Input: Hurricane Debbie is the most powerful cyclone on record to strike Ireland in September , and possibly the only tropical cyclone on record to ever strike Britain and Ireland while still tropical . The fourth named storm of the 1961 Atlantic hurricane season , Debbie originated from a well-defined tropical disturbance that was first identified in late August over Central Africa . Tracking generally westward , the system moved off the coast of Senegal on September 5 into the Atlantic Ocean . By this time , it was estimated to have become a tropical storm , but forecasters did not issue advisories on the system until two days later . late on september 6 , debbie passed through the southern cape verde islands as a strong tropical storm or minimal hurricane , resulting in a plane crash that killed 60 people in the islands . Once clear of the islands , data on the storm became sparse , and the status of Debbie was uncertain over the following several days as it tracked west-northwestward and later northward . It was not until a commercial airliner intercepted the storm on September 10 that its location became certain . The following day , Debbie intensified and reached its peak intensity as a Category 3 hurricane on the Saffir–Simpson hurricane scale , with maximum winds of 120 mph ( 195 km/h ) . Maintaining its peak intensity for over a day , the hurricane gradually slowed its forward motion and weakened . By September 13 , Debbie 's motion became influenced by the Westerlies , causing the system to accelerate east-northeastward . The system passed over the western Azores as a minimal hurricane on September 15 . at this point , there is uncertainty as to the structure of debbie , whether it transitioned into an extratropical cyclone or maintained its identity as a tropical system . Regardless of which took place , the system deepened as it neared Ireland , skirting the coast of Western Ireland on September 16 . Shortly thereafter , the system was confirmed to have become extratropical as it continued towards the northeast . The remnants of the storm later turned eastward , striking Norway and Russia , before dissipating on September 19 . Striking Ireland as a powerful storm , Debbie brought record winds to much of the island , with a peak gust of measured just offshore . These winds caused widespread damage and disruption , downing tens of thousands of trees and power lines . Countless structures sustained varying degrees of damage , with many smaller buildings destroyed . Agriculture experienced extensive losses to barley , corn and wheat crops . Throughout Ireland , Debbie killed 18 people ( 12 in the Republic of Ireland and six in Northern Ireland ) . It caused US $ 40–50 million in damage in the Republic and at least £1.5 million ( US $ 4 million ) in Northern Ireland . The storm also battered parts of Great Britain with winds in excess of .

Input: The 2015 Baga massacre was a series of mass killings carried out by the Boko Haram terrorist group in the north-eastern Nigerian town of Baga and its environs , in the state of Borno , between 3 January and 7 January 2015 . the attack began on 3 january when boko haram overran a military base that was the headquarters of the multinational joint task force containing troops from chad , niger , and nigeria . The militants then forced thousands of locals from the region and committed mass killings that culminated on the 7th . Fatalities have been reported to be `` heavy '' but their extent is unclear . Western media outlets reported that `` over 2,000 '' people are thought to have been killed or `` unaccounted for '' , but local media reported `` at least a hundred '' fatalities , while the Nigerian Ministry of Defence said that no more than 150 people in total had been killed , including militants . Several government officials denied that the fatalities were as extensive as reported , with some even claiming that the massacre had never taken place or that the Nigerian military had repelled the militants from the region , a claim that was refuted by local officials , survivors , and the international media . Baga and at least 16 other towns are thought to have been destroyed as over 35,000 people are reported to have been displaced , with many feared to have drowned while trying to cross Lake Chad and others trapped on islands in the lake . The attacks are said to have resulted in Boko Haram extending its control to over 70 % of Borno State , while its leader , Abubakar Shekau , claimed responsibility for the massacre in a video statement , saying that they `` were not much '' and that the group 's insurgency `` would not stop '' .

Input: Turkish Airlines Flight 1951 ( also known as the Poldercrash or the Schiphol Polderbaan incident ) was a passenger flight that crashed during landing at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport , Netherlands , on 25 February 2009 , resulting in the death of nine passengers and crew , including all three pilots , who died on impact . The aircraft , a Turkish Airlines Boeing 737-800 , crashed into a field approximately north of the Polderbaan runway , ( 18R ) , prior to crossing the A9 motorway inbound , at 09:26 UTC ( 10:26 CET ) , having flown from Istanbul , Turkey . The aircraft broke into three pieces on impact . The wreckage did not catch fire . The crash was caused primarily by the aircraft 's automated reaction , which was triggered by a faulty radio altimeter . This caused the autothrottle to decrease the engine power to idle during approach . The crew noticed this too late to take appropriate action to increase the thrust and recover the aircraft before it stalled and crashed . Boeing has since issued a bulletin to remind pilots of all 737 series and BBJ aircraft of the importance of monitoring airspeed and altitude , advising against the use of autopilot or autothrottle while landing in cases of radio altimeter discrepancies .

