Newsfeed MOGADISHU, SOMALIA Acarbombkilledat least nine people and wounded many others at a restaurant in Somalia's capital on Tuesday, po- lice said. In addition to the deaths, at least eight people were wounded in the attack, said police of- ficer Mohamed Hussein. Security forces se- cured the area around the Banoda restaurant, in Mogadishu, after the attack, said another se- nior police officer Mo- hamed Abdi. The car with the bomb had been parked near Somalia's heavily guarded presi- dential palace when it exploded, he said. Although no group immediately claimed re- sponsibility for the at- tack, it bears the hall- marks of Somalia's Is- lamic extremist group al-Shabab, which fre- quently carries out at- tacks in Mogadishu and throughout Somalia.

The Denpasar District Court sentenced Tommy Schaefer to 18 years in prison and Heather Mack to 10 years for in- tentionally killing Sheila von Wiese-Mack while vacationing last August. The badly battered body was found stuffed in a suitcase inside the trunk of a taxi at the St. Regis Bali Resort. The three-judge panel said it decided to be le- nient toward Mack, 19, because she recently gave birth.

He also pleaded guilty to possessing methamphetamine and marijuana. Rudd faces up to seven years in prison on the threatening to kill charge, although his lawyer Craig Tuck said the prosecution case boils down to an angry phone call, and he is seeking a remedy that would involve no legal consequences for Rudd. NEW ZEALAND AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd pleads guilty to threatening to kill By Trisha Thomas and Colleen Barry The Associated Press CATANIA, SICILY Rescue seemed so close at hand. A ship with experience plucking migrants from un- seaworthy smuggler's boats had arrived soon after the distress call went out. But then the fishing trawler's navigator made a maneu- ver that would seal the fate of the 850 people crammed inside: Instead of easing up alongside the merchant ship, he rammed it. Relief gave way to panic. Terrified migrants rushed to one side, the trawler seized and capsized. What might have been another rescue in a period of un- precedented migrant cross- ings instead turned into a horrifying statistic: The deadliest shipwreck ever in the Mediterranean Sea. The accounts of sur- vivors who arrived early Tuesday in this Sicilian port 48 hours after the di- saster offered new details of the tragedy. The trauma- tized witnesses corrobo- rated a death toll of at least 800, making the capsiz- ing "the deadliest incident in the Mediterranean that we have ever recorded," the U.N. refugee agency said. Just 28 migrants, all men and boys in their teens, sur- vived. And despite the enor- mous toll, only 24 bod- ies were recovered — fre- quently the case when ships sink on the high seas, espe- cially when most passen- gers are locked below deck, as was the case Saturday night. Aid agencies were quick to issue another warning: At the current pace, 2015 is set to be the deadliest year on record for migrants making the perilous cross- ing as they flee war, repres- sion and poverty in the Mid- dle East and Africa. In April alone, 1,300 have died. The International Or- ganization for Migration said the toll for the year could top 30,000 — nearly 10 times the 2014 total of 3,279, itself a record. "We just want to make sure people understand how much more ... rapid these deaths have been coming this year," said Joel Millman, the IOM spokesman. Italian ships have res- cued well over 10,000 peo- ple over the past two weeks, an unprecedented number for such a short period, au- thorities say. The rescues continued Tuesday, with an- other 112 migrants, all men, picked up in a deflating rub- ber life raft in waters some 50 miles north of the Lib- yan capital, Tripoli. On Tuesday, seamen who participated in saving sur- vivors of the weekend cap- sizing told tales of near-mi- raculous rescue. Among the ships to ar- rive in the pre-dawn hours Sunday was the coast guard ship Gregoretti, which dis- patched medics in two din- ghies. By then, the trawler had already disappeared into the sea. "We found, literally, a floating cemetery. Bod- ies were everywhere. With the dinghies we had to lit- erally slalom among the corpses," said Enrico Vi- tello, a 22-year-old medic from the Order of Malta. Hearing screams, they killed the engines and shined a spotlight, locating a migrant floating in the sea. "We got close by and rescued him," said Gi- useppe Pomilla, a 30-year- old medic. "He asked our names and where we were from. We told him we were Italians and came to rescue him. He was so happy." Soon after, a boy floating in the sea grabbed their at- tention. "We couldn't understand if he was alive or dead. He had his eyes wide open looking at us. He was not blinking, not moving or talking. We only realized he was alive when he grabbed us suddenly," Pomilla said. When they took him on board, he "exploded in tears," the medic said. Among the survivors were two alleged smug- glers, who were detained for investigation of aiding and abetting illegal immi- gration. The Tunisian navi- gator, identified as 27-year- old Mohammed Alì Malek, could also face multiple counts of manslaughter and causing a shipwreck — the same charges the captain of the capsized Concordia luxury cruise liner was con- victed of earlier this year. Prosecutors said that af- ter the trawler's captain struck the Portuguese- flagged container ship sent to rescue it, terrified mi- grants rushed to one side of the overcrowded boat, which was already unbal- anced from the collision. The trawler pitched in the water before finally tipping over and sinking. Most on board were un- able to escape because they were locked below deck on the trawler's lower two lev- els. Hundreds more were squeezed on the upper deck. "The survivors said that the person who was steer- ing the boat, their smug- gler, was navigating badly, and he did a bad move that made it crash against the bigger ship," UNHCR spokeswoman Carlotta Sami said in Sicily. "This obviously created a prob- lem because the people on the lower decks couldn't get out and the boat destabi- lized, until it capsized."

