#GlobalEyes #India #China What effect could the India-China border dispute have on water resources in the region? The latest skirmishes between Indian and Chinese soldiers happened in December 2022.

This conflict could play out on the availability of water for millions of people, as some of India's most important rivers originate in China. Our hosts Isha Bhatia and Lewis Sanders are joined by Antara Goshal Singh, China Fellow at the Observer Research Foundation and by Farwa Aamer, Research Analyst at The Stimson Center, who shed some light on this important issue.

#Israel #Gaza #westbank The Israeli military said early Friday that it carried out airstrikes in the Gaza Strip after militants fired rockets from Palestinian territories toward Israel. The exchange of fire came hours after nine Palestinians — including at least seven militants — were reported killed in a raid by Israeli forces in the city of Jenin, in the occupied West Bank. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said its air defense systems had intercepted two rockets fired from Gaza. Air-raid sirens sounded in southern Israel. There were no immediate reports of casualties. The IDF said its strikes targeted sites linked to Hamas, the Islamist militant group controlling Gaza. Hamas is designated as a terrorist organization by Germany, the US, the EU and some Arab states. The AFP news agency reported, citing security sources in Gaza, that 15 strikes targeted militant sites in the enclave. No injuries were reported. Another three rockets were fired from Gaza after the Israeli strikes, the IDF said. One of the rockets fell in an open area and another fell inside Gaza, according to the IDF. What happened in the West Bank? On Thursday, the IDF said it carried out an operation in the Jenin refugee camp to arrest members of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), a terrorist organization, who were planning an imminent attack. Jenin is considered a stronghold of Palestinian militants. According to the IDF, PIJ members opened fire and were killed in a shootout with Israeli forces. After the raid, the PIJ and Hamas vowed retaliation. No group has so far claimed responsibility for the rocket fire.
