six-day-old US pier project in Gaza is starting to get more aid to Palestinians in need, but conditions are challenging, US officials said on Thursday.\u00a0 \n\nThat reflects the larger problems bringing food and other supplies to starving people in the besieged territory. \n\nThe floating pier had a troubled launch, with crowds overrunning some of the first trucks coming from the new US-led sea route and taking its contents over the weekend. One man in the crowd was shot dead in still unexplained circumstances. It led to a two-day suspension of aid distribution. \n\nThe US military worked with the UN and Israeli officials to select safer alternate routes for trucks coming from the pier, Vice Admiral Brad Cooper told reporters on Thursday. \n\nAs a result, the pier on Wednesday accounted for 27 of the 70 total trucks of aid that the UN was able to round up from all land and sea crossings into Gaza for distribution to civilians, the US said. \n\nThat's a fraction of the 150 truckloads of food, emergency nutrition treatment and other supplies that US officials aim to bring in when the sea route is working at maximum capacity. \n\nGaza needs 600 trucks entering each day, according to the US Agency for International Development, to curb a famine that the heads of USAID and the UN World Food Programme have said has begun in the north and to keep it from spreading south. \n\nOnly one of the 54 trucks that came from the pier on Tuesday and Wednesday encountered any security issues on their way to aid warehouses and distribution points, US officials said. They called the issues \u201cminor\u201d but gave no details. \n\nPier 'humanitarian theatre', critics say \n\nA deepening Israeli offensive in the southern city of Rafah has made it impossible for aid shipments to get through the crossing there, which is a key source of fuel and food coming into Gaza.\u00a0 \n\nIsrael says it is bringing aid in through another border crossing, Kerem Shalom, but humanitarian organisations say Israeli military operations make it difficult for them to retrieve the aid there for distribution. \n\nThe Biden administration last week launched the \u20ac296 million floating pier for a new maritime aid route into Gaza as the seven-month-long Israel-Hamas war and Israeli restrictions on land crossings have severely limited food deliveries to 2.3 million Palestinians. \n\nFor all humanitarian efforts, \u201cthe risks are manifold,\u201d Daniel Dieckhaus, USAID's response director for Gaza, said at a briefing with Cooper. \u201cThis is an active conflict with deteriorating conditions.\u201d \n\nDieckhaus rejected charges from some aid groups that the pier is diverting attention from what the US, UN and relief workers say is the essential need for Israel to allow full access to land crossings for humanitarian shipments. \n\nFor instance, Jeremy Konyndyk, a former USAID official now leading Refugees International, tweeted that \u201cthe pier is humanitarian theatre.\u201d \n\n\u201cI would not call, within a couple of days, getting enough food and other supplies for tens of thousands of people for a month theater,\u201d Dieckhaus said Thursday when asked about the criticism. \n\nAt maximum capacity, the pier would bring in enough food for 500,000 of Gaza's people.

It led to a two-day suspension of aid distribution.<\/p>\n<p>The US military worked with the UN and Israeli officials to select safer alternate routes for trucks coming from the pier, Vice Admiral Brad Cooper told reporters on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, the pier on Wednesday accounted for 27 of the 70 total trucks of aid that the UN was able to round up from all land and sea crossings into Gaza for distribution to civilians, the US said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget widget--type-tweet widget--size-fullwidth widget--align-center\">\n <div class=\"widget__wrapper\">\n <div class=\"widget__ratio widget__ratio\u2014auto\">\n <div class=\"widget__contents\">\n <figure class=\"widget__figure\">\n <div class=\"widget__tweet\" data-tweet-id=\"1791604679345893445\"><\/div>\n <\/figure>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>That's a fraction of the 150 truckloads of food, emergency nutrition treatment and other supplies that US officials aim to bring in when the sea route is working at maximum capacity.<\/p>\n<p>Gaza needs 600 trucks entering each day, according to the US Agency for International Development, to curb a famine that the heads of USAID and the UN World Food Programme have said has begun in the north and to keep it from spreading south.<\/p>\n<p>Only one of the 54 trucks that came from the pier on Tuesday and Wednesday encountered any security issues on their way to aid warehouses and distribution points, US officials said.

