Pilot phase of biometric vaccination system for Kenyan newborns goes live-Jun 8, 2023, 3:43 pm EDT-| Ayang Macdonald

The rollout of a biometric system to manage the vaccination journey of children below the age of five years in Kenya has begun on a pilot at a hospital in the poor Kinango sub-county ahead of a planned nationwide deployment.This pilot comes after a clinical trial which researchers said was successful.The technology, which was developed thanks to a tripartite partnership of the Kenya Medical Research Institute (Kemri), NEC Corporation and the Japan Nagasaki University, is designed to make sure that children do not miss any stage of the vaccine process until they are five, reports Nation.The system collects the fingerprints of newborns and voice biometrics of parents or caregivers for identification purposes. The data will also enable health personnel track the children’s vaccine schedules so they do not miss out on any dosage.A project to ensure correct infant vaccination against HIV with biometrics in Kenya was described to Biometric Update in 2018 by Paul Macharia, who is among those spearheading the initiative for years.The Nation notes the view of one Mishi Gulu who birthed her first child on the day the pilot was launched on May 11. She said despite her illiterate status, her baby would not skip any vaccine schedule thanks to the biometric tracking system.Professor Elijah Songok, Kemri acting director, says the novelty is part of efforts of the Kenyan government to curb infant mortality in the country, which is also part of the country’s Universal Health Coverage objectives.He says with time, the technology, which has been widely embraced by parents and members of different communities, will be introduced in more health facilities across other counties.“Most of the deaths of our children occur below five years old, that is why we accept this technology. In this study we have 2,000 children,” says Songok as quoted by Nation.Apart from the biometric child vaccination project, the Kenyan government in March said it was also partnering with NEC Corporation and the government of Japan to implement a biometric patients record system. The government of Belgium is also a partner in the project.

Trump’s GOP loyalists rally to his defense as federal charges filed-Republican lawmakers in Congress look to push argument that Biden and law enforcement are conspiring against the former US president ahead of 2024 election-By MARY CLARE JALONICK and Farnoush Amiri-JUN 10,23-Today, 5:21 pm

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former US president Donald Trump’s indictment on charges of mishandling classified documents is set to play out in a federal court in Florida. But hundreds of miles away, part of Trump’s defense is well underway in a different venue — the halls of Congress, where Republicans have been preparing for months to wage an aggressive counter-offensive against the Justice Department.The federal indictment against Trump, unsealed Friday, includes 37 counts, including allegations that the former president intentionally possessed classified documents, showed them off to visitors, willfully defied Justice Department demands to return them, and made false statements to federal authorities about them. The evidence details Trump’s own words and actions as recounted by lawyers, close aides, and other witnesses.The Republican campaign to discredit federal prosecutors skims over the substance of those charges, which were brought by a grand jury in Florida. GOP lawmakers are instead working, as they have for several years, to foster a broader argument that law enforcement — and US President Joe Biden — are conspiring against the former president and possible Republican nominee for president in 2024.“Today is indeed a dark day for the United States of America,” tweeted House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, soon after Trump said on his social media platform Thursday night that an indictment was coming. McCarthy blamed Biden, who has declined to comment on the case and said he is not at all involved in the Justice Department’s decisions.McCarthy called it a “grave injustice” and said that House Republicans “will hold this brazen weaponization of power accountable.”Republican lawmakers in the House have already laid extensive groundwork for the effort to defend Trump since taking the majority in January. A near-constant string of hearings featuring former FBI agents, Twitter executives, and federal officials have sought to paint the narrative of a corrupt government using its powers against Trump and the right. A GOP-led House subcommittee on the “weaponization” of government is probing the Justice Department and other government agencies, while at the same time, Republicans are investigating Biden’s son Hunter Biden.“It’s a sad day for America,” Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan of Ohio, a leading Trump defender, and ally in the House, said in a statement on Thursday evening. “God bless President Trump.”Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs was more strident. “We have now reached a war phase,” he tweeted. “Eye for an eye.”Democrats say the Republicans are trafficking in conspiracy theories, with potentially dangerous consequences. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, both Democrats from New York, issued a joint statement Friday urging calm around the Trump case, saying everyone should “let this case proceed peacefully in court.”Recent Republicans’ rhetoric “not only undermines the Department of Justice but betrays the essential principle of justice that no one is above the commands of law, not even a former President or a self-proclaimed billionaire,” said Rep. Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee.Key elements of the GOP strategy are to discredit the prosecutors and investigate the investigators — a playbook that Republicans employed during Trump’s presidency as his own Justice Department probed his connections to Russia, and also used in April when Trump was charged in a hush money investigation in New York.In the days leading to the New York indictment, House Republicans laid out a full-on campaign against Alvin Bragg, the Democratic district attorney in Manhattan who brought the case against the former president.Charging that the prosecution was “pure politics,” Jordan held a field hearing near Bragg’s New York offices to examine what they said were his “pro-crime, anti-victim” policies. Jordan is also the top Republican on the weaponization subcommittee.As special counsel Jack Smith was preparing this week to release the indictment, Trump’s allies on Capitol Hill were working overtime to prepare the defense of the former president. Jordan issued a series of letters to the Justice Department, demanding documents related to his investigation into Trump’s handling of classified records. Jordan cited the recent report by special counsel John Durham that found that the FBI rushed into its investigation of ties between Russia and Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and routinely ignored or rationalized evidence that undercut its premise.This image, contained in the indictment against former President Donald Trump, shows boxes of records stored in a bathroom and shower in the Lake Room at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Fla. Trump is facing 37 felony charges related to the mishandling of classified documents according to an indictment unsealed Friday, June 9, 2023. (Justice Department via AP)-In the June 1 letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, Jordan requested information about the ongoing investigation in order to “ensure any ongoing investigations are not poisoned by this same politicization.”Just as the indictment was unsealed on Friday, Jordan sent another letter to Garland, this time laying out testimony from a former FBI official who testified to the committee about the raid at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate. The Ohio Republican wrote that Steven D’Antuono, a former assistant director at the FBI’s Washington Field Office, told the committee the Justice Department “was not following the same principles” as previous raids.Defending Trump also has the potential to ease tensions among House Republicans as they face their own troubles on Capitol Hill after a conservative-led revolt over the recent debt ceiling deal divided the party this week and halted most legislation from passing on the floor.But even if Republicans are able to shape public perception of the probes, there is one thing they cannot do — control the outcome of Trump’s trial. The former president is at great legal risk, no matter what the public believes, under two indictments — and potentially more as prosecutors in Georgia and Washington investigate his actions leading up to the January 6 insurrection.Still, some Republicans maintain that the multiple indictments could help Trump improve his standing in polls of Republican voters and solidify the impression that the government is conspiring against him.Republican Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina told CNN she believes the indictment “handed Donald Trump the nomination” in the 2024 GOP primary.And as the House panel has ramped up its efforts to defend the former president, the word “weaponization” has taken root among Trump’s Republican allies. Nearly every GOP lawmaker used the term — as did a member of Trump’s legal team hours before the charges were unsealed to the public.“It puts a stamp of reality on something that really is unreal in terms of the weaponization of the Department of Justice,” said James Trusty, one of Trump’s lawyers, on ABC Friday morning. Trump announced later in the day that Trusty was leaving his team.Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas tweeted that “the weaponization of our Department of Justice against enemies of the Biden admin. will do enormous damage to the rule of law & have a lasting impact.”Cruz’s GOP colleagues in the Senate were more muted, with Republican Leader Mitch McConnell and others who have criticized the former president declining to weigh in on the indictment.Republican Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah, the only GOP senator to vote to convict Trump in both of his impeachment trials, was a rare voice of criticism. While Romney stressed that Trump is entitled to the presumption of innocence, he said he believes the charges are serious and Trump brought them on himself.“These allegations are serious and if proven, would be consistent with his other actions offensive to the national interest,” Romney said.

Trump-appointed judge said assigned to initially oversee ex-US president’s case-Judge Aileen Cannon previously gave Republican nomination frontrunner ‘head-scratching victories’ during court review of documents seized in 2022 FBI Mar-a-Lago raid, report says-By Agencies and ToI Staff-JUN 10,23-Today, 3:26 pm

The case against Donald Trump will initially be handled by US District Judge Aileen Cannon, who was appointed by the former US president and made rulings favorable to him during a court review of documents seized in an FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, according to reports Friday.Trump is due to make his first court appearance Tuesday afternoon in Miami.However, Politico reported that it remained unclear if Cannon would preside over the whole case.Cannon has expressed repeated skepticism of Justice Department positions and was broadly criticized last year for granting the Trump legal team’s request for a special master to conduct an independent review of the hundreds of classified documents seized from his Florida property.The move, which temporarily halted core aspects of the US Justice Department’s investigative work, was overturned months later by a three-judge panel of a federal appeals court.According to ABC News, legal experts said Cannon gave Trump “a series of head-scratching victories over the course of those proceedings.”US President Donald Trump sits at his desk after a meeting with Intel CEO Brian Krzanich, left, and members of his staff in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, February 8, 2017, as a lockbag is visible on the desk, the key still inside at left. (AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais, File)-Federal prosecutors unsealed a wide-ranging indictment of Trump on Friday, accusing the former US president of endangering national security by holding on to top secret nuclear and defense documents after leaving the White House.The 76-year-old Trump, the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, took “hundreds” of classified government documents in cardboard boxes to his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida, the 49-page charge sheet said.Trump kept the files — which included records from the Pentagon, CIA and National Security Agency — unsecured at Mar-a-Lago, which regularly hosted large social events involving tens of thousands of guests over time, the indictment said.On at least two occasions, Trump showed classified documents on US military operations and plans to people not cleared to see them at his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club, it said.This image, contained in the indictment against former US president Donald Trump, shows boxes of records stored in a bathroom and shower in the Lake Room at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida. Trump is facing 37 felony charges related to the mishandling of classified documents according to an indictment unsealed June 9, 2023. (Justice Department via AP)-Trump faces 37 separate counts in the indictment including 31 counts of “willful retention of national defense information” relating to specific documents.A conviction on each count carries up to 10 years in prison.A trial is not expected to begin for several months and there is nothing to prevent Trump from pursuing a second term in the White House while facing charges.

BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — Four Indigenous children survived an Amazon plane crash that killed three adults and then wandered on their own in the jungle for 40 days before being found alive by Colombian soldiers.The announcement of their rescue on Friday brought a happy ending to a saga that had seized the attention of many Colombians, a watch with highs and lows as searchers frantically combed through the rainforest hunting for the youngsters.Colombian President Gustavo Petro celebrated the news upon returning from Cuba, where he signed a cease-fire with representatives of the National Liberation Army rebel group. He said the children were getting medical attention and he hoped to talk with them Saturday.The air force evacuated the children on a helicopter that used lines to pull them up because it couldn’t land in the dense rainforest where they were found. It said the craft was going to San Jose del Guaviare, a small town on the edge of the jungle, but gave no information on plans for dealing with the youngsters.No details were released on how the four siblings aged 13, 9, 4 and 11 months managed to survive on their own for so long, though they belong to an Indigenous group that lives in the remote region.Petro called them an “example of survival” and predicted their saga “will remain in history.”The military tweeted pictures showing a group of soldiers and volunteers posing with the children, who were wrapped in thermal blankets. One of the soldiers held a bottle to the smallest child’s lips.The crash happened in the early hours of May 1, when the Cessna single-engine propeller plane with six passengers and a pilot declared an emergency due to an engine failure.The small aircraft fell off radar a short time later and a frantic search for survivors began. Two weeks after the crash, on May 16, a search team found the plane in a thick patch of the rainforest and recovered the bodies of the three adults on board, but the small children were nowhere to be found.Sensing that they could be alive, Colombia’s army stepped up the hunt and flew 150 soldiers with dogs into the area. Dozens of volunteers from Indigenous tribes also helped search.During the search, in an area where visibility is greatly limited by mist and thick foliage, soldiers on helicopters dropped boxes of food into the jungle, hoping that it would help sustain the children. Planes flying over the jungle fired flares to help search crews on the ground at night, and rescuers used speakers that blasted a message recorded by the siblings’ grandmother, telling them to stay in one place.Rumors also emerged about the childrens’ whereabouts and on May 18, the president tweeted that the children had been found. He then deleted the message, claiming he had been misinformed by a government agency.The group of four children were traveling with their mother from the Amazonian village of Araracuara to San Jose del Guaviare when the plane crashed.They are members of the Huitoto people, and officials said the oldest children in the group had some knowledge of how to survive in the rainforest.On Friday, after confirming the children had been rescued, the president said that for a while he had believed the children were rescued by one of the nomadic tribes that still roam the remote swath of the jungle where the plane fell and have little contact with authorities.But Petro added that the children were first found by one of the rescue dogs that soldiers took into the jungle.Officials did not say how far the children were from the crash site when they were found. But the teams had been searching within a 4.5-kilometer (nearly 3-mile) radius from the site where the small plane nosedived into the forest floor.As the search progressed, soldiers found small clues in the jungle that led them to believe the children were still living, including a pair of footprints, a baby bottle, diapers and pieces of fruit that looked like it had been bitten by humans.“The jungle saved them,” Petro said. “They are children of the jungle, and now they are also children of Colombia.”

