Using dead leaves rather than healthy trees to make paper: that's the idea behind Ukrainian startup Releaf Paper.
While still at school, founder Valentyn Frechka used his passion for biochemistry to find new ways to make cellulose, the key ingredient in paper.
After a failed experiment with grass and straw, he discovered that it was possible to extract fibre from leaves.

With all eyes on Gaza, Israel expands its seizure of Palestinian land in the West Bank, announcing the biggest land grab for the settlers in more than 30 years. The endeavor is spearheaded by Israel’s far-right finance minister, Bezalel Smotrich, who himself is living in a settlement built on stolen Palestinian Lands.
Smotrich, who became in charge of the planning procedures in the West Bank, took that rule, which the minister of defense handled before June 2023. Israel has built more than 160 settlements with more than 700,000 settlers living in it, in the Bank and East Jerusalem, killing any future for a Palestinian state.
In March 2023, a report by UN Human Rights Chief Volker Türk stated that Israel’s continuous expansion of settlements amounts to the transfer by Israel of its own civilian population into the territories that it occupies, which amounts to a war crime under international law.

Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have gained control of large parts of the eastern state of Sennar and are preparing to attack the Blue Nile state. This comes after they recently captured the city of Dinder. As the RSF continues to advance, people are fleeing in search of safety. Reports of looting and civilian attacks by the RSF continue to emerge.
The Sudan conflict has only gotten worse since it started in April 2023. Over 17,000 people have been killed since then, while 7.7 million people have been internally displaced and 16.4 million children alone are facing starvation.
