After the ten-hour battle that took place on the fifth of this month, in which missiles were launched from various directions, from southern Lebanon, Syria and the Gaza Strip, which came within the framework and context of the response by the Jerusalem axis to what the entity state had done in terms of targeting Al-Aqsa Mosque, whether by suppression. The brutality of the stationed and those who are in seclusion in the mosque or the insistence on continuing the incursions into it in the last ten days of the blessed month of Ramadan by extremist groups, and the efforts of those groups from what is known as the trustees of the temple and to return to the temple and all the groups branching from it, women for the sake of the temple and students for the sake of the temple, to introduce what It is known about the animal offerings of Easter to the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque and their slaughter therein, and their blood is scattered on the Dome of the Rock Mosque, the place where the so-called Third Temple will be built in its place. Known to revive the moral structure.

The response from the Jerusalem axis is with "unity of fire" and activating the fields of the axis arenas, and improving the paths of coordination between them to reach the equation "Tampering with Al-Aqsa is equivalent to a regional war", she said clearly by breaking the prestige of the entity state, which was broken more than once, and that battle proved that the prime minister of The Netanyahu entity, whose deep predicament is part of the entity's state crisis, was bridled and deterred, regardless of the factors and reasons for restraint and deterrence, whether internal political crisis, external pressures, or military security linked to the entity's security services.

Netanyahu, who has always bragged about the power of deterring the entity, and the harsh response to any act of resistance, we found that he tried to escape and avoid a response that would open the gates of hell for him and implicate him in a war on several fronts, and therefore the response was lackluster and limited, whether to the missiles launched from Lebanon or Syria Or the Gaza Strip, and it was a restricted and framed response, and instead of a response in which Netanyahu would restore deterrence, and prevent his options and responses from being restricted in the future, we found that the entity's deterrence was further eroded.

The state of the entity, due to the steadfastness of the stationed and those in retreat in Al-Aqsa, and the intervention by the Jerusalem axis through messages of fire and the unity of response, found itself compelled to take a decision for the first time, not through the prime minister of the entity and his police minister, but rather this decision needed the approval of the security and military institutions, to prevent groups Extremists prevented their incursions into Al-Aqsa during the last ten days of Ramadan, which angered Al-Fashi bin Ghafir, who rejected this decision, saying that it would increase escalation and weaken the entity’s police control over the situation in Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Netanyahu's internal political and personal crises and the pressures exerted on him internally by the opposition and his allies of Jewish fascism and externally, those crises that were sparked by what is known as legislative and judicial amendments, through which Netanyahu wanted to fortify himself, by controlling the judicial system, and weakening what is known as the authority of the Court of Justice The Supreme Court, by liberating the Knesset and the government from judicial oversight, but the widespread societal protests led by the opposition against that policy led by Netanyahu and his Minister of Justice "Yariv Levin", and which have been going on for sixteen weeks, despite Netanyahu's freezing of the decision to amend legislation, these protests, in which hundreds of thousands of people participated The Israelis were not confined to a specific group or sector, but included political forces, labor unions, the financial and banking sectors, professional unions, and what was known as the forces of resistance to dictatorship, and to extend to the security and military institutions, and to throw protests with their shadows and repercussions on the entity’s army, its readiness and readiness, and the atrophy of economic growth and the decline of the economy. And also on the credit rating of the entity's economy, the flight of capital and investment companies, and the increase in expelling immigration from the entity's country abroad.

Netanyahu is fully aware that the crises in his entity are deeper and more comprehensive than the issue of amending judicial legislation, which may push him to take military action to get out of this impasse. Gaza is likely to be the arena for this military escalation...but this escalation and aggression against the Gaza Strip are the same. By carrying out assassinations or waging a limited war, will Netanyahu get out of his crisis and prevent other fronts from joining the confrontation, especially since the Israeli Minister of Defense, Yoav Galant, stated clearly on Thursday 4/14/2023 the "end of the era of limited confrontations", and refers to " The necessity of preparing for war in all sectors at the same time, and Galant explained, according to the Israeli media, that the occupation army must prepare for a "multiple arena war, in which a real security threat is possible in all sectors, and at the same time."

He added, "This is the end of the era of limited confrontations," saying that "work has been, for years, assuming the possibility of limited confrontations, but this phenomenon is disappearing. Today, there is a prominent phenomenon, which is the merging of arenas.

