  1. VAE: Stromversorgung von AKW wiederhergestellt

    Nach dem Drohnenangriff auf das #Atomkraftwerk #Baraka in den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten (#VAE) ist die externe Stromversorgung von Block 3 wiederhergestellt. Das teilte die Internationale Atomenergiebehörde (#IAEA) gestern unter Berufung auf Angaben der Regierung mit.

    Bei dem Angriff am Vortag brach ein Feuer an einem Stromgenerator außerhalb der inneren Sicherheitszone aus. Den Behörden zufolge sei die Sicherheit der Anlage nicht beeinträchtigt gewesen, und es sei kein radioaktives Material ausgetreten.

  2. IAEA verurteilt Angriff bei AKW in Abu Dhabi

    Bei einem Drohnenangriff in den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten ist am Sonntag beim #Atomkraftwerk #Baraka in #AbuDhabi ein Feuer ausgebrochen. Die Internationale Atomenergiebehörde (#IAEA) bestätigte später Angaben, wonach die Strahlungswerte normal seien – verurteilte den Vorfall aber scharf.

  3. Guten Morgen - Tässle Kaffee ☕️?

    Israel & die USA einerseits und der Iran andererseits eskalieren angesichts des Golfkrieges um fossile & atomare Gewaltenergien wieder ihre Drohungen. Nun traf eine mutmaßlich iranische Drohne das einzige Atomkraftwerk der Golfregion in Abu Dhabi, VAE, Baraka („Segen“). Es liefert ein Viertel des Stroms für die Emirate.

    Erneut bestätigt sich damit eine Solarpunk - Kritik: Zentralisierte & konkret atomare Energiestrukturen sind militärisch besonders verwundbar.

    „Nach einem Drohnenangriff auf die Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate ist am Atomkraftwerk Baraka in Abu Dhabi ein Feuer ausgebrochen. Der Brand sei in einem externen Stromgenerator der Anlage ausgebrochen, teilte das Medienbüro von Abu Dhabi mit. Berichte über Verletzte gebe es nicht. Auch ein Anstieg der Radioaktivität über die Sicherheitsgrenzwerte sei nicht festgestellt worden.“ #Iran #Israel #USA #VAE #Irankrieg #Fossilismus #Golfkrieg #Drohnen #Atomkraftwerk #AKW #AbuDhabi #Baraka #Solarpunk zeit.de/politik/ausland/2026-0

  8. On the Friday before Mother’s Day, #LaMonica #McIver,
    a first-term Democratic congresswoman from New Jersey,
    spent the morning handing out roses in the maternity ward of a hospital in Newark.

    Her next stop, a visit to #Delaney #Hall, a federal immigration jail in her district,
    promised to be a more sombre affair, but she was “on a high note,” McIver told me.

    “We thought it would be a smooth day.”
    Now she faces seventeen years in prison.

    A federal grand jury has indicted Rep. LaMonica McIver, D-N.J., on three criminal counts, after the U.S. Attorney's Office in New Jersey alleged that she broke the law when Congress members' visit to an immigration detention facility ended in a physical altercation.

    "McIver forcibly impeded and interfered with federal officers
    as they attempted to arrest" Newark Mayor #Ras #Baraka
    outside the Delaney Hall Federal Immigration Facility in Newark, N.J.,
    on May 9,
    the U.S. Attorney's Office said.

    The indictment lists three counts of
    "assaulting, resisting, impeding and interfering"
    with federal officers,
    with a potential prison sentence if McIver is convicted.

    The indictment was announced by interim U.S. Attorney for New Jersey #Alina #Habba, Trump's former personal attorney
    who briefly served as counselor to the president before being named to the federal prosecutor post in March.

  13. It's unsurprising the Ras #Baraka has endorsed #Sherrill against Ciattarelli in the #NewJersey governor's race—he was quite warm and civil to her during the campaign, and Ciattarelli has said heinous things about Baraka.

    What gets me is why hasn't #Fulop done the same? Would he prefer Ciattarelli? Or does he just not care because he's exiting politics, and perhaps the state?

  14. I've voted by mail in the NJ Democratic Primary. I chose Ras Baraka for Governor. He espouses the progressive values that I do, and he has already put himself on the line in the battle against Trump.

    Sean Spiller is my 2nd choice.

