From displaced Palestinian families struggling in the cold winter in makeshift tents in Gaza, Christmas celebrations in Ukraine amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, to the historic gathering of more than one million people in Dhaka welcoming home Bangladesh’s opposition leader Tarique Rahman after his 17-year self-imposed exile, here is a look at the week in photos.

Palestinian families displaced during Israel’s war on Gaza now inhabit a makeshift “tent city” erected on the sand in the Khan Younis refugee camp in the southern Gaza Strip. Their homes destroyed by the conflict, they join the majority of Gaza’s 2.4 million residents who have been forced to flee multiple times throughout the war. As winter sets in, the conditions in these tent encampments are triggering grave humanitarian concerns. [AFP]