This is known as precision healthcare.\n\nAn increased understanding of human genetics, combined with the advances in biotechnology, diagnostics and data-driven technologies has led to this shift, enabling healthcare providers to better identify illnesses and develop more precise and effective treatments, with a stronger focus on risk prediction, prevention and pre-emptive measures.\n\nPrecision healthcare and the role of data in healthcare were among the key discussion topics at this year\u2019s inaugural Abu Dhabi Global Healthcare Week, an event where healthcare industry leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs and policymakers come together to collaborate, share ideas and strategise on the future of health.\n\nHow big data is helping tailor medical treatments\n\nOn the ground at Abu Dhabi Global Healthcare Week, it became clear that the road to individualised healthcare lies, somewhat paradoxically, in mass data gathering and sharing. \u201cReal-world data has enormous potential to shape healthcare,\u201d Alex Bedenkov, VP of Global Evidence for AstraZeneca\u2019s BioPharmaceuticals Medical, explained.\n\n\u201cTransitioning to the future of healthcare, we will be relying more and more on real world data and platforms, including population health platforms.\u201d\n\nAt AstraZeneca, precision medicine is applied across its portfolio, first in oncology and now in tackling complex chronic diseases, by identifying and testing specific gene products and biomarkers to uncover how they are linked to disease and to guide the development of tailored drugs.\n\nBeyond industry, national healthcare systems are also harnessing the power of data. Health data exchanges are widely in operation around the world, but no system is more robust than the UAE\u2019s Malaffi Health Information Exchange. A centralised database of unified patient records, Malaffi enables the efficient exchange of patient information between healthcare providers, improving healthcare delivery, equity and patient outcomes.\n\n\u201cThis type of platform will shape everything,\u201d Bedenkov said about Malaffi. \u201cStarting by automating patient care pathways, moving into population health, and, most importantly, using this data for the benefits of drug development.\u201d\n\nThe groundbreaking potential of genomic data\n\nAnd it\u2019s not just any data. Today, data-driven healthcare tools are being shaped by genetics and genomics data. As a prime example, we can look to the Emirati Genome Programme, the world\u2019s largest genome project, which uses cutting-edge DNA sequencing and artificial intelligence technologies to generate quality and comprehensive genomic data about Emiratis.\n\nIncorporated into the Malaffi exchange, this reference genome is now informing clinical decision-making with the aim of improving health outcomes at scale. This will be a significant leap towards precision medicine and safer healthcare, with progress continuing as scientists gain a more comprehensive understanding of what drives human health and illness at a genetic level.\n\nAshish Koshy, Chief Operating Officer of M42, understands this better than anyone. His organisation\u2019s deeptech product, Med42, is an open-access clinical Large Language Model (LLM) driven by generative AI and trained on data from the Emirati Genome Programme.\n\n\u201cIt is fundamental as a health tech company to have high-quality datasets to come up with insights that support personalised and precision medicine. Every individual's genomics is your baseline,\u201d he explained.\n\n\u201c[The Emirati Genome Programme] gives every citizen the ability to sequence their genes, which means that we can better understand the health risks of each and every individual. When they walk into a hospital, doctors can prescribe medicines based on their genomics, using the Malaffi portal.\u201d\n\nUnlocking the full value of our health data\n\nDespite promising national collaborations, exemplified by Malaffi and the Emirati Genome Programme, there is nothing quite like it on an international scale. Regulatory challenges as well as bureaucracy in the public and private sectors stall progress, but, if we truly want to impact global health, countries and companies across the globe need to come together. \u201cWorking off national datasets can\u2019t solve all our problems,\u201d Koshy said. \u201cBut imagine if we could get countries to securely share datasets to solve much bigger problems?\u201d\n\n\u201cTo see the true benefit of AI, the data should be large scale. We should collaborate, not just within Abu Dhabi, but also across different regions.\u201d\n\nThe aim of Abu Dhabi Global Healthcare Week is to enable this type of international, cross-sector collaboration. This year, AstraZeneca and M42 were joined by dozens of other international healthcare leaders at the inaugural event, including Raymond Fryrear II, M.D., Global Vice President, Scientific Affairs for Robotics and MedTech Digital, @Johnson&Johnson.\n\n\u201cThis conference is a very unique experience, with policymakers, providers and industry all under the same roof having these conversations,\u201d Fryrear said. \u201cTechnology and biology are important pieces of the puzzle, but the most important piece is people. And that's why connections and networks are so important.\u201d\n\nEmpowering patients with equitable access\n\nPrecision medicine doesn\u2019t always have to be new and complex. Dr Stephen Grobmyer, Institute Chair at the Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, explained how their state-of-the-art facilities combine with a patient-centred model of care.