By Martin Crutsinger The Associated Press WASHINGTON The U.S. Treasury Department says it has taken action against a major affiliate of the Ya- maguchi-gumi, Japan's largest and most promi- nent "yakuza" crime syn- dicate. Treasury says it has tar- geted the Kodo-kai and its chairman Teruaki Takeu- chi, with designations as "significant transnational criminal operations." The designation freezes any assets held in the United States by the organization and its chairman. It also prohibits U.S. firms and in- dividuals from doing busi- ness with them. John E. Smith, the acting director of Treasury's Of- fice of Foreign Assets Con- trol, says the new sanctions build on the agency's efforts to undermine the yakuza fi- nancially and protect the U.S. financial system from the crime syndicate's illicit activities. President Barack Obama issued an executive order in 2011 targeting the yakuza and authorizing sanctions against members and sup- porters. WASHINGTON, D.C. US Treasury freezes assets of Japanese 'yakuza' By Vivian Salama The Associated Press ON THE BZEBIZ BRIDGE, IRAQ In the two weeks since militants from the Islamic State group overran cen- tral Ramadi, thousands of people have streamed out of the city, fleeing the bru- tal clashes between the ex- tremists and Iraqi security forces. With the announcement late Monday that the Iraqi military has retaken key areas in and around the city, the tide has suddenly shifted: Thousands are turning around and head- ing back toward Ramadi, turning this rickety, make- shift bridge over the Eu- phrates River into a scene of chaos and clogged traffic. Through the heat and blinding dust, men and women loaded down with suitcases and bags crossed the bridge west of Bagh- dad on Tuesday. Some led livestock on ropes. Others pushed carts carrying chil- dren or the elderly and a few meager possessions. Many said they had no- where to go. In war-weary Iraq, residents of cities like Baghdad view the mostly Sunni residents of Anbar province with suspicion. One man who was still headed away from Ramadi, the capital of Anbar prov- ince, bellowed a warning to those who were streaming back toward it. "Turn around!" he cau- tioned as he crossed into Baghdad province. "It's not safe!" Iraqi security forces — supported by airstrikes from a U.S.-led coalition — have been making gains in recent weeks to take back territory seized last year by extremists from the self-de- scribed Islamic State. Iraqi troops were fresh off a vic- tory last month in the city of Tikrit when the mili- tants pushed into Ramadi, prompting some 114,000 residents to run, according to the U.N. Buoyed by the strong air campaign and volun- teer fighters, the military made a quick and decisive response in Ramadi. Still, residents took no chances and fled the city in unprec- edented numbers. In the days that followed, however, some changed their minds and believed they were better off at home. That has spurring the frantic two-way traffic on the bridge — a temporary structure erected in place of one bombed by the mil- itants. The new one was meant to support no more than the occasional fruit- and-vegetable cart heading for Baghdad, whose out- skirts are about 40 miles to the east. "We now have more peo- ple returning (to Anbar) than those coming," said army Brig. Gen. Abdullah Jareh Wahib.

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on this property.
