- 40 feared dead as boat capsizes in Zambia
About 40 people are feared dead after a boat they were traveling in capsized on a lake in northern Zambia, state broadcaster the Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation reported Tuesday.
The boat capsized on Lake Tanganyika around midday when it was coming from the mountainous area Kapembwa to the Mpulungu district in the province, the report said.
It is near the place where nine people died early this year when rocks fell from a mountain due to strong wind sweeping through the area.

- Africa at loggerheads over ivory auction
Tanzania and Zambia are seeking permission to sell off their stockpiles to Japan and ChinaIt is the most divisive environmental issue in Africa. Last week the temperature in the already heated debate over whether to allow ivory sales rose sharply as Tanzania and Zambia sought permission to sell their stockpiles to Japan and China. The request was made at a conference on the Convention of International Trade in Endangered Species (Cites), which opened a two-week meeting in Qatar last week. The move is being opposed by 23 other African countries, which argue that the legal trade will stimulate poaching of elephants.The worldwide trade in ivory has been banned since 1989, but several one-off sales of stockpiled tusks have been allowed on condition that the proceeds were spent on conservation. The last auctions occurred in 2008, when South Africa, Botswana, Namibia and Zimbabwe sold 108 tonnes of ivory to Japan and China. At the time, the elephant population in the four countries topped 312,000, with the numbers increasing.Tanzania and Zambia want to lower their protection status, which would enable governments legally to sell 112 tonnes of ivory. Zambia argues that its stockpiles, which consist mainly of tusks from animals that died naturally, are too costly to maintain, and says the $1m it raises will be spent on improving elephant strongholds.A counter-proposal has been launched by seven African countries including Mali and Tanzania's northern neighbour, Kenya, which prohibits hunting and culling. The countries are seeking a 20-year moratorium on all sales of stockpiled ivory. Kenya argues that the special sales in 2008 expanded the international market for ivory and stimulated demand, contributing to a sharp rise in the number of elephants killed in the country. タンザニア、ザンビアの許可日本への備蓄を売却し、ChinaItアフリカで最も分裂の環境問題が求めている
