Forced to drop out: Yemen’s children trade school for survivalSanaa, Yemen – At 7am, Qasim, 14, rises and begins his daily struggle. He leaves his family’s rented apartment, carrying a white sack about one metre long and half a metre wide. He hopes to fill it by 11:30am.
Qasim collects plastic bottles. A sack full of these bottles can earn him up to 1,500 Yemeni riyal, about $3. Buyers gather these items to be recycled in factories
That money helps Qasim buy lunch for his six-member family. In the afternoon, he can be a child again, sometimes playing football with other children in the neighbourhood
But that’s when it’s the turn of Qasim’s brother, 12-year-old Asem, to collect bottles, which he then sells at night. That helps cover the family’s dinner costs.
To Qasim and Asem, schooling is a luxury that the family cannot afford. Instead, the priority is meeting the family’s daily living expenses
“I was studying at a government school in Sanaa. When I reached the fourth grade in 2024, I stopped going to the classroom. I wanted to help provide for my family, and my brother did the same in 2025,” Qasim tells Al Jazeera, wiping his hollow cheeks with his right hand
“Sitting in the classroom would not feed me,” Qasim says in a low voice as he gazes at his sack in a busy neighbourhood in Sanaa
For more than a decade, Yemen has been embroiled in a bloody conflict between the Iran-backed Houthis and the Saudi-backed government, a strife that has affected almost all population groups, including schoolchildren
Nowadays, the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) estimates that 3.2 million school-aged children in Yemen are out of school, and 1.5 million displaced children are at risk of permanent school dropout.
Although fighting on the country’s front lines has largely stopped since an April 2022 ceasefire, millions of children remain deprived of access to schooling.
Years of war have altered countless parents’ attitudes towards education. Fathers no longer feel guilty seeing their children work instead of studying.
Qasim’s father, Abdu, a 48-year-old daily wage worker, admits that he does not have regrets about seeing his children outside the classroom, collecting plastic bottles every day
The real pain he feels, he says, is when he cannot meet the family’s basic needs
“Seeing a hungry child is more painful than seeing a child drop out,” says Abdu
Abdu has not left Sanaa since the war began in 2014, and he has seen how university and high school graduates have suffered
“I sometimes work on construction sites as a guard or a digger or a porter, and I find graduates doing or seeking similar jobs,” Abdu tells Al Jazeera.
He adds, “Why should I let my children spend years at school and then come to work in such jobs? They can start working now instead
During the fourth Riyadh International Humanitarian Forum last year, Yemen’s Minister of Planning and International Cooperation, Waed Badhib, said that the war had inflicted heavy losses on the national economy exceeding $250bn, and led to unemployment rates rising to 35 percent
Parents spent lots of money on their children’s education,” Abdu notes. “Today, so many of them cannot land the jobs for which they were trained. It feels like what they did was a waste of time and cash.
Widespread unemployment among graduates has led many parents to disparage the benefits of an education. But Mahmoud al-Bukari, an academic and the deputy head of the social affairs labour office in Taiz, explains that – in the long run – they could be seriously harming their children’s prospects
He knows that, for now, he can get by selling the plastic bottles he collects. His next aim is to learn a trade and make a living.
I want to be excellent in painting, carpentry, or welding,” says Qasim. “I try to learn any skill I can in this city. I will not return to the classroom.”

