Working to change the culture from within in Argentine women’s soccer
On March 7, 2024, Cynthia Conforto’s cellphone exploded with calls. On the eve of International Women’s Day events, a sports journalist’s accusation of sexual assault against four Vélez Sarsfield players disrupted plans for 8M. Conforto had been in charge of the club’s Gender Department for only a few months; Vélez is one of the 30 clubs in Argentina’s professional league. The alleged incidents took place during a team training camp in Tucumán, about 750 miles from Buenos Aires.

The researchers who achieved Chile’s first cloned horse: ‘It would not be complicated to clone humans; the only limitation is ethical’
Chile has achieved its first successful equine cloning. The foal, an identical copy of the polo pony Capacidad, was born on September 26 in the O’Higgins region after a pregnancy of nearly a year. Fidel Ovidio Castro, 65, and Lleretny Rodríguez, 50, two Cuban-born academics working at the School of Veterinary Sciences of the University of Concepción in Chile and founders of the company Vi-Embryos, led a research team that accomplished this reproductive biotechnology milestone, together with the Los Abedules Equine Reproduction Center.

Leo XIV’s cancer diagnosis upends the pontificate: ‘We thought we had a pope for 20 years; this changes everything in the Curia’
Overnight, the atmosphere at the Vatican has shifted and the future has become more uncertain. The news of Pope Leo XIV’s cancerous tumor has caused devastation, just 17 months after his election in May 2025, at a time when, at 71 and in good physical condition, he was thought likely to remain pope for many years. “We thought we had a pope for 20 years and now it’s no longer clear; this changes everything in the Curia, all the dynamics,” a prelate admits.

Empate com Argentina conclui período de testes na seleção feminina

Em relação ao jogo anterior, Arthur promoveu nove mudanças na formação titular, mantendo apenas as laterais Isabela e Raíssa Bahia. No gol, Thaís Lima ficou na vaga de Lorena. A dupla de zaga reuniu Tayla e Tarciane.

Assim como no triunfo em território gaúcho, as brasileiras tomaram a iniciativa e abriram o placar logo aos 12 minutos, com Bia Zaneratto, de cabeça, após cruzamento de Raíssa Bahia pela esquerda. Aos 27, em contra-ataque, Gio Garbelini aproveitou asobra para balançar as redes e aumentar a vantagem.
A reação argentina começou aos 34 minutos, com a meia Daiana Falfán. Na etapa final, aos sete, Agostina Holzheier foi derrubada na área por Isabela. A também atacante Florencia Bonsegundo, de pênalti, deixou tudo igual.
A seleção verde e amarela ficou com uma jogadora a mais a partir dos 11 minutos, quando a meia Sofía Dominguez puxou o cabelo de Kerolin, sendo expulsa. Apesar da vantagem numérica, que perdurou por mais de meia hora, o Brasil não criou chances de grande perigo, frustrando os cerca de 30 mil torcedores que marcaram presença na Arena de Pernambuco.

"Tivemos dificuldade de jogar com uma mais. Tem coisas que não foram boas e viram alertas e tem coisas positivas que nos aproximam de uma convocação em maio do ano que vem", disse Arthur, em entrevista coletiva após a partida.
Ao todo, 27 das 28 jogadoras convocadas foram testadas. Ao longo da partida de terça, foram dez substituições, com a estreia da zagueira Carol Gil, do São Paulo, com a Amarelinha. No sábado, o auxiliar Rodrigo Iglesias - Arthur estava suspenso - mexeu outras dez vezes no time, promovendo a primeira vez de Carlinha, mais uma campeã brasileira pelo Tricolor paulista. A também goleira Yanne, do Bahia, foi a única a não participar das partidas.
"Existem jogos em que a prioridade máxima é vencer, como foi com os Estados Unidos [na data Fifa anterior, em junho]. E temos confrontos que são estratégicos, em que tomamos decisões difíceis, mas importantes", justificou o técnico.
Em 2026, a seleção feminina ainda terá dois amistosos contra o Japão, ambos fora de casa. O primeiro será dia 29 de novembro, em Hiroshima, e o segundo em 5 de dezembro, na cidade de Okayama. Já em 2027, são duas datas Fifa (fevereiro e abril), com espaço para até três partidas em cada, antes da convocação para a Copa do Mundo, que será aqui no Brasil.

