      • "content": "Park Ji-hoon returned as Yeon Si-eun, delivering a terrific performance in the second season of ' Weak Hero Class '. In the finale, Park Hu-min, aka Baku challenged Baek-jin's The Union to a fight against Eunjang. In the end, Eunjang High boys won the fight, putting an end to The Union (Or maybe not). In the post-credits scene, Mr. Choi (Jo Jung-suk) offered Geum Seong-je (Lee Jun-young) to replace Baek-jin as the leader of The Union, who is now dead. Also, Ahn Su-ho (Choi Hyun-wook) woke up from a coma and reunited with Si-eun. With all this happening, will there be a ' Weak Hero Class ' season 3? In a recent interview with ZAPZEE, Ji-hoon opened up about the possibility of returning as Si-eun again. He said, \"If people enjoy season 2, I think there's a possibility for season 3. I'm hesitant to say anything for sure, but as I approach my final year of high school and grow up, it might be possible to explore a story about growing up. While Weak Hero is about high school students, it's interesting because it portrays them dealing with adult situations, and that could be fun to explore.\" SPOILER The whole time I was scared this guy will die or get killed while in a coma. They literally left it for the end to wake SuHo up and they don't even get to hug? 🥺 And SuHo, that's your son back there. 😏 #WeakHeroClass2Ep8 #TwinklingWatermelon pic.twitter.com/eS2MK6DKyx — simplypurple 💜🖤🇵🇸 (@4simplypurple) April 26, 2025 Praising his co-stars, Ji-hoon said, \"They are all talented actors, each with their own strength. We didn't start filming as close friends, but we naturally became closer as we spent time together.\" Besides Ji-hoon, ' Weak Hero Class ' season 2 stars Ryeoun as Baku, Lee Min-jae as Go Yun-tak, Choi Min-yeong as Seo Jun-tae, Yu Su-bin as Choi Hyo-man, Lee Jun-young as Geum Seong-je, and Bae Na-ra and Na Baek-jin. \"who are those guys behind you?” “my friends”❤️‍🩹 #weakheroclass2 #weakheroclass pic.twitter.com/8WXddh5n6e — fra🧸 (@yamfreckles) April 25, 2025",

      • "content": "وأشار المكتب إلى أن الأسيرين سلامة والبرغوثي يتعرضان لجرائم تعذيب ممنهجة في السجون الإسرائيلية. وأكد مكتب إعلام الأسرى، أن عبد الله البرغوثي يواجه محاولة اغتيال ممنهجة داخل سجن \"جلبوع\"، مشيرا إلى أن حالته الصحية وصلت إلى مرحلة حرجة تهدد حياته بشكل مباشر. وعبدالله البرغوثي 53 عاما، هو قائد كتائب عز الدين القسام سابقا في الضفة الغربية، وأسير في السجون الإسرائيلية، يقضي حاليا حكما من أعظم الأحكام في التاريخ بالسجن المؤبد 67 مرة، إضافة إلى خمسة آلاف ومائتي (5200) عاما؛ لمسؤوليته عن مقتل 67 إسرائيليا في سلسلة عمليات نفذت بين عامي 2000 و2003. وأوضح المكتب أن البرغوثي يتعرض للضرب الشديد، ويتم إدخال الكلاب إلى زنزانته لنهش جسده المغمور بالدماء، ويوجه إليه الضابط الإهانات قائلا: \"كنت قائدا سابقا، اليوم أنت صفر.. يجب أن تموت\". وأضاف المكتب أن البرغوثي يدخل في غيبوبة متكررة، ويفتقر لأي وسيلة حماية، ويضطر للنوم جالسا على الأرض مع انحناء رأسه للأمام بسبب الألم، كما لم يتمكن من الاستحمام منذ 12 يوما، ويضطر لنقع الخبز بالماء وشربه لعدم قدرته على المضغ. أما الأسير حسن سلامة، فقد أفاد مكتب الأسرى، أنه يتعرض في سجن \"مجدو\"، لتعذيب ممنهج، حيث يقبع منذ عدة شهور في العزل الانفرادي،ىيتلقى الضرب المبرح بشكل دوري، مشيرا إلى أنه تعرض لستة اعتداءات متتالية خلال شهرين. ولفت المكتب إلى أن سياسة التجويع التي تمارسها إدارة السجن بحق الأسير سلامة أدت إلى تراجع حاد في وضعه الصحي فقد انخفض وزنه إلى 62 كيلوغراما، ومع هذا التدهور الجسدي تساقطت أسنانه، وضعف بصره بشكل لافت، وبدأ يعاني من هزال شديد وصداع دائم نتيجة الإهمال الطبي. وحسن سلامة هو أحد أبرز قادة كتائب القسام من سكان خان يونس جنوب قطاع غزة، اعتقل في الخليل عام 1996، وحكم عليه بالسجن 48 مؤبدا وثلاثين عاما ، أمضى منها 13 عاما في العزل الانفرادي. اتهم بالانتماء لحركة حماس ولجناحها العسكري كتائب عز الدين القسام، وقيادته لعمليات الثأر المقدس للقائد القسامي يحيى عياش، التي أدت لمقتل وإصابة عشرات الإسرائيليين. وحذر مكتب إعلام الأسرى من خطورة الوضع الصحي لسلامة والبرغوثي وطالب اللجنة الدولية للصليب الأحمر والمؤسسات الحقوقية الدولية بالتحرك العاجل وتوفير الرعاية الطبية اللازمة. المصدر: asramedia.ps",

      • "content": "They were the only couple to walk out of ‘Love is Blind, Habibi’ married and now love is blooming more in their paradise. The reality stars announced on the ‘Kris Fade Show’ that they’re tying the knot for the second time and it’s going to be a \"mega\" affair. Those who’ve watched the show already know that the duo couldn’t invite their family and friends to the nuptials that took place on ‘Love is Blind, Habibi’ to maintain the show's secrecy. But all that they couldn’t do back then, they’re ready to do now. “After almost one year and a half, we decided to get married again–and it’s gonna be a mega big wedding,” Mohammed said on the show. His better half Safa, who wore a white veil to drop the news, explained, “This time it’s going to be with our friends and family,\" and added, \"We didn’t feel like it was a wedding-wedding without having family and friends and it’s on May 31, 2025.” A post shared by Kris Fade Show (@krisfadeshow) To help you recall, Safa, a Financial Manager in the energy sector found herself entangled in a love triangle of sorts with businessman Karim and Marketing and Brand Manager Mohammad. But as the pod dates progressed, Safa broke ties with Karim, feeling he could not express his emotions well, and chose to move ahead in the marriage experiment with Mohammad. Theirs was the smoothest journey on the show, where Arab singles connected and committed to marriage sight unseen, despite a few hiccups here and there. Safa and Mohammed’s families officially met and gave the couple their blessings, which was followed by a fairytale wedding ceremony, where they both said ‘I do’ to begin their happily ever after. A post shared by By Rima (@mir.events.official) In the reunion episode that was filmed a year after the initial experiment, the duo confirmed everything’s well in their paradise. Mohammad said, \"My love for her grows daily\" and that tying the knot with Safa was the best decision of his life. Likewise, Safa was blooming with happiness appreciating Mohammad's maturity and their capacity as a couple to communicate and resolve topics of conflicts. Well, now we want the wedding photos soon.",

