A group of researchers has raised an alarm regarding the fact that between 2,000 and 5,000 tons of uranium, extracted alongside cobalt in Congo, may have escaped IAEA controls and been used for nuclear purposes, raising concerns about the safety and environmental impact of mining activities.

L’allarme dagli Usa: il materiale radioattivo è sfuggito ai controlli dell’Aiea

I know that nothing will erase what happened on that August 10th, but I also know that, little by little, the people of Cali will rise again. This family receives much more than the keys to an apartment: they receive a place to reconstruct their daily lives, to feel safe again, and to begin writing new moments. Giving them a roof of their own is not a ceremonial act; it is the sacred duty of a State that does not abandon its people in the midst of adversity. Behind these doors, there is not only concrete and real solutions. There is dignity, there is hope, and there is the certainty that, from the ruins, we rise stronger than ever to rebuild life with faith and character. This Government works tirelessly in the territory so that no affected family walks alone on the path to starting over. Firm for the Homeland! Long live Christ the King! (translated)

Susi Snyder warns that never before has the risk of nuclear war been so high and that only international law can prevent this threat, linking the expansion of arsenals to the interests of the military industry. (translated)

Snyder: “Mai come oggi si rischia la guerra nucleare. Solo il diritto internazionale può evitarla”

This is not just about housing. It directly appeals to our conception of the common good and the responsibilities we have as a society. It is about appealing to the function of politics to improve the lives of everyone, or just a few. This highlights what capitalism is. (translated)

Just keep her locked in a bathroom until she heals, the least you can do to avoid her spending the rest of her life on the street; after that, she will calm down. Whether she appears or not, it’s because you have to help; it’s cosmic, there’s no point in denying it, they come to those who can. (translated)

"Here there are people from many ideologies, but we are all facing the same problem, we spend 70, 80, or 90% of our salary on a crappy room." (translated)

Jez Corden claims that Xbox is NOT paying $400 million for the development of Physint. He explains that that figure would be much closer to what PlayStation was willing to invest in the project. Xbox would be contributing only a fraction of those $400 million and, in addition, the agreement would include improvements for the development of OD and licenses for Physint for film and television.

Under police protection, the Gaza Tribunal took place in Hamburg. An event by lawyers about the genocide in Gaza. As a press representative, I took on a contribution regarding the role of the media. There were attempts at intimidation beforehand. So much so that the police came for security on the day of the event. The venue, the community center in Wilhelmsburg, was plastered with incitement. The event hall received an email demanding that I should not appear. I firmly opposed this. And ultimately, the hall was not pressured. This is important. Civil society must never be intimidated. At least this time the police were outside for protection, and not inside for monitoring. Either way, I would have traveled to Hamburg. The German Lawyers for International Law (DJfdV) organized a fantastic event. With important insights into the legal assessment of the genocide in Gaza and other sub-issues by experts such as Benjamin Düsberg, Ammar Boustami, Sebastian Scheerer, Yolanda Scheytt, and Alexander Gorski. My contribution was based on the accounts of the witness of the genocide, Abed Hassan. Abed made it clear through his personal experiences and records that German media should have been aware early on of specific genocidal acts. My colleague Fabian Goldmann also provided a brilliant contribution regarding the role of German media. I spoke about the fact that journalism must fearlessly, clearly, and loudly name this urgent truth - namely, that a genocide is taking place. Also, because the press should represent civil society against the powerful. The great German Jewish journalist Carl von Ossietzky, who was deported to a concentration camp by the Nazis for his truth, reminded us at the time that journalism should not shy away from this danger. The risk must be the driving force. Journalism must not be a "life insurance." In this sense, I view every attempt to be censored as praise. (translated)

Everyone who constantly demands negotiations with Moscow should memorize this. The German Foreign Minister should not be mocked by anyone, especially not by a Russian minister who has zero influence at home in Moscow. (translated)

Today, the goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu from Ireland has announced that he will not play the match for his national team against the genociders of Israel in a show of solidarity with Palestine: "My decision is purely based on my personal belief that killing innocent people is wrong." Very big. (translated)

Ignacio Urquizu emphasizes that the current camp at Puerta del Sol against evictions, although reminiscent of 15-M, showcases a greater diversity of ages and reflects an unprecedented concern for housing in Spain. (translated)

Ignacio Urquizu, sociólogo, sobre la acampada en Sol: "En el 15-M había más jóvenes, ahora hay gente de todas las edades"

We are crowdfunding all of Stefan Holm's expenses related to this. He did the right thing and should not pay a penny. (translated)

The Italian government urges oil companies to follow the example of Eni, which has announced a cap on gasoline and diesel prices, while other companies await reactions to the new market scenario. (translated)

The left, who voted for the Government 8 years ago, camping at Puerta del Sol against the disasters of that same Government. Poetry. (translated)

As long as such people are protected for such rubbish and are showered with money and honors, nothing has changed in Germany. Now you don't even need PCR anymore. How many "climate commissioners" are there in your city? (translated)

Ben Berndt has invited Michael Kyrath to his podcast “{ungeskriptet} by Ben.” This will probably be the saddest and most emotional podcast we have seen so far. This short excerpt is already gripping and takes your breath away. His 17-year-old daughter and her 19-year-old boyfriend were murdered in January 2023 in the severe knife attack in Brokstedt on a regional train in Schleswig-Holstein by a stateless Palestinian. It is the worst thing that can happen to a father or mother, to bury your own child. To lose your own child. And to do so in such a way. Thank you, Ben, for giving @kueksElm a voice. And thank you, Michael Kyrath, for everything you do. It must be hell for you and at the same time, you want to spare other families this suffering. That's great. (translated)

Gigantic camp right now at the Puerta del Sol in Madrid against evictions and in defense of adequate housing. (translated)

What a miserable person one must be as an Antifa photographer to take pictures of people at a wake and then publicly shame them on the left platform "Dokunetzwerk Rhein-Main"? But that’s not all, the two left-wing extremists were in turn exposed and published on X by Christopher Albrecht @ChrisKnsrvt. Johannes F. and Tim D. are now demanding that Albrecht delete their images. They also provided him with two legal cease-and-desist requests with a deadline until September 29, 2026. Additionally, he is to issue a penalized cease-and-desist declaration. Failure to comply will lead to legal action from the photographers. "Dokunetzwerk Rhein-Main" accuses the grieving relatives of migrant victims of utilizing severe violent crimes and attacks in Germany to create a racially motivated atmosphere against refugees and people with a migration background.

Lavrov clearly described what happened after the meeting with Wadephul: The German Foreign Minister essentially read out the known public positions of Germany – nothing new, nothing that one hasn't already heard a hundred times. The impression arose between the lines that merely the occurrence of the conversation should already be regarded as a major concession and that corresponding concessions were expected in return – for example, regarding Ukraine and shipping in the Black Sea. Lavrov appeared more amused than annoyed. One could say: He kindly but unmistakably brought German diplomacy back to the ground of reality. (translated)
