Why are so many children starving to death in Gaza? We can chalk it up to the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. A thread (1/N) www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/8/...

The hunger we face in Gaza is Israel's weapon of war. Please don't look away. | Opinion

My six younger siblings and I are sheltering in northern Gaza, surviving on scraps. The taste of real food is a memory we can no longer recall.

Anybody spent time in Stellenbosch and have experiences to share? Considering spending a couple months there with my husband and 2yo during sabbatical this year — when it gets super malarious in Uganda. Relatedly: anyone ever deep dived on the effects of months of malarone for toddlers?

Y_dst = b0 + b1 T_dst * I_ds + g_d + g_stI d=district, t=year, s=state. Continuous T varies by d and t, interacted with 2-level I that varies by d. So b1 a vector. gs are district and state-time-indicator FE. WHY IS THAT b1 NOT THE SAME AS FROM: Y_dst = b0 + b1 T_dst + g_d + g_stI for I=0,1

Literally joined this platform (finally) to share this AEDE blog. If you are not heartbroken at the scale of child suffering in Gaza, you are not paying attention. Call your federal rep — at the very least. u.osu.edu/aede/2025/07...
