Ontario Updating COVID-19 Measures in Long-Term Care Homes-High vaccine uptake and effective antivirals allow Ontario to adjust its COVID-19 response-March 22, 2023

TORONTO — As Ontario approaches the end of respiratory illness season, the province is updating its COVID-19 measures in long-term care homes in consultation with the Chief Medical Officer of Health. While homes will continue to be required to monitor residents daily to detect the presence of infection and indoor masking requirements remain in place at this time, other guidance and requirements that are no longer necessary are being adjusted to reflect the high vaccine uptake among residents and the availability of safe and effective antivirals that are reducing the risk of severe outcomes to residents. These changes will bring Ontario into alignment with other provinces across the country that have already made similar adjustments.“Over the past three years, the COVID-19 pandemic has required sacrifices from individuals, families, businesses, the health care system and especially the long-term care sector. Thanks to their continued efforts, Ontario has reached a point where it can begin a safe, cautious and balanced reduction of public health measures in long-term care homes across the province,” said Dr. Kieran Moore, Chief Medical Officer of Health. “The health and safety of residents remains paramount, and we will continue to work with the sector to ensure residents and their families receive the level of care they need and deserve, in a safe and comfortable environment.”Working with the Office of the Chief Medical Officer of Health, Ontario is taking a phased approach to updating COVID-19 measures for people living in, working in or visiting long-term care homes. The first phase involves realigning measures effective March 31, 2023, including:Testing of staff, caregivers and visitors who don’t show symptoms (asymptomatic) is no longer required.Masking outdoors is no longer recommended for residents, caregivers and visitors, although wearing a mask outdoors continues to be recommended for staff when they are close to a resident.Daily temperature checks or screening of residents returning from an absence is no longer required.Removing the limit of one caregiver at a time during a COVID-19 outbreak, or when a resident is symptomatic or isolating.Social and physical activities can be held without adjusting for physical distancing.Long-term care homes that have retained COVID-19 proof-of-vaccination requirements are also encouraged to revisit their policies and consider allowing visitors and qualified staff, regardless of their vaccination status.They will also help ensure people living in long-term care get the quality of care and quality of life they need, and that valuable staff time and resources are focused on resident care and effective infection prevention and control practices. The government will continue to work closely with the Chief Medical Officer of Health to monitor the pandemic to keep homes safe for residents and staff.Quick Facts-By updating the province’s COVID-19 measures, Ontario will now be aligned with other provinces across the country, including Quebec, New Brunswick, Alberta, and Saskatchewan.The Ontario government is providing up to $1.25 billion to long-term care homes this year to hire and retain thousands of additional long-term care staff, part of the government’s historic four-year, $4.9 billion commitment to ensure residents receive, on average, four hours of direct care per day by March 31, 2025.Through a $6.4 billion investment, Ontario now has 31,705 new and 28,648 upgraded beds in development across the province. This will help increase overall bed capacity, address long-term care waitlists and hallway health care, and provide our seniors the care they deserve.Ontario is a leading province in terms of inspector per long-term care home ratio in Canada, with one inspector for every two homes in the province.Quotes-"The Ontario Long Term Care Association and long-term care (LTC) homes thank the Ontario Government for its support throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, and for those living and working in LTC homes. As the levels of COVID-19 infections decrease and we continue to normalize, we support transitioning to LTC COVID measures based on the expert advice articulated by various long-term care home medical directors that will help bring back a greater quality of life to our homes, and normalize the environment for our residents and families."- Donna Duncan-Chief Executive Officer, Ontario Long Term Care Association "On behalf of the Ontario long-term care clinicians, we support the government’s prudent recalibration of Ontario’s COVID-19 measures. We believe these changes will continue to prioritize the safety and well-being of residents while also reflecting the new reality and trajectory of the COVID-19 Pandemic." - Rhonda Collins-President, Ontario Long-Term Care Clinicians"OARC supports the government’s decision to adjust COVID-19 measures in long-term care homes intended to improve the quality of living for residents, including ease of access to the people of importance to them. We echo the government’s direction to licensees to continue to consult with Residents’ Councils, ensuring that residents are meaningfully engaged in shaping visitor policies and the implementation of any practice changes in their homes."- Ontario Association of Residents’ Councils

Trump holds first 2024 campaign rally, dismissing potential looming indictment-Former US president plays tribute to Capitol insurrectionists in Waco, Texas, says New York grand jury is probing him for something that’s ‘not a crime’-By Jill Colvin and Michelle L. Price-MAR 26,23-Today, 5:26 am

WACO, Texas (AP) — Facing a potential indictment, former US president Donald Trump took a defiant stance at a rally Saturday in Waco, disparaging the prosecutors investigating him and predicting his vindication as he rallied supporters in a city made famous by deadly resistance against law enforcement.With a hand over his heart, Trump stood at attention when his rally opened with a song called “Justice for All” performed by a choir of people imprisoned for their roles in the January 6, 2021, insurrection at the US Capitol. Some footage from the insurrection was shown on big screens displayed at the rally site as the choir sang the national anthem and a recording played of Trump reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.The extraordinary display opened Trump’s first rally of his 2024 Republican presidential campaign. He then launched into a speech brimming with resentments and framed the probes, including a New York grand jury investigation, as political attacks on him and his followers.“You will be vindicated and proud,” Trump said. “The thugs and criminals who are corrupting our justice system will be defeated, discredited and totally disgraced.”Trump’s event at the airport grounds in Waco was part of a broader effort by the former president to use the potential indictment as a rallying cry for supporters to maintain his status as the GOP frontrunner in what is expected to be a crowded primary. It came one day after Trump raised the specter of violence should he become the first former president in US history to face criminal charges.Trump declared his innocence in the Manhattan investigation into a hush money payment made during the 2016 election to porn actor Stormy Daniels to keep her from going public about a sexual encounter she said she had with Trump years earlier. A grand jury hearing the case is expected to meet again on Monday.Trump said the Manhattan district attorney was investigating him “for something that is not a crime, not a misdemeanor, not an affair.”Some of Trump’s recent rhetoric, including at the rally, has echoed language he used before the Capitol insurrection by a mob of his supporters seeking to stop the transfer of power to Democrat Joe Biden, who won the presidential election.Trump declared Saturday that his “enemies are desperate to stop us” and that “our opponents have done everything they can to crush our spirit and to break our will.”He added: “But they failed. They’ve only made us stronger. And 2024 is the final battle, it’s going to be the big one. You put me back in the White House, their reign will be over and America will be a free nation once again.”Trump could be indicted soon by a Manhattan grand jury investigating a $130,000 payment that Trump’s longtime lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, made as Trump was in the throes of his 2016 presidential campaign.Trump later reimbursed Cohen and his company logged the reimbursements as a legal expense. Cohen has already served time in prison after pleading guilty to campaign finance charges and lying to Congress, among other crimes.Trump’s eyebrow-raising choice of venue in Waco for his first rally came amid the 30th anniversary of a 51-day standoff and deadly siege between US law enforcement and the Branch Davidians that resulted in the deaths of more than 80 members of the religious cult and four federal agents and has become a touchstone for far-right extremists and militia groups.Trump’s campaign insisted the location and timing of the event had nothing to do with the Waco siege or its anniversary. A spokesperson said the site, 17 miles from the Branch Davidian compound, was chosen because it was conveniently situated near four of the state’s biggest metropolitan areas — Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, Austin and San Antonio — and has the infrastructure to handle a sizable crowd.Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick said before Trump’s arrival that he was the one who had suggested Waco as the venue. Any suggestion Trump had picked the city because of the anniversary was “fake news. I picked Waco!” he told the crowd.Trump did not make any direct references in his speech to Waco’s history, telling the crowd of thousands that he told Patrick he wanted to hold his rally in a place with overwhelming support, not “one of those 50-50 areas,” and said he told Patrick: “Let’s go right into the heart of it.”At several points, Trump criticized Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is expected to run for president and is seen as his strongest potential challenger for the GOP nomination. Trump called his one-time ally disloyal and said he was “dropping like a rock.”Audience members were holding red and white signs handed out by the campaign that said “Witch Hunt,” “Trump 2024” and “I stand with Trump.”Hours before Trump arrived, hundreds of his supporters began streaming into the airport past vendors selling merchandise, including Trump flags, bumper stickers and action figures.Among them was Eugene Torres, 41, who said he was unfazed by the prospect that Trump could be indicted.“It’s just another political attack on him to keep him from running and winning this race again,” said Torres, who is from the Texas coast city of Corpus Christi.Alan Kregel, 56, traveled with his wife from Dallas to see Trump in person for the first time. While he voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020, he said he felt the former president’s “methods and vocabulary” often detracted from his policies. But now, two years out of office, he said he is more supportive of Trump than he was before.“He’s an innocent man, just persecuted,” said Kregel, arguing an indictment would help Trump win in 2024.Trump has spent weeks now railing against the New York probe and in a post on his social media site on Friday warned of “potential death & destruction in such a false charge” if he’s charged with a crime.In a move that seemed designed to preempt a formal announcement, he claimed last Saturday that he would be arrested the following Tuesday. While that did not happen, Trump has used the days since to try to shape public perception — echoing a strategy he has used before, including during special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.Trump has also repeatedly invoked violence, urging his supporters to protest, and used increasingly racist and dehumanizing rhetoric as he has launched ever more personal attacks against Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.On Friday, a powdery substance was found with a threatening letter in a mailroom at Bragg’s offices, authorities said. Officials later determined the substance wasn’t dangerous.Even before the threatening letter was sent to Bragg’s office, Democrats warned that Trump’s remarks had the potential to incite violence.“The twice-impeached former president’s rhetoric is reckless, reprehensible and irresponsible. It’s dangerous, and if he keeps it up he’s going to get someone killed,” House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries of New York said.In addition to the Manhattan case, Trump is also facing an investigation in Georgia over his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election as well as federal investigations into his handling of classified documents and possible obstruction, as well as his efforts on January 6.

It’s in the DNA: Israeli grapes are the mother of all European wines-Massive DNA study of over 3,500 wild and domesticated grapevines overturns what historians thought they knew about the first cultivation of grapes and wine-By Melanie Lidman    25 March 2023, 2:09 pm

