💸 Global health aid is shrinking fast. DAH fell ~21% between 2024–2025 as the US cut its health aid by US$9B; total health aid is down from ~US$80B in 2021 to ~US$39B in 2025. When budgets fall while conflicts and NCDs rise, “global health” becomes triage. #StateOfHealthNews

🦠🌡 In the Western Pacific, climate change is helping superbugs spread. WHO projects 5.2 million AMR‑linked deaths and US$148B in costs between 2020–2030, as heat and extreme weather drive infections and antibiotic misuse. Climate policy is antibiotic policy.

Hezbollah ensures Israel can no longer hide its losses. Cheaply made FPV drones are crushing tanks & bases, inflicting soldier casualties in the 100s. Israel is now unable to hide its losses due to it all being caught on film. Robert Inlakesh on the implications of these new drone warfare tactics:
