I'm not a native English speaker, so I have to find a solution for what I don't understand. sometimes a conjunction like AS is used in different ways which requires attention, so I go to stackexchange for what I don't know to find a solution. In English, when you read the news or journal, you will see something that you have not learned before. After that, what does the conjunction "As" mean?

1: As the first transgender volunteer in the Israeli Police, activist Efrat Tilma answers emergency calls and works to improve the relationship between police forces and the community.

2: As the civil war in Yemen has grown more violent this year, lawyer Maeen Al-Obaidi continues to be focused on peace building in the besieged city of Taiz.

Questions that can be answered using commonly-available references are off-topic." If you don't understand a use of a word, your first stop should be a dictionary (or more than one dictionaries). These uses of "as" are covered in any good dictionary, and there is nothing strange here. Please look in a dictionary, and then if you still don't understand, explain what you read and what is giving you trouble.
