BERLIN (Reuters) - Swiss winger Ruben Vargas answered his captain's half-time call against Italy in their Euro 2024 last-16 clash at the Olympiastadion, scoring seconds after the break to give his side a 2-0 win that saw them through to the quarter-finals.

"It was the last legacy I have from my mother, who passed away years ago. I have never thought of getting rid of it, but my children are starving, and I need money to buy them a little food," Samia said. In March, an Israeli airstrike targeted a group of locals in a Khan Younis market. Samia's husband was in the market and lost his right leg in the attack. This devastating injury took away the family's primary source of income.

"We have to escape from one place to another just to survive," she told Xinhua, adding that her husband was killed by an Israeli airstrike in Rafah city four months ago. To survive the endless displacement, Alia had no choice but to sell her jewellery one by one.
