L'iftar tra le macerie circola nelle stesse ore in cui la parola “ricostruzione” viene pronunciata nei palazzi. Una famiglia palestinese stende una tovaglia sopra i detriti della propria casa distrutta, divide pane e zuppa mentre alle spalle restano ferri piegati e cemento frantumato. La scena racconta più di qualunque vertice internazionale. Sul terreno la cosiddetta tregua continua a perdere pezzi. Amnesty International Italia e Greenpeace Italia, davanti a Palazzo Chigi e alla Farnesina, hanno denunciato oltre 600 palestinesi uccisi dall'avvio del cessate il fuoco del 9 ottobre 2025, tra cui più di 100 bambini, e almeno 1.620 violazioni registrate fino al 10 febbraio 2026 tra raid aerei, colpi di artiglieria e sparatorie. I numeri sono contenuti nei loro documenti diffusi il 19 febbraio. Intanto il ministero della Difesa israeliano ribadisce, con dichiarazioni riprese da Anadolu Agency, che le forze resteranno nella “zona di sicurezza” di Gaza senza limiti temporali. Sullo sfondo, lo studio pubblicato su The Lancet Global Health e ripreso da Reuters il 19 febbraio stima 75.200 morti violente tra il 7 ottobre 2023 e il 5 gennaio 2025. Il 56,2% appartiene a donne, bambini e anziani: circa 42 mila persone. È una fotografia statistica che attraversa governi e conferenze, e che resta sul tavolo mentre si discute di gestione internazionale della Striscia. La Cisgiordania aggiunge un altro capitolo. Reuters riferisce dell'uccisione di un diciannovenne palestinese con cittadinanza statunitense vicino a Ramallah, in un episodio attribuito a coloni israeliani. Versioni divergenti, indagini annunciate, tensione che sale. Tra i comunicati sul futuro di Gaza e le immagini delle tende, la distanza resta misurabile. La famiglia che rompe il digiuno tra i calcinacci continua a vivere dentro quella distanza.

