Hebron Area Village Faces Demolition

A shepherd herds sheep across a rocky hillside near the village of Umm al-Khair in the Masafer Yatta area, south of Hebron in the occupied West Bank, on October 29, 2025. Israeli occupation authorities have issued demolition orders targeting 13 homes, the community center and a health clinic in the village. According to village representative Khalil al-Hathalin, carrying out the orders would destroy about half of the village’s housing and displace roughly 150 residents from a population of 300. The demolitions would also leave approximately 65 children without recreational space or access to health services. Photo by Mosab Shawer/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM

Xinjiang Clean Energy Development - China

Sheep forage as a staff member patrols the power lines of the Changji-Guquan 1100 kV ultra-high voltage direct current power transmission project in the Kazak Autonomous County of Mori, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, July 6, 2025. Xinjiang, a region rich in solar and wind energy resources, has vigorously developed the new energy industry in recent years, accelerating the construction of large-scale wind and photovoltaic power base projects. A 750-kilovolt (kV) "power expressway loop," the country's largest of its kind, has taken shape throughout Xinjiang, providing strong support for efficient energy allocation. Today, about one third of the electricity transmitted in Xinjiang comes from clean energy sources such as wind and solar power. It transmits over 270 billion kilowatt-hours of green electricity to other regions. Besides, an increasing number of companies are developing clean energy in Xinjiang, driving the region's green development. The categories of new energy equipment manufact

Carballeda Fire Burns 700 Hectares of Land - Spain

A sheep in a soccer field, on September 7, 2025, in Chao da Veiga, Ourense, Galicia (Spain). The fire in Carballeda de Valdeorras, declared on the afternoon of Saturday, September 6, in the parish of Casaio, is advancing this Sunday towards an area where the fire is "more controllable". The fire already burns about 700 hectares, according to the latest estimates of the Consellería do Medio Rural, and is also located in a terrain "more accessible" than the one that devastated more than 5,000 hectares in August in the same locality. The fire started in two distant points and, in the terrain between them, other outbreaks began to emerge, which suggests that "it was not accidental", and therefore it was possibly intentional.
