Satellite View of Gulf of Morbihan - France

Handout Satellite View, dated October 17, 2025, shows the Gulf of Morbihan in France. The Gulf of Morbihan, part of the Natura 2000 network, forms one of France’s most distinctive coastal landscapes. This inland sea is dotted with dozens of small islands and peninsulas, creating a labyrinth of sheltered bays, narrow channels, and shifting tidal flats. Its highly indented shape supports a mosaic of coastal habitats, from eelgrass meadows to mudflats, which provide vital feeding and breeding grounds for migratory birds and numerous marine species. Located in Brittany, near towns such as Vannes, Arradon, and Arzon, the gulf’s intricate contours are clearly visible in this Copernicus Sentinel-2 image acquired on 17 October 2025. The deep blues highlight the flooded channels at high tide, while surrounding vegetation appears in bright green. Photo by European Union, Copernicus Sentinel-2 imagery via ABACAPRESS.COM

Satellite Views of Disastrous Flooding in The Philippines

Handout photo dated on November 12, 2025 shows Following the landfall of Typhoon Fung-wong on 9 November 2025, northern regions of the Philippines were affected by extensive flooding, with the Cagayan Valley among the worst hit areas. The typhoon brought intense rainfall, causing the Cagayan River to overflow its banks, submerging agricultural land, infrastructure, and urban areas, including the city of Tuguegarao. Several communities in the province of Cagayan were displaced, and damage to crops and transport infrastructure was reported across the region. This false colour image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 12 November 2025, shows the flooded areas along the Cagayan River. In this composite, vegetation appears in red, while water bodies and flooded areas are shown in shades of light blue and green. Additionally, sediment plumes can be seen at the river’s mouth near Aparri, where the river enters the Pacific Ocean. Photo by European Union, Copernicus Sentinel-2 imagery via ABACA

Israeli occupation authorities have issued demolition orders targeting 13 homes, the community center and a health clinic in the village. According to village representative Khalil al-Hathalin, carrying out the orders would destroy about half of the village’s housing and displace roughly 150 residents from a population of 300. The demolitions would also leave approximately 65 children without recreational space or access to health services. Photo by Mosab Shawer/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM

Urca Oil and Gas Production Field Development - Brazil

A worker examines seeds used for cultivating tropical rainforest vegetation at the Urucu Oil and Gas Production Field in the state of Amazonas, Brazil, Oct. 17, 2025. The Urucu Oil and Gas Production Field, located in the heart of Brazil's Amazonas state, is one of the country's most important onshore oil and gas production bases. Surrounded by pristine rainforest, it has operated steadily since its start-up in 1988, supplying oil and natural gas that support energy needs across northern Brazil. According to its operator Petrobras, the field has preserved about 98 percent of its area as native forest, carries out rainwater recycling, waste recovery, and reforestation programs and plants more than 1.5 million native trees.

Spain Gripped by Violent Wildfires

Several cows surround the 'miracle' tree, on August 17, 2025, in Soto de Viñuelas, Tres Cantos, Madrid (Spain). The real explanation is not "so miraculous": this tree is the only one in the area that provides shade for cattle, and cows usually take refuge there. In doing so, they eat the vegetation and trample the ground, leaving the land bare of grass. This natural clearing of the ground acted as a firebreak, preventing the flames from reaching the tree and saving both the cows and the small green patch around it, while the whole environment burned. It is a symbol of hope after the tragedy of the fire that devastated Tres Cantos last August 11, but it also serves to raise awareness of the importance of grazing and forest management to avoid such destructive forest fires.
