万水千山总是情

The administration has already pledged military support, sending U.S. aircraft carriers to the region as well as aid. Officials have said they would ask Congress for upward of $2 billion in aid for both Israel and Ukraine.The official could not publicly discuss internal deliberations about the potential presidential travel and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. AP’s earlier story follows below.Egypt's president criticized Israel’s military operation in Gaza in a stern pushback Sunday to the United States as America's top diplomat extended his frenetic travels across the Mideast trying to prevent the war with Hamas from igniting a broader regional conflict.With an Israeli ground offensive looming, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken reaffirmed in some of his strongest language to date that Washington would stand with Israel “today, tomorrow and every day” in a partnership of shared democratic values, but that Israel must take “every possible precaution to avoid harming civilians.” He leveled no direct public criticism of Israel or its bombing campaign that has killed civilians in Gaza.From Cairo, where President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi conveyed his criticism, Blinken went to Jordan and planned to return to Israel on Monday, carrying to Israeli leaders the feedback he received in a rush of meetings with leaders throughout the Arab world.His second visit to Israel in recent days will come amid heightening fears that a looming Israeli move into Gaza could spark a wider war with devastating humanitarian consequences, a growing concern for the Biden administration. And the death toll of U.S. citizens rose to 30, with 13 still missing.Egypt’s state-run media said el-Sissi told Blinken that Israel’s Gaza operation has exceeded “the right of self-defense” and turned into “a collective punishment."Blinken told reporters before leaving Egypt that “Israel has the right, indeed it has the obligation to defend itself against these attacks from Hamas and to try to do what it can to make sure that this never happens again." Mindful of the potential human cost in Gaza, Blinken said "the way that Israel does this matters. It needs to do it in a way that affirms the shared values that we have for human life and human dignity, taking every possible precaution to avoid harming civilians.’’Earlier Sunday, the envoy met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in Riyadh, talks that built upon earlier sessions with the leaders of the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar, Jordan and the Palestinian Authority. Blinken said that what he heard in every meeting with Arab leaders “was a determination of shared view that we have to do everything possible to make sure this doesn’t spread to other places, a shared view to safeguard innocent lives, a shared view to get assistance to Palestinians in Gaza who need it and we’re working very much on that.”The White House also appointed David Satterfield, a former ambassador to Lebanon and Turkey, to lead U.S. efforts to get humanitarian assistance to “vulnerable people through the Middle East.” Satterfield was expected to arrive in Israel on Monday.From Washington, President Joe Biden’s national security adviser said the U.S. was not “making requests or demands of Israel with respect to its military operations.” Jake Sullivan, making the rounds of the Sunday TV news shows, said the administration was “simply stating our basic principles — the principles upon which this country is based and all democracies, including Israel, are based. It’s what makes us different from the terrorists, that in fact we respect civilian life.”He said the U.S. was not “not interfering in their military planning or trying to give them instructions or requests specific.” Sullivan said the U.S. is conveying the message in public and in private that “all military operations should be conducted consistent with law of war, that civilians should be protected, that civilians should have a real opportunity to get to safety” and have access to food, water, medicine and shelter.Those remarks marked a shift in the U.S. administration's comments in recent days as officials have heard concerns from Arab leaders about the consequences of what a humanitarian catastrophe resulting from an Israeli ground offensive would do not only to Palestinians but also in inflaming public opinions in Arab nations and potentially destabilizing relatively friendly countries.Sullivan also said the U.S. has been unable so far to get American citizens out of Gaza through Egypt’s Rafah crossing with Gaza. “It has been difficult to execute that operation to facilitate their passage out. … It’s a high priority,” acknowledging that “I’m not aware of anyone else being able to get out at this time.” The crossing was closed because of airstrikes early in the war. There are an estimated 500 Americans living in Gaza, but that number is imprecise, officials have said.U.S. officials have said the Arab reaction to Blinken’s message has been generally positive — acknowledging Israel has a right to respond to the Hamas attacks but expressing deep concern about the humanitarian situation in Gaza and unable to stay silent about the Palestinian civilian casualties that result. The Arab leaders have also said the current situation cannot be resolved without an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal that gives the Palestinians an independent state.Blinken made clear in Egypt that the U.S. will not waver in supporting Israel, saying, "We will stand with it today, tomorrow and every day and we’re doing that in word and also in deed.’’In his roughly hourlong meeting with Prince Mohammed at the de facto Saudi leader’s private farm outside Riyadh, Blinken “highlighted the United States’ unwavering focus on halting terrorist attacks by Hamas, securing the release of all hostages, and preventing the conflict from spreading,” the State Department said.“The two affirmed their shared commitment to protecting civilians and to advancing stability across the Middle East and beyond,” according to a department statement.The Saudi description of the meeting focused primarily on Palestinian civilians, echoing the sentiments that the other Arab leaders with whom Blinken has met. It said Saudi Arabia would object to the targeting of “civilians in any way or disrupt(ing) infrastructure and vital interests that affect their daily lives.”The prince “stressed the need to work to discuss ways to stop the military operations that claimed the lives of innocent people,“ the Saudi Press Agency said in a report about the meeting.___Associated Press writers Sam Magdy in Cairo, Colleen Long in Washington and Michelle L. Price in New York contributed to this report.。时间倒回2022年。那一年，罗建平突发脑出血，偏瘫在床，连起身都困难，更别提走路了。但丈夫黄达伟没有放弃。他陪着妻子，从最基础的动作开始——先是在床边试着站立，再到扶着墙挪动几步，后来慢慢在小区里走一圈。每一次进步，都是日复一日地坚持换来的。就这样，从“走”到“跑”，他们用了三年。2026年，65岁的罗建平顺利跑完六盘水半程马拉松。从一个偏瘫患者，到重新迈过马拉松的终点线，她用双脚把自己的人生一寸一寸地跑了回来。

