Verse 9, literally the sun going down at noon would be relative to ones position on the earth as when the sun goes down on one side of the earth it is rising on the other side. For the sun to represent the light of righteousness and peace that should have run its full course will be stopped midway by war and darkness is parabolic in meaning but may be the intended message as that applies to the entire earth at once. Verse 10 may be a declaration of a world war.
