With the ever-growing and often overwhelming number of news outlets, it has become increasingly difficult to identify reliable sources. Artificial intelligence is likely to make matters worse, as more and more articles are now computer-generated and spread false information. These fake websites often have just one person at the helm, using artificial intelligence in the hope of earning money from advertising. Our France 2 colleagues report, with FRANCE 24's Jennifer Ben Brahim.

In 2024, Brazil recorded an almost 70 percent year-on-year increase in cases of discrimination and attacks on religious practices, according to the ministry of human rights. The main victims are religions of African origin, such as Umbanda and Candomblé. Their followers are threatened and their religious temples destroyed and ransacked. This intolerance is fuelled by branches of evangelical Christianity: Pentecostal and neo-Pentecostal churches, whose numbers have soared in Brazil in recent years. FRANCE 24's Louise Raulais and Jan Onoszko report.

Private forests in France have become a target for large-scale timber theft, which results in a huge financial loss for property owners and an environmental disaster. But when nearly 300 beautiful oak trees were illegally cut down in the Yvelines department in 2022, local residents took it upon themselves to track down the culprits. Our France 2 colleagues report, with FRANCE 24's Lauren Bain.

Semiconductors can be found in all our electronic devices: mobile phones, computers and surveillance cameras. Still a minor player in this highly strategic sector, Vietnam is rapidly developing its industry. The government is investing in universities to train more engineers specialised in semiconductors, in the hope of eventually competing with China and Taiwan. FRANCE 24's Adam Hancock, William de Tamaris and Mélodie Sforza report.

Peru is home to more than 2,000 glaciers. But like elsewhere in the world, they are melting faster and faster due to climate change. The country’s glaciers have lost more than half of their surface area over the past 50 years and this change in the landscape is having catastrophic consequences for many residents of the Andes. The water they drink every day is being contaminated with heavy metals. FRANCE 24's Agathe Fourcade, Martin Chabal report, with Wassim Cornet. 

In 2018, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi promised to eradicate tuberculosis (TB) in the country by 2025, aiming to set an example globally. Since December 2024, India's health minister has led a "100-day campaign" to eliminate TB, but recent WHO data shows India is far from its goal. It recorded 2.5 to 3 million new cases and over 400,000 deaths in 2023 alone, accounting for a third of global TB cases and deaths. The country faces two major issues: TB treatment shortages and the rise of multi-drug-resistant TB. While treatments exist, the government's slow approval of their distribution has hindered progress, leaving India at a critical juncture in its fight against the disease. FRANCE 24's Khansa Juned and Alban Alvarez report.

The peregrine falcon, one of Scotland's protected species, is facing a growing threat. Smuggled to the Middle East for falcon racing, these birds can fetch a high price on the black market. As demand grows, conservationists are fighting to protect them from an increasingly sophisticated illegal trade, while police are tracking down the criminals. Our France 2 colleagues report, with FRANCE 24's Guillaume Gougeon.

Our Syria correspondents travelled to the country's western coastal province of Latakia, which was the scene of the shocking massacre of civilians from the Alawite minority between March 7 and 9. They bring us this exclusive report.

Located in the southern West Bank, the village of Masafer Yatta was made famous by the film "No Other Land", which won the 2025 Oscar for Best Documentary Feature Film. The movie, the joint brainchild of Palestinian filmmaker Basel Adra and Israeli director Yuval Abraham, recounts daily life in a region under continuous attack from extremist Israeli settlers. Here, a unique form of activism exists between Israelis and Palestinians. Our correspondent Claire Duhamel reports from Masafer Yatta, with Josh Vardey. Warning: some viewers might find these images distressing.

Since the fall of Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad’s regime last December and an increasingly virulent debate on immigration in Germany, many exiled Syrians there are wondering about their future. Some are already packing their bags to return home, while others are eagerly awaiting the resumption of direct flights between Berlin and Damascus so that they can visit their families, but have no intention of returning to live in Syria. More than a million Syrian refugees call Germany home, with many of them having rebuilt their lives there. FRANCE 24's Louay Ghabra, Sébastien Millard, Anne Mailliet and Nick Holdsworth report.