      • "description": "هم زمان با وقوع انفجار در بندر شهید رجایی، تعدادی از خبرنگاران رسانه‌های رسمی در ایران از «محدود شدن دسترسی به منابع خبری» و «ممنوعیت مصاحبه با افراد محلی» خبر داده‌اند. این خبرنگاران گفته‌اند که به آنها اعلام شده «تنها صدا و سیما مجاز به تهیه گزارش و مصاحبه است.»",
      • "content": "هم‌زمان با وقوع حوادث بزرگ که جامعه نیازمند دریافت اطلاعات در خصوص جزئیات آنها است، منابع خبری مستقل از سوی نهادهای امنیتی محدود یا حذف می‌شوند و در مقابل صدا و سیما به عنوان تنها منبع خبری معتبر معرفی می‌شود. در حالی که بخشی از جامعه به این رسانه اعتماد نداشته و معتقدند گزارش‌های آن با عبور از فیلترهای مختلف، در نهایت قرار است حقایق را پنهان کند. این اتفاق پیش از این نیز در حوادث متروپل آبادان، پلاسکو تهران و قطار تبریز- مشهد تکرار شده است. غیر از حوادث، در خصوص برخی از مفاسد اقتصادی که در کشور رخ می‌دهد، در بسیاری از موارد رسانه‌ها و خبرنگاران مستقل از بررسی جوانب آن منع می‌شوند. مدیریت بحران با سانسور انتشار اطلاعات حادثه بندر شهید رجایی، یکی از بزرگ‌ترین اتفاقات سال‌های اخیر است که روز ۶ اردیبهشت ماه رخ داد. انفجار در این بندر بیش از ۷۰ کشته و ۱۳۰۰ مجروح بر جای گذاشت. محمد جمالیان، عضو کمیسیون بهداشت و درمان مجلس شورای اسلامی و عضو هیات اعزامی رئیس مجلس به بندرعباس در روزهای نخست پس از این حادثه اعلام کرد که «دلایل وقوع حادثه، فقط یک سهل‌انگاری و عدم‌اظهار بود که از سوی یک شرکت انجام شده بود. متاسفانه شرکتی که کانتینرها را وارد کرده بود، مواد شیمیایی را به عنوان مواد کم‌خطر اظهار کرده بود که نتیجه آن این حادثه شده است.» او حتی نام این شرکت را که اقدامش موجب خسارات جانی و مالی بسیار شده، معرفی نکرد. این عدم اعلان، به معنای ایجاد یک پوشش حمایتی برای خاطیان است که راه سوال و جواب‌های بیشتر و کشف حقیقت را می‌بندد. از متروپل آبادان تا هواپیمای اوکراینی نمونه این خطا در ساختمان متروپل آبادان نیز مشاهده شد. ساختمانی که بدون توجه به هشدارهای نظام مهندسی، به بهره‌برداری رسید و در همان روزهای ابتدایی، در خرداد ۱۴۰۱ فرو ریخت. در این حادثه، صدا و سیما از روزهای اول در محل حاضر بود و تلاش می‌کرد پوشش خبری داشته باشد، اما یک‌باره محل حادثه را ترک کرد. پیمان جبلی، رئیس وقت سازمان صداوسیما، در مصاحبه‌ای گفت: «به ما اعلام شد پوشش خبری حادثه را متوقف کنیم.» این نخستین بار بود که یک مقام دولتی اعلام می‌کرد که در اطلاع‌رسانی دچار محدودیت شده‌ا‌ند، چرا که صدا و سیما معمولا همراه و همگام با نهادهای دولتی و امنیتی حرکت می‌کند و تنها رسانه‌ها و خبرنگاران مستقل گرفتار محدودیت می‌شوند. در آن حادثه، فضا به سرعت امنیتی شد و محدودیت‌های زیادی برای خبرنگاران ایجاد شد. دسترسی و گفت‌وگو با منابع رسمی، قطع شد و خبرنگاران حتی برای دسترسی به خانواده‌ها نیز با مشکل مواجه شدند. کار به جایی رسید که غیر از اعمال محدودیت برای خبرنگاران، خانواده‌ها نیز از گفت‌وگو منع شدند و به مراکز انتظامی و یا امنیتی احضار شدند. این احضارها برای یک‌سال ادامه داشت. انهدام هواپیمای اوکراینی در دی ماه سال ۱۳۹۸ جامعه ایرانی را دچار بهت و حیرت فراوانی کرد. علی‌رغم آن که جمهوری اسلامی تلاش کرد آن حادثه را سقوط به دلیل نقص فنی نشان دهد، اما اسناد و مدارک در نهایت منجر به اعتراف صریح به شلیک موشک به هواپیما شد. می‌توان لیستی از این حوادث تهیه کرد که تعداد آنها از شمار انگشتان دو دست خارج می‌شود، حوادثی که خطای انسانی اثبات شده و منابع رسمی آن را اعلام کرده‌اند، اما در تمام موارد خبرنگاران برای انجام تحقیقات و تهیه گزارش محدود و یا منع می‌شوند و متهمان نیز مجازات نمی‌شوند. یکی از خبرنگاران مستقل در حادثه متروپل که بابت انتشار گزارش در خصوص متروپل، بارها احضار و یک‌بار نیز بازداشت شده، به یورونیوز می‌گوید: «ایجاد فضای امنیتی به معنای خاتمه اطلاع‌رسانی است. در چنین شرایطی مشخص می‌شود که خاطیان حادثه با منابع رسمی قدرت ارتباط دارند. به همین دلیل به سرعت راه‌های اطلاع‌رسانی مسدود می‌شود و خبرنگارانی که قصد تحقیق دارند، احضار یا بازداشت می‌شوند.» اتهامات امنیتی یکی از مواردی است که در پرونده خبرنگاران به دلیل پیگیری این موضوعات ثبت می‌شود. به کانال تلگرام یورونیوز فارسی بپیوندید متهمان زیر سایه مصونیت‌های امنیتی انفجار در بندر شهید رجایی، به عنوان یکی از مهم‌ترین مبادی ورود و خروج کالا، غیر از خسارات لحظه‌ای از جمله مرگ و جراحت تعداد زیادی از شهروندان و آلودگی شیمیایی هوا و ایجاد وضعیت اضطراری، پیامدهای آتی نیز به همراه دارد که یکی از آنها تاثیرات اقتصادی در کل کشور است. پس از این حادثه، علی خامنه‌ای، رهبر ایران در دیدار با مسئولان اقتصادی کشور نسبت به ضعف بازرسی در بندر شهید رجایی انتقاد کرد و گفت: «از ۳۰۰۰ تا ۵۰۰۰ کانتینر، تنها ۱۵۰ مورد بررسی می‌شود. این وضع نظارت قابل قبول نیست.» اشاره او، موضوع و مبحثی فراتر از سهل‌انگاری و عدم‌اظهار یک شرکت را باز کرد. او به اسکله‌های غیرقانونی اشاره کرده و یا ورودی‌هایی که در حساب و کتاب گمرک ثبت نمی‌شود. موضوع مهم آن است که حتی رهبر جمهوری اسلامی نیز از آن با خبر است. به معنای دیگر، نهادهای مختلفی از آن مطلع هستند، اما اقدامی برای توقف این روند و شناسایی و معرفی مقصران انجام نمی‌دهند. یکی از وظایف و مسئولیت‌های رسانه‌ها و خبرنگاران شناسایی منابع فساد و معرفی آن است. خبرنگاران مستقل می‌توانند با تحقیق و بررسی، این مراکز و افراد را با مدارک مستدل شناسایی کنند. اما در ایران خبرنگاران اجازه وجود به عرصه روزنامه‌نگاری تحقیقی را ندارند. یکی از خبرنگاران مستقل پس از حادثه بندر شهید رجایی اعلام کرد که با هر کدام از مسوولان و منابع محلی برای انجام گفت‌وگو تماس گرفته، آنها حاضر به گفت‌وگو نشده‌ و گفته‌اند که از اطلاع‌رسانی منع شده و تنها اجازه دارند با صدا و سیما گفت‌وگو کنند. این سد، به معنای بستن راه‌های افشاگری و ادامه روند فساد است. در بسیاری از موارد، نحوه برخورد نهادهای مسئول با متخلفان، این تصور را ایجاد می‌کند که حمایت غیررسمی یا اهمال در پیگیری قضایی، مانع از پاسخگویی قانونی می‌شود.‌ سانسور رسانه‌ای و تکرار خطا نهادهای قضایی، اطلاعاتی و امنیتی همواره با ایجاد فضای امن برای خاطیان پرونده‌هایی که رد پای فساد در آنها دیده‌ می‌شود، فرصت فرار را برای خاطیان ایجاد می‌کنند. این پنهان‌کاری در اصل نوعی همدستی میان نهادهای رسمی با خطاکاران است که زیان‌های جانی و مالی را به مردم تحمیل می‌کنند. غیر از این هزینه‌ها، به دلیل نبود اطلاع‌رسانی شفاف و غیبت رسانه‌های مستقل، هیچ فشاری برای ساختار بیمار و پاسخگویی به افکار عمومی وجود ندارد، این موضوع می‌تواند تداوم دهنده وقوع خطا باشد، چرا که آنها با توسل به منابع مالی به قدرت دست پیدا کرده‌اند و برای ماندگاری دست در دست منابع اصلی قدرت دارند. این همدستی نه تنها به معنای مصونیت از هر گونه مجازات است، بلکه تکرار آن را تسهیل می‌کند. یکی از روزنامه‌نگاران مستقل که تاکنون نتوانسته است به منابع محلی دست پیدا کند، به یورونیوز می‌گوید که این پرونده نیز به سرعت بایگانی می‌شود. مفسدان خود می‌دانند که خطای آن‌ها بی‌جزا است، به همین دلیل نه از قانون واهمه دارند و نه خبرنگاران، چرا که اولین قربانیان هر حادثه‌ای خبرنگاران هستند. ایجاد فضای امنیتی پس از حادثه بندر رجایی، نه یک استثنا، بلکه ادامه‌ی الگویی شناخته‌شده است، ممنوعیت برای خبرنگاران، محدودیت برای روایت، و در نتیجه، عدم اصلاح در ساختار.",

      • "content": "Indian and Pakistani military chiefs held direct talks amid escalating tensions along the Line of Control in Kashmir.In a rare communication, senior military commanders from India and Pakistan discussed recent tensions along the Line of Control (LoC) in Kashmir. The conversation took place over a direct hotline and aimed to address escalating conflicts in the region. The exchange followed a deadly attack in the Pahalgam area of Indian-administered Kashmir, which significantly heightened the already fraught relations between the two nuclear-armed South Asian powers.Indian sources reported that the discussion focused on Pakistan’s “unprovoked” gunfire along the Kashmir border. The exchange of fire had persisted for several consecutive nights, prompting India to accuse Pakistan of violating the 2021 ceasefire agreement. The incident has sparked concerns over further escalation in an already volatile region.A Pakistani official confirmed the phone call but provided few details. This conversation marks the first official military dialogue between the two countries since the deadly attack in Kashmir, which India blames on Pakistan-based militant groups. Pakistan has strongly denied these accusations, calling for a transparent investigation into the incident.meanwhile, Pakistan’s officials have warned of an impending military action from India. Attaullah Tarar, Pakistan’s Information Minister, referenced “credible intelligence” suggesting that India may launch a military operation within the next 24 to 36 hours. Such statements have fueled fears of further conflict.The heightened rhetoric and military preparedness have raised concerns among international observers about the potential for a full-scale military confrontation between India and Pakistan. Both nations, with their nuclear arsenals, have a history of conflict, and the international community has urged restraint from both sides to avoid further escalation.The call between the military leaders offers a glimmer of hope for de-escalation, but the ongoing tensions and accusations on both sides suggest that the situation remains highly volatile. While diplomatic efforts have been made, it is clear that much more is needed to ensure long-term peace and stability in the region.The post India, and Pakistani military chiefs hold talks amid rising tensions appeared first on Khaama Press.",

      • "content": "Celebrity success comes with hefty paychecks, every movie feature, brand sponsorship, and television appearance can easily top an average person's yearly salary. But not all celebs want to keep the money to themselves, some choose to devote their time and resources to help advance the welfare of others and make a positive impact on their community. That’s exactly what prominent South Korean actor Park Seo-joon has recently done. The Itaewon Class actor shared a handwritten note on Instagram, which was penned by the family of a young patient who underwent brain tumour surgery, with the help of Park Seo-joon. “I’m once again determined to live my life diligently. I hope we meet after you have recovered and are in good health,” the actor captioned the letter on social media. The family of the child expressed how they were devastated and in despair upon learning the diagnosis of the deadly disease in 2024. They thought their family was “cursed” until Park Seo-joon’s financial help brought light into their life. “It was a difficult situation, both mentally and financially. When I first found out about my child’s illness, I thought that only our family was unfortunate in the world. I was frustrated. But now that the first hematopoietic stem cell surgery is completed, I am starting to feel a little hopeful. We are still waiting for other treatments, but I believe that my child, who has grown a little more in the meantime, will endure it well,” the family said in the letter. The young child is now recovering and reportedly dreaming of becoming famous so that he can meet Park Seo-joon someday and thank him for extending their family a hand of support. Meanwhile, the actor last made his appearance in the second season of the Netflix K-drama ‘Gyeongseong Creature.’ He will next star in ‘Waiting for Kyungdo.’",

      • "content": "SEOUL: North Korea's newly unveiled warship could have involved Russian help, South Korea's military said on Thursday (May 1) while cautioning it was still conducting \"a more detailed analysis\". Pyongyang recently unveiled a 4,535-tonne destroyer-class vessel named Choe Hyon that some analysts said could be equipped with short-range tactical nuclear missiles. Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) spokesperson Lee Sung-jun told reporters in South Korea that Russia may have given help with the warship. \"Looking at the weapons and equipment that were revealed, we believe that there is a possibility that they received technology, funds or assistance from Russia,\" Lee said. \"We are conducting a more detailed analysis.\" North Korea confirmed on Monday for the first time it had deployed troops to Russia to support Moscow in its war in Ukraine. The two countries also announced this week that they had started building the first road bridge linking the two neighbours. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw the first day of a two-day weapons test of the vessel this week, according to Pyongyang's official Korean Central News Agency, during which he ordered officials to work on \"accelerating the nuclear armament of the navy\". North Korea has said the destroyer, which it claimed is equipped with the \"most powerful weapons\", would \"enter into operation early next year\". During the test, Kim said the North's ship-based firepower system was \"effectively combined\" with the \"most powerful strike means including supersonic cruise missile, strategic cruise missile and tactical ballistic missile\". Lee said its deployment is likely to require more time. \"In the case of warships it takes several years to build and even after completion it takes additional time for them to become operational,\" the JCS spokesperson said. \"So although the Choe Hyon has been unveiled it seems likely that considerably more time will be needed for its (operational) deployment.\"",

