On Monday, photos and videos surfaced on social media of what appeared to be a damaged, burning Abrams tank. And numerous Soviet-era tanks on both sides of the war, as well as more modern Russian tanks, have also fallen to drones.

Russia's claimed kill of an M1 Abrams tank comes just days after Ukraine published what it said was the first video of an Abrams tank in action.

Please, I don’t want to bring back memories,’” Mr. Abutaha said. “Oblivion, forgetfulness, is a blessing from God.”Soon after the strike, he said, he and his family fled to Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, at the time one of the last facilities in the Gaza Strip still offering medical care and shelter to the displaced.

Edge AI, or AI at the edge, refers to the utilization of AI in edge computing, and its growth should have an immense effect on the technology world over the next few years. Given this outlook, Abrams named some of the top companies across technology sectors situated to benefit from AI at the edge. UBS projects more upside ahead, viewing both stocks among the top semiconductors as best situated to benefit from Edge AI. Memory chipmakers also look poised to benefit from Edge AI as devices on the edge require more computing power.

There were children forced to appear in hostage videos, and others forced to watch gruesome footage of Hamas’s Oct. 7 terrorist attack. As some hostages captured that day in the Hamas-led assault on southern Israel have been released, they have relayed these and other stories of their captivity to family members. The New York Times interviewed the family members of 10 freed hostages, who spoke on behalf of their relatives to relay sensitive information.
