Israel concentrates forces in area contiguous to Gaza 3:52
(CNN Spanish) ––
The conflict in Israel and Gaza caught the world's attention this week, as violence escalated with bombings and missile launches in a historically disputed area, while claiming dozens of victims.
Simultaneously, on the other side of the world, the tensions in Colombia did not cease, when two weeks of protests against the government of Iván Duque have been completed.
And, as if that weren't enough, the week ending this Sunday, