Russian-made plane engine catches fire after landing in Turkey's Antalya

 

Terrifying video shows passengers fleeing a Russian jetliner that burst into flames on the runway in Turkey on Sunday.

 

The Russian-made Sukhoi Superjet 100 passenger plane from Azimuth Airlines caught fire on Sunday after landing at the Antalya Airport on the Mediterranean coast.

 

All 89 passengers and six crew members were forced to evacuate the plane as first responders rushed to put out the flames, according to the Turkey Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure.

 

Harrowing footage from the runways shows the plane engulfed in fire and smoke as passengers run away from the inferno with their bags in hand.

 

Some passengers could also be seen riding down the plane’s inflatable slide to exit the aircraft as quickly as they could.

 

The fire appeared to be coming from the plane’s left engine, with firefighters unleashing multiple hoses to try and put out the flames.

 

While the fire quickly spread from the engine, there are no reports of any injuries as a result, according to Turkey Today.

 

“All passengers were evacuated without injury, and thankfully, no one was harmed,” Antalya Governor’s Office Deputy Suat Seyitoglu told the local outlet.

 

Officials have yet to state what caused the fire on the plane, which had originated from Russia’ Sochi International Airport.

 

But, the incident occurred during an severe weather alert from the Turkish State Meteorological Service, which had warned of heavy storms in the area.

 

This isn’t the first time a Russian-made SSJ100 Superjet has caught fire while landing during severe weather.

 

In 2019, a Russian Aeroflot Sukhoi SSJ100 Superjet was struck by lightning after taking off from Moscow, forcing the plane to make an emergency landing and erupt in flames at the Sheremetyevo International Airport.

 

Of the 72 people on that flight, 41 were killed, with several passengers accused of delaying the evacuation effort by trying to save their luggage.

There is a $1 billion dollar Emerald in Los Angeles that was just forfeited to Brazil

 

An 836-pound “cursed” emerald worth nearly $1 billion will be returned to Brazil after 15 years under lock and key in Los Angeles.

 

The 180,000-carat Bahia Emerald was smuggled out of the South American country by two residents in 2001.

 

A legal battle over the stone ensued in 2014 as about 10 individuals, corporations and the Brazilian government fought over ownership.

 

On Thursday, a federal judge ruled in favor of a US Department of Justice motion to forfeit the gem to Brazil.

 

The emerald was discovered in a beryl mine in 2001 and later smuggled out of the rainforest and to the US by mules — one of whom was reportedly attacked by a panther during the mission.

 

Once here, it reportedly survived flooding during Hurricane Katrina.

 

Idaho businessman Kit Morrison eventually bought the gem for $1.3 million, but reported it missing a few years later, according to reports.

 

Los Angeles County sheriff’s investigators tracked it down to a Las Vegas vault, but since they could not figure out who owned the gem, they confiscated it.

 

The back-and-forth over the massive jewel led to rumors that it might be cursed.

 

Other crazy claims that have followed the stone include that it was involved in Brazilian Mafia plots and that it was part of a $197 million banking transaction with Bernie Madoff, The Post reported in 2015.

 

All the while, Brazilian officials argued it was a national treasure that belonged in a museum, according to the Washington Post. They called on their American counterparts to turn it over under a legal agreement between countries that allows for the exchange of evidence in criminal matters, since the gem was stolen.

 

Finally, US District Judge Reggie Walton said American gem speculators had stalled long enough.

 

“The Court has concluded that the intervenors’ positions are insufficient to prohibit the return of the emerald to Brazil,” Watson wrote in the ruling. “The Court must therefore enforce the Brazilian forfeiture judgment of the Bahia Emerald.”

 

“We’re very happy with the decision,” federal prosecutor Boni de Moraes Soares told the Washington Post. “We’re closer than ever to bringing the Bahia emerald back to the Brazilian people.”

 

The Bahia Emerald is one of the largest emeralds — if not the largest emerald — ever discovered, Brazilian authorities claimed in court documents.

 

Morrison, the former owner, told the outlet he doesn’t have any feelings of “defeat or loss.”

