Gaza: Aid teams push to step up support as rain and cold take hold UN aid teams have been responding to torrential rains and cold in Gaza by focusing on helping the most vulnerable people in the wartorn enclave. Newborns and people living in areas prone to flooding are most at risk but efforts are underway to boost the number of winter clothing kits for children. Speaking from Al Mawasi in Gaza, Jonathan Cricx from the UN Children's Fund, UNICEF, described how overnight downpours had soaked the clothes and mattresses of many living in makeshift tents: “Those children, they're really suffering not only from the rain, but as well from the cold temperature. It's 6°C or 7°C in the Gaza Strip...What we are doing with UNICEF is we're trying to bring a lot of winter clothes…We also brought shoes. We brought 8,000 tents. We brought 600,000 blankets. But all this is far from being enough because we have more than 1.5 million people here who are in dire need for humanitarian aid.” Residents have been given empty flour sacks to fill with sand to keep rising waters at bay, while it's estimated that more than 760 displacement sites hosting about 850,000 people face the highest risk of flooding. Around 200 families living on the Gaza shoreline in high-risk areas were also being helped on Thursday to relocate to “what remains of Hamad city in eastern Khan Younis”, according to the UN aid coordination office, OCHA. Gaza's humanitarian crisis continues, however, as humanitarians report that a key water pipeline is now damaged and out of service. Until last week, Bani Suhaila Mekorot channel supplied around 16,000 cubic metres of drinking water per day to Khan Younis. Fear and uncertainty in DR Congo amid heavy fighting Renewed heavy fighting in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo has killed scores of civilians and uprooted communities who've fled in fear. UN aid coordinators OCHA has warned of “intense” clashes multiple territories, including Uvira, Walungu, Mwenga and Kalehe. So far, more than 200,000 people have been displaced across South Kivu; most are sheltering in unsafe and overcrowded sites where the risk of disease is high. With more details, here's Deputy Spokesperson for the Secretary-General, Farhan Haq, speaking in New York on Wednesday: “The humanitarian impact of the crisis is now spilling across borders. Between December 5th and 8th, nearly 25,000 people crossed into Burundi, including Congolese nationals, Burundian returnees and third-country migrants – with additional arrivals also reported in Rwanda.” The violence has disrupted aid assistance severely and forced the UN World Food Programme to suspend its activities across South Kivu. This has left 25,000 people without lifesaving food assistance, while host families share the last of their own reserves with displaced families, the agency said. The UN's presence in DR Congo is limited; MONUSCO – the peacekeeping mission - is no longer deployed in South Kivu, while a Human Rights Council inquiry into serious abuses in the country has been left unstaffed because of dire funding shortfalls. Venezuela's national guard linked to serious abuses, rights investigators say To Venezuela, where investigators appointed by the Human Rights Council alleged on Thursday that the country's Bolivarian National Guard carried out a decade of systematic and serious violations, including crimes against humanity. In a new report, the Independent International Fact-Finding Mission on Venezuela detailed evidence of what it called “systematic and coordinated repression”. According to the independent investigators, the national guard's actions appear to have been steered by a centralised command structure under President Nicolas Maduro.…
Cyril och Stig ringer upp journalisten Kassem Hamadé som befinner sig i Beirut. Han släppte nyligen boken Jakten på den försvunna imamen, den spektakulära berättelsen om hur han lyckades lösa en av Mellanösterns största gåtor: försvinnandet av imam Musa al-Sadr.En ledare som många menar hade kunnat förändra hela regionens historia, om han inte hade försvunnit spårlöst. Under arbetet med fallet blev Kassem både beskjuten och kidnappad, men vägrade ge upp. Hans granskning ledde till en kedja av avslöjanden som sträckte sig från Beirut till Tripoli: agenter med falska identiteter, gömda bårhus och vittnen som efter år av tystnad till slut började tala.Det är ett samtal om fallet med imamen, om makt, lögner och kampen om sanningen, men också om dagens Mellanöstern: om Iran, Libanon och Palestinakonflikten.

