This is Sable, also in the North West and 🌞, snoozing on the bed in front of the open window. Tough life being a kitty!

Sudan - the largest child displacement crisis in the world, yet it remains one of the most overlooked. 5 million children have been forced from their homes; 17 million children require urgent humanitarian assistance. Nearly half of Sudan’s children have lost between 15 and 18 months of schooling.

"Sudan is not a crisis the word has failed to notice. It is a crisis the world is choosing to ignore." Moazzam Malik, CEO of Save the Children UK

The ICC has an arrest warrant for Yoav Gallant for war crimes in Gaza, but The Times feel it is sensible to let him co-author an opinion piece on why the US should bomb Iran.

Screenshot of The Times headline - Israel has done most of the job - now Trump can finish it; authors are Niall Ferguson and Yoav Gallant.