اسکوتر از محل فرار کرده، اما پلیس او را تعقیب و بازداشت کرده است. پولیس روز چهارشنبه تأیید کرد که فرد بازداشت‌شده کمتر از ۱۸ سال سن دارد. در یک نشست خبری، پولیس سویدن اعلام کرد که هر سه قربانی این حمله بین ۱۵ تا ۲۰ سال سن داشته‌اند، هرچند رئیس پولیس منطقه، اریک اکرلوند، گفت که هویت آن‌ها هنوز به‌طور رسمی تأیید نشده است. به گزارش رسانه‌های سویدنی، پولیس این احتمال را نیز بررسی می‌کند که این رویداد ممکن است با فعالیت‌های باندهای جنایی مرتبط باشد. اداره استخباراتی کوریایی جنوبی اعلام کرده است که حدود ۶۰۰ سرباز کوریای شمالی که در جنگ روسیه و اوکراین شرکت داشته‌اند، کشته شده‌اند. به گفته این نهاد، تاکنون در مجموع حدود ۴۷۰۰ سرباز کوریای شمالی در این جنگ دچار تلفات شده‌اند. براساس گزارش ارائه‌شده به پارلمان کوریای جنوبی، از جنوری تا مارچ، حدود ۲۰۰۰ سرباز کوریای شمالی از طریق طیاره و قطار به کشورشان بازگردانده شده‌اند. اجساد کشته‌شدگان نیز پیش از انتقال، در روسیه سوزانده شده و خاکستر آن‌ها به کوریای شمالی فرستاده شده است. این گزارش پس از آن منتشر شده که دو روز پیش، کوریای شمالی برای نخستین بار تأیید کرد نیروهایی را برای حمایت از روسیه و بازپس‌گیری مناطقی در ولایت کورسک از اوکراینی‌ها، به روسیه اعزام کرده است. ازبکستان اعلام کرده است که به‌زودی با افغانستان یک مرکز تجاری مشترک ایجاد می‌کند و در ماه جاری میلادی هیأتی عالی‌رتبه برای گفت‌وگو درباره گسترش روابط تجاری به افغانستان خواهد فرستاد. این موضوع را معاون وزیر صنعت، سرمایه‌گذاری و تجارت ازبکستان روز چهارشنبه در تاشکند، در دیدار با هیأت طالبان مطرح کرده است. براساس اعلامیه وزارت صنعت و تجارت طالبان، احمدالله زاهد وزیر این وزارت، به‌منظور گفت‌وگو درباره مشکلات تاجران افغان در ازبکستان به تاشکند رفته است. وزیر تجارت و صنعت ازبکستان وعده داده که مشکلات تاجران افغان را حل خواهد کرد و برای بررسی راه‌های گسترش روابط تجاری، هیأتی را به کابل اعزام خواهد کرد. کمیشنری عالی سازمان ملل در امور پناهندگان (UNHCR) اعلام کرده که در ماه اپریل امسال، بیش از ۲۵۰ هزار افغان از ایران و پاکستان به کشورشان بازگشته‌اند که بیشتر آن‌ها به‌دلایل فشار و اجبار برگردانده شده‌اند؛ موضوعی که بحران بشری افغانستان را وخیم‌تر کرده است. بر اساس آمار این اداره ملل متحد، حدود ۹۶ هزار تن از این افراد به اجبار اخراج شده‌اند، در حالی‌که نزدیک به ۱۵۴ هزار نفر دیگر به‌طور داوطلبانه بازگشته‌اند. یوان اچ سی آر هشدار داده که بازگشت گسترده افغان‌ها فشار مضاعفی بر منابع محدود کمک‌های بشردوستانه وارد کرده و شرایط میلیون‌ها انسان نیازمند به کمک را وخیم‌تر کرده است. تعدادی از افسران بازنشسته اردوی امریکا از دونالد ترمپ، رئیس‌جمهور امریکا خواسته‌اند که برنامه اسکان مجدد متحدان افغان را ادامه دهد. آن‌ها هشدار داده‌اند که رها کردن این برنامه می‌تواند به اعتماد متحدان جهانی ایالات متحده آسیب بزند. این درخواست در حالی مطرح شده که برخی از فرمان‌های اجرایی ترمپ که موقتاً پذیرش پناهندگان را متوقف کرده بودند، رو به پایان هستند. این فرمان‌ها موجب تعلیق برنامه‌هایی شده‌اند که برای اسکان افغان‌هایی در نظر گرفته شده بود که با نیروهای امریکایی همکاری کرده بودند. تا کنون دولت ترمپ مشخص نکرده که آیا این برنامه‌ها از سر گرفته خواهد شد یا به‌طور کامل متوقف می‌شود. بر اساس گزارش فاکس نیوز، در ۱۰ اپریل، دفتر مدیریت و بودجه قصر سفید پیشنهادهایی به وزارت خارجه ارایه کرده که شامل توقف حمایت مالی از نهاد هماهنگ‌کننده انتقال افغان‌ها (CARE) می‌شود. طبق این پیشنهاد، حدود ۶۰۰ میلیون دالر بودجه باقی‌مانده برای پایان تدریجی این برنامه تا پایان سال مالی ۲۰۲۵ اختصاص خواهد یافت. امروز، اول می، روز جهانی کارگر است. سازمان بین‌الملی کار در وبسایت خود به مناسبت این روز نوشته که هوش مصنوعی رو به رشد است و بسیاری از افراد کارشان را از دست دادند. شعار امسال «صحت و مصونیت در کار» شعاری که بر اهمیت سلامت و ایمنی در محیط‌های کاری تأکید دارد. این در حالی‌ست که در افغانستان هزاران کارگر در شرایط دشوار، بدون بیمه صحی، تجهیزات ایمنی و حمایت قانونی کار می‌کنند. پیش ازین بسیاری کارگران در معدن ذغال سنگ و کارهای ساختمانی براثر بد بودن شرایط کاری جان باختند. مرکز خبرنگاران افغانستان اعلام کرده است که حکومت طالبان نشر تصاویر موجودات زنده از طریق رسانه‌های محلی در ولایت‌های فاریاب و دایکندی را نیز ممنوع کرده است. این مرکز روز چهارشنبه (دهم ثور) در خبرنامه‌ای گفت که با این اعلام، شمار ولایت‌هایی که در آن‌ها نشر تصاویر زنده جان ممنوع شده‌، به ۱۷ ولایت رسیده است. وزارت امر به معروف و نهی از منکر حکومت طالبان پیش‌تر گفته است که این ممنوعیت را به‌صورت تدریجی در سراسر افغانستان تطبیق می‌کند. ممنوعیت پخش تصاویر موجودات زنده بخشی از قانونی است که این وزارت در ماه اسد سال گذشته اعلام و در جریده رسمی منتشر کرد. نهادهای مختلف بشمول دفتر هیئت معاونت سازمان ملل متحد در افغانستان، یوناما از ایجاد این قانون انتقاد کرده و از طالبان خواسته‌اند آن را لغو کنند.",

      • "description": "The People's Alliance for Reform's manifesto, titled Contract with Singapore, was released on the last day of campaigning.",
      • "content": "SINGAPORE: The People's Alliance for Reform (PAR) has called for a freeze on new S Passes and barring permanent residents from buying resale HDB flats in its manifesto. The alliance also pledged to \"significantly\" cut net migration and \"ensure that Singaporeans are given priority for jobs\". Dubbed a Contract with Singapore, the manifesto was posted on Facebook by PAR candidate Prabu Ramachandran on Thursday (May 1), the final day of campaigning before the May 3 General Election. The PAR comprises the Democratic Progressive Party, Peoples Voice and Reform Party. It is fielding 13 candidates across six constituencies – Jalan Besar and Tanjong Pagar Group Representation Constituencies (GRCs), and Potong Pasir , Radin Mas , Yio Chu Kang and Queenstown Single Member Constituencies (SMCs). In a foreword to the manifesto, PAR secretary-general Lim Tean said that the People's Action Party's (PAP) policies have allowed \"people of foreign origin to flood our nation\". \"This has led to a feeling of helplessness as so many Singaporeans now feel second-class in their homeland as they are displaced or replaced by foreigners in their jobs, which is the reservoir of dignity of any person,\" he continued. Giving Singaporeans priority for jobs is one key area in the PAR's roughly 2,000-word manifesto. The PAR said that \"unfair treaties\" like Singapore's Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (CECA) with India have \"crippled many Singaporean workers\". \"PAR is the only party which has vigorously opposed CECA and wants it abolished,\" the manifesto read. The alliance also proposed a policy that \"every employer will have to demonstrate exhaustively that no Singaporean is capable or available to work a particular job before a foreigner can be employed to do the same\". \"We will also call for the immediate suspension of the issuance of new S Passes,\" said PAR, adding that this would allow Singaporeans to take up the jobs instead. S Passes are issued to skilled migrant workers who perform specialised roles. The qualifying salary for new S Pass applications, currently S$3,150, is set to rise to S$3,300 from Sep 1. Another key area is to make public housing more affordable. PAR said that \"much of the surge in HDB resale prices can be attributed to the policy of allowing permanent residents to buy resale HDB flats\". The alliance said it will fight to prevent permanent residents from buying resale flats. Currently, permanent residents can own a resale flat if they form a family nucleus with a citizen, or if all the proposed owners have held permanent residency for at least three years. To bring down the cost of Build-to-Order flats, the PAR also proposed \"incremental reductions of 5 per cent in the land cost component every six months\". On immigration policy, the PAR criticised the government for \"allowing huge numbers of foreigners to enter and live in our country\" and making \"no comprehensive effort\" to integrate them. \"PAR will fight to significantly reduce net migration. We believe this is absolutely essential in order that our social cohesion is not fractured and our Singapore identity diluted,\" it said, without elaborating on the reduction. The manifesto also reiterated proposals to provide free school meals, healthcare and education up to university for every Singaporean child. The PAR said this would be funded by: The PAR also called to abolish the offices of the five mayors in Singapore – who earn about S$660,000 (US$505,000) a year each – and reduce the prime minister's salary by 70 per cent. \"Because the PAP leaders have such astronomical incomes, they have been insensitive to the effects which their policies have on the people,\" read the manifesto. \"We must make our political class more sensitive to the effects government policies have on the ordinary Singaporean.\"",

      • "content": "A massive wildfire broke out near Jerusalem, forcing evacuations. Israel requested international aid as firefighters struggle to control the blaze.A massive wildfire broke out on Wednesday near Jerusalem, prompting evacuations of several neighborhoods as Israeli authorities appealed to the international community for emergency assistance. The fire quickly spread through forested areas surrounding the capital, triggering alarm among residents and officials.The blaze erupted near Highway 1, the main route connecting Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, causing scenes of chaos. Videos widely shared on social media showed motorists abandoning their vehicles and fleeing on foot as flames encroached on the roadway. The dense smoke reduced visibility and disrupted traffic across key areas.Thick clouds of smoke engulfed parts of western Jerusalem, forcing emergency services to close roads and divert traffic. According to Israeli media, several people sustained injuries due to smoke inhalation and minor burns. As of now, no fatalities have been reported.Given the scale and intensity of the fire, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that Israel had requested immediate international assistance. Italy and Croatia pledged to dispatch firefighting aircraft, while the Israeli Foreign Ministry said talks were underway with Greece, Cyprus, and Bulgaria to provide additional aerial support.More than 120 firefighting teams, backed by specialized planes and helicopters, have been battling the flames around the clock. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) also deployed rescue units to support the efforts, although strong winds and the region’s dry climate have severely hampered progress.In an unexpected development, Israeli police arrested one individual suspected of involvement in starting the fire. Authorities have not yet disclosed an official cause, but investigations are ongoing amid concerns about possible arson.Environmental experts warn that climate change and prolonged drought conditions are increasing the frequency and intensity of wildfires in the region. The recent blaze highlights the urgent need for coordinated fire prevention strategies and enhanced regional cooperation in disaster response.The Jerusalem wildfire has reignited debates on Israel’s emergency preparedness and forest management practices. As the country awaits further international support, citizens remain on high alert, with officials urging vigilance and compliance with evacuation directives.The post Massive fire in Jerusalem; Israel seeks international aid appeared first on Khaama Press.",

      • "content": "SINGAPORE: The government has not shown signs of weakening despite losing Group Representation Constituencies (GRCs) with Cabinet ministers in past elections, said Progress Singapore Party (PSP) secretary-general Leong Mun Wai on Thursday (May 1). \"Would a weak government be able to pass through or bulldoze the GST in 2022?” He asked, referring to the increase in the Goods and Services Tax from 7 to 9 per cent announced during Budget 2022. Mr Leong was speaking during a walkabout at Boon Lay Place Market with the PSP team contesting West Coast-Jurong West GRC on the final day of campaigning before Polling Day. His comments were in response to Health Minister Ong Ye Kung , who said at a rally on Wednesday that a further GRC loss for the People's Action Party (PAP) could destabilise Singapore and risk the country \"crashing\". Calling Mr Ong's remarks \"out of this world\", Mr Leong said: \"PAP has lost ministers and GRCs before. Has that weakened the government in the past few years or past 10 years? \"A strong government with all the power to amend the Constitution – only such a government can bulldoze the GST through the parliament,\" he added. \"So, the argument that the minister had about losing some ministers of GRCs to weaken the government is not quite accurate.\" PAP BROUGHT ONG YE KUNG BACK Fellow PSP candidate and former Non-Constituency MP Hazel Poa also responded to Mr Ong’s remarks, pointing out that he lost the 2011 election at Aljunied GRC as part of a PAP team led by then Foreign Minister George Yeo. “But what happened after that? He was brought back in the next election, at another GRC,” she said. Mr Ong was fielded in Sembawang GRC in 2015, where he was elected and later appointed Health Minister. The PSP team for West Coast-Jurong West GRC is led by party founder Tan Cheng Bock, and includes Mr Leong, Ms Poa and new candidates Sumarleki Amjah and Sani Ismail. They are contesting against a PAP team led by National Development Minister Desmond Lee, alongside incumbent MPs Shawn Huang and Ang Wei Neng, and new candidates Cassandra Lee and Hamid Razak. When asked why Prime Minister Lawrence Wong and Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong have focused more on rebutting the Workers’ Party (WP) rather than addressing PSP directly, Dr Tan said it showed the party’s credibility. “I think they find that the ground we have built for the party is strong enough,” he said. “You take us, we can reply – our rebuttals are there ... they realise that our party is a party that has got a lot of meat, it's got a lot of substance.” Dr Tan added that the limited direct confrontation with top PAP leaders was a “testimony to the fact that we want to have a fair fight”. He said the PSP does not have to resort to shouting to get its points across, though he acknowledged “a little bit” of over-enthusiasm after a boisterous chanting match broke out between PSP and PAP supporters at a Jurong West coffee shop on Wednesday. The party, he said, has proven itself to be a “very responsible” opposition in parliament, and Mr Leong and Ms Poa have shown that in their NCMP roles over the last five years. WARM RECEPTION AT TAMAN JURONG After their stop at Boon Lay Place Market, the PSP team visited Taman Jurong Market and Food Centre, where the reception from the crowd was noticeably warmer. The market is located in Taman Jurong – previously the ward of former Senior Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam before he resigned to run for the presidency. The PSP team could hardly finish their coffee as residents approached them for chats and photos. Several residents greeted Dr Tan, 85, while others shook hands and took selfies with Mr Leong and Ms Poa. In the 2020 General Election, PSP ran in West Coast GRC and narrowly lost with 48.31 per cent of the vote, earning two NCMP seats as the best-performing losing team.",

