Asbestos killed my mum in her 40s
Confirmed
More than 3,050 people were reported killed from January to June and another 1,400 injured, according to UN statistics released on Tuesday. An Israeli military strike overnight into Tuesday also destroyed a warehouse storing nutrition supplies intended for children, pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers in Gaza, Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) said. Three Palestinians were killed and others injured in a strike on a home in Beit Lahiya, near Kamal Adwan Hospital, on Tuesday, a source at al-Shifa Hospital said.

The 26-year-old said her world "turned upside down" when she found out her mum had incurable cancer.
Cardiff council said it would be inappropriate to comment on legal proceedings in progress. "She never had the sort of career that would have exposed her to asbestos," said Caroline's daughter Brooklyn.