Will Netanyahu be able to restore the deterrence force and unify the internal front of the entity state behind him to escape the issue of legislative amendments...or will the entity find itself facing more erosion of the deterrence force and that Gaza swallows Netanyahu and loses his political and personal future..?? … Questions that will be answered by developments with the end of the month of Ramadan and the end of the holidays of the entity state, the Holocaust, the “independence” day, the Nakba of our people, and the memory of what is known as the “unification” of Jerusalem, the completion of the occupation of the eastern part of it.

Apple Tech has developed two Daisy robots, one in Austin, Texas and the other in Breda, the Netherlands, that can each recycle up to 200 smartphones per hour.

The robot can recover various components of its machines in order to recycle them.

It is updated regularly and is now able to recognize 23 different Apple product models.

The robot consists of articulated arms, each intended for a step in disassembling the smartphone. Everything is done on a small disassembly line inside a safe, glass-covered area, we got to see Daisy at work in Breda Holland.

Every smartphone goes through a very meticulous procedure. It starts with selecting the model (from iPhone 5 to 12), followed by detaching the screen from the rest of the components.

The device is then unlocked, and Daisy can remove its battery. This process is difficult; Because the iPhone battery is held in place by strong glue. To get rid of this, cold air must be blown over it for a few seconds.

The battery can then be restored without damage, after that, the various device screws are removed in order to separate and restore each component. These then fall onto a conveyor belt that leads to the exit, where a human operator sorts all this waste into large custom bins, and this is how every 18 seconds an entire iPhone is disassembled.

The result is a series of large boxes; Screens, batteries, front and rear cameras, connectors, etc. are collected separately.

It will then be sent to various partners around the world, in order to be recycled and put back on the market.

On Tuesday, civil trial procedures begin in the lawsuit filed by American E. Jane Carroll against former President Donald Trump, accusing him of raping her during the nineties of the last century.

On Tuesday, the jury selection process is scheduled to begin to consider the case in which the 79-year-old journalist says that the former Republican president assaulted her in a store in New York City, and defamed her when she revealed the incident years later.

Trump denies the charges against him in a case that is only one of a series of legal procedures he faces that may hinder his candidacy for the 2024 US elections and his quest for a second term in the White House, where he spent four years between 2017 and 2021.

The start of the new trial procedures comes after Trump appeared in court in early April in criminal cases related to paying money to a former porn star to buy her silence before the 2016 presidential elections, which he won at the expense of his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.

Trump became the first former or sitting US president to be charged with a criminal offense, and he also pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Carroll, a former journalist and opinion writer for Elle magazine, says that Trump raped her in the dressing room of a luxury clothing store on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan in the mid-nineties, noting that this assault occurred after the wealthy American asked for her opinion on shopping.

Carroll revealed this for the first time in excerpts from her book published by New York Magazine in 2019.

Trump responded at the time, saying that he had never met her and that she was a "total lie".

The journalist sued Trump for defamation for the first time in 2019, but was unable to include the rape charge because the statutory statute of limitations had expired.

However, a new law that became effective in New York as of November gives rape victims the right to sue even if decades have passed since they were sexually assaulted.

It gives them one year, after its issuance, to do so.

Carroll's lawyers filed a complaint accusing Trump of beating her "when he raped her and forcibly grabbed her."

The complaint also includes a charge of defamation over a post by Trump on social media platforms, in which he deemed her "insane."

The complaint sought unspecified damages for psychological harm, pain and suffering, insult to dignity, and reputational damage.

Trump is not expected to testify, as Carroll's lawyers confirmed that they do not intend to request to hear him in the trial, which is expected to extend from one to two weeks.

Among the most prominent cases haunting the forty-fifth president of the United States are the accusations leveled against him of exerting pressure on officials of the electoral process in the state of Georgia in 2020, and an investigation regarding his handling of the White House archives.

The period of anticipation ended, and US President Joe Biden announced on Tuesday his candidacy for a second term, despite the concerns that his age, eighty years, raises.

"I am running for a second term," Biden said in a video posted on Twitter.

The Republican Party quickly accused him of "detachment from reality."

For a week now, rumors have been circulating in Washington about this candidacy.

Today, Tuesday, April 25, coincides with the fourth anniversary of Democrat Joe Biden entering the previous presidential election campaign under the slogan "For the Spirit of America", at the end of which Donald Trump was denied a second term.

