Japan basically wrote never go to war again into its constitution. But now it's debating whether to change that, and these people are not happy about it. They're saying we are a peaceful nation, and the current pacifist constitution is Japan's treasure. Among them, Akari Maezono, a woman in her 30s holding brightly painted lanterns calling for peace. She thinks the public isn't being heard.
The world famous British wildlife filmmaker David Attenborough says he has been overwhelmed by the thousands of messages that he's received on his 100th birthday, including one from the British Prime Minister Keir Starmer. To mark the event, a concert is being held at London's Royal Albert Hall. A new song has been composed for him, and he's even had a wasp named after him.
Sir David first gained worldwide attention following the release of his groundbreaking BBC natural history series called Life on Earth back in 1979. A culture correspondent, David Sillito, has been talking to some of his closest friends and colleagues about what makes him so special. Rattlesnakes.
TÀmÀ on vihreÀ vihreÀ vihreÀ. Ei kukaan elÀvÀ elÀminen voisi yrittÀÀ nÀitÀ ihmisiÀ, kun se tulee löytÀmÀÀn, rauhoittamiseen ja rauhoittamiseen heidÀn vahvistuksiaan. Olen Iisalassa. TÀmÀ mahtava valta, joka rauhoittaa 200 metriÀ tai niin myöhemmin, on Molten Rock.
HÀn puhuu ylös. HÀn ei vain asuta ja esittÀÀ mikrofonin kanssa. HÀn on animoitu, hÀn on mielenkiintoinen, hÀn on liittyvÀ. Kameramiehen Gavin Thurston on ollut osa Attenborough-teamista melkein 40 vuotta. HÀn on saanut meidÀt takaisin Afrikkaan. Me olemme koko ajan viettÀneet vettÀ. Ja kun tÀmÀ kimpansi on mennyt vettÀ, se pysyy ylös. He eivÀt halua saada kÀsiÀ, joten se pysyy ylös ja laittaa armeensa vettÀ vettÀ vettÀ.
VihreÀllÀ ilmastollamme nÀkyy yllÀttÀvÀn pieni ilma. Aikaisemman vanhempien aikana, jotta voimme pysyÀ vaihtoehtoihin.
HÀn pitÀisi vahvistaa ja pysyÀ heidÀt vettÀ ympÀri vahvaa ruokaa. Silloin, kun hÀn on saanut sydÀmeni takaisin, hÀn on todella tietoinen siitÀ. HÀn on todella tietoinen kameran nÀkökulmasta. Ja hÀn laittaa tÀmÀn osan yhdessÀ. TÀmÀ on tÀrkeÀ hetki, kun meidÀt lÀheisiin lÀheisiin vanhempien vanhempien. HÀn tuli eteenpÀin, kun hÀn tuli eteenpÀin, kun hÀn tuli eteenpÀin, kun hÀn tuli eteenpÀin, kun hÀn tuli eteenpÀin, kun hÀn tuli eteen.
Ja Pam Jacksonin työpaikkojÀrjestelmÀ meni taas elÀmÀÀn maailmassa 70-luvulla. HÀn pysyivÀt hÀneltÀ, hÀn ei tykkÀynyt. HÀn yritti hÀnet pysyÀ hyvin nopeasti ja mennÀ ulos ulos. Eli hÀn ei ollut prima donna hÀnen nÀkökulmastaan? Ei enÀÀ, ei. Kysymys, jota olen kysynyt BBCin koko elÀmÀni, oli, onko David Attenborough todella hyvÀ, kun hÀn nÀyttÀÀ olevan televisiossa?
Ja aina sanon ihmisille, ettÀ jos se on mahdollista, hÀn on jopa parempi. Mutta mitÀ hÀntÀ tekee todella erityisenÀ, on se, mitÀ hÀn on kokeillut 100 vuoden aikana maailmassa.
These young pups have never seen anything like it before. For Alistair Fothergill, who's worked with him for some 40 years, he is unique. He started traveling in the early 50s when the planet was pristine. But at that same time, international air travel was just starting. David has seen more of the natural world than any human being that's ever lived on our planet. But in that same time, he's seen more change than has ever happened in our planet.
But even now, on his hundredth birthday. He's just got better and better and better through his whole career. Gavin wanted to show me this. Even though there are more wild foxes in London than almost any other big city, it's still a huge thrill to see one suddenly emerging from the bushes. Totally wild creature. David sat there on the deck chair, and his little fox cubs came out.
Hello. It's just a really sweet moment where you see David's passion for the wildlife in one simple shot. The boyish joy is there, isn't it? And here it is. It's Harvey's mouse. Welcome to your new home. There you go. He doesn't want to leave. David Silito with that report.

For years Ukraine has been one of the world's leading hubs for commercial surrogacy, attracting couples from around the world with lower costs and more relaxed laws. Despite Russia's full-scale invasion, the industry has continued to operate. But now a proposed law being debated in Ukraine's parliament could ban surrogacy for foreign parents, threatening to dismantle one of the world's biggest surrogacy markets.
A global health reporter Sofia Betitsa traveled to Kyiv to find out why foreign couples continue to travel to a country at war to have children and what the proposed law could change.
We are in a so-called baby room in the outskirts of Kyiv, set up by a surrogacy agency. Here newborn babies wait for their prospective parents to come and collect them from the UK, Turkey, Brazil and beyond.
No, you can hear that. Can you hear that sound? Every year, thousands head to Ukraine for surrogacy. The war disrupted this huge industry, but it didn't stop people like Hematraj and Rajvir, who have travelled from London to Kiev to have a baby.
