Russian gains in Kursk threaten vital bargaining chip for Ukraine
俄罗斯军队近期在乌克兰边境的库尔斯克地区取得进展，突破了乌克兰的防线。据克里姆林宫控制的媒体发布的图像显示，俄军士兵利用天然气管道等非常规战术渗透到乌克兰防线后方，对乌克兰军队造成了压力。
自去年8月基辅方面对库尔斯克地区发动袭击以来，莫斯科一直在积极反击，并部署了数千名朝鲜士兵。在过去五天里，俄罗斯已经夺回了几十平方公里的土地，并有报道称俄军已进入苏扎镇，该镇是该地区由基辅控制的最大定居点。

TSMC has pitched Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom about joint venture to run Intel foundry: sources
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) has proposed a joint venture to US chip designers like Nvidia, AMD, and Broadcom to operate Intel's factories. TSMC would manage Intel's foundry division, which produces chips tailored to customer needs, but would maintain less than 50% ownership.
This proposal follows a request from the Trump administration for TSMC to help revitalize Intel, a struggling US industrial icon. The plan aims to avoid full foreign ownership of Intel or its foundry division, requiring approval from the US government. Qualcomm has also reportedly been approached by TSMC regarding this potential partnership.

China summons Walmart executives for talks on tariff costs
中国商务部官员周二与沃尔玛举行会谈，讨论有关这家美国零售巨头要求其中国供应商大幅降低价格的传言。据央视社交媒体账号“玉渊谭天”报道，此举可能将美国对中国商品加征的新关税成本转嫁给国内供应商和消费者。
“玉渊谭天”表示，沃尔玛单方面要求中国企业降价可能导致供应链中断，损害两国企业和消费者的利益。“如果沃尔玛坚持这样做，那么接下来会发生什么就不仅仅是谈判了。”中国纺织品进出口商会表示，已收到部分会员企业报告称，美国大型零售商要求中国供应商降价，目前正在核实相关说法。该商会表示，“如果情况属实，我们将采取积极措施维护会员企业的合法权益。”

Yemen’s Houthis say ‘any Israeli vessel’ in nearby waterways again a target
Yemen's Houthi rebels have declared that "any Israeli vessel" traveling through nearby Middle Eastern waters is now a target, citing Israel's continued blockage of aid to the Gaza Strip. This action threatens to disrupt a critical maritime route between Asia and Europe, potentially impacting revenue from the Suez Canal and hindering aid shipments to conflict zones.
The Houthi's warning, issued through their Humanitarian Operations Coordination Centre, follows a four-day ultimatum for Israel to resume aid deliveries. The rebels claim their actions are driven by "religious, humanitarian and moral responsibility" towards Palestinians, aiming to pressure Israel to reopen Gaza's crossings for essential supplies. The declared operational area for this ban includes the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden, Bab el-Mandeb Strait, and the Arabian Sea, raising concerns about potential misidentification of vessels and broader disruptions to maritime traffic.

Anger and relief in Philippines over Rodrigo Duterte’s arrest: ‘my prayers answered’
Supporters of former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte are protesting his arrest across the country's south, despite legal experts suggesting his chances of success at The Hague are slim. The 79-year-old was apprehended under an International Criminal Court warrant related to his controversial anti-drug campaign during his presidency.
Protests erupted in Davao City, a known Duterte stronghold, shortly after his arrest at Manila airport upon returning from Hong Kong. He was subsequently transported to The Hague to face charges of crimes against humanity. His supporters have also taken to social media, urging continued resistance and expressing outrage over his detention, with some claiming the arrest is baseless and calling for unity.

Europe’s Trump dilemma: must it de-risk from both the US and China at once?
Europe is grappling with a growing debate on whether to reduce its reliance on both the United States and China. This discussion is fueled by concerns over the reliability of the transatlantic alliance, particularly in light of the US's actions regarding aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine.
While some believe strained US-Europe relations could strengthen ties with China, the EU is simultaneously pursuing policies to decrease its dependence on Chinese supplies. This raises the complex question of whether Europe needs to strategically de-risk from both of the world's leading economic powers.

