The U.K. will produce electricity only from renewable and nuclear sources by 2035 under plans set out by Prime Minister Boris Johnsons government.
With the country grappling with a crisis that has driven natural gas and power prices to record highs and forced the collapse of a number of suppliers, Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng announced plans to further cut Britain’s reliance on fossil fuels. He told a conference of the ruling Conservative party on Monday that nuclear power has to be part of the solution in the U.K. energy mix.
Fossil fuel power generation in the U.K. has fallen to unprecedented low levels, as coal stations are shut down and investment in wind and solar power increases. More than half of the electricity now comes from low-carbon sources. But the country remains heavily reliant on gas, and Kwarteng wants that share to reduce.

“What we’re saying is that by 2035 we won’t have any fossil fuels,” he said, referring to power production. “We’ll have removed gas hopefully, as well as coal.”
A bigger share of renewables and nuclear energy will also make the country less dependent on imports, Johnson told broadcasters at the party conference in Manchester.
“The advantage of that is that it will mean that, for the first time, the U.K. is not dependent on hydrocarbons coming from overseas with all the vagaries in hydrocarbon prices and the risk that poses for people’s pockets and for the consumer,” he said.
The Climate Change Committee, which advises the government on meeting its targets, said that gas use shouldn’t go unabated after 2035. That means the U.K. will need to step up its investment in carbon capture and storage technology.
Kwarteng has promised to set out a strategy this month for how the U.K. will reach net-zero emissions by 2050. He’s also expected to unveil a long-awaited plan on how to decarbonize the country’s heat supply.
The U.K. says net zero will be hard to reach without nuclear power, but atomic stations are expensive and take years to build. The government committed in December to financing at least one large-scale nuclear project by 2025.
But it has been trying to hammer out a deal with Electricite de France for almost 10 months. Things have also been complicated by the government exploring ways to remove state-owned developer China General Nuclear Power Corp. from all future projects in the U.K., Bloomberg reported in July.
In the course of a single day, an exceptionally rare hurricane-strength storm unloaded up to four years worth of rain along Omans northern coast, causing deadly flooding.
Named Tropical Cyclone Shaheen, the tempest slammed ashore late Sunday, about 50 miles to the west of Muscat, Oman’s capital city, and very close to the coastal towns of Al Suwayq and Al Masnaah.
The storm has since departed, but not before leaving 11 dead in Oman, according to the Associated Press, mostly because of flash flooding and landslides. The storm was also blamed for two fatalities in Iran, where the bodies of two fishermen were found.

The Times of Oman reported that up to 14.5 inches fell in Al Khaburah, which is just to the west of where the storm came ashore. The city of about 40,000 people averages between three and four inches of rain per year.
Several nearby locations received more than eight inches of rain. Al Suwayq registered about a foot, with 4.5 inches falling in just six hours.
Muscat’s Seeb International Airport received 3.7 inches in 24 hours Sunday, which is about its average annual rainfall. The airport clocked wind gusts up to 51 mph, but the most severe winds almost certainly occurred in areas to the west that were intercepted by Shaheen’s eyewall, the ring of intense thunderstorms surrounding the storm’s calm center, closer to Al Suwayq.
As the storm crossed the coast, its maximum sustained winds were around 75 mph, equivalent to a Category 1 hurricane. Waves were predicted to be 30 to 40 feet high over the Gulf of Oman before Shaheen’s landfall along Oman’s central-northeast coast.
Scenes from social media showed floodwaters and landslides overwhelming the region. The Times of Oman’s live updates on the storm described blocked and flooded roads, people trapped in vehicles, building collapses and overflowing dams. The desert landscape and its infrastructure are unaccustomed to so much rain in a short duration.
Shaheen was the first tropical cyclone to make landfall along Oman’s northern coast since 1890 and only the third on record. None have been observed in the era of weather satellites (since the 1960s) or during the month of October. According to meteorologists Bob Henson and Jeff Masters, writing for Yale Climate Connections, it struck farther west in Oman than any previous tropical cyclone.
Henson and Masters wrote that Shaheen fed off the very warm waters of the Gulf of Oman, which were between 84 and 88 degrees, several degrees above normal. Ocean temperatures have been rising worldwide because of human-caused climate change.
WASHINGTON – A high-stakes standoff between Democrats and Republicans over how to raise the debt ceiling intensified markedly on Monday as President Joe Biden said he could not guarantee that the U.S. government wouldnt default – and Republicans reiterated their refusal to address the issue.
The brinkmanship played out over a series of tersely worded letters and statements between Congress and the White House, with three of the most powerful political leaders in Washington all trying to assign early blame if they do not avert the outcome in the next two weeks. Democrats and Republicans agree that the consequences of inaction would be financially calamitous, but they are at odds over how to proceed.
At the center of the fight is an insistence by Republicans that Democrats alone should be responsible for raising the debt ceiling, with Republicans saying they do not want to help Democrats increase spending. Democrats counter that the debt ceiling must be raised to pay trillions of dollars that has already been promised, bills that increased precipitously during the Trump administration.

The controversy over the debt ceiling comes amid a political battle in Washington over the budget and spending levels, and Democrats have clashed with one another over how much new spending they should authorize. Biden last week called for Democrats to be patient as they try to unify around a single plan, but those talks will be upended if the debt ceiling is not raised soon, because of the expected economic fallout.
Speaking from the State Dining Room, Biden blasted Republicans for not supporting an increase to the country’s borrowing cap, calling their stance “hypocritical, dangerous and disgraceful.” Twice in the past two weeks, GOP lawmakers led by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., have blocked the chamber from taking action that would stave off a default in federal debts, prompting Biden to accuse them of pulling a “reckless” political stunt.
Asked after his speech whether he could guarantee the debt ceiling would be resolved, Biden said: “No, I can’t. That’s up to Mitch McConnell.”
Biden’s comments came shortly after McConnell issued a fiery statement accusing Democrats in Congress of “sleepwalking toward significant and avoidable danger.” In a letter to Biden, the GOP leader added that Republicans have made clear for months now that they would not support an increase to the debt ceiling, as part of their broader opposition to the president’s roughly $4 trillion economic agenda. Instead, McConnell called on Democrats to address the issue on their own.
“For two and a half months, we have simply warned that since your party wishes to govern alone, it must handle the debt limit alone as well,” he said.
Trying to create new urgency, Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, D-N.Y., on Monday informed lawmakers in a letter that they must resolve the looming debt-ceiling cliff “by the end of this week” – even if it meant working through weekends.
“We do not have the luxury of waiting until October 18, as it is our responsibility to reassure the world that the United States meets our obligations in a timely fashion and that the full faith and credit of the United States should never be in question,” Schumer wrote on Monday. “The consequences of even approaching the X date could be disastrous for our economy and devastating to American families.”
Treasury Secretary Janet L. Yellen has told lawmakers that her agency could run out of flexibility to continue making payments on Oct. 18 if Congress does not act.
The exchanges left the country on an uncertain path. In recent history, the government has come close to defaulting, but Congress has always stepped in after the mere prospect rattled financial markets, springing unsettled lawmakers into action.
The federal government spends much more money than it brings in through revenue, requiring it to borrow the balance by issuing debt. Without a congressional response, economists widely agree a breach risks financial and economic havoc, with the federal government potentially forced to miss payments, such as Social Security checks to seniors. A default could even plunge the U.S. back into a recession only months after emerging from the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression.
Seeking to further illustrate the stakes Monday, Biden likened the possibility of a debt default to the prospect of a “meteor headed to crash into our economy.” He also warned about the immediate prospect of higher interest rates, stressing that the public could feel the impact this week as fresh financial-market jitters sink in.
“They need to stop playing Russian roulette with the U.S. economy,” Biden said of Republicans. “Not only are Republicans refusing to do their job, but threatening to use their power to prevent us from doing our job – saving the economy from a catastrophic event – I think, quite frankly, is hypocritical, dangerous and disgraceful. Their obstruction and irresponsibility knows absolutely no bounds.”
Twice in recent days, Senate Republicans have opposed Democratic attempts to raise the debt ceiling, including by voting against a measure that would have funded the government. GOP lawmakers in the Senate are expected to scuttle it a third time if Schumer attempts to move another increase this week that previously passed the House.
Democrats stress they voted several times to raise the debt ceiling during the Trump administration, even when he pursued policies they did not support. During that time, the White House and Congress approved policies that added nearly $8 trillion to the federal debt, including a dramatic increase in military spending, coronavirus relief funds and a big tax-cut package. To emphasize the point, White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Monday displayed a large slide during her daily briefing showing the debt increase during the Trump presidency far outpacing the increase during Biden’s tenure.
“Why let McConnell off the hook or Republicans off the hook? I mean, this is their debt, that they chalked up themselves,” she said.
In blocking its advance, McConnell instead has argued Democrats instead should use the process known as reconciliation to lift the cap. The tactic would allow Democrats to adopt spending legislation using 51 votes, as opposed to the normal 60 votes required to overcome a filibuster in the deadlocked chamber.
