France Political Crisis: France Government Collapses After No-Confidence Vote

The Bahamas on Thursday said it had rejected a proposal from the incoming Trump administration to take in deported migrants, as the next US president seeks to follow up on pledges to slash immigration.

The Bahamas on Thursday said it had rejected a proposal from the incoming Trump administration to take in deported migrants, as the next US president seeks to follow up on pledges to slash immigration. Donald Trump's team has drawn up a list of countries to which it wants to deport migrants when their home countries refuse to accept them, according to NBC News. But the Bahamas – an island nation set in the Atlantic Ocean – said it had "reviewed and firmly rejected" the plan. Also read: Syrian conflict: Rebel factions enter Hama, oust pro-govt forces from key city Prime Minister Philip Davis's office said his government had received a proposal from the Trump transition team "to accept deportation flights of migrants from other countries." "Since the Prime Minister's rejection of this proposal, there has been no further engagement or discussions with the Trump transition team," the statement added. Other countries that Trump is considering include Turks and Caicos, Panama and Grenada, sources told NBC. The president-elect based his successful White House run on vicious anti-migrant rhetoric, blaming migrants for a supposed national crime wave and promising to carry out mass deportations. Trump's team made no immediate comment Thursday on the Bahamas' rejection, which appeared to reveal one part of how he plans to enact radical migration reform when in office. 'Invasion' The deportation plan could mean that migrants are permanently displaced in countries to which they have no links. It is not clear if the migrants would be allowed to work – or what pressure Trump may apply to get countries to agree, NBC reported. The US government has struggled for years to manage its southern border with Mexico, and Trump on the campaign trail targeted concerns by claiming an "invasion" is underway by migrants he says will rape and murder Americans. At rallies, he repeatedly railed against undocumented immigrants, attacking those who "poison the blood" of the United States. He has vowed to tackle migrant gangs using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 – which allows the federal government to round up and deport foreigners belonging to enemy countries. Watch: France In Political Crisis After No-confidence Vote Topples Government Trump also promoted the fictitious story that Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, were eating residents' pets. The incoming president last month said he was bringing back hardline immigration official Tom Homan to oversee the country's borders. Homan led immigration enforcement during part of Trump's first administration. A British plan to deport its asylum seekers to Rwanda was dropped earlier this year when the Labour Party took power under Keir Starmer after ousting the Conservatives.

Bahamas refuses to host migrants under Trump’s deportation plan: ‘No further discussions’

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol Thursday (Dec 5) accepted the resignation of the country’s defence minister following the martial law fiasco as the opposition called on the two men to step down immediately.

The short-lived martial law, which was ruled out by the National Assembly within hours, prompted South Korea’s major opposition parties Wednesday to submit motions to impeach the president as well Defense Minister Kim Yong Hyun. Many believe it was Kim who recommended the president invokes the emergency law.

Kim was replaced by Choi Byung Hyuk, a former military general and the country’s top envoy to Saudi Arabia, as South Korea’s new defence minister. The presidential office made the announcement Thursday without offering any additional comment. Yoon himself is yet to make any public appearance since he imposed martial law and later announced its withdrawal in a televised address.

<h2>Kim bites the bullet</h2>

Earlier on Wednesday, Kim had offered to tender his resignation saying he was responsible for the debacle and issued an apology for disruption. Kim said, “all troops who performed duties related to martial law were acting on my instructions, and all responsibility lies with me.”

The impeachment proposal against Yoon is expected to be put to vote between Friday and Sunday. His conservative People Power Party declared Thursday it will direct its lawmakers to oppose the impeachment vote. Analysts said PPP members could either boycott the vote or&nbsp;cast ballots against the motion.

<h2>Will Yoon be impeached?</h2>

A two-thirds majority is required in South Korea’s 300-member parliament to impeach the president.

Opposition parties, including the main Democratic Party, occupy 192 seats.

National Assembly officials said Wednesday that at least 10 members from Yeol’s People Power Party voted in favour of rejecting the martial law, indicating that they might very well vote to remove the president from the top position.

If impeached, Yeol will immediately lose his constitutional powers and would have to rely on a court for his fate. Meanwhile, PM Han Duck-soo would be taking charge of the government.

Israel-Hamas War: Body Of Hostage Recovered From Gaza

Australian police have scored the biggest cocaine bust in the country's history after seizing 2.3 tonnes of cocaine from a fishing boat that had broken down off the coast of Queensland. The authorities have arrested 13 people, including two juveniles who were allegedly part of a drug-smuggling syndicate.

The drugs have been valued at an estimated A$760 million&nbsp;($490mn), which could have been distributed across 11.7 million street deals.

