thousands and thousands of Chinese studying at universities

by

According to a group of researchers from the Paulson Institute in Chicago (USA) 38% of experts in artificial intelligence (AI) that develop their professional career in the US It has formed at Chinese universities. In fact, this American institution has concluded that In the US there are more Chinese experts in AI than professionals with a strictly American origin. This, According to Nikkei Asiasome experts in the industry concern due to the possibility that China decides to repatriate their students and researchers from the US to reinforce their AI industry. Some of the best centers dedicated to the science and technology on the planet are in China. The Tsinghua University of Beijing, the Jiao Tong University of Shanghai, the Zhejiang University of Hangzhou, the University of Science and Technology of Hefei or the University of Technology of South China, in Canton, are just a few. All of them have something important in common: they are world reference centers in technology, innovation and applied science. And many of his students are working in the US. At the current situation It is understandable that some American experts are concerned about the possibility of losing these qualified personnel. China wants to “build a strong educational nation” The Chinese education system works. The Government led by Xi Jinping is very aware that the country’s competitiveness In full struggle with the US For world supremacy depends largely on its scientific capacity. If we stick to the development of AI, which is undoubtedly the pitch in which these two superpowers are playing their best cards, it is evident that China advances at an amazing speed. The success of Deepseek supports both the proper functioning of the Chinese education system and the high competitiveness that this country has achieved despite US sanctions and his allies. High-Flyer, the Deepseek matrix, consists of Chinese researchers trained in the best universities in the country In fact, High-Flyer, the Deepseek parent company, is essentially constituted by Chinese researchers who have formed in the best universities in the country. Many of them come from the institutions that I have mentioned a few lines above. The government knows that this asset cannot waste, which in January led him to implement A National Action Plan that pursues “build a strong educational nation.” In addition, this strategy must be consolidated in just a decade. In 2035. Nothing is bad as a purpose. However, this is not all. Several Chinese elite universities They have announced His intention to expand his curricula with the objective of prioritizing the strategic needs of the country. AI is one of them. As we have seen, China already has a lot of scientific talent, and presumably in the medium term it will have more. Maybe much more. And, curiously, Depseek has something to say in this strategy. In fact, some university centers are already using this AI to teach training courses expressly dedicated to this discipline, although this plan does not only affect university students; Primary and secondary schools will also begin to train their students in AI.

thousands of robots with a cat’s face

by

Japan is turning its services with thousands of cat -looking robots that transport dishes and glasses in more than 2,000 restaurants. It is not something that we have not seen in certain Spanish restaurants, but In Japan it is being much more accentuated in capillarity and capabilities of these robots. It is a country’s response to a perfect demographic storm: its population is aged and is getting more and more, and has a serious shortage of labor. Why is it important. These robots do not replace humans completely, but work together with them, allowing older or foreign people – immigration is key to covering work scarcity – can do work that would otherwise be too demanding at physical or linguistic level. Skylark Holdings, the largest restaurant chain with Japan table service, has deployed about 3,000 robots-gate Equipped with 3D sensors, dozens of facial expressions and ability to transport heavy dishes. In figures. The service robot market in Japan will triple its value in the next five yearsreaching 400,000 million yen (2.7 billion dollars) in 2030. worldwide, the sector already moves 17.2 billion dollars annually. Japan has the lowest unemployment rate among OECD countries, 2.4%. By 2040 it will have a deficit of eleven million workers. Almost 40% of the Japanese population will be 65 years or older in 2065. In the hospitality sector, there are three vacancies for each job applicant. Between the lines. The robotic solution responds to a government strategy. The Japanese government is actively promoting the hiring of foreign workers and encouraging companies to retain employees over 65 years of age through subsidies. Skylark This transformation illustrates well: it uses more than 4,000 workers over 65 years (almost double that in 2020) and has increased its percentage of part -time part -time personnel up to 3.3% (compared to 2.6% in 2020). Yasuko Tagawa, 71, works twenty hours a week at a taste in Tokyo. “My work is no problem when I work with robots,” he explains while cleaning tables. Approximately half of their tasks are now performed with machine assistance. “At my age it becomes more difficult to move,” he acknowledges Bloomberg. Beyond the hospitality. The robotic revolution is not limited to restaurants. The careful care sector, which provides for a deficit of 570,000 caregivers by 2040, is quickly adopting these technologies. In the residence Flos Higashi-Kojiya de Tokyo, caregivers have been using automated devices for years To lift residents, monitor the behavior of people with dementia and facilitate communication. Sensors under mattresses record sleep, heart rate and breathing, showing real -time data that allow staff to supervise forty residents of a look. Yes, but. Despite their potential, service robots have limitations and initial investment can be prohibitive for some companies. They cannot completely replace human judgment or essential interpersonal skills in many works in the services sector. However, for Yasuko Tagawa, the future with his companions Robot-Gato is promising: “Perhaps they can also help in the kitchen,” he says while caressing one of the robots. “Thank you for your work. I will tell you.” In Xataka | Amira is the most disturbing MWC: an ultra -rear robot with synthetic skin that reacts to us Outstanding image | Gankilyuu

