Africa 06:02 From the show One of US President Donald Trump's first acts on his return to the White House was to suspend the activities of USAID, the United States Agency for International Development.

Greece to adopt legislation against migrant ‘invasion' from Libya
ATHENS: Greece on Friday was to enforce a three-month freeze on asylum claims from migrants arriving by boat from North Africa, to stem a surge from Libya that the government has called an 'invasion.' Conservative lawmakers, who hold a parliamentary majority, are expected to approve emergency legislation enforcing the temporary ban, allowing authorities to detain asylum seekers in camps for up to 18 months. 'We have made the difficult but absolutely necessary decision to temporarily suspend the examination process of asylum applications for those arriving by sea from North African countries,' Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said in a statement to German tabloid Bild on Friday. 'This decision sends a clear message, leaving no room for misinterpretation, to human trafficking networks: Greece is not an open transit route. The journey is dangerous, the outcome uncertain, and the money paid to smugglers ultimately wasted,' he said. Greece's migration ministry says over 14,000 migrants have reached the country this year, including over 2,000 in recent days from Libya. 'Greece cannot have boats totaling 1,000 people a day,' Migration Minister Thanos Plevris told Skai TV, adding that the country will undertake a 'draconian revision' of how it deals with migrants. Plevris – formerly a member of the far-right LAOS party and now part of Mitsotakis's New Democracy party – has called the recent influx an 'invasion from North Africa.' The move has been criticized by rights groups as a violation of international and EU law, and opposition parties have called it unconstitutional. Noting an 'exceptional' situation, European Commission migration spokesperson Markus Lammert said on Thursday: 'We are in close contact with the Greek authorities to obtain necessary information on these measures.' Greece took similar steps in 2020 during a migration surge at its land border with Turkiye. To manage the influx, the government could reopen camps built after the 2015 migration crisis, government spokesman Pavlos Marinakis said this week. Mitsotakis also told parliament that it would build up to two additional camps on the island of Crete.

A late freeze is likely in parts of western and northern New Mexico tonight. Warmer and drier weather returns starting Tuesday, with the warmest weather so far of the year by the end of the week. Showers and storms moved through western, central, and northern New Mexico Monday bringing rain and gusty winds. Temperatures were cooler across New Mexico today as well thanks to the cloud cover and rain, but also due to a cold front that moved in Sunday night. The rain and thunderstorms have ended now tonight as the skies are clearing out. It's been a windy day across the state, but those winds are settling down tonight. A late season freeze is likely for locations in western and northern New Mexico Tuesday morning. Freeze Warnings are in effect for these areas.

Three ingredients, no churning: perfect ice cream
Step Scrape into a container. I like to freeze it in something that will look nice when you come to serve. Freeze for at least 8 hours. And when you come to eat, take it out of the freezer about 20 minutes before serving to soften up.
