'I defied death after a fall – now I’m riding 1,000km across Mongolia for charity' says Kempston teen www.msn.com

Just three years ago, Imogen, from Box End Kempston, suffered a life-threatening fall that nearly ended both her life and riding career. But after making a full recovery, Imogen has come back more determined than ever to chase the dream of a lifetime.
Imogen, who is 19, suffered a freak accident while riding in 2022 when her horse flipped over a fence and landed on top of her. She was air-lifted to hospital in Cambridge where she was resuscitated. Doctors then found she'd broken six ribs, fractured parts of her spine and pelvis, punctured her lungs and damaged a retina, which has left her blind in one eye.
Imogen, a former pupil of Bedford Modern School, said: “I was just very lucky. Amazingly, I wasn't paralysed even though I’d broken every bone in my body and, despite the extensive injuries and against medical advice, I just wanted to get back on a horse. My recovery and rehabilitation took around six to eight weeks, it was a huge ordeal but I managed to bounce back and was back riding six weeks later.”
Though horse-riding has always been her passion, the accident has meant Imogen has re-evaluated her life's ambitions and decided not to pursue horse-riding professionally.
Instead, she trains and still rides horses competitively and has now been given the chance of a lifetime to compete in the 2026 Mongol Derby, the world’s longest and toughest horse race. Spanning 1,000 km across the wild Mongolian steppe on semi-wild horses, it’s a test of grit, courage, and horsemanship like no other.
Imogen says being selected for the Derby is a dream come true, but she can’t secure her place without raising the first instalment of the entry fee, which is nearly £14,000.
To help, she has set up a GoFundMe page and has so far raised £280 towards a target of £3.5k. She is also looking for sponsors.
Added Imogen: “That experience changed everything for me. It taught me that life is fragile and you have to grab opportunities when you can. The Mongol Derby isn’t just another competition, it’s the ultimate test of courage and resilience, and the perfect way to honour the second chance I was given. I don’t want to let this once-in-a-lifetime adventure slip away because of financial barriers.
“Throughout my Derby journey, I also want to raise awareness on the realities of living with high-functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Horses have often been my coping mechanism, something I could understand even when everything else seemed to make no sense.
"ASD shapes the way I connect with them, and while some may view it as a weakness, I see it as my superpower, giving me the ability to focus, face fear with determination, solve problems creatively, and never give up, even in the toughest situations.
“By supporting me, you won’t just be helping me and my dream to get to the start line of the world's toughest horse race - you’ll be part of a story about resilience, second chances, and embracing what makes us different.”
Imogen is also working to help raise funds and will be off to University in York to study philosophy.
“I’ll still be running my wedding events business while at uni and training, so it will be full on. But I am determined to keep competing and taking on new challenges.”

Counter-Strike 2 at 2025 Esports World Cup Champions: Mongolian Pride www.esportsworldcup.com

After more than 1,000 matches across 24 titles, the 2025 Esports World Cup concluded with the CS2 at EWC 25 finals. In the final match, The Mongolz defeated Aurora Gaming, making them the last team to add their key to the Champions Totem. Congratulations to The Mongolz on their first-place finish at EWC 25!
No room for mistakes
CS2 at EWC 25 was a cutthroat, single-elimination tournament that gave Counter-Strike 2 squads no room for error. One loss meant your tournament was over. The pressure wouldn't phase The Mongolz.
Coming into the tournament as the 4th seed, The Mongolz began their championship run with a convincing 2-0 win over Gamer Legion. Their first struggle came in the quarterfinals versus 3DMAX, where they dropped the second game. But after taking the following third game 13-8 on Nuke, they managed to keep their title run alive.
Team Vitality – the highest ranked team in the world who had been flawless during CS2 at EWC 25 so far – was waiting for them in the semifinal. After an action-packed three-game series, the Mongolians managed to overcome the French favorites, booking their ticket to the finals.
A one-sided final affair
Thousands of supporters gathered in Mongolia to watch their compatriots fight for their country’s pride in the CS2 final at EWC 25. Motivation levels were at an all-time high for Ayush "mzinho" Batbold and his teammates.
The other side of the bracket featured a surprise – Aurora Gaming – leading many to believe The Mongolz were the favorites to win the entire competition. The Mongolian squad had faltered under pressure before, and it seemed like history could repeat itself as the first map came down to the wire.
Eventually, the favorites managed to take the opening map, winning 16-14 after an exciting overtime sequence. The second game, while not as close, went 13-9 in The Mongolz’s favor. The last map wasn’t close at all, as they closed it out in convincing fashion, 13-4.
SONY MVP
As the absolute stand-out performer, the SONY MVP Award could realistically only go to one player: Sodbayar “Techno4K” Munkhbold. By winning the prize for most valuable player, Techno4K secured a personal trophy and an additional $10,000 in prize money.
Club Championship
The MongolZ become the 21st unique club to take an EWC 25 title win after their CS2 at EWC 25 victory.
While Team Falcons surely wanted to end EWC 25 on a positive note after already securing the Club Championship win earlier in the week, Vitality was the team with a lot still on the line heading into the third-place decider. A win would secure the French organization an additional $1,000,000, as it would allow them to overtake Team Liquid and claim second place in the final standings.
The French squad seemed poised to secure their organization that extra prize money, taking the first game on Inferno 13-8. On the following maps, Train and Nuke, Falcons showed what they were capable of one more time. Taking both games 13-3, they left no doubt about who was the third-strongest team at EWC 25.

