an immediate end to the violence against civilians and full respect for their fundamental human rights, including those of peaceful assembly and free speech.” The other approach is a flexing of military muscle by both NATO and the US due to fears that this – the most violent of the recent Arab revolts – may grow bloodier if Gaddafi doesn’t soon quit. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, speaking to the House of Foreign Affairs Committee, said: “We have also with NATO allies and with the Pentagon begun to look at potential planning, preparedness in the event that we feel it’s necessary for both humanitarian and other reasons that there would have to be actions taken. One of those actions that is under review is a no-fly zone.” Three US military ships have now passed through the Suez Canal towards the Libyan coast. As yet their deployment is only for a possible humanitarian effort, but that could change.

New Zealand quake toll rises as hopes fade for survivors
In New Zealand a fresh attempt is being made to find survivors from Tuesday’s deadly earthquake in Christchurch. A team from Britain is joining others from Australia, Japan, the United States and Taiwan in search and rescue efforts. But cold weather is dimming hopes of finding any more people alive. Much of the country’s second largest city resembles a war zone. It is now known that 113 people died but that figure is expected to rise with more than 200 others still missing. A return to normality is too far off to envisage for many but some have been trying to resume their lives. Earthquake survivor Emma Howard escaped unharmed from a collapsed building after being trapped for six hours and was able to wed her fianc?� Chris Greenslade as planned.

Italy calls for EU to share migrant burden
Italy is urging other European countries to take a greater share of the immigrants pouring across from North Africa. The tiny island of Lampedusa is just south of Sicily. It is only 150 kilometres from the Tunisian coast and has borne the brunt of the flood of refugees. The government says 15 thousand have entered Italy since the start of the year and numbers have surged as the turmoil in North Africa grows. Locals complain bitterly of being abandoned by Rome. One women told reporters that locals are not angry with the refugees as it is not their fault, but they are angry with the government who do nothing. That anger has spilled over into protest, as inhabitants fathered on the dock to prevent the unloading of a ship carrying equipment to build a tent city to house the refugees. It is now estimated migrants outnumber the Italian inhabitants of Lampedusa.

Japanese elderly bear brunt of tsunami’s force
Katsuo Maiya is 73 and his wife Masako 67. They are looking for her 71-year-old sister Taeko Kanno and Kanno’s husband. They rushed from their home in the hills when the tsunami surged into Rikuzentakata, only to find the town had become a muddy wasteland with barely a building standing. It is obvious from their faces and body language, as well as the devastation, that there is no hope of finding them alive. The missing couple were spotted trying to flee the wave on foot, but they were too slow to keep up with their neighbours. The earthquake and tsunami took their heaviest toll among the elderly. Many survivors are still in danger, even those in temporary shelters. Doctors have seen cases of hypothermia, serious dehydration and respiratory diseases. Kenji Furuuchi, 55, an official from the town of Kawaguchi, drove mostly elderly villagers to an evacuation facility in Koriyama. “Some have been in shelters for a rather long time, four or five days,” he said, “and I think they are getting tired. And now quite a lot of fatigue awaits them at this one.” Almost a quarter of Japan’s population is aged 65 or over. Many of the small coastal towns hit by the tsunami had long suffered from an exodus of young people to the cities. In the large gyms and other shelters there is little food and sometimes no running water. One official said the authorities simply lacked the means to provide good care.

Libyan rebels celebrate victory in Brega
Libyan rebels claim to have repulsed Gaddafi forces and won the battle for Brega. The eastern oil port was the first counter offensive by the Libyan leader, but it did not go all the rebels way. Government troops briefly captured the oil terminal but despite their greater fire power they were apparently forced to retreat. Read our news file The assault on the town, which is a gateway to the east for Gaddafi, has been the most significant military operation by him since the uprising erupted in mid-February. The US has warned it could set off a confrontation which has a chance of descending into a long civil war. As night fell Brega was full of jubilant people. There is a belief that Gaddafi’s men do not have the stomach for the job. But despite the relief there is concern the attack was backed by air strikes and Gaddafi has vowed to fight until the last man and woman.

UK report calls for more women in top jobs
Women should occupy at least a quarter of jobs on the boards of the UK’s top companies within four years, suggests a report issued by the government. But Lord Davies of Abersoch, a former trade minister who led the review, stopped short of introducing quotas to force companies to hire more female executives. Women make up 46 percent of the active population in the UK but only 12.5 percent of positions on the boards of FTSE 100 companies. Eighteen FTSE 100 companies and almost half of FTSE 250 companies have no female directors. Yet 60 percent of university graduates are women. In his report Davies said that “radical change is needed in the mindset of the business community” with regards to gender equality, adding: “This is not just about aiming for a specific figure and is not just about promoting equal opportunities but it is about improving business performance. There is growing evidence to show that diverse boards are better boards, delivering financial out-performance and stock market growth.” Davies suggests that within six months, companies should set their own targets for boosting female board representation and then either achieve them or explain why they failed to. Those targets should be set for 2013 and 2015, he added. The report goes on to say that if these voluntary targets were unsuccessful, then quotas should be considered as an alternative. Norway agreed to introduce a 40 percent quota of female directors of listed companies in 2003. Since then the rate of female representation on boards has shot up from 6.8 percent to around the 40 percent required by the quota. France and Spain have launched similar initiatives. Supporters of the quota system say voluntary targets are ineffective and often go ignored. But many in the business sector are keen to avoid government-imposed quotas, arguing that they would be too inflexible and would not reflect the different circumstances of individual companies. The report also encourages investors to take into consideration gender equality when re-appointing board members and urges head-hunting firms to draw up a voluntary code of practice to address gender diversity.

