GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip -- A 33-year-old Gaza man says he has been duped into selling a valuable work by British graffiti artist Banksy for less than $200 to a local artist.The popular street artist is believed to have sneaked into Gaza earlier this year, leaving behind four murals, including one drawn on a metal door that depicted the Greek goddess Niobe cowering against the rubble of a destroyed house. The painting, titled Bomb Damage, was drawn on a door, the last remaining part of a two-story house belonging to the Dardouna family i adidas campus homme n northern Gaza.

Banksy s works have been valued as high as hundreds of thousands of dollars. I did not know that it was this valuable. I heard it can be sold for millions, Dardouna said. Now I want the door back.

The Gaza artist who bought the door, Belal Khaled, said he did not mean to trick anyone. He said he just wanted to protect the painting and had no intention of profiting.

Washington mdash; President Biden starts the first visit to the Middle East of his presidency with a monumental task: assuring uneasy Israeli and Saudi Arabian officials that he is committed to preventing Iran from becoming a nuclear power.Mr. Biden begins the visit Wednesday with a three-day stop in Israel, where officials say Iran s quickly evolving nuclear program is at the top of their agenda for talks with the U.S. president.

UNITED NATIONS -- For the first time since 1949, when Mao Zedong s Communist Party ejected the government and supporters of nationalist Chinese leader Chiang Kai-shek, the Presidents of China and Taiwan met in a historic one-on-one in Singapore. So why did Chinese President Xi Jinping and Taiwanese President Ma Ying-jeou decide the time was right Experts say it s more a matter of maintaining air max 2 a delicate status quo and keeping both economies strong than it is about making history or changing politics. The decades following the Chinese Civil War reveal the shifts in world power. Through the 1960 s, the Republi air max plus c of China in Taiwan continued to maintain China s seat at the United Nations and the government there maintained relations with hundreds of nations.
