While driving down an East Texas country road I spotted this scene. The autumn trees and the late afternoon sun made these golden bales of hay shine just a little bit more. Fortunately I had my camera with me. (c) James Q. Eddy Jr.

The latest on the Israel-Hamas war

WAMU 88.5 | By AC Valdez

Published October 23, 2023 at 7:30 AM CDT

10/21/2023 Rafah, Palestine. The UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) takes delivery of humanitarian aid from the first convoy of relief trucks arriving from the Egyptian side at the Rafah border in Rafah, Gaza, on October 21, 2023.

More than 1,400 people have been killed in Israel since the Hamas attack on Oct.7. On Monday, the Gaza Health Ministry said at least 5,087 Palestinians have been killed and 15,270 wounded. In the occupied West Bank, some 96 Palestinians have been killed and 1,650 wounded in violence.

Diplomatic efforts to secure hostages continue as world leaders meet to discuss the conflict and some are calling for a cease-fire.

Israel’s airstrikes on Gaza intensified this weekend, and humanitarian aid began to come in through the Rafah border crossing with Egypt.
