  • Indonesia retains top place in World Giving Index with Ukraine climbing to second most generous country

    (Adnkronos) – LONDON, Nov. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Around the world, 4.2 billion people helped someone they didn't know, volunteered time or donated money to a good cause according to the Charities Aid Foundation's World Giving Index 2023. For the sixth year in a row, the world's most generous country is Indonesia. The second most generous country is Ukraine, which is also the Index's biggest riser, increasing its score after ranking tenth last year. Only three of the top 10 are among the world's largest economies (Indonesia, United States, and Canada), while one of the poorest and least developed countries in the world – Liberia – is ranked in fourth highest place.  
    The CAF World Giving Index is one of the biggest surveys on giving ever produced, with millions of people interviewed around the world since 2009. This year's Index includes data from 142 countries where people were asked three questions: have they helped a stranger, given money or volunteered for a good cause over the past month. New data available this year shows the factors that influence global generosity: Neil Heslop OBE, Chief Executive of the Charities Aid Foundation, said:  "The CAF World Giving Index gives us reasons for hopeful optimism at a time of great instability. Generosity is innate to human behaviour and binds us all together as a global community. The diversity of countries leading the index highlights this: they cover the spectrum of economic development, geography, language, religion and culture. Giving is about building a connection with those around us, whether they are across the street or on the other side of the world. "That is why we are calling on governments to do more to encourage those who can, to give the money and time that fosters vibrant, resilient civil society organisations as they face into social and environmental challenges and the impact of conflict and population displacement."

