5A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • MONDAY, OCTOBER 10, 2016 WORLD IN BRIEF Associated Press Analysis: Backed in a corner, Trump clawed through debate WASHINGTON — It was a presidential debate, wounded animal edition. Bleeding supporters and running out of time, Donald Trump fought and clawed his way through his second debate with Dem- ocrat Hillary Clinton. In the process, he gave his base of die-hard supporters the performance they’ve long wanted, but offered little for the broader audience of Americans still resistant to a Trump presidency. In a 90-minute encounter illed with insult and interruption, Trump employed every tactic available to try to move past the campaign-rocking video that had sent his bid into freefall 48 hours earlier. He showed little contrition and no restraint. He diverted attention to the sex scandals in Bill Clinton’s past. He went stunningly personal, claiming to see “tremendous hate” in his opponent’s heart, referring to her as “the devil” and a liar and declaring that, if elected, he would put her in jail. His maneuvering spared no one— not even his Republican vice presidential nominee or his own party. “I am so disappointed in congressmen, including Republi- cans, for allowing this to happen,” he said, criticizing GOP law- makers for their handling of the investigation into Clinton’s han- dling of classiied email. Twitter: 17M-plus tweets sent about the debate, most ever ST. LOUIS — Twitter says Sunday’s presidential debate was the most tweeted ever, with more than 17 million tweets related to the forum sent. The social media platform says the question of Republican nominee Donald Trump’s treatment of women dominated the online conversation. Trump’s disagreement with running mate Mike Pence over Syria was the top tweeted moment. That’s followed by Trump saying he was a gentlemen and his threatening to jail Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton if he’s elected president. Clinton walked away from the debate with 25,000 new Twit- ter followers. Trump gained 16,000. As has become the norm, the debate has spawned some trend- ing hashtags. Trump’s answers to questions are being mocked under #MuslimsReportStuff and #LockerRoomTalkIn5Words. Google says the top fact-check question for Clinton revolves around Benghazi. For Trump, users want to know more about his comments on women. US, Canada ready to talk about Columbia River Treaty SPOKANE, Wash. — The United States is ready to start talks with Canada to update the Columbia River Treaty. U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell made that announcement Friday after talking with Secretary of State John Kerry. Cantwell has for years been urging the State Department to begin the negotiation process. The Washington Democrat says updating the Columbia River Treaty will present new economic opportunities and provide a new focus on protecting the river’s ecosystem. The treaty has not been updated since it was irst ratiied in 1964. Canada had refused to begin talks until the United States inalized its negotiating parameters. The treaty governs operations of hydroelectric dams and res- ervoirs on the Columbia River.

Throughout Haiti’s southwestern peninsula, people were digging themselves out from the wreckage of the storm, which killed hundreds, destroyed tens of thousands of houses, left at least 350,000 people in need assistance and raised concerns of a surge in cholera cases. Afterefects of Matthew to linger in North Carolina FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. — Matthew was long gone from the Atlantic coast early today, but the devastation lingered, most notably in North Carolina, where looded cities tried to dry out and those downstream kept a close eye on rising rivers. The looding disaster is forecast to slowly unfold over the next several days as all that rain — more than a foot in places — lows into rivers and downstream, likely causing more inunda- tion in many of the same places devastated by a similar deluge from Hurricane Floyd in 1999. Thousands of people found themselves suddenly trapped in homes and cars during the torrential rains. Rescuers in Coast Guard helicopters plucked some of them from rooftops and used military vehicles to reach others, including a woman who held on to a tree for three hours after her car was overrun by lood waters. The storm killed more than 500 people in Haiti and at least 18 in the U.S. — nearly half of them in North Carolina. Most were swept away by lood waters. North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory said Sunday that author- ities were searching for ive people and feared they may ind more victims. Aid arrives in Haiti, but despair