We will take a look at a few stories here that we have not had a chance to touch on so far this our. Thousands of children are currently separated from their parents as the result of the conflict in the Tigray Region of ethiopia thats the conclusion of a report by the charity Save The Children. Many are said to be living in unsafe and dire conditions in informal camps. Six months after the fighting started, the charity says almost A Thousand unaccompanied children have been recorded by the United Nations and more than 4,000 have been separated from their parents. It says many of them have no adults to look after them and are at risk of neglect and sexual and physical abuse. Our Africa Correspondent Correspondent Catherine Byaruhanga explained the background to the crisis. Its already very difficult to get Aid And Support to tigray and now what Save The Children are saying is that children really are facing the brunt of this. Many of them are turning up at informal camps, they dont have adult caregivers and this means its very hard for them to get food, water and shelter. And on top of this, some children are living in single rooms with dozens of other people including adults. Now this leaves them at risk of physical and even sexual violence. The important thing right now is to open up access for humanitarian organisations across tigray. The un estimates that 1. 7 million people have been displaced because of the fighting. But because of the inaccessibility to much of the region, only 10 of these people have received humanitarian aid. Now the un, the United States and several European Countries are calling for an end to the conflict, for negotiations, and for the thousands of people in the region to receive the aid that they need. This is a conflict that began in november of last year. You had the regional government, the tplf, that took on the federal government, the ethiopian government. A month into the conflict, the government in Addis Ababa said they had won the war but the fighting has continued, forces from eritrea have been involved in this Conflict And Weve received numerous reports of massacres being committed by all sides. Now another aspect of this conflict has been the use of rape women, young girls have talked about being raped by soldiers either from Eritrea And Ethiopia and right now, the real concern is that people arejust being caught up in this conflict and they are not getting the help that they need. I will with the background to the crisis. Our correspondence. Matthew sugrue, humanitarian director at Save The Children, described the depth of the needs theyre trying to address. The numbers speak for themselves, we are seeing over 4000 children separated from at least one parent if not both, almost 1000 unaccounted with no legal guardians and 1. 7 million people across the region who have been displaced and 4. 5 million people who are in need of humanitarian assistance and i think those are numbers really do speak to the urgency and critical nature of the urgency and critical nature of the situation. The current response is scaling up, we are seeing an increase in funding from the international community which is good, but quite frankly, the scale of the crisis is that simply outpacing the funding at the Moment And Aid agencies, including Save The Children, are doing what we can to help people in need across the region and in our case focusing on children in need. Imagine if you are 11, 12, or children in need. Imagine if you are 11,12, oryoungerand you children in need. Imagine if you are 11,12, or younger and you have children in need. Imagine if you are 11, 12, or younger and you have been separated from your home, friends, family, from what you are used to come out living, where you felt comfortable and know you are living in crowded conditions, is in some cases 50 people are living in crowded conditions, in some cases 50 people or more living in one room, cases of ptsd, children withdrawing and really showing signs and symptoms of horrific conflict. Children living in these kind of conditions and informal camps and settlements really are at a heightened risk and we know this from around the world in different responses at risk of whether it is abuse or other violence or exportation. The children in tigray have been out of school for over a year, first because of buys another conflict. Violence or exploitation. Aid agencies are doing what they can, but it is a critical need and gap, finding a way to get the kids back into education. Protection of children and civilians and providing those mental Health Support as well as food and medical care that civilians across the region are the highest priority and needs right now. President biden says his administration will allow almost 63,000 refugees into the United States this year.

A Landmark Trial has begun in the United States against apple, accusing the Tech Giant of abusing its market dominance. Epic games, which makes fortnite, says Game And App developers have no choice but to use the technology giants App Store. Apple denies that its practices are unfair. Leah nylen is the anti Trust Reporter at politico, whos been following the trial from oakland in california. She explained its significance. Epic is really bringing claims that get to the root of apples entire business model. They are challenging Apples Ability to regulate its App Store, one of its biggest revenue centres. What they really want is they want to reduce the commission is that developers have to pay. They right now. Apple charges all developers of digital goods a 30 commission. Epic would like that to be lower. They also would like to offer apps within the App Store, like other App Stores, essentially, within apples App Store. So you could go to epic� s App Store and download games from there instead of from apple, and that would Sort Of Completely Upend apples business model. Thats what epic wants, if it wins, but it is Sort Of a legal tricky area here in the us. Its something that they call the Sort Of very frontiers of competition law. So its not a guaranteed win for epic, but there is a lot of interest in this trial at the congressional level as well. About two weeks ago there was a hearing here in congress about App Stores, and there were senators of both parties, the republicans and democrats, who were really very sceptical, i would say, of apples arguments, and suggested that they might want to possibly change the law or regulate if epic should lose.

The advice they got from italy was suggesting that if people had not come out of a coma within two weeks, if they did come out, they were going to have major failures of organs, and i took two and a half weeks. But yeah, it wasnt looking good. My heart had stopped twice. They had to perform cpr on me. My kidneys had failed. I was on dialysis. He made a miraculous recovery after his eight weeks in hospital, but it took him the best part of last year before feeling normal once again.

I feel like this year, University Students have been left behind, Sort Of, not concentrated enough on, Sort Of, our mental health. I think we need to make our own decisions, so for me, i believe firmly in independence and thats the way we need to go. Its one that has to look quite broad. I think weve got a lot of problems at the moment in society. I think we need to look at a broad spectrum. Since the Senedds Inception just over two decades ago, Welsh Labour has been in power in some Shape Or Form but now, theres more choice than ever for welsh voters come May The 6th. And for many, the key question will be, do we want more of the same or is it Time For A Change . Tomos morgan, Bbc News, outside the senedd.

The appeal of Star Wars is completely worldwide and the fact that that little piece of star Wars History comes from bristol is what i think makes this so, so special. Dave prowse� s imposing 6ft 6 height made him the perfect choice for darth vader. Its no secret that he was disappointed that his voice was never used on the film.

Nine endangered giraffes have been rescued from an island threatened by rising Flood Waters in kenya. The Baringo Giraffe, also known as the rothschild giraffe, is close to extinction, with fewer than 2000 left in the wild. Emmanuel igunza reports. Its an audacious rescue mission. The Baringo Giraffe is being carefully ferried to a new home in a custom made barge. Shes one ofjust 3,000 Baringo Giraffes that remain in the world. The local community decided to act when a herd became trapped on a disappearing island. Decades of rising water in Lake Baringo meant the island was getting smaller every year. The Food Availability on the island is highly fluctuating and insufficient, so it is justifying in supporting the need for the translocation of the giraffe to the mainland. The team has been using Satellite Images to plan the move. The digital Africa Platform contains data that until recently was only available to a handful of people. Now the team can see changes in Water Levels and Vegetation Cover in the region going back several decades. Its a new tool for conservationists responding to africas increasingly unpredictable weather. These erratic patterns means that we have to deploy real time data and information to support Conservation Efforts both by citizens and governments to ensure that they plan effectively and try to mitigate the devastating impacts of these climatic changes. On the mainland, the barge must be carefully brought to the shore. The rest of the herd have already made this perilous journey and they are waiting for her in the new giraffe sanctuary. The long term aim is to introduce more giraffes from other parts of the country and build up Kenyas Population of Baringo Giraffes. Emmanuel igunza, Bbc News, kenya.