For thousands of years, Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens tried to mate insistently. Genetics had another idea

by

In 1856, while they worked in A limestone quarry Near Düsseldorf, two Italian workers found a basin full of bones. They thought they were the remains of a bear and approached a teacher of a nearby city, known for being a bone collector. They had no idea what they were about to provoke. The antecedent. When he saw the bones, Johann C. Fuhlrott He realized that they were not from a bear, he took the bones to the University of Bonn and, next to Hermann Schaaffhausethey communicated the finding to the world. No one took them very seriously. It was said that it was a Russian cosaco with rickets that persecuted Napoleon for Europe. Until almost a decade later, the Irish geologist William King He reached a revolutionary conclusion: we had not always been alone. But why are we now? With the discovery of Homo Neanderthalensis They opened many unknownsbut there is one that has been chasing us for almost 200 years: why did they disappear? How is it possible that such an old, so robust species, that had survived so many things disappeared without more? Why were we left alone? To all these years, scientists have given numerous hypotheses and theories. From Prehistoric genocides to A slow and agonized eclipse. However, Ludovic Slimak, researcher at the Center for Anthropobiology and Genomic of Touluse and one of the greatest international experts in Neanderthals, You have another idea. The forms of love (and what is not love). For Slimak, if we apply the knowledge of cultural anthropology to what Paleogenetics is telling us, the image is quite different. And, as in all traditional societies in which strong identities coexist, it looks like the different human communities exchanged women. From our perspective, mere expression is already a savage. But from the perspective of anthropology, those “family crossing” processes were basic to ensure stable alliances between different communities. And that, if we take into account that we are loads of DNA Neanderthal, it seems to be what happened. However, As Slimak points outthat “fusion” of lineages never came to occur. The question is why. A story (genetically) impossible. We know that Neanderthals and Sapiens crossed and They had offspring. But we also know that a significant part of it were sterile people unable to reproduce. That is, although the communities tried to lock these relationships and alliances based on miscegenation, the thing did not work. Searching. It’s curious, Slimak said in An interview for Livesciencethat “when you are looking for old DNA (40,000 to 45,000 years ago) all these sapiens early have recent DNA, and That is why we have (DNA Neanderthal) today. But when you arrive and try to extract DNA from the last Neanderthals, contemporaries of these first sapienslet’s say between 40,000 and 50,000 years ago there is not a single Neanderthal with DNA sapiens“ Curious and very possibly one of the keys that explain because the most numerically and genetically diverse population of Sapiens won the departure to the Neanderthals. That is, why we were alone.