Möt Kassem Hamadé, utrikesreporter på Expressen och rapporterar regelbundet på TV4.Våren 2023 kidnappades den svenska journalisten Kassem Hamadé under en reportageresa till Libyen. Tillsammans med sina kollegor från BBC fördes han till ett hemligt fängelse, kastades i en isoleringscell och utsattes för mardrömslika förhör. Men varför?Kan svaret vara att Kassem var på väg att lösa en av Mellanösterns stora gåtor? Musa al-Sadr, en karismatisk shiamuslimsk ledare, försvann spårlöst 1978 under kriget i Libanon. I över fyra decennier har försvinnandet varit en del av regionens moderna mytologi, omgärdat av spekulationer och konspirationsteorier.Ett mysterium som har gäckat även Kassem.I Jakten på den försvunna imamen får vi ta del av Kassem Hamadés mångåriga arbete med fallet, följa med i jakten på en obekväm sanning som leder honom genom Libanon, Iran, Libyen och Italien. Just när han ska avslöja allt blir han kidnappad.Samt Även där poddar finns @youtube @acastsweden @spotifyswedenGillar du det vi gör och vill stötta oss gå isåfall gärna in och kom med förslag på gäster och innehåll.Glöm inte att prenumerera och tipsa om vår kanal!

Hugo Hamad, Head of AI/Gen AI Factory, AXA en France, ex-director of AI, Decathlon, points out a common pitfall in how organizations approach AI adoption. “Many companies invest in platforms, clusters, and big data without realizing that what we truly need are data engineers, ML engineers, and AI experts,” he explains.He continues, “Some businesses focus only on hiring data scientists. But in reality, we need much more than data scientists alone to deliver real value and build AI solutions.”According to Hugo, tech companies often emphasize practice and talent but neglect implementing the right AI technologies and tools. “To succeed, we must concentrate on three pillars: process, platform, and people. Only then can we deliver meaningful AI solutions, whether for clients or internal teams.”⚡ The AI equation isn't complete without balance: People + Process + Platform.Listen to the full podcast now- https://bit.ly/46iLetz#AI #MachineLearning #DataScience #FutureOfWork #TechInnovation #DigitalTransformation #Decathlon

WeTransfer x TalkArt special episode recorded live at Whitechapel Gallery. Recorded in front of a sold out live audience at @WhitechapelGallery we speak with @DominicJohnson and Jamal Butt to explore the current HAMAD BUTT exhibition: his life, art and legacy. ❤️ Thank you to @WePresent for organising this exciting event!Apprehensions is the first major survey of #HamadButt (b. 1962, Lahore, Pakistan; d. 1994, London, UK). One of the most innovative artists of his generation, Hamad Butt was a pioneer of intermedia art, bringing art into conversation with science, whilst also referencing his Queer and diasporic experiences. He offered a nuanced artistic response to the AIDS crisis in the UK, taking a conceptual rather than activist approach.Butt's conceptually and technically ambitious works seamlessly interweave popular culture, science, alchemy, science fiction, and social and cultural concerns, as forms that are simultaneously poetic and provocative. They imagine sex and desire in a time of ‘plague' as seductive yet frightening, intimate yet isolating, compelling yet dangerous – literally, in some cases, threatening to kill or injure.Born in Lahore, Pakistan, and raised in East London, Butt was British South Asian, Muslim by upbringing, and Queer. A contemporary of the Young British Artists, and their peer at Goldsmiths' College, London, Butt was described by art critics as epitomising the new ‘hazardism' in art of the 1990s, as his works often imply physical risk or endangerment.Follow: @WhitechapelGallery and @WePresent and check out WePresent today to see a series of never-before-seen artworks by Hamad, generously shared by Jamal.This episode is brought to you by our friends at WePresent, the Academy Award winningarts platform of WeTransfer.

