Kill them. "The controversial president threatens violators of" Corona's actions "



    In light of the strict preventive measures taken by most countries of the world to confront the Corona epidemic, Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte warned violators of the quarantine rules that they might be shot if they make trouble.
"It is necessary for everyone to cooperate and follow domestic quarantine procedures," Duterte said in a televised speech, as the authorities strive to slow the infection and prevent the country's fragile health system from collapsing.


The Philippines recorded 96 deaths from the Coruna virus and 2,311 confirmed infections, and after the number of infections was small at first it is now in the hundreds per day.
Duterte, the controversial president, said: "The situation is getting worse. So I again notify you of the seriousness of the problem and you have to listen. My orders to the police and the army are that if there are disturbances and you see that your life is in danger by facing you, then kill them by shooting."
He added: "Is this understood? Kill. I will bury you instead of causing trouble."


His comments came after the media published reports of unrest and arrests, on Wednesday, of residents of a poor area in the capital, Manila, who were protesting against the lack of food aid provided by the government.
But the national police chief said that the security forces "realize that the president is expressing his seriousness about public order, and that the forces will not shoot anyone."

A solar storm hits the earth on the first day of spring

Space weather forecasters have noticed a stream of solar winds coming toward us, which could hit Earth on March 19, the first day of spring. Scientists said that the solar wind could lead to the aurora borealis in the northern hemisphere. The stream of particles stems from the sun from a small hole on the surface of the sun, allowing winds to penetrate the solar system and move to its depths. The Space Weather website reported global predictions: "A small current from the solar wind is expected to hit the Earth's magnetic field on March 19, which may cause the twilight to occur around the Arctic Circle. The gaseous material flows from a newly opened hole in the sun's atmosphere." The aurora borealis occurs when solar particles strike the atmosphere, and when charged particles from the sun strike atoms in the Earth's atmosphere, which consists of different gases such as oxygen and nitrogen, those atoms are excited to give different colors with diffe...

mother's Day

Mother's Day is a celebration that appeared recently at the beginning of the twentieth century, and is celebrated in some countries to honor mothers and motherhood, the mother's association with their children, and the influence of mothers on society. This appeared in the desire of Western and European thinkers, after they found children in their societies neglecting their mothers and not giving their full care to them, so they wanted to make a day of the year to remind the children of their mothers. Later, the scope of the celebrants widened to become celebrated in many days and in various cities in the world, and most often it is celebrated in the month of March, April or May.
