President Israel: The world must support Israel for peace

Home

An Israeli interest group for kidnapped and missing persons announced Monday that another hostage had died in the Gaza Strip. Herzog said that to achieve peace, the world must support Israel in the fight against its enemies. Israel is currently carrying out attacks against the Gaza Strip and Lebanon. And according to human rights organizations, Israel persecutes the people of the occupied West Bank with increasing violence.

Israel began attacks on the Gaza Strip a year ago, killing more than 40,000 people and wounding nearly 100,000. These are mainly women and minors, according to local health authorities. Hamas said it fired rockets into Israel on Monday to mark one year since the start of the ‘Al Aqsa Flood’, as the movement calls the attack on the Gaza Strip. Israel says it has intercepted it.

The drama took place in a single-family home. Most likely, carbon monoxide escaped from a leaky or clogged chimney.

When firefighters arrived, there was one person standing in front of the house and three others, including two children, on the balcony. All four were taken to hospital.

The report indicated that there may be two other adults inside. Despite resuscitation, they could not be saved.

The operation in Javorzno is not the only one in which Silesian firefighters have been involved recently. An apartment in Chorzów caught fire at night. Eight people were evacuated.

Fortunately, no one was hurt and the tenants have already returned to their apartments.

In Guyana, a waste landfill project near a drinking water station was abandoned

Home

“It’s a relief, we’ve been heard,” said George Ozette, Delo’s plant manager, beaming.

Pollution and reputation

Founded in 1999 by former Guyanese international footballer Bernard Lama, the company, which employs 19 people, was concerned about the ISDND project being located 4.5 km from its pumping site. In addition to potential contamination, management feared such proximity would damage Delo’s image. “If there is even the slightest doubt about the quality of our products, their value collapses,” Mr. Uset worried in June 2023.

According to the plenary report, opposition from industrialists and the lack of amendment to the Regional Development Plan by the Regional Group of Guyana (CTG), defeated the project which was scheduled to absorb 70,000 tonnes of waste annually.

“It’s a waste of time,” said Kenny Chen Tong, vice chairman of CACL’s environmental waste committee. For him, “CTG is overdue.”

Pressure for time

But elected officials are in a hurry because the current ICD is saturated. On its website, CACL states that the installation “will have to close in 2025.” In the face of accumulated delays, the storage capacity has been adapted to be able to operate until 2027.

The new site project goes hand in hand with an energy recovery unit that will reduce the volume of waste while producing energy.

Morelos prison guards and inmates confront each other

Home

At the Atlacoluaya prison in Morelos, a confrontation took place between inmates and guards, and gun blasts reportedly alerted the prisoners’ families and emergency services.

According to the local authority, the confrontation led to the injury of three prisoners, while the prison leaders, who were subordinate to the former Morelos governor, Cuauhtémoc Blanco, were dismissed from their positions.

It is worth noting that the military leaders ruled out a rebellion in the prison, but soldiers, members of the National Guard, and members of the state mobilized to prevent this act.

For its part, the Morelos government reported that people deprived of their liberty, in dormitory B, confronted the guards, and for this reason the authority announced changes in the command structure, in order to comply with current regulations regarding prison inmates.

Meanwhile, in 2023, Jesús Francisco Flores, the prison director, was accused of demanding bribes amounting to 500,000 pesos from the families of people deprived of their liberty so that they would not be disturbed.

Michel Barnier wants to find a new balance and will go to the island “when the time comes”

Home

Senate and Assembly, a common mission

“We will take the time, at least for a year, to discuss the matter again and find a new balance. We can rebuild the dialogue between all the communities,” he said, recalling that the President of the National Assembly, Yael Braun-Bivet, and her counterpart in the Senate, Gérard Larcher, will carry out a mission of good offices in the archipelago.

He added: “I will go to New Caledonia myself when the time comes because I believe this is the responsibility of the Prime Minister.”

Economic damage

The electoral reform project, led by Emmanuel Macron and Gérald Darmanin, sparked the worst riots in 40 years in New Caledonia starting in May, killing 13 people, including two gendarmes. We should also regret the enormous economic damage it has suffered.

It was about expanding the electoral college – frozen since 2007 – for provincial elections to include residents of the archipelago for 10 years, which, according to separatists, threatens to marginalize the indigenous Kanak people.

AfD man resigns over Weidel: ‘Every party gets the politicians it deserves’

Home

The AfD’s transport policy spokesman in the Bundestag, Dirk Spaniel, wants to leave the AfD after Alice Weidel was appointed as first candidate. He told news portal T Online on Saturday evening in Ulm after the AfD party meeting in Baden-Württemberg for the 2025 federal elections.

“Every party gets the politicians it deserves,” Spaniel told T Online. “I am relieved that I no longer have to accept internal party grievances against me for partisan reasons. The AfD should go down this path. It will not be mine for long.”

Spaniel is a bitter and long-standing opponent of AfD leader Alice Weidel in the Baden-Württemberg regional federation. Weidel was voted No. 1 on the state list for the federal election in Ulm with 86.5 percent approval. Many of their supporters secured promising positions on the list. On the other hand, the Spaniel failed in its claim for fifth place on the list with only 26.9 percent approval.