We keep saying we want value-based care. But why do most models still fall short?In this episode, I sat down with Hamad Husainy, a clinician-turned-HealthTech leader at PointClickCare, to explore the hidden reasons value-based systems collapse—and what it actually takes to build one that works.We unpacked why data timing, team collaboration, and cultural transformation—not just more tech—are essential to seamless care. Hamad brought real stories from the field and shared where most leaders miss the mark when scaling their care ecosystems.The question isn't: do you have the data? It's: are you using it at the right time, in the right hands, to prevent the wrong outcomes?If you've ever felt like your solution should drive better results but doesn't get traction, this is your inside look at what investors, payers, and care leaders want next.
Under föreläsningen reflekterar Hussein Hamad över frågan:”Har vi anledning att vara hoppfulla trots vår tveklösa förestående död och om svaret är jakande, varför?”Hussein Hamad gräver djupt efter svar i Koranens mäktiga surat al-'Asr (Tiden) och går tillbaka till den romerska filosofen Seneca för paralleller till vad som botar hopplöshet och bidrar till ett meningsfullt kvarvarande hopp. Detta blir sista avsnittet för säsong 13. Vi är tillbaka med nya avsnitt den 11 augusti 2025, inshAllah.
Poverty is a key driver of health disparities. But numerous policies have been shown to help alleviate poverty and improve health equity, according to Dr. Rita Hamad, associate professor of social and behavioral sciences at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Hamad says policymakers need to look upstream and identify the root causes of health issues. “And really recognizing that poverty is one of the major root causes of those issues, and that if we don't address that… those health issues are just going to keep arising and not getting any better,” she says. On this episode of the Health Disparities podcast, Hamad speaks with Movement Is Life's Dr. Charla Johnson about evidence-based policies for alleviating poverty — like the child tax credit, earned income tax credit — and explains how healthcare systems can get more involved in bolstering the social safety net.

In this episode, we discuss instrumental variables with Dr. Rita Hamad of Harvard's TH Chan School of Public Health. This episode is focused on the first part of Chapter 28 of Modern Epidemiology 4th edition on quasi experimental methods. We start with what quasi experimental designs are and why we would want to use them (and whether more epidemiologists are being exposed to them). We also talk about why these methods are more common in economics than in epi. We talk about how these methods try to take advantage of something that approximates randomization to estimate causal effects. We talk about what instrumental variables are and the conditions required to be met for a variable to be an instrument. We focus on the strengths and limitations of the methods and when they make the most sense to use them. We talk about what happens when you violate the assumptions of IV. We talk about weak and strong IVs and we talk about Mendelian randomization and its role in epi. And we ask the age-old question, how do you find the elusive instrumental variable?

2024 European Film Awards - Small Things Like These at the Pavilion Theatre - Hamad Butt
Kate Middleton is set to take on her most significant royal duty since completing chemotherapy treatment earlier this year. Buckingham Palace has confirmed her participation in the state visit of the Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, and his first wife, Sheikha Jawaher bint Hamad bin Suhaim Al Thani, next week.Our Royal Insider Deep Crown has been observing that all of Kate's appearances have been controlled events. Deep Crown tells Palace Intrigue, “The carefully structured nature of this appearance - a highly formal state visit with clear protocols and predictable photo opportunities - fits perfectly into what appears to be a strategy of controlled,choreographed engagements for Kate. Particularly notable is the specific clarification that she won't attend the evening state banquet - this kind of advance limitation of duties suggests the Palace is being extremely selective about her exposure and energy expenditure. The combination of the formal daytime ceremonies (where she can be photographed looking well in a structured setting) with a clear boundary around evening commitments shows how meticulously they're managing both her recovery and public perception.This ties into a broader pattern we've seen with her limited recent appearances, such as the Remembrance events, which were similarly formal and controlled in nature”Meanwhile, Harry and Meghan will find themselves on opposite sides of the United States as they both make high-profile appearances. On Wednesday, December 4, Meghan is expected to attend a glamorous Hollywood event in Beverly Hills, celebrating her friend Tyler Perry, who is being honoured with The Paley Honors Award. Both Harry and Meghan are listed on the hosting committee for the evening, but Harry won't be in attendance.Instead, Prince Harry will be in New York City, where he's scheduled to speak at The New York Times DealBook Conference. While the couple has become known for their unified front, their separate commitments next week underscore their individual endeavors on opposite coasts.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