Sent to be killed’: How Russia forces migrants to fight in UkraineKharkiv, Ukraine – Hushruzjon Salohidinov, 26, was working as a courier in Saint Petersburg, Russia’s second-largest city and President Vladimir Putin’s hometown.
tising Muslim says he was arrested while picking up a parcel which police claimed contained money stolen from elderly women.
Salohidinov says he never interacted with the alleged criminals, but nevertheless spent nine months in the Kresty-2 pre-trial detention centre about 32km (20 miles) from the city, while a judge refused to start his trial because of the “weak evidence” against him.
But instead of releasing him after that, prison wardens threatened to place him in a cell with HIV-infected inmates who, they said, would gang-rape him – unless he “volunteered” to fight in Ukraine.
“They said, ‘Oh, you’ll put on a skirt now, you’ll be raped,’” Salohidinov, who has raven black hair and a messy full beard, told Al Jazeera at a centre for war prisoners in northeastern Ukraine, where he is now being held, having been captured in January this year by Ukrainian forces.
Using a carrot-and-stick tactic, the wardens also promised him a sign-up bonus of 2 million rubles ($26,200), a monthly salary of 200,000 rubles ($2,620) and an amnesty from all convictions
So, in the autumn of 2025, Salohidinov signed up as he “saw no other way out
Officials in Kresty-2, St Petersburg’s prosecutors’ office and Russia’s Ministry of Defence did not respond to any of Al Jazeera’s requests for comment
Salohidinov is just one of tens of thousands of labour migrants from Central Asia coerced by Russia to become soldiers as part of the Kremlin’s nationwide campaign, according to human rights groups, media reports and Russian officials
Hochu Jit, a Ukrainian group that helps Russian soldiers surrender, has published verified lists of thousands of Central Asian soldiers like Salohidinov.
“They are literally sent to be killed, no one considers them soldiers that need to be saved,” the group wrote in a 2025 post on Telegram. These soldiers’ life expectancy on the front line is about four months. “Losses among them are catastrophic,” the group reported
With its low birthrate and large oil wealth, Russia has for years been a magnet for millions of labour migrants from ex-Soviet Central Asia, especially Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan
The campaign by the Kremlin to force Central Asians to fight in Ukraine dates back to 2023 – the year after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine – when police began rounding up anyone who didn’t look Slavic and charging them with real or imagined transgressions such as a lack of registration, expired or “fake” permits or blurred stamps on their documents. Sometimes, migrants are simply bused straight to conscription offices.
In 2025, Al Jazeera interviewed another Tajik man who said he had been detained with an expired work permit and was then tortured into “volunteering” while being subjected to countless xenophobic and Islamophobic slurs from his officers
Migrants say they are abused, tortured and threatened with jail or having their entire families deported
“The main way of recruiting as many migrants as possible is pressure on them with threats of deportation,” Alisher Ilkhamov, the Uzbekistan-born head of the London-based Central Asia Due Diligence think tank, told Al Jazeera
Sometimes, migrants are simply duped
Salohidinov said one serviceman in his squad was an Uzbek who “didn’t speak a word of Russian” and was fooled into “volunteering” while signing papers at a migration centre.
In their reports about “catching” migrants, officials frequently use derogatory terms about them, and also when they describe men who have obtained Russian passports but skipped registration at conscription offices. Since the Soviet era, such registration has been obligatory for all men and, since 2024, a newly naturalised Russian national can lose his citizenship if he fails to do it.
“We’ve caught 80,000 such Russian citizens, who don’t just want to go to the front line, they don’t even want to go to a conscription office,” chief prosecutor Alexander Bastrykin said in May 2025, referring to the migrants’ alleged patriotic sentiments
He boasted that 20,000 Central Asians with Russian passports were herded to the front line in 2025
“I’m even glad that I got captured, because I’m not fighting anyone now, not risking anything,” he said. “I’ll even say thanks to Ukraine for taking me prisoner.”

Why many Kashmiris are donating gold, breaking piggy banks for IranSrinagar, Indian-administered Kashmir — The gold earrings were a gift from her father on her birthday just months earlier. But on March 21, as South Asia marked Eid‑ul‑Fitr, Masrat Mukhtar handed them over to an aid collection effort to help civilians in Iran trying to survive the US-Israel war on the country
She was one of many in Indian-administered Kashmir who paused their customary rituals and celebrations on the auspicious day to contribute cash, household items, and personal assets for a people more than 1,600 km (1,000 miles) away.
Her cousins followed, each bringing items of personal value. Families offered copper utensils, livestock, bicycles, and portions of savings. Children broke their piggy banks, sharing savings they had carefully collected over several years. Shopkeepers and traders handed over parts of their earnings
“We give what we love. This brings us closer to them,” said Mukhtar, a 55-year-old woman from Budgam in the central part of Indian-administered Kashmir, before referring to a name by which the region has historically also been known. “This is what Little Iran does for its namesake. The bond persists through time and conflict
That bond, rooted in more than six centuries of historical connections, has taken on a much more overt presence during the war – drawing recognition from Iranian authorities, and concerns over certain fund collection methods from Indian officials
In Zadibal, a Shia-majority area of Srinagar – the biggest city in Indian-administered Kashmir – 73-year-old Tahera Jan watched neighbours contribute copper pots.
“Kashmiris traditionally collect these utensils for their daughters’ weddings. We chose to give them instead to daughters who lost mothers and sisters in the attacks,” Jan said
Sadakat Ali Mir, a 24-year-old mini-truck driver, contributed one of the two vehicles he drives for his livelihood. Other contributors offered bicycles, scooters, and other essential items. Children, including nine-year-old Zainab Jan, handed over piggy banks
To be sure, that Shia constitute between 10 to 15 percent of Indian-administered Kashmir’s population is a factor in why the war in Iran resonates so deeply in the region. But donations for Iran have extended well beyond Shia. Several Sunni families observed simpler Eid meals, redirecting household resources towards Iranian relief. Some shopkeepers closed early, while families adjusted daily routines to contribute
Political and religious figures also participated. Budgam lawmaker Aga Syed Muntazir Mehdi donated a month’s salary to the relief effort. Imran Reza Ansari, a Shia scholar and leader of the People’s Conference party, noted public participation across communities
Similar donation campaigns in support of Iranians have also been reported from Pakistan, Iraq and other countries
But at the heart of this outpouring of support for Iran in Indian-administered Kashmir – which also witnessed large rallies after the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on February 28 – are rare cultural ties that Kashmir and what was then Persia have shared for centuries
Authorities have also asked volunteers to maintain records to ensure compliance with fundraising regulations
There’s a reason for this concern, say Indian authorities
They point to the example of 2023, where funds collected in southern Kashmir – ostensibly for humanitarian purposes – were allegedly instead funnelled towards rebel groups. Organisers of the Kashmir drives for Iran maintain that all efforts are humanitarian.

