Israeli ground forces are making larger incursions into Gaza and officials are again warning of a wider invasion into the strip. At the same time, Israel's punishing air campaign on Gaza is not letting up, while negotiations over the fates of more than 200 hostages held by Hamas have apparently faltered. Leila Molana-Allen reports.
《イスラエルとハマスの戦い２１日目; ガザで電話・インターネットつながらず; これが間近と言われてきた地上侵攻の始まりかどうかは不明 Leila Molana-Allen; In Gaza, a telecommunications company said the bombardment has cut off phone and Internet service; The United Nations passed a resolution today calling for a humanitarian truce between Israel and Hamas, raising the political pressure for a cease-fire; about 7:30 this evening, we started getting reports that inside Gaza, there was no longer any phone signals, there was no Internet signal. That, of course, is an indicator that something is about to happen, and then, just after that, reports from the Israeli military that they were extending their ground operations there; it's difficult right now to know whether this is the invasion they have been talking about or simply an extension. They haven't been clear on that. The IDF has confirmed that there are tonight troops and tanks inside Gaza. That's all they will say; A couple possibilities here, firstly, that they are trying out the ground here, one of those shaping operations, to see what happens, and they don't want to say yet whether this is the full invasion. The second one, of course, is the possibility they haven't been in at this scale to Gaza before, and what they want to find out is what's going to happen. So, if they go in, some military experts saying, if they suddenly sustain lots of casualties, it won't be a huge embarrassment if they say this was just another try going in, this isn't the full invasion; 》

At a time when many classical music and other traditional arts organizations are facing major challenges, a young conductor in Louisville, Kentucky, is expanding the playbook. He's combining music-making with public service and orchestrating community in every corner of the city and state. Jeffrey Brown traveled along for our arts and culture series, CANVAS.
《音楽で地域社会に奉仕; ケンタッキー州の若き指揮者の実践; Teddy Abrams; Louisville Orchestra; It's our responsibility to find the places where other parts of the population are comfortable, where we can be on their turf, we can be guests in their town or their community center or their school, whatever it might be, and forge that relationship from scratch. But it's this human connection that people are drawn to. The music is a part of that, but it's human to human fundamentally; At 36, he's already nearing his 10th year in the city, having arrived in 2014 at just 27, the youngest leader ever here; "My job is to be a public servant in Louisville"; You literally build community by using the power of this art form to convene people, to make them feel like they're living in that kind of communality; Abrams was mentored by one of today's greats, Michael Tilson Thomas; It's not just about shaking hands with people after a concert. That's not enough. It's the act of living in a place, of getting into the rhythm and flow and listening to people and spending time with them. It also sends a signal to my neighbors here in Louisville that I believe their city is a great city... I'm telling them that I believe in this place; 》
