Philippines confirms visit by alleged Bondi gunmen amid terrorism concerns

2025/12/16 14:18

MANILA, Philippines – The Philippines Bureau of Immigration said on Tuesday, December 16, that the two alleged gunmen behind the mass shooting at Sydney’s Bondi Beach traveled to the Philippines on November 1 aboard Philippine Airlines Flight PR212 from Sydney to Manila and onward to Davao.

A spokesperson for the bureau said that Sajid Akram, 50, an Indian national and Australian resident, traveled on an Indian passport, while his son Naveed Akram, 24, an Australian national, used an Australian passport. Both arrived together on that flight.

They departed on November 28 on the same flight number, PR212, from Davao via Manila back to Sydney, weeks before the assault that killed 15 people.

Bondi gunmen were inspired by Islamic State, had traveled to the Philippines, Australia police say

The attack on Sunday was Australia’s worst mass shooting in nearly 30 years, and is being investigated as an act of terrorism targeting the Jewish community.

It was not immediately clear what activities they undertook in the Philippines or whether they traveled elsewhere after landing in Davao, a city in Mindanao, a region where terrorist groups, including ISIS-linked factions, have operated.

In 2017, Islamic State-inspired militants seized parts of the southern city of Marawi and held it through five months of ground offensives and air strikes by the military.

The siege of Marawi, the country’s biggest battle since World War Two, displaced some 350,000 residents and more than 1,100 people were killed, mostly militants.

While the Armed Forces of the Philippines is validating the reports, its spokesperson said in a statement the military is closely coordinating with relevant agencies on matters involving the movements of foreign nationals and potential terrorist ties. – Rappler.com

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