Political and religious figures also participated. Budgam lawmaker Aga Syed Muntazir Mehdi donated a month’s salary to the relief effort. Imran Reza Ansari, a Shia scholar and leader of the People’s Conference party, noted public participation across communities
Similar donation campaigns in support of Iranians have also been reported from Pakistan, Iraq and other countries
But at the heart of this outpouring of support for Iran in Indian-administered Kashmir – which also witnessed large rallies after the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on February 28 – are rare cultural ties that Kashmir and what was then Persia have shared for centuries
Authorities have also asked volunteers to maintain records to ensure compliance with fundraising regulations
There’s a reason for this concern, say Indian authorities
They point to the example of 2023, where funds collected in southern Kashmir – ostensibly for humanitarian purposes – were allegedly instead funnelled towards rebel groups. Organisers of the Kashmir drives for Iran maintain that all efforts are humanitarian.

Japan pledges $10bn to help Asian countries deal with oil crisisJapan has pledged to provide $10bn (£7.4bn) to help its Asian neighbours, especially those in South East Asia, secure energy including crude oil as the region reels from disruptions caused by the Iran war.
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi announced the new cooperation framework on Wednesday after an online meeting with other Asian leaders.
Japan relies on South East Asia for petroleum-derived products, most notably medical equipment - something that Takaichi stressed at a press briefing on Wednesday.
Japan is closely interconnected with each Asian country through supply chains and mutually dependent with them," she said.
Japan's cooperation framework aims to help Asian countries procure crude oil and petroleum products, as well as maintain supply chains and expand stockpiles.
Asia is especially vulnerable to energy supply disruptions stemming from blockades of the Strait of Hormuz, as nearly 90% of the oil and gas passing through the key waterway is bound for the region
Japan's foreign ministry said the $10bn in financial aid was roughly equivalent to a year's worth of crude oil imports by countries in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean)
It added that the initiative was welcomed by leaders at the meeting - including those from the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Bangladesh and South Korea - and that funding for the project would come from a range of sources
These include state-backed institutions like Japan Bank for International Cooperation and Nippon Export and Investment Insurance, as well as the Japan International Cooperation Agency and the Asian Development Bank
Takaichi said the initiative would not negatively impact Japan's domestic oil supplies
At the end of 2025, Japan's reserves held enough oil for 254 days of domestic consumption - but the global energy crisis has prompted authorities to tap into these reserves
Last month, Japan released a record 50 days' worth of oil from its reserves. Authorities have said they would release another 20 days' worth in early May.
Fears about a shortage of naphtha - a petrochemical produced from crude oil and a key raw ingredient in plastics - are also simmering in Japan. These worries are especially pronounced in hospitals, where critical medical supplies like syringes, gloves and dialysis equipment are made with the substance.
While Takaichi has urged calm and said there would be no immediate disruptions, fears remain that naphtha shortages could further stress the country's healthcare system, already straining under an ageing population.
There are also anxieties across South East Asia, which has been hit hard by soaring oil prices. Governments have urged people to carpool and curb the use of air-conditioning in a bid to conserve energy. The Philippines, meanwhile, has declared a national energy emergency.
On Wednesday, at the same summit hosted by Japan, Philippine president Ferdinand Marcos Jr called on Asean to activate its fuel-sharing pact
No single country in Asia can insulate itself from supply chain shocks of this scale by acting alone," he said

A full fuel tank is costing us £300 more'A haulier is calling for government support as rising fuel prices caused by conflict in the Middle East drive up operating costs.
Matt Prewett, network operations manager at Hawks Haulage in Leicester, said the cost of filling up a lorry with diesel had shot up by about £300 since March
And while customers are "understanding" of the situation, he said Hawks has had no choice but to pass on some of the rising cost of doing business, and firms need the government to "step in
The government told the BBC it has extended the five‑pence fuel duty cut twice, until September, and will continue to monitor the situation.
The cost of fuel has seen sharp increases globally since the US and Israel launched wide-ranging strikes on Iran on 28 February
The RAC said the average price of petrol was up 25.5p a litre since the start of the war, while diesel had risen by 49p, with both at their most expensive level in more than three years.
It said petrol pump prices had risen for 43 consecutive days - although wholesale prices had begun to fall, predicting prices could begin to lower for customers
Prewett said fuel costs were having a "massive effect" on day-to-day operations transporting goods across the country
He said: "Before the increase, we were looking at between £400 and £500 pounds to fill a truck. Now we're close to £700 to fill a truck
"A certain percentage of that we've had no choice but to pass on to the customers. We've taken a big hit ourselves, but we have had to pass some of these increases on.
"We do have some really loyal and understanding customers, and with the diesel increase being in the press, everybody's aware of it. Everybody notices it when they go and fill their own personal cars up, so they do understand that we have had to pass some of this increase on to them
Some tax relief on fuel prices would be a massive help. We need the government to step in and help out
A government spokesperson said: "Motorists are paying more because of the war in Iran. This is not our war, and that is why we did not join it.
"We are determined to keep costs down for motorists. That's why we have extended the 5p fuel duty cut twice until September and will continue to monitor the situation

