Can’t recall ever weeping over the death of a world leader—not out of indifference, just distance. But waking up to the news of Pope Francis passing, I wept. He left this world when his moral clarity & courage are needed most. Thank your holiness for renewing my faith. You'll be sorely missed.🕊️

More than 50,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s military campaign in the Gaza Strip, the enclave’s Health Ministry said Sunday — a grim indicator of the conflict’s continued lethality less than a week since Israel shattered a nearly two-month-old ceasefire.
Gaza death toll passes 50,000 in Israel’s war with Hamas, Health Ministry says
Gaza’s Health Ministry does not distinguish between civilians and combatants. Experts say the official death toll is probably an undercount.

Out of Gaza
We photographed badly wounded Gazans who made it out for treatment. Many can think of little but the dead they left behind. “We wanted to go with them, too,” one child told us.
