Un nuevo estudio arqueológico sugiere que los soldados del Reino de Judá, en el siglo VI a.C., utilizaban un sistema numérico sorprendentemente avanzado para organizar su vida cotidiana. El descubrimiento proviene de un conjunto de cerca de 100 fragmentos de cerámica inscritos hallados en la fortaleza de Tel Arad, al sur de Israel, durante excavaciones realizadas en la década de 1960.

Los investigadores israelíes Amir Gorzalczany, de la Autoridad de Antigüedades de Israel, y Baruch Rosen, independiente, reexaminaron recientemente estas piezas y publicaron sus conclusiones en la edición 2025 del Jerusalem Journal of Archaeology. Su análisis se centró en los datos numéricos grabados en los fragmentos, que hasta ahora habían recibido poca atención.

La Palencia medieval y la huella de su comunidad judía

Julián García Torrellas nos invita esta semana en ‘Cosas de Palencia’ a conocer cómo era nuestra ciudad en la Edad Media, y especialmente se centra en la presencia y relevancia de la comunidad judía desde la repoblación cristiana, a partir del siglo X. En aquel tiempo, Palencia era una ciudad pequeña, organizada en torno a los barrios de San Antolín y San Miguel, con una población que apenas superaba los 4.000 habitantes.

Según explica García Torrellas, la comunidad judía llegó a representar entre un 15 y un 18 por ciento de la población, asentándose en distintas zonas de la ciudad a lo largo de los siglos, hasta quedar finalmente concentrada en la llamada judería nueva, en la actual calle de Santa Fe. Los judíos desempeñaron un papel clave en la vida económica, dedicándose al comercio, la recaudación de impuestos, la medicina o la actividad intelectual, además de contar con varias sinagogas repartidas por la ciudad.

Israel muestra su postura y toma acciones ante la alarmante pérdida de valores en los organismos internacionales

En el escenario internacional, las instituciones de carácter global fueron fundadas bajo la promesa inquebrantable de proteger la justicia, la verdad y la integridad de las naciones. Sin embargo, cuando las agendas ideológicas desplazan a los principios éticos, la confianza colectiva se fractura.

A través de un contundente pronunciamiento emitido por el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores de Israel, el gobierno ha alzado la voz de manera enérgica contra las determinaciones más recientes de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas (ONU), marcando un antes y un después en su relación diplomática debido a lo que consideran una hostilidad institucionalizada y sistemática hacia su nación.

El núcleo de la indignación radica en la resolución de incluir a entidades israelíes dentro del anexo del informe sobre Violencia Sexual Relacionada con los Conflictos (CRSV).

Lo que dejó nervioso a Netanyahu tras su reciente plática con Trump

Trump y el primer ministro israelí Benjamín Netanyahu conversaron el martes sobre un nuevo intento de alcanzar un acuerdo con Irán en una tensa llamada telefónica luego de la cual Netanyahu quedó “nervioso” tras la conversación, reportó Axios citando a funcionarios.

Catar y Pakistán redactaron un memorando de paz revisado, con la participación de otros mediadores regionales, para intentar superar las diferencias entre Estados Unidos e Irán, según las fuentes. Esto ocurre en un momento en que Trump duda entre ordenar un ataque masivo contra Irán y esperar un acuerdo.

Netanyahu se muestra muy escéptico respecto a las negociaciones y desea reanudar la guerra para debilitar aún más las capacidades militares de Irán y al régimen destruyendo su infraestructura crítica.

Trump insiste en que cree que se puede llegar a un acuerdo, pero que está dispuesto a reanudar la guerra si no se logra.
