NEWS AROUND THE WORLD
TEGUCIGALPA. HONDURAS
On Honduras' swampy Mosquitia coast, entire villages have made a way of life off the country's massive cocaine transshipment trade. In broad daylight, men, women and children descend on passing go-fast boats to offload bales of cocaine destined for the United States.
Along the Atlantic coast, the wealthy elite have accumulated dozens of ranches, vachts and mansions from the drug trade.
And in San Pedro Sula, local gangs moving drugs north have spawned armies of street-level dealers whose violence has given the rougher neighborhoods of the northern industrial city a homicide rate that is only comparable to Kabul, Afghanistan.
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM
Ships sailing under Britain's flag will be permitted to carry armed guards on some perilous routes to combat the threat from pirates, the prime minister said Sunday.
David Cameron said Britain was reversing its opposition to the use of weapons aboard ships, amid mounting concern about the risks of vessels and crew being seized by pirates — particularly off Somalia's coast.
Cameron's office said the use of weapons on British-flagged ships is banned under firearms laws, but that new rules would be in place within a month.
TEHRAN, IRAN
Iran's parliament is set to summon President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for questioning over an economic scandal and his polices after the required number of lawmakers signed a petition Sunday, the latest salvo in a long battle between the president and his rivals.
Ahmadinejad would be the first president to be hauled before the Iranian parliament, a serious blow to his standing in a the conflict involving the president, lawmakers and Iran's powerful clerics.
At least 73 lawmakers signed the petition to question Ahmadinejad, just above one-quarter of the 290 members required by Iran's constitution to call in a president.
PATTANI, THAILAND
Attackers believed to be Muslim insurgents killed four people and set off a string of homemade bombs Sunday in Thailand's restive south.
Suspected Islamic insurgents have recently been staging coordinated bombings in urban areas of the south, raising the profile of their attacks.
Police Col. Kwandee Chimplee said four suspected insurgents riding two motorcycles shot dead two men and a woman at a grocery store in the city of Narathiwat Sunday morning. Another man was shot dead in neighboring Songkhla province by gunmen on a pickup truck.
