Israel launched dozens of airstrikes across northern and southern Gaza on Friday, killing more than 93 people and wounding hundreds.
The strikes followed days of similar attacks that killed more than 130 people, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry, and came as US President Donald Trump wrapped up a visit to Gulf states — but not Israel.
FRANCE 24's Erin Ogunkeye is joined by Yasmine Ahmed, UK Director of Human Rights Watch.

Presentazione del primo volume del MANUALE DI STORIA CONTEMPORANEA curato dalla Scuola di Base A.S. Makarenko e pubblicato dalle Edizioni Rapporti Sociali
Domenica 25 maggio, dalle 10:30, presso Casa della sinistra, Via Nicola Antonio Porpora, 45, 20131 Milano MI
‼️ La lotta di classe è il motore della storia!*
Presentiamo il primo volume del MANUALE DI STORIA CONTEMPORANEA
curato dalla Scuola di Base A.S. Makarenko e pubblicato dalle Edizioni Rapporti Sociali
Ti aspettiamo
🗓️ Domenica 25 maggio 🕒 alle 10.30 🏡 presso la Casa della Sinistra di Zona 3| Via Porpora 45 Milano
📌 Un manuale che spiega i fatti e non si limita a elencarli con pedante nozionismo.
Un progetto per (ri)leggere la storia dal punto di vista della classe operaia e delle masse popolari.
Uno strumento per appassionare docenti, studenti, lavoratori in cui vive l'aspirazione a una società senza più sfruttamento.
🚩 Ripercorreremo i passi principali che hanno portato alla Comune di Parigi, le sue principali conquiste e i motivi che hanno portato alla sua violenta dissoluzione, per trarne insegnamenti utili per sviluppare oggi in Italia quel nuovo assalto al cielo, con cui classe operaia e masse popolari possono farla finita con il dominio dei padroni sul mondo, lo sfruttamento, la guerra, il saccheggio delle risorse e l'abbrutimento morale e materiale.
🥙 Alle 13.00 ci sarà un pranzo popolare a 15€ per raccogliere fondi per sostenere il progetto editoriale e la pubblicazione del secondo volume del manuale di storia contemporanea

The image depicts a watercolor drawing of a woman standing in a room. The woman has blonde hair and is wearing a pink dress with a yellow belt. She is positioned in the center of the room, with her arms slightly outstretched. The room features a blue couch against the wall, a small round table with a vase of flowers, and two arched windows with colorful stained glass. The floor is painted in a yellowish hue, and the walls are a mix of yellow and brown tones. The artist's signature "Frank 25" is visible in the bottom right corner. The overall style of the drawing is whimsical and somewhat abstract, with visible brush strokes and a playful use of color.
