Religious US broadcaster Pat Robertson dies at 93

Evangelical Christian leader Pat Robertson, who ran for president as a Republican, has died at the age of 93.

He was one of the driving forces of a movement to increase the influence of the religious right in US politics.

The news was first announced on the Christian Broadcasting Network.

Robertson founded the network in 1960 and helped grow it into a cable media empire.

For decades, Robertson hosted - and gained national prominence through - a talk show on the network called the 700 Club, which combined religious news and political commentary with light entertainment.

He also founded the Christian Coalition, the organisation that grew to be a pivotal player in Republican politics starting in the 1980s.

It provided endorsements and financial and organisational support to candidates who echoed their views on hotbutton social issues like abortion, religious liberty and “traditional” values.

In 1988, Robertson campaigned for the Republican presidential nomination. He finished second in the Iowa Caucuses, behind Kansas Senator Robert Dole, with the the support of the state’s large evangelical community. His campaign faltered after eventual nominee and President George HW Bush won the New Hampshire primary.

Despite the defeat, Robertson’s campaign demonstrated that evangelical Christians were a growing force in Republican politics. The evangelical leader would go on to become a kingmaker in Republican politics for decades thereafter. (BBC)

“We don’t know what kind of destruction there is, we don’t know what the Ukrainian side is going to do next,” Mr Peskov added.

On Wednesday, Russian foreign ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said it would take between one and three months to repair the damage caused to the pipeline, but Industry and Trade minister Denis Manturov said on Thursday that Moscow has no access to the damaged section.

Ukraine has strenuously denied being behind the blast, and insisted that Moscow conducted the attack.

President Zelensky told reporters that the attack had occurred in a “grey zone” between territory controlled by Ukraine and Russia, and drew a distinction between the explosion and the blast at the Khakovka dam.

“It’s one story when it is the consequences of war. Yes, the Russian Federation is to blame, but those are the consequences of war,” President Zelensky said. “But [in Kakhovka], we understand that this is terrorism. They mined it in advance and did it with their own hands.”

“We see this as a completely different category,” he added.

Elsewhere, Russian prowar bloggers have suggested that a long awaited Ukrainian counteroffensive has begun in the southern region of Zaporizhzhia.

Andrey Rudenko, a correspondent for Russian state television channel Rossiya 24, claimed that Ukrainian tanks had launched attacks on Russian lines in the region and said Russian forces had repelled the attack.

And Vladimir Rogov, the Russian-installed governor of occupied Zaporzhzhia told state TV that he believed there had been an “attempt at a full-scale offensive for three days, even four” in the region

The heat index in Puerto Rico reached as high as 125 degrees Fahrenheit this week, according to the National Weather Service, which says the region will continue facing extreme heat through the weekend.

Monday and Tuesday featured record-breaking weather for the island this time of year, as temperatures officially hit 95 degrees Fahrenheit, reported NBC News. The heat index, however — which describes how temperatures affect the body and takes into account both heat and humidity — peaked at 125 in the northern town of Donado.

Meteorologists are saying the heightened conditions are a result of a combination of weather, ocean patterns and man-made climate change.

“There’s emerging science indicating that there’s a connection to climate change here — the heat wave in Puerto Rico right now has been made at least five times more likely to happen due to man-made global warming,” said John Morales, a meteorologist at ClimaData and a hurricane specialist for NBC Miami.

A low-pressure system from Florida and a high-pressure system near Puerto Rico has formed a kind of “heat dome” and is remaining stuck, hovering over the region, according to Morales.
