In February, the Palestinian Authority announced the end of the programme to provide payments to families of Palestinians killed or imprisoned by Israel. Known as the Martyrs’ Fund it guaranteed the Palestinians who are imprisoned by Israel – including those convicted for involvement in terror attacks — monthly “salaries” on a sliding scale depending on sentence length, with an additional stipend for their families, and grants available for things such as health insurance and education. The programme had been criticised by the US, the EU and Israel as a mechanism “rewarding attacks” against Israel, which universally panned it as “pay…
Published on 18/11/2025 – 7:01 GMT+1 Artificial Intelligence (AI) is making it nearly impossible to distinguish human responses from bots in online public opinion polls, according to new research. A Dartmouth University study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on Monday shows that large language models (LLMs) can corrupt public opinion surveys at scale. “They can mimic human personas, evade current detection methods, and be trivially programmed to systematically bias online survey outcomes,” according to the study. The findings reveal a “critical vulnerability in our data infrastructure,” posing a “potential existential threat to unsupervised online research,”…
TotalEnergies, which has claimed it lost none of its workforce during the attack, denies the accusations. After suspending plant construction after the assault, the company moved to restart operations last month and hopes to start pumping gas by 2029. Pouyanné revealed last month that his company has incurred an extra $4.5 billion in costs since 2021, a sum he wants the Mozambican government to reimburse. The project also depends on $14.9 billion in loans, some of which are uncertain. The British state lender UK Export Finance, which pledged $1.1 billion, has yet to release the funds after it opened an…

TotalEnergies a été formellement accusée de complicité de crimes de guerre et de torture dans une plainte déposée lundi à Paris au sujet d’un massacre sur son site gazier du Mozambique. Ce massacre avait été révélé pour la première fois par une enquête de POLITICO l’année dernière. La plainte, déposée par le Centre européen pour les droits constitutionnels et les droits humains (ECCHR), une association de défense des droits humains, affirme que TotalEnergies s’est rendue complice de ce qui est désormais appelé le “massacre des conteneurs” en ayant “directement financé et soutenu matériellement” les soldats mozambicains qui protégeaient son enceinte…
The UN Security Council has approved on Monday a US-drafted resolution supporting President Donald Trump’s peace plan for Gaza, which includes the establishment of an international stabilisation force, a transitional authority overseen by Trump, and envisions a possible path to an independent Palestinian state. 13 out of the 15 member states voted in favour of the resolution, with abstentions by Russia and China. The vote endorses Trump’s 20-point ceasefire plan, which it laid out earlier in September. The plan proposes the creation of an transitional authority called the “Board of Peace,” a board led by Trump himself tasked to oversee…
Brexit Minister Nick Thomas-Symonds has accepted that Britain would have to make contributions to cover “the cost of administration” and pay its way in schemes that involve pooling resources — though always with a “careful analysis of value for money.” But he’s also been clear that the U.K. “would not make a general contribution into the EU budget” as part of the reset. To anyone who’s read a British newspaper recently, the context in Westminster is obvious. Later this month, Chancellor Rachel Reeves will deliver a painful government budget expected to be stuffed with tax rises and spending cuts. Later…
The U.K. prime minister is heading to the COP30 climate summit in Brazil to show climate still matters Britain, even in the age of Trump. But back at home, Starmer blows hot and cold on all things green. Nov 6 6 mins read
By Euronews with AP Published on 17/11/2025 – 8:10 GMT+1 In a referendum held on Sunday, Ecuadorians voted against a proposal to host foreign military bases, as well as another to launch a process that could lead to a new constitution. It was a significant defeat for President Daniel Noboa, a conservative who is closely aligned with the Trump administration. He had pushed Ecuador’s courts to include the question about rewriting the constitution. Six out of 10 voters said no. Noboa said in an X message after the results were released that his government will “respect the will of the people” and would…
