Ofattbara scener. Två unga palestinier i Jenin kommer ut från ett hus med händerna på huvudet. De beordras tillbaka in i huset av israeliska soldater, bara för att mördas i fullt dagsljus och med andra palestinier som bevittnar händelsen en bit bort. Soldaterna vet att de knappast riskerar straff.

A new fossil fungus discovered in Scotland shows evidence of plants and fungi sharing nutrients to survive on land.

The fossil, more than 400 million years old, offers hints about the origin of one of the greatest partnerships in the history of life on Earth.

Every home bombed by russia leaves a wound that will never heal — on people's lives and on intl law itself.

It breaks my heart to see these innocent ppl being evacuated into the darkness and cold of the night in Dnipro. Many of them lost everything.

There is no justice left, only the brute force.