Le nombre de morts causé par la guerre à Gaza n'est toujours pas connu. Malgré le cessez-le-feu, l'enclave reste coupée du monde par les autorités israéliennes. Une équipe de scientifiques a cependant réussi à mener une enquête de terrain indépendante publiée dans la revue The Lancet Global Health. Elle révèle un chiffre bien plus élevé que ceux annoncés par les autorités locales. Alors que le ministère de la Santé de Gaza avait annoncé 49 000 morts durant les seize premiers mois après le début de l'offensive israélienne, l'équipe de scientifiques de l'université Royal Holloway estime que le chiffre réel serait plutôt autour de 75 000 morts. RFI a interviewé le directeur de cette étude, Michael Spagat, également président de l'ONG Every casualty counts. RFI : Vous révélez donc que le nombre de victimes durant les seize premiers mois de la guerre dépasse largement les chiffres donnés par le gouvernement du Hamas...  Michael Spagat : La meilleure estimation que nous ayons se trouve autour des 70 000 morts. Le chiffre réel pourrait être plus bas ou plus élevé. Mais au-delà du chiffre exact, ce qu'il faut surtout souligner, c'est que le nombre réel de morts est nettement supérieur aux chiffres officiels donnés par le ministère de la Santé de Gaza. C'est le principal point à retenir. Il y a une sous-évaluation importante de la part du ministère de la Santé. Nous estimons que la différence est de 35%. Comment avez-vous travaillé pour documenter ces décès ?  C'est une approche statistique, très similaire aux sondages d'opinion publique. Nous avons donc un échantillon aléatoire de foyers à Gaza. Nous établissons ensuite une liste de tous les membres du foyer au 6 octobre 2023, puis renseignons le sort de chacun, en particulier s'ils sont vivants ou morts. Et le principe essentiel est que si « X pour cent » des personnes couvertes par l'échantillon sont mortes, alors nous extrapolons pour estimer que ce même « X pour cent » de la population totale de Gaza est mort. Vous avez donc travaillé sur le terrain et non pas avec des documents venus d'hôpitaux ou d'autorités locales ?  C'est ça. Nous n'avons pas du tout utilisé les archives officielles. L'un des points principaux était que notre travail soit totalement indépendant du ministère de la Santé de Gaza, car certains ont remis en question la véracité de ces chiffres. Notre étude n'a donc rien à voir avec les données du ministère de la Santé de Gaza. Et même si je n'étais pas personnellement sur le terrain pour l'étude, le partenaire palestinien de ce projet a des travailleurs de terrain situés à Gaza et ils ont mené le travail de terrain. L'enquête a donc été menée par des Palestiniens qui vivent à Gaza. Ils font donc partie de la vie et de la culture là-bas. Est-ce que vous pensez que cela peut changer quelque chose à la manière dont les gens ont répondu ?  Je pense que le plus grand effet est que les gens étaient prêts à répondre aux questions parce que, bien sûr, personne n'est obligé de participer à une enquête. Et, il se pourrait que si des gens complètement extérieurs entrent, ils soient perçus avec suspicion et que les gens préfèrent ne pas répondre. Je ne pense pas que la présence de Gazaouis natifs influence les réponses, étant donné qu'ils répondent effectivement au questionnaire, mais nous avons obtenu un taux de réponse très élevé, et je pense que cela s'explique probablement par la nature des équipes d'entretien que nous avons utilisées. La question du décompte des morts à Gaza est très sensible. Il aura fallu du temps mais l'armée israélienne a fini par reconnaître que le bilan du Hamas était globalement juste, en précisant que la majorité des victimes n'étaient pas des civils. Ce n'est pas forcément ce que dit le Hamas... Les autorités sanitaires de Gaza ne font en réalité pas de distinction entre civils et combattants. Et ils ont raison car ils n'ont pas vraiment de base probatoire pour cela. Lorsque quelqu'un arrive et meurt à l'hôpital, comment savoir s'il était combattant ?  Ils n'ont pas d'information de qualité sur cette question. Et nous n'avons pas non plus d'informations directes à ce sujet. Nous ne demandons pas aux gens de dire si les personnes qu'ils signalent comme mortes étaient des combattants ou des civils. Nous avons donc sûrement un mélange de combattants et de civils. Cependant, je pense que ce que l'on peut dire en se basant sur le mélange démographique, c'est-à-dire le mélange d'âge et de sexe des personnes tuées, c'est qu'un très grand pourcentage était certainement des civils. Les autorités sanitaires de Gaza évoquent plus de 570 morts depuis le cessez-le-feu entré en vigueur en octobre dernier – ce n'est pas fini, on meurt encore à Gaza. C'est vrai. Et il est important de souligner que notre période de couverture ne s'étend que jusqu'au 5 janvier 2025. Donc nous avons un peu plus d'un an de retard à ce stade. Et beaucoup de gens sont morts après la fin de notre enquête. Mais oui, ce n'est certainement pas fini. Il y a, en principe, un cessez-le-feu, mais il y a néanmoins un flot constant de morts violentes. Vous travaillez à établir le nombre de victimes de guerre depuis des décennies, dans de nombreux conflits. Est-ce que Gaza diffère d'autres guerres, selon vous ? Gaza se distingue par le grand pourcentage de la population qui a été tuée en si peu de temps. Et bien que ce ne soit pas complètement unique, le pourcentage de femmes, d'enfants et de personnes âgées parmi les morts est exceptionnellement élevé. Il faudra probablement revenir à des conflits comme le génocide rwandais ou le génocide cambodgien pour obtenir de tels chiffres. Cela dit, nous n'avons pas de mesures parfaites pour chaque conflit. Il peut y en avoir d'autres qui comptaient aussi des pourcentages élevés de femmes, d'enfants et de personnes âgées. Mais au moins dans les archives documentées, il ressort sur ce point-là.

