האקלים התערער. זה המצב אצלנו ביום רביעי: 10-14 מעלות מעל הממוצע באזורים רבים בארץ. בכמה מקומות מעל 50 מעלות! שיאי חום היסטוריים צפויים להישבר. גל חום חריג וארוך, הנמתח מספרד שבמערב עד עירק שבמזרח. תדמיינו מה יקרה אם החשמל יפול? עם מי שעובד בחוץ? עם העצים והחיות? עם המזון שלנו?

1/3 קרוב ל- 800 חברי סגל במוסדות אקדמיים בישראל ביניהם מומחי משפט, בריאות, ורפואה קוראים לממשלה לנקוט בצעדים דחופים כדי למנוע רעב בעזה. החותמים מזהירים מפני הקטסטרופה ההומניטרית המתפתחת בעזה, וקוראים לפתוח מעברים נוספים לסיוע הומניטרי ולהסיר כל מכשול לכניסה של סיוע נדרש.

Sharing our latest research with mixed emotions. This paper, a collaboration between @bengurionu (BGU) and Israel's EMS, examines the medical response to the tragic Oct 7 attack. Though difficult, it's crucial to learn from these events. #EmergencyResponse #EmergencyHealthcare

Surveillance camera footage from Netiv Haasara shows a large barrage of rockets being launched from northern Gaza, followed by a massive blast in the Strip, apparently caused by a failed projectile.

@amirbohbot הלב נשבר 💔

@bokeralmog א. כי אנחנו לא חיות, ו- ב. כי יש כללי אתיקה ברורים לטיפול באדם פצוע, לא משנה מי הוא ומה הוא. ביום שצוותי רפואה יתעלמו מכללי אתיקה בסיסיים כאלה - אבדנו.

💡Severely energy-poor households were more prone to forgo medications and health treatments

💡Energy poverty is, therefore, a constant, silent stressor on health systems in a warming #climate 🌍

💡Climate-sensitive health policies are required

We explored their coping processes, unique distress symptoms, and the ways in which their social and physical environment can foster #resilience. Our results suggest that growing up in communities exposed to ongoing conflict leaves a deep imprint,
