🇨🇺🇺🇸 Um registro mostra o desespero dos passageiros do voo 3923 da Southwest Airlines, que ia de Cuba para Fort Lauderdale, na Flórida, depois que um de seus motores pegou fogo e teve que fazer um pouso de emergência na capital Havana na manhã deste domingo (5).
"O voo 3923 da Southwest partindo de Havana, Cuba, para Fort Lauderdale, Flórida, na manha deste domingo, supostamente sofreu colisões com pássaros em um motor e no nariz da aeronave logo após a decolagem", disse um porta-voz da companhia aérea em comunicado à NBC 6.
"Três explosões foram ouvidas e o avião começou a soltar fumaça preta em uma das turbinas", descreve um morador do bairro de Calabazar, em Havana

Oh my, what a quandary we're in,
With seals, lions, bears,
All dying from a flu so grim,
#H5N1's spreading, we must not give in 🧵

🧵 The election in #Colombia of Gustavo Petro, a Marxist & ally of narco-terrorists, is alarming. Dictatorships in #Havana #Caracas #Managua #Moscow are already celebrating. The spread of totalitarian socialism is a grave threat to US national security & LATAM stability. (1)
We should all pray for the Colombian people. Socialism brings suffering, death & destruction. More than 100M died globally as victims of socialist systems. Already, fear of violence & instability are driving people & capital to flee #Colombia. (2)

Colombia has long been key US ally & beacon of democracy in LATAM. In fact, earlier this year, US designated Colombia as Major Non-NATO Ally.
A socialist govt will bring dire consequences for Colombia, US & entire region. Crime, terrorism & drug trafficking will skyrocket. (3)

February 2021 we called on @govuk to investigate an alarming spike in gas explosions in the following an investigation by @adamtomforrest @Independent
With fuel costs set to rise we are deeply worried that the instance of gas explosions may rise in the UK & safety gas remain

Forgive the date typo which should read 29/11/1985
always hard covering each gas explosion & reminders of our own family’s loss
One morning uncle John’s family of four were gone - with an undetected gas leak + flick of a switch or boiler detonating the explosive atmosphere.

@Propofolium @Lenri1720 @Chrissip81 1/x Vor Wochen berichtet ich über meine Mieter die sich trotz Angebot(!) nicht gegen #COVID19 #impfen lassen wollten. #biontec und Co wären zur Auswahl gewesen. Er, durchtrainiert wie sonst was, hatte den schwersten Verlauf.
2/x miese Sättigung, Husten wie nach zwei Packungen #havana auf Lunge und der Weg zu Klo sorgte für Schweißausbrüche. Von den 120kg Bankdrücken ganz weit weg…..zwei Wochen Sichtum dann PCR negativ…#genesen
3/x Heute 8 Anrufe in Abwesenheit seiner Ehefrau. Ihr Mann ist im Badezimmer kollabiert, #nef und #Feuerwehr vor Ort und mussten die Türe aufbrechen. Liegt jetzt im Krankenhaus. Lungenleistung, Blutdruck, Blutwerte etc. nicht so toll…Der ist gefühlt in 20 Jahre gealtert
1/Let me explain why we should not use term #HavanaSyndrome to describe #UnidentifiedHealthIncidents (UHI).
I have been working these cases for nearly a decade. I rep victims from @StateDept, @DeptofDefense, @CommerceGov & @CIA.
Using Havana Syndrome undermines our efforts.

2/First, I get it. Media likes a simple term to fit all examples. They don't know how else to describe what has been happening.
Respectfully, not a good enough reason.

3/These cases started LONG before Havana, Cuba in 2016. Evidence exists tracking back these symptoms & incidents 50 years. My first client #MichaelBeck, @NSAGov employee, was impacted in 1996.

Great thread from @BootsRiley (from @TheCoup & @Sorry2BotherYou) on #Cuba.
I was in #Havana for March 11 2018 Cuban parliamentary elections, and agree entirely… and was also there during the February 24th Cuban Constitutional referendum & saw vibrant & democratic public debate.

During the March 11th 2018 Cuban parliamentary elections, Suzanne (@esooze) & I saw competing candidate posters in our Centro #Havana neighbourhood & apartment block.
During the Feb. 24th 2019 Cuban Constitutional Referendum, we saw vibrant debate… and 90.61% in support.

The impact of the 60-year-old ongoing embargo, blockade and economic sanctions against the Cuban people by the US government can not be overstated.
Throughout the global health pandemic, the blockade has restricted medical supplies to #Cuba, and more.

Juan Carlos Finlay y de Barrés was born in Puerto Príncipe (now Camagüey), Cuba to Scottish-born Dr. Edward (Eduardo) Finlay and French-born Elisa (Isabel) de Barrés.
A graduate of @JeffersonUniv, #Philadelphia (1855), he returned to #Cuba, where he practiced medicine in #Havana.
Having such a wonderful time in #Havana with @Tony_Tracy on the second day of our six-week-long #Cuba trip! 🇨🇺
Reminded of our earlier travels here in past years (like this video from our 2013 Havana trip).
Much has changed, but much remains the same.

Much has changed, but much remains the same.
One of the most profound changes in #Havana is something that we’d take for granted elsewhere: widespread accessibility of fairly fast internet (including, over the past year-and-a-bit, high-speed LTE internet by cellphone).
Honestly, LTE cell service in #Cuba is a game-changer.

When @Tony_Tracy & I travelled to #Havana for the first time together for a couple of weeks in 2011, wifi service was unavailable except in fairly pricy 4-and-5 star hotels & resorts, and it was dreadfully slow even then. I remember us paying as much as 5 CUC per hour!

I've been trying to figure out what the "Intelligence-Gathering Vessel" was that the @RoyalNavy (infuriatingly) wouldn't name or post pictures of that crossed the English Channel on Christmas Eve. Because of the timing, I strongly suspected it was the Viktor Leonov AGI. #SpyShip
I can now say, with a high degree of confidence, a Russian Navy AGI stopped in Trinidad & Tabago 2018-01-11 to restock, and they have likely left by now. I suspect, but cannot yet confirm, that AGI is the Viktor Leonov|Виктор Леонов, the Vishnya-class intelligence ship. #SpyShip
You may remember the collective freak-out when there was a Russian Navy intelligence gathering vessel off the US East Coast last Feb-Mar. That info was Secret(or higher)-classified Navy intelligence, leaked by the Pentagon, but there was no investigation or pursuit of the leaker.