In the 1990s, UN sanctions imposed on Iraq led to a humanitarian crisis, with reports of a rapid increase in excess mortality, especially among children. In the early 2000s, policymakers responded to this crisis by vowing to use “smart sanctions” in the future, measures that would target elites while sparing civilians, thereby limiting the humanitarian harms of economic coercion. The perception that today's sanctions are “smart” has contributed to the rapid increase in their use over the last two decades.But a new paper, titled “Effects of International Sanctions on Age-Specific Mortality: A Cross-National Panel Data Analysis” and published in the prestigious journal The Lancet Global Health suggests that even today, sanctions continue to have devastating humanitarian impacts. Drawing on data from 152 countries over fifty years, the paper estimates that unilateral sanctions—particularly those imposed by the United States—are associated with over half a million excess deaths each year. The paper's findings demand a fundamental reassessment of the humanitarian impacts of today's sanctions regimes.Francisco Rodríguez is the Rice Family Professor of the Practice at the Josef Korbel School at the University of Denver. Francisco is one of the co-authors of the paper, along with Silvio Rendón, and Mark Weisbrot.The Sanctions Age is hosted by Esfandyar Batmanghelidj.

A groundbreaking new study published in the British medical journal The Lancet Global Health finds that unilateral economic sanctions—most of which are imposed by the United States—lead to approximately 564,000 excess deaths worldwide each year. Up to half of these deaths are children. While sanctions are often touted as an alternative to military force, this research shows they can devastate public health, cause severe food and medicine shortages, and drive mortality rates to levels comparable to those seen in armed conflicts. In fact, the findings suggest that sanctions are about as deadly as military conflicts around the world each year. Joining me to discuss this new study is one of its authors, Mark Weisbrot of the Center for Economic and Policy Research. We begin by examining his key findings and then explore how and why sanctions end up killing so many people globally. https://www.globaldispatches.org/40PercentOff Mark Weisbrot's research.   

In this episode, we tear away the euphemisms and expose a grim reality: sanctions kill. Drawing on a 2025 study from The Lancet Global Health, we show how economic sanctions imposed by the U.S. and other powers are responsible for up to 777,000 deaths each year, with children and the elderly most at risk.We trace the history of sanctions from the League of Nations to Iraq, Venezuela, Iran, and beyond. We compare sanctions to siege warfare—and ask why a practice this deadly continues to be framed as humane diplomacy.We also confront the legal and moral implications: Could sanctions qualify as crimes against humanity? And if so, why is the international community silent?This episode is not about hypotheticals. It's about the numbers, the law, and the lives.*****STOP PRESS*****I only ever talk about history on this podcast but I also have another life, yes, that of aspirant fantasy author and if that's your thing you can get a copy of my debut novel The Blood of Tharta, right here:Help the podcast to continue bringing you history each weekIf you enjoy the Explaining History podcast and its many years of content and would like to help the show continue, please consider supporting it in the following ways:If you want to go ad-free, you can take out a membership hereOrYou can support the podcast via Patreon hereOr you can just say some nice things about it here Hosted on Acast.

Senior Director of Nutrition Research Maciej Chichlowski shares and interprets results from a large scale study on nutritional inadequacies, Global Estimation of Dietary Micronutrient Inadequacies, published in the October 2024 issue of Lancet Global Health, Volume 12, Issue 10, e1590 - e1599. 

Senior Director of Nutrition Research Maciej Chichlowski shares and interprets results from a large scale study on nutritional inadequacies, Global Estimation of Dietary Micronutrient Inadequacies, published in the October 2024 issue of Lancet Global Health, Volume 12, Issue 10, e1590 - e1599. 

