Mount Sinabung in Indonesia’s North Sumatra erupted on Tuesday unleashing a torrent of hot ash and volcanic material down its slopes. Officials advised villagers

Mount Sinabung in Indonesia&rsquo;s North Sumatra erupted on Tuesday in its first big eruption&nbsp;since August last year. The eruption&nbsp;threw&nbsp;up a torrent of hot ash and volcanic material. Officials advised villagers to stay at least 5 kilometres away from the craters mouth. No casualties were reported and air travel was not impacted by the ash cloud. One of the more than 120 active volcanoes in the region, the 8,530 feet Sinabung was dormant for centuries before erupting in 2010. It has been sporadically active since then, prone to seismic upheaval due to its location on the Pacific &lsquo;Ring of Fire&rsquo;, a horseshoe-shaped belt in the Pacific Ocean, home to the majority of the earth&rsquo;s volcanoes and earthquakes.

Meghan Markle has been awarded 4,50,000 pounds as a provisional payment towards her legal costs after she won a privacy claim against the Mail On Sunday which had printed extracts of a letter she wrote to her father. Last month, a judge at London's High Court ruled the tabloid had breached her privacy by publishing parts of the letter she wrote to her father, Thomas Markle. Furthermore, after winning the case, Markle in a statement said that the judgment was a victory for all because everyone loses when misinformation sells more than truth and when companies create their business model to profit from &ldquo;people&rsquo;s pain&rdquo;.

Australia's international borders will remain close for at least another three months till mid-June, continuing the country's self-imposed isolation to keep the coronavirus outbreak in control.

The decision comes after health officials advised the government about the Covid-19 situation overseas, including the emergence of more highly transmissible variants. Previously, Australia closed its international border early in the pandemic and it was scheduled to end on March 17, but has now been extended to June 17.

President Joe Biden said Tuesday that the US expects to take delivery of enough coronavirus vaccines for all adult Americans by the end of May, two months earlier than anticipated. The announcement comes as the White House looks to speed the production of the single-dose Johnson &amp; Johnson vaccine and accelerate the nation's plans to reach "herd immunity". Johnson &amp; Johnson has promised to deliver 100 million doses by the end of June. The Biden administration has told governors to prepare for their supplies of vaccine to continue to climb over the coming weeks. Additional doses are also heading toward a federally backed program to administer doses in more accessible retail pharmacies.

In the first Cabinet defeat, US President Joe Biden on Tuesday abandoned his plan for Neera Tanden to be White House budget director. The pullback came after a massive pushback from key senators who made it clear that were not going to vote for Tanden. The centrists on both sides of the political aisle opposed Tanden over several of her previous tweets in which she disparaged lawmakers. "I have accepted Neera Tanden's request to withdraw her name from nomination for Director of the Office of Management and Budget," Biden said in a statement. Neera Tanden would have been the first Indian-American to hold the key post.

Haji Nazir Ahmadzai, a senior adviser to the Afghan president on the Reconciliation of Political Parties and Tribes said that the peace negotiations between the Afghan government and the Taliban are a 'waste of time' as long as the radical movement fails to implement its commitment to reduce violence and implement a ceasefire. In an interview with Sputnik, Ahmadzai&nbsp;responded to why the second round of talks was delayed, saying Kabul's delegation has been in Doha for a long time, but the Taliban has been on foreign trips and have delayed talks. He further said that the escalation of violence&nbsp;by the Taliban is unacceptable to the international community and to the Afghan nation.

India came out strongly against the statement of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) on Jammu and Kashmir at the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) on Tuesday. India said the OIC has no locus standi to comment on the Kashmir issue, accusing Pakistan of "misusing the forum". India also reminded the Council that Pakistan has deliberately misused the OIC for its malicious propaganda against India, to divert attention from its own serious violations of human rights. This comes almost a week after India rejected Pakistan minister Shireen Mazari's criticism of the human rights situation in Jammu and Kashmir.

Director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has warned that the US is at risk of losing its recent vaccine progress in the battle against the Covid-19 pandemic with the new variants posing a 'real threat'. The spread of highly contagious coronavirus variants is threatening to fuel a "potential fourth surge of cases" in the US, CDC&nbsp;director Rochelle Walensky&nbsp;said. She said she was concerned by recent Covid-19 data. Health experts are particularly concerned about a few which appear to be more contagious, including those first detected in the UK, South Africa and Brazil. Walenksy emphasised that these variants are a threat to the people and the progress against the virus. Additionally, the CDC predicted that the highly contagious B.1.1.7 variant first found in the UK will become the dominant strain in the US this month.

Myanmar's overthrown civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi has been hit with two new criminal charges when she appeared in court via video link on Monday.&nbsp;Myanmar military took over power a month ago&nbsp;triggering massive protests. Suu Kyi&nbsp;was already facing criminal charges for possessing unlicensed walkie-talkies, as well as violating coronavirus restrictions by staging a campaign event during last year's election. She is now also accused of a violation of communications laws as well as intent to incite public unrest, her lawyer Khin Maung Zaw said. The lawyer added that there was no certainty of how many more cases Suu Kyi&nbsp;will face further. Suu Kyi has been detained since February 1, and her appearance came as demonstrators took to the streets again across the country, protesting against the military coup and demanding the release of all the detained political leaders.

The Biden administration indicated that it has still not decided on ending the Trump-era ban on issuing new H-1B visas. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas&nbsp;has asserted that its top priority is the acute needs of individuals fleeing persecution. Earlier in January, former US President Donald Trump had extended the ban on issuing new H-1B visas till March 31 arguing that the country is facing a very high unemployment rate. After commencing office, Biden has revoked dozens of the executive orders of Trump. However, the one that imposed a ban on issuing H-1B has still not been lifted and it will expire on March 31, if Biden does not issue a fresh proclamation.
