One million people have been wounded during Syria's civil war and diseases are spreading as regular supplies of medicine fail to reach patients, the World Health Organization's Syria representative said.

A plunge in vaccination rates from 90 percent before the war to 52 percent this year and contaminated water have added to the woes, allowing typhoid and hepatitis to advance, Elizabeth Hoff said in an interview late on Thursday.

More than 200,000 people have been killed in Syria's conflict, which began in March 2011 with popular protests against President Bashar al-Assad and spiraled into civil war after a crackdown by his security forces.

"In Syria, they have a million people injured as a direct result of the war. You can see it in the country when you travel around. You see a lot of amputees," said Hoff. "This is the biggest problem."

Tragic! Baby And Mother Who Went Missing From Hospital Found Dead

ITV News
A mother who walked out of a Bristol maternity hospital on Tuesday night with her newborn baby have both been found dead.

 The bodies of Charlotte Bevan and her daughter Zaani were discovered in the Avon Gorge, near the city's Clifton Suspension bridge. For two days people held on to whatever hope they could find, that something else, however far fetched, had become of this five-day-old baby girl. But  those hopes were extinguished.

There are questions for the hospital amid local criticism that it has let down this baby and her mother with her history of mental health issues. Should she have been more closely monitored, should one of the people she passed on the way out that night not have noticed and asked her where she was going? The Trust says it has launched a thorough review to find out if their deaths could have been prevented.

When one of her children was killed six years ago, Anne Arnal never dreamed she would have to go through the same pain again.

And again.

Three of her six children – her freckle-faced, youngest boys – have died in separate accidents on the family’s farm.

Arnal says most people can’t fathom the grief she and her family are suffering. “I could never imagine how or why I would be asked to have to do this,” she says.

“You try to figure out whether you’re supposed to gain something or whether you’re supposed to change somehow or what you’re being tested for … and I don’t have the slightest idea.”

Grand Jury Frees NYPD Officer Who Choked Eric Garner To Death

Widespread protests have erupted in New York after a Staten Island grand jury on Wednesday refused to indict an NYPD officer who killed an unarmed African American man.

Eric Garner, 43, was killed by a White 29-year-old police officer Daniel Pantaleo, after putting him in a choke hold while trying to arrest him because they suspected he was selling untaxed cigarettes, NBC reports. Garner, who was reportedly asthmatic, died shortly after the incident.

According to reports, the NYPD’s patrol guide explicitly prohibits choke holds

A medical examiner ruled the death a homicide, stating that “compression of the neck and chest, along with Garner’s positioning on the ground while being restrained by police during the July 17 stop on Staten Island, caused his death.”

The grand jury’s decision to end the criminal case against Pantaleo has been condemned by elected officials and sparked off a wave of protests.
