The West Kelowna Warriors addressed a need to their roster via trade on Tuesday, Nov. 26. In a press release, the team announced their have acquired Swedish defenceman Axel Lofgren from the Powell River Kings, in exchange for defenceman Landen Hilditch and forward Eliot Compton. Lofgren brings a scoring punch to the Warriors defensive core as he's currently fifth in scoring for BCHL defencemen with 16 points (eight goals, eight assists) in 20 games. "Lofgren is a big, mobile, smooth skating defenceman with great offensive instincts and ability to create offence." said Warriors Head Coach and General Manager Simon Ferguson. "We are very excited to add Axel to our d-core as we think he will be a great fit for our style of play. Obviously anytime you add a player of Axel’s calibre in a trade you have to move out some valuable players." Hilditch has a record year for the Warriors in 2023-24, recording 15 points in 51 games. He has just two assists in 19 games this year and in his career, has 26 points in 109 BCHL games. Compton, also heading to the Kings, has 13 points in 72 career games, all with the Warriors. "Landen and Eliot are both good hockey players and even better people which made moving them especially difficult. We wish them nothing but the best in their futures and we thank them for everything they have given to the community of West Kelowna," added Ferguson. Lofgren also brings some comradery to the Warriors, as he's going to reunite with Warriors' Elias Callgren. The two of them played together for Luleå HF J20 of the J20 Nationell League in Sweden last season. Lofgren is set to make his Warriors debut on Friday, Nov. 29 when the Warriors host the Trail Smoke Eaters at Royal LePage Place at 7 p.m.Jamieson Greer: The New Architect of America's Trade FutureASP Isotopes Inc.

Aussie cricket great Ian Healy torches selector George Bailey over bizarre post-match act Ian Healy calls out selector for odd act with players India lead the five-Test Border-Gavaskar series 1-0 By JAMES COONEY FOR DAILY MAIL AUSTRALIA and OLIVER CAFFREY FOR AUSTRALIAN ASSOCIATED PRESS Published: 23:08, 26 November 2024 | Updated: 23:13, 26 November 2024 e-mail View comments Aussie cricket legend Ian Healy has taken aim at selector George Bailey for a bizarre act following Australia 's crushing Test loss to India . After bowling India out for 150 on day one, Australia were annihilated for the rest of the match, slumping to a record 295-run smashing at Optus Stadium. Following up a dismal 104 - their lowest Test total against India at home for 44 years - Australia showed at least some fight in their second innings on Monday, before being dismissed for 238 soon after tea on day four. Australia's previous largest home Test loss against India by runs was 222 at the MCG in 1977, when their side was heavily impacted by World Series Cricket. Healy, and SEN radio host Pat Welch, have ripped into selector Bailey for spending time with the players during the match and then shaking hands with Indian players after the match. Historically, selectors sit apart from cricketers while they play, often taking notes. Aussie cricket great Ian Healy has called out selector George Bailey for his bizarre decision to shake hands with Indian players after the match Bailey was also spotted sitting with the Aussie players during the match 'What's the Chairman of Selectors doing sitting there in a tracksuit?' Welch said. 'He should be in a corporate box somewhere watching and taking notes.' Healy was shocked to see Bailey out on the field after the game. 'He went out and shook hands with everyone, he did the whole shaking hands in a conga line,' Healy said. 'I would be thinking if I'm an Indian cricketer, "What do I need to shake your hand for, you're the chairman of selectors? I just want to hurry up and get this win celebrated".' Meanwhile, Australia are sticking with the same squad for the second Test in Adelaide that suffered a shock smashing by India in Perth. With 11 days until the day-night match at Adelaide Oval, there could have been a temptation to shake up the XI that opened the Border-Gavaskar series with a record 295-run humiliation. But Australia coach Andrew McDonald will give the under-performing batting line-up a chance to redeem themselves after being blown away by India's fast bowling superstar Jasprit Bumrah. Australia are sticking with the same squad for the second Test in Adelaide that suffered a shock smashing by India in Perth 'The same people in that change room are the same people that will be in Adelaide,' McDonald said. Although McDonald did leave the door open for white-ball keeper Josh Inglis, who was in the 13-man squad for Perth, to make his Test debut as a batter in the top-six. Allrounder Mitch Marsh has pulled up sore after bowling the most overs - 17 - he has in a game for three years. There were already concerns over Marsh's fitness heading into the Test after hurting his hamstring in the Indian Premier League and coming into camp following time off for parental leave. Those fears were realised when India batted for a day and a half in the second innings, requiring Marsh to bowl more than Australia would have liked. The player who bowled when Marsh was spent - Marnus Labuschagne - is the Australian batter most under pressure. The former No.1-ranked Test batter's decline continued in Perth after he fell for scores of two and three, unsuccessfully burning a review when he was lbw in each innings. Labuschagne is averaging just 24 this year and his last century came in July 2023. McDonald threw his support around the struggling No.3. 'When we've seen him at his best he's shown great intent at the crease,' McDonald said. 'That's an ongoing discussion and that ebbs and flows in players' careers, so at the moment he's in one of those patches and no doubt he'll be getting critiqued externally. 'But internally we're really confident that, at his best, he's the player that we need. 'We're really confident he can turn that around.'