If opinion polls are correct, another contest between the two men is on the horizon. The announcement of the candidacy on this date bears strong symbolism.

There is no campaign-related event on Biden's agenda for the day.

The president is supposed to speak before a union to lay out his vision on what will surely be one of the main tenets of his campaign: how to bring "industrial jobs" back to the United States and "rebuild the middle class."

Since the beginning of the year, Biden has stressed his desire to restore "dignity" to the "forgotten" popular America that Donald Trump knew how to win over.

Biden believes that the statistics are on his side, as American presidents generally run and are often re-elected.
But the 80-year-old president defies historical precedent. If re-elected, he will end his second term at the age of 86.

In November 2021 and February 2023, the President underwent medical examinations which concluded that he was "in good health".

However, it is expected that the Democratic president, who is blamed for his many lapses, will be exposed to the escalation of Republican attacks on his mental ability.

However, he shows extraordinary resilience, from international crises to major reforms.

His visit to Kiev, an unprecedented initiative accompanied by tight security measures, reminded him of his role as the architect of the Western response after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Joe Biden took note, according to the polls, that the candidacy of his predecessor, Donald Trump, 76, who was indicted by a court in New York, no longer aroused enthusiasm either.

The Democrat thus considers that if he defeated his Republican predecessor, the divisive figure, once, he could do so again by emphasizing his character as a good man and his unifying platform.

Anticipating the announcement of his rival, Donald Trump Monday deplored the outcome of the current president's performance.

"You can take the five worst presidents in the history of the United States, and together they will not cause more damage than Joe Biden did to our country in just a few years," the Republican billionaire said in a statement.

And there remains a big question mark about what will be Joe Biden's chances if in November 2024 he faces a younger opponent or competition?

The name of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, the 44-year-old far-right figure, is being circulated heavily. He has not announced his candidacy yet.

This will be Biden's fourth presidential race. Before he was elected in 2020, he ran for the 1998 and 2008 elections, and each time I suffered a severe defeat. In 2015, Biden, who was vice president at the time, and was deeply affected by the death of his eldest son, declined to run to succeed Barack Obama.

The ruling canceled it on grounds of offside (63).
Al-Shahaniya's reaction raised the concerns of Al-Sadd, who regained the advantage decisively with a fourth goal through Bounedjah, taking advantage of the pass of substitute Ali Asad (89), scoring his 200th goal since joining the ranks of Al-Sadd club, before the player himself returned to score the second and fifth personal goal for his team (90 + 1).

Al-Wehda completed the match with ten players, after the referee declared the second yellow card to defender Abdullah Al-Hafiz (53).
Ronaldo hit a powerful ball from a free kick, but it just crossed the crossbar (55).

Al-Nasr missed an opportunity when Abdul Rahman Gharib hit a powerful ball next to the post (65). The crossbar denied Al-Nasr a goal when it tackled Ronaldo's ball before it made its way outside the field (83).
Al-Nassr intensified its pressure in the remaining time and was close to scoring when Brazilian Luiz Gustavo headed a ball into the goal, but the defender pushed the ball away from the goal.

Dibba Al-Fujairah did not lose in the last 6 matches (4 wins and two draws), to raise its score in the twelfth place to 18 points, which is the same as the balance of Al-Bataeh, which fell to the thirteenth by goal difference.

Al-Bataeh fell in front of its host, Al-Jazira, with three goals scored by Ali Mabkhout (38 and 76) and Iraqi Ali Hussein (85), against a goal by Hamad Muhammad (84).

In recent days, the Palestinian media, especially social networks, did not stop talking about possible Israeli assassinations against Palestinian leaders or others, after the security incidents that escalated recently, especially during the month of Ramadan, after the short round, during which dozens of rockets were fired from several fronts that surprised Israel. With the admission of its security services, which put it in a dilemma regarding responding to what happened.

A report appeared on Hebrew Channel 12 two days ago that Israel is studying the possibility of changing its policy by returning to the policy of assassinations . "Independence Day celebrations" (the Palestinian Nakba), without any security tension.

The news focused more clearly on returning to the policy of assassinations as a response to any Palestinian attack, especially during celebrations.

The news came in the Hebrew media, with the continued calls issued by the far-right ministers in the Netanyahu government, especially Itamar Ben Gvir, to return to this policy.