      • "description": "HONG KONG, May 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- An international consortium led by The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK)'s Faculty of Medicine (CU Medicine) and the University of Calgary in Canada has conducted a global epidemiological study on Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). It found that this chronic gut condition follows a four-stage epidemiological evolution across different regions of the world. Analysing data from more than 500 epidemiological studies across 80 regions in the past century, the team generated a machine-learning model for classification of stages which enables health-care systems to prepare for the growing burden on healthcare arising from the prevalence of IBD. Results of the study have been published in the leading scientific journal Nature. Professor Gilaad Kaplan (left) and Professor Siew Ng Epidemiological model informs trend of IBD burden for the next 20 years The Global IBD Visualization of Epidemiology Studies in the 21st Century (GIVES‐21) consortium, led by Professor Gilaad Kaplan of University of Calgary and Professor Siew Ng of CU Medicine, synthesised data from 522 population-based studies across 82 geographical regions over the past century. They observed differences in IBD incidence and prevalence across various geographical areas over the past century suggest that epidemiological patterns shift through time. To further explore the trends and characterise the epidemiology of IBD independent of geography and time, researchers developed a machine-learning model that classifies regions by epidemiologic stage, maps spatiotemporal transitions across stages and models a theoretical prevalence stage for the next two decades. They also demonstrated a stage where IBD prevalence reaches equilibrium. (Please refer to Table 1 for details.) Professor Gilaad Kaplan, Professor of Medicine at the Cumming School of Medicine, the University of Calgary, said: \"Our analysis, drawing on a century's worth of historical epidemiologic data, enables health authorities to tailor interventions – whether clinical, policy driven or preventive.\" Incidence rapidly rising in China and Malaysia while Japan and South Korea seeing an acceleration in prevalence Study data showed epidemiological stages vary among regions in Asia. Japan and South Korea, which underwent rapid industrialisation in the latter half of the 20th century, have reported prevalence exceeding 0.1%, placing them on the brink of transitioning towards stage 3. In contrast, nations like China and Malaysia, which industrialised later, entered stage 2 more recently. Dr Joyce Mak, Honorary Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine and Therapeutics at CU Medicine, said: \"Today, we stand at a critical juncture as we address the alarming rise in IBD in newly industrialised countries such as China and Malaysia. This increase is not just a statistic; it represents the health and well-being of millions of people. As these nations embrace rapid industrialisation and urbanisation, we must prioritise public health initiatives, enhance awareness, and invest in research to understand underlying causes of this disease.\" Professor Siew Ng, Croucher Professor in Medical Sciences at CU Medicine, Director of the Microbiota I-Center (MagIC) and New Cornerstone Investigator, said: \"Our GIVES‐21 consortium is conducting epidemiologic surveillance studies in low- and middle-income countries, as the disease is evolving in these regions. We are seeing a paradigm shift of IBD accelerating in these regions and we will need to prepare our clinical infrastructure and personnel to manage this complex and costly disease. We are planning research to focus on preventive strategies targeting the gut microbiome, diet and environmental exposures to reduce disease incidence.\" This study was supported by The Leona M. and Harry B.

Under the deal, signed after months of tense talks, the two countries will set up a reconstruction investment fund to bolster Ukraine’s war-hit economy. The agreement was reflective of commitment on both sides to durable peace and prosperity in Ukraine, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Ukraine is blessed with vast reserves of critical minerals like graphite, titanium and lithium, which can be used in renewable energy, military applications and industrial infrastructure. In a statement the Treasury said on Wednesday the Reconstruction Investment Fund recognised the “significant financial and material support” Ukraine had received from the US since Russia invaded it in early 2022. “No state or person who financed or supplied the Russian war machine will be allowed to benefit from the reconstruction of Ukraine,” the statement added. After initialing the deal in Washington, Ukraine’s Deputy Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko wrote on X the new fund would “attract global investment into our country”. In exchange for future US security assistance, Kiev will grant Washington access to some of its natural resources, according to the draft agreement. Expected to be signed in February, the deal was scuttled in the wake of testy exchanges at the White House between President Donald Trump and Zelensky. PAN Monitor/mud",

The actress recently appeared on Yoo Jae-suk's show ' You Quiz On The Block ', where she recalled auditioning for the role of Cho Yeo-jeong's daughter, played by actress Jung Ji-so. \"I don't clearly remember it. It was amazing, like seeing a celebrity. Director Bong Joon-ho said I resembled actress Cho Yeo-jeong. Since I was supposed to be her daughter, I thought it would be nice to resemble her, and I heard I was one of the candidates,\" said Youn-jung, according to ChosunBiz.

      • "content": "ملل متحد می گوید با همکاری شرکای خود برای عودت کنندگان به افغانستان درننگرهار وسراسر کشور سرپناه می سازد. برنامه اسکان بشر ملل متحد ( (UN-Habitat Afghanistan ملل متحد درخبرنامه امروز خود در شبکه اجتماعی اکس گفت داشتن سرپناه امن برای هزاران نفر افغان های عودت کننده به کشور گام اولی برای یک زندگی باعزت است. کمیشنری عالی سازمان ملل در امور پناهندگان (UNHCR) اعلام کرده که در ماه اپریل امسال، بیش از ۲۵۰ هزار افغان از ایران و پاکستان به کشورشان بازگشته‌اند که بیشتر آن‌ها به‌دلایل فشار و اجبار برگردانده شده‌اند؛ موضوعی که بحران بشری افغانستان را وخیم‌تر کرده است. روز چهارشنبه ۹۵۵خانواده از عبورگاه های مختلف به کشور عودت کرده اند. گزارش خبرگزاری دولتی باختر زیرکنترول طالبان می افزاید که از جمله ۲۷۰ خانواده از طریق تورخم ننگرهار، ۳۰۰ خانواده از طریق سپین بولدک کندهار، ۱۴۲ خانواده از طریق پل ابریشم نیمروز ، ۶ خانواده از طریق بهرامچه هلمند و ۲۳۷ خانواده از طریق اسلام قلعه هرات به کشور عودت کرده اند. ملل متحد می گوید که با همکاری شرکای خود برای عودت کنندگان درسراسر کشور سرپناه می سازد. کمیشنری عالی سازمان ملل در امور پناهندگان (UNHCR) اعلام کرده که در ماه اپریل امسال، بیش از ۲۵۰ هزار افغان از ایران و پاکستان به کشورشان بازگشته‌اند. این توافق پس از آن امضا شد که دونالد ترمپ، رئیس‌جمهور امریکا، چندین هفته پیاپی فشار وارد کرد تا اوکراین در قبال میلیاردها دالر کمک نظامی و مالی که واشنگتن برای دفاع از این کشور در برابر تهاجم روسیه فراهم کرده، غرامت پرداخت کند. یک مقام اوکراینی روز چهارشنبه اعلام کرد که از طرف دولت این کشور توافق‌نامه‌ای را امضا کرده که «صندوق سرمایه‌گذاری بازسازی امریکا و اوکراین» را ایجاد می‌کند. هدف این توافق، فراهم‌کردن یک محیط مناسب برای رشد اقتصادی هر دو کشور است. یولیا سویریدینکو، معاون اول صدراعظم اوکراین، در صفحه ایکس (توییتر سابق) نوشته است: «ما با همکاری ایالات متحده صندوقی ایجاد می‌کنیم که سرمایه‌گذاری بین‌المللی را به کشورمان جذب کند.» پولیس سویدن یک نفر را در ارتباط با تیراندازی روز سه‌شنبه در شهر اوپسالا بازداشت کرده است. به گزارش رسانه‌ها، یک جوان در مرکز شهر، در یک سلمانی به سوی مردم تیراندازی کرده و سپس با استفاده از یک اسکوتر از محل فرار کرده، اما پلیس او را تعقیب و بازداشت کرده است. پولیس روز چهارشنبه تأیید کرد که فرد بازداشت‌شده کمتر از ۱۸ سال سن دارد. در یک نشست خبری، پولیس سویدن اعلام کرد که هر سه قربانی این حمله بین ۱۵ تا ۲۰ سال سن داشته‌اند، هرچند رئیس پولیس منطقه، اریک اکرلوند، گفت که هویت آن‌ها هنوز به‌طور رسمی تأیید نشده است. به گزارش رسانه‌های سویدنی، پولیس این احتمال را نیز بررسی می‌کند که این رویداد ممکن است با فعالیت‌های باندهای جنایی مرتبط باشد. اداره استخباراتی کوریایی جنوبی اعلام کرده است که حدود ۶۰۰ سرباز کوریای شمالی که در جنگ روسیه و اوکراین شرکت داشته‌اند، کشته شده‌اند. به گفته این نهاد، تاکنون در مجموع حدود ۴۷۰۰ سرباز کوریای شمالی در این جنگ دچار تلفات شده‌اند. براساس گزارش ارائه‌شده به پارلمان کوریای جنوبی، از جنوری تا مارچ، حدود ۲۰۰۰ سرباز کوریای شمالی از طریق طیاره و قطار به کشورشان بازگردانده شده‌اند. اجساد کشته‌شدگان نیز پیش از انتقال، در روسیه سوزانده شده و خاکستر آن‌ها به کوریای شمالی فرستاده شده است. این گزارش پس از آن منتشر شده که دو روز پیش، کوریای شمالی برای نخستین بار تأیید کرد نیروهایی را برای حمایت از روسیه و بازپس‌گیری مناطقی در ولایت کورسک از اوکراینی‌ها، به روسیه اعزام کرده است. ازبکستان اعلام کرده است که به‌زودی با افغانستان یک مرکز تجاری مشترک ایجاد می‌کند و در ماه جاری میلادی هیأتی عالی‌رتبه برای گفت‌وگو درباره گسترش روابط تجاری به افغانستان خواهد فرستاد. این موضوع را معاون وزیر صنعت، سرمایه‌گذاری و تجارت ازبکستان روز چهارشنبه در تاشکند، در دیدار با هیأت طالبان مطرح کرده است. براساس اعلامیه وزارت صنعت و تجارت طالبان، احمدالله زاهد وزیر این وزارت، به‌منظور گفت‌وگو درباره مشکلات تاجران افغان در ازبکستان به تاشکند رفته است. وزیر تجارت و صنعت ازبکستان وعده داده که مشکلات تاجران افغان را حل خواهد کرد و برای بررسی راه‌های گسترش روابط تجاری، هیأتی را به کابل اعزام خواهد کرد. کمیشنری عالی سازمان ملل در امور پناهندگان (UNHCR) اعلام کرده که در ماه اپریل امسال، بیش از ۲۵۰ هزار افغان از ایران و پاکستان به کشورشان بازگشته‌اند که بیشتر آن‌ها به‌دلایل فشار و اجبار برگردانده شده‌اند؛ موضوعی که بحران بشری افغانستان را وخیم‌تر کرده است. بر اساس آمار این اداره ملل متحد، حدود ۹۶ هزار تن از این افراد به اجبار اخراج شده‌اند، در حالی‌که نزدیک به ۱۵۴ هزار نفر دیگر به‌طور داوطلبانه بازگشته‌اند. یوان اچ سی آر هشدار داده که بازگشت گسترده افغان‌ها فشار مضاعفی بر منابع محدود کمک‌های بشردوستانه وارد کرده و شرایط میلیون‌ها انسان نیازمند به کمک را وخیم‌تر کرده است. تعدادی از افسران بازنشسته اردوی امریکا از دونالد ترمپ، رئیس‌جمهور امریکا خواسته‌اند که برنامه اسکان مجدد متحدان افغان را ادامه دهد. آن‌ها هشدار داده‌اند که رها کردن این برنامه می‌تواند به اعتماد متحدان جهانی ایالات متحده آسیب بزند. این درخواست در حالی مطرح شده که برخی از فرمان‌های اجرایی ترمپ که موقتاً پذیرش پناهندگان را متوقف کرده بودند، رو به پایان هستند. این فرمان‌ها موجب تعلیق برنامه‌هایی شده‌اند که برای اسکان افغان‌هایی در نظر گرفته شده بود که با نیروهای امریکایی همکاری کرده بودند. تا کنون دولت ترمپ مشخص نکرده که آیا این برنامه‌ها از سر گرفته خواهد شد یا به‌طور کامل متوقف می‌شود. بر اساس گزارش فاکس نیوز، در ۱۰ اپریل، دفتر مدیریت و بودجه قصر سفید پیشنهادهایی به وزارت خارجه ارایه کرده که شامل توقف حمایت مالی از نهاد هماهنگ‌کننده انتقال افغان‌ها (CARE) می‌شود. طبق این پیشنهاد، حدود ۶۰۰ میلیون دالر بودجه باقی‌مانده برای پایان تدریجی این برنامه تا پایان سال مالی ۲۰۲۵ اختصاص خواهد یافت. امروز، اول می، روز جهانی کارگر است. سازمان بین‌الملی کار در وبسایت خود به مناسبت این روز نوشته که هوش مصنوعی رو به رشد است و بسیاری از افراد کارشان را از دست دادند. شعار امسال «صحت و مصونیت در کار» شعاری که بر اهمیت سلامت و ایمنی در محیط‌های کاری تأکید دارد. این در حالی‌ست که در افغانستان هزاران کارگر در شرایط دشوار، بدون بیمه صحی، تجهیزات ایمنی و حمایت قانونی کار می‌کنند. پیش ازین بسیاری کارگران در معدن ذغال سنگ و کارهای ساختمانی براثر بد بودن شرایط کاری جان باختند. مرکز خبرنگاران افغانستان اعلام کرده است که حکومت طالبان نشر تصاویر موجودات زنده از طریق رسانه‌های محلی در ولایت‌های فاریاب و دایکندی را نیز ممنوع کرده است. این مرکز روز چهارشنبه (دهم ثور) در خبرنامه‌ای گفت که با این اعلام، شمار ولایت‌هایی که در آن‌ها نشر تصاویر زنده جان ممنوع شده‌، به ۱۷ ولایت رسیده است. وزارت امر به معروف و نهی از منکر حکومت طالبان پیش‌تر گفته است که این ممنوعیت را به‌صورت تدریجی در سراسر افغانستان تطبیق می‌کند. ممنوعیت پخش تصاویر موجودات زنده بخشی از قانونی است که این وزارت در ماه اسد سال گذشته اعلام و در جریده رسمی منتشر کرد. نهادهای مختلف بشمول دفتر هیئت معاونت سازمان ملل متحد در افغانستان، یوناما از ایجاد این قانون انتقاد کرده و از طالبان خواسته‌اند آن را لغو کنند.",

