When a child born today reaches 60, the annual death toll from climate change-related flooding, storms, heatwaves, wildfires, dehydration, landslides, diseases and the armed conflicts they will amplify and help cause will be in the hundreds of thousands or even millions of people per year globally.
Death toll reaches 162 in Thailand and dozens missing in Indonesia after major floods
Meanwhile, rescuers in Indonesia were struggling to reach the worst-affected areas of Sumatra island, where more than 100 people were still missing.

Good morning, Bluesky.

Hospital massacre caps a long series of attacks on healthcare in war-torn Sudan
Almost 500 patients, their relatives and others were killed at al-Fashir's last functioning hospital during the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces' recent takeover of the Sudanese city, the World Health Organization reported. The attack is an example of increasingly targeted and brutal attacks on hospitals, clinics and medical workers during conflict worldwide, a Reuters investigation found.

Despite Turkey's own political oppression issues, at least this seems to make sense.
Turkey’s Defense Ministry says it’s open to sending troops to Ukraine as part of an international mission, if three conditions are met: a full ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, a clearly defined peacekeeping mandate, and a fair division of responsibilities among participating nations.
