  3. Supertaifun „Sinlaku“ trifft US-Außengebiet mit voller Wucht

    Der #Supertaifun #Sinlaku hat die Nördlichen #Marianen im #Westpazifik mit voller Wucht getroffen und Augenzeugen zufolge schwere Schäden verursacht. Anwohner berichteten von hüfthohem #Hochwasser und schweren Verwüstungen. Ganze Inselteile des Tropenparadieses seien zerstört, berichtete die Online-Zeitung „Pacific Daily News“.

    Der Sturm erreichte nach Angaben des lokalen Wetterdienstes Windgeschwindigkeiten von mehr als 210 Kilometer pro Stunde, als er in der Nacht (Ortszeit) auf die besonders betroffenen Inseln #Saipan und #Tinian traf. Hunderte, möglicherweise Tausende Menschen seien obdachlos, hieß es.

  13. “In the middle of the Pacific ocean, an abandoned US airfield once key to dropping the nuclear bomb on Japan - and nearly lost to history amid encroaching forest - is being revived.
    But as the Americans hack away at the jungle overgrowth at #Tinian island airfield and other old, World War II-era bases across the region, it will not be with Japan on their mind.”

  18. #US to restore airfield from which it nuked #Japan in #WWII.

    The airfield on the island of #Tinian was abandoned after WWII and now, against the backdrop of intensifying confrontation with #China, the US Air Force is returning.

    The bulk of the US Air Force in the Pacific is already located at bases in #Guam and #Okinawa, but that's not enough for the world's most militant power.
