As part of a series of activities to celebrate the 49th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification Day (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2024) and the 138th anniversary of International Labor Day (May 1, 1886 - May 1, 2024), the blue beret doctors of Level 2 Field Hospital No. 5, Vietnam, had many meaningful activities.
It started with a volunteer trip to Bentiu Girls Primary School in Bentiu, Unity State, South Sudan.
This time, the gifts to the children are 50 gifts including: notebooks, colored pencils, drawing books, pencils, sandals, clothes to 50 children with difficult circumstances but with high academic achievements.
In addition, there are 20 gifts for teachers teaching at the school, along with some support for the school's board of directors to overcome difficulties in teaching, including stationery.
The Youth and Women's Group of Level 2 Field Hospital No. 5 turned the volunteer program into a big festival day in the school, including games such as tug of war, jumping rope, teaching hand washing and personal hygiene...
The women's group also prepared 40 liters of milk tea and some cakes for the children to enjoy.
The school is being rebuilt with UNICEF support from war-damaged houses.
Dr. Nguyen Ha Ngoc - Director of Level 2 Field Hospital No. 5 - said that organizing charity programs on the occasion of April 30 is a series of activities to remember the contributions of our army and people in the cause of national liberation.
Moreover, the program is an opportunity for staff of Level 2 Field Hospital No. 5 to approach local people, perform meaningful work, promote and build the image of the country and people of Vietnam to international friends.
Ly Hai's 'Flip Side 7' surpasses 100 billion VND mark
"Flip Side 7: A Wish" - a work produced by Ly Hai - surpassed 100 billion VND after three days of release, including early screenings.
The film became Ly Hai's fourth consecutive project to conquer this revenue milestone. According to Box Office Vietnam , an independent box office monitoring unit, last weekend (April 26-28), the film attracted nearly 750,000 viewers - nearly 12 times more than Siege: The Punisher , an action film by Korean actor Ma Dong Seok , released in theaters on the same day.
Lat mat 7 is also one of the Vietnamese films with the highest number of pre-ordered tickets - 105,000 tickets. The work is the second Vietnamese film to surpass the 100 billion VND mark this year, after Mai by Tran Thanh (520 billion VND).
The film is currently the most notable film project during the April 30-May 1 holiday season. The film has received positive word-of-mouth feedback on social media, with many videos of the film crew going on a cine-tour on TikTok reaching millions of views. Many viewers commented that this is the best part of the 55-year-old director's Flip Face series thanks to the selection of suitable actors, a tight script, and few unnecessary details.
Lat mat 7 is the latest successful Vietnamese film after Mai - released during the Lunar New Year. Many recent domestic productions have had poor box office results. The Price of Happiness - an 18+ film starring Thai Hoa - earned 24 billion VND after two weeks, not enough to break even. Before Love - a film about dating among young people - only earned nearly 4 billion VND. Many previous films, such as Lady Heirie 2 and Bright Lights , have continuously lost tens of billions of VND.

Which land animal has the largest eyes?
At about 5 cm in diameter, ostrich eyes are five times larger than human eyes and larger than their own brains.
Ostriches ( Struthioniformes ) are strange, but they also hold many records on Earth. Not only are they the largest group of birds on the planet, reaching up to 2.8 m (9 ft) tall, but they are also the fastest group of flightless birds. Another impressive record is that they have the largest eyes of any land animal. In fact, an ostrich's eyes are larger than its brain.
The ostrich eye is about 5 cm in diameter, about 5 times larger than the human eye. In the ostrich eye, the lens and cornea contribute equally to the total optical power.
Analysis showed that ostrich eyes are almost large-scale versions of the eyes of other birds, such as the green starling ( Sturnus vulgaris ) and the golden owl ( Strix aluco ). This is quite remarkable because the eye shapes of these bird groups look different. Experts hypothesize that this may be due to their different weights.
Despite their huge eyes, ostrich brains are modest in size. They are about 5.9 cm long and 4.2 cm wide. However, ostriches have evolved to not need a large brain. If hiding doesn't work, they can usually run away quickly.
