Eight cheetahs from Namibia have been selected as part of an ambitious restoration project, and their new home in Kuno National Park in central India is similar to the climate, species and climate of the cheetahs’ homeland. In similar circumstances, since the number of cheetahs in Africa has also declined sharply, conservationists want to use this to test whether the “big cats” can recover their habitats that were extinct due to hunting in the past. ?

A 22-year-old Iranian woman, Mahsa Amini, died after being detained by the moral police for not wearing her hijab. Massive anti-government protests erupted in dozens of towns across Iran. Many women cut their long hair and burned the hijab. Under the slogan of “life, freedom, women”, under the government’s strong crackdown and internet disconnection measures, officials say 17 people have been killed in the protests, while human rights groups say at least 31 civilians have been killed.

Meanwhile, Iranian President Raisi (Ebrahim Raisi) was in New York to attend the United Nations General Assembly and was scheduled to give an interview to CNN senior correspondent Christiane Amanpour, but the interview broke down at the last minute – because Raisi’s staff said ” In response to the situation in Iran,” she insisted that she wear a hijab before she was willing to be interviewed.

British Amanpur, who is of Iranian descent, has visited every Iranian president since 1995. According to her, as long as the visit was conducted outside Iran, no president has ever made the same request. Afterwards, Amanpur posted a photo of her without a headscarf, sitting across from an empty chair: “We’re in New York, and there’s no law or tradition here to wear headscarves.”

On September 14, a 28-year-old female subway station attendant was stabbed to death multiple times in the bathroom after working the night shift. The 31-year-old male suspect was her former colleague, who pursued the victimized woman in a “deadly serial call” method. He even threatened to accept the invitation by taking private photos secretly. The victim who could not bear the harassment filed a lawsuit in October last year, and the man was suspended and arrested. However, during the trial of the judicial authorities, the suspect continued to stalk and harass the woman, and finally, the day before the first-instance judgment of the case, he ambushed the victim in a subway station.

The death of the station attendant has sparked outrage in South Korean society, questioning the lack of protection for victims of the “Anti-Gang Sao Law” also passed in October last year, and it has also revealed that the country still does not pay attention to violence against women-President Yin Xiyue proposed to abolish it during his campaign. “The Women’s Family Department”, although political views were suspended after taking office, Minister Kim Hyun-sook went to Sindang Station and told the media that she believed that the case should not be viewed from the perspective of gender or misogyny. “How many more women need to die in this country to change?” read a note on the wall at Xintang Station.
