Terrifying footage shows a flash flood sweeping through the Nepal–Tibet border, trapping people on rooftops and balconies. At least 469 have been killed, with hundreds still missing.
A round of a-paws for our four-legged friends, because today is International Dog Day! 🐾❤️
🦮 From Medical Detection Dogs and Guide Dogs, to dogs on the set of ‘Rivals’ and in the gardens of Buckingham Palace and Holyroodhouse… 🐩 Here are just a few of the many wagging tails we’ve met on Royal visits this year.
The dog’s goal wasn’t to sleep next to the baby.
It had a very different plan; to slowly scheme and steal both the pillow and the entire sleeping spot. 😂

Two years on, we've delivered real change across the country. From putting more money in people's pockets, to improving public services and making communities safer.
Here's a look at what we've achieved so far👇
Another huge weekend of sport in the capital.
🏏 Friday: @thehundred Eliminators at the Kia Oval
🏎️ All weekend: @FIAFormulaE's season finale at ExCeL London
From world-class cricket to the world’s only indoor-outdoor Formula E circuit, there’s nowhere quite like London for live sport.
Record-breaking heatwaves. Flash floods. Accelerating extinctions.
Climate change deniers will tell you that this is the normal order of the world. But should burnt, brittle and brown fields be normal? Extreme temperatures in our own homes? Species of wildlife disappearing because of human activity? Of course not.
We have the answers - we’ve had them for decades. National governments must choose action over apathy and commit to delivering Net Zero, reducing our reliance on oil and gas, and investing in the large-scale green projects we urgently need to cut emissions, adapt to extreme heat, and protect communities from flooding and wildfires.
That’s the choice to be made - not just here, but all around the world.
