Propaganda videos recently released by Hamas and analyzed by CNN demonstrate how complicated and elaborate the fighting has quickly become. Here’s what we know about the battle for Gaza City. On Monday, an IDF spokesperson told CNN that the Israeli military was moving toward Gaza City, which he said the Israeli military had encircled since reaching Gaza’s coast on Sunday. “(They) first want to isolate Gaza City from the north and the south and concentrate your forces.

CNN —Israeli ground forces are closing in on Gaza City, the largest and most densely packed population center in the Palestinian enclave, satellite imagery and videos from open and official sources suggest. “IDF forces encircle Gaza from the air, land and sea, surrounding the city of Gaza and its surroundings,” Daniel Hagari, an IDF spokesman, said on Friday. Satellite imagery and footage have also shown Israeli forces on Salah al-Din Road, a highway running the length of the strip, seemingly blocking anyone still in Gaza City from moving south. The urban area encompassing Gaza City is home to nearly 2 million people living in an 88-square-mile expanse, which equates to about 21,000 people per square mile.

“Why do we even bother going through this whole dog-and-pony show trying to figure out who else can do this movie? While almost half the actor-director films at Toronto are by women, everyone knows by now the challenges female filmmakers face behind the camera. While some independent films have secured interim agreements if they agree to union demands, this year’s festival has seen few American filmmakers and actors doing promotion. Despite that, “Woman of the Hour” still landed the first major sale of the festival in a reported $11 million deal with Netflix. Considering that the stability of Hollywood itself is in question, it is hard to determine whether directing confers more security than having to hang around waiting for an acting job.

The James Webb telescope captured an image of M51, a galaxy 27 million light-years away. An image of M51 – also known as NGC 5194 or the Whirlpool Galaxy – taken by the James Webb Telescope. NASA/ESA/JWSTAstronomers hope the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will shed new light on how stars form in galaxies other than Milky Way. Before Webb came along, the Hubble telescope provided a glimpse of star formation in galaxies such as M51. Dark red regions show the cosmic dust that permeates the M51 galaxy in this zoomed in image from the James Webb telescope.

Colorful Ring Nebula shines in new Webb images

CNN —The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed colorful new portraits of the iconic Ring Nebula. Webb previously captured a different perspective on the Ring Nebula, as well as the similar-looking Southern Ring Nebula. A longtime favorite of astronomers, the Ring Nebula has been studied for years due to its observability and the insight it can provide into the lifetime of stars. Messier and astronomer Darquier de Pellepoix discovered the Ring Nebula in 1779. As the dying star was throwing off its atmosphere, the companion star shaped the outflow and sculpted it.”

It was real, and it’s hard to do.”Many survivors said that the trial was an important part of a tragic story. “Had we not had this trial, the deeds of this criminal would have been glossed over in the annals of history. One, Miri Rabinowitz, whose husband was killed, said executing the gunman would be a “bitter irony” because her husband had been devoted to “the sanctity of life.”

The pews were full at a Shabbat service at the Sixth & I synagogue in Washington in November 2018, held in memory of the victims of the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting. Over the nearly five years since 11 people were murdered in a Pittsburgh synagogue, the deadliest antisemitic attack in the country’s history, the question of justice has loomed, unresolved. Soon, the jury in the federal trial will make a decision that is central to that question of justice: whether Robert Bowers, the man who carried out the attack, should be condemned to death. Talmudic jurisprudence is strongly averse to the death penalty, Rabbi Kalmanofsky said, but Jewish citizens should understand that this is ultimately a decision in the hands of a secular justice system. And while rabbinical tradition holds that the death penalty should be extremely rare, he said, it acknowledges “that sometimes there are incredibly exigent circumstances.”

CNN —The James Webb Space Telescope set its sights on a galaxy 20 million light-years away, capturing a dazzling star-forming galaxy in images streaked with the signature of passing asteroids. A bright band in the upper left corner of the images shows the bright, bar-shaped center of the galaxy, according to a NASA news release. The NGC 5068 galaxy is a barred spiral galaxy, the same type as our home Milky Way. These new snapshots of NGC 5068 add to a growing repository of data on areas of the observable universe where stars are born.

TEL AVIV, April 22 (Reuters) - Tens of thousands of Israelis joined protests on Saturday against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's plans to tighten controls on the Supreme Court, ahead of Israel's independence day marking 75 years since establishment of the Jewish state. The plans were paused last month in the face of a wave of strikes and mass demonstrations. The latest protests against them come as Israelis are set to mark both Israeli independence day and Israeli memorial day, which commemorates those killed in Israel's wars and in terror attacks. Additionally, 60% of Israelis said the government does not represent them and 48% believe the situation in the country will continue to get worse. They were waving the blue and white Israeli flags that have become a hallmark of the protests over the past three months.

Astronomers took a new image of the Tarantula Nebula with the James Webb Space Telescope. Webb's instruments captured thousands of never-before-seen young stars, shrouded in cosmic dust. The space around the young stars is where gas has been cleared out by the stars' intense radiation and stellar winds. A side-by-side display of the same region of the Tarantula Nebula shows the difference between Webb's Near-Infrared Camera, left, and Webb's Mid-Infrared Instrument, right. Astronomers believe the Tarantula Nebula belongs to our universe's distant past.

Un cuplu indian a închiriat un avion pentru a se căsători printre nori în faţa a 161 de invitaţi, încălcând astfel restricţiile anti-COVID-19, a informat presa luni, potrivit AFP, citat de agerpres.ro. Autoritatea de aviaţie civilă din India a dispus o anchetă şi a suspendat echipajul aeronavei, au precizat surse oficiale. Majoritatea statelor din India - care a depăşit luni pragul de 300.000 de decese asociate COVID-19 - permit un număr maxim de 50 de invitaţi la o nuntă. Potrivit presei, Direcţia Generală a Aviaţiei Civile a cerut SpiceJet să ia măsuri împotriva proaspeţilor miri şi a invitaţilor acestora. "În pofida solicitărilor şi atenţionărilor repetate, pasagerii nu au respectat directivele, iar compania va lua măsurile corespunzătoare în conformitate cu regulile", a adăugat el.

În 2019, penalul Ilan Șor, condamnat în 2017 la 7 ani și 6 luni pentru implicare în furtul miliardului, ajunge deputat. Sper, doresc o mare schimbare după 11 iulie, dar pentru asta trebuie să răsturnăm, cu votul nostru, acest Parlament de hoți și de tâlhari și să punem unul mai curat. Dacă se va reuși o campanie bună de informare, posibil ca și acest partid să rămână în afara pragului electoral. Alexandru Arseni, doctor în dreptFaptul că Partidul Șor a ajuns din nou pe lista concurenților electorali, cu Șor primul pe listă, e grav. Dați să alegem un Parlament cu o majoritate euro-unionistă și atunci o să le cerem să-l scoată în afara legii.

Acțiunea făcută „oficial”, cu transmisiune live, a fost motivată de faptul că Tutunaru s-a vaccinat contra COVID sărind peste rând. Deputatul PUN Octavian Țîcu s-a adresat la Curtea Constituțională pentru anularea stării de urgență, motivând că solicitarea de instituire a acesteia a fost făcută neregulamentar. Ca să nu rămână în urmă, și deputații PAS s-au adresat cu o cerere similară câteva zile mai târziu.