Syrian refugee wounds 5, mostly children, in suspected stabbing attack in France-Witnesses say assailant attacked people at random before police shot and arrested him; two children and adult victims fighting for life in hospital-By AFP 8 June 2023, 5:52 pm

ANNENCY, France — A man armed with a knife attacked a group of preschool children playing by a lake in the French Alps Thursday, wounding four as well as an adult and sending shockwaves through the country.The suspect is a Syrian in his early 30s who was granted refugee status in Sweden in April, a police source told AFP.Witnesses described the suspected knifeman running around in a frenzy, apparently attacking people at random before he was shot by police near the banks of Lake Annecy.“He wanted to attack everyone. I moved away and he lunged at an old man and woman and stabbed the old man,” former professional footballer Anthony Le Tallec, who was running in the park, told the local Dauphine Libere newspaper.Another witness, named Malo, told the BFM television channel that the culprit attacked the children before the old man and was “shouting, but it wasn’t really comprehensible.”Two of the children — believed to be aged around three — and an adult victim were in critical condition and fighting for their lives in a hospital, a security source told AFP.A police source said checks on the man, who was arrested at the scene, were ongoing, but he was unknown to French security services.Annecy is a scenic town in the French Alps close to the border with Switzerland popular with tourists and home to one of the world’s top animation festivals, which starts Sunday.French President Emmanuel Macron called it an “attack of absolute cowardice.”“The nation is shocked. Our thoughts are with (the victims) as well as their families and the emergency services,” he wrote on Twitter.-Minute of silence-Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne’s office announced she was traveling to the scene and MPs in the French parliament held a minute’s silence.“We hope that the consequences of this extremely serious attack… will not send the country into mourning,” parliament speaker Yael Braun-Pivet told MPs as she interrupted a raucous debate about pension reform.The motive and identity of the attacker are being investigated and the local prosecutor is expected to give further details at a press conference.In 2012, a Franco-Algerian extremist called Mohamed Merah killed seven people during a shooting rampage in the southern city of Toulouse, with the murders of three children and a rabbi at a Jewish school sparking widespread outrage.Most recently, the beheading of a teacher in broad daylight in 2020 near his school in a Paris suburb by a radicalized Chechen refugee led to shock and grief, as well as a national debate about the influence of radical Islam in deprived areas of the country.Thursday’s attack is likely to spur greater scrutiny of immigration and asylum policy, with right-wing politicians immediately seizing on the suspected culprit’s identity as a refugee.“The investigation will determine what happened, but it seems like the culprit has the same profile that you see often in these attacks,” the head of the right-wing Republicans party, Eric Ciotti, told reporters at parliament.“We need to draw conclusions without being naive, with strength and with a clear mind.”The leader of the far-right National Rally party, Marine Le Pen, wrote that she had learned the news with “dread and horror.”

The Canadian Press-Pope Francis takes doctors' advice to skip Sunday public blessing as he recovers from major surgery-Sat, June 10, 2023 at 1:00 p.m. EDT

ROME (AP) — Pope Francis, “wisely” following doctors’ advice, will skip Sunday’s customary public blessing to allow himself to better heal after abdominal surgery earlier this week, his surgeon told reporters.Blood and imaging tests indicate that the 86-year-old pope's recovery is proceeding in an “absolutely normal” manner, Sergio Alfieri, who operated on the pontiff, also told reporters on Saturday at Gemelli Polyclinic in Rome.During the three-hour-long operation on Wednesday, using general anesthesia, doctors removed increasingly painful scarring that resulted from previous abdominal surgeries as well as repaired a hernia in the abdominal wall, with the insertion of a prosthetic support netting, or mesh.Alfieri said while Francis' recovery has been medically uneventful, any extra physical exertion, like rising from bed to move to an armchair to recite the traditional Sunday noon blessing and commentary to the public through a video link, could be risky at this point.While the Vatican said earlier in the week that Francis had occasionally been sitting in a chair to read newspapers, the weekly noon appointment customarily involves the pope speaking to the public for about 15 minutes and giving his blessing.Advice by his doctors and the pope's trusted Vatican nurse to forgo the Sunday appearance is aimed at achieving "the least strain on the abdominal wall in order to allow the implanted mesh and the muscle fascia repaired to heal optimally,'' Alfieri said.“In the next few days, if he's not careful about healing, the netting could tear and he'll be back in the operating room,” the surgeon said.“If he has a careful recovery, he'll be back better” than before at the Vatican, Alfieri said. “It's prudence that we suggested and that he wisely accepted.”Francis has graduated from a liquid to a semiliquid diet and had no fever, according to his medical staff.His cardiac and respiratory status was also fine, Alfieri said in his first medical briefing on the pontiff's condition since the one he gave Wednesday shortly after the pope came round from the anesthetic.“For his age, 86, he doesn't have pathologies” regarding his heart or respiratory systems, Alfieri said in response to a reporter's question.Francis will recite the traditional Sunday noon prayer privately in his hospital room, and faithful are encouraged to join in the prayer, Bruni said.While praying privately, Francis will unite “spiritually, with affection and gratitude, to the faithful who want to accompany him, wherever they are” in prayer, Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni said in a separate, written statement.Meanwhile, thousands of people turned out in St. Peter’s Square for a gathering to promote the value of brotherhood — a quality so dear to Francis that he wrote an encyclical on its importance in 2020.But since Francis couldn't speak to them, a cardinal read out the pontiff's speech, which acknowledged his absence.“Even though I am unable to greet you in person, I would like to welcome and thank you wholeheartedly for coming,'' the prepared speech began. Those listening heard a reminder from Francis that there is ”the possibility of being brothers and sisters even when we are not close, as has happened to me."Francis is convalescing in the 10th-floor apartment reserved for papal use at Gemelli Polyclinic.No date has yet been announced for his release from the hospital."We hope we will convince him to stay at least the whole next week,'' Alfieri said on Saturday.Alfieri said by opting to spend more of his convalescence in the hospital instead of leaving after a handful of days, the pope can return “to his work with more strength and safety.”Alfieri recalled his remarks, hours after the surgery, that Francis had experienced no complications during the surgery or from the general anesthesia.During the operation, the surgical team removed adhesions, a kind of internal scarring not infrequent after previous surgery. Two years earlier, Francis had part of his colon removed following a narrowing of a section of the bowel. The hernia that was repaired had formed over a previous scar.Alfieri had performed the 2021 bowel surgery as well. When he operated this time, “I found the same scars I found two years ago," the surgeon said Saturday. “Then they weren't causing symptoms.” But in the time since, the adhesions were increasingly causing pain.Post-surgery, Francis “doesn't have much pain," Alfieri said, adding that the pontiff was on “bland” anti-pain medication “so he can breathe well.”Francis has two trips abroad set for August, the first to Portugal, for a Catholic youth jamboree, and then, at the end of that month, to Mongolia, the first-ever pilgrimage by a pontiff to that Asian country.Asked about the prospects for those strenuous trips given his surgery, Alfieri said the pontiff, “made these calculations" when deciding to go ahead with the June 7 surgery, an indication that Francis felt that the timing of the operation would allow him to stick to his travel plans.Frances D'emilio, The Associated Press.

EIranian president Raisi visits Indonesia to deepen economic ties-Meeting with counterpart Joko Widodo comes as Tehran seeks alternatives to US-led Western domination of international affairs-By ACHMAD IBRAHIM and Niniek Karmini-MAY 23,23-Today, 9:38 am

BOGOR, Indonesia (AP) — Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi will meet his Indonesian counterpart Joko Widodo on Tuesday during a two-day trip aiming to strengthen economic ties between the Muslim-majority nations amid heightened global geopolitical tensions.Indonesia’s Foreign Affairs Ministry said Raisi is visiting at Widodo’s invitation as Indonesia aims to speed up its post-pandemic recovery by increasing its exports.The visit is expected to deepen Iran’s ties with Indonesia as Tehran seeks alternatives to the United States-led Western domination of international affairs and seeks further cooperation after the two nations concluded negotiations on the Indonesia-Iran Preferential Trade Agreement this month, Indonesia’s Trade Ministry said.The ministry’s data showed that trade between Indonesia and Iran amounted to $54.1 million between January and March, while the bilateral trade value last year increased by more than 23% to $257.2 million.Iran was a nontraditional trade partner for Indonesia, said Johni Martha, the director of bilateral negotiations at Indonesia’s Trade Ministry. “With this PTA, we hope to widen our market reach and export opportunities in the Middle East and Persia,” he said.Southeast Asia’s largest economy is seeking new markets to diversify its export options and to reduce its reliance on traditional trade partners, many of which have been affected by a weakened global economy and geopolitical risks.In February, Raisi met with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping to seek further cooperation following their meeting last September in Uzbekistan, when Xi underscored China’s support for Iran. Both countries have had tense relations with the US and have sought to project themselves as a counterweight to American power alongside Russia.Washington has accused Iran of selling hundreds of attack drones to Russia for its war in Ukraine and has sanctioned executives of an Iranian drone manufacturer. At that same time, ties between Moscow and Beijing have grown stronger.While in Indonesia, Raisi is scheduled to lay a wreath at the Kalibata Heroes Cemetery in Jakarta to honor Indonesia’s war dead before he meets with Widodo in the presidential palace in Bogor. They will witness the signing of the PTA and other agreements.Before leaving Jakarta on Wednesday, Raisi will also meet with Indonesia’s House Speaker Puan Maharani, religious figures and business people. He’ll visit Jakarta’s Istiqlal Grand Mosque, the largest in Southeast Asia, and give public lectures in an Islamic university.Widodo’s last trip to Iran was in 2016 while the last official state visit from Iran was in 2015 when Hassan Rouhani attended the 50th commemoration of the Asia-Africa Conference in Bandung.

It would fashion possibility of ending Arab-Israeli conflict' Netanyahu: Saudi normalization would be quantum leap forward, change history-PM also tells Sky News that Israel ‘will do what we need to do’ against Iran’s nuclear program, says he’s ‘not sure’ consensus will be achieved on judicial overhaul-By ToI Staff 9 June 2023, 1:41 pm

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in an interview aired Friday that an Israeli normalization agreement with Saudi Arabia would be “a quantum leap forward” and “would change history” if it could be achieved, while saying such a deal was one of his primary policy goals in his latest term in office.Speaking to Sky News, the premier said he could not guarantee that a deal will happen as “it’s up to the Saudis” but that he “certainly hope[s] so.”Saudi Arabia, Netanyahu said, “is the most influential Arab country, not only in the Arab world — I think also in the Muslim world. It would fashion I think the possibility of ending the Arab-Israeli conflict, and I think that would also help us solve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.”Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan said Thursday that Riyadh normalizing ties with Israel would bring significant benefits to the region but that those benefits would be limited by the absence of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.Saudi officials have long said publicly that they won’t normalize relations with Israel before the establishment of a Palestinian state on the pre-1967 lines, even though they’ve offered more flexibility behind closed doors.The Biden administration has recently intensified its efforts to broker a normalization deal between the two countries.Saudi Arabia has been willing to entertain the idea but is seeking several large concessions from the US. In addition to cooperation on the civilian nuclear program, which would likely be a cause of apprehension for both the US and Israel, it also expects security and economic guarantees from the Biden administration, a senior US official and a senior Middle East diplomat told The Times of Israel.In addition, Saudi Arabia will expect a significant concession to the Palestinians in order to solidify any normalization deal, the officials said.On the state of Iran’s nuclear program, the Israeli leader repeated his refrain that “We’ll do whatever we need to do to defend ourselves.”In recent weeks there have been growing reports of potential progress between Tehran and Washington on a new nuclear deal to limit Iran’s nuclear work, which Israel, distrustful of such agreements, has been following with concern.On Thursday the White House denied reports that an interim deal was near as “false and misleading.”Netanyahu said: “I don’t think that diplomacy by itself will work. I think diplomacy can only work if it’s coupled with a credible military threat or the willingness to apply the military option if deterrence fails.”He added: “Iran is openly committed to destroying, repeating the Holocaust and destroying the six or seven million Jews of Israel and we’re not going to sit by, idly by and let them do it.”Asked whether he agrees with controversial past comments of his new media adviser Gilad Zwick, including that US President Joe Biden is “destroying America,” Netanyahu said: “No, and he has himself said these are views he held as a private journalist and that he has since changed his views, otherwise he wouldn’t be working for me.“I think Joe Biden is a great friend of Israel, He’s the president of the United States of America and we work with him as we worked with other presidents, and we have confidence in the choices that America makes.”Netanyahu has yet to receive an invitation to visit the White House, six months after entering office, amid tensions with Washington over his government’s intensely divisive efforts to curb the power of the courts and hand greater authority to governing coalitions.The judicial overhaul has been frozen since late March as the coalition and opposition attempt to negotiate a compromise following intense public protests by those who believe it will destroy Israeli democracy.Asked on the matter, the premier said: “It seems to me we have a situation where there is now a fairly broad majority that says we have to reform our judicial system, but the question is how much and how fast? And that is something that I decided… to try and get a consensus [on].“I’m not sure we will get one. We have to bring it into a happy middle. It’s going to be very hard because it’s extremely politicized and often misrepresented.”Jacob Magid contributed to this report.

Palestinian Authority President Abbas to visit China next week-China has sought to position itself as a Middle East mediator after brokering the restoration of ties in March between Iran and Saudi Arabia-By AFP 9 June 2023, 3:07 pm

BEIJING — Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas will make a state visit to China next week, Beijing said Friday, after China expressed readiness to help facilitate Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.Beijing has positioned itself as a mediator in the Middle East, brokering the restoration of ties in March between Iran and Saudi Arabia — rivals in a region where the United States has for decades been the main powerbroker.“At the invitation of President Xi Jinping, president of the state of Palestine Mahmoud Abbas will pay a state visit to China from June 13 to 16,” foreign ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said Friday. “He is the first Arab head of state received by China this year, fully embodying the high level of China-Palestine good relations, which have traditionally been friendly,” ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin told a regular briefing later.Abbas is an “old and good friend of the Chinese people,” he added.“China has always firmly supported the just cause of the Palestinian people to restore their legitimate national rights.”Beijing has sought to boost its ties to the Middle East, challenging longstanding US influence there — efforts that have drawn rebukes from Washington.Xi last December visited Saudi Arabia on an Arab outreach visit that also saw him meet with Abbas and pledge to “work for an early, just and durable solution to the Palestinian issue.”And during a trip to Riyadh this week, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Saudi Arabia was not being forced to choose between Washington and Beijing, striking a conciliatory tone following tensions with the long-time ally.Blinken has also this week sought to mediate Israel-Palestinian tension, urging Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to undermine prospects for a Palestinian state.Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations have been stalled since 2014.In April, Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang told his Israeli and Palestinian counterparts that his country was willing to aid peace negotiations, Xinhua reported.And Qin told Palestinian foreign minister Riyad Al-Maliki that Beijing supports the resumption of talks as soon as possible, according to the state news agency.In both calls Qin emphasized China’s push for peace talks on the basis of implementing a “two-state solution.”“The Palestinian issue is the core of the Middle East issue. It bears on peace and stability in the Middle East and on international fairness and justice.”

