US wildfires mismanagement

In the US, major fires have scorched vast areas across southern California, destroying homes and businesses and prompting thousands to flee.

US-Israeli genocide in Gaza

Day 462 of the US-Israeli genocidal war on Gaza claims more Palestinian lives in the blockaded territory. Fresh Israeli airstrikes in two locations have left several people dead and many others injured. Shelling in the Nuseirat and al-Maghazi refugee camps has also caused casualties. According to UNICEF, more than 70 kids have been killed in the first week of 2025 alone. Over a million children are living in makeshift tents ill-suited to withstand the harsh winter weather. Since October 2023, over 46,000 Palestinians have been killed with the death toll rising daily. A new study published in the Lancet medical journal says the real number of Palestinians killed is much higher than reported. According to the study, Gaza's death toll was 41 percent higher than what's reported by the Palestinian Health Ministry in the first nine months of the genocidal war.
