Bahamas boat capsize: Survivor records terrifying ship-sinking ordeal
One woman died and two people were taken to hospital on November 14 after a cruise ship sank near the Blue Lagoon Island in the Bahamas. Passenger Sarah Plourde told Storyful of the “traumatic” experience, much of which she was able to capture on video. She said the ferry capsized on its way to the island after encountering rough water, which caused it to tip within a couple of minutes. “The first floor filled with water and we had to climb to the side and climb out the window,” she said. “The captain wouldn’t turn the engines off so we were scared to swim out the back due to the propeller.” The Nassau Guardian cited police as saying the person who died was a Colorado woman. The Maritime Executive said she was 75 years old. A statement was issued by Blue Lagoon Island, saying: “The Royal Bahamas Defense Force, Blue Lagoon, and other vessels all assisted in getting people to shore and we are grateful for their help.” They said that local authorities, the ship company, and the US Embassy were notified about the incident.

The Israeli army on Sunday (December 24) released footage showing what it said an operation to dismantle Hamas’ Northern underground headquarters in Gaza.
The video showed a section of tunnel lined with white tiles, as well as a similarly designed bathroom with a basic shower, toilet and sink, and a work room with a corner table and bench. One tunnel had a drinking-water dispenser and a pile of bullets.

Robot artist Ai-Da gives Christmas greetings
An ultra-realistic robot artist, called Ai-Da, will take part in a UK yuletide tradition nearly 200 years old, the Royal Institution Christmas Lectures, trying to demystify artificial intelligence.
"Wishing everyone a merry Christmas," she told Reuters as she prepared for her new role.
Named after British mathematician and computer pioneer Ada Lovelace, robot Ai-Da is designed to blur the lines between humans and machines and provoke debate. And she will do just that as she interacts with and paints this year’s guest lecturer Michael Wooldridge, Professor of Artificial Intelligence at the University of Oxford.
“What we're aiming to do with these lectures is look under the hood, demystify it and show you what's actually going on," Professor Wooldridge told Reuters.

Giant number '2024' arrives in Times Square ahead of New Year celebrations
#newyear #newyork #worldnews
The iconic Times Square New Year's Eve "2024" numbers arrived in New York on Wednesday (December 20).
They traveled cross-country from Los Angeles, California in a 2024 Kia EV9 SUV, an all-electric vehicle.
The numerals are seven feet tall (about 2.13 meters) and use a total of 588 energy-efficient LED bulbs.
The first three numerals ("2-0-2") will act as "understudies," said Tom Harris, president of Times Square Alliance.
The numerals will stay on the Broadway Plaza at Times Square until Friday (December 22) and the numeral "4" will be placed at the top of the One Times Square building, under the Times Square Ball on a later date, completing the "2-0-2-4" display.
The number “2024” will light up at midnight on December 31.

Ukrainian soldiers with war wounds determined to recover
#ukraine #russia #worldnews
"My end goal is to stand up", said Marine Andriy, a Ukrainian serviceman who lost both his legs on the battlefield and is now determined to work hard towards recovery in a hospital in Vinnytsia, a city southwest of Kyiv.
With the support of rehabilitation activities, including physiotherapy and psychological support, he said he was feeling much better then when he arrived two months earlier.
According to hospital head and surgeon Dr. Yurii Bezsmertnyi, more than 1,200 patients who lost up to three limbs were treated at the hospital since the beginning of the war in February 2022.
Almost half of the hospital's patients, most of them soldiers who suffered amputations, need additional surgical assistance when they arrive, said Bezsmertnyi, adding that he was noticing an increase of high-leg, post-tourniquet amputations, which often necessitated more complex rehabilitation processes.
The hospital was supported by the independent International Medical Humanitarian Organization "Medecins sans frontiers" (MSF) at the time of filming of the story.
During the time patients spend at the hospital, they get prepared to receive prosthetic limbs, and learn to adapt to their injury and the far-reaching impact the injury has on their lives and future.

Pentagon says Iranian drone 'attack' hit chemical tanker near India
Iran's navy showed off its new cruise missiles on Sunday (December 24), amid growing tensions on the region.
This footage from Iranian state television comes a day after the U.S. Department of Defense claimed that a drone launched from Iran had struck a chemical tanker in the Indian ocean early on Saturday (December 23).
That was the seventh Iranian attack on commercial shipping since 2021, the Pentagon statement said.
There were no casualties as a result of the attack and a brief fire on board the tanker was extinguished.
A spokesperson for the Iranian delegation at the United Nations did not respond to a request for comment.
The incident highlights escalating regional tensions and a new risk to shipping lanes.
That's in the wake of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel and Israel's subsequent bombardment of Gaza.
Iran on Saturday denied U.S. accusations that it was involved in planning attacks by Yemen's Tehran-aligned Houthi movement on commercial vessels in the Red Sea.

Undercover Santa helps bust Peruvian drug gang
#peru #worldnews
Peruvian police carried out a drug bust operation with the special help of Santa Claus in Huacal, near the capital Lima.
Video released on Saturday (December 23) by Peruvian National Police shows an officer from the urban intelligence tactical division, known as the Green Squad, dressed as Santa Claus breaking down a door with a sledgehammer and helping to detain a suspect.
Green Squad chief Walter Palomino said the place where the drugs were being sold was hard to access, so the Santa disguise was used to get close to the scene without alerting locals to the police action.
Local media said two men, aged 25 and 32, had been arrested for selling drugs.

