Within an hour of being arrested by Russian security forces, Roman Shapovalenko was threatened with rape. Shapovalenko's experience of sexual violence at the hands of Russian forces is common among Ukrainians – including civilians and soldiers – who have been detained since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of the country more than two years ago. CNN interviewed male survivors who were held by Russian units across occupied Ukraine. All described being subjected to threats of rape, forced nudity and genital electrocution. Taken together, their stories capture what prosecutors describe as Russia's systematic and continuing use of sexual violence as part of its efforts to force the Ukrainian people into submission.

"[MacKenzie] Scott's style of giving — generous, unrestricted and consistently happening with zero fanfare around it — has been a notable departure from the more methodical, top-down approach of large charitable foundations, including the one [Melinda] French Gates co-founded," writes CNN's Allison Morrow for CNN Business. That's the way Scott, one of America's single largest philanthropists, has chosen to disburse the spoils of her divorce from Jeff Bezos in 2019. And it's a style that French Gates appears to be emulating, at least partly, in her newly solo philanthropic venture.

Munitions made in the United States were used in the deadly Israeli strike on a displacement camp in Rafah on Sunday, a CNN analysis of video from the scene and a review by explosive weapons experts has found. At least 45 people were killed and more than 200 others injured after a fire broke out following the Israeli military’s strike on the outskirts of Gaza’s southernmost city, most of them women and children, according to the Gaza Health Ministry and Palestinian medics. Footage obtained by CNN showed swathes of the camp in Rafah in flames, with scores of men, women and children frantically trying to find cover from the nighttime assault. Burned bodies, including those of children, could be seen being pulled by rescuers from the wreckage. Israel’s escalating assault in Rafah – where some 1.3 million Palestinians were taking shelter before Israel began its operation there – has drawn swift international condemnation, with United Nations agencies, aid groups and multiple governments calling on Israel to immediately halt its offensive.

Cam Barrett knows the precise date of her first menstrual period. Her mother posted the news on Facebook. “I was in fourth grade. I was 9 years old. The date was September 9, 2009.

Reassuring new evidence suggests that feeding children smooth peanut butter during infancy and early childhood can help reduce their risk of developing a peanut allergy even years later. Compared with avoiding peanuts, starting peanut consumption in infancy – as early as around 4 months of age, as a soft pureed paste, for instance – and continuing regularly to around 5 years old was associated with a 71% reduced rate of peanut allergy among adolescents in the United Kingdom, according to a study published in the journal NEJM Evidence. Food allergies have become a growing public health concern in the United States, and peanut allergy is estimated to affect about 2% of children in the United States, or nearly 1.5 million people younger than 18. Peanuts are among the food types that can cause the most serious allergic reactions, including the risk of the life-threatening reaction anaphylaxis.

It’s the airplane seat design that launched a thousand memes, kickstarted a media storm and became a byword for innovation in aviation, for better or for worse. And now the double-level airplane seat is back – only this time, with a twist. Designer Alejandro Núñez Vicente remains a fervent believer that two-level seating is the future of flying. He’s spent his twenties – all five years of them so far – perfecting his vision for economy class dual-level seating. Now he’s focused on the next iteration of his dream: a luxury version for first-class and business-class passengers. The goal, according to Núñez Vicente? “To make more space for more seats in the airplane. But also give the passengers an even better experience than they get today in business or first class.” Tap the link in bio for more. 📸: Francesca Street/CNN
