Suspek dalam serangan kereta Munich ada ‘motivasi Islamis,’ kata pendakwa raya

(SeaPRwire) - Suspek yang dituduh mencederakan lebih 30 orang dalam serangan kereta di Munich nampaknya bermotifkan ekstremisme Islam, kata pendakwa raya Jumaat.Lelaki Afghanistan berusia 24 tahun itu, yang memperkenalkan diri sebagai bina badan dan model kecergasan, telah ditangkap Khamis selepas dia memandu Mini Coopernya ke bahagian belakang demonstrasi kesatuan sekerja. Kejadian itu berlaku berhampiran tempat pemimpin dunia — termasuk Naib Presiden Kamala Harris dan Presiden Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy — dijangka berkumpul untuk Persidangan Keselamatan Munich.Pendakwa raya Gabriele Tilmann berkata suspek menyebut "Allahu Akbar," atau "Allah Maha Besar," kepada polis dan kemudian berdoa selepas ditangkap — yang mendorong jabatan yang menyiasat ekstremisme dan keganasan untuk mengambil kes itu dengan serta-merta.Dalam soal siasat, dia mengaku sengaja memandu ke dalam demonstrasi dan "memberi penjelasan yang akan saya ringkaskan sebagai motivasi keagamaan," kata Tilmann, menurut Associated Press. "Mengikut semua yang kita ketahui buat masa ini, saya berani mengatakan motivasi Islamis." Bagaimanapun, tiada petunjuk suspek berada dalam mana-mana organisasi, katanya.Tilmann juga mengumumkan Jumaat bahawa suspek, yang tiba di Jerman sebagai pemohon suaka pada 2016 dan tinggal di Munich, memuat naik kandungan dengan rujukan keagamaan — seperti "Allah, lindungi kami selalu" — di media sosial.Serangan itu menyebabkan 36 orang cedera, dan suspek kini menghadapi 36 tuduhan cubaan membunuh serta kecederaan badan dan gangguan berbahaya terhadap lalu lintas jalan raya. Timbalan ketua pejabat polis jenayah negeri Bavaria, Guido Limmer, berkata penyiasat menemui sembang, nampaknya dengan saudara-mara, di mana suspek menulis "mungkin saya tidak akan berada di sini lagi esok," tetapi setakat ini mereka tidak menemui apa-apa yang menunjukkan persiapan konkrit untuk serangan itu atau orang lain terlibat.Lelaki itu tidak mempunyai sabitan terdahulu dan mempunyai permit kediaman yang sah. Tilmann juga berkata tiada petunjuk penyakit mental.Presiden Jerman Frank-Walter Steinmeier dilaporkan meletakkan bunga di tempat kejadian serangan Jumaat pagi, di mana beliau mengutuk "kekejaman perbuatan ini" dan berkata ia "meninggalkan kita terkejut".Seorang jurucakap naib presiden memberitahu Associated Press pada Selasa bahawa Harris dan Presiden Zelenskyy akan bertemu di luar persidangan, di mana perang Rusia-Ukraine yang sedang berlangsung kemungkinan akan menjadi tumpuan.’ Rachel Wolf dan Morgan Phillips menyumbang kepada laporan ini.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

Hamas Akan Bebaskan Seorang Lagi Warga Amerika dalam Pelepasan Tebuan Sabtu Ini Berita

Hamas Akan Bebaskan Seorang Lagi Warga Amerika dalam Pelepasan Tebuan Sabtu Ini

(SeaPRwire) - Kumpulan pengganas Palestin Hamas telah membebaskan tebusan yang dijadualkan untuk dibebaskan pada hari Sabtu, termasuk warga Amerika-Israel Sagui Dekel-Chen, berikutan kebimbangan selama beberapa hari bahawa perjanjian gencatan senjata dengan Israel mungkin gagal.Warga Rusia-Israel Alexander Troufanov dan warga Argentina-Israel Yair Horn, yang bersama-sama dengan Dekel-Chen telah diculik oleh Hamas dari Kibbutz Nir Oz pada 7 Oktober 2023, juga akan dibebaskan pada hari Sabtu, yang menandakan 497 hari dalam tahanan.Dekel-Chen merupakan warga Amerika kedua yang dibebaskan oleh Hamas sejak Presiden Donald Trump kembali memegang jawatan, berikutan pembebasan Keith Siegel pada 1 Februari.Kebimbangan antarabangsa mengenai kestabilan gencatan senjata mencapai tahap tertinggi selepas Hamas – secara langsung melanggar perjanjian – selepas mendakwa bahawa Israel telah melanggar perjanjian dengan tidak memudahkan pengangkutan bantuan kemanusiaan dan menyasarkan rakyat Palestin dalam serangan udara.Trump kemudian berkata pada hari Isnin bahawa Israel harus membatalkan perjanjian gencatan senjata jika Hamas tidak menyerahkan semua tebusan yang masih tinggal, bukan hanya tiga yang dijadualkan dibebaskan pada 15 Februari di bawah perjanjian gencatan senjata.Kebimbangan meningkat apabila Perdana Menteri Israel Benjamin Netanyahu pada hari Selasa juga menyeru Hamas untuk membebaskan tebusan pada hari Sabtu, tetapi tidak menyatakan sama ada beliau merujuk kepada semua tebusan atau tiga yang telah dipersetujui sebelum ini."Pendirian rasmi Israel ialah kita mempunyai perjanjian yang perlu dipenuhi," kata Jeneral Mejar IDF (persaraan) Yaakov Amidror mengesahkan pada hari Khamis semasa perbincangan yang dianjurkan oleh Jewish Institute for National Security of America (JINSA)."Kami tidak [ingin] menggoyangkan keadaan dengan menambah permintaan [Trump]," katanya. "Soalannya ialah, adakah Hamas akan memenuhi perjanjian dari pihaknya dan membebaskan tiga tebusan itu?"Saya rasa Hamas tidak akan mengambil risiko sekarang apabila inilah suasana di Washington," tambah Amidror. "Tetapi kita tidak tahu."Hanya 16 daripada 33 tebusan yang dijadualkan dibebaskan semasa fasa pertama gencatan senjata selama 42 hari telah dibebaskan.Berikutan minggu pertama perjanjian yang bermasalah, yang menyaksikan pembebasan tujuh tebusan, tiga tebusan setiap minggu dijadualkan dibebaskan di bawah terma yang dipersetujui oleh Hamas dan Israel. 14 tebusan terakhir akan dibebaskan bersama-sama pada 22 Februari, menandakan minggu terakhir fasa pertama.IDF telah menilai bahawa sekurang-kurangnya lapan tebusan yang dijadualkan dibebaskan dalam fasa pertama telah terkorban semasa ditawan oleh Hamas, walaupun bilangannya mungkin lebih tinggi kerana nasib Ariel, yang berusia empat tahun ketika diculik bersama abangnya Kfir, yang berusia sembilan bulan – masih belum disahkan oleh IDF.Hamas mendakwa mereka terbunuh akibat serangan udara Israel, walaupun IDF mengatakan ia tidak mempunyai bukti untuk menyokong dakwaan ini.Perantara sepatutnya mula berunding terma untuk pembebasan 65 tebusan yang masih tinggal pada awal bulan ini, walaupun Amidror berkata beliau tidak percaya ia telah bermula secara rasmi. Sekurang-kurangnya 26 daripada mereka yang dijadualkan dibebaskan dalam fasa kedua dinilai telah terkorban.Dalam beberapa minggu kebelakangan ini, tebusan yang dibebaskan telah melaporkan bahawa mereka diseksa, disoal siasat dan kekurangan makanan semasa ditawan oleh Hamas. Dan keadaan tebusan yang dibebaskan minggu lalu mencetuskan kemarahan kerana ramai yang menunjukkan persamaan rupa ketiga-tiga lelaki itu dengan imej mereka yang terselamat daripada Holocaust.Lima warga Amerika lagi masih ditawan, termasuk Edan Alexander, 19, seorang askar IDF dan satu-satunya warga Amerika yang masih dinilai masih hidup, walaupun dia tidak dijadualkan untuk dibebaskan sehingga fasa kedua gencatan senjata.Askar IDF Itay Chen, 19, dan Omer Neutra, 22, dipercayai telah terbunuh oleh Hamas pada 7 Oktober 2023, dan mayat mereka terus ditahan bersama Gadi dan Judi Haggai, yang juga terbunuh semasa serangan pengganas berhampiran kibbutz mereka.Siegel, 65, mengucapkan terima kasih kepada Trump atas bantuannya dalam mendapatkan pembebasannya tetapi menggesa beliau untuk memastikan gencatan senjata dipatuhi dan berkata, "Kepimpinan dan kekuatan anda akan memastikan perjanjian dihormati oleh semua pihak – itulah yang akan membolehkan semua... tebusan pulang ke rumah kepada keluarga mereka," tambahnya.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

