There are thousands of stories that could be told of that day but one woman who survived described it best when she said that she emerged from her shelter into "a city of death."

A team of astronomers has taken the sharpest-ever picture of the unexpected interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, using the crisp vision of the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope.
ESA's Planetary Defence Office responded promptly to the discovery of the comet, and has been tracking it since the beginning of July.
Now, Hubble's observations from space are allowing astronomers to more accurately estimate the size of the comet’s solid icy nucleus. The upper limit on the diameter of the nucleus is 5.6 km, but it could be as small as 320 m across, researchers report.
Though the Hubble images put tighter constraints on the nucleus size compared to previous ground-based estimates, the solid heart of the comet presently cannot be directly seen, even by Hubble. Further observations, including by the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, will help refine our knowledge about the comet, including its chemical makeup.
Hubble also captured a dust plume ejected from the Sun-warmed side of the comet, and the hint of a dust tail streaming away from the nucleus. Hubble’s data show that the comet is losing dust in a similar manner to that from previously seen Sun-bound comets originating within our Solar System.
The big difference is that this interstellar visitor originated in some other stellar systems, elsewhere in our Milky Way galaxy.
3I/ATLAS is traveling through our Solar System at roughly 210 000 km per hour, the highest speed ever recorded for a Solar System visitor. This breathtaking sprint is evidence that the comet has been drifting through interstellar space for many billions of years. The gravitational slingshot effect from innumerable stars and nebulae the comet passed added momentum, ratcheting up its speed. The longer 3I/ATLAS was out in space, the higher its speed grew.
This comet was discovered by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) on 1 July 2025 at a distance of 675 million km from the Sun. 3I/ATLAS should remain visible to ground-based telescopes until September, after which it will pass too close to the Sun to observe. It is expected to reappear on the other side of the Sun by early December.
Icy wanderers such as 3I/ATLAS offer a rare, tangible connection to the broader galaxy. To actually visit one would connect humankind with the Universe on a far greater scale. To this end, ESA is preparing the Comet Interceptor mission. The spacecraft will be launched in 2029 into a parking orbit, lying in wait for a suitable target – a pristine comet from the distant Oort Cloud that surrounds our Solar System, or, unlikely but highly appealing, an interstellar object.
While it is improbable that we will discover an interstellar object that is reachable for Comet Interceptor, as a first demonstration of a rapid response mission that waits in space for its target, it will be a pathfinder for possible future missions to intercept these mysterious visitors.
The research paper based on Hubble observations will be published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters.

I do see a move away from any RealSecurity™ and a move towards check-mark compliance potentially even accelerated by all the regulatory compliance requirements - While said requirements COULD have been used to improve security posture they are effectively starving effective measures (and thereby current best practices) further increasing security poverty.
"Compliance-sizing: the act of replacing highly skilled and educated cyber security professionals with auditors.
…Or just overwhelming said professionals with sheer amounts of useless “controls” developed by people with no real understanding of how Threat Actors operate"
@itisiboller I think Martin has mostly nailed it here.
The OP is by someone busy trying to convince themselves of an effective move to functional compliance.

Turkey: Revolutionary Prisoner Turns Hunger Strike into Fast until Death
On July 31, Serkan Onur Yilmaz announced that he was transforming his hunger strike that began on November 10, 2024 into a fast until death while his health condition is critical. Started 270 days ago, this struggle aims to denounce the “well” type prisons in Turkey which are infamous for their particularly inhumane conditions of detention and their very strict solitary confinement regime. Alongside him, eight other revolutionary prisoners went on hunger strike with the same demands: Mithat Öztürk, Ali Aracı, Ayberk Demirdöğen, Fikret Akar, Ümit Çobanoğlu, Fırat Kaya, Tahsin Sağaltıcı and Gürkan Türkoğlu.

I think I know how modern counter-propaganda works. Propaganda is so sophisticated it doesn't even boil the frog. It just keeps it warm enough to make the frog uncomfortable. So counter-propaganda just needs to tip the balance in this highly fragile state.
I often notice when the West says X as propaganda, the Chinese just say 2X. They don't try to debunk X. So if the west suddenly says it hates goblins, the Chinese say we hate goblins twice as much as the West.

Chinese scientists have developed a new high-strength cryogenic steel, CHSN01, to solve a major challenge in nuclear fusion: finding a material that can withstand both extreme cold (near absolute zero) and immense magnetic forces. After a decade of research, this new steel has been deployed in the construction of the world's first fusion power reactor, positioning China as a leader in materials science for fusion technology.

The Geneva Conventions weren’t written by soft-headed humanitarians. They were negotiated by generals, and they recognized, O.K., if we allow starvation as a tactic, we’re just going to be starving civilians, not the guys doing the fighting.
This all leads to one of the most extraordinary points, which is that the G.H.F. was supposed to minimize Hamas looting. Who is eating or selling the food that they are distributing? They can’t tell. The U.N. has a pretty good idea of who was eating its food. The G.H.F. has not got a fucking clue.