As Trump dashes its hopes for tariff relief, Australia rejects retaliation
澳大利亚总理安东尼·阿尔巴尼斯周三表示，澳大利亚不会对美国实施对等关税，此前美国总统唐纳德·特朗普排除了所有国家在钢铁和铝关税方面的豁免或例外。阿尔巴尼斯认为，对美国实施对等关税只会推高澳大利亚消费者的价格，并刺激通货膨胀。
特朗普此前曾表示，鉴于美国与澳大利亚的年度贸易顺差，将“认真考虑”豁免澳大利亚的关税。然而，白宫宣布，此前计划对所有国家进口到美国的所有钢铁和铝产品征收25%的关税将于周三生效。阿尔巴尼斯表示，特朗普政府的这一决定“完全没有道理，违背了两国持久友谊的精神，并且从根本上与我们经济伙伴关系的好处背道而驰”。

Portugal’s government collapses after losing confidence vote
葡萄牙总理路易斯·蒙特内罗的中间偏右少数派政府在周二的信任投票中倒台，该国可能将在三年多一点的时间里迎来第三次提前选举。 此次政府倒台主要由于总理未能消除与其家族公司相关的潜在利益冲突猜测，导致执政根基不稳。
蒙特内罗总理上周主动要求进行信任投票，希望明确其政府是否具备“所有条件”来执行其计划。然而，最大的两个反对党社会党和极右翼政党Chega均投了反对票，这两个政治力量合计拥有议会过半数的议员。总统预计将在周三与各党派举行会谈，之后才能正式安排选举，可能的选举日期为5月11日或18日。蒙特内罗表示，他曾尽一切努力避免提前选举，并对国家因此陷入更加不利的境地表示遗憾。

据世界自然基金会(WWF)的数据，苏门答腊象正濒临灭绝，全球仅存约2400至2800头。当地保护机构官员表示，他们怀疑这头小象是被象群或其母亲遗弃的，被发现时独自一象。

China’s red-eye AI just killed human pilots’ last hope to win in air combat: researchers
Chinese researchers have developed a new AI system that can predict a pilot's maneuvers in a dogfight by analyzing subtle movements of the aircraft's control surfaces, potentially eliminating the human pilot's advantage of unpredictable actions. This breakthrough combines advanced infrared imaging with AI-driven predictive modeling to anticipate an opponent’s moves by detecting subtle wing-tail movements.
The study, published in the Journal of Gun Launch & Control, details how the AI system uses a modified YOLOv8 neural network to analyze infrared imagery and detect minute deformations in an opponent's control surfaces, such as the rudder or elevator. This allows the AI to overcome the limitations of existing systems that rely on trajectory-based predictions, which struggle with sudden, non-linear maneuvers.

Trump labels Tesla attacks domestic terrorism, vows to punish perpetrators
President Trump has vowed to crack down on violence against Tesla dealerships, labeling it domestic terrorism. This announcement came as a show of support for Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and a close ally of the president, following recent protests targeting the electric car company.
The protests, dubbed "Tesla Takedown," are a response to Musk's role in federal workforce cuts and the cancellation of humanitarian program contracts under the Trump administration's Department of Government Efficiency, which Musk leads. Trump's strong stance aims to protect what he considers a "great American company" and deter future acts of violence against businesses.

What can South Korea do about the strategic threats in Trump era?
President Trump's recent address to Congress signals a continuation of his "America First" foreign policy, characterized by transactional diplomacy and a re-evaluation of existing alliances. He criticized South Korea's trade practices, despite evidence suggesting otherwise, highlighting his focus on prioritizing US economic interests. This approach extends beyond economics, impacting security commitments and straining relationships with allies.
Trump's actions, including imposing tariffs on various countries and questioning security assurances, mark a departure from the collaborative approach of the previous administration. South Korea faces concerns regarding potential economic impacts from policies like the possible scrapping of the Chips and Science Act, as well as anxieties over US security commitments and Trump's willingness to engage directly with North Korea, potentially sidelining Seoul.

China manager creates 22 fake employees with perfect attendance, embezzles US$2.2 million
一名中国人力资源经理通过创建22名虚假员工，从公司侵吞了超过1600万元人民币（约合220万美元）的工资和遣散费。 这名姓杨的男子在上海一家劳务公司工作，负责管理派往一家科技公司员工的工资发放。
杨某发现自己对员工安置拥有完全的控制权，且劳务公司对工资支付没有审核流程。于是，他创建了一个姓孙的员工的雇佣记录，并以孙某的名义申请工资支付，然后将工资转移到他控制的银行卡上，但该银行卡并非以他的名义开设。当劳务公司注意到工资没有存入孙某的账户时，杨某声称是科技公司延迟付款。

‘How much more are you willing to pay?’ – Hong Kong reviews HK$15 prescriptions
香港公立医院和诊所的患者可能需要支付更高的处方费用。目前，医管局正在审查现行对16周药物供应收取15港元（1.92美元）的 heavily subsidised 费用。医管局集群服务主管邓耀铿医生表示，调整费用的目的不是为了削减成本，而是为了增加癌症和罕见病患者的资源，以满足他们对昂贵专利药物的需求。
邓耀铿医生表示，如果每位患者在支付药物费用时能多支付一点，医管局的“蛋糕”就会变大。这将对医管局的运作非常有益，因为医管局将有更多资源将临床有效但昂贵的药物引入药物处方。目前，政府承担了医管局92%的药物成本，而患者在专科门诊部只需支付15港元即可获得16周的药物供应。
