I recently walked through two beautiful European cities with deep Jewish history. The synagogues still stand. The stories are remembered. But the Jewish communities themselves have largely disappeared. Hardly any Jews remain.In one of those cities, a local Jew was upset to see me wearing my kippah in public. “Why stand out?” he asked. He wasn't afraid for me — he was afraid for himself and the consequences he would face. Christians walk freely with their symbols. Muslims do the same. For Jews, hiding identity is treated as normal. That should never be accepted as normal.A Jewish restaurant in Montreal was just burned down. The arsonist was caught on camera. Authorities are investigating it as a hate crime. Across North America, Europe, and Australia, antisemitic attacks keep rising. Jewish schools need heavy security. Synagogues look like fortresses. Many Jews now hide Jewish symbols in public. Just a few years ago this was unnecessary. Today the warning signs are unmistakable. Jewish history is repeating itself.Yet at this exact moment, so much of the Jewish conversation is consumed by the latest blood libel: so-called “settler violence.” Analysis of the UN's own OCHA database shows that the vast majority of listed incidents do not involve Jewish settlers attacking anyone. The data includes jihadi attacks on Israelis, security-force incidents, property disputes, and more. After filtering, only a small fraction remains — and even that is heavily manipulated. The narrative redirects attention away from the real threat: a 1,400-year-old jihadi ideology that massacred Jews on October 7 and continues to target Jews worldwide.While Jews are attacked in Montreal, New York, London, Paris, and Sydney simply for being Jews, the focus stays on blaming Jews in Judea and Samaria. The greatest response to rising antisemitism is not more security systems. It is aliyah. It is returning home to Israel — the only place where Jewish identity is the air we breathe and the national calendar we live by.For 2,000 years Jews ended the Seder with “Next year in Jerusalem.” That prayer is no longer a dream. It is an airline ticket. History is speaking again. The question is whether we are ready to listen.Am Yisrael Chai.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMvFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/

DR Congo: New treatment centre set to open doors to Ebola patients: OCHA Gaza's families still struggling with massive food shortages: WFPSudan drone strike in North Darfur highlights huge needs @UNFPA 

ONU Info

À la veille de l'inauguration d'un nouveau centre de traitement contre Ebola dans le quartier de Rwankole, à Bunia, en République démocratique du Congo (RDC), Dr Sambo Sidikou, d'International Medical Corps, détaille les enjeux de cette nouvelle structure de 100 lits, destinée à renforcer la prise en charge des malades dans l'un des principaux foyers de l'épidémie.Dans cet entretien accordé à Priscilla Lecomte, du Bureau des Nations Unies pour la coordination des affaires humanitaires (OCHA), il explique pourquoi ce centre a été implanté à Rwankole, où les communautés voisines enregistrent un nombre croissant de cas.« Nous comptons sur la communauté pour pouvoir accélérer le processus d'identification des cas », souligne-t-il, insistant sur l'importance d'une détection précoce pour améliorer la prise en charge.Il revient également sur les risques particuliers qu'Ebola fait peser sur les femmes enceintes, ainsi que sur l'appui des partenaires de la riposte. Avec le soutien de l'agence des Nations Unies chargée des questons de santé sexuelle et reproductive, l'UNFPA, les patients reçoivent notamment des « kits de dignité » à leur sortie du centre, un moment marqué par une cérémonie célébrant leur guérison et leur retour dans la communauté. L'agence doit également fournir des lits et des tables d'accouchement destinés à la maternité spécialisée du centre.Propos recueillis par Priscilla Lecomte (OCHA) pour ONU Info.

