洪水多発あえぐジャカルタ 地盤沈下と海面上昇複合 移住や防潮堤、解決遠く

洪水多発にあえぐジャカルタ 地盤沈下と海面上昇が複合的に影響

インドネシアの首都ジャカルタでは、人口約1,000万人を抱える沿岸地域で満潮時の洪水が多発しています。これは、地下水の過剰利用による地盤沈下と、地球温暖化に伴う海面上昇が複合的に影響しているためです。

地元政府は、この問題に対処するために、防潮堤の建設や住民の移住支援など様々な対策を模索していますが、根本的な解決にはまだ時間がかかる見込みです。

地下水の過剰利用は生活用水や工業用水として広く行われており、それが地盤沈下を加速させていることが課題です。一方で、地球温暖化による海面上昇も被害を深刻化させています。

これらの複合的な問題は、住民の生活基盤に深刻な影響を及ぼしており、今後の都市計画や気候変動対策において重要な課題となっています。

Trump declares ‘Gaza war over’ ahead of hostage-prisoner swap

**Trump Declares ‘Gaza War Over’ Ahead of Hostage-Prisoner Swap**

*By Chanshimla Varah | Oct 13, 2025 | 09:16 AM*

United States President Donald Trump has declared an end to the war in Gaza as he headed to Israel for a peace summit with world leaders. Speaking on Air Force One, Trump stated, “The war is over, you understand that,” and expressed optimism that the Middle East would soon “normalize.”

His remarks come as a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas continues for the third consecutive day.

### Ceasefire Extended and Hostage-Prisoner Swap

The ceasefire agreement has been extended for an additional day. Under the terms, Hamas is expected to release Israeli hostages by noon on Monday. These hostages were captured during a surprise attack on October 7, 2023.

In exchange, Israel will free 1,700 Palestinians detained since the same date. The release includes 22 minors and the bodies of 360 militants. Israeli government spokesperson Shosh Bedrosian announced that the release of living hostages is anticipated early Monday morning.

### Upcoming Events and Diplomatic Efforts

President Trump is scheduled to address Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, before traveling to a summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. This summit aims to bring a definitive end to the Gaza war and will be attended by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas.

Trump’s Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff, and advisor Jared Kushner spoke at a rally in Tel Aviv on Saturday, urging the release of hostages and a halt to hostilities.

### The Peace Plan and Reactions

The United States, alongside Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey, brokered what is being described as a first-phase ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in a televised statement, said, “Tomorrow is the beginning of a new path. A path of building, a path of healing, and I hope a path of uniting hearts.”

Demonstrator Dalia Yosef expressed gratitude, saying, “For two years we have been waiting for this day, for this moment.”

### Reconstruction and Future Security Measures

Israel plans to destroy Hamas’s underground tunnels in Gaza after the hostages are safely returned, according to Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz.

Meanwhile, Amjad al-Shawa, from a Palestinian organization working with aid groups, estimates that approximately 300,000 tents will be needed to provide temporary shelter for 1.5 million displaced Gazans.

The ceasefire began on Friday morning following Israel and Hamas’s agreement on the initial phase of President Trump’s 20-point peace proposal. Negotiations for subsequent phases are expected to continue in the coming weeks.

China vows to stand firm against Trump’s 100% tariff threat

**China Stands Firm Against Trump’s 100 Percent Tariff Threat, Urges Negotiations**

*BEIJING –* China signaled on Sunday that it will not back down in response to President Donald Trump’s threat of imposing a 100 percent tariff on imports from China. The Chinese Commerce Ministry urged the US to resolve differences through negotiation rather than threats.

“China’s stance is consistent,” the Commerce Ministry said in a statement posted online. “We do not want a tariff war but we are not afraid of one.”

The statement came just two days after President Trump threatened to raise tariffs on Chinese imports by November 1. This threat was a reaction to China’s new restrictions on the export of rare earth minerals — key components used in numerous consumer and military products.

### Tensions Threaten US-China Meeting and Trade Truce

The escalating tensions risk undermining a potential meeting between President Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping, potentially ending a trade truce that saw tariffs on both sides briefly top 100 percent in April.