The oceans of the Earth were green for thousands of years. More and more scientists believe they will be again

by

On February 14, 1990, 6,000 million kilometers from Earth, the Voyager 1 He took a photo. There, sustained in space by the mysterious forces of. Space-time, our planet is nothing more than a light blue motor between the sunlight reflected by the camera. Four years later, Carl Sagan baptized that photo as “that pale blue point.” What we just discovered is that it was not always the case. 3,000 million years ago, that point would have been green. Wasn’t it blue? Actually, according to Taro Matsuo and his team from the University of Nagoya in Japan explain in Japanduring most of the history of the earth its surface would not have been blue. For about 3,000 million years and until 600 million years ago (just when complex life begins on the planet) the predominant color seems to have been green. (No) take iron from the matter … The first is that, at that time, the indications tell us that the oceans were full of iron hydroxide. This inorganic compound absorbs blue light. In addition, naturally, water absorbs red light. That means that taking into account that chemical composition, the only free light was the green color. The other reason is the cyanobacteria. It’s about One of the first photosynthetic beings of history and not only used chlorophyll to absorb sunlight, but used fuses to absorb red and green light. The sum of these two things caused the seas to have a characteristic green color. And they had it for billions of years. It is true that it was not a pure green color. After all, blue is “a consequence of dispersion Rayleight of sunlight in the atmosphere. “So the color would tend to blue, but without a doubt it would be something much greener than current. What is the use of all this research? First, to understand that when The MIT explained in 2019that the sea will return green in the mid -century, we are talking about something very plausible. It is not just that A follow -up study In 2023 he confirmed that more than half of the land surface had gained greenery in recent years. It is that, for a long time, it was so. On the other hand, it allows us to answer one of the great questions of astrobiology: “Does only the blue tone of a planet serve as an indicator of its potential to house life?“And the answer, of course, is no: not a ‘non -radical’ is true; but one that reminds us that there are more things out there that can still dream our biology.

Every day thousands of people make fun without knowing about an empire when they have breakfast. THE RESPONSIBLE: THE COUPASAN

by

If something has demonstrated over the centuries, gastronomy is that kitchens serve more than elaborate tasty dishes. In the heat of their stoves they usually curdle culinary traditions, legends and mythslike the one that explains that every time we have breakfast a crucisan we are actually participating in a war. Because? Because with that seemingly innocent gesture we make fun of the defeat of one of the empires more influential of history. We explain ourselves. Cruasanos and wars? Yes. The relationship may sound a bit strange, but it comes with Google to find dozens of Blogsforums, magazines and Diaries that tell the same story: how the cross was created to commemorate the defeat of the Ottoman in Vienna at the end of the 17th century. To be more precise, the frustrated siege of the city by the great vizier Kara Mustafa which resulted in Kahlenberg battle and marked the beginning of the Ottoman decline in Europe. A great victory, a great cake to celebrate it. An epic story. There are war deeds that inspire poems, songs, operas, movies, paintings, novels; But … a cake? Why commemorate the siege of a city with a bun that thousands of people have breakfast throughout the world? The answer is quite simple: The legend He says that the Viennese pastries played a key role in the Ottoman defeat of 1683, so the guild wanted to celebrate it as best knew, kneading and baking mass. Of plots and noctámbulos. The story is of course worthy of the great romantic chronicles. Desperate to take Vienna, around 1683 the Ottomans began to think about ways to mock the fortification of the city. Some versions They say they decided to do so by excavating an underground gallery. Others, which set out to open tunnels to Place mines. In any case, the legend tells that, to dodge the vigilance of the Viennese, the Ottomans worked at night, among Quinqués and the moonlight, while their enemies slept. What the Muslims did not tell is that not all the residents of Vienna got into bed at night. There was a guild who worked every day from the sunset to dawn and ended up listening to the noise that the soldiers made with their peaks and shovels, which allowed him to alert the authorities and repel the enemy attack. What noctámbulos guild was that? Correct: The bakers. And the ‘Larousse’ of 1938 arrived. That this romantic dyes has reached us is explained for two reasons: centuries of oral tradition and the pen of the French chef Posper Montagnéwho in 1938 published an iconic work of universal cuisine, the ‘Larousse Gastronomique’. In addition to explaining how the crossings are elaborated, in its pages the scholar recounts the origin of the cake, echoing a version similar to the Viennese legend of the seventeenth century. In the work (at least in which it can Consult online) Montagné tells a similar story, although he places the plot during The Buddha site In 1686, not in the siege of Vienna of 1683. “The Turks besieged the city and to reach their hearts they excavated underground galleries. Some bakers, who worked at night, heard the noise made by the Turks and gave the alarm,” He recounts. But … why is it a mockery? Simple. Because when creating their new commemorative cake the Viennese pastries noticed A symbol From Islam: The growing moon. It is also explained by Montágne’s encyclopedia: “To reward the bakers who had saved the city, they were given the privilege of making a special cake that, in memory of the emblem that decorated the Ottoman flag, had to be shaped like a crescent,” duck The gastronomic encyclopedia. In summary: the new cake served to celebrate the Christian resistance and endurance of the city … and incidentally mocked the Ottoman forces. As Collect National Geographicwhen a Vienne devour one of those tasty cakes that emulated a moon really “ate the Turks.” The story was curious. The story, powerful. And for more inri it appeared ratified in a work of the prestige of the ‘Larousse Gastronomique’. So what was expected to be expected: the myth extended, gained strength and made the crosss become more than simple pastry. In their own way, they became a symbol. But is it true? The million dollar question. If gastronomy is good (in addition to satisfying palates), it is to create Myths and traditions of rigor more than questionable. Italian cuisine, Spanish either Japanese (To name only three examples) leave a few examples. And the Viennese legend of the Cruasan seems to be only that: a legend of truthfulness at least difficult to check. With you, the Kipferl. The story tells that the city’s bosoms elaborated two commemorative breads of the victory: the Kaiseremmela kind of “imperial panecillo”; and Kipferlwith a crescent -shaped. That this is the origin of what we understand today is however more than questionable, Remember From the Institute of Culinary Education (ICE). “He Kipferla baked panecillo from a dough of wheat with yeast, is common in central Europe, ” Clarifies the institution in his blog, in which he remembers that there are records that suggest that he Kipferl He ate already in the thirteenth century. Moreover, there are those who believe that their origins are older and more sweet in a similar way they can be seen in Magreb (Tchareke) or Türkiye itself, where the Ay çöreği. History and stories. “It’s almost certain that these stories are false,” assures Austrian chef Jürgen David. In fact they can be found Other stories that also relate the invention of the Capuchino with the Ottoman siege of Vienna. The popular Dunkin breakfast chain It echoes On its website for the legend that maintains that the famous coffee, with its characteristic color (similar to the habit of the Capuchin friars) it was first served in Vienna after its citizens found the sacks of coffee that the Ottoman had left behind. If true, the breakfast with which thousands of Europeans start their … Read more

