1948年以色列建国战争期间,Yusuf Abu Hamam一家被迫离开位于al-Joura的家园,如今这个村庄只剩下几段石墙,早已被以色列军方拆毁,并被阿什凯隆南部的居民区和国家公园覆盖。

阿布·哈马姆一家后来迁居到阿什凯隆的一个社区,他也在那里度过了大部分人生,但这片社区如今同样大面积沦为废墟。报道显示,原本的村庄和后来居住的街区都已面目全非,成为这段流离失所历史的又一见证。

这则报道借由阿布·哈马姆家族的经历,呈现了1948年巴勒斯坦人被迫离乡的长期影响,以及这些失去的村庄和社区在多年后仍难以被寻回的现实。

‘May do it. May not do it’: Trump keeps up suspense over arms to Taiwan, says no to war | “可能会做,也可能不会做”:特朗普就对台军售继续保持悬念,称不愿打仗

美国总统特朗普表示,美国不会因台湾问题与中国开战,并称他在访华期间与中国国家主席习近平就台湾问题“谈了很多”。

特朗普是在北京接受福克斯新闻主持人布雷特·拜尔采访时作出上述表态。他同时没有明确批准对台湾出售武器,这也使未来大规模军售方案仍存在不确定性。

特朗普还表示,他并不希望看到“有人宣布独立”,而美国却要为此远赴约9500英里介入冲突。相关言论显示,台湾问题仍是美中关系中的敏感议题。

Hong Kong police call to criminalise bid-rigging in wake of Tai Po estate blaze | 香港警方呼吁将串标行为刑事化,回应大埔屋苑火灾事件

香港警方建议推动立法,将围标行为纳入刑事处罚,并由指定机构负责执法,同时为揭发者提供更有吸引力的宽大处理和合作协议。

香港有组织罪案及三合会调查科警司林启灼在向由法官主持的独立委员会提交的材料中指出,现行《竞争条例》下的民事执法模式,对打击围标的威慑力有限,难以有效遏制相关违法行为。他表示,应通过更强硬的法律手段和配套措施,提高举报和配合调查的意愿。

这项建议出现在去年11月宏福苑重大火灾调查之后。该事故是香港数十年来最致命的火灾之一,社会对建筑工程、招标及监管制度的关注持续升高。警方此时提出改革建议,反映当局希望加强相关制度,防止类似问题再次发生。

Rapid-fire to restrained: China state visit reveals a changed Trump on social media | 从火力全开到收敛克制:社交媒体上的中国国事访问显露出不一样的特朗普

美国总统特朗普在对中国进行国事访问期间,网络发声明显收敛,抵京后发布的社交媒体内容只有10条,主要是他在北京的到达画面以及中国国家主席习近平的正式接待场景。

与他平时高调、频繁发帖的风格不同,这次特朗普在北京期间的社交平台表态较为克制。最新帖子中,他称习近平是“世界上最伟大的领导人之一”,并表示美国也应该像中国一样拥有一个宴会厅。

整体来看,特朗普此次访华期间的线上表达以展示到访和礼节性互动为主,较少出现以往常见的强硬或争议性言论,反映出这次访问在公开传播上的不同基调。
