Members of the Hungarian Parliament leave the plenary hall to participate in a secret ballot to elect a new president at the parliament in Budapest on August 11, 2026. Hungarian lawmakers are expected to elect former supreme court chief Andras Baka, who was fired under ex-premier Viktor Orban, as the country's next head of state. The post became vacant following the contested removal of the previous president Tamas Sulyok, an Orban ally, as pro-EU conservative Prime Minister Peter Magyar pushes to loosen his predecessor's lingering hold over state institutions. Magyar's ruling Tisza party nominated Baka -- who served 17 years as a judge on the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) -- for the largely ceremonial role. Magyar's party won April 2026 elections, ending nationalist Orban's 16 years in power and promising "system change". (Photo by Attila KISBENEDEK / AFP)

An aerial view shows houses along the shoreline affected by coastal erosion in Ayetoro, Ondo State, on August 7, 2026. The coastal community of Ayetoro, in Nigeria's southwestern Ondo State, has become one of the country's most visible examples of the vulnerability of communities living along the Atlantic Ocean to coastal erosion and rising waters. Since the early 2000s, coastal erosion in Ayetoro has progressively intensified, with the Atlantic Ocean gradually encroaching on the settlement, swallowing homes, schools, and other infrastructure, and forcing some residents to relocate several times. The ocean that the community has lived alongside for generations has become a constant threat, leaving families to rebuild further inland only to see the water reach them again. For many in Ayetoro, the question is no longer whether the sea will reach their home, but when. (Photo by OLYMPIA DE MAISMONT / AFP)