\n\n\u201cIn addition to the technology that's coming, [at the Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi] we tend to focus on the basics, which are exercise, weight management and family history. If we could get people to stop smoking, exercise three times a week and control their diet, then we would make a lot of progress in reducing diabetes, obesity and a lot of the diseases that are related to those habits.\u201d\n\nData sharing linked with AI technologies helps support this basic approach, putting power back into the hands of the individual. Widely accessible digital innovations such as health tracking using biometric data and \u2018in app\u2019 diagnostic results help democratise healthcare access.\n\nInnovations in this area were all present in Abu Dhabi for the event, including GluCare, a diabetic healthcare centre offering remote metabolic monitoring, and DietID, a digital dietary assessment tool. These digital apps aim to simplify the patient experience, allowing easy and fast enrollment to diagnostic testing and health management programmes that use evidence-based AI tools to give health advice at scale.\n\nAs well as alleviating the burden on healthcare systems, these precise digital tools promote health awareness and empower the populace to take ownership of their health, by incorporating genetic factors and lifestyle biometrics into their daily lives.\n\nData sharing vs data security\n\nDespite its potential to improve population health and facilitate research, many people still have concerns about the wide-scale sharing of health data, particularly when it comes to its use in artificial intelligence tools.\n\nWhile the potential of precision healthcare is vast, collaboration across borders and sectors is crucial to address regulatory challenges, ensure data security and democratise healthcare access.\n\n\u201cIt is not only an obstacle, but also an opportunity,\u201d Koshi said. \u201cWe need to work together collaboratively among all stakeholders, including governments and policymakers, to understand how to use this data properly, without harming patients and patient interests.\u201d\n\nWith new advancements pushing forth global healthcare every day, events such as Abu Dhabi Global Healthcare Week help build the path to success. Beyond genetics and data, this year\u2019s event showcased a wide range of new technologies and innovations, also holding forums with policymakers and business leaders to support future healthcare strategy and unlock the full potential of precision healthcare around the world.\n\n","htmlText":"<p>The one-size-fits-all approach to healthcare is becoming a thing of the past, shifting towards a more individualised model of care that takes into account a person\u2019s unique characteristics \u2013 their genes, environment and lifestyle.

countries and the European Union will be developing more artificial intelligence (AI) safety institutes to align research on machine learning standards and testing. \n\nThe international network was agreed during the AI Safety Summit in Seoul, South Korea during which world leaders met virtually. \n\nIt will bring together scientists from publicly-backed institutions, like the UK\u2019s AI Safety Institute to share information about AI models' risks, capabilities and limitations. \n\nThe group of institutions will also monitor \u201cspecific AI safety incidents\u201d when they occur. \n\n\u201cAI is a hugely exciting technology\u2026but to get the upside, we must ensure it\u2019s safe,\u201d UK prime minister Rishi Sunak said in a press release. \n\n\u201cThat\u2019s why I\u2019m delighted we have got an agreement today for a network of AI Safety Institutes\u201d. \n\nWhich countries are behind the new safety institutes? \n\nSignatories to this new AI Safety Institute network include the EU, France, Germany, Italy, the UK, the United States, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Australia and Canada. \n\nThe UK claims to have created the world\u2019s first AI Safety Institute last November with an initial investment of \u00a3100 million (\u20ac117.4 million). \n\nSince then, other countries like the United States, Japan and Singapore have launched their own. \n\nThe mission of the UK\u2019s AI Safety Institute is to \u201cminimise surprise to the UK and humanity from rapid and unexpected advances in AI,\u201d a November 2023 press release from the UK government reads. \n\nThe EU, now having passed the EU AI Act, is getting ready to launch its AI office. The European Commission previously told Euronews they would hire the new office\u2019s head once the law has been fully approved. \n\nUrsula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, said at last year\u2019s AI Safety Summit that the AI office would and should have a \u201cglobal vocation\u201d so that it could \u201ccooperate with similar entities around the world\u201d. \n\nLeaders also signed up to the wider Seoul Declaration during this conference which declares the importance of \u201cenhanced international cooperation\u201d to develop human-centric, trustworthy AI. \n\nThe first day of the AI Safety Summit this week saw 16 of the world\u2019s biggest tech companies, including Open AI, Mistral, Amazon, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Microsoft and IBM agree to a set of safety commitments. \n\nThe list includes setting thresholds for when the risks of AI become too high and being transparent about them.

