Arrests for espionage chill Hong Kong's thriving British community

Simon Cheng is still visibly tense when describing his detention in China. In 2019, Mr Cheng, a pro-democracy activist from Hong Kong and former employee of the British consulate there, was arrested after a business trip to mainland China.For 15 days he was interrogated and tortured, according to his account. Beijing confirmed his detention but denied that he had suffered mistreatment. When he was finally released, he no longer felt safe in Hong Kong and in early 2020 he fled to Britain and claimed asylum.“In some ways it's not difficult to adjust to a new life in the UK,” said Mr Cheng, 33. "But at the same time I can't abandon the fate of my hometown."His activism – and China's pursuit of him – didn't stop once he moved to London. Last year, Hong Kong authorities pla...

In a City of Ancient Jewish Mysticism, Israelis Arm for a Fight

Eyal Ben-Ari tugged at the heavy assault rifle hanging over his shoulder as he tiptoed out of his pink house at sunrise, hoping not to wake his wife or six children.Walking to synagogue in Safed, a hill town above the Sea of Galilee known for centuries as a center of kabbalah, or ancient Jewish mysticism, he said he still didn’t feel great about the gun.Sleeping with the rifle under his pillow, he worried about it being stolen. After his 13-year-old son came home with a toy replica, Mr. Ben-Ari considered returning the real thing, doubting his decision to join the newly formed civilian militia that had given him the weapon.“I feel like it’s very — artificial,” he said, struggling to find the right word in English, looking down at the gun. “It’s not human. It’s not life.”At the synagogue, m...

Are these drones too Chinese to pass US scrutiny in an anti-China moment?

A one-man startup believes it has an answer to the US government's concerns about Chinese-made drones dominating commercial sales in the American market.The CEO and founding partners of Anzu Robotics are all Americans, and the company is headquartered in Texas. The company's drones, which are expected to be used by law enforcement, utilities, architects and others, are assembled in Malaysia and run on servers located in Virginia.There's just one problem: Anzu has multiple, close ties to China and to DJI, the Shenzhen-based company targeted by legislative and regulatory efforts to curb Chinese drone sales in the United States.About half of Anzu's parts come from China. Much of its software originated there. Anzu has licensed its drone design to DJI, which receives payment...

Aid deliveries from Egypt to Gaza are expected to resume

Aid trucks from Egypt were expected to enter the devastated Gaza Strip on Sunday under a new U.S.-brokered deal to reopen a vital channel for humanitarian aid.Egypt has blocked aid from entering the enclave through its territory since Israel occupied the Rafah crossing - which provides access to southern Gaza - in early May. The two sides have traded blame for the closure of the crossing, even as aid has piled up on the Egyptian side. After pressure from the United States, Egypt announced Friday that it had agreed to divert trucks through the Israeli-controlled Kerem Shalom crossing, which is about two miles from the Rafah crossing, as a temporary measure.About 200 trucks carrying food and other aid from Egypt entered Gaza through Kerem Shalom on Sunday, according to Ahmad Ezzat, an Egyp...

Amateur historians have heard stories of a lost Tudor palace. Then, they dug it up.

For generations, the residents of Collyweston – a village in central England nestled against the River Welland – have passed down stories of a great Tudor palace, of royal processions through the valley below, of a king's mother who had called it home.For hundreds of years, the stories persisted, even as memory of where the palace stood faded. But the tradition suddenly came to life when a handful of amateur historians unearthed parts of the long-lost palace, buried under a few meters of earth. Historians at the University of York verified their findings.“We're a small village with a small group of enthusiasts, and what we've achieved here is nothing short of a miracle,” said Chris Close, 49, president of the Collyweston Historical and Preservation Society. “You know, it'...
