Protesters Demand Justice After Station Roof Collapse
發布於 2024-11-12 10:30:13
Anti-government protesters in Serbia are demanding arrests and the resignations of top officials over the deadly collapse of a concrete roof at a railway station that killed 14 people in a northern city this month.
The rally in Belgrade blamed the collapse on rampant (猖獗的，泛濫的) corruption and sloppy renovation work on the station building in Novi Sad.
The work was part of a wider deal with Chinese state companies involved in a number of infrastructure projects in the Balkan country.
Authorities have opened an investigation and Serbia’s construction minister submitted his resignation last week, but no one has been charged or detained.

Emperor Penguin Found in Australia
發布於 2024-11-12 10:30:13
An emperor penguin found malnourished far from its Antarctic home on the Australian south coast is being cared for by a wildlife expert.
A government statement says the adult male was found earlier this month on a popular tourist beach in southwest Australia — about 3,500 kilometers north of the icy waters off the Antarctic coast.
Researchers say the largest penguin species has never been reported in Australia before.
And they have no idea why the penguin traveled to the Australian town.
Experts are focusing their efforts on rehabilitating (使康復) the bird, but say "options are still being worked through" on if the penguin could potentially be returned to Antarctica.