Most casualties have been women and children.\u00a0 \n\nWhy is recognising the Palestinian state such a polarising issue? And who has recognised it so far, and under what circumstances? \n\nForeign mandate turns sour \n\nThe UN and its predecessor, the League of Nations, have been at the centre of the issue.\u00a0After the latter handed it over to Great Britain as a former Ottoman territory in 1922, Palestinians found their demands for an independent state repeatedly rejected by London, leading to an open rebellion in 1937. \n\nUnable to find a solution, the UK returned the territory \u2014 with all its predicaments \u2014 back to the UN a decade later, in 1947. \n\nThe UN settled on scrapping the British Mandate altogether and proposed to split the Palestinian lands into two states, one Palestinian and another Israeli. \n\nHowever, two wars \u2014 the 1948 Palestine war and the resulting Arab-Israel War \u2014 led to Israel controlling not only the territory earmarked by the UN for its homeland but also some two-thirds of the proposed Palestinian state, resulting in more than half of Palestinians fleeing or getting expelled. \n\nFurther hostilities in 1967 and 1973 saw Palestinian territories reduced even more.\u00a0 \n\nWhile the UN and its General Assembly acknowledged Palestinians' rights to sovereignty and independence, it wasn't until 1988 that the Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) officially declared the State of Palestine within the borders recognised by 78 countries. \n\nFor the territory including the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem, the recognition troubles were only beginning. \n\nDecades of conflict and peace accords \n\nWhile gaining recognition from communist and non-aligned countries, including the Soviet Union, China, India, Greece and Yugoslavia, major Western actors remained staunchly against Palestinian statehood. \n\nA US-led initiative of actively discouraging countries from recognising Palestine meant that little more was on the table aside from the Egypt-brokered 1977 Camp David Accords, granting Palestinians the right to self-govern in their territories. \n\nFor Washington at the time, recognition was a no-go matter.\u00a0 \n\nThe PLO's participation in the conflict in Lebanon, open acts of violence against Israeli civilians, and Arafat's friendly relations with Iraq's Saddam Hussein and the regime in Tehran alike all compounded the issue further. \n\nAn earlier pledge by former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger to stay away from recognising Palestine until the Yasser Arafat-led group gave up on its rejection of Israel's right to exist also hindered any diplomatic efforts that would involve softening Israel's stance on the matter. \n\nFurther violence in the 1980s by PLO factions and Israeli settlers' increasing ruthlessness towards Palestinians added fuel to the belief that peace in the Middle East was unattainable and that an independent Palestinian state would only make matters worse. \n\nThe US ended up designating PLO as a terrorist group in 1987, representing a major red flag for its allies that was extended to any debate over Palestine's recognition. \n\nAlthough numerous Arab League and developing countries in Asia and Africa pledged their support, by February 1989, only 94 countries officially recognised Palestine as an independent state. \n\nMeanwhile, the thawing of relations towards Arafat and the PLO and the US-led Oslo Accords in the 1990s gave hope that a two-state solution could finally see Palestine gain full sovereignty. \n\nYet, the assassination of Israeli PM Yitzhak Rabin in 1995 and the death of Arafat almost a decade later saw Israel toughening its stance once again and PLO's political authority on the wane alike. \n\nEuropean countries divided \n\nIn the following years, the number of states officially recognising Palestine grew slowly but steadily, but due to some countries' ambiguity on the issue, the total is often reported as being between 122 and 146. \n\nSome countries have established diplomatic relations with the Fatah-led Palestinian Authority, seen by many as the de facto government of the Palestinian state.