They got loans from the banks, they borrowed, they sold their things and they started making small hotels, homestays. Tourism says, 'OK, you start homestay'.

STORYLINE:

There are hardly any tourists in the scenic Himalayan region of Kashmir.

Most of the hotels and ornate pinewood houseboats are empty. Resorts in the snowclad mountains have fallen silent. Hundreds of cabs are parked and idle.

It’s the fallout of last month’s gun massacre that left 26 people, mostly Hindu tourists, dead in Indian-controlled Kashmir, followed by tit-for-tat military strikes by India and Pakistan, bringing the nuclear-armed rivals to the brink of their third war over the region.

Lines of colorful hand-carved boats, known as shikaras, lie deserted, mostly anchored still on Srinagar’s normally bustling Dal Lake.

6. Banner reading (Spanish): "We are all retirees, defend your future."

7. Man with a sign reading (Spanish): "Nobody can thrive alone."

8. Man chanting

9. Various of police by Congress

STORYLINE:

Pensioners and supporters clashed with police on Wednesday during a protest outside Argentina's Congress against the economic policies implemented by President Javier Milei's government.

What began as a small and peaceful demonstration in Buenos Aires turned into clashes when protesters tried to block a street.

Police detained photojournalist Tomas Cuesta and released him hours later. Another photographer, Javier Iglesias, was also arrested but was not immediately released.

Two months ago during a protest also by retirees, photojournalist Pablo Grillo was shot by police with a tear gas canister that fractured his skull. He remains hospitalized.

Protests by pensioners have been held every Wednesday in Buenos Aires for several weeks to express their complaints about adjustments they say have made their standard of living more precarious.

The monthly minimum pension for May is over just about 260 dollars, insufficient to cover basic needs, retiree groups denounce.

The government of far-right President Javier Milei, who has been pursuing a policy of tightening public spending since he came to power a year and a half ago, had warned of restrictions on stadiums for those who rioted.

Milei decreed in March 2024 that pensions would be updated monthly based on the latest available inflation data.

Although the government managed to control inflation within a year, retirees complain that their incomes are consistently lagging because the new formula was implemented after the 50% devaluation of the local currency in December 2023.

++STARTS AND ENDS ON A SOUNDBITE+

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Putrajaya, Malaysia - 21 May 2025

1. SOUNDBITE (English) Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysian Prime Minister:

“We are able to engage with all parties, number one. We are able to secure a ceasefire. And number three, we are able to ensure that all humanitarian aid can go to any subregion controlled by any group. There are three groups now. So thus far to me, it’s a good beginning,”

++BLACK FRAMES++

2. SOUNDBITE (English) Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysian Prime Minister:

“The first serious attempt at engagement has happened and we have to move beyond that now."

++BLACK FRAMES++

3. SOUNDBITE (English) Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysian Prime Minister:

“Has it escalated to a situation where it is potentially very explosive? No. Has it proceeded to the extent that no possibility of talks or negotiations like Ukraine, Russia? No, no, no. It’s far from that.”

STORYLINE:

Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim on Wednesday said a ceasefire in Myanmar, increased engagement and widening access for humanitarian aid after March’s devastating earthquake marked a good start to push the peace process forward in the war-torn nation.

Anwar said he believed “remarkable progress” has been made recently in Myanmar, over four years after the army ousted an elected government that sparked widespread rebellion and a civil war.

The military junta and the shadow National Unity Government have agreed to a temporary truce following the earthquake that killed over 3,700 people.

Anwar himself held talks with both sides and even though talks currently focused on humanitarian aid, he said “we inevitably would touch on the issue of Myanmar’s return to the ASEAN framework."

5. SOUNDBITE (English) Natalie Hudson, Political Science Professor, Executive Director of the Human Rights Center at the University of Dayton:

“It's an opportunity for Americans to learn, but I think it's also a tremendous opportunity for all the parliamentarians who are coming as part of the summit from Europe and Canada, and their families, to learn more about the United States and to sort of step away from the left-right divide or the latest thing out of the federal government, but to sort have a cultural exchange. That's so important when it when we think about peace whether it's peace in our own country or peace over in Bosnia and Herzegovina, cultural understanding, knowing people, that's really important. So having it here, I think, has huge value for those involved."

