In 2025, global conflicts escalated, with ongoing devastation in the Gaza war and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The Gaza war, declared a genocide by international bodies, has resulted in over 70,000 deaths and a UN-declared famine in North Gaza, exacerbated by Israel's blockade of aid. Despite a US-brokered ceasefire, Israeli attacks persist. Meanwhile, the Russia-Ukraine war, now in its fourth year, shows no signs of a peace deal, with ongoing attacks from both sides despite US-led peace negotiations.
