Hong Kong actor Will Or, best known for his performance in the 2021 film 'Drifting', has reassured fans that he will be fine. Photo: Will Or/Instagram Hong Kong actor Will Or has revealed that he's battling stage four lung adenocarcinoma. The 33-year-old broke the news on Instagram on July 30, sharing that his symptoms began in late May with a lingering cough that didn't improve even after two rounds of antibiotics. Concerned, he consulted a respiratory specialist and underwent a CT scan, which revealed an abnormality. 'I was referred to another specialist. When the doctor saw my report, his expression changed, so I joked, 'The doctor looks so grim. Is it cancer?' 'I thought it would be tuberculosis, but after several days of further testing at the hospital, I was diagnosed with stage four lung adenocarcinoma,' he said. Or admitted that the diagnosis dealt a heavy blow, and he felt as if he were 'walking into emptiness' upon hearing the news. 'I just wanted to sleep and escape. I wanted a break, but I love my work too much. Even when it's exhausting, I enjoy giving my all,' he said. Following his discharge, Or went home to shower before heading straight to rehearsals. Despite his resolve to keep working, the Drifting (2021) star ultimately decided to take a temporary break after consulting his doctor. 'I hope I can still perform. That tiny hope, that tiny desire, those little thoughts and the little bits of support from everyone around me are what I'm holding onto,' he said. Opening up about the emotional impact of the diagnosis, Or shared that he turned to Google in search of guidance on how to cope. He then recalled a moment that helped shift his perspective – when his father, in tears, hugged him and said he wished he could take his place. 'At that moment, I felt lucky to have such a loving father. I was even more relieved that it wasn't him or someone I love who got sick. That's when I began to accept my diagnosis.' Or went on to reassure his fans, urging them not to worry or tell him to 'stay strong'. 'Living in this crazy world is already hard enough. A smile, a nod or even a strong emoji is enough... That's all I need to know you're with me,' he said. He concluded with a message of hope, writing: 'I'll be OK. Life goes on. I love you all and know I'm cherished by all of you.'

The jacket can be styled with just about anything from jeans to dresses and skirts. THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 - and it was an instant hit. Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland's first 'shopping frenzy'. During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne's 'Better Value' bargains. Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 - starting with apples and oranges. The retailer said: "Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town. "Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong. "Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas." The retailer's first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960. They added: "In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed. "Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England." Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.

Shocking Testimonies Reveal Israeli Soldiers' Psychological Collapse
DaysofPal – In a rare breach of silence, five Israeli soldiers have come forward with harrowing testimonies detailing the psychological trauma, moral disillusionment, and war crimes committed by Israeli occupation forces during the assault on Gaza. These testimonies—collected by Haaretz—offer a chilling counter-narrative to the sanitized image portrayed by Israeli military leadership. Their accounts reveal unfiltered truths: deep emotional breakdowns, dehumanization of civilians, and growing disbelief in the stated goals of the war. For these soldiers, Gaza was not a battleground of purpose—but a graveyard of humanity. 'I Just Want This to End' Or, a 20-year-old from the Paratrooper Reconnaissance Unit, described the aftermath of an airstrike in Khan Younis: 'We approached the ruins of a house… five, maybe six bodies… Two of them were children. I saw their bones. Dogs had eaten parts of them. The smell stuck to me for days.' The horror left him broken: 'We rushed onto the Humvees again. I wanted to run, but I didn't have the courage. This war is a nightmare.' 'The Most Terrifying Memory' Yonatan, 21, of the Kfir Brigade, recalled his deployment to Jabalia: 'During the day we roasted, at night we froze. Sand stuck to our skin. Hardly any people—just stray dogs searching for scraps.' He described an incident where a commander casually shot dogs near their position, calling them 'terrorists' dogs.' But his worst memory came when an explosion killed his best friend. 'Blood filled my mouth. I thought I was hit. But it was his blood. He begged me to help, but I froze. I couldn't sleep or eat for days.' 'How Many Friends Must I Bury?' Omer, from the Givati Brigade, expressed his bitter disillusionment: 'After October 7, we were euphoric. But now? I've lost so many—school friends, unit mates, neighbors. And many died for no reason: no support, no planning.' He added, 'We keep our wills on our phones. We even joke about who'll attend our funerals.' 'I Don't Know If I'll Ever Heal' Yair, from the Nahal Reconnaissance Unit, detailed the unrelenting pressure: 'Ten days with your boots on. Lying in dirt, barely conscious. I'm losing hair from stress. One of our squads was wiped out. I'm alive—but broken.' 'I tell myself not to cry. I'm lucky. But the fear… the guilt… I don't know if I'll ever recover.' 'I Lost Faith in This War' Ori, 22, from the elite Yahalom engineering unit, shared his journey from belief to despair: 'I truly believed we were protecting civilians. But after the funerals, the hostages killed in our own strikes—doubt became certainty.' He accused the government of prolonging the war for political gain: 'This war has no justification anymore. It's a cycle of death, not victory. We're risking everything for nothing.' Ori issued a plea to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: 'When will you stop? At 900 dead? A thousand? Please. Just stop.' These rare, public confessions puncture the carefully managed Israeli narrative, revealing the severe mental toll on soldiers—and the brutal impact on Gaza's civilian population. As the war grinds on, even those who once fought with conviction now question the very mission they were sent to fulfill. Shortlink for this post:
