This week’s top stories of the week include:
0:13 – 5 Crucial Facts About the Strait of Hormuz: Why are people talking so much about this one small waterway – and how important is it really to the global economy? Our video primer reveals all – from the critical importance of the Strait of Hormuz to oil, gas and commodities trades, to how long the economic disruption could potentially last.
02:16 – Earth Photos from Artemis II: On Monday, the NASA-led mission Artemis II reached 406,788km from Earth – the furthest that humans have ever been in space. The mission took astronauts around the dark side of the Moon, and broke a 56-year-old record held by Apollo 13.
04:20 – Saving Kids From Stunting: In Indonesia, stunting affects 1 in 5 young children, limiting physical growth and cognitive development – with lifelong consequences. While chronic malnutrition is a major contributor, the causes are complex and go far beyond access to nutritious food. Not-for-profit organization 1000DaysFund is working to address this challenge by training and supporting frontline community health workers in rural communities across Indonesia.