Ketua badan pengawas PBB mengatakan UNRWA mengupah orang ‘yang menyokong keganasan’ “`

(SeaPRwire) - BANGSA-BANGSA BERSATU - Presiden telah membuat langkah besar dalam dasar luar negara dalam beberapa minggu pertama beliau memegang jawatan, termasuk memotong pembiayaan AS kepada Agensi Bantuan dan Kerja PBB untuk Pelarian Palestin di Timur Dekat (UNRWA) yang kontroversi. UNRWA telah lama menghadapi tuduhan hubungan dengan pengganas, yang semakin meningkat sepanjang perang Israel-Hamas yang bermula dengan pembunuhan beramai-ramai pada 7 Oktober 2023.Bekas Presiden Joe Biden pada mulanya memotong pembiayaan AS kepada UNRWA pada Januari 2024, beberapa bulan selepas perang, selepas Israel menuduh anggota agensi PBB itu mengambil bahagian dalam serangan kejam Hamas.Pengarah Eksekutif UN Watch, Hillel Neuer berkata rakyat Amerika perlu tahu bahawa sesetengah agensi PBB, seperti UNRWA, diasaskan atas "niat baik altruistik," tetapi telah "berubah menjadi sesuatu yang bertentangan sepenuhnya dengan apa yang sepatutnya."UNRWA ditubuhkan pada tahun 1949 "untuk menjalankan program bantuan langsung dan kerja-kerja untuk pelarian Palestin," menurut laman web agensi itu. Walau bagaimanapun, Neuer menafikan status pelarian Palestin dan mengatakan bahawa cadangan pengambilalihan Gaza oleh Presiden Trump telah mendedahkan "kebenaran yang telah disembunyikan."Neuer menunjukkan bahawa penyokong UNRWA dan pengkritik cadangan presiden telah menuduh Trump "mencabut mereka [Palestin] daripada rumah dan tanah mereka," yang bermaksud bahawa "mereka bukan pelarian." Gaza, yang diiktiraf oleh PBB sebagai sebahagian daripada "Negara Palestin," akan dianggap sebagai rumah mereka di bawah kritikan ini, menafikan status pelarian mereka.Walau bagaimanapun, masalah dengan UNRWA melangkaui definisi yang samar-samar. Neuer memberitahu Digital bahawa agensi itu "secara sistematik menggunakan individu yang menyokong keganasan." Beliau menunjuk kepada Fathi al-Sharif, yang berkhidmat sebagai pengetua sekolah yang dijalankan oleh UNRWA, serta kesatuan guru agensi itu di Lubnan."Kami tahu bahawa ketua sistem pendidikan UNRWA, iaitu, guru, pengetua sekolah dan ketua kesatuan guru sebanyak 2,000 guru di Lubnan, ialah seorang lelaki bernama Fathi al-Sharif… beliau adalah ketua Hamas di Lubnan," kata Neuer, sambil menambah bahawa wang pembayar cukai Amerika membiayai al-Sharif dan "seluruh sistem pendidikan yang diuruskannya."Dalam kes Suhail al-Hindi, bekas ketua kesatuan kakitangan tempatan UNRWA di Gaza," bahawa ia menggantung dan memecat al-Hindi selepas pengumuman bahawa beliau telah "dipilih untuk jawatan politik dengan Hamas."Sebagai tindak balas kepada permintaan untuk komen, UNRWA memberitahu Digital bahawa ia "melarang sebarang jenis penglibatan kakitangan dalam kumpulan militan atau bersenjata. Sebagai wakil PBB, sebarang penglibatan dalam kumpulan yang mempromosikan diskriminasi atau keganasan melanggar prinsip berkecuali dan sangat membahayakan keupayaan UNRWA untuk menyediakan perkhidmatan dan perlindungan kepada pelarian."UNRWA merujuk kes al-Hindi secara khusus, sambil menyatakan ia "juga memberhentikan seorang lagi kakitangan yang namanya muncul dalam senarai mereka yang baru dipilih ke jawatan politik Hamas di Gaza."Berlawanan dengan tuntutan pengkritik, Neuer memberitahu Digital bahawa Israel tidak selalu cuba menutup UNRWA, dengan mengatakan bahawa Negara Yahudi itu pada mulanya melihat agensi itu sebagai "mudah" pada lewat tahun 1960-an. Walau bagaimanapun, Neuer berkata pandangan Israel terhadap agensi itu telah berubah dengan ketara, terutamanya sejak serangan Hamas pada 7 Oktober 2023.Pada Januari 2024, Pesuruhjaya Agung UNRWA, Philippe Lazzarini mengarahkan siasatan terhadap mana-mana kakitangan yang didakwa terlibat dalam serangan Hamas, yang dikutuknya . UNRWA memberitahu Digital bahawa "setelah memastikan bahawa individu-individu itu memang kakitangan UNRWA," Lazzarini "segera" menamatkan pelantikan mereka.Pada akhir bulan lepas, Duta Israel ke PBB, Danny Danon secara rasmi memberitahu Setiausaha Agung PBB, António Guterres tentang tuntutan Israel agar UNRWA menghentikan operasi di Yerusalem dan mengosongkan premisnya."Berbulan-bulan penglibatan secara baik hati dengan Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu dan bertahun-tahun rungutan berkaitan yang disampaikan kepada UNRWA, telah disambut dengan pengabaian yang terang-terangan, menjejaskan kewajipan asasnya terhadap ketidakberpihakan dan berkecuali yang tidak dapat dibaiki," tulis Danon dalam surat itu.Dalam satu kenyataan yang dikeluarkan bulan lepas, jurucakap UNRWA, Jonathan Fowler mengecam undang-undang yang diluluskan oleh Israel pada Oktober 2024, dengan mengatakan bahawa Israel memendekkan visa kakitangan UNRWA adalah "sama seperti diusir." Walau bagaimanapun, bahawa "UNRWA tetap komited sepenuhnya untuk kekal dan menyampaikan," merujuk kepada lokasi agensi lain di rantau ini.Walaupun pandangan Israel terhadap agensi itu telah berubah, yang mendorong tindakan daripada kerajaan negara itu, Neuer menunjukkan bahawa beberapa negara, termasuk AS, gagal "mengambil sebarang tindakan bermakna" terhadap UNRWA. Beliau menggelarkan tindakan lalu negara-negara itu sebagai "sebahagian besarnya persembahan dan terhad."Apabila ditanya tentang apa yang perlu diketahui oleh rakyat Amerika tentang UNRWA, Neuer berkata bahawa agensi itu adalah "serigala berbulu kambing," sambil menambah contoh pegawai PBB yang katanya telah melanggar misi mereka. Beliau juga membandingkannya dengan isu sosial yang sering diperdebatkan di sini, iaitu anti-perkauman."Sama seperti rakyat Amerika telah diberitahu sekurang-kurangnya selama 5 tahun yang lalu - mungkin lebih - bahawa anti-perkauman bermaksud anda perlu mendiskriminasikan orang kulit putih, terhadap heteroseksual, anda tahu, semua jenis kategori, kami diberitahu bahawa itu adalah toleransi, itu adalah persamaan. Kami diberitahu bahawa perkauman dan diskriminasi adalah anti-perkauman dan anti-diskriminasi. Kami diberi satu set pembohongan," kata Neuer kepada Digital.Mengenai UNRWA dan Majlis Hak Asasi Manusia PBB (UNHRC), Neuer menambah, "Mereka bukan agensi kemanusiaan. Mereka adalah agensi yang secara sistematik telah memberi insentif dan mewajarkan kumpulan pengganas dari Hamas dan Jihad Islam, rejim Islam di Iran. Itulah realitinya."Apabila ditanya oleh Digital mengenai tuduhan Neuer, UNRWA menolaknya dan menuduh UN Watch "menyebarkan maklumat palsu terhadap" agensi itu."Agensi ini secara sistematik menyemak semua tuduhan salah laku, termasuk melanggar nilai PBB dan prinsip kemanusiaan, dan melancarkan siasatan ke atas sebarang tuduhan yang boleh dipercayai, mengenakan langkah disiplin di mana salah laku telah ditubuhkan, sehingga termasuk pemisahan," kata UNRWA kepada Digital.Presiden Trump telah menyeru "penyemakan semula" UNHRC, UNRWA dan Pertubuhan Pendidikan, Saintifik dan Kebudayaan Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu (UNESCO). Dalam arahan itu, UNHRC dituduh "melindungi pencabul hak asasi manusia," manakala UNESCO dikecam kerana "kegagalan untuk memperbaharui dirinya" antara isu-isu lain.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

