 U.S equipment, experts arrive at Kenya Ebola facility despite court order, protests Around 20 flights carrying medical equipment and specialist staff have landed at a base in Kenya where the U.S. ​government is continuing to build an Ebola quarantine facility despite protests and Kenyan court orders blocking it, according to flight data and officials. At least two ‌people have been killed in protests in the central Kenyan town of Nanyuki, home to the Kenyan air force base where the U.S. military is building a 50-bed unit for Americans who might be exposed to the virus, which has infected hundreds in Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. A Kenyan court first ordered work on the Ebola facility to be suspended on May ​28, yet U.S. military flights into Nanyuki continued in the days that followed, according to data from flight-tracking service Flightradar24.

IRAN REJECTS LATEST CEASEFIRE PROPOSAL.(PHOTO)


 Iran rejects latest ceasefire proposal


Iran has rejected the latest ceasefire proposal, insisting on a permanent end to the conflict, according to state-run IRNA. The Iranian government conveyed its position to the United States through Pakistan, a key mediator. Mojtaba Ferdousi Pour, head of Iran’s diplomatic mission in Cairo, said Monday, “We only accept an end of the war with guarantees that we won’t be attacked again.”

The rejection comes as U.S. President Donald Trump’s Monday-night deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz approaches. Trump warned that failure to comply would lead to strikes on Iran’s power plants and other infrastructure, prompting Iranian parliamentary Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf to call the threats “reckless.” Trump is scheduled to address the situation from the White House on Monday afternoon.

Tensions escalated further as Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced an attack on Iran’s South Pars petrochemical plant at Asaluyeh. This follows a previous strike on South Pars facilities in March, which had triggered Iranian retaliation against oil and gas infrastructure in Gulf Arab states.

Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard also suffered key losses. Maj. Gen. Majid Khademi, head of intelligence for the Revolutionary Guard, was killed, with Israel claiming responsibility. Israel’s military said it also killed Asghar Bakeri, the leader of the Guard’s undercover Quds Force unit.

A coordinated wave of U.S. and Israeli attacks on Monday reportedly killed more than 25 people in Iran, prompting retaliatory missile strikes by Iran targeting Israel and its Gulf Arab neighbors. The region remains on high alert as diplomatic and military tensions continue to rise.
