Israel orders evacuations in northern Gaza as Trump calls for war to end

-
By Nidal Al-Mughrabi Reuters  The Israeli military ordered Palestinians to evacuate areas in northern Gaza on Sunday before intensified fighting against  Hamas , as U.S. President Donald Trump called for an end to the  war  amid renewed efforts to broker a ceasefire. “Make the deal in Gaza, get the hostages back,”  Trump  posted on his Truth Social platform early on Sunday. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was due to hold talks later in the day on the progress of Israel’s offensive. A senior security official said the military will tell him the campaign is close to reaching its objectives, and warn that expanding fighting to new areas in Gaza may endanger the remaining Israeli hostages. But in a statement posted on X and text messages sent to many residents, the military urged people in northern parts of the enclave to head south towards the Al-Mawasi area in Khan Younis, which Israel designated as a humanitarian area.

New Panera menu coming in April with larger portions

-

ST. LOUIS -- Panera Bread is updating its menu with lots of new dishes that customers already love, like soups, salads, sandwiches, and mac & cheese. The St. Louis based chain says that it will be offering more food for your money with bigger portions and lower prices. This new menu will be available at all Panera restaurants across the country starting April 4th.

They're adding nine new items and making twelve old favorites even better. You'll find options like the Tomato Basil BLT sandwich, Ranch Cobb Salad, and Mediterranean Greens with Grains salad, all for under $10. Plus, they're adding more chicken and steak to salads and sandwiches.

Here's a sneak peek at some of the new items hitting the menu on April 4th:

  • Toasted Italiano Sandwich
  • Chicken Bacon Rancher Sandwich
  • Ciabatta Cheesesteak Sandwich
  • Tomato Basil BLT Sandwich
  • Mediterranean Chicken Greens with Grains Salad
  • Southwest Chicken Ranch Salad
  • Balsamic Chicken Greens with Grains Salad
  • Ranch Cobb Salad
  • Bacon Mac & Cheese
  • Panera
  • Panera
  • Panera
  • Panera

In the early days, Panera, once known as the St. Louis Bread Company, distinguished itself with its commitment to quality bread. Founded in 1987 in Kirkwood, Missouri, it prided itself on crafting everything in-house. Founder Ken Rosenthal emphasized the process required for perfect sourdough, highlighting the challenge for large commercial bakeries to replicate its artisanal qualities.

The name and the menu have changed a lot over the past 37 years. Now, the company once known for its bread is dealing with two deaths over charged lemonade. A recent essay in The Nation links the company's story with many other companies obsessed with growth.

Keep an eye out for more updates throughout March, and if you're a MyPanera member, you'll get exclusive sneak peeks before the official launch in April.

Israel-Hezbollah attacks continue despite international pressure for ceasefire

-
By Timour Azhari and James Mackenzie Reuters  Israel rejected global calls on Thursday for a ceasefire with the Hezbollah movement, defying its biggest ally in Washington and pressing ahead with strikes that have killed hundreds in Lebanon and heightened fears of an all-out regional war. Despite Israel’s stance, the U.S. and France sought to keep prospects alive for an  immediate 21-day  truce they proposed on Wednesday, and said negotiations continued, including on the sidelines of a United Nations meeting in New York. An Israeli warplane struck the edges of the capital Beirut, killing two people and wounding 15, including a woman in critical condition, Lebanon’s health ministry said. That took deaths overnight and on Thursday to 28 and over 600 since Monday. The strike killed the head of one of Hezbollah’s air force units, Mohammad Surur, Hezbollah said, the latest senior Hezbollah commander to be targeted in days of assassinations among the group’s top ranks.

By Monica Machicao and Daniel Ramos Reuters Wildfires in Bolivia have burned through more than 10 million hectares (24.7 million acres) this year, mostly in the country’s tropical east, smashing records for its worst-ever fire season and scorching an area the size of Iceland or Cuba. The new figures released on Monday by non-governmental organization Tierra Foundation represent the equivalent of nearly 19 million American football fields. Fires in recent months have propelled Bolivia past devastating fire years in 2010 and 2019. Santa Cruz, a wealthy farming region in the country’s eastern lowlands near Brazil, has been the hardest hit, accounting for almost 7 million hectares of the total, followed by the nearby department of Beni, with 3 million hectares. “What’s happened in recent months in eastern Bolivia, and will continue to occur at least through October, is a disaster of a magnitude unprecedented in the country,” Juan Pablo Chumacero, researcher at the Tierra Foundation, to...
