 Texas man arrested with 75 pounds of marijuana in luggage while flying to London, police say A Texas man was arrested at Miami International Airport after authorities found 75 pounds of marijuana in his luggage before he could board a flight to London.

 Japan restarts seafood exports to China after two-year halt

Japan has restarted seafood exports to China after a two-year suspension prompted by concerns over potential radioactive contamination. The Japanese government confirmed that six tons of frozen scallops from Hokkaido were shipped to China on Wednesday, with an additional 1,323 pounds of salted sea cucumbers scheduled to follow on Monday.

Japanese officials said they view the resumption positively and plan to press China to lift remaining restrictions on fishery products from ten other prefectures, as well as to resume imports of Japanese beef. China had halted seafood imports in 2023 following the release of treated radioactive water from the Fukushima nuclear plant, while the beef ban traces back to a 2001 mad cow disease outbreak. Beijing lifted the ban on shipments from ten prefectures in June after independent testing found no abnormalities. Exporters must register facilities with Chinese authorities and provide radioactivity inspection certificates, though only three facilities have been approved so far. Chinese officials warned that any future risks would trigger immediate import restrictions.