A massive study that sequenced the DNA of more than 3,525 grape cultivars from around the world, published this month in the journal Science, has upended the history of how humans first domesticated grapes for winemaking and may reveal important information about how a few shriveled ancient Israeli grape seeds could save the future of winemaking from global warming.Dr. Wei Chen of the Yunnan Agricultural Institution in southern China first started sequencing the DNA of grape cultivars in 2017 for a study of Chinese grape varieties. He and his lab sequenced almost 500 grapevines and found that through the DNA they could track the way different grape varieties migrated across the country, and how cultivars split off from one another to form distinct varieties.He and his colleagues realized that if they could get their hands on enough varieties’ DNA, they would be able to map the migration of different varieties throughout the world, and throughout time, pinpointing when humans domesticated grapes for the first time.The concept of creating a global study started off as a spitball idea among friends. But in 2019, Chen and his lab decided to take the plunge and launched an international research project focusing on grape cultivars.“We started to reach out to our friends and colleagues in Europe, and we got the first batch from Germany, France, and Spain,” said Chen.Colleagues sent dried young leaves from various local grape varieties, so Chen’s lab could extract and sequence the DNA, or they sequenced the DNA of local varieties themselves and sent Chen the results.“Then colleagues from Europe started to call up their friends and colleagues, and we just got more and more people into this international collaboration,” said Chen.Within a few months, Chen’s lab got to work sequencing the DNA and looking for patterns after they received samples from 90 scientists in 70 countries of both wild and domesticated grapes — with the Israeli contingent being the largest.Grapes that share more DNA are more closely related, while those that have little DNA in common are less related. Tracking unique bits of DNA allows Chen and his lab to trace when different varieties split off from each other, and when domesticated grapes split from wild grapes.The results were completely different from what Chen or anyone else had expected. Previously, it was widely believed that grapes were domesticated around 8,000 years ago during the Neolithic Agricultural Revolution, likely somewhere in the Fertile Crescent.The key result from our study is that the original belief that there was only one domestication event was completely wrong.But by tracking the DNA from the thousands of samples, Chen pinpointed that there were actually two simultaneous domestication events, each around 11,000 years ago. One happened in Western Asia, and the other happened 1,500 kilometers away in the Caucasus.“The key result from our study is that the original belief that there was only one domestication event was completely wrong,” said Chen. He said the belief that there was a single domestication event of grapes had seeped into history books so deeply that scientists no longer questioned it, and this was a good reminder that much of what is “known” about ancient history is really just conjecture.One thing that the DNA sequencing did confirm is that the movement of grape varieties throughout the world correlates closely with human migration routes.“Grapevines are really a wonderful crop that has so much to do with human history,” said Chen. “There were way more varieties [of grapes] than any other crop, and we actually care about this crop. We give each cultivar a name, and you can find these names in historical records. Naming of varieties started very late in history for other crops.”A white grape in the wild-Prof. Elyashiv Drori, a senior lecturer at Ariel University and head of the Samson Wine and Research Center, has been swashbuckling through Israel’s last untamed wilderness for the past 12 years in search of the country’s last surviving wild grapes.For Chen’s study, Israel’s submissions, collected by Drori and archaeobotanist Dr. Ehud Weiss of Bar Ilan University, constituted the largest contingent of wild grapes from a single country, or about 10 percent of the total wild grapes sequenced for the study.Using this rich data set, the study determined that around 8,000 years ago, domesticated table grapes from Israel crossed with wild grapes in Turkey and then migrated throughout Europe. Today, every European wine grape – from the German Reisling to the French Chardonnay – can be traced back to this interaction.“Spanish, French, German – every country had its own regional development of specific varieties, that all started from table grapes from Israel bred with wild grapes from Turkey,” said Drori.Israel is the only country involved in the study to have wild white grapes, which Drori located. He is constantly astounded by the variety of wild grapes found in the country, which he calls “the wild grapevine mother collection.”He started searching for the country’s wild grapes more than a decade ago with a different goal in mind.“The idea was to try to find the ancient grapevines used for winemaking in ancient Israel,” said Drori.Ancient Israeli winemaking was among the most developed in the world, until the 7th century, when alcohol fell out of favor following the Islamic conquest. For that reason, many of the surviving domesticated grape cultivars in Israel are for table grapes, which were selected for things such as large berry size, high sugar, long shelf life, and delicate skin. Wine grapes generally have higher acid, and attributes such as berry size, shelf life, and skin toughness do not matter.Because of the decline in wine production during the Islamic period, the cultivation of grapes used for making wine in ancient times tapered off. This means today’s wild grape varieties are the most genetically similar to the types of grapes grown for ancient wine. Drori hopes it’s only a matter of time before he finds a wild grape with closely matching DNA to the grapes found in archaeological digs.Each grape variety has a unique seed structure, like a thumbprint, that can be mapped, explained Drori. Any excavated grape seed that is larger than five milliliters can be scanned by high-powered microscopes to see if a match can be identified with modern counterparts. So far, Drori’s lab has scanned 20 seeds from archaeological digs.The biggest haul of ancient material came from archaeologist Dr. Eilat Mazar, who excavated at the Ophel, between the City of David and the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.“She called me one day and said, ‘I have three kilos of grapes,’” Drori recalled. “I said, you mean seeds? And she said, ‘No, three kilos of grapes.’ I dropped everything and ran to her lab. They found a big pot, maybe a wine jar used for fermentation. They also found a very nice inscription on it that says ‘smooth wine’ so we know what it was for.” The dried berries dated to around the 10th century BCE, said Drori.Over the years, by scrambling up hillsides and through abandoned villages, Drori has collected about 600 wild grape plants from across the country, representing more than 90 varieties. Most wild grapevines are concentrated near areas of water, including the Jordan River, around the Sea of Galilee, and along streams running through the Golan Heights.However, as Israel develops the last tracks of untouched land, these wild grape varieties are at risk of disappearing. Wild grape vines are not protected plants in Israel, though Drori is trying to petition the Nature and Parks Authority to give them protection like wildflowers or other endangered plants.-The future of wine is in Israeli wild grapes-Drori is a winemaker himself, and he believes that Israeli wild grapes may hold secrets to helping other varieties face climate change.All Israeli grapes – wild and domesticated – have adapted to thrive amid heat waves and drought conditions. Wild grapes could also have new genes that scientists and vintners haven’t even considered.“We already have the conditions here that will start other regions of the world in 20 or 30 years,” said Drori. “We might be able to find new genes, like finding stress-resistant genes, or find stronger plants.”As the climate warms, winemakers around the world are scrambling to adapt to changing conditions.“Grapevines that were selected and bred in the northern hemisphere, in cooler areas will not be suitable,” said Drori. “Now is the time to look into Levantine populations and understand which genes give strains unique drought resistance and heat resistance, and try to breed them into known varieties in areas where climate change will happen,” he said.Chen from China agreed, saying, “The genetic diversity in wild grapes is beyond our imagination, and until now, we didn’t have the chance to see it, let alone analyze it.”Currently, Drori and his lab are cultivating some of the wild vines they’ve found, while cleaning them of viruses and pathogens that occur naturally in the wild but could decimate domesticated crops.Drori hopes that in the future, enterprising Israeli vintners will use not just ancient grape varieties but other artisanal methods, including fermentation inside ceramic vessels and other ancient tactics, the way people once made wine thousands of years ago. He envisions a boutique wine experience offering a glass of wine close to one that King David could have drunk.“Wine processes are always changing throughout history, and can be connected to different empires that ruled and how it impacted things differently,” said Drori. “One of the interesting things about wine and grape vines is that they were so important that the dispersion of humankind was almost simultaneous with the distribution of wine. Once people moved into new territories and built civilizations, they always brought the wine.”

New York’s power to regulate religious schools, including yeshivas, trimmed by judge-Ruling says parents cannot be forced to pull children from private schools that do not meet educational standards, amid ongoing battle over yeshiva education in New York State-By Michael Hill-24 March 2023, 11:38 pm

ALBANY, New York (AP) — Parents cannot be required to pull their children from private schools in New York that fail to meet state-designated standards, a judge decided Friday, striking down a key provision of rules recently passed to strengthen oversight of such schools, including those specializing in religious education.The ruling in a state trial court in Albany came in response to a lawsuit brought by Haredi Jewish schools, called yeshivas, and related advocacy groups over education rules enacted last fall. Under the rules, the state’s 1,800 private and religious schools must provide an education that is “substantially equivalent” to that of a public school.Opponents in the Haredi community say the rules improperly target yeshivas, some of which focus intently on religious instruction with far less teaching in secular subjects such as English, math and science.The issue has become a major flashpoint for the Haredi community in New York, amid a series of prominent, controversial articles by The New York Times attacking the school system.Judge Christina Ryba on Thursday rejected an argument that the state regulations were unconstitutional. But she said state officials overstepped their authority in setting penalties for schools that don’t adhere to them.Specifically, she said education officials lack legal authority to make parents take their children out of schools that fall short of the requirements, and they don’t have the authority to order that those schools be closed.Ryba said parents of those children could still receive required instruction in combination with sources, such as homeschooling.A co-plaintiff cheered the judge’s rejection of the “draconian penalties.”“In striking those provisions of the regulations, the Court agreed with parents and non-public schools across New York State who opposed these regulations,” read a prepared statement from the group Parents for Educational and Religious Liberty in Schools (PEARLS).Yaffed, a group that supports reforming yeshivas, said it was concerned by parts of the new ruling.“We worry that Hasidic yeshivas will continue to benefit from the extraordinary amount of funding available to them without fulfilling their obligations to the children,” said Beatrice Weber, Yaffed’s executive director.The state Education Department said the decision validates its commitment to improving the educational experience for all students.“We remain committed to ensuring students who attend school in settings consistent with their religious and cultural beliefs and values receive the education to which they are legally entitled,” read the prepared statement.It was not clear if any aspects of the ruling would be appealed.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Biden blasted for claiming GOP would slash border funding: 'Must be a parody'Biden previously said 'there are more important things going on' than border crisis-By Jessica Chasmar | Fox News

Former Border Patrol Chief Rodney Scott discusses the state of security at the U.S. southern border, hammering the impact the Biden administration’s border policy have caused.President Biden felt the wrath of the Twitter ratio Saturday after he claimed "MAGA" Republicans want to cut federal funding for border security."MAGA House Republican proposals would slash funding for border security – a move that could allow nearly 900 pounds of fentanyl into our country," the president tweeted. "We need more resources to secure the border. Not less."Biden’s tweet included a photo of himself shaking hands with a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer, which was taken from his first and only trip to the border in El Paso, Texas, in January. Photos taken by Getty showed Biden briefly spoke with CBP officers sitting inside a mobile X-ray truck on the Bridge of the Americas border crossing.The post was quickly noticed by Republicans and Twitter users overwhelmingly "ratioed" the post, giving it far more negative replies than retweets and likes.Biden took a brief trip to El Paso in January after facing fierce criticism for not visiting the border since taking office while thousands of illegal immigrants continue to flood into the U.S. undetected every day.In December, after nearly two years in office, the president said he hadn’t visited the U.S.-Mexico border because "there are more important things going on." At the time he had already taken 59 trips to Delaware and stopped for ice cream at least eight times.Fox News Digital previously reported that Border Patrol agents seized more than 800 pounds of fentanyl between ports of entry this fiscal year, which began in October amid continued concerns about the lethal drug getting into the U.S.The head of the U.S. Border Patrol told lawmakers earlier this month the agency does not have operational control of the U.S. southern border and also said migration levels were at "crisis" levels in some places. It was also revealed this week that Border Patrol had reached one million migrant encounters already for fiscal year 2023.Biden released his budget proposal on March 9, and while House Republicans have yet to release a plan, the president has taken aim at a proposal from the House Freedom Caucus.President Joe Biden walks down the stairs of Air Force One with first lady Jill Biden after arriving in Canada to meet with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau."MAGA House Republicans put out extreme budget proposals that would eliminate funding for over 2,000 border patrol agents – undermining our ability to combat drug trafficking," Biden tweeted on Tuesday. "My budget keeps our borders secure while expanding legal pathways for migrants seeking asylum."Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., blasted Biden's claim, tweeting, "A total fabrication. In your 2024 budget proposal, you call for billion-dollar cuts to border security operations and ICE. By the way, it took you 80 years to get that picture."Fox News' Adam Shaw contributed to this report.

Explosion at R.M. Palmer chocolate factory in Pennsylvania leaves 3 dead, company offers condolences-Three people have been confirmed dead, and several others hurt, after an explosion at the historic chocolate factory-By Sarah Rumpf | Fox News

Chocolate factory explosion kills at least 2 and leaves five unaccounted forFox News correspondent CB Cotton has the latest on recovery efforts out of the R.M. Palmer Company chocolate factory blast in West Reading, Pa., on 'Fox News Live.'Three people have been confirmed dead, and several others wounded, after an explosion at R.M Palmer Factory, a historic chocolate factory in Pennsylvania, officials confirmed.On Saturday evening, West Reading Borough Police Department confirmed with FOX 29 Philadelphia that three people died and five are unaccounted for following the fiery blast on Friday evening.On Saturday morning, officials say there was "a sign of hope" after one person was found alive among the rubble of the deadly blast."Someone was found alive in rubble, not knowing if they were going to live or die," West Reading City Council Vice President Philip Wert said in a press conference. "We found the person, and now they have a second chance."The identity of the person, as well as their current condition, has not yet been released.On Saturday, March 25, one day after the fatal explosion and fire, the RM Palmer company released a statement, sharing their condolences with those who lost loved ones in the fatal accident."The tragic events that occurred on Friday have had a profound impact on all of us at R.M. Palmer, and we appreciate the outpouring of support as all of us continue to deal with the loss of our friends and coworkers. We offer our heartfelt condolences to those families who have lost loved ones and hope those injured will recover quickly," the company said in a Facebook post."We offer our heartfelt condolences to those families who have lost loved ones and hope those injured will recover quickly."— - R.M Palmer Company"We have always viewed our employees as family and are focused now more than ever on providing any support we can to you and the families of employees directly affected by this tragedy," RM Company continued.During a press conference Saturday morning, officials said recovery efforts were still underway as rescue workers on the scene search for survivors. A spokesperson from Tower Health said eight people were taken to Reading Hospital. One victim was transferred to another facility, two people are in fair condition and five have been discharged.Liz Soto, who was near the explosion, told FOX 29 she heard "a loud noise, like a roaring sound, then the house shook." She also said she hadn't heard from a friend who works inside the factory."She went to work, she's confirmed to have gone to work, but we don't know anything about her," Soto told the outlet."Our hearts break for the families of those who didn’t come home… We are with you."— - Pennsylvania Govenor Josh Shapiro-Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro visited the explosion site Saturday, pledging resources for first responders to continue the rescue effort."Our hearts break for the families of those who didn’t come home… We are with you – and my administration is here to provide all the resources and support West Reading needs."

