Gaza, building collapses hit in a raid: 21 dead including 12 children

A multi-storey building west of Gaza City collapsed during the night, causing 21 confirmed deaths including 12 children and dozens of missing people. The structure had already been seriously damaged by previous Israeli bombings and housed families of displaced Palestinians. According to the Palestinian Civil Protection, around 100 people, including 50 children, are still under the rubble. Rescuers dig with their bare hands to try to save the survivors, while the authorities denounce the presence of around 2,000 unsafe buildings in the Strip due to a lack of safe housing alternatives.

Argentina remembers the 1976 kidnapping known as 'The Night of the Pencils'

In Argentina we commemorate the kidnapping of ten high school students in La Plata on 16 September 1976 by the police of the military dictatorship, six of whom disappeared. Fifty years after the event, known as 'The Night of the Pencils', left-wing and human rights organizations remember it, while Javier Milei's government has not organized official commemorations. The University of La Plata awarded honorary degrees to three survivors and the families of the victims.
