In the United Kingdom, Belgium, and Germany recently, police nabbed folks who had been previously convicted on terror charges, [reported](~/AASU4wA~/RgRnLfDhP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9saW5rLndoZXJlYnkudXMvejh3ZG8zaDEzby8_bGhfYWlkPTQ1MjExMTkmbGhfY2lkPWQzZDU1eDR1OWJXA3NwY0IKZUXoa0tlrMxSjFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODlAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAABa) the Times of Israel. One suspect told a friend in Syria that he might attack a pro-Israel demonstration. Another said the violence in Gaza was inspiring him to die as a martyr in an explosion. The arrests were a sign of the times. For example, Europol’s executive director Catherine De Bolle recently [told](~/AASU4wA~/RgRnLfDhP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9saW5rLndoZXJlYnkudXMveWMwanFmcDI3Ny8_bGhfYWlkPTQ1MjExMTkmbGhfY2lkPWQzZDU1eDR1OWJXA3NwY0IKZUXoa0tlrMxSjFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODlAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAABa) ABC News that Islamic terrorism was among the biggest threats to Western Europe. She noted that young Muslims alienated and shut out of Europe’s secular and often closed societies were especially vulnerable to radicalization. In Arras in northern France, for instance, French officials recently mobilized as many as 7,000 troops after a former student fatally stabbed their teacher and injured three others, the Associated Press [wrote](~/AASU4wA~/RgRnLfDhP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9saW5rLndoZXJlYnkudXMvN3hqY2Vqcnd1OS8_bGhfYWlkPTQ1MjExMTkmbGhfY2lkPWQzZDU1eDR1OWJXA3NwY0IKZUXoa0tlrMxSjFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODlAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAABa).

Millions of migrants fleeing war or seeking economic opportunities have been attempting to venture to Europe since 2011 when the Syrian Civil War sent the first large groups to the West. More than 36,000 migrants entered Southern Europe in the first three months of 2023, CNN [reported](~/AASU4wA~/RgRnLfDhP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9saW5rLndoZXJlYnkudXMvY3Vta3JpcHd0aS8_bGhfYWlkPTQ1MjExMTkmbGhfY2lkPWQzZDU1eDR1OWJXA3NwY0IKZUXoa0tlrMxSjFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODlAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAABa).

The Supreme Court’s ruling comes at the time of year ahead of winter when air quality normally drops in the capital, when winds trap pollutants from various sources, such as vehicles, and industrial and agricultural waste. To fight pollution, New Delhi stopped local construction, closed primary schools until Nov. 10 and is planning to impose restrictions on the use of vehicles next week. But farmers in the adjacent states, including Punjab and Haryana, have been burning crop stubble left behind following a rice harvest in late October and early November. For the farmers, the burning is necessary in order to clear their lands before planting wheat crops. Burning crop residue has been practiced for years, but the resulting smoke has accounted for 30 to 40 percent of New Delhi’s October-November pollution. On Tuesday, the city’s air quality index stood at 306, a level considered ‘hazardous’ by Swiss group IQAir. In its ruling Tuesday, the court ordered state officials and local police to ensure that farmers stop burning the crops. It also recommended a gradual switch-over from rice crops to less water-intensive crops. However, the court has issued similar orders in past years with mixed results. State authorities noted that they are unable to completely halt the burning despite issuing fines. Some lamented that farmers are also hostile toward officials. Both federal and state governments have been providing subsidies for improved harvesting equipment and stubble decomposers. These initiatives aim to assist farmers while raising awareness about hazards arising from the practice, which has reduced over the years but is still a major issue.

Prosecutors also charged Infrastructure Minister Joao Calamba in the probe.

He resigned, he said, because it would be impossible to do the job properly while the inquiry was underway. The probe is the latest in a series of scandals impacting the Socialist government since it won an absolute majority in last year’s general election, Politico [noted](~/AASU4wA~/RgRnLfDhP0REaHR0cHM6Ly9saW5rLndoZXJlYnkudXMvdWUybm11bzZoYi8_bGhfYWlkPTQ1MjExMTkmbGhfY2lkPWQzZDU1eDR1OWJXA3NwY0IKZUXoa0tlrMxSjFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODlAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAABa). Costa, who has led the country for eight years, said he would not run for prime minister again. Now, President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa will talk with party leaders, likely Wednesday, before deciding whether to either appoint a new prime minister or call a snap general election – the second in two years. Meanwhile, the opposition has demanded that the entire executive branch step down.

In 1994, the group – officially known as Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) – launched an armed uprising in the southern state of Chiapas, bordering Guatemala. Since then, the Zapatistas have remained in their “autonomous” townships and have refused government aid programs. In a statement Monday, the group alluded to waves of gang violence in the areas close to the Guatemalan border – but did not clarify whether that was the reason for the dissolution. The group said it will elaborate “in upcoming statements,” adding that they will also “begin explaining what the new structure of Zapatista autonomy will look like.” The group is known for its cryptic statements, but Gaspar Morquecho, an anthropologist studying the EZLN, suggested that the group has become increasingly isolated over the years. It has cut off ties with other organizations and many young people have moved out of the townships to search for employment or more education opportunities. Others suggested the dissolution could be tied to next year’s presidential elections. Zapatistas have run candidates in the past. Even so, the announcement comes at a time when Chiapas has seen an increase in human trafficking involving migrants, narco-trafficking and violence among drug cartels. The movement has warned that many of the areas in Chiapas are not safe for residents or outsiders. Despite the government sending thousands of soldiers to the state, the Zapatistas said crime goes on unabated.

Locally known as arrau, the freshwater turtles are found throughout the Amazon River and its tributaries. During dry seasons, thousands of females go to beaches along the river to lay their eggs. But while other turtles usually leave their younglings to fend for themselves after hatching, arrau moms remain on the shore for two months until their little ones emerge. Using microphones planted on nests, a research team noticed that turtle hatchlings emit soft, almost inaudible popping or chirping sounds within their eggs, enabling them to synchronize their emergence with other hatchlings. This synchronized hatching ensures they can make a coordinated dash to the safety of the river and evade potential predators, challenging the belief that turtles are solitary and non-communicative creatures. Even the mothers appear to respond to these calls during their long stay nearby, a behavior akin to parental care, which was previously underestimated. Meanwhile, the young turtles migrate with the moms instead of finding their own way. This newfound understanding of arrau turtles’ social dynamics and behaviors emphasizes the need for further research on turtles overall, including how noise pollution affects their communication. Many turtle species, despite their ancient lineage, are at risk of extinction due to factors, such as climate change, habitat destruction and hunting. Today, illegal trade in turtle meat remains a significant threat.
