Residents of the national capital breathed in despair on Saturday, with the air quality plunging back to the ‘severe’ category as average Air Quality Index (AQI) pegged at 412. According to the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), the prominent pollutant in the national capital’s air on Saturday was the PM 2.5 (particulate matter), which refers to particles with a diameter of 2.5 micrometers or smaller. The highest AQI level on Saturday was recorded at Wazirpur with the index value of 450, at 4 pm, as per the CPCB. Advertisement Despite implementation of the various measures as per the anti- pollution plan in force across the city, AQI levels are still high, with people getting affected by the harmful effects of pollutants causing respiratory issues and aggravating the conditions of those already suffering from pulmonary ailments, cardiac problems and Cerebrovascular problems. Masks seem to have become a part of daily life, as people who have to venture out for work have no other option, but to wear them to prevent themselves from harmful effects of pollution. According to Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva’s claims, people are buying expensive air purifiers, while anti- allergy medicines have become part of daily life of many households. Meteorological conditions seem unfavorable presently for the dispersion of pollutants, as per the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, however the weather agency has said that AQI index may step down from severe category on Sunday, and remain under ‘very poor’ zone till Monday. Anti- smog guns, water sprinklers could be seen across the city’s roads, especially on those with more traffic, but on the other hand Delhi BJP says that the Resident Welfare Associations claim they did not see smog guns or water sprinklers functioning in the colonies. Meanwhile, Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai visited Narela border on Friday to take stock of the situation upon receiving complaints that vehicles restricted under the Graded Response Action plan were allegedly entering the city. AdvertisementNEW ORLEANS (AP) — One person was shot to death Thursday afternoon and three others were injured in the French Quarter, New Orleans' historic tourist district, police said. Police responded to the shooting at the intersection of Iberville and Royal streets at around 12:21 p.m. and had at least one of three suspects in custody, Police Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick told reporters. Kirkpatrick said at least three masked suspects were in a silver 2016 Honda Accord when they pulled up outside Dickie Brennan’s Steakhouse and opened fire. “This was not random, and we could see that,” Kirkpatrick said in a media briefing at the scene. The arrested suspect's name and the expected charges have not yet been released. Kirkpatrick urged the other suspects to come forward. “We know who you are,” she said. “We're asking you to come in, turn yourself in.” At least one firearm has been recovered, she said. It’s the second shooting incident within a week in Orleans Parish. Related: On Sunday, gunfire broke out twice as the Nine Times Social Aid & Pleasure Club’s second line parade rolled through a neighborhood, wounding 10 people, then killing two people and wounding a third 45 minutes later as the parade crossed the Almonaster bridge. “Tragically, we are faced with another mass shooting this week,” said New Orleans City Council president Helena Moreno in a statement. “This is an overall gun violence problem throughout our city and we cannot stand for it. This is not who we are and those responsible will be apprehended and fully prosecuted.” Kirkpatrick noted that in November 2023, 20 murders were recorded. Thursday's shooting brings the number to nine so far for November 2024, she said. The last shooting involving multiple people in the French Quarter happened in Nov. 2022, when five people were shot, none fatally, in the 200 block of Bourbon Street. In Nov. 2016, one person died and nine were wounded in a shooting in the 100 block of Bourbon Street shooting. Meanwhile, the two victims from Thursday's incident were listed in stable condition and a third was in surgery, Kirkpatrick said. Dickie Brennan's Steakhouse was closed at the time of the shooting. No workers were injured and the business will remain closed Thursday, spokesperson Lindsay Ross told The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate. Copyright 2024 The Associated Press .

( MENAFN - AFP) Asian traders shifted tentatively Tuesday as they battled to track another record on Wall Street owing to fresh China-US worries, while the euro extended losses on concerns of Political and economic upheaval in France. A tech-led rally in the Dow and S&P 500 helped New York Stocks to a strong start to the month, having enjoyed a healthy November on hopes that US President-elect Donald trump will usher in more business-friendly measures. Investors are also looking ahead to the release of US jobs data at the end of the week which could play a key role in the federal Reserve's decision on whether to cut interest rates again. The mixed performance in Asia followed a recent run-up that was helped Monday by manufacturing activity data suggesting China's economic struggles may be coming to an end. In early trade on Tuesday, Tokyo, Sydney, Seoul, Singapore and Manila were all higher but Hong Kong, Shanghai and Wellington retreated. Fuelling uncertainty was news that Washington had announced new export restrictions taking aim at Beijing's ability to make advanced semiconductors in the latest volley in the tech standoff between the world's leading economies. The moves step up existing US efforts to tighten curbs on exports of state-of-the-art AI chips to China. Beijing hit back, saying the United States "abuses export control measures" and has "hindered normal economic and trade exchanges". The mood was also tinted by worries over Trump's second term in the White House, particularly after he warned last month that he would hit China, Canada and Mexico with heavy tariffs. "Although recent (manufacturing) data revealed that November saw the fastest expansion in factory activity in months -- likely boosted by exporters rushing to get ahead of Trump's anticipated tariff storm -- the broader economic outlook remains fraught with uncertainty," said Stephen Innes at SPI Asset Management. "This complex tapestry of market dynamics -- China's manufacturing uptick, the deepening economic concerns, and the dollar's assertive rally -- are all intricately linked to Trump's aggressive trade posturing. "His vows of imposing hefty tariffs as soon as he enters the Oval Office next month cast long shadows over the Asian markets, making investors both wary and watchful." On currency markets, the euro weakened against the dollar and was sitting at lows not seen since October last year, owing to a brewing political crisis in France, the eurozone's second-largest economy. Prime Minister Michel Barnier faces the risk of being deposed in a no-confidence vote, expected on Wednesday, after he used executive powers to force through controversial social security legislation without a vote. The left wing and the far-right National Rally of Marine Le Pen said they would back a motion bringing down the minority government, which has been in power for just three months. The yield on French government debt rose in another sign of investor concern. France must now pay as much to borrow for 10 years as Greece. - Key figures around 0230 GMT - Tokyo - Nikkei 225: UP 1.7 percent at 39,180.06 (break) Hong Kong - Hang Seng Index: DOWN 0.4 percent at 19,478.28 Shanghai - Composite: DOWN 0.3 percent at 3,354.50 Euro/dollar: DOWN at $1.0491 from $1.0499 on Monday Pound/dollar: DOWN at $1.2649 from $1.2654 Dollar/yen: UP at 149.82 yen from 149.54 yen Euro/pound: DOWN at 82.93 from 82.97 pence West Texas Intermediate: UP 0.2 percent at $68.21 per barrel Brent North Sea Crude: UP 0.2 percent at $71.97 per barrel New York - Dow: DOWN 0.3 percent at 44,782.00 points (close) London - FTSE 100: UP 0.3 at 8,312.89 (close) MENAFN02122024000143011026ID1108948906 Legal Disclaimer: MENAFN provides the information “as is” without warranty of any kind.