Penari Balet Rusia-Amerika ‘dalam transit’ selepas AS mengatakan beliau ditahan secara salah, kata teman lelaki

(SeaPRwire) - Penari balet Rusia-Amerika, Ksenia Karelina, yang dijatuhi hukuman penjara 12 tahun di Rusia setelah menderma sedikit lebih daripada $50 kepada badan amal Ukraine pada awal tahun 2024, kini "dalam transit," kata teman lelakinya, sehari selepas beliau dibebaskan dalam satu pertukaran tahanan.Perkhidmatan Keselamatan Persekutuan Rusia (FSB) memaklumkan keluarga Karelina tentang perkembangan itu, kata teman lelaki penari balet itu, Christopher Van Heerden kepada pada hari Khamis.Walaupun "dalam transit" bukanlah pengesahan bahawa Karelina dibebaskan, ia mungkin bermaksud Rusia memindahkannya ke penjara yang lebih dekat dengan Moscow, yang biasanya merupakan petanda pembebasan.Berita itu datang ketika Van Heerden menggambarkan jurang komunikasi yang luar biasa selama sembilan hari antara Karelina dan ibunya, yang biasanya bercakap melalui telefon setiap hari sejak penahanannya. Karelina sedang melawat keluarga di Yekaterinberg pada Februari 2024 apabila beliau ditangkap selepas menderma $51 kepada organisasi Ukraine yang menyalurkan wang itu kepada tentera negara itu. menetapkan bahawa Karelina telah "ditahan secara salah" pada hari Selasa, pada hari yang sama guru Amerika, Marc Fogel, dibebaskan selepas menghabiskan lebih daripada tiga tahun di penjara Rusia.Sebagai pertukaran bagi kebebasan Fogel, seorang pegawai pentadbiran Trump memberitahu bahawa Amerika Syarikat sedang sebagai sebahagian daripada perjanjian itu. Walaupun Van Heerden berkata bahawa beliau jelas tidak boleh mempercayai kata-kata FSB, beliau optimis tentang kepulangan Karelina ke rumah, sambil menambah bahawa Presiden Donald Trump, Setiausaha Negara Marco Rubio dan Utusan Khas untuk Hal Ehwal Tahanan, Adam Boehler, kesemuanya menyedari dan memberi tumpuan kepada "Pergerakan sedang berlaku ketika kita bercakap," kata Van Heerden.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

