[B'Tselem בצלם بتسيلم @btselem]

New footage obtained by B’Tselem uncovers the moments when the Abu Haikal family was shot. Seven-month-old Sam Abu Haikal was killed in the shooting, and both his parents were injured. The footage clearly shows that the Israeli soldier fired at the car as it was slowing to a stop. The car was far from the soldiers and posed no danger to them whatsoever.

Moments later, in another video obtained by B’Tselem, seven-month-old Sam’s father, Fahed, is seen just after his son was shot. Fahed is holding baby Sam in his arms, trying to stop the bleeding from his head with his hands, while Sam’s mother, Daniyah, who was also injured by the gunfire while holding her son, is seen sitting on the ground, next to the car.

Last Friday, 5 June, an Israeli soldier fired at a Palestinian family driving home from a family visit, as they sat in their car in the Tel Rumeidah neighborhood in Hebron. The family was shot as the car was slowing to a stop at the soldier’s command. Sam, a seven‑month‑old baby who was in his mother’s arms in the back seat, was struck in the head and pronounced dead shortly afterward. Sam’s parents were also injured by the gunfire; his mother is still in the hospital. After the shooting, the soldier who fired and another soldier who was with him left the scene without checking the car or offering any assistance to the critically wounded baby or to his mother.

In the past two and a half years, Israel has killed tens of thousands of children in Gaza and the West Bank. The immunity it gets from the international community has led to a reality where, under Israeli rule, Palestinian lives are entirely disposable – even a seven‑month‑old baby.

@AmazonHelp Can you send another link?

@amazonIN

I ordered a Phillips air fryer for my parents back home and it was total disaster.

The air fryer was defective, they contacted Phillips customer center only to found out it was a different product. Now, Philips won't service it, Amazon won't take any responsibility.

It's been one week and I got no response yet. The representative who contacted me had told me that I will hear back in 3-5 days

@ArmenAgha We have discussed correlation between tokens (r^l) mathematically for each component of the standard transformer model in our ICML publication.

@AxisBankSupport unable to use Axis Bank NetBanking or mobile banking for a week and I've not got any helpful response from the relationship manager, branch manager, nodal officer, helplines inspite of multiple calls, messages, emails.

Very disappointed in Axis Bank Support!

@pengrourou @MartinKocour @ieeeICASSP You mean it would stay open for another 48 hours?

@xl_nlp @ChanghanWang @mr_cheu @juanmiguelpino 2. You have provided the ablation studies using only the EnDe language pair. Don't you think the ablation results would vary a lot based on the setting(X-En or En-X or many to many)?

[Mohd Abbas Zaidi @mabbas_ai]

@xl_nlp @ChanghanWang @mr_cheu @juanmiguelpino Amazing work! The results are very interesting. I have a few queries.
1. How do you achieve one-to-many decoding? Do you feed a langauge token to the decoder? 1/2

@BLRAirport
One of my 2 bags(SQ658164) went missing from the flight SQ504 this morning(Image Attached). It has been around 10 hours and I have not received any response.
Kindly look into this!

[Mohd Abbas Zaidi @mabbas_ai]

@SingaporeAir I have sent the details on the email given. Kindly look into this with priority.

[Mohd Abbas Zaidi @mabbas_ai]

@SingaporeAir The bag contained my clothes. I've cancelled a trip which was sceduled tomorrow.
I have 15 days for a vacation, with other trips planned. It has been 16 hours now and there is no information. The contact number provided rarely receives my calls.
I'm shocked at such a response!

[Mohd Abbas Zaidi @mabbas_ai]

@SingaporeAir I have filed a missing baggage request at the Bangalore airport. Where can I send the details? I was asked to wait for 4-5 hours, however, the baggage hasn't been tracked yet.
Current Status: 'TRACING CONTINUES. PLEASE CHECK BACK LATER'

[Mohd Abbas Zaidi @mabbas_ai]

@SingaporeAir I was shifted from SQ502 to SQ504 because the flight SQ611 was delayed. I could've boarded SQ502 but the staff told me that luggage might get delayed, hence I decided to travel using SQ504. Even then, my luggage didn't reach