Dr. Kedar: Left-Wing Protests threaten Israeli Democracy-Why do nations assemble, and peoples plot vain things;Psalms-21Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz-Israel News-March 24, 2023

Israel is being brought to a standstill due to mass protests over the judicial reform proposed by Prime Minister Netanyahu’s coalition government. Despite the stated purpose of the protests, they have taken on other left-wing positions with Palestinian flags appearing and a strong anti-Netanyahu element. Yair Lapid, the former Prime Minister and current head of the opposition, is fanning the flames of the protests.Dr. Mordechai Kedar, a senior lecturer in the Department of Arabic at Bar-Ilan University, has a strong take on the protests, suggesting they pose an existential threat to Israeli democracy.Mordechai Kedar (courtesy: Facebook)-“The left-wing is trying to perpetuate its rule over the country through the judicial system,” Dr. Kedar told Israel365 News. “That is the essence of what is happening here. They are grabbing at the last bit of power they have.”Indeed, Meretz, a left-wing extremist party, was formed in 1992 and was at its peak in 1996 when it had 12 seats in the Knesset. They failed to pass the threshold in 2020 and no longer have representation in the Knesset. Similarly, the left-wing labor party formed in 1968 is associated with European socialists. It was the dominant political party until 1977. The party has been in decline and garnered four seats in the last election.“Even though the left wing has lost the elections time and again, they still hold control through the court system,” Dr. Kedar said. “The judicial system has legal advisors throughout the Knesset who are the people who have a huge influence on the decisions. This has no parallel in the US judicial system which separates the judicial from the legislative. There is actually no point in voting for the Knesset since they do not make the decisions. The supreme court does not act as a part of the judicial branch. It is actually a super legislator. It is self-appointing and supersedes the legislative at every turn.”Dr. Kedar said that this outsized judicial power was instilled within the judicial system by Aharon Barak in the 1990s. Barak was an Israeli lawyer and jurist who served as President of the Supreme Court of Israel from 1995 to 2006. Prior to this, Barak served as a Justice of the Supreme Court of Israel from 1978 to 1995, and before this as Attorney General of Israel from 1975 to 1978. In the course of his service on the Supreme Court Barak greatly expanded the range of issues with which the court dealt. During his time as President of the Supreme Court, Barak advanced a judicial activist approach, whereby the court was not required to limit itself to judicial interpretation, but rather was permitted to fill the gaps in the law through judicial legislation at common law. This approach was highly controversial and was met with much opposition, including from some left-wing politicians.“Those who oppose the proposed reforms claim that the Supreme Court has struck down 22 different laws passed by the Knesset on the grounds that the laws contradict Israel’s Basic Laws,” Dr. Kedar said. “While this is technically true, there were thousands of laws that were never brought up in the Knesset because they never stood a chance with the Supreme Court holding all the power and it was clear they would not approve those laws,” Dr. Kedar said, adding, “And the Supreme court clones itself. Without a major action, judicial activism by the Supreme Court would never end.”Dr. Kedar suggested that there will be a solution.“There will have to be some kind of compromise,” Dr. Kedar said. “Both sides will walk away disappointed. They must accept this because if there is no compromise, there will be no state.”“My concern is that the left wing doesn’t care. If they don’t feel that this country is working according to their dictates, they can fly away to a different country where their form of politics is popular. They love the country only so long as it works according to their dictates.”Dr. Kedar saw this as a result of the social divide between the religious Zionists and the secular Zionists.“Secular Zionism is conditional love,” Dr. Kedar said. “Religious Zionism is entirely unlike secular Zionism. The religious love for Israel is unconditional. Even if the political system is not what they want, they will never leave and never stop loving Israel.”“When the government decided to dismantle Gush Katif, there were protests. It was the worst possible thing the government could do in the eyes of the religious. But they didn’t call to take the government down. They didn’t bring the country to a total standstill. They didn’t turn to foreign governments to pressure the Prime Minister.”

Stuck in a swamp’: With Iran detente, Saudi Arabia seeks exit from Yemen war-Analysts say that after 8-year campaign against Houthi rebels, Riyadh wants to ‘wash its hands’ of the situation to focus on ambitious rebranding effort aimed at drawing tourists-By Hashem Osseiran-MAR 26,23-Today, 6:50 am

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AFP) — Eight years after launching its military campaign in Yemen, Saudi Arabia wants to extricate itself from the conflict, despite slim hopes of lasting peace, to focus on ambitious projects at home.The oil-rich monarchy gave a signal this month by announcing plans to resume ties with Iran, which backs Yemen’s Houthi rebels against the Saudi-supported government in a proxy war.But as Saudi Arabia instigates sweeping social and economic changes as part of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s “Vision 2030” reform, it “is seeking to shift its approach in Yemen from a military strategy to a soft security and political one,” said Ahmed Nagi, from the International Crisis Group.Since the Saudi-led military intervention began on March 26, 2015, the kingdom has pounded its impoverished neighbor with airstrikes in a conflict that has triggered one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises, according to the United Nations.Hundreds of thousands of people have been killed through direct and indirect causes, with 4.5 million people internally displaced and more than two-thirds of the population living below the poverty line, according to UN estimates.Nagi said that “military operations, such as airstrikes” are now likely to cease, adding that the priority now is a “diplomatic solution.”The Saudi-led intervention, which marks its eighth anniversary on Sunday, came after the Houthis took control of the capital Sanaa in 2014.A UN-brokered ceasefire that took effect last April brought a sharp reduction in hostilities. Even though the truce expired in October, fighting has largely remained on hold.Even before the truce, Saudi Arabia and the Houthis were engaging in back-channel negotiations, including talks in neutral neighbor Oman.Riyadh’s top priority is securing border areas and stopping the drone and missile attacks that have targeted its all-important oil facilities, analysts say.“Saudi [Arabia] is currently negotiating with the Houthis to establish understandings that would enable it to secure its borderlands while maintaining influence” in areas controlled by Yemen’s government, Nagi said.“This new approach could enable Saudi [Arabia] to remain the key actor in Yemen’s domestic politics, to ensure that no security threats can affect the kingdom in case conflict continues at the local level,” Nagi added.The Saudi-led intervention’s stated aim was to protect civilians from Houthi attacks, restore the government and stop Yemen from becoming a safe haven for Iranian-backed forces.Eight years in, the rebels control swathes of the country and command an impressive arsenal of weapons that they have used to attack Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, another coalition member.For Riyadh, the fallout jeopardizes a rebranding project that aims to turn the conservative country into a hub for tourism and investment.Saudi Arabia, relatively closed off for decades, is building a $500 billion futuristic new city, NEOM, and a swathe of holiday resorts and attractions.‘Wash their hands’“There is a huge focus in Saudi [Arabia] now on development, tourism, mega-projects,” said an analyst following the negotiations between Riyadh and Houthi officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the press.For Riyadh, there is concern that “anything involving conflict” will harm investment and stability, the analyst added.The unofficial talks with the Houthis are now maturing into a potential “understanding” that could pave the way for a slimmer Saudi military role ahead of a UN-sponsored inter-Yemeni dialogue, the analyst said.“They want to go from some form of Saudi-Houthi understanding to being able to hand it over to a wider UN process,” he said.The Saudis “want to wash their hands of the situation,” and avoid responsibility for any future flare-ups, he added.A Saudi official, also speaking anonymously, said the country “will not tolerate any threat to our security,” noting it shares a long border with Yemen.“Iran can and should play a major part in promoting this — and we hope it will,” the official said, confirming negotiations with the Houthis aimed at reviving UN-facilitated peace talks.“We did see some progress of course, and we want to build on that progress to achieve lasting peace to open up for a political solution,” the official said.Many analysts are pessimistic that Riyadh’s plans for a downsized military role will bring peace to Yemen, which remains deeply fractured along religious, regional and political lines.Saudi Arabia, nonetheless, has “decided to leave Yemen whatever the price is,” said an Arab diplomat in Riyadh. “They are… stuck in a swamp that is very costly on all levels.”

Saudi Arabia, Syria discuss restoring ties amid Mideast reshuffling-Saudi TV reports talks on reopening embassy in Damascus, after Chinese-backed deal to reestablish relations with Iran-By ABBY SEWELL-24 March 2023, 1:06 pm

BEIRUT (AP) — Saudi Arabia is in talks with Syria to reopen its embassy in the war-torn nation for the first time in a decade, state television in the kingdom reported late Thursday, the latest diplomatic reshuffling in the region.The announcement on state TV comes after Chinese-mediated talks in Beijing saw Saudi Arabia and Iran agree to reopen embassies in each others’ nations after years of tensions. Syrian President Bashar Assad has maintained his grip on power in the Mediterranean nation rocked by the 2011 Arab Spring only with the help of Iran and Russia.Saudi Arabian state television aired a report late Thursday, quoting an anonymous official in the country’s Foreign Ministry, acknowledging the talks between the kingdom and Damascus.“A source in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs revealed to Al-Ekhbariyah that ongoing discussions have begun with the Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, commenting on what was circulated by some international media,” an anchor said on air. “Discussions are underway between officials in the kingdom and their counterparts in Syria about resuming the provision of consular services.”Arabic-language media had been reporting the possible detente in recent days ahead of the Saudi state TV announcement. The Wall Street Journal, quoting anonymous Saudi and Syrian officials, attributed the talks to reopen the countries’ embassies to Russian mediation.Syrian state media did not immediately acknowledge the talks. Officials in both Saudi Arabia and Syria did not immediately respond to requests for comment from The Associated Press early Friday.Earlier Thursday, Russian President Vladimir Putin called Oman’s Sultan Haitham bin Tariq, which the Kremlin called “the first high-level bilateral contact since the establishment of diplomatic relations” between the nations. Muscat established ties with the Soviet Union in 1985.Oman long has been an interlocutor between the West and Iran. Recent months have seen talks in Oman over Yemen’s long-running war, in which Saudi Arabia backs the country’s exiled government against the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels that hold its capital, Sanaa.The kingdom backed the Syrian opposition against Assad during Syria’s uprising-turned-civil war that began in 2011. However, in recent years, a regional rapprochement has been brewing. Last month’s devastating earthquake in Syria and Turkey sparked international sympathy and speeded up the process, with Saudi and other Arab countries shipping aid to Damascus.Assad visited Oman in late February. He traveled Sunday to the United Arab Emirates, another nation that earlier had backed fighters trying to topple his government.Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister has acknowledged publicly that there is a growing consensus among Arab countries that dialogue with Damascus is necessary. Saudi Arabia is hosting the next Arab League summit in May, where most states hope to restore Syria’s membership after it was suspended in 2011, the league’s secretary-general, Ahmed Aboul Gheit, has said.China’s and Russia’s interest in the Middle East long has been a concern for US officials, which view the region as crucial to global energy prices even as America pumps more crude oil than ever before and doesn’t rely on Saudi oil as much as it once did. Saudi Arabia has grown closer to Russia as Moscow has rallied allies to back production cuts by OPEC to boost global oil prices amid the coronavirus pandemic.Relations between the US and Saudi Arabia also have been at a low since President Joe Biden took office calling the kingdom a “pariah” over the killing of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018. The State Department and White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Face biometrics market reacts to geopolitical, ethical pressures-Mar 25, 2023, 11:30 am EDT    | Chris Burt

Face biometrics supply chain decisions and certifications, implementations and contracts for government digital identity schemes are the top themes of the most-read articles on Biometric Update over the past week. Wisesoft has a new source of microchips for its 3D facial recognition cameras, while Facewatch is moving away from a camera supplier it used to integrate in its retail biometric solution. Controversy over training data continues to simmer, meanwhile. Deloitte is the biggest winner in a set of UK contracts to support its system for signing in to government services, while Mastercard has been certified as a digital identity provider.South Africa’s government is being taken to court by a human rights advocacy group to change the requirements to register births. Registration for a birth certificate currently requires the submission of a parent’s ID, as well as proof of the child’s birth and biometrics, all within 30 days, which is excluding people and violates the constitution, according to the legal challenge.Nearby Botswana is planning to launch a biometric ID card to facilitate travel across the border shared with Namibia, following an agreement between the neighbors. Zimbabwe is deploying biometric gates at its borders, meanwhile, to automate clearance processes.An announcement from Chengdu-based 3D facial recognition developer Wisesoft suggests that China’s tech sector is having some success in mitigating the effects of sanctions by making its own semiconductor chips. Even better for Wisesoft, the new supply of chips is faster and half the price of those made in places like the U.S. and Taiwan.Facewatch has committed to avoiding the use of Hikvision cameras in new installations of its retail facial recognition system, and says it has never used algorithms developed in China, following a furor raised by reports of the Chinese manufacturers devices in UK retailers. Tesco had already banned cameras from Hikvision and Dahua.Many of the most popular datasets used to train facial recognition algorithms are made up of images gathered without consent from the subjects, and often used in violation of the license they were collected under, according to a presentation by a privacy advocate and researcher.Worldcoin has launched a new protocol and SDK for developers to build applications for its credential, and the company’s World ID has been integrated with Discord for account access. Tools for Humanity’s Tiago Sada tells Biometric Update that World ID may soon use face biometrics for reauthentication, while iris is used for global deduplication.The EU has advanced to ‘trilogues’ which represent the final step before ratification of a trusted framework for digital identity. The negotiations between EU Parliament, Council and Commission will focus on privacy considerations and how accessible the digital wallet-based system will be for the elderly.Mastercard has received DIATF certification, setting it up as a UK digital identity provider for a range of applications. At the same time, a partnership in New South Wales will see Mastercard’s digital ID used to verify people purchasing alcohol online are of age.A trend towards requiring age verification for online interactions among many governments is examined in a guest post by Jumio CEO Robert Prigge. There are privacy challenges to be considered, Prigge writes, and responsibility ultimately needs to be shared between organizations and parents.The UK’s GDS handed out contracts totalling over $50 million recently, largely to support the development of its One Login access control system for public services. PA Consulting, Deloitte and Deloitte LLP, Kin and Carta Create, The Dextrous Web and Thoughtworks were awarded contracts.An OECD committee is seeking comment on a draft series of recommendations for governing digital ID as digital public infrastructure. SonicBee’s Henk Marsman helps guide Biometric Update readers through the seven sets of recommendations, which include guidance on accessibility, cross-border use, privacy, and interoperability.NIST has also invited input on its draft white paper encouraging the adoption of digital identities on people’s mobile devices. Best practices, standards and testing for mobile driver’s licenses are all part of the agency’s plan. New York is preparing to issues mDLs, continuing their slow march across the U.S.Someone appears to be using deceit, including a fake AI industry publication, to try to elicit information from a facial recognition provider about deposits at Silicon Valley Bank, as reported by IPVM. The suspicious website appears to have AI-generated content, and possibly staff. If you have any information on who is behind the misrepresentation, or organizations affected by SVBs collapse, for that matter, you know where to direct it.

