The Initiatives Center at the Mohammed bin Salman Foundation, "MiSK Foundation", and Tokyo University signed in Tokyo on Friday a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to establish the Mohammed bin Salman Center for Future Science and Technology, reported the Saudi Press Agency.

The MoU was signed in the presence of President of the University of Tokyo Dr. Makoto Gonokami, Chairman of the Board of Directors of MiSK Initiatives Center Badr Al-Asaker and Saudi Ambassador to Japan Naif Al-Fhadi.

Al-Asaker said the MoU aims to train about 60 Saudi male and female youths at the University of Tokyo in the fields of renewable and nuclear energy in cooperation with experts from the industrial and research sector in Japan, in addition to field visits to factories and research centers.

The deal is an extension of the existing partnership between MiSK Foundation and the University of Tokyo, he added.

For his part, Gonokami said setting up the Center is a wonderful opportunity to enhance and deepen cooperation between Saudi Arabia and Japan.

“We will proceed in developing our partnerships to achieve the Saudi-Japanese vision 2030,” he stressed.

Two masked men broke into Britain's royal Windsor Castle estate last month and stole two vehicles from a barn, the Sun newspaper reported on Monday.

King Charles and his wife Camilla were not in the estate at the time of the incident but Prince William and his family were believed to be at Adelaide Cottage, part of the Windsor Castle estate, the Sun reported.

The men used a stolen truck to break through a security gate at night and then scaled a six-foot fence, the paper said.

Local police said officers were called to a report of a burglary on Crown Estate land in Windsor, west of London, just before midnight on Oct. 13.

"Offenders entered a farm building and made off with a black Izuzu pickup and a red quad bike. They then made off towards the Old Windsor/Datchet area," Thames Valley Police said in an emailed statement. "No arrests have been made at this stage and an investigation is ongoing."

Buckingham Palace declined to comment.

Windsor Castle previously faced a security scare in 2021 when authorities arrested a man with a crossbow in the grounds of the castle who said he had wanted to kill Queen Elizabeth.
