Today in News History
On July 13, several notable moments in the history of News stand out. In 1909, Souphanouvong, 1st President of Laos (died 1995) was born. In 1913, Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller, Danish businessman (died 2012) was born. In 1922, Helmy Afify Abd El-Bar, Egyptian military commander (died 2011) was born. In 1961, Khalid Mahmood, Pakistani-English engineer and politician was born. In 1977, Somalia declares war on Ethiopia, starting the Ogaden War. In 1985, The Live Aid benefit concert takes place in London and Philadelphia, as well as other venues such as Moscow and Sydney. In 2003, French DGSE personnel abort an operation to rescue Íngrid Betancourt from FARC rebels in Colombia, causing a political scandal when details are leaked to the press. In 2008, Battle of Wanat begins when Taliban and al-Qaeda guerrillas attack US Army and Afghan National Army troops in Afghanistan. The U.S. deaths were, at that time, the most in a single battle since the beginning of operations in 2001. In 2011, United Nations Security Council Resolution 1999 is adopted, which admits South Sudan to member status of United Nations. In 2013, Typhoon Soulik kills at least nine people and affects more than 160 million in East China and Taiwan.
