UN calls El-Fasher the ‘epicenter of suffering'

Newsday

Available for 28 days

The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces say they have taken control of the army's base in El-Fasher there. The RSF has surrounded the city for 18 months - with a quarter of a million people reported to be trapped inside. We ask a Jamaican senator about the preparations in place for Hurricane Melissa. The world's strongest storm is due to make landfall on Tuesday. And we look at K-beauty... are all the brands selling themselves as Korean Beauty really staying true to the skincare routines that have made it popular?
