With the ceasefire in effect in Lebanon, thousands of people displaced by Israel's strikes and forced evacuation orders are going back to their homes.
But for many, the return has brought heartbreak rather than relief.
They have found devastation - destroyed homes, buildings and facilities.
The US-brokered truce, which came into effect on Friday, is set to last 10 days and is meant to open the door to more talks.
Israel and Hezbollah have warned residents against going back during the pause in fighting.
On the ground, the truce remains fragile as Israeli forces are still present in parts of the south.

Fishing in Gaza is a main source of food and income for thousands of families. But Israel’s war has damaged almost all the boats in the strip, while the military prevents those that remain from going far from shore.
That’s not been enough to stop some Palestinians from getting their boats ready for the water.
Al Jazeera’s Ibrahim Al Khalili reports from Gaza City, Palestine.

A fragile ceasefire between the US and Iran holds - but the information war intensifies. At the centre: the Strait of Hormuz, where competing US and Iranian narratives have collided.
During any truce, even when the bombs stop falling, the information war goes on. Moments like this test journalism. Because the job is not just to report on the messaging coming from all sides - but to decode and debunk it if necessary.

The Iranian diaspora in the media: Interview with Narges Bajoghli
The Iranian diaspora contains a wide range of often conflicting views. But judging by its representation in mainstream Western media, one might assume the dominant position is support for the war.
We speak to Narges Bajoghli about how diaspora voices are weaponised in coverage of Iran.

Palestinian Prisoners' Day is observed every year on April the 17th to highlight the conditions of those held in Israeli jails.
The number of imprisoned Palestinians has doubled since Israel's war on Gaza began in October 2023.
More than 9,600 Palestinians are currently detained in Israel and the occupied West Bank.
The number of administrative detainees, those held without charge or trial, has risen to more than 3,500.
That's up from 1,300 before the war.
The number of children has exceeded 350 with about half of them held without trial or charge.
And since 2023, at least 89 Palestinians have died in Israeli detention, reportedly due to hunger, medical negligence, and torture.
Rights groups say this is part of a wider system of repression.

The war in Iran is sending shockwaves through global supply chains, pushing up raw material costs and squeezing businesses across China.
From supermarkets to factories, companies are feeling the pressure as oil and gas prices rise due to disruptions linked to the Strait of Hormuz.
Common goods like plastics, packaging, and chemicals are becoming more expensive as energy costs climb. China’s manufacturing sector—already under strain from weak consumer spending—is now facing additional inflationary pressure.
One plastics vendor in Beijing says costs have jumped more than 25% since the conflict began, forcing businesses to reconsider pricing and profit margins.
Al Jazeera's Katrina Yu, reports from Beijing.

Uncertainty continues around the Strait of Hormuz as Iran and the United States give conflicting statements about whether the key shipping route is open.
Donald Trump insists the naval blockade will remain until a peace deal is reached, while Iranian officials argue the strait is only open under strict conditions and Iranian authorization.
At the same time, both sides remain divided over Iran’s enriched nuclear material, with Washington claiming it will be transferred and Tehran rejecting the idea entirely.
Despite talk of progress, Iranian sources say negotiations are still at an early stage, with only a framework being discussed , not a final agreement.
