Every year, between December and April, northerly winds create a rising current in the deep waters of the Gulf of Panama. This upwelling brings cold, nutrient-rich waters to the surface, protecting vulnerable coral reefs and triggering an explosion of ocean life. However, researchers now say the Panama Pacific upwelling has failed for the first time in over 40 years of records - and it could be a permanent change.

The bright meteor was witnessed by some Scots as it streaked across the sky in the early hours of Thursday July 3. It is believed to have exploded over northern Scotland, with the'fall zone' straddling Loch Treig in Lochaber, Highland. The aerial event was captured on some cameras and shared on social media, showing a big yellow spark soaring through the dark sky.

How is Russia replenishing its military? What is a'coalition of the willing'? How China forgot promises and'debts' to Ukraine How are Europe, the US pulling apart on Ukraine? Russia and Belarus have begun large-scale military exercises, raising alarm across NATO's eastern flank just days after Warsaw accused Moscow of sending attack drones across Polish airspace, a major escalation that sent shivers through Europe. The Zapad 2025 manoeuvres, which run from Friday until Tuesday, are taking place as Russian forces continue their slow advance in Ukraine and intensify air attacks on Ukrainian cities.

How is Russia replenishing its military? What is a'coalition of the willing'? How China forgot promises and'debts' to Ukraine How are Europe, the US pulling apart on Ukraine? Anti-aircraft units downed seven Ukrainian drones headed for Moscow early on Friday, according to the Russian capital's mayor Sergei Sobyanin. Russian forces have taken control of the settlement of Sosnivka in Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region, Russia's Defence Ministry said on Thursday.

The FBI has released new footage showing the suspect in the killing of US activist Charlie Kirk running across a roof - from where the fatal shot was fired - before dropping to the ground and crossing a road. As the authorities continue their search, BBC Verify's Nick Beake has been looking at the footage and what we know about his escape. Watch: Key moments from RFK Jr's heated Senate hearing The US health secretary faced questions on Covid deaths and vaccines a week after firing the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The group said they are making their own list of Jeffrey Epstein's associates and called for the release of all files related to the investigation. The molten magma streamed down one of the world's most active volcanoes and put on another fiery show on the Island of Hawaii.

'Looks like a toy, but it's real': BBC examines a downed Russian drone At least three Russian drones were shot down in Poland's airspace during attacks on Ukraine, the Polish prime minister said on Wednesday. The BBC's Sarah Rainsford has been looking at the exact type of Russian drone that flew into Poland, and is proving a massive challenge for Ukraine's territorial defence forces. The BBC's Sarah Rainsford says Sunday's attack caused a huge amount of damage. One of Kyiv's main government buildings was hit in overnight missile and drone strikes by Russia. 'The hit was very hard': Eyewitness in second carriage shares video of crash moment The incident in Lisbon's funicular has left 16 dead and multiple injured.

Utah authorities have released CCTV footage showing the Charlie Kirk shooting suspect fleeing the scene at Utah Valley University. The video shows a figure dressed in black running across a roof before dropping down to the ground and fleeing towards a wooded area. Authorities say the suspect was wearing Converse shoes, sunglasses and a distinctive black T-shirt with an American flag and an eagle.

Verbal autopsy (VA) is a critical tool for estimating causes of death in resource-limited settings where medical certification is unavailable. This study presents LA-VA, a proof-of-concept pipeline that combines Large Language Models (LLMs) with traditional algorithmic approaches and embedding-based classification for improved cause-of-death prediction. Using the Population Health Metrics Research Consortium (PHMRC) dataset across three age categories (Adult: 7,580; Child: 1,960; Neonate: 2,438), we evaluate multiple approaches: GPT-5 predictions, LCVA baseline, text embed-dings, and meta-learner ensembles. Our results demonstrate that GPT-5 achieves the highest individual performance with average test site accuracies of 48.6% (Adult), 50.5% (Child), and 53.5% (Neonate), outperforming traditional statistical machine learning baselines by 5-10%. Our findings suggest that simple off-the-shelf LLM-assisted approaches could substantially improve verbal autopsy accuracy, with important implications for global health surveillance in low-resource settings.

Gliomas are the most prevalent type of primary brain tumors, and their accurate segmentation from MRI is critical for diagnosis, treatment planning, and longitudinal monitoring. However, the scarcity of high-quality annotated imaging data in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) poses a significant challenge for deploying advanced segmentation models in clinical workflows. This study introduces a robust and computationally efficient deep learning framework tailored for resource-constrained settings. We leveraged a 3D Attention UNet architecture augmented with residual blocks and enhanced through transfer learning from pre-trained weights on the BraTS 2021 dataset. Our model was evaluated on 95 MRI cases from the BraTS-Africa dataset, a benchmark for glioma segmentation in SSA MRI data. Despite the limited data quality and quantity, our approach achieved Dice scores of 0.76 for the Enhancing Tumor (ET), 0.80 for Necrotic and Non-Enhancing Tumor Core (NETC), and 0.85 for Surrounding Non-Functional Hemisphere (SNFH). These results demonstrate the generalizability of the proposed model and its potential to support clinical decision making in low-resource settings. The compact architecture, approximately 90 MB, and sub-minute per-volume inference time on consumer-grade hardware further underscore its practicality for deployment in SSA health systems. This work contributes toward closing the gap in equitable AI for global health by empowering underserved regions with high-performing and accessible medical imaging solutions.

Don't worry too much about planet-warming emissions, the US Energy Secretary has told the BBC, because within five years AI will have enabled the harnessing of nuclear fusion - the energy that powers the sun and stars. Chris Wright told me in an interview that he expected the technology to deliver power to electricity grids around the world within eight to 15 years and that it would rapidly become a big driver of greenhouse gas reductions. His claims will likely surprise even enthusiasts for the technology. Harnessing the energy released when atoms fuse together could produce vast amounts of low carbon energy but most scientists believe commercial fusion power plants are still a long way off. With artificial intelligence and what's going on at the national labs and private companies in the United States, we will have that approach about how to harness fusion energy multiple ways within the next five years, said Mr Wright.