No small potatoes: Andean tubers rescue the economy of a remote village in Argentina

The trip from the village of Iruya, in northwestern Argentina, to Buenos Aires Province can take several days. “The truck carrying fresh produce takes between 24 and 35 hours to arrive,” says Raúl Viveros, a member of the community Kolla Colanzulí of Finca Santiago. That is the effort required for the country’s largest market to sell the small potato-like tubers known as papines, which have a unique flavor and are produced by the first indigenous community to have been recognized by the state of Argentina.


Digital surveillance and control spread across Latin America under governments of all stripes

Digital surveillance and data leaks may seem far removed from everyday life, but they are becoming increasingly common. In Venezuela, for example, authorities blocked messaging apps and social media platforms including Signal, X, TikTok and Telegram, as well as YouTube, VPN services and websites. In Nicaragua, independent media outlets had their domains blocked. In Paraguay, a leak from the electoral authorities exposed the data of nearly seven million people. And in Argentina, more than 665,000 medical records were put up for sale.
Promotoria diz que equipe médica deixou Maradona à própria sorte antes da morte
A Promotoria que atua no julgamento da morte de Diego Maradona afirmou nesta quinta-feira (8) que o atendimento médico prestado ao ex-jogador em seus últimos dias de vida foi marcado por desorganização e falhas graves. Para os acusadores, a equipe responsável pelo tratamento colocou o ídolo argentino em uma situação de abandono e não cumpriu medidas consideradas necessárias para preservar sua vida.
Durante a apresentação dos argumentos finais, o promotor Patricio Ferrari classificou a internação domiciliar como uma operação caótica. Segundo ele, os profissionais envolvidos deixaram de cumprir obrigações médicas e adotaram condutas incompatíveis com o quadro de um paciente considerado vulnerável e complexo.
Sete profissionais de saúde são julgados no processo, entre eles médicos, uma psiquiatra, um psicólogo e um enfermeiro. Eles são acusados de homicídio com dolo eventual, modalidade em que a acusação sustenta que os envolvidos tinham consciência de que suas ações ou omissões poderiam levar à morte.
O julgamento ocorre desde abril em um tribunal de San Isidro, na região metropolitana de Buenos Aires. Ao longo de quase 45 audiências, mais de cem testemunhas e réus prestaram depoimentos.
Ferrari afirmou que, apesar da extensão do processo, os elementos centrais da acusação permanecem sustentados pelas provas apresentadas durante o julgamento.
Morte após cirurgia
Maradona morreu aos 60 anos, em 25 de novembro de 2020, durante uma internação domiciliar em Tigre, na região metropolitana de Buenos Aires. A causa apontada foi edema pulmonar seguido de parada cardiorrespiratória.
Dias antes, o ex-jogador havia passado por uma cirurgia para tratar um hematoma subdural na cabeça. O procedimento foi considerado bem-sucedido.
Para a Promotoria, porém, o quadro posterior exigia acompanhamento médico adequado e medidas que, segundo a acusação, não foram tomadas.
O promotor Cosme Iribarren afirmou que a morte poderia ter sido evitada e classificou o atendimento como inadequado. Segundo ele, a sequência dos acontecimentos demonstra que o agravamento do estado de saúde não foi tratado de maneira compatível com a gravidade do caso.
Julgamento entra na fase final
A etapa de alegações finais deve continuar pelas próximas duas semanas. Os sete acusados podem receber penas de até 25 anos de prisão caso sejam condenados pelos crimes atribuídos pela Promotoria.
A defesa ainda terá espaço para apresentar seus argumentos antes da decisão judicial.
O processo busca determinar se houve responsabilidade criminal dos profissionais que participaram do atendimento de Maradona e se as condutas adotadas nos últimos dias de vida contribuíram diretamente para a morte do ex-jogador.

