The rise of weight loss drugs like Semaglutide damaged the business.  In 2023  it bought Sequence, a telehealth company.  That meant it could  prescribe drugs.

Tawaif

***Tawaif*** is a term used in South Asia, mainly in India. It is a courtesan or a female performer trained in traditional music and dance. Tawaifs were skilled artists who entertained rich and important people. They were often educated in arts and literature.

Tawaifs were important in Indian culture and social life. They were most common the Mughal era and the British Raj. Their role in Indian society shrank over time because of changes in society and decreased popularity.

## Historical context

Starting in medieval India, women from a lot of different backgrounds were trained to be Tawaifs. Noble families also sent women to show culture. Over time, these women became professional entertainers and companions.

## Cultural significance

Tawaifs played multiple roles in Indian society. They were good at music, dancing, poetry, and conversation. They were important to the region's art and culture. Their performances included traditional Indian music and dance forms such as Kathak, Ghazal, Thumri, and Mujra.

## Patronage and lifestyle

Tawaifs were paid by rich and important people. These included kings, nobles, and successful merchants. They lived in fancy surroundings and were often provided with a lot of money. The money helped them keep their expensive life and do their work. Tawaifs were also known for their manners and fashion.

## Decline and contemporary status

The Tawaif tradition became less important in the late colonial period. Fewer people were interested, and society was changing.

The tradition faced more rejection in independent India. There were anti-nautch (anti-dance) laws. People thought of Tawaifs as bad.

Now Tawaifs are rare, but their effects in culture continue.

Gracixalus lumarius

The **thorny tree frog** or **thorny bush frog** (_Gracixalus lumarius_) is a frog.  It lives in Vietnam. People have seen it between 1700 and 2160 meters above sea level.

## Appearance

The adult male frog is 38.9 - 41.6 mm long from nose to rear end and the adult female frog is about 36.3 mm long. Its head is wider than it is long and it has a round nose.  The nose holes stick out a little.  It has thick, strong front legs and there are large disks on its toes for climbing. The eardrum is hard to see. The male frog has cone-shaped white bumps on its body. They are easier to see when it is time for the male to find a female to mate.

Unlike most frogs in _Gracixalus_, this frog changes color. During the day, the skin of the frog's back is brown in color. At night, it is yellow in color. Its belly and the front of its neck are pink. The tips of the toes and the webbed skin on the feet are pink-gray in color.  The sides of the body are bright yellow in color.  The iris of the eye is gold in color with black lines in it. The black lines are the same distance apart.

## Home and threats

The frog lives in trees. It lives in bamboo forests and evergreen forests.  The female frog lays eggs on the inside walls of plants with water in them called _phytotelma_. The eggs have two layers of jelly on them to protect them. Scientists believe these frogs hatch into tadpoles that swim and not small frogs, but they have not seen the tadpoles as of 2015. Scientists think the frogs need the phytotelma and cannot lay eggs anywhere else.

Scientists believe this frog is in danger of dying out because it lives in such a small place. One of the places this frog lives is a protected park: Ngoc Linh Nature Reserve in Kon Tum Province. Human beings change the places where the frog lives. They cut down the forests where the frog lives to build big farms for coffee, tea, rubber and other things to grow and sell.  They also build mines to get good rocks and metals, for example gold, out of the ground.  Scientists think that people might also catch the frog to sell as pets because it is so beautiful and colorful, but they are not sure whether this has really happened yet.

## Name

Scientists named this frog _lumarius_ because that it is the Latin word for "of thorns." They gave it this name because the white bumps on its body look like thorns.

Zana ambush

On 6 April 2024, Al Qassam Brigades did a surprise attack on Israeli forces. The attack took place in the Al-Zana area which is located on the east side of Khan Yunis in the Gaza Strip.

## Ambush

One of the leaders of the Al-Qassam Brigades, in an interview with Al Jazeera, said that the fighters of Qassam brigades were planning and preparing from last 50 days for the Zana ambush operation.

The ambush took place during the daytime on 6 April 2024 when Qassam fighters came out from a tunnel of a destroyed building and opened fire on israeli soldiers that were patrolling a road in Khan Yunis. After killing at least 4 soldiers and injuring a number of others the fighters withdrew back into the tunnel. The Israeli soldiers who tried to run behind the attackers noticed that the escape route was booby-trapped and therefore they stopped going after them.

On April 9, 2024, Al Qassam Brigades released a video showing an ambush they did against Israeli soldiers near Khan Yunis in Gaza on the 27th day of Ramadan. The video shows Al-Qassam fighters setting up ambush devices and hiding them in the area. Then, about 30 Israeli soldiers were seen coming at the ambush spot. The video also shows the Al-Qassam fighters using an RPG called Al-Yassin 105 to attack the soldiers' vehicles and the Israeli soldiers taking away dead bodies of killed soldiers after the attack.

## Aftermath

Three Helicopters were seen at the spot taking the dead and injured israelis. The day after the Zana ambush, the Israeli army said they were pulling out the 98th Division and its three brigades from the Khan Yunis area in Gaza. They left only the Nahal Brigade in the Netzarim Corridor, which stretches from southern Israel's Kibbutz Be’eri area to the Gaza Strip's coast. The Israeli army said they would now focus on targeted operations using its intelligence in the ongoing war against Gaza.

2024 raid on the Mexican embassy in Ecuador

On 5 April 2024, the Mexican embassy in Quito, Ecuador, was raided by Ecuadorian police and military forces. Mexico and many other countries criticized the raid as a violation of the 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations and the 1954 Caracas Convention on Diplomatic Asylum.

The raid was carried out to arrest the former Vice President of Ecuador, Jorge Glas, who had been sentenced for corruption and had been living in the embassy since 17 December 2023. A few hours before the attack, he had given political asylum.

The raid led Mexico ending its relations with Ecuador. The following day, Nicaragua also ended their relations with Ecuador, showing their support to Mexico.

A few days before the attack, the President of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, talked about Luisa González, the presidential candidate of the pro-Rafael Correa Citizen Revolution Movement in a press conference. He said how she had a lead in polling for the 2023 Ecuadorian general election and how after the murder of Fernando Villavicencio her polling numbers had dropped, saying that the assassination had affected the election results. After the comments, Ecuadorian officials declared the Mexican ambassador to Ecuador as a _persona non grata_.

After the raid, Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa supported the raid and said it was a matter of national security. He also wished to fix any relations with Mexico, but said that he would not support sending former Vice President Glas to Mexico. Mexico also announced plans to take Ecuador to the International Court of Justice for violations of international law.
