WASHINGTON Cheap Ecco Leather Ireland , May 5 (Xinhua) -- The United States on Monday granted the status of foreign mission to the representative offices of the National Coalition of Syrian Opposition and Revolutionary Forces, and announced more non-lethal aid to the opposition.
"We are happy to announce that the coalition's representative offices in the United States are now foreign missions under the Foreign Missions Act," State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf told reporters at a daily press briefing.
She stressed that the move was not "tantamount to recognition" of the opposition group as the government of Syria, but would serve to facilitate banking and security services for its offices in the U.S. Cheap Ecco Dress Ireland , as well as their outreach to the Syrian diaspora in the country.
Harf said the move was part of measures aimed to support the coalition, which was recognized by Washington as the sole legitimate representative of the Syrian people in December 2012.
She said the Obama administration was working with the Congress to provide over 27 million dollars in additional non-lethal aid to the Syrian opposition, bringing such support to a total of some 287 million dollars.
In addition, Washington was stepping up deliveries of non- lethal aid to the rebel Free Syrian Army to "enhance their logistical capabilities Cheap Mens Ecco Casual Shoes Ireland ," Harf added.
She again called on the Syrian government and the coalition to work together to produce a transitional governing body in the war- torn country. "That's a very difficult process, but that's what needs to happen from here," she said.
She noted that Ahmad Jarba, president of the coalition Cheap Ecco Slip On Ireland , is in the U.S. for the first official visit.
MOGADISHU, Nov. 5 (Xinhua) -- A UN-backed toll free hotline has been launched in Somalia for victims of gender violence among internally displaced persons (IDPs).
Dubbed Ceebla in Somali, the hotline 5555 is supported by UN agencies, including the UN Assistance Mission in Somalia (UNSOM).
It offers victims the required information about emergency medical services and how to lodge a complaint with police through the helpline.
UNSOM Human Rights Officer Abdinasir Moallin Cheap Ecco Classic Moc 2.0 Ireland , speaking during the training on the use of the hotline, said the training aimed to sensitize IDPs on the services available.
"This training for IDPs from camps in Mogadishu on gender-based violence is meant to raise awareness and enhance their understanding," Moallin said in a statement issued on Thursday.
"We are also sharing with them information on services available for victims of gender-based violence, which includes domestic violence and rape Cheap Ecco Casual Shoes Ireland ," he added.
Sexual and gender-based violence is pervasive in Somalia with internally displaced women and girls being the most affected.
Local people say rape continues to be perpetrated by unknown armed men and "men wearing military uniform".
Cases of sexual and gender-based violence in Somalia also include domestic violence, harmful traditional practices such as female genital mutilation, and early and forced marriage. The majority of the survivors are women aged 18 and above.
Human rights groups say many cases of rape go unreported because women fear reprisals and being stigmatized.
"Most cases of gender-based violence go unreported because of stigmatization. We are educating them on the need to break the silence because there is a lot of gender-based violence in our communities. Unfortunately, our society thinks gender-based violence is normal and not a crime Cheap Ecco Yucatan Sandals Ireland ," said a local humanitarian organization officer Fadwo Hassan Jimalle.
UN puts the number of internally displaced in Somalia at over one million.
ED SHEERAN has settled a US$20m copyright infringement claim against him in the United States, over his hit song “Photograph.”
Songwriters Thomas Leonard and Martin Harrington sued the singer last June, claiming his hit ballad had a similar structure to their song, “Amazing.”
A lawyer for the pair confirmed to the BBC the claim had now been settled.
Leonard and Harrington’s track was released by former “X Factor” winner Matt Cardle in 2012.
On Friday Cheap Ecco Intrinsic Sandals Ireland , court papers were lodged dismissing the case “with prejudice,” stipulating that a California federal court would enforce the terms of an agreement.
Richard Busch, who represented Harrington and Leonard, would not comment on the settlement terms.
A spokeswoman for Sheeran’s record company Cheap Ecco Sandals Mens Ireland , Atlantic Records, told the BBC it did not comment on stories relating to copyright issues.
The songwriters originally claimed the chorus of the two songs shared 39 identical notes, with similarities “instantly recognizable to the ordinary observer.”
They submitted the chord structures for both tracks in court documents.
Busch is the same lawyer who won a case for the family of the late soul singer Marvin Gaye.
He successfully sued Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams for copyright infringement last year over their single “Blurred Lines,” winning a US$7.4m settlement.