'An indefinite delay, effectively canceling the matter' Netanyahu delays meeting on ‘doomsday’ E1 settlement project amid US pressure-Israel notifies Biden administration of decision after PM holds call with Blinken to discuss Saudi normalization-By Jacob Magid 9 June 2023, 5:38 pm

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered that a meeting next week to advance the highly controversial E1 settlement project be postponed amid pressure from the Biden administration, two officials said.Israel notified the US of its decision on Thursday following a phone call Netanyahu held with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, a US official told The Times of Israel on Friday, confirming a report in the Axios news site.“This is an indefinite delay, effectively canceling the matter,” a Western official familiar with the matter told The Times of Israel.The US official said that the Biden administration has been working to have the E1 project removed from the agenda for weeks. Netanyahu’s office did not respond to repeated requests for comment.While the E1 project was not mentioned in either side’s readout of Thursday’s call, the State Department said Blinken raised “the need to uphold the commitments made at regional meetings in Aqaba, Jordan and Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt to avoid measures that undermine the prospects for a two-state solution.”The Palestinians have in recent weeks accused Israel of violating the commitments made in late February, which included a four-month freeze on holding meetings to advance new settlement homes and a six-month freeze on legalizing new outposts.Israel argues that it technically hasn’t done either, but it has green-lit construction in East Jerusalem and illegally also transferred a yeshiva in the northern West Bank in what will make way for the legalization of the Homesh outpost.Next Monday’s hearing on E1 appeared to also pose a violation of Israel’s commitment in Aqaba, even though the session was to discuss legal objections to the project, rather than to advance it through more significant planning stages.But given that most petitions against settlement projects are rejected, Monday’s hearing would’ve marked an effective advancement of the E1 project.The potential construction of a new neighborhood for the Ma’ale Adumim settlement in the so-called E1 zone has long been cause for alarm in the international community. It would divide the West Bank into northern and southern regions and prevent the development of a Palestinian metropolis that connects East Jerusalem to Bethlehem and Ramallah, which the Palestinians have long hoped would serve as the foundation of their future state.The date for Monday’s hearing had been set after Jerusalem had agreed to put off a March session due to the same types of international pressure, including from the US, the EU and others. The previous government also sought to hold the objections committee hearing on at least three occasions but agreed to kick the can down the road, albeit never torpedoing the project completely.But delays during the tenure of the current government may well be more difficult for Netanyahu to secure, given his many pro-settler coalition partners who are determined to expand Israel’s settler footprint and block Palestinian contiguity in the process.However, Netanyahu is also determined to sign a normalization agreement with Saudi Arabia, which was the main topic of conversation during his Thursday call with Blinken.The premier ostensibly recognizes that further entrenching Israel’s presence beyond the Green Line and angering the Biden administration, who are needed to expand the Abraham Accords, will not help his cause.Accordingly, he has taken a number of steps in recent months to reign in his hardline political allies, including withdrawing a decision to fire Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and bar Jews from visiting the flashpoint Temple Mount during the end of Ramadan.However, critics warn that steps Netanyahu takes to heed US demands regarding the West Bank on one issue often require concessions to settlers on a different front; they point to last month’s move to legalize the flashpoint Homesh outpost as the latest example.If the hearing on E1 is indeed held, and the objections are waived — as such petitions often are — the project will still require several additional approvals before ground can be broken, a process that generally takes months, if not years. Still, each step in the process makes such projects more difficult to prevent — and clearing the E1 plan through the objection stage would mark a major win for settler leaders.For almost three decades, Israel has been pushing the project, which critics have dubbed the “doomsday settlement.”The project contains two plans north of Ma’ale Adumim totaling 3,426 homes that were prepared by the government of former prime minister Yitzhak Rabin in 1994 and advanced through an early planning stage called “deposit” in 2004 by the Civil Administration, the Defense Ministry body responsible for authorizing settlement construction. Then-prime minister Ariel Sharon dropped the plans upon the request of US president George W. Bush. In 2012, Netanyahu greenlit the resurrection of the plan, but it was later frozen amid international pressure.

US: Iran helping Russia build a drone factory east of Moscow for Ukraine war-White House says new facility could be up and running early next year as Moscow seeks to ensure a steady supply of arms for its invasion-By AAMER MADHANI 9 June 2023, 5:38 pm

WASHINGTON (AP) — Iran is providing Russia with materials to build a drone manufacturing plant east of Moscow as the Kremlin looks to lock in a steady supply of weaponry for its ongoing invasion of Ukraine, according to a US intelligence finding released by the White House on Friday.National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said that US intelligence officials believe a plant in Russia’s Alabuga special economic zone could be operational early next year. The White House also released satellite imagery taken in April of the industrial location, several hundred miles east of Moscow, where it believes the plant “will probably be built.”US President Joe Biden’s administration publicly stated in December that it believed Tehran and Moscow were considering standing up a drone assembly line in Russia for the Ukraine war. The new intelligence suggests that the project, in the Yelabuga region of Tatarstan, has moved beyond conception.Iran has said it provided drones to Russia before the start of the war but not since.Kirby said that US officials also have determined that Iran continues to supply the Russian military with one-way attack drones made in Iran: The drones are shipped via the Caspian Sea, from Amirabad in Iran to Makhachkala, Russia, and then are used by Russian forces against Ukraine.As of May, Russia had received hundreds of one-way attack drones, as well as drone production-related equipment, from Iran, according to the White House.“This is a full-scale defense partnership that is harmful to Ukraine, to Iran’s neighbors, and to the international community,” Kirby said. “We are continuing to use all the tools at our disposal to expose and disrupt these activities including by sharing this with the public — and we are prepared to do more.”The Biden administration on Friday issued an advisory meant to help businesses and other governments put in place measures to ensure they are not inadvertently contributing to Iran’s drone program.The notice from the departments of Commerce, State, Justice and Treasury said it was “critical that private industry be aware of its legal obligations” to abide by US export controls and sanctions.The United States, the European Union and the United Kingdom in recent months all have issued rules designed to cut off the flow of drone components to Russia and Iran.The Biden administration has repeatedly publicized intelligence findings that detail how Iran is assisting the Russian invasion.The persistent drip of intelligence findings from the administration is intended to detail what US officials say is a deepening defense partnership between Russia and Iran. It’s also part of a broader administration effort to spotlight Moscow’s prosecution of its war in Ukraine in hopes of further promoting global isolation of Russia.The White House last month said Russia was looking to buy additional advanced attack drones from Iran after using up most of the 400 drones it had previously purchased from Tehran.The Biden administration last year first publicized satellite imagery and intelligence findings that it said indicated Iran sold hundreds of attack drones to Russia. For months, officials have said the United States believed Iran was considering selling hundreds of ballistic missiles to Russia, but White House officials have said they do not have evidence a deal was consummated.The White House has noted that Iran also has weapons flowing its way from Russia.Iran is seeking to purchase additional military equipment from Russia, including attack helicopters, radars and YAK-130 combat trainer aircraft, according to the White House. In April, Iran announced that it had finalized a deal to buy Su-35 fighter jets from Russia.

Oz Forensics strikes up new European partnership with Bewor Tech-Jun 9, 2023, 11:40 am EDT    | Masha Borak

Oz Forensics, specializing in biometric and deepfake fraud, will provide its technology to Spanish digital identity solutions provider Bewor Tech, operating throughout Europe.Bewor Tech plans to use the company’s products, Oz Liveness used for liveness detection, and Oz Biometry, the face recognition module which, according to the company, achieved one of the best test results in accuracy on the LFW dataset in the University of Massachusetts tests in 2020.Oz Forensics is based in Dubai and Almaty, Kazakhstan. Last year, the company helped Kazakhstan-based Eurasian Bank onboard over 1 million clients alongside expanding to South America after partnering with Mototech. In February, the firm launched a Reseller Partner Program, allowing businesses to sell its liveness with other biometrics and IT products.Bewor Tech has offices in Madrid and Granada and operates Know Your Customer (KYC) and digital signature solution Rubicae. The company’s co-founder Vicente Serrano praised the speed and accuracy of Oz Forensic’ liveness detection.“We are proud to have been able to provide our top-notch biometric solutions, including Oz Liveness, to Bewor Tech,” says Oz Forensics CEO Artem Gerasimov. “Our solutions are designed to meet the most stringent security requirements, and we are proud to help Bewor Tech to enhance their identity verification and security processes.”

Canada introduces new airport traveller verification program-Jun 5, 2023, 4:59 pm EDT-| Chris Burt

Canada’s aviation security authority is launching a new program to reduce how long it takes passengers to pass through airport screening processes without reducing security.The new Verified Travellers program, operated by the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA),  is available to people who carry a range of special photo ID cards related to travel. Those include members of the NEXUS and Global Entry programs, military and aviation personnel, and Canadian police.The government has earmarked approximately CA$1.8 billion (roughly US$1.34 billion) over the next five years for the project in Canada’s 2023 budget proposal, according to a government announcement.The agency describes three different sets of benefits Canadians participating in the program will experience when passing through screening checkpoints. Participating travellers can leave more items in their carry-on luggage and remove less articles of clothing and personal effects during screening,The program will replace the Canada’s ‘Trusted Traveller’ program, going live by June 21, 2023 at Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg, and Montreal-Trudeau International Airports, as well as Toronto-Pearson International Terminals 1 and 3.A ‘front-of-the-line’ service is also part of the program, and operates at the above airports plus a handful of others across the country.Transport Minister Omar Alghabra says the program will “help combat congestion at our airports,” while improving the security screening process for travellers.“CATSA values its partnership with Transport Canada and airport authorities across Canada,” says CATSA President and CEO Nada Semaan. “Their support and collaboration in the implementation of an improved passenger experience through the new Verified Traveller program is instrumental to improving security-screening services for all passengers.”Canadian airports are digitizing rapidly, with Regina International Airport and Region of Waterloo International Airport each adding check-in and self-bag drop systems from SITA.The kiosks and self-service stations do not appear to include biometric capabilities, the announcement say they will make it easier to integrate contactless processes and biometrics in the future.Three other Canadian airports announced adoption of the same systems from SITA last year.

NADRA adds iris to automated biometric identification platform with Iris ID-Jun 5, 2023, 12:27 pm EDT-| Ayang Macdonald

Pakistan’s National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has introduced iris biometrics as the third ID verification option on its Automated Biometric Identification System (ABIS), calling it a “landmark achievement.”A video promoting the modality’s addition clearly depicts the use of an iCAM R100 series scanner from Iris ID to capture a subject’s iris biometrics.Dubbed IRIS, the system will enable government departments and financial institutions in the country to reliably carry out ID verification, NADRA said in a statement shared with Biometric Update. It called the move a great leap forward in its in relentless efforts in enhancing secure and accurate citizen identification.Before now, NADRA ran the Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) and facial recognition for ID verification and authentication.The Authority says the iris scan, with its low false match rates, is a supplementary method which will add another layer of security to the functionality of the other two options.NADRA says it has deployed the technology at its mega centers at Islamabad, PECO Road Lahore and DHK Karachi for more user acceptance testing after a successful pilot at its headquarters. The system, which will soon be rolled out in all 700 NADRA registration centres, eliminates the fear of double registration and identity theft.Underlining the significance of the development, NADRA Chairman Tariq Malik says iris scans deliver precision, enhanced security and efficiency in the way ID verification is done.“Whether it’s government services, financial institutions, or any other industry that deals with sensitive information, identity verification is a critical aspect of ensuring the integrity and security of our systems,” says Malik.“With the IRIS biometric technology, we are taking a major step forward in streamlining and fortifying the processes of secure identification.”A key novelty the IRIS system brings is the registration of children whose iris will be captured for ID enrollment purposes. Experts say the iris of a child doesn’t change as they grow old.NADRA recently launched the Nishan Pakistan platform to leverage its ID stack.In a NADRA-related story meanwhile, the Governor of Nigeria’s Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, met with the head of Business Development at NADRA, Sheharyar Ajmal Khan, on the sidelines of the recent ID4Africa meeting in Nairobi to discuss avenues for future collaboration on digital transformation projects.Obaseki spoke about his state’s residence ID card project at the event, and expressed the wish for NADRA to accompany them in the implementation of the project, Nigerian daily Punch reports.The Edo state residence ID card project was launched in 2022 and one million cards are expected to be issued by 2024.The government of Kenya is also looking to Nadra for expertise and collaboration as it makes changes to its digital ID system.

Live biometrics checks ‘the only way’ to prevent identity scams in finance-Thailand pivots to biometrics, and India and UK look towards crypto crime-Jun 9, 2023, 12:01 pm EDT-| William McCurdy

In a recent podcast from PaymentsJournal, Micheal Sheehy, chief compliance officer at payments firm Payoneer, pointed to large-scale recent fraud cases such as the Equifax data breach, Covid unemployment scams, and PPP loans, saying that it has “really become obvious that the only way to prevent this fraud is a live biometric check.”The exec argued for the benefits of mixing biometric data with digital identity highlighting how a government database can be used to access digital IDs and by “cross-checking it with a biometric test, you can tie the two of them together.”Sheehy also pointed out how some Asian economies are fairly far ahead of the West when it comes to implementing biometrics for fraud prevention.“Singapore and Malaysia have actually mandated biometrics in their KYC,” he explains. “They’re telling the financial institutions in those markets, if your customers are not in front of you when you’re selling financial products, you need to have a liveness and KYC check.”He added: “They go so far as to claim that they will not accept identity theft as a typology within their economy anymore.”During the podcast, Sherry also expressed his desire for a more government-led approach to ensuring biometric authentication takes root in the U.S.“Right now, regulation of biometrics is at the state level,” he argues. “We need more of a federal mandate, which I believe is coming.”“Until then, it’s kind of the Wild Wild West.”The exec said he feels these regulations could come as part of the upcoming Consumer Data Privacy Act, which is currently being put together by U.S. Congress.In addition, Sheehy points to how he feels biometric technology has improved in the past few years, saying we have seen a “significant change” over the past half-decade, from then consumers “were just taking pictures of their IDs and uploading them and applying for mortgages.”Focus on biometric authentication grows-Biometric authentication of financial services to improve security is also picking up support elsewhere. An article in the Taiwanese publication Taiwan News highlighted some benefits of biometrics for these use cases.The article pointed to benefits such as increased protection from social engineering or guesswork attacks, as well as more convenience for consumers who do not want to use lengthy passwords, as well as a higher level of consumer trust.The news comes as public sector bodies in the UK are acknowledging the potential role of crypto transfers in economic crime.A recent report by the UK’s Crypto and Digital Assets All Party Parliamentary Group has found that “growth of the cryptocurrency and digital asset sector, without comprehensive regulation, also presents considerable risks, particularly in terms of consumer protection, economic crime, and financial stability.”In terms of the next steps outlined, the report urges the UK to capitalize on its “finite window of opportunity within the next 12-18 months” by establishing proper leadership with appoint of a “crypto Tzar,” who would address issues across departments and bodies to ensure proper implementation.The report repeatedly acknowledged the role of crypto within economic crime but highlighted large potential benefits to the UK economy.Recent news seems to have vindicated Sheehy’s point regarding Asian nations being further ahead when it comes to biometrics.Thailand’s Deputy Government Spokesperson Traisuree Taisaranakul has said that all commercial and government banks will start to use biometric facial recognition as a security protocol.According to reporting by regional publication Pattaya Mail, from July onwards consumers transferring over 50,000 baht via mobile banking accounts will need to use facial recognition to verify their identities.The limitation will also apply to those who are transferring over 200,000 baht per day.As per the reports, consumers who have not yet enrolled in the biometrics scheme may have to get in touch with their bank to add their facial scans.Traisuree highlighted have this move is merely part of a basket of measures meant to shore up banking security in the nation, for example, consumers in Thailand will no longer be able to receive web links contained in text messages from their banks for security reasons.Thailand has previously been quite forward-thinking when it comes to digital identity.Back in January 2023 of this year, the nation commenced a pilot program that saw Thai citizens issued a digital ID via a mobile app.Up to 10 million of these digital IDs are expected to be issued this year as per reporting by Bangkok Post and administrations have been told not to deny services to those using these digital IDs.It is not just the West that is looking to shore up identity verification practices when it comes to crypto transfers.Indian crypto exchanges, as per a report by the Economic Times, are currently working on a scheme that will prohibit crypto transfers unless the sender can reveal the identity of the private wallet receiving the transaction.A ‘private wallet’ in cryptocurrency, is a wallet that is completely controlled by the owner, as opposed to a ‘public wallet’ where the crypto is held on an exchange such as Binance, Coinbase, or Crypto.com.In India, as exchanges are forced by law to verify the identities of their users via KYC checks, the identities of those engaging in transfers between these public wallets can be verified.However, under current law, this would not be the case if the transfer was made to a private wallet.This latest move could potentially grant these crypto exchanges a degree of immunity as per The Economic Times, in the event of an anti-money laundering crackdown by the regulator.The role of cryptocurrency within the world of money laundering has already been firmly established.Internationally, cryptocurrency addresses linked to illegal activity sent almost $23.8 billion worth of cryptocurrency in 2022, according to a report by Crypto analytics firm Chainaysis, with a majority heading toward mainstream exchanges.

