Five Marines had been rescued from the crash site and flown to a hospital in Darwin in a «serious condition», the US officials said, while Australian police said they were triaging the rest of the injured crew at the scene. «There were a total of 23 personnel on board,» US military officials said in a statement. «Three have been confirmed deceased while five others were transported to Royal Darwin Hospital in a serious condition.» Rescue efforts were complicated by the location of the crash — the remote and sparsely populated Melville Island about 60 kilometres (37 miles) north of the Australian mainland. «Recovery efforts are ongoing,» US officials said, adding that an investigation into the cause of the incident had been launched. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese described the incident as «tragic» and «regrettable» but stressed that authorities were still trying to piece together what happened. «We want to make sure that any information that is provided is absolutely accurate,» he told reporters.

Europe will be particularly affected. Heat waves of the kind we are currently experiencing are particularly deadly for the elderly, the sick and the poor, the researchers said. The 2003 heat wave, which saw temperatures in Europe reach 47.5 degrees Celsius, was one of the worst natural disasters of recent decades, claiming an estimated 45,000 to 70,000 victims in the space of a few weeks, they said. The researchers from ETH Zurich in Switzerland found that such heat waves could become the new norm in the coming years. Since 2013, they have been systematically collecting data on daily heat-related excess mortality for 748 cities and communities in 47 countries in Europe, Southeast Asia, Latin America, the US and Canada. The researchers used this dataset to calculate the relationship between the average daily temperature and mortality for all 748 locations. From this, they were able to establish each location's ideal temperature, where excess mortality is at its lowest.

Saurabh Mukherjea, Founder, Marcellus Investment Managers, says “the positive trigger is the China play because the scale of China's unwind is such that I find it hard to believe that it will not trigger broader connections in commodity prices and then on to on to inflationary numbers both for America and for India. The negative one in India's case is that we have got so many elections ahead of us. We got five assembly elections through the winter and then obviously the big one in the summer.” What could be the trigger now for the market? Earnings are good. Inflation is benign. Macro will keep on getting ups and downs here but in general is steady. Flows have been decent. The outlook by corporate India is not that bad. So for markets to move higher, what is next?If I have to pick one positive trigger and one negative trigger, the positive trigger is the China play because the scale of China's unwind is such that I find it hard to believe that it will not trigger broader connections in commodity prices and then on to on to inflationary numbers both for America and for India.