This news, which was translated differently in the Palestinian media, sparked a lot of controversy, especially on social media, by some media professionals, activists, and even analysts who went too far with many scenarios, until many called it mere "media glamor" and part of the war. Psychological.

There is no doubt that the Israeli occupation may resort to carrying out assassinations, and it did not stop it in the first place, especially outside the Palestinian territories, using various methods. Another was against Ali Al-Aswad, one of the leaders of the Islamic Jihad in Syria, who was found to be active in military action as a military engineer for the organization, which began in recent years to expand its activities. Outside Palestine, however, it is unlikely that he will resort to such an operation at the present time for several goals, most notably his unwillingness to launch a military escalation that would open all fronts against him.

Despite the inciting Israeli reports against Hamas Vice President Saleh Al-Arouri in particular, it is estimated that it is an attempt to shed light on his activities, especially after the rockets were fired from Lebanon and accuse the movement of standing behind them, but it does not mean that Israel, if it was able to reach him by the methods it uses as usual. In the manner of assassinating personalities outside Palestine such as Mahmoud al-Mabhouh, Ali al-Aswad or others from the list that goes on.

Mustafa Ibrahim, a specialist in Israeli affairs, told Al-Quds.com that returning to the policy of assassinations is a basic demand that far-right ministers such as Ben Gvir and Smotrich constantly demand, in light of the recent erosion of Israeli deterrence, especially last year and the beginning of this year.

And Ibrahim stated that this issue has taken on a propaganda nature more than the reality that Israel seeks to avoid by engaging in an operation that could lead to war on several fronts, pointing out at the same time that this does not mean that there are intentions on the part of the occupation or estimates that it is possible to carry out such operations as it did against Palestinians, Iranians and others outside Palestine.

He pointed out that any assassination would require a political decision, but presenting it in this media manner is merely a psychological war and media and political propaganda aimed at creating a new deterrence process.

He pointed out that the Palestinian analyzes of the issue went far beyond the occupation’s vision of this issue in light of the Israeli security establishment’s focus on unifying the squares, which appeared more evident in the last period, especially the events in the month of Ramadan, which made Israel think carefully before taking any action. An assassination step or a specific operation and fears a response from those fronts.

And he indicated that Israel usually works secretly and away from the media, cautiously and silently, and does not go out to the media when it decides to assassinate a person, and what was reported in the media may be just an attempt to please Ben Gvir and Smotrich, pointing at the same time to the importance of the resistance having a state of caution in anticipation of any Israeli treachery.

He pointed out that this media propaganda was accompanied by a lot of Palestinian analysis in various media outlets, which raised a state of fear and anxiety among the citizens. And to take a decisive decision regarding it in light of the lack of security experience of the cabinet ministers, especially Ben Gvir and Smotrich, and their leaking of everything that is going on in the cabinet sessions.

Today, Monday, the Israeli occupation forces seized a bulldozer while it was working in the reclamation of agricultural lands on the "Jayous-Nabi Elias" road, east of Qalqilya .

According to local sources, the occupation forces seized a bulldozer belonging to Abd Shaher Salim, under the pretext that it was working in an area classified as "C", where work is not permitted.

The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees announced Monday that more than 20 people are missing after two drowning accidents off the coast of Italy , as good weather contributed to new perilous crossings in the Mediterranean.

"Two boats sank again off Lampedusa with 22 people missing. Our condolences to those who lost loved ones at sea," Chiara Cardoletti, UNHCR's representative in Italy, wrote on Twitter.

"There is an urgent need to stabilize the situation in Tunisia in order to reduce the reasons for so many people risking their lives at sea," Cardoletti added.

An official from UNHCR's media office said that 36 survivors of the first sinking told the Italian coast guard that 19 people on their boat had died after it partially capsized.

The same source stated that three other people died in the second drowning accident.
The Italian Coast Guard did not give information about the two sinkings.

And the newspaper "La Repubblica" wrote that the survivors of the first drowning, including six minors, were on a seven-meter boat that sank in Italian waters and were rescued by a fishing boat.

The newspaper "La Stampa" reported that the people rescued were from Burkina Faso

Cameroon, Guinea, Ivory Coast and Sudan, and paid between 500 and 600 euros for transit.

