Cargo8 ship capsizes in Yangtze, casualties unknownLocal authorities in the city of Nanjing are bracing9 for potential environmental problems following the sinking of a cargo ship this morning on the Yangtze River.
Local maritime10 authorities say the ship was carrying 200 tonnes worth of a strong, caustic11 liquid when it went down.
The actual chemical has not been identified.
More floods expected to ravage13 middle and lower reaches of Yangtze riverChinese flood control authorities are warning of the potential for heavy flooding along the Yangtze River in the coming weeks.
The National Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters has issued the warning amid heavy rains which have been pounding the central and southern regions of China over the past few weeks.
Yang Kun with the National Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters Office says many rivers and lakes are rising above warning levels.
"The main streams in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, including Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake, have witnessed a higher water levels this year. According to weather reports, the water level in Poyang Lake will continue to rise, and is already approaching the alert level of 19 meters. The Xin River and the Lechang River, the main sources of water for Poyang Lake, are already above alert levels."So far flooding across China this year has left over 100 people dead or missing.
It's also knocked down around 35-thousand buildings across 27 different cities.
Economic losses are already estimated at close to 30-billion yuan.
Global crackdown on illegal wildlife trade scores great successChinese wildlife officials are touting14 the success of a major crackdown launched last month to try to stem the illegal trade of endangered species.
Chinese authorities have teamed up with 64 different countries around the world as part of the crackdown.
Meng Xianlin with the Chinese Forestry15 Bureau says they've managed to seize hundreds of tons of illegal animal parts in over 300 separate cases.
"The crackdown is laid out internationally in a unified16 way, but specific tasks are organized and planned by the different countries themselves. A unified global action plan has been set up. An organization has also been set up in Bangkok for coordinating17 among the different countries. Four law enforcement networks from South East Asia, South Asia, Africa and Europe will coordinate18 countries within their own sphere."Meng Xianlin says they're also using new techniques in their crackdown.
"We have applied19 a new communication platform for customs' enforcement and international police, in order to share information. We are also working with new technology to help in our approach to the crackdown."Chinese authorities have been actively20 trying to shut down the trade in illegal animal parts, launching a number of campaigns specifically connected to the ivory trade, which is threatening the extinction21 of wild elephant herds22 in Africa.
China's UN Peacekeeping force to step up efforts to protect civiliansAnchor:
A series of special courses are taking place this week in Beijing, with around 3-dozen Chinese personnel undergoing special training into how to protect civilians24 in a war zone.
CRI's Poornima Weerasekara caught up with some of the people training Chinese peacekeepers for UN missions abroad.
Reporter:
This year marks the 25th anniversary since China started contributing peacekeepers to United Nations peacekeeping missions across the globe.
Over the past decade, there has been a dramatic surge in the number of Chinese peacekeepers going abroad, with over 2-thouand troops, police officers and military observers deployed25 in ten different peacekeeping operations in North and sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East and Cyprus.
China is currently the largest contributor of peacekeeping troops among the five permanent members of the UN Security Council.
China's contributions to UN peacekeeping forces have been primarily engineers and medical staff building infrastructure27 and providing healthcare, rather than engaging in military activities.
However, Chinese authorities want to expand the scope of their on-the-ground operations to better protect civilians.
A new training program, launched in collaboration28 with the United Nations Women's Program, is giving a group of Chinese peacekeepers a chance to sharpen their skills on mitigating29 sexual violence, child protection and their understanding of the UN guidelines on the protection of civilians.
Zhou Zhe, Director of China's Peacekeeping Centre with the Ministry30 of Defense31 says protecting people in conflict zones is very challenging.
"In some situations, militants32 or combatants may hide their weapons and don civilian23 attire33 and hide in civilian areas. If we inadvertently protect such people, there is a risk that we might also get pulled into the conflict".
Cai Hui is a senior instructor34 at the peacekeeping center who has served on three-separate UN peacekeeping missions in the Democratic republic of Congo.
He says peacekeepers under the UN flag are often tasked with various duties.
"Our mission was to construct the damaged bridges and the roads in Congo. Also some quick impact projects – we helped to restore the airfields35 and helipads One important task was also to help the locals to build some IDP camps because many of them are displaced, they have no place to go. So that is our priority task."The number of fatal attacks on UN peacekeepers has been rising in recent years.
Cai Hui says UN peacekeepers often find themselves in the middle of war-zones.
"Actually, there are a lot of attacks and ambushes36 not only against the civilians but also against peacekeepers. In 2012, when M23 occupied the city of Gouma, there were riots or chaos37 all around the country. At that time I was on a trip to Boonia. When I arrived at the airport I was told that we cannot leave the airport because there were attacks on the streets and direct attacks against UN peacekeepers. So we stayed at the airport for 4 days and 4 nights. So we didn't have anything to eat. They only gave us some combat rations26. We heard gunshots everywhere around us."The Chinese government has 560 million US dollars pledged to the UN peacekeeping budget this year, the 6th largest contributor.
Chinese authorities say their missions abroad under the UN flag demonstrate the country's global responsibility.