Input: on 21 january 1968 , an aircraft accident ( sometimes known as the thule affair or thule accident ( ) ; ) involving a united states air force ( usaf ) b-52 bomber occurred near thule air base in the danish territory of greenland . the aircraft was carrying four unk thermonuclear bombs on a cold war `` chrome dome '' alert mission over baffin bay when a cabin fire forced the crew to abandon the aircraft before they could carry out an emergency landing at thule air base . Six crew members ejected safely , but one who did not have an ejection seat was killed while trying to bail out . The bomber crashed onto sea ice in North Star Bay , Greenland , causing the conventional explosives aboard to detonate and the nuclear payload to rupture and disperse , which resulted in radioactive contamination . The United States and Denmark launched an intensive clean-up and recovery operation , but the secondary stage of one of the nuclear weapons could not be accounted for after the operation was completed . usaf strategic air command `` chrome dome '' operations were discontinued immediately after the accident , which highlighted the safety and political risks of the missions . Safety procedures were reviewed and more stable explosives were developed for use in nuclear weapons . In 1995 , a political scandal resulted in Denmark after a report revealed the government had given tacit permission for nuclear weapons to be located in Greenland , in contravention of Denmark 's 1957 nuclear-free zone policy . Workers involved in the clean-up program have been campaigning for compensation for radiation-related illnesses they experienced in the years after the accident .

Input: Siege of Riga by the Russian Army under Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich was the main event of the Russo-Swedish War . The fortifications of Riga consisted of a wall with ditch and 5 bastions around the old town . In 1652 Swedes had started construction of a new wall with 12 bastions around suburbs , but by 1656 the work had not been completed . The Russian vanguard consisting of the Vladimir v. Vizin reiters , Daniel Krafert infantry and Iunkmann dragoons approached Riga on August 20 and threw back the Swedes under count of Pärnu , Heinrich von Thurn into the city . Von Thurn was either killed , or captured in the action . The Swedes evacuated the suburbs and withdrew to the old town . A few days later , the main army under Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich arrived on the ships on the Duna River , and laid siege to Riga . The Russian army occupied three camps , two on the east bank of the Duna in Riga 's suburbs , and a Corps under Ordyn-Nashokin on the west bank of the Duna , opposite the Kobrun entrenchment . As Russia had no full-fledged navy to intercept reinforcements coming to the Swedish garrison across the Baltic , Riga managed to hold out until October , when foreign officers commanding a small Russian flotilla defected to the other side and the Russians had to lift the siege . In the aftermath of this reverse , the Swedes recaptured much of Ingria , took the Pskov Monastery of the Caves and inflicted a heavy defeat on the Russian general Matvey Sheremetev at Valga in 1657 . The events of the siege were recorded in an engraving by Adam Perelli that was first published in 1697 in Samuel Puffendorf 's work , `` Konung Carl X Gustafs Bragder '' .

Input: The battle of Hamath , sometimes called The battle of Hama , was a battle between the Babylonians and the fleeing remains of the Egyptian army defeated at Carchemish . It was fought near the ancient city Hamath on the Orontes . In this battle Nebuchadrezzar further shattered the remains of Necho II 's Egyptian army that he had previously defeated in the Battle of Carchemish . The battle is mentioned in the Babylonian Chronicles , now housed in the British Museum . In the Chronicles it states that Nebuchadrezzar II killed almost all of the Egyptian combatants , so exhausted that none of them returned to their own country . The Chronicles do not mention Necho and the Bible only mentions 'Necho 's army ' , and it is possible that Necho was n't present and the Egyptian army was just a garrison army . He was dealing with various rebellions in the delta .

