At least 2,000 people attend an anti-government protest at Habima square in Tel Aviv, as the Israel-Hamas war nears its 100 days mark. The war, in which Israel has vowed to destroy Hamas, began when the militants launched an unprecedented attack on October 7 that resulted in about 1,140 deaths in Israel, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official figures. Israel's relentless bombardment of Gaza since then has killed at least 23,843 people, mostly women and children, according to the latest toll reported by the health ministry of the Hamas-run Gaza Strip.

People waved rainbow flags and danced to celebrate the LGBTQ+ Pride in Romania's capital city Bucharest on Saturday. The march was attended by around 25,000 people, making it the biggest since the first pride parade took place in the country in 2005, according to ACCEPT NGO, one of the organisers. In May, the European Court of Human Rights ruled that EU member Romania, which does not allow same-sex marriage, was violating the rights of couples by refusing to recognise their unions. IMAGES