Throughout the year, Trump has increased import taxes on goods from multiple US trading partners with the aim of securing trade concessions. China, however, has remained resilient, relying on its significant economic clout.

“Frequently resorting to the threat of high tariffs is not the correct way to get along with China,” the Commerce Ministry emphasized in its online post, presented as responses from an unnamed spokesperson to media inquiries. The statement called for resolving concerns through dialogue.

“If the US side obstinately insists on its practice, China will be sure to resolutely take corresponding measures to safeguard its legitimate rights and interests,” the post warned.

### Rare Earths: A Critical Point of Contention

Both China and the US accuse each other of violating the spirit of their truce by imposing new trade restrictions. President Trump has accused China of becoming “very hostile” and accused it of “holding the world captive” by restricting access to rare earth metals and magnets.

China recently implemented regulations requiring foreign companies to obtain special approval to export products containing even trace amounts of rare earth elements sourced from China. These critical minerals are essential for a wide range of products, including jet engines, radar systems, electric vehicles, laptops, and smartphones.

China currently accounts for nearly 70 percent of the world’s rare earth mining and controls approximately 90 percent of global rare earth processing, making access to these materials a key issue in ongoing trade negotiations between Washington and Beijing.

The Commerce Ministry clarified that export licenses would be issued for legitimate civilian uses but noted that these minerals also have military applications.

### Retaliation and Ongoing Disputes

The Ministry also accused the US of introducing new restrictions in recent weeks. These include expanding the list of Chinese companies subject to US export controls and moving forward with new port fees on Chinese ships, set to take effect on Tuesday.

In response, China announced on Friday that it would impose corresponding port fees on American ships.

The escalating tit-for-tat measures underscore the fragile state of US-China trade relations as both countries continue to assert their economic and strategic interests.

Durgapur gang-rape: NCW suggests probing survivor’s friend, political controversy erupts

Durgapur Gang-Rape: NCW Suggests Probing Survivor’s Friend, Political Controversy Erupts

By Snehil Singh | Oct 12, 2025 | 02:05 PM

The National Commission for Women (NCW) has recommended that police interrogate a friend of the 23-year-old Odisha college student who was allegedly gang-raped in Durgapur, West Bengal. NCW member Archana Majumdar met the survivor at a hospital, where the victim revealed that her friend had persuaded her to leave her private college shortly before the attack on Friday.

Investigation Progress: Friend Also Under Scanner

So far, three suspects have been arrested and one detained in connection with the case. The accused have been identified as Apu Bauri (21), Firdos Sekh (23), Sekh Reajuddin (31), and Sheikh Sofiqul.

The survivor’s father also indicated possible involvement of the friend, stating that the friend fled when the accused cornered his daughter. “The survivor’s friend is also under the scanner. He had insisted that she go out with him. When the survivor was cornered by the accused, he fled the scene,” said NCW member Archana Majumdar.

Allegations: Friend Left Her Alone, Say Police

The survivor’s mother alleged that her daughter was gang-raped around 10:00 PM last Friday. According to police, an initial probe revealed that the survivor went out with her friend around 8:00 to 8:30 PM.

“The friend left her alone when three unidentified men arrived there,” a police officer speaking on the condition of anonymity said. The accused reportedly snatched the woman’s phone and took her to a jungle outside the campus, where they raped her, threatening serious consequences if she disclosed the incident to anyone.

Political Response: Calls for Immediate Arrests

Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi has assured the survivor’s family of the state government’s support amid the investigation. Meanwhile, leaders from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Odisha and West Bengal have demanded the swift arrest of all those involved in the case.

Suvendu Adhikari, Leader of Opposition in the West Bengal assembly, accused the Mamata Banerjee administration—who is also the state’s police minister—of law and order collapse.

Minister’s Statement: Investigation Following All Protocols

West Bengal Women and Child Development Minister Sashi Panja described the incident as “deeply unfortunate” and emphasized that politicizing crimes against women is undesirable.

East Asansol Deputy Commissioner of Police Abhishek Gupta confirmed on Sunday that all investigation protocols are being followed. A drone has been deployed to track a fifth accused believed to be involved in the case.