According to CNN, the boat experienced a suspected mechanical breakdown, leaving the accused stranded 18 kilometres (11 miles) off the northeastern tip of K’gari island on November 30. The boat was on its way to deliver the drugs to a larger mothership.

The Australian Federal Police (AFP) had been tracking the recreational fishing boat and boarded it after it broke down.

While two men were arrested onboard the boat, the other 11 were arrested on shore, waiting for the shipment and in nearby areas.

AFP has said one of the men is identified as the Brisbane vice president of the Comanchero Outlaw Motorcycle Gang, who is accused of violence, trafficking, and extortion.

The recent cocaine bust was part of an extensive investigation into the notorious gang, which started last month.

Last week, the Colombian navy intercepted a semi-submersible transporting illegal drugs to Australia.

A report by the news agency Reuters said that the army was redeploying outside Hama to preserve civilian lives and prevent urban combat.&nbsp;

Rebel factions said that they had taken districts&nbsp;in Hama's northeast and seized the central prison, freeing detainees.&nbsp;

<h2>Hama seizure will send shockwaves through Damascus</h2>

Reuters reported that the rebels' seizure of Hama would send shockwaves through the Syrian capital and fears of a continued rebel march south.&nbsp;

Hama lies more than a third of the way from Aleppo to Damascus and its capture would open the road for a rebel advance on Homs, the main central city in Syria that functions as a crossroads connecting Syria's most populous regions.

Hama is also critical to the control of two major towns with big minority religious communities – Muhrada, home to many Christians, and Salamiya where there are many Ismaili Muslims.

Although Hama had not previously been taken by rebels during the civil war (which is still going on)&nbsp;it was historically a centre of opposition to the Assad dynasty's rule.

Like other Syrian cities, Hama rebelled in 2011 against President Bashar al-Assad after the government's brutal crackdown on anti-government protests, triggering the civil war that drew in foreign powers and jihadists.

Since last week's offensive,&nbsp;rebels took the main northern city of Aleppo and have since pushed south from their enclave in northwest Syria.

In a tense moment outside the South Korean National Assembly, opposition party leader An Gwi-ryeong grabbed a soldier's rifle, saying that she would be the last line to stop military entry into parliament during the chaos trigerred after the declaration of martial law by President Yoon Suk Yeol.

In a tense moment outside the South Korean National Assembly, opposition party leader An Gwi-ryeong grabbed a soldier's rifle, saying that she would be the last line to stop military entry into parliament during the chaos trigerred after the declaration of martial law by President Yoon Suk Yeol. The shocking event took place around 10 pm as troops tried to prevent lawmakers from entering the National Assembly for a vote on the martial law decree. A widely circulated video captured An in a tussle with a soldier for his rifle that both held in a tug-of-war at one stage, and the soldier directly pointed the deadly weapon at her. The leader yelled at the soldier, "Aren't you ashamed?" A spokesperson for the main opposition, the Democratic Party, said that Gwi-ryeong was "angered" by the military's actions. "Even when they were under orders, armed soldiers pointing guns at citizens in the National Assembly and intervening in proceedings of the lawmakers is an obvious illegality," she said. Reflecting on the confrontation, An confessed she's never held a gun before, so at first, she was intimidated. But her fear turned into urgency. "During the physical confrontation, I almost tried to block them with my body. As they grabbed my arm and pushed, I resisted and came to think that I had actually pushed the gun away during that process," she said. Her main concern in that tense moment was to stop the troops from entering the National Assembly. "If the troops had entered the assembly and disrupted the vote, we wouldn't be here today, and we wouldn't have been able to lift martial law." This followed President Yoon’s sudden and controversial martial law declaration, which surprised even members of his own party. Protests erupted amid defiance from lawmakers as An and others gathered inside the assembly to vote against the decree. Furniture was used to barricade the entrances to block the entry of soldiers. After the severe backlash and public protests, martial law was lifted hours after it had been imposed due to the defiance of lawmakers. An expressed concern over South Korea's hard-won democracy. "I'm worried that our democracy is crumbling and regressing," she said. The political crisis continues with an impeachment motion against President Yoon expected soon. Lawmakers are pledging to safeguard their constitutional rights and rejecting all further attempts to impose martial law by Yoon. (With inputs from agencies)

People of a tiny Thai village had an eerie experience when they started hearing strange voices coming from a nearby forest. The cries continued for three whole days. The villagers thought that a ghost was making the noise, so no one ventured into the forest. They approached the police on November 24, seeking help to stop the noises, the Universal Daily News in Thailand reported.&nbsp;

The police in the Mae Sot, Tak province, near the Thai-Myanmar border, went to the forest to investigate the cries. They started calling out to the voice and received responses.