A red kite took my mother-in-law's sausage rolls'When pictures of a red kite carrying what appeared to be a sausage roll in its talons were shared widely last month, many were left questioning where the bird of prey had managed to get hold of the savoury snack.
But John Oxenham saw the pictures taken in the skies near his Oxfordshire home and said he knew exactly where the sausage roll had come from - his mother-in-law.
He explained that he and his wife had visited her mother June at her home in Kent last month, before heading home with a tub full of her homemade bakes
"I put some out in the garden and there is a red kite that has got used to finding food in our garden - I believe he took a couple of my mother-in-law's sausage rolls for his lunch," he said
John said he and his wife had a "good chuckle" when they saw the photo taken by Mark Hopkins over Banbury.
Every member of my wife's family who's seen the photograph has said 'that's one of June's sausage rolls'."
We thought 'oh gracious, we're responsible for that'," he said.The RSPB said that, while it was not illegal to feed red kites, it encouraged people "not to put food out in gardens for them".
John, from South Newington, explained that this was "because she makes them in a particular fashion - they're slightly pale".
The charity explained that the birds were "primarily scavengers who travel far and wide in search of food".
We understand these birds are incredible to see up close but the RSPB wouldn't recommend members of the public feed wild birds of prey, as encouraging birds of prey such as red kites into gardens may cause problems," it said.
They rarely have any problem finding dead animals and other things to eat, so there is no need for people to put out food for them," it added.
There is plenty of food for birds of prey in the wild, and people can get great views of them in lots of places."

Burger kitchen boss defends turning away people with allergiesA business owner who tells his staff to turn away customers with certain food allergies insists the burger kitchen's policy is "fair"
Jeff Taylor, who owns Bun X, which operates out of two pubs in Norwich, found himself facing criticism on social media after he shared an angry online review from someone who was refused service due to allergies
He said Bun X is unable to cater for anyone with a gluten, nut, soya or sesame allergy due to it operating out of a small kitchen and he believes this policy is transparent upon booking
While the business has been praised for its openness by some, Ratula Chakraborty, a professor of business management at the University of East Anglia, argues Bun X could do more to cater to allergens
In February, Bun X announced it would be changing its policy on allergens after "due diligence concluded that there is no safe way to 100% eradicate cross contamination
Taylor says the buns are handmade in a bakery that handles nuts, the oil the kitchen uses is soya bean vegetable oil and sesame seeds on the buns "cover the entire kitchen
"We are not being pedantic, we are being extremely fair" when it comes to turning people around due to cross contamination, Taylor explains to BBC Radio Norfolk
Due to the space of the kitchen, Taylor says the business had to make "tricky decisions" while abiding by the laws on serving and preparing food
In order to be transparent with customers, Taylor says upon booking with Bun X customers receive terms and conditions and a text that states the business is unable to cater to people with those allergies
The Food Standards Agency advises people with an allergy visiting a restaurant to be upfront with the eatery and make sure it is able to make the changes to suit any dietary needs
In the UK, food businesses must follow labelling laws, provide allergen information and handle food allergens effectively in food preparation
The Food Standards Agency says there are a number of actions businesses can take to avoid cross-contamination, including cleaning utensils, handwashing and storing ingredients separately
It advises if cross-contamination cannot be avoided, then customers should be informed that allergen-free dishes cannot be provided
Bun X has received a number of negative reviews on social media, TripAdvisor and Google, Taylor saysOne person wrote: "If you have a food allergy and you want to eat there, don't bother, they won't serve you. Was felt like I had a disease of something
After sharing a negative review on social media, the business received a number of supportive messages, however, it has been criticised previously for not catering to allergies
Another person with a nut allergy wrote in an online review that they were "flat out refused service" despite accepting the risk and that the restaurants rule on allergies is "not an acceptable one
Another family wrote online than upon making it known one of the party had an allergy they were refused service
As a small independent business, Taylor says: "We are just me and a team of people trying our very best trying to live up to our reputation of really good hospitality... we are doing our very best to look after everyone who walks through the door
Despite publicising that the business cannot cater for all allergens, he says people still turn up for their booking, which can cause additional pressure on staff in a "fast-paced environment
He adds: "The responsibility lies solely at my footsteps. I want to protect my team, I want to protect the guys who work very hard in a fast-paced environment, I want to protect fellow diners
Ultimately I want to protect the guys that have got these allergies we don't want a medical emergency mid-service - we don't want to put anyone through that.
"I have been to Bun X myself, it is a very fine establishment but it needs to get out of this situation of saying, 'no we can't', the bottom line is they have to cater to it.

