黎巴嫩公共卫生部说，以色列军方星期二对黎巴嫩南部多地发动多轮空袭，造成至少19人死亡，其中包括三名儿童，另有32人受伤。

综合新华社和法新社报道，黎巴嫩公共卫生部星期三（5月20日）发布声明说，以军对黎巴嫩南部提尔地区代尔卡农纳赫尔镇（Deir Qanun al-Nahr）的空袭造成初步统计10人遇难，其中包括三名儿童和三名妇女，另有三人受伤。

此外，以军在南部其他地区的空袭中，有九人遇难，另有29人受伤。

声明说，以色列发动的空袭主要集中在南部提尔地区的各城镇、奈拜提耶市及周边地区。

以色列军方此前曾对12个黎巴嫩城镇发布疏散警告，其中11个位于南部，一个位于东部贝卡地区。

据黎巴嫩公共卫生部星期二（19日）公布的统计数据，自3月2日黎以战火重燃以来，以色列对黎巴嫩发动的袭击已造成3042人死亡、9301人受伤。

WHO says Ebola not a “pandemic emergency,” and U.S. criticism over response may be down to “misunderstanding”

Geneva— The World Health Organization on Wednesday said the risk of the Democratic Republic of Congo’s deadly Ebola outbreak was currently high at the national and regional levels but low worldwide.

WHO experts said that while investigations into its origins were ongoing, given the scale of the situation in the eastern DRC, the outbreak probably began a couple of months ago.

But the UN health agency’s emergency committee said it did not currently meet the pandemic emergency threshold.

“WHO assesses the risk of the epidemic as high at the national and regional levels, and low at the global level,” said the organization’s chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

So far, 51 cases have been confirmed in the DRC, in the eastern provinces of Ituri and North Kivu, “although we know the scale of the epidemic in DRC is much larger,” he told a press conference at the WHO’s headquarters in Geneva.

He said Uganda had also reported two confirmed cases in the capital Kampala, including one death, while a U.S. national working in the DRC has been confirmed positive and transferred to Germany. American doctor Peter Stafford, whose family lived with him in the DRC, was evacuated to Germany and was receiving treatment, the missionary groupSerge said Tuesday.

“There are several factors that warrant serious concern about the potential for further spread and further deaths,” said Tedros.

“Beyond the confirmed cases, there are almost 600 suspected cases and 139 suspected deaths,” he said. “We expect those numbers to keep increasing, given the amount of time the virus was circulating before the outbreak was detected.”

Ebola outbreak not “a pandemic emergency”

On Sunday, Tedros declared the situation a public health emergency of international concern — the second-highest level of alarm under the legally binding International Health Regulations (IHR) — triggering emergency responses in countries worldwide.

The WHO emergency committee convened to assess the outbreak met on Tuesday.

“The current situation and criteria for a public health emergency of international concern have been met, and we agree that the current situation does not satisfy the criteria for a pandemic emergency,” the committee’s chair, Lucille Blumberg, told reporters from South Africa.

Anais Legand, WHO technical officer on viral hemorrhagic fevers, said investigations were under way to pinpoint how long Ebola has been spreading in the eastern DRC.

“Given the scale, we are thinking that it has started probably a couple of months ago, but investigations are ongoing and our priority is really to cut the transmission chain by implementing contact tracing, isolating and caring for all suspect and confirmed cases,” she said.

WHO responds to U.S. criticism

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Tuesday said the WHO was “a little late” in identifying a deadly outbreak.

President Trump, in one of his first acts on returning to office last year, set in motion a U.S. withdrawal from the WHO, which he attacked bitterly over its response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Numerous public health officials and experts warned at the time that, as one of the world’s largest funders of global health through both international and national agencies, including the WHO, America’s step back from such programs could impact efforts to provide lifesaving healthcare and combat deadly outbreaks, especially in lower-income countries.

Asked about Rubio’s criticism, Tedros said that “maybe what the secretary said … could be from lack of understanding of how IHR work, and the responsibilities of WHO and other entities,” he said, explaining that the agency acted in support of countries rather than replacing them in outbreak responses.