 

“When you are an investor and entrepreneur, you do everything you can to protect, preserve and improve the investment and opportunity,” he said. “However, you cannot control the things that are out of your control.”

 

If no appeal is filed, the rock will be turned over to Brazil in a formal repatriation ceremony.

“Viable Nonanomalous” 6-Month-Old Fetuses Sold From Planned Parenthood Abortions to University of California, New Documents Show

 

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 21—Never-before-seen documents released under a California public records request show Planned Parenthood supplying “viable nonanomalous” fetuses up to 23 weeks old from elective abortions to UC San Diego, as part of its contract to sell the University “proprietary” “fetal material” in exchange for the “valuable consideration” of owning any “patents” and “intellectual property” developed experimenting with them.

 

The shocking new admissions begin in a heavily-redacted Research Plan submitted to the UCSD Institutional Review Board (IRB) and approved in 2018. On page 3 of the IRB submission, the UCSD research lab writes, “We will collect tissues from fetuses ranging from 4 to 23 weeks gestational age from subjects undergoing elective surgical pregnancy termination at Planned Parenthood in San Diego” and that patients with “viable nonanomalous” fetuses will be enrolled. The majority of healthy infants born at 23 weeks can survive with modern medical care.

 

The IRB submission further states that clinical data collected for each subject will include “evidence of fetal heart activity by ultrasound immediately prior to the dilation and evacuation procedure”. The study sought to harvest fetuses from up to 2,500 patients.

 

In emails contemporaneous with the Research Plan, a harvesting worker writes, “[A]ny sample greater than about 12.5w[eeks] requires the use of a dilating medication which is given to the patients 3 hours ahead of their procedure (these are called “cyto” patients).” “Cyto” is short for Cytotec, or Misoprostol, which is the same drug used in chemical abortions to force-start labor contractions.

 

Some studies show a 50 microgram dose of Misoprostol is enough to induce labor by 4 hours in the majority of cases. Planned Parenthood national guidelines recommend 400 to 800 micrograms before late-term so-called “dilation and evacuation” abortions—8 to 16 times as much—and urge clinics not to allow patients to leave the clinic after taking the drugs.

 

“Planned Parenthood’s use of heavy doses of a labor contraction drug to dilate pregnant women targeted for a viable fetus harvesting project means these are likely not standard ‘dismemberment’ abortions, but either intact partial-birth abortions or full delivery of live preemies,” notes David Daleiden, founder and president of CMP.

 

Further emails suggest this is the case. Making plans to collect fetal hearts, a UCSD researcher writes to the harvesting laboratory, “Is there someone that we can coordinate with in your lab? We were unclear as to whether you bring the fetuses back to your lab for dissections or if the dissections will be done in clinic. I can have my folks who are cc’d coordinate with whomever is doing the collection.”

 

Documents released from the public records request earlier this year showed transfers of aborted fetuses from Planned Parenthood to UC San Diego taking place under an ongoing “Biological Materials Transfer Agreement” contract. That contract, made for “valuable consideration”, grants UCSD “access” to “fetal and placental tissue, which are proprietary materials of PPSD”. The parties agree that in granting “access” to the “proprietary” aborted fetal body parts, “PPSD shall retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Material, including but not limited to all right, title, and interest in patents and patent applications and other intellectual property rights relating to the Material”.

 

In March, Sen. Marco Rubio requested an investigation from the U.S. DOJ and HHS. The transfer of any aborted human fetal tissue for “valuable consideration” is a federal felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison or a fine of up to $500,000 (42 U.S.C. 289g-2).

 

Disturbingly, the documents released today also show racial discrimination in what consent forms for the harvesting program tell pregnant women at Planned Parenthood. The English-language forms include 15 bullet-pointed disclosures, the thirteenth of which states: “I understand that the donated blood, tissue, or their derivatives may have significant therapeutic or commercial value. I consent to such uses.” The disclosure about “commercial value” of the patient’s aborted baby is absent from the Spanish-language forms. The documents show UCSD’s IRB approved the racially-disparate translations in at least four consecutive years, from 2017 to 2020.