(SeaPRwire) - Bekas tebusan Hamas didakwa dipaksa untuk memalsukan kematiannya sendiri untuk video propaganda. Dalam temu bual bersama Channel 12 Israel, Orly Gilboa, ibu Daniella, memperincikan pengalaman ngeri itu."Salah seorang penculik hanya datang kepadanya dengan kamera dan berkata, 'Daniella, hari ini kita akan merakam kamu sebagai orang mati.' Sudah tentu dia merayu untuk nyawanya dan meminta dia untuk tidak berbuat demikian," kata Orly Gilboa kepada Channel 12. Gilboa juga berkata bahawa anaknya diliputi serpihan dan serbuk untuk membuatkan ia kelihatan seperti dia terkorban dalam serangan udara Israel.Pada November 2024, Hamas mendakwa bahawa Gilboa terkorban dalam serangan udara Israel, menayangkan video "mayatnya" sebagai bukti. Walau bagaimanapun, Gilboa sebenarnya masih hidup dan dibebaskan daripada kurungan pada 25 Januari 2025, bersama Liri Albag, Naama Levy dan Karina Ariev.Berikutan pembebasan video oleh Hamas, IDF menyatakan dalam satu kenyataan bahawa ia sedang menyiasat keadaan tersebut. IDF juga mengecam pembebasan video itu, dengan mengatakan "Hamas terus terlibat dalam keganasan psikologi dan bertindak dengan kekejaman yang melampau."Hamas membuat video beberapa tebusan, termasuk Yarden Bibas, yang isteri dan dua anak lelakinya yang kecil turut diculik pada 7 Oktober 2023. Bibas dilihat dalam video Hamas, yang dikeluarkan pada November 2023, menangis teresak-esak apabila diberitahu bahawa keluarganya terkorban. Nasib isteri Bibas, Shiri, dan anak-anak mereka, Ariel dan Kfir, masih belum diketahui.Gilboa, Albag, Levy dan Ariev diculik oleh pengganas Hamas dari pangkalan IDF di selatan Israel semasa serangan pada 7 Oktober 2023. Agam Berger, yang ditawan bersama askar wanita lain, ditahan selama seminggu tambahan seorang diri. Dia dibebaskan daripada kurungan Hamas pada 30 Januari 2025. Pada hari dia ditawan, Gilboa ditembak di kaki, tetapi peluru itu tidak dikeluarkan semasa tempoh penawanannya.Dalam temu bual eksklusif bersama Ynet, Ran Gilboa, bapa Daniela, memanggil anaknya "seorang wira yang kembali dari neraka." Dia juga mendedahkan bahawa selama dua hari selepas penculikan anaknya, keluarganya tidak tahu sama ada dia hidup atau mati."Penculik mereka memberi mereka lebih banyak makanan pada hari-hari menjelang pembebasan mereka. Mereka hanya diberitahu bahawa mereka akan dibebaskan tiga hari sebelum ia berlaku," kata Ran Gilboa kepada Ynet.Rakyat Israel terkejut dengan keadaan tiga tebusan yang dibebaskan minggu lalu, kerana lelaki-lelaki itu kelihatan kurus kering. Perdana Menteri Israel Benjamin Netanyahu berjanji bahawa ini "tidak akan diabaikan." Di samping itu, Presiden Israel Isaac Herzog berkata bahawa lelaki-lelaki yang "kurus kering dan kesakitan" itu adalah gambaran visual "jenayah terhadap kemanusiaan."terlibat dalam gencatan senjata. Walau bagaimanapun, organisasi pengganas itu mengancam untuk menghentikan pembebasan tebusan. Presiden Donald Trump kemudian memberi Hamas tarikh akhir pada hari Sabtu, 15 Februari, jam 12 tengah hari untuk membebaskan tebusan yang masih tinggal."Jika semua tebusan Gaza tidak dikembalikan menjelang hari Sabtu jam 12 tengah hari, saya akan berkata batalkan gencatan senjata," kata Trump di Pejabat Oval. "Biarlah semua neraka meletus. Israel boleh mengatasi hal ini."Trump menegaskan bahawa Hamas perlu membebaskan "semua daripada mereka, bukan secara berperingkat." Kabinet keselamatan Israel menyokong ancaman Presiden Trump, dan Perdana Menteri Netanyahu menyatakan dalam satu kenyataan bahawa jika tebusan tidak dibebaskan menjelang tarikh akhir, mereka "akan menyambung semula pertempuran sengit sehingga Hamas dikalahkan sepenuhnya." Pada hari Khamis, Hamas mengumumkan ia akan membebaskan tiga lagi tebusan Israel seperti yang dirancang pada asalnya, menurut Associated Press.Greg Norman menyumbang kepada laporan ini.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

In particular, the last hole of 2024, hole NYDD007 encountered porphyry style quartz veins, multiple intrusives, a locally developed exoskarn and significant sulphides strongly warranting step out drilling to either discover or provide a vectoring pattern to a possible deposit. Further separate potential complexes within the South-West and Ace of Spades targets have been chosen for the continuation of the scout drilling. A detailed ground gravity survey covering ~400km2 is in progress to help define more drilling targets including possible silicified basement hills under the cover rocks which may be due to high sulphidation gold mineralisation related to porphyry deposits. The expanded scout drilling and ground gravity survey will assist with specific vectoring and a budgeted second phase follow-up and step out drilling program. Preparations are also taking place for the first Kincora-AngloGold Ashanti drilling at the Nevertire project." Background The interpreted undercover extensions of the renowned Macquarie Arc porphyry copper-gold geology are a globally significant exploration opportunity offering new district(s) scale discovery potential. The relatively mature and well-explored sections of the Macquarie Arc host:a mineral endowment of over 160 million gold equivalent ounces 2,multiple world-class mines, some of which have recently attracted over $16 billion of corporate activity 3, and,two projects with resource growth of over 10 million gold equivalent ounces (Boda-Kaiser and Cowal) 4.The less explored extensions of the Arc have attracted five recent earn-in and joint venture agreements supporting potentially over $300 million in exploration and development expenditures 3.Kincora was an early entrant into the geophysically interpreted undercover Northern Junee-Narromine Belt (NJNB) of the Macquarie Arc. The Company now holds a >100km north-south strike of contiguous licenses across a number of interpreted underexplored, some never drilled, probable intrusive complexes and volcanic edifice sections of the undercover extensions of this belt.The Company's Nyngan and Nevertire projects are two of a total of five Kincora projects in the NJNB, and are being advanced via an up to A$50 million earn-in and joint venture agreement with AngloGold Ashanti (the other three projects are held 100% and Kincora is proactively seeking asset level partners).Initial drilling results at the Nyngan project have provided strong encouragement and support the view that the Nyngan project is highly prospective for large scale porphyry related copper-gold deposits and offers new district scale potential.The exploration program by Kincora with AngloGold Ashanti has been expanded, including both a continuation of a scout drilling program and an expansion of ground gravity geophysical surveying.During 4Q'2024, six holes for 2707m were completed utilising cost-effective mud-rotary drilling through the relatively soft post mineral cover sequence followed by diamond core drilling (NQ3) of porphyry-prospective basement. The holes have provided samples of basement geology across separate magnetic complexes and key lithological domains.The first phase scout program has sought to gain wide spatial coverage across in two very broad areas, the South-West target and the Ace of Spades target, both defined by coincident aeromagnetic and gravity features with only one previous hole to basement at the South-West target and no prior basement intersections at the Ace of Spades (see Figure 2).The holes (NYDD002 to NYDD007) encountered a variety of basement lithologies including andesite, volcaniclastic breccia, diorite, gabbro, dolerite, and granodiorite, sandstone and siltstone, which based on extensive geological experience in the district, are all interpreted to be Macquarie Arc basement rocks, but noting age dating and lithogeochemistry analysis are pending. Hole NYDD007 within the south-western stem of the Ace of Spades has identified a high priority follow-up target warranting step out drilling to either discover or create a vectoring pattern to a possible deposit. See Figure 3 for select photos of NYDD007 drill core.Intervals hosting native copper, chalcopyrite, bornite, pyrite and molybdenite were noted in holes NYDD002, 003, 004, 006 and 007 (see Tables 1 and 2). The sulphides occur as disseminations, fracture-fill and within quartz±carbonate veins, and also in mineralized skarn in NYDD007. Long intervals of anomalous copper were returned in the assays for NYDD003, 004 and 007 (see Table 2). The volcanic, sedimentary and/or intrusive rocks had been overprinted by moderate to strong, patchy to pervasive magnetite+chlorite-, epidote+carbonate±albite-, sericite and garnet+epidote+chlorite+calcite bearing hydrothermal alteration assemblages in NYDD003, 004, 006 and 007.Table 1: Nyngan project: Summary of 2024 mud rotary-diamond tail drill holes (metres)HoleMudRotaryDiamondCoreEnd of HoleInterpreted BasementBasementIntervalHighlightsNYDD002212.9240.7453.6440.812.8Chalcopyrite, borniteNYDD003257.8168.6426.4255171.4ChalcopyriteNYDD004235.3265.6500.9318182.9Chalcopyrite, pyrite, native copperNYDD005335.535.7371.233338.2 NYDD006302.7135.5438.2302.7135.5ChalcopyriteNYDD007305.7210.6516.3305.7210.6Pyrite, molybdenite, chalcopyrite native copperTotal1649.9 1056.72706.6 Drilling paused for the summer holiday period with the scout drilling program recommenced to provide further wide spatial coverage of basement lithologies across separate potential intrusive complexes at both the South-West and Ace of Spades targets. Further drill hole permits have been submitted for up to a total of twenty holes (see Figure 2).A ground gravity survey is progressing well, covering a total of ~400km2 across the extensions of the South-West and Ace of Spade targets (see Figure 2), and expanding and providing infill coverage from the ground gravity survey completed in 2024. The infill program is expected to refine an existing interpreted high sulphidation gold target associated with a basement high, whilst the regional survey is expected to define additional targets.Completion of the initial scout drilling program and the ground gravity survey are expected to refine areas of interest for a proposed and budgeted second phase follow-up drilling.Figure 1: A new district-scale series of major and untested magmatic complex targets are situated with in the Nyngan project that potentially represent the largest volcano-intrusive complex of the Macquarie ArcKincora is managing the exploration program, currently receives a 10% management fee of expenditures with expanded initial scout drilling and ground gravity survey ongoingTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/240664_figure1.jpgFigure 2: 6 wide spaced scout holes have been completed with drilling expanded with further approvals submitted for up to a total of 20-holes.

