The first redemption request came in a text message on Sami Al-Iizoo's phone 10 days after witnessing his kidnapped brother, forced to a truck with dark shaded windows with six masked men.Subsequently, a video arrived in which he said that his brother, Abdulrazaq Al-Iizoo, 60 years old, appeared with his hands tied and a black bag over his head, screaming while hit by a stick. Since then, videos and threats have continued to buzz Mr. Al-Iizoo's phone while fighting to collect $ 400,000 that the kidnappers want.Mr. Al-Iizoo is not rich and says he doesn't know why his brother was targeted. He sold a couple of cars and is trying to sell his land, but doubts it will be enough to cover the huge sum. "If I sell everything I have, I will not reach this amount," he said from his home to Talbiseh,...

It is all too easy to be cynical when cinema stars turn to the theater - not least because, recently, they have not always been very good. In recent weeks, the London stages have hosted several slightly uncertain productions of classic shows with actors of big names: Sigourney Weaver in "The Tempest", Rami Malek in "Oedipus" and Brie Larson in "Elektra". So when Cate Blanchett wandered in the city for a new adaptation of Anton Chekhov's "The Seagull", to Barbican Theater, a little trepidation could be forgiven.But Blanchett is different. Although he is known above all for her film work, the Australian actress honored the stage to acclaim during her career, playing main roles in "Hedda Gabler" and "A Streetcar Named Desire". And it is not extraneous to Chekhov, having starred in "Uncle Vany...

Three days of clashes between fighters affiliated to the new leaders of Syria and those faithful to the external dictator Bashar al-Assad left deaths of dozens of civilians, according to two war monitoring groups, who reported on Saturday that many of them had been killed by the government forces.The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which has monitored the Syrian conflict since 2011, declared on Sunday at the beginning that over 1,000 people had been killed in the coastal provinces of Tartus and Latakia.

At the beginning of 2017, American intelligence agencies issued an unequivocal judgment on why President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia had ordered a temptular effort to sabotage the recent American presidential elections.Putin wanted to paralyze the faith that the Americans have in their own elections, found and undermines a "liberal world order" led by the United States that the Russians see as a threat to their security. As a way to achieve this, the evaluation has found, Russia has worked to help Donald J.

There was no Russian sabotage, only a "false witch hunt" of which both he and Mr. Putin were ...

The vehicle that is at the center of Mars's goal, the gigantic spacex starship rocket, was launched twice this year and twice jumped into the air.The last explosion occurred on Thursday during the eighth space of spaceship, less than two months after the seventh test flight separated in space. Once again, a shower of debris rained, creating a new headache for travelers in Florida and the Caribbean who were not used to seeing "space debris" as a reason for flight delays. Neither accidents wounded anyone.The explo...

The centers for the control and prevention of diseases are planning to conduct a large -scale study to review if there is a connection between vaccines and autism, federal officials said on Friday.Dozens of scientific studies have not been able to find evidence of a connection.

Kennedy Jr., who has long expressed skepticism on vaccine security and has promised to revisit data.“As President Trump said in his joint discourse to the congress, the autism rate in American children has risen to the stars. The CDC will leave nothing to intend to understand what exactly is going on, "said Andrew Nixon, spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services, in a declaration on Friday.
