Can anyone explain to me why Israel and only Israel is able to order people from another country to evacuate their home? Anyone? Israel has issued an evacuation order for Tyre, Lebanon, displacing 200,000 more people. Tyre is an ancient Phoenician city with Roman ruins and a hippodrome.

It's World Hypertension Day. Most people with high blood pressure don’t feel any symptoms. And if left untreated, it can cause other health conditions like kidney disease, heart disease and stroke. Learn how to prevent, control & treat it.

The FDA has granted accelerated approval to Voyxact (sibeprenlimab-szsi), a first-in-class monthly injectable treatment for adults with primary immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), also known as Berger’s disease. This autoimmune condition causes the immune system to deposit abnormal IgA antibodies in the kidneys, leading to chronic inflammation, progressive kidney damage, and often eventual kidney failure. Voyxact is a monoclonal antibody that specifically targets and inhibits APRIL (A Proliferation-Inducing Ligand), a protein that drives the production of pathogenic galactose-deficient IgA1. By blocking APRIL, the drug significantly reduces the abnormal antibodies responsible for kidney injury. It is administered as a convenient 400 mg subcutaneous self-injection once every four weeks. In the Phase 3 VISIONARY trial, patients receiving Voyxact achieved a 51% greater reduction in proteinuria (a key marker of kidney damage) at nine months compared to placebo (placebo-adjusted treatment effect: 51.2%, p<0.0001). Proteinuria dropped by approximately 50% in the treatment group versus a slight increase in the placebo group. While the drug has not yet been proven to definitively slow long-term kidney function decline (this is being evaluated in the ongoing confirmatory portion of the VISIONARY trial), the substantial reduction in proteinuria represents a major advance for high-risk IgAN patients who do not respond adequately to standard therapies. Common side effects are generally mild, including upper respiratory infections and injection-site reactions. This approval offers new hope for many patients by providing a targeted, at-home treatment option that may help delay or prevent progression to dialysis and kidney transplantation.

Poor shepherd 😢, imagine being a poor shepherd in a remote desert and you get killed because you discovered a secret military base..

Our @nytimes report finds there was a second Israeli base in Iraq's desert. At least one dated back to the June '25 war. Israel chose Iraq for these covert ops due to US role in Iraq's security affairs. The shepherd who exposed the first base was killed. nytimes.com/2026/05/17/wor…