Karogu pacelšanas solījums tos noņemt no lampāmGrupa, kas no lampām Šrewsberijā karāja Anglijas un Lielbritānijas karogus, ir piedāvājusi tos noņemt bez maksas, lai ietaupītu vietējās varas naudu
Tas notiek pēc tam, kad Šropshire padome pagājušajā nedēļā paziņoja, ka tā noņems visus karogus, kas piestiprināti tās īpašumam, un centīsies atgūt izmaksas no tiem, kuri tos uzstādīja
Pēdējoreiz, kad tas noņēma karogus, tas teica, ka tas izmaksāja apmēram £13,000, bet tagad Raise the Flags Shrewsbury Plus ir teicis, ka tas iejauksies, lai veiktu darbu, lai ietaupītu nodokļu maksātāju naudu
Šropshire padome, kas teica, ka tās jaunākā karogu noņemšanas operācija bija saistīta ar drošības bažām un nevis pret izteikumiem par patriotismu, ir lūgta sniegt atbildi

Tas notiek pēc tam, kad Šropshire padome pagājušajā nedēļā paziņoja, ka tā noņems visus karogus, kas piestiprināti tās īpašumam, un centīsies atgūt izmaksas no tiem, kuri tos uzstādīja
Pēdējoreiz, kad tas noņēma karogus, tas teica, ka tas izmaksāja apmēram £13,000, bet tagad Raise the Flags Shrewsbury Plus ir teicis, ka tas iejauksies, lai veiktu darbu, lai ietaupītu nodokļu maksātāju naudu
Šropshire padome, kas teica, ka tās jaunākā karogu noņemšanas operācija bija saistīta ar drošības bažām un nevis pret izteikumiem par patriotismu, ir lūgta sniegt atbildi

Warning over ear damage from cold water exposureSurfers, swimmers and other regular users of cold water are being urged to take precautions against ear damage.
An Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) consultant at the Royal Cornwall Hospital said she had seen an increase in cases of surfer's ear - bony growths that form to try and prevent cold water getting into the ear canal that can cause infections and hearing loss.
Aileen Lambert said she was concerned there may be more future cases due to improving wetsuits allowing people to use the water for longer, and a rise in the number of people open water swimming.
She said: "In the next 10 years or so we're going to see a big increase in the number of patients who have these bony growths in their ear."
She said: "People who take up cold water swimming which has really great health and mental health benefits, need to be aware that cold water can unfortunately have an effect on the ear canal over a long period of time."
Measures such as wearing ear plugs and a hat in case they fall out can be "really effective prevention", she added.
She said: "In 2019 we were seeing about 20 of these operations come through and that's crept up, so now we're seeing 24, 25 in a 12-month period. So about two a month might end up having an operation, but if that continues to increase that's something that we would all like to avoid just so patients don't have to go through it really."
More serious cases require an operation to remove the growths, and Lambert said a canalplasty is "not a small undertaking" and recovery of the skin afterwards can take a long time.
Karl Fice-Thomson is a surfer and marine educator from Newquay who had to have surgery after causing damage to his ears, having surfed in cold water from childhood.He said: "When you start getting water stuck in there, it stays in there, which is an absolute nightmare.
Sometimes that water gets infected, then it gives you ear infections. So towards the kind of later years in my 40s, I really started experiencing hearing loss, massive hearing loss, huge infections, chest infections all the time.
Also]nose, ear and throat infections and actually it was kind of affecting home life as well because I didn't realise how bad my hearing was."
He also wants young people and parents to be aware of the risks, and to take precautions.
It has absolutely got to be considered from a younger age. Many children that I know in our community are in surf life-saving clubs or swimming clubs," he said.
Maxine Whitbread-Abrutat goes swimming often with the Cornish Kelpies group and takes ear health seriously as part of enjoying being in the water.
She said she often wears two hats and ear plugs and it "really helps".
I just get ear ache if I get too much cold water in and I know you can get it from the pollution too."

Being filmed in my home was torturous, voyeurism victim saysA woman who was secretly filmed in her own home has said the experience has "taken over her life" and left her feeling unsafe
Lucy Domaille, from Guernsey, has waived her anonymity as the victim of a sexual offence to speak publicly about the impact voyeurism has had on her and her family
I don't sleep," she said. "Every noise, every time the door opens, you just feel like someone is watching you 24/7
It's taken over my life completely. It's consumed my mind."
In October last year, Guernsey Police told Lucy she had been the victim of voyeurism
A man she had known socially for about 25 years had secretly filmed her getting out of the shower at her home, through a gap in her curtains as he crouched outside her window.
For Lucy, the incident has occupied her every waking thought since
She said: "I'm just not the same person. It's soul-destroying, it's torturous
When you go home, that is supposed to be the place that you feel safe, and I've lost that completely," she explained.
It has also stripped her of her safety.
I'm obsessed. I don't sleep... I have lost all of that."
Lucy was walking round a supermarket when her husband called her to tell her two plain clothes officers were at their home and asking to speak to her.
She later learned she had been a victim of Kirk Bishop, whose crimes she had first seen reported in a social media post by Guernsey Police the previous month.
She said the "emotional trauma" of it meant she was "not the same person - I don't think I ever will be".
As a mother of two young children, she said it had also changed the way she interacted with them at home.
She said: "Sometimes a child gets out of a bath and they'll run down the hallway to their bedroom with no clothes on. I don't want that now.
They've taken away my children's innocence. I'm constantly making sure they're covered."
If you are changing a law based on a crime that someone has committed, surely they should be punished in line with that?" she said.
Bishop is due to be sentenced on 15 May.
Lucy concluded: "One of the best things about Guernsey was that you felt safe. I've lost all of that."