Digital ID process questioned in Nepal, Kenya; Philippines issuance hits 60M-Mar 24, 2023, 5:36 pm EDT | Alessandro Mascellino

Dozens of Nepalese citizens have questioned the usefulness of the national digital ID card launched by the government in 2018. According to a recent article by the Kathmandu Post, the digital ID was created to replace several IDs and facilitate access to government services.However, the document has not yet, as had been expected, replaced the citizenship certificate, a document required for government jobs and other services. It is not accepted by the Department of Transport Management or Public Service Commission, either.The digital ID is only required when applying for a passport or taking a medical entrance exam.The Department of National ID and Civil Registration confirmed it had distributed 133,000 cards but more than 1.2 million cards have been printed. Biometrics of 11.4 million people across the country have also been collected.Insufficient funding has hampered distribution, said Krishna Paudel, a spokesperson for the department. That could change as the government prepares to make having the card mandatory.Implementing the digital ID infrastructure is expected to cost 20 billion Nepalese rupees (US$243 million). About Rs4 billion ($48.6 million) has been spent on distribution and storage of cards.Kenyan MP points to discrimination in ID issuance-Meanwhile, in Kenya, Marsabit Woman Representative Naomi Waqo has criticized local administrators for withholding identity cards in the border town of Moyale.According to reporting by KBC, Waqo said that 18-year-olds are being denied identity documents unless they pay bribes.PSA announces new PhilID milestones-The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) announced it has issued over 60 million PhilIDs and ePhilIDs, a new milestone in its implementation of PhilSys, the country’s ID system.“Reaching 60 million national IDs printed brings us closer to fully realizing the envisioned benefits of PhilSys,” comments PSA Undersecretary Dennis Mapa. “That’s why our coordination with government agencies such as the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) centers on using PhilSys to support the implementation of social protection programs.”The PSA also says password-protected ePhilIDs via mobile devices is now possible using an SMS code.Verification can be done by scanning the QR code of the PhilID or ePhilID through the identity authentication tool, PhilSys Check, Mapa adds.The milestones come weeks after PSA confirmed it had issued over 50 million physical and digital cards.The country’s national police (PNP) recently launched a digitized booking system for arrested individuals that requires the collection of their biometrics.

Thoughtful Biometrics: DNA, vendor-tactics, better signage and finding common ground-Mar 24, 2023, 2:43 pm EDT | Frank Hersey

Industry, government, and civil society member joined from around the world to have their say.“I’m super pleased at the diversity of perspectives we were able to bring together including having serious participation from government folks from the U.S. and Canada,” organizer Kaliya Young told Biometric Update.“There were folks from a range of different parts of NIST, OBIM and Canadian officials working on border modernization.”Event sponsors included Paravision, Simprints, and ID2020, and Veridium CTO Dr. John Callahan was among the organizers.Sessions covered areas as broad as how to secure DNA in biometric authentication, risks from using 2D barcodes for ID and how better signage is needed for indicating how, where, and why biometrics are being used in public.A group considered how private identity companies go about discussing their platforms and selling them to governments and whether or how others can attempt to intervene.One session in particular struck at the heart of the hoped outcome of the (un)conference, according to Young. The session titled “Stimulating a more nuanced discussion with policymakers and implementers” sought to help see sometimes opposing sides of biometric usage gain some common ground, particularly as technology may have evolved faster than ideas and understanding in some areas.Regulation was covered in multiple sessions – for digital identity as well as biometrics. Both can rely on an “authoritative source,” but what is that and when is it not as authoritative as one believes.Participants discussed practicalities such as how biometrics use should be announced and whether an individual can ever “regain control” once they have had their biometrics captured by their government.As more technologists devise ever further ways to track personal features and behavior, a session discussed what should actually be considered a biometric and how can the various behaviors and markers be regulated.Even more conceptual issues were tackled, still in a practical sense, such as the probabilistic nature of biometrics. Given the fact they can fail, how can this impact on user experience? How do systems allow for smooth use or access? A PDF book of proceedings based on the notes taken in the sessions will soon be published and made publicly available.

Nordsec, PayPal move forward with passkey and passwordless authentication products-Mar 24, 2023, 4:17 pm EDT | Jim Nash

Vendors, in this case Nordsec and PayPal, continue to throw rocks in the form of new software at the scourge of passwords. Whether they will move the needle in terms of obviating passwords is unknown.Nordsec has added its patented two-factor authentication software to its password manager NordPass. Putting the authenticator in NordPass eliminates the need for NordPass owners (corporate accounts only for now) to download an authenticator.Cutting this step, something that sometimes arises while someone is trying to order a product or access a service, is a notable step forward in the war to fight fraud without tripping the end user.Those end users are at least as likely to use NordPass’ authenticator as any other because it is coming from a company they already trust enough to use.That is good for Nordsec two similar ways. First, of course, it is a good bet that it will draw customers and increase their loyalty to NordPass.Second, it presumably adds value to its NordVPN service, which benefits whenever the company shows it is a coherent set of interoperable software designed to make life online safer and less effort. NordVPN is made by Nord Security, which is owned by Nordsec.It plans a new feature, due before 2024: passwordless sign-in to NordPass.It is patented, but the authenticator is not unique in how it works. NordPass creates one-time, timed passwords. Biometrics can be saved and used for accessing NordPass, too, according to technology trade publication TechRadar.There are a couple of passkey announcements, as well, one of which also involves Nordsec’s NordPass.The company is pushing a way to securely store and manage passkeys. Nordsec’s newest management software is called Passkeys, and is on the NordPass desktop app, web vault and Firefox and Chrome extensions.Those cryptographically pairs snatches of software are of interest to PayPal, too.Already integrated with iOS, PayPal has added passkey compatibility with Google Android 9+ on Android mobile web for faster sign-ins. PayPal is a founding member of the FIDO Alliance.

Tech5 launches umbrella brand for biometric products, comprehensive SDK-Mar 24, 2023, 2:15 pm EDT | Chris Burt

The branding for all Tech5 biometric products is being consolidated under the name ‘T5-OmniMatch,’ the company has announced.The new brand name encompasses Tech5’s biometric matching technologies and platforms for identification, verification, authentication and de-duplication use cases in the face, fingerprint and iris modalities. T5-OmniMatch is also designed to be extendable to other modalities, according to the announcement.The technology suite includes platforms, toolkits and SDKs running on servers and mobile devices.A new SDK encompassing Tech5’s three current biometric modalities is also being launched as part of the product integration. The T5-OmniMatch BioSDK includes Tech5’s high-ranking fingerprint and iris recognition algorithms. The new SDK can be used to implement all Tech5 biometric products, including its T5-IDencode credential issuing platform.“T5-OmniMatch is a combination of Tech5’s flagship platforms that have proven their efficiency and reliability in the market over the years,” says SVP Sales and Business Development Ameya Bhagwat. “The new functionality and improved technologies that T5-OmniMatch offers make it unique. We are proud to introduce it to the market and are excited to witness the experience of the first implementations in various countries that are currently ongoing.”“We believe that merging high-performance dedicated verification and identification functionalities into one main platform will allow for greater ease of integration, deployment, and maintenance for our partners and customers,” says Tech5 Co-founder and CTO, Rahul Parthe. “We also believe that this is the right move for Tech5 in terms of product development strategy.”Tech5’s contactless fingerprint technology was recently tested by BixeLab, in a sign of the modalities increasing maturity and shed light on the applications it is and is not currently ready for.

Incode deals expand presence in EMEA, New Zealand-Company suggests making Mexican fan app mandatory-Mar 24, 2023, 12:42 pm EDT | Chris Burt

Incode has announced a series of partnerships further expanding the reach of its biometrics and identity verification technologies geographically.Austria-based Advanced Living Technologies (ALTec) and sister company at-visions will use Incode’s omnichannel identity verification and biometric authentication for age verification, KYC compliance and reusable identity within the gaming and hospitality sectors. Incode’s liveness detection, automation and watchlist features made it stand out to ALTec, according to the announcement.ALTec provides an identity product called SONIO to the gaming industry, while at-vision supplies IP streaming technologies to the hospitality industry.“While we’re continuously reminded of both the risks associated with human-in-the-loop verification and how AI/ML helps reduce bias, inaccuracies, and inefficiencies, legacy providers are also challenged to move away from slow, physical commerce and shift to seamless, touchless transactions,” says Ricardo Amper, CEO and founder of Incode, in the announcement. “ALTec and at-visions share Incode’s commitment to One Identity Everywhere and this partnership of guest-facing technologies and unrivaled track record in identity systems with ongoing and rigorous certifications completely transforms the customer journey. The ability to offer our identity solutions to at-visions’ robust customer base will enable innovation in time-tested industries and, ultimately, a reimagining of the trust between hotel guests, gamers, and the organizations that serve them.”While this integration adds Incode customers in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region, the company has also formed a reseller agreement with Infolog to deliver its technology in New Zealand.The deal, reported by New Zealand Reseller News, will start by targeting the public sector, with a plan to begin selling to all customers in the months ahead.Incode launched in the ANZ region late last year.Fan ID showing potential in rookie season
It has also been a year since Incode’s Fan ID was launched to prevent a repeat of a violent riot by attendees of a Mexican pro soccer match. The app was first used at at the Clausura 2023 tournament, and in its first half-season being trialled, has shown enough promise that it should be made mandatory, the company says in a blog post.Fan ID is currently optional, with users taking a selfie for ID verification, and having their face biometrics matched on entry to the stadium.The use of facial recognition on security cameras in Mexican soccer stadiums was reduced following a decision last August.The app can help authorities hold violent fans to account, Incode argues, and potentially even support criminal prosecutions.

Nigeria’s Abuja, Lagos airports to pilot facial recognition from NEC to boost security-TSA head says US system opt-out is temporary-Mar 23, 2023, 6:19 pm EDT | Ayang Macdonald

The federal Ministry of Finance of Nigeria has disclosed that talks are underway for the conclusion of agreements with Japan which will enable the deployment of facial recognition technology by NEC Corporation at some of the country’s airports, starting with a pilot at those of Abuja and Lagos.At the end of talks which the Minister of State for Budget and National Planning Clem Agba had with the Turkish Ambassador to Nigeria Matsunaga Kazuyoshi and officials of NEC recently, the government official said deploying facial recognition in Nigeria’s airports will curb insecurity and other illegal activities, Punch reports.The project is expected to be financed with grants secured through the planned cooperation agreement. NEC will first deploy the system at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos and the Nnamdi Azikiwe Internal Airport in Abuja for a trial, before eventually expanding it to airports in the cities of Enugu, Kano and Port Harcourt.Agba called on the support and collaboration of shareholders for the project which he said started with consultations back in January in the Japanese capital Tokyo.He said he believes the system “would further strengthen the security of our people and the country as a whole” as “this project was conceived in view of several security concerns and the need to nip these growing concerns in the bud.”Before the project implementation begins, Agba said a site visit would be conducted by a joint team.The Japanese Ambassador is also quoted as hailing the project, saying it will go a long way in bolstering Nigeria’s airport architecture and encourage travel to and investment in the country.“We want to holistically support the Nigerian Government to improve security, social cohesion and promote better migration management through the use of technology and installation of CCTV cameras at strategic places,” said Kazuyohsi as reported by Punch.In the past, experts in the aviation industry in Nigeria have suggested the use of biometrics technology to improve security at the country’s airports.Biometrics boost airport security, will become mandatory, says TSA-In an airports security related story, the head of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) David Pekoske has underscored the use of facial recognition technology as one of the best ways of enhancing airport security and accelerating passenger checks at airports across the United States.Speaking at a panel which was themed on improving airport security, Pekoske said the federal agency’s advanced technology including biometrics enables the screening of around 2.4 million persons at airports in the U.S. daily, as reports The Dallas Morning News.The tech deployment, according to the TSA chief, means lesser need for deployment of personnel.For now, biometrics screening for passengers by the TSA is optional as they can out of any stage they are uncomfortable with. The official mentioned however that this will not be the case eventually.He added that their technology is being improved upon for greater efficiency.“We’re upgrading our camera systems all the time, upgrading our lighting systems, upgrading our algorithms, so that we are using the very most advanced algorithms and technology we possibly can. With the technology we’ve already deployed, we know we don’t have to increase the size of our workforce,” said Pekoske.

