Starving #piglet rescued from Danish #art exhibit

#Benjamin is among three other #piglets #rescued after being left to #starve in a #Danish art exhibition by Chilean artist Marco Evaristti.

The piece was designed to protest #Denmark’s pork industry. But come on, that is not okay.

A member of the artist’s team coordinated with an animal rights group to rescue them.

Copenhagen Organization Against the Suffering of Animals.

The IDF and Shin Bet successfully rescued Qaid Farhan Alkadi, an Israeli Bedouin, from H@mas held in R@fah.

Alkadi is the first live host@ge to be rescued from a tunnel!

Alkadi, age 52, was taken from Magen on October 7.

Today, people risked their lives to bring him back.

This complex operation was executed by Division 162, Brigade 401, Yahalom anti-tunnel forces, and Shayetet 13 naval commandos.

It’s important to note that those taken on October 7 weren’t just Jewish; they included Christians, Muslims, Bedouin, and Druze—showing that all Israelis have been affected.

Welcome home! 💙🤍

The Washington Post · Live updates: Israel says four hostages rescued alive in Gaza operationBy Victoria Bisset

Fond memories of when we randomly #rescued #roosters dumped in middle of nowhere & we spent over 24 hrs trying to find & rescue them. We found 2 of 3 chickens dumped by asshole irresponsible humans. I witnessed the dumping & tried to catch them before they went into deep forest areas. It took us 36 hrs to rescue these 2, in pouring rain! Champion chookies!
It was worth all the hard efforts. They're both at retirement farm home now ❤❤

The #submarine that is missing from a visit to the #Titanic reminds me of the Kursk desaster 23 years ago. The Kursk was a huge Russian nuclear sub that sank after 2 explosions. The rescue buoy had been disabled earlier on purpose. The #Russian military didn't start a search for 6 h, then refused outside help.

Could they have been #rescued? We will never know. But the Russian #marine alone could not or did not want to save them.

Knocks were heard for 3 days. All 118 poeple on board died.
