A landmark independent report has found China is breaching every prohibited act of the UN Genocide Convention with its treatment of the Uighur people and bears responsibility "for committing genocide".
The report from the Washington DC-based think tank Newlines Institute for Strategy and Policy is described as the "first independent expert application" of the UN Genocide Convention to the ongoing treatment of 1-2 million Uighurs thought to be in camps in the north-western Chinese province of Xinjiang.

The Green Party says an upcoming Rocket Lab launch in New Zealand breaches national security and threatens the country's sovereignty and national interests.
Rocket Lab, which is United States-owned but based in New Zealand, is due to launch its next mission in mid-March at Māhia Peninsula. The mission will carry and deploy satellites for a range of commercial and government customers, including the US Army's Space and Missile Defense Command (SMDC).

- Note from Nighthawk.NZ:
The Greens can just Fuck off... First, RocketLab is no longer a New Zealand Company and they will just launch from the US Wallops Island launch site. "An experimental" satellite that satellite that "will test technologies that support development of new capabilities for the US Army" and civil uses as well. New Zealand might as well get the tax from it because they will just launch it from the US. I very much doubt it is breaking any NZ law.
