Hassan Nofal, 53, who was displaced by the Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip, holds the keys to his home that he was forced to leave with his family at a makeshift tent camp in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, Thursday, July 4, 2024. Over nine months of war between Israel and Hamas, Palestinian families in Gaza have been uprooted repeatedly, driven back and forth across the territory to escape the fighting. Each time has meant a wrenching move to a new location and a series of crowded, temporary shelters. (AP Photo/Abdel Kareem Hana)

Members of the Ethiopian National Defense Force who were captured by Tigray forces gather inside a prison as prisoners of war, in Mekele, capital of the Tigray region of northern Ethiopia, July 6, 2021. Debretsion Gebremichael, Tigray’s president, said more than 6,000 Ethiopian soldiers and officers had been detained. “We are committed to keep them well as long as they are with us,” he said. “And after a while, yes, our plan is ... they have to be free, wherever they want.” For the prisoners of war, many of whom the Tigray leaders have said will be released, conditions are challenging because of the destruction that Ethiopian and allied forces waged for months against almost all health centers across Tigray. (AP Photo)
