RAFAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with Arab foreign ministers Saturday to find ways to ease Gaza’s growing humanitarian crisis. GAZA CITY FIGHTINGIsraeli troops have been tightening their encirclement of Gaza City, the main focus of the military's campaign to crush Hamas. The Israeli military said its aircraft hit an ambulance Friday that Hamas fighters were using to carry weapons. Al-Qidra said a convoy of ambulances left Shifa carrying wounded people to Rafah when a strike hit a vehicle on the edges of Gaza City. The overall toll is likely to rise dramatically as the assault on densely built-up Gaza City continues.

Dearborn, Michigan CNN —In 2020, Eman Hammoud was one of thousands of Michigan Muslims who helped President Joe Biden beat Donald Trump. A month ago, the Palestinian American immigration lawyer had no doubts she would support his campaign again in 2024. Michigan has more than 200,000 Muslim American voters — 146,000 of whom turned out to vote in 2020 –— according to an analysis by Emgage, an organization that seeks to build the political power of Muslim Americans. “That just proves that the Biden administration needs the Muslim vote to win,” said Nada Al-Hanooti, the Michigan executive director of Emgage Action. “We felt that the rhetoric, including from the White House, was very unhelpful and in fact potentially dangerous,” Alzayat said.

Since then, Omar Abou Nabout has sought accountability over his father’s killing while forging a new life in France. Legal cases have been filed against the Syrian regime before. The Syrian regime used them extensively, and indiscriminately, in densely populated areas at the height of the civil war, which was considered a form of prohibited indiscriminate attack under international humanitarian law. It may deny targeting civilians, but Abou Nabout says the new indictments are a victory for him and others fighting impunity. I was part of it … I watched people die including friends,” Abou Nabout said.

The killings underscore the reality that evacuation zones and warning alerts from the Israeli military haven’t guaranteed safety for civilians in the densely populated Gaza Strip, where Palestinians have no safe place to escape Israeli bombs. In the early hours on Friday, Aaed Al-Ajrami and his nephew, Raji, received a phone call from an Israeli military official – warning him to get everyone he knows and head southwards immediately, the nephew told CNN. Despite following the instructions and successfully fleeing south of the evacuation zone, Aaed’s family was killed by an Israeli airstrike the next day. The next day, an Israeli airstrike in the area destroyed parts of the building where Aaed’s family sought refuge – killing him and 12 other members of his family, including seven children. “You can follow the orders so that you aren’t exposed to danger, but the danger will still reach you wherever you are.”CNN has reached out to the IDF for comment about the airstrike outside of the evacuation zone, including Deir Al Balah.

Israel, in response, ordered a “complete siege” of Gaza, including cutting off food, water and fuel, while unleashing its heaviest ever airstrikes on the blockaded enclave. At least 2,215 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza from Israeli strikes, the Palestinian Ministry of Health said Saturday. A hospital in Gaza had to use ice cream trucks as makeshift morgues because of the growing number of bodies. His five family members – four cousins and his aunt – stopped responding to the family’s WhatsApp group at some point. With the situation in Israel escalating, Greenberg said, he managed to book a flight to Rome the next morning.

This is the reality for Palestinians living in Gaza without the protection of a robust civil defense infrastructure. “In Gaza, we don’t have anything…you have nowhere to go, no bomb shelters, no refuge, you are in the street,” Baroud said. In Gaza, the call or text alerts are far from guaranteed and – at most – give residents a few minutes to evacuate. These warning systems are able to calculate the location where a rocket is projected to land and set off a siren in the targeted area, often giving residents advance notice to find shelter. With far less resources, Gaza hasn’t built anything comparable to the Israeli defense systems.

But a CNN investigation has placed him outside of the Capitol at the same time as his alleged plot to keep Trump in office unraveled inside it. CNN was able to place Chesebro at the protest through publicly available databases with photos and videos from that day. Shroyer, who had previously signed a deferred prosecution agreement in another case saying he would not engage in disorderly conduct on the Capitol grounds, was charged with four misdemeanors. Later, the group, including Chesebro, make their way halfway up the steps of the Capitol Building before heading down. Chesebro follows members of the group as they depart the Capitol grounds close to 3 p.m.Later, Chesebro can be seen walking near the Peace Monument at the front of the Capitol.