France has thousands of kilometers of unused train tracks. So you are covering them with solar panels

by

Solar panels and wind turbines have placed us in a complicated decision: aesthetics or generating electricity? Beyond Impact on living beings of the environment in which these renewable projects are installed, it is undeniable that They have a huge visual impact. That’s why, New transparent solar panels for windows or hide them on roads They sound like a great idea. In Switzerland they have developed a project for Place solar panels on the train tracksand now France has copied the idea. Invisible panels. With the name of ‘Solveig Project’, the French rail operator SNCF It has developed, through its Arep subsidiary, a project to create a solar plant that can be deployed on the roads that the company controls. They explode about 32,000 kilometers of lines, so, if the project is successful, the potential is huge. The idea is simple, but ingenious: take advantage of the rails to install solar panels, while batteries and investors are stored in modular containers. For now, Solveig is a pilot project that has started with the installation of eight solar panels at the Achères Technical Center, where they will be tested for six months. Facilities. Having a storage solution such as containers, which include investors and batteries, it is possible for the company to transport these assets as far as it is needed. It also facilitates their installation. As Comment the Director of Innovation of AREP to PV Magazine, the development of a photovoltaic panel transport system through ISO containersas well as its installation on the roads, “it facilitates both the deployment of the panels and the reversibility of the installation.” The operation does not require a complex installation, since a mechanical arm is responsible for downloading the panels, which are subsequently fixed to the tracks to prevent the wind from moving them. And, being temporary, does not require foundations. In addition, the containers are modular and the rail infrastructure is not compromised. Self -consumption. The idea is that this solar solution feeds the internal consumption needs of SNFC, as well as local uses around the facilities. The potential is gigantic, but, although AREP considers that it is possible to export this solution to both Europe and the rest of the world, we must wait to see the results of the pilot project. In addition, the idea would be to implement this system in out -of -service railways, all to add energy to the network that operates SNCF, since 80% of the national trains of the same work with electricity. In addition, he has the commitment To deploy 1,000 MW for 2030, and fill the panel tracks would be a good support. Next steps. The following steps of the Solveig project will focus on improving system efficiency and reducing costs to make it viable on a large scale. Although there is still no definite calendar for industrialization, the potential is evident: SNCF has more than 113,800 hectares of operational land that could become authentic solar parks over rails. In short, if the project gives good results, it is only a matter of time before more countries are uploaded to this new “train” of renewable energy. And, speaking of Switzerland, they are very committed to not shaving their green fields and, apart from the panels on the train tracks, also They are installing them on road walls. We just hope this experiment Do not leave like the one on the solar roadalso in France. Images | SNCF, Arep In Xataka | The bats of Spain live times of uncertainty.