  • Israele: “Presa roccaforte Hamas”. Ostaggi in cambio di tregua: si tratta

    Israele: “Presa roccaforte Hamas”. Ostaggi in cambio di tregua: si tratta

    (Adnkronos) – Dopo "dieci ore" di battaglia i militari israeliani sono riusciti a prendere il controllo di una "roccaforte" di Hamas nella zona di Jabalya, nel nord della Striscia di Gaza secondo le ultime news di oggi 9 novembre. Lo hanno reso noto le forze israeliane (Idf), riferendo sul social X di un'operazione della fanteria. Secondo quanto comunicato, i soldati hanno combattuto con uomini di Hamas e della Jihad Islamica sia "in superficie che lungo un percorso sotterraneo nell'area". Le Idf hanno confermato l'uccisione di "terroristi" e di aver trovato armi e scoperto tunnel "dei terroristi", con un ingresso vicino a un asilo che portava a "un lungo percorso sotterraneo". Non è chiaro se vi siano state perdite tra le fila dei militari israeliani nella battaglia – di cui danno notizia i media israeliani – per la "roccaforte" di Hamas indicata come "avamposto 17". Nel frattempo l'agenzia palestinese Wafa ha riferito di almeno 30 palestinesi uccisi e decine di feriti in raid israeliani ieri sul campo profughi di Jabalya. Intanto diventano sempre più serrate le trattative per una tregua umanitaria a Gaza. Un'intesa per garantire il rilascio di un gran numero di ostaggi detenuti da Hamas a Gaza appare ancora vaga, nonostante continuino attivamente i negoziati che coinvolgono Stati Uniti, Israele, Qatar e Hamas. A portare avanti in prima fila la mediazione sarebbe l'Egitto: si punta su uno scambio, che prevede il rilascio di ostaggi israeliani in cambio di detenuti palestinesi. Secondo quanto riporta una fonte al corrente dei colloqui, citata dalla Bbc, sul tavolo ci sarebbe il rilascio di 12 ostaggi nelle mani di Hamas, la metà dei quali americani, in cambio di una pausa umanitaria di tre giorni. La pausa, evidenzia la fonte, consentirebbe ad Hamas di rilasciare gli ostaggi e all'Egitto di fornire aiuti umanitari sia al sud che al nord di Gaza. Il nodo riguarda la durata della pausa e la situazione nel nord, dove si registrano intensi combattimenti. Dal canto suo il primo ministro israeliano, Benjamin Netanyahu, secondo quanto riportano i media locali ha ribadito che "non ci sarà alcun cessate il fuoco senza il rilascio dei nostri ostaggi".  Sul fronte opposto anche Hamas continua a tenere il punto. "Ribadiamo che l'unica strada" per il rilascio degli ostaggi "è un accordo globale per lo scambio totale o parziale dei prigionieri", ha fatto sapere Abu Obeida, portavoce delle Brigate al-Qassam, l'ala militare di Hamas.  "A Rafah, sono stato alle porte di quello che è l'incubo che vivono a Gaza. Sento, nel profondo, il dolore e l'immensa sofferenza di ogni persona i cui cari sono stati uccisi. Dobbiamo tutti sentire questo dolore condiviso e porre fine a questo incubo". Lo ha detto l'Alto commissario per i diritti umani delle Nazioni Unite, Volker Turk, che ieri ha visitato il valico tra l'Egitto e la Striscia di Gaza. E ha accusato sia i gruppi armati palestinesi che Israele di aver commesso crimini di guerra, in relazione all'attacco del 7 ottobre ed alla "punizione collettiva dei civili" e alla loro "evacuazione forzata illegale". Sei persone sono rimaste uccise in un raid delle forze israeliane su un edificio residenziale a Khan Younis, nella parte meridionale della Striscia di Gaza. Ne dà notizia Al Jazeera, citando l'agenzia di stampa palestinese Wafa. "I corpi di sei persone sono stati recuperati a seguito di un attacco israeliano su un edificio residenziale nella città di Bani Suhaila, a est di Khan Younis, nella parte sud di Gaza", scrive Al Jazeera. Sono 845 i civili israeliani uccisi finora identificati nel centro allestito all'interno della base militare di Shura fa sapere dal canto suo la polizia israeliana, citata da 'Ha'aretz'. "Mentre morti e feriti a Gaza continuano ad aumentare a causa dell'intensificarsi delle ostilità, l'intenso sovraffollamento e l'interruzione dei sistemi sanitari, idrici e igienico-sanitari rappresentano un ulteriore pericolo: la rapida diffusione di malattie infettive. Alcune tendenze preoccupanti stanno già emergendo". A lanciare l'allarme è l'Organizzazione mondiale della sanità. "La mancanza di carburante ha portato alla chiusura degli impianti di desalinizzazione, aumentando significativamente il rischio di infezioni batteriche, come la diarrea, che si diffondono dal momento che le persone consumano acqua contaminata – segnala l'Oms in una nota – La mancanza di carburante ha inoltre interrotto tutta la raccolta dei rifiuti solidi, creando un ambiente favorevole alla rapida e diffusa proliferazione di insetti e roditori che possono trasportare e transitare malattie. La situazione è particolarmente preoccupante per i quasi 1,5 milioni di sfollati presenti in tutta Gaza, in particolare per coloro che vivono in rifugi gravemente sovraffollati con scarso accesso a strutture igieniche e acqua potabile", condizione che aumenta il rischio di trasmissione di malattie infettive. "Gli attuali trend di malattia sono molto preoccupanti. Da metà ottobre 2023 sono stati segnalati oltre 33.500 casi di diarrea. Oltre la metà riguardano bambini sotto i 5 anni: un aumento significativo rispetto a una media di duemila casi mensili negli under 5, registrata nel corso del 2021 e del 2022. Si registrano poi 8.900 casi di scabbia e pidocchi, 1.005 casi di varicella, 12.635 casi di eruzioni cutanee e sono stati segnalati anche 54.866 casi di infezioni delle vie respiratorie superiori", elenca l'Agenzia Onu per la salute, ribadendo la richiesta di "un accesso urgente e accelerato agli aiuti umanitari – inclusi carburante, acqua, cibo e forniture mediche – all’interno e in tutta la Striscia di Gaza,, del rilascio incondizionato di tutti gli ostaggi e di un cessate il fuoco umanitario per prevenire ulteriori morti e sofferenze".​ Sei persone sono rimaste uccise in un raid delle forze israeliane su un edificio residenziale a Khan Younis, nella parte meridionale della Striscia di Gaza. Ne dà notizia Al Jazeera, citando l'agenzia di stampa palestinese Wafa. "I corpi di sei persone sono stati recuperati a seguito di un attacco israeliano su un edificio residenziale nella città di Bani Suhaila, a est di Khan Younis, nella parte sud di Gaza", scrive Al Jazeera. —internazionale/esteriwebinfo@adnkronos.com (Web Info)

