THE BIG STORY ABROAD-<\/p>\n

? It\u2019s<\/strong> been an extraordinarily busy afternoon in the global press, with top billing <\/strong>going to US President Donald Trump suspension\u2019s of immigration for Afghans<\/strong> as DC remains on high alert. The US has halted the processing of all immigration requests from Afghanistan after the suspect in yesterday\u2019s shooting near the White House<\/a> \u2014 which left two National Guard members in \u201ccritical condition\u201d \u2014 was identified as an Afghan man who had come to the US after fleeing Taliban rule in 2021. The suspension will be indefinite, \u201cpending further review of security and vetting protocols,\u201d a statement<\/a> by the US Citizenship and Immigration Services reads.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis heinous assault was an act of evil, hatred, and terror. It was a crime against an <\/strong>entire nation, and a crime against humanity,\u201d<\/strong> Trump said<\/a> hours after the attack. \u201cWe must now re-examine every single alien who has entered our country from Afghanistan [...] and we must take all necessary measures to ensure the removal of any alien from any country who does not belong here,\u201d he added, blaming the Biden administration for 29-year-old suspect Rahmanullah Lakanwal\u2019s entry to the US. (Axios<\/a> | BBC<\/a> | CNN<\/a> | New York Times<\/a>)<\/p>\n

ALSO- What is being reported as the <\/strong>worst residential fire<\/a><\/strong> in Hong Kong in decades <\/strong>continues to rage on, with the death toll rising to 55 as hundreds remain missing.<\/strong> The fire, which spread across several high-rise buildings in an apartment complex, has raised flags pertaining to the use of bamboo scaffolding, with the government set to meet to discuss the use of metal scaffolding instead. An assistance fund will reportedly allocate USD 38.5 mn in aid to affected residents. (CNN<\/a> | Guardian<\/a>)<\/p>\n

ELSEWHERE IN THE WORLD- <\/strong>A group of military officers announced a coup in Guinea-Bissau, with now-former President Umaro Sissoco Embal\u00f3\u2019s whereabouts unknown, though he is expected to be in military detention. The coup came just one day before the results of the country\u2019s presidential elections were to be announced. The military announced in a statement that General Horta Nta Na Man has been sworn in as interim president. (BBC<\/a> | Bloomberg<\/a> | Reuters<\/a> | CNBC Africa<\/a>)<\/p>\n
