President Putin's Victory Day address emphasised Russia's resilience and commitment to its armed forces amidst ongoing conflicts, including in Ukraine. However, this year's parade featured only one tank, symbolising Russia's military presence. Putin also criticised Western nations for colonial policies, while the parade showcased a display of nuclear warheads and various weapons systems. The event commemorated the victory over Nazi Germany in 1945, with over 300 cities participating in ceremonial parades across Russia.

Russian authorities reported that at least eight people were injured in Ukrainian attacks in and around the western Russian city of Belgorod. The assaults occurred as the nation commemorated the 79th anniversary of the Soviet Union's triumph over Nazi Germany. Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov of the Belgorod region disclosed on Telegram, "The city of Belgorod and the Belgorod district faced an air attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, resulting in direct hits on residential apartment buildings and vehicles." He further stated, "Preliminary reports indicate eight casualties, including seven adults and one child." In response to the heightened tensions, Belgorod, along with other Russian regions bordering Ukraine, has scrapped its military parade and other Victory Day celebrations.

Rishi Sunak said he is "deeply concerned" about a potential Israeli offensive in the city of Rafah. "I've been very consistent that we are deeply concerned about the prospect of a military incursion into Rafah, given the number of civilians that are sheltering there and the importance of that crossing for aid," he added.

Rishi Sunak has reassured the public following a major data breach at the Ministry of Defence, which impacted a third-party payroll system. "I do want to reassure people the Ministry of Defence has already taken action, removing the network and taking it offline and making sure the people affected are supported in the right way," he said. He refused to be drawn on claims China is behind the data breach, but confirmed defence secretary Grant Shapps will address MPs in the House of Commons later today.

New 'Long COVID' Study , Could Lead to Future , Treatment Options.
BBC reports that people experiencing "long COVID"
have evidence of inflammation in their blood, which could
lead to further understanding and potential treatments.
A new study in the United Kingdom found the
presence of certain proteins increases the risk
for certain symptoms, including fatigue.
Long COVID is believed to impact
millions of people around the world.
Here are some of the most common symptoms.
Shortness of breath, Extreme tiredness, Brain fog.
Other symptoms of Long COVID can include
sleeping problems, loss of smell and anxiety.
The latest study by the Imperial College
London suggests that inflammation , "could be a common feature of long COVID after
hospitalization, regardless of symptom type.".
BBC reports that the findings suggest that existing drugs
used to treat other forms of inflammation, like
rheumatoid arthritis, could be effective against Long COVID.
This work provides strong evidence
that long Covid is caused by post-viral
inflammation but shows layers of complexity, Peter Openshaw, Lead research Professor, via BBC .
We hope that our work opens the way
to the development of specific tests
and treatments for the various types
of long Covid and believe that a
'one size fits all' approach to
treatment may not work, Peter Openshaw, Lead research Professor, via BBC .
The team's findings were published
in the journal 'Nature Immunology.'

Cost of Easter Eggs Rises , As Climate Change Affects Crops.
Most of the cocoa that is used to make chocolate
is grown in West Africa where a heat wave has damaged crops and cut yields, BBC reports.
This has caused the cost of some
Easter eggs to increase by 50% or more.
According to the World Weather Attribution group, the high temperatures in West Africa "were made 10 times more likely" by human-induced climate change.
According to the World Weather Attribution group, the high temperatures in West Africa "were made 10 times more likely" by human-induced climate change.
The group's study determined that West Africa will experience severe heat waves close to every two years if action is not taken. .
El Niño was also found to have played a role, although "global warming is exacerbating those changes," BBC reports. .
Increasingly, climate change driven
by fossil fuel use is multiplying this natural
challenge in many regions. It fuels more
extreme conditions, devastates harvests,
and makes food costs higher for all. , Ben Clarke, an expert on extreme weather at the
Grantham Institute at Imperial College, via BBC.
Intense rains have also plagued West Africa,
leading to a fungal infection that rots cocoa beans. .
