Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, in a telephone conversation with Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant, warned that the safety of the city’s civilian population must be ensured before Israel begins military operations in Rafah.
As Day.Az reports with reference to Interfax, the Pentagon reported this.
“The minister stressed the need to have a robust plan in place to provide security and support to the more than one million people sheltering in Rafah before any military operations begin there,” the statement said.
The parties also discussed efforts to free all remaining Hamas hostages. Austin raised the need to improve conflict resolution with humanitarian groups and the delivery of aid to Palestinian civilians “as looting and violence impede access of humanitarian convoys to Gaza.”
The ministers touched upon Israel’s operation against Hamas in the city of Khan Yunis, which began in December last year.
Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in an interview with ABC television, said that Israeli troops would defeat the remaining Hamas battalions in Rafah, which, according to Netanyahu, has become the group’s “last bastion.” He rejected calls not to send Israeli troops to Rafah, saying such a decision would be tantamount to defeat.
The Netherlands Must Take More Measures Against Nitrogen…

Dutch measures to limit nitrogen emissions from agriculture are insufficient. These are the conclusions of the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency (PBL), the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), the University of Wageningen (WUR) and the engineering firm Deltares in a joint study.

According to the researchers, the plans that have been drawn up in the Netherlands at national and provincial level to significantly reduce nitrogen emissions from agriculture over the next ten years do not go far enough. Proposed measures, such as buying out major emitters, do help, but are not sufficient to achieve the set goals.
According to the researchers, “farmers will have to implement many more costly and far-reaching measures on their farms” if the government wants to achieve the goals in 2030 or 2035. In that case, livestock numbers must be reduced even further, nature reserves must be expanded and the use of hundreds of thousands of hectares of agricultural land must also change. It is “not plausible” that all this will be accomplished within ten years, “given the unprecedented scale of these tasks.”
The Netherlands has allocated more than 24 billion euros to make agriculture more sustainable.
Eibar RCD Espanyol | Spanish Subscribe To Miracles…
In one of the most miraculous comebacks in recent times, RCD Espanyol broke their eternal curse away from home once and for all (2-3). Against a superior Eibar that at times forgave a rout, the Spanish team won away for the first time since last October 5. A true comeback of promotion that calms, for the moment, the troubled waters in Barcelona.
In what seemed like the umpteenth home defeat this season, Espanyol jumped to Ipurúa as if it were not aware of the importance of the match that was about to be played. It was a unique opportunity to close the gap against a direct rival for promotion, an opportunity like no other to break the embarrassing curse of the away team.
The gunsmiths opted for their most offensive version from the opening whistle, taking advantage of Espanyol’s continuous defensive concessions. They took advantage of the great form of an incisive Stoichkov, who made the blue and white team tremble every time he entered the wing like a real dagger. Espanyol, with a purely speculative approach against one of the best prepared teams in the championship, was not going to take long to receive its punishment.
A few minutes before the break,

The Truth Behind Alabamas IVF Ban: John Oliver…
Alabama Supreme Court Ruling Sparks Controversy
Last week, Alabama’s Supreme Court made a groundbreaking ruling that classified frozen embryos created through in vitro fertilization (IVF) as living human beings. This decision caused a stir among Republicans who are now reevaluating their stance on the issue to avoid alienating women voters in the upcoming 2024 elections. Comedian John Oliver seized the opportunity to criticize this ruling on his show, Last Week Tonight.
Implications of the Ruling
Oliver pointed out the absurdity of equating frozen embryos with actual people, highlighting the fact that freezing an embryo is vastly different from freezing a living person. The ruling has significant implications nationwide, considering that approximately 2 percent of Americans are born through IVF. Following the ruling, many fertility clinics in Alabama halted treatments out of fear of potential lawsuits for wrongful death related to unused or discarded embryos. This abrupt halt in treatments has left numerous couples in limbo, unable to continue their journey to parenthood.
The Origin Story
The controversial ruling stemmed from a peculiar incident where a patient accidentally destroyed some vials of embryos stored in a clinic’s freezer. While the accident was unfortunate, Oliver emphasized that it does not equate to murder.
