Bullet holes are still visible on the building of the former luxury Ledra Palace hotel inside the buffer zone, which is now being used by the UN, in Nicosia, Cyprus, on July 20, 2024. The Green Line (or buffer zone) is separating the island since 1963 as an initial measure to prevent hostilities between Greek-Cypriots and Turkish-Cypriots, but since the Turkish invasion in 1974, it is functioning as a de facto border between the Republic of Cyprus and the self-declared ''Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus,'' which only Turkey recognizes as a legitimate state.

In the forest, there is a plastic packet of food thrown by careless individuals stuck in a tree, which turns into a trap. Wild Indian myna or common myna (Acridotheres tristis) birds are trying to tear the plastic and eat the food, sometimes getting their beaks stuck in the plastic hole. This incident occurred on World Forestry Day at Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on March 21, 2024. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization has been celebrating World Forestry Day since 1971 to raise awareness about the importance of trees. Celebrated on March 21, it highlights the importance of forests in our lives. The 2024 theme, "Forests and Innovation: New Solutions for a Better World," emphasizes the need for innovative approaches to address global challenges such as climate change and biodiversity loss. Besides unsustainable management practices, airborne pollution, and climate change, forests are also threatened by fragmentation due to rapidly spreading urban areas, plastics, and transport networks. The healthy functioning of forest ecosystems and the biodiversity they foster are at risk.
