The city of Bahri in Sudan has been one of the hardest-hit by conflict. Government subsidies for the displaced have recently stopped so people rely on organisations, like this community kitchen, funded through donations, to survive. Good report by @france24.com. youtu.be/f2A2GtY9igU?...

Lleyton Hewitt/Mark Philippoussis vs Marcos Baghdatis/James Blake. A flashback to the 'good old days'. #AusOpen
That was brutal. @alexdeminaur played his heart out. @janniksin just on a different level, maybe planet. #AusOpen
Israel delays the start of the ceasefire in Gaza until Hamas provides a list of the names of the hostages to be released.
Lebanese people don't get to see themselves being reflected in a good light or celebrated nearly enough. We're usually the villain in stories, or a terrorist or the dodgy developer in the news. So, this is nice. More opportunities to celebrate more Hadys please.
Watching Hady Habib in action at the #AusOpen is delightful. Not only for being the first person to represent Lebanon at a Grand Slam in the Open era, but he's actually playing good tennis. Arab excellence - love to see it. (Also, the occasional zaghrouta from the fans is killing me 😂)

Bumrah got his revenge on debutant Konstas, whose fearless first innings was quite something, dismissing him for only 8. #AUSvIND
What a moment today when 21-year-old Nitish Kumar Reddy turned the Boxing Day Test on its head, smashing a maiden Test century. You could see how much it meant to him and his father, who was seen crying from the stands. Bloody brilliant stuff. That's what cricket's all about. #AUSvIND