The reported maximum assay values is over a 1.3m sample of the gabbro unit below a contact with an overlying conglomerate (from 440.7m), The intersected basement had a weak to moderate pervasive propylitic alteration assemblage comprising chlorite, magnetite and epidote, overprinted by weak patchy albite with hematite dusting. The last four metres of the hole had rare very fine grained bornite and chalcopyrite occurring together with chlorite and magnetite.2 - NYDD003 returned broad intervals of anomalous copper (up to 378ppm copper over 2m from 396m). The best intercepts were 6m @ 214ppm copper from 309m (within a fine to medium grained basaltic andesite with moderate pervasive chlorite, patchy epidote with 1-5% wispy calcite±epidote±quartz veins, rarely with fine grained pyrite and chalcopyrite) and 64m @ 264ppm copper from 362.4m (within very coarse grained plagioclase phyric diorite with weak to moderate pervasive chlorite+calcite+magnetite with patchy epidote and non-stratified pebbly-granular volcaniclastic sandstone or matrix-supported breccia with moderately shearing and foliation, moderate pervasive chlorite+calcite and very weak to weak patchy zones of very fine grained quartz, magnetite and pyrite) (calculated using 200ppm copper minimum and 4m internal dilution cutoffs).3 - volcaniclastic rocks returned anomalous copper (up to 680ppm copper over 2m from 381m within a andesite brecca clast) over broad intervals in NYDD004. The best intercepts were from upper parts of the hole, where native copper occurred as fracture-fill and disseminations: 14m @ 427ppm copper from 339m and 8m @ 523ppm copper from 375m. Broad intervals of disseminated and vein-hosted chalcopyrite occurred in lower parts of the hole: 28m @ 255 ppm copper from 393m and 65m @ 249ppm copper from 428.5m (calculated using 200ppm copper minimum and 4m internal dilution cutoffs).4 - Minor mineralization was noted in NYDD005 and related to disseminated very fine-grained magnetite and rare euhedral pyrite crystals with calcite strain fringes with only up to 159ppm copper over 2m from 341m.5 - Trace chalcopyrite was rarely observed in hole NYDD006 in calcite+quartz±epidote veins with up to 245ppm copper over 2m from 316m.6 - NYDD007 encountered a volcanic package of plagioclase phyric andesite, microdiorite, fine-grained volcaniclastic sandstone and minor andesite-clast breccia, intruded by an equigranular granodiorite and associated aplite, pegmatite and quartz-feldspar porphyry. The intrusions occurred as multi-metre bodies, smaller dykes, veins and stringers. Pyrite (locally up to 5%) and trace amounts of chalcopyrite, molybdenite and native copper (locally up to 0.3%) occurred in hole NYDD007. Quartz+pyrite±carbonate±epidote veins up to 5cm width occurred throughout the hole, within the granodiorite and volcanic-sedimentary host rocks, some containing chalcopyrite or molybdenite, many with bleached, sericite-rich selvedges. There were also pyrite±chalcopyrite veins and pyrite stringers. Late carbonate veins and breccia veins tended to be associated with fracture zones and were surrounded by broad sericite+carbonate±pyrite-altered zones. There were multiple hydrothermal and contact-metamorphic alteration assemblages observed throughout NYDD007. The maximum grade of 0.215 g/t gold is over 1m from 418m with a geological description provided in Figure 3 with an accompanying photo and description of that lithological unit..

