In this episode, host Ray Powell sits down with Dr. Lailufar Yasmin, a renowned political scientist at the University of Dhaka, to unpack Bangladesh's dramatic recent political crisis and explore why what happens in this densely populated South Asian nation matters to the broader Indo-Pacific regional stability.Recorded just one day after Bangladesh's International Crimes Tribunal sentenced former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to death in absentia for crimes against humanity--this conversation provides crucial context for understanding a nation in transition. Powell and Dr. Yasmin discuss the uprising that toppled Hasina's government, the interim administration led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus, and the geopolitical implications for great power competition in South Asia.Dr. Yasmin explains how the July 2024 student protests escalated into a nationwide uprising after Hasina's government responded with lethal force, killing over 1,400 protesters. The movement, known as the "July Uprising," ultimately forced Hasina to flee to India on August 5, 2024, ending her 15-year authoritarian rule. The conversation explores how Hasina transformed from a democracy icon into an increasingly autocratic leader who rigged elections, suppressed opposition, and dismantled democratic institutions.The episode delves into the "July Charter," a reform blueprint calling for constitutional changes including a bicameral parliament, proportional representation, prime ministerial term limits, and restoration of the caretaker government system. Dr. Yasmin discusses the upcoming February 2026 referendum and elections, explaining the challenges of ensuring credible democratic transition amid deep political divisions, the banning of the Awami League political party, and security concerns.The conversation reveals how India's strong historical support for Hasina and the Awami League—rooted in India's assistance during Bangladesh's 1971 War of Independence—has created tension following her ouster. Dr. Yasmin describes India's initial disinformation campaigns falsely blaming Pakistani intelligence for the uprising, and how the interim government's engagement with China has also caused concern in New Delhi. She argues that Bangladesh must pursue an independent foreign policy that serves its national interests rather than simply accommodating regional powers.The discussion also provides essential historical context, tracing Bangladesh's origins from the 1971 Liberation War when East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) fought for independence from West Pakistan, resulting in genocide that killed an estimated three million people. Dr. Yasmin explains how this history continues to shape contemporary politics, including emotional debates over justice and national identity.Dr. Yasmin also addresses the selection of Muhammad Yunus as interim leader, describing how the Nobel Peace Prize winner's global credibility and pioneering work in microcredit made him an acceptable figure to unite a divided nation. She discusses both the promise and challenges of his leadership, including concerns about whether the interim government can remain truly neutral given that many of its coordinators are former student protesters.Dr. Yasmin challenges Western misconceptions about Bangladesh, emphasizing the nation's resilience, innovation in climate adaptation, economic progress, and warm hospitality.

Bangladesh's former prime minister Sheikh Hasina has been found guilty of crimes against humanity and sentenced to death. A tribunal in Dhaka found she had ordered security forces to kill protesters during student-led anti-government demonstrations in 2024. The UN estimates up to 1,400 people died during the uprising, most by gunfire. Sheikh Hasina was tried in her absence and has been living in exile in India since being forced from power. She has dismissed the court's verdict as politically motivated. Also: a plea from the UN aid chief to stop the supply of weapons to the rival armies in Sudan. A BBC investigation has uncovered evidence raising doubts about the trial of US marines over the killings of Iraqi civilians in 2005.

In this insightful talk, Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera explores the core reasons marriage is emphasized in Islam—spiritually, emotionally, and socially—highlighting how it brings stability, companionship, and a pathway to fulfilling one's faith. He outlines the essential qualities to look for when choosing a spouse, focusing on character, piety, emotional maturity, and compatibility, while cautioning against superficial criteria that often mislead. Dr. Mangera also addresses how individuals can prepare themselves for marriage by cultivating strong personal habits, realistic expectations, and a clear understanding of the responsibilities that come with this sacred bond. The talk further examines common causes of marital conflict, from communication breakdowns and unmet expectations to spiritual neglect and external pressures. Dr. Mangera offers practical and faith-anchored strategies to prevent and resolve these issues, urging couples to approach marriage with sincerity, patience, and a commitment to mutual growth. By blending classical teachings with contemporary insight, he equips listeners with the tools needed to build marriages that are resilient, compassionate, and rooted in divine guidance.

Rendre visible ce que nos poumons subissent chaque jour… C'est l'ambition de la carte interactive de Climate TRACE. L'outil, déjà connu pour localiser les sites industriels les plus polluants, franchit une étape décisive : il montre désormais les panaches de particules fines – les fameux PM2,5 – que ces installations rejettent dans l'air que nous respirons.La plateforme ne couvre pas tout : seules apparaissent les centrales électriques, l'industrie lourde, les ports, les raffineries et les mines. Mais cela représente tout de même 9 560 sites répartis dans 2 572 zones urbaines. Gavin McCormick, cofondateur de Climate TRACE et directeur exécutif de l'ONG WattTime, confie avoir découvert qu'il vivait lui-même dans le panache d'un super-émetteur dont il ignorait l'existence. Et il n'est pas seul : selon les concepteurs, plus d'1,6 milliard de citadins sont exposés à un air contaminé par ces rejets.Derrière la carte, le message est clair : la pollution atmosphérique et la crise climatique ont la même racine, la combustion des énergies fossiles. « Les particules générées par ces installations retombent sur les quartiers voisins et provoquent 8,7 millions de morts chaque année », rappelle Al Gore, cofondateur du projet et ancien vice-président des États-Unis. L'analyse identifie aussi les « super-émetteurs », ces 10 % d'installations qui produisent la majorité des particules fines. Plus de 900 millions de personnes respirent un air directement contaminé par ces géants pollueurs.La carte révèle enfin les dix zones urbaines les plus exposées : Karachi arrive en tête, suivie de Guangzhou, Séoul, New York, Dhaka, Le Caire, Shanghai, Bangkok, Shenzhen et Tokyo. Autant de mégapoles où des millions d'habitants vivent au quotidien dans des nuages invisibles mais mortels. Pour illustrer ces données, les chercheurs citent « l'Allée du Cancer » en Louisiane. Dans ce couloir industriel, le taux de cancers atteint jusqu'à 50 fois la moyenne nationale. Si la région était un pays, elle figurerait parmi les pires émetteurs mondiaux de gaz à effet de serre. « Beaucoup savaient déjà qu'ils vivaient dans l'ombre des grands pollueurs », résume Gavin McCormick. Aujourd'hui, les preuves sont là, visibles par tous. Reste désormais à agir, insiste Al Gore, pour que ces nuages invisibles cessent d'étouffer les villes du monde. Hébergé par Acast.

Cada martes falo coa Psicóloga e sexóloga Verónica Barros de Barros psicoloxía , un espazo no que se abordan cuestións fundamentais do benestar emocional, as dinámicas persoais e as relacións humanas. Un podcast pensado para quen quere reflexionar, conectar coas súas emocións e aprender ferramentas útiles para vivir con máis saúde mental, autenticidade e respeto propio. Hoxe falamos da Explotación Sexual e a Trata de Personas. 🔊"Vagalumes, en Santiago de Compostela axuda a persoas vítimas da prostitución, abuso ou trata de persoas". 🔊"Estamos nunha sociedade na que a muller é un producto". 🔊"Mentras haxa puteros, haberá explotación sexual e trata de persoas". 📢 O Día Internacional contra a Explotación Sexual e Trata de Persoas celébrase o 23 de setembro desde 1999 e foi promulgado pola Conferencia Mundial da Coalición Contra o Tráfico de Persoas en coordinación coa Conferencia de Mujeres que tivo lugar en Dhaka, Bangladesh, en xaneiro dese mesmo ano. Foi o 23 de setembro do ano 1913 cando se promulgou a primeira lei no mundo contra a prostitución infantil. Foi na Arxentina coa denominada "Lei Palacios", porque foi redactada e impulsada polo deputado socialista Alfredo Palacios. No ano 2013 a Asemblea Xeral da ONU decretou o 30 de xullo como Día Mundial contra Trátaa de Persoas. ✔️Que é a trata de persoas? Consiste na compra venda e explotación de nenos e adultos, para diversos destinos como o tráfico de órganos, traballos forzados, sendo a explotación sexual o destino máis frecuente para nenas e mulleres. Estímase que no mundo 1,8 millóns de persoas son vítimas de delitos de trata de persoas para explotación sexual, unha secuela que só é equiparable ao tráfico de drogas e de armas. Os traficantes de persoas aprovéitanse de situacións de pobreza, falta de educación, desastres naturais, guerras e outras circunstancias, para subtraer aos nenos, nenas ou adultos e vendelos ás mafias. As crises migratorias foron aproveitadas polas redes delituosas para actuar contra os máis vulnerables. Os traficantes abusan cada vez máis dos sistemas de asilo.

