Forty-nine people died of thirst in Niger when a truck broke down in a remote part of the Sahara desert, leaving its passengers stranded without water. Two survivors managed to walk 50 kilometres through the desert to a water source and then to the town of Assamaka, where they alerted authorities.
Two people, however, managed to survive after walking more than 50 kilometers on foot to a nearby water source and then onwards to Assamaka, where the pair were able to alert the authorities, the Agadez governorate said on social media. Assamaka is a main crossing point between Niger and Algeria, but also close to the Mali frontier.
Israel and Lebanon on Wednesday agreed to renew a ceasefire that would be contingent on the Iran-backed Hezbollah militant group holding back all fire, representatives said in a joint statement after talks in Washington, DC. Just hours after the deal was struck, air raid sirens sounded in northern Israel after an alert over a "suspicious aerial targetโ, but it was not clear where it was coming from.
Israel struck south Lebanon on Thursday and threatened new attacks on Beirut despite an announcement hours earlier that Israel and Lebanon had agreed to implement a conditional ceasefire.

Itโs been a week where, 90 days into the conflict and ceasefire stand-off with Iran, both Tehran and Washington are insisting time is on their side โ each claiming the other needs a deal more urgently.

Reports suggested a temporary agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz was close, before the US struck Iranโs southern coast, calling it self-defence against mine-laying boats and drone launch sites. Tehran threatened retaliation, US bases in Kuwait were targeted within hours, and talks over a wider deal continue tonight.
