Fear grips agriculture with China proposing hefty tariffs on pork

Fear grips agriculture with China proposing hefty tariffs on pork: American troops may have killed hundreds of Syrian forces backed by Russian mercenaries, a US army general has said. Up to 300 pro-regime fighters are thought to have died in American bombing that was launched in response to a surprise attack on a US-held base in the oil-rich Deir Ezzor region last month. The US launched artillery fire and air strikes after coming under attack on 7 February from a group which also included Russian private military contractors.