Zighra behavioral biometrics green-lit for sale directly to govt of Canada-Mar 23, 2023, 5:42 pm EDT | Larisa Redins

Authentication software maker Zighra has been qualified to directly sell digital identity security products to Canada via the Pathway to Commercialization Program.This will allow sales of up to $8 million per contract to all departments.Zighra also announced that it has completed an Innovative Solutions Canada (ISC) Testing Stream contract for continuous biometric authentication with the Royal Canadian Navy. A testing stream is a program in which products can be tested before purchase.The company’s technology aims to minimize the effect of adversary nation-states and associated groups that try to breach government cybersecurity. By using digital identity security measures, government personnel and contractors, can be better protected, Zighra says.With SilentEdge, its patented, FIDO-certified behavioral biometric software, the company says, it has secure passwordless access to digital and physical systems, enabling a zero-trust process.Through sensors, machine learning, continuous multi-factor authentication (CMFA) and dynamic, fine-grained identity, credential and access management (ICAM), Zighra says SilentEdge can replace legacy access cards, one-time passcodes and conventional MFA.Microsoft reports that the percentage of government organizations targeted by Russian threat actors, went from approximately 3 percent in 2020 to 53 percent in 2021.

Three in five organizations will soon use biometrics, but perception problems persist-HID Global reports on state of security and identity-Mar 23, 2023, 3:37 pm EDT | Chris Burt

Biometrics and digital identity for cloud-based access management are joining the mainstream as a way to secure hybrid workplaces, a report from HID Global indicates.The 30-page ‘2023 State of Security and Identity’ report identifies five trends shaping security and identity this year, from supply chain issues, to increased focus on sustainability, and the relationship between hybrid work and cloud-based access management. Ever-faster adoption of digital ID and contactless biometrics are the other two.HID polled more than 2,700 people, just over half of them partners and the rest end-users of the company’s technology, with organizations of various sizes from small businesses to large enterprises, to inform the report.Company executives discussed the findings in a webinar this week.Four in five are still working in a hybrid model, and two-thirds of those surveyed say MFA or passwordless authentication is the most important technology for the transition that marks the future of work. This change is driving cloud-based access management into the mainstream, HID says.HID found that 43 percent of government agencies are planning to use IDaaS in the near future.A solid majority (59 percent) of organizations plan to use, or at least test biometrics in the next five years. The others are more likely smaller organizations, explains Lena Abdelahad VP of HID’s IAM authentication business.Abdelahad notes that FIDO growth is helping push MFA and passwordless adoption, and layering in behavioral biometrics to increase security is a growth area for the industry.Asked by Biometric Update about the understanding organizations have of how to utilize newer technologies with more complex architecture, Abdelahad says most businesses are not used to thinking in terms of technology layers.“I do see us having to come and serve as a trusted advisor to help organizations navigate those complexities or misperceived complexities around, let’s say, the regulations, or the deployment, or the use cases,” she says.Asked if there is a skills gap holding back adoption, Abdelahad emphasized the need “dislodge some of those misperceptions to really help them get to their business goals and their security goals.”The availability of mobile devices and sustainability goals are each driving adoption of mobile authentication, according to Sanjit Bardhan, head of the global mobile business for HID’s physical access control solutions.

Face Forensics adapts biometric software for disaster victim identification-Mar 23, 2023, 2:25 pm EDT | Chris Burt

Face Forensics has responded to a request from an international agency by developing a Disaster Victim Identification suite based on its biometric corpse and tattoo recognition technologies.The new f2 software is specifically designed to help identify deceased people by matching their faces, even if their eyes are closed and they have suffered damage or other are obscured by other markings like tattoos.The international agency requesting the update is attempting to identify people who have died crossing the Mediterranean Sea to reach Europe.The company also launched a system for investigating human trafficking and child abuse last year, with CEO Ian Drummond saying at the time that f2 had worked with Red Cross International on identifying migrants.Facial recognition is traditionally very dependent on information from the subject’s open eyes, due to the sharp edges and high contrast of their features, f2 says. The company developed technology to work around this limitation by providing an ability to crop part of the face image and place it over a generic face biometric template, the announcement explains.The system works by ingesting several photos of the subject’s face, cropping them if necessary, automatically encoding them and then comparing them to templates in the database. The top matches are then displayed for visual confirmation by investigators.Multiple filters are provided to narrow down possible matches.The database is built by automatically enrolling images from external databases, and importing images provided by relatives.Face Forensics is making its Disaster Victim Identification suite available as an application, a .NET SDK, and a web service.

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.

North Korea claims to test underwater nuke drone that causes ‘radioactive tsunami’ Analysts say Pyongyang’s claim of new weapons system isn’t the same as a credible demonstration of capability, could be ‘an attempt at deception’By KANG Jin-kyu and Claire Lee-24 March 2023, 10:41 pm

SEOUL, South Korea (AFP) — North Korea claimed Friday it had tested an underwater nuclear attack drone able to unleash a “radioactive tsunami,” as it blamed recent US-South Korea exercises for a deteriorating regional security situation.Pyongyang carried out military drills of its own in response this week, the official Korean Central News Agency said, including test-firing a new nuclear-capable underwater drone.The weapon’s mission is to “stealthily infiltrate into operational waters and make a super-scale radioactive tsunami… to destroy naval striker groups and major operational ports of the enemy,” it said.The new weapon, called Haeil which means tsunami in Korean, “can be deployed at any coast and port or towed by a surface ship for operation,” the report said.North Korean leader Kim Jong Un personally oversaw the tests, KCNA reported, and images released by Pyongyang’s Rodong Sinmun newspaper showed a smiling Kim and what appeared to be an underwater explosion.The agency also said Pyongyang had fired strategic cruise missiles “tipped with a test warhead simulating a nuclear warhead” on Wednesday.But analysts questioned North Korea’s claims.The idea that Pyongyang has “a nuclear-capable underwater drone should be met with skepticism,” said Leif-Eric Easley, a professor at Ewha University in Seoul.“Pyongyang’s claims about a new weapons system are not the same as a credible demonstration of capability,” he added.In a Twitter post, US-based analyst Ankit Panda said it could not be ruled out that the announcement was “an attempt at deception/psyop.”Even so, the claim was “shocking,” Cheong Seong-chang of the private Sejong Institute told AFP.If true, it is hard to see how Seoul “could respond to such a formidable new weapon from North Korea that [it says] can completely destroy the South’s major operational ports.”The KCNA statement also indicates “Pyongyang is more than ready to use its tactical nuclear weapons at any time,” An Chan-il, a defector-turned-researcher, told AFP.“This obviously further strengthens Kim’s justification for his future nuclear tests.”Nuclear power? Russia has also reportedly developed a similar weapon — nuclear-capable Poseidon torpedoes — but mastering the complex technology required for such weaponry might yet be beyond North Korea, experts said.“For an unmanned submarine to go deep underwater undetected, it requires advanced technology such as control sensors and radar,” Choi Gi-il, professor of military studies at Sangji University told AFP.North Korea has not acquired this “to an extent that it can deploy nuclear unmanned sea drones in combat yet,” but its claims about the Haeil drone fit a broader pattern, Choi said.Pyongyang has moved on from simply stockpiling nuclear warheads and is “attempting to further advance and diversify launch mediums,” he said, adding that further testing could yet give Pyongyang “formidable” new ways to deliver a nuclear payload.After a record-breaking year of weapons tests and growing nuclear threats from Pyongyang in 2022, Seoul and Washington have ramped up security cooperation.On Thursday, the two allies completed their largest joint military drills in five years.Pyongyang views all such exercises as rehearsals for invasion and on Friday claimed the recent exercises, dubbed Freedom Shield, were a drill for “occupying” North Korea.Pyongyang’s “underwater nuclear attack drone” drill was staged “to alert the enemy to an actual nuclear crisis,” KCNA said.North Korea last year declared itself an “irreversible” nuclear power and Kim recently called for an “exponential” increase in weapons production, including tactical nuclear weapons.KCNA’s Friday statement comes about a week after Pyongyang test-fired its largest and most powerful missile, a Hwasong-17 — its second ICBM launch this year.

Putin Says Russia Will Station Tactical Nukes in Belarus-26 Mar 2023Associated Press

MOSCOW (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin announced plans on Saturday to station tactical nuclear weapons in neighboring Belarus, a warning to the West as it steps up military support for Ukraine.Putin said the move was triggered by Britain’s decision this past week to provide Ukraine with armor-piercing rounds containing depleted uranium.Tactical nuclear weapons are intended for use on the battlefield and have a short range and a low yield compared with much more powerful nuclear warheads fitted to long-range missiles. Russia plans to maintain control over those it sends to Belarus, and construction of storage facilities for them will be completed by July 1, Putin said.He didn’t say how many nuclear weapons Russia would keep in Belarus. The U.S. government believes Russia has about 2,000 tactical nuclear weapons, which include bombs that can be carried by tactical aircraft, warheads for short-range missiles and artillery rounds.Putin argued that by deploying its tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus, Russia was following the lead of the United States, noting that the U.S. has nuclear weapons based in Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Turkey.“We are doing what they have been doing for decades, stationing them in certain allied countries, preparing the launch platforms and training their crews,” Putin said, speaking in an interview on state television that aired Saturday night. “We are going to do the same thing.”Russia has stored its tactical nuclear weapons at dedicated depots on its territory, and moving part of the arsenal to a storage facility in Belarus would up the ante in the Ukrainian conflict by placing them closer to the Russian aircraft and missiles already stationed there.Some hawkish commentators in Russia long have urged the Kremlin to put the tactical nuclear weapons close to the weapons to send a signal to the West about the readiness to use them.The U.S. said it would “monitor the implications” of Putin's announcement.“We have not seen any reason to adjust our own strategic nuclear posture nor any indications Russia is preparing to use a nuclear weapon,” National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said. "We remain committed to the collective defense of the NATO alliance.”Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine had Soviet nuclear weapons stationed on their territory but handed them over to Russia after the 1991 collapse of the Soviet Union.Putin said Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has long asked to have nuclear weapons in his country again as a counter to NATO. Belarus shares borders with three NATO members — Latvia, Lithuania and Poland — and Russia used its territory as a staging ground to send troops into neighboring Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022.Putin noted that Russia helped modernize Belarusian military aircraft last year to make them capable of carrying nuclear warheads. He said 10 such planes were ready to go. He said nuclear weapons also could be launched by the Iskander short-range missiles that Russia provided to Belarus last year.Belarusian opposition leader Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, who is living in exile, said the agreement to transfer the tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus “underlines the threat to regional security” from Lukashenko's regime.“Europe won’t be safe until Belarus dictator is removed & brought before tribunal to face justice for crimes against our country & Ukraine," Tsikhanouskaya wrote in English on Twitter.Lukashenko’s support of the war has drawn international criticism and sanctions. But he has publicly stood by Russia, which has pumped billions of dollars into shoring up his Soviet-style, state-controlled economy with cheap energy and loans.Putin had initially objected to the depleted uranium rounds that Britain promised to ship to Ukraine by making the false claim that they have nuclear components.He subsequently toned down his language, but insisted Saturday that the ammunition posed an additional danger to both troops and civilians in Ukraine by leaving a radioactive trace and contaminating agricultural land.“Those weapons are harmful not just for combatants, but also for the people living in those territories and for the environment,” he said.Putin added that Russia has vast stockpiles of similar ammunition but so far has refrained from using it.Depleted uranium is a byproduct of the uranium enrichment process needed to create nuclear weapons. The rounds can't generate a nuclear reaction but they do emit low levels of radiation. The U.N. nuclear watchdog has warned of the possible dangers of exposure.Such rounds were developed by the U.S. during the Cold War to destroy Soviet tanks, including the same T-72 tanks that Ukraine now faces in its push to break through a stalemate in the east.