After four days of bad weather, the number of boats trying to cross to the Italian island of Lampedusa rose again on Sunday.
Monday 1,094 people were in the reception center on the island which was built to hold fewer than 400 people.

According to the Interior Ministry, more than 36,000 people have arrived by sea in Italy this year, compared to about 9,000 during the same period last year.
The International Organization for Migration has recorded 537 deaths or disappearances in the central Mediterranean - the world's most dangerous transit corridor - since the beginning of the year.

Today, Monday, the occupation forces cut off the evening call to prayer, and prevented the muezzin from completing the call to prayer in the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque , under the pretext of settler celebrations in Al-Buraq Square .

Dozens of settlers stormed the mosque's courtyards, under the protection of the Israeli occupation police. The police also attacked the Bab al-Rahma chapel, cut off its electricity wires for the second time in a row, and prevented Al-Aqsa guards from entering it.

On Monday, Britain , the European Union and the United States tightened, in a coordinated manner, their sanctions against the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, due to human rights violations.

In response, Iran announced punitive measures against individuals and entities in the European Union and Britain, while denouncing the "imposition and tightening of brutal sanctions" on the Islamic Republic.
The list, published by the Iranian Foreign Ministry, includes 12 European individuals and entities, in addition to nine British citizens and companies, and includes financial measures and a ban on entering the country.

And included on the list were the director of the German arms company "Krauss Maffei Wegmann" Frank Haun, the two European deputies Ilana Secorel and Antonio Lopez, the French lawyer Dominique Attias, the British naval officer Admiral Ben Key, and the former Dutch foreign minister Uri Rosenthal.

For its part, London added more than 70 Iranian officials and entities to its sanctions list, who are now subject to asset freezes and entry bans, according to a statement by the British Foreign Office.

Among the most prominent of those sanctioned were four generals from the Revolutionary Guards, in addition to the inclusion of the organization "in its entirety" on the list, according to the ministry.

The step came in coordination with the United States and the European Union, and raises the number of those on the British list to 300 personalities and entities.

For its part, the European Union added to its list, which was published in the Official Gazette, eight personalities - including an officer in the Revolutionary Guards - in addition to the telephone operator Ariantel, who is accused of collaborating in the repression carried out by the authorities.

This is the seventh package of sanctions imposed by the European Union on Iran since the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini on September 16, after being stopped by the "morality police" for violating strict dress codes.

On the American side, eight police and Revolutionary Guard officials were included in the sanctions list, in addition to the secretariat of the Supreme Council for Cyberspace, which monitors and restricts access to the Internet.

Washington also banned the granting of visas to 11 Iranian government officials "suspected of being responsible or complicit in abuses, arbitrary detention, or killing of demonstrators."

"The UK and its international partners confirm today that we will not turn a blind eye to the regime's brutal repression," British Foreign Secretary James Cleverly said in a statement.

He added, "We will continue to take a full series of measures to hold the regime accountable for its actions," denouncing the "brutal repression practiced on the Iranian people," accusing Tehran of "exporting the bloodbath to all parts of the world."

The British government has continued to tighten its sanctions against the Revolutionary Guards, but so far it has avoided calls to designate it a "terrorist organization" with the potential to cut off all contacts with Tehran and thwart the revival of the 2015 agreement on Iran's nuclear programme.

Europeans are also being cautious as members of the European Parliament adopted a resolution in January calling on the European Union to include the Revolutionary Guards on the list of "terrorist organisations".

The Revolutionary Guard was established in 1979 after the revolution's victory over the Shah's regime, and it manages land, sea and air forces with an estimated number of more than 120,000 personnel.

The Revolutionary Guard supervises the "Basij" (volunteer corps), which was active in suppressing the protests that erupted following the death of Mahsa Amini.

A bomb attack Monday targeting a Pakistani anti-terrorism police station killed three people and caused the building to collapse, police said.

The local police official, Attaullah Khan, told AFP that "two bombs exploded" at the police station, "killing at least three people" in the city of Kabal , located in the Swat Valley in northwestern Pakistan.

The Global Counter-Jihadist Coalition reported Monday a decline in Islamic State attacks in Iraq and neighboring Syria during the first months of 2023, as the jihadists continue to operate despite their defeat.

After its rise in 2014 in Iraq and neighboring Syria, the Islamic State was defeated after a series of military operations against it in the two countries, with the support of an international coalition led by Washington.

