An Indian family of four tragically froze to death while attempting to cross the US-Canada border in January 2022. The Patel family, including two young children, were part of a larger group relying on smugglers who promised safe passage. Wearing inadequate clothing for the harsh winter conditions, they succumbed to the extreme cold.

On November 15, AP photographer Hassan Ammar captured dramatic images of a rocket striking an 11-storey residential building in Beirut, followed by a massive explosion. Ammar, who grew up near the building, rushed to the scene after Israel issued a warning targeting the structure. During Lebanon’s civil war, the building was on the front line. Human Rights Watch’s Richard Weir reviewed Ammar’s photos and identified the bomb as a Mk-84 with a JDAM tail kit.
