Federico Susbielles, mayor of Bahia Blanca, confirmed the death toll in a post on X. The city is near the southern tip of Buenos Aires province, one of Argentina's top grain-producing regions. The storm is approaching many other cities, including Buenos Aires.

German officials said Thursday they arrested four alleged members of Hamas who were suspected of plotting to carry out acts of terror against Jewish people and Jewish institutions in Europe. The announcement came as Danish officials announced the arrests of three people in coordinated actions across Denmark, and another detained in the Netherlands. They were arrested on suspicion of plotting to carry out “an act of terror,” but authorities did not specify if it was connected to the German arrests. In Germany, law enforcement agents executed search warrants against three individuals, two of whom were arrested in Berlin and another by Dutch police in Rotterdam. A fourth individual was placed under “provisional arrest” and will appear Friday before a judge, who will decide whether to issue a formal arrest warrant, the press release said. The four individuals “have been longstanding members of Hamas and have participated in Hamas operations abroad,” the German government alleged in a press release, referring to the terrorist organization, Hamas, which governs Gaza. The militant group also carried out attacks resulting in the deaths of 1,200 Israelis on Oct. 7. German officials alleged that, by the spring of 2023, after receiving orders from Hamas leaders in Lebanon, one of the suspects began searching for an underground weapons cache in Europe that Hamas had created in the past “in a conspiratorial manner.” “The weapons were due to be taken to Berlin and kept in a state of readiness in view of potential terrorist attacks against Jewish institutions in Europe,” the officials alleged, adding that the others repeatedly traveled from Berlin to look for the weapons. The individual placed on “provisional arrest” was “providing assistance.” In Denmark, officials acknowledged their arrests had “threads abroad” and were “related to criminal gangs,” singling out the predominantly immigrant gang Loyal to Familia, The Associated Press reported. Flemming Drejer, operative head of Denmark’s Security and Intelligence Service, said Danish police had “a special focus” on Jewish institutions in their investigation. https://thehill.com/policy/international/4361116-germany-says-foiled-alleged-hamas-plot/ -

news Stanford twin research indicates that a vegan diet improves cardiovascular health
GraceRandolph posted a topic in Civics
In a study with 22 pairs of identical twins, Stanford Medicine researchers and their colleagues have found that a vegan diet improves cardiovascular health in as little as eight weeks. Although it’s well-known that eating less meat improves cardiovascular health, diet studies are often hampered by factors such as genetic differences, upbringing and lifestyle choices. By studying identical twins, however, the researchers were able to control for genetics and limit the other factors, as the twins grew up in the same households and reported similar lifestyles. “Not only did this study provide a groundbreaking way to assert that a vegan diet is healthier than the conventional omnivore diet, but the twins were also a riot to work with,” said Christopher Gardner, PhD, the Rehnborg Farquhar Professor and a professor of medicine. “They dressed the same, they talked the same and they had a banter between them that you could have only if you spent an inordinate amount of time together.” The study published Nov. 30 in JAMA Network Open. Gardner is the senior author. The study was co-first authored by Matthew Landry, PhD, a former Stanford Prevention Research Center postdoctoral scholar, now at the University of California, Irvine, and Catherine Ward, PhD, a post-doctoral scholar at the center.
