Meteorite Older Than Earth Crashes Into Home in Georgia

Rana Atef A meteorite estimated to be 4.56 billion years old, older than Earth itself, crashed into the roof of a home in McDonough, Georgia, on June 26, missing the resident by just 14 feet. The space rock, part of a meteor seen blazing across southern US skies that day, punched through the roof, ductwork, and ceiling before denting the laminate floor. Scott Harris, a planetary geologist at the University of Georgia, analyzed 23 grams of fragments from the object, which likely originated in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Harris said the impact created a sound and vibration similar to a close-range gunshot. The homeowner, who escaped unharmed, is still finding specks of space dust in his living room. The 'McDonough Meteorite' is the 27th recovered in Georgia and the closest call for a human since 1954, when a meteorite struck a woman in Alabama. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid Videos & Features Story behind Trending Jessica Radcliffe Death Video News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani

Gaza journalist killings part of Israel's ‘media genocide': Egypt Journalists Syndicate - Foreign Affairs

The Egyptian Journalists Syndicate has condemned what it called a 'heinous crime' by Israeli forces in the killing of six Palestinian journalists near Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza, describing it as part of a wider 'media genocide' targeting reporters in the enclave. The targeted Israeli airstrike killed Al Jazeera correspondents Anas al-Sharif and Mohamed Qureiqa, photojournalists Ibrahim Zaher, Mohammed Noufal, and Moamen Aliwa, freelance reporter Mohamed Khalidi, and al-Sharif's 19-year-old nephew, Mosaab al-Sharif, according to officials at Al-Shifa Hospital. In a Monday statement, the syndicate said it "mourns the six colleagues, and also mourns the global conscience, which is being buried day after day along with the witnesses of truth and the martyrs of genocide and systematic starvation inflicted by the Zionist war machine on the people of Gaza." It said the killings—acknowledged by the Israeli military—formed part of a systematic campaign against Gaza's press. The Israeli army has deliberately killed over 230 journalists and media workers since the war began, it noted, surpassing the combined death toll of reporters in the Vietnam and Iraq wars and marking the deadliest conflict for the profession since World War II. The syndicate said the Israeli army had wounded hundreds more journalists, detained dozens without charge, and destroyed the homes of many, leaving them displaced. It accused Israel of seeking to silence coverage by targeting reporters' families and destroying their homes, while weaponizing starvation as 'a tool of genocide.' It also accused the United States of providing direct military and political support to Israel and denounced what it called 'shameful international complicity' and 'unprecedented Arab weakness.' The statement urged urgent international action to halt the 'ongoing crime' and bring those responsible to trial, warning that failure to act would make expressions of solidarity 'a form of complicity' in genocide. 'This is not the journalists' battle alone,' it said. 'It is a human battle against a killing machine that will not even allow the victims to tell their own story—one that must end the era of impunity before Gaza and the world's conscience are buried together.'

New Zealand Considers Recognition of Palestinian State

Israa Farhan New Zealand is considering formal recognition of a Palestinian state, with a decision expected in September, according to Foreign Minister Winston Peters. The government of Prime Minister Christopher Luxon is set to outline its position during the United Nations Leaders' Week in September. This move comes as several nations, including Australia, the United Kingdom, and Canada, have recently announced their intention to recognize a Palestinian state during the upcoming UN General Assembly session. Peters emphasized that while some of New Zealand's closest partners have already chosen to proceed with recognition, the country maintains an independent foreign policy. He noted that any decision will be grounded in New Zealand's principles, values, and national interests. The government will assess whether sufficient progress has been made towards establishing a viable and legitimate Palestinian state before granting official recognition. Peters affirmed that New Zealand's support for Palestinian statehood has long been clear, with the only question being one of timing. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid Videos & Features Story behind Trending Jessica Radcliffe Death Video News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani
