Russians return home from Miami via Aeroflot export flight – Russian Embassy

NEW YORK, June 1. / TASS /. Russian citizens who wished to return to their homeland flew on an Aeroflot flight from Miami, Florida to St. Petersburg and Moscow on Sunday, the Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoli Antonov told reporters on Monday.

According to the Miami International Airport time table, flight SU111 departed at 18:22 U.S. East Coast time (01:22 Moscow time). “Yesterday, 322 Russian citizens, including 10 babies, flew home. Three schoolchildren who were here as part of some private educational exchanges returned,”Antonov recalled the Aeroflot flight departing on Saturday, May 30 from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. “Today, 396 of our compatriots flew out, among them 49 infants and two schoolchildren,” he said.

“Thanks to the efforts of diplomats, a total of 44 citizens who needed immediate repatriation for humanitarian reasons were included in the flight lists of these flights. Among them are people in difficult life situations, patients who underwent treatment and rehabilitation in the United States, people with disabilities and older people, as well as five students whose term of study has come to an end,” said Antonov.

“I would like to note that eight special flights have already been organized for repatriation from the United States: seven from the east coast and one from the west,” he added. According to the Ambassador more than 2,000 people were able to return to their homeland.

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

JANE FRYER: The judo master who made me the fall guy… aged 97!

NewsColony JANE FRYER: The judo master who made me the fall guy… aged 97! Jane Fryer is pictured above with Jack Hearn. ‘See, I’d get you round the neck and press on your Adam’s apple,’ he grins, silver moustache bobbing, white teeth flashing. ‘ And if I carried on with that, you’d be dead in a minute’ There is a startling moment in Jack Hearn’s extremely spick and span kitchen, when I’m standing between his trophy table and the wall and he’s telling me how he could finish me off with his huge, bearlike paws. ‘See, I’d get you round the neck and press on your Adam’s apple,’ he grins, silver moustache bobbing, white teeth flashing. ‘ And if I carried on with that, you’d be dead in a minute.’ We have already had a lively discussion about whether he should, or should not, throw me over one of his surprisingly wide shoulders on to his beautifully vacuumed living room floor. ‘I could throw you, of course I could! But I won’t,’ he says.  ‘It’s not fair — you don’t know...
