He expects the arrival of Ethiopian domestic workers soon, especially after the recent decision allowing the issuance of visas for foreigners. He stated that the recruitment of domestic workers will be done online; that is, after filling up the job order. He added the domestic labor offices will be given special codes to deal directly with the Ethiopian Ministry of Labor. He stressed that the Ethiopian workers will contribute to addressing the domestic labor shortage resulting from the ban on workers from the Philippines. He is hoping for the settlement of disputes soon to resume the recruitment of workers from the Philippines.

A farm in Bolivia’s Andean plains grapples with hotter climateBy Santiago Limachi and Monica MachicaoORURO, Bolivia (Reuters) – Bolivian ranchers Elizabeth and Edwin Churata are learning how to survive in a drier, hotter climate. They are adapting new water-storage techniques as their traditional ponds dry up, and changing how they feed their cattle and sheep. In the past few years, the Churatas’ farm in the highland Andean region of Oruro has been hit by climate phenomena known as La Nina and recently the reverse El Nino, the strongest one in 20 years. Bolivia has seen major lakes decline, including the giant Titicaca, Lake Poopo and Uru Uru, which are important reservoirs of water for farmers like Elizabeth and Edwin. They have traditionally relied on wild grasses to feed their animals, burning the grass stalks and praying for adequate rainfall.

Olympics-Mbappe misses out on France training campBy Vincent DaheronPARIS (Reuters) – Kylian Mbappe has been left out of France’s 25-man preliminary squad for a training camp ahead of this year’s Paris Olympics, head coach Thierry Henry said on Monday. France’s top rugby union player Antoine Dupont missed the 2024 Six Nations Championship to represent France in the Olympic Rugby Sevens. Warren Zaire-Emery and Bradley Barcola, who have been named in France’s Euro 2024 squad, were also included in the Olympic list. The Olympic tournament features squads of players under the age of 23, with the possibility of adding three players above that age limit. Les Bleus play warm-up matches against Paraguay, the Dominican Republic and Japan before starting the Olympic tournament on July 24 in Marseille against the United States.

By Giulia ParaviciniNAIROBI (Reuters) - Somalia will expel thousands of Ethiopian troops stationed in the country to help with security by the end of the year unless Addis Ababa scraps a disputed port deal with the breakaway region of Somaliland, a senior Somali official said on Monday. Ethiopia offered Somaliland possible recognition in exchange for being allowed to set up a naval base and commercial port – a move Mogadishu has called illegal. Spokespeople for the Ethiopian government and the Ethiopian National Defence Forces (ENDF) did not respond to requests for comment. The African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (ATMIS), which is mandated by the U.N. Security Council, is due to fully withdraw and hand over security responsibilities to the Somali state by the end of 2024. But the Somali government has requested several times for the withdrawal of troops to be slowed down, citing setbacks on the battlefield.

Tennis-Rybakina marches past Svitolina into French Open quarter-finalsBy Sybille de La HamaidePARIS (Reuters) -World number four Elena Rybakina of Kazakhstan sent out a warning to her fellow title contenders as she eased to a 6-4 6-3 victory over Ukraine’s Elena Svitolina on Monday to reach her second French Open quarter-final. Svitolina had reached the quarter-finals four times before, including 2023, but was unable to trouble the former Wimbledon champion. Rybakina withdrew from the French Open last year before her third-round match because of illness. This season, after winning titles in Brisbane, Abu Dhabi and Stuttgart, Rybakina pulled out of the Italian Open due to health issues. Rybakina is the only player to beat Iga Swiatek on clay this year, defeating the world number one and three-times French Open champion on her way to the Stuttgart title in April.

Today, on the lawns of one of Cairo’s upscale sporting clubs, Samir’s restaurant ‘Kush Children’s Village’ serves up a fusion menu. “The name was my father’s idea, inspired by the Bible,” she said, explaining the reference to Kush, the ancient kingdom that straddled modern-day Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia. “We serve all three cuisines,” she said proudly, but insisted the restaurant is still distinctly Sudanese. “But the war’s not ending,” she said, resigned to finding ways to remind herself of the homeland she longs for. “I want to hire a henna artist in the restaurant, I know Egyptians love that,” she said with a laugh.

“I invite everyone to pray for Sudan, where the war that has lasted over a year has yet to find a peaceful solution. The Pope urged international leaders and Sudanese authorities to help Sudan and its many displaced people. As the Pope appealed for peace, time seems to be running out for millions of people in Sudan, who are at imminent risk of famine. Now, as the war drags on, humanitarian organisations have sent a stark warning, saying the warring parties are preventing aid from reaching the population.

It would be interesting to learn from Biden which Israeli came up with this plan. Biden’s “Israeli” plan sounded c,omprehensive but it wasn’t, and it didn’t sound right. According to Biden we would get all our hostages after we release several hundred merciless killers and accept a ceasefire that would become a permanent cessation in fighting. In other words, Biden’s Israel plan gifts a victory to Hamas. But Biden broke that sacred bond in a cynical political manner.

The Olympic and world champion broke his record for the eighth time with a vault of 6.24m in April, and after easing to victory with his first attempt at 6.00m, he had the home crowd behind him as he attempted to go even better.

Two-time world champion American Sam Kendricks was second with 5.90m. Brazil’s Alison dos Santos cruised to victory in the men’s 400m hurdles, ahead of world silver medallist Kyron McMaster. British Olympic silver medallist Laura Muir strolled to a win in the women’s 1,500 metres in a time of 3:57.99. World champion Yaroslava Mahuchikh won the women’s high jump, clearing 2.00m at the second attempt, with the Ukrainian making her outdoor season debut. Jamaica’s world champion Shericka Jackson won the women’s 200m in a season’s best of 22.69, but still well off her 21.41 from last season, the second fastest time ever.
