«Quiconque tente de nuire à Israël sera frappé», a fanfaronné le ministre de la Guerre, Israël #Katz.
«Et quiconque lève la main contre Israël la verra coupée. Les Houthis continueront de payer un lourd tribut pour leurs actes».
La nouvelle campagne de bombardements contre l'un des pays les plus pauvres du monde a visé les infrastructures des ports yéménites de #Hodeidah, Ras Isa et Al-Salif, ainsi qu'une centrale électrique à Ras Katib.
«Ces ports sont utilisés par le régime terroriste houthi pour transférer des armes du régime iranien, qui servent à mener des opérations terroristes contre l’Etat d'Israël et ses alliés», a affirmé Tsahal.

Israel continued its genocidal onslaught on Gaza, with medical sources telling Al Jazeera that at least 30 Palestinians had been killed since dawn on Tuesday.
“It was a sleepless night here in Gaza, marked by an intensification of air attacks and the use of multiple aerial vehicles, including fighter jets, drones and helicopters to pummel residential areas and spaces that had been designated as ‘safe zones’,” Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum reported from Deir el-Balah in central Gaza.
At least nine Palestinians were killed during an Israeli drone attack on a tent sheltering displaced #Palestinians in the al-Mawasi area near Gaza’s southern city of Khan Younis.
In a separate dawn attack, two people were killed and others injured in Israeli air raids on the Hakr al-Jami area in Deir el-Balah, the Wafa news agency reported, citing medical sources.
Israeli planes also bombed a school sheltering displaced Palestinians in the Bureij refugee camp in central #Gaza, reportedly killing at least four people.

A pool heat pump is an excellent investment for extending your swimming season and enjoying comfortable water temperatures year-round. However, selecting the right pool heat pump for your pool requires careful consideration of factors like climate, pool size, and energy efficiency. With so many options available, how do you choose the best one for your needs? This guide will help you navigate the decision-making process.
Understanding Pool Heat Pumps
Pool heat pumps work by extracting heat from the surrounding air and transferring it to the pool water. Unlike gas heaters, which generate heat through combustion, heat pumps are more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. They are ideal for maintaining consistent water temperatures, especially in moderate climates.
Key Factors to Consider
1. Climate
Your local climate plays a significant role in determining the type of heat pump you need. Heat pumps rely on ambient air temperature to operate efficiently, so they perform best in regions where temperatures rarely drop below 50°F (10°C). In colder climates, the efficiency of a standard heat pump may decrease, and it may struggle to maintain desired water temperatures.
For cooler regions, consider a cold-climate heat pump, which is specifically designed to operate efficiently in lower temperatures. These models often include features like variable-speed compressors and advanced defrost systems to ensure reliable performance even in chilly weather.
2. Pool Size
The size of your pool is another critical factor. Heat pumps are rated by their BTU (British Thermal Unit) output, which indicates how much heat they can generate. Larger pools require higher BTU ratings to heat the water effectively. To determine the appropriate size, consider the following:
Pool Volume: Calculate your pool’s volume in gallons.
Desired Temperature Rise: Determine how much you need to increase the water temperature, factoring in the average air temperature in your area.
Heating Time: Consider how quickly you want to heat your pool. Faster heating requires a higher BTU rating.
A general rule of thumb is to choose a heat pump with a BTU output that matches your pool’s volume and heating needs. For example, a 100,000 BTU heat pump is suitable for a medium-sized pool, while a 140,000 BTU model may be necessary for a larger pool.
3. Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is a major advantage of pool heat pumps, but some models are more efficient than others. Look for the Coefficient of Performance (COP), which measures how efficiently the heat pump converts electricity into heat. A higher COP indicates better efficiency and lower operating costs.
Additionally, consider heat pumps with features like variable-speed fans or digital controls, which allow you to optimize performance and reduce energy consumption.
4. Installation and Maintenance
Proper installation is crucial for maximizing the performance and lifespan of your heat pump. Ensure the unit is placed in a well-ventilated area with adequate airflow, as restricted airflow can reduce efficiency. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the evaporator coil and checking refrigerant levels, will also help maintain optimal performance.
Conclusion
Choosing the right pool heat pump involves balancing your climate, pool size, and energy efficiency needs. By selecting a model that matches your specific requirements, you can enjoy a comfortably heated pool while minimizing energy costs and environmental impact. Whether you live in a warm or cooler climate, there’s a heat pump designed to meet your needs.
Investing in the right pool heat pump not only enhances your swimming experience but also adds value to your home. With proper research and professional guidance, you can find the perfect heat pump to keep your pool at the ideal temperature all year round.