Miguel Ángel González Suárez te presenta el Informativo de Primera Hora en 'El Remate', el programa matinal de La Diez Capital Radio que arranca tu día con: Las noticias más relevantes de Canarias, España y el mundo, analizadas con rigor y claridad. Hoy hace 365 días: Se reactivan las obras del circuito del motor en Tenerife. Hoy se cumplen 1.321 días del cruel ataque e invasión de Rusia a Ucrania. 3 años y 211 días. Hoy es martes 23 de septiembre de 2025. Día Internacional Contra la Explotación Sexual y la Trata de Personas. El Día Internacional contra la Explotación Sexual y la Trata de Personas se celebra el 23 de septiembre desde 1999 y fue promulgado por la Conferencia Mundial de la Coalición Contra el Tráfico de Personas en coordinación con la Conferencia de Mujeres que tuvo lugar en Dhaka, Bangladés, en enero de ese mismo año. Fue el 23 de septiembre del año 1913 cuando se promulgó la primera ley en el mundo contra la prostitución infantil. Fue en Argentina con la denominada "Ley Palacios", porque fue redactada e impulsada por el diputado socialista Alfredo Palacios. Que es la Explotación Sexual y la Trata de Personas? Consiste en la compra venta y explotación de niños y adultos, para diversos destinos como el tráfico de órganos, trabajos forzados, siendo la explotación sexual el destino más frecuente para niñas y mujeres. En 1889, se funda la fábrica de naipes llamada Nintendo, pero lo que no sabrían es que en 1970 sería la líder de las videoconsolas. 1909: Se publica por primera vez la novela de "El fantasma de la ópera" de Gaston Leroux. 1939.- El Gobierno español deroga la Ley de Divorcio de 1932 y declara nulas todas las sentencias. 1972.- Ángel Nieto, se proclama campeón del mundo de 50 cc y 125 cc en Montjuïc (Barcelona). 2010.- Francia: La quinta huelga contra la reforma de las pensiones propuesta por el presidente Sarkozy moviliza a casi 3 millones de personas en más de 220 concentraciones en todo el país. 2015.-El Gobierno colombiano y las FARC alcanzan en La Habana un acuerdo histórico sobre justicia trasnacional y desarme. 2019: El turoperador británico Thomas Cook entra en suspensión de pagos.

