Michelle Dee's flamboyant performance during the Miss Universe Philippines' evening gown competition was inspired by her mother, Melanie Marquez, whose signature 'S' walk clinched her Miss International crown in 1979. During the pageant, Dee sashayed in her elegant asymmetrical black dress by Mark Bumgarner, going from one side of the stage to the other before stopping in the middle and doing a quick turn, all while serving a fierce look to her audience. Her performance earned her the Best in Evening Gown award, and she eventually emerged as Miss Universe Philippines 2023 last Saturday, May 13.

Minasse Wondimu Hailu/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images (CAIRO) -- By 2025, Egypt is projected to be a water-scarce nation as climate change and a major dam threaten its source of survival. Egypt has long been called the "gift of the Nile" as it has historically depended on the river for survival. But over the next two years, experts say Egyptians could approach a state of "absolute" water scarcity. Climate change, population growth and a regional fight for water resources are all contributing to the risk of water imbalance, experts say.

NEAR KORNIDZOR, Armenia - Russia said that Armenian fighters in the breakaway region of Nagorno Karabakh had started to give up arms as some humanitarian aid reached the 120,000 Armenians there who say the world has abandoned them after Azerbaijan defeated their forces. The Armenians of Karabakh, which is internationally recognised as part of Azerbaijan, were forced to declare a ceasefire on Sept. 20 after a lightning 24-hour military operation by the much larger Azerbaijani military. "The armed formations of Karabakh have begun handing over weapons and military equipment under the control of Russian peacekeepers," said Russia, which has around 2,000 peacekeepers in Karabakh.
