Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.



Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened down 309-points this morning from yesterday's close, at
19,992 on turnover of 83-billion N-T.

The market recouped its early losses on Thursday caused by increased
volatility on Wall Street overnight.

Bargain hunters stepped-in late in the session. .

However, the gains were capped after recent inflation reports in the US were
hotter than expect.

And investor concerns grew over the possibility of the U-S Federal Reserve
delaying a rate cut cycle.

The Taiex continues to lose ground, heading into midday trading.


MODA Upgrades Taiping Island Satellite Network System
The Ministry of Digital Affairs says the establishment of signal connectivity
with a newly-launched satellite network system on Taiping Island has boosted
communications efficiency there.

According to the ministry, the new system enables (使能夠) coastguard
personnel stationed there to use improved communication and better meets
their audiovisual needs.

Wi-Fi and mobile network services were officially activated on Taiping Island
earlier this week.

This comes after tests on the newly installed Medium Earth Orbit satellite
terminal equipment were completed.

That equipment is capable of sending and receiving signals from a satellite
communications service provider based in Luxembourg.

The digital ministry says the total transmission bandwidth available to
personnel on the island can now reach 25-Megabits per second.

This is an approximate 3.9-fold increase in communication efficiency compared
to before.


US Vetoes Palestine's Bid to Join UN
Palestine has not been admitted to the United Nations as a full member,
following a Security Council vote.

On Thursday, the United States vetoed the bid - as was widely expected.

Sally Patterson reports from the UN headquarters in New York.


NATO EU Officials Urge Defense Systems for Ukraine
Top NATO and European Union officials are urging industrialized nations to
take quick and concrete steps to provide more air defense systems to Ukraine.

EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell warned on Thursday that continued
delays could tilt (偏向) the war in Moscow’s favor.

Borrell was speaking on the Italian island of Capri at the start of a G7
foreign ministers meeting.

He told reporters that without Patriot air defense missile systems to guard
against incoming Russian strikes, “the electricity system of Ukraine will be
destroyed."

And he said that no country can fight a war without electricity.



Brazil da Silva Creates Two New Indigenous Territories
Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has announced the creation
(創建) of two new Indigenous territories.

This brings the total number of new reserves created during his term to 10.

The Cacique Fontoura reserve will be in Mato Grosso state and the Aldeia
Velha territory will be in Bahia state.

They cover a combined total area of almost 342 square kilometers.

Speaking at a ceremony Thursday in Brasilia, Lula’s said the latest two new
territories would not be enough.

He cited legal issues for the delay in setting aside additional lands.

He says Indigenous peoples should be patient as he seeks to fulfill his
pledge (保證) of creating 14 new territories.


That was the I.C.R.T. news,

Check in again tomorrow for our simplified version of the news, uploaded
every day in the afternoon.

Enjoy the rest of your day, I'm _____.