DPRK hit by worst drought in 100 yearsNorth Korea is said to be suffering its worst drought in a century, severely39 curtailing40 its agricultural production.
North Korean official news agency KCNA is reporting that close to one-third of this year's rice crop across the country may end up being unharvestable.
Farmers in certain provinces in North Korea say as much as 80-percent of their rice crops won't survive.
"This is the first drought damage in my twenty years of farming experience. Normally the rice seedlings42 should have five or six leaves and be about 30 centimetres high by this time. But as you see, the seedling41 is too small to do rice transplanting. We had already ploughed the rice field and did rice transplanting, but they dried out, so we ploughed again and we are planting maize43."Water levels in reservoirs and rivers are also rapidly dwindling44.
Weather officials in North Korea say temperatures through May were 5 to 7-degrees higher than average.
June and July is the main crop planting season in North Korea.
Last year, the country was also hit by severe drought.
However, official figures in North Korea claim food production still increased by nearly 50-thousand tons year-on-year last year.
Death toll45 of MERS in S Korea reaches 23The death toll from the MERS outbreak in South Korea has risen to 23.
Three more people have died from the virus, while three others have been confirmed as infected.
Over 160 people have now contracted the virus.
Despite the rise in deaths and new cases of the virus, Kwon Deok-cheol with the South Korean Health Ministry says they're confident the spread of MERS is being contained.
"According to the statement from the meeting of the IHR Emergency Committee, the committee concluded that the conditions for a public health emergency of international concern have not been met in South Korea. In addition, the committee noted46 that available evidence on genetic47 sequencing did not identify any significant changes in the viruses obtained from cases in the Republic of Korea compared to viruses from the Middle East."Meanwhile, health authorities in South Korea have put out a new plea for people to donate blood.
Blood supplies in Seoul have been dwindling, with people said to be concerned about going into medical facilities to donate blood.
MERS' infections in South Korea are almost exclusively linked to health care facilities.
S. Korea approves new PM, ending 2-month vacancySouth Korean lawmakers have voted to approve Justice Minister Hwang Kyo-ahn as the country’s new Prime Minister.
The 2nd highest political position in South Korea behind only the President had been vacant for the past 2-months.
Hwang Kyo-ahn was hand-picked by President Park Geun-hye to be his successor.
However, members of the main opposition49 had been holding up his nomination50, saying he too has a checkered51 past, which has included allegations if influence peddling52 and an attempt to avoid South Korea's mandatory53 2-year military service when he was younger.
Blasts claimed by IS kill 31 at Shiite sites in YemenReports are suggesting over 30 people have been killed and dozens others wounded in simultaneous bombings at Shiite mosques54 and offices in the Yemeni capital Sana'a.
"During Maghrib prayer [night prayer], when we were passing from here we heard the explosion and moved towards it, there were injured people, cars and shops were on fire. I pulled out two of the victims myself, one of them was dead and the other was unconscious."It appears the bombs have been planted at the entrances of the mosques, and were timed to go off as worshippers flocked in for the prayers on the eve of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan.
The Islamic State is claiming responsibility for the attacks.
The Islamic State, a radical55 Sunni Muslim group, says the bombings are "revenge" against the Shiite Houthis, who now control much of Sana'a and the rest of Yemen, which is a Sunni-dominated country.
The attacks come as the United Nations attempts to push forward peace talks between Yemen's exiled government and the Houthi rebels in Geneva.
Police Describe US Shooting at church 'a hate crime'
Nine people are dead following a mass shooting at a church in the US state of South Carolina.
Charleston Police Chief Greg Mullen says they're currently treating the shooting as a potential hate-crime.
"We are looking for a white male, approximately 21-years old, sandy blonde hair and he obviously is extremely dangerous and what we are asking is that if anyone in the community has information about this particular individual that he contact law enforcement immediately."The shooting has taken place during a Wednesday evening prayer service in the Emmanuel Methodist church.
Police say there are survivors.
However, they're not disclosing how many people survived, or the identities of those who were killed.
The church itself was established by the African-American community in Charleston in 1816, well before the abolition58 of slavery.
A shake-up is underway within the Palestinian unity government, which was formed just a year ago.
Observers are suggesting the internal discord60 could spell the end of the political ties between Hamas in the Gaza Strip and Fatah in the West Bank.
CRI's Qi Zhi has more.
Reporter:
A Palestinian official says Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah handed his resignation to President Mahmoud Abbas on Wednesday afternoon, and Abbas ordered Hamdallah to form a new government.
Abbas announced on Tuesday that the current unity government would resign within 24 hours.
Palestine Liberation Organization official Ashraf Khatib says the unity government has faced tremendous difficulties with both Israeli policies against the Palestinians and internal issues.
"There was a war that took place against Gaza. We have also the problem that is taking place in the West Bank, including east Jerusalem, the settlement activities, and Israeli policies weakening the government regarding withholding61 the Palestinian tax money. The other problems are also the reconstruction62 in Gaza, and preparing for the presidential and parliamentary elections, yet these issues, especially the internal issues, have been difficult in the last year or so."Talk of reshuffling the government began after it emerged that Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip, has been holding separate, indirect talks with Israel on ways to firm up an informal ceasefire agreement reached last August, ending the 50-day war in Gaza.
Professor Mukhaimar Abu Saada with Al-Azhar University in Gaza says if the government resigns, it means the Palestinian reconciliation has reached a dead end.
"The government came as the result of Palestinian consensus63 between Hamas and Fatah, and since this consensus no longer exists because Hamas is going its own way with Israel, Abu Mazen (Abbas) and Fatah feel that there is no need for this government to function anymore. President Mahmoud Abbas feels that any deal between Hamas and Israel will deepen the rift64 between West Bank and Gaza, and will probably push Gaza to become a separate entity65."After Abbas' announcement on Tuesday, both Hamas and Islamic Jihad condemned66 the unilateral decision to change government, saying they were not consulted.
Professor Abu Saada says Hamas has a concern that a new government may not deal with Gaza problems, and from a constitutional prospective67, Hamas will not be able to establish its own government in Gaza.
But PLO official Khatib says discussions to form a new government will include consultations68 with all Palestinian factions69.
"We are talking about a government that will have specific tasks, among these tasks is the internal issues in terms of the reconciliation, the reconstruction of Gaza, and also preparing for the presidential and parliamentary elections. What we are planning to do is trying to found a consensus government, with representatives from different parties, and that might help in tackling some of the difficulties this current government has been facing."The current unity government was formed last June after the reconciliation between the two major Palestinian factions, Fatah and Hamas.
It it expected to continue to function until a new government is formed.