US army chief: Iran could produce enough material for nuclear weapon within 2 weeks-Milley says Tehran would still require several more months to assemble weapon for use, states US military has developed ‘multiple options’ for leadership to consider if needed-By ToI Staff-24 March 2023, 7:34 pm

Iran could produce enough fissile material for a nuclear weapon within two weeks and would only need several additional months to assemble the weapon for use, US Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Mark Milley said Thursday.Milley shared the updated US assessment in testimony before the House Appropriations Committee in a hearing on the Defense Department’s annual budget request.“But the United States remains committed, as a matter of policy, that Iran will not have a fielded nuclear weapon,” he added, noting that the US military has “developed multiple options for our national leadership to consider if or when Iran ever decides to develop an actual nuclear weapon.”While the Biden administration has largely refrained from publicly discussing the military option, the president has stated that it remains on the table if diplomatic efforts to prevent Tehran from acquiring a nuclear weapon fail.Milley’s remarks built on testimony given last month by US Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Colin Kahl who also said Iran could produce enough fissile material for one nuclear bomb in under two weeks.Kahl said at a House of Representatives hearing that Iran’s nuclear program had significantly progressed since the Trump administration withdrew from the Iranian nuclear deal in 2018.He was asked why the Biden administration has attempted to revive the agreement formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of action (JCPOA).“Because Iran’s nuclear progress since we left the JCPOA has been remarkable. Back in 2018, when the previous administration decided to leave the JCPOA, it would have taken Iran about 12 months to produce one bomb’s worth of fissile material. Now it would take about 12 days,” Kahl said.“So I think there is still the view that if you could resolve this issue diplomatically and put constraints back on their nuclear program, it is better than the other options. But right now, the JCPOA is on ice,” Kahl said.US officials previously estimated Iran’s so-called breakout time to amass material for a weapon as weeks. The US also believes Iran does not yet have all of the technology required to build a bomb and has not made a final decision to build a weapon.Talks to reinstate the nuclear deal between Iran and world powers restarted in April 2021 but have been stalled since last year as Iran forges ahead with its nuclear ambitions.Inspectors from the United Nations nuclear watchdog have found uranium particles enriched up to 83.7 percent in Iran’s underground Fordo nuclear site, the UN’s nuclear watchdog revealed earlier this month.The confidential quarterly report by the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) distributed to member states has raised tensions further between Iran and the West over Iran’s program, even as Tehran already faces internal unrest after months of protests and Western anger over sending bomb-carrying drones to Russia for its war on Ukraine.The IAEA report only speaks about “particles,” suggesting that Iran isn’t building a stockpile of uranium enriched above 60% — the level it has been enriching at for some time, which nonproliferation experts already say has no civilian use for Tehran.Uranium at nearly 84% is almost at weapons-grade levels of 90% — meaning any stockpile of that material could be quickly enriched for the purposes of building an atomic bomb if Iran chooses.Earlier this week, the Axios news site reported that Israel has told the US and several European countries that an Iranian decision to enrich uranium above the 60% level could trigger an IDF strike.An Israeli official told Axios that Israel doesn’t consider the small amounts enriched at 84% purity to be particularly significant because Iran didn’t amass any of the material at that level.Despite the warning, Israel has avoided laying out a “red line,” regarding when it will act, as Netanyahu did during the Obama administration.The Israeli official told Axios that Israel was avoiding declaring that its “red line” is 90% purity because it fears that might give Iran the legitimacy to continue enriching up to that level.The US intelligence community continues to maintain its assessment that Iran isn’t pursuing an atomic bomb.“To the best of our knowledge, we don’t believe that the supreme leader in Iran has yet made a decision to resume the weaponization program that we judge they suspended or stopped at the end of 2003,” CIA Director Williams Burns told CBS’s “Face the Nation” program last month. “But the other two legs of the stool, meaning enrichment programs, they’ve obviously advanced very far.”Fordo, which sits under a mountain near the holy Shiite city of Qom, some 90 kilometers (55 miles) southwest of Tehran, remains a special concern for the international community. It is about the size of a football field, large enough to house 3,000 centrifuges, but small and hardened enough to lead US officials to suspect it had a military purpose when they exposed the site publicly in 2009.Any explanation from Iran, however, likely won’t be enough to satisfy Israel.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has threatened military actions against Tehran, and Israel and Iran have been engaged in a high-stakes shadow war across the wider Middle East since the nuclear deal’s collapse.

UK says Russia ‘largely stalled’ in Bakhmut, shifting focus-British military intelligence assesses ‘extreme attrition’ of Russian forces in city responsible for Moscow’s shift to defensive posture-By AP-25 March 2023, 9:41 pm

KYIV, Ukraine — The top commander of Ukraine’s military said Saturday that his forces were pushing back against Russian troops in the long and grinding battle for the town of Bakhmut, and British military intelligence says Russia appears to be moving to a defensive strategy in eastern Ukraine.“The Bakhmut direction is the most difficult. Thanks to the titanic efforts of the defense forces, the situation is being stabilized,” General Valerii Zaluzhnyi said in a post on Telegram giving a synopsis of a telephone call with Admiral Sir Tony Radakin, Britain’s chief of defense staff.The seven-month fight for Bakhmut, where Russian forces have closed in on three sides, is the longest battle of the war, with Russia deploying both regular soldiers and fighters of the mercenary Wagner Group.Russian forces must go through Bakhmut to push deeper into parts of the eastern Donbas region, though Western officials say the capture of the city would have a limited impact on the course of the war.Britain’s Defense Ministry said in its latest intelligence update that “Russia’s assault on the Donbas town of Bakhmut has largely stalled. This is likely primarily a result of extreme attrition of the Russian force.”Russia is likely shifting its focus toward two other sectors, which “suggests an overall return to a more defensive operational design after inconclusive results from its attempts to conduct a general offensive since January,” the UK ministry wrote on Twitter.However, the Ukrainian military cautioned that a change in strategy was not yet clear and that Bakhmut remained Russia’s main point of attack for now. A spokesman for Ukraine’s eastern forces, Serhii Cherevaty, said the Russian forces were still hitting the town with artillery and airstrikes, although the number of daily clashes had dropped to fewer than 20, down from 30 to 50 not long ago.“The coming week will tell,” Cherevaty said on Ukrainian television.Pavlo Kyrylenko, the governor of Donetsk province, where Bakhmut is located, said one civilian was killed in the fighting on Friday and another civilian was killed elsewhere in the province. Russian rockets hit the town of Kramatorsk during the night, but caused no injuries, Kyrylenko said.On Saturday, Russian artillery struck Chasiv Yar, a city west of Bakhmut, and Toretsk to the south, killing two civilians, the Ukrainian presidential office said.Two people were killed and six injured in Russian firing on the southern Kherson region, the local administration said.

Iran-backed fighters on alert in eastern Syria after US retaliates for deadly attack-Tehran warns any further American airstrikes on Iranian bases in the country ‘will immediately face an answer’ By Bassem Mroue-25 March 2023, 4:50 pmUpdated at 6:17 pm

BEIRUT (AP) — Iran-backed fighters were on alert in eastern Syria on Saturday, a day after US forces launched retaliatory airstrikes on sites in the war-torn country, opposition activists said. The airstrikes came after a suspected Iran-made drone killed a US contractor and wounded six other Americans on Thursday.The situation was calm following a day in which rockets were fired at bases housing US troops in eastern Syria. The rockets came after US airstrikes on three different areas in Syria’s eastern province of Deir el-Zour, which borders Iraq, opposition activists said.While it’s not the first time the US and Iran have traded strikes in Syria, the attack and the US response threaten to upend recent efforts to deescalate tensions across the wider Middle East, whose rival powers have made steps toward détente in recent days after years of turmoil.“The calm continues as Iran-backed militiamen are on alert out of concern of possible new airstrikes,” said Rami Abdurrahman, who heads the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor.US President Joe Biden said Friday that the US would respond “forcefully” to protect its personnel after American forces retaliated with airstrikes on sites in Syria used by groups affiliated with Iran’s Revolutionary Guard. The strikes followed an attack Thursday by a suspected Iran-made drone that killed a US contractor and wounded five American servicemembers and a US contractor.“The United States does not, does not seek conflict with Iran,” Biden said in Ottawa, Canada, where he was on a state visit. But he said Iran and its proxies should be prepared for the US “to act forcefully to protect our people. That’s exactly what happened last night.” Activists said the US bombing killed at least four people.In Iran, domestic media outlets quoted a spokesman for the nation’s Supreme National Security Council, Keivan Khosravi, as saying that Tehran would immediately respond to any US attack on Iranian bases in Syria.“Any excuses-seeking attitude for attack on bases that are established at the request of the Syrian government, will immediately face an answer,” Khosravi was quoted as saying. Khosravi rejected US charges that Iran is behind attacks on American bases in Syria, suggesting they are attacks against “illegal occupation of part of Syria.”A statement issued late Friday by the Iranian Consultative Center in Syria warned the US not to carry out further strikes in Syria. Otherwise, “we will have to retaliate.” It warned that “it will not be a simple revenge.”The center, which speaks on behalf of Tehran in Syria, said the US airstrikes targeted places used to store food products and other service centers in Deir el-Zour. It said the strike killed seven people and wounded seven others without giving the nationalities of the dead. An official with an Iran-backed group in Iraq said the strikes killed seven Iranians.The Observatory raised the death toll from the US strikes to 19, saying they were killed in three locations, including an arms depot in the Harabesh neighborhood in the city of Deir el-Zour, and two military posts near the towns of Mayadeen and Boukamal.Iran-backed militia groups and Syrian forces control the area, which also has seen suspected airstrikes by Israel in recent months allegedly targeting Iranian supply routes.According to US officials, two simultaneous attacks were launched at US forces in Syria late Friday. Officials said that based on preliminary information, there was a rocket attack on the Conoco plant, where US troops are stationed, and one US service member was wounded but is in stable condition. At about the same time, several drones were launched at Green Village, in Deir el-Zour province where US troops are also based. One official said all but one of the drones were shot down, and there were no US injuries there. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss military operations.Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, which answers only to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has been suspected of carrying out attacks with bomb-carrying drones across the wider Middle East.US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said the American intelligence community had determined the drone in Thursday’s attack was of Iranian origin, but offered no other immediate evidence to support the claim. The drone hit a coalition base in the northeast Syrian city of Hasakeh.Iran relies on a network of proxy forces throughout the Mideast to counter the US and Israel, its arch regional enemy. The US has had forces in northeast Syria since 2015, when they deployed as part of the fight against the Islamic State group, and maintains some 900 troops there, working with Kurdish-led forces that control around a third of Syria.The exchange of strikes came as Saudi Arabia and Iran have been working toward reopening embassies in each other’s countries. The kingdom also acknowledged efforts to reopen a Saudi embassy in Syria, whose embattled President Bashar Assad has been backed by Iran in his country’s long war. According to officials, Iran has launched 80 attacks against US forces and locations in Iraq and Syria since January 2021. The vast majority of those have been in Syria.The US under Biden has struck Syria previously over tensions with Iran — in February and June of 2021, as well as August 2022.Syria’s conflict that began in 2011 has left nearly half a million people dead.

US carries out airstrikes on Iran-linked groups in Syria after attack on base-Biden says Washington does not seek conflict with Iran but will ‘forcefully’ protect personnel in Syria-By Layal Abou Rahal-25 March 2023, 6:49 am

OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) — US resident Joe Biden said Friday that the US would respond “forcefully” to protect its personnel after US forces retaliated with airstrikes on sites in Syria used by groups affiliated with Iran’s Revolutionary Guard following a suspected Iranian-linked attack Thursday that killed a US contractor and wounded seven other Americans in northeast Syria.“The United States does not… seek conflict with Iran,” Biden said in Ottawa, Canada, where he is on a state visit. But he said Iran and its proxies should be prepared for the US “to act forcefully to protect our people. That’s exactly what happened last night.” Activists said the US bombing killed at least four people.While it’s not the first time the US and Iran have traded strikes in Syria, the attacks and the US response threaten to upend recent efforts to deescalate tensions across the wider Middle East, whose rival powers have made steps toward détente in recent days after years of turmoil.The Pentagon said a drone attack on a US base Thursday killed a contractor and injured five US troops and another contractor. That was followed by two simultaneous attacks on US forces in Syria Friday, according to US officials.The officials said that based on preliminary information, there was a rocket attack Friday at a Conoco plant, and one US service member was injured but is in stable condition. At about the same time, several drones were launched at Green Village, where US troops are also based. One official said all but one of the drones were shot down, and there were no US injuries there. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss military operations.Two Syrian opposition activist groups reported a new wave of airstrikes on eastern Syria that hit positions of Iran-backed militias after rockets were fired at a Conoco gas plant that has a base housing American troops. Several US officials, however, said the US did not launch any attacks late Friday, and it wasn’t clear if the activists were referring to the attack on US forces at Green Village.US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said the American intelligence community had determined the drone in Thursday’s attack was of Iranian origin. US officials said that conclusion was based on recovered debris and intelligence threat streams. They offered no immediate evidence to support the claim. The drone hit a maintenance facility at a coalition base in the northeast Syrian city of Hasaka.In retaliation, the Pentagon said F-15 fighter jets flying out of al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar struck several locations around Deir el-Zour. Those strikes, said Austin, were a response to the drone attack “as well as a series of recent attacks against coalition forces in Syria” by groups affiliated with the Revolutionary Guard.Biden, speaking during a press conference with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, expressed his “deepest condolences” to the family of the American killed and well-wishes for the injured.Iran relies on a network of proxy forces through the Mideast to counter the US and Israel, its regional enemy. The US has had forces in northeast Syria since 2015, when they deployed as part of the fight against the Islamic State group, and maintains some 900 troops there, working with Kurdish-led forces that control around a third of Syria.Overnight, videos on social media purported to show explosions in Deir el-Zour, a strategic province that borders Iraq and contains oil fields. Iranian-backed militia groups and Syrian forces control the area, which also has seen suspected airstrikes by Israel in recent months allegedly targeting Iranian supply routes.Reports on the number of killed and wounded in the US strikes varied. Activist group Deir Ezzor 24, which covers news in the province, said four people were killed and a number of others were wounded. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor, said 11 Iranian-backed fighters were killed — including six at an arms depot in the Harabesh neighborhood in the city of Deir el-Zour and five at military posts near the towns of Mayadeen and Boukamal.Rami Abdurrahman, who heads the Observatory, said three rockets were fired earlier Friday at the al-Omar oil field in Deir el-Zour that houses US troops, an apparent retaliation to the American strikes.The Associated Press could not immediately independently confirm the activist reports. Iran and Syria did not immediately acknowledge the strikes, and their officials at the United Nations in New York did not respond to requests for comment from the AP.Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, which answers only to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has been suspected of carrying out attacks with bomb-carrying drones across the wider Middle East.The exchange of strikes came as Saudi Arabia and Iran have been working toward reopening embassies in each other’s countries. The kingdom also acknowledged efforts to reopen a Saudi embassy in Syria, whose embattled President Bashar Assad has been backed by Iran in his country’s long war.US Army Gen. Erik Kurilla, the top US commander for the Middle East, warned that its forces could carry out additional strikes if needed. “We are postured for scalable options in the face of any additional Iranian attacks,” Kurilla said in a statement.On Thursday, Kurilla warned Congress during a hearing that the “Iran of today is exponentially more militarily capable than it was even five years ago.” He pointed to Iran’s arsenal of ballistic missiles and bomb-carrying drones.“What Iran does to hide its hand is they use Iranian proxies,” Kurilla said.According to officials, Iran has launched 80 attacks against US forces and locations in Iraq and Syria since January 2021. The vast majority of those have been in Syria.Diplomacy to deescalate the exchange appeared to begin immediately. The foreign minister of Qatar spoke by phone with US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan as well as Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian, the Qatari state news agency reported. Doha has been an interlocutor between Iran and the US recently amid tensions over Tehran’s nuclear program.The US under Biden has struck Syria previously over tensions with Iran — in February and June of 2021, as well as August 2022.Dareen Khalifa, a senior Syria analyst with the Brussels-based International Crisis Group, said that while Thursday’s exchange of strikes comes at a sensitive political moment due to the “overall deterioration of US-Iran relations and the stalling of the nuclear talks,” she does not expect a significant escalation.“These tit-for-tat strikes have been ongoing for a long time,” Khalifa said, although she noted that they usually do not result in casualties.Since the US drone strike that killed Revolutionary Guard Gen. Qassem Soleimani in 2020, Iran has sought “to make life difficult for US forces stationed east of the Euphrates,” said Hamidreza Azizi, an expert with the German Institute for International and Security Affairs.“Iran increased its support for local proxies in Deir el-Zour while trying to ally with the tribal forces in the area,” Azizi wrote in a recent analysis.The strikes come during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.Syria’s war began with the 2011 Arab Spring protests that roiled the wider Middle East and toppled governments in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia and Yemen. It later morphed into a regional proxy conflict that has seen Russia and Iran back Assad. The United Nations estimates over 300,000 civilians have been killed in the war. Those figures do not include soldiers and insurgents killed in the conflict; their numbers are believed to be in the tens of thousands.