Input: There have been at least eight sieges of Stirling Castle , a strategically important fortification in Stirling , Scotland . Stirling is located at the crossing of the River Forth , making it a key location for access to the north of Scotland . The castle changed hands several times between English and Scottish control during the Wars of Scottish Independence ( 1296–1357 ) . In 1299 , the castle was in English hands , when the constable , John Sampson , was besieged by the Scots . In 1304 , Edward I of England besieged the Scots , deploying siege engines to force the garrison to surrender . In 1337 , a siege by Sir Andrew Murray failed to retake the castle . Between 1571 and 1585 , the castle was besieged three times by Scots factions during the reign of James VI . In 1651 , Oliver Cromwell captured the castle during his invasion of Scotland . The final siege took place in 1746 , when Charles Edward Stuart besieged the castle during the final Jacobite rising .

Input: The Arab–Israeli conflict refers to the political tension , military conflicts and disputes between Arab countries and Israel , which climaxed during the 20th century . The roots of the Arab–Israeli conflict are attributed to the rise of Zionism and Arab nationalism towards the end of the 19th century , though the two national movements had not clashed until the 1920s . part of the dispute unk from the conflicting claims to the land . Territory regarded by the Jewish people as their ancestral homeland is at the same time regarded by the Pan-Arab movement as historically and currently belonging to the Arab Palestinians , and in the Pan-Islamic context , as Muslim lands . the sectarian conflict between palestinian jews and arabs emerged in the 1920s , peaking into a full-scale civil war in 1947 and transforming into the first unk war in may 1948 , following the israeli declaration of independence . Large-scale hostilities mostly ended with the cease-fire agreements after the 1973 Yom Kippur War . Peace agreements were signed between Israel and Egypt in 1979 , resulting in Israeli withdrawal from the Sinai Peninsula and abolishment of the military governance system in the West Bank and Gaza Strip , in favor of Israeli Civil Administration and consequent unilateral annexation of the Golan Heights and East Jerusalem . The nature of the conflict has shifted over the years from the large-scale , regional Arab–Israeli conflict to a more local Israeli–Palestinian conflict , which peaked during the 1982 Lebanon War . With the decline of the First Palestinian Intifada , the interim Oslo Accords led to the creation of the Palestinian National Authority in 1994 , within the context of the Israeli–Palestinian peace process . The same year Israel and Jordan reached a peace accord . A cease-fire has been largely maintained between Israel and Baathist Syria , as well as with Lebanon . Despite the peace agreements with Egypt and Jordan , interim peace accords with the Palestinian Authority and the generally existing cease-fire , until mid-2010s the Arab League and Israel had remained at odds with each other over many issues . Developments in the course of the Syrian Civil War reshuffled the situation near Israel 's northern border , putting the Syrian Arab Republic , Hezbollah and the Syrian opposition at odds with each other and complicating their relations with Israel , upon the emerging warfare with Iran . The conflict between Israel and Hamas-ruled Gaza , is also attributed to the Iran–Israel proxy conflict in the region . By 2017 , Israel and several Arab Sunni states led by Saudi Arabia , formed a semi-official coalition to confront Iran - a move which some marked as the fading of the Arab-Israeli Conflict .

Input: Hurricane Michael of the 2000 Atlantic hurricane season caused moderate damage in Atlantic Canada . The seventeenth tropical cyclone , thirteenth named storm , and eighth hurricane of the season , Michael developed from a non-tropical system to the southwest of Bermuda on October 15 . The system was initially subtropical , but rapidly acquired tropical characteristics by October 17 . Michael quickly strengthened into a hurricane later that day . By October 20 , Michael peaked as a Category 2 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane wind scale at a relatively high latitude of 44°N . The storm weakened slightly to a Category 1 hurricane and became extratropical shortly before making landfall in Newfoundland on October 20 . As the intensity of Michael was equivalent to a Category 1 hurricane during landfall , high winds were reported throughout Atlantic Canada , especially in Newfoundland . Winds from the storm peaked at in St. Lawrence , Newfoundland ; other locations across the island reported winds of . High winds caused minor structure damage across Newfoundland , confined to vinyl siding peeled off , shattered windows , and unroofed houses . In addition , sporadic power outages were also reported from Corner Brook to St. John 's . Michael also dropped rainfall across Atlantic Canada and in Maine . The rainfall was generally light , with much of the region reporting between of precipitation . Michael also produced high tides , accompanied by waves reported as high as by a buoy well offshore of Newfoundland .

