Salha said that Gaza’s emergency service, the Civil Defense agency, spent three hours trying to contain the fires and failed.According to the head of the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, the medic Asaad al-Nsasrah has not spoken with the media since Israeli soldiers killed 15 emergency responders in southern Gaza on

Words in Hebrew could be heard in the final moments of aof the killings that was subsequently found and made public.“The soldiers were so close to have a dialogue with somebody. And that somebody was Assad,” said Younis al-Khatib, the Red Crescent chief. “What Assad said in Hebrew: ‘Don’t shoot. I am Israeli.’ And soldiers got a bit confused.”

The Israeli military declined to comment.“You know why he said that? His mother is Israeli. Assad’s mother is Israeli — Palestinian Arab Israeli from Bir Saba,” al-Khatib said, referring to the Arabic name for the city of Beersheba in southern Israel.

Al-Khatib spoke on Thursday to reporters in Geneva at the headquarters of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.

Israeli troops bulldozed over the bodies along with their mangled vehicles, burying them in aOne way to show humans caused the warming “is by eliminating everything else,” said Princeton University climate scientist Gabe Vecchi.

Scientists can calculate how much heat different suspects trap, using a complex understanding of chemistry and physics and feeding that into computer simulations that have been generally accurate in portraying climate, past and future. They measure what they call radiative forcing in watts per meter squared.The first and most frequent natural suspect is the sun. The sun is what warms Earth in general providing about 1,361 watts per meter squared of heat, year in year out. That’s the baseline, the delicate balance that makes Earth livable. Changes in energy coming from the sun have been minimal, about one-tenth of a watt per meter squared, scientists calculate.

But carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels is now trapping heat to the level of 2.07 watts per meter squared, more than 20 times that of the changes in the sun, according to the U.S.Methane, another powerful heat-trapping gas, is at 0.5 watts per meter square.
