What to know about the Israel-Hezbollah clashes

Israel and Hezbollah have exchanged fire along the Lebanese border since the war in Gaza began, with more than 150,000 people on both sides of the border forced to flee their homes. But the intensity of the attacks has increased in recent days, raising fears of full-scale war on another front.This week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened further military action to ensure the return of civilians to communities in northern Israel. Here are some key questions about the conflict and where it might head:Why are the two sides fighting?Hezbollah, a powerful Lebanese militia and political movement, launched attacks in Israel on October 8, responding to calls from Hamas to open a second front a day after the Palestinian armed group that rules Gaza launched a deadly attack on Isr...

Cancer researchers begin large, long-term study of black women

The American Cancer Society has launched an ambitious, far-reaching study focusing on a population that has long been overlooked, despite high rates of cancer and cancer-related deaths: Black women.The initiative, called VOICES of Black Women, is believed to be the first long-term, zero-target population study specifically on the factors that drive cancer prevalence and death among Black women.The researchers plan to enroll 100,000 cancer-free black women, ages 25 to 55, in Washington, D.C. and 20 states where the majority of black American women reside. Subjects will be interviewed twice a year about their behaviors, environmental exposures and life experiences, and followed for 30 years; any tumors they may develop will be monitored.Similar studies conducted in the past by the American...

The EU votes. It has never been more important.

It is tempting to dismiss the European Parliament elections as the most important elections that don't actually matter.Hundreds of millions of voters in 27 nations will turn out this weekend to vote, but the European Parliament is the least powerful of the European Union's institutions. It is often derided as a talking shop. Its 720 members have limited powers, and while some are rising stars, others are retired politicians or even criminals.But the European Union has never been more important in providing tangible benefits to its citizens, or to the world in being a force for stability and prosperity, since its birth as an economic alliance almost seventy years ago. The Parliament that emerges from these elections, however weak it may be, will serve as a brake or accelerator fo...

US leads the way in antitrust investigations into Nvidia, Microsoft and OpenAI

Federal regulators have reached a deal allowing them to proceed with antitrust investigations into the dominant roles that Microsoft, OpenAI and Nvidia play in the artificial intelligence industry, in the strongest sign of how regulatory scrutiny of the powerful technology has increased.The Justice Department and the Federal Trade Commission reached the deal last week, which is expected to be completed in the next few days, according to two people familiar with the matter, who were not authorized to speak publicly about the confidential discussions.Under the agreement, the Justice Department will take the lead in investigating whether the behavior of Nvidia, the largest maker of AI chips, violated antitrust laws, the sources said. The FTC will play the lead role in examining the conduct o...

An Israeli airstrike unleashes chaos at a Gaza hospital

As dawn broke on Thursday, Haitham Abu Ammar combed through the rubble of the school that had become a refuge for him and thousands of other displaced Gazans. For hours he helped people piece together the limbs of those they loved.“The most painful thing I ever felt was picking up those pieces of meat with my hands,” said Mr. Abu Ammar, a 27-year-old construction worker. “I never thought I would have to do something like this.”Early Thursday morning, Israeli airstrikes hit the school compound, killing dozens of people - including at least nine militants, the Israeli army said.Throughout the day, corpses and mutilated limbs recovered from the rubble were wrapped in blankets, piled on truck beds and taken to Al Aqsa Martyrs' Hospital, the last major medical facility still operating in ...

Hunter Biden's addiction has shocked his family. Has your family had similar problems?

Hunter Biden, the president's son, is on trial in federal court for falsely claiming in a gun application that he had not used illicit drugs. Testimonies from his ex-wife and his ex-girlfriends describe his drug-fueled character; searching for his drug dealer on the streets; his large cash withdrawals from the bank.Hallie Biden, his brother Beau's widow who was dating him in the fall of 2018 when the gun purchase occurred, spoke of his erratic behavior, possession of rocks of crack and cocaine "the size of ping-pong balls, or bigger, maybe” and how she frantically urged him to go to rehab. She, like Mr. Biden, is in recovery.I write about addiction for the New York Times and have spoken to countless families who have shared harrowing experiences. I'm working on an article a...

SpaceX rocket successfully completes first return from space

SpaceX's launch of its giant Starship rocket on Thursday achieved a series of ambitious goals that Elon Musk, the company's chief executive, had set before its fourth test flight.Lifting off from SpaceX's launch pad at 7:50 a.m. in south Texas, near Brownsville, the Starship roared into the sky.After dropping from the upper stage, the booster managed to come to rest gently in the Gulf of Mexico while the second stage spacecraft traveled to the other side of the world, survived the scorching temperatures of atmospheric re-entry, and even made a splashdown checked. , in the Indian Ocean.The flight was not flawless and difficult technical obstacles remain. The successes, surpassing what was achieved during the previous test flight in March, offered optimism that Musk can realize...

What to know about the latest ceasefire proposal in Gaza

President Biden raised hopes last week when he approved a plan that he said could lead to a “permanent cessation of hostilities.” He said Israel has presented the plan, but neither Israel nor Hamas have said definitively whether they will accept or reject the proposal, and they appear to still be locked in disagreement on key issues.Here's a look at what is known about the ceasefire agreement, what key points still need to be negotiated, and the obstacles still to be addressed:What's in the plan?In November, Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire that lasted a week. But the proposal now on the table – as presented by Biden, a senior US administration official and Israeli officials – is more ambitious. Major questions remain unresolved, including whether Hamas will retain control...
