Enthusiasts shared close-up photos of their edits, with some praising the gimmick as a clever nod to physical comics' unique potential, while collectors debated preserving copies for value or buying extras. The penultimate chapter, out now for $4.99, earns high marks around 4.5/5 for its stunning visuals and deep themes ahead of next month's finale.

Iranian accounts claim construction started last week on the 657-kilometer Herat-Mazar-e-Sharif railway in Afghanistan, built by Iranian firms and funded by local minerals for a seamless connection to China. Proponents see it as a sanctions workaround via the Five Nations Corridor, potentially slashing trade distances by 50% and opening paths for pipelines. No confirmation comes from Iran's Railways, Afghanistan's Ministry of Public Works, or state media, despite recent Tehran talks on June 8 and ongoing feasibility studies. The project follows years of delays, with security and funding hurdles still in play.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Social media lights up with reports of shovels breaking ground on a key Afghan rail line linking Iran to China. But official voices remain silent so far.

Amazon Kuiper Kenya Limited, a new subsidiary, has applied for a 15-year licence to build a ground station linking its low-Earth orbit satellites to Kenya's fibre networks. This would boost Amazon Leo's broadband service, promising residential speeds up to 400 Mbps and business speeds to 1,280 Mbps—far exceeding Starlink's current offerings amid Kenya's growing demand. Kenya's undersea cables, skilled workforce, and equatorial position make it ideal, and approvals could bring better rural access while raising concerns about signal interference with local mobile networks.

On March 12, Sayyid Badr Hamad Al Busaidi told Omani editors that his country will not normalize relations with Israel or join the U.S.-led Board of Peace, linking the ongoing U.S.-Israeli war on Iran to efforts to weaken Tehran, reshape the Middle East, and block Palestinian statehood. The conflict, now in its second week since February 28 airstrikes that killed Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, has seen Iranian retaliation damage Oman's Salalah port and threaten oil supplies. Historically neutral Oman, which attended the Board's launch as an observer, now condemns the war as immoral while urging diplomacy amid alliance strains and reactions from Trump and analysts.

A post highlighted a word in a 5th-century Syriac lectionary manuscript, interpreted by some as "Mnhammna" or "the praised one" referring to Muhammad as prophesied by Jesus. Critics countered that the word ܡܢܚܡܢܐ (mnaḥmānā) means "Comforter" from the Semitic root n-ḥ-m, translating the Greek Parakletos for the Holy Spirit in John 14:26. Discussions emphasized linguistic differences, biblical context identifying the Comforter as the Holy Spirit dwelling in believers, and historical refutations like St. Dionysius Bar Salibi's response.