En République démocratique du Congo, l'épidémie d'Ebola s'accélère à un rythme alarmant. En deux mois et demi, plus de 3.200 personnes ont été infectées, plus de 1.400 sont mortes et près de 580 ont guéri. Le nombre de cas double désormais tous les vingt jours.« L'épidémie d'Ebola progresse plus rapidement que notre réponse, et l'écart entre les deux continue de se creuser », alerte Julien Harneis, Coordonnateur principal des Nations Unies pour la riposte à Ebola.Dans cet extrait sonore, il décrit une riposte portée par une mobilisation collective exceptionnelle réunissant les autorités congolaises, les Nations Unies, les organisations humanitaires, les soignants, les volontaires et les communautés locales.Mais, prévient-il, cet engagement ne suffit plus à contenir un virus « impitoyable » qui continue de gagner du terrain. Il lance un appel à un sursaut de solidarité internationale. Propos recueillis par Priscilla Lecomte d'OCHA pour ONU Info.

Hii leo tunakuletea mada kwa kina. Mlipuko wa sasa wa ebola ya virusi vya Bundibugyo uliotangazwa rasmi huko DRC mwezi Mei mwaka huu unazidi kuongezeka kwa kasi isiyo ya kawaida, wamesema maafisa waandamizi wa Umoja wa Mataifa wakizungumza na waandishi wa habari Karl Skau, Kaimu Mkuu wa WFP, na ndio tunakupeleka nchini humo kufuatilia juhudi za kuudhibiti.Katibu Mkuu wa Umoja wa Mataifa António Guterres amesema ni wakati wa dunia kuungana kukabiliana na biashara haramu ya usafirishaji wa watu, hususan aina mpya inayokua kwa kasi ya kulazimishwa kufanya utapeli kwa njia ya mtandao. Katika ujumbe wake wa kuadhimisha Siku ya Kimataifa ya Kupambana na Biashara Haramu ya Usafirishaji wa Watu inayoadhimishwa kila mwaka tarehe thelathini Julai, amesema wahalifu wanawavutia watu kwa ahadi za ajira nzuri, lakini baadaye wanawafanya mateka na kuwalazimisha kuendesha utapeli mtandaoni. Guterres amezitaka nchi kuridhia Mkataba wa Umoja wa Mataifa wa Kupambana na Uhalifu wa Mtandao uliopitishwa mwaka 2024, kushirikiana kuvunja mitandao ya uhalifu na kuwasaidia manusura kurejea katika maisha yao ya kawaida.Nchini Ukraine, mashambulizi makubwa ya usiku yaliyojumuisha makombora na mamia ya ndege zisizo na rubani yamesababisha vifo na majeruhi katika maeneo kadhaa ya makazi, yakiwemo miji ya Kryvyi Rih, Kyiv na Lviv. Ofisi ya Umoja wa Mataifa ya Kuratibu Masuala ya Kibinadamu, OCHA, imesema nyumba na shule za awali zimeharibiwa huku watoto wakiwa miongoni mwa waliouawa na kujeruhiwa. Kwa upande wa Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kuhudumia Watoto, UNICEF, limesema watoto watatu wameuawa na wengine kadhaa kujeruhiwa, huku likiendelea kutoa msaada wa dharura wa kisaikolojia na usaidizi wa kifedha kwa familia zilizoathirika.Na Kamishna Mkuu wa Haki za Kibinadamu wa Umoja wa Mataifa, Volker Türk, amelaani hatua za serikali ya Uganda zinazodaiwa kuendelea kubana uhuru wa msingi na kuzima sauti za wanaokosoa serikali. Amesema tangu uchaguzi mkuu wa Januari mwaka huu, viongozi wa upinzani, wanaharakati wa haki za binadamu na waandishi wa habari wamekumbwa na vitendo vya kutoweshwa, kukamatwa kiholela na mateso. Kupitia taarifa iliyotolewa leo na ofisi ya Bwana Türk ni kwamba ofisi hiyo imepokea taarifa zinazoonesha kuongezeka kwa ushiriki wa jeshi katika kutekeleza majukumu ambayo kwa kawaida hufanywa na taasisi za kiraia. Aidha, baadhi ya vyombo vya habari vimelazimika kusitisha shughuli zake kwa muda.Katika kujifunza lugha ya Kiswahili, na leo tunamkaribisha Ntahombaye Hussein, Mwenyekiti wa Chama cha Wanahabari wa Kiswahili nchini Burundi, CHAWARUNDI.