Iraq declared "victory" over the jihadists in 2017, while the Islamic State lost its last stronghold in 2019 in Syria, but its elements are still active in rural and remote areas and launch sporadic attacks.

"Since the beginning of the year in Iraq, until the first week of April, we recorded a 68% decrease in the number of attacks, compared to the same period in the previous year," said General Matthew MacFarlane, commander of the international coalition.

"In Syria...we recorded a decrease of 55% during the same period," he added during an online press conference, pointing out that these attacks were "relatively limited", launched by "one or a few individuals".

"The Islamic State organization has not succeeded in organizing or coordinating anything on a broader level this year," he said.

He stated that the month of Ramadan "was one of the quietest in years," pointing to an "80 percent" drop in attacks in Iraq compared to last year, and a "37 percent" drop in Syria.

He also pointed out that the Kurdish forces that run al-Hol camp in Syria, which houses about 50,000 people from jihadist families, have deported "more than 1,300 nationals of other countries" since the beginning of 2023.

In March, an Iraqi military official said that the Islamic State had between 400 and 500 fighters active in Iraq.

According to estimates published in a report to the UN Security Council in February, the organization has "between 5,000 and 7,000 members and supporters spread between Iraq" and Syria, "about half of them fighters."

In Iraq, "the organization is still active despite Iraqi counter-terrorism efforts that succeeded in killing approximately 150 ISIS members in 2022," according to the Security Council report.
The report added that the organization is active in Iraq in "rural mountainous areas," taking advantage of "the porous Iraqi-Syrian border."

Despite the decline in its financial reserves, which are currently estimated at between 25 and 50 million dollars, according to the Security Council report, the organization "began to launder money through investments in legitimate businesses such as hotels and real estate" in Syria and Iraq.

The organization also resorted to "stealing cattle to collect money."

The Captive Club: Today, the military court of the occupation in ( Ofer ) extended the detention of Maher Shloun (47 years) from Aqabat Jabr camp / Jericho , until next Monday.

The Prisoner's Club stated that the detainee, Shloun, has been subjected to a long interrogation at the Ofer interrogation center since his arrest on the first of last March. He was also denied access to a lawyer for about a month.

The occupation authorities arrested him and a group of his brothers after storming their house, and later released them, while maintaining his detention.

It is noteworthy that the detainee, Shloun, is a former prisoner who spent three years previously. He is married and the father of three children. He is also the brother of the martyr Jamal Shloun. His family's home was previously demolished, and most of his siblings were arrested for years.

After months of anticipation, US President Joe Biden is expected to officially announce his candidacy for a second term on Tuesday, dispelling concerns expressed about his age.

Neither the White House nor the Democratic Party has officially confirmed this, but the 80-year-old president's candidacy is no longer a secret. If re-elected, Biden will end his second term at the age of 86.
Several reliable media outlets expected this announcement to take place on Tuesday via video.

However, these rumors, which are circulating in all of Washington , must be dealt with with caution, because the Biden camp has hinted several times that an announcement in this regard is imminent, but without this matter being realized.

However, Tuesday's date will not be a coincidence, as April 25 will be exactly the fourth anniversary of Joe Biden's entry into the campaign, at the end of which Democrat Donald Trump was denied a second term.

Announcing the candidacy again on this date, at a time when Americans may witness the same competition that took place in 2020, will carry strong symbolism.

There is no campaign event currently on Biden's agenda for the day. But the president is supposed to speak before a union to present his vision of what will surely be one of the main tenets of his election campaign: his desire to restore the "forgotten" people's "dignity" that Donald Trump knew how to court.

Biden believes that the statistics are on his side, as American presidents generally run and are often re-elected.

But the 80-year-old president defies historical precedent.
In November 2021 and February 2023, the President underwent medical examinations, which concluded that he was in “good health.”
Of course, he shows extraordinary resilience, from international crises to major reforms.

But a Democrat, who is prone to lapses and whose age is evident on his face, should expect mounting Republican attacks on his mental capacity.

Joe Biden took note, according to the polls, that the candidacy of his predecessor Donald Trump (76 years), who was charged by a court in New York, no longer aroused enthusiasm either.

The Democrat thus considers that if he once defeated his Republican predecessor, the divisive figure, he can do so again by projecting his character as a good man and his unifying platform.

There remains an unknown factor: What will Joe Biden's chances be if he faces a younger opponent or competition in November 2024?