It is a large 762km2 direct application tenement granted by the NSW State Government covering a significant portion of the interpreted under cover section of the northern Junee-Narromine Belt 7. The Junee-Narromine Belt is one of the two largest belts of the Macquarie Arc, Australia's foremost porphyry belt, which hosts a mineral endowment of over 160 million gold equivalent ounces 2.The license hosts almost no prior explorer drilling even though regional geophysics strongly indicates a new potential district-scale setting for a significant number of interpreted, large-scale, porphyry copper-gold intrusive complex targets.In May 2024, Kincora signed a definitive multiple-phase Earn-in and Joint Venture Agreement (Agreement) over the Nyngan and Nevertire licences with AngloGold Ashanti Australia Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of AngloGold Ashanti plc (NYSE: AU; JSE: ANG), the world's fourth largest gold miner by production which has a successful track record for greenfields discovery success.AngloGold Ashanti has the right to spend up to A$50 million to earn an 80% interest through:A$25 million of exploration expenditure to earn a 70% joint venture interest (Phase I) including a minimum A$2 million expenditure obligation, with Kincora the initial operator for a 10% management fee.Completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) or funding of a further $25 million of expenditure to earn a 80% joint venture interest (Phase II).In July 2024, separate to the Agreement with AngloGold Ashanti, Kincora formed a partnership with Fleet Space Technologies Pty Ltd (Fleet Space) to undertake Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) and gravity geophysical surveys under a research and development grant at the Nyngan project.The Fleet Space surveys were completed in 2024 and focused on a small portion of the Ace of Spades target. The ongoing ground gravity survey covering ~400km2 provides further coverage across the extensions of the South-West and Ace of Spade targets and infill spacing over areas of the 2024 ground gravity survey.About Kincora Kincora Copper Limited is dual listed on the ASX and TSX-V (ticker "KCC") and is an active explorer and project generator focused on world-class copper-gold discoveries.The Company has recently shifted to an asset level funding strategy for its wholly owned porphyry projects, partnering to date for five of twelve projects, and retaining its Cobar superbasin project (Condobolin) as a 100% owned project.Recent deals have unlock up to A$60 million in multiple year partner funding and supported countercyclical growth increasing the number of NSW based projects by a third.Field activities resumed in 4Q'2024 and have began to ramp up with over 7000 metres of drilling and over A$3.5m of partner funded exploration.Kincora is now focused on further and larger asset level deals for its more advanced and/or proximal to mine porphyry projects, and, advancing the next stage of exploration for already partnered projects.For more information please visit Kincora's website at www.kincoracopper.comReferences:1 The interpretation of Macquarie Arc age basement rocks is based on extensive geological experience in the district with age dating, lithogeochemistry and other analytical analysis are pending seeking to confirm2 Sourced from MinEx Consulting for Kincora3 Sourced Ocean Blue Equities Oct 8, 2024 initiation research report on Waratah Minerals4 These include: (i) Cowal epithermal gold project by Evolution Mining: Current endowment of 13.7Mtoz gold, including historic production of 4.7Moz gold and current resource of 9Moz gold, relative to the resource of 3.4Moz gold at the time of the project acquisition in May 2015.

These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used.Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report.In cases where 'industry standard' work has been done this would be relatively simple (e.g. 'reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay'). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed informationKincora Copper Limited (Kincora) is the operator of the Nyngan Project (EL8929) undertaking exploration in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti under an earn-in and joint venture agreement.Drill hole planning, targeting, sampling and budgeting is discussed and agreed at quarterly technical committee workshops between Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti.Drilling ulitises mud-rotary to refusal followed by diamond coring methods by Ophir Drilling Pty Ltd from which sub-samples of core are taken over 2 m intervals and pulverised to produce suitable aliquots for fire assay and ICP-MS.Diamond drilling was used to obtain core samples from the ground, which was then structurally, geotechnically and geologically logged.Some sample intervals spanning lithological contacts or changes in alteration and mineralization were less than 2 m.Sampling was completed to industry standards with 1⁄4 core for PQ and HQ diameter diamond core and 1⁄2 core for NQ3 diameter diamond core sent to the lab for each sample interval.Samples were assayed via the following methods:- Gold: Au-Tl43 (Fire assay)-Multiple elements: ME-MS61 (4 acid digestion with ICP-MS analysis of 48 elements)- Assay results >10g/t gold and/or 1% copper are re-assayed- Hyperspectral: analysis of alteration minerals using Terraspec instrument and HYP-PKGAll of the diamond core from the 2024 drilling of six holes has been cut and submitted to Australian Laboratory Services Pty Ltd (ALS) in Orange, with assays returned for all holes.An initial batch of nine core samples for petrological descriptions and confirmation of the lithologies, alteration assemblages, textures and paragenesis has been submitted, with results pending at the time of writing.Four quarter core samples have been submitted for U-Pb age dating of the zircon, titanite or apatite grains, with results pending at the time of writing.A suite of coherent (volcanic and intrusive) rocks have been chosen for lithogeochemistry, with results pending at the time of writing.Select existing pulps will be re-run as Li borate fusion discs to obtain more accurate trace element concentrations.Historic sampling on other projects included soils, rock chips and drilling (aircore, reserve circulation and diamond core).Drilling techniquesDrill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc.).Drilling by Kincora at Nyngan has used cost effective mud-rotary in the cover sequence rocks and diamond core drilling in the basement rocks with NQ triple tube diameter diamond core tail.Historic drilling on other Kincora projects have used a variety of methods including aircore, reverse circulation and diamond core.Drill sample recoveryMethod of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed.Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples.Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.Drill core recovery was logged.Diamond drill core recoveries are contained in the body of the announcement - see Table 3.Core recoveries were recorded by measuring the total length of recovered core expressed as a proportion of the drilled run length.There is no relationship between core recoveries and grades.LoggingWhether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies.Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature.

Further details of exploration efforts and data of other parties are providing in the March 1st, 2021, Independent Technical Report included in the ASX listing prospectus, which is available at:https://www.kincoracopper.com/investors/asx-prospectusGeologyDeposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.The Nyngan Project is interpreted to be located in the undercover northern extension of the Junee-Narromine Belt of the Macquarie Arc, part of the Lachlan Orogen.Targeted rocks comprise successions of volcano-sedimentary rocks of Ordovician age intruded by suites of subduction arc-related intermediate to felsic intrusions of late Ordovician to early Silurian age.Kincora is exploring for porphyry-style copper and gold mineralization, copper-gold skarn plus related high sulphidation and epithermal gold systems.Drill hole InformationA summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes:easting and northing of the drill hole collarelevation or RL (Reduced Level - elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collardip and azimuth of the holedown hole length and interception depthhole length.If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case.Detailed information on Kincora's drilling at Nyngan is given in the body of the report.Data aggregation methodsIn reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated.Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail.The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated.Kincora drilling at Nyngan the following methods were used:Porphyry gold-copper intercepts were aggregated using a cut-off grade of 200ppm copper.Internal dilution below cut off included was generally less than 25% of the total reported intersection length.Core loss was included as dilution at zero values.Average gold and copper grades calculated as averages weighted to sample lengths.Historic drilling results in other project areas are reported at different cut-off grades depending on the nature of mineralisation.Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengthsThese relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results.If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported.If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg 'down hole length, true width not known').Due to the uncertainty of mineralization orientation, the true width of mineralization is not known at Nyngan.Intercepts from historic drilling reported at other projects are also of unknown true width.DiagramsAppropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views.Relevant diagrams and tables are included in the body of the report.Balanced reportingWhere comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results.Intercepts reported for Kincora's drilling at Nyngan are zones of higher grade within unmineralized or weakly anomalous material.Other substantive exploration dataOther exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples - size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances.No other exploration data is considered material to the reporting of results at Nyngan. Other data of interest to further exploration targeting is included in the body of the report.Historic exploration data coverage and results are included in the body of the report for Kincora's other projects.Further workThe nature and scale of planned further work (e.g. tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling).Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive.Areas within the South-West and Ace of Spades targets at the Nyngan Project have been chosen for a continuation of the scout drilling during 2025, seeking to provide further wide special coverage of interpreted intrusive complexes. New APOs and amendments to existing approvals are pending - see Figures 2 & 3.An expanded ground gravity survey across both targets is proposed with land access agreements in place - see Figures 2 & 3.Coupled with more detailed geoscientific studies, including petrology, lithogeochemistry and geochronology, the continuation of the scout drilling programme and expanded ground gravity survey will assist with specific vectoring and a proposed second phase follow-up diamond drilling programmes during 2025.

