A historic rise in global conflict deaths suggests a violent new era (Washington Post) More than 238,000 people died in global conflict last year, according to a new study released Tuesday, marking a massive 96 percent increase year over year in deaths related to conflicts. The startling figure, found in the Institute for Economics and Peace’s annual Global Peace Index, reflects, in particular, the impact of two highly deadly wars: in Ethiopia and Ukraine. The report also found that there had been startling increases in conflict deaths in a variety of countries, including Mali and Myanmar. What’s particularly worrying about this latest figure, however, is the trend line. The Sydney-based Institute for Economics and Peace has been producing the peace index since 2009. Its index, which ranks countries based on their peacefulness, has found rising levels of conflict around the world in 13 of the last 15 years. But the rising number of conflict deaths is just one of the signals of a bloody new era. The number of countries involved in some kind of conflict outside of their borders had risen from 58 in 2008 to 91 in 2022.

Day Care for Less Than $10: How Canada Is Easing the Burden for Parents (NYT) As Susana Ibarra’s maternity leave was ending and she was preparing to return to her office outside Toronto, she still faced a big challenge: finding care for her son and then figuring out how to pay for it. Finally, after putting him on a dozen or so waiting lists, she landed a spot. Even better, it came at a discounted fee of 600 Canadian dollars, or $450, a month. The low cost was the result of an ambitious day care plan expanding across Canada, intended to drastically cut fees that supporters say will address one of the most vexing problems facing many working parents. The national day care plan was introduced two years ago by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government with a goal of steadily pushing down child care costs so that, by 2026, tens of thousands of child care slots would be available at daily fees of 10 Canadian dollars, roughly 200 dollars a month, or less. By comparison, in large urban areas like Toronto or Vancouver, day care can cost 1,200 Canadian dollars or more per month, or about 60 dollars a day.

11 people have died in rip currents in less than two weeks along Gulf Coast (CNN) Rip currents have claimed the lives of 11 people within two weeks along the Gulf Coast, amid warnings from officials about the hazardous water conditions, according to preliminary data from the National Weather Service. The deaths have spanned the Gulf of Mexico between Fort Morgan, Alabama, and Panama City Beach, Florida, the weather service said. A rip current is “a relatively small-scale surf-zone current,” according to the weather service. It forms as waves disperse across the beach, “causing water to become trapped between the beach and a sandbar or other underwater feature” so, “the water converges into a narrow, river-like channel moving away from the shore at high speed.” Rip currents were the third-leading cause of weather fatalities from 2013 to 2023, data shows, killing on average more people than lightning, tornadoes or hurricanes.

Food in France and Italy? ‘Not that great,’ Brazil’s president grouses. (Washington Post) France, the land of fine wine and delicately aged cheese. Italy, where the risotto is as creamy as the tiramisu. Both countries are known the world over for the quality of their food—and the passion and know-how of the people who make it. To the president of Brazil? The food in both places was “not that great.” Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva said he rarely eats well abroad. His apparently serious complaints about “palace food” abroad echoed the old joke: The food is terrible and the portions are too small. “Everything is very sophisticated, and, sometimes, we don’t even know what it is,” he said during an interview with a Brazilian journalist Tuesday. Brazilian food is typically heartier and served in bigger portions than Western European food. French amuse-bouches and Italian antipasti are dwarfed by the typical Brazilian dish of beef, rice and beans. Brazilian barbecue restaurants known as churrascarias often serve all-you-can-eat grilled meats. Lula praised traditional Brazilian home cooking. “I can travel to the entire world, I can eat around the world, but when I come home, to eat a bit of [beans] with rice, a steak and two fried eggs, for me, it’s the best dish in the world.”

One in seven Britons faced hunger in 2022, says food bank charity (Reuters) One in seven people in the United Kingdom faced hunger last year because they did not have enough money, according to a report published on Wednesday by food bank charity the Trussell Trust. It said this equates to 11.3 million people, more than double the population of Scotland, and blamed a dysfunctional social security system, as well as a cost of living crisis that is showing little sign of easing. Britain is the world’s sixth-biggest economy but its citizens have been pressured for more than a year by high inflation which has outstripped pay growth for almost all workers. Government forecasters estimate UK households are in the midst of the biggest two-year squeeze in living standards since comparable records started in the 1950s.

600 arrested and 200 police officers hurt on France’s 3rd night of protests over teen’s killing (AP) Protesters erected barricades, lit fires and shot fireworks at police in French streets overnight as tensions grew over the deadly police shooting of a 17-year-old that has shocked the nation. More than 600 people were arrested and at least 200 police officers injured as the government struggled to restore order on a third night of unrest. Armored police vehicles rammed through the charred remains of cars that had been flipped and set ablaze in the northwestern Paris suburb of Nanterre, where a police officer shot the teen identified only by his first name, Nahel. On the other side of Paris, protesters lit a fire at the city hall of the suburb of Clichy-sous-Bois and set a bus depot ablaze in Aubervilliers. The French capital also saw fires and some stores ransacked. Some 40,000 police officers were deployed to quell the protests, which are partly against police brutality. Thirteen people were shot at traffic stops last year.