Thousands of Spaniards live in a city and are registered in another. The BOE reminds them that they risk something: fines

by

Maybe you know someone who is in that situation. Or maybe you are (or have you been) yourself. One day you move to another city for whatever reason (work, love, family or simply because you feel like discharge In his register. You are still registered in your previous municipality because your parents may live there or you have a house. After all there is nothing wrong with it, right? LAW AND BOE They remind us That is not quite like that. Moreover, remain registered in a different town to that in which you live can lead to a fine of 150 euros. Tell me where you live … And I will tell you in which town hall you must be registered. Throughout the last weeks it is likely that You have seen Some information On the subject, articles In those talk about the obligation that each of us have of being registered in the municipality in which we currently reside (and not another, such as our parents or where we had our last work) and warns the fines it can lead to Failure to comply with that duty. Actually both one thing and another, the obligation of the registration and the sanctions to breach it, have little again. Start from rules dating from 80s and 90. Although it is true that the BOE reminds us with a certain periodicity. For example, he did In October 2024in a decree of the government on procedures in consular offices. Also The INE or the municipalities themselves They emphasize it. And what does legislation say? He Royal Decree 1690/1986It is clear about it. In article 56, remember that all people who change residence within Spain must request the decline in the City Council and discharge as a resident in the new town to which they move. In the case of minors that demand falls on parents or guardians. The Law 4/1996 On local regime bases it is also resounding. “Every person living in Spain is obliged to register in the register of the municipality in which he regularly resides,” he collects in his article 15. And if there were doubts about what to do in the case of people who alternate residence, the regulations of the late 90s Precise: “Whoever lives in several municipalities must register only in which he lives for a longer time.” Clear and precise. After registering in the register of his new town, that person will officially become “neighbor of the municipality” in the eyes of the administration. Notices for clueless. To be aware of the obligation, it is not necessary to dust off the regulations of the late last century. The State itself is dedicated to remembering it. And through different ways. The clearest is the BOE, which cites that duty of citizens in some of their publications. Just four months ago the Ministry of Presidency did for example in the development of A decree on consular records, in which the law of the 80s recalls and that “every person living in Spain” must be recorded in the register of the municipality in which “usually” resides. Town Halls. The BOE is not the only one to update our obligations. The INE dedicates A broad article to the subject, in which they also include issues as whether or not to notify the removals within the same municipality, and the municipalities themselves are responsible for commenting on their official websites. In A section entitled ‘Most frequent questions about how to register in the register ‘the Madrid town hall is didactic. “Can I be registered in a place other than the one who resides? Every person living in Spain is obliged to register in the register of the municipality where he usually resides (…) on the other hand, the usual domicile in the municipality is one of the data that with a mandatory nature they must appear in the register. The City Council requires. And yes, the ‘no’ in capital letters is his. Vigo’s also remembers that demand On its official website. And what happens if I do not? That you expose yourself to a sanction. One that can actually reach 150 euros, although that will depend on the characteristics of each case. He Royal Decree 1690/1986 collects (article 87) that “the refusal to complete the patron registration sheets, the lack of signature of these, the omissions or falsehoods” can lead the mayor to apply sanctions adjusting to article 59 of the Decree 781/1986. In general, anyone who breaches their obligations with registration. And what does that article contemplate? Simple. It details the fork of sanctions that each town hall can impose on those who fail to comply with its obligations with the register. The document He still speaks of pesetas, but the change to euros is simple. In the case of the consistories of between 5,000 and 20,000 inhabitants, it foresees penalties of up to 30 euros; in those between 20,001 and 50,000 the sanction rises to 60 euros; Those who have between 50,001 and 500,000 residents can raise the fine to 90 euros; And the largest, those cities that exceed half a million neighbors, the punishment for not complying with legal obligations rises to 150. A key document. It may seem exaggerated, but the register is more than a simple administrative record or a tool for demographic studies. The Ministry of Presidency in Another Royal Decreein which he underlined the “great importance” of local censuses. In fact, it is essential to opt “with all guarantees” to certain public services or votes in the City Council in which each one resides. Having more or less population also directly affects the consistories in such relevant aspects as resources and expenses. INEAF Precise In addition, not being properly registered can respond to more than a mistake.

The small city that Mexico is raising to receive the thousands of deportees waiting from the US.

by

Image source, Reuters Article information Author, Will Grant Author’s title, BBC News, correspondent in Mexico January 27, 2025, 13:44 GMT Updated 1 hour In the shadow of a huge crucifix, the workers and construction workers of Ciudad Juárez, a Mexican border city, are building a small city. A city of tents. In the old fairgrounds, under an altar built for a Mass of Pope Francis in 2016, the Mexican government prepares for the thousands of deportees who expect to arrive from the United States in the coming weeks. Ciudad Juárez is one of the eight border towns along the 3,000 kilometers of border in which the country is preparing for the expected expulsion wave. Men with boots and baseball caps rise to the top of a vast metal structure to cover it with a thick white canvas, raising a rudimentary shelter to temporarily house men and women exactly the same the same. It is likely that eventual workers, domestic employees, cooking personnel and agricultural pawns are soon among those sent to the south, once the President Donald Trump calls “the greatest deportation in the history of the United States. “ Image source, Getty images Photo foot, In Ciudad Juárez, Mexican authorities are building a huge center to house deportees. Not only roof and food In addition to nature protection, deportees will receive food, medical care and help to obtain Mexican identity documents, within the framework of a deporteed support program that the administration of President Claudia Sheinbaum calls “Mexico hugs you”. “Mexico will do everything you need to attend to its compatriots and allocate what is necessary to receive those who are repatriated,” said the Mexican Secretary of the Interior, Rosa Icela Rodríguez, the day of Trump’s possession. For her part, President Sheinbaum has stressed that her government will first meet the humanitarian needs of those who return, stating that they will be able to benefit from the social programs and pensions of her government, and that they can work immediately. He urged Mexicans to “keep calm and cold head” about relations with President Trump and his administration, from deportations to the threat of tariffs. “With Mexico, I think we are doing very well,” said President Trump in a video speech against Davos’s World Economic Forum last week. President Sheinbaum has said that the key is in the dialogue and keeping communication channels open. However, it recognizes the potential tension that the Emergency Declaration on the US border by President Trump could assume for Mexico. It is estimated that 5 million undocumented Mexicans currently live in the US and the perspective of a massive return could quickly saturate and overflow border cities such as Juarez and Tijuana. Image source, Getty images Photo foot, Mexico is ready to receive the thousands of deportees that Trump expects to expel from the US in the coming weeks. A difficult task It is an issue that worries José María García Lara, director of the Hostel for Immigrants Juventud 2000 of Tijuana. While teaching me the facilities, which are almost at the limit of their capacity, ensures that there are very few places where you can host more families. “If necessary, perhaps we can put some people in the kitchen or in the library,” he explains. But he admits that there will come a time when there is no longer space, and donations of food, medical material, blankets and hygiene products do not supply. “We are being beaten on two fronts. First, the arrival of Mexicans and other migrants fleeing violence,” says Garcia. “But we will also have the mass deportations. We do not know how many people will cross the border needing our help. Together, these two things could create a big problem,” he warns. In addition, another key part of Trump’s executive orders includes a policy called “staying in Mexico”, under which immigrants waiting for dates to make their asylum cases in an Imigration Court of the United States would have to remain in Mexico before those appointments. Image source, Getty images Photo foot, Mexico has also reinforced security on its side of the border to try to stop illegal crosses. When “staying in Mexico” was previously in force, during Trump’s first term and under the presidency of Andrés Manuel López Obrador in Mexico, Mexican border cities fought to get ahead. Human rights groups also repeatedly denounced the risks to which migrants were exposed when they were forced to wait in dangerous cities where crime related to drug cartels abounds. This time, Sheinbaum has made it clear that Mexico does not agree with the plan and will not accept any US non -Mexican asylum seeker while waiting for her audiences. It is clear that “staying in Mexico” only works if Mexico is willing to fulfill it. Until now, it has drawn a line. President Trump has deployed about 2,500 soldiers on the southern border of the US, which will be responsible for carrying out part of the logistics of his offensive. In Tijuana, meanwhile, Mexican soldiers help prepare for consequences. The authorities have prepared an event center called flamingos with 1,800 beds for the returnees, with troops that bring supplies, install a kitchen and showers. Image source, Getty images Photo foot, In his early days in the White House, Trump has issued a series of orders that seek to launch the largest deportation of undocumented history. While President Trump signed executive orders last Monday, a minibus crossed the doors of the Chaparral border crossing, between San Diego and Tijuana, transporting a handful of deportees. A few journalists had gathered to try to speak with the first deportees of the Trump era. However, it was a routine deportation, which probably had been preparing for weeks and had nothing to do with the documents Trump was signing before a crowd cooling in Washington DC However, symbolically, while the minibus passed at full speed ahead of the media waiting before a refuge managed by the Government, these will be the first of many.

Thousands of Ukrainians have escaped from Russian occupation. Many others have not achieved it … because of their phones

by

In wars are hundreds of terrible paradoxes. A few months ago we had one that was given on the Russian side revealing a cruel and murky equation that encourages military participation: There are Russian soldiers that “are worth” more dead than alive in its origin regions. On the Ukrainian sidewalk there are also circumstances as incomprehensible as that a citizen’s personal phone is his cross to escape the war. The importance of phones to flee. Since the beginning of the Russian invasion, thousands of Ukrainians have tried to escape the occupied territories, facing an extremely dangerous and complex process. At this point the figure of people like Stefan Vorontsovwho fled from the occupation of Nova Kajovka in 2022 and directs the humanity organizationwhich has helped more than 6,000 people escape from the south and east of Ukraine through Russia, the only viable route due to the impossibility of crossing the front line. However, the success of these evacuations depends largely on previous preparation, and a crucial factor, as explained, is The total cleaning of the mobile phones of the evacuees. The reason? That the Russian authorities meticulously inspect each device at the border control points, and do so looking for any indication of loyalty to Ukraine. The escape process and the “legends.” I counted these days Kajovka that to cross the border to Russia, Ukrainians must have a credible story or “legend” that justify their trip. These false narratives are meticulously designed to avoid suspicions, presenting reasons such as medical visits in Russian hospitals or recreational trips to the Black Sea. That said, Young people apparently face greater difficultiessince any trace of Pro-Ukrainian activity in its social networks can be a reason for detention. In this regard, Russian authorities thoroughly question the evacueesreviewing its devices, contacts, searches and social networks, looking for words in Ukrainian, images of the national flag or connections with the Ukrainian army. The trick: clean the mobile. To increase your chances of success, Humanity advises evacuated to eliminate maps, photos of sensitive infrastructure and suspicious contacts. In addition, he suggests adding “Russian” elements in his digital profiles, such as following prorruse Telegram channels or subscribing to Russia favorable content on platforms such as YouTube. In fact, The organization uses Telegram secret chats To discreetly coordinate every step of the evacuation, minimizing the risk of communication being intercepted. Dangers at control points.