  • E’ ancora allerta meteo sull’Italia, in arrivo nuova fase di maltempo intenso

    E’ ancora allerta meteo sull’Italia, in arrivo nuova fase di maltempo intenso

    (Adnkronos) – Nuova allerta meteo arancione da oggi, giovedì 9 novembre, dal pomeriggio in Toscana fino a domani venerdì 10 diramata dal Cfr – Centro Funzionale Regionale della Regione Toscana. In via precauzionale il Comune di Prato ha disposto la chiusura di scuole, cimiteri e giardini con il sindaco che ha invitato a restare a casa. Anche su altre 4 regioni è stata disposta l'allerta gialla per rischio idraulico, temporali e idrogeologico: si tratta di Emilia–Romagna, settori della Toscana, Sardegna e Umbria. Sta infatti per arrivare sull'Italia una nuova perturbazione e il quadro meteorologico tornerà a peggiorare sul nostro Paese con il ritorno di forti piogge, temporali e anche della neve.  La sala operativa della Protezione civile regionale ha emesso un nuovo bollettino di criticità arancione per piogge e rischio idraulico e idrogeologico che interesserà la Toscana nord-occidentale dalle 16 di oggi giovedì 9 novembre alle 14 di domani venerdì 10 novembre. Le precipitazioni si faranno più intense nella seconda parte della giornata di giovedì e si estenderanno dalla costa verso l'interno. Dalla sera sono attesi anche temporali. Cumulati massimi fino a elevati sono previsti sulle zone costiere e sulle province di Massa-Carrara, Lucca, Pisa, Pistoia e Prato, interessando anche territori che, a causa degli eventi dei giorni scorsi, si trovano in condizioni di particolare vulnerabilità. Nell’area Bisenzio-Ombrone pistoiese è previsto anche un codice giallo per rischio idraulico del reticolo principale dalle 18 di giovedì alle 14 di venerdì. Codice giallo, infine, dalle 16 di giovedì alle 14 di venerdì, per rischio idrogeologico e idraulico del reticolo minore, con forti temporali, nel resto del territorio regionale. Una nuova fase di maltempo intenso è attesa dunque per oggi si legge su iLMeteo.it. In particolare una nuova perturbazione atlantica, spinta dal ciclone d’Islanda, raggiungerà nelle prossime ore l’Italia: sono attese le prime piogge al Nord-ovest poi dal pomeriggio anche sul versante tirrenico. In serata i fenomeni si estenderanno anche al Nord-est e al Sud e assumeranno una maggiore intensità: dovremo prestare attenzione soprattutto nelle zone recentemente colpite dal forte maltempo e dalle alluvioni, i terreni sono saturi e non sono escluse nuove rapide piene fluviali.  Questa perturbazione porterà anche la neve sulle Alpi fino ai 1000 metri di quota e, localmente, sull’Appennino settentrionale fino ai 1500 metri: sarà dunque responsabile di un ulteriore calo delle temperature. La data di oggi 9 novembre vedrà piombare tutta l’Italia in pieno autunno e non registreremo più, nemmeno al Sud, i picchi di 27-29 gradi degli ultimi giorni.  Domani, venerdì 10 novembre, segnerà poi, di nuovo, freccia in giù per il barometro con la perturbazione atlantica ancora attiva: sono attese schiarite al Nord-ovest ma ancora tante piogge sulle regioni tirreniche e sul Triveneto, qui anche a causa della formazione di un ciclone secondario, detto in gergo meteorologico ‘Venezia Low’. Durante il weekend, il tempo sarà invece bizzarro: il meteo risulterà ‘combattuto’ tra proverbi antichi e cambiamenti climatici recent —cronacawebinfo@adnkronos.com (Web Info)

  • China Unicom and Huawei Help Exquisite Automotive Deploy a Commercial 5G-Advanced Flexible Production Line