He was a third-year, biological sciences student at U.C. It is unclear whether Mr. Dominguez knew any of the three victims, Chief Pytel said. Colloquially known as “the Compassion Guy,” Mr. Breaux had been stabbed “many, many times,” Chief Pytel said in a City Council meeting this week. Two days after that first attack, Karim Abou Najm, 20, a student majoring in computer science at U.C. Davis, was killed on a bike path after an altercation in a neighborhood park at 9:14 p.m. on Saturday.
Three men protesting the NEOM project have been sentenced to death, UN human rights experts said. The experts group said the men had been convicted under an "overly vague" terror law which appears not to meet international law. This image shows the planned design of 'The Line,' a 'vertical skyscraper' which forms part of the futuristic Saudi Arabian city of NEOM. Three further tribe members were given prison sentences of up to 50 years, the experts group said. Since January 2020, residents of the three villages of Al Khuraiba, Sharma and Gayal have been evicted without fair compensation, despite promises from the state, the experts group said.
"The hospitals now serving the wounded are so few, with limited number of doctors, so there's overcrowding of wounded," said Esraa Abou Shama, a doctor at Sudan's health ministry. Over four days of fighting nine hospitals in Sudan have been hit by artillery and 16 forcibly evacuated, the Sudanese Doctors' Union said, with none still providing a full service inside the capital. His hospital's water and cooking gas tanks have been hit, many staff fled, and diesel fuel for the power generator is almost exhausted, he said. Staff cannot access the morgue because of the fighting, so dead bodies are stored in rooms with air conditioning turned up. "We all have the same problems - electricity, water, staff.
Powell testified abou the Federal Reserve's semi-annual monetary policy report to Congress and the state of the economy Chip Somodevilla/Getty1. A reading of 200,000 or more jobs added in February means we're getting a bigger rate hike this month. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said this week that the trajectory of monetary policy doesn't hinge solely on today's jobs report, but markets are still bracing for impact. Remember, the Fed's stated goal is a 2% inflation rate. Meanwhile, Wharton's Jeremy Siegel said Thursday that the Fed is taking a flawed policy approach, and it shouldn't be so focused on jobs.
REUTERS/Jihed Abidellaoui/File PhotoTUNIS, March 5 (Reuters) - Tunisia's president denounced racism on Sunday and pointed to possible legal consequences for perpetrators 10 days after announcing a crackdown on illegal migration using language the African Union condemned as "racialised hate speech". Police detained hundreds of migrants, landlords summarily evicted hundreds from their homes and hundreds of others were fired from work, rights groups say. While Saied denied racism in a statement on Feb. 23, he repeated his view of immigration as a demographic plot. In Sunday's statement he described the accusations of racism as a campaign against the country "from known sources", without elaborating. He has said his actions were legal and needed to save Tunisia from chaos.

[1/4] Ivory Coast nationals living in Tunisia and seeking repatriation, wait outside the embassy of Ivory Coast in Tunis, Tunisia February 27, 2023. Social media has, meanwhile, filled with accounts by darker-skinned people in Tunisia, including migrants with and without valid visas, African students and Black Tunisians, of ill treatment and fear. Official figures say there are 21,000 migrants from sub-Saharan African countries in Tunisia. Tunisia introduced visa-free travel for many African countries over the past decade. Many migrants in Tunisia aim to cross illegally to Europe but cannot afford the hundreds of dollars to get to Italy - a journey also taken by growing numbers of Tunisians.

