Play Video: International Day of Persons with Disabilities

The annual observance of the International Day of Disabled Persons was proclaimed in 1992 by the United Nations General Assembly. The observance of the Day aims to promote an understanding of disability issues and mobilize support for the dignity, rights and well-being of persons with disabilities. It also seeks to increase awareness of gains to be derived from the integration of persons with disabilities in every aspect of political, social, economic and cultural life. The theme for this year is "Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future." This theme recognizes the important role that persons with disabilities play in creating a more inclusive and sustainable world for all. It also emphasizes the importance of the participation of persons with disabilities in decision-making processes that affect their lives. The theme this year reflects the current international political and policy context, in particular the Pact for the Future and the upcoming 2025 World Summit for Social Development, and the need to create momentum for achieving the 2030 Agenda. The theme seeks to amplify the centrality of the leadership role of persons with disabilities, in all of these efforts - from the global to the local.

Biden’s three-day visit to oil-rich Angola will focus largely on the Lobito Corridor railway redevelopment which aims to advance the US presence in a region rich in the minerals used to make batteries for electric vehicles. The railway line will stretch for 1,344km (835 miles) from the mines of Democratic Republic of Congo to the Angolan port city of Lobito on the Atlantic Ocean.

Play Video: Fears fragile Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire could collapse | BBC News

Israel and Hezbollah have launched attacks against each other, with both sides saying they were retaliating against violations of the truce agreement. A ceasefire deal to end 13 months of conflict between Israel and Hezbollah was signed last week. At least nine people have been killed by Israeli strikes on two southern Lebanese villages, according to the country's public health ministry. Israel said it struck targets on Monday evening in retaliation for an attack by Iran-backed Hezbollah on a military post in the Mount Dov area. It added there were no injuries in Hezbollah's strikes. Hezbollah said it was responding to Israeli "violations" and said it carried out a "defensive warning" strike, firing mortars at an Israeli army position in an area occupied by Israel.

Vietnamese property tycoon Truong My Lan has lost her appeal against her death sentence for masterminding the world’s biggest bank fraud. The 68-year-old is now in a race for her life because the law in Vietnam states that if she can pay back 75% of what she took, her sentence will be commuted to life imprisonment. In April a trial found she had secretly controlled Saigon Commercial Bank and taken out loans and cash over more than 10 years through a web of shell companies, amounting to a total of $44bn (£34.5bn). Of that prosecutors say $27bn was misappropriated, and $12bn was judged to have been embezzled, the most serious financial crime for which she was sentenced to death.

Syrian rebel fighters have released dramatic footage of the moment they stormed several key landmarks in Aleppo. This was the moment a gunfight broke out at the Aleppo Central Prison in the north of the city. The rebels, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), took over most of Syria’s second-largest city in a surprise offensive on Saturday. The breakthrough comes years after Syrian regime forces recaptured the prison in 2014, relieving a small garrison of government soldiers who resisted a rebel siege for more than a year.
