Your World.
Bold & Bright

Start your day smarter with a dossier on the most important world news, rounded
off with a shot of intriguing and offbeat stories. Like the president, you
deserve no less.

Mar 11, 2022


TODAY

Russia continued its slow and pulverizing assault on Ukraine overnight and
satellite images suggested a ground attack on Kyiv might be imminent. Chile’s
first same-sex couples got married after a new law came into effect. New
research shows over 18 million people are likely to have died due to COVID-19 —
three times more than official figures. And Chelsea FC owner Roman Abramovich is
one of seven Russian billionaires blacklisted by the U.K. government. All this
and more in today’s PDB.






IMPORTANT

Imminent Disaster

CATASTROPHE IN MARIUPOL; KYIV CONVOY ON THE MOVE AGAIN

Good news was in short supply in Ukraine early Friday. Overnight Russian missile
strikes on the emergency services center in Mariupol meant that news from the
besieged city, where civilians’ bodies are being buried in trenches, was
limited. Missile attacks on places far from the Russians’ main advance suggest
President Vladimir Putin might be trying to stem the flow of weapons into
Ukraine. And satellite images showed the 40-mile Russian convoy that had stalled
on the outskirts of Kyiv is now splitting up for a possible ground attack on
Ukraine’s capital. Mayor Vitali Klitschko says the city has been “transformed
into a fortress.” (Sources: Al Jazeera, NYT)

We Do!

JOY AS CHILE’S FIRST SAME-SEX MARRIAGES TAKE PLACE

Yesterday, Javier Silva and Jaime Nazar became the first two men to wed in
Chilean history after a law passed in December came into effect. Being married
means both men will now be recognized as parents of their two children. While
civil unions had been allowed since 2015, under those rules only biological
parents had legal rights. Silva is the biological father of 20-month-old
Clemente, while Nazar fathered little sister Lola María. Both were born to a
surrogate mother in Colombia. “This law allows us to show a new kind of family
unit,” said Isabel Amor of LGBT rights group Fundación Iguales. (Sources: BBC,
NBC News)

Excess Deaths

COVID-19 DEATHS LIKELY THREE TIMES HIGHER THAN OFFICIAL RECORDS

Exactly two years after the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus a
pandemic, a report in The Lancet showed that 18.2 million people have probably
died because of it. Researchers at Washington University studied excess death
data in 191 countries to arrive at what they term the “true global death
figure.” Excess deaths varied drastically by country, with the study putting the
global average at 120 deaths per 100,000. Figures were worse in developing
countries, with Bolivia, Bulgaria and Eswatini topping the list. At the other
end of the spectrum, Iceland, Australia and Singapore escaped the pandemic most
lightly. (Source: BBC)

‘Blood on Their Hands’

UK FREEZES ASSETS OF 7 RUSSIAN BILLIONAIRES, INCLUDING ABRAMOVICH

Drumroll, please. Roman Abramovich, owner of Chelsea Football Club, is on the
list of wealthy Russians to have their British assets frozen. Prime Minister
Boris Johnson said the seven — who are also subject to travel bans — were
targeted for “clear evidence that they are connected to the Putin regime.”
Foreign Secretary Liz Truss went further, saying the oligarchs would “have no
place in our economy or society” because “the blood of the Ukrainian people is
on their hands.” Despite those strong words, a special license for
“football-related activities” means that Abramovich will continue to have some
place in the U.K. economy. (Sources: The Guardian, Al Jazeera)

Briefly

HERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT TODAY: 

Smollet sentenced. Former Empire actor Jussie Smollet was sentenced to 150 days
in jail for making false reports to police that he was a victim of a hate crime.
(Source: CNN) Sesame Street sadness. Emilio Delgado, who played fix-it shop
owner Luis on Sesame Street for 45 years, died of cancer on Thursday. He was 81.
(Source: AP) Say it to my face. Victims of the opioid crisis finally got to
confront members of the billionaire Sackler family who own OxyContin maker
Purdue Pharma in a virtual session of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. (Source: Al

INTRIGUING

Bat From the Brink

HORSESHOE BAT PRESUMED EXTINCT SPOTTED IN RWANDA

“When we caught it, we all just … said, ‘You look ridiculous. Look how big your
nose leaf is,’” said Jon Flanders of Bat Conservation International. Then they
raced to confirm the specimen caught in Rwanda’s Nyungwe National Park was a
Hill’s horseshoe bat — a species unseen since 1981. While the bat’s appearance
tallied with descriptions, scientists were initially confounded by its
echolocation calls, which registered at unusually low frequencies. Turns out it
echolocates through its nose and uses those “ridiculous” nose leaves to control
its baritone calls. Now that we know how it sounds, monitoring it will be much
easier. (Source: Mongabay)

Hot Flash

CLIMATE CHANGE IS FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGING EUROPEAN BIRDS

After studying 60 years’ data on 60 different bird species in Britain and the
Netherlands, researchers found that 86% of species are changing their egg-laying
schedules and around 30% are getting smaller and laying fewer eggs. They’ve also
calculated that 57% of those changes are due to temperature warming: Other
factors like urbanization, pollution and habitat loss make up the difference.
Chiffchaffs are laying their eggs 12 days earlier than before, resulting in a
mismatch between when chicks are born and when food is available. Meanwhile, the
redstart is getting bigger and laying more eggs, but it’s clearly an outlier.

Slippery Character

SMUGGLER TRIES TO SLITHER INTO THE US WITH 52 REPTILES IN HIS CLOTHING

They’ll never look … there! A 30-year-old American citizen was arrested at the
San Diego-San Ysidro border with Mexico after officials found 43 horned lizards
and nine snakes on his person. The critters were tied up in small bags “which
were concealed in the man’s jacket, pants pockets, and groin area,” according to
a statement from U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The man was remanded at
Metropolitan Correctional Center and the reptiles were moved to a “secure and
safe area.” The animals will remain in quarantine since some of them are
endangered. (Sources: AP, NPR)

It’s About Time

PHILIPPINES RAISES AGE OF CONSENT TO 16

In what one lawmaker termed “a major step forward” for minor victims of rape and
sexual abuse, President Rodrigo Duterte has approved a bill raising the minimum
age of sexual consent from 12 to 16. The Philippines had one of the world’s
lowest ages of consent, behind Nigeria’s age of 11. A 2015 study found that 70%
of the country’s rape victims were children. Under the new bill any adult
engaging in sexual contact with an under-16 is guilty of statutory rape, unless
the age difference between them is less than three years and the sex is proven
to be consensual. (Source: Reuters)

Play Ball!

MLB AND PLAYERS’ UNION STRIKE DEAL, SETTLE ON 162-GAME SEASON

After 99 days, baseball is back. Or at least it will be on April 7. Team owners
and the MLB Players Association finally agreed on a five-year collective
bargaining agreement that’ll boost young players’ salaries, expand the
postseason, and further incentivize teams to compete. The deal was almost
scuppered by a last-minute disagreement over an international draft system, but
both sides agreed to push that decision back until July 25. Yankees pitcher
Gerrit Cole said he hopes getting back on the field will “be the first step to
maybe trying to mend some of the fences with some of the fans.” (Sources: NYT,
ESPN)
