- Description
- Phuntsho Tshering is Bhutan’s glacier specialist and the only person authorised to climb the Himalayan country’s sacred mountains. He spends months away from home measuring the rapidly melting glaciers, while faithfully recording videos on his phone for his daughter, Yangchen.
Yangchen in turn has an inner dilemma. She prays that her father won’t disturb the Snow Lion, the mythical embodiment of the glacier which the Bhutanese believe could provoke a natural disaster. Meanwhile at school she is taught that the biggest threat to survival of the Snow Lion is not her father, but climate change.

The population of Taiwan has long grown familiar with Beijing’s pledge to one day ‘unify’ what it claims is a breakaway province. But recently, there has been a significant increase in aggressive and intimidatory acts.
Taiwan’s 160,000 active military personnel are vastly outnumbered by China’s 2 million-member armed forces, leading many civilians to turn to voluntary medical and combat training to protect themselves.

- Barnacles could help us locate the missing Malaysian Airlines flight 370.
These Barnacles, known as Gooseneck Barnacles, cement themselves to Ocean debris and then use minerals from the sea to build their shells layer by layer. Each layer is made up of slightly different minerals which can tell a story of the temperature and other conditions in the water where it was formed.
A piece of the missing plane washed up on the French owned Réunion island off the coast of Madagascar in 2015 with gooseneck Barnacles attached. Since then scientists have developed ways of tracking the ocean temperatures he Barnacles had traveled through to then calculate through statistics the drift pathway that could lead back to the crash.

- In 2022 the world lost an area of tropical forest the size of Switzerland - more than 4 million hectares. By 2024 a, staggering 16 million hectares will be lost. That's the equivalent of a tropical
forest the size of Tunisia and the rate of deforestation is getting faster.
96% of deforestation happens in the tropics which is especially bad because tropical forests help regulate weather, store vast amounts of carbon and provide homes for the widest variety of wildlife.

But after weeks of intense settler violence in the aftermath of the Hamas attack on Israel on 7 October – and despite the decades-long fight to remain in their homes – these communities are now being forced off their land. Some have described it as “a new Nakba.”
The Guardian’s Bethan McKernan travelled to Masafer Yatta and heard from Palestinian families how armed settlers – some in reservist uniforms, others covering their faces – have begun breaking into their homes at night, beating up adults, destroying and stealing ...

- International Law states that “launching an attack which may be expected to cause incidental loss of civilian life, injury, or damage to civilian objects, which would be excessive, is prohibited."
However, rapid urbanisation means more people than ever are living in cities and increasingly military objectives are being found in civilian areas. As a result, in cities where there are conflicts, civilians account for 90 percent of the casualties.
Neelam Tailor explains just how destructive the use of large weapons like Israel's Iron Sting can be on densely populated areas such as Gaza.

In the occupied West Bank, Israeli-owned farms are flourishing, while Palestinians often do not have enough water to drink. And in Gaza, Palestinians are facing deadly levels of water shortage. Josh Toussaint-Strauss examines how Israel took control of the region's water supply and created a deadly water scarcity crisis for Palestinians.

- Helen’s world is turned upside down when she discovers that her face has been digitally edited on to images of women in sexually explicit and often violent situations. Subscribe to Guardian News on YouTube ► http://bit.ly/guardianwiressub
Helen shares the impact this deepfake pornography has had on her life and challenges a culture that treats women’s appearance and image as public property while the perpetrators remain anonymous.
Deepfake pornography is an increasingly common form of image-based sexual abuse and in June 2023, an amendment of the online safety bill was announced that criminalises the sharing of deepfake intimate images online.

- Description
- Warning: the following video contains graphic and distressing footage.
The al-Aqsa hospital in central Gaza Strip has become overwhelmed with patients since the start of the Israel-Hamas conflict. Majdi Fathi, a photojournalist in Gaza, takes us inside the hospital for one day to see the conditions doctors are facing, the extreme number of injuries and funerals. Alongside the patients, the corridors in this hospital are also home to families seeking refuge.
After Hamas' rampage in southern Israel on 7 October, Palestinians in Gaza are being hit by Israeli airstrikes and more than 5,000 people have reportedly been killed. The vast number of casualties in this hospital are children, women and elderly people.

Living in a post-apocalyptic graveyard, Ayham and Khalil now race against local scrap metal collectors to find what they can, which they are forced to sell at a reduced price.
With what little money they make they buy food and cook together, dreaming of Aleppo before the civil war forced them to leave and waiting for an end to their bureaucratic limbo. From their shared tent their friendship endures, despite their impossible circumstances.
