ITV Wales this week: Cardiff Uni to keep music & modern langs.

Some relief, but after months of back and forth, the physical and mental toll on staff has been real.

What about colleagues still facing cuts?

Grateful to share that this issue includes my article on the films of Lionel Soukaz, written before his passing earlier this year. There is still so much more to be said about his radical and inspiring vision for cinema, community and resistance - a vision that we all need, now more than ever.

Traumatic injury mortality in the Gaza Strip from Oct 7, 2023, to June 30, 2024: a capture–recapture analysis Our findings show an exceptionally high mortality rate in the Gaza Strip during the period studied. These results underscore the urgent need for interventions to prevent further loss of life and illuminate important patterns in the conduct of the war.

With excess mortality, the death toll will be in the hundreds of thousands. The question is how many hundreds.
