BCP council 'fence-sitting' over Israeli town twinning
A local authority was "fence-sitting" over a motion to de-twin a Dorset town from its Israeli counterpart, a councillor has party councillors Joe and Kate Salmon brought the motion after more than 2,500 residents signed a petition calling for the 30-year relationship between Bournemouth and Netanya to end over Israel's actions in Gaza. In a full Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council (BCP) meeting on 22 July, members instead voted for an amendment to the motion which said it would "take no view" of the twinning arrangement. Mr Salmon said the council "has a responsibility" to make a decision. He said the council meeting had been a "masterclass in fence-sitting by Liberal Democrat, Conservative and Labour councillors"."We will keep pressing until they stop ignoring residents on this difficult but important debate," he Martin, cabinet member for customer, communications and culture at BCP said: "The twinning arrangement between Bournemouth and Netanya has been in place for more than 30 years and continues to reflect a commitment to civic friendship and cultural exchange."The motion, which was first put forward last year, was delayed while the council sought legal advice on which constitution should make the sought to suspend all support for the twinning arrangement, remove road signs and cease civic support until circumstances could be reviewed following the war in Gaza. Bournemouth has been twinned with Netanya since 1995 but since the war in Gaza began, road signage of the twinning in Bournemouth has been taken down by unknown people on multiple occasions. The Israeli military launched a campaign in Gaza in response to the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on 7 October 2023, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken least 59,029 people have been killed in Gaza since then, according to the territory's health ministry. In response to Mr and Mrs Salmons' motion, the amendment that members voted in favour of stated: "It is not the role of the council to support nor condemn matters occurring in the region."Mr Martin said: "Following a full and respectful debate, BCP councillors have resolved to take no view on the appropriateness of the twinning arrangement and neither wish to promote twinning nor to criticise it."The amendment also said while the council would not remove existing signage it would not fund replacing signage that had been removed. Mr Salmon said it was an "open invitation for vandalism"."Both supporters and opponents of the twinning wanted the council to show decisive leadership," he said, adding: "BCP council failed to deliver."The council has a responsibility to make a decision - do we publicly align ourselves with a municipality in a state currently facing credible genocide allegations or do we withdraw our civic endorsements."

Theranica to Present Three Real-World Evidence Studies at AHS Scientific Meeting Highlighting the Impact of the Nerivio® REN Wearable on Migraine Treatment
New studies confirm the clear benefit of early acute treatment, the consistent effectiveness of REN over years, and its clinical benefits in migraine both with and without aura BRIDGEWATER, N.J. and NETANYA, Israel, June 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Theranica, a pioneer in drug-free neuromodulation treatments for idiopathic pain conditions, today announced the presentation of three new real-world studies at the 2025 American Headache Society (AHS) 67th Annual Scientific Meeting, held in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The posters highlight the safety, efficacy, and versatility of the company's prescribed, FDA-cleared Nerivio® REN wearable, the first-and-only remote electrical neuromodulation (REN) therapy indicated for both acute and preventive treatment of migraine in people aged 8 and older. Among the highlights is a long-term study demonstrating that the REN wearable maintains consistent efficacy for migraine treatment over three years of use, with no signs of tachyphylaxis or 'treatment fatigue.' Throughout the study period, patients experienced consistent Pain Relief, Functional Recovery (see Figure), and freedom from migraine-associated symptoms such as photophobia, phonophobia, and nausea/vomiting.'These findings speak to a critical need in migraine treatment: durability with continued use,' said Stephanie J. Nahas, MD, MSEd, FAHS, FAAN, Assistant Director, Headache Medicine Fellowship Program, Jefferson Headache Center and Professor, Department of Neurology, Thomas Jefferson University. 'Migraine disease is complex and non-curable, yet too often patients struggle to find safe, well-tolerated treatments with sustained efficacy over time, something that is necessary to mitigate chronification and maintain quality of life. Seeing ongoing patient adherence with consistent results over a three-year span, without the risk of treatment fatigue, rebound symptoms, or gradually degraded response confirms the REN wearable as a sustainable, non-drug option for the long-term management of a complex condition such as migraine.' Another poster compares REN's impact in treating migraine with and without aura (MWA and MWoA) in nearly 32,000 patients. Despite having more severe baseline symptoms, patients with aura experienced treatment outcomes that were comparable, and in some measures slightly better than in patients without aura. Pain Relief, Functional Recovery, and freedom from migraine-associated symptoms were evident in both groups, reinforcing the REN wearable's reliable performance across these two major migraine subtypes. 'These studies represent some of the most comprehensive real-world analyses to date on the use of REN in migraine treatment. Together, they demonstrate that REN is not only effective when used early for acute treatment—but also durable over time and beneficial across different migraine subtypes,' said Alit Stark-Inbar, Ph.D., VP Medical Information and Research at Theranica. 'Presenting these data at AHS is an excellent vehicle to share clinically meaningful insights with the professional headache community, and to further support physicians in making evidenced-based decisions when taking care of their patients, being well educated about their treatment options'. These recent clinical data reinforce the REN wearable's unique position as a non-drug treatment of migraine, clinically proven to work both acutely and preventively. For patients facing intolerability or lack of efficacy with medications, or seeking non-pharmacological alternatives, Nerivio delivers safe, effective, and non-disruptive relief, without compromising outcomes. As an active participant in this year's AHS 67th Annual Scientific Meeting, held at the Minneapolis Convention Center from June 18 to 22, Theranica reaffirms its commitment to scientific exchange, clinical innovation, and engagement with the broader headache community. AHS remains a cornerstone in advancing migraine intervention and education, and Theranica is proud to contribute meaningful data that help shape the future of the field. Attendees are invited to visit Theranica at booth #501 to learn more.