Canarias, segunda comunidad con menor esperanza de vida en España: 82,8 años frente a los 84 de la media nacional. El Archipiélago canario solo supera a Andalucía y queda fuera del grupo de las 50 regiones más longevas de Europa, según un estudio de Funcas. En el extremo opuesto, la Comunidad de Madrid lidera la clasificación nacional, con una esperanza de vida de 86,1 años, muy por encima de la media española. Le siguen Navarra y Castilla y León, situadas entre las regiones europeas con mayor longevidad. En total, 15 comunidades autónomas españolas aparecen en el ranking de las 50 regiones más longevas de Europa. Canarias y Andalucía son las únicas que no logran entrar en esa lista, junto a las ciudades autónomas de Ceuta (81,3 años) y Melilla (81,6 años). La esperanza de vida depende de múltiples factores, entre ellos la alimentación, el sistema sanitario, los hábitos de vida, el entorno socioeconómico y las condiciones ambientales. En el caso de Canarias, diferentes estudios han señalado la prevalencia de enfermedades crónicas, como la diabetes o los problemas cardiovasculares, así como la incidencia de la obesidad, como posibles causas que pueden estar influyendo en estas cifras. Desesperación entre los cosecheros por las dificultades para vender la papa ‘del país’ debido a las importadas de Reino Unido, Israel y Egipto. Tubérculo de Reino Unido, con entradas a buen ritmo, y existencias de Egipto e Israel impiden que un millón de kilos almacenados en Tenerife hallen salida, pese a la caída del precio mayorista a 0,60 euros/kilo, muy lejos del valor remunerativo de la papa local, en un euro. El Gobierno canario apoya “con ilusión” la candidatura de Las Palmas a Capital Cultural Europea 2031. El presidente regional, Fernando Clavijo, y la consejera de Cultura, Migdalia Machín, subrayan que esta iniciativa refuerza la proyección cultural de las Islas en la UE.

In December of 1970, Pakistan held its first ever democratic elections, paving way for a historic result as the East Pakistan-based Awami League, headed by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, won a national majority in parliament. But what was also historic about this moment, was the fact that it lighted the fuse for one of the worst events in recent human memory. Just three months later in March of 1971, Pakistan military would begin Operation Searchlight, raiding upon the East Pakistan capital on Dhaka, and slaughtering thousands of students, teachers, politicians, and opposing military all in one night.

The US president, Donald Trump, has made public the tariffs he intends to slap on imports from another group of countries, including Brazil, from the start of August. The chipmaker Nvidia has become the first company in the world to reach a market value of $4tn on Wednesday. David Harper hears from experts. And Donald Trump has said the United States is shifting from aid to trade in its relationship with Africa as he welcomed five presidents from the continent to the White House.Throughout the programme, David will be joined by two guests on opposite sides of the world – Zyma Islam, Senior Reporter at the Daily Star in Dhaka in Bangladesh, and Silicon Valley journalist and author Mike Malone in California in the USA.

A BBC investigation has found that the former prime minister of Bangladesh, Sheikh Hasina, authorised her security forces to use lethal force against protestors last summer. The evidence is a leaked tape verified by the BBC. An estimated 1,400 people were killed and 12,000 injured during the student protests against a new law restricting access to government jobs. Also in the programme: has Donald Trump lost his patience with Vladimir Putin – and how is the Russian president responding? And as it's announced that the Bayeux Tapestry will be loaned to the UK next year, more than 900 years after its creation, we ask: is it actually coming home?(IMAGE: Former prime minister Sheikh Hasina, chief of opposition Bangladesh Awami League, speaks at a rally in Dhaka on March 7, 2002 / CREDIT: Reuters/Rafiqur Rahman/NA/CP/File Photo)

