DAMASCUS, July 11 (Xinhua) — Some 1,900 Syrian families have been directly affected and thousands more are at risk as wildfires continue to rage in northwestern Syria's Latakia province for the eighth day in a row, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said on Wednesday.

The forest fires, which have been burning since July 2, have engulfed more than 40 sites, burning vast tracts of pine forest, farmland and the outskirts of villages, the department said in a report.

The wildfires have led to significant displacement of people and increased humanitarian needs, particularly for shelter, water and other basic services.

OCHA reported that areas where returning refugees had settled were the hardest hit, with a marked reduction in returnees following the bushfires.

Syria launched a rapid response program on Wednesday in cooperation with the World Food Program to help those affected by forest fires in Latakia, state news agency SANA reported, citing agriculture minister Amjad Badr.

According to him, the total area of forest fires is estimated at about 15 thousand hectares. The victims will be provided with the necessary support, such as agricultural supplies and infrastructure services. –0–

CAIRO, July 11 (Xinhua) — A new fire broke out at a telecommunications company building in the Ramses district of central Cairo on Thursday evening, just days after a previous one killed four people and injured 27, Egyptian media reported.

BEIJING, July 11 (Xinhua) — Mutual learning among civilizations serves as the foundation for global progress and human prosperity, Giorgi Gabunia, chairman of the Culture Committee of the Georgian Parliament, said in an exclusive interview with Xinhua on the sidelines of the ministerial meeting of the Global Dialogue of Civilizations.

He noted that the Global Dialogue of Civilizations is an important platform for promoting intercultural exchange and cooperation.

According to him, cultural exchange is vital for the development of dialogue between countries, reflecting their unique identity and celebrating the diversity of their development. “We must actively strengthen these ties to promote mutual understanding and cooperation,” G. Gabunia emphasized.

China, with its ancient civilization, rich culture and traditions, has achieved remarkable achievements in science, economy, industry and technology, Gabunia said, adding that its successes and positive initiatives open up valuable opportunities not only for China but also for countries around the world.

China's experience and achievements in various fields should be widely shared, especially among developing countries, to promote global cooperation and development, the official noted.

Commenting on the fact that some countries are currently focusing on the theory of clash of civilizations, G. Gabunia said that under such circumstances, the Global Civilization Initiative put forward by Chinese President Xi Jinping in 2023 is a timely and meaningful attempt to promote human progress through developing mutual learning and cooperation among countries.

The Ministerial Meeting of the Global Dialogue of Civilizations on “Preserving the Diversity of Human Civilizations for World Peace and Development” is being held in Beijing from July 10 to 11. More than 600 guests from about 140 countries and regions attended the event. –0–

BEIJING, July 11 (Xinhua) — The International Symposium on the History and Modernity of the South China Sea was held in Beijing on Thursday.

Participants held in-depth discussions on topics such as the international order formed after World War II, China's sovereignty over the South China Sea islands and nearby maritime areas, etc.

Wu Shitsun, chairman of the Huayang Center for Maritime Cooperation and Ocean Governance, said China's sovereignty over the islands in the South China Sea and their adjacent waters has solid historical and legal foundations, as China has governed the region since ancient times and in accordance with the international order formed after World War II.

"China's defense of its sovereignty over islands in the South China Sea is about upholding international order, not undermining international rules," he told the symposium.

Referring to the illegal arbitration award in the South China Sea in July 2016, he stressed that China and ASEAN should step up consultations on the Code of Conduct in the South China Sea and jointly safeguard peace and stability in the region.

Rommel Banlaoi, president of the Philippine Society for International Security Studies, said the arbitration ruling had damaged Philippine-Chinese relations and complicated the geopolitical situation in the South China Sea.

The symposium brought together more than 150 experts, scholars and representatives of organizations from more than 10 countries and regions around the world, including China, Indonesia, the Philippines, the United Kingdom and Canada. -0-