They followed the sound and continued to move inwards and reached a well. There they found a Chinese man who had been trapped at the bottom of a 12-metre deep dry well for three days. The man had been calling out for help, which the villagers assumed to be ghostly.

The rescue team pulled out the man from the well after a 30-minute operation. He had a fractured left wrist, a cerebral concussion, and bruises across his body. He was taken to a hospital for treatment.

<h2>Chinese man's cries&nbsp;for help grew louder at night, scaring villagers&nbsp;</h2>

The man told officials that his name was Liu Chuanyi and he was 22 years of&nbsp;age. He said that he had been trapped in the well for three days and nights, had not eaten anything, and also didn't have any water. To conserve his energy and survive, he shouted for help only once every hour.&nbsp;

Officials believe that Liu got lost, wandered into the forest, and fell into the well. The concerned officials have now started the process of covering the well to avoid a similar incident in the future.

The villagers say that they started hearing the cries three days back, which got more intense at night. They got scared, thinking it was a paranormal force, and stopped going outside after dark. They stayed put in their houses and did not dare to investigate the strange sounds.

Since the village lies on the Thailand-Myanmar border, authorities are trying to learn what Liu was doing in the area. They have contacted the immigration department to investigate more about his journey to the village.

People on social media are amused by the story, with a Chinese user saying that his cries for help in Chinese must have sounded like "a wizard uttering spells" to the villagers.

"A Chinese man shouting for help in the middle of nowhere? Of course, the locals can’t understand the language and might think it was a wizard uttering spells," he wrote.

Taiwan President Lai Ching-te on Thursday called on like-minded governments to "safeguard democracy" during a visit to US territory Guam, his second stop on American soil in a Pacific tour that has angered Beijing. &nbsp;

Lai's week-long trip is aimed at shoring up international support for Taiwan as China maintains military pressure on the island and seeks to isolate it by poaching its few remaining allies and blocking it from global forums.

Taiwan calls itself a sovereign nation, but Beijing insists the democratic island is part of its territory and opposes any official exchanges with it.

Lai arrived in Guam on Wednesday night following visits to Pacific island nations Tuvalu and the Marshall Islands, after a stop in the US state of Hawaii.

In Honolulu, Lai discussed "China's military threats" towards Taiwan during a call with former US House speaker Nancy Pelosi, and met with US government officials and members of Congress -- drawing a barrage of criticism from Beijing.

Landing in Guam, Lai was greeted on the tarmac by the island's Governor Lou Leon Guerrero, Ingrid Larson from the Washington office of the de facto US embassy in Taiwan, and others.

Like most countries, the United States does not have official diplomatic relations with Taiwan, but Washington is Taipei's most important backer and biggest supplier of arms.

At a banquet for Lai on Thursday, Larson said the United States would keep helping Taiwan "bolster its self-defense capabilities" and its "ability to protect itself against coercion".

Earlier, at Guerrero's official residence, Lai warned of "authoritarian expansionism" and urged like-minded governments to "unite and collaborate to safeguard democracy, peace and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific region".

In her remarks, Guerrero said the partnership between Guam and Taiwan was "more crucial than ever" in the face of a "dynamic global economy".

"Taiwanese investments have significantly contributed to Guam's growth, creating opportunities for our people, while fostering mutual prosperity," Guerrero said.

Lai also addressed Guam's parliament -- a first for a Taiwanese president, his office said -- and will later Thursday travel to the Pacific island nation of Palau, the final stop of his trip.&nbsp;

Extending his "sincerest gratitude" to lawmakers for supporting Taiwan's access to the international arena, Lai said Taiwan and Guam were "like family".&nbsp;

China threats&nbsp;

Palau, Tuvalu and the Marshall Islands are among 12 nations that still recognise Taiwan diplomatically, including the Vatican, after China convinced others to dump Taipei in favour of Beijing.

Lai's Pacific tour has sparked fury in China, which on Tuesday vowed to defend its "national sovereignty" and "territorial integrity".

"The Taiwan issue is the core of China's core interests," foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian said when asked whether Beijing could launch another round of military drills around the self-ruled island in response to the trip.

Taiwan faces the constant threat of a military attack by China, which regularly deploys fighter jets and warships around the island to press its claims, and Beijing has not ruled out using force to bring the island under its control.

China and Taiwan have been governed separately since 1949, when Chiang Kai-shek's nationalist forces were defeated by Mao Zedong's communist fighters and fled to the island.

In his first public speech of the trip on US soil, Lai said Saturday there was a need to "fight together to prevent war", warning there were "no winners" from conflict.

Lai will wrap up his trip on Friday.&nbsp;