Starmers saka, ka viņš 'nepadosies' Trampa spiedienam par Irānas karuApvienotās Karalistes premjerministrs ser Keirs Starmers ir teicis, ka viņš "nepadosies" spiedienam no ASV prezidenta, lai pievienotos konfliktam Irānā.
Tas notika pēc tam, kad Donalds Tramps teica Sky News, ka, kad ASV lūdza Apvienoto Karalisti palīdzību, "viņi tur nebija". Viņš arī norādīja, ka tarifu līgums ar Apvienoto Karalisti "vienmēr var tikt mainīts".
Ser Keirs teica Parlamentā: "Es nemainīšu savu viedokli, es nepadosīšos, nav mūsu nacionālajās interesēs pievienoties šim karam un mēs to nedarīsim."
Tramps pastāvīgi ir kritizējis premjerministru pēc tam, kad viņš atteicās pievienoties uzbrukuma pasākumiem ASV un Izraēlas karā pret Irānu, kad tas sākās februāra beigās.

US justice department seeks to throw out Capitol riot convictionsThe US Department of Justice has asked a federal appeals court to throw out the convictions of 12 people who were found guilty of seditious conspiracy related to the 6 January 2021 riots
Although President Donald Trump issued more than 1,000 pardons for those convicted for their role in the Capitol riots, he opted to commute the sentences of a dozen members of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers.
That meant they could be released from prison, but their convictions remained on the record.
The United States has determined in its prosecutorial discretion that dismissal of this criminal case is in the interests of justice," the US Attorney's Ofice in Washington, DC, said in a filing on Tuesday.
The court approving the request to wipe out the convictions would mark a symbolic victory for Trump.
He pledged in his presidential campaign to free those charged or convicted for participating in the riot, where protesters sought to stop Congress from certifying that he lost the 2020 election to former President Joe Biden. On his first day back in office, Trump issued pardons or commutations for more than 1,500 people.
Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes and several members of his group were among those whose sentence was commuted.
Rhodes, a former US Army paratrooper and Yale-educated lawyer, led a contingent of his militia members to Washington. They stashed weapons in a hotel room across the Potomac River in Virginia while participating in the melee.
Rhodes did not enter the Capitol but directed his members from outside, and was sentenced in 2023 to 18 years in prison after being found guilty of seditious conspiracy, or attempting to overthrow the government.
He's among those seeking to expunge his record in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, which has set a 17 April deadline to file the requests.
If the court throws out the convictions, the Trump administration's justice department will be spared from having to argue for keeping them in that process.
While former Proud Boys leader Henry "Enrique" Tarrio was also convicted for seditious conspiracy over the riot, he was pardoned. Prior his pardon, Tarrio was sentenced to 22 years in prison.

Hospiss samazinās darba vietas un sērošanas pakalpojumusHospiss saka, ka tam nav citas izvēles kā veikt atlaišanas un izmaiņas savos pakalpojumos, ņemot vērā "nepieredzētus" finanšu spiedienus
Farleigh Hospice, kas darbojas vidējā Essex, jau sen sniedz aprūpi un atbalstu pieaugušajiem, kuri dzīvo ar dzīvību ierobežojošām slimībām un viņu ģimenēm
Bet, lai padarītu labdarību ilgtspējīgāku un ietaupītu naudu, vadītājiem bija jāizvirza 17 darba vietas riskā zaudēt darbu un jāsamazina sērošanas pakalpojumi
Mišela Kabija, hospisa izpilddirektore, teica, ka šie bija "nepieciešamie soļi", kas nepieciešami "lai nodrošinātu Farleigh nākotni gadiem ilgi"

Petīcija saka, ka Otrā pasaules kara izcelti mastus vajadzētu atstāt vietējiemOtrā pasaules kara kuģa, kas bija piepildīts ar sprāgstvielām, mastus vajadzētu saglabāt pēc to izcelšanas, saskaņā ar jaunu petīciju.
SS Richard Montgomery mastus var redzēt no Kentas un Essexas kopš 1944. gada, kad ASV militārais kuģis nogrima Thames estuārī.
Petīcija aicina, lai mastus izstāda vietēji, pēc tam kad Lielbritānijas valdība apstiprināja, ka tie tiks noņemti drošības apsvērumu dēļ, kas saistīti ar sprāgstvielām, kas palikušas avārijas vietā.
ASV valdība, kas pieder avārijas vietai, tika sazināta, lai sniegtu komentāru, kamēr Transporta departaments (DfT) teica, ka ir "pārāk agrs", lai teiktu, kas notiks ar mastiem.
Petīcija saka, ka Otrā pasaules kara izcelti mastus vajadzētu atstāt vietējiem
Otrā pasaules kara kuģa, kas bija piepildīts ar sprāgstvielām, mastus vajadzētu saglabāt pēc to izcelšanas, saskaņā ar jaunu petīciju.
SS Richard Montgomery mastus var redzēt no Kentas un Essexas kopš 1944. gada, kad ASV militārais kuģis nogrima Thames estuārī.

