Settlers vow to defy army ban in Hebron rally plan
Defiant Jewish settlers said they would rally in Hebron despite an army ban, after clashes with soldiers around the city. Israel's foreign minister suggested settlers may be driven from the West Bank town. Police arrested six and detained five for firing and resistance at army barriers. Palestinian groups opposed to peace talks pledged continued struggle for destruction of Israel and control of Jerusalem after talks with Muammar Gaddafi. Berliners bid farewell to the four occupying powers, marking the first such ceremony as Western allies depart.

Vietnam presses gradual state asset reform aims for market shift
Vietnam proceeds with a measured overhaul of state owned enterprises and ministries, merging thousands of troubled firms into larger groups while trimming oversight. Officials say the goal is to withdraw the government from active management within two years, spurring privatizations, consolidations, and renewed growth amid a shifting economy. The new bankruptcy and commercial codes, set to take effect July 1, underpin the restructuring and attract foreign investment.
