Inauguration in sight, Trump
continues Twitter assault
NEW YORK — His inauguration days away, President-elect
Donald Trump is continuing to lash out at critics in the intelli-
gence community and Democrats in Congress who are vowing to
skip his swearing-in ceremony.
The tough-talking Republican questioned whether the CIA
director himself was “the leaker of fake news” in a Sunday night
tweet.
The extraordinary criticism from the incoming president came
hours after CIA chief John Brennan charged that Trump lacks
a full understanding of the threat Moscow poses to the United
States, delivering a public lecture to the president-elect that fur-
ther highlighted the bitter state of Trump’s relations with Ameri-
can intelligence agencies.
“Now that he’s going to have an opportunity to do something
for our national security as opposed to talking and tweeting, he’s
going to have tremendous responsibility to make sure that U.S.
and national security interests are protected,” Brennan said on
“Fox News Sunday,” warning that the president-elect’s impulsiv-
ity could be dangerous.
The president-elect remained behind closed doors in his Man-
hattan high rise for the weekend as his team worked to answer
questions about his plans at home and abroad once he’s sworn
into office on Friday.
Revelers, rally-goers to clog
DC for Trump’s inauguration
WASHINGTON — Hundreds of thousands of people are
expected to clog the nation’s capital for Donald Trump’s inau-
guration and a major demonstration the day after, but how many
will actually arrive to party or protest is an open question.
Officials estimate that 800,000 to 900,000 people will be pres-
ent Friday for the inauguration, a celebration that takes over the
city, closing roads, taxing the city’s Metro transit system and
making getting around difficult. Trump himself has promised
“massive crowds” but just what that will mean is unclear.
Hundreds of thousands of others are expected Saturday for the
Women’s March on Washington.
Trump showed he could draw crowds during the campaign,
but his supporters weren’t so quick to make plans to be in Wash-
ington for his inauguration.
Elliott Ferguson, the president of Destination DC, the city’s
convention and tourism bureau, said that before Election Day
hotels had more events tentatively planned for a Hillary Clin-
ton victory than a Donald Trump one. And when Trump won, the
“level of enthusiasm” and demand for hotel rooms did not imme-
diately reach that of past recent inaugurations, he said.
Oman says it accepts 10
Guantanamo Bay inmates
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Oman said Monday it
accepted 10 inmates from the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay
ahead of President Barack Obama leaving office, part of his
efforts to shrink the facility he promised to close.
There was no immediate word from the U.S. Defense Depart-
ment about the transfer.
Oman’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement carried by the
state-run Oman News Agency that it had accepted the prisoners
at Obama’s request. It did not name the prisoners.
Omani and U.S. military officials did not immediately respond
to a request for comment from The Associated Press.
The sultanate of Oman, on the eastern edge of the Arabian
Peninsula, previously accepted 10 Guantanamo prisoners from
Yemen in January 2016. Oman also took another six in June
2015. Meanwhile, Oman’s neighbor Saudi Arabia took four pris-
oners on Jan. 5 and the United Arab Emirates took 15 prisoners
in the largest-single transfer during Obama’s administration on
Aug. 15.
South Korea seeks arrest of
Samsung scion in graft scandal
SEOUL, South Korea — In a departure from the leniency
typically given South Korean big businesses, prosecutors on
Monday requested the arrest of the de facto head of Samsung
Electronics, the country’s most valuable company, in an influ-
ence-peddling scandal that has toppled the country’s president.
Lee Jae-yong, the 48-year-old vice chairman at Samsung Elec-
tronics, faces allegations of embezzlement, of lying under oath
during a parliamentary hearing and of offering a bribe of 43 bil-
lion won ($36 million) to a long-time friend of impeached Pres-
ident Park Geun-hye, according to Lee Kyu-chul, a spokesman

Abortion rights activists celebrate during a rally at the Su-
preme Court in Washington, D.C., last June. The tens of thou-
sands of women flocking to Washington for a march on the
day after Donald Trump’s inauguration come packing a mul-
titude of agendas, but are united in their loathing for Trump.
for a special prosecutors’ team investigating the political scandal.
It will surprise many that prosecutors requested the arrest of
the man who symbolizes the future of South Korea’s most import-
ant chaebol, as family-controlled conglomerates are known. Such
leaders tend to be treated as vital for the national economy.