Development of Prediction Model for Brain Amyloid-Beta Accumulation for Early Screening of Alzheimer’s Disease JCN Newswire

Development of Prediction Model for Brain Amyloid-Beta Accumulation for Early Screening of Alzheimer’s Disease

TOKYO, Feb 14, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Oita University and Eisai Co., Ltd. (Eisai) announced today the development of a machine learning model to predict amyloid beta(1)(Aβ) accumulation in the brain, combining background data such as age, gender, smoking history and medical history, as well as general blood test and MMSE(2) items. This model is expected to enable primary care physicians to predict the accumulation of brain Aβ, which is an important pathological factor of Alzheimer's disease(3) (AD), during routine medical examinations and to facilitate simple early screening for AD.The details of this model were published in the online edition of the peer-reviewed medical journal Alzheimer's Research & Therapy on January 21, 2025.Currently, although brain Aβ accumulation can be detected by positron emission tomography(4) (amyloid PET) and cerebrospinal fluid testing(5) (CSF testing), the high cost and invasiveness of these tests are recognized as issues. Therefore, in recent years,numerous studies have been conducted on various AD- related blood biomarkers as a more convenient screening method. However, there is almost no research evaluating the predictive performance of models for brain Aβ accumulation using routineclinical data. This study is the first to develop a machine learning model for prediction of amyloid PET positivity using 34 clinical data items consisting of background data (such as age, gender, smoking history, and medical history), general blood test data (such as kidney function, liver function, and thyroid function), and MMSE items, which are routinely collected in dementia care. The evaluation metric of the prediction model, the Area Under the Curve (AUC), was 0.70 for the model combining background data and general blood test data, and 0.73 for the model combining background data, general blood test data, and MMSE data, indicating a certain level of predictive accuracy.Anti-Aβ antibody has been shown to potentially provide greater benefit when treatment is initiated at an earlier stage of AD1 ,making early detection of Aβ accumulation in the brain crucial. This machine learning model can predict brain Aβ accumulation using clinical data that can be collected during routine medical care, and so is expected to be widely used by primary care physicians for early screening of AD.By utilizing the model to determine the necessity of amyloid PET and CSF tests, it is anticipated to lead to early diagnosis andtreatment initiation for AD, as well as a reduction in the economic and physical burden on patients.(1) Amyloid beta: A protein viewed as a cause of Alzheimer's disease, which accumulates in the brain for about 20 years prior to the onset of the disease and forms senile plaques(2) MMSE (Mini-Mental State Examination): A method for evaluating cognitive function. It consists of evaluation items such as orientation, memory, attention/calculation, delayed recall, naming, repetition, comprehension, reading, writing, and figure copying, and is evaluated between 30 to 0 points (normal to severe).(3) Alzheimer's disease: the most common cause of dementia, and its pathological characteristics include senile plaques, neurofibrillary tangles, and neuronal cell death(4) Amyloid PET: a brain imaging test visualizing Aβ accumulation in the brain(5) Cerebrospinal fluid testing: A test analyzing cerebrospinal fluid for Aβ42, phosphorylated tau, and total tau as biomarkers of Alzheimer's diseaseBackground and Outline of ResearchAs Japan has become a super-aging society with the rise in the number of dementia patients over the age of 65, the developmentof new therapeutic agents for AD, the most common cause of dementia, is an urgent issue. In AD, accumulation of Aβ in the brain is apathological event that precedes onset. It has been shown that anti-Aβ antibody could offer greater benefit if treatment is initiated atearlier stages of AD1, highlighting the importance of earlier detection of Aβ accumulation in the brain. While imaging such as amyloid PET useful for AD diagnosis and fluid biomarkers are used for detection, these methods have challenges related to invasiveness and cost.Therefore, many machine learning-based brain Aβ prediction models have been developed as simpler screening tools, but oftenthese models incorporate markers not measured in routine clinical practice, such as imaging data and ApoE genotype. This study is the first to attempt the development of a machine learning model to predict amyloid PET positivity using only background dataand general blood test results routinely collected in dementia care.Results and Significance of ResearchThis research utilized outpatient data from Oita University Hospital collected between September 2012 and November 2017, anddata from a prospective cohort study (USUKI STUDY) on the elderly without dementia aged 65 and older living in Usuki City, Oita Prefecture, conducted between October 2015 and November 2017. The prediction model was created using three machine learningtechniques: Support Vector Machine, Elastic Net, and L2 regularization logistic regression, combining 12 items on participants'backgrounds (age, gender, smoking history, medical history - hypertension, dyslipidemia, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, thyroid disease), 11 general blood test items (kidney function, liver function, thyroid function, etc.), and 11 MMSE item scores of 262 individuals (136 men, 126 women, median age 73.8 years) with mild cognitive impairment or normal cognitive function, and evaluating the model’s performance.For the prediction performance using L2 regularization logistic regression, both the model combining participant backgrounds and MMSE items and the model combining participant backgrounds and general blood tests showed an AUC of 0.70, indicating similarperformance. Furthermore, the model that combined all of these elements (participant backgrounds, general blood tests, and MMSEitems) showed an improved performance with an AUC of 0.73. Analyzing the key factors contributing to the prediction of Aβ accumulation identified delayed recall and place orientation among MMSE items, age, thyroid-stimulating hormone, and mean corpuscular volume as important factors.Academic Paper:Title: Machine learning models for dementia screening to classify brain amyloid positivity on positron emission tomography using blood markers and demographic characteristics: a retrospective observational studyAuthors: Noriyuki Kimura (Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine, Oita University), Kotaro Sasaki (Eisai Co., Ltd), TeruakiMasuda (Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine, Oita University), Takuaki Ataka (Department of Neurology, Faculty ofMedicine, Oita University), Mariko Matsumoto (Eisai Co., Ltd.), Mika Kitamura (Eisai Co., Ltd.), Yosuke Nakamura (Eisai Co., Ltd.), Etsuro Matsubara (Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine, Oita University)Publisher: Alzheimer's Research & TherapyPlease direct any interview requests or inquiries to the contact information provided below For further information or any inquiries regarding this study Noriyuki Kimura, Associate Professor, Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine, Oita University TEL: +81-(0)97-586-5814, FAX: +81-(0)97-586-6502Email:naika3@oita-u.ac.jpMedia Inquiries:Oita UniversityPublic Relations Section, General Affairs Division, Department of General AffairsTEL: +81-(0)97-554-7376Eisai Co., Ltd.Public Relations Department TEL: +81-(0)3-3817-5120 Copyright 2025 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

