The suspect demanded their belongings, but the victims did not have items of value to the perpetrator, who got back into the car and left the scene. The victims reported the incident to the control room, and a lookout was placed. CAP Tactical Officers successfully located the vehicle, apprehended the suspect, and recovered the vehicle on Hamlin Street on the corner of Athol Road, Highlands North. Upon searching the vehicle, JMPD officers who were assisting found a firearm. The suspect and vehicle were then taken to Norwood SAPS Station by JMPD. In order to ensure that the suspect is remanded in custody and put on trial, CAP will assist the SAPS to link him to other cases if possible. It is also critical that victims open cases. Achieving arrests that can be prosecuted is the hallmark of a truly preemptive and proactive initiative - one of the things that makes CAP unique. ➡️ Report any suspicious activity immediately to CAP at 0861 227 227. ➡️ Be aware of your surroundings and trust your instincts. ➡️ Partner with CAP and other security organisations to create a safer community. Sincerely, The CAP Team

Deputy Speaker and Cebu Fifth District Rep. Duke Frasco has taken proactive steps towards enhancing firefighting capabilities by advocating for the procurement of firefighting helicopters in 2025. In House Resolution No. 1686, Frasco urged the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) and the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) to allocate resources for the acquisition of airborne firefighting units in the upcoming national expenditure program. Recognizing the efficacy of aerial firefighting in both urban and rural fire suppression, Frasco emphasized the need for the BFP to possess dedicated firefighting helicopters, reducing reliance on external entities like the Philippine Air Force. Frasco’s resolution responds to the alarming 25% increase in fire incidents within the first two months of 2024, highlighting the urgent need for upgraded firefighting capabilities. Challenges such as traffic congestion delaying firefighters' response and limited access to fire-affected areas due to outdated equipment underscore the critical need for modernization within the BFP. Aligned with the BFP Modernization Program, which aims to enhance personnel capabilities and acquire advanced firefighting equipment, Frasco’s advocacy seeks to fortify public safety and firefighting efficiency.

#SAS #TravelSecurity #SecurityServices #Pakistan: Two Fitna al-Khawarij terrorists were killed during a Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) operation on the Dera Ghazi Khan-Quetta road in Lahore. The terrorists were killed by their own accomplices, and two others managed to escape. The CTD also recovered a hand grenade and explosive material from the terrorists' den. A search operation is currently underway to apprehend the remaining terrorists. This incident is not the first time that terrorists have killed one of their own. The CTD operation is part of the government's efforts to combat terrorism in Pakistan, following the approval of Operation Azm-e-Istehkam. The country has been grappling with various challenges, including economic instability and political unrest, and terrorism has further worsened the situation. There has been a surge in terror incidents, particularly in the bordering provinces of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan. In August alone, there were 59 attacks, with Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan being the most affected regions. The Pakistani government is working to address these security concerns and root out terrorism through its counter-terrorism campaign. #Investigations #Intelligence #Securityservices #Executiveprotection #Securitymanagement #Travelrisk #Travelsecurity #Riskanalysis #Securitylogistic For info: S.A.S. investigations and security Phone: +39 0463 901545 Web: www.sasinvestigation.com Mail.

The recently proposed #Disastermanagement Amendment Bill is a welcome step to make the Disaster Management Act 2005 more robust and enhance the capacities of the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA)INDIA. At a time when several Indian states are witnessing floods and cloud bursts, the proposed amendment bill holds significant relevance for all. The following are the three key takeaways from the proposed amendment bill: 1) Addition of terminologies related to #climaterisk: This includes adding terms like #exposure, #sensitivity, #vulnerability, etc. 2) Establishment of an 'Urban Disaster Management Authority' for state capitals and cities having municipal corporations. This new unit will create new 'Urban Plans' which will highlight strategies to deal with disaster risk at an urban level. 3) Enhanced role of NDMA which includes undertaking disaster preparedness assessments, post-disaster audits and creation of a 'Disaster #Database'. However, the exclusion of 'Guidelines for Minimum Standards for Relief', the definitions of words like '#Evacuation' along with the changes to the delivery of relief and #rehabilitation might lead to severe implications for #disasterdisplacement in India. The proposed bill has also not proposed any major changes to the power of district authorities, thus missing out on strengthening #Local Level Adaptation.

FLiRT Covid Subvariants Detected in Australia | Zelenskyy Seeks Defence Systems A new family of COVID-19 subvariants, known as FLiRT, has been detected in Australia after spreading through the United States. These subvariants, derived from the JN.1 variant and including KP.1 and KP.2, are more transmissible but generally result in less severe illness. The World Health Organization is monitoring these variants due to their potential impact on global health. With cases on the rise, Australian health officials urge continued vigilance and public health measures to curb the spread. In other news, the New South Wales government has announced a two-year extension for the Eraring Power Station, Australia’s largest coal-fired power plant. This decision, made in agreement with Origin Energy, aims to prevent electricity shortages and ensure a reliable energy supply while more renewable sources are developed. Origin Energy may further extend the plant's operations until 2029 without state compensation. Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy has renewed his call for advanced defence systems to protect Ukraine’s cities from Russian-guided bombs, which have caused significant civilian casualties and destruction since the invasion began in February 2022. Zelenskyy also announced that Albania, Austria, Chile, and Mozambique will join a peace summit in Switzerland in June, aiming to build a coalition to pressure Russia into agreeing to a peace settlement under U.N. terms.

According to our 2023 review of the Information Publication Scheme (IPS), only 20% of Australian Government agencies reported maintaining an IPS information register, falling from 38% of agencies in 2018. Maintaining an IPS information register was the most common challenge agencies reported, experienced by 36% of agencies, up from 18% in 2018. We recommend agencies decide if information should be prepared for publication at the time it’s created. An internal IPS information register can help identify documents for publication, record decisions made in relation to publication and systematically review IPS information for accuracy, currency and completeness. More information on complying with the IPS: https://lnkd.in/d8XhaKpz