Bitter und inakzeptabel daran ist auch, dass der antifaschistischen Mobilisierung in De schwerer Schaden zugefügt wird, indem eine wichtige Institution des Gedenkens an den Widerstand gegen den NS-Faschismus der rechtsextremen Regierung Israels kritiklose Unterstützung gewährt und kein Verständnis für Palästinenser:innen als vom Holocaust mittelbar betroffene Menschen aufzubringen scheint.

L’Insee a publié, lundi 7 juillet, ses données pour l’année 2023 : le taux de pauvreté atteint 15,4 %, son plus haut niveau depuis le début du décompte en 1996. L’écart entre les 20 % les plus riches et les 20 % les plus pauvres s’est creusé, proche de celui du début des années 1970.

L'entrée du centre d'accueil de jour et de mise à l’abri du Secours islamique France, à Massy (Essonne), le 4 juillet 2025. SAMUEL GRATACAP POUR « LE MONDE »
Cela fait presque trente ans que l’Institut national de la statistique et des études économiques (Insee) mesure, chaque année, la pauvreté et les inégalités au sein de la population de France métropolitaine vivant en logement ordinaire. Jamais celles-ci n’avaient atteint les sommets enregistrés pour l’année 2023, publiés lundi 7 juillet : 9,8 millions d’habitants vivent sous le seuil de pauvreté monétaire, fixé à 60 % du revenu mensuel médian, soit 1 288 euros, pour une personne seule.
Environ 650 000 personnes ont basculé dans la pauvreté en l’espace d’une année, soit la progression la plus forte depuis 1996, début de la méthode de calcul actuelle. Le taux de pauvreté a atteint 15,4 %, après 14,4 % en 2022, soit un niveau et une hausse également record. Il en va de même concernant les inégalités : les 20 % les plus riches ont eu des revenus 4,5 fois supérieurs aux 20 % les plus pauvres, un écart historique sur les trente dernières années. Le coefficient de Gini, autre mesure des inégalités, frôle son maximum, atteint en 2011.
« Il faudrait remonter aux débuts des années 1970 pour constater des inégalités un peu plus fortes », affirme Michel Duée, chef du département des ressources et des conditions de vie des ménages de l’Insee. Comment expliquer ces constats ? « Le niveau de vie, soutenu par une conjoncture favorable de l’emploi, a augmenté plus vite que l’inflation, sauf pour les plus modestes », résume-t-il.
Lire aussi
Le niveau de vie médian a atteint 2 150 euros mensuels pour une personne seule, une hausse plus forte (+ 5,9 %) que l’inflation (+ 4,9 % en moyenne annuelle), soit une augmentation en euros constants de 0,9 %. Mais les évolutions à chaque extrémité du spectre des revenus ont été très différentes. Le niveau de vie des 10 % les plus riches a ainsi progressé de 2,1 % en euros constants, « porté par les rendements des produits financiers », souligne M. Duée. Cette catégorie a également bénéficié de la dernière phase de l’exonération de la taxe d’habitation. Tandis que les 30 % d’habitants les plus modestes ont connu une baisse de leur niveau de vie, particulièrement marquée pour les 10 % les plus pauvres (– 1 % en euros constants).
Phénomène des « travailleurs pauvres »
Selon M. Duée, « cette baisse du niveau de vie des plus modestes s’explique par l’arrêt des mesures exceptionnelles, qui avaient été prises en 2022 – l’indemnité inflation, la prime exceptionnelle de rentrée, la revalorisation anticipée des prestations sociales –, ainsi que par une hausse du nombre des microentrepreneurs aux revenus faibles ». De plus, les aides au logement n’ont pas été revalorisées à la hauteur de l’inflation et elles ont bénéficié à moins de personnes que les années précédentes.
