President Biden and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel treated criticism as a public dispute over Israeli tactics in Gaza warmed up.

Biden said in an interview that Netanyahu “needs to pay more attention to the innocent lives being lost” and that “he is hurting Israel more than he is helping Israel.”

Netanyahu responded in a later interview that if Biden thought Netanyahu was going against “the wishes of the majority of Israelis, and that this is detrimental to Israel’s interests, then he is wrong on both counts.”

The sparring comes as the UN and aid agencies warned of a looming famine in the besieged enclave of about 2.2 million residents. Health officials in Gaza reported that at least 25 people, most of them children, had died in recent days from malnutrition and dehydration.

A U.S. military ship was headed to Gaza with equipment to build a floating pier that could eventually be used to deliver about two million meals a day to the enclave. But the Pentagon has said the project could take weeks to complete. U.S. officials acknowledged that land aid deliveries were more effective, but Israel has significantly limited them.

News agencies said that a photo from Kensington Palace of Catherine, Princess of Wales had been manipulated by the palace. (The New York Times removed the photo an article about it, as do other news organizations.)

The claim that the photo was tampered with is likely to add to the mystery surrounding 42-year-old Catherine, who has not appeared in public since undergoing abdominal surgery almost two months ago.

The British news media has struggled to cover Catherine, torn between a public curious about news of a future queen and Britain’s habit of giving even public figures privacy in health matters.

a strict approach to education is becoming increasingly popular in British schools.

Supporters say the strict controls on student behavior benefit children from disadvantaged backgrounds. But some educators argue that while this approach produces academic results, it does not promote autonomy and critical thinking.