Hii leo jaridani tunakuletea mada kwa kina. Kesho, Julai 9, ni miaka 15 tangu Sudan Kusini ipate uhuru wake kutoka Sudan. Hata hivyo, matumaini ya amani yalitikiswa miaka miwili baadaye, mwezi Desemba 2013, baada ya kuzuka kwa mapigano kati ya serikali na makundi pinzani, hali iliyoendelea kuwaathiri mamilioni ya wananchi hadi leo. Katika juhudi za kurejesha amani, Ujumbe wa Umoja wa Mataifa nchini humo, UNMISS, kwa ushirikiano na serikali ya jimbo la Equatoria Magharibi, umezindua kampeni mpya iitwayo "Tusikilizeni, Chukueni Hatua Sasa" (Hear Us, Act Now), inayolenga kuimarisha maridhiano, mshikamano wa kijamii na kuwahamasisha vijana kushiriki kikamilifu katika ujenzi wa amani.

Un blocco di cemento giallo, piantato accanto alle tende, decide a Beit Lahia chi può restare. Nella notte fra il 23 e il 24 giugno i carri israeliani avanzano verso il bivio di Al Atatra, un quadricottero sgancia una munizione incendiaria e brucia tre tende, e quando i mezzi si ritirano sei famiglie restano sfollate: il blocco ormai segna il confine. Lo racconta l'ufficio ONU per gli affari umanitari, OCHA, nel bollettino del 26 giugno. È la stessa linea gialla nata a ottobre per fermare il fuoco, e che da allora si sposta a ovest. Il 1° luglio l'Humanitarian Country Team dei territori palestinesi occupati, i capi delle agenzie ONU e delle organizzazioni non governative, mette i numeri. Le aree ad accesso ristretto coprono ora il 65 per cento della superficie di Gaza, l'accesso via mare resta vietato, e fra il 10 ottobre e inizio aprile le Nazioni Unite hanno verificato 196 palestinesi uccisi vicino alle posizioni israeliane, fra loro 18 donne e 43 bambini. L'ufficio ONU per i diritti umani annota che lungo quella linea la forza letale è stata usata "spesso". Intanto Benjamin Netanyahu, primo ministro israeliano, controlla il 60 per cento della Striscia e ha ordinato all'esercito di arrivare al 70. La mappa del cessate il fuoco di ottobre fissava quel controllo al 53 per cento. Il capo di stato maggiore Eyal Zamir, il 7 dicembre, davanti ai soldati, l'aveva già detto senza giri: «La linea gialla è una nuova linea di confine, una linea difensiva avanzata per le comunità e una linea offensiva». Una "tregua" che si misura in metri conquistati. Del resto il parere consultivo della Corte internazionale di giustizia del 19 luglio 2024 lo scrive nero su bianco: l'occupazione israeliana è illegale, nessun territorio si acquisisce con la forza. Il blocco di cemento resta dov'è. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

Five days after two deadly earthquakes struck north-central Venezuela, the UN says the emergency is far from over. With search-and-rescue operations continuing, Vanessa May, Head of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) in the stricken South American nation, told UN News's Victoria Fernandez that families who have lost their homes and loved ones will need sustained support, including psychosocial care alongside food, water and shelter. She stressed that recovery and reconstruction “will take time”, as the UN and its partners prepare for the next phase of the humanitarian response.