Essex Fire Service also confirmed firefighters had attended the scene and released a man trapped in his car. A statement read: “Crews were called to High Road, Epping, at 1.02pm this afternoon after reports of a road traffic collision involving one car. “In arrival, firefighters reported that a man was trapped in his car and worked to release him by 1.45pm. The casualty was left in the care of the Ambulance Service.” A further statement from Essex Police added: “Officers investigating a serious collision in Epping are asking for witnesses and dash cam footage. “We were called shortly after 12.50pm on Saturday 7 December to Coppice Row, Epping, following reports of what is believed to be a single vehicle collision involving a Ferrari. “Emergency services attended and the driver has been taken to hospital. “The vehicle has been recovered and we are no longer on scene.” London-born Antonio, a Jamaica international, is in his 10th season with West Ham after joining the club from Nottingham Forest in 2015. He has scored 83 goals in 323 appearances for the club and helped them win the Europa Conference League in 2023. Antonio began his footballing journey with non-League Tooting and Mitcham before moving into the professional ranks with Reading. He has also had spells with Cheltenham, Southampton, Colchester and Sheffield Wednesday. A number of West Ham’s rival clubs have posted well wishes. A social media post from Arsenal read: “Everyone at Arsenal sends their love, support and well wishes to Michail, his family and West Ham United.” Chelsea said: “The thoughts of everyone at Chelsea FC are with Michail and his family.” A message from Liverpool read: “The thoughts and prayers of everyone at LFC are with Michail and his family.” West Ham were not playing on Saturday but host Wolves at the London Stadium on Monday.BEIRUT: Syria’s embattled government said Saturday it was setting up a ring of steel around Damascus, state media reported, as rebels on a lightning advance said they were bearing down on the city. Syria’s presidency also denied reports that President Bashar Al-Assad had left Damascus, saying he was “following up on his work and national and constitutional duties from the capital”. “There is a very strong security and military cordon on the far edges of Damascus and its countryside, and no one... can penetrate this defensive line that we, the armed forces, are building,” Interior Minister Mohammed Al-Rahmoun told state television from the capital. Earlier, Assad’s government denied that the army had withdrawn from areas around Damascus. “Our forces have begun the final phase of encircling the capital,” said rebel commander Hassan Abdel Ghani, with the Islamist-led alliance that launched the offensive. The leader of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), the Islamist group which has headed the assault, told fighters to prepare to take the seat of Assad’s government, just over a week into a renewed offensive in the long-dormant conflict. “Damascus awaits you,” said HTS’ Ahmed Al-Sharaa in a statement on Telegram, using his real name instead of his nom de guerre, Abu Mohammed Al-Jolani. Syria’s defense ministry said army forces were “present in all areas of the Damascus countryside”. “There is no truth to news claiming our armed forces... have withdrawn” from positions near Damascus, it said. In a Damascus suburb on Saturday, witnesses said protesters toppled a statue of the late president Hafez Al-Assad, who handed Syria’s rule to his son. Similar scenes were witnessed in images shared by local media in the southern city of Daraa and in online footage verified by AFP from Hama, north of the capital. In Hama, an AFP photographer saw residents set fire to a giant poster of President Assad on the facade of city hall. “The rebels entered Hama, it was a great joy for us — something we had been waiting for since 2011,” said resident Maymouna Jawad, of the year Assad’s crackdown on democracy protests escalated into civil war. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, whose government backs armed groups in north Syria and has sent ground forces across the border numerous times since 2016, said on Saturday that Syria “is tired of war, blood and tears”. “Our wish is for our neighbor, Syria, to find the peace and tranquility it has been dreaming of for 13 years.” US President-elect Donald Trump said Saturday that the United States should “not get involved” in the situation in Syria where fast-moving rebel forces say they have begun to encircle the capital Damascus. “Syria is a mess, but is not our friend, & THE UNITED STATES SHOULD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. THIS IS NOT OUR FIGHT. LET IT PLAY OUT. DO NOT GET INVOLVED!” Trump said on his Truth Social platform. Trump said in his post that Russia, “with the loss there of over 600,000 soldiers, seems incapable of stopping this literal march through Syria, a country they have protected for years”. “But now they are, like possibly Assad himself, being forced out, and it may actually be the best thing that can happen to them. There was never much of a benefit in Syria for Russia.” The HTS leader said in a CNN interview published on Friday that “the goal of the revolution remains the overthrow of this regime”. As government forces fall back in the face of the offensive gathering even more momentum, a war monitor and Abdel Ghani said rebels were within 20 kilometers of Damascus. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said government forces had ceded more key ground, losing control of all of southern Daraa province, cradle of the 2011 uprising. The army said it was “redeploying and repositioning” in Daraa and another southern province, Sweida. The Britain-based Observatory said troops were also evacuating posts in Quneitra, near the Zionist-annexed Golan Heights where the Zionist entity said it was boosting its troop presence. Jordan has urged its citizens to leave neighboring Syria “as soon as possible”, as have Assad ally Russia and the United States, which both keep troops in Syria. After the HTS-led rebels seized Aleppo and Hama earlier in their offensive since Nov 27, Daraa was taken by local armed groups, the Observatory said. An AFP correspondent in Daraa saw local fighters guarding public property and civil institutions on Saturday. In Sweida city, a local fighter told AFP that after government forces had withdrawn “from their positions and headquarters, we are now securing and protecting vital facilities”. “We must remain vigilant to avoid descending into chaos, as chaos will harm everyone.” In the central Homs area, a key stepping stone to Damascus, the Observatory said government forces had brought “large reinforcements” and stopped the rebel advance. By Friday, the government was also pulling troops out of Deir Ezzor in the east, with Kurdish-led forces saying they had moved in. An Iraqi security source told AFP that Baghdad has allowed in hundreds of Syrian soldiers who “fled the front lines” and entered through the Al-Qaim border crossing, the Syrian side of which is in Deir Ezzor province. A second source put the figure at 2,000 troops, including officers. HTS is rooted in the Syrian branch of Al-Qaeda. Proscribed as a terrorist organization by Western governments, it has sought to soften its image in recent years. As the Islamist rebels seize more territory, they have sought to reassure minority groups living in areas now under their control. “We ask that all sects be reassured... for the era of sectarianism and tyranny has gone away forever,” said Abdel Ghani. Since the offensive began last week, at least 826 people, mostly combatants but also including 111 civilians, have been killed, according to the Observatory. The United Nations said the violence has displaced 370,000 people. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken called for a “political solution to the conflict”, his spokesperson said Friday, in a call with Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan. Fidan his Iranian and Russian counterparts discussed Syria in Qatar on Saturday. Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the parties agreed on the initiation of “political dialogue between the Syrian government and the legitimate opposition groups”. Russia’s top diplomat Sergei Lavrov said it was “inadmissible” to allow a “terrorist group to take control” of Syrian territory. Moscow and Tehran have supported Assad’s government and army during the war, as has Lebanese armed group Hezbollah. A source close to the group said Hezbollah had sent 2,000 fighters into Syria, to an area near the Lebanese border, “to defend its positions”. – Agencies

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel approved a United States-brokered ceasefire agreement with Lebanon's Hezbollah on Tuesday, setting the stage for an end to nearly 14 months of fighting linked to the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip. Israeli warplanes meanwhile carried out the most intense wave of strikes in Beirut and its southern suburbs since the start of the conflict and issued a record number of evacuation warnings. At least 24 people were killed in strikes across the country, according to local authorities, as Israel signaled it aims to keep pummeling Hezbollah before the ceasefire is set to take hold at 4 a.m. local time on Wednesday. Another huge airstrike shook Beirut shortly after the ceasefire was announced. Israel's security Cabinet approved the ceasefire agreement late Tuesday after it was presented by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his office said. U.S. President Joe Biden, speaking in Washington, called the agreement “good news” and said his administration would make a renewed push for a ceasefire in Gaza. An Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire would mark the first major step toward ending the regionwide unrest triggered by Hamas’ attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. But it does not address the devastating war in Gaza, where Hamas is still holding dozens of hostages and the conflict is more intractable. U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to bring peace to the Middle East without saying how. The Biden administration spent much of this year trying to broker a ceasefire and hostage release in Gaza but the talks repeatedly sputtered to a halt . Still, any halt to the fighting in Lebanon is expected to reduce the likelihood of war between Israel and Iran, which backs both Hezbollah and Hamas and exchanged direct fire with Israel on two occasions earlier this year. Israel says it will ‘attack with might’ if Hezbollah breaks truce Netanyahu presented the ceasefire proposal to Cabinet ministers after a televised address in which he listed a series of accomplishments against Israel’s enemies across the region. He said a ceasefire with Hezbollah would further isolate Hamas in Gaza