      • "content": "India has closed its airspace to all Pakistani flights amid rising tensions following a deadly attack in Indian-administered Kashmir.India has closed its airspace to all Pakistani-registered flights—including both commercial and military aircraft—amid escalating tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors. The ban took effect on April 30 and is expected to remain in place until at least May 23, 2025.According to Indian media reports on Wednesday, April 30, the decision applies to all operational, chartered, or leased flights originating from or affiliated with Pakistan. This marks one of the most sweeping aviation restrictions between the two nations in recent years.This move follows a series of punitive measures by New Delhi after the deadly terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Indian-administered Kashmir, on April 22. The incident, which killed 26 tourists and injured 17, prompted India to suspend the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty, cancel all bilateral trade, revoke visas for Pakistani nationals, and close key border crossings including the Attari-Wagah route.Diplomatic relations between India and Pakistan have sharply deteriorated since the Pahalgam attack, which India has blamed on the Pakistan-based militant group “The Resistance Front,” linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba. Pakistan has denied the allegations and called for an independent investigation into the incident.The global community, including the United Nations, the European Union, and regional powers such as China and the Gulf states, has urged both India and Pakistan to exercise restraint. With both countries possessing nuclear weapons and historical rivalries, further escalation could have severe consequences for regional and global stability.Aviation analysts note that India’s airspace closure not only affects Pakistan’s international connectivity but may also impact broader South Asian flight routes, causing longer travel times and increased fuel costs. In 2019, a similar closure led to millions in losses for Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) and disrupted regional aviation logistics.Security experts believe India’s latest actions are part of a calibrated pressure strategy intended to isolate Pakistan diplomatically and economically, while also signaling domestic resolve. However, they warn that such aggressive posturing could backfire if not coupled with diplomatic engagement.with tensions at their highest in years, experts are calling for back-channel diplomacy and third-party mediation to prevent a full-scale conflict. The weeks ahead will be crucial in determining whether the subcontinent steps back from the brink or enters a deeper phase of hostility.The post India closes airspace to Pakistani flights amid rising tensions appeared first on Khaama Press.",

      • "content": "The terror attack that killed 26 people at Pahalgam, Kashmir, ultimately underlines India’s chronic internal security lapses. Unless the Indian government stops shifting blame to Pakistan and addresses its own institutional shortcomings, similar incidents will inevitably occur. Predictably, the Narendra Modi government’s initial reaction was to attribute blame to Pakistan — a leitmotif in India’s deflective security narrative. Indeed, just five minutes after news of the incident spread, an Indian security agency blamed Pakistan without any corroborating evidence on social media. The Resistance Front (TRF), an armed group fighting for Kashmir’s secession from India, has claimed responsibility for the attack. locally in response to the Indian government’s move to strip Kashmir of its semi-autonomous status in 2019. India designated TRF a terrorist organization in 2023. The Pahalgam killings reveal several severe realities, namely a complex failure of India’s domestic security framework, a complacency culture that prevails in its intelligence evaluations and an obvious institutional negligence. The Modi government’s rare acceptance of its failure is arguably the first such admission in over a decade, underscoring just how grave the security shortcomings were at Pahalgam. The attack was not a unique event but rather the most recent in a series of Indian security lapses. Kashmir has a three-tiered security framework comprised of the Indian Army’s 3rd Rashtriya Rifles, the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and the Jammu & Kashmir Police. The attackers, clad in Indian Army uniforms, infiltrated the Pahalgam resort, fired around 40 shots within a 15–20-minute interval, and escaped capture without engagement with any security forces. That attackers in a heavily guarded area could so easily obtain Indian Army uniforms is obviously concerning. The lack of surveillance cameras, drones or a basic medical response system in a tourist destination where more than 1,000 people visit every day underlines the degree of the security failure. The CRPF’s protracted response – exceeding one hour to cover seven kilometers, owing to inadequate infrastructure –was the epitome of operational disarray. Visitors and pony handlers transported the victims, highlighting the Indian state’s lack of readiness. To be sure, the region isn’t new to terror attacks. Prior to Pahalgam, ten attacks have taken place in the area since the 1990s. The government’s rationale that terrorists would refrain from attacking tourists because of their economic significance is now clearly a flawed presumption and further exposes the government’s perilous disconnection from actual circumstances on the ground. It also illustrates a wider inclination to favor political narratives over empirical danger evaluations. Despite intelligence alerts regarding possible threats, Pahalgam’s Baisaran Valley has been open to tourists since 2020. This façade of normalcy in an area plagued by militancy allowed for the tragedy. On one hand, Modi’s government has vigorously promoted Kashmir as a secure tourism destination, using visitation statistics to reinforce assertions all is well when it isn’t. At the same time, it failed to implement any fundamental security measures for the growing number of travelers to the area. The assault has not only ravaged the victims and their families; it has also endangered the region’s peace and security by instinctively heightening tensions with Pakistan. After the incident, India announced its unilateral abeyance of the Indus Waters Treaty, which Pakistan has said it considers an “act of war.” Troops have exchanged gunfire across the border in recent days, heightening the risk of a new armed conflict. Indian media accusations alleging a former Pakistani para commando’s complicity in the Pahalgam attack lack substantiated proof and seem part and parcel of a calculated propaganda drive to blame Pakistan and deflect attention from India’s own security failings. Rather than spreading unfounded and dangerous allegations, India should invite an unbiased third party, such as the United Nations, to independently investigate the incident and reveal its findings. Unsubstantiated accusations run the risk of exacerbating tensions between the two nuclear powers, jeopardizing regional, if not global, peace. India’s Unified Command system in Kashmir, frequently lauded as a paradigm of military coordination, disintegrated completely during the Pahalgam assault. The assailants’ unobserved ingress and egress have exposed significant deficiencies in surveillance and inter-agency coordination. Pointing fingers at Pakistan cannot obscure these shortcomings, which by now are plain for the Indian public to see. India must implement at least three immediate measures to avoid similar tragedies in the future. First, it must undertake an impartial inquiry into the security services’ deficiencies, with results publicly disclosed, to re-establish credibility at home and abroad. Second, it must revamp intelligence-sharing protocols to guarantee real-time collaboration among agencies, which despite claims to the contrary, are clearly lacking. Third, it must allocate resources to infrastructure, including rapid-response units, surveillance technology and medical evacuation systems, to safeguard at-risk regions like Kashmir. The Pahalgam incident should serve as an urgent wake-up call for India and its security services. Unless the government stops shifting blame to Pakistan and addresses its own institutional shortcomings, the incident could spark a wider and potentially disastrous conflict. Vigilance, rather than vengeance, is the cost of safety, and India has consistently neglected to fulfill this obligation to its people. That should change before India’s security lapses give rise to a regional security crisis.",

      • "content": "The UN warns Afghanistan faces a worsening drought crisis, urging urgent aid as millions struggle with food, water, and livelihood shortages.Tom Fletcher, Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and head of OCHA (UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs), has issued a grave warning about the intensifying drought crisis in Afghanistan. In a video message released on Thursday, May 1, Fletcher shared details of his visit to Spin Boldak district in Kandahar, where communities are struggling with severe water shortages and failed crops.Fletcher announced that the United Nations has allocated $17 million to provide emergency food, clean water, and livelihood support for affected populations. He stressed that this funding is only a fraction of what is required to address the needs of millions who face hunger and displacement due to ongoing climate-induced disasters and economic collapse.According to Fletcher, climate change is having an increasingly devastating impact on Afghanistan’s rural population. Farmers are no longer able to grow staple crops like wheat, leaving entire families without food security. He emphasized that humanitarian action must be paired with long-term climate adaptation and resilience-building strategies.This warning comes amid additional concerns over the mass return of Afghan refugees from neighboring countries, particularly Pakistan and Iran. The forced deportation of tens of thousands of Afghans adds further pressure on already strained local resources and humanitarian services, intensifying the ongoing crisis. OCHA and other UN agencies have raised alarm over the potential for widespread displacement, food insecurity, and disease outbreaks.Fletcher has previously warned that the reduction in international aid to Afghanistan could result in the death of millions. With humanitarian funding in sharp decline since the Taliban’s return to power in 2021, many NGOs and UN agencies have faced operational constraints, despite the urgent and growing needs across the country.In response, agencies such as the World Food Programme (WFP) and UNICEF have echoed OCHA’s concerns, urging the international community not to abandon Afghanistan during a time of worsening climate shocks and displacement. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has also confirmed that prolonged drought conditions now threaten over 25 out of 34 Afghan provinces.To prevent further deterioration, humanitarian leaders have called for renewed international cooperation, flexible funding, and unhindered access for aid workers. Without sustained investment in both emergency relief and long-term resilience, Afghanistan may face one of the worst climate-driven humanitarian crises in the region.The post UN warns of worsening drought as humanitarian needs soar in Afghanistan appeared first on Khaama Press.",