Gaddafi loses control of western towns
After 10 days of protests in Libya there are few signs of the regime restoring control, even in the capital Tripoli. Despite Colonel Gaddafi and his loyalists use of deadly force the people appear unbowed, and the regime has been weakened by political and military defections, raising the prospect of a split nation. It also appears that the revolt is spreading beyond its eastern heartland, with the western towns of Misrata and Zuara now reportedly in rebel hands, according to fleeing Egyptian workers crossing into Tunisia. They say police stations have been burned down and armed citzens militias along with army defectors now patrol the streets. The revolt has sharply cut the regime’s lifeblood, oil exports, with the major foreign company ENI saying what it is pumping has fallen by 75 percent. “In the centre of Tripoli, the very centre there are many dead, Tunisians and Egyptians. They leave the injured people to die on the streets. Five of my friends from Tunis have been killed. My friends!” said one man. Military defectors, including senior army officers in the rebel stronghold of Benghazi have said they are readying to march on the capital if Tripoli cannot manage to liberate itself from the Gaddafi regime. One French doctor recently returned home from the city says there had been 2000 deaths there alone.

More fears about contaminated produce in Japan
The authorities in Tokyo are advising that tap water should not be given to babies after levels of radiation dangerous for infants were detected at a purifying plant. Read our news file Officials have stopped the shipment of some produce from the Fukushima area. Unhealthy levels of radiation have been found in 11 types of vegetables. But shoppers are confused over food safety. When questioned by Euronews, one said that many people thought more types of vegetables had been contaminated. But another said she had been told vegetables were safe to eat as long as they had been washed. In Fukushima, some power has been restored to the stricken nuclear plant but experts on the scene say it will be some time before they can say the damaged reactors have stabilised. Meanwhile, in the coastal town of Higashi-Matsushima, a mechanical digger was used to dig a mass grave for two dozen victims of the earthquake and tsunami on March the 11th. Officials say up to 1000 people could eventually be laid to rest at the site. The grave is temporary. Burials are unusual in Japan, where cremation is the norm, but the authorities say the system is currently overwhelmed so the dead are being interred until a later date. The official death toll has now risen to more than 9,000. Almost 14,000 are still missing.

Ireland prepares for seismic political shift
Ireland is voting today in a general election some have billed as the most important in the republic’s history. Economic woes have dominated the campaign, notably the massive multi-billion euro bailout agreed with the EU and IMF. The opposition Fine Gael has promised to re-negotiate the terms of the rescue deal if elected. It looks certain to take power, with voters ready to dump the ruling Fianna Fail party. “No one has any money, you know, you work and work and work, and at the end of the day it’s getting taken back to pay what the politicians and banks have spent,” one woman said. Such sentiments appear widespread, with many voters accusing the government of mishandling the banking crisis which brought the once lauded ‘Celtic Tiger’ to its knees. The big question is whether Fine Gael will win an outright majority or need a coalition partner, most likely to be the Labour party.

Arab League backtracks over no fly zone
At a meeting of the Arab League today, there were mixed reactions to the military action being taken to enforce the UN’s no fly zone established by resolution 1973. Amr Moussa, the Head of the Arab League expressed reservations: “We requested the Security Council to establish a no fly zone in order to protect the civilians in addition to safe areas for the civilians to sit in without attacks on them. But the military developments that happened today, I really have no reports as yet.” The comments were a serious diplomatic set-back for the coalition forces engaged in military action in Libya. But there were other reactions. TO READ – Libya: a timeline of international diplomacy Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan said: “Gaddafi is contradicting himself. He said he does not have an official position. If he does not have an official position then he should hand Libya over to whoever does have legitimacy.” He went on to say that he wanted to see an end to the bloodshed and that he had advised Gaddafi to appoint a president as a way out of the crisis. In other developments, the Russians and the Chinese expressed regret over the military action, but the Japanese expressed approval.

“It is legal and right”: leaders justify attacks
Leaders of the forces assembled to stop Colonel Ghaddafi killing his own people in defiance of a UN resolution have spoken out about the military action which began on Saturday. Speaking from South America, President Obama said: “So we must be clear. Actions have consequences and the writ of the international community must be enforced. That is the cause of this coalition.” The coalition was brought together in Paris for an emergency summit on Saturday, and includes the US, European states, Canada, members of the Arab League, and a representative of the African Union. To read – Libya: a timeline of international diplomacy After French aircraft led the way in the afternoon, British planes flew sorties as night fell. “Tonight British forces are in action over Libya,” said British Prime Minister David Cameron. “They are part of an international coalition that has come together to enforce the will of the UN and to protect the Libyan people. So what we are doing is necessary. It is legal and it is right.”
