YOUTUBE (Newsmax) - New Israeli Blood Test Could Transform Lung Cancer Detection | Israel Update
On today’s NEWSMAX Israel Update, researchers at Tel Aviv University have developed an experimental blood test designed to identify a chemical fingerprint associated with lung cancer — without requiring expensive DNA sequencing. The research could eventually provide doctors with another tool to complement imaging and monitor patients during treatment. Then, NEWSMAX Israel Correspondent Jodie Cohen heads to Tel Aviv’s Mediterranean shoreline to explore one of the city’s most famous attractions: its beaches. She meets beachgoers enjoying the sand, sea and sunshine and gets a firsthand look at the beach culture that has become an iconic part of life in Tel Aviv.

DNA testing has confirmed that two bodies found on a fast-shrinking glacier in southern Switzerland belong to a pair of Belgian mountaineers who vanished 34 years ago, the latest case of retreating ice giving up the dead. A hiker crossing the Trift Glacier on July 26 spotted the remains and alerted authorities. Wallis Police launched a recovery operation and transported the bodies to the Institute of Forensic Medicine at Wallis Hospital in Sion, where scientists ran DNA comparisons against records of long-missing climbers. The results were conclusive. Wallis Police confirmed the identities in a statement: "A direct comparison of DNA profiles conclusively established that the individuals were two mountaineers who had been missing in the…Open
