 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.

CHINA CONFIRMS AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE 200 BOEING AIRCRAFT IN MAJOR AVIATION DEAL WITH U.S.(PHOTO).


 China confirms agreement to purchase 200 Boeing aircraft in major aviation deal with U.S

China has confirmed an agreement to purchase 200 Boeing aircraft, along with engines and spare parts, in a move that signals renewed aviation trade between the world’s two largest economies.

A spokesperson for China’s Commerce Ministry said the deal was reached in line with the consensus between Chinese and U.S. leadership and is based on commercial terms and China’s aviation development needs. The official emphasized that aviation cooperation remains an important area for strengthening economic ties between the two countries.

The announcement follows comments from U.S. President Donald Trump, who said last week that China would buy 200 Boeing planes. While the order is smaller than some earlier industry expectations, it marks the first significant Chinese purchase of Boeing aircraft since 2017.

The agreement could pave the way for additional orders in the future as Chinese carriers continue to expand. Boeing, which assembles most of its commercial jets in Seattle, has faced a backlog of global demand, and industry officials in Washington state say further Chinese orders would be a natural development given current market conditions.

Officials in Washington have welcomed the deal, noting the importance of Boeing to the state’s economy and its extensive network of suppliers across aerospace and related industries.

China’s aviation regulator also recently held discussions with Boeing’s chief executive during a meeting that included members of a U.S. delegation, reflecting ongoing engagement between the company and Chinese aviation authorities.

Boeing did not immediately issue a public response to the announcement.