Friends embark on mission to help Ukraine's animalsA group of best friends are preparing to drive two ambulances filled with veterinary medical supplies to Ukraine to help animals caught in the crossfire of the war
Tobias Sullivan, Rhys Edwards, Jordan Bailey and Jake Trask, from Southend, Essex, will be embarking on the 1,829-mile (2,943km) trip in aid of Animal Rescue Kharkiv
The front-line organisation strives to save all types of animals left wounded or abandoned due to the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia
The group of friends will deliver the supplies in two, bright yellow and green emergency vehicles, which they bought for £3,500, before getting a train and a plane back home
Trask, 33, said he was initially "really nervous" about travelling to Ukraine, but was reassured by the "good team of people" around him
"We are in safe hands, we are mentally prepared for it, and we are smart and savvy, so it's just about having our wits about us when we're out there," he said
The ambitious excursion to Ukraine, for which the group has raised nearly £9,000, will begin on Tuesday night and take the four friends about four days
The group plan to get a ferry to Calais and then drive to Berlin and then Warsaw, before crossing into Ukraine and being escorted to Kyiv and Kharkiv
The "old friends from back in the day" will then hand over the ambulances, which will be "full to the brim" with everything from bandages and syringes to food and toys
The group will then get a train from Ukraine to Poland before boarding a plane to the UK.
According to Trask, Animal Rescue Kharkiv supports cats, dogs, fish, lions, tigers, but its mission has become increasingly difficult due to drone attacks.
It is just horrendous and so horrible, and a lot of the animals don't know what's going on - they're very dazed and confused," he added.
These vets are going into these rubble-style homes where dogs are clinging onto the last bit of bedding and toys to try and get by - they're really scared
"But they still need to be kept happy," he said

South Africa names apartheid-era politician as new ambassador to the USSouth Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa has appointed Roelf Meyer, who served in the last government of the apartheid era, as his new ambassador to the US, his office has said.
The country has not had a top envoy in the US since Ebrahim Rasool was expelled last year after he accused President Donald Trump of trying to "project white victimhood as a dog whistle".
This worsened already strained relations between the nations, which took a downward spiral after Trump's return to office last year.
Ramaphosa's spokesperson Vincent Magwenya confirmed Meyer's appointment to the BBC, saying it would be "immediate".
"I can confirm that President Cyril Ramaphosa has appointed Meyer as South Africa's ambassador to the US," he said
Meyer, 78, played a key role as one of the chief mediators, alongside Ramaphosa, during the talks to end the racist system of white-minority rule known as apartheid in South Africa in the 1990s
He was the chief representative of the National Party (NP), which introduced apartheid, while Ramaphosa represented the African National Congress led by Nelson Mandela.
Meyer was constitutional affairs minister in the last NP government and went on to join the government of national unity formed in 1994 when Mandela became president

