Floods ravage villages, leaving thousands displaced in makeshift shelters with little aid. At just 20 days old, Muhammad Hafidz has already endured extraordinary hardship. He and his family are among hundreds of thousands displaced by devastating floods in Aceh Tamiang, where local authorities report all 300,000 residents have been affected by the disaster. Environmental groups attribute the severity to widespread deforestation, which has resulted in entire villages being washed away.

PA Media Princess Beatrice has said premature birth can be "incredibly lonely", as she reflected on her own experience for a podcast ahead of World Prematurity Day. Her words are part of a campaign for premature birth research charity Borne, of which she became a patron months after her daughter was born several weeks early. "I think so often, especially as mums, we spend our lives, you know, feeling we have to be perfect to do this," Beatrice told the podcast.
