BEIN JBEIL, South Lebanon — For days, tensions have been high along the Lebanese border with Israel, with frequent exchanges of fire between heavily armed militants in Lebanon and the Israeli army.These skirmishes have prompted fears that the violence could escalate into a bigger confrontation.Not far from the frontier on the Lebanese side, in the southern town of Bein Jbeil, there was quiet in the streets.

Egypt agrees to allow first aid trucks into Gaza as Palestinians reel from hospital blast
TEL AVIV — The killing of at least 1,400 people in Israel by Palestinian Hamas militants from Gaza and the taking of more than 100 hostages have reverberated around the world, notably in central and eastern Europe, with its strong Jewish connections and memories of the Holocaust.There, the taking of one man has caused particular distress and sorrow.Alex Danzig, a 75-year-old scholar and historian of the Holocaust, has spent the last 30 years working for Yad Vashem, Israel's Holocaust remembrance centre, educating Jews and Poles about what happened in the later years of World War Two.But he lives in Nir Oz, a kibbutz in southern Israel that is close to Gaza, and hasn't been seen or heard from by his family since 7 October, the day the attackers came.There's a bitter irony...
