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.

try to reach marooned and desperate communities west of Jer-
emie today.
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.