Florida Governor Ron DeStantis, the 44-year-old far-right figure, is being circulated heavily. He has not announced his candidacy yet.

This will be the fourth presidential race for Joe Biden, if he officially announces his candidacy. Before he was elected in 2020, he ran for the 1998 and 2008 elections, and each time I suffered a severe defeat. And in 2015, Biden, who was vice president at the time, and was deeply affected by the death of his eldest son, declined to run to succeed Barack Obama.

A 13-year-old child was killed on Monday evening, in mysterious circumstances, in the village of Al-Azazmeh in the Negev , in the occupied interior.

According to the Hebrew website, Ynet, the Israeli police are investigating the circumstances of his death, especially since traces of suffocation were found on his neck.

Today, Monday, a number of citizens were injured as a result of clashes with the occupation forces in Salfit .

According to local sources, 3 citizens were wounded by rubber bullets, one of them in the head, and dozens suffocated by tear gas, in the town of Qarawat Bani Hassan, west of Salfit.

The sources pointed out that the occupation forces stormed the town and confiscated a car.

On Monday, the evacuations of nationals and foreign diplomats from Sudan continued, as the battles between the army and the Rapid Support Forces approached their tenth day, in the absence of any prospect of ending the clashes.

However, the United Nations announced in a statement on Monday the retention of a number of its employees in Sudan, headed by the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General, Volker Berthes, while 700 of its employees, embassies and non-governmental organizations arrived at Port Sudan to evacuate them.

With the continued whistling of bullets and the sound of explosions in Khartoum and other cities, Western and regional capitals were able to open safe paths for the expulsion of foreign nationals with the guarantee of the two conflicting parties, that is, the army commander Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the commander of the Rapid Support Forces Muhammad Hamdan Dagalo.

The fighting, which began on April 15th, has killed more than 420 people, injured nearly 4,000, and put the health care system under enormous pressure to deal with the growing death toll.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned Monday that the ongoing violence in Sudan between the two warring parties could "spread to the entire region and beyond."

He said during a Security Council debate on pluralism that the situation in Sudan "continues to deteriorate."

"The violence must stop. It threatens a catastrophic conflagration inside Sudan that could spread to the entire region and beyond," he added.

And the European Union's foreign policy official, Josep Borrell, announced that the bloc was able to evacuate a thousand of its nationals from Sudan.

"It was a complex and successful operation," he told reporters on Monday, stressing that 21 diplomats from the United Nations mission in Khartoum were expelled, while the European Union ambassador left Khartoum and moved to another part of Sudan.

Borrell thanked France, which since Sunday has led air evacuations to Djibouti using military aircraft.

For his part, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, on Monday, expressed his concern about the presence of the Russian Wagner Group in Sudan, and said in a joint press conference with his Kenyan counterpart in Washington, "We are very concerned about the presence of the Prigozhin Group, the Wagner Group, in Sudan."
And the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on Monday that it had so far evacuated about 400 of its nationals and holders of other nationalities.

And she explained in a statement that "these flights allowed the evacuation of 388 people, including French citizens who expressed their desire to do so, in addition to a large number of nationals of other countries, Europeans in particular, as well as Africans and from the American continent and Asia."

The evacuees held the nationalities of Germany, Austria, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Hungary, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Switzerland, South Africa, Burundi, Ethiopia, Lesotho, Morocco, Namibia, Niger, Uganda and Rwanda, as well as Sudan, the United States, Canada, India, Japan and the Philippines.

The weekend witnessed an acceleration in evacuations, which were carried out by several countries such as the United States, Britain, Germany and China.

A statement by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Monday, stated that it had "peacefully evacuated" the first batch of its nationals, stressing that it would "make every effort to protect the lives, property and safety of more than 1,500 Chinese citizens in Sudan."

For its part, London confirmed, through a government spokesman, that its armed forces "took advantage of a narrow window of opportunity" to complete the evacuation.

The spokesman pointed out that "in light of the continuing violent clashes in Khartoum and the closure of its main airport" because of this since the first day of the outbreak of the fighting, "it is impossible to organize a larger evacuation" at the present time.
Egypt and Saudi Arabia were the most prominent Arabs in terms of evacuations.