How advances in ID proofing and decentralization are changing the game-UX in the digital age-Jun 9, 2023, 11:46 am EDT-| Nir Stern-By Nir Stern, VP product management at AU10TIX

Businesses are moving a growing number and variety of transactions online, and this digital transformation has increased the importance of user experience (UX) in driving customer acquisition and retention. As a result, many companies are working with technology vendors to design and implement processes, systems, and strategies that contribute to a positive and seamless user experience.However, one critical aspect is still often overlooked: the UX of digital identity proofing, which involves verifying an individual’s identity before granting access to services or sensitive information.The UX problem-Organizations operating in complex and geographically diverse environments must be able to manage risks and comply with regulations, but traditional methods of verifying ID can be cumbersome. They often involve time-consuming manual processes, such as physically checking identification documents. This can cause delays in onboarding or accessing services, ultimately leading to high drop-off rates.To address these challenges, businesses are increasingly turning to fully automated vendors that provide streamlined and efficient solutions for identity verification. By leveraging advanced technologies like artificial intelligence and machine learning, these vendors enable organizations to offer a streamlined and accelerated customer experience while ensuring compliance with regulations.Moreover, full automation enables scalable solutions that can adapt to the needs of organizations operating in diverse geographical locations, handle high volumes of verification requests efficiently, and ensure a seamless and consistent user experience even during peak periods.Benefits of decentralized IDs-As organizations increasingly recognize the importance of ensuring the safety of digital identities, decentralized IDs are emerging as a promising solution. This approach enables individuals and organizations to have unique and persistent identities that are not controlled by any central authority.Decentralized IDs offer efficient verification of users’ identities with digital credentials that are easily shared across different platforms and applications. This innovative approach allows businesses to streamline the identity proofing process, manage risk, and enhance regulatory compliance. It also offers tamper-proof, scalable and enhanced data protection for users. This smooth user experience makes identity verification efficient, secure, and user-friendly.Use cases-The potential applications of decentralized IDs span industries such as healthcare, banking and e-commerce. In healthcare, patients can store their medical records in a decentralized ID, allowing them to be easily shared with different providers. In banking, decentralized IDs streamline KYC, allowing customers to maintain control over their personal information and share it with financial institutions as needed.For online payments and e-commerce, decentralized IDs can facilitate secure and private online transactions. Users can associate their payment information, such as credit card details or cryptocurrency wallets, with their digital identity and selectively share it with merchants or service providers when making purchases. This reduces the risk of credit card fraud, minimizes the amount of personal data exposed to third parties, and simplifies the checkout process, resulting in a smoother and more secure UX.Overcoming implementation barriers-Implementing decentralized IDs can be challenging, particularly in industries where established identity verification processes are already in place. Furthermore, in highly regulated industries such as finance and healthcare, businesses must comply with stringent oversight to ensure that customer data is kept secure and confidential. At the same time, they need to provide a smooth UX to customers who are increasingly accustomed to the ease and convenience of digital services.To overcome these issues, investment is needed. The ID verification industry must develop a comprehensive strategy incorporating advanced technology, security measures, and user-friendly design. Collaboration across industries and stakeholders will be crucial to developing standardized solutions that are interoperable across platforms and frameworks.Decentralized IDs have the potential to improve the user experience and make identity verification more secure and efficient. They offer seamless interaction, scalability, and interoperational ease, facilitating the use of identities across different platforms and services. As more businesses and industries embrace these new technologies, we can expect to see more widespread adoption and innovation in this space, making the future of identity verification UX look even more promising.

Everyone has an opinion about AI policies and regulations-EU vote preceded by strife, while UK and Canada pursue ways forward-Jun 8, 2023, 11:32 pm EDT    | Joel R. McConvey

The European Union’s plenary vote on the AI Act is June 14, but a political skirmish around remote biometric surveillance has derailed the European Parliament’s unity on exceptions in the legislation, says Euractiv.The parliament’s four main political parties agreed in April not to table amendments. But the center-right European People’s Party (EPP) was granted an exception that allows flexibility on issues regarding remote biometric identification. That has caused friction with the other parties, which accuse the EPP of breaking the deal and pushing changes that put marginalized communities at higher risk and could compromise individual privacy.Euractiv says it talked to an unnamed European parliamentary official who said the EPP needs to take responsibility for how they have exploited the flexibility granted to them on remote biometrics. “The agreement was no group amendments,” the source reportedly said, referring to how the EPP’s actions put voting out of reach of the other voting blocs. Fearing a domino effect among other groups seeking changes to the text, the official said that now, “anything is possible.”A representative from the EPP claims the issue is fake news. The flexibility gives them the right to table the amendments. The proposed amendments amount to a reversal of a previous compromise banning live use of remote biometric identification in public spaces, the source reportedly said. The EPP’s changes expand the allowable use cases beyond jury-approved investigations of serious crimes to include locating a missing person and a suspect of a serious crime – and most controversial, preventing terrorist attacks.Although the EPP’s text mentions preapprovals and safeguards, it contrasts with the left-leaning parties’ preference for a total ban on remote biometric identification.Opposition calls foul on prevention ‘myths’One issue facing lawmakers is how to define and classify the risk and benefit of various AI applications. In response to the EPP’s amendments, Patrick Breyer, a member of parliament representing the Pirate Party, tabled a coalition-driven counter-amendment to ban any AI system billed as performing behavioral analysis.In a post on his site, Breyer argues that “contrary to a conservative myth, there is not a single example of biometric real-time surveillance ever having prevented a terrorist attack or other events of this kind.“The EPP’s proposed ‘exceptions’ to the ban would, in fact, justify the pervasive deployment of facial surveillance technology,” he writes. “We must not normalize a culture of mistrust and side with authoritarian regimes that use AI to suppress civil society!”Additional amendments suggested by members of parliament seek bans on predictive policing, AI threat assessments on migrants and AI forecasts of movement across borders.UK looks for its own agreement on regulation-Across the English Channel, United Kingdom regulators likewise continue to circle and sniff at AI regulations. There is talk of an AI summit among the UK home nations, reports Futurescot.In a letter to Innovation Minister Richard Lochhead, Scotland’s biometrics commissioner, Brian Plastow, has argued for “coherent UK thinking” on the “acute ethical challenges” presented by AI.“Without legislation, regulation, and effective independent oversight, businesses, consumers and the public sector may be nervous about adopting AI,” Plastow wrote. It could also lead to “unethical experimentation. Therefore, building public confidence and trust is essential if we are to capitalise on the many benefits that AI has to offer.”Plastow rejects a total ban like the one being discussed in the EU, arguing instead that remote biometric identification can be useful to law enforcement.Ontario’s privacy commissioner challenges govt to step up on AI-Canada’s largest province is also joining the conversation, with the release of the privacy commissioner’s annual report. The document urges Ontario’s typically regulation-averse government to show leadership on the use of AI in the public sector.In a release, Privacy Commissioner Patricia Kosseim urged the government to continue “pressing forward with a robust, granular and binding framework for the responsible use of artificial intelligence technologies by public sector organizations.”“Clear and effective guardrails are needed to ensure the benefits of AI do not come at the cost of Ontarians’ privacy and other fundamental human rights,” said Kosseim. “Ontarians might want their public sector institutions to deploy AI technologies for the public good, but only if it is safe, transparent, accountable, and ethically responsible.” Echoing Scotland’s Plastow, she emphasized that “innovative uses of AI must be supported and sustained by public trust.”The report also called on the government to make a potential digital ID system in Ontario both optional and equitably accessible, and to place strong restrictions and security measures in place to minimize privacy risk.Venture capitalist says to calm down about AI, urges innovation-While some of the regulatory has come from some tech elites warning about the existential risks AI presents, Silicon Valley billionaire Marc Andreessen, who coded the early Mosaic browser and co-founded Netscape, urges calm. People are needlessly “freaking out.”He has even accused fellow tech gurus of trying to rig public policy on AI to their advantage. Their goal, Andreessen has said, is “a cartel of government-blessed AI vendors protected from new startup and open-source competition.”Published on Andreessen’s Substack feed, the 7,000-word rejoinder to “AI doomers,” Why AI Will Save the World, lays out the mechanical and operational facts of AI as he sees them, arguing that it is no threat.“AI is a computer program like any other,” writes Andreessen. “It runs, takes input, processes, and generates output. AI’s output is useful across a wide range of fields, ranging from coding to medicine to law to the creative arts. It is owned by people and controlled by people, like any other technology.”Calling the current climate one of “full-blown moral panic about AI,” he says that public concerns are “already being used as a motivating force by a variety of actors to demand policy action – new-AI restrictions, regulations, and laws.” Andreessen says this is choking innovation-Andreessen is as strident in his position as are “doomers.” His post talks about how “AI can make everything we care about better” and “AI is quite possibly the most important – and best – thing our civilization has ever created.” Andreessen sees a future in which every child has an AI tutor that “will be by each child’s side every step of their development, helping them maximize their potential with the machine version of infinite love.”In light of the ongoing Writers’ Guild strike in Hollywood, which is partly about the economic risk of AI to writers, Andreessen’s statement on creative work is of particular note. “The creative arts will enter a golden age,” he says, “as AI-augmented artists, musicians, writers, and filmmakers gain the ability to realize their visions far faster and at greater scale than ever before.”If, as some believe, winning public trust in AI is essential for its adoption, visions like Andreessen’s may not sway the argument – after all, recent history has many examples of cringey prophetic announcements about information technology.However, he is likely correct when he states that “AI is already around us in the form of computer control systems of many kinds, is now rapidly escalating with AI Large Language Models like ChatGPT, and will accelerate very quickly from here – if we let it.”

Coughers identified in algorithm study-Jun 9, 2023, 11:16 am EDT-| Jim Nash

It is a development that begs the question, what bodily function will not be turned into a biometric identifier.Researchers from the University of Washington and Google have written code that reportedly is pretty good at identifying who among a group of subjects is coughing. It could be used in diagnosing and treating cystic fibrosis, tuberculosis and asthma.It might even work on populations that have a future form of Covid.Their paper claims that their model correctly classifies the noise 82.15 percent of the time. The researchers went beyond that, using an algorithm trained on speech, something that already has been done. Speech code “performed reasonably well on forced coughs,” according to the paper’s authors.They instead used multi-task learning. The second task was biometric speaker verification among four subjects from a dataset of natural, in-the-wild coughing.The algorithm bested humans doing the same task by 9.8 percent, according to the authors.Ultimately, the researchers found that they can on average outperform human listeners on the four-way classification task with 10 enrollment samples.A researcher behind a similar paper published earlier this year told Wired that while the algorithms can have practical value for health applications, but may need further development to be used as a biometric.

EU rights agency says impact of large biometric systems ‘partly unknown’Jun 8, 2023, 4:46 pm EDT-| Masha Borak

Europe has had a difficult 2022: The war in Ukraine has brought a flood of refugees to the European Union nation-states while policymakers have been trying to tackle major technological advances. A new report by the EU Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA) lays out the effects that these developments have had on human rights, including an analysis of European IT systems that rely on personal information such as biometric data.The EU is developing six large-scale IT systems designed to process personal data of third-country nationals, including biometric data. They are designed to support border management, asylum procedures and internal security.The Vienna-based agency has an advisory role within the EU. In its report, published on Thursday, FRA outlined recommendations to establish a mechanism for an independent review of its large-scale IT system. A role model for the mechanism could be the Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation in the United Kingdom.“Numerous safeguards embedded in EU law are intended to mitigate the risks of fundamental rights violations, provided they are adequately implemented,” says the FRA report “However, the EU IT systems are just coming into operation, and we are still discovering how several aspects work together. Their potentially vast impact on fundamental rights therefore remains partly unknown.”Multiple EU agencies are currently finalizing the regulation of three new IT systems with a deadline set at the end of this year. This includes the Entry/Exit System (EES), the European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) and the European Criminal Records Information System for Third-Country Nationals (ECRIS-TCN).The EU is also working on making its IT systems interoperable with the help of its eu-LISA agency ( European Union Agency for the Operational Management of Large-Scale IT Systems in the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice).One example of this interoperability is detecting multiple identities with the help of biometric data. Currently, this task is handled by EU border agency Frontex and EU member states with member states expected to take over in the future. However, several states, including Belgium, Demark and Czechia, have issued complaints, opinions and investigations over data privacy and issues such as errors in matching.FRA said that it aims to launch an online awareness-raising tool to provide information on the EU’s IT systems in early 2024.The agency also raised questions about the Passenger Name Records (PNR) Directive which aims to regulate the transfer of PNR data from the airlines to national authorities, as well as their processing of this data.“The PNR Directive entails serious interferences with the rights to privacy and data protection, as it seeks to introduce a surveillance regime that is continuous, untargeted, and systematic, including the automated assessment of all air passengers’ personal data. Given that, EU fundamental rights law requires that authorities’ powers provided for by the directive be limited to what is strictly necessary,” FRA says in the report.