Analysis-‘Sea change’: Disruptive Saudi prince shows new pragmatism with Iran-Some analysts believe deal with Tehran signals maturation and realism in Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s regional approach-By Robbie COREY-BOULET and Haitham el-Tabei-25 March 2023, 5:41 am

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AFP) — Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman once compared Iran’s supreme leader to Hitler, but has now green-lit a reconciliation deal intended to usher in a new era of regional prosperity.As a 29-year-old defense minister, he launched a ferocious assault on Houthi rebels in neighboring Yemen, but is now pursuing back-channel talks that could ultimately remove Saudi forces from the conflict.He has also worked to mend bitter rifts with regional rivals like Qatar and Turkey, and even offered up the Gulf kingdom as a possible mediator for the war in Ukraine.Analysts say it points to an evolution of Prince Mohammed, now 37, from erratic disruptor to pragmatic power player.The deal with Iran in particular “marks a sea change in his political approach,” signaling “maturity and a more realistic understanding of regional power politics,” said Umar Karim, an expert on Saudi foreign policy at the University of Birmingham.Yet it’s too soon to know whether such de-escalatory measures will succeed — and how far they will go.The Iran deal still needs to be implemented, with embassies due to reopen by the second week of May after seven years of severed bilateral ties.Saudi Arabia and Syria are also in talks on resuming consular services, state media in the kingdom said Thursday, more than a decade after the Gulf kingdom cut ties with President Bashar Assad’s regime.Riyadh had long openly championed Assad’s ouster.Regardless of what happens next, Riyadh’s agenda is clear: minimizing turbulence abroad to keep the focus on a raft of economic and social reforms at home.“Our vision is a prosperous Middle East,” one Saudi official said, “because without your region developing with you, there are limits to what you can achieve.”It was domestic reforms that initially helped burnish Prince Mohammed’s reputation on the world stage.On his watch, the formerly closed-off kingdom sidelined the notorious religious police, allowed women to drive, opened cinemas and started granting tourist visas.Its deep-pocketed sovereign wealth fund inked a series of high-profile investments in everything from Newcastle United to Nintendo, hinting at how his “Vision 2030” reform agenda might transition the world’s largest crude exporter away from fossil fuels.Hanging over all this were concerns about ramped-up repression, especially following the 2018 killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in the kingdom’s Istanbul consulate.But Saudi officials also recognised how security threats, especially from Iran, endangered Prince Mohammed’s big plans.This point was driven home with attacks in 2019, claimed by the Iran-backed Huthis, on Saudi oil facilities that temporarily halved crude output.Riyadh and Washington charged that Tehran was behind the operation, which the Iranians denied.The incident was a game-changer, spurring Saudi Arabia to pursue a more conciliatory path, analysts and diplomats say.Saudi officials were deeply disappointed by the tepid response of then-US president Donald Trump’s administration, which they believed undermined the oil-for-security trade-off that has underpinned the two countries’ partnership for decades.“The Saudis were shocked that the Americans did nothing to protect them,” said an Arab diplomat based in Riyadh.“Saudi officials told us, ‘We need to focus on the megaprojects,'” the diplomat added, citing a futuristic megacity known as NEOM and a budding arts hub in the northern city of AlUla.“If one missile hits NEOM or AlUla, there will be no investment or tourism. The vision will collapse.”In making up with Iran, Prince Mohammed has not gone it alone.Neighboring Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates restored full diplomatic ties with the Islamic Republic last year.But the Saudi-Iranian deal is seen as more significant because the two Middle East heavyweights have often found themselves on opposite sides of conflicts — not just in Yemen but also in places including Lebanon and Iraq.“The kingdom is pursuing a calibrated geopolitic reset that attempts to holistically improve the broader regional security environment,” said Ayham Kamel of Eurasia Group.Anna Jacobs of the International Crisis Group added: “Lowering the temperature with Iran is a smart way to lower tensions across the region and mitigate some of the proxy battles surrounding Saudi Arabia.”The next step for implementing the deal is a meeting between the two countries’ foreign ministers, though it has not yet been scheduled.Earlier this week, an Iranian official said Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi had favorably received an invitation to visit Saudi Arabia from King Salman, Prince Mohammed’s father, though Riyadh has yet to confirm.These expected encounters will be closely watched as worries persist that the rapprochement remains fragile.“Mistrust is deep between Saudi Arabia and Iran,” Jacobs said, “and both sides will need to see positive signals from the other very soon to proceed with the deal.”

Netanyahu: If calls spread for refusal to serve, State of Israel in ‘terrible danger’ In London briefing following meeting with Sunak, PM says Memorial Day would be used for political ends ‘even if I would halt the legislation’By Amy Spiro-24 March 2023, 6:26 pm

LONDON — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that calls for refusal to serve in the IDF are a grave danger to the future of the State of Israel, and could spread beyond those who oppose the government’s judicial overhaul.“Surrendering to [IDF] refusal is a terrible danger to the State of Israel,” Netanyahu said in a briefing to reporters following his meeting with UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in London. “It won’t stop with just one side, it will move from side to side.”The prime minister said he has heard from those who support the government’s plans who say they could also refuse to serve in the military if the legislation is not passed.“You need to understand what is happening on the other side. People say that if it’s like this because of the threat of IDF refusal, why just on one side?” Netanyahu said. “They say: ‘We will not send our children either.”Netanyahu said he expects the security establishment to adopt a “firm stand against” the phenomenon, which has been growing in recent weeks among those who stand firmly opposed to the government’s plans to radically shake up the judiciary, including giving the coalition widespread control over the appointment of Israel’s judges. Many groups of elite IDF reservists from all branches of the military have declared that they will not continue to serve if the government’s program is enacted.“The country cannot exist without the IDF. There will not be a nation, it’s very simple,” Netanyahu said Friday. “All red lines have been crossed. People who were responsible for the security of the country suddenly adopted this cynicism.”On Friday, 200 reservist pilots and 100 doctors who serve in the military reserves said they will halt service due to the legislative push, as opposition to the government’s efforts in the army’s ranks continued to spread.After the meeting between Netanyahu and Sunak Friday morning, Israel and the UK both issued statements about the sit-down, although only the British one mentioned the judicial overhaul. Sunak’s statement said he had stressed to Netanyahu “the importance of upholding the democratic values that underpin our relationship, including in the proposed judicial reforms in Israel.”A senior Israeli official who was present during the meeting said that the issue of the judicial overhaul was discussed for less than a minute toward the end of the Sunak-Netanyahu meeting.Netanyahu also spoke out Friday against concerns that the intense protests and divides could color Israel’s national Memorial Day next month.The prime minister said that “even if I would halt the legislation, it wouldn’t help” to keep Memorial Day apolitical, “because whoever wants to make a provocation on Memorial Day will do it.”Netanyahu said that he spoke out strongly against any attempts to use Memorial Day to political ends while he led a strong opposition campaign against the Oslo Accords in the 1990s.“People would tell me that I was disrespecting Yoni,” said Netanyahu, referring to his late brother, Yoni Netanyahu, who was killed during the IDF raid on Entebbe in 1976. “It is forbidden to say that!”Netanyahu’s convoy was greeted Friday morning in London by several hundred Israeli and Jewish protesters chanting against the prime minister and his government’s controversial judicial overhaul. In an unusual move, he and Sunak did not make any public comments or hold a press conference, rather only released readouts of their meeting, which lasted about an hour.Sunak has faced pressure in recent days to publicly comment on Israel’s highly contentious judicial shakeup, leading to speculation that he chose to forgo any public comments with Netanyahu in order to avoid taking a stance.During Netanyahu’s visit to Berlin last week, he and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz publicly sparred during a press conference over the government’s continued push for legislation that will greatly expand political control over Israel’s High Court.Netanyahu said Friday he invited Sunak to visit Israel in the near future. According to the British readout, Sunak said he “looked forward to visiting Israel at the earliest opportunity.”Netanyahu was slated to meet later Friday with UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman, also without any public statements or press conference. His only other scheduled meeting during his trip — which is slated to last until early Sunday morning — is with the Conservative Friends of Israel.As it stands, the legislative package will — among other things — allow the Knesset to override court decisions with the barest majority, preemptively shield laws from judicial oversight, and put the selection of judges in the hands of coalition politicians. Netanyahu said Thursday night that the law on selecting judges would be enacted next week.While supporters say the judicial overhaul will rebalance power away from an overly activist court, critics argue the moves will remove essential checks on executive and legislative power, putting democracy in peril and leaving many basic rights unprotected.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Jerusalem security forces on alert as tens of thousands at 1st Friday Ramadan prayers-Senior police officer stresses non-Muslims to be barred from Temple Mount during holiday; estimated 83,000 worship at Al-Aqsa Mosque without incident-By ToI Staff-24 March 2023, 11:25 am

Security forces were on high alert in Jerusalem for the first Friday of Ramadan, as mass afternoon prayers held at the Temple Mount passed peacefully.The Muslim holy month, which began Thursday and will end April 21, often sees elevated Israeli-Palestinian tensions, with frictions already high this year in Jerusalem and across the West Bank following months of deadly violence.According to official estimates, some 83,000 people took part in afternoon prayers at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, located atop the Temple Mount.“This is a sensitive and complex period,” Police Commissioner Kobi Shabtai said after an assessment with commanders at the Western Wall in Jerusalem’s Old City. “The unique social fabric in East Jerusalem, the Old City and Temple Mount needs to be preserved.”“We will do everything in our capabilities to ensure freedom of religion for all worshipers while maintaining security and order,” he added.Shortly after prayers ended, police detained one man suspected of incitement for hanging the banner of a terrorist organization at the complex.As police sought to ensure calm, a top commander in Jerusalem stressed non-Muslims would be barred from visiting the Temple Mount during prayers.The military has eased some restrictions on movement for West Bank and Gazan Palestinians to allow women, children and some men to pray there without permits.“Jews will not be authorized to go up to the [Temple] Mount during Muslim prayer times,” Chief Superintendent Amir Ben-Kiki, the head of police operations in the capital, told Kan public radio.For Palestinian Muslims, worship at the Al-Aqsa Mosque — the third-holiest site in Islam — is a central part of the festival. Jews revere the same site as the Temple Mount, the holiest site in Judaism as the location of the ancient Temples.Regarding potential Palestinian home demolitions during Ramadan, Ben-Kiki stressed the matter was up to the Jerusalem Municipality, with police only providing security. Israeli authorities have typically refrained from such actions during Ramadan, though far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir — whose actions security officials have reportedly warned are contributing to tensions — has been pushing for increased demolition of illegal construction in East Jerusalem.“At the moment, we do not know that the municipality intends to destroy homes during Ramadan,” Ben-Kiki said.Meanwhile, Ben Gvir’s office announced he would attend a security briefing with police officers near the Temple Mount before giving a public statement.Border Police said some 2,400 officers were deployed Friday to Jerusalem, the West Bank and elsewhere as part of the heightened security measures.On Sunday, Israeli and Palestinian Authority delegations recommitted to de-escalating tensions ahead of Ramadan during a relatively rare, albeit low-stakes, regional summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.Some officials have warned that this Ramadan may be the most difficult to handle in years, as tensions remained high amid a cycle of deadly Israeli raids in the West Bank and deadly Palestinian terror attacks, as well as an uptick in settler violence.According to the Haaretz daily, during a recent meeting with Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, military officials said Israel’s ongoing internal unrest, the declining popularity of the Palestinian Authority, a rise in nationalist Jewish attacks and the actions of Ben Gvir are all contributing to a highly volatile state in the West Bank.A string of Palestinian attacks in Israel and the West Bank in recent months have left 15 people — almost all of them Israelis — dead and several more seriously hurt. Many of the attacks have occurred in the capital and were carried out by Palestinian residents of East Jerusalem.At least 85 Palestinians have been killed since the beginning of the year, most of them while carrying out attacks or during clashes with security forces, though some were uninvolved civilians and others were killed under circumstances that are being investigated.

