    The United States Department of Justice has proposed new rules to allow certain firearm dealers to use the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) for conducting background checks on employees who handle firearms, as part of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act. This proposal aims to prevent firearms from reaching individuals prohibited by law from possessing them, by enabling checks on employees who might access or use firearms through their work. The rules clarify how these checks, known as Firearm Handler Background Checks (FHCs), will be conducted, including what information can trigger a "Pass" or "Did Not Pass" notice and how individuals can appeal a "Did Not Pass" result. Comments on the proposal can be submitted until January 13, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of Justice wants to let certain gun stores use a system to check if their employees are allowed to handle guns, which is like making sure everyone playing a game follows the rules so nobody gets hurt.

    The U.S. State Department has officially designated Yahya al-Sayyid Ibrahim Musa and Alaa Ali Ali Mohammed Al-Samahi as Specially Designated Global Terrorists. This decision was made under the authority of several Executive Orders aimed at targeting individuals associated with terrorism. Both individuals are recognized as leaders of Harakat Sawa'd Misr, a group whose assets have been previously blocked by the Secretary of State. The designation means their assets in the United States are frozen, but no prior notice of this action was given to them, as it was determined that such a notice could compromise the effectiveness of the restrictions.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. State Department has labeled two people, Yahya and Alaa, as bad guys who are not allowed to have their money in America because they are accused of leading a group that does harmful things. They didn't tell these people ahead of time because it might have messed up the plan to stop them.

    Simple Explanation

    Fahad did something he wasn't allowed to do: he sent guns to another country without asking for permission first. Because of this, he's not allowed to send or receive things to or from other countries for seven years.

    Derby Clerfe was convicted of conspiring to illegally export handguns from the United States to Haiti without proper licenses.

Additionally, others are prohibited from assisting Clerfe in acquiring or handling export-controlled items. Clerfe has the option to appeal this order within 45 days.

    Simple Explanation

    Derby Clerfe tried to send guns from the U.S. to Haiti, which is not allowed, so the government said he can't send anything from the U.S. to other countries for two years. Also, people can't help him try to do this, and if he thinks this is unfair, he can ask to change the decision in 45 days.

    Simple Explanation

    Azur Air, a company in Russia, has been told by the U.S. government that they can't buy or use stuff that comes from America because they didn't follow the rules, and this will last until next year unless they fix it.