Dentro al-Mawasi, l'area che Israele ha dichiarato "zona umanitaria", un drone ha ucciso un bambino mercoledì 24 giugno. È accaduto al campo di al-Taybeh, a ovest di Khan Yunis. Lo riferiscono il complesso medico Nasser e l'agenzia palestinese Wafa. Quello stesso giorno, alla Conferenza delle Autorità locali israeliane, Benjamin Netanyahu ha scelto un verbo: «Oggi controlliamo quasi il 70% della Striscia di Gaza e stiamo strangolando Hamas». Lo riporta Ynet. Quel 70% è la misura dell'occupazione che la Corte internazionale di giustizia, nel parere del luglio 2024, ha dichiarato illegale e da far cessare. A dire chi sia strangolato per davvero è l'ONU, nelle stesse ore. Il portavoce Stéphane Dujarric porta i dati OCHA del 23 giugno: 1,7 milioni di sfollati, l'80% della popolazione, in quasi 1.600 siti di accoglienza. Seicentomila persone senza accesso sufficiente all'acqua potabile. Dal cessate il fuoco del 10 ottobre gli attacchi israeliani hanno ucciso almeno 1.027 persone e ferite 3.280, secondo il ministero della Salute di Gaza. Le Forze di difesa israeliane accompagnano ogni colpo con una ragione. Nella notte, fanno sapere, hanno distrutto quattro postazioni di lancio che dicono "allestite durante il cessate il fuoco", e domenica hanno ucciso nel sud un uomo che avevano fotografato il 7 ottobre. La macchina che riempie ogni morte di una giustificazione gira mentre il premier conta il suo settanta per cento. "Strangolare" resta la sua parola. Indica un obiettivo militare e descrive una condizione civile, e nei 1.600 campi senza acqua le due cose coincidono. Intanto a Fiumicino sono rientrati Domenico Centrone e Leonarda Alberizia, gli attivisti del Global Sumud Land Convoy liberati dalla Libia dopo un mese e annunciati da Antonio Tajani come successo diplomatico. Scesa dall'aereo, Alberizia ha riportato lo sguardo dove serve: «Sotto gli occhi del mondo è in atto un genocidio a Gaza, non possiamo restare a guardare». #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

A Jiljilya, a nord di Ramallah, i coloni hanno trovato sbarrata la porta della moschea e hanno dato fuoco alla sala delle abluzioni. Era la notte del 17 giugno. Sul muro esterno, la firma: "vendetta", "notte delle moschee", "un saluto dai Giovani delle Colline". Stesso copione, intorno alle tre, a Mazra'a al-Nubani, con bottiglie molotov. Osama Abdullah, capo del consiglio del villaggio, all'Afp parla di soffitto e muri anneriti. L'esercito israeliano ha confermato incendio e scritte. Poi ha messo a verbale che "le forze hanno cercato i sospetti", i quali però "erano fuggiti prima del loro arrivo". Gli incendiari si firmano sul muro e per lo Stato restano introvabili. Il quadro lo ha fissato l'11 giugno Stéphane Dujarric, portavoce del segretario generale dell'Onu, per conto di OCHA: nel solo 2026 gli attacchi dei coloni con vittime o danni hanno superato quota mille, in oltre 230 comunità, sei al giorno, «più alta di qualsiasi anno mai registrato». Jiljilya in quel conto c'era già: il 16 maggio un attacco aveva sfollato 137 persone, 81 bambini, ventidue famiglie beduine. Lo stesso villaggio colpito due volte in un mese, prima la fuga poi il rogo. La Cisgiordania è territorio occupato, e la Corte internazionale di giustizia nel parere del luglio 2024 ha dichiarato illegale la presenza israeliana. Lì oltre cinquecentomila coloni vivono accanto a tre milioni di palestinesi, e gli arresti per le loro violenze restano rari, le condanne ancora meno. Intanto a Gaza il Ministero della Salute ha certificato il 17 giugno 1.005 uccisi dall'inizio della tregua di ottobre. Restano a Bengasi dal 24 maggio Domenico Centrone, 33 anni, di Molfetta, e Dina Alberizia, 67: il procuratore libico ha prorogato le indagini di altri trenta giorni.

