The rowing centre which hosted the competition during the Athens 2004 Olympic Games is seen in the town of Schinias, east of Athens, July 24, 2014. Ten years after Greece hosted the
world's greatest sporting extravaganza, many of its once-gleaming Olympic venues have been abandoned while others are used occasionally for non-sporting events such as conferences
and weddings. For many Greeks who swelled with pride at the time, the Olympics are now a source of anger as the country struggles through a six-year depression, record
unemployment, homelessness and poverty. Just days before the anniversary of the Aug. 13-29 Games in 2004, many question how Greece, among the smallest countries to ever host the
Games, has benefited from the multi-billion dollar event. Picture taken July 24, 2014. REUTERS/Yorgos Karahalis (GREECE - Tags: SOCIETY SPORT POLITICS BUSINESS TPX IMAGES OF THE

Palestinians on an enduring end to a
war that devastated the Hamas-ruled
enclave, while Palestinians want an
Israeli-Egyptian blockade of Gaza to be
lifted and prisoners held by Israel to be
freed. Gaza officials say the war has
killed 1,874 Palestinians, most of them
civilians. Israel says 64 of its soldiers
and three civilians have been killed
since fighting began on July 8, after a
surge in Palestinian rocket salvoes into
Israel. REUTERS/Siegfried Modola
