UK urges Russia to free opposition leader Alexei Navalny: Russia sentences Navalny to 19 more years, UK urges release, Red Cross highlights ongoing Syrian-Turkish earthquake crisis, only 8% of UK's 2.6 million ADHD population receive treatment, crocodiles can't extend their tongues, short-term health insurance options available in certain states
The UK is urging Russia to free opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who was sentenced to 19 more years in prison on extremism charges related to his foundation's anti-corruption work. Navalny's ally and colleague, Vladimir Ashokov, believes the Russian regime is insecure and trying to intimidate its population with such sentences. Elsewhere, the Red Cross emphasizes the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Syria and Turkey following earthquakes six months ago, with tens of thousands killed and millions left homeless. The recovery process has been challenging, with volunteers numbering over 200,000. In the UK, there's concern about the lack of support for people with ADHD, with only 8% receiving prescriptions for treatment despite an estimated 2.6 million diagnosed. The government has pledged to help, but campaigners say more is needed. A surprising fact, a crocodile cannot extend its tongue. Lastly, it's worth noting that health insurance options exist for varying durations, such as a month or less than a year, in certain states.
