"An overcrowded rubber dighy ran into bad weather crossing the Mediterranean Sea... resulting in the deaths of three sisters who had escaped war-torn Sudan.
Volunteers... found the bodies of the three, aged 9, 11, and 17 years old." www.dw.com/en/sudanese-...
Sudanese sisters die in Mediterranean crossing – DW – 08/24/2025
The three children had left Libya with their mother and brother, hoping to reach Italy. International estimates suggest that this Mediterranean crossing has claimed 30,000 lives in the past decade.

Four years after the fall of Kabul, Taliban succeeds in near-total exclusion of women

A United Airlines flight illegally transported ammunition handling systems – among military cargo overwhelmingly funded by the US government – to Israel through Irish territory this morning.
