The plaintiff, through her attorney Thomas Francis Meagher, dismissed the above-captioned case without prejudice pursuant to Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(i) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel has approved the largest seizure of land in the occupied West Bank in over three decades, a settlement tracking group said Wednesday, a move that is likely to worsen already soaring tensions linked to the war in Gaza.

The silence of the US medical establishment amid the genocide is manifest hypocrisy, says Yassar Arain.