And the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on Sunday night, "the evacuation of 436 citizens from Sudan" through the land border between the two countries, while Riyadh announced on Saturday the evacuation of more than 100 Saudis and nationals of other countries by sea to Jeddah, after they moved by land to the city of Port Sudan in eastern Sudan.

On Saturday, Jordan announced the start of the evacuation of about 300 Jordanians, and Baghdad confirmed the evacuation of 14 Iraqis "to a safe location in the Port Sudan area," and efforts are continuing to evacuate others.

On Monday, the Lebanese Foreign Ministry announced the evacuation of 52 people from Port Sudan to Jeddah on board a Saudi navy ship. Also, 105 Libyans left Sudan in the same way, according to what their country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed on Monday.

The Algerian authorities announced the start of the operation on Monday to evacuate diplomats and citizens, while Iraq confirmed the arrival of 14 citizens to the port of Port Sudan.

Indonesia announced the transfer of a group of 538 of its citizens in Sudan from Khartoum to Port Sudan and from there to Jeddah, while another group of 289 is waiting to travel in a second stage.

The government of Chad also reported that it would send planes to the port overlooking the Red Sea to collect 438 of its nationals leaving Khartoum by bus to Port Sudan.

Most of the foreigners who were evacuated are diplomatic personnel, while many civilians are waiting for their turn to be evacuated by air, in convoys of buses and four-wheel drive cars that move with security escorts from Khartoum towards military bases outside it, or to the city of Port Sudan.

Djibouti is an essential station for air evacuations, as military planes transporting civilians from Sudan land there.

And now this country overlooking the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab Strait hosts many foreign military forces, whose members organize the arrivals of dozens of exhausted families.

Since the evacuations accelerated over the weekend, officials and analysts have raised growing fears about the fate of the Sudanese, amid fears that the battles will intensify again once the expulsion of the nationals who wish to do so ends.

"I fear for their future," wrote the Norwegian ambassador, Andre Stiansen.
"Now, weapons and personal interests are more important than values and words... All scenarios are bad," he added.

Leaving Khartoum has become an obsession for its five million residents, in light of the power outages and shortages of supplies and water.

However, leaving is not easy, especially in light of the need for large quantities of fuel to travel the distance towards the Egyptian border to the north (about a thousand kilometers), or to reach Port Sudan (850 kilometers to the east) in the hope of moving from it by sea to another country.

Fuel has become a scarce and expensive currency in Khartoum, which was already suffering from high inflation affecting most basic materials.

And the United Nations warned that "while foreigners who can afford to flee, the impact of violence on the already critical humanitarian situation in Sudan is increasing."

Likewise, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees estimated that 800,000 South Sudanese refugees living in Sudan will depend on themselves to return to their homeland, from which they fled to escape the war.

And forced many agencies of the international organization to suspend their activities in Sudan.

Daglo and Al-Burhan were allies when they carried out a coup in 2021, during which they removed the civilians who were sharing power with them from power, two years after the overthrow of the Omar al-Bashir regime.
But the differences and the struggle for power soon began between them.

The support forces were formed in Darfur to support Bashir's forces in the conflict that the western region witnessed at the beginning of the third millennium.

In light of the difficulty of access to the region, which is one of the poorest regions of Sudan, the United Nations World Food Program reported that "10 vehicles and six food trucks were stolen" in the region.

The program estimated the volume of looted food aid at about "four thousand cubic meters."

On Monday, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken expressed his concern about the presence of the Russian Wagner Group in Sudan , where battles have been going on for ten days between the army and the Rapid Support Forces, leaving hundreds dead.

"We are very concerned about the presence of Prigozhin's group, the Wagner Group, in Sudan," Blinken said in a joint press conference with his Kenyan counterpart.

He added that the Wagner Group, which is active in Mali and the Central African Republic and participates in the Russian invasion of Ukraine, "brings with it wherever it moves more death and destruction."

For his part, Kenyan Foreign Minister Alfred Mutua pointed the finger at countries in the Middle East whose names he did not mention, noting that reports indicated that Egypt and the UAE supported the two parties to the Sudanese conflict.

"We are very concerned about some of our friends in the Middle East as well as Russia and other countries that have for a long time been close to one side," Mutua said.

"This particular time is not appropriate to take sides in the war," the Kenyan minister added.
And he considered that foreign actors "are trying to use Sudan as an arena for any reason."
"We call on the external powers to leave Sudan alone," he added.