 In the latest episode of Daily Value, we dive into the global crisis of micronutrient inadequacies, based on research published in The Lancet Global Health. This study provides the first-ever global estimates on inadequate consumption of 15 essential micronutrients, revealing widespread deficiencies impacting billions of people.Talking Points:Widespread Deficiencies: 68% of the global population lacks sufficient iodine intake, 67% are deficient in vitamin E, and 66% in calcium. Iron, riboflavin, folate, and vitamin C deficiencies also affect over 4 billion people worldwide.Gender Disparities: Women and men are disproportionately impacted by different micronutrient deficiencies.Health Impacts: These deficiencies are linked to cognitive impairment, weakened immune systems, and increased risks of chronic diseases.We discuss the public health implications of these deficiencies and provide insights into strategies like dietary diversification, food fortification, and micronutrient supplementation to tackle this growing issue.https://www.thelancet.com/journals/langlo/article/PIIS2214-109X(24)00276-6/fulltextSupport the show

A recent study published in the journal The Lancet Global Health, brought out a staggering figure – almost half of all Indians are not sufficiently physically active. Between 2000 and 2022, the number of adults who engaged in insufficient physical activity increased from a little over 22% to 49.4%. Women were found to be more physically inactive than men. Across the world, South Asia was ranked second highest in the number of adults being insufficiently active, after the high-income Asia-Pacific region, which came first. World over, about 1/3 of all adults, 31.3% were not sufficiently physically active, and if this trend continues, researchers said, the target of reducing physical inactivity by 15% globally by 2030, will not be met. An adequate amount of exercise has for long been known to help prevent multiple non-communicable diseases including hypertension, diabetes and heart disease, and is known to promote mental well being. India holds the dubious rank of being one of the top countries in the world when it comes to obesity and diabetes and a high burden of heart and yet the amount of physical activity Indians do, is decreasing. Why are Indians not exercising enough? What amounts to an adequate amount of physical activity for an adult per week? How is the lack of exercise going to affect the massive burden of non-communicable diseases in India? And what can be done to encourage physical activity at schools, communities and in offices?

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things for the Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.It's the 26th of June and here are today's headlines.Lok Sabha MP Om Birla was elected as Lok Sabha Speaker today by a voice vote for the second time in a row. The Opposition did not press for a division of votes and pro-tem Speaker Bhartruhari Mahtab declared Birla as elected, saying the “ayes have it”. With Birla's election, Mahtab said, the other motions to propose and second the candidature of K Suresh became infructuous. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who the Congress has named Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, congratulated Birla as he took charge.Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal addressed the Court asserting that CBI sources fabricated information in the media. He clarified, quote “I have not made any statement holding Sisodia responsible. Yesterday, I made it clear that neither AAP nor Sisodia can be blamed.” Unquote. These developments follow arguments in court regarding the CBI's arrest of the AAP leader. The Supreme Court today, allowed him to withdraw his plea against the High Court's interim stay on the trial court's bail order in the ED case.A day after Nationalist Congress Party (SP) chief Sharad Pawar said that his party's doors would remain open to MLAs who had sided with Ajit Pawar, the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) hit back today, saying that it showed the desperation of a party struggling to find leaders to contest the upcoming Assembly elections in Maharashtra. NCP spokesperson Umesh Patil told The Indian Express today, quote, “Sharad Pawar saheb's party is saddled with a handful of MLAs and he is now looking for leaders who will contest on its ticket,” Unquote.According to new data published in the Lancet Global Health, half the adult Indian population does not meet the World Health Organisation's guidelines on sufficient physical activity. More women (57 per cent) than men (42 per cent men) are physically inactive. Most alarmingly, the prevalence of insufficient physical activity among Indian adults has risen sharply from 22.3 per cent in 2000 to 49.4 per cent in 2022. This means unchecked, 60 per cent of our population would be unfit by 2030 and at risk of disease from not doing enough physical activity.WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange returned to his homeland Australia aboard a charter jet today, hours after pleading guilty to obtaining and publishing US military secrets in a deal with Justice Department prosecutors that concludes a drawn-out legal saga. The criminal case of international intrigue, which had played out for years, came to a surprise end in a most unusual setting with Assange, entering his plea in a US district court in Saipan, the capital of the Northern Mariana Islands. The American commonwealth in the Pacific is relatively close to Assange's native Australia and accommodated his desire to avoid entering the continental United States.This was the Catch-Up on the 3 Things by The Indian Express.