‘Being open’ for achieving global interoperability in digital public infrastructure-Jun 8, 2023, 10:11 am EDT-| Jaume Dubois-By Jaume Dubois,  CEO of ID30

In a digital world that connects everyone for everything, establishing global interoperability across entities, sectors, and countries becomes an imperative.I want to emphasize the importance and the meaning of “being open,” a guiding message of Dr. Joseph Atick for the ID4Africa Annual General Meeting Segment 3 on Interoperability.I recall how in 2018, ID4Africa began raising awareness about the urgency of breaking silos, addressing vendor lock-in, and fostering inclusion. However, it was the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic that forced us to realize that these aspirations must be more than wishes.During the ID4Africa 2023 AGM, we heard insightful experiences from countries such as India, Pakistan, Gabon, Somalia, and many others. These nations recognize the urgency of building mutualized and open infrastructures that can support digital services in both public and private sectors.As highlighted by Pramod Varda during the ID4Africa conference, governments need to “Think Infrastructure,” they cannot embark on full-scale digital transformation alone. Instead, they must adopt an infrastructure-oriented approach, focusing on building enablers and allowing public and private entities to create solutions on top of them.The need for global interoperability“BEING OPEN” is a prerequisite for achieving global interoperability in between infrastructures and solutions and the ID4Africa 2023 AGM’s Segment 3 participants unanimously agreed that interoperability is of utmost importance and should rely on standards.While we witnessed various approaches during the AGM, such as OSIA, MOSIP, GovStack, G2P Connect, and India Stack, there remains a need for convergence among these different initiatives.And currently, there is no complete consensus on globally agreed interoperability standards, despite addressing the same objective of building DPIs. There should be convergence to avoid countries having to make a choice.In my unique position, at the intersection of several key initiatives, I can see the gaps also understand the obstacles. I trust I am well-equipped to facilitate convergence among these efforts.For achieving global interoperability, we can analyze the enabling factors of successful convergence initiatives.Firstly, OpenID Connect was highlighted as a consensus for interoperability of identity verification during the AGM. It is widely adopted globally because it is simple, it uses common technologies, sector-agnostic, and already in use across various domains. As Gail Hodges, executive director at the OpenID Foundation, aptly said, OpenID Connect is “everybody’s friend.”Secondly, the rise of Digital Wallets and the support for W3C Verifiable Credentials presented during the AGM will contribute to progress in global interoperability. These credentials are simple to issue and use with common devices, providing security, privacy protection, and sector-agnostic capabilities.Lastly, GovStack applies the best principles and integrates the best worldwide approaches to design technology-agnostic and interoperable Building Block specifications. We have received contributions from esteemed entities such as Estonia, India, Europe, the UK, Singapore, and various countries in Africa. With a holistic government approach, our aim is to prioritize interoperability before seeking specific solutions. The involvement of the International Telecommunication Union adds the necessary legitimacy and relevance to foster the emergence of required global interoperability.Conclusion-In conclusion, the success of interoperability standards is directly linked to their simplicity and public availability of required technologies.Furthermore, hosting these standards under a technology-agnostic body has proven to be effective.It is worth noting that global interoperability is not achieved by imposing solutions but rather emerging from a consensual open debate.Recommendations-1/ As we move forward, it is crucial for governments to approach identity as an infrastructure rather than as a standalone solution. 2/ Global interoperability will not be built solely by good leaders but by good listeners, fostering a “being open” mindset.3/ To facilitate the establishment of global interoperability, it is vital that non-solution providers take the lead and align their efforts with governments.Entities like GovStack, the OpenID Foundation, and ID4Africa are well-suited to host and moderate the emergence of these global standards.Together, let us embrace openness, collaboration, and interoperability to unlock the full potential of digital transformation for all.About the author-I’m Jaume Dubois, the CEO of ID30, a public digital transformation advisory company. We re-balance the strengths between government teams and their interfaces, we assist governments in building their digital plans and navigating the complex landscape of digital solutions.I also have the privilege of leading the Identity Building Block workgroup at GovStack. Together, we accelerate countries’ digital transformation by preparing the interoperability of key building blocks that form an open and robust Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI). Through the delivery of specifications and APIs, for ensuring that candidate building blocks will be interoperable.Moreover, I serve as a Technical Advisor for ANID in Togo, supporting their efforts in the rollout of the open source MOSIP as part of the WURI program.DISCLAIMER: Biometric Update’s Industry Insights are submitted content.

Mixed progress for digital IDs linked to payments in Japan, Australia and India-Jun 9, 2023, 11:36 am EDT    | Alessandro Mascellino

In a wave of digital transformations across multiple nations, Japan has faced challenges with its My Number digital ID system, Australia has introduced a new strategic plan for payments, and India’s Aadhaar authentication has expanded support for Google Pay with a new feature.130k Japan My Number IDs linked to incorrect bank accounts-Japan’s ‘My Number’ national digital ID system has encountered new issues as it was discovered that multiple IDs were mistakenly linked to family members’ bank accounts instead of their rightful holders.According to NHK reporting, the country’s Digital Agency conducted an inspection of approximately 54 million My Number IDs associated with bank accounts for various benefits. The agency identified roughly 130,000 cases where an individual’s My Number ID was linked to a family member’s bank account.Additionally, they also discovered 748 cases where bank accounts were erroneously connected to a stranger’s ID.The Digital Agency plans to address these issues with revised legislation by June 2025 as it considers the development of a new system for accurate name matching.Digital Transformation Minister Kono Taro apologized on Wednesday and urged prompt corrections for those who registered their bank accounts incorrectly.Australia publishes new strategic plan for payment systems-The Australian government has released a new strategic plan to transform the country’s payments system into a modern, world-class, and efficient platform.Key priorities include strengthening cybersecurity defenses, reducing scams and fraud, updating the payments regulatory framework, phasing out cheques, upgrading payment systems, and maintaining access to cash.The plan also emphasizes promoting competition, productivity, and innovation across the economy via initiatives like aligning payment objectives with the Consumer Data Right framework and supporting the country’s broader use of digital IDs, which was identified by stakeholders as “a key digital economy initiative that could help build trust in the payments system.”The report added that digital ID “will be a key enabler of the digital economy, driving greater efficiency in online interactions by streamlining identity verification processes.”In the 2023-24 fiscal year, the Government has allocated a significant investment of AU$26.9 million (US$18.2 million) to expand its digital ID efforts.To ensure relevance in a rapidly evolving landscape, the Australian government also said it committed to reviewing and updating the strategic plan every 18 months.Google Pay introduces Aadhaar-based UPI activation-Google Pay has introduced a new feature for Indian users that enables them to set their UPI (Unified Payments Interface) PIN without a debit card service, instead using their Aadhaar number.From a technical standpoint, the feature requires users to link their mobile phone number, bank account, and Aadhaar number together. Google Pay users will be given the option to activate their accounts using either a debit card or their Aadhaar number.By leveraging the Aadhaar-based UPI onboarding flow, Google Pay aims to simplify the setup process of UPI IDs and enable more users to embrace digital ID-based payments, reports Money Control.This move reportedly aligns with the government’s push for financial inclusion and reinforces Google Pay’s commitment to driving digital payment adoption in India.

Group says doc shows Irish benefits card data collection and transparency issues known-Jun 9, 2023, 1:44 pm EDT    | Jim Nash

A privacy agency in the Irish government has collected face scans from 3.2 million residents over 10 years without telling them the reason for doing so or even providing a legal rationale for doing so.Further, individuals’ biometric records are being stored in a centralized database for 10 years past the end of their life.Some of those residents allegedly have been children. All allegations reportedly violate European Union law.According to a 2021 data protection impact assessment filed by the Department of Social Protection and co-authored by business services firm KPMG, face-matching reduces fraud that involves the nation’s public-services card program, which has been plagued by biometrics concerns and miscommunication.The Irish Council for Civil Liberties recently got a copy of the document after filing a Freedom of Information request. Leaders of the group say that document makes it clear that, at least since 2021, Social Protection officials have known they are violating Article 9 of the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation. Article 9 stipulates a narrow range of circumstances in which biometrics and other special category data can be processed without the explicit consent of the data subject.Antoin O Lachtnain, director Digital Right Ireland, another public advocacy group, told the Irish Legal News that another government agency, the Data Protection Commission, has been investigating face-matching associated with the card “for a number of years.”

Tech5 develops biometrics checking capability to protect printed IDs against fraud-Jun 9, 2023, 1:52 pm EDT-| Chris Burt

Tech5 has launched a digital security capability using biometrics to guard against the substitution or manipulation of the facial image on a printed identity document.The new T5-FaceLink feature can be used in various scenarios to provide assurance that the document is genuine and belongs to the bearer, without requiring any special tools, according to the company announcement.A high-density code that contains a biometric representation of the face is printed on the document, alongside the photo, with both captured to complete verification. Tech5’s software compares the two in real-time.Despite the several levels of protection built into printed ID documents to protect against forgery and theft, Tech5 Co-founder, Chairman and CTO Rahul Parthe says that fraudulent documents with swapped photos remain a significant fraud threat.“Inspired by the T5-Digital ID’s features and advantages and combining it with our identity market expertise, we developed T5-FaceLink to improve document security,” says Parthe. “It allows linking the photo on the document to the security feature, proving the authenticity using digital signature and additionally biometrically verifying the holder of the ID directly against the document (if required), unlocking additional verification capability for offline use cases.”T5-FaceLink can also hold a digital signature asserting the documents legitimacy. The technology can also be added to existing ID documents to upgrade their protection against fraud without replacing them or adding an electronic chip storing the user’s biometrics.“The protection of identity documents from photo substitution becomes more important with the increased use of ID documents in remote/unattended eKYC scenarios increasingly used by banks, telcos, enterprises, healthcare providers, and governments,” says Tech5 Strategy Advisor Rob Haslam. “We believe that T5-FaceLink is an answer to solving the fraud problem involving the use of documents with swapped photographs for both online and offline verification use cases.”The new feature is currently being tested in several national-level identity projects in the Middle East.Tech5’s projects in the region include remote voter identity verification in Oman.

Face biometrics deployed for cardless ATM transactions at Japan’s Seven-Elevens-Jun 9, 2023, 12:22 pm EDT-| Bianca Gonzalez

By as early as March 2024, Japan’s Seven Bank will allow customers to make deposits and withdrawals using facial recognition at roughly 20,000 ATMs in Seven-Elevens nationally, said the bank’s president Masaaki Matsuhashi, according to Nikkei.The service will be the first of its kind in Japan, according to Nikkei. Located inside Seven-Elevens throughout Japan, the bank is a unit of the convenience store’s parent company Seven & i Holdings.To activate facial authentication, customers must link their account information to their biometrics at a Seven Bank ATM. They will receive a unique ID card that will be required at future transactions as an added security measure. Customers will no longer need to use their cash card for account openings, withdrawals and deposits.They will also be able to retrieve government benefits “without the need for a bank account,” according to a company statement. This feature was already implemented in some areas, with Shibuya City in Tokyo involving the technology in its childbirth grant program.Roughly 13,000, or half, of all Seven Bank ATMs already have face biometric technology. An additional 6,000 are projected to be replaced this year with a new model that NEC, a Japanese tech company, developed in 2019. NEC began providing a facial recognition cashless payment system for Japan’s Seven-Elevens back in 2020.Because Seven Bank relies on ATM fees from other banking institutions, it will encourage other banks to adopt similar technology so they can allow their customers to use facial recognition at Seven Bank ATMs.“We will work to further expand the value provided by ATMs as a new social infrastructure that is close and convenient, and reliable and safe,” says the company in the statement.

EZEKIEL 38:1-23
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2  Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3  And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4  And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5  Persia,(IRAN,IRAQ) Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6  Gomer,(GERMANY) and all his bands; the house of Togarmah (TURKEY) of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.(AFRICAN MUSLIMS,SUDAN,TUNESIA ETC)
7  Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8  After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9  Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.
10  Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11  And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12  To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13  Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?(OIL IS IN SPOIL-I BELIEVE THATS WHY RUSSIA,ARAB/MUSLIMS MARCH TO ISRAEL)
14  Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
15  And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
16  And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17  Thus saith the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?
18  And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face.
19  For in my jealousy and in the fire (atomic bomb) of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20  So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21  And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother.
22  And I will plead against him with pestilence (biological,chemical,nuclear) and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.(NUKED,THEN MIGRATING BIRDS EAT RUSSIA/ARAB/MUSLIMS FLESH)
23  Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.

EZEKIEL 39:1-29
1 Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
2  And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee,(300 MILIION RUSSIA-ARAB-MUSLIMS GET NUKED BY ISRAEL) and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel:
3  And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.
4  Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou,(RUSSIA) and all thy bands,(RUSSIA SUPPORTED WITH WEAPONS-ARAB/MUSLIM COUNTRIES) and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.
5  Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.
6  And I will send a fire (ATOMIC BOMB) on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
7  So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
8  Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord GOD; this is the day whereof I have spoken.
9  And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years:
10  So that they shall take no wood out of the field, neither cut down any out of the forests; for they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall spoil those that spoiled them, and rob those that robbed them, saith the Lord GOD.
11  And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it The valley of Hamongog.
12  And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.
13  Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the Lord GOD.
14  And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search.
15  And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a man’s bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamongog.
16  And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.
17  And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.
18  Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.
19  And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
20  Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.
21  And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.
22  So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day and forward.
23  And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.
24  According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.
25  Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;
26  After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.
27  When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;
28  Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
29  Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.