Democrats have resisted this move, which could require them to raise the debt ceiling by a specific amount, potentially exposing them to a flurry of uncomfortable political attacks. Schumer and other Democrats also have described the process as “risky,” potentially taking so much time that the country could default before Democrats even finished legislating.
Biden on Monday explained why he does not like the reconciliation pathway, arguing the process would be cumbersome and could take too long to accomplish. The president instead beseeched McConnell to simply allow Democrats to vote on the debt-ceiling hike by not filibustering the measure.
Psaki later clarified that Democrats are not resolute in refusing to use it.
“He wasn’t ruling out options,” she said.
In his remarks, the president tried to head off any confusion about the debt ceiling’s connection to the rest of his domestic agenda. At a moment when Republicans are portraying Democrats as reckless free-spenders and some Democrats have urged more restraint, Biden emphasized that he is not trying to raise the debt limit to finance his sweeping proposals.
“Let me be really clear. This is really important to know. Raising the debt limit is about paying off our old debts. It has nothing to do with any new spending being considered,” the president said. “It has nothing to do with my plan for infrastructure or building back better. Zero.”
The comments were notable as the battle lines around government spending, inflation and how wide the social safety net should be are hardening ahead of next year’s midterm elections. Biden and his aides have shown some sensitivity in recent weeks to attacks from Republicans, stepping up efforts to explain rising costs and underscore the ways they plan to finance their ambitious agenda.
But Biden’s agenda has slowed on Capitol Hill over disagreements within the president’s party. In related comments Monday, the president acknowledged that a massive plan to expand the social safety net would have to be pared down from what he proposed.
“It’s going to be less,” the president said as he was asked about attempts by centrists including Sens. Joe Manchin III, D-W.Va., and Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., to whittle down its price tag and policy scope. “I need 50 votes in the Senate. I have 48.”
The battle over the debt ceiling this week is reminiscent of the high-stakes showdowns in 2011 and 2013 during the Obama administration. Those partisan fights ultimately cost the U.S. economy as much as $180 billion and 1.2 million jobs by 2015, throwing financial markets out of whack and creating business anxiety, one economic analysis found. Fitch Ratings has recently warned that the United States could be hit with a credit downgrade as brinkmanship continues over the matter, which could drive up the costs of borrowing.
The White House has examined unilateral measures to deal with the debt ceiling, even circulating internal memos reviewing the possibility of minting a $1 trillion coin to finance the government’s debt. The administration has ruled out those ideas as impractical and likely to still lead to financial calamity.
Congressional Republicans have uniformly backed McConnell’s position on the matter. They have pointed to Biden’s decision not to vote for raising the debt ceiling while he was a senator. Biden rejected that criticism Monday, arguing his votes were different because they were part of up-or-down votes on measures that passed anyway.
“Biden opposed raising the debt ceiling three times. And now he’s sanctimoniously lecturing Republicans about responsibility as he pushes for a $3.5 trillion reckless spending plan,” Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., said on Twitter in response to Biden’s speech. “Give me a break.”
The number of Covid-19 cases crossed 12.29 million across Southeast Asia, with 39,566 new cases reported on Monday (October 4), lower than Sunday’s tally at 43,584. New deaths are at 566, increasing from Sunday’s number of 550. Total Covid-19 deaths in Asean are now at 265,236.
Laos announced on Monday that it has plans to authorise self-isolation and at-home care for those infected with Covid-19, or people who have had close contact with an infected person after infections have increased in many communities and soon the provincial hospitals and field hospitals will be at full capacity. The country also announced the extension of disease control measures in Vientiane until October 15 to curb the outbreak.
Meanwhile, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen has called on people to take extra precautions to prevent large-scale Covid-19 transmission during the Pchum Ben public holiday on October 5-7. Pchum Ben festival is the kingdom’s second largest festival after the Khmer New Year. This year’s festival is canceled to curb the spread of the disease, but the three-day holiday is maintained for all state institution and private company workers. Cambodia on Monday confirmed 219 new Covid19 cases, pushing the national total caseload to 113,475.