می‌کند. هدف این توافق، فراهم‌کردن یک محیط مناسب برای رشد اقتصادی هر دو کشور است. یولیا سویریدینکو، معاون اول صدراعظم اوکراین، در صفحه ایکس (توییتر سابق) نوشته است: «ما با همکاری ایالات متحده صندوقی ایجاد می‌کنیم که سرمایه‌گذاری بین‌المللی را به کشورمان جذب کند.» روز چهارشنبه ۹۵۵خانواده از عبورگاه های مختلف به کشور عودت کرده اند. گزارش خبرگزاری دولتی باختر زیرکنترول طالبان می افزاید که از جمله ۲۷۰ خانواده از طریق تورخم ننگرهار، ۳۰۰ خانواده از طریق سپین بولدک کندهار، ۱۴۲ خانواده از طریق پل ابریشم نیمروز ، ۶ خانواده از طریق بهرامچه هلمند و ۲۳۷ خانواده از طریق اسلام قلعه هرات به کشور عودت کرده

ملل متحد درخبرنامه امروز خود در شبکه اجتماعی اکس گفت داشتن سرپناه امن برای هزاران نفر افغان های عودت کننده به کشور گام اولی برای یک زندگی باعزت است. کمیشنری عالی سازمان ملل در امور پناهندگان (UNHCR) اعلام کرده که در ماه اپریل امسال، بیش از ۲۵۰ هزار افغان از ایران و پاکستان به کشورشان بازگشته‌اند که بیشتر آن‌ها به‌دلایل فشار و اجبار برگردانده شده‌اند؛ موضوعی که بحران بشری افغانستان را وخیم‌تر کرده است. پولیس سویدن یک نفر را در ارتباط با تیراندازی روز سه‌شنبه در شهر اوپسالا بازداشت کرده است. به گزارش رسانه‌ها، یک جوان در مرکز شهر، در یک سلمانی به سوی مردم تیراندازی کرده و سپس با استفاده از یک اسکوتر از محل فرار کرده، اما پلیس او را تعقیب و بازداشت کرده است. پولیس روز چهارشنبه تأیید کرد که فرد بازداشت‌شده کمتر از ۱۸ سال سن دارد. در یک نشست خبری، پولیس سویدن اعلام کرد که هر سه قربانی این حمله بین ۱۵ تا ۲۰ سال سن داشته‌اند، هرچند رئیس پولیس منطقه، اریک اکرلوند، گفت که هویت آن‌ها هنوز به‌طور رسمی تأیید نشده است. به گزارش رسانه‌های سویدنی، پولیس این احتمال را نیز بررسی می‌کند که این رویداد ممکن است با فعالیت‌های باندهای جنایی مرتبط باشد. اداره استخباراتی کوریایی جنوبی اعلام کرده است که حدود ۶۰۰ سرباز کوریای شمالی که در جنگ روسیه و اوکراین شرکت داشته‌اند، کشته شده‌اند. به گفته این نهاد، تاکنون در مجموع حدود ۴۷۰۰ سرباز کوریای شمالی در این جنگ دچار تلفات شده‌اند. براساس گزارش ارائه‌شده به پارلمان کوریای جنوبی، از جنوری تا مارچ، حدود ۲۰۰۰ سرباز کوریای شمالی از طریق طیاره و قطار به کشورشان بازگردانده شده‌اند. اجساد کشته‌شدگان نیز پیش از انتقال، در روسیه سوزانده شده و خاکستر آن‌ها به کوریای شمالی فرستاده شده است. این گزارش پس از آن منتشر شده که دو روز پیش، کوریای شمالی برای نخستین بار تأیید کرد نیروهایی را برای حمایت از روسیه و بازپس‌گیری مناطقی در ولایت کورسک از اوکراینی‌ها، به روسیه اعزام کرده است. ازبکستان اعلام کرده است که به‌زودی با افغانستان یک مرکز تجاری مشترک ایجاد می‌کند و در ماه جاری میلادی هیأتی عالی‌رتبه برای گفت‌وگو درباره گسترش روابط تجاری به افغانستان خواهد فرستاد. این موضوع را معاون وزیر صنعت، سرمایه‌گذاری و تجارت ازبکستان روز چهارشنبه در تاشکند، در دیدار با هیأت طالبان مطرح کرده است. براساس اعلامیه وزارت صنعت و تجارت طالبان، احمدالله زاهد وزیر این وزارت، به‌منظور گفت‌وگو درباره مشکلات تاجران افغان در ازبکستان به تاشکند رفته است. وزیر تجارت و صنعت ازبکستان وعده داده که مشکلات تاجران افغان را حل خواهد کرد و برای بررسی راه‌های گسترش روابط تجاری، هیأتی را به کابل اعزام خواهد کرد. کمیشنری عالی سازمان ملل در امور پناهندگان (UNHCR) اعلام کرده که در ماه اپریل امسال، بیش از ۲۵۰ هزار افغان از ایران و پاکستان به کشورشان بازگشته‌اند که بیشتر آن‌ها به‌دلایل فشار و اجبار برگردانده شده‌اند؛ موضوعی که بحران بشری افغانستان را وخیم‌تر کرده است. بر اساس آمار این اداره ملل متحد، حدود ۹۶ هزار تن از این افراد به اجبار اخراج شده‌اند، در حالی‌که نزدیک به ۱۵۴ هزار نفر دیگر به‌طور داوطلبانه بازگشته‌اند. یوان اچ سی آر هشدار داده که بازگشت گسترده افغان‌ها فشار مضاعفی بر منابع محدود کمک‌های بشردوستانه وارد کرده و شرایط میلیون‌ها انسان نیازمند به کمک را وخیم‌تر کرده است. تعدادی از افسران بازنشسته اردوی امریکا از دونالد ترمپ، رئیس‌جمهور امریکا خواسته‌اند که برنامه اسکان مجدد متحدان افغان را ادامه دهد. آن‌ها هشدار داده‌اند که رها کردن این برنامه می‌تواند به اعتماد متحدان جهانی ایالات متحده آسیب بزند. این درخواست در حالی مطرح شده که برخی از فرمان‌های اجرایی ترمپ که موقتاً پذیرش پناهندگان را متوقف کرده بودند، رو به پایان هستند. این فرمان‌ها موجب تعلیق برنامه‌هایی شده‌اند که برای اسکان افغان‌هایی در نظر گرفته شده بود که با نیروهای امریکایی همکاری کرده بودند. تا کنون دولت ترمپ مشخص نکرده که آیا این برنامه‌ها از سر گرفته خواهد شد یا به‌طور کامل متوقف می‌شود. بر اساس گزارش فاکس نیوز، در ۱۰ اپریل، دفتر مدیریت و بودجه قصر سفید پیشنهادهایی به وزارت خارجه ارایه کرده که شامل توقف حمایت مالی از نهاد هماهنگ‌کننده انتقال افغان‌ها (CARE) می‌شود. طبق این پیشنهاد، حدود ۶۰۰ میلیون دالر بودجه باقی‌مانده برای پایان تدریجی این برنامه تا پایان سال مالی ۲۰۲۵ اختصاص خواهد یافت. امروز، اول می، روز جهانی کارگر است. سازمان بین‌الملی کار در وبسایت خود به مناسبت این روز نوشته که هوش مصنوعی رو به رشد است و بسیاری از افراد کارشان را از دست دادند. شعار امسال «صحت و مصونیت در کار» شعاری که بر اهمیت سلامت و ایمنی در محیط‌های کاری تأکید دارد. این در حالی‌ست که در افغانستان هزاران کارگر در شرایط دشوار، بدون بیمه صحی، تجهیزات ایمنی و حمایت قانونی کار می‌کنند. پیش ازین بسیاری کارگران در معدن ذغال سنگ و کارهای ساختمانی براثر بد بودن شرایط کاری جان باختند. مرکز خبرنگاران افغانستان اعلام کرده است که حکومت طالبان نشر تصاویر موجودات زنده از طریق رسانه‌های محلی در ولایت‌های فاریاب و دایکندی را نیز ممنوع کرده است. این مرکز روز چهارشنبه (دهم ثور) در خبرنامه‌ای گفت که با این اعلام، شمار ولایت‌هایی که در آن‌ها نشر تصاویر زنده جان ممنوع شده‌، به ۱۷ ولایت رسیده است. وزارت امر به معروف و نهی از منکر حکومت طالبان پیش‌تر گفته است که این ممنوعیت را به‌صورت تدریجی در سراسر افغانستان تطبیق می‌کند. ممنوعیت پخش تصاویر موجودات زنده بخشی از قانونی است که این وزارت در ماه اسد سال گذشته اعلام و در جریده رسمی منتشر کرد. نهادهای مختلف بشمول دفتر هیئت معاونت سازمان ملل متحد در افغانستان، یوناما از ایجاد این قانون انتقاد کرده و از طالبان خواسته‌اند آن را لغو کنند.",

