Gaza doctor describes horror of Israeli strike on Nasser hospital


“The six theatres are completely out of action.” Subscribe ► https://www.youtube.com/user/theguardian?sub_confirmation=1 The British surgeon Dr Goher Rahbour described the moment an Israeli airstrike hit Nasser hospital in southern Gaza killing six people, including Rahbour’s friend and colleague Dr Rizk Abu Shaira. The Israeli military said it had struck a Hamas commander and other fighters, without providing evidence. The strike destroyed part of the surgery where Rahbour had been operating the night before. In footage, a ward’s ceiling can be heard caving in, leaving debris-covered beds next to medical instruments damaged in the attack. Nasser hospital is one of the last functioning healthcare facilities in Gaza. It has been attacked seven times since the war began. #gaza #palestine #israel #nasserhospital #idf

How one Ukrainian soldier owes his life to an extraordinary drone rescue mission


Artem Lytvyn was crossing a field when it happened. The Ukrainian soldier had spent five days trekking to a dangerous forward position in the north-east Kharkiv region, when he trod on a mine. Subscribe to The Guardian on YouTube ► https://www.youtube.com/user/theguardian?sub_confirmation=1 With two tourniquets on his shattered right leg, he was dragged into the bushes. Attempts to rescue Lytvyn from his hiding place all failed. But eight days after his foot was blown off, Lytvyn heard a faint whirring noise in the distance. That was the start of a remarkable rescue. The Guardian’s senior international correspondent Luke Harding met him at a hospital in Lviv. #ukraine #dronerescue #ukrainewar #ukrainefrontline #landmines #russia

What's the point in the Cop31 climate summit?


Is there still a point to the Cop climate summit? Subscribe ► https://www.youtube.com/user/theguardian?sub_confirmation=1 Ten years after the Paris treaty entered into force, the Cop31 UN climate summit begins today in the Turkish coastal city of Antalya. With the current state of emissions targets, many are wondering if real progress can be achieved. More than 90 heads of state and government, along with ministers and senior officials from close to 190 countries, are expected to attend. Despite growing scepticism from the media and the public, the Guardian’s environment editor, Fiona Harvey, explains why she thinks the world’s biggest climate summit still matters. #cop31 #climatecrisis #nepal #elniƱo #extremeweather #antalya

The 18-metre-high mega-warehouse towering over a quiet Manchester village


“It’s a living hell, it really is.” Subscribe to The Guardian on YouTube ► https://www.youtube.com/user/theguardian?sub_confirmation=1 The Guardian’s Robyn Vinter reports from the village that has become a frontline in the fightback against superstructures springing up across the UK. In the small village of Astley in Greater Manchester, people are furious about the “monster” construction of a 18-metre-high (60ft) mega-warehouse. This week, villagers will attempt to block plans by Whistl, the distribution firm that operates the warehouse, to use dozens of HGVs and trailers for its round-the-clock operation. In a two-day public inquiry starting today, they will describe how the “cacophony” of noise is already driving some to sleep deprivation and depression. The situation in Astley is just one physical manifestation of the way tech and logistical infrastructure is impacting lives across the UK, from Devon to Cardiff and the Scottish Borders. Plans for Britain’s biggest datacentre were announced last week in North Yorkshire. #whistl #astley #uk #manchester