Samsung Electronics is South Korea’s most successful com-
pany and a source of pride for many who equate its huge global
success with national prestige. The company has gone through
a rough patch in the past half-year, however, after its latest pre-
mium smartphone was found to be prone to catching fire.
Prosecutors understood worries that Lee’s arrest could hurt
the economy, but “we believed that it was even more important
to carry out justice,” Lee, the spokesman at the special prosecu-
tors’ team, told reporters.
Kyrgyzstan Health Ministry
says cargo plane crash kills 37
BISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan — A cargo plane crashed Monday in
a residential area just outside the main airport in Kyrgyzstan, kill-
ing at least 37 people, the Emergency Situations Ministry said on
Monday.
The Turkish Boeing 747 crashed just outside the Manas air-
port, south of the capital Bishkek, killing people in the residential
area adjacent to the airport as well as those on the plane.
Reports of the death toll on Monday ranged from 37 people
according to emergency officials in the Central Asian nation, to
31 reported by the presidential press office which also said rescue
teams had recovered parts of nine bodies. Fifteen people includ-
ing six children have been hospitalized.
Images from the scene showed the nose of the plane stuck
inside a brick house and large fragments of debris scattered
around.
Several dozen private houses cluster just outside the metal
fence separating the cottages from the runway. Manas has been
considerably expanded since the United States began to operate a
military installation at the Manas airport, using it primarily for its
operations in Afghanistan. American troops vacated the base and
handed it over to the Kyrgyz military in 2014.
Civilian casualties mount as
Iraqi forces advance in Mosul
CHANGU NARAYAN, Nepal — When a 7.8 magnitude
earthquake rocked Nepal last year, villagers in Changu Narayan
ran up the steep rocky path that cuts through their town to their
renowned temple. Seeing the piles of rubble, they figured their
lives were over.
Less than two years later, the community is cleaning up their
World Heritage Site themselves, and one of the world’s leading
architects has taken on the recovery as his pet project.
“I see now our world coming back alive,” said Gyan Bahadur
Bhadal, 61, one of many villagers who share responsibility for
the temple’s upkeep.
In a country where locals say there are more gods than people
and more temples than houses, Changu Narayan still manages to
stand out among the ancient holy places. It’s believed to be the
oldest Hindu place of worship in the country, its wooden walls
intricately carved with hundreds of deities, perched atop a steep
hill overlooking the Kathmandu Valley.
The 5th century temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, who
locals say appeared there once. His image, in about a dozen incar-
nations, is carved into struts that hold up the roof. Stone lions
with eagle heads guard the doors. Inside has long been a mystery:
Only priests enter the two-tiered pagoda, and they don’t explore.
Academics race to save rare
colonial documents in Cuba
HAVANA — An American team of academics is racing to
preserve millions of Cuban historical documents before they are
lost to the elements and poor storage conditions.
Many of the documents shed light on the slave trade, an inte-
gral part of Cuba’s colonial history that was intertwined with that
of the United States.
David Lafevor, a history professor at the University of Texas
at Arlington, and his brother Matthew, a geography professor
at the University of Alabama, have worked since 2005 to make
computer copies of millions of documents mouldering in damp
storage spaces on the island.
Their latest project is a partnership between the British Library
Foundation and Vanderbilt University to capture almost 2 million
documents in digital form, a treasure trove stretching back to the
mid-16th century of documents about early island life and the
slave trade.
David Lafevor said there is nothing like Cuba’s documents in the
U.S., where slaves were considered possessions, not human beings.

IRBIL, Iraq — The mortar attack that left Um Yousef blind in
one eye and killed two of her children came on the same day that
Iraqi forces retook her neighborhood in eastern Mosul from the
Islamic State group.
“We were supposed to be liberated that day,” she said from
her hospital bed in the nearby city of Irbil. She asked to only be
identified by a nickname to protect her family members still liv-
ing inside Mosul.
Doctors at West Irbil Emergency Hospital say cases like Um
Yousef’s are on the rise as Iraqi forces continue to make gains
against IS in their effort to take control of Mosul.
The blast of the attack that wounded Um Yousef ripped open
her daughter’s stomach, killing her instantly. Her son Yousef
was hit in the head with shrapnel and he slowly bled out as they
waited for hours for help. As Um Yousef was evacuated by the
Iraqi military, her husband stayed behind in Mosul to bury the
two children.
“I called him by phone, but he just cries, saying nothing,” she