Au Cameroun, la région de l'Extrême-Nord fait face à une crise humanitaire persistante marquée par les conflits armés liés à Boko Haram, des épidémies de choléra et de rougeole, et les conséquences du changement climatique. Des milliers de déplacés internes et de réfugiés du Nigéria et Tchad voisins exercent une pression intense sur des structures de sanitaires déjà fragiles, alors que la situation sécuritaire entrave l'accès aux soins. Aujourd'hui, près de 3 millions de personnes souffrent d'insécurité alimentaire sévère, selon OCHA. Les enfants en sont les premières victimes : au premier trimestre de cette année, 200 000 enfants ont été diagnostiqués de malnutrition et dans l'Extrême-Nord.  [Reportage long format à l'occasion de la Journée mondiale contre la faim] Pour lutter contre la mortalité infantile, l'ONG humanitaire médicale internationale ALIMA soutient des structures locales du département du Mayo-Tsanaga qui assurent aux populations isolées et vulnérables un accès gratuit aux soins : prise en charge médicale et thérapeutique des enfants malnutris à l'hôpital régional annexe de Mokolo et dans six centres de santé périphériques. Mais aussi stratégie communautaire pour dépister et prévenir la malnutrition et former les familles à l'éducation nutritionnelle. Dès qu'un enfant est diagnostiqué pour malnutrition au niveau d'un des centres de santé, il entre dans un programme de 42 jours, c'est-à-dire qu'il est soigné en communauté et s'il présente des complications, il est immédiatement référé à l'hôpital régional annexe de Mokolo.  2 600 admissions depuis 2024 Déshydratation, hypoglycémie, détresse respiratoire, fièvre, anémie, hypothermie, convulsions, épuisement... Les conséquences de la malnutrition peuvent être fatales pour les enfants. Pour sauver les tout-petits malnutris, le centre nutritionnel thérapeutique interne de l'hôpital de Mokolo est le seul fonctionnel dans tout le département. Depuis 2024, il a enregistré 2 600 admissions. Deux volets de prise en charge : d'abord médicamenteuse, pour lever les complications, et nutritionnelle, pour remédier aux défaillances en nutriments et vitamines liées à l'état instable des enfants malades. Aujourd'hui, l'hôpital de Mokolo enregistre un taux de guérison de 93%. La guérison de ces enfants passe aussi par des activités de stimulation physique et cognitive. La psychostimulation est essentielle dans la prise en charge de la malnutrition car lorsqu'un enfant est malnutri, il est amorphe, fatigué, éteint, son cerveau est ralenti. Si ce volet cognitif et psychique n'est pas pris en compte, cela va retarder l'amélioration de son état clinique, son développement psychomoteur et sa physiologie future. Les activités d'éveil vont donc faciliter sa guérison. Un suivi en communauté À la sortie de l'hôpital, les enfants sont suivis dans les centres de santé en communauté : consultations d'évolution, sensibilisations aux bonnes pratiques nutritionnelles et à l'hygiène, visites à domicile des relais communautaires, démonstrations culinaires. Les communautés sont des leviers indispensables à la santé infantile.  À Mokolo, comme dans tant d'autres communautés, chaque enfant sauvé est une victoire collective. Une victoire rendue possible par le dévouement des soignants, l'engagement des communautés et le soutien des agences humanitaires. Des témoignages qui rappellent combien l'accès aux soins reste un enjeu central dans une région où les distances, l'insécurité et la baisse des financements humanitaires compliquent les parcours de santé.   ► Un reportage long format de Raphaëlle Constant réalisé par Victor Uhl, en partenariat avec l'ONG Alima (Alliance for International Medical Action), à l'occasion de la Journée mondiale contre la faim.  Programmation musicale :  ► Blick Bassy – Donalina