    (Adnkronos) – BAODING, China, Nov. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Recently, China Unicom and Huawei began to help the Baoding Automation Technology Branch of Exquisite Automotive Systems Co., Ltd. ("EA") deploy a commercial 5G-Advanced flexible production line that features ultra-high reliability and ultra-low latency. At Great Wall Motor's factory in Baoding, Hebei, 5G-Advanced equipment is being used in the car roof production line. Traditional industrial control relies on wired networks to realize the serial connection and control of terminal equipment. However, after a certain period of operations, wire abrasion in mobile application scenarios, such as robot arms, slide units, and swiveling tables, often results in production interruptions, causing an average of about 60 hours of downtime a year. 5G-Advanced networks provide ultra-high reliability and ultra-low latency, making them the perfect choice for high-end core manufacturing processes that require high response speeds. Wireless industrial networks can completely eliminate the constraints of wires. Compared to wired networks, the 5G-Advanced solution facilitates easier network deployment and can better support flexible manufacturing. 5G-Advanced networks also boost efficiency by integrating multiple functions, such as data collection (IT) and industrial control (OT) functions that are provided by two separate private lines in wired networks. Located in Baoding, Hebei, EA is a subsidiary of Great Wall Motor Co., Ltd. (GWM), and has an annual turnover of more than CNY2 billion. EA is responsible for the development of intelligent equipment and the design and integration of automated production lines for GWM and other auto companies. At the press conference, Yuan Zhanjiang, Deputy General Manager of EA's Industry Intelligence Department, stated, "Digitalization is a must for the transformation and upgrade of manufacturing enterprises. 5G-Advanced features ultra-high reliability, low latency, and easy deployment. These features have been verified in EA's 5G-Advanced industrial Internet lab, and will soon start supporting our commercial production lines. We will seize the opportunity presented by enterprise transformation and upgrade, and leverage digital technologies to continually improve our smart manufacturing capabilities, and contribute to the transformation and upgrade of GWM and the wider manufacturing industry." Today, many countries view industrial digital transformation as a new driver of economic growth. Therefore, they are striving to make manufacturing increasingly digital, connected, and intelligent. Digital operation capabilities are now a must for manufacturing enterprises, and flexible smart manufacturing is continuously gaining traction. Fan Ji'an, Chief Big Data Scientist of China Unicom, pointed out that China Unicom is accelerating the construction of digital infrastructure and deepening integrated innovation in digital technologies. Fan said. "Powered by 5G-Advanced, industrial applications are moving from auxiliary production to core production systems. We are seeing more typical 5G-Advanced applications appear in key scenarios, further driving the manufacturing industry to go digital." China Unicom believes that 5G-Advanced applications can create greater value for enterprises. "We are willing to work with all sectors to create new momentum for innovation, and promote high-quality development by integrating the digital and real economies," Fan continued. The global industry is actively promoting the development of 5G-Advanced. During the Global Mobile Broadband Forum that concluded last month, 13 global operators, including China Unicom, jointly launched the first wave of 5G-Advanced networks, marking the transition of 5G-Advanced from technical verification to commercial deployment. 2024 will mark the first year of 5G-Advanced's commercial use. Photo – https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/2271837/image_1.jpg

    Israele-Hamas, ipotesi tregua in cambio di ostaggi ma l’intesa è ancora vaga

    (Adnkronos) – Un'intesa per garantire il rilascio di un gran numero di ostaggi detenuti da Hamas a Gaza appare ancora vaga, nonostante continuino attivamente i negoziati che coinvolgono Stati Uniti, Israele, Qatar e Hamas.  Anche l'Egitto ieri ha annunciato di essere vicino a chiudere un accordo per una tregua umanitaria a Gaza sulla base di uno scambio che prevede il rilascio di ostaggi israeliani in cambio di detenuti palestinesi.  Ma Non c'è alcuna prospettiva che Israele accetti una pausa prolungata dei combattimenti senza che venga rilasciato un numero sostanziale di ostaggi, ha dichiarato alla Cnn un funzionario statunitense.  E del resto è stato lo stesso premier israeliano Benjamin Netanyahu a ribadire ieri che "non ci sarà alcun cessate il fuoco senza il rilascio dei nostri ostaggi".  Sul fronte opposto anche Hamas continua a tenere il punto. "Ribadiamo che l'unica strada" per il rilascio degli ostaggi "è un accordo globale per lo scambio totale o parziale dei prigionieri", ha fatto sapere Abu Obeida, portavoce delle Brigate al-Qassam, l'ala militare di Hamas. I colloqui finora hanno prodotto molte idee, tra cui il rilascio di circa 10-15 ostaggi in cambio di un cessate il fuoco di uno o due giorni, hanno detto fonti diplomatiche, precisando però che a oggi una simile proposta non era ancora sul tavolo. Un funzionario israeliano ha detto che Tel Aviv è "pronto a una pausa" se ci sarà la certezza che Hamas "è seriamente intenzionato a rilasciare gli ostaggi".  Quello che non è chiara è la durata della pausa che Israele sarebbe disposto ad accettare e quale sarebbe il numero accettabile di ostaggi rilasciati.    —internazionale/esteriwebinfo@adnkronos.com (Web Info)
