Relatives of Mexico’s disappeared took to the streets yesterday for a Mother’s Day march, calling on authorities to do more to deter kidnappings, abductions and murders. Also, Russia’s war with Ukraine is posing a greater threat to coal than years of demands by environmentalists to cut back its use. And, the US-Israeli war with Iran has triggered a plastic shortage in Asia. Plus, we meet a Cypriot pediatric neurologist behind the discovery of an ultra-rare genetic syndrome.Photo credit: Fernando Llano/AP