      • "content": "البته او تنها بازیگر مفسدی نیست که با خیال راحت در حوزه اقتصاد فعالیت می‌کند. در مقابل، افرادی بوده‌اند که با اتهاماتی مانند اخلال در نظام ارزی و مالی کشور، به سرعت محاکمه و اعدام شدند. می‌توان گفت پرونده بابک زنجانی یکی از بزرگ‌ترین و پرابهام‌ترین پرونده‌های فساد اقتصادی تاریخ جمهوری اسلامی است که در دادگاه نیز بررسی شد. او به دلیل فروش نفت در دوران تحریم و عدم بازگرداندن پول آن به وزارت نفت، به اختلاس بیش از دو میلیارد یورو متهم و در سال ۱۳۹۵ حکم اعدامش صادر شد. او یکی از بازیگرانی بود که در دوره ریاست جمهوری احمدی‌نژاد، مسوول دور زدن تحریم‌ها بود و در کشورهای مختلف شرکت‌های صوری یا واقعی داشت. البته حکم اعدام او شروطی داشت، از جمله آن که در صورت بازگشت بدهی‌ها، امکان تعلیق یا لغو مجازات وجود دارد. همین شرط بحث‌های زیادی را ایجاد کرد. اما توجیه آن بود که اعدام یا بازگشت اموال به بیت‌المال؟ قوه قضاییه، راه دوم را انتخاب کرده بود. قوه قضائیه در گزارشی اعلام کرد که در صورت استرداد اموال و جبران خسارات وارده، محکوم‌علیه استحقاق برخورداری از مقررات ذیل ماده ۱۱۴ قانون مجازات اسلامی را خواهد داشت». بهمن ماه ۱۴۰۲ اعلام شد که با تعامل دستگاه قضائی و سازمان اطلاعات سپاه، اموال بابک زنجانی با همکاری خودش در خارج از ایران شناسایی شده و محموله‌ای معادل بدهی‌های ارزی او در چند مرحله وارد کشور شده و در اختیار بانک مرکزی قرار گرفته که ارزش آن با احتساب اموال مصادره شده قبلی، بیش از بدهی‌های اوست. اردیبهشت ۱۴۰۳ با موافقت رهبر ایران، حکم اعدام او به ۲۰ سال زندان تغییر کرد که به گفته وکیلش به دلیل آن که او ۱۰ سال از حکمش را گذرانده، دوران تحمل زندان او به پایان رسیده است. او بعد از آزادی به سرعت به حوزه اقتصاد بازگشت. از بازگشت از چوبه دار تا امضای قرارداد سال گذشته بابک زنجانی عکس‌هایی در حساب توئیتری‌اش منتشر کرد و مدعی شد می‌خواهد در حوزه حمل و نقل ریلی انقلابی ایجاد کند. همان‌زمان فعالان رسانه‌ای نسبت به حضور آزادانه او در بخش اقتصادی کشور معترض شدند، اما نتیجه‌ای نداشت. او از فعالیت هلدینگی حرف می‌زد که قرار بود بخش حمل و نقل را متحول کند. ۲۵ شرکت زیر مجموعه این هلدینگ قرار دارند. تصاویری که هفته گذشته از بابک زنجانی منتشر شد، نشان داد که او نه تنها از چوبه اعدام رسته و حکم زندانش به آزادی تبدیل شده و نه تنها فعالیت اقتصادی‌اش را از سر گرفته که با بخش دولتی وارد مذاکره و عقد قرارداد شده است. انتشار تصاویر بابک زنجانی در کنار وزیر راه، واکنش برانگیز شد. خبرها نشان می‌دهد عکس‌ها مربوط به امضای تفاهم‌نامه میان شرکت منتسب به هلدینگ بابک زنجانی و شرکت راه‌آهن به ارزش ۶۱ هزار میلیارد تومان بوده است. براساس قرارداد، شرکت «آوان ریل» باید برای خرید و تولید ٣٠٠ دستگاه مسافری خودکششی دیزلی، ۵٠ لکوموتیو باری و ۶٠٠ دستگاه واگن باری مخزن‌دار اقدام کند. کاربران شبکه‌های اجتماعی، با اشاره به پیشینه و سابقه فساد او، عقد قرارداد و همکاری بخش دولتی با او را ابهام‌آمیز ‌دانستند و آن را «بازگشت رانت‌خواران به اقتصاد» توصیف کردند. یکی از کاربران نوشت:‌ «سرمایه‌بردار دیروز، سرمایه‌گذار امروز». بسیاری به دو جوانی اشاره کرده‌اند که به دلیل زورگیری ۷۰ هزار تومان اعدام شدند و قوه‌قضاییه دلیل آن را بازگشت آرامش به جامعه اعلام کرده بود. برخورد دوگانه قوه قضاییه با سلاطین فساد ظرف سال‌های گذشته افرادی با اتهامات «ایجاد فساد» یا «رانت‌خواری» بازداشت و محاکمه شده‌اند. شهرام جزایری اوایل دهه ۸۰ در دادگاه بزرگ محاکمه شد. اتهام او استفاده از رانت و ایجاد اختلال و فساد در نظام اقتصادی دولت بود، او سال‌ها در زندان بود و پس از آزادی، فعالیت‌های اقتصادی‌اش را شروع کرد. کاری که بابک زنجانی نیز انجام داد. البته عاقبت همه، مانند این دو خوش نبوده و برخی در دوره‌های بحرانی و برای آرام شدن فضای اقتصادی بازداشت و حتی اعدام شده‌اند. در دوره‌ای که وضعیت اقتصاد ایران از کنترل خارج شد و قیمت همه اقلام در بازار جهش نجومی پیدا کرد، سلاطین فساد به صورت سلسله‌وار معروف شدند. وحید مظلومین، هم‌زمان با شروع نوسانات طلا و ارز در ایران دستگیر شد و لقب «سلطان سکه»، گرفت. اتهام او اخلال در بازار سکه بود. ادعا شده که او معادل دو تن سکه را از طریق دلال‌های زیرمجموعه‌اش از سطح بازار خریداری و جمع‌آوری کرده تا با کاهش عرضه، به افزایش قیمت سکه دامن بزند. اعدام سلطان، حتی برای یک هفته نیز نتوانست سیر پرشتاب و صعودی قیمت سکه را متوقف کند. حمیدرضا باقری درمنی از دیگر سلاطین اعدامی است که در دوره بحران اقتصادی و کمبودهای داخلی، به سلطان قیر مشهور شد. او دی ماه ۹۷ به اتهام «کلاهبرداری» و «افساد فی‌الارض» به اعدام و مصادره اموال محکوم شد. در ایران حتی مواردی بوده که افراد به دلیل دزدی و یا کیف قاپی به قطع انگشتان و یا اعدام شده‌اند. برخورد دوگانه با متهمان در سطوح مختلفی در ایران قابل شناسایی است. هر چند این وضعیت تنها خاص ایران نیست و در سطح بین‌المللی نیز می‌توان معادل‌های آن را شناسایی کرد. مقابله با فساد مالی در دیگر کشورها چگونه است؟ نجیب رزاق، نخست‌وزیر سابق مالزی، به دلیل نقش مستقیم در اختلاس چند میلیارد دلاری از صندوق سرمایه‌گذاری دولتی، پس از سال‌ها پیگرد قضایی، در نهایت به ۱۲ سال زندان محکوم شد. این پرونده نه تنها در داخل مالزی بلکه در سطح بین‌المللی پیگیری و رسانه‌ای شد. پارک گئون‌هه، رئیس‌جمهور پیشین کره جنوبی، به دلیل فساد مالی و سوءاستفاده از قدرت، به بیش از ۲۰ سال زندان محکوم شد. اگر بخواهیم از نمونه‌های اروپایی برخود دوگانه با فساد نام ببریم، شاید سیلویو برلوسکونی، نخست‌وزیر پیشین ایتالیا، نمونه مناسبی باشد. او سال ۲۰۱۳ به اتهام فرار مالیاتی در پرونده موسوم به «Mediaset» به ۴ سال زندان محکوم شد که ۳ سال از آن به‌دلیل قوانین عفو عمومی بخشیده شد. این یک‌سال را او به‌صورت خدمات عمومی گذراند، آن هم نه در زندان. البته تنها عناوین اتهامی او، فساد مالی نبود، بلکه اتهام رابطه با دختران زیر سن قانونی نیز در پرونده‌اش وجود داشت. سیلویو برلوسکونی، پس از محکومیتش، دوباره وارد سیاست شد، حزبش را حفظ کرد و در سال ۲۰۱۹ به پارلمان اروپا راه پیدا کرد. او تا زمان مرگش در سال ۲۰۲۳ همچنان در راس قدرت اقتصادی و رسانه‌ای ایتالیا باقی ماند. لیست افراد فاسد و بازگشت دوباره آنها به قدرت سیاسی و یا اقتصادی، بسیار بلند بالا است. اما بررسی‌ها نشان می‌دهد به میزانی که فرد به منابع قدرت نزدیک باشد، می‌تواند از معافیت‌ها و امتیازات ویژه نیز استفاده کند. البته محدودیت رسانه‌ها در افشا و یا بررسی پرونده فساد را نیز باید در نظر گرفت. به عنوان مثال در اختلاس ۳ هزار میلیارد تومانی محمودرضا خاوری، مدیرعامل پیشین بانک ملی در دهه ۸۰، که بسیار جنجالی شد، آیت‌الله خامنه‌ای با به کار بردن اصطلاح «کش ندهید»، سدی مقابل مطبوعات برای بررسی ابعاد این پرونده کشید و تحقیق و بررسی توسط مطبوعات به گونه‌ای محدود و یا ممنوع شد. در چنین شرایطی دور از انتظار نیست که بابک زنجانی که نزدیک به یک دهه قبل به عنوان یک مفسد، محاکمه شده و به اعدام محکوم شده بود، حالا به عنوان همکار و شریک دولت فعالیت کند. فردی که پیش‌تر به دولت بدهکار بود و به دلیل عدم بازپرداخت پول وزارت نفت، بازداشت و محاکمه شد. هر چند برخی تحلیل‌ها پیش‌بینی می‌کنند که قرارداد اخیر دولت با بابک زنجانی، ممکن است بخشی از استراتژی دولت برای بهره‌گیری از ظرفیت‌های اقتصادی افراد یا شرکت‌های خاص به‌ منظور پیشبرد پروژه‌های کلان در شرایط تحریم باشد. این همکاری نشان‌دهنده موضع دوگانه قوه قضاییه با متهمان و تاکیدی بر تفاوت میان متهمان در مقابل قانون است که عواقب اجتماعی سنگینی می‌تواند به همراه داشته باشد. این که چرا ساختار رسمی همچنان با چهره‌های متهم به فساد در تعامل است، پرسشی است که نمی‌توان آن را «کش نداد».",

      • "content": "The number of Afghan refugees returning from Iran has doubled in recent weeks, with as many as 4,000 people crossing back into Afghanistan daily through the Islam Qala border in Herat province, officials report.Many returnees say the situation for Afghan migrants inside Iran has deteriorated significantly over the past month. According to their accounts, hundreds are being detained and deported every day.The Iranian government has announced that all undocumented migrants must leave the country. As a result, families like that of Mohammad Naeem, a 41-year-old who returned to Afghanistan after four years in Iran, are making their way back. He returned with ten family members, including his elderly parents.Mohammad Naeem said living conditions in Iran for Afghan migrants have become increasingly difficult. “The living space for Afghans is shrinking. Many families are trying to leave,” he explained. “I was a carpenter, but I was still treated with disrespect. Even at the bakery where we bought bread, they sold it for 2,000 tomans to Iranians, but charged us 10,000 tomans for the same bread.”Local officials at the Islam Qala border confirm the surge in returnees. Abdullah Qayoumi, head of the Refugees Affairs Office at the border, said up to 300 families are returning through Islam Qala each day. He stressed that various sanctions and restrictions imposed by Iran on Afghan migrants have led to a sharp increase in deportations and voluntary returns.“In recent weeks, the return of Afghan migrants from Iran has accelerated due to mounting pressures,” said Qayoumi. “Iran has imposed a series of restrictions on Afghan migrants, forcing many to come back to their homeland.”Some returnees have reported mistreatment by Iranian security forces. Saman Jamshidi, a deported migrant, shared: “Life in Tehran was very difficult, especially for families. In the camps where we were held, there were facilities, but they were not suitable for families.”Alireza, a deported immigrant from Iran, says: “Those who have a passport or have documents are arrested, and those who have gone illegally are also arrested and sent back to the country.”Aimal, a deported immigrant from Iran, says: “The Iranian police treat us very badly and they took money from us in more than a dozen places on the way home, and our demand from the Islamic Emirate is to question them.”The emergency deportation policy recently implemented by Iran has intensified the wave of return refugees.Local authorities at the Islam Qala crossing say that current support from international organizations and the government is not enough in terms of addressing the needs of the growing number of returnees from Iran.The post Thousands of refugees crossing into Afghanistan from Iran daily first appeared on Ariana News.",

In separate phone calls with the leaders of both nations, the U.S. emphasized dialogue and cooperation over confrontation.According to U.S. State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce, Rubio spoke with Pakistani Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif, stressing the importance of accountability in response to violent actions. He also urged Islamabad to support a transparent investigation into the April 22 attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir.Rubio also held a separate call with Indian External Affairs Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, during which he expressed condolences to the victims’ families and reiterated Washington’s commitment to work with New Delhi in combating terrorism in the region.The statement noted that Rubio encouraged India to engage constructively with Pakistan to de-escalate hostilities and uphold peace and security in South Asia. The United States emphasized the role of diplomacy in preventing further conflict between the two nuclear-armed neighbors.The terrorist attack in Pahalgam, which killed 26 people and injured 17, has sharply escalated tensions. India accused Pakistan of backing the militant group “The Resistance Front,” linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, a charge Islamabad denied, calling instead for an impartial probe.Following the incident, India suspended visas for Pakistani nationals, closed border crossings, and threatened to cut water flow from the Indus River. In retaliation, Pakistan shut its airspace to Indian flights, severed trade ties, and labeled India’s water move a “war act.”As border skirmishes broke out on April 25 and anti-India protests erupted in Islamabad, international observers, including the United Nations, voiced alarm over the rising risk of military conflict. Both nations possess nuclear capabilities, heightening global concerns.The United States has reiterated its call for calm and diplomatic engagement, warning that further escalation would jeopardize regional and international peace. Analysts stress that both India and Pakistan must resist provocation and return to bilateral dialogue to resolve outstanding disputes.The post US calls on India and Pakistan to de-escalate tensions appeared first on Khaama Press.",