and allow Israel to focus on its main enemy, Iran, which backs both groups. “If Hezbollah breaks the agreement and tries to rearm, we will attack,” he said. “For every violation, we will attack with might.” The ceasefire deal calls for a two-month initial halt in fighting and would require Hezbollah to end its armed presence in a broad swath of southern Lebanon, while Israeli troops would return to their side of the border. Thousands of additional Lebanese troops and U.N. peacekeepers would deploy in the south, and an international panel headed by the United States would monitor all sides’ compliance. But implementation remains a major question mark. Israel has demanded the right to act should Hezbollah violate its obligations. Lebanese officials have rejected writing that into the proposal. Biden said Israel reserved the right to quickly resume operations in Lebanon if Hezbollah breaks the terms of the truce, but that the deal "was designed to be a permanent cessation of hostilities.” Netanyahu’s office said Israel appreciated the U.S. efforts in securing the deal but “reserves the right to act against every threat to its security.” Hezbollah has said it accepts the proposal, but a senior official with the group said Tuesday that it had not seen the agreement in its final form. “After reviewing the agreement signed by the enemy government, we will see if there is a match between what we stated and what was agreed upon by the Lebanese officials,” Mahmoud Qamati, deputy chair of Hezbollah’s political council, told the Al Jazeera news network. “We want an end to the aggression, of course, but not at the expense of the sovereignty of the state.” of Lebanon, he said. “Any violation of sovereignty is refused.” Warplanes bombard Beirut and its southern suburbs Even as Israeli, U.S, Lebanese and international officials have expressed growing optimism over a ceasefire, Israel has continued its campaign in Lebanon, which it says aims to cripple Hezbollah’s military capabilities. An Israeli strike on Tuesday leveled a residential building in the central Beirut district of Basta — the second time in recent days warplanes have hit the crowded area near the city’s downtown. At least seven people were killed and 37 wounded, according to Lebanon's Health Ministry. Strikes on Beirut's southern suburbs killed at least one person and wounded 13, it said. Three people were killed in a separate strike in Beirut and three in a strike on a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon. Lebanese state media said another 10 people were killed in the eastern Baalbek province. Israel says it targets Hezbollah fighters and their infrastructure. Israel also struck a building in Beirut's bustling commercial district of Hamra for the first time, hitting a site that is around 400 meters (yards) from Lebanon’s Central Bank. There were no reports of casualties. The Israeli military said it struck targets in Beirut and other areas linked to Hezbollah's financial arm. The evacuation warnings covered many areas, including parts of Beirut that previously have not been targeted. The warnings, coupled with fear that Israel was ratcheting up attacks before a ceasefire, sent residents fleeing. Traffic was gridlocked, and some cars had mattresses tied to them. Dozens of people, some wearing their pajamas, gathered in a central square, huddling under blankets or standing around fires as Israeli drones buzzed loudly overhead. Hezbollah, meanwhile, kept up its rocket fire, triggering air raid sirens across northern Israel. Israeli military spokesman Avichay Adraee issued evacuation warnings for 20 buildings in Beirut's southern suburbs, where Hezbollah has a major presence, as well as a warning for the southern town of Naqoura where the U.N. peacekeeping mission, UNIFIL, is headquartered. UNIFIL spokesperson Andrea Tenenti told The Associated Press that peacekeepers will not evacuate. Israeli forces reach Litani River in southern Lebanon The Israeli military also said its ground troops clashed with Hezbollah forces and destroyed rocket launchers in the Slouqi area on the eastern end of the Litani River, a few kilometers (miles) from the Israeli border. Under the ceasefire deal, Hezbollah would be required to move its forces north of the Litani, which in some places is about 30 kilometers (20 miles) north of the border. Hezbollah began firing into northern Israel, saying it was showing support for the Palestinians, a day after Hamas carried out its Oct. 7, 2023, attack on southern Israel, triggering the Gaza war. Israel returned fire on Hezbollah, and the two sides have been exchanging barrages ever since. Israel escalated its campaign of bombardment in mid-September and later sent troops into Lebanon, vowing to put an end to Hezbollah fire so tens of thousands of evacuated Israelis could return to their homes. More than 3,760 people have been killed by Israeli fire in Lebanon the past 13 months, many of them civilians, according to Lebanese health officials. The bombardment has driven 1.2 million people from their homes. Israel says it has killed more than 2,000 Hezbollah members. Hezbollah fire has forced some 50,000 Israelis to evacuate in the country’s north, and its rockets have reached as far south in Israel as Tel Aviv. At least 75 people have been killed, more than half of them civilians. More than 50 Israeli soldiers have died in the ground offensive in Lebanon. ___ Chehayeb and Mroue reported from Beirut.
