A fuel tank truck exploded near Sierra Leone's capital, killing at least 98 people and severely injuring dozens of others, after large crowds gathered to collect leaking fuel, officials and witnesses said Saturday. The explosion took place late Friday when the tanker collided with another truck as it was pulling into a gas station near a busy intersection in Wellington, just east of the capital Freetown, according to the National Disaster Management Agency. "Both drivers came out of their vehicles and warned community residents to stay off the scene while trying to address a leakage emanating from the collision," the agency said. In this deeply impoverished country, however, crowds still rushed in to scoop up fuel, witnesses said.

The latest national pledges submitted to the UN climate conference in Glasgow to tackle climate change this decade would lead to around 2.4 degrees Celsius of global warming this century, far above safe levels, analysts said on Tuesday.

"Therefore, all governments need to reconsider their targets." W...

Its annual report on violence against the descendants of Brazil's original inhabitants said there were 182 murders of indigenous people in 2020, compared to 113 murders in 2019, a 61 per cent surge. There were 263 reported land invasions, an "alarming" increase of 137 per cent over incursions on indigenous territory the previous year. The report blamed the government for failing to protect indigenous communities, while pushing legislation that would open their reservations to commercial mining, oil and gas exploration and the building of hydroelectric dams. Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, who once praised US Army cavalry colonel George Armstrong Custer for clearing the prairies of indigenous ...
