Al Jazeera Media Network condemns the spyware attacks targeting a number of its staff, as documented in a Citizen Lab report released today. Al Jazeera worked voluntarily with Citizen Lab's researchers, and, as the report notes, that cooperation helped verify and publicly document these attacks. The Network has taken, and continues to take, appropriate steps to protect its staff and systems.
The targeting of journalists is an attack on press freedom and on the public's right to know. Those responsible must be held accountable.

President Masoud Pezeshkian used his visit to India for the Brics summit this month to transport several tonnes of pharmaceutical ingredients back to Iran on his private plane.
“In the past, shortages were mainly limited to biological medicines or medications for difficult-to-treat diseases,” said a pharmacist in Tehran who did not wish to be named. “Now, even basic painkillers and very common psychiatric medications are unavailable.”
… One retired nurse, who was waiting for her turn at a pharmacy in Tehran, said she had to visit several outlets across the city on different days in order to find her husband’s chemotherapy medication.
“One time the drug was unavailable at government pharmacies, and we were forced to buy it on the open market at three times the regular price,” she said.

Al Mukha (Mocha) is where cafe mocha (or mocca, mochacino..etc) got its name.
For about 200 years, and starting in the mid 1400's: Port Mocha was the world's primary global hub for exporting coffee.
Yemeni beans were known to be rich, dark and almost tasted like chocolate.
Baristas later just added chocolate to coffee to make the mochachino.
BREAKING: The Houthis have seized control of the crucial Red Sea city of Mocha and are closing in on the strategic Bab el-Mandeb Strait, Reuters reports citing three unnamed Yemen government sources.

What an insane, blatantly racist headline. Unreal.
As the nation prepares to mark 25 years since Sept. 11, 2001, Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Michigan, may be facing the risk of renewed scrutiny and fresh political attack. cbsn.ws/4ycfaWy

Former Afghan President Hamid Karzai says he won't send his daughter to school abroad to escape Taliban restrictions.
He tells @MishalHusain what life is like for him under the new regime.
Listen at bit.ly/4fwjedT or watch The Mishal Husain Show at bloomberg.com/videos
Really worth a listen - brilliant interview by @MishalHusain with former Afghan President @KarzaiH
Karzai: “This is our home, this country, and you don't leave your home when things go difficult. You stay on and get it corrected."
Karzai tells me he won’t send his children overseas, even though the daughters who were with him in a 2021 video will one by one be banned from going to school - it’s already happened to the eldest
