Bei den #Goldwespen (hier wohl Chrysis sp.) gibt es zahlreiche schwer zu unterscheidende Arten. Sie sind aus der Nähe hübsch anzusehen. An Nisthilfen stellt ihr Vorkommen allerdings für bereits bestückte Nester von anderen Bienen- und Wespenarten eine schlechte Nachricht dar. Wenn diese Brutparasiten ein geeignetes Nest gefunden haben, klettern sie rückwärts in die Bruthöhle und legen ein eigenes Ei ab.

18 hours to go. In their own words, all six families & the mutual aid volunteer we support:

"I have been starving for days."
"I am not shy to say I am hungry"
"What we are going through is beyond what the mind can accept."
"the famine gets harder for us"
"my body is tearing apart from pain"
"A lot of tears"
"They are sleeping outside with no shelter at all"

Keep Hope Alive: a Gaza Giving Circle

We are a team of volunteers in the US and UK, led by two sisters passionate about helping our friends on the ground keep their families and neighbors alive with food, water, & shelter. We saw that their campaigns are extremely stagnant and wanted to find a way to direct steady help to them. We distribute your contributions equally every week for sustainable support.

Wrote in @globalvoices about the Ethiopian doctors' labour movement. Their month long labour strike paralyzed Ethiopia's health sector. Ethiopian doctors are among the lowest paid doctors in Africa, with salaries on average ~70$ monthly. Strikers demanded better pay & fair working conditions among other things.

In response, authorities arrested 149 striking doctors.

Undeterred, the MDs are planning a new strike if reform isn't inplemented by Sept 15.

What’s behind the mass arrests of Ethiopian doctors?

Last year, a report by Human Rights Watch outlined a systemic pattern of abuse and killings of health professionals in the country’s northwestern Amhara region.