Input: The 2019 Southeast Asian Games , officially known as the 30th Southeast Asian Games ( `` Filipino : Ika-30 Palaro ng Timog-Silangang Asya '' ) or 2019 SEA Games and commonly known as Philippines 2019 will be the 30th edition of the Southeast Asian Games , a biennial regional multi-sport event which will be hosted by the Philippines from 30 November to 11 December 2019 . For this edition of the Games , four designated hubs will serve as hosts namely Manila , Clark , Subic , and a fourth cluster consisting of venues not grouped with the first three hubs . This will be the fourth time that the Philippines will host the games and its first time since 2005 . Previously , it had also hosted the 1981 and 1991 editions of the games . This edition is most notable for being the first edition to include e-sports and obstacle course as well as having the highest number of sports in the history of the games , at 56 . The hosting rights were originally awarded to Brunei Darussalam , but the country pulled out days before the 2015 Southeast Asian Games due to `` financial and logistical reasons . '' The Philippines was set to host the games , after Brunei 's withdrawal . However , the Philippines ' hosting was left uncertain following the withdrawal of government support on July 2017 as it plans to use the funds intended for the games on the rehabilitation of Marawi after being occupied by ISIS supporters . Thailand , Indonesia was willing to step in if no other countries expressed interest to host . Eventually , the Philippines reversed its withdrawal of support and announced that it accepted the hosting of the Games on 16 August 2017 . The country 's hosting of the 30th SEA Games is considered as a stepping stone for its possible bid to host the 2030 Asian Games .

Input: the cedar revolution ( arabic : unk unk - `` unk unk '' ) or independence intifada ( arabic : unk unk - `` unk unk '' ) was a chain of demonstrations in lebanon ( especially in the capital beirut ) triggered by the assassination of former lebanese prime minister , rafik hariri . The popular movement was remarkable for its avoidance of violence , peaceful approach , and its total reliance on methods of civil resistance . The primary goals of the activists were the withdrawal of Syrian troops from Lebanon and the replacement of a government heavily influenced by Syrian interests with more independent leadership , the establishment of an international commission to investigate the assassination of Prime Minister Hariri , the resignation of security officials to ensure the success of the plan , and the organization of free parliamentary elections . The demonstrators demanded the end of the Syrian influence in Lebanese politics . At the start of the demonstrations , Syria had been maintaining a force of roughly 14,000 soldiers and intelligence agents in Lebanon . Following the demonstrations , the Syrian troops completely withdrew from Lebanon on 27 April 2005 . With the disbanding of the Pro-Syrian government , the main goals of the revolution were achieved . ( For background information on Syria 's involvement in Lebanese politics , see the articles Syrian occupation of Lebanon and the Lebanese Civil War . ) the opposition has taken as its symbol the white and red colored scarf , and the blue ribbon ; the most popular motto of the movement was unk , unk , unk ( freedom , sovereignty , independence ) .

Input: the russian revolution was a period of political and social revolution across the territory of the russian empire which started with the abolishment of monarchy and concluded with the establishment of the soviet union by the bolsheviks and the end of the civil war . It began with the February Revolution which was focused around Petrograd ( now Saint Petersburg ) , the capital of Russia at that time . It took place in the context of heavy military setbacks during the First World War , which left much of the Russian Army in a state of mutiny . In the chaos , members of the Duma , Russia 's parliament , assumed control of the country , forming the Russian Provisional Government which was heavily dominated by the interests of large capitalists and the noble aristocracy . The army leadership felt they did not have the means to suppress the revolution , resulting in the abdication of Emperor Nicholas II . Grassroots community assemblies called 'Soviets ' , which were dominated by soldiers and the urban industrial working class , initially permitted the Provisional Government to rule , but insisted on a prerogative to influence the government and control various militias . A period of dual power ensued , during which the Provisional Government held state power while the national network of Soviets , led by socialists , had the allegiance of the lower classes and , increasingly , the left-leaning urban middle class . During this chaotic period there were frequent mutinies , protests and strikes . Many socialist political organizations were engaged in daily struggle and vied for influence within the Duma and the Soviets , central among which were the Bolsheviks ( `` Ones of the Majority '' ) led by Vladimir Lenin who campaigned for an immediate end to the war , land to the peasants , and bread to the workers . When the Provisional Government chose to continue fighting the war with Germany , the Bolsheviks and other socialist factions were able to exploit virtually universal disdain towards the war effort as justification to advance the revolution further . The Bolsheviks turned workers ' militias under their control into the Red Guards ( later the Red Army ) over which they exerted substantial control . The situation climaxed with the October Revolution , a Bolshevik-led armed insurrection by workers and soldiers in Petrograd that successfully overthrew the Provisional Government , transferring all its authority to the Soviets with the capital being relocated to Moscow shortly thereafter . The Bolsheviks had secured a strong base of support within the Soviets and , as the now supreme governing party , established a federal government dedicated to reorganizing the former empire into the world 's first socialist state , practicing Soviet democracy on a national and international scale . the promise to end russia 's participation in the first world war was honored promptly with the bolshevik leaders signing the treaty of brest-litovsk with germany in march 1918 . to further secure the new state , the cheka was established which functioned as a revolutionary security service that sought to weed out and punish those considered to be `` enemies of the people '' in campaigns consciously modeled on similar events during the french revolution . Soon after , civil war erupted among the `` Reds '' ( Bolsheviks ) , the `` Whites '' ( counter-revolutionaries ) , the independence movements and other socialist factions opposed to the Bolsheviks . it continued for several years , during which the bolsheviks defeated both the whites and all rival socialists and thereafter reconstituted themselves as the communist party . Soviet power was established in the newly independent republics of Armenia , Azerbaijan , Belarus , Georgia and Ukraine which led to their unification into the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics ( USSR ) in 1922 . While many notable historical events occurred in Moscow and Petrograd , there was also a visible movement in cities throughout the state , among national minorities throughout the empire and in the rural areas , where peasants took over and redistributed land .

