Resistance in Ukraine's occupied cities is dangerous, and it often comes in small acts of defiance aimed at reminding residents that they are not alone.

Root surpassed World Cup-winning captain Eoin Morgan to become England's leading run-scorer in one-day internationals during hisagainst West Indies in Cardiff, a title he also holds in Tests.

He came to the crease in the first over, and withstood all of West Indies' pressure when England were on the ropes at 133-5 in pursuit of 309 to win.A 98-ball century was raised having barely broken a sweat, reaching it in style with a six and a four, before the Yorkshireman glided into the next gear in his stand of 143 with Will Jacks which saw the helpless bowlers at his mercy."He's unbelievable and he's only getting better with age as well," said Brook, who made 47 and added a counter-attacking 85 for the third wicket with Root, who stayed in his skipper's slipstream in a perfectly paced knock.

"He's someone I look up to, he's such an amazing player, such an amazing bloke. He works the hardest out of anyone I've seen."Nothing's ever right and he's always trying to get better - he's the perfect role model for any young cricketer out there."

Upon reaching 42, Root bettered Morgan's tally of 6,957 runs and with typical modesty said it felt like "a sign of getting old" when asked about what the milestone meant - before adding there is plenty more in the tank as far as his future in the format is concerned, though he is still some way from reaching Sachin Tendulkar's record of 18,426.

"Until that desire, that want to turn up and get better every day and add to the group – the want to be not out at the end of a chase like that – when that's not a burning desire for me any more, it'll be time to stop," said 34-year-old Root.Part of the separatists' strategy to weaken the state and its security forces is to push for a ban on education which they say is a tool of government propaganda.

In October 2020, a school in Kumba was attacked. No-one claimed responsibility for the atrocity but the government blamed separatists. Men armed with machetes and guns killed at least seven children.The incident sparked, for a brief moment, international outrage and condemnation.

"Nearly half the schools in this region have been shut," says journalist Eyong."A whole generation of kids is missing out on their education. Imagine the impact this will have for our communities and also for our country."