\u00a0 \n\nHowever, today, the Palestinian Authority only has administrative control over the West Bank, with Hamas ruling in Gaza since the 2006 elections. \n\nAt the same time, the UN still only recognises the PLO as the representatives of the Palestine people. \n\nEU countries remain divided on the issue, and some have changed their position dramatically over the years. \n\nIreland, one of the leading countries in the renewed push to recognise Palestine today, was the first\u00a0EU member state to endorse its establishment in 1980. \n\nSweden recognised Palestinian statehood in 2014, but its officials have since walked back on the pledge, with former Foreign Minister\u00a0Tobias Billstr\u00f6m\u00a0calling it \"unfortunate and premature\" in 2022. \n\nRomania has maintained close diplomatic relations with the PLO and was one of the first countries to recognise the Palestinian Authority in 1988.\u00a0 \n\nHungary also recognised Palestine as a sovereign state in the same year, while both European countries were still part of the Soviet bloc. \n\nMeanwhile, Budapest was one of just nine countries voting against Palestine's UN membership earlier this month, and many consider the central European country to be one of Israel's closest allies in Europe. \n\n","htmlText":"<p>All eyes are again on

Palestine as an independent state.<\/p>\n<div\n data-stories-id=\"8428670,8428076\"\n data-event=\"widget_related\"\n class=\"widget widget--type-related widget--size-fullwidth

Oslo Accords in the 1990s gave hope that a two-state solution could finally see Palestine gain full sovereignty.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, the assassination of Israeli PM Yitzhak Rabin in 1995 and the death of

countries in the renewed push to recognise Palestine today, was the first\u00a0EU member state to endorse its establishment in 1980.<\/p>\n<p>Sweden recognised Palestinian statehood in 2014, but its officials have since walked back on the pledge, with former Foreign Minister\u00a0Tobias Billstr\u00f6m\u00a0calling it \"unfortunate and premature\" in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Romania has maintained close diplomatic relations with the PLO and was one of the first countries to recognise the Palestinian Authority in 1988.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Hungary also recognised Palestine as a sovereign state in the same year, while both European countries were still part of the Soviet bloc.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Budapest was one of just nine countries voting against Palestine's UN membership earlier this month, and

symbolic move was coordinated between the three nations on Wednesday, following months of negotiations between a group of European countries willing to take the step. \n\nSpeaking on Wednesday morning, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro S\u00e1nchez\u00a0\u2014 who had vowed to recognise Palestine by June\u00a0\u2014 announced Spain would recognise the State of Palestine next Tuesday, 28 May.\u00a0 \n\n\"The time to move from words to action has come,\"\u00a0S\u00e1nchez told the Spanish House of Representatives. \"To tell the millions of Palestinians that are suffering that we stand with them, that there's hope, and that despite the walls that are erected, the villages that are bombed and the illegal settlements that are built, the land and the identity of the Palestinians still exist.\" \n\nS\u00e1nchez and his Irish counterpart, Taoiseach Simon Harris, have been at the forefront of efforts to build a coalition of like-minded EU member states on the Palestinian question.\u00a0 \n\n\"This is a historic and important day for Ireland and for Palestine,\" said Harris in Dublin on Wednesday morning.\u00a0 \n\nIrish foreign minister Miche\u00e1l Martin announced on social media platform X that Dublin's recognition would be official from 28 May as the country moves in tandem with Spain.\u00a0 \n\nNorwegian prime minister Jonas Gahr Stoere also announced his country will formally recognise Palestine as a state earlier on Wednesday.\u00a0\"There can't be peace without a Palestinian state,\"\u00a0Stoere told reporters in Oslo. \n\nAccording to Euronews sources, Norway is likely to mimic both Spain and Ireland in making the official recognition effective from 28 May. \n\nThree other EU members likely to follow suit shortly \n\nEuropean Union member states Slovenia and Malta have also indicated in recent weeks that they may recognise Palestinian statehood, claiming it is vital to bring peace to the region.