GAZA STRIP, Palestinian Territories: Israeli troops pushed deeper into Gaza Tuesday, driving tanks and armored bulldozers through the rubble of shattered buildings, scouring for Hamas militants who carried out the worst attack in the country’s history.
As Israel stepped up its relentless bombing of Gaza, desperate Palestinian families scrabbled through debris searching for survivors and mourned over the bodies of some of the thousands killed, draped in white shrouds.
RIYADH: Masam, a Saudi project to clear landmines in Yemen, in the fourth week of October dismantled 688 mines planted by the Iran-backed Houthi militia.
Overseen by Saudi aid agency KSrelief, the project’s special teams destroyed 553 unexploded ordnance, 123 anti-tank mines, 10 anti-personnel mines, and two explosive devices.
The devices, planted indiscriminately by the Houthis across Yemen, pose a significant threat to the lives of innocent people, including children, women and the elderly.
