MAJORPhotos: Three years of Israel’s war on Gaza as tent cities spread amid ruin
Tent settlements are expanding across Gaza as families mourn the dead, tend to the wounded and face repeated displacement. Since Israel began what the article calls its genocidal war against Palestinians in October 2023, more than one in 10 of Gaza’s pre-war population has been killed or wounded by Israeli fire. Nearly all residents are homeless; despite a 2025 “ceasefire,” Israeli strikes continue, while restrictions on building materials hamper rebuilding and a reconstruction plan remains stalled amid disagreements with Hamas.

Three years of Israel’s sustained aerial and ground assault have devastated Gaza’s homes, infrastructure, public services and economy, transforming daily life for its roughly two million residents.

Flávio Bolsonaro won 47% in Brazil’s first presidential round, ahead of incumbent Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on 44.2%, putting him in pole position for the 25 October runoff. The result alarms climate and nature campaigners: although Lula’s administration has nearly halved Amazon deforestation, that record brought little electoral benefit. A Bolsonaro victory could dismantle environmental safeguards and expose Indigenous territories to illegal mining, logging and land grabbing, threatening Brazil’s biomes and the global climate.
