...said the threats are intended to “displace an exhausted and starving population that has nowhere to flee”.

New Comet SWAN25B over Mexico
A newly discovered comet is already visible with binoculars. The comet, C/2025 R2 (SWAN) and nicknamed SWAN25B, is brightening significantly as it emerges from the Sun's direction and might soon become visible on your smartphone -- if not your eyes.

This cricket isn’t named Jiminy. Meet the armored bush cricket (Acanthoplus discoidalis). Growing up to 1.9 in (5 cm) long, it uses its powerful jaws to feed on a diet that consists of leaves, other crickets, and even nestling birds.

These elderly Thoda women of the Western Ghats identify cryptogam species (lichens and mosses) by their local names. This is an important group of plants in Thoda culture that is often overlooked in modern projects to conserve biodiversity; traditional knowledge contributes to the discovery of new species used for medicinal purposes and food. #India, 2010

On approach.
Khaled Imad, 62, said he had fled the city on foot following Israel’s threats and intensifying strikes.
“I’ll continue walking. I don’t know what’s happening,” he said. “The world doesn’t want to act to save these poor, exhausted, dying people.”
