Saudi Arabia citizen has married more than 50 times
At first, Abdullah's intentions for marriage were good, he 'was looking for stability'. But after the first wife, something went wrong. He says that was the beginning of the problems, but doesn't specify what they were. Since then he has walked down the aisle 52 more times.
His first marriage turned out to be almost the longest – 3 years. It was followed by a second, a third, and so on, and the shortest of them lasted less than a day. Most of his marriages were with Saudi women, although he also married a foreign women when he travelled outside the Kingdom for his own work. That one lasted 3-4 months. It is not yet known whether the polygamist intends to stop in his search. Let's wish him a luck, and maybe one day he will find a woman who will make him happy.

'Our employer doesn’t want pregnant women or responsibility for babies and workers’, says factory worker Roth from Cambodia. She’s one of hundreds of women who has to hide their pregnancy so as not to be fired.
Many female workers in Cambodia can earn $100-200 per month toiling in factories. ‘Don’t work if you don’t want to, we’ll just stop paying you’, Roth says, reciting the words of the company’s representatives.
On Cambodia's Constitution Day, watch our video and documentary Stitched up in Cambodia.

Footsteps of the Amur Tiger
The Siberian tiger is known as the 'spirit of the forest ' in China, and they're the largest of the wildcats. They are also solitary creatures, which means that each animal needs its own territory spanning hundreds to thousands of kilometres to hunt.
Also of interest is that the tiger is the only species able to live in the harsh conditions of the far north.
By the middle of the twentieth century there were only about 30 of these animals left in the world. The main reasons for the sharp decline in their number are poaching and the deforestation of their natural habitats. The predator was listed in the Red Book of animals on the verge of extinction. But now its population is recovering.
What measures are being taken to save these amazing animals? Find out in our film In the Footsteps of the Amur Tiger.

Would you go on a gastronomic tour? To China, for example. There you can find really exotic food on the street stalls: scorpion kebab, fried grasshoppers, dried silkworms.
Today, the Chinese prefer rather conventional dishes. Grasshoppers and cockroaches today are more of a delicacy than part of a daily diet. The Chinese eat pork, beef, chicken with different sauces. They also like noodles and fried rice. Watch our video and the China on a plate documentary (2019).

These children work as hard as adults.
At the brick factories in Afghanistan, the youngest are five years old. Despite their age, they all carry jerry cans of water, pour the clay into wooden molds and wait for the bricks to dry. Carts take them to the kilns for firing and then pick up the finished bricks. In the smoldering coal, children look for pieces that can be reused. Sometimes they burn their fingers.
There is a food crisis in Afghanistan. Even children have to work around the clock to earn some money for food. They don't know what toys are, and few have ever gone to school.
Children from Bangladesh also go to work in brick factories with adults. It is unhealthy, but brick-making is almost their only source of income. Our documentary Brick Slaves discusses this dire situation. Watch it here.

Footage shows Philippine residents, half in water, attempting to negotiate flooded streets due to typhoon Noru.
Dozens of villages have been submerged under water, and entire provinces have lost electricity. According to authorities, more than 52,000 locals were moved to emergency shelters. Several provinces and cities, including the capital Manila, suspended classes and government work.
Among the victims were five rescuers who were using a boat to help residents trapped in floodwaters. They were hit by a collapsed wall and apparently drowned in the rampaging waters. ‘They were living heroes who were helping save the lives of our countrymen in the calamity. This is really sad,’ said Gov. Daniel Fernando of Bulacan province.
Noru is the most powerful typhoon to hit the country this year. With sustained winds of 121 miles per hour in some areas and strong gusts, forecasters say it's expected to weaken slightly, but will remain dangerously ferocious.

Diving for Gold
The Philippines is considered one of the world’s most disaster-prone countries. About 20 storms and typhoons batter it each year. Also, the archipelago lies in the ‘Pacific Ring of Fire,’ where many volcanic eruptions and earthquakes occur.
Although the locals live in extreme conditions, they can hardly leave the place. The job market is utterly poor. One of the very few opportunities for making money is diving for gold in the local Klondike. The workers face immense risks to their lives when diving: ‘We saw a man who hit his head on a rock and died,’ says one of the gold prospectors in the Philippines.
The inherent risks of the work have not stopped people as they can earn at least some money, enough for a daily serving of food. A common dream for all of the workers is to save something for their children’s education, so they don’t have the same fate as their parents.
Discover more about the Philippines and its life in our documentary Diving for Gold.

Biden Urges Gas Station Owners to Lower Fuel Prices
‘The companies running gas stations – bring down the prices that you’re charging. Do it now, do it now.’ US President Joe Biden warns gas companies at a meeting of the White House Competition Council to lower the prices they are charging to consumers.
The anti-Russian sanctions, which the US imposed right at the beginning of the special military operation have ricocheted against the country itself. For almost 7 months gas prices have been on the rise and are almost unaffordable for many Americans. The cost for food has skyrocketed as well.
Watch our documentary where military analysts and experts explain why and how sanctions target those countries that impose them. Listen to the interviews and see the statistics in Sanctions: Boomerang Effect.

By the middle of the 20th century, there were only 20-30 Amur tigers left in the world. They almost disappeared due to poaching and deforestation. The endangered animals are listed in the Red Books of Russia and of the world.
Now the population of these striped cats is making a comeback. Today, there are about 750 of them in Russia. Specially protected natural areas have been created for them in the Far East.
In China, killing a tiger can bring five to ten years in prison and a hefty fine. The country has created a huge national park on the border with Russia. Only a few dozen animals live there, some of whom are just guests. They constantly cross the border to Russia and return.
Watch our video about the striped cats. For more details, see our documentary In a Siberian Tiger's Footsteps.
