The 2026 military funding bill released this week would
require the U.S. to assess Israel’s weapons arsenal
and suggest ways to undo any “gaps” that may be caused by arms embargoes imposed by other countries protesting Israel’s violence.
This remarkable measure comes as a response to at least two dozen countries that have restricted or ended weapons transfers to Israel since its genocide began on October 7, 2023.
It also comes after countless experts, including watch…

Annual defense bill includes provision to effectively undo Israel arms embargoes
Republicans boast that the budget “provides unprecedented levels of support for the security of Israel.”

Spectroscopic Reverberation Mapping for SARM: The Case of Mrk 1048 and Mrk 618
Robust extragalactic distance measurements are crucial for resolving the persistent discrepancy in the value of the Hubble constant (H$_0$)). Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs), through their compact and variable broad-line regions (BLRs), enable the determination of geometric distances when reverberation mapping (RM) is combined with spectroastrometry(SA). We report results from a spectroscopic RM campaign (October 2022 to March 2023) targeting two narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies, Mrk 1048 and Mrk 6…
