KUALA LUMPUR, December 3 (Xinhua) — The search for Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 will resume on December 30, the Malaysian Transport Ministry announced on Wednesday.

Ocean Infinity will resume its seabed search operations, which will last 55 days, the agency said in a statement.

“The search will be conducted in the target area where the likelihood of finding the aircraft is assessed as the highest, in accordance with the service agreement that the Malaysian government and Ocean Infinity entered into on March 25, 2025,” the Ministry of Transport noted.

The Malaysian government remains committed to bringing this case to an end for the sake of the missing persons' families, the department stressed.

The disappearance of flight MH370 was a tragic incident that occurred on March 8, 2014. The Boeing 777, en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, went missing. There were 239 passengers and crew on board.

URUMQI, Dec. 3 (Xinhua) — The number of China-Europe and China-Central Asia train departures through the Horgos railway port in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region since the beginning of 2025 has exceeded 9,000.

This figure was reached after the departure on Tuesday of the China-Europe freight train from the Khorgos checkpoint to the Polish station of Malaszewicze, loaded with clothing, toys, electromechanical products, auto parts, and other goods.

On November 23, the number of China-Europe/Central Asia trains passing through the Khorgos railway checkpoint since the beginning of 2025 reached 8,742 units. This brings the total number of departures of such trains this year to the figure for the whole of 2024, 38 days earlier.

As a reminder, in May of this year, reform measures were launched at the Khorgos checkpoint aimed at introducing a smart railway checkpoint and speeding up customs clearance. As a result, the time it takes for imported goods to pass through the checkpoint was reduced from 2-3 days to less than 16 hours.

Currently, trains operate through the Khorgos railway checkpoint on 90 routes, covering 46 cities and regions in 18 countries. More than 50,000 China-Europe and China-Central Asia freight trains have passed through this border crossing.

Moscow, December 3 (Xinhua) — The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) project is a shining example of successful international cooperation that accelerates the development of science and technology, Anatoly Krasilnikov, director of the ITER Project Center (an organization of the Rosatom state corporation), told Xinhua on Tuesday.

"ITER is a wonderful example of how cooperation drives science and technology. When we started ITER, we had certain figures for the critical current density that could flow through ITER's superconducting wires. As the project progressed, this figure increased significantly. Through information exchange and optimization, through joint efforts and ideas, we reached a fundamentally new level of parameters for the current-carrying capacity of the superconductors we were developing," said A. Krasilnikov.

He praised the achievements of Chinese scientists, who managed to continuously confine high-temperature plasma in China's EAST tokamak for 1,066 seconds. "We managed to achieve such a long discharge duration at a very high electron temperature. This is a very significant achievement by Chinese scientists," said A. Krasilnikov.

According to him, the project for a new Chinese superconducting tokamak – a facility for magnetic plasma confinement – which is being built in the city of Hefei, “in two years will be the largest thermonuclear experiment in the world,” and the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) “will become a world center for thermonuclear research.”

The Director of the ITER Project Center noted that collaboration between Russian and Chinese scientists in the field of thermonuclear fusion is developing very fruitfully. The Institute of Plasma Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, located in Hefei, has already signed several bilateral cooperation agreements with leading Russian research centers, and he hopes that agreements will soon be signed between the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the state corporation Rosatom. –0–

RAMALLAH, Dec. 3 (Xinhua) — Israeli forces killed two Palestinians in separate incidents in the West Bank on Tuesday, Palestinian officials said, while the Israeli military said it was responding to a car crash and a stabbing that left a total of three soldiers lightly wounded.

The Palestinian Health Ministry reported that 17-year-old Muhannad Tariq Mohammad Al-Zghir was shot dead in Hebron, and his body was recovered by Israeli forces. Palestinian security officials said the shooting occurred when Israeli forces closed the northern checkpoints during a raid after an Israeli soldier was shot down at a nearby military checkpoint.

The Israeli military said one of its soldiers was lightly wounded in a car crash near Hebron and the driver was killed when troops tried to arrest him.

In a separate incident near the village of Umm Safa, north of Ramallah, the Palestinian Ministry of Health reported that Israeli forces shot and killed 18-year-old Mohammed Ruslan Mahmoud Asmar after a knife attack. Palestinian officials said his body was also seized and that Red Crescent medics were prevented from reaching it.

Palestinian sources reported that troops closed all northern entrances to Ramallah, restricting movement in the area. The Israeli military reported that two soldiers were slightly wounded in a knife attack near the settlement of Ateret after the attacker pulled a knife during interrogation. Ateret is an Israeli communal settlement in the West Bank, built on land confiscated from several Palestinian villages, including Umm Safa.

Separately, Tubas Governor Ahmad Al-Asaad stated that Israeli forces were continuing a large-scale operation in Tubas and the nearby city of Aqaba, leaving the area in a state of "complete lockdown" for a second day. He said dozens of homes had been raided, some of which had been converted into military positions, and described the situation as tense.

Washington, Dec. 2 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump said at a White House cabinet meeting on Tuesday that his administration will launch ground strikes against drug traffickers in the Caribbean "very soon."

"We're going to start carrying out these strikes on land. It's much easier, and we know the routes they're using," Trump said at the meeting. "We're going to begin [the operation] very soon," he added.

In his Thanksgiving Day address to the U.S. military on Thursday evening, President Trump thanked the Air Force's 7th Bomb Wing for its work "deterring Venezuelan drug traffickers," declaring that "about 85 percent of them have been stopped by sea… and we're going to start stopping them on land."

“Besides, it’s easier on land, and it all starts very soon,” said D. Trump from his estate in Mar-a-Lago.

Since September 2, the Pentagon has struck at least 21 ships suspected of carrying drugs in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific, killing at least 83 people on board.

In recent months, Washington has deployed about a dozen warships, including the large aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford, and approximately 15,000 troops to the Caribbean Sea, which borders a significant portion of Venezuela's coastline. Such a large-scale US military presence in the region has not been seen in at least 30 years.

Critics, including several lawmakers at the U.S. Capitol, have for months questioned whether the war on drugs is truly the U.S.'s sole motivation, as well as the legality of U.S. military strikes in the Caribbean.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro denies any involvement in drug trafficking and accuses the United States of "fabricating" a pretext to force regime change in his country. –0–