      • "description": "GUIYANG, China, May 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- According to Communist Party of China Guizhou Gui'an New Area, Guizhou province in Southwest China has emerged as a national computing network hub. There is now ample evidence to show that the \"east data, west computing\" project, which means \"computing the eastern region's data in the west\" of the country, encompasses not only technology transfer, but also the restructuring of production. Guizhou is evolving from being a follower to a leader in the field of computing, setting a new paradigm for other western provinces in China. Since being designated as a national computing power hub in May 2021, Guizhou has made giant strides in expanding its computing power. By late 2024, its gross computing power had doubled, exceeding 57 EFLOPS (57 quintillion floating-point operations per second), among which intelligent computing accounts for over 90 percent, transforming Guizhou into one of the top intelligent-computing provinces in China. With clustered intelligent computing centers, including the Huawei Ascend Computing Center, Guizhou has transformed itself from being a \"data storage warehouse\" to becoming a \"computing engine\". With a considerable number of data centers, Guizhou is poised to build an industry chain centered on computing power and data. Guizhou has issued 26 incentive policies to promote its development as a national computing hub, and expanded the scope of incentives to attract enterprises from regions such as Guangdong and Sichuan provinces and Beijing to start computing-related businesses in the province. It is planned that it will continually expand its computing capacity based on the clustered data centers in Gui'an and aggregate resources and computing power. By late 2024, Guizhou had provided 23 percent of the country's total computing power, and had completed computing transactions worth 11.35 billion yuan ($1.56 billion). It is currently developing diverse application scenarios, and actively cultivating clustered data centers, intelligent terminals and data applications — all with the aim of all three reaching a scale of 100 billion yuan respectively. Innovation has replaced resources as the province's primary driving force. Application scenarios have stimulated demand and services. In recent years, Guizhou's computing power has gained popularity among film-making teams in eastern regions. The major operator of the Gui'an Supercomputing Center has helped render more than 50 films including The Wandering Earth, Deep Sea and The Three-Body Problem. Notably, over 40 percent of the special effects shots in the popular animated film Ne Zha 2 were rendered using computing power generated in Guizhou. Nevertheless, Guizhou still faces challenges, namely, insufficient endogenous technological advancement, shortage of high-end talents and poor regional coordination. For this reason, Guizhou is sparing no effort to cultivate local innovative teams through projects such as \"scientist workstations\" and \"university-enterprise joint laboratories\". The Gui'an Supercomputing Center, for example, has supported research computing for universities and research institutes in Guizhou in fields such as biomedicine, artificial intelligence and industrial simulation. The province's financial authorities guide financial institutions to enhance coordination between the government, finance, and enterprises, thereby assisting sci-tech businesses to secure finance and foster innovation. By last September, the province had 11 bank branches specializing in sci-tech financing, with outstanding loans to technology-based enterprises totaling 99.84 billion yuan, an increase of 2.32 billion yuan compared to early 2024. Notably, loans to high-tech enterprises amounted to 83.38 billion yuan, up 29.82 percent from the start of 2024. If Guizhou achieves its goal of building China's largest computing clusters by the end of 2025 as planned, it is poised to become a prominent player in the global digital economy, and better support the country's modernization.",

      • "content": "The first season of ' Kian's Bizarre B&B ' was a success. The popular webtoon artist Kian84 managed an unconventional bed and breakfast guesthouse along with BTS' Jin and Ji Ye-eun. Was it fun? Yes! But, we have to say, it was equally chaotic and heartwarming. Will there be a second season? On April 30, Kian84 hinted at season two. The webtoon artist revealed that he has been in talks with Netflix's production team for a season renewal, leaving Jin surprised. The BTS member asked for dates as he would be busy with his solo tour starting in June 2025. In response, Kian84 joked that he would design his next guesthouse in a city where Jin would perform. \"I'll set the schedule solely to fit yours, so no need to worry. We'll build Kian's B&B right next to your tour concert hotel. Our B&B is a movable guesthouse. There will be a discussion, so no worries,\" said Kian84.

On the other hand, he is set to release his second solo album, ' Echo ', on May 16, 2025. What is the album about? According to the statement released by his agency, \"Echo conveys universal life experiences and emotions through Jin's unique and charming perspective.

The release coincided with Eid al-Fitr and followed a special decree by Sultan Haitham bin Tariq Al Said.According to the statement posted on X, six of the released individuals have already returned to Afghanistan, while the remaining three are expected to arrive shortly after final logistical arrangements.The ministry provided the names of the freed prisoners but did not disclose the nature of their charges or reasons for their detention in Oman. The group refrained from elaborating on any legal processes or diplomatic efforts that may have contributed to their release.So far, Oman’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not publicly commented on the release or provided details regarding the cases of the detainees. This development follows a recent official visit by Amir Khan Muttaqi, the Taliban’s acting foreign minister, to Oman. Though details of his meetings were not fully disclosed, diplomatic sources suggest the issue of Afghan nationals in Omani prisons may have been on the agenda.The release is being viewed as a gesture of goodwill by Oman during the Eid holiday, a time traditionally associated with acts of clemency and reconciliation in the Muslim world. Similar royal pardons are often issued across the region during religious holidays.The post Nine Afghan nationals freed from Omani prisons appeared first on Khaama Press.",

      • "content": "MELBOURNE :Australian motor sport endured tough years through the depths of COVID-19 but is now positioning for growth as it catches the tailwind of Oscar Piastri's success in Formula One. Melbourne native Piastri helped McLaren win last year's constructors' championship with teammate Lando Norris and is now favourite to win a maiden drivers' title after back-to-back wins in the Middle East. Piastri's blistering start has thrilled his home nation but some of the biggest cheers may be heard at the offices of governing body Motorsport Australia (MA). \"It's transformational. If Oscar, through his work and capability and talent, wins the Formula One world championship this year, it will be hugely significant for motor sport in Australia,\" MA CEO Sunil Vohra told Reuters on Thursday. \"Because the kids are interested in motor sport, because they know about it, they see what Oscar is doing, they read the headlines ... having Oscar on the grid in Formula One is enormously beneficial to that.\" MA, which runs events and develops driver pathways from grassroots to elite levels, recorded a slender surplus of A$16,712 ($10,727) for the 2024 calendar year in its financial report released on Thursday, a big turnaround from the previous year's net deficit of A$1,060,928. While the improved result is less about Piastri and more about a mix of cost-cutting and better financial management, Vohra says MA is positioned for growth as the 24-year-old's rising profile drives engagement and participation rates. \"There is a direct correlation to the success of Australians on the international stage with awareness and interest uplift in the broader motor sport community,\" Vohra said. \"We see it play out through our development programmes like our 'Come and Try' programmes which are often oversubscribed through our clubs, and that's across all disciplines. \"(Oscar) is a product of motor sport in Australia, and he shows what is possible from the Australian system, from karting to four-wheel, all the way through to the global stage. \"He's an extraordinary asset in that regard. And yes, we are already priming ourselves for how we can help that increased interest be translated into engaging and participating.\" Motor sports at various levels enjoy healthy fan-bases in Australia but running them is costly and vulnerable to economic shocks. Insurance costs have soared in recent years while inflation has made it harder for enthusiasts to afford the fees for club memberships and competition licences. U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs agenda has stoked fears inflation could ramp up again in Australia after retreating to within target range in recent months. As much of MA's business is powered by amateur drivers who go out and race every weekend, the non-profit organisation's remit is to keep things as affordable and inclusive as possible. \"That environment is certainly influenced and impacted by the inflationary environment and confidence environment in Australia, in terms of the economic conditions,\" Vohra said. \"Hopefully we can still protect and insulate (participants) to some extent, regardless of some of those external, international factors that we're seeing play out.\" Bringing more women into motor sport, a domain traditionally dominated by male participants and fans, may be part of the answer. It's a big focus for MA, an enthusiastic backer of Susie Wolff's FIA \"Girls on Track\" initiative. Vohra says more than 3,500 girls in Australia have gone through the programme, which offers workshops and activities to encourage girls to consider STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) subjects and pathways into motor sport careers. The programmes are often over-subscribed and interest has been boosted by two Australian drivers - Aiva Anagnostiadis and Joanne Ciconte - competing in the all-female F1 Academy series led by Wolff. \"It just shows the pathways that are possible, even to the elite level for girls who want to drive, as well as girls who want to get involved in sport,\" Vohra said. ($1 = 1.5579 Australian dollars)",

      • "content": "KABUL (Pajhwok): Muska Hotak, an 18-year-old girl from Kabul, has turned to religious studies, English and computer training after the interim government suspended education for females beyond the sixth grade. Despite the setback, she remains hopeful that schools will one day reopen for girls across Afghanistan. A resident of the Sarak-i-Naw area in Kabul’s 9th municipal district, Muska completed her primary and middle school education at Nazo Ana High School in Jalalabad. She studied up to the 11th grade at Shahrak Erfan High School before her formal education was interrupted. Muska is among thousands of Afghan girls waiting for schools to reopen, holding onto dreams of becoming educated, empowered, and valuable members of families and society –equipped with both modern and religious knowledge. Throughout her schooling, from first through eleventh grade, Muska consistently ranked among top students. Her ambition was to enter Kabul Medical University through the entrance exam. However, after the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) suspended girls’ education beyond grade six in 2021, she was forced to stay at home. “It’s very difficult,” she commented, “when someone works so hard for years only to end up at home with an uncertain future. I struggled a lot to reach grade 11 and this is how it turned out. For the first two years, I was lost and didn’t know what to do.” Reflecting on more than three and a half years of school closures for girls, she said, “In the beginning, I was not in a good mental state. It felt like everything had collapsed and time had stopped for us. But two years later, I realised that sitting at home wouldn’t change anything. With my father’s support, I decided to take action.” Like many other girls deprived of formal education, Muska turned to religious and informal learning. Determined not to let time slip by, she made a conscious effort to pursue knowledge in any way she could. “For two years, I stayed home, hoping schools would reopen — but nothing changed. I’ve never lost hope. I rely on God’s mercy. Now I’ve switched to religious studies, having completed Nazira (Qur’an recitation) and am am currently studying translation and interpretation.” Muska, along with four sisters who were also denied formal education, now attends a madrasa in the Arzan Qimat area of Kabul, far from their home. She also takes courses in English and computer skills at a local institute. She takes pride in her progress and remains optimistic that modern education will once again become accessible to Afghan girls. Muska sets down her achievements to her father’s unwavering support: “My father is a strong pillar for us. He’s supported us in all situations. He has deep respect for education. Despite our financial difficulties, he takes us to our courses and madrasa every day and brings us back.” Her father, Abdul Hakim Hotak, hoped for his daughters’ future: “My daughters had studied as much as they could. Now, I take them to a madrasa in Arzan Qimat and bring them back every day. I make this effort so they can translate their dreams into a reality.” Muska’s brother, Shahidullah, also encourages his sisters to pursue an education. Like his father, he dreams of a brighter future for girls in his family. “I hope the Islamic Emirate reopens schools for girls,” he said. “Everyone has a dream. My greatest wish is that schools reopen so girls can realise their dreams.” Meanwhile, educationist Sanaullah Salehi commended the resilience of Afghan girls, who have turned to alternative forms of learning. “Madaris at least provide a platform for continued education and development,” he said. “They keep girls engaged in pursuing knowledge and intellectual growth. Religious education strengthens moral, spiritual and social values, and can help protect girls from isolation.” However, he emphasised that modern education was equally essential: “Without it, girls’ economic, technical and social skills will not develop — and that will ultimately hinder the progress of society.” Salehi recommended that seminaries incorporate modern subjects alongside religious ones in their courses, saying such an approach would be both practical and effective. sa/mud",