6. Sign in downtown Dayton

7. Various interiors of venue where the assembly will take place

8. SOUNDBITE (English) Chris Kershner, president and CEO of Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce:

“This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, not only for our community, but for everybody who's working on it, so everybody is truly excited. They know they're part of something special. They know their part of history happening right here in Dayton, Ohio and they're excited to have NATO here and they're welcoming them with open arms.”

9. Various of downtown Dayton

STORYLINE:

Representatives of NATO-aligned nations will gather beginning Thursday in the Ohio city of Dayton, where an end to the three-year Bosnian War was brokered 30 years ago.

The NATO Parliamentary Assembly will unpack the lessons of the Dayton Peace Accords for navigating ongoing global conflicts.

Organizers are framing the event as a celebration of peace and diplomacy.

“It's an opportunity for Americans to learn, but I think it's also a tremendous opportunity for all the parliamentarians who are coming as part of the summit from Europe and Canada, and their families, to learn more about the United States and to sort of step away from the left-right divide or the latest thing out of the federal government, but to sort have a cultural exchange," said Natalie Hudson, a Political Science Professor and Executive Director of the Human Rights Center at the University of Dayton.

It's the first time the event has been held in the U.S. since 2003.

Roughly 300 parliamentarians from 32 NATO nations are expected.

The five-day meeting comes as the Trump administration has seemed to place conditions on the U.S. defending its NATO allies in Europe.

Bars in the Christian areas of Damascus have been on high alert after recent attacks that targeted establishments serving alcohol. In late April, surveillance footage outside a nightclub in Damascus went viral showing men and women fleeing the establishment with masked gunmen standing outside hitting them as they ran away. Britain-based war monitor The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the gunmen were from government-aligned militias, who raided the restaurant and fired warning shots.

Days later on May 2nd, unknown gunmen opened fire at another Damascus nightclub in the morning killing a woman and wounding others. Local television network Syria TV said the perpetrators were five men in military garb, and their identities and motives were unknown.

At Soul Bar in old Damascus, co-owner Alaa Saloum said the attacks affected his business. He acknowledged that the attacks are singular or lone attacks, but said it caused people to be fearful.

“But after the recent events in Karawan (nightclub) and other places, people got scared, so our customers are not going out at night or staying out late anymore,” he said.

Business is also down because the government is not issuing alcohol licenses at the moment.

What bars have resorted to doing is allowing customers to bring their own alcohol into the bar, while they serve them mixers and water.

2. Mid of Federal police officers walking and protesters following, protesters chanting UPSOUND (English): "Show your face, coward"

STORYLINE:

Across the United States in immigration courts from New York to Seattle this week, Homeland Security officials are ramping up arrests in what appears to be a coordinated dragnet testing out new legal levers deployed by President Donald Trump's administration to carry out mass arrests.

While Trump campaigned on a pledge of mass removals of what he calls “illegals,” he's struggled to carry out his plans amid a series of lawsuits, the refusal of some foreign governments to take back their nationals and a lack of detention facilities to house migrants slated for deportation.

Nationwide, detentions have surged 21%(CK) since Trump took office to nearly 49,005 as of May 5. But in recent weeks, the number of arrests have flatlined and deportation levels actually trail those seen at the end of the Biden administration.

In Phoenix, federal police officers blocked protesters from approaching a van after two people were taken into custody following an immigration court hearing.

Arrests are extremely rare in or immediately near immigration courts, which are run by the Justice Department.

When they have occurred, it was usually because the individual was charged with a criminal offense or their asylum claim had been denied.

'I trust you, I trust, you, I trust' and you have been able to rehearse with these people and build a relationship. And you all know to keep the ball in the air, right? This was my fear with bringing in a film crew. Once you bring in a different element or different media to then be a part of that team. And they're coming in well beyond everybody else then you have to really release all of that and say, ‘OK, now I trust all of these new team members to protect and honor the contract that we agreed to months and months or sometimes years and years ago.’ So. Petui, Petui. Merde to them. I'll be watching."
