Ferry Tragedy in Northern Cyprus: A Turkish-flagged catamaran, the Filo Jet, capsized off Kyrenia/Girne with 267 people aboard, leaving at least 8 dead and 20 still missing as rescuers continue the search; survivors say the captain was urged to turn back, while authorities have arrested the captain and seven crew and ordered a three-day mourning period that includes a ban on music performances. Community Support: The Stelios Philanthropic Foundation says it will provide up to €260,000 in aid to families of confirmed victims, with €10,000 to next of kin. Arts & Culture: British comedy legend John Cleese brings his one-man show “Last Time To See Me Before I Die” to Nicosia on 10 November. Music Spotlight: New releases from New Orleans artists include The Rumble’s “Ain’t No Dying” and Dawn Richard’s latest August picks. Sport (Local Interest): Cyprus’ ambassador to Israel marks 80 years since British detention camps for Jewish refugees, while golf fans look ahead to the Walker Cup at Lahinch.