Alligator missing upper jaw is rescued after freakish injury
THIS Alligator missing upper jaw is rescued after sustaining a very freakish injury in Florida, USA. After weeks of searching, an alligator missing half of its jaw was captured. The reptile is now a resident of Gatorland, where it will be treated and cared for in a controlled setting. Gatorland experts believe that because of how much her jaw has healed, it's possible she has been surviving in the wild for months. One theory explaining the gator's injury is that it might have been caused by a boat's engine propeller.

'Evil will be defeated', Zelensky tells Ukraine in Christmas message
#ukraine
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has issued a Christmas message to his country assuring them of eventual victory over Russia.
In the message released on Sunday (December 24), Zelenskiy stands in front of Kyiv's famous Pechersk Lavra monastery complex and speaks of praying for the end of the war, which began when Russia invaded its neighbour in February 2022.
"Step by step, day by day, darkness is losing and darkness will finally lose, the evil will lose," he said.
For the first time, Ukraine will celebrate Christmas Day on December 25 after Zelenskiy signed into law a parliamentary bill to "abandon the Russian cultural and religious heritage" and switched the official Christmas Day state holiday from January 7, a move aimed at distancing the country from Russian traditions.

Deadly alligator chases after children as they swim away in terror
HORRIFYING moment a deadly alligator chases after children as they swim away in terror. An alligator took aim at a group of children swimming in a lake at a Texas state park on September 9, to the horror of parents and onlookers. David Siljeg recorded this video while visiting Huntsville State Park, and told Storyful he thought the alligator was much smaller at first, and assumed it would leave once it saw people swimming and splashing. “Well, that wasn’t the case, as the alligator switched to attack mode and was aiming quickly toward the little kids,” he said, estimating the alligator to be more than 12 feet long. A man can be seen frantically running into the water to help the screaming children. As the kids are rushed to safety, a woman with a floaty is seen wading into the water toward the gator, which then changes direction, but does not stray far. “Nobody was hurt, thank God, and the sheriff arrived soon after to close the beach and verify that everyone was okay,” Siljeg said.

Playful whale calf gives kayakers a big push
THESE Kayakers from Byron Bay, New South Wales, had a close counter with a pod of whales, and were treated to a big push from a calf. Drone footage from Isabella Dobozy captured the moment the whale calf whipped its tail, sending a powerful current of water that pushed the kayak off course. “The whales swam past the kayakers, but came back to have another look when the calf swam up to the kayak,” said Dobozy. “It’s incredible to see how big the whale calf is, compared to the kayak,”

Israeli woman asks for her father to be freed from Hamas captivity as 'Christmas miracle'
#gaza #israel #palestine
Ella Ben Ami's wish to see her mother return from Gaza captivity has been fulfilled, but with her father still held hostage by Palestinian militants in the Hamas-controlled enclave, she is hoping for a 'miracle'.
Ella's parents, mother Raz Ben Ami, 57, and father Ohad Ben Ami, 55, were kidnapped from their home in Kibbutz Be'eri near the Gaza border by Hamas militants on October 7, when the group rampaged through Israeli communities and an outdoor music festival, killing and kidnapping people.
Raz was released from captivity on November 29, under a temporary truce deal between Israel and Hamas.
But her husband Ohad is believed to still be held in Gaza, along with more than 100 hostages.
Ella said that her mother was missing her father and was feeling 'broken'. She said that her mother had lost weight while in captivity and hasn't been sharing much of her experiences there.
As her father's birthday is on December 24, Ella wished for a 'Christmas miracle' that would bring her father back. Her wish comes as intensive talks are underway on a ceasefire to get hostages freed and let aid into Gaza.

Fire tornado whips through farmland in Australia
A fire whirl, sometimes known as or fire tornado or “firenado”, whipped through an outback property at Tennant Creek in Australia’s Northern Territory as multiple bushfires burned across the region on October 27. “In this situation there was absolutely nothing we could do but sit back and watch,” said local resident Hayes Cook who captured the dramatic footage. Cook said he and others had tried to protect the farmland, so said it “absolutely heartbreaking to see our past three days of hard work go down the drain so quickly.” A watch-and-act alert was in effect for the Tennant Creek bushfire that day, with officials warning the fire was running under very high-to-extreme weather conditions. “It’s been pretty hot and there hasn’t been a lot of rain on the way,” Cook told Storyful.

Ukrainian forces battle freezing weather near Bakhmut
#ukraine #russia #russiaukrainewar
Sub-zero temperatures are complicating the fight say Ukrainian soldiers fighting Russian forces near Bakhmut on Friday (December 15)
A soldier of the 92nd separate assault brigade, operating a howitzer, told Reuters that frozen rain and snow covers the unit's drones and vehicles making it difficult to operate them and helping the Russians advance.
Senior army General Oleksandr Tarnavskyi said winter cold is exhausting for the troops, reduces visibility on their targets and leaves them exposed and venerable without the cover of the trees .
Russia claimed last May to have fully captured the smashed eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut, ending the longest and bloodiest battle of the war.
Bakhmut is a focal point for the Ukrainian counter-offensive, but Ukraine hasn't made major gains in the area.
Russia, however, has also made no tangible progress since capturing Bakhmut.
Reuters could not verify the location or date the handout drone footage provided by the military was filmed.
