Smaller towns in South Korea bear brunt of doctors’ shortage
Quick Glance: Smaller Towns in South Korea Struggle with Doctor Shortage
  • Hospitals in South Korea's smaller cities are facing a shortage of physicians as a nationwide strike by trainee doctors continues to protest plans to increase medical school admissions.

  • While Seoul has top-tier hospitals, smaller towns are suffering from a lack of doctors, exacerbated by an aging population and the world's lowest birth rates.

  • South Korea has one of the lowest doctor-to-patient ratios among developed countries, prompting government efforts to increase medical school enrollments, a move met with resistance from trainee doctors and medical groups.

  • Addressing the shortage of doctors in underserved areas and preventing them from clustering in Seoul requires not just an increase in doctor numbers but also policy changes, according to experts in the field.

Fact check: Biden repeats his claim that he ‘got arrested’ defending civil ...
Quick Glance: Fact Check: Biden Repeats Claim of Arrest for Defending Civil Rights. Still No Evidence
  • President Joe Biden reiterated his story of allegedly trying to defend the civil rights of Black Americans on 'The Howard Stern Show.' However, there is no evidence to support his claim of ever being arrested at a civil rights protest, as noted by 'The Washington Post' and 'PolitiFact.'

  • Biden has told the story of his supposed presence at a specific protest in Delaware at least twice without mentioning an arrest. He stated that the police simply took him home on that day.

  • It is impossible to prove definitively whether Biden was present at this or a similar protest over 60 years ago. He has also made other false claims about his personal life in the past.

  • Biden falsely claimed to have 'driven an 18-wheeler' and that he never earned $400,000 in a year. During his 2020 presidential campaign, he claimed to have been 'arrested' as a US senator while trying to visit South African anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela in prison, which turned out to be untrue.

Quick Glance: Israeli Strikes on Rafah Kill 22, Mostly Children, as US Advances Aid Package
  • Israeli strikes on the southern Gaza city of Rafah overnight killed 22 people, including 18 children, as the US House of Representatives approved $13 billion in new Israeli military aid.

  • However, fears of wider war breaking out in the Middle East have eased somewhat after Iran downplayed Israel’s reported retaliation over its unprecedented missile and drone attack on the country a week ago.

  • Israel has carried out near-daily air raids on Rafah and vowed to expand its ground offensive against the Hamas militant group to the city on the border with Egypt despite calls for restraint, including from the US.

  • Tensions have also spiked in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, with Israeli troops killing two Palestinians who attacked a checkpoint with a knife and a gun near the southern West Bank town of Hebron.

Quick Glance: Russia Strikes Chernihiv: 18 Dead, Ukraine Appeals for Air Defense
  • At least 18 people were killed and over 60 wounded in Chernihiv due to Russian missile strikes. Ukrainian officials emphasized that the attack could have been prevented with adequate air defense systems.

  • Russia launched three Iskander cruise missiles at the city, located near the Russian border and previously encircled by Russian troops.

  • Ukraine currently has three Patriot air defense systems but requires 26 for full coverage. Following appeals for more systems, Germany pledged to send an additional one.

  • A $60 billion aid package for Ukraine is stalled in the US Congress, allowing Russia to exploit ammunition and air defense shortages and gain ground in the east.
