    UK CAA: Paramotor pilot ordered to pay £8,000 after injuring passer-by

    Following a UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) investigation, paramotor pilot David Soos pleaded guilty to endangering a person. On 16 September 2024 he operated a paramotor trike recklessly in a farmer's field in Reedness, striking a passer-by and causing fractures to the victim's tibia, fibula and ankle. On 25 September 2026 Hull Magistrates' Court ordered Soos to pay £8,000 compensation to the victim. The CAA notes that paramotor and powered hang glider operators need no pilot licence or airworthiness certification, but must still comply with rules of the air, including minimum heights and distances from people and property, taking off and landing clear of congested areas, and staying out…

    EU Commissioner Lahbib Speaks on Haiti at UN General Assembly

    EU Commissioner Lahbib addressed the UN General Assembly on Haiti, noting that children are being recruited by gangs, families are trapped behind walls of violence, and humanitarian workers risk their lives to reach people in need. Since 1994, the EU has provided close to €600 million in humanitarian aid to Haiti, making it the largest recipient of EU humanitarian assistance in Latin America and the Caribbean. This year alone, EU support amounts to €23 million, with an additional €10 million for the Haitian National Police and the Gang Suppression Force.

    EU Commissioner Calls for Protection of Children in Gaza and the West Bank

    European Commissioner Lahbib spoke at the Call to Action for the Children of Gaza and the West Bank in New York, stating that nearly the entire population of Gaza is squeezed into less than half of the Strip, overcrowded, unsanitary and unsafe, with children lacking food, medicine and shelter and many out of school. Despite the ceasefire announced in October, children are still being killed and injured by airstrikes and other attacks; by early August, at least 300 children had been killed in the 300 days since the ceasefire was announced. In the West Bank, military operations, demolitions, movement restrictions and settler violence cut people off from water, healthcare and jobs, and childre…

She stressed that international humanitarian law applies to drone warfare and called for the protection of civilians, humanitarian workers, hospitals, aid convoys and camps for displaced families.

    BCD issues practical hotel safety guide for business travelers

    BCD Travel published a hotel safety guide for business travelers, drawing on insights from its Global Crisis Management team and BCD Marketplace partner Maiden Voyage. BCD research found travelers often feel confident in their hotel choices, yet safety risks still exist. The guide offers eight practical measures: setting safety-related preferences before arrival (such as a non-adjoining room, a room above the ground floor, or a location close to elevators or away from isolated areas); protecting the room number at check-in; assessing room location and securing doors, windows and adjoining-room entrances; using secondary locks while inside; verifying unexpected visitors before opening the do…

    EU Calls for Humanitarian Access and Ceasefire in Sudan at UNGA

    EU Commissioner Lahbib told a ministerial-level side event on Sudan at the UN General Assembly that 33 million people need help to survive, up to 150,000 have been killed since the war began, and Sudan tops nearly every ranking as the largest humanitarian and displacement crisis. She cited sexual violence against women and girls, detained humanitarian workers, and drone strikes on hospitals and markets, with Darfur, the Kordofans and Blue Nile State especially alarming. The EU has provided over €276 million in humanitarian support linked to the Sudan crisis this year, including €162 million for Sudan itself, and called for respect for international humanitarian law and unhindered cross-bord…

    ACI Guidance on Reducing Runway Overrun Consequences: RESA and EMAS

    Airports Council International (ACI) World published guidance on reducing the consequences of runway overruns, noting that while overruns are infrequent their consequences can be severe and that runway excursions remain one of ICAO's global high-risk occurrence categories. It says airport leadership must ensure every runway end has appropriate protection, that residual risk is understood, and that improvement decisions are funded. Protection options include runway end safety areas (RESA), which provide additional space beyond the runway strip with dimensions set by ICAO Annex 14, and engineered materials arresting systems (EMAS), which passively absorb energy to decelerate an overrunning ai…

    UK CAA and charity call for end to laser attacks on air ambulance helicopters

    The UK Civil Aviation Authority and the charity Air Ambulances UK have jointly called for an end to laser attacks on air ambulance helicopters during UK Air Ambulance Week. Such attacks occur every month and can cause temporary blindness, distraction and even long-term eye damage to pilots; because most air ambulances operate with a single pilot, the risk is significant and critical patient care can be delayed. There were 94 attacks on emergency helicopters in 2025 and 35 in the first half of 2026. Targeting an aircraft with a laser is a criminal offence carrying up to five years in prison or an unlimited fine.

    U.S. State Department Keeps Curaçao at Level 1: Exercise Normal Precautions

    The U.S. State Department kept Curaçao at a Level 1 travel advisory, calling for normal precautions. The advisory says Curaçao is generally a safe destination with low crime rates, and that petty crime is most likely in popular tourist locations. Most crimes against foreigners are crimes of opportunity, such as theft of unsecured property or vehicle break-ins. Overcharges and scams occur in tourist areas, some sellers may be aggressive, and tourist police are available at most sites. Armed robberies occur at businesses storing large amounts of cash or involved in drug or gang activity. Bringing guns, ammunition, and even spent shells or casings into Curaçao is illegal and may lead to arrest…

    U.S. State Department: Hong Kong at Level 2 'Exercise Increased Caution'

    The U.S. Department of State rates Hong Kong SAR as Level 2 'Exercise Increased Caution' due to arbitrary enforcement of local laws. Laws passed by Hong Kong authorities limit civil liberties and apply to anyone in Hong Kong, including foreigners, and arrest warrants have been issued for individuals outside Hong Kong, including U.S. citizens. On March 23, 2026, the Hong Kong government changed the implementing rules of the National Security Law, making it a criminal offense in national security cases to refuse to give police passwords or assist in decryption to allow full access to personal electronic devices, including phones and laptops; this applies to everyone in Hong Kong, on arrival,…

    U.S. State Department: Macau at Level 3 'Reconsider Travel'

    The U.S. Department of State rates Macau SAR as Level 3 'Reconsider Travel' due to the limited ability of the U.S. government to provide emergency consular services and arbitrary enforcement of local laws. Because of China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs travel restrictions on U.S. diplomatic personnel, all U.S. diplomatic personnel, including those accredited to Macau SAR, must apply for and receive visas before entering, which can take a week or longer and limits timely consular services. The Macau SAR government does not recognize dual nationality, and dual U.S.-Chinese citizens and U.S. citizens of Chinese descent may face additional security checks. Participating in gatherings authoritie…