Le phénomène des « travailleurs pauvres » se renforce (8,3 % des actifs en emploi sont pauvres, en hausse de 0,6 point), tout comme la pauvreté des chômeurs (36,1 %, en hausse de 0,8 point), notamment liée à la réforme de l’assurance-chômage. Les retraités ont vu leur taux de pauvreté progresser de seulement 0,3 % et rester faible, à 11,1 %, les plus modestes d’entre eux ayant bénéficié de la réforme des retraites.
La pauvreté des familles monoparentales a particulièrement augmenté, passant de 31,4 % à 34,3 %. La revalorisation de l’allocation de soutien familial de 50 %, fin 2022, n’a pas compensé l’arrêt des aides exceptionnelles, et certaines familles ont, par ailleurs, connu des périodes d’emploi plus courtes dans l’année et des temps partiels avec moins d’heures. Cela a contribué à faire progresser le taux de pauvreté des enfants, qui a atteint 21,9 % (+ 1,5 point).
Ces différents chiffres sont cependant en deçà de la pauvreté monétaire réelle, puisqu’ils n’incluent ni les habitants des départements d’outre-mer, ni les personnes sans abri, ni celles qui vivent en habitation mobile ou en institution (établissements d’hébergement pour personnes âgées dépendantes, foyers de jeunes travailleurs…), ni les ménages dont la personne de référence est étudiante. L’Insee avait estimé, grâce à des sources complémentaires, que ces différentes catégories totalisaient, en 2021, plus de 2 millions de personnes pauvres, à ajouter aux 9,1 millions recensées en logement ordinaire en France métropolitaine.
Pour le président du Conseil national des politiques de lutte contre la pauvreté (CNLE), le sociologue Nicolas Duvoux, « un seuil d’alerte a été franchi ». « Nous ne sommes plus sur une stabilisation de la pauvreté à un niveau élevé, mais dans une dynamique de hausse », affirme-t-il. Le constat dressé dans une récente étude du CNLE, portant sur les années 2015 à 2022, se trouve confirmé : « La baisse du chômage n’entraîne plus comme avant une baisse de la pauvreté : il y a une précarité du marché du travail, et l’encouragement au développement du statut de microentrepreneur n’a pas permis d’endiguer [sa progression] », constate le chercheur, qui appelle à une « action résolue ».
« Se doter d’une stratégie »
« Le constat est dramatique et insupportable, avec près d’un Français sur six en situation de pauvreté en 2023 », réagit Delphine Rouilleault, la présidente du collectif Alerte, qui rassemble 37 associations nationales de solidarité (Emmaüs, Secours catholique, ATD Quart Monde, Fondation pour le logement des défavorisés, etc.).
Si ni l’Insee ni le CNLE ne se risquent à formuler des hypothèses pour 2024, le collectif Alerte craint, pour sa part, que cette paupérisation continue, du fait de mesures récentes : l’obligation faite aux allocataires du revenu de solidarité active, depuis le 1er janvier, d’effectuer quinze heures d’activité hebdomadaires, sous peine de sanctions, qui risque d’augmenter le taux de non-recours à cette aide, déjà élevé ; la baisse, dès 2025, des financements alloués à l’insertion par l’activité économique et des crédits exceptionnels accordés à l’aide alimentaire ; la loi Kasbarian-Bergé de juillet 2023, qui a contribué au nombre record d’expulsions locatives.
Les associations du collectif Alerte ont rencontré le premier ministre, François Bayrou, jeudi 3 juillet. Ce dernier s’est engagé à maintenir, en 2026, les 203 000 places d’hébergement d’urgence actuelles, et à fixer un objectif à dix ans de réduction de la pauvreté, comme prévu par une loi de 2008. « Il faut aussi se doter d’une stratégie et de moyens, exhorte Delphine Rouilleault. Il existe des marges de manœuvre, avec des niches fiscales et des aides aux entreprises injustes ou inefficaces. Geler les prestations sociales en 2026, comme cela a été suggéré dans le cadre d’une année blanche, est, en revanche, inenvisageable. »
