Mourners Grieve Gaza Aid and Shelter Victims - Rafah

Palestinians mourn over the bodies of victims killed in airstrikes during a funeral in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip on July 31, 2025. Eighteen people were killed while waiting for humanitarian aid at a US aid distribution point in the Morag area of Rafah, according to local health officials. In a separate strike, six Palestinians were killed when a tent housing displaced persons was hit in the Mawasi area of Khan Yunis. The Gaza Strip has faced ongoing bombardment amid continued conflict, worsening the humanitarian situation and leaving civilians increasingly vulnerable. Funerals often turn into demonstrations of grief and protest, as families call for justice and an end to the violence. The latest casualties add to the mounting toll of a war that has displaced hundreds of thousands and crippled access to basic necessities across the enclave.

Handout photo dated November 27, 2008 Not far away from this close-up scene of the galley on the Space Shuttle Endeavour were nine astronauts and a cosmonaut eager to share a Thanksgiving meal to top off almost two weeks of joint activities, including an involved home improvement project on the International Space Station. Unlike most of their families and friends on Earth, who probably went through pains to prepare elaborate meals for this festive occasion, the STS-126 and Expedition 18 crewmembers merely needed add water to these prepared packets. Since 1973, astronauts have celebrated Thanksgiving in space, bringing a cherished tradition far beyond Earth. The first Thanksgiving in orbit took place aboard Skylab during the Skylab 4 mission, where astronauts Gerald Carr, Edward Gibson, and William Pogue marked the day with an improvised meal after a spacewalk. Over the years, this tradition has evolved, with crews on shuttles, space stations, and orbiters finding creative ways to honor the holiday. From shri