NATO Secretary General to Party of European Socialists: crucial to sustain support to Ukraine-23 Mar. 2023 - Last updated: 23 Mar. 2023 11:51

Mr Stoltenberg outlined that sustaining support for Ukraine will involve ramping up production of weapons and ammunition, engaging with industry, and advancing joint procurement efforts. He stressed that he expected NATO Allies to agree an ambitious new defence investment pledge at the Vilnius Summit in July, with 2% of GDP as a minimum to be invested in defence.The Secretary General welcomed progress on Finland and Sweden’s path to NATO membership, including the upcoming ratification of Finland’s accession by Hungary and Türkiye. He further reiterated his strong commitment to ensuring that Sweden’s accession is also finalised as soon as possible.The PES is meeting in Brussels ahead of the European Council. It brings together heads of state and government and other high-level political actors from the socialist, social democratic, labour and democratic parties in Europe.

At least 23 killed, dozens injured as tornado rips through rural Mississippi-Four people still missing in southern US state; National Weather Service issued alert as the storm was hitting that didn’t mince words: ‘To protect your life, TAKE COVER NOW!’-By AP-25 March 2023, 3:43 pm

ROLLING FORK, Mississippi — Emergency officials in Mississippi said 23 people have been killed by tornadoes that tore through the state on Friday night, destroying buildings and knocking out power as severe weather that produced hail the size of golf balls moved through several southern states.The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency confirmed there had been 23 deaths as of 6:20 a.m. Saturday with dozens of injuries and four people missing throughout the state. The agency said in a Twitter post that search and rescue teams from numerous local and state agencies were deployed along with personnel to assist those impacted by the tornadoes.The National Weather Service confirmed a tornado caused damage about 60 miles (96 kilometers) northeast of Jackson, Mississippi. The rural towns of Silver City and Rolling Fork reported destruction as the tornado swept northeast at 70 mph (113 kph) without weakening, racing towards Alabama through towns including Winona and Amory into the night.The National Weather Service issued an alert as the storm was hitting that didn’t mince words: “To protect your life, TAKE COVER NOW!”“You are in a life-threatening situation,” it warned. “Flying debris may be deadly to those caught without shelter. Mobile homes will be destroyed. Considerable damage to homes, businesses, and vehicles is likely and complete destruction is possible.”Cornel Knight told The Associated Press that he, his wife and their 3-year-old daughter were at a relative’s home in Rolling Fork when the tornado struck. He said the sky was dark but “you could see the direction from every transformer that blew.”He said it was “eerily quiet” as that happened. Knight said he watched from a doorway until the tornado was, he estimated, less than a mile away. Then he told everyone in the house to take cover in a hallway. He said the tornado struck another relative’s home across a wide corn field from where he was. A wall in that home collapsed and trapped several people inside. As Knight spoke to AP by phone, he said he could see lights from emergency vehicles at the partially collapsed home.Rolling Fork mayor Eldridge Walker told WLBT-TV he was unable to get out of his damaged home soon after the tornado hit because power lines were down. He said emergency responders were trying to take injured people to hospitals. He did not immediately know how many people had been hurt.A former mayor of Rolling Fork, Fred Miller, told the television station a tornado blew the windows out of the back of his house.Storm chaser Reed Timmer posted on Twitter that Rolling Fork was in immediate need of emergency personnel and that he was heading with injured residents of the town to a Vicksburg hospital.The Sharkey-Issaquena Community Hospital on the west side of Rolling Fork was damaged, WAPT reported.The Sharkey County Sheriff’s Office in Rolling Fork reported gas leaks and people trapped in piles of rubble, according to the Vicksburg News. Some law enforcement units were unaccounted for in Sharkey, according to the newspaper.Rolling Fork and the surrounding area has wide expanses of cotton, corn and soybean fields and catfish farming ponds. More than a half-dozen shelters were opened in the state by emergency officials.Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves said in a Twitter post Friday night that search and rescue teams were active and that officials were sending more ambulances and emergency assets to those affected.“Many in the MS Delta need your prayer and God’s protection tonight,” the post said. “Watch weather reports and stay cautious through the night, Mississippi!”This was a supercell, the nasty type of storms that brew the deadliest tornado and most damaging hail in the United States, said University of Northern Illinois University meteorology professor Walker Ashley. What’s more is that this is a night-time wet one, which is “the worst kind,” he said.Meteorologists saw a big tornado risk coming for the general region, not the specific area, as much as a week in advance, said Ashley, who was discussing it with his colleagues as early as March 17. The National Weather Service’s Storm Prediction Center put out a long-range alert for the area on March 19, he said.Tornado experts like Ashley have been warning about increased risk exposure in the region because of people building more.“You mix a particularly socioeconomically vulnerable landscape with a fast-moving, long-track nocturnal tornado, and disaster will happen,” Ashley said in an email.Earlier Friday, a car was swept away and two passengers drowned in southwestern Missouri during torrential rains that were part of a severe weather system. Authorities said six young adults were in the vehicle that was swept away as the car tried to cross a bridge over a flooded creek in the town of Grovespring.Four of the six made it out of the water. The body of Devon Holt, 20, of Grovespring, was found at 3:30 a.m., and the body of Alexander Roman-Ranelli, 19, of Springfield, was recovered about six hours later, Missouri State Highway Patrol Sgt. Thomas Young said.The driver told authorities that the rain made it difficult to see that water from a creek had covered the bridge, Young said.Meanwhile, the search continued in another southwestern Missouri county for a woman who was missing after flash flooding from a small river washed a car off the road. The Logan Rogersville Fire Protection District said there was no sign of the woman. Two others who were in the car were rescued. Crews planned to use boats and have searchers walking along the riverbank.When a woman’s SUV got swept up in rushing flood waters Friday morning near Granby, Missouri, Layton Hoyer made his way through icy-cold waters to rescue her.Some parts of southern Missouri saw nearly 3 inches (8 centimeters) of rain Thursday night and into Friday morning as severe weather hit other areas. A suspected tornado touched down early Friday in north Texas.Matt Elliott, warning coordination meteorologist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Oklahoma, said the severe weather was expected across several states.The Storm Prediction Center warned the greatest threat of tornadoes would come in portions of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee. Storms with damaging winds and hail were forecast from eastern Texas and southeastern Oklahoma into parts of southeastern Missouri and southern Illinois.More than 49,000 customers had lost power in Arkansas, Mississippi and Tennessee as of Friday night, according to poweroutage.us.In Texas, a suspected tornado struck about 5 a.m. in the southwest corner of Wise County, damaging homes and downing trees and power lines, said Cody Powell, the county’s emergency management coordinator. Powell said no injuries were reported.The weather service had not confirmed a tornado, but damage to homes was also reported in neighboring Parker County, said meteorologist Matt Stalley.

Tornado levels homes in Georgia, 'people trapped' as severe weather piles on region post-Mississippi disaster-Tornado wreaks havoc in Troup County, Georgia, near West Point and LaGrange-By Danielle Wallace | Fox News

A tornado reportedly touched down early Sunday in Troup County, Georgia, near the Alabama border, flattening homes and risking a possible direct hit to an automobile plant. Georgia Mutual Aid Group (GMAG) said affected areas included the county seat of LaGrange, about 67 miles southwest of Atlanta."I-85 Blocked both sides N of Ga 103. All Troup Co. vollies activated, ordered to report to all stations to stand by for deployment. Many buildings damaged, people trapped," GMAG wrote on Facebook. In the town of West Point, Ga., the group warned of, "numerous houses collapsed, people trapped" around the areas of Samples Road, First Ave. and West Smith Road. "Many Roads blocked by debris. I-85 Closed, both directions due to many trees across Interstate and vehicles damaged," the post said.The Troup County Sheriff's Office said it was receiving multiple reports of trees down, damage to houses and power lines down."If you do not have to get on the roads this morning please do not travel," the agency wrote Sunday morning. "There is also a report that Verizon cell service is interrupted." "STAY OFF THE ROADS Troup County!" another message from the sheriff's office said. "TORNADO WATCH for Troup County until 1 PM," another post added. "FLOOD WATCH until Monday."Georgia residents shared photos and videos to social media of large golf-ball-sized pieces of hail falling over the area early Sunday. Amid the tornado watch, the sheriff's office also warned it received a report from the Pine Mountain Animal Safari "that they are reporting a Tiger that is unaccounted inside the park." The Weather Channel meteorologist Jennifer Watson cited local EMA in tweeting Sunday about multiple injuries reported from the tornado that moved south of LaGrange, Ga. this morning. She also noted reports of homes leveled and that parts of highways I-85 and 185 were closed due to trees and damage.Another social media user speculated that the projected path of the tornado suggested the Kia Assembly Plant in West Point, Ga., could take a "direct hit." Fox News Digital reached out to Georgia Emergency Management and Kia Georgia for more information but did not hear back before publication. This comes as President Joe Biden issued an emergency declaration for Mississippi early Sunday, making federal funding available to the areas hardest hit Friday night by a deadly tornado that ripped through the Mississippi Delta, one of the poorest regions of the U.S. At least 25 people were killed and dozens of others were injured in Mississippi as the massive storm ripped through several towns on its hour-long path. One man was killed after his trailer home flipped several times in Alabama.Search and recovery crews on Sunday resumed the daunting task of digging through the debris of flattened and battered homes, commercial buildings and municipal offices after hundreds of people were displaced. The National Weather Service warned of a risk of more severe weather Sunday -- including high winds, large hail and possible tornadoes in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia.The Associated Press contributed to this report.Danielle Wallace is a reporter for Fox News Digital.

PSALMS 14:1
1  To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

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)
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:(LESBIENS)
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly,(SODOMITES) and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.(AIDS ETC)
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:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

GOD CREATED THEM MALE AND FEMALE IN MARRIAGE

GENESIS 1:27-28
27  So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28  And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply,(HAVE LOTS OF CHILDREN) and replenish the earth,(HOMOSEXUALS CAN NOT REPLENISH THE EARTH WITH CHILDREN)(BY HAVING SEX WITH EACH OTHER) and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

GENESIS 2:21-24
21  And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
22  And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23  And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
24  Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

MATTHEW 19:4-6
4  And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
5  And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
6  Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

LGBTQ dating app Grindr warns Egyptian users of police targeting-Company says cops in Muslim nation impersonating community members to catch and prosecute individuals-By AP-25 March 2023, 5:20 am

CAIRO — A popular gay social networking application said Friday that it is issuing a warning to its users in Egypt, as police impersonate community members to target LGBTQ individuals.Users in Egypt will see the following warning appear in Arabic and English when they open the app:“We have been alerted that Egyptian police is actively making arrests of gay, bi, and trans people on digital platforms. They are using fake accounts and have also taken over accounts from real community members who have already been arrested and had their phones taken. Please take extra caution online and offline, including with accounts that may have seemed legitimate in the past.”Egypt, though it technically does not outlaw homosexuality, frequently prosecutes members of the LGBTQ community on the grounds of ‘debauchery,’ or ‘violating public decency.’ In 2017, it arrested seven for raising a rainbow flag at a rock concert. And arrests of homosexuals and non-gender conforming individuals remain common.An Egyptian government media officer did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Grindr’s new measure.The warning to users comes after rights groups and media have reported how authorities in the wider region are increasingly taking to digital platforms to crack down on the LGBTQ community.In February, Human Rights Watch released a report documenting dozens of cases of security agencies in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq and Tunisia extorting, harassing, publicly outing, and detaining LGBTQ people based on their activities on Facebook and Instagram, as well as the dating app Grindr. The publication also questioned major tech companies for not investing sufficiently in Arabic language content moderation and protection.“Grindr is working with groups on the ground in Egypt to make sure our users have up-to-date information on how to stay safe, and we are pushing international organizations and governments to demand justice and safety for the Egyptian LGBTQ community,” said Grindr spokesperson Patrick Lenihan in response to a request for comment on Friday.A popular dating app for the gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community, California-based Grindr has faced criticism in the US and been fined in Norway for sharing personal data with third parties that could potentially identify users.The privacy policy on the company’s website outlines how it uses and aims to protect user data. It adds that its goal “is to put you in control of as much of the Personal Information that you share within the Grindr Properties as possible.”

22  And the children (2 NATIONS IN HER-ISRAEL-ARABS) struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD.

16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