  15. US Federal Judge slammed the Department of Justice officials involved in charging #Newark, NJ mayor Ras #Baraka, charges were later resolved. Trump tool Alina Habbard has again demonstrated her incompetence. newrepublic.com/post/195588/ju

  16. A federal judge on Wednesday
    👉scolded federal prosecutors and
    👉announced he will dismiss trespassing charges against Newark Mayor #Ras #Baraka related to a standoff at a migrant detention center. 
    Interim U.S. Attorney for New Jersey Alina Habba announced earlier this week she would drop charges against Baraka
    (but at the same time announced new charges against Rep. LaMonica McIver stemming from a scuffle during Baraka’s arrest).
    🔥Federal magistrate judge #Andre #Espinosa reprimanded the federal prosecutors for more than five minutes, calling the retraction of the charges “embarrassing.”
    “The hasty arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, followed swiftly by the dismissal of these trespassing charges a mere 13 days later, suggests a worrying misstep by your office,” Espinosa said.
    ⭐️ “An arrest, particularly of a public figure, is not a preliminary investigative tool.
    It is a severe action, carrying significant reputational and personal consequences, and it should only be undertaken after a thorough, dispassionate evaluation of credible evidence.”
    The judge directed his comments to Assistant U.S. Attorney Stephen Demanovich
    — the judge said Demanovich had acted appropriately throughout the case, but as the representative of the U.S. Attorney’s Office, he was responsible for hearing the message.
    ⚠️Judge Espinosa said he found out about the dismissal through reports in the media, rather than from prosecutors themselves.
    The judge said that while there will be no trial, he believed Baraka deserved the chance to defend himself against the accusations.
    💥“If this matter had proceeded to trial, we feel confident that Mayor Baraka would be vindicated,” said Rahul Agarwal, one of Baraka’s attorneys.
    “We have believed from the outset that these charges did not and would not survive scrutiny.”
    Baraka had visited Delaney Hall,
    a 1,100-bed facility in the East Ward of Newark that began housing immigrant detainees at the beginning of this month,
    with three members of Congress for an oversight visit.
    Baraka has argued that Delaney Hall is operating illegally;
    the city of Newark is suing GEO Group, the private-prison company that operates Delaney Hall, alleging the company hasn’t obtained the necessary certificates to open the building. That lawsuit is ongoing.

  17. Lawyers for #Newark, #NewJersey Mayor #RasBaraka said on Thurs they would file motions to dismiss a charge that he had trespassed at a privately run federal #immigration detention center there last week.

    #Baraka, who is running for the Democratic nomination for governor in a crowded field, faces a misdemeanor charge of trespassing at #DelaneyHall, an offense that carries a maximum penalty of 30 days in #jail.

  18. Speaking out after his arrest on Tuesday, Newark mayor
    Ras #Baraka said his city would continue its fight in court against the company that runs an immigration detention facility in New Jersey.
    “I know there are some protests that other people are planning, and if I feel obligated to be there, I will,”
    Baraka told the Rev Al Sharpton on MSNBC Saturday afternoon.
    “This doesn’t stop the city’s contention with the Geo Group, and we’re going to continue in court with them.”

    Baraka was arrested Tuesday morning after joining three members of Congress at a protest and press conference outside a new Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) detention facility located in Newark known as Delaney Hall.

    He was arrested by homeland security agents and taken into custody at a separate facility in Newark.
    The mayor was released about five hours later and charged with trespassing.

    Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin told CNN Saturday morning that
    “there will be more arrests coming” after the protest at the facility,
    saying that the arrests of the three Democratic members of Congress who were there
    – Bonnie Watson #Coleman, Rob #Menendez and LaMonica #McIver
    – are “on the table”.

    Newark sued Geo Group after the company won a 15-year $1bn contract with Ice to run Delaney Hall -- saying that the company was renovating the facility without proper permits and that city inspectors had been barred from entering the center.

  19. “‘I’m not on their property. They can’t come out on the street and arrest me,’ #Baraka replied. Minutes later several #ICE agents, some wearing face coverings, surrounded him and others on the public side. As protesters cried out, ‘Shame,’ Baraka was dragged back through the security gate in handcuffs.”

  21. « #Baraka has been protesting for several days at the city, which #Newark officials allege hasn’t yet been fully inspected, including for compliance with fire safety laws. City officials say fire and code enforcement officials have been blocked from entering the facility, where operator #GEOgroup began holding #detainees on May 1 as part of a $1.2 billion, 15-year contract with #ICE

  22. Rep #RobMenendez said #ICE agents learned Mayor #Baraka was outside the facility. Menendez said the agents “were on the phone with somebody” who told them to let the Mayor in, then escort him back out beyond the facility gates. The agents did exactly that. Once beyond the gates they arrested him.

    That is insane.

  37. "Baraka" is a Sufi word meaning "a blessing, or the breath, or the essence of life, from which the evolutionary process unfolds." In Islam generally, it is "a quality or force emanating originally from Allah but capable of transmission to objects or to human beings." In Judaism, it is a ceremonial blessing. In Swahili, it means "blessing." In French slang, it means "good luck."
