There are up to 350,000 left behind children in Romania – children with parents living and working abroad – according to estimates provided by Save the Children Romania. In around 40% of cases, both parents have left to work abroad. EU migration laws allow Romanian adults to travel across Europe to find well-paid work – something that has become increasingly difficult to obtain in Romania. The children they leave behind, often living with grandparents, can suffer.

The US has carried out strikes on Iran’s Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz, US officials have told CBS, the BBC’s US partner.

The officials described the strikes as limited and defensive, and said they were in response to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) firing on a US aircraft.

Iranian state news agency Irna reported explosions on Qeshm on Monday. The IRGC did not comment but said its forces had shot down two US MQM-170 drones south of the island and a US MQ-9 drone east of the Strait of Hormuz.

The US military has not commented on the strikes, which came as mediators stepped up their efforts to prevent a return to all-out war after the US midterm elections on Tuesday.

The Prince of Wales, who made a surprise appearance, spent time shaking hands with people in the crowd, and he remarked how warm some of them were.
