Doctors Without Borders warned that new Israeli measures threaten humanitarian work in Gaza and the West Bank, potentially leaving hundreds of thousands without healthcare by 2026 due to strict registration and permit requirements.

Organizations must provide full details about staff and families, which could lead to political rejections. Haaretz reported that the Ministry of Diaspora can reject requests based on criteria such as denying Israel’s legitimacy or supporting its boycott.

this is beautiful! When was this taken? Last year I believe there was a planetary “procession” … but I haven’t paid attention to it this year.
(Also suggestion to enhance the alt text: morning sunrise photo of the planets etc. with a waning crescent silvery moon 🌙 and pink clouds against a city horizon with a body of water reflecting the scene in the foreground. Early winter is my guess by the surrounding landscape.)