世卫：伊波拉疫情全球风险低

世界卫生组织星期三说，刚果（金）和乌干达出现的伊波拉疫情在国家和地区层面的风险偏高，但在全球层面的风险水平仍属偏低。

综合路透社和法新社报道，世卫总干事谭德赛星期三（5月20日）说，目前伊波拉疫情的疑似死例增至139起，疑似病例为600起。由于在发现伊波拉疫情前，病毒已传播一段时间，预计疑似病例和死例数量仍将上升。

世卫官员同天指出，这场伊波拉疫情很可能始于数月前，这给遏制疫情的努力带来了挑战。此外，最有希望的实验性疫苗，还须要六到九个月时间才能进入临床试验阶段。

谭德赛也说，世卫紧急委员会星期二在日内瓦召开会议，确认这次由较少见的本迪布焦型伊波拉病毒引发的伊波拉疫情属于国际关注的突发公共卫生事件，但尚未达到“大流行”级别。

谭德赛强调，世卫评估认为，这次刚果（金）和乌干达出现的伊波拉疫情“在国家和区域层面的风险较高，在全球层面的风险较低”。

他说，由于事态紧迫，他上周宣布，刚果（金）和乌干达出现的伊波拉疫情已构成国际关注的突发公共卫生事件。这是世卫总干事首次在未事先征询专家意见的情况下，采取这一举措。

Supreme Court rulings loom in four major Trump-related cases

2026-05-20T10:01:25.085Z / reuters.com

WASHINGTON, May 20 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump was incensed on February 20 when the U.S. Supreme Court struck down his sweeping global tariffs, an integral part of his economic and foreign policy strategy. That may not be the last disappointment for Trump during the ​court’s current term.

Four more major cases involving Trump are due to be decided by the top U.S. judicial body by around the end of next month. They involve his effort to ‌restrict birthright citizenship, fire a member of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board of Governors, oust a Federal Trade Commission member and end protected status for hundreds of thousands of immigrants from Haiti and Syria.

The Supreme Court, whose 6-3 conservative majority includes three justices he appointed during his first term as president, has backed Trump in a series of decisions issued on an emergency basis since he returned to office last year. But, based on questions posed by the justices during arguments in the cases, Trump may lose on birthright citizenship and the Fed firing.

The court ​next issues rulings on Thursday.

“There are going to be a series of losses for the Trump administration, but I think they pale in comparison to the number of wins that the administration will get,” Georgia ​State University law professor Anthony Michael Kreis said.

AN EXECUTIVE ORDER

On the first day of his second term as president, Trump signed an executive order that instructed U.S. agencies ⁠not to recognize the citizenship of children born in the United States if neither parent is an American citizen or legal permanent resident, also called a “green card” holder. The directive is a central element of the Republican president’s hardline ​approach toward immigration.

During arguments in the case on April 1, most of the justices signaled skepticism about the legality of Trump’s directive. At issue is whether Trump’s order violated citizenship language in the U.S. Constitution’s 14th Amendment as well ​as a federal law codifying birthright citizenship rights.

None of the three Trump appointees – Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett – seemed enthusiastic about the president’s legal positions during the arguments, Kreis said.

“The Trump administration is probably looking at a 7-2 loss,” Kreis said.

University of Pennsylvania political science professor Rogers Smith said a majority of Americans has long supported current birthright citizenship policies.

“There is a reason that repeated Republican efforts since the 1990s to change birthright citizenship rules have never made it out of committee in Congress, even when ​Republicans controlled both legislative chambers,” Smith said. “Most members of Congress know that most of their constituents do not favor changing current policies.”

THE LISA COOK CASE

Since the Fed was created in 1913, no president until Trump had tried to oust ​a central bank official. When Trump last year moved to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, he cited unproven claims made by one of his appointees that Cook had engaged in mortgage fraud, though she said the allegations were a mere pretext ‌to oust her ⁠over monetary policy differences.

During January 21 arguments in the case, most of the justices expressed unease about the ramifications for the Fed’s cherished independence from political influence if they were to endorse Trump’s arguments that he acted within his powers in seeking to remove Cook.

When the Supreme Court decided last October to hear the Cook case, it opted to leave her in the post while the legal dispute played out. It did not do so with Federal Trade Commission member Rebecca Slaughter, allowing Trump to remove her while her legal challenge proceeded.

When the court heard arguments on December 8, the conservative justices signaled they would uphold Trump’s firing of Slaughter. The Justice Department has asked the court to use ​the case to overturn its 1935 precedent that has ​constrained presidential power by protecting the heads of independent ⁠agencies from removal.

A 1914 law passed by Congress permits a president to oust FTC commissioners only for cause – such as inefficiency, neglect of duty or malfeasance in office – but not for policy differences to guard against political interference. Similar protections cover officials at more than two dozen other independent agencies.

The conservative justices appeared to embrace the Trump administration’s ​arguments that such tenure protections encroached on presidential power under the Constitution.

