Utilization of treated municipal effluent for irrigating agricultural land in Palestine: The driving factors and existing practices
This article investigates the motivations and practices of using treated wastewater (TWW) to irrigate crop fields in Jenin, Palestine. Around 40 farmers were surveyed for data collection. The results showed that 66% of the farmers grew alfalfa crops while 30% grew fruit trees. The main obstacles the farmers faced before starting to use TWW were disgust (68.2%), worries about the quality of TWW (68.2%), health concerns (63.6%), and concerns about adverse effects on the soil (63.6%). All interviewed farmers considered the establishing and funding of an irrigation project to be the cornerstone for any reuse project. The secon...

Sensors, Vol. 23, Pages 8934: Digital Forensic Research for Analyzing Drone Pilot: Focusing on DJI Remote Controller
n Kim Drones, also known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and sometimes referred to as ‘Mobile IoT’ or ‘Flying IoT’, are widely adopted worldwide, with their market share continuously increasing. While drones are generally harnessed for a wide range of positive applications, recent instances of drones being employed as lethal weapons in conflicts between countries like Russia, Ukraine, Israel, Palestine, and Hamas have demonstrated the potential consequences of their misuse. Such misuse poses a significant threat to cybersecurity and human lives, thereby highlig...

Genomic analysis of a Palestinian family with inherited cancer syndrome: a next-generation sequencing study
In this study, we investigated cancer predisposition in a Palestinian family using whole-exome sequencing (WES) technologies. In this study, we focused more on cutaneous melanoma (CM). Our analysis identified three heterozygous rare missense variants, WRN (p.L383F and p.A995T) and TYRP1 (p.T262M) and a pathogenic homozygous missense mutation in ERCC2 (p.R683Q). Although WRN and TYRP1 genes and their variations were correlated with different types of cancer, including melanoma, the currently identified WRN and TYRP1 variants were not reported previously in melanoma cases. The pathogenic mutation was segregated with the clin...

The Israeli and Palestinian Colors
Brief note about the poem:Saddened by the innocent lives lost, I felt frustrated by my inability to intervene.My thoughts wandered to a world where the colors of the Palestinian and Israeli flags embraced one another. This poem is a blending of those colors.When both of our eyes are closedThe sound of the cries has no borderBut when our eyes openThe drop of Red on the snowOver the Green meadowSpeaks the same language.If we were to open our eyes in the dark Black nightTogether, would we see the same pale White faces?Imagine, if we closed our eyes togetherand all of those beautiful colorsLit up the Blue skyAs the rainbow in ...

Israel-Hamas war sends shock waves through scientific community
Shock waves from the war between Israel and Hamas are rocking the scientific community in the region and around the world. In Israel, universities are mourning scientists and others killed in the 7 October surprise attack by Hamas militants. Hamas, widely considered a terrorist organization, rules the Gaza Strip. Academic laboratories are emptying as foreign graduate students return home and young academics report for military service. Some science continues, says Asher Cohen, president of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (HUJI), but “we cannot maintain full research facilities.” In the Gaza Strip, resear...
