Survivors and Displaced Children: Stories of Hope and Desperation

Children from the evacuated Kibbutz Be'eri, which was heavily impacted by Hamas's invasion and massacre on October 7, share their experiences and emotions in an interview with Israel's Channel 12 news. The children, ranging from six to 11 years old, describe witnessing disturbing scenes and express sadness over the loss of loved ones. They criticize the school set up for them at the hotel and express disappointment in the government's response, calling it neglectful. Some children express a desire for their kidnapped relatives to be returned, while others question the prime minister's leadership and express a sense of shame over the loss suffered by their community.

Ukraine war leads to record number of displaced children worldwide.

The number of displaced children globally has reached a new high due to the ongoing war in Ukraine. Meanwhile, ocean temperatures have hit record-breaking highs for the month of May, with human-induced climate change, a developing El Nino event, effects from the 2022 Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano eruption, and a new shipping emissions policy contributing to the warming. Additionally, patients with HIV in the US saw a rise in rare, deadly meningococcal infections last year, and an American tourist was killed and another injured in an attack near Germany's Neuschwanstein castle.