“Whittling down the list of photographs was harder than ever this year,” says Tom Sullam. “There were so many funny pictures that had us laughing that we couldn’t settle on a top 40 – so we’re releasing the top 42 instead! It was great to see a range of animals, from the incredibly rare to the humble pigeon. We can’t wait to see what the public choose as their favourite and look forward to showcasing some of these pictures at The Photography Show in Birmingham this September.”
The warships that sank during World War I off the Gallipoli Peninsula in northwest Turkey were introduced to the attention of diving enthusiasts as part of an underwater park as of Sunday.
The Gallipoli Historical Underwater Park, located off the Canakkale province in the Dardanelles Strait, which witnessed fierce fighting during the war, was inaugurated with a ceremony, exposing 14 different sunken ships.
Ismail Kasdemir, head of the Turkish Directorate of Gallipoli Historical Site, said at the ceremony held on Saturday that the area witnessed heavy clashes between the navies of the central powers, including Germany and the Ottoman Empire, and the allied forces, such as France and Britain.

Kasdemir noted that with this park, “Canakkale would be one of the most beautiful diving destinations, exposing the stories of each of the sunken ships.”
One of the most significant diving spots of the park is the 120-meter-long British Royal Battleship, HMS Majestic, sunk by the German U-21 submarine off Seddulbahir Castle in 1915.

“Unexploded artillery shells and gunpowder on the ship at a depth of 24 meters will attract the diving lovers,” a press release said.
It added that another British ship, HMS Triumph, which sank into the waters with its 73 personnel on May 25, 1915, lies at a depth of 70 meters off the Kabatepe shores.
Meanwhile, the wreckage of the French Massena battleship and French Saghalien passenger steamer could be seen at a depth of 5-7 meters in Ertugrul Bay. In November 1915, Saghalien was scuttled with Massena off Seddulbahir to form a mole for the French landing forces.
The vessels remained largely intact on the seafloor, according to officials.

Andrea Checchi, mayor of San Donato, called the crash “horrifying.” According to news reports, none of the fatalities were Italian.
The flight was in the early stages of a flight between Milan’s Linate Airport and the airport in Olbia, on the Italian island region of Sardinia. Some media reports said that the pilot issued a distress call shortly after takeoff.
Media reported witness accounts that indicated the aircraft engine was in flames as it descended, with some pieces of the plane falling off while it was still in flight.
Tiziana Siciliano, the public prosecutor in Milan, vowed to open an investigation to determine who was responsible for the disaster.
According to news reports, Siciliano also revealed that the black box — a heavily-protected recording device airplanes are required to carry and that is often a key part of investigations into air disasters — had been safely recovered.

Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand, October 3, 2021 – Gifted Chatchu-on Moksri scored a team-high 31 points as Nakhon Ratchasima QminC VC survived a scare from Zhetysu to rally past the Kazakh opponents in hard-fought five sets in the 2021 Asian Womens Club Volleyball Championship at Terminal 21 Hall here on Sunday.
Nakhon Ratchasima struggled in their last preliminary Pool A encounter to beat Zhetysu 25-20, 18-25, 25-19, 17-25, 15-10 for two successive wins and captured the top spot in the group as expected.
Nakhon Ratchasima, powered by highly-experienced setter Nootsara Tomkom and ace spiker Chatchu-on Moksri, made a flying start with a fantastic 25-20 win in the opening set, but Zhetysu challenged the tough rivals seriously in the second set and clawed their way back, with Anastasia Gurbanova and Svetlana Parukova joining forces in puncturing the Thai defence to help Zhetysu snatch the second set 25-18.

Zhetysu tried to keep the same pace in the third set but it was Thailand’s excellent teamwork and combinations which held off the rivals’ attempts that helped Nakhon Ratchasima QminC VC take the set 25-19 for a 2-1 advantage.

In the fourth set, Zhetysu tightened their watch on their opponents’ wing attack. The Thai side worked on a number of solutions, varying their speed in attack, or enlisting the pipe plays. Each team knew how to respond to rallies and recycled plays, making for an exchange of side-outs. Toward the closing plays, Zhetysu firmed up their net defense, and connected from the wing to force the decider.

In the tie-breaker, Nakhon Ratchasima tried hard to come back. The scores were trading one by one in this highly-anticipated encounter that finally saw hosts Nakhon Ratchasima QminC VC capture the decider 15-10 and match.
Chatchu-on Moksri weighed in a team-high 31 points including 28 powerful attacks for Nakhon Ratchasima QminC VC, while Svetlana Parukova led Zhetysu with 23 points.
“It was a tough game for us. The team need to gain momentum back after a long period that we did not have the chance to play international matches. Zhetysu have good serving and blocking tactics. We need to adjust ourselves to different conditions from the lighting and wind inside the training hall to the competition venue. I think it affects our game a bit at the beginning. Zhetysu’s players were good in attack, allowing us pressure in second and fourth sets. However, I am glad that finally our team win”, said Chatchu-on Moksri, the top scorer in this match.

The number of Covid-19 cases crossed 12.25 million across Southeast Asia, with 43,584 new cases reported on Sunday (October 3), lower than Saturday’s tally at 48,705. New deaths are at 550, decreasing from Saturday’s number of 701. Total Covid-19 deaths in Asean are now at 264,671.
Malaysia is in talks to procure Molnupiravir, an experimental antiviral pill developed by United States’ Merck & Co for Covid-19 treatment. Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin said in a tweet “As we transition to living with Covid-19, we will be adding new, innovative treatment options to our arsenal in addition to vaccines.” The country reported 9,066 new cases and 109 deaths on Sunday, bringing cumulative cases in the country to 2,277,565 patients and total 26,565 deaths.
Meanwhile, Singapore government announced that the latest social restriction measures that have been imposed since September 27 and will last until October 24 have yet to show a result in Covid-19 curbing, as the number of community infections has doubled in the past 10 days.
Co-chair of the Covid-19 multi-ministry task force (MTF) Gan Kim Yong said on Saturday that the daily number of Covid-19 cases in Singapore may rise to more than 5,000 next week. However, those who have been fully vaccinated will be asymptomatic or have very mild symptoms and can recover swiftly at home.
