Israeli military strikes killed at least 60 people in the Gaza Strip on Thursday, Palestinian medics said, as the United States and Arab mediators pushed for a ceasefire deal and U.S. President Donald Trump visited the Middle East.
Most of the victims, including women and children, were killed in Khan Younis in southern Gaza in airstrikes that hit homes and tents, they said.

L'immagine è un poster promozionale per l'elezione del 8 e 9 giugno, con il titolo "IO VOTO" in caratteri grandi e bianchi su sfondo verde. In basso, su sfondo giallo, c'è un disegno di un cane con un corpo umano che sta depositando un foglio di voto in una scatola elettorale. Il cane ha un'espressione felice e un collare giallo con un'etichetta. Due bolle di testo sono presenti: una a sinistra che dice "E a quelli che invitano a stare a casa?" e una a destra che risponde "Gli si piscia sullo zerbino." La scatola elettorale ha il simbolo della Repubblica Italiana. L'immagine utilizza un stile cartoon per trasmettere un messaggio di partecipazione e responsabilità civile.
