World News@lemmy.ml•India has sent 20,000 workers to Israel to replace Palestinians since Gaza war beganEnglish
5·5 months agoYou do realise, these people are going there willingly, it’s the same people that go to work in cruel conditions to build stadium for Qatar world cup. For a lot of those people it’s just an opportunity to earn, and secure better future. It’s not something that government is encouraging.
Minimum wage in Israel is around 1800 USD a month, average income in India is around 3500 USD, so an Indian worker can work two months and make the same money they’d do in India for a whole year. So they’ll just go to any country that has higher wages and doesn’t restrict their entry.

World News@lemmy.world•French intelligence: China used embassies to undermine sales of France's flagship Rafale fighter jetEnglish
3·6 months agoBoth sides are saving face, India lost some fighters more than one for sure. But no clarity, pakistan claims they downed five, BBC independently verified one, some US officials said two planes were shot down. However it’s unclear if they were downed by Chinese made fighters or not, maybe they were. India confirmed that “losses are part of defense action”. Couple other experts pointed it looked like crash due to air-to-air missiles (but experts are all anoynums and from western countries). The problem is there was so much disinformation in Indian media, Pakistani media and Chinese media around that time. It’s next to impossible to say how the Rafale was downed, but at least downed Rafale is confirmed.

World News@lemmy.world•Spaniards packing water pistols blame impact of mass tourism for housing crunchEnglish
17·7 months agoI think Singapore handles it well, any residential property can only be rented for minimum of six months, less than six months and it must be registered a commercial property and be in a zone that allows commercial activity.
It doesn’t ban AirBnB specifically, but it solves this problem.

World News@lemmy.world•Spain aims to ban flushing of wet wipes, with manufacturers paying for cleanupEnglish
4·7 months agoOk, so I checked a superstore near me, and my updated understanding is
- anything disinfecting is alcohol based be it for skin or for for objects,
- things designed for cleaning skin or to be “refreshing/fragrant” are mostly water based.
- However there are skin cleaning products that are marketed more towards deep clean or dirt/oil/grease etc are almost always alcohol based.
- cleaning objects intended wet wipes also mostly alcohol based. But if marketed as “gentle” could be water based.
So baby wipes being meant to clean skin and be “gentle”, it makes sense that they are water based.

2·7 months agoMaybe my understanding is wrong, and I don’t use wet wipes that often, but the ones I have I bought like a year ago 60% ethanol v/v.

World News@lemmy.world•'What was our fault?’: India razes homes, sparking anger and despair in KashmirEnglish
1·8 months agoWhile I agree with your point that term terrorist is overused, but calling them rebel isn’t any better, we can’t be picking better words that suggest killing random civilians is justified because it’s a rebellion.

1·8 months agoOne negative doesn’t cancel the other one, even if India is terrorist state, doesn’t mean attackers that shoot tourists are not terrorist.

1·8 months agoRebels? Rebels target military targets, correct word for people who target random civilians is terrorist.

Good joke. Everybody laugh.
Seriously gave me a good chuckle after days.
