Vilas Thanna, the father of Ponsak Thanna, a Thai fruit farmer who was held hostage to Gaza, barely managed to eliminate the words while digesting the news of the release of his son after 15 months of captivity."When we are happy, we cry," he said. “When we are sad, we also cry. But these are happy tears. "Mr. Ponsak was among the five Thai hostages that were released on Thursday.

At the confirmation hearings of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., starting from Wednesday, senators are expected to question him closely about his controversial opinions on vaccines.For years Kennedy has questioned the security of vaccines, including those for polio and measles, two diseases that continue to damage children. More recently, he said that he has no intention of removing the vaccines from the Americans but wants to release security data to the public, even if almost all data are already publicly available.The opposite opinions of Mr. Kennedy extend well beyond vaccines. And as a secretary of health and human services, he would have had a huge influence on health policy, also on issues generally under state control, cutting funding for certain programs or raising others.Here is a control ...

For two summers during high school, instead of joining his classmates on the beach, Noura Ghazoui had an internship at the town hall of his hometown, Borghetto Santo Spirito, on the Ligurian coast.But when he tried to request a job at the age of 19, he found himself not admissible because, like hundreds of thousands of children born to immigrants in Italy, he could not have Italian citizenship."I feel Italian, I believe in Italian, dream in Italian," said Mrs. Ghazoui in Italian with Ligurian accent. "But I'm not recognized in my country."For generations, European countries have mainly used blood lines to determine citizenship. The United States were an exception in the West as one of the last countries to grant citizenship unconditionally to practically anyone born there.The order of Pres...

The Vatican asked for a constant supervision of artificial intelligence on Tuesday, warning the potential of "shadow of evil" in technology, which according to him offered "a source of enormous opportunities but also of profound risks".In a new document intended to recommend the Catholic faithful, the Church has warned that technology should be used to integrate human intelligence, "rather than replacing its wealth". The document was approved by Pope Francis, who repeatedly warned that the application of artificial intelligence should be based on ethical and moral considerations."In all areas where humans are called to make decisions, the shadow of evil also looms here," said the Vatican in the newspaper. He added: "The moral evaluation of this technology will have to consider the way it i...

After more than a year of Israeli bombing in Gaza, there were few blessings for Talal and Samar Al-Najjar to count when a fire was agreed. Their house was in ruins, they and their children were displaced and were giving hunger.Yet they were lucky: their seven family was intact, something to feel grateful to the war between Israel and Hamas, who killed tens of thousands. Many others are likely to be discovered by the rubble.So, with only hours until the 15 -month nightmare of the Palestinian enclave was paused, it hit the disaster.Their 20-year-old son, Amr Al-Najjar, had rushed to their village in the south of Gaza, hoping to be the first at home. Instead, it became one of the latest lives claimed before the start of the fragile truce."We were waiting so much time to celebrate the ceasefir...

Tuesday the Trump administration issued a derogation for medicines and medical services life -saving, offering a recovery for an HIV treatment program all over the world that was stopped last week.The renunciation, announced by the Secretary of State Marco Rubio, seemed to allow the distribution of drugs for HIV, but if the renunciation extended to preventive drugs or other services offered by the program, the emergency plan of the president for the rescue of the AIDS , was not immediately clear.However, Pepfar's future remains in danger, with potential consequences for over 20 million people - including 500,000 children - who could lose access to life -saving drugs. Without care, millions of people with HIV in low -income countries would be at risk of full -blown aids and premature death....

The British populist party, reform UK, should have brought over $ 1.25 million dollars to a sumptuous fundraising on Tuesday, said a party official, an extraordinary amount for a party that six months ago was at the margin of national politics .The great American -style event was the first large fundraising since Nigel Farage has taken on the position of party leaders and his ideological ally, Donald J. Trump, returned to the White House.Mr. Farage wants to redo the British conservatism, just as Trump did in the United States. He pushed the movement to the right with an anti-immigrated and anti-regulation nationalistic platform.For a party that has collected less than $ 200,000 all over 2023, the turnaround since Mr. Farage became his leader last year was remarkable. Riding a populist wave...

The pedestrians soon formed a human column that extended as far as the eye can see: long miles and about 20 people in step. Rarely such an uncomfortable journey seemed such a relief."We are so happy," said Malak Al-Haj Ahmed, 17 years old, a high school student who was selfie with his family next to the coastal road. "There is no more joyful moment than to go home."To score the moment, some people have distributed sweets. Some signs of victory flashed to passage photographers. A group of kids led a celebratory song. "On the right or left, the North is the best," they sang. "In the north we go!"For the Palestinians, it was a moment imbued with symbolism. From the Foundation of Israel in 1948, when hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were expelled or fled from their homes in what is known ...
