Delta flight races into path of Hurricane Irma before executing quick escape from Puerto RicoA Delta flight raced against Hurricane Irma on Wednesday, landing in Puerto Rico and taking off again within an hour just as the category 5 storm was bearing down on the island. FlightAware data showed that the Boeing 737 left New York at 8.12am and arrived in San Juan at 12.01pm, just as Irma was set to make landfall. Less than an hour later, it took off  from Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in decidedly blustery conditions. Pictures posted on social media showed the flight heading straight into the path of the hurricane, which had already left a trail of devastation across the Caribbean. "Where others have turned back, Delta #DL431 presses on," tweeted the Flightradar24, which tracks air traffic in real time. Jason Rabinowitz, an aviation enthusiast,  shared photos of the flight data in real time as the fight landed, prepared for its next flight and took off again. Takeoff! An absolutely amazing job here by @Delta forecasters, dispatchers, flight and ground crews.

Dutch soldiers deployed against St Martin looting in wake of Hurricane IrmaDutch troops were fanning out across part of the hurricane-hit island of St Martin on Friday as shots were heard and officials admitted there had been some looting. "The situation is serious," Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said when asked about looting, adding authorities were being hampered in their efforts to deal with it as communications were cut off when Hurricane Irma roared through on Wednesday. Shots had been heard on the island, a top marine official revealed, but said it was unclear where they had come from. Hurricane Irma makes landfall in the Caribbean, in pictures "Shots have been fired, but not in a structured fashion," Major General Richard Oppelaar, the commander of the Marine Corps, told reporters in The Hague. "I can't deny there are some weapons around," he said, adding in some areas the situation remained "grim" and the atmosphere was tense. "The supermarkets are empty, so people are out searching," Oppelaar said, adding in principle security was under control with soldiers trying "to be as visible" as possible.

The badly damaged airport and port have now "been opened for military purposes," Rutte told reporters, adding "we are doing everything possible to get aid to the area." He said food, water and security were the priorities on the island, known in Dutch as Sint Maarten. "There are people on the streets armed with revolvers and machetes," one witness told the Dutch daily newspaper AD on Friday. Hurricane Irma | Key articles "The situation is very serious. No one is in charge." "We will not abandon Sint Maarten," Rutte vowed, adding officials were also sending medicines, tents, tarpaulins, building materials and hygiene kits as fast as possible to the Caribbean.

After deal with Democrats, Donald Trump laments Republican 'death wish'

Posted: 08 Sep 2017 10:31 AM PDT

After deal with Democrats, Donald Trump laments Republican 'death wish'President Donald Trump has intensified his attacks on his own party, describing the Republicans as having a "death wish" with their refusal to repeal a Senate filibuster rule, and accusing them of failing to get anything done. Mr Trump urged his colleagues to press ahead on tax reform, and chided those within the party who were angered by his siding with the Democrats earlier this week. "Republicans, sorry, but I've been hearing about Repeal & Replace for 7 years, didn't happen!" he said, mocking their efforts to push through healthcare reform, as a means of explaining his own deal on Wednesday. Republicans, sorry, but I've been hearing about Repeal & Replace for 7 years, didn't happen! Even worse, the Senate Filibuster Rule will....— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 8, 2017 ...never allow the Republicans to pass even great legislation. 8 Dems control - will rarely get 60 (vs. 51) votes. It is a Repub Death Wish!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 8, 2017 Republicans must start the Tax Reform/Tax Cut legislation ASAP. Don't wait until the end of September. Needed now more than ever. Hurry!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 8, 2017 Mr Trump on Friday night signed a bill to provide $15 billion (£11.4bn) in disaster aid for victims of Hurricane Harvey and, at the same time, raise the debt ceiling - after a surprise move to side with the Democrats. The president signed the measure "providing much needed support for storm survivors," said Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the White House spokesman.  The House on Friday passed the bill 316-90, a day after the Senate passed it 80-17. The bill was agreed after Mr Trump met on Wednesday with the Republican and Democrat leaders of the House and Senate, and surprised many by siding with the Democrats. Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell, the Republican leaders, argued for a long-term approach to the debt ceiling, which the US was due to hit on with the new fiscal year beginning October 1. Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, however, argued successfully that the debt ceiling should be increased for three months, until December 8.   Nancy Pelosi Looking for a quick fix, Mr Trump agreed with them – reportedly cutting off his own treasury secretary, Steve Mnuchin, as he explained his arguments for a longer-term increase. That effectively postpones until December a potentially damaging fight over fiscal matters, including whether to fund construction of Mr Trump's border wall – something which concerns Republicans looking to the mid term elections in 2018. "We had a very good meeting with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer," said Mr Trump on Wednesday aboard Air Force One, as he travelled to North Dakota. "We agreed to a three-month extension on debt ceiling, which they consider to be sacred — very important — always we'll agree on debt ceiling automatically because of the importance of it." Mr Schumer, the Democrat leader in the Senate, was the one who claimed victory, saying: "The nation can breathe a sigh of relief." His and Ms Pelosi's apparent outmanoeuvring of the Republicans sparked calls on Friday for Mr Ryan, the Republican leader of the House, to resign. Hours before the Oval Office meeting, Mr Ryan called Democrat demands for the debt ceiling, linked to the hurricane relief package, "disgraceful". "I think that's ridiculous and disgraceful that they want to play politics with the debt ceiling at this moment when we have fellow citizens in need," he said. But Mr Trump disagreed. "We essentially came to a deal, and I think the deal will be very good," he said. "We had a very, very cordial and professional meeting." Congressional Republicans were shocked by the president undermining their own leaders, and siding with the Democrats. "It's like the Washington that Trump campaigned against," said Joe Barton, a Republican congressman for Texas. "So, as much as I want to help Texas, I can't vote for something that just is a blank cheque on the debt." Mr Trump then followed up his unusual deal with the Democrats with a tweet urging the so-called "Dreamers" – young illegal immigrants whose status he has threatened – not to be afraid. "For all of those (DACA) that are concerned about your status during the 6 month period, you have nothing to worry about — No action!" the president tweeted from his personal account. Ms Pelosi later said she had told him to tweet the reassuring message. "This is what I asked the president to do and, boom boom boom, the tweet appeared," she said. "Haven't seen anything like it before," said John McCain the Republican senator for Arizona, who has served in the Senate for three decades. "I have no way of divining his motives. I'm a pretty intelligent guy, but I don't understand this."

Germany disputes size of Russian wargames, predicts 100,000 troops

Germany disputes size of Russian wargames, predicts 100,000 troopsBy Robin Emmott TALLINN (Reuters) - Germany said on Thursday that Russia was planning to send more than 100,000 troops to war games on NATO's eastern flank this month, disputing Moscow's version that only 13,000 Russian and Belarussian servicemen would participate. The Sept. 14-20 exercises known as Zapad, or "West" in Belarus, the Baltic Sea, western Russia and the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad, are stirring unease in NATO despite Moscow's assurances troops would rehearse a purely defensive scenario. "It is undisputed that we are seeing a demonstration of capabilities and power of the Russians," German Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen told reporters at an EU defense ministers' meeting in Tallinn.
