RAFAH, GAZA - JANUARY 18: Children are seen amongst homes damaged by Israeli air strikes, on January 18, 2024 in Rafah, Gaza. Israel increased air raids in the south of the Gaza Strip, where medicines are expected for hostages held by Hamas and humanitarian aid for the Palestinian population. Despite Israel's recent troop drawdown in Gaza and the discussion of postwar plans by an Israeli cabinet minister, the country has continued its intensive bombardment of the Gaza Strip, particularly in the territory's south, as it seeks to destroy Hamas, the Palestinian militant group behind the Oct. 7 attacks. More than 24,000 people have been killed in Gaza in the last three months, according to the territory's health ministry, and most of the population has been displaced.(Photo by Ahmad Hasaballah/Getty Images)

China doubles down on moves to mend its economy and fend off a financial crisis
TOPSHOT - -- AFP PICTURES OF THE YEAR 2023 -- This aerial photo taken on March 31, 2023 shows deserted villas in a suburb of Shenyang in China's northeastern Liaoning province.. China's real estate industry grew at lightning speed from the late 90s, and was a major component of the country's turbocharged economic expansion. But with growth slowing and debts swelling, authorities cut off access to easy loans in 2020, pummelling the sector and causing a record-breaking slump last year. Cattle wander between the concrete shells of half-finished mansions in northeastern China, some of the only occupants of a luxury complex whose crumbling verandas and overgrown arches are stark symbols of a housing market crippled by its own excess.
