- Global Fund freezes grants to Zambia over fraud
The Global Fund for Aids, Tuberculosis and Malaria stops payments to the Zambian government over corruption, while activists in South Africa plan a march on the US consulate there in protest at Obama's reduced funding for AidsThe Global Fund to fight Aids, Tuberculosis and Malaria has frozen its grants to the Zambian government, following revelations of fraud within the Ministry of Health, it said today.The Fund stopped payments to the Ministry in August last year, it said, but confirmation came only today as news of the freeze - always a sensitive issue - leaked out. Grants worth $120 million have not been paid, although $17 million has been handed over through other channels to guard against the disruption of life-saving services, such as the supply of Aids drugs.Money is still being paid to civil society organisations, which have received $180 million. This is the Global Fund's account of what happened:The freeze in disbursement came after Zambian authorities last year uncovered fraud within its own Ministry of Health. Further investigations by the Global Fund showed that the Ministry of Health was not able to safely manage grants. The organization has demanded the return of US$8 million in unspent funds from the Ministry of Health. The Global Fund has also demanded that Zambia takes action against individuals found to be involved in the unaccounted expenditures that led to the freezing of grant disbursements.The Fund says the money should be flowing again within two months, but through the UN Development Programme instead of the Ministry of Health.Meanwhile the Treatment Action Campaign, Medecins Sans Frontieres and others are planning a march on the US Consulate in Johannesburg tomorrow in protest at Obama's cuts in funding for Pepfar, the President's emergency pla 米国にいる南アフリカでの活動計画が行進を世界基金エイズのために、結核、マラリアが破損して、そこに抗議のAidsThe世界基金のオバマ氏の低減資金では、結核マラリア対策は、凍結しているエイズと闘うためにザンビア政府に支払いを領事館を停止します

- Artist and photographer Sophie Ristelhueber's best shot
Just after the Gulf war, I flew over the wounded Kuwait desert – looking for trenches and the traces of bombsIn February 1991, during the first Gulf war, I saw a photograph in Time magazine showing the impact of French bombs on the Kuwait desert. The idea of doing a work about this wounded land became an obsession. In October, I finally got a visa and went out there.I arrived in the war's aftermath. The oil wells were still burning; although they were beautifully dramatic, I took few pictures of them. Instead, the trip gave birth to a series, Fait (Fact), which consists of 71 images capturing the marks on the land: shots taken from an aeroplane or helicopter, but also from the ground. The series is not, however, about the Gulf war as such. I don't give any clue that this is Kuwait. When I exhibited it in Johannesburg, people thought it was Africa; they recognised the sand, weapons and trails of violence. I like the idea of enlarging the point of view.For this shot, I was flying over the desert and knew exactly what I was looking for: all those traces, the lines of the trenches. I was so excited I didn't realise that what I was looking at echoed Dust Breeding, a famous photograph by Man Ray. It wasn't until I got home and saw the contact sheet that I spotted the connection. Dust Breeding, taken in 1920, shows part of Duchamp's The Large Glass, an art work on panes of glass that had been left for a year and was covered in dust. Man Ray's shot is a huge influence on me because of the way it plays with scale. If you compare it with my shot, you'd think it was ingrained in my head.At the time, I was embarrassed. I put it away: I thought it looked too obvious, like I'd copied Man Ray. But I eventually showed it. I call it Because o 湾岸戦争直後、私は負傷したクウェートの砂漠の上を飛ん - トレンチのとbombsInの痕跡1991年2月、第一次湾岸戦争中に見ると、本当にはタイム誌の写真をクウェートの砂漠にフランス爆弾の影響を見ました

- My travels: Rankin on South Africa
The photographer was swept up by the energy and spirituality of an extraordinary Christian ritual cleansing ceremony in Johannesburg's Soweto townshipImages from Rankin's exhibition and book, RANKINJOZISouth Africa is an incredible country, and one that has always captivated me. It is a country of unquestionable beauty, but beyond the natural majesty, it is a melting pot of social, religious and cultural diversity. I don't think I can ever even scratch the surface of this intriguing society. Last year, the BBC approached me with an idea for a documentary exploring the country's photographic traditions, and I leapt at the chance to do it. I wanted to learn more about South Africa, and this was the perfect opportunity to dig a little deeper and explore the country through the eyes of its pre-eminent photographers.I spent three months researching the different photographers I would meet on my trip, their own stories and the disciplines they had mastered. While I was intrigued by photographers such as David Goldblatt and Alf Kumalo, it was Greg Marinovich from the Bang Bang Club (a group of photographers active within the townships during the Apartheid period) who I really felt like I struck up a friendship with. He is an incredible person, curious about everything, and fearless.I spent a day with Greg photographing a ritual cleansing in the Klipspruit Stream. The river runs through the Soweto township, and every January, to mark the beginning of the new year, members of the African Zionist Church congregate there to celebrate. Hundreds of people participated throughout the day, and the spirituality was palpable, even when standing at a distance on the banks of the river and observing.Greg was an inspiration – he got straight into the river and snorkelled to get underwater 写真は、エネルギーと精神異常、キリスト教の儀式ランキンの展覧会と本からヨハネスブルグのソウェトのtownshipImagesで儀式をクレンジングに流され、RANKINJOZISouthアフリカは信じられないほどの国であり、1つはいつも私を魅了してきました

He discusses the tournament's importance not just to South Africa, but to the continent as a whole.Chris McGreal is the Guardian's former South Africa correspondent. He says it's an extraordinary moment for the country, which 20 years ago was facing international isolation due to its racist apartheid system. (Chris is now reporting from Washington. He says there's muted interest in the World Cup in the US.

- Dubai 'identifies more suspects' in Hamas assassination
Latest suspects bring to 32 the total alleged to have been involved in killing of military commander Mahmoud alMabhouhDubai police have identified up to five more suspects in the alleged assassination of a senior Hamas official by Israeli secret agents, it was reported today.Abu Dhabi's National newspaper said at least one more false passport had been used by the hit squad in the killing of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh. The new suspects make a total of 32 who are alleged to have been involved in the operation, travelling on 13 British, as well as assorted Australian, Irish, French and German passports.The Dubai police chief, Lieutenant General Dahi Khalfan Tamim, declined to comment on the report but he has blamed the assassination of the Hamas military leader in his hotel room on the Mossad, Israel's secret service.Britain's Serious Organised Crime Agency concluded that a state intelligence agency was behind the passport theft and the Foreign Office then ordered the expulsion of a Mossad officer from the Israeli embassy in London. The UK has demanded a formal guarantee that its passports will not be abused in future.South African security officials confirmed yesterday that two of the suspected Mossad agents using false UK passports passed through Johannesburg's OR Tambo airport before and after the killing on 19 January. Israeli sources have described Mabhouh as the man in charge of smuggling Iranian-supplied rockets into the Gaza Strip.The Wall Street Journal has reported that one of the suspects in the Dubai investigation could be Israeli Zev Barkan, wanted in New Zealand since 2004 for passport fraud. Barkan has been sought for alleged involvement in a case in which two other Israelis were sentenced to six months' jail for attempting to fraudulently obtain a New Zealand passp 最新の容疑者は32軍司令官マフムードのalMabhouhDubai警察の殺害に関与されているの上級ハマスの指導者の疑惑事件をさらに5人の容疑者には、イスラエルの秘密諜報員によって識別して合計を主張させる、それがtoday.Abuアブダビのナショナル新聞を報告された少なくとも1つ以上偽造パスポートは、マフムードアルMabhouhの殺害にヒットチームによって使用されていたと述べた