Pour sauver les tout-petits malnutris, le centre nutritionnel thérapeutique interne de l'hôpital de Mokolo est le seul fonctionnel dans tout le département. Depuis 2024, il a enregistré 2 600 admissions. Deux volets de prise en charge : d'abord médicamenteuse, pour lever les complications, et nutritionnelle, pour remédier aux défaillances en nutriments et vitamines liées à l'état instable des enfants malades. Aujourd'hui, l'hôpital de Mokolo enregistre un taux de guérison de 93%. La guérison de ces enfants passe aussi par des activités de stimulation physique et cognitive. La psychostimulation est essentielle dans la prise en charge de la malnutrition car lorsqu'un enfant est malnutri, il est amorphe, fatigué, éteint, son cerveau est ralenti. Si ce volet cognitif et psychique n'est pas pris en compte, cela va retarder l'amélioration de son état clinique, son développement psychomoteur et sa physiologie future. Les activités d'éveil vont donc faciliter sa guérison. Un suivi en communauté À la sortie de l'hôpital, les enfants sont suivis dans les centres de santé en communauté : consultations d'évolution, sensibilisations aux bonnes pratiques nutritionnelles et à l'hygiène, visites à domicile des relais communautaires, démonstrations culinaires. Les communautés sont des leviers indispensables à la santé infantile.  À Mokolo, comme dans tant d'autres communautés, chaque enfant sauvé est une victoire collective. Une victoire rendue possible par le dévouement des soignants, l'engagement des communautés et le soutien des agences humanitaires. Des témoignages qui rappellent combien l'accès aux soins reste un enjeu central dans une région où les distances, l'insécurité et la baisse des financements humanitaires compliquent les parcours de santé.   ► Un reportage long format de Raphaëlle Constant réalisé par Victor Uhl, en partenariat avec l'ONG Alima (Alliance for International Medical Action), à l'occasion de la Journée mondiale contre la faim.  Programmation musicale :  ► Blick Bassy – Donalina

Au Cameroun, la région de l'Extrême-Nord fait face à une crise humanitaire persistante marquée par les conflits armés liés à Boko Haram, des épidémies de choléra et de rougeole, et les conséquences du changement climatique. Des milliers de déplacés internes et de réfugiés du Nigéria et Tchad voisins exercent une pression intense sur des structures de sanitaires déjà fragiles, alors que la situation sécuritaire entrave l'accès aux soins. Aujourd'hui, près de 3 millions de personnes souffrent d'insécurité alimentaire sévère, selon OCHA. Les enfants en sont les premières victimes : au premier trimestre de cette année, 200 000 enfants ont été diagnostiqués de malnutrition et dans l'Extrême-Nord.  Pour lutter contre la mortalité infantile, l'ONG humanitaire médicale internationale ALIMA soutient des structures locales du département du Mayo-Tsanaga qui assurent aux populations isolées et vulnérables un accès gratuit aux soins : prise en charge médicale et thérapeutique des enfants malnutris à l'hôpital régional annexe de Mokolo et dans six centres de santé périphériques. « Il est notoire que le développement d'un pays ne peut être fait si les jeunes enfants de moins de 5 ans souffrent de malnutrition, que ce soit aigu, que ce soit chronique. L'avenir d'un d'une nation passe forcément par l'éradication de la malnutrition. » Dr Michel Onana, médecin traitant à l'hôpital de Mokolo   ► Un reportage long format de Raphaëlle Constant réalisé par Victor Uhl, en partenariat avec l'ONG Alima (Alliance for International Medical Action), à l'occasion de la Journée mondiale contre la faim, à retrouver dans Priorité Santé.

It's hard to come up with new ways to describe the massive humanitarian emergency that is still unfolding in Sudan because of the war.A staggering 33 million people need help and later today, UN-backed food insecurity experts are expected to warn once again that hunger is on the rise again and famine is a real risk in 14 areas of the devastated country.Although it is extremely difficult and dangerous to access and report from Sudan's east, photographer Giles Clarke has managed to do so, with the help of the UN aid coordination office, OCHA. The result is a memorable, harrowing photo-essay that features the stories of five civilians impacted by the conflict. It's called Darfur's Survivors.