Italy suspends defence agreement with IsraelItaly will not renew its defence agreement with Israel, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has said.
Meloni said her government had decided to suspend the renewal, which happens every five years, "in view of the current situation", without offering specifics.
Relations between Rome and Tel Aviv, which have historically been solid, have recently soured.
Last week, Italy summoned the Israeli ambassador to Rome after warning shots were fired by Israeli forces at a convoy of Italian UN peacekeepers in Lebanon, damaging one vehicle but causing no injuries.
On Monday, Israel in turn summoned Italy's ambassador to protest comments by Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani, who had condemned Israel's "unacceptable attacks" on civilians in Lebanon.
Defence ministry officials told the BBC they were still examining how the government's position would translate into concrete legal and practical consequences on the framework of Italian cooperation with Israel.
Italy is the third-biggest arms exporter to Israel, according to figures from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (Sipri). But that still only accounts for 1.3% of Israeli arms imports between 2021-2025. The US and Germany are the top exporters.
Several European countries paused or restricted arms exports with Israel during its military action in Gaza.
The offensive was triggered by the Hamas-led attack on Israel on 7 October 2023, which killed about 1,200 people, while 251 others were taken to Gaza as hostages.
More than 72,330 people were then killed by Israeli military action Gaza - including 757 since the ceasefire began on 10 October 2025 - according to the territory's Hamas-run health ministry.
Over the past few years, many Italians have asked their government to do the same, with hundreds of thousands have taking to the streets or going on strike in protest.
Yet Meloni's right-wing coalition government has remained one of Israel's closest allies in Europe, refusing to join the growing number of countries recognising Palestinian statehood.
But in late March, her camp lost a referendum on a judicial constitutional reform, which many interpreted as a vote on her government's popularity - not least in terms of its relations with Israel and the US.
With only 18 months to go before the next general election, Meloni has been tweaking her rhetoric in order to distance herself from these associations, which are becoming increasingly unpopular among the Italian electorate.
Since the referendum result, she has described the US-Israeli war with Iran as part of a growing and dangerous trend of interventions "outside the scope of international law".
On Monday, she issued a rare criticism of Donald Trump, describing the US president's disparaging comments about Pope Leo XIV as "unacceptable". She later added that the pontiff had her "solidarity".
That led to a swift rebuke from Trump, who told Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera that he was "shocked at her".
I thought she had courage, but I was wrong," he said, adding Meloni "does not care whether Iran has a nuclear weapon and would blow Italy up in two minutes if it had the chance
Meloni may be hoping the first cracks in the Italy-US relationship will help her claw back votes as next year's general election approaches
At one point, Trump's evident sympathy for Meloni appeared to have earned her special recognition as a potential privileged interlocutor among EU countries, and was touted by her supporters as an asset
But now, with Trump becoming an increasingly unpopular figure, that association risks being damaging. In January, a survey showed 63% of the Italian electorate holds a negative opinion of the US
Following Trump's comments, Meloni's allies rushed to her defence. Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani said on X that Italy's alliance with the US was "built on mutual loyalty, respect, and honesty
"And on Pope Leo XIV she said exactly what all of us Italians think. The prime minister and the government defend and will always defend only and solely the interests of Italy," Tajani said.
"Being allies does not mean accepting everything in silence, but having the courage to clearly state what one believes to be right," defence minister Guido Crosetto said

Rakuten to allow XRP to be used as payment method by its 44 million customersRakuten Pay users will also be able to spot trade XRP via the Rakuten Pay app and exchange the Japanese e-commerce giant’s points to purchase Ripple’s token
The move ties XRP into one of Japan’s largest loyalty systems, where more than 3 trillion points—worth roughly $23 billion—are in circulation and can now be converted into XRP, Kohrogi said.
Starting April 15, Rakuten Wallet will launch XRP as both a listed asset and a payment method, meaning users can buy XRP directly with Rakuten Points and charge their Rakuten Cash with XRP to spend it at over 5 million merchant locations across Japan,” Kohrogi said, calling the development “one of the most significant XRP milestones.”
The Ripple executive also said Rakuten is one of Japan's most trusted consumer brands. “The fact that XRP is now embedded into its loyalty and payments infrastructure is a powerful signal of where digital asset adoption is heading,” he added.
Rakuten began allowing users to spend bitcoin, ether and bitcoin cash in 2023. In 2021, the Japanese e-commerce giant announced the launch of its own Rakuten Coin, a token it said would be used as part of its points-based loyalty rewards system.

🕊️... Liels atjauninājums: Vēsturiska brīža notikums globālai mieram‼️
Šodien mēs redzam kaut ko, kas nav noticis 34 gadus. Prezidents Tramps tikko paziņoja, ka Izraēlas un Libānas līderi rīt plāno runāt tieši viens ar otru.
Ja jūs domājat, kāpēc tas ir svarīgi mums kripto un finansu pasaulē, šeit ir vienkāršs skaidrojums:
1. "Riska" samazināšana tirgū
Kad ir karš vai spriedze, investori baidās. Viņi bieži pārdod "riskantas" aktīvus, piemēram, Bitcoin, un pērk zeltu. Kad līderi sāk runāt, šī bailes izzūd. Tas rada "Riska" vidi, kas parasti ir ļoti veselīga kripto tirgum.
2. Otrais raunds Islamabadā
Tas nav tikai par divām valstīm. Šis telefona zvans notiek kritiskā laikā, jo amatpersonas smagi strādā, lai organizētu otro ASV-Irānas miera sarunu raundu Islamabadā. Pirmais raunds bija nozīmīgs solis, un otrais raunds var novest pie nopietna reģionālās spriedzes samazinājuma. Tas ir tieši tas, no kā sastāv "atvieglojuma rallijs"!
3. Zelts & Eļļa pret Bitcoin
Eļļa $BZ : Parasti samazinās, kad miers ir tuvu, jo piegādes līnijas šķiet drošākas.
Bitcoin $BTC : Bieži pieaug, kad pasaule jūtas stabilāka un globālā tirdzniecība izskatās labāk.
Vienmēr sekojiet lielām ziņām, piemēram, šai. Tas nav tikai par tehniskajiem grafikiem; tas ir par to, kā pasaule jūtas. Mierīgāka pasaule parasti nozīmē pārliecinošāku tirgu 📈.
Vai jūs esat optimistiski par šo ziņu?? Redzēsim, kas notiks, kad šīs sarunas virzīsies uz priekšu!...