Guterres says refugee number hits 60 millionThe United Nations now estimates the number of refugees around the world hit close to 60-million last year.
The UN High Commissioner70 for Refugees, Antonio Guterres, says large number of them are people trying to avoid conflict-zones.
"Indeed many areas of the world are today in a completely chaotic71 situation and the result is this staggering escalation72 of displacement73, this staggering escalation of human suffering because each displaced person is a tragic74 story."The UNHCR says close to 4 million Syrian refugees are now spread across 107 countries last year.
That made it the leading source of refugees - pushing Afghanistan, which had held that status for more than 30 years, down to second place with 2.6 million refugees.
Guterres is warning UN aid agencies are no longer equipped to deal with the rising number of refugees around the world.
10500 housing places to be added for migrants: FranceFrench authorities have unveiled plans to create over 10-thousand housing units specifically for migrants.
5-thousand of the units will be dedicated76 specifically for people who have been granted asylum77 in France.
The other 5-thousand will be for people who are currently going through the asylum application process.
French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve says the current influx78 of migrants landing on European shores has prompted them to make the move.
"I am convinced that a solid and responsible solution at the European level calls for both a fairer distribution of asylum seekers who need protection as well as tougher control of the European Union's exterior79 borders. The seriousness of the situation requires us to adapt our approach in France."The number of asylum seekers in France has nearly doubled over the past 7-years.
Meanwhile, the ultra-right wing government of Hungary has announced plans to establish a physical barrier along its border with Serbia to keep migrants out.
Hungarian authorities claim around 95-percent of the migrants who have entered Hungary this year have done so through Serbia.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's government has maintained power for the past 5-years on an anti-immigration platform, even though the country remains80 a member of the European Union, which has rules allowing for the free-flow of people within the EU.
"Cuban Five" to visit AfricaThe "Cuban Five," a group of intelligence agents jailed in the United States for over 16 years, is set to visit three different African countries starting this weekend.
The five are due to go on tours through South Africa, Namibia and Angola, meeting with local groups and celebrities81.
The "Cuban Five" have been invited to Africa by the African National Congress, South Africa's ruling party.
The five Cuban agents were arrested by the FBI in Miami in 1998, and were later convicted of espionage82 and other charges connected to the infiltration83 of Cuban-American groups in Miami.
The last of the group were released in December as part of a prisoner swap84 connected to the thawing85 of diplomatic ties between the US and Cuba.