Putin says Russian tactical nuclear weapons to be deployed to Belarus next month-Belarusian opposition decries move as an attempt to blackmail the West as Ukraine steps up offensive-By AP 9 June 2023, 6:17 pm

MOSCOW — Russian President Vladimir Putin said Friday that Moscow will deploy some of its tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus next month, a move that the Belarusian opposition described as an attempt to blackmail the West.Putin said during a meeting with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko that work on building facilities for the nuclear weapons will be completed by July 7-8, and they will be moved to the territory of Russia’s neighbor and ally quickly after that.The move comes as Ukraine has stepped up attacks in several sectors of the front line in what some observers see as the start of its long-expected counteroffensive.Russia used Belarus’ territory to send its troops into Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022, and has kept forces and weapons on the territory of its ally.“Everything is proceeding as planned,” Putin said in televised remarks as he hosted Lukashenko at his residence in the Black Sea resort of Sochi. “On July 7-8 the preparations of the relevant facilities will be completed and we will immediately start the activities linked to the deployment of those weapons on your territory.”Tactical nuclear weapons are intended to destroy enemy troops and weapons on the battlefield. They have a relatively short range and a much lower yield than nuclear warheads fitted to long-range strategic missiles that are capable of obliterating whole cities.Putin announced the planned deployment of the short-range nuclear weapons in Belarus earlier this year in a move widely seen as a warning to the West as it stepped up military support for Ukraine. He has emphasized that Russia will retain control of them.Russia didn’t say how many nuclear weapons would be sent to Belarus. The US government believes Russia has about 2,000 tactical nuclear weapons, which include bombs that can be carried by aircraft, warheads for short-range missiles and artillery rounds.Exiled Belarusian opposition leader Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya strongly condemned the move.“Putin and his puppet Lukashenko are planning to deploy nuclear weapons in Belarus immediately before NATO’s summit in Vilnius in July,” Tsikhanouskaya told The Associated Press. “This is a rude blackmail, an attempt to force Europe to back down, but we can’t allow dictators to dodge punishment for the nuclear blackmail.Lukashenko, who has been in power for 29 years, has relied on Russia’s political and economic support to survive months of protests, mass arrests and Western sanctions following an election in 2020 that kept him in power but was widely seen at home and abroad as rigged.

Canada's PM Trudeau visits Kyiv in unannounced trip-‘Heavy battles’ rage in Ukraine as last reactor at imperiled nuclear plant shut down-Kyiv reports 34 clashes with Russian forces in east amid talk long-awaited counteroffensive underway; Russia attacks with missiles and drones-By Jamey Keaten-JUN 10,23-Today, 4:31 pm

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukraine’s military reported intense fighting with Russian forces on Saturday, while the country’s nuclear energy agency said it put the last operating reactor at Europe’s largest nuclear power plant into a “cold shutdown” for safety as Russia’s war on Ukraine drags on through its 16th month.After Russian forces pummeled Ukraine with missiles and drones overnight resulting in deaths and damage to a military airfield, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau arrived in Kyiv Saturday for a previously unannounced visit, his second trip to Ukraine since Russia’s invasion in February last year. He was accompanied by Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland.Ukraine’s General Staff said Saturday that “heavy battles” were ongoing, with 34 clashes over the previous day in the country’s industrial east. It gave no details but said Russian forces were “defending themselves” and launching air and artillery strikes in Ukraine’s southern Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions.A day earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed his view that Ukrainian troops have started a long-expected counteroffensive and were suffering “significant” losses.At the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, Europe’s largest, which is occupied by Russian forces, five out of six reactors were already in a state of cold shutdown, a process in which all control rods are inserted into the reactor core to stop the nuclear fission reaction and generation of heat and pressure.Energoatom, the Ukrainian nuclear agency, said in a statement late Friday that there was “no direct threat” to the Zaporizhzhia plant due to the breach of the Kakhovka dam further down the Dnieper River, which has forced thousands of people to flee flooding and also sharply reduced water levels in a reservoir used to help cool the facility.Energoatom said it shut down the final reactor due to that, and also because of shelling near the site that has damaged overhead lines connecting the plant to Ukraine’s energy system.With all nuclear reactions stopped, temperatures and pressure inside reactors gradually decline, reducing the required intensity of water cooling of the radioactive fuel. This is a nuclear power plant’s safest operating mode. Energoatom employees are still working at the power plant, although it remains controlled by the Russians.The site’s power units have not been operating since September last year. The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency is due to visit Ukraine in the coming days.Also on Saturday morning, Ukrainian authorities reported that at least four civilians have died across the country as Russian forces launched Iranian-made Shahed drones, missiles, and artillery and mortar strikes.Ukraine’s State Emergency Service reported that three people were killed and more than two dozen wounded overnight in an attack targeting the Black Sea port of Odesa. A spokesperson for Ukraine’s southern operational command, Natalia Humeniuk, said two children and a pregnant woman were among those wounded.In Ukraine’s northeast, a 29-year-old man was killed as more than 10 drones targeted the Kharkiv region, its governor, Oleh Syniehubov, reported Saturday. He added that at least three other civilians were wounded.In the Poltava region further west, there was damage to a military airfield struck overnight during a Russian drone and missile attack, local Gov. Dmytro Lunin reported. Lunin said no one was hurt. As of Saturday morning, there was no additional comment from the Ukrainian army or officials on the extent of the damage.The Ukrainian air force said that during the night, it had shot down 20 out of 35 Shahed drones and two out of eight missiles “of various types” launched by Russian forces.The fighting and civilian casualties took renewed attention as authorities in southern Ukraine said water levels have been declining in a vast area beneath the ruptured dam.Nearly one-third of protected natural areas in the Kherson region could be obliterated by flooding following the breach of the Kakhovka dam, the Ukrainian environment minister warned Saturday.In a Facebook post, Ruslan Strilets said that the dam’s collapse left one national park completely submerged, drained rivers and lakes in other protected areas, and could lead to groundwater rising in parts of the Dnieper delta occupied by Moscow, creating the risk of further flooding.In the city of Kherson, whose outskirts were among the flood-hit areas, the average water level decreased by 31 centimeters (12 inches) during the night, but remained over 4.5 meters (15 feet) higher than usual, regional Gov. Oleksandr Prokudin reported Saturday.Prokudin warned that meteorologists predicted heavy rainfall in the area over the weekend, complicating rescue efforts.The UN’s humanitarian aid chief, Martin Griffiths, said in an Associated Press interview Friday that an “extraordinary” 700,000 people were in need of drinking water.In other developments, on Saturday, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz says he wants to continue speaking with Putin — whose order for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has been criticized by many Western leaders — and plans to do so again “soon.” Scholz has spoken several times by phone with Putin since the invasion.The chancellor said the basis for a “fair peace” between Russia and Ukraine is the withdrawal of Russian troops. “That needs to be understood,” he said.

Germany advancing planned purchase of Israel’s Arrow 3 for $4.3 billion — report-German lawmakers asked to release advance payments to secure deal with Israel for long-range missile defense system-By Emanuel Fabian Today, 4:24 pm

Germany is advancing plans to purchase Israel’s Arrow 3 anti-ballistic missile system for some 4 billion euros ($4.3 billion), the Reuters news agency reported Saturday.According to the report, citing German finance ministry procurement documents, German lawmakers will be asked to release advance payments of up to 560 million euros ($600 million) next week in order to secure a government-to-government deal with Israel of the Arrow 3 system at the end of the year.The Arrow 3 is currently Israel’s most advanced long-range missile defense system, meant to intercept ballistic missiles while they are still outside of the Earth’s atmosphere, taking out projectiles and their nuclear, biological, chemical or conventional warheads closer to their launch sites.Germany has sought to purchase the Arrow 3 system from Israel for more than a year now. It came up in a meeting in April between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.Should the deal fail, Germany would lose all or part of its advance payments, Reuters reported, citing the government documents. The money would be used to compensate Israel.In April, Israeli and German officials launched “advanced” discussions on the sale of the Arrow 3 system.Israel’s Defense Ministry said that as the system was co-developed with the United States, the export process to Germany was contingent on the approval of Washington.Germany has been seeking to bolster defenses amid Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.Last year, Andreas Schwarz of Scholz’s SPD party, who sits on the parliamentary budget committee, said: “We must better protect ourselves against the Russian threat. To do that, we need quickly an anti-missile shield for Germany.”“The Israeli Arrow 3 system is a good solution,” he told Bild daily at the time.The Arrow 3 was developed in a joint project between Israel’s Defense Ministry’s Missile Defense Organization and the American Missile Defense Agency. Work is underway on the development of a yet more advanced system, the Arrow 4.

US warned Iran against higher enrichment during indirect Oman talks in May — report-Axios reports US Mideast coordinator Brett McGurk and Iran’s top nuke negotiator Ali Bagheri Kan were in Gulf nation at same time, with Muscat officials shuttling between sides-By ToI Staff-JUN 10,23-Today, 11:55 am

Officials from the United States and Iran held indirect talks in Oman last month, with officials from Muscat acting as intermediaries, according to a Friday report.Three sources familiar with the matter told Axios that US officials made clear in messages passed to Iran that there will be a severe response if Tehran reaches the 90 percent uranium enrichment levels required for use in a nuclear weapon — a short technical step from their current level. The most recent estimate by the UN’s nuclear watchdog is that Iran has 114.1 kilograms (251 pounds) of uranium enriched up to 60% purity, a short technical step from weapons-grade.The Axios report labeled the discussions “proximity talks” focused on deterrence, and said that the White House’s Middle East coordinator Brett McGurk had traveled to Oman on May 8 to discuss potential moves by the US toward Iran regarding its contentious nuclear program.The visit was apparently while McGurk was in the region for public trips to Israel and Saudi Arabia.The report said Iran’s top nuclear negotiator Ali Bagheri Kan was in Oman at the same time as part of a delegation, but did not meet directly with the Americans.The two teams were in separate locations and Omani officials shuttled between them, according to the report.When asked for comment by Axios, a White House National Security Council spokesperson said Washington “remain[s] focused on constraining Iran’s destabilizing behavior through pressure, close coordination with our allies, and de-escalation in the region.“That includes ensuring Iran never acquires a nuclear weapon so of course, we are watching closely Iran’s enrichment activities,” the spokesperson said.The spokesperson said that if necessary, the US was ready “to take action in full coordination with our partners and allies to ensure Iran never acquires a nuclear weapon.”There was no comment from the Omani or Iranian foreign ministries.Last week, the Financial Times reported that the Biden administration’s special envoy for Iran, Robert Malley, recently held a number of meetings with the Iranian ambassador to the United Nations, Amir Saeid Iravani.These were believed to be the first direct interaction between American and Iranian officials since then-US president Donald Trump withdrew the United States from the nuclear deal.The Financial Times described the outreach as part of a shift among US and European officials, who are concerned Iran’s continually expanding activities in violation of the nuclear deal could trigger a regional conflict.The reported discussions came some nine months after indirect talks aimed at reenergizing the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and world powers collapsed, with the US saying the negotiations were no longer a top priority.There have been signs of late of burgeoning diplomatic activity surrounding Oman, which played a key role in jumpstarting the talks that eventually led to the 2015 deal with Iran, which the US pulled out of in 2018.Last month, Oman’s Sultan Haitham bin Tarik went to Tehran for a two-day visit, the first by an Omani leader to the Iranian capital in a decade. The visit came as Iran worked to shed many of the regional rivalries that characterized the past decade, restoring ties with Saudi Arabia and others and expressing support for full diplomatic relations with Egypt for the first time since 1979.Israeli officials have accused the US and Iran of seeking an interim nuclear agreement that would allow Tehran to continue enriching uranium.The White House on Thursday denied a report that Washington and Tehran were making progress on a new nuclear deal, a potential development Israel has been watching closely and with mounting concern in recent weeks.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Thursday at length about Iran, according to an Israeli readout of the conversation, which came after the top US diplomat was wrapping up a high-profile visit to Saudi Arabia to boost ties and talk about possible normalization with Israel.Netanyahu reiterated his position that Iran will not stop advancing its nuclear program, even if it agrees to revive the nuclear deal with the US, his office says he told Blinken.Separately on Thursday, Israeli F-16D fighter jets escorted two American B-1 bombers as they made their way through Israeli airspace returning from the Persian Gulf, in an apparent show of force toward Iran amid lingering tensions in the region.Israeli jets escorting American bombers have become a regular fixture in the skies of the Middle East over the past two years, as tensions between Tehran and the West have risen amid stalled attempts to negotiate a new deal that would block the Islamic Republic from obtaining nuclear weapons in exchange for sanctions relief.Israel lobbied hard against the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and world powers, which the US pulled out of in 2018. Subsequent efforts by Europe and US President Joe Biden’s administration to revive the agreement and bring Washington back into the pact have also been met with protests from Jerusalem. Israel argues that diplomatic efforts fall short of preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, pushing instead for a credible military threat.Israel is concerned that a new deal could legitimize Iran’s nuclear activity and erase international support for military action.Last week, the UN’s atomic watchdog closed an investigation into an Iranian site where secret nuclear activity was suspected, leading Israel to accuse the monitor of caving to pressure from Tehran.The Associated Press reported that the IAEA said Iran had satisfied concerns over suspected secret nuclear activity at Marivan and the underground Fordo facility.Iran had argued the uranium traces could have come from “laboratory instruments and equipment” used by miners at the site. The IAEA called the answer “a possible explanation.”Analysts had repeatedly linked Marivan to Iran’s secret military nuclear program and accused Iran of conducting high-explosive tests there in the early 2000s. In 2019, Netanyahu exposed the site, claiming it was a secret nuclear facility.A separate investigation into uranium particles found to be enriched to 83.7% at Iran’s underground Fordo facility, just a short step from weapons-grade material, was also closed by the IAEA, which accepted Tehran’s explanation that the fluctuations were caused by an enrichment byproduct.Last year, Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi said in no uncertain terms that closing IAEA investigations into nuclear particles found at suspected nuclear sites was a prerequisite to reviving the 2015 nuclear deal.A second IAEA report last week found that Iran has significantly increased its stockpile of enriched uranium in recent months to more than 23 times the limit set out in the 2015 accord between Tehran and world powers.Iran’s nuclear deal limited Tehran’s uranium stockpile to 300 kilograms (661 pounds) and enrichment to 3.67% — enough to fuel a nuclear power plant, but Iran has been producing uranium enriched to 60% purity — a level for which nonproliferation experts already say Tehran has no civilian use.The IAEA report estimated that as of May 13, Iran’s total enriched uranium stockpile was at 4,744.5 kilograms (10,460 pounds). Of that, 114.1 kilograms (251 pounds) was enriched up to 60% purity.Agencies contributed to this report.

