Residents say incursions and raids have increased since forces first entered country a year ago after fall of Assad

On the day Bashar al-Assad’s regime fell , Abu Ibrahim and his family went to sleep wondering what sort of future awaited them in the morning. They woke in a panic, to the sound of gunfire and tanks.

The bullets announced the arrival of the Israeli military into the remote southern Syrian province of Quneitra on 9 December 2024. In the place of Assad militias who used to patrol the roads, bulky armoured personnel carriers filled with Israeli soldiers rumbled down the potholed streets, stopping to assure residents that they were there for their protection.

Make staying in feel like the main event with our pick of the comfiest, chicest nightwear around, from organic cotton to silky sets

• The best electric blankets and heated throws

Given we spend a third of our lives sleeping, or trying to, having a decent selection of nightwear just makes sense. As an inveterate introvert and someone who mostly works from home, I spend an inordinate amount of time in pyjamas – to the extent that I recently opened the door to my postman in jeans, only for him to remark, as though witnessing the second coming: “You’re dressed .”

So, if I’m an expert in anything, it’s pyjamas. In a bid to navigate the dark, cold winter months, I’ve rounded up 24 of the best, from cosy to silky, utilitarian to fancy. Forget all the talk of party season: these are the PJs worth cancelling plans for.

Yesterday’s Golden Globes announcement was a masterclass in mispronunciation that threatens to undo every effort to internationalise awards. Why can’t producers just make their presenters practise?

The day after an awards show announces its nominations, the focus typically falls on the nominees. However, yesterday’s Golden Globe nominations were a little different, because all anyone can talk about is how badly the actor Marlon Wayans mangled everyone’s name.

If you didn’t see it, it was a masterclass in getting it wrong. Watching Wayans announce the Golden Globe nominations was like living through one of those anxiety dreams where you’re asked to fly a jumbo jet and realise that you don’t know what any of the controls do. If you did see it, then I’m sure your toes will uncurl eventually.
