Israeli forces fired tear gas into a mosque in Madama near Nablus, while settlers tried to burn and vandalized the Nur al-Din Zanki Mosque in nearby Bazariya, according to Al Jazeera and Palestinian officials.
Worshippers need both mosques reopened, but removing residue, burn marks, graffiti, and damaged objects before documenting them could weaken later journalism, official complaints, and legal review.
A Pesticide Action Network-commissioned study used public data from 2006 through 2023 to estimate 402 million to 433 million acute pesticide poisonings and about 11,000 deaths among agricultural workers annually.
Weak surveillance and food prices that exclude protective equipment, treatment, and lost work leave farm workers, their families, and public health systems paying much of agriculture’s exposure cost.
Researchers studying a severe solar storm over the continental United States measured satellite-positioning errors of roughly 33 feet, large enough to disrupt autonomous transportation.
A lane-scale positioning error can expose passengers and road users to risk, while missing telemetry can prevent investigators from reconstructing how an autonomous system detected and handled it.
Talka Sada borrowed about $13 and traveled through flood-hit Nepal searching hospitals, mortuaries, and damaged districts for his missing 19-year-old son, Vinod.
Without a unified missing-person record, families must spend scarce money carrying names and photographs between agencies that may hold disconnected pieces of the same search.
Experts cited by the Associated Press said air conditioning and other cooling measures save thousands of lives each year even as their energy use and emissions worsen global warming.
Households and governments must expand access to cooling without forcing vulnerable people to choose between dangerous heat, unaffordable power bills, and higher future climate costs.
President Donald Trump posted two unlabeled AI-generated videos depicting a US attack on Iran’s Kharg Island, and a US official later said the attack had not occurred.
During active US-Iran hostilities, a fabricated strike shared by the president can complicate military communication, news verification, adversary interpretation, and the permanent record.
US officials may require parents to prove their citizenship or immigration status when they apply for passports for their children, Reuters reported.
Citizen children could face delayed or denied travel when a parent’s certificates are missing, names conflict, records are sealed, or another agency controls the needed file.
ICE said it has enough body cameras after its immigration officers were involved in more than two dozen shootings during the Trump administration.
Without enforceable activation, retention, audit, and disclosure rules, crucial evidence from an ICE shooting can remain missing or inaccessible despite the new equipment.
ProPublica found that University of Florida professor Christopher McCurdy advocated against kratom bans without routinely disclosing support and reimbursements from the American Kratom Association.
Lawmakers, regulators, journals, and readers may have weighed McCurdy’s kratom research and testimony without knowing enough about the industry group supporting parts of his work.
Authorities have demolished hundreds of homes occupied by working-poor residents near Islamabad’s Bari Imam Sufi shrine within the past year, and neighbors fear more removals.
The demolitions could preserve a pilgrimage destination while displacing the workers, families, and neighborhood memory that sustain its daily social life.
The US Postal Service is developing an online system tied to President Donald Trump’s mail-voting executive order, while a whistleblower alleges the work is rushed and sloppy.
If courts permit the policy and the system fails, mailed-ballot decisions could burden voters and election offices with errors that are difficult to detect or reverse before deadlines.
Nepalese authorities began burying unidentified flood victims in a mass grave in Chitwan district after DNA sampling as the recovered death toll reached 1,003.
Families need durable links among names, DNA samples, grave locations, and recovered remains if interrupted funeral rites and identification are to remain possible.