Leo Messi’s final appearance: Argentina bids farewell to its all-time record scorer
The story coming to an end had it all: surprise and hope, sadness and dismay, the bitterest defeats and the triumphs that brought joy to an entire nation. Twenty-one years ago, Lionel Messi began writing the first page of his story with the Argentina national team, and on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, he will write the last. Between that ill-fated debut against Hungary on August 17, 2005 — when he was sent off 43 seconds after stepping onto the pitch — and the match with Benin that will close his international career, Messi has already become a legend of assured immortality.

Luis Har, former Israeli hostage in Gaza: ‘If it had been only up to our government, we would still be there’

Luis Har (Buenos Aires, 73) squeezes in a break during his vacation at a hotel in Eilat, a tourist city on the shores of the Red Sea at Israel’s southernmost tip. It is the clearest evidence of the upheaval — from anonymous citizen to a public figure who travels constantly — his life has undergone since October 7, 2023, when Hamas took him hostage in its massive surprise attack, along with his partner, Clara Marman, and three of her relatives, at a kibbutz near Gaza, Nir Yitshak. All five held dual Argentine and Israeli nationality.

El mensaje de la diplomacia norteamericana busca interrumpir las negociaciones entre la cooperativa neuquina y la tecnológica china Huawei para construir un data center regional con equipamiento de esa firma.
Según trascendió, la intromisión de Washington responde a cuestiones de seguridad nacional y geoestrategia, debido a que la administración de Donald Trump considera a Huawei una amenaza ligada al Partido Comunista y al Ejército del gigante asiático, susceptible de ser utilizada para espionaje. A esto se le agrega la proximidad a Vaca Muerta.

Spanish-Argentine expedition to verify whether a geoglyph located in the Andes via Google Earth is genuine

The Dictionary of the Spanish Language explains that a geoglyph is a “large figure on slopes or in wide plains, carved directly into the ground or made with stones, especially by prehistoric peoples.” Of all those located worldwide, the most famous are the Nazca lines (Peru), which have been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. They are visible only from surrounding mountains or from the air, which gives them an aura of mystery. Now, a group of researchers from Argentina and Spain will study a structure that could be a geoglyph discovered last year at about 3,000 meters above sea level in the Tigre mountain range (Argentina) and which was found by mountaineer Carlos Gobbi while consulting Google Earth. A joint expedition will attempt to examine it in situ in December.

Dusklands
Celebrated novelists J.M. Coetzee and F.M. Siccardi recently published a co-written book, Un mal salvaje (A Savage Evil), about their experiences coming of age in South Africa and Argentina, respectively. Both states were created by colonial forces that all but wiped out indigenous populations and cultures. This excerpt juxtaposes the authors’ childhood memories of life in the shadow of genocide, though neither would have known to call it that when they were young. In particular they recall the workers on their families’ land—men they somehow knew both intimately and not at all:
Freek did not see himself as a tragic figure, did not even see himself as a survivor. To see yourself as a survivor of the past you must have a firm conception of that past, you must know where you come from; and Ros and Freek had no such historical consciousness. First, they were illiterate. Second, it was of the essence of the genocide which they had survived that communal memory was erased.
If I were magically able to return to the 1950s and tell Freek about the Khoi who had pastured their stock at the Cape for hundreds or perhaps thousands of years before the Dutch came and laid waste to their society, about a people who were his ancestors, he would have thought it was just a story I was making up. Genocide is not just the destruction of a people, it is also the obliteration of that people’s store of memories and, with it, the destruction of their ability to see themselves historically.
The 140 minutes of horror in the murder of a Mexican musician and his family

On the way back home, Jonathan Meléndez began to feel nervous. He called home and nobody answered. Uneasy, he called the security booth at the housing complex where he lived, and asked them to buzz the apartment through the intercom to see if anyone picked up. On his phone he opened the app that gave access to his Alexa, a smart-home device that allowed him to view the camera feed, speak through his phone and have his voice play on the device’s speaker… But there was nothing. It was after 7 pm. The friend riding with Meléndez in the car says he became concerned by then. Something happened in the following minutes, something Jonathan saw on the Alexa footage, or perhaps someone finally answered the phone, because at 7.20 pm he called the building security supervisor and asked him to call the police: “He told me his business partner was armed.”
