Diplomacy, Rockets, and Fugitives: News Roundup

Mexican navy ships arrived in Havana, Cuba on Thursday, carrying humanitarian aid, as Mexico navigates a delicate diplomatic situation with the United States. The aid delivery, which included much-needed supplies but not oil, occurred amid an economic crisis on the island nation, according to The Guardian.

The Isla Holbox, a logistics ship, and the Papaloapan, a more aggressive-looking vessel, docked in Havana. This aid comes as the former Trump administration stoked the island nation's economic crisis.

In other news, a Slovakian fugitive was arrested in Milan on Friday after attending the Winter Olympics to watch his national ice hockey team compete, Euronews reported. The 44-year-old man, wanted for thefts in commercial establishments since 2010, was tracked down by police after checking into accommodation near the city.

Meanwhile, the heavy version of Europe's Ariane 6 rocket launched for the first time Thursday, carrying 32 spacecraft to low-Earth orbit for Amazon's satellite broadband constellation, Ars Technica reported. The rocket lifted off from the Guiana Space Center at 11:45 am EST, generating over 3.4 million pounds of thrust.

Also, a Trump administration official overruled FDA scientists to reject Moderna's mRNA flu vaccine, according to reports from Stat News and The Wall Street Journal. Vinay Prasad, the top vaccine regulator, made the decision despite a team of agency scientists being ready to review the vaccine. A memo objecting to Prasad's rejection was reportedly written by a top career official.

Finally, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un appears to be taking steps to name his daughter, Kim Ju Ae, as his official successor, Sky News reported. The teenager, thought to be around 13 years old, has been increasingly visible at events with her father and is reportedly providing input on policy matters.
