EU Parliament passes UPA resolution — Budka praises it, Ozdoba attacks it

The European Parliament has adopted a resolution on the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), including an amendment rejecting the glorification of the Bandera movement. MEP Borys Budka of Civic Coalition (KO) hailed it as a clear signal to Ukraine, while Jacek Ozdoba of Law and Justice (PiS) accused Tusk's and Czarzasty's circles of blocking stronger language that would have explicitly labelled Bandera followers as bandits and genocidaires.

Is the EU Parliament's UPA resolution a strong enough signal to Ukraine?

Rebuilding Human–Nature Bonds Could Protect Amazon Biodiversity

Researchers argue that rebuilding the reciprocal, care-oriented relationships between Amazonian Indigenous peoples and nature could help counter the predicted effects of climate change on the region's biodiversity. The study, published in Nature, focuses on so-called biocultural erosion — the loss of traditional knowledge and practices tied to ecosystems. Restoring these bonds is presented as a concrete strategy for protecting the Amazon.

Should protecting indigenous traditional knowledge be a climate policy priority?

Diet and Gut Microbiome Shape Immunotherapy Efficacy in Obesity

A Nature study shows that diet shapes how obese organisms respond to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy through gut microbial metabolism and host anti-tumour immunity. The findings were confirmed using custom mouse diet models and human-to-mouse fecal microbiota transplantation experiments. The results suggest that dietary modification could improve cancer immunotherapy outcomes in obese patients.

Should diet be formally included in cancer immunotherapy protocols?

Trump's Iran deal withdrawal hits markets – but Warsaw holds up better than peers

Donald Trump's announcement of withdrawing from the deal with Iran sent oil prices surging and triggered notable drops across European stock markets. Warsaw's WIG20 index initially fell sharply but recovered in afternoon trading, ending as one of the relatively stronger indices on the continent. The Polish exchange proved more resilient than most of its European peers.

Is the Warsaw Stock Exchange a safe haven during global market turmoil?

Anthropic's cost fix: use Claude Opus 4 as planner and Sonnet 5 for tasks — saves 37%

Anthropic recommends using its expensive Claude Opus 4 model primarily as a high-level planner that delegates individual tasks to the cheaper Claude Sonnet 5, rather than running Opus 4 on every query. The "Advisor" pattern combining both models achieves 92% of Opus 4's solo performance at just 63% of the cost — a 37% saving. The approach is aimed at companies looking to cut AI spending without a major quality drop.

Is delegating AI tasks to cheaper models a good enough solution for businesses?

Arab tourists disappear from Zakopane as hotels seek new clientele

Zakopane, which has been a popular destination for Arab tourists in recent years, is seeing a clear drop in visitors from Arab countries in the current season. The local tourism industry is adapting to attract a different profile of international guests. Some hotels and apartments are already adjusting their offerings to meet the changing demand.

Should Polish resorts actively tailor their offerings to the preferences of specific ethnic tourist groups?

Viral video does not show Iranian strike on secret US Gulf base — fact check

After President Trump declared the ceasefire with Iran "over" following fresh Iranian strikes, a video went viral on social media allegedly showing an attack on a secret US military facility in the Gulf. Fact-checkers determined that the footage depicts an entirely different event and does not show any Iranian strike on a US base. The false claim spread rapidly amid escalating US-Iran tensions.

How Jagiełło pacified Greater Poland in 1386

In spring 1386, Władysław Jagiełło arrived in Greater Poland (Wielkopolska), which had been ravaged by years of civil war. His intervention ended the bloodiest phase of the conflict, though not all disputes were settled. The campaign also allowed the king to establish a political base in the oldest region of Poland.

Was Jagiełło's intervention in Greater Poland primarily a political move rather than a peacekeeping one?

AI skin algorithms expand beyond the face to body care – help or hype?

The beauty industry is extending AI-powered skin analysis from the face to the whole body, with algorithms set to recommend lotions for legs and arms based on individual skin traits. Until now, body care received far less technological attention than facial skincare. The shift raises the question of whether personalised body-care recommendations are a genuine convenience or a new source of appearance-related anxiety.

Do AI beauty algorithms help consumers rather than create new insecurities?

100 writers from 54 countries voted Don Quixote the greatest book of all time

In 2002, the Norwegian book club Bokklubben, in cooperation with the Norwegian Nobel Institute, gathered 100 writers from 54 countries to select the 100 most important books of all time. While all chosen titles were considered equal, Miguel de Cervantes' Don Quixote received a special distinction as the greatest among them. The 17th-century Spanish novel is widely regarded as the first great work of modern European literature.

Does Don Quixote deserve to be called the greatest book of all time?

Internal Cytoskeletal Oscillator Found to Drive Neuron Polarity

Researchers have found that the ARP2/3 complex works together with actomyosin in an oscillatory program at the neuron's soma to govern neuronal polarization — the process by which a nerve cell determines which end becomes its axon. This intrinsic cytoskeletal mechanism is key to normal nervous system development. The findings were published in Nature on 8 July 2026.

Epitope editing enables chemotherapy-free stem cell transplant for sickle cell disease

Scientists used epitope editing of the KIT protein to enable antibody-based, non-genotoxic conditioning for stem cell transplantation, avoiding the need for chemotherapy. The technique selectively enriches therapeutically edited BCL11A haematopoietic stem cells and boosts fetal haemoglobin production. The approach could transform treatment of sickle cell disease and -thalassaemia.

Should gene therapy replace chemotherapy in stem cell transplant conditioning?

Shoebox-sized satellite detector could identify hidden nuclear warheads in orbit

Scientists have proposed a shoebox-sized satellite detector capable of identifying the telltale radiation signature of a hidden nuclear warhead in orbit. The technology could be used to verify arms-control treaties and monitor nuclear proliferation from space. The project is still at an early conceptual stage.

Would an orbital nuclear warhead detector strengthen global security?