“A decision in favor of Trump in the Slaughter case will strip power away from Congress and ​give much more to the ⁠president,” University of Minnesota political science professor Timothy Johnson said.

Bradley University political science professor Taraleigh Davis said that it seemed clear during the arguments in the Cook case that the justices want to protect the Fed.

“But I didn’t hear an answer to what legal principle actually distinguishes the Fed from the FTC,” Davis said.

TEMPORARY PROTECTED STATUS

The court heard arguments on April 29 over the Trump administration’s move to strip 350,000 immigrants from Haiti and 6,100 from Syria of temporary humanitarian protections provided years ago ⁠by the U.S. ​government. The court traditionally has deferred to presidents on matters of immigration, national security and foreign policy.

Trump’s administration has moved to rescind ​designations under the government’s Temporary Protected Status program that lets migrants from nations stricken by war, natural disaster or other catastrophes live and work in the United States while it is unsafe for them to return to their home countries.

Trump admin accuses Hamas of backing Gaza flotilla, sanctions activist and Muslim Brotherhood networks

May 20, 2026 6:00am EDT / Fox News

Treasury Secretary Bessent calls the flotilla a ‘ludicrous attempt to undermine’ Trump’s progress toward peace

The Trump administration on Tuesday accused Hamas of using activist and Muslim Brotherhood-linked networks to support a Gaza-bound flotilla and sanctioned several organizers tied to the effort.

The sanctions package, announced by the Treasury and State departments, also targeted activists associated with Samidoun, an anti-Israel activist network that U.S. officials describe as a front for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), along with operatives tied to Muslim Brotherhood networks aligned with Hamas.

The U.S. has designated the PFLP as a foreign terrorist organization. And governments including the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia have designated the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization. Both groups are Islamist organizations that believe in establishing Islamic theocracies where sharia, or Islamic law, is the law of the land.

The sanctions came after the Israeli navy stopped dozens of boats from the flotilla in international waters off Cyprus and detained hundreds of activists on board. Activists involved in the flotilla say the mission is intended to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza and challenge Israel’s blockade of the territory, while Israeli officials have described the effort as a political provocation.

The move lands as a warning shot at a broader activist ecosystem in the U.S. that has long championed the flotilla campaign in a nexus between Islamist and pro-communist organizations, including CodePink and the People’s Forum, nonprofits funded by an American Marxist expatriate, Neville Roy Singham, living in Shanghai, promoting the agenda of the Chinese Communist Party. On Monday, CodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin published a video, protesting the “kidnapping” of flotilla members detained by Israel, calling the country a “pariah state.” Earlier this month, the People’s Forum demanded the release of other detained activists. The sanctions fit a wider Treasury Department strategy of targeting networks that use humanitarian or civil-society branding to amplify causes aligned with Hamas.

“The pro-terror flotilla attempting to reach Gaza is a ludicrous attempt to undermine President Trump’s successful progress toward lasting peace in the region,” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said. “Treasury will continue to sever Hamas’ global financial support networks, no matter where in the world they are,” Bessent said.

The move reflects growing scrutiny from U.S. officials over the role activist, nonprofit and international support networks play in amplifying or supporting groups designated as terrorist organizations.

The sanctions freeze any U.S.-based assets of designated individuals and generally prohibit Americans and U.S.-based entities from conducting business with them.

The State Department said the designations target three categories of what it described as Hamas enablers: organizers of a Hamas-backed flotilla attempting to reach Gaza, operatives within Hamas-aligned Muslim Brotherhood networks that facilitate violent terrorist attacks and coordinators tied to Samidoun.

Among those sanctioned were Spain-based Saif Hashim Kamel Abukishek, a member of the Popular Conference for Palestinians Abroad who Treasury officials said served on the flotilla’s steering committee, and Jordan-based Hisham Abdallah Sulayman Abu Mahfuz, the acting secretary general and president of the Popular Conference for Palestinians Abroad.

Treasury also sanctioned Belgium-based Samidoun coordinator Mohammed Khatib and Madrid-based activist Jaldia Abubakra Aueda, whom officials accused of helping coordinate the group’s activities in Europe.

Treasury has previously described Samidoun as a fundraising and support platform for the PFLP in countries where the group faces legal restrictions.

The sanctions package also targeted several operatives tied to Hamas-aligned Muslim Brotherhood networks, including members linked to Harakat Sawa’d Misr, an Egypt-based militant offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood known by the acronym HASM.