grows in cut-of towns Missiles ired from rebel-held Yemen land near US destroyer JEREMIE, Haiti — Helicopters are ferrying in food and medicine to devastated southwestern Haiti, but almost a week after Hurricane Matthew’s assault life here is still far from nor- mal and desperation is growing in communities where aid has yet to arrive. Power is still out, water and food are scarce, and oficials say that young men in villages along the road between the hard- hit cities of Les Cayes and Jeremie are putting up blockades of rocks and broken branches to halt convoys of vehicles bringing relief supplies. “They are seeing these convoys coming through with sup- plies and they aren’t stopping. They are hungry and thirsty and some are getting angry,” said Dony St. Germain, an oficial with El Shaddai Ministries International. A convoy carrying food, water and medications was attacked by gunmen in a remote valley where there had been a bad mud- slide, said Frednel Kedler, the coordinator for the Civil Protec- tion Agency in Grand-Anse department. He said authorities will DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Two missiles ired from rebel-held territory in Yemen landed near an American destroyer passing by in the Red Sea, the U.S. Navy said today, the second such launch targeting ships in the crucial international waterway in recent days. The missile launches Sunday came as a ballistic missile ired from Yemen apparently targeted a Saudi air base near the Mus- lim holy city of Mecca, the deepest strike yet into the kingdom by Shiite rebels and their allies. Yemen’s Shiite rebels known as Houthis and their allies offered no reason for the launches, though they came after a Sau- di-led airstrike targeting a funeral in Yemen’s capital killed over 140 people and wounded 525 on Saturday. In a statement, the Navy said no American sailors were injured and no damage was done to the USS Mason, an Arleigh Burke class of guided missile destroyer whose home port is Nor- folk, Virginia. Lt. Ian McConnaughey, a spokesman for U.S. Navy Forces Central Command, said today that it’s unclear if the USS Mason was speciically targeted, though the missiles were ired in its direction over an hour’s time period, starting at around 7 p.m. An American defense oficial said the USS Mason used onboard defensive measures after the irst missile was ired, but it wasn’t clear if that caused the missile to splash harmlessly into the sea. The destroyer at the time of the missile ire was north of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, which serves as a gateway for oil tankers headed to Europe through the Suez Canal, the oficial said. Amid Syrian attacks, medical agency pleads for Aleppo access BEIRUT — An international medical aid agency is pleading for access to treat the wounded in the eastern, rebel-held parts of Syria’s Aleppo even as government forces press on with their offensive to retake that part of the city. Doctors Without Borders, which supports eight hospitals in Aleppo’s besieged eastern quarters, says only 35 doctors are left serving in eastern Aleppo, amid an estimated population of 275,000. The organization, which also goes by its French acro- nym MSF, said today that the medical workers in Aleppo are exhausted and facilities overstretched and facing an impending fuel shortage. Syrian government forces and their allies have kept eastern Aleppo under siege since July. The U.N. has warned that the Aleppo bombardment by Syrian and Russian warplanes could leave thousands dead by the year’s end. Taiwan president says won’t bow to Beijing, calls for talks TAIPEI, Taiwan — Taiwan’s new president Tsai Ing-wen said today her self-ruled island will not bow to Beijing’s pressure and that China should recognize her government’s existence and engage with it in talks, in remarks likely to further anger China. Speaking in a National Day address, Tsai acknowledged that ties between Taiwan and China in recent months have been bumpy. “But we will not bow to pressure, and we will of course not revert to the old path of confrontation,” she said at a cer- emony outside the Presidential Ofice Building in central Tai- pei attended by 11,000 people, including more than 360 foreign guests. China should “face up to the reality” of the Taiwanese govern- ment’s existence and of the island’s democracy, Tsai said, add- ing the two sides should “sit down and talk as soon as possible.” China claims Taiwan is its own territory, to be brought under its control by force if necessary. Tsai’s election in January upended Beijing’s strategy of using economic inducements to convince Taiwanese that political uniication is not only inevita- ble but also in their best interests.
