GWANGJU — The Kia Tigers rallied past the Samsung Lions 4-2 to stave off elimination in the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) postseason Friday, taking advantage of subpar defense by their opponents to force a deciding game on the weekend. The Tigers turned a 2-1 deficit into a 4-2 lead in the bottom of the seventh inning in Game 4 before a sellout crowd of 18,900 at Gwangju-Kia Champions Field in the southwestern city of Gwangju. They scored all three runs in the inning after a fielding error by third baseman Kim Young-woong, with Han Jun-su delivering the tie-breaking hit as part of his two-RBI night. Closer Jeon Sang-hyun got the final six outs for the save. This best-of-five series is now tied at 2-2, and the final game is scheduled for 2 p.m. at Daegu Samsung Lions Park in the southeastern city of Daegu. The winner of that do-or-die game will advance to the Korean Series against the KT Wiz, starting Tuesday. The two starting pitchers, James Naile for the Tigers and Chris Paddack for the Lions, were going on three days' rest after they had both pitched in Monday's Game 1. After getti

INCHEON — South Korea and the United States have complementary strengths and are capable of driving "great" progress in the nuclear sector amid a heated global race to develop next-generation reactors, a U.S. State Department official said. Christopher Klein, the deputy assistant secretary for nuclear nonproliferation and commercial competitiveness at the U.S. Department of State, made the remarks in an exclusive interview with Yonhap News Agency on Wednesday, saying the global landscape has transitioned into a "nuclear renaissance." "We are countries that both have a lot of experience and expertise, and when we work together ... we can achieve great things," Klein said during the interview on the margins of the International Ministerial Conference on Nuclear Power held in Incheon, west of Seoul. The three-day event, organized by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), was held in South Korea for the first time this year. Klein's comment comes amid growing attention to Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) — a new class of nuclear power plants -- as countries seek reliable, carbon-fre

A special counsel team on Friday asked the National Election Commission (NEC) to keep intact the 420 ballot boxes that drew no objections during its inspection at a Seoul handball arena, saying it may need to examine them again. The boxes had sat in the Olympic Park Handball Gymnasium in southeastern Seoul since the June 3 local elections. Special counsel Lee Tae-han's team carried them out Thursday after reviewing all 2.47 million ballots cast in the southeastern Songpa Ward. The team has been investigating unprecedented ballot shortages on Election Day that turned some voters away before they could cast their votes. The ballots were placed in 433 boxes, 420 of which were taken to an NEC storage facility in the capital area, according to the commission. Under the election law, they will be stored for the duration of the elected officials' terms. The team took the remaining 13 boxes and will inspect their content further based on objections raised by on-site observers. Some of them will be sent to the National Forensic Service for closer examination. The gymnasium served as a vote countin

Un carroarmato di cartone – con dei soldi finti e il volto di Giorgia Meloni – è stato dato alle fiamme dai manifestanti del corteo di Napoli contro il carovita e la politica del riarmo. “È un gesto simbolico“, dicono i promotori schierati proprio davanti all’ingresso dell’autostrada in via Reggia di Portici. Di fronte a loro le forze dell’ordine in assetto anti sommossa per impedire l’accesso all’autostrada. Alle spalle degli agenti anche quattro camionette blindate di polizia e carabinieri. Un gruppo di manifestanti sta continuando a percorrere via Reggia di Portici, andando in direzione dell’uscita dell’autostrada.
O Chega ultrapassou a AD na intenção direta de voto e empurrou os sociais-democratas para terceiro lugar, um ponto atrás. A fotografia dá corpo ao cenário que, na véspera, tinha levado o presidente do PS a admitir em público o que o partido vinha a evitar: um bloco central, se o Chega ganhar eleições. Na sondagem do ICS/ISCTE para a SIC e o Expresso, divulgada quinta-feira, os socialistas lideram a intenção direta de voto com 23%, seguidos do Chega com 21% e da AD com 20%. Face a maio, o partido de André Ventura sobe quatro pontos e troca de
Los comercios del centro de Valencia comienzan este viernes a proteger sus escaparates con tablones de madera ante la amenaza de posibles saqueos y disturbios que ha promocionado para la tarde de este sábado el canal 'Blocus Vlc', hechos por los que ya ha sido detenidos cinco jóvenes.
En la calle Colón, trabajadores de Inditex trabajan esta mañana en proteger lo "máximo posible" los cristales y escaparates de las tiendas Lefties y Zara, en principio, aunque no descartan hacer lo mismo en otras marcas como Stradivarius y Pull&Bear.
Trabajadores de otras tiendas como Lush, NYU NYU y Camper, también ubicadas en la calle Colón, han afirmado a EFE que la Policía Nacional acudió ayer a avisarles de la posibilidad de que se produzcan actos vandálicos, con el fin de que valorasen la posibilidad de cerrar mañana por la tarde.
En este sentido, son muchas las tiendas, así como algunas cafeterías del Paseo de Ruzafa, las que han decidido cerrar por precaución, algunas de ellas durante todo el día y otras a partir de las 16:30 horas, mientras que otras permanecerán abiertas, aunque sus empleados cuentan con un protocolo de pautas para poder cerrar si es necesario.
Algunos trabajadores han reconocido que esta situación les genera "miedo y preocupación", a pesar de que la Policía ha detenido a un joven de 18 años y al creador de los canales de comunicación 'Blocus Vlc' en los que instigaba a saquear comercios de la ciudad, un adolescente de 17 años para el que se ha decretado la medida cautelar de internamiento en un centro de menores.
En declaraciones a EFE TV, Daniel Tejada, dueño de unas de las empresas que está ayudando a blindar los comercios, ha asegurado que ha recibido llamadas de varios pequeños comercios, no solo de Inditex, "porque tienen miedo también" y ha avanzado que "van a trabajar hasta que finalicen toda la faena".
"La idea es que no puedan entrar, para que los daños sean los mínimos. No es lo mismo que con un golpe acaben reventando un cristal a que saqueen la tienda entera", ha explicado Tejeda.
Asimismo, la Asociación de Comerciantes del Centro Histórico de Valencia ha instado a la prudencia, coordinación y ha recordado que la seguridad de las personas es "lo primero" ya que "un escaparate se repara y la mercancía se repone; una persona herida, no".
Por eso, en una guía, han recomendado mantener la calma, cerrar la puerta, bajar la persiana, alejarse del escaparate, llamar al 112 y no enfrentarse ni salir a grabar, en caso de que se acerque un grupo de personas.
También han aconsejado, como refuerzo opcional, proteger los escaparates y las puertas con tableros de 18-22 milímetros atornillado sobre el cristal, puntales de obra por dentro, cerrojos al suelo en la persiana o tener vigilancia dentro del local -solo empresas de seguridad autorizadas-.
En caso de haber sido vandalizado, han pedido a los comerciantes que tomen fotografías, denuncien y den parte al seguro, así como informar a la asociación.
