Motorists abandon their cars and run, nothing is visible except smoke - this is what the highway near Jerusalem looks like due to forest fires.

There are at least five more similar fires in the hills, The Times of Israel writes. They arose due to abnormal heat and strong winds.

Pulp, IDLES and Fontaines D.C. among dozens of artists to sign Heavenly Recordings letter defending Kneecap’s freedom of expression

'In a democracy, no political figures or political parties should have the right to dictate who does and does not play at music festivals'

"The letter has been signed by 40 major musicians and artists, including Pulp, Fontaines D.C., IDLES, Massive Attack, Paul Weller, Primal Scream, Enter Shikari, English Teacher, The Pogues, Lankum, Toddla T, Sleaford Mods and Thin Lizzy.

It reads: “This past week has seen a clear, concerted attempt to censor and ultimately deplatform the band Kneecap. In Westminster and the British media, senior political figures have been openly engaged in a campaign to remove Kneecap from the public eye, with veiled threats being made over their scheduled performances at gigs, outdoor events and music festivals, including Glastonbury.”

“Chillingly, it is also clear to us that influential figures and personalities within the wider music industry are attempting to influence this campaign of intimidation. As artists, we feel the need to register our opposition to any political repression of artistic freedom.”

The letter continues: “In a democracy, no political figures or political parties should have the right to dictate who does and does not play at music festivals or gigs that will be enjoyed by thousands of people.”

“The question of agreeing with Kneecap’s political views is irrelevant: it is in the key interests of every artist that all creative expression be protected in a society that values culture, and that this interference campaign is condemned and ridiculed.”

“Furthermore, it also the duty of key leadership figures in the music industry to actively defend artistic freedom of expression – rather than seek to silence views which oppose their own.”

Other signatories include Annie Mac, Bicep, Bob Vylan, Dexys, Katy J Pearson, Lisa O’Neill, Martyn Ware, Shirley Manson, Soft Play and The Mary Wallopers."

Planning to withdraw cash in Spain? You could now face a €150,000 fine

"From now on, anyone withdrawing €3,000 or more from a Spanish bank must notify the Agencia Tributaria (Spain’s tax agency) in advance. If you’re planning to take out €100,000 or more, you’ll need to give at least 72 hours’ notice. For smaller sums over €3,000, a 24-hour notification is mandatory.

The warning must be filed through the tax agency’s official website using a digital certificate, Cl@ve PIN, or electronic ID card. You’ll receive a receipt that must be shown at the bank when withdrawing your cash.

Fail to notify? You risk a fine between 1 per cent and 10 per cent of the amount withdrawn — starting at €600 and climbing up to a massive €150,000, depending on the seriousness of the violation.

Banks are now required to block withdrawals if they detect missing paperwork..."

I wonder why this would alarm and "spark concern" among "health & medical experts"? Baffling indeed!