A selection of excerpts from the texts Tamhidát and Laváyeh by Ayn-al-Qużāt Hamadānī . Translated by Ali Yansori - with thanks to Ali for gifting this beautiful translation. Ayn-al-Qużāt Hamadānī (1098–1131) (Persian: عین القضات همدانی), was a Persian jurisconsult, mystic, philosopher, poet and mathematician who was executed by the Seljuk rulers at the age of 33 on charges of heresy. He is one of the many overlooked figures of the pre-modern Islamic tradition. Born in Hamadhan in Seljuk Iran to a family of prominent Shāfi'ī scholars, by the age of 20 he had mastered Arabic, Persian, jurisprudence, ḥadīth, Qur'ān, poetry, kalām (dialectical theology), philosophy and various strands of mystical thought. A student of Aḥmad al-Ghazālī he became an eminent scholar and mystic in his own right, composing various works in both Persian and Arabic, the most important of which were Tamhīdāt and the Zubdat al-Haqāʾiq fī Kashf al-Khalāʾiq. Much of his mystical philosophy was focused on the concept of divine love.

On Saturday, four hostages - Noa Argamani, Shlomi Ziv, Almog Meir Jan and Andrey Kozlov - were heroically rescued by the Israeli security forces, and safely brought home alive. Still, 120 hostages remain in Gaza - 43 of whom have already been declared dead - and the pressure to sign a deal that will bring them home is mounting from day to day. Such a deal, of course, has two sides: We tend to focus on what we stand to get, i.e. the hostages. To many, that's really all that matters. But there are also those who emphasize the other side - what we'd be forced to give, the price we'd need to pay and the people we'd need to release. Our episode today brings us that part of the story. Moriah Cohen is 29 years old. She and her family are part of the small Jewish settlement of Shimon HaTzadik, inside the predominantly Palestinian neighborhood of Sheikh Jarah in East Jerusalem. For years this neighborhood has been a focal point of legal battles, demonstrations and violent clashes between Israelis and Palestinians. On December 8th, 2021, Moriah was stabbed right outside her home. Her attacker was Nafoz Hamad, her next door neighbor's 14-year-old daughter. Hamad was apprehended, tried and sentenced to 12 years in prison. But then, in November 2023, as part of the prisoner swap between Israel and the Hamas that brought 80 Israeli hostages back home, she was set free. And not only was she released, Hamad moved back home, right across the street from her victim, Moriah. We visited Moriah in her home, and talked about this complicated and utterly surreal reality.Maya Thomas is our dubber.The end song is Hacheder Ha'Intimi Sheli ("My Intimate Room") by Taarovet Eskot. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
BlazeTV contributor Jaco Booyens and Glenn Beck's chief writer and researcher, Jason Buttrill, join the show to discuss Hamas official Ghazi Hamad's interview with a Lebanon news channel during which Hamad vowed to attack Israel again and again until Israel no longer exists. Hamad defended Hamas' actions that claimed the lives of over 1,400 Israelis on October 7. Hamad declared: "Israel is a country that has no place on our (Palestine's) land." President Biden claims he will veto a stand-alone funding bill for Israel. The Office of Management and Budget said, “This bill is bad for Israel, for the Middle East region, and for our own national security.” This budget bill would decouple the money from Ukraine funding and border aid. Patrick Dai, 21, a self-identified “Hamas fighter” who was busted for allegedly threatening to kill Jews at Cornell University, had his first day in court today. According to the indictment, Dai allegedly threatened to “bring an assault rifle to campus” and “rape and kill all the Jew women before they birth more Jewish Hitlers." Chairman of the Oversight Committee Rep. James Comer unveiled a $40,000 direct payment to Joe Biden from 2017 labeled as a "loan repayment" that he claims is "laundered money" that can be traced back to the Chinese. Former President Donald Trump's legal team is back in court in Colorado trying to defend their client as the state tries to take his name off the 2024 GOP presidential ballot.
