Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.

Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened up 80-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 41,448
on turnover of $12.8-billion N-T.

The market rebouded on Thursday after losing ground for five consecutive
sessions following a solid earning's report from Nvidia, which lifted
investor interest in tech stocks.

Taiwan targets 100,000 monthly drone output and export growth
The Ministry of Economic Affairs says the island's drone industry is expected
to expand significantly (顯著地) by 2030.

According to the ministry's Industrial Development Administration, Taiwan's
drone output value grew 2.5-fold last year to 12.9-billion N-T under a
government program to develop the unmanned vehicle sector.

The administration says current monthly drone production capacity is about
15,000 units, but the industry can quickly scale-up as demand increases,

This means capacity is projected to exceed 100,000 units per month by 2030
and 50-per cent of that total will be exported.

Exports of Taiwan-made drones currently account for just over 20-per cent.

The top buyers are the Czech Republic, Poland and the United States.

Elderly anteater missing from Taipei Zoo
The Taipei Zoo is asking for public help in finding a lesser anteater that
escaped from its enclosure (圍起來的區域) earlier in the week.

According to the zoo, the anteater has not been seen since Monday and 65
staff members have been searching for the 12-year-old animal.

She was last seen on surveillance cameras around 6:55PM on Monday near a
visitor walkway in a bromeliad garden.

Zookeepers are speculating that a banana tree inside the enclosure may have
snapped under the animal's weight while she was climbing, creating a "bridge"
to an adjacent artificial rock formation, allowing her to escape.

The zoo says lesser anteaters are nocturnal and tend to hide in dense
vegetation during the day, which makes the search efforts difficult.

The searches so far have been focused on the zoo's rainforest zone, nearby
trails, and hillsides around the giant panda exhibit.

Israel Releases Gaza Flotilla Activists
Israel says it has released and deported hundreds of activists who took part
in a flotilla attempting to breach Israel's naval blockade (海上封鎖) of Gaza.

About 420 activists placed on a flight to Turkey landed Thursday in Istanbul.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry said all foreign activists had been deported.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the deportations after criticizing
Israel's national security minister for taunting detained activists.

The flotilla, with over 50 boats, left from Turkey to draw attention to
Gaza's conditions.

US House to vote on limiting Trump's Iran war power
The US House of Representatives is expected to vote on legislation that would
severely (程度很深，嚴重) limit president Donald Trump’s ability to continue to wage
war against Iran.

A similar war powers resolution passed the Senate earlier this week.

Nick Harper reports from Washington.

Mexico US Homeland Security Sec Visiting
Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum said that she and the U.S. Homeland
Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin agreed to maintain bilateral cooperation
rooted in mutual respect.

Mullin's two-day Mexico visit follows tensions over the deaths of two CIA
agents at Mexico’s northern border and U.S. indictments against 10 Mexican
officials.

Sheinbaum's administration has emphasized cooperation while maintaining
sovereignty.

Mullin, who assumed the position in March after Kristi Noem’s departure
(離開), is also scheduled to meet with Mexico’s Security Cabinet.

That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _____.
