Yemen fighting pushes nearly 3,000 to Djibouti in less than a week: UN    Nearly 3,000 people have fled Yemen for Djibouti in less than a week as escalating violence drives growing displacement within the country and across its borders, the UN refugee agency said Friday. “Refugees continue to arrive by boat through Obock, Khor Angar, Moulhoule and Godoria after difficult journeys in small vessels,” UNHCR representative in Djibouti Sandrine Desamours told reporters in Geneva, Anadolu Agency reported. More than half of those crossing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait are women and children, while some families have been displaced for a second time after previously fleeing Yemen during the 2015 crisis and later returning. UNHCR is preparing for at least 10,000 new arrivals but warned that capacity is rapidly diminishing. Markazi refugee village, designed for 5,000 people, was already hosting more than 2,700 Yemenis and 1,500 Eritreans. More than 100,000 people have also been displaced ins...

NBA BANS TWO FANS FOR LIFE AFTER COURT INTRUSION DURING GAME 1 OF NBA FINALS INVOLVING VICTOR WEMBANYAMA. (PHOTO).



NBA bans two fans for life after court intrusion during Game 1 of NBA Finals involving Victor Wembanyama 


 The NBA has issued lifetime bans to two individuals following a court intrusion during Game 1 of the NBA Finals, after one fan ran onto the floor and appeared to take a selfie near San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama.

One of the individuals was arrested shortly after entering the court area during the fourth quarter of the game between the Spurs and New York Knicks. The league also banned a second fan for involvement in the incident, though officials did not specify the nature of that person’s actions.

According to a league statement, the fan who entered the court “will be banned for life from all NBA arenas,” and a second individual “will also receive a lifetime ban for his role in the incident.”

The fan ran onto the court from the sideline opposite the benches and moved into the Spurs’ offensive end before being quickly removed by security personnel. There was no indication of physical contact with Wembanyama or any players.

Wembanyama said he was unsure how to respond in the moment.

“I’ve never been in that situation,” he said. “I didn’t know how to act.”

Play was halted for just over a minute before resuming with a jump ball after the fan was escorted off the court through a baseline tunnel.

Spurs coach Mitch Johnson downplayed the disruption, saying security handled the situation quickly and the game moved on without issue.