This week, we discuss the United States' new highly targeted approach to humanitarian aid, showcased in a $2 billion agreement with the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, or OCHA. Designed for rapid impact, the funds are strictly earmarked for direct, lifesaving assistance over a short six-month window across 18 crisis-affected countries. We explore the implications of this strategy, which signals a significant shift in U.S. foreign aid toward fast-tracked, tightly scoped interventions focused on immediate survival. During the conversation, we also take a look at the details of the Trump administration's budget request, which calls for a 30% cut to foreign affairs spending and increased funding to rebuild and secure critical mineral supply chains. To dig into these stories, and others, Devex Business Editor David Ainsworth sits down with Adva Saldinger and Elissa Miolene for the latest episode of our weekly podcast series.

Since the declaration of a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip on 10 October 2025, the United Nations' main concern has been — and remains — the urgent scaling up of humanitarian aid.And while the long-awaited reopening of the Rafah crossing at the start of this month raised hopes, it has also been marked by delays and reports of mistreatment of Palestinians, according to aid organizations, with no significant improvement in the overall humanitarian situation.For more details, UN News's Nancy Sarkis spoke to Gaza aid veteran Olga Cherevko, spokesperson for the UN aid coordination office, OCHA.

CELÝ ZÁZNAM STUDIA N LIVE A VŠECHNY OSTATNÍ EPIZODY V PLNÉ VERZI NAJDETE NA HEROHERO.CO/STUDION Film může uklidňovat, ale také otevřít místa, na která nejsme připraveni. Ve Studiu N mluví Filip Titlbach s filmovým historikem a uměleckým šéfem karlovarského filmového festivalu Karlem Ochem o snímku Citová hodnota, o síle emocí v kině a o tom, proč jsou některé filmy přitažlivé právě tím, že z nich máme obavy. Film Citová hodnota režiséra Joachima Triera se stal jedním z nejdiskutovanějších evropských snímků – a to nejen kvůli devíti oscarovým nominacím nebo triumfu na Evropských filmových cenách. „Já si na Trierovi už od jeho mládí vážím jisté zralosti a moudrosti, se kterými přistupuje ke svým postavám. Snaží se být chápavý a celé je to obestřené velmi hustou melancholií,“ popsal na živém natáčení Studia N v pražském kině Přítomnost Och. Filmy rozděluje na ty, kterým věří, a na ty, které mu připadají vycucané z prstu. „Citová hodnota je film, který patří do té první kategorie. Trier tvoří neuvěřitelně komplexní mikrosvět vztahů, melancholie a věrohodných emocí, že se do něj vždycky rád nořím. Někdy z toho mám ale trochu obavy, protože při sledování jeho filmů prožívám velmi silné emoce. Je to přitažlivost a obava zároveň,“ říká. Někdy lidé podle něj prožívají ještě silnější emoce, když se na film dívají podruhé. Diváci a divačky by se podle filmového historika měli rozmýšlet, jestli na určité druhy filmů mají zrovna kapacitu. Film totiž může léčit i zraňovat. Hranice mezi tím, kdy kino pomáhá a kdy už ubližuje, je podle Ocha u každého jinde a souvisí s tím, co si do sálu neseme ze svého vlastního života. „Stalo se mi, že jsem z jednoho filmu odešel už po deseti minutách, protože se v něm odehrávalo něco, co jsem intenzivně prožíval. Představa, že se dívám na zkondenzovanou verzi téhož pro mě byla absolutně fyzicky nepřijatelná,“ přiznává. I proto je někdy legitimní z kina odejít. Ne proto, že by film selhal, ale protože se trefil až příliš přesně. „Je to lepší možnost než se u toho trápit,“ říká. Zažívá Joachim Trier svých warholovských patnáct minut slávy? Co dělá film výjimečným? A jak se vybírají snímky pro karlovarský filmový festival? Podívejte se na záznam celé debaty na herohero.co/studion

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.…
