Boarding passes and check-in to be scrapped in historic change to airport rules
The new system would replace traditional boarding procedures with facial recognition technology
"The International Civil Aviation Organization (#ICAO) is set to introduce a "digital travel credential" system within the next three years. This would allow travel without the need for documentation.
The #UN-backed initiative would replace traditional boarding procedures with facial recognition technology. Passengers would instead use a "journey pass" stored on their mobile phones."

🇵🇸 ‘It would be easier to die in an airstrike than die of hunger’: Gazans face famine as UN runs out of food | Mondoweiss
The #UN’s World Food Programme, a lifeline for millions of people in Gaza who rely on it for food aid, has run out of its food stores. Palestinians in Gaza say that famine isn’t imminent — it’s already here.
Aside from the intermittent bombardment and shelling, something more constant preoccupies Muhammad al-Hajj Ahmad, 54. A resident of the Zeitoun neighborhood east of Gaza City, Hajj Ahmad cannot stop thinking about how he is going to feed his seven children, the eldest of whom is 16. Since the beginning of the war, he and his family have relied on food distribution points run by relief organizations, as well as individual and collective initiatives. The last satisfying meal he and his family ate was two weeks ago.
