Those strikes have brought the overall death toll in Gaza to well over 50,000 since the beginning of the war, according to the enclave's Hamas-run Health Ministry.

Omdurman, Sudan —Hunger is everywhere in war-torn Sudan.

Tel Aviv — Israel said a barrage of hundreds of rockets was fired at the north of the country Sunday by Iran-backed Hezbollah militants in neighboring Lebanon. The assault came after days of devastating strikes by the Israel Defense Forces, which said it was targeting Hezbollah sites around the Lebanese capital Beirut. Israeli officials said there were some injuries caused by the Hezbollah rocket fire, but many of the weapons were intercepted by Israel's advanced missile defense systems.