\u00a0 \n\nIn March, both EU member states signed a joint declaration \u00a0saying they stand ready to recognise Palestine with their Spanish and Irish counterparts on the margins of a summit in Brussels. \n\nSlovenia's government approved a decree on 9 May that allows it to recognise the Palestinian state, and Prime Minister Robert Golob indicated that Ljubljana could formalise the move next month. \n\nBelgium is also likely to follow suit soon, but refrained from signing the March declaration of intent as it currently holds the six-month rotating Presidency of the Council of the EU, responsible for overseeing its work and therefore likely restricted from signing such declarations. \n\nBelgium's Deputy Prime Minister\u00a0Vincent Van Peteghem said on Wednesday that Belgium \"must also\" recognise the state of Palestine. \n\n\"A lasting peace solution only has a chance when both parties at the negotiating table have the same status, and the peoples are recognized in their equal rights and freedoms,\" Van Peteghem said on X . \n\n'Terrorism pays' \n\nThe move is opposed by Israel, which has claimed it will \"fuel instability\" in the Middle East. Israel Katz, the country's foreign affairs minister, has recalled Israel's ambassadors to Ireland and Norway for consultations and has warned Spain that similar steps will be taken. \n\n\"I\u2019m sending a clear and unequivocal message to Ireland and Norway: Israel will not remain silent in the face of those undermining its sovereignty and endangering its security,\" he wrote in a statement shared on X. \n\n\"Today\u2019s decision sends a message to the Palestinians and the world: Terrorism pays,\" he also wrote, adding: \"Israel will not remain silent - there will be further severe consequences.\" \n\nIt comes against a backdrop of continued protests in support of the Palestinians in Gaza and mounting global condemnation of Israel's harsh military offensive.\u00a0 \n\nThe International Criminal Court (ICC) on Monday said it was seeking arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, as well as several Hamas leaders, for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity.\u00a0 \n\nNetanyahu and Israel's principal ally, the US, slammed the ICC move, with President Joe Biden calling it \"outrageous\".\u00a0 \n\nPalestinian statehood has been recognised by 139 out of 193 United Nations (UN) member states to date.\u00a0 \n\nFirst proposed by the UN in 1947, the two-state solution envisions creating two separate nations: one for Jews (Israel) and one for Palestinians (Palestine). It would involve dividing the land, with each state having its own government. The goal is to allow both sides to live side by side peacefully and independently. \n\nIsrael's war in Gaza has killed more than 35,500 people \u2014 mostly women and children\u00a0\u2014 according to Palestinian authorities.\u00a0 \n\nThe fighting began on 7 October after Hamas' surprise raid in southern Israel, which killed 1,200 people, again mostly civilians.\u00a0 \n\nAround 125 hostages seized during the attack are still held by the militant Palestinian group. \n\nEurope deeply split on Palestinian statehood \n\nThe move puts the EU\u2019s highly divided stance on the war in Gaza and the Palestinians\u2019 protracted fight for statehood into sharp focus. \n\nNine of the EU\u2019s 27 member states currently recognise Palestinians' right to a state according to the so-called 1967 borders, which include the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem. \n\nThey include eastern states such as Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania, and Slovakia, as well as the island states of Cyprus and Malta.\u00a0 \n\nThey also include Sweden, which became the first member state to unilaterally recognise Palestinians' right to statehood while a member of the EU in 2014. \n\nBut many of these countries made this recognition in 1988 and have since shifted their positions towards a staunch pro-Israeli stance, most notably Hungary and the Czech Republic. \n\nHungary\u2019s Viktor Orb\u00e1n and the Czech Republic\u2019s Petr Fiala were among the first to censure the International Criminal Court\u2019s decision to seek an arrest warrant for Netanyahu and Gallant. \n\nHungary has also wielded its veto power to delay critical EU decisions in response to the conflict in Gaza, including sanctions on violent Israeli settlers and a joint appeal to Israel not to launch a full-scale operation on the town of Rafah. \n\nBoth Hungary and the Czech Republic were the only EU member states to vote against a UN General Assembly resolution\u00a0to give \u201cfavourable consideration\u201d to Palestine\u2019s application for full UN membership on 10 May. \n\n","htmlText":"<p>Three European states\u00a0\u2014 Spain, Ireland and Norway\u00a0\u2014 have