AS menyatakan pembebasan tahanan Rusia Alexander Vinnik dalam pertukaran dengan Marc Fogel, kata pegawai

(SeaPRwire) - Amerika Syarikat telah membebaskan Alexander Vinnik sebagai sebahagian daripada perjanjian untuk menjamin kebebasan Marc Fogel, kata seorang pegawai pentadbiran Trump pada hari Rabu.Fogel, seorang guru Amerika yang telah ditahan di Rusia sejak 2021, Sebuah pesawat yang membawa beliau mendarat di Amerika Syarikat lewat malam tadi.Vinnik telah ditangkap pada tahun 2017 di Greece atas permintaan Amerika Syarikat atas tuduhan penipuan mata wang kripto. Beliau kemudiannya diekstradisi ke Amerika Syarikat di mana beliau mengaku bersalah tahun lepas atas konspirasi untuk melakukan pengubahan wang haram.Jurucakap Kremlin Dmitry Peskov sebelum ini berkata nama tahanan Rusia itu akan didedahkan apabila beliau pulang ke tanah air. "Baru-baru ini, kerja telah dipergiatkan melalui agensi-agensi yang berkaitan, terdapat hubungan," kata Peskov dalam satu panggilan persidangan dengan wartawan, menurut Associated Press. "Dan hubungan ini telah membawa kepada pembebasan Fogel, serta salah seorang warga Persekutuan Rusia, yang kini ditahan di Amerika Syarikat. Warga Persekutuan Rusia ini juga akan dihantar pulang ke Rusia dalam beberapa hari akan datang."Jabatan Negara tidak segera memberi respons pada pagi Rabu kepada permintaan komen daripada Digital.Fogel, seorang guru sejarah dari Pennsylvania, menjalani hukuman penjara 14 tahun selepas ditangkap pada Ogos 2021 di sebuah lapangan terbang Rusia kerana memiliki dadah, yang menurut keluarganya dan penyokongnya adalah ganja yang ditetapkan secara perubatan.Anne Fogel, adik perempuannya, memberitahu "Fox & Friends" pada hari Rabu bahawa dia "sangat gembira kerana batu besar ini" telah diangkat dari bahunya dengan"Saya sangat bersyukur kepada presiden," tambahnya.

Selepas ketibaannya di Amerika Syarikat, Fogel bertemu dengan Presiden Donald Trump di White House dan memanggilnya sebagai wira kerana menjamin pembebasannya."Saya ingin anda tahu bahawa saya bukanlah wira dalam hal ini. Dan Presiden Trump adalah wira," kata Fogel selepas bertemu Trump."Lelaki-lelaki ini yang datang dari perkhidmatan diplomatik adalah wira," sambung Fogel. "Senator dan wakil yang meluluskan undang-undang untuk menghormati saya – mereka membawa saya pulang – mereka adalah wira."Apabila ditanya oleh wartawan pada hari Selasa sama ada Amerika Syarikat telah menyerahkan apa-apa sebagai balasan untuk Fogel, Trump menjawab "tidak banyak" tanpa memberikan butiran tambahan.’ Pat Ward, Landon Mion dan Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

PBB Hentikan Kerja Kemanusiaan di Kubu Houthi Yaman Selepas Penahanan Kakitangan

(SeaPRwire) - Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu (PBB) berkata pada hari Isnin bahawa ia telah menggantung operasi kemanusiaannya di kubu kuat pemberontak Houthi di Yaman selepas mereka menahan lapan kakitangan PBB lagi, menjejaskan tindak balas global terhadap salah satu bencana kemanusiaan terburuk di dunia.Dalam satu kenyataan, PBB berkata keputusan "luar biasa" untuk menangguhkan semua operasi dan program di wilayah Saada utara adalah disebabkan oleh kekurangan keadaan dan jaminan keselamatan yang diperlukan.Seorang jurucakap bagi pihak Houthi tidak segera membalas mesej yang meminta komen.Dalam beberapa bulan kebelakangan ini, pemberontak telah menahan berpuluh-puluh kakitangan PBB, serta orang yang dikaitkan dengan kumpulan bantuan, masyarakat sivil dan Kedutaan AS yang pernah dibuka di Sanaa. Tiada seorang pun daripada kakitangan PBB yang dibebaskan.Kenyataan PBB menyatakan bahawa penggantungan operasi bertujuan untuk memberi masa kepada pihak Houthi dan badan dunia itu untuk "mengatur pembebasan kakitangan PBB yang ditahan secara sewenang-wenangnya dan memastikan bahawa syarat-syarat yang diperlukan wujud untuk menyampaikan sokongan kemanusiaan yang kritikal" di kawasan yang dikuasai pemberontak.Ia menyatakan bahawa kakitangan yang ditahan baru-baru ini — yang ditahan pada akhir bulan lepas — termasuk enam orang yang bekerja di Saada, di sempadan utara Yaman dengan Arab Saudi.Tujuh agensi PBB beroperasi di Saada, termasuk World Food Programme, dan UNICEF, bersama-sama beberapa organisasi bantuan antarabangsa, menurut agensi kemanusiaan PBB.PBB pada akhir bulan lepas telah menggantung semua perjalanan ke kawasan yang dikuasai Houthi.Perang di Yaman telah membunuh lebih daripada 150,000 orang, termasuk pejuang dan orang awam. Pihak Houthi yang disokong Iran telah berperang melawan kerajaan Yaman yang diiktiraf di peringkat antarabangsa, yang disokong oleh sebuah gabungan yang diketuai Arab Saudi, sejak 2014, apabila mereka turun dari kubu kuat mereka di Saada dan mengambil alih Sanaa dan sebahagian besar utara.PBB telah menjangkakan bahawa lebih daripada 19 juta orang di seluruh Yaman akan memerlukan bantuan kemanusiaan pada tahun ini kerana ramai yang berdepan dengan kejutan iklim, kekurangan zat makanan, kolera dan kesan ekonomi perang.Pihak pemberontak telah memenjarakan beribu-ribu orang semasa perang. Dalam beberapa bulan kebelakangan ini, mereka juga meningkatkan tindakan keras terhadap pembangkang, termasuk baru-baru ini menjatuhkan hukuman mati ke atas 44 orang.Pada bulan Januari, pihak Houthi telah membebaskan 153 tahanan perang secara sepihak sebagai salah satu daripada beberapa tawaran untuk mengurangkan ketegangan selepas gencatan senjata di Gaza. Pembebasan tahanan sedemikian dilihat sebagai satu cara untuk memulakan semula rundingan bagi menamatkan perang Yaman secara kekal.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.
