<p>The United Kingdom Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on Wednesday (November 2) defended how his&nbsp;government handled Channel migrants. Sunak's remarks come amid building tensions to address the deteriorating conditions at a processing centre in southeast England.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The UK prime minister did admit that not enough asylum claims are being processed, but he promised to fix the system, stating channel crossings were a 'serious and escalating problem.'</p>

<p>Sunak noted that his government is taking "significant action" in order to improve conditions at a site for handling asylum seekers in Manston in Kent. It is the same place which was described last week as "pretty wretched" by David Neal, who is the Independent Chief Inspector of Borders and Immigration.&nbsp;</p>

'Burn in hell': Family members of Parkland shooting victims confront Nikolas Cruz at sentencing

<p>Poland's defence minister on Wednesday (November 3) said that orders have been given to the authorities to construct a razor-wire fence on its border with Russian exclave Kaliningrad. The report about the construction of a wall come amid concerns that the exclave might become a channel for illegal migration in Poland.</p>

<p>In Kaliningrad, Russia has a significant military presence which is a tension for entire Europe, especially amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. The exclave is located on the Baltic coast between Poland and Lithuania. It is separated from Belarus by a border corridor.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Mariusz Blaszczak, the defence minister of the country, said at a news conference that the construction of the temporary 2.5-metre high and three-metre deep barrier will start immediately. He also added that it will be similar to the border that Poland set up along with Belarus last year.&nbsp;</p>

Poland sealing border with Russian exclave Kaliningrad by building razor-wire fence

<p>A recent study based on a national survey found that more than 1.3 million American adults with diabetes did not take their doses of insulin due to delays in buying amid the escalating cost of this life-saving medication.</p>

<p>The Guardian reported that some insulin rights activists, and those who have diabetes, raised their voices to handle the serious issue of the high costs of insulin in the United States.</p>

<p>Insulin, the main anabolic hormone of the body, is produced in the pancreas by special cells, called beta cells. In terms of medication, it is used in any pharmaceutical preparation of the protein hormone insulin that is used to treat high blood glucose.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The study published last month on October 18 in the Annals of Internal Medicine estimated that about 16.5 per cent of adults with diabetes, who are dependent on insulin, did not take full doses as prescribed.
