Israel halted its already limited supply of electricity to the Gaza Strip, a move the government called a response to the Hamas hostage crisis and which a liaison officer said would suspend production by a desalination plant in the war-wracked territory.

TEL AVIV:

A six-week Gaza truce, involving limited swaps of hostages for hundreds of Palestinians jailed by Israel, expired on March 2, with the sides divided on conditions for an open-ended suspension of hostilities.

Israel has since halted the entry of humanitarian aid and commercial goods to Gaza, and said more measures would be in store as long as the Palestinian faction balks at its core terms.

"I have just signed the order to stop supplying electricity immediately to the Gaza Strip," Israeli Energy Minister Eli Cohen said on Sunday.

Impetus for science amidst a global churn

The relentless rise of technologies pervades every aspect of human life today, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is its enforcer.

There are two extreme ways—and a few in between—for countries to address this rise. The first is to be a passive user and play with markets, services, and exports of natural resources, including human talent. The second is to become a truly competitive player in this changing world, and to tilt the use of science and technology for our social and economic benefit. Budget allocations can help in pointing out the direction.
