JENIN CAMP, OCCUPIED WEST BANK -- JANUARY 31, 2024: A family member shows a video of Basel Al-Ghazzawi, who is partially paralyzed get help from a nurse, in an undated video before Basel was shot and killed alongside his brother Mohammad and a friend Mohammad Jalamna by Israeli agents disguised as medical staff, after they entered the Ibn Sina hospital on Jan 30th, to shoot and kill all three at close range in Jenin Camp, Occupied West Bank , Wednesday, Jan. 31, 2024. Israel celebrated the strike, which it said OneutralizedO a terrorist cell that had taken cover at the medical facility in order to plan an attack. But the raid on Ibn Sina hospital in the embattled West Bank city of Jenin has raised new questions about Israel's war conduct N and in particular its willingness to target civilian medical facilities. Israel is already under scrutiny as the International Court of Justice weighs a case alleging it violated the genocide convention in its ongoing assault on the Gaza Strip, where Israel has frequently targeted schools and hospitals in what it is says is an attempt to root out Hamas fighters. Several legal experts said it's likely that Tuesday's hospital attack violated international laws governing conduct during war, including one that prohibits combatants from posing as doctors or other civilians, and another that bars the killing of adversaries who have been wounded or incapacitated. They pointed out, too, that because Israel may not technically be at war in the West Bank, the killings could be considered as extrajudicial assassinations. (MARCUS YAM / LOS ANGELES TIMES)

CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA, CA - JANUARY 12, 2024 - - Hans Lehmann, 91, collects his mail from his post office box at the post office in downtown Carmel-By-The-Sea on January 12, 2024. Because there are no street addresses in the city, Lehmann, who has lived in Carmel since 1939, has to pick up his mail from his post office box. He finds the post office a good place to meet friends, enjoy a conversation and embrace the strong sense of community on his daily trips. Carmel-By-The-Sea has never had street addresses - except the post office - and does not have at-home postal delivery. The town is now debating about getting addresses because it's hard to get packages, and Medicare coverage, when you don't have a physical address. More places don't accept PO Boxes.