“Hamas uses these enablers to sustain its position in Gaza, finance its operations, and engage in terrorist violence beyond its borders,” the State Department said. “Today’s action exposes how Hamas exploits diaspora organizations, religious institutions, and purported civil society groups to advance its malign agenda while claiming humanitarian objectives.”

Treasury accused Karim Sayed Ahmed Moghny, one of the individuals sanctioned Tuesday, of directing militant activity, training operatives in covert operations and collaborating with HASM on attacks targeting Israeli interests.

Treasury also sanctioned Marwan Abu Ras and the Palestinian Scholars Association, which officials accused of helping align religious institutions in Gaza with Hamas’ ideology.

The sanctions came as Israeli forces intercepted the remaining flotilla vessels Tuesday, detaining hundreds of activists aboard the boats, according to The Associated Press.

Flotilla organizers said 428 activists from more than 40 countries were detained after Israeli forces stopped roughly 41 vessels in international waters off Cyprus, according to the AP.

Amnesty International called for the release of flotilla activists, including Abukishek, and described the mission as a “peaceful solidarity mission” intended to break Israel’s blockade of Gaza.

Turkey and Hamas condemned Israel’s interception of the flotilla, while Ireland’s prime minister described the operation in international waters as “absolutely unacceptable,” according to the AP.

Samidoun told Fox News Digital it rejected the sanctions and denied having “material or organizational ties” to groups designated as terrorist organizations. The group also accused the U.S. government of politically coordinating the sanctions with Israel’s interception of the flotilla, which it described as “piracy” and the “abduction” of activists.

激活大脑“隐形血液泵”？多咀嚼或有助延缓认知退化

2026年5月20日 18:43 / 联合早报

除了帮助消化，咀嚼可能还有助于维持脑部健康。

英国广播公司（BBC）报道，越来越多研究显示，充分咀嚼不仅能增加饱腹感、改善专注力和缓解压力，也可能与记忆力及认知功能有关。科学界目前正研究所谓“咬合—大脑轴”（bite-brain axis），探索牙齿健康、咀嚼能力与阿尔茨海默病等神经退化疾病之间的联系。

一项涵盖欧洲14国、超过2万8500名50岁以上人士的大型调查发现，咀嚼能力较好、保留较多天然牙齿的人，在词汇记忆、语言流畅度和计算能力等认知测试中的表现普遍较佳。

科学家认为，这可能与咀嚼系统和大脑海马体之间存在神经连接有关。海马体负责学习和记忆，也是阿尔茨海默病最早受影响的区域之一。部分研究发现，咀嚼较有硬度的食物时，脑部血流量会有所增加。

有学者据此提出“血液帮浦”理论，认为咀嚼可能促进脑部供血，从而帮助维持认知功能，不过相关机制仍有待进一步证实。

为了验证这种关联，瑞典研究团队正为缺牙患者植入人工牙根，并利用磁力共振扫描（MRI）持续追踪脑部变化，希望了解恢复咀嚼功能后，脑部结构和认知表现是否会出现改善。

除了长期健康效应，咀嚼也可能在短时间内提高警觉性和专注力。综合多项研究的分析显示，咀嚼口香糖的人在部分认知测试中的表现略优于未咀嚼者。不过，研究人员指出，这类效果通常只能维持约15至20分钟。

至于缓解压力方面，目前证据仍不完全一致。一些研究发现，咀嚼可降低焦虑及压力相关指标；另一些研究则未观察到明显效果。专家因此提醒，现阶段仍需更多研究验证咀嚼与心理健康之间的关系。

不过，多数研究人员都认同，细嚼慢咽有助提升进食体验，让食物的口感、香气和风味得到更充分释放。至于每口食物究竟应咀嚼多少次，学界并无统一标准。专家建议，与其刻意计算次数，不如放慢进食速度，充分咀嚼后再吞咽。

联合国秘书长古特雷斯星期三（5月20日）指出，上周举行的中美元首会晤虽然缓和了两国紧张关系，但未取得重大突破，也使中国国家主席习近平今年稍后访美的重要性进一步上升。

习近平与美国总统特朗普上周在北京举行会谈，双双方未能就延长将于今年晚些时候到期的贸易休战协议。不过，特朗普已邀请习近平在9月24日回访华盛顿。

古特雷斯星期三在东京举行的记者会上说：“外界原本认为，两国之间的紧张关系正在缓和。但必须明确的是，这次会晤并未取得重大突破，因此习近平主席访问华盛顿的重要性大幅提升。”
