Kate Adie presents stories from Gaza, Indian-administered Kashmir, Pakistan, Eswatini and Italy.

Amid a deteriorating situation in Gaza, as Israel continues its bombardment and the blockade of aid, some Palestinian children are being evacuated to Jordan for medical treatment. As Fergal Keane travelled with two young cancer patients, he reflects on a week of haunting images and words.

A recent attack by militants in Indian-administered Kashmir saw direct military action between India and Pakistan for the first time in six years. And although a ceasefire was agreed, nerves have been shattered in the region, as Aamir Peerzada discovered from the Indian-administered side of the Line of Control.

Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif declared a ‘Day of the Battle of Truth’ to commemorate the country’s self-proclaimed victory in the latest confrontation with India. Azadeh Moshiri reports from Pakistan on the army’s efforts to regain public confidence through social media.

The landlocked Kingdom of Eswatini is one of the last remaining absolute monarchies in the world. But critics have accused King Mswati III of repressing political opposition. In 2021, several dozen people were killed during weeks of pro-democracy protests. Tim Hartley went to a football match to gauge the mood among protesters today.

Popular tourist cities around the world are keeping a watchful eye on Venice’s experimental access fee – a ticket into the city that’s meant to deter day-trippers. But this new initiative is being met with mixed reviews by locals, as Simon Busch discovered.
