  6. #ICYMI "the presence of prolactin-inducible protein and lactotransferrin indicates the human blood was harvested shortly after childbirth. The blood triggered a reaction forming biomineralised calcium carbonate, which effectively bonded the paint to the limestone rock face, allowing it to withstand extreme heat, rain, and typhoons for centuries. Only a small amount—about 8 millilitres per square metre-was required for this crystallization." bradshawfoundation.com/china/h

    "Israel confirms soldiers fired at car in which Hind Rajab was killed and opens criminal investigation

    The Israeli military has confirmed for the first time that it opened fire on a car carrying five-year-old Palestinian girl Hind Rajab, who was killed along with six relatives in Gaza in 2024.

    Rajab initially survived the attack and answered a telephone call during which she pleaded for help. The call lasted hours.

    An ambulance sent to reach her – in a move co-ordinated with the Israeli army - was then shelled, killing two paramedics. Hind's body was recovered days later, along with the others killed.
    In a statement, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said that it would open a criminal investigation into Hind and her family's killing, as well as the killing of 15 Palestinians, including medics and a UN worker, in March 2025.
    Both incidents drew international condemnation.
