in Afghanistan held parliamentary and provincial council elections on September 18, 2005. The Final results were delayed by accusations of election fraud, and were finally announced on November 12, 2005.
Former warlords and their followers gained the majority of seats in both the lower house and the provincial council in (which elects the members of the upper house). Women won 28% of the seats in the lower house, six more than the 25% guaranteed in the 2004 Constitution.
Turnout was estimated at about 50%, substantially in lower than at the presidential election in October 2004. This was blamed on the lack of identifiable party lists as a result of Afghanistan's new electoral law, which left the voters in many cases unclear on who they were voting for. I Hope this helped. :)

Lake Chad has shrunk by 90% since the 1960s, due to climate change (desertification is turning the land to desert and is causing droughts so it gets hotter and more dry), an increase in the population and unplanned irrigation.

Answer:
They found evidence of an impact crater in Mexico
Explanation:
The K-Pg boundary is the boundary that separates two periods, but also two eras. The two periods that are separated by this boundary are the Cretaceous and the Tertiary, while the two eras are the Mesozoic and the Cenozoic. The boundary is marked by a mass extinction, and the scientists started to hypothesize as to why it happened. There were numerous different theories, but a clue in Mexico, or rather right next to the Yucatan Peninsula, shed new light on it. The scientists found an impact crater, formed either by a large asteroid or a comet. Such an impact would have easily caused sudden and drastic changes on the Earth, killing of the majority of the species. This impact released such a big amount of energy that it killed everything in the surrounding area in seconds. On top of that, it caused an extremely hot wave of air across the whole planet, killing many more organisms. It managed to trigger most of the volcanoes to erupt, as well as the earthquakes, causing also very large tsunamis. The sunlight got blocked for quite some time from all the aerosols in the atmosphere as well. This resulted in a mass extinction of the dominant species, like the dinosaurs, but it opened up the terrain for the evolution of the others, like the mammals.
