BEIJING Shon Coleman Youth Jersey , June 2 (Xinhua) -- The national observatory on Friday issued a blue alert, the lowest in a four-tier weather warning system, for rainstorms in southern China over the coming days.


From Friday to Saturday, heavy rain is expected in some parts of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and the provinces of Jiangxi, Guangdong, Fujian and Yunnan, the National Meteorological Center (NMC) said in a statement.


Some areas will see torrential rain accompanied by thunder or hail, according to the NMC.

RIYADH， March 12 (Xinhua) -- The Saudi Interior Ministry announced on Sunday that police forces killed another fugitive during a raid on hideouts of terrorists in the eastern Province of Al Awamiah.


The ministry said in its statement that the raid targeted old， deserted houses in the area which terrorists were using as shelters.


Sunday's police raid was in response to the heavy shooting on Saturday which targetted police personnel， during which police forces retaliated， injuring the fugitive Waleed Talal Ali Al Orayed， who died later at the hospital.


Saudi Arabia has recently taken serious measures against violent Shiite citizens in the Eastern Province to end escalating attacks against citizens and police personnel.


Saudi youth are demanding increased rights for the Shiite minority population in the country， considered the center of the world's Sunni teachings.


Furthermore， on Friday， police forces killed a Saudi fugitive wanted for his involvement in several security crossfire cases whilst evading arrest in the province.


Moreover， police forces are still searching for the shooters of the former municipal councilor who sustained gunshot wounds in his back and leg the previous week.


In addition to the violent Shiite youth in the Eastern province， the country is facing increasing critical attacks from the Islamic State (IS) militant groups's sleeping cells， responsible for countless bloody detonations throughout the country.




BRUSSELS， Feb. 13 (Xinhua) -- Economic growth in the 19-country eurozone is expected to speed up due to better-than-expected performance despite uncertainties sparked by Brexit this year and headwinds from its transatlantic ties， it was announced Monday.


The gross domestic product (GDP) across the single currency bloc was projected to stand at 1.6 percent this year and 1.8 percent for 2018， said the European Commission， the bloc's executive arm， in its winter economic forecast.


The readings were slightly revised up from the previous economic forecast published three months ago， in which the eurozone's GDP was predicted to grow by 1.5 percent and 1.7 percent in 2017 and 2018 respectively.


The optimism was generated from "better-than-expected performance in the second half of 2016 and a rather robust start into 2017，" said the Commission in a statement.


The wider 28-country European Union (EU) would also follow a similar pattern and was forecast at 1.8 percent this year and next. In November's forecast， the GDP growth was expected to be at 1.6 percent in 2017 and 1.8 percent in 2018.


However， the Commission warned that risks surrounding these projections were "exceptionally large" and， although both upside and downside risks had increased， the overall balance remained tilted to the downside.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's "mana" is growing.


The movie star and girlfriend Lauren Hashian shared the news Monday that they're expecting another baby girl.




Johnson made the announcement in an adorable Instagram post starring his and Hashian's first daughter together, Jasmine Lia.


"(We) are boundlessly grateful for this blessing as this spring we’ll welcome our second baby. Plus, Jazzy is excited to boss around and protect her lil’ sis," the Instagram caption says. "And once again, big daddy is completely surrounded by beautiful estrogen and loving, powerful female mana. All girls. One dude. And a boy dog. I wouldn’t have it any other way."


Johnson, 45, and Hashian, 33, welcomed Jasmine almost two years ago, with another precious Instagram post.


Christmas came early! Within minutes of being born she was laying on daddy's chest. And being a grateful man takes on a whole new meaning... Thank you guys so much for the awesome congratulatory wishes and love you've been sending @laurenhashianofficial and myself. We're extremely grateful. Kinda crazy but in this cool and powerful skin to skin bonding moment with my newborn baby Jasmine, I had just one wish I asked the universe... Give me the strength to be a better man today than I was yesterday. If I can accomplish that, then I'd have a good shot at being a great father. To all you young men out there who will be fathers one day, the goal of "being better" will never steer you wrong. Trust me I've been down this road. Something else that'll never steer you wrong is "walking thru the fire" with your baby's mama. I was right there during labor, helping her breathe, every highly intens.
