DRC Refugees In Bugarama - Rwanda

Displaced people from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are seen in the town of Bugarama in neighboring Rwanda, on Dec. 5, 2025. The March 23 Movement (M23) rebels have expanded their operations across several areas of South Kivu Province in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) over the past days, even as the DRC and Rwanda signed in Washington a peace deal hailed as a major step toward de-escalation in the region. Residents in the affected areas reported a FARDC pullback and the displacement of civilians fleeing the new combat zones. Hundreds of families have arrived in Uvira, while others from Kamanyola, a strategic crossroad in the province, crossed into Rwanda to escape shellfire.

A Bulldozer Is Used In Search Of Bodies Of Israeli Hostages - Gaza

An excavator is used in search of bodies of Israeli hostages in the southern Gaza Strip city of Khan Younis, on Oct. 17, 2025. Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, said on Sunday that it had found the body of an Israeli hostage during ongoing search operations in the Gaza Strip, adding that it would hand it over "when field conditions allow." The group said that current field conditions, including the presence of Israeli forces and sporadic exchanges of fire in some areas, have complicated efforts to recover and transfer the body safely. Al-Qassam warned that any new Israeli escalation "would obstruct the ongoing search, excavation, and recovery operations, and delay the occupation's retrieval of its soldiers' bodies."
