On the night of Saturday, March 6, Israeli forces struck three sets of oil depots ringing Tehran - west, east, and south - simultaneously. The explosions were massive.

Studies consistently indicate that air pollution, for example in the form of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2), is associated with depression and depressive symptoms. Exposure to lead, endocrine disruptors and other chemical substances, especially in developmental life phases, may increase the risk of mental health issues later in life.

The UK has today exposed the chilling truth behind the death of Russia n opposition leader Alexei Navalny in a Siberian prison. Laboratory tests confirm that epibatidine, a lethal toxin found in the skin of Ecuadorian dart frogs, was in Navalny's body - and almost certainly caused his death. "Only the Russian state had the means, motive and opportunity to deploy this lethal toxin during Navalny's imprisonment - and we hold it responsible for his death," said the UK government. Epibatidine is not naturally found in Russia, nor can dart frogs in captivity produce it. There is no innocent explanation for its presence in Navalny's system.

A toxicology report obtained from the North Carolina Office of the Chief Medical Examiner shows that Naroditsky had methamphetamine, amphetamine, mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine in his system at the time of death. The latter two compounds are the primary psychoactive ingredients in kratom, a plant-based supplement that can act as a stimulant or sedative depending on dosage. Methamphetamine and amphetamine are synthetic stimulants that can cause severe cardiovascular strain, organ damage and fatal overdoses.

Plastic is everywhere. Inside the human body, in the depths of the ocean and the far reaches of the Arctic. Now a new study warns that, unless the world changes course, plastic could more than double its damage to human health within the next two decades. The culprit is not plastic litter in the environment or microplastics, but the emissions released across plastic's entire life cycle from fossil fuel extraction and manufacturing to transport, recycling and disposal.

Karen Stirrat and Charmaine Lacock are mothers of children they say were exposed to infections while being treated for cancer at Glasgow's flagship "super hospital". They were some of the first parents to voice fears that something in the way the buildings were constructed was inherently unsafe. Dozens of vulnerable children like theirs with cancer or blood disorders became even more unwell while being treated at the hospital. Some of them died.