Rioters hurl stones at IDF during standoff on tense Lebanon border-Lebanese men attempt to damage fence, prompting Israeli soldiers to launch tear gas in response; armed Lebanese Army troops seen guarding area-By Emanuel Fabian 9 June 2023, 2:13 pm

The Israeli military clashed with Lebanese nationals along the northern border on Friday afternoon, firing tear gas after several men hurled stones and attempted to damage Israel’s security barrier, the Israel Defense Forces said.Live television footage aired by the Hezbollah mouthpiece Al-Mayadeen showed Lebanese Army soldiers standing near a crowd throwing stones and rushing at the border, as IDF troops launched tear gas in response.Israel and Lebanon do not have a formal border due to territorial disputes; however, they largely abide by the United Nations-recognized Blue Line between the two countries.Armed Lebanese soldiers, some with RPGs, were seen standing guard at the scene in the contested Mount Dov region, also known as the Shebaa Farms — claimed by Israel, Lebanon and Syria.Other images showed members of a UN peacekeeping force separating Israeli soldiers from the Lebanese following the incident.The Israeli military said in a statement that Lebanese suspects “tried to vandalize the [security] barrier and threw stones at the IDF forces operating in the area.”“The forces responded with riot dispersal means. The IDF will not allow any attempt to violate the sovereignty of the State of Israel,” the military added.There were no Lebanese injuries reported.There have been numerous standoffs between the IDF and the Lebanese Army in recent years, after the latter complained that Israeli engineering work crossed over a demarcation line between the countries.The Blue Line is marked with blue barrels along the border and is several meters from the Israeli fence in some areas. The engineering work typically takes place to the north of Israel’s fence, but within Israeli territory.Generally, the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) has stepped in and stopped the works after complaints by the Lebanese Army. There have been several cases of clashes amid such standoffs in recent months.Andrea Tenenti, a spokesman for UNIFIL, said peacekeepers are on the ground working to decrease tension in the area.“We have urged the parties to utilize our coordination mechanisms effectively to prevent misunderstandings, violations, and contribute to the preservation of stability in the area,” Tenenti said. He added that UNIFIL leadership is in contact with the parties, seeking a solution.“We call upon both sides to exercise restraint and avoid actions along the blue line that may escalate tensions,” Tenenti told The Associated Press.UNIFIL has been in Lebanon since 1978. Composed of nearly 10,000 soldiers, it is deployed in the south of the country — a stronghold of Hezbollah — to maintain a barrier with Israel, as the two countries technically remain at war.The terror group has long been the IDF’s most significant adversary on Israel’s borders, with an estimated arsenal of nearly 150,000 rockets and missiles that can reach anywhere in Israel.Work on a new border wall with Lebanon began in 2018 to replace Israel’s aging fence in the area. By 2020, the military and Defense Ministry Borders and Security Fence Directorate had completed only 15 kilometers (9 miles) of concrete walling along the approximately 130-kilometer (80-mile) border in order to protect the 22 adjacent Israeli villages.Eventually, the plan is to construct a barrier along the entire border — a project that would cost NIS 1.7 billion ($470 million).AP contributed to this report

IDF wraps up major drill focused on multi-front war with Iran, Middle East proxies-‘Firm Hand’ exercises include lengthy ground combat on Lebanon front, hundreds of aircraft carrying out mock strikes ‘deep in enemy territory,’ cyber warfare-By Emanuel Fabian 8 June 2023, 10:40 pm

The Israel Defense Forces on Thursday wrapped up a two-week drill focused on a potential multi-front war with Iran and its terror proxies across the Middle East, such as the Lebanese Hezbollah.The exercises — dubbed “Firm Hand” — involved troops from the standing and reserve army, from nearly all units. According to the IDF, the drills included ground forces simulating fighting on Israel’s northern frontier with Lebanon, the Air Force carrying out mock airstrikes “deep in enemy territory,” Navy operations at sea, intelligence units working around the clock, and cyber units simulating electronic warfare.The IDF said that during the first week, the 91st Territorial Division carried out exercises that simulated “defense scenarios in large numbers along the Lebanese front” and “wide-ranging offensive scenarios.”The Air Force practiced “the opening of intense combat, complex aerial defense scenarios that included thousands of interceptions, outlining strategic strikes deep in enemy territory, achieving aerial superiority in the region and extensive striking of thousands of targets using hundreds of aircraft.”In the second week, the 36th Armored Division and 91st Territorial Division carried out another drill simulating lengthy fighting in Israel’s northern frontier.“During this week, the IAF focused on assisting and cooperating in maneuvering and practiced aerial mobilization of forces, supplying logistical means by air and artillery support for the purpose of maneuvering,” the IDF said, adding that the Air Force also “continued to practice extensive strikes in several arenas.”The IDF said that dozens of Navy vessels also carried out an exercise, which included using “offensive and defensive capabilities” to defend Israel’s maritime borders and secure shipping lanes.During both weeks, the IDF’s headquarters practiced carrying out war plans. On Sunday night, the high-level security cabinet convened at the military’s operational command bunker in Tel Aviv to simulate political decision-making during the mock multi-front war.The Military Intelligence Directorate practiced working to collect intelligence on targets for the forces carrying out the simulated fighting. “In the exercise, hundreds of new real targets were outlined in the combat arenas,” the IDF said.The Computer Service Directorate simulated both cyber warfare and fighting in the electromagnetic spectrum, or radio waves. “In the field of cyber defense, attacks simulating relevant cyber threats on IDF networks and assets were practiced,” the military said.The Home Front Command carried out various exercises simulating attacks on civilian areas. Residents of Haifa were notified on Tuesday with an alert that popped up on phones and included text with simulated instructions for an emergency.The IDF said that the Strategy and Third-Circle Directorate, tasked with the military’s Iran file, “practiced the strategic planning of the campaign and the international coordination with foreign militaries.”The Operations Directorate “managed the combat schedule and commanded over the operational processes in the General Staff’s main administrative headquarters, as part of improving and practicing the operational system and its readiness for war,” the IDF said.The Northern Command, as part of the two major exercises, practiced maneuvering efforts, intelligence gathering, and firepower by various units, the IDF said.The Central and Southern commands meanwhile, practiced “a variety of intensive operational scenarios and counterterrorism activities,” the IDF said, including shooting attacks and terrorist infiltrations.The Ground Forces Training Center in southern Israel also hosted a US Army battalion for a joint drill with the IDF’s 7th Armored Brigade, the military said.“Throughout the planning and implementation of the exercise, an examination and study process took place with the goal of improving the IDF’s operational activities and readiness,” the military said in a statement.While the drill was pre-planned, it came during escalated tensions over Iran’s nuclear program and Israeli warnings that a broad conflict could break out over the issue.Tehran has been ramping up its nuclear program since 2018, when the US unilaterally withdrew from a landmark pact that had capped enrichment in exchange for sanctions relief.Talks to revive the nuclear deal fell apart last year, but recent reports have indicated steps to possibly renew the diplomatic initiative, sparking Israeli concerns that a new deal could legitimize Iran’s nuclear activity and erode international support for potential military action.Israel has continued to warn against such an agreement in recent weeks, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Gallant, and IDF chief Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi adding to fevered saber-rattling already taking place between the countries.Last year, the IDF held its largest drill in decades. The four-week-long exercise — called Chariots of Fire — also focused on sudden events erupting in multiple theaters at the same time, while mostly dealing with fighting the Iran-backed Hezbollah in Lebanon.Hezbollah has long represented the most significant military threat on Israel’s borders, with an estimated arsenal of nearly 150,000 rockets and missiles that can reach anywhere in the country.Meanwhile, in light of the lack of progress regarding a return by Iran to the 2015 nuclear agreement with world powers, the IDF has ramped up efforts over the past two years to prepare a credible military threat against Tehran’s nuclear sites.During the Chariots of Fire drill last year, dozens of Air Force fighter jets conducted air maneuvers over the Mediterranean Sea, simulating striking Iranian nuclear facilities.

Alberta gears up for a scorching, smoky weekend with possible severe storms-Digital Writers-Sat, June 10, 2023 at 9:22 a.m. EDT

Visit The Weather Network's wildfire hub to keep up with the latest on the active start to wildfire season across Canada.The relentless parade of severe thunderstorms that pelted the eastern Prairies to start June will finally start to shift west—cementing the heart of this weekend’s active weather squarely over Alberta.It’s not just the storms we’ll have to watch out for across Alberta. Ongoing fires throughout the province will lead to poor air quality for some communities over the next couple of days, and temperatures will climb well above seasonal, especially in the northern half of the province.Weather: A trough will slip east into Alberta on Saturday, acting as the trigger for thunderstorm developing both Saturday and Sunday.Heat, humidity, and elevated moisture will provide the instability needed to fuel those thunderstorms, especially in northern sections of the province.Thunderstorms will develop through the afternoon and evening hours on Saturday, with the risk for strongest storms west of Edmonton.The strongest storms could pack the risk for large hail, damaging wind gusts, and heavy rainfall. There’s also the concern that lightning could spark additional wildfires.When: Sunday-Where: Southern and central Alberta, northern SaskatchewanWeather: The threat of thunderstorms will continue into Sunday, moving towards the central parts of Alberta, with Calgary seeing the potential for a severe thunderstorm into the afternoon hours.The storm threat should dissipate Sunday evening, with rainfall continuing into the overnight hours.The strongest storms could pack the risk for large hail, strong wind gusts, and heavy rainfall.Summer heat prevails-This weekend will be a scorcher across much of Alberta as a ridge of high pressure settles in over the province.Heat warnings remain in effect as daytime high temperatures on Saturday will hover around the 30-degree mark across the northern half of the province. Humidex values will easily exceed 30 in Red Deer, Edmonton, and north toward Fort McMurray and beyond."Monitor for symptoms of heat stroke or heat exhaustion, such as high body temperature, lack of sweat, confusion, fainting, and unconsciousness," Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) said in its heat warning for Edmonton.Temperatures will ease by a few degrees heading into early next week, but conditions will remain quite summer-like until at least the middle of the week when comparatively cooler air slides in.Increased fire danger, smoky conditions-The renewed heat and ongoing dry conditions will contribute to an extreme fire danger into the weekend across much of Alberta. Residents will have to closely monitor the threat for wildfire growth and the ignition of new blazes in the days ahead.The Air Quality Health Index has been at high risk for many communities across northern sections of the province, including Edmonton, and it looks to stay at a moderate to high risk through the weekend.A change in wind direction is expected to shift wildfire smoke towards southern communities by the end of the weekend, so cities and towns throughout southern Alberta should prepare for deteriorating air quality and hazy skies at times on Sunday and lasting into early next week.

WATCH: Wall of wildfire smoke turns New York City orange

The Canadian Press-Wildfire roundup: What you need to know about blazes burning across Canada-Sat, June 10, 2023 at 1:25 p.m. EDT

Air quality warnings persist in Quebec, Ontario and much of western Canada as wildfires continue to burn out of control in several jurisdictions across the country. Here's a look at developments Saturday:Rain coming for Ontario and QuebecEnvironment and Climate Change Canada says there is rain in the forecast for Ontario and western parts of Quebec.Warning Preparedness Meteorologist Gerald Cheng says rain is expected in Ontario beginning late Sunday, and in western Quebec on Sunday night.He says it remains to be seen whether the rain will help firefighters douse the flames in those provinces.Smoke still a concern-Cheng says the fires in Ontario and Quebec have been significant contributors to the smoke that turned skies varying shades of smoggy oranges and yellows in Ontario and parts of the eastern U.S.Cheng says while smoke concentrations in the U.S. have let up somewhat, there are still concerns for Canada, particularly for parts of Quebec.He says smoke is also due to return to parts of Northeastern Ontario on Monday, and smoky skies could reach into Lake Superior.Fire smoke will still choke the skies over Quebec on Monday, particularly around the Chibougamau and Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean regions.Next 48 hours are crucial for Quebec firesWarm, humid temperatures are expected in Quebec until the rain arrives in parts of the province later this weekend.Officials say there are more than 130 fires burning in the province and teams have prioritized 37 of them, with 861 firefighters on the ground and 20 water bombers part of the fight.Public Security Minister François Bonnardel says authorities are concerned for Normétal, located 720 kilometres northwest of Montreal in the Abitibi region, where fires are burning nearby.Another major fight is taking place in Lebel-sur-Quévillon, a northern municipality where the province's largest fire is about five kilometres southeast of the community but also within a few kilometres of the Nordic Kraft pulp mill.The situation remains stable in Chibougamau, Mistissini, Chapais and Oujé-Bougoumou, where numerous teams are deployed.Provincial authorities say 13,810 Quebecers have been evacuated due to the wildfire situation in the province.Nova Scotia still ablaze-The largest forest fire in Nova Scotia's history continues to burn out of control in Shelburne County, though officials say the flames are no longer spreading.The fire broke out May 27 near Barrington Lake and it has since devoured more than 234 square kilometres of land.About 130 firefighters are continuing their battle today to knock it down.Nova Scotia woman fined for open fire-Police say a woman in central Nova Scotia has been fined nearly $29,000 for having an unsupervised outdoor fire in the midst of a provincewide fire ban.RCMP Cpl. Chris Marshall says officers found a fire in a firepit on Friday on a private property in Lantz, N.S., which is about 50 kilometres north of Halifax.Officers doused the flames with a hose and then gave a woman in the house on the property a ticket for $28,872.50.Fire threatens northeastern BritishColumbia town-Fire officials are hoping a wind change will help save the community of Tumbler Ridge in northeastern British Columbia, after an intense wildfire pushed within a few kilometres of the town.The community of 2,400 people has mostly been evacuated but Tumbler Ridge fire Chief Dustin Curry says about 150 people remained on Friday.Some of those are emergency personnel, but others are residents who refuse to comply with the order to leave.This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 10, 2023.The Canadian Press

Third day of smoky air gives millions in America a new view of wildfire threat-Effect of wildfires a wake-up call about the future, scientists say-By Jennifer Peltz and Rob Gillies 9 June 2023, 10:41 am

