  Uganda court orders state to compensate warlord's victims A Ugandan court on Monday ordered the government to pay victims of a former Lord's Resistance Army commander up to $2,500 each, according to AFP. Thomas Kwoyelo was found guilty in August of multiple counts of crimes against humanity for his role in the notorious militia in the first such trial in the East African country.

On Monday, the court in Gulu in northern Uganda found that he was unable to provide compensation to victims and their families and found the government liable in his place.

 Doctors Warn Americans of Quadruple Viral Threat   This winter, Americans face four simultaneous viral threats: the flu, COVID-19, norovirus (stomach flu), and RSV (respiratory syncytial virus).  Doctors fear a rise in hospitalizations due to low booster vaccine uptake for COVID-19 this year. Hospitals are preparing for a potential surge in patients.  Flu vaccination rates are also low. While the recommended protection level is 70%, only about 35% of American adults have received a flu shot.  None of the four viruses have peaked yet. Experts predict outbreaks between January and March, especially as people travel by plane during the holiday season.  Hospitalization rates for viral infections rose by 14% in the week of December 1-7, reaching 3.3% of all hospital admissions. Two weeks prior, the rate was 2.9%. Louisiana and Georgia currently have the highest infection rates in the United States.

  Indians might soon enjoy visa-free travel to Russia as the two nations work towards easing travel restrictions. A new system, likely to begin by spring 2025, is under discussion to implement visa-free group tourist exchanges. Talks between India and Russia regarding this agreement were first reported in June this year. This initiative aims to strengthen bilateral ties and boost tourism between the two countries. Currently, Indian nationals require a visa issued by the Russian Embassy or Consulates to enter, stay, or exit Russia. The process has been lengthy and cumbersome for travelers. However, since August 2023, Indian citizens have been able to apply for e-visas to Russia, which are processed in about four days. Last year, India ranked among the top five countries in terms of e-visas issued, with 9,500 Indian travelers benefiting from this system, according to The Indian Express.
