In Germany, the group the State Department calls Antifa Ost is not known by that name. It is described as the group around “Lina E.,” a woman put on trial for actions tied to the group, or the “Hammer Band,” because of the tools that people associated with it use to attack neo-Nazis.

Donald Trump’s lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean and the Pacific are a brutal escalation of the United States’ long-running “war on drugs,” a bipartisan war that has seen the US involved in torture and extrajudicial killing abroad since the 1970s.

“You have arrived in hell. Here you will spend the rest of your lives.” With this declaration, the director of El Salvador’s CECOT greeted the hundreds of men dragged into the country’s maximum security torture camp.

On Thursday, a plane carrying 153 Palestinians from Gaza landed at South Africa's OR Tambo International Airport, but the plane was held on the tarmac for around 12 hours, with passengers not allowed to disembark - triggering confusion and anger against local authorities.

Within hours, however, activists and South African authorities discovered several irregularities in the way the Palestinians' travel had been organised by a body called Al-Majd Europe.

Activists found that not only had the South African government been unaware of their arrival, but the evacuees themselves were not in possession of any documentation or paperwork to assist with their processing in the country.

One Million People Weekly Use ChatGPT To Discuss Suicide

A startling new report from OpenAI has quantified the profound role its AI is playing in users’ personal lives, revealing that over one million people each week turn to ChatGPT with conversations that include explicit indicators of suicidal intent. This figure, representing 0.15 percent of its weekly active users, exposes a massive, unplanned social experiment unfolding in real-time. For the first time in history, immense numbers of people are regularly confiding their most acute psychological struggles not to a human, but to a machine intelligence system. The increased parameters around AI for crisis support creates a need for regulation and monumental responsibility that the company is still learning to navigate.

For the second day in a row, the rain hasn’t stopped in Gaza. Everything is soaked, and our tent has torn apart from the strong winds. We are in desperate need of your help to keep my children safe from the cold. They are shivering uncontrollably, and my heart breaks watching them suffer. 😭

Please, we need any support to find shelter — even a single small room — or to buy a new tent to replace the one that was destroyed. From the heart of a grieving mother, I appeal to your kindness and compassion. Any donation, no matter how small, would bring warmth and hope to me and my children during this harsh winter https://gofund.me/f6e9cc9d
