This comes as Malta hosted a vote as it assumes the presidency of the United Nations Security Council for the month of April.

The vote saw the United States blocking a resolution which would have recognised a Palestinian state. 12 members of the council voted in favour, with the UK and Switzerland abstaining.

The US veto was crucified by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, saying the act was ‘unfair, immoral and unjustified’ as it ‘defies the will of the international community’.

Meanwhile, Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz praised the US veto, calling the proposal ‘shameful’.

During his address, Malta’s Foreign Minister highlighted 11 key points from his address, urging for de-escalation as well as the condemnation of killing abduction of over 1,450 Israelis on October 7th and the killing of 33,200 Palestinians in the reprisal.

One of the esteemed canine officers with the Malta Tax and Customs Administration, K9 Sophie, a loyal Labrador Retriever, has retired after joining in 2018.

Sophie was known for swiftly transitioning into “customs officer mode” with exceptional olfactory skills, obedience, and determination.

She made 106 positive detections, including seizing almost €1 million in undeclared cash, with her largest find being €165,318 at Malta International Airport. Sophie also detected 15,600 cigarettes in 28 tobacco seizure cases.

Last year, she received the Best Animal in Uniform award at Malta’s Animal Honours Award ceremony.

Sophie’s accomplishments mirror the success of the Customs unit, which seized 600kgs of cocaine and 35kgs of cannabis in the first three months of 2024 across seaports and the airport.

They also confiscated 72,000 counterfeit items, detected 24 stolen vehicles, and found over €60,000 in undeclared cash at the airport.

Sophie has retired and been adopted by her dog handler, marking the end of her dedicated service. Her impressive track record underscores the vital role of canine units in Customs operations, enhancing detection capabilities and contributing significantly to border security.
