Misery deepens in Rafah as Israeli operation presses
Aid workers struggle to reach hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians in Rafah as food and supplies dwindle. About 360,000 people fled Rafah in the past week amid a broader displacement of roughly 1.0 to 1.3 million in Gaza, with crossings closed and aid hampered by ongoing Israeli bombardment and evacuation orders. The UN warns of a growing humanitarian crisis, with WFP distributing from limited stocks in Khan Younis and Deir al-Balah and only two partner bakeries operating inside Rafah.

Demolition clears Key Bridge span to free Dali ship
Crews used a controlled blast Monday to topple the largest remaining span of Baltimore's collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge. The Dali, grounded after losing power and hitting a bridge column on March 26, sits amid debris as the span collapsed into the water and sent waves toward the ship. The operation aims to refloat the vessel and restore port traffic, aiding thousands of workers and small businesses affected by the closure. Officials noted precision cuts and cautious sheltering of the Dali crew, which includes 20 Indians and one Sri Lankan, aboard the ship during the detonation.