UN describes Gaza as 'hungriest place on earth' "The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs has described Gaza as “the hungriest place on earth,” calling for immediate access to aid deliveries. Spokesperson Jens Laerke said nearly 180,000 pallets of food and life-saving supplies are ready to enter but remain blocked, despite being cleared and paid for. Israel has prevented food aid from entering the enclave since March, worsening the humanitarian crisis. " Israel kills five more aid workers in Gaza "Five aid workers from the Istanbul-based IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation, working with the UN World Food Programme, have been killed in recent Israeli attacks on Gaza, the organisation announced. Two others were seriously wounded in the strikes over the past two days. IHH confirmed the deaths in a statement on X, condemning the attacks by Israeli forces." Russia proposes second round of direct talks with Ukraine in Istanbul on Monday "Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov announced Moscow has formally proposed June 2 as the date for a second round of direct talks with Ukraine in Istanbul. The proposal follows initial negotiations held on May 16 in the same city. Lavrov credited Türkiye, United States and Saudi Arabia for helping create the conditions to resume the dialogue." US court blocks Trump's tariffs from going into effect "A US trade court has blocked President Donald Trump's ""Liberation Day"" tariffs, ruling he exceeded his authority by imposing broad duties on imports from trade-surplus nations. The Court of International Trade stated that only Congress holds the constitutional power to regulate foreign commerce, which cannot be overridden by presidential emergency powers. The judges emphasised that the decision was based on legal limits, not the effectiveness of the tariff strategy." Bangladesh sends first mango shipment to China as ties with India sour "Bangladesh sent its first consignment of mangoes to China, a symbolic move marking deepening ties with Beijing following strained relations with India. The export comes as China courts Dhaka in the wake of the 2024 uprising that ousted former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who later fled to New Delhi. China's ambassador hailed the shipment as a “historic moment,” standing alongside Bangladeshi officials during the send-off."

Nvidia, a huge success in the tech world, reported its latest quarterly earnings. The chipmaker, vying with Apple for the position of the world's richest company, beat expectations despite export controls. Elon Musk, , the billionaire and co-founder and CEO of Tesla, has criticised one of the signature policies of President Donald Trump, marking a break from the US president who he helped to win re-election in 2024. And the meat of brown bears, a protected species in the EU, could soon be available to eat in Slovakia after the populist government approved plans for sale.

In Dhaka, Bangladesh, artist Bishwajit Goswami creates a powerful new installation that captures the spirit of his homeland's rivers, lifelines darkened by pollution, yet still full of energy, beauty, and memory. Reporter Sahar Zand follows Bishwajit as he prepares for a major international exhibition in Paris. From his artist-led rooftop community space in a former tannery, to the crowded, chaotic riverbanks of Dhaka, Sahar traces the origins of a deeply personal artwork shaped by conversations, rituals, and found materials gathered along the river's edge.

My mother, Gretchen Elizabeth Wetzel, was born in Glendive Montana in 1949. Her mother's family had arrived in covered wagons in Willow Creek Valley in 1891. But this is not where the traveling ended. After moving to Missoula, my grandfather was hired by the Ford Foundation as an educational adviser for the Pakistani Government to set up pilot schools in East Pakistan. My mom was fifteen, when her family moved to Dhaka (at that time East Pakistan, now Bangladesh). Since there was no high school for her, she was sent to a boarding school in New Delhi. It was her first, but certainly not last, big adventure. When I look at my mom's life, I think of my Grandma's quilt, every piece of fabric tells its own story. My mom has lived in the most breathtaking places of Montana, behind mud walls in an Indian village, New York, Hamburg, Berlin, Valencia, and the quaint little village of Beyenburg, where I was born. Her life has been everything but boring. One of my earliest memories is seeing her as a child, her gorgeous brown braid cascading down her shoulder, thinking she looked like a queen. It is truly an honor to share her story with you. https://flatheadbeacon.com/e-edition/12_03_2020/mobile/index.html#p=76https://dailyinterlake.com/news/2018/mar/15/betty-wetzel-102-6/

BBC health correspondent James Gallagher investigates how our noisy world is damaging our health. He finds out why noise increases our risk of health problems, like heart attacks, sleep problems and anxiety, and can even affect how long we live. James spends two days in Barcelona – one of the noisiest cities in Europe – to meet the people whose health is being ruined by noise and the scientists and doctors trying to solve the problem. He also visits London to be experimented on in a lab to find out how noise changes the body, and hears from Dhaka, capital of Bangladesh, one of the loudest places on the planet.
