China’s military said on Sunday it had conducted “strike drills” in the sea and airspace around Taiwan in response to an unspecified “provocation” by the democratically-ruled island and the United States . Taiwan, which China claims as its own territory, has complained about repeated Chinese military activity nearby over the past three years or so as Beijing tries to pressure Taipei to accept Chinese sovereignty.

Ukraine gives the all clear after air raid alarms

Air raid sirens wailed in Kyiv and across Ukraine’s regions on Sunday morning, but no new Russian attacks were reported, officials said. Later the all-clear was given.

China’s Zhejiang, a large industrial province near Shanghai, is grappling with around one million new daily infections from COVID-19, a number expected to double in the coming days, the provincial government said on Sunday. Despite a record surge in cases across the country, China reported no deaths from COVID on the mainland in the five days to Saturday, the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention said on Sunday.

Hundreds of migrants prepared to camp out in the cold on Mexico’s northern border over Christmas, hoping for a quick reversal of US immigration restrictions as they brace for the bite of a winter storm ravaging the US . After the U.S. Supreme Court ruled this week that the restrictions known as Title 42 could temporarily remain in place, many migrants face a Christmas weekend of what Mexico’s weather service called a “mass of arctic air”.

The Taliban ban female NGO staff, jeopardizing aid efforts

Afghanistan’s Taliban administration on Saturday ordered all local and foreign NGOs to stop their female employees from working, in a move the United Nations said would affect humanitarian operations just as winter takes hold a country that is already in economic crisis. A letter from the economy ministry, confirmed by spokesman Abdulrahman Habib, said female employees of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) could not work until further notice because some had not adhered to the administration’s interpretation of the code Islamic clothing for women.

At least 3 dead and 4 missing in Spain after bus plunges off bridge into river

At least three people were killed and four were missing after a passenger bus veered off a bridge and plunged into a river in northwestern Spain, local emergency services said on Sunday.
