Moscow, November 7 (Xinhua) — In the Moscow region, Russian Interior Ministry and Federal Security Service (FSB) officers foiled a plot to commit a terrorist attack. This was announced on Friday by Interior Ministry spokesperson Irina Volk.

He is suspected of preparing a terrorist attack," TASS quoted her as saying.

According to I. Volk, the perpetrator initiated a conversation with an unknown individual on a messaging app and expressed his willingness to assist Ukrainian intelligence agencies.

The young man was supposed to deliver it to Izmailovsky Park in Moscow," the agency representative explained.

It was noted that the detainee has been arrested, and a criminal case has been opened. "Police officers are currently conducting activities aimed at identifying and locating the detainee's accomplices," I. Volk added. –0–

CAPE TOWN, November 7 (Xinhua) — South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has called on world leaders, policymakers and civil society to unite to protect and advance gains in women's empowerment and gender equality.

In his opening remarks at the International Women's Forum (IWF) Global Conference in Cape Town on Thursday, Ramaphosa said the event "celebrates women's leadership and promotes women's empowerment and equality."

Linking the conference to global challenges, Ramaphosa highlighted the first-ever G20 report on global inequality, published earlier this week. It notes that in more unequal societies, fewer women pursue higher education or serve in legislatures, and the gender pay gap is wider. According to the South African leader, these findings underscore the need to place women's empowerment at the center of the global agenda.

China has launched a project to divert water to quench thirst in the megacity.

CHENGDU, Nov. 7 (Xinhua) — China on Friday launched a major project to divert water from the Daduhe River to the Dujiangyan Irrigation System, bringing additional water to the water-starved city of Chengdu, capital of southwest China's Sichuan Province.

For 2,000 years, the Dujiangyan Irrigation System, built in the 3rd century BC and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has diverted part of the waters of the Minjiang River, a tributary of the Yangtze River, into the vast Chengdu Plain, making it the most productive region in China. However, as western China accelerates its socioeconomic development, water shortages in the Chengdu Plain are becoming increasingly pressing.

The project is expected to be completed over an eight-year period. According to the plan, water pumped from the Daduhe River, after overcoming natural elevation changes through over 260 kilometers of tunnels and pipelines, will be delivered to the Chengdu Plain. This additional water, along with some from the Minjiang River, will become the two main water sources for the Chengdu Plain.

Water resources in Sichuan Province are unevenly distributed. The western part of Sichuan Province has abundant water, while the eastern part suffers from severe water shortages. By 2030, the population of the lowland economic zone is projected to exceed 46 million, leading to a critical water shortage by 2035.

According to the plan, water supply from the Daduhe River to the irrigated areas of the Dujiangyan system will reach 1.39 billion cubic meters by 2040, and by 2050, the project's water inflow into the Dujiangyan system will reach 1.52 billion cubic meters. By then, the water supply network will cover 43 county-level administrative units in Sichuan Province. 34.13 million local residents will gain access to additional water resources.

Li Zhiyuan, Director of the Second Engineering and Design Branch of Sichuan Water Development Investigation, Design and Research Co., Ltd., noted that after the new project is put into operation, the water supply level for industrial and domestic needs in the Chengdu Plain will rise from the current 90 percent to 97 percent, and the level of agricultural irrigation will reach 80 percent. The project will perform functions such as urban and rural water supply, irrigation, ecological replenishment of water reserves, and emergency water supply.

URUMQI, Nov. 7 (Xinhua) — The 12th China-Central Asia Cooperation Forum was held in Urumqi, capital of northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, on Thursday.

UN, November 7 (Xinhua) — China's Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations Geng Shuang on Thursday refuted baseless U.S. accusations against China's climate policy.

At a UN Security Council meeting on climate and security, the US envoy delivered a veiled attack on China, accusing it of gaining unfair economic advantages by undermining its economic competitors and calling on UN member states to follow the US example.

In response to the accusations, Geng Shuang said China, a country with a population of 1.4 billion and the world's second-largest gross domestic product, maintains an annual contribution to global economic growth of around 30 percent, while its per capita emissions are not among the highest in the world.

He added that China is recognized by the international community as one of the countries with the strongest will, the most decisive actions, and the most outstanding results in fulfilling its emission reduction commitments. "It is certainly a country that is actively participating in the global fight against climate change," Geng Shuang stated.
