    (CNN) - A couple abandoned their baby at an airport check-in desk in Tel Aviv, Israel after arriving without a ticket for the child. The pair, who have not been identified, were checking in for a Ryanair flight from Ben Gurion International Airport to Brussels, Belgium on Tuesday with the infant. It emerged that the baby did not have a ticket, and the couple headed off to board the flight - leaving their child behind on the airline check-in counter. 

    "The matter was referred to police", a spokeswoman for Ryanair told CNN in an email. She said: "These passengers traveling from Tel Aviv to Brussels presented at check-in without a booking for their infant. They then proceeded to security leaving the infant behind at check-in. The check-in agent at Ben Gurion Airport contacted Airport Security, who retrieved these passengers, and this is now a matter for local police."

    According to Ryanair's website, "infants can be included in a flight reservation during the online booking process." When making plans to travel with an infant, a pop-up message appears on the site stating that there is a €25 ($27) charge - or the local currency equivalent - for each one-way flight the baby takes while sitting on an adult's lap. A seat must be paid for by separate arrangement if the adults want the baby to travel in a car seat.

    The Israeli Airport Authority confirmed the episode to CNN and said in a statement: "A couple and an infant with Belgian passports arrived for a flight at Terminal 1 without a ticket for the baby. The couple also arrived late for the flight, once the check-in for the flight was closed. The couple left the infant seat with the baby and ran toward the security checks at Terminal 1 in an attempt to reach the boarding gate for the flight."

    A spokesman for Israel Police told CNN in a phone call that the matter appeared to have been resolved by the time police arrived on the scene. He said: "The baby was with the parents and there's no further investigation."

Identical twins go on separate vegan and meat diets to see difference they make to body


    In 2021, a set of identical twins took part in an experiment that involved one going vegan while the other consumed meat to see which of these two diets is (1) ________. The diets are complete polar opposites, but which one is being (2) ________ to your body?

    Well, explorers Hugo and Ross Turner decided to put the plant-based and omnivore diets to the test to see which was better - with Hugo ditching meat and dairy and Ross sticking to a diet that included meat, dairy and fish. The twins took part in the Kings College London study over a 12-week period (3) ________ the same number of calories each day as well as carrying out the same gym training.

    Hugo admitted that the switch to a plant-based diet hadn't been easy, but he eventually ended up feeling more energetic. "I was on the vegan diet and it really does take a hit on your body. I was now having to eat fruit and nuts and alternatives that didn't have any dairy in them - and so that meant I was eating a lot more wholesome food, which meant that my sugar levels were a lot satiated during the day. I felt like I had more energy." 

    On the other hand, Ross' meat-eating journey was a little different. As he said, his gym performance was 'up and down a little bit more'. He added that on some days of the challenge he felt 'very energetic' and on others he would have 'huge lulls'.

    By the end of the 12-week study, the men found that the differences between the two diets weren't very significant, after all.

Why Climate Change Could Mean More Delayed Flights 

    No one enjoys a delayed flight, but as our weather gets warmer, we can expect more of them.

    That's according to experts, who say that the heat of the summer might cause more delays.

    Bloomberg looked at US data for flight delays at airports in Chicago and New York from June to August in 2022 and from January to March in 2023. It found that there were more delayed flights in the summer months at both airports. 

    When the temperature rises above 39 degrees Celsius, things get very difficult for airlines, Bijan Vasigh, a professor at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in the US, told Bloomberg.

    The air is thinner when it gets hot and that makes it harder for planes to take off. In thinner air there is not as much lift, so more power is needed.

    When they need more power, it helps to have a lighter airplane.

    That might mean pilots have to make last-minute decisions to reduce the weight on board by dumping fuel, passengers or baggage — meaning the plane will probably be delayed.

    The problem gets worse at airports that are at a higher altitude where the air is already thinner, and at airports with short runways, since planes need more space to get up to a high speed.

    But thin air is not the only problem. Smoke from wildfires — that have been happening all around the world in the summer of 2023 — can also cause flights to be delayed and canceled.    

    Of course, the summer is also a busy time when millions of people fly, and weather is not the only cause of delays — but our hotter climate doesn't seem to be helping.

Car crashes into second floor of Pennsylvania home 

    A man drove his car into the second floor of a Pennsylvania home on Sunday in what officials say was an "intentional act".
    Charges are pending against the driver after police found a grey vehicle sticking out of the side of the house in the city of Lewistown.
    Officials have not said how exactly the vehicle made its way to the second floor.   
    "The pictures speak for themselves", a fire official told the BBC. 
    Anywhere from one to three people were inside the home at the time of the crash but were not injured, according to Sam Baumgardner, an administrator at the Junction Fire Company, which assisted in the response to the crash.
    The driver was able to climb out onto the roof after the crash and was taken to the hospital with injuries, Mr Baumgardner said.
    He added that the car likely hit the second floor because of a culvert - a tunnel that carries a stream under a road or railway - on the left side of the house.
  The driver "went into the culvert and propelled into the air and landed on the second floor", Mr Baumgardner said.
    In a report, Lewistown police said they had determined through an investigation that the crash was "an intentional act".
    Officials added that the driver will face charges for the crash.
    The BBC has reached out to police for comment.
    The fire department said it took about three hours to remove the car from the second floor.
    "The crew that was on the rescue definitely had to think outside the box," Mr Baumgardner said.
    Rescue crews helped stabilise the house and put a tarp over the hole from the crash because of upcoming storms, the Junction Fire Company said in a post on Facebook.
