About 46 percent of essential medicines out of stock in Gaza,

46 percent of essential medicines are out of stock, 66 percent of medical supplies are also out of stock and 84 percent of laboratory and blood bank supplies are depleted.

“The first consequence is global: The Israeli regime’s conduct in Palestine and the impunity granted to it have deeply damaged the international legal order,” he said, adding that “the world is moving toward a condition where the international law is no longer respected.”

The minister stressed that the second result was regional saying: “Israel’s expansionist project has had a direct and destabilising impact on the security of all countries in the region.”

said that “openly violates borders, breaches sovereignties, assassinates official dignitaries, conducts terrorist operations” in the region “with a sense of entitlement.”

According to the top diplomat, the third consequence, which he called “structural”, is that “Israel’s expansionist project requires that neighbouring countries be weakened – militarily, technologically, economically and socially.”

He said: “So that the Israeli regime permanently enjoys the upper hand.”

More from Iranian FM Araghchi

The human cost of Israel’s atrocities in Gaza has wounded the conscience of humanity, it has torn open the heart of the Muslim world, and it has also shaken millions beyond – Christians, Jews and people of all kinds and all faiths.

We still believe that the life of a child is not a bargaining chip, starvation is not a weapon, hospitals are not battlefields, and killing of families is not self-defence.

Palestine today is not simply a tragedy; it is a mirror held up to the world.

It reflects not only the suffering of Palestinians, but also the moral failure of those who had the power to stop this catastrophe and chose instead to justify, enable or normalise it.

Unbearable: Gaza residents describe water, sanitation crisis despite ‘ceasefire’

“It takes us three to four hours to fill two or three gallons of water, meaning 100 liters [26 gallons]. The water shortage is unbearable. We hope that charities or companies will provide water trucks near our tents,” said Mohammad Abu Rabie, displaced Palestinian from Rafah

“I wake up at five in the morning and stand in line for water to provide water for my children. The drinking water supply is from six to eight in the morning, and then the trucks leave,” said Tamara al-Masry, displaced Palestinian from Beit Hanoun.

“After that, we go to the brackish water source to get water to wash our children’s clothes. Then we go to the charity kitchen. I wait here from 11 am until sunset so I can provide food for my children.”

The international community must affirm: the end of [Israeli] occupation [in Palestine], the right of return [for Palestinians] and compensation in accordance with international law.

The establishment of a unified and independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.

The humanitarian crisis [in Gaza] must be treated as a matter of urgent international responsibility. Collective punishment must never be normalised.

Here are some of the actions he seeks:

The international community must support legal mechanisms without hesitation. There must be consequences for violations.

Comprehensive and targeted sanctions against Israel, including: an immediate arms embargo, the suspension of military and intelligence cooperation, restrictions on officials, banning trade

Iran’s Araghchi calls on global community to unite against Israeli breaches of international law

“It is not enough to express concern. It is not enough to issue statements. It is not enough to mourn. We need a coordinated strategy of action – legal, diplomatic, economic, and security-based – rooted in the principles of international law and collective responsibility,” Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has said at Al Jazeera Forum.

The spotted-tail quoll (Dasyurus maculatus) is a carnivorous marsupial that can be found on the eastern Australian mainland, as well as on the island of Tasmania. It hunts a variety of critters, including small mammals, reptiles, and birds, and takes down prey with a powerful bite. Its hisses and screams have been likened to the sounds of a circular saw!

AI eliminated the natural barrier to entry that let OSS projects trust by default. People told me to do something rather than just complain. So I did. Introducing Vouch: explicit trust management for open source. Trusted people vouch for others. github.com/mitchellh/vouch

The idea is simple: Unvouched users can't contribute to your projects. Very bad users can be explicitly "denounced", effectively blocked. Users are vouched or denounced by contributors via GitHub issue or discussion comments or via the CLI.

Integration into GitHub is as simple as adopting the published GitHub actions. Done. Additionally, the system itself is generic to forges and not tied to GitHub in any way.

Who and how someone is vouched or denounced is up to the project. I'm not the value police for the world. Decide for yourself what works for your project and your community.

All of the data is stored in a single flat text file in your own repository that can be easily parsed by standard POSIX tools or mainstream languages with zero dependencies.

My hope is that eventually projects can form a web of trust so that projects with shared values can share their vouch lists with each other (automatically) so vouching or denouncing a person in one project has ripple effects through to other projects.

The idea is based on the already successful system used by @badlogicgames in Pi. Thank you Mario.

Ghostty will be integrating this imminently.

Just had to rewrite a bunch of the placement logic for Octavo, my PDF imposition/printing Mac app. It was a bit of a rabbit hole, there were a bunch of bugs and bad assumptions interacting together, and as soon as I wanted to place a page slot rotated 90 degrees, they all came to the surface.

Fixed and unit tested now.

As a reminder, the TestFlight beta is open: octavo.pro

Screenshot of Octavo. The current page is marked Secret Poster, and appears rotated 90 degrees in the preview editor.