Input: The events surrounding the formation of the United Kingdom 's government in 2010 took place between 7 May and 12 May 2010 , following the 2010 general election , which failed to produce an overall majority for any of the country 's three main political parties . The election , held on 6 May , resulted in the first hung parliament in the UK in 36 years , sparking a series of negotiations which would form the first coalition government since the Second World War . The governing Labour administration led by Gordon Brown was defeated in the election and lost its overall majority after 13 years in office . The opposition Conservatives led by David Cameron won the largest number of seats in the new Parliament , but fell short of the number required to secure an overall majority . Consequently , senior figures from both parties embarked on a series of make-or-break meetings with representatives from the Liberal Democrats led by Nick Clegg , aimed at forming a coalition government . As leader of the third largest party , Clegg had announced that the Liberal Democrats would enter talks with whichever party held the greater number of seats . A series of meetings with the Conservatives began shortly after the hung parliament was announced , and continued over the weekend after the election . negotiations were also held with the labour party . the scottish national party signalled its willingness to join labour and the liberal democrats in government as part of a rainbow coalition , but it quickly became clear that gordon brown 's continued presence as prime minister was seen as a major obstacle to formulating a unk democrat deal . although brown relinquished his role as labour leader on 10 may , the party failed to reach an agreement with the liberal democrats ; the latter instead struck a deal with the conservatives the following day . Brown resigned as Prime Minister on the evening of 11 May , and the Conservative–Liberal Democrat Coalition government led by David Cameron took office shortly thereafter . The Liberal Democrats emerged from a meeting of their Parliamentary party and Federal Executive to announce that the coalition deal had been `` approved overwhelmingly '' shortly after midnight on 12 May , and later the same day the two parties published the Conservative – Liberal Democrat coalition agreement setting out the terms of their deal . While Cameron became Prime Minister , Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg was appointed as Deputy Prime Minister .

Input: Hurricane Charlie was the deadliest tropical cyclone of the 1951 Atlantic hurricane season . The third named storm , second hurricane , and second major hurricane of the season , it developed from a tropical wave east of the Lesser Antilles . It moved briskly west-northwest , passing between the islands of Dominica and Guadeloupe . It strengthened to a hurricane in the eastern Caribbean Sea , and it struck Jamaica with winds near Category 3 intensity . It strengthened to a peak intensity of 135 mph ( 215 km/h ) prior to landfall on Quintana Roo , Yucatán Peninsula . It weakened over land , and it re-strengthened over the Gulf of Mexico before it made a final landfall near Tampico . In its path , Charlie caused more than 250 deaths . The hurricane produced Jamaica 's deadliest natural disaster of the 20th century , causing more than 152 deaths and $ 50,000,000 in damages . The hurricane was described as Tampico 's worst tropical cyclone since 1936 , and it caused more than 100 fatalities in the surrounding areas . Many bodies were not recovered after flooding . The hurricane produced peak gusts of 160 mph ( 260 km/h ) at the airport , and its strongest sustained winds were unmeasured in mainland Mexico , suggesting that it may have been a Category 4 hurricane at landfall .
