More than 40 Palestinians are dead after weeks of protests on the Gaza-Israel border, where Israeli troops have sometimes used live fire — including on Friday, when some protesters rushed a fence.

Survivors and victims' descendants traveled from around the world to the Nazi death camp, at a time when Polish politicians are pushing controversial Holocaust legislation.

Israel's defense minister alleged a photojournalist fatally shot at a Gaza protest was a Hamas member. But the U.S. said he had passed a vetting process with no ties to militants.

This brings the total number of dead to more than 27 since last week. On Friday, thousands of Palestinians once again gathered to demonstrate for the right to return to lands in today's Israel.

Hamas encouraged Palestinians to protest. Some believe it wants to distract Gazans from hardships like unemployment and power cuts. But many are protesting precisely because of these frustrations.

The revelation confirms long-held suspicions that the raid destroyed what Israel believed to be a nuclear reactor. Israeli officials made clear they intend this announcement to send a message to Iran.

In a meeting with Israel's prime minister, Trump appeared to be conflating the price tag for a permanent embassy and a temporary upgrade.