Headline NewsNPC says decision on HK universal suffrage to stand despite vetoChina's top legislature, the National People's Congress, says its decision on how to bring in electoral changes in Hong Kong last year will not be changed, despite today's vote by Hong Kong lawmakers.
Hong Kong lawmakers rejected a proposal to create universal suffrage to elect the city's Chief Executive earlier today.
28 of the 37 lawmakers voted against the proposed changes.
Under the proposed changes, all eligible91 voters in Hong Kong would have been given the opportunity to vote for a candidate which had been selected by a committee.
With the rejection92 of the proposal, it means current structure for electing the city's Chief Executive is likely to remain in-place.
This involves a select group of electors chosen from different areas of Hong Kong deciding who the city's Chief will be.

Police sentenced for death for producing drugsA former police officer in Liaoning has been sentenced to death following his conviction for producing drugs.
The former cop and his partner have been sentenced to death by a court in the city of Dandong.
The officer teamed up with a convicted drug manufacturer who was released from prison in 2011.
They established three meth labs in rural areas of Liaoning and Inner Mongolia, producing more than 100-kilograms of the drug during the year-and-a-half they were in business together.
It's not known if the two plan to appeal their death sentences.
Denmark kicks off parliamentary electionsParliamentary elections are underway in Denmark.
More than 4-million people are eligible to vote in the election.
The campaign itself has been focused primarily on immigration.
Both Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt's left-leaning alliance and the center-right opposition have promised to further tighten94 Denmark's controls on immigration.
At issue is so-called 'welfare tourism,' or people attempting to immigrate95 to Denmark to take advantage of the country's comparatively generous social welfare system for the unemployed96.
Polling ahead of the election is suggesting it will be a very close race between the ruling left-wing alliance and the center-right opposition.
Results of the election are due out on Friday morning, Beijing time.

Qihoo 360 likely to relist in Chinese A share market as buyouts hit record highChinese internet giant Qihoo 360 appears poised100 to delist in New York.
Qihoo CEO Zhou Hongyi, along with CITIC securities and Golden Brick Capital are among a group of investors101 who have offered to buy all of Qihoo's shares in the US.

China vows104 to boost foreign trade amid declinesThe Chinese government now says it's launching a new internal coordination105 program amid concerns about the decline in foreign trade.
Chinese Ministry of Commerce spokesperson Shen Danyang says they're working on a number of different plans to increase trade.
"Our focus is to help ease burdens for Chinese companies and boost their growth. Currently, we are working on policies in three aspects based on Chinese firms' concerns. One is to cut procedural charges during import and export. Secondly107, we are trying to find a better solution for enterprises' financing concerns. Meanwhile, we need to make overseas trading more convenient, including the set-up of cross-border e-commerce platforms."At the same time, Shen says weak global demand and currency devaluations are also contributing to what the Commerce ministry describes as a "grim" situation when it comes to trade.
China's foreign trade dipped by nearly 10 percent year on year in May, with imports plummeting108 over 18 percent.

This is part of a broader plan announced by the Chinese cabinet this week to cut red-tape and make life easier for start-ups in China.
The plans also include making it easier for fledgling companies to secure financing.
Rules for going public are being relaxed, and a new board is going to be launched in Shanghai specifically for emerging and creative firms.

The film will be made in Chinese and English with an initial budget of 20-million US dollars.
It's set to be distributed internationally.
The film will be the fourth co-production under a joint133 agreement signed last month between China and India during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to China.

Brian Williams will stay at NBC: Media reportsIt's being reported embattled NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams is going to be moving over to MSNBC after his 6-month suspension comes to an end.
His exact role with the cable news broadcaster isn't clear at this point.
NBC Nightly News will continue to be hosted by Lester Holt, who took over for Williams after he was suspended by NBC after he repeated false claims that he was in a helicopter which was forced down by enemy fire during the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
Moving over to MSNBC won't be a major transition for the 55-year old Williams.
He was the principal news anchor for MSNBC when it launched in 1994.
MSNBC's numbers have been slumping134 this year, with many viewers moving over to more centrist news and talk programming on ABC and CBS.
MSNBC has morphed over time to become the left-wing alternative to the right-wing slant135 presented on Fox News.
US first lady in Milan to promote healthy eatingUS First Lady Michelle Obama is now in Milan, Italy promoting her campaign to get children to eat healthy.
"And kids like you, you guys have to do your part. You gotta eat your vegetables, yeah, sorry about that, but you gotta have some vegetables."Michelle Obama has taken part in a cooking class in the American School in Milan.
In pressing to get the children at the school to eat their veggies, she's also asking that they don't simply stuff their faces.
"You will find that if you are talking over dinner, you are actually paying more attention to how fast you are eating, so instead of gobbling your food, you are actually tasting it, and you probably eat less because you are not just shoveling. Shoveling is probably not a good thing. We don't shovel136. Well, the President shovels137 sometimes."Michelle Obama is on a week-long trip to Europe.
Her stop in Milan is for the opening of the US Pavilion at this year's World Expo.
Michelle Obama launched her "Let's Move" campaign in the US 5-years ago to try to combat childhood obesity138 rates in the United States.