C | 黄达伟自己也并非天生的跑者。退休前，肥胖、高血压、痛风、脂肪肝接踵而至，身体一度亮起红灯。

D | 正是被这些健康问题逼着跑起来之后，他才真正体会到运动的价值。面对记者，他说道：“跑马不为名次，只为健康快乐。”简简单单几个字，却是经历过生死考验的人才会有的透彻。跑步对于他们而言，从来不是朋友圈里炫耀配速的工具，而是一场关乎健康和陪伴的漫长修行。“银发跑者”不是个例黄达伟夫妇的故事固然动人，但他们并非孤例。

E | 在马拉松的赛道上，还有太多白发苍苍的身影在奋力向前。71岁的贵州跑者刘金养，他说了一句让无数中年人破防的话：“老年人把身体养好，不给家人添负担，就是对家庭最大的负责。”89岁的陆银寿老人同样出现在马拉松赛道上，两个女儿一左一右陪在身边，不赶配速、不比时间，她笑着承诺：“只要还跑得动，我就一直跑下去，跑到100岁。”放眼全国，银发跑者正在从“稀罕事”变成马拉松赛道上的“常客”。2026年济宁马拉松，60岁以上报名选手达423人，较去年增长近七成。

F | 云南74岁的“跑圈传奇”鲁大姐，退休后跑了近400场马拉松。广州73岁的曹建新跑龄超过六十年、全马PB至今保持3小时27分。

G | 这些数字背后，是一群把跑步刻进生命里的人。为什么他们的故事能戳中我们？说到底，是因为他们治好了这个时代最普遍的“年龄焦虑”。我们这代人，25岁焦虑没车没房，30岁焦虑事业无成，35岁焦虑被裁员淘汰……而不少银发跑者才刚刚开始跑马拉松！当你觉得自己“已经老了”“来不及了”的时候，看看赛道上那些白发苍苍的身影，你会恍然：到底是岁月催人老，还是我们自己先认了输？重新定义跑步的意义银发跑者也重新定义了马拉松的“赢”。马拉松的意义从来不是谁先撞线，而是每个人都能按自己的节奏完成属于自己的那段路。

H | 89岁的陆银寿用了近六个小时才走完全程，但那又怎样？她的“赢”，是还能在女儿陪伴下迈过终点线。罗建平的“赢”，是从偏瘫卧床到重新奔跑，把尊严一寸一寸夺了回来。刘金养那句“不给家人添负担，就是对家庭最大的负责”，说得平静，听得扎心。有多少中年人在酒桌上透支身体，有多少年轻人熬夜消耗健康——到头来拖累的是整个家庭。

I | 银发跑者用奔跑告诉我们：对自己身体负责，才是对家人最深沉的爱。写在最后“跑马不为名次，只为健康快乐。”这句话，恰是跑步最本真的意义。

J | 所以下次当你站在起跑线上，不必焦虑配速太慢、成绩不够好——看看那些白发苍苍却目光坚定的银发跑者，你就会明白：速度什么的都是浮云，老了还能健健康康地奔跑，才是最重要的。这或许就是银发跑者教会我们最重要的一课。亲爱的跑友，您说呢？欢迎在文末留言讨论！