NEW YORK (AP) — Images of smoke obscuring the New York skyline and the Washington Monument this week have given the world a new picture of the perils of wildfire, far from where blazes regularly turn skies into hazardous haze.A third day of unhealthy air from Canadian wildfires may have been an unnerving novelty for millions of people on the US East Coast, but it was a reminder of conditions routinely troubling the country’s West — and a wake-up call about the future, scientists say.“This is kind of an astounding event” but likely to become more common amid global warming, said Justin Mankin, a Dartmouth College geography professor and climate scientist. “This is something that we, as the eastern side of the country, need to take quite seriously.”Millions of residents could see that for themselves Thursday. The conditions sent asthma sufferers to hospitals, delayed flights, postponed ballgames and even pushed back a White House Pride Month celebration. The fires sent plumes of fine particulate matter as far away as North Carolina and northern Europe and parked clumps of air rated unhealthy or worse over the heavily populated Eastern Seaboard.At points this week, air quality in places including New York, the nation’s most populous city, nearly hit the top of the US Environmental Protection Agency’s air pollution scale. Local officials urged people to stay indoors as much as possible and wear face masks when they ventured out.Such conditions are nothing new — indeed, increasingly frequent — on the US West Coast, where residents were buying masks and air filters even before the coronavirus pandemic and have become accustomed to checking air quality daily in summertime. Since 2017, California has seen eight of its 10 largest wildfires and six of the most destructive.The hazardous air has sometimes forced children, older adults and people with asthma and other respiratory conditions to stay indoors for weeks at a time. Officials have opened smoke shelters for people who are homeless or who might not have access to clean indoor air.So what’s the big deal about the smoke out East?“The West has always burned, as has Canada, but what’s important now is that we’re getting these massive amounts of smoke in a very populated region, so many, many people are getting affected,” said Loretta Mickley, the co-leader of Harvard University’s Atmospheric Chemistry Modeling Group.Fueled by an unusually dry and warm period in spring, the Canadian fire season that is just getting started could well become the worst on record. More than 400 blazes burned Thursday. Over a third are in Quebec, where Public Safety Minister François Bonnardel said no rain is expected until next week, and temperatures are predicted to rise.He said there have been no reports of injuries, deaths or home damage so far from the fires, but it remained unclear Thursday when more than 12,000 evacuees from various communities would be able to return. Manon Cyr, mayor of the evacuated town of Chibougamau, said she advised residents to be “Zen and patient. That’s the most important.”But, she noted, the real solution will be a good dose of rain.In neighboring Ontario, a haze hung over Toronto, Canada’s most populous city, where many school recess breaks, daycare center activities and outdoor recreation programs were canceled or moved inside.US President Joe Biden said Thursday that hundreds of American firefighters and support personnel have been in Canada since May, and that he’d offered Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau “any additional help Canada needs to rapidly accelerate the effort to put out these fires.” The two spoke Wednesday.Wildfires aren’t the only air-quality problems that beset major population centers around the globe.In Beijing, for example, decades of sandstorms blowing in from the Mongolian plains have mixed with human-made pollution, sometimes making neighboring buildings invisible to one another. Commuters have even been spotted walking down streets wearing plastic bags over their heads to insulate against particulates.Many African countries in and near the Sahara Desert, too, regularly grapple with bad air mainly because of sandstorms. Senegal, in particular, has endured years of unsafe levels of air pollution, which is causing asthma and other respiratory diseases, climate experts say.Chemically, wildfire smoke can be more toxic than typical urban pollution, but with an asterisk: With smog, “the problem is you’re in it all the time,” says Jonathan Deason, an environmental and energy management professor George Washington University.In New York City, Health Department spokesperson Pedro Frisneda said emergency rooms were seeing a “higher than usual” number of asthma-related visits from the blanket of smoke, estimating patients were in the “low hundreds.”The city public school system — the nation’s largest — said Friday’s classes would be conducted remotely, a decision that mostly affected high schoolers because most other pupils already had a scheduled day off. Motorists even got a break Thursday and Friday from having to move their cars for street cleaning.In Washington, a big Pride Month celebration on the White House’s South Lawn was moved from Thursday to Saturday, and a Washington Nationals-Arizona Diamondbacks game was postponed. Local officials closed public parks and suspended some road work.Philadelphia ended trash collection ended early, for the sake of sanitation employees. Bridgeport, Connecticut’s largest city, opened spaces usually used as hot-weather cooling centers so that residents could escape the unhealthy air.A Chris Stapleton concert at a Syracuse amphitheater was pushed back, fireworks were canceled at Niagara Falls and racing was canceled at New York’s Belmont Park two days before the famed Belmont Stakes. It wasn’t yet clear whether the Triple Crown race itself might be affected; Gov. Kathy Hochul said that would depend on the air quality at the track Saturday.And in central Pennsylvania, Country Meadows Retirement Communities temporarily closed walking areas and outdoor courtyards designated for residents in secured memory support units — “they may or may not recognize when they experience respiratory distress,” explained company spokesperson Kelly Kuntz. All 2,300 residents of its 10 facilities were asked to cancel outdoor trips and strenuous outdoor activities.“Bocce is huge,” Kuntz said. “No bocce ball until this is done.”

ROMANS 1:18-32
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:(HOMOSEXUALITY,AND ALL SEX SINS)

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

"I’ll take a punch for queer and trans youth any day:" Ottawa MPP punched in the face at rally supporting queer and trans youth-Ottawa MPP attacked while attending rally attempting to keep trans and queer individuals safe Corné van Hoepen·Contributor, Yahoo News Canada-Sat, June 10, 2023 at 11:38 a.m. EDT

In the midst of a disturbing rise in hate crimes targeting the LGBTQ2S+ community across Canada, another violent incident has left everyone shocked.Ottawa Centre MPP Joel Harden was assaulted by an anti-trans protestor while attending a rally in support of queer and trans rights in Ottawa Friday morning.Harden, who recently spoke at the Ontario Legislation on Thursday about the importance of protection for queer and trans youth as the country celebrates Pride Month, was punched several times by the anti-trans protestor.Harden has been attending rallies and protests for over thirty years now, he says.He attended the Broadview rally on Friday morning to support queer and trans youth, and potentially de-escalate any violent situation as events have been targeted by anti-trans protestors in the past."We held a part of the street far away from schools as we did not want to be protesting in front of schools, so we gathered near where they said they would gather," Harden said.Police were also on hand to ensure public safety.Harden estimated around eighty anti-trans protestors at the rally, screaming and coming close to the young people in an attempt to start fights. Although he wasn't comfortable sharing some of the things said, he did say some of them were "absolutely vile".I felt something really bad was going to happenJoel Harden, Ottawa Centre MPPHarden said that out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a woman berating another individual and had her hands in the person's hair. He rushed over and stood between them in an attempt to ensure the safety of everyone in attendance."I felt a punch in the back and then a rabbit-punch to the face," Harden recounted. "It happened in a split-second."One of the members of the rally quickly pulled the woman away after realizing what had happened.Harden, who has long sounded the alarm on rising hate against queer and trans people, believes that there is a deliberate effort to manipulate people's desire to safeguard children and it's being weaponized."I am a father. What measures I wouldn't go to in an effort to protect my own children. But what this movement is doing is convincing individuals that to protect your children, you have to hate trans and queer people," he says.The MPP, who was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario five years ago, believes that much of this hatred stems from a place of fear of not understanding LGBTQ2S+ experiences and that is why, bridges need to be built to start conversations."We are not your enemy," he added.Harden also believes that social media has become this "vitriolic cesspool" where individuals are dehumanizing each other increasingly."History and present day has taught me that there are some of us who are willing to put the work in to de-program hatred, and I'm down for that," said Harden. "If people want to come to my office and throw rotten tomatoes at me, come over."Harden says he remains hopeful that people will come together and build solidarity.Harden says that if he were to ever meet the woman who assaulted him, he would like to"share a meal with her"."If I meet her again, and I hope I do, I would like to share a meal with her, heck, I would pay for it. Then I would ask her what motivated her to do what she did. I want to work together to try and fix our country to make it better," he said.'I'm proud of you': Social media responds to Harden.Harden received an outpouring of support after posting a photo of his bruised face to social media after the incident"I’ll take a punch for queer and trans youth any day," Harden tweeted.NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh shared a tweet saying he was proud of Harden for standing up."Queer and trans people—and kids—are being targeted by angry and hateful extremists. Governments must step up to protect the queer and trans community," he wrote.

Archaeologists discover and replicate earliest musical instrument in the Middle East-Tiny 12,000-year-old bone hunting flute likely used to attract birds of prey for Natufian settlements in Hula Valley-By Melanie Lidman 9 June 2023, 2:11 pm

Archaeologists are hearing for the first time how humans made music some 12,000 years ago, by recreating a flute that was likely used to hunt ducks and other small birds in northern Israel.On Friday, a team of Israeli and French researchers published an article about the recreated bone flute in the peer-reviewed Nature Scientific Report, offering an auditory window into how early humans shifted from hunter-gatherers to more settled villages, creating the earliest known musical instruments ever discovered in the Middle East.The French-Israeli team of archaeologists discovered fragments of seven different flutes, dating to around 10,000 BCE, which is the largest collection of prehistoric sound-producing instruments ever found in the Levant. The pieces were found at the Eynan/Ain Mallaha site, a small village some 35 km (20 miles) north of the Sea of Galilee. The site was inhabited from 12,000 BCE to 8,000 BCE, around the time when humans were undergoing a massive revolution from nomadic hunter-gatherers to more sedentary, semi-settled communities.Dr. Laurent Davin, a post-doctoral fellow at Hebrew University, was examining some of the bones recovered from the site when he noticed tiny holes drilled at regular intervals along a few of the bones. At first, experts had dismissed the holes as regular wear and tear on the delicate bird bones. But Davin examined the bones more closely and noticed that the holes were at very even intervals, and clearly created by humans.“One of the flutes was discovered complete, and so far as is known it is the only one in the world in this state of preservation,” Davin said in a press release that accompanied the article’s publication.Dr. Hamoudi Khalaily, a senior researcher with the IAA, spent 10 years excavating at the Eynan site and was instrumental in creating a replica of the extant flute.“There were a lot of doubts that this was even possible [to recreate], but the replica was created exactly [in the same way] as the original and it allowed us to hear what people would have heard 12,000 years ago,” Khalaily told The Times of Israel.“When we first heard it, it gave us this feeling like, we are really doing something for history,” Khalaily said.The recreated flute produces a screeching, breathy whistling sound that Khalaily and the team believe could be an imitation of predator birds, including falcons, which eat small waterfowl.“The sound could have attracted predator birds, which creates chaos with the other birds, and then it’s very easy to catch them, even with your hands,” explained Khalaily.Previously, nomadic hunter-gathers had focused on bigger game such as gazelles, rabbits, or foxes. But when humans began settling in the Hula Valley for the first time, they started taking advantage of new food sources, including fish and smaller waterfowl in the lake that used to stretch across the Hula Valley.Today, the Hula Valley is still a major conduit for bird migration in the late fall when tens of thousands of birds pass through Israel on their way from Europe to Africa. The Hula Valley was once covered by water, with a 13 square kilometer (5 square mile) lake and 47 square kilometers (18 square miles) of seasonal swamps. Early Zionist pioneers drained the swamp in the early 20th century as a major infrastructure project to create more agricultural land and to combat malaria.A trove of bird bones-At the Eynan site, archaeologists are excavating a small Natufian village, which was a Mesolithic culture in the Levant and Western Asia around 9000 BCE. It’s a unique time because the culture emerged when humans started living a semi-sedentary lifestyle predating the agricultural revolution, meaning they had to find regular food sources in the same area even before they knew how to cultivate them. Once humans became more settled, their culture underwent dramatic societal change including the appearance of burial practices, art, and durable structures.The Eynan site was first excavated by a French mission in 1955 and later from 1996–2005 by a joint team from Israel and France directed by François Valla of the Centre Nationale de Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) and Khalaily of the Israel Antiquities Authority.Excavations at the site are ongoing and it can take years to methodically sift through all of the earth removed from a site and search for fragments of tools, animal bones, or other detritus from daily life thousands of years ago. Over the past two decades, careful sifting has yielded 1,112 bird bones from the Eynan site.The bone flute was researched and recreated by a team of French and Israeli experts, consisting of archaeologists and archaeozoologists, who study animal bones, ethnomusicologists, paleo-organologists (the research of ancient sound-making instruments), and technical experts that were able to find ways to recreate the exact placement of the finger holes.The original flutes, also called aerophones because they are an instrument that produces sound due to vibrating air, were made from the hollow wing bones of the Eurasian teal and the Eurasian coot. The current replica was made from the wing bones of two female mallard ducks “because of the difficulty in obtaining carcasses of Eurasian coot (Fulica atra) used by the Natufians,” the article stated.The tinier the bone, the more difficult it is to play. The researchers believe the bones were chosen specifically to mimic the calls of the Eurasian Sparrowhawk and the Common Kestrel, two birds of prey that were widespread in the Hula Valley.The flute represents the oldest musical instrument found locally, but it is not the oldest aerophone that has been discovered. Most of the known Paleolithic sound-making instruments are found in Europe, and the oldest dates to around 40,000 years ago, which was found in southwestern Germany, made from bird bone and mammoth ivory.Previous to this discovery, the only known “music” or sound production during the Paleolithic and Neolithic periods in the Levant was from a few studies suggesting that humans could have developed a belt of bone pendants that clacked and rattled, or possibly a bone whistle (flute with no fingerholes).The flute represents an important discovery, but it’s not music to everyone’s ears.“I heard it for the first time on Youtube, and it’s really a terrible tone, it’s high and pitchy and not nice at all to my ear,” said Prof. Rivka Rabinovich, the scientific director of archeozoological collections at the National Natural History Collections at the Hebrew University. Rabinovich, an expert in studying and interpreting the remains of ancient mammal bones has been studying the discoveries from the Eynan site for years.Rabinovich added that there’s no way of knowing whether ancient humans had a similar cringe reaction when they heard it; whether it was used for hunting, communication, or making music.But it opens a window into a fascinating point in human development, the complexity of society and their ability to make tools. The small finger holes in the flute were drilled with the talon of a larger bird, likely a falcon. Archaeologists believe that talons also had spiritual significance to early humans, Khalaily said.“It’s very interesting because this is just at the starting point of people becoming more sedentary,” Rabinovich said. “It’s a very exciting period at which to understand the day-to-day life and also larger questions beyond day-to-day life, and why they did certain things.”She credited the discovery to the large and varied French-Israeli team, which united researchers and archaeologists with areas of expertise in niche areas like reconstructing bone tools and interpreting scratches made in animal bones.“The message from this is that you really need to save everything [excavated from a site] because you always see these things with new eyes and new tools,” she said. “It takes a long time to sift through things, and when you look at it anew, you can see it differently. That’s because there’s continually new research, there’s continually new technology, and new ways to investigate new information. And it all works together to create a more complete picture of what happened there.”