The summit is a follow-up to last year's AI safety summit in Bletchley Park in the UK. \n\n'World-first agreement' by Big Tech \n\nFrance will host the next in-person summit on the topic. \n\nThe previous November gathering ended with a declaration signed by nearly 30 countries stating they would ensure AI is \"human-centric, trustworthy and responsible\". \n\nThe current online summit, hosted jointly by the UK and South Korea, is expected to result in further agreements from world leaders. \n\n\"It\u2019s a world first to have so many leading AI companies from so many different parts of the globe all agreeing to the same commitments on AI safety,\" UK prime minister Rishi Sunak said in a statement after the agreement was signed. \n\nSunak will co-chair a virtual meeting with world leaders on Tuesday with Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol.

Court's (ICC) chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, said there were reasonable grounds to believe that Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli defence minister Yoav Gallant were responsible for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. \n\n\"This is exactly what the new antisemitism looks like, it has moved from the campuses in the West to the court in The Hague. What a shame,\" Israel's leader said in a television address. \n\nThe ICC is also looking into issuing arrest warrants for three senior Hamas figures, including the group\u2019s leader in Gaza Yehya Sinwar on similar charges,\u00a0 \n\nThe comparison between Netanyahu and the senior Hamas figures has enraged the Israeli leader who commented,\u00a0\"With what audacity do you dare compare the monsters of Hamas to the soldiers of the IDF, the most moral army in the world?\" \n\nIn a written statement, US president Joe Biden also called the decision outrageous and said there was \"no equivalence\" between Israel and Hamas. \n\nMixed reactions to ICC decision in Tel Aviv \n\nThere was a mixed reaction to the news on the streets of Tel Aviv, the city that has seen weeks of mass anti-government protests.\u00a0 \n\nProtesters are demanding that Netanyahu's administration does more to secure the release of the hostages still being held by Hamas in Gaza. \n\n\"I want the hostages to return alive, as soon as possible. If this arrest warrant, or an arrest that will follow it, will expedite it, I am in favour of it,\" said Israeli citizen Gal Sne. \n\nBut other protesters criticised the move.\u00a0\u00a0 \n\n\"I don\u2019t understand in what world we are living in where there is symmetry between leaders of a terror organisation who committed mass slaughter to heads of state who were elected in a democratic way,\" said Inbar Goldstein. \n\nThere was a muted response to the ICC announcement among Palestinians in central Gaza. \n\n\"We want international resolutions that are decisive. Decisive so that they solve matters and problems. We are the victims although we have nothing to do with Israel or Hamas. What is my guilt or my children's guilt? This is not fair, for God's sake,\" said Sami Abu Zeid. \n\nIsraeli forces kill at least 7 in the West Bank \n\nIsraeli forces raided a militant stronghold in the occupied West Bank on Tuesday, killing at least seven Palestinians - including a doctor - according to local authorities. \n\nThe IDF said its forces struck militants during an operation which took place in the Jenin refugee camp adjacent to the city of Jenin in the northern West Bank.\u00a0 \n\nThe Palestinian Health Ministry said at least seven people were killed and another nine wounded. Their identities were not immediately known.\u00a0 \n\nNearly 500 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank, since the start of the Israel Hamas war on 7 October.\u00a0 \n\nJewish settlers have orchestrated attacks against Palestinians in recent months, with some filmed gunning down civilians. There has been violence from the Palestinian side too.\u00a0 \n\nPalestinians accuse Israel of claiming the land as their own, which they see as part of their future independent state.