Putin’s standing as global strongman in jeopardy after revolt (Washington Post) Over the past decade, President Vladimir Putin has won friends and admirers worldwide as the embodiment of a strongman, using military interventions in the Middle East and Africa to restore Russia’s role as a world power and promoting himself as an authoritarian alternative to the United States and the West. The weekend mutiny by the Wagner Group and its chaotic aftermath have jeopardized that image, jolting many assumptions about Putin’s autocratic credentials, Russia’s stability and the likely course of the war in Ukraine. With events continuing to unfold, it is still too early to tell how badly Putin has been weakened, analysts caution. The Wagner Group could be dismantled and its leader, Yevgeniy Prigozhin, now in exile in neighboring Belarus, could end up detained or killed. Putin may yet launch a broad crackdown against all his critics that could leave him more firmly in control than he was before. But the Russian leader’s failure so far to take a tough stance against the mercenaries, or punish those involved in the mutiny, is denting the cultivated image that he always controls events—something the Kremlin projected to the wider world, as well as in Russia, said Dmitri Alperovitch, a foreign-policy analyst who heads the Silverado Policy Accelerator think tank. “Many of Putin’s supporters are quite confused and wondering about his ability to be the strong leader and strong authoritarian dictator he portrays himself to be.”

Surovikin detained (Foreign Policy) Russian Gen. Sergey Surovikin, a former top commander of Russian forces in Ukraine, has been detained in the wake of the Wagner Group’s failed weekend mutiny, led by the organization’s chief, Yevgeny Prigozhin. Surovikin, known as “General Armageddon,” was a senior military commander in the country’s invasion of Ukraine, and hasn’t been seen in public since the mutiny. According to the New York Times, he knew the mutiny was coming.

China’s Workers and the Curse of 35 (NYT) When Sean Liang turned 30, he started thinking of the Curse of 35—the widespread belief in China that white-collar workers like him confront unavoidable job insecurity after they hit that age. In the eyes of employers, the Curse goes, they’re more expensive than new graduates and not as willing to work overtime. Mr. Liang, now 38, is a technology support professional turned personal trainer. He has been unemployed for much of the past three years, partly because of the pandemic and China’s sagging economy. But he believes the main reason is his age. He’s too old for many employers, including the Chinese government, which caps the hiring age for most civil servant positions at 35. If the Curse of 35 is a legend, it’s one supported by some facts. There’s no doubt that the job market is weak and that age discrimination, which is not against the law in China, is prevalent. That is a double whammy for workers in their mid-30s who are making big decisions about career, marriage and children. “Too old to work at 35 and too young to retire,” said a viral online post.

Recruitment of children by armed groups in Syria is on the rise, even as fighting subsides (AP) A 13-year-old Kurdish girl went missing on her way home from a school exam last month, after being approached by a man from an armed group. Her parents immediately feared the worst—that she had been persuaded to join the group and was taken to one of its training camps. The girl, Peyal Aqil, was with friends when she encountered the man who turned out to be a recruiter for a group known as the Revolutionary Youth. She followed him to one of the group’s centers in the city of Qamishli in northeast Syria. Her friends waited for her outside, but she never emerged. Peyal’s mother, Hamrin Alouji, said she and her husband complained to local authorities, to no avail. Armed groups have recruited children throughout the past 12 years of conflict and civil war in Syria. A new United Nations report on children in armed conflict, released Tuesday, says the use of child soldiers in Syria is growing, even as fighting in most parts of Syria is winding down. The number of children recruited by armed groups in Syria has risen steadily over the past three years—from 813 in 2020 to 1,296 in 2021 and 1,696 in 2022, the U.N. says.

Barred From Grocery Stores by Facial Recognition (NYT) Simon Mackenzie, a security officer at the discount retailer QD Stores outside London, was short of breath. He had just chased after three shoplifters who had taken off with several packages of laundry soap. Before the police arrived, he sat at a backroom desk to do something important: Capture the culprits’ faces. On an aging desktop computer, he pulled up security camera footage, pausing to zoom in and save a photo of each thief. He then logged in to a facial recognition program, Facewatch, which his store uses to identify shoplifters. The next time those people enter any shop within a few miles that uses Facewatch, store staff will receive an alert. “It’s like having somebody with you saying, ‘That person you bagged last week just came back in,’” Mackenzie said. Use of facial recognition technology by police has been heavily scrutinized in recent years, but its application by private businesses has received less attention. Now, as the technology improves and its cost falls, the systems are reaching further into people’s lives. No longer just the purview of government agencies, facial recognition is increasingly being deployed to identify shoplifters, problematic customers and legal adversaries.
