1. Sudan Slides Toward Famine as 32 Governments Demand Aid Access
-- Thirty-two governments, including the United States and the European Union, warned of famine risk in Sudan on Tuesday and urged its warring parties to lift all impediments to humanitarian assistance.
-- The appeal puts pressure on the belligerents rather than donors: Britain sanctioned 15 commanders from the army and the Rapid Support Forces a day earlier, and with siege tactics and aid obstruction reported nationwide, delivery corridors rather than funding decide whether relief reaches famine-risk areas.
2. South Korea Adds a Decade of Reactor Life for Kori 3 and 4
-- South Korea's nuclear regulator, the Nuclear Safety and Security Commission, approved 10-year life extensions for the two 1,025 MW reactors, clearing Kori-3 to operate until September 2034 and Kori-4 until August 2035 after both were idled when 40 years of commercial operation expired.
-- Keeping 2,050 MW of firm output on the southeastern coast makes lifetime extension, rather than new construction, Seoul's near-term tool for expanding nuclear generation; the decision came four years after operator KHNP applied and a year after regulators gave Kori-2 the same reprieve.
3. UK Datacentre Policy Met 137 Businesses but No Environmental Groups
-- A probe by the nonprofit Spotlight on Corruption found the UK government consulted 137 businesses while developing its datacentre and 'AI growth zone' policy but held no meetings with environmental groups, and counted 38 ministers, senior civil servants and special advisers moving to AI company roles between July 2024 and September 2026.
-- Growth zones steer grid connections, planning consent and land, so the absence of environmental groups is a concrete approvals risk for datacentre developers. The revolving-door tally also gives campaigners grounds to ask whether the policy was framed with future employers in mind.