Fed Chair Powell took an aggressive stance at the podium Wednesday, effectively saying the central bank isn't done hiking rates. The Fed signaled it won't be taking its foot off the gas anytime soon with policy, but markets of late have been acting like a so-called Fed pivot is all but guaranteed. "Powell's very hawkish comments didn't get a very hawkish reaction from the market," Wright maintained. But the more the market ignores the Fed, the longer the Fed will have to keep monetary policy restrictive, which ultimately raises the odds of a recession. "We're likely to see head-fakes like this where the market looks for a Fed pivot," one strategist said.
CNN —The Taliban on Wednesday put an alleged murderer to death in the first public execution held in Afghanistan since the Islamist group returned to power. Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said the man was shot three times by the father of his alleged victim in an execution attended by senior Taliban officials in southwestern Farah province. The man had been accused of stabbing the victim to death in 2017 and stealing a cell phone and bicycle. It is the first public execution since Kabul fell to the Taliban following the withdrawal of US forces from the country in August 2021. During the Taliban’s earlier period of rule, from 1996 to 2001, public executions were common, as were other violent punishments.
Instead, the coveted junior recruit was benched, due to a decision from the state’s governing body for high school sports. Meanwhile, in a growing number of states, including California, even high school athletes can enter contracts. But boosters can pay prospective students through NIL deals, as long as the money is not contingent on enrollment or athletic performance. A University of Miami booster has earmarked $10 million to sign players to NIL deals through his companies. Cunningham’s message to high school athletes is “the grass isn’t always greener,” even in California.

Hux has owned Pickerington Pharmacy, which takes nearly every kind of insurance, since 2016. For some drugs, especially name-brand medications without generic alternatives, the insurance pharmacy, Pickerington, will most likely be the better bet. For other drugs, particularly those that have recently gone generic, it will be the all-cash pharmacy, Freedom. Or is it the noninsurance world?”For Kitchen, a retired registered nurse with arthritis and fibromyalgia, it was the noninsurance world of Freedom Pharmacy. By cutting out the middlemen, Freedom Pharmacy is far cheaper to operate.
Un tribunal din Irak a emis joi un mandat de arestare naţional împotriva preşedintelui american în exerciţiu Donald Trump, în cadrul anchetei asupra uciderii lui Abou Mehdi al-Mouhandis, puternicul comandant al forţelor pro-Iran din Irak, omorât anul trecut împreună cu generalul iranian Qassem Soleimani, informează AFP, citat de Agerpres. În iunie 2020, Iranul a emis un mandat de arestare şi a cerut emiterea unei “notificări roşii” către Interpol pe numele lui Trump pentru uciderea generalului Soleimani, procedură ce nu a avut succes până acum. Soleimani, a acuzat Donald Trump, “spunea că ‘vom ataca ţara voastră, îi vom ucide pe oamenii voştri'”. '”, a continuat preşedintele Trump pentru a justifica uciderile, calificate drept “ilegale” şi “arbitrare” de Agnes Callamard, raportoare specială a ONU asupra execuţiilor extrajudiciare. Tribunalul pentru anchete din Roussafa, sectorul estic din Bagdad, “a decis să emită un mandat de arestare împotriva preşedintelui în exerciţiu al SUA, Donald Trump, conform articolului 406 al Codului Penal irakian”, detaliază un comunicat al Autorităţii judiciare.

Potrivit unui purtător de cuvânt al Bisericilor de pe Pământul Sfânt, Wadie Abou Nassar, suspectul este "un evreu ortodox". "Îi mulţumim lui Dumnezeu pentru stingerea rapidă a focului", a subliniat el într-un comunicat, îndemnând poliţia să ancheteze "serios" asupra incidentului şi evocând posibile "motivaţii rasiste". Biserica este construită pe locul unde, potrivit religiei creştine, Iisus Hristos a fost capturat.

Rene Campbell has dedicated most of her life to sculpting her once diminutive frame into one that, she says, goes "completely against what society thinks a woman should look like." "I was constantly feeling under pressure through the media that women needed to look a certain way." "My bodybuilding journey made me realize that I needed to do things for myself," says Rene Campbell. Then, she attended a women's bodybuilding show and became intrigued by the way these seemingly confident women held themselves. I may look this way but, at the end of the day, I am a woman.