Indonesia Pushes Stronger Diplomacy with Mongolia and Singapore, Reaffirms Support for Palestine www.metrotvnews.com

Ulaanbaatar: In an effort to reinforce Indonesia’s diplomatic posture, Deputy Foreign Minister Arrmanatha C. Nasir held two bilateral meetings on the sidelines of the 10th Forum for East Asia and Latin America Cooperation Foreign Ministers’ Meeting (10th FEALAC FMM) in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, on Friday, August 22.
The first meeting took place with Mongolia’s Foreign Minister, H.E. Battsetseg Batmunkh.
According to the Indonesian Foreign Ministry’s official statement released on Saturday, August 23, Deputy Minister Arrmanatha, popularly known as Tata, expressed appreciation for Mongolia’s success in hosting FEALAC and underscored the importance of enhancing Indonesia–Mongolia strategic relations.
The two sides discussed strengthening their partnership through the implementation of the Memorandum of Understanding on Political Consultation, signed in Jakarta on May 21, 2025, as well as the possibility of reciprocal state visits in 2026 to mark the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries. Other agenda items included fostering people-to-people connections and expanding cooperation in multilateral forums.
The second meeting was held with Singapore’s Senior Minister of State for Foreign Affairs and Home Affairs, H.E. Sim Ann. Deputy Minister Tata highlighted the close ties between Indonesia and Singapore, as reflected in the intensity of high-level exchanges, including President Prabowo Subianto’s attendance at Singapore’s National Day Parade earlier this month.
On multilateral issues, both countries reaffirmed their commitment to continue supporting each other in international forums. Singapore also conveyed its appreciation for Indonesia’s humanitarian assistance initiative for Gaza and Jakarta’s diplomatic efforts that have led to more countries recognizing Palestine.
In response, Deputy Minister Tata reiterated Indonesia’s dedication to supporting the Palestinian people.
“Indonesia will continue to push forward negotiations toward a two-state solution, while consistently respecting the aspirations and consent of the Palestinian people,” he concluded.

Beijing: SCO prepared to expand membership www.themalaysianreserve.com

The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) remains prepared to expand its membership to countries that share its vision, said China’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning.
“The SCO will uphold the principle of openness and inclusiveness and keep its doors open to all countries who identify with the Shanghai spirit,” she told reporters at her regular press conference on Friday.
Mao Ning said this when responding to a question if the attendance of SCO non-dialogue partners countries, such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam and Cambodia, indicates that SCO is considering admission of new member states.
The text of her press conference was published on the ministry’s website.
On Friday, Bernama reported China’s Assistant Foreign Minister Liu Bin as saying that Malaysia’s Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim will join more than 20 world leaders at the upcoming SCO Summit 2025 in Tianjin, China, from Aug 31 to Sept 1.
An official from the Malaysian Embassy in Beijing said Malaysia will be involved in the SCO Plus Meeting during the summit.
SCO was established in 2001 in Shanghai by six founding nations – China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.
The member countries have now expanded to 10 after Pakistan, India, Iran and Belarus joined the organisation, while Mongolia and Afghanistan have been granted observer status.
Among the 13 SCO dialogue partners are Sri Lanka, Turkiye, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the Maldives

China extends rare earth controls to imported material www.mining.com

China has rolled out tighter controls on the mining and processing of rare earths by extending its quota system to include imported materials and requiring enterprises to report on the flow of strategic minerals regularly.
According to documents from departments led by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), the new provisions stipulate that China’s quota system would apply not only to domestically produced rare earths, but also to those coming from abroad for refining.
China currently leads the global production of rare earths—a group of 17 elements that are essential to a wide range of high-tech and green technologies, including electronics, electric vehicles and wind turbines. The country also controls nearly all of the minerals’ processing, making it the undisputed dominant player in the rare earth supply chain.
In addition to the inclusion of imported minerals in the new quota system, companies involved in the production process must now submit monthly data on rare earth flows, including imports, into a newly established government information platform by the 10th of each month.
According to a report by the South China Morning Post, these rules were issued as guidelines on implementing the country’s Rare Earth Management Regulations that took effect this past October.
The documents, which the Hong Kong-based paper says are effective immediately, specifically detailed how government agencies should manage quotas for designated companies and make the flow of rare earth products traceable.
The latest move aligns with a string of recent regulatory actions, from adding rare earths and magnets to export restriction lists in April to issuing 2025 production quotas without the customary public notice—a sign of more discreet but firm regulatory posture.
“Compared to the previous quota system, which only regulated domestic raw materials, the new measures explicitly regulate imported ones,” stated Li Chao, chief analyst at Guojin Securities, adding that it further enhances China’s control over the rare earth supply chain.
Although official production and export quota figures were not disclosed, penalties for non‑compliance may include fines and cuts to future allocations.

Mongolia converts mainline diesel locomotive to hybrid traction for the first time www.rollingstockworld.com

The state-owned company Mongolian Railway has converted a 2TE116 locomotive to diesel-battery hybrid traction. The project was carried out for a year together with Chinese experts.
The traction system of the renewed locomotive consists of two 440 kW batteries and two 400 kW engines. The total power of the six-axle vehicle, designated the ESO, is 1,680 kW. It is claimed that the locomotive’s fuel consumption was decreased by 60–70%, with harmful emissions eliminated. Externally, the ESO resembles a shunter, but its intended operational role remains unspecified.
The refurbished double-section locomotive 2TE116 was produced in 1984 at the Lugansk Locomotive Works and has been out of service since 2014 due to having reached the end of its operational life. The current fleet of the Ulaanbaatar Railway in Mongolia includes four locomotives of this series.