There's a virus that infects just about every adult. It's passed by skin-to-skin contact – most often during sexual intercourse. It's the human papillomavirus (HPV for short). It often doesn't show any symptoms, and at times the infection resolves on its own.  It can cause warts, but more ominously, HPV is the single biggest cause of cervical cancer. It's also a factor in common cancers of the head and neck, as well as cancers of the anus and penis. It's the main reason most adult women must undergo regular Pap smears, which work well to catch the changes that can lead to cancer while still treatable. But there's no Pap smear for the mouth and throat, and none for the anus or penis either.  So the invention of a vaccine that prevents cancers caused by HPV should have people running to get it. It has been proven very safe and effective. According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, infections with the strains of HPV that cause cancers and genital warts have dropped 88 percent in vaccinated teen girls, and 81 percent among vaccinated young women.While vaccination has focused on girls, boys and men suffer from and spread this infection. A study in the Lancet Global Health found nearly a third of men and boys over the age of 15 are infected with at least one genital strain of HPV and one in five have a cancer-causing type.Studies show that the earlier teens get the vaccine against HPV, the better it protects them. But people are resisting it. Dr. Grace Ryan, assistant professor of population & quantitative health sciences at the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School, is looking at why people are hesitant to use this life-saving vaccine, and at how to get people to better understand its benefits.In this episode of One World, One Health, Dr. Ryan chats with host Maggie Fox about what she's found about HPV vaccine hesitancy.

How might Covid-19 disrupt treatment for other diseases? In this episode, I feature a paper by Hogan and colleagues who quantified the extent to which disruptions to services for HIV, tuberculosis and malaria in low and middle-income countries will lead to additional loss of life over the next 5 years. As we continue our efforts to mitigate Covid-19, we should also ensure that HIV, tuberculosis and malaria patients continue to have access to their treatments.   Full citation: Hogan AB, Jewell BL, Sherrard-Smith E, Vesga JF, Watson OJ, Whittaker C, Hamlet A, Smith JA, Winskill P, Verity R, Baguelin M.

Bri Christophers (she) is an aspiring physician-scientist interested in bringing social justice to the lab bench and hospital bedside. Born and raised in Miami, Bri found herself moving to New Jersey to attend Princeton University, where she fell in love with developmental biology while staring at fish hearts down a microscope in the lab of Rebecca Burdine, PhD. Much of her advocacy work as an undergraduate focused on amplifying the voices of Latinx, BIPOC*, and first-generation/low-income students through organizations like Princeton Latinos y Amigos, the Latinx Collective and initiatives like Project Welcome Mat: A Guide for First-Generation Students. Her work was recognized with the Frederick Douglass Service Award given during graduation ceremonies, the Spirit of Princeton Award, and the Santos-Dumont Award for Innovation. She continued her journey in developmental biology by working in the lab of Robert Heuckeroth, MD, PhD at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, moving from the heart to the enteric nervous system. Now as an MD-PhD student at Weill Cornell/Rockefeller/Sloan Kettering Tri-Institutional MD-PhD Program, she is pursuing graduate training with Mary Baylies, PhD, studying muscle development. Briana has continued to bring together her passion for scientific discovery and advocacy, serving as diversity representative on the Weill Cornell Medical Student Executive Committee, co-running the Association of Diverse Physician-Scientists in Training (ADePT), and developing the Mini Lessons by Medical Scientists video series aimed at introducing children and adolescents to physician-scientists. More recently, Bri has turned to writing as a way of communicating science and advancing social causes. Her works have been published in Academic Medicine, the Journal of Clinical Investigation, The Lancet Global Health, Pediatric Research, Scientific American, and in-Training magazine. She co-authored and was lead editor of “The Free Guide to Medical School Admissions,” an e-book in its second-edition available at tiny.cc/MedAppGuide. You can follow her reflections on being a Latina growing into a pediatrician-scientist on Twitter, where she is also the co-leader of @LatinasInMed and @MedStudentChat.
