Cost of Easter Eggs Rises , As Climate Change Affects Crops.

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.

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.

leading to a fungal infection that rots cocoa beans. .

According to three informed sources, Iran alerted Russia about a significant "terrorist operation" potentially targeting its territory prior to the tragic concert hall massacre near Moscow last month. The deadly attack, deemed the deadliest within Russia in two decades, saw gunmen unleash a hail of automatic gunfire upon concert attendees at Crocus City Hall on March 22, resulting in the loss of at least 144 lives. The Islamic State militant group claimed responsibility for the violence.

The final toll from the Moscow concert hall attack could exceed the confirmed 143 mark, as over 100 missing persons reports are received by Russian investigators. The attack, the deadliest in two decades, saw gunmen storm the venue, shooting civilians before setting the building ablaze. ISIS claimed responsibility, but Russian President Putin baselessly accused Ukraine, sparking international controversy.

Reports are coming that the attackers behind the Moscow concert hall attack, which claimed 143 lives, briefly travelled to Turkey to renew their Russian residence permits. However, radicalization did not occur there. Russian President Putin refrains from directly attributing the attack to ISIS, instead suggesting a connection to Ukraine, a claim Kyiv denies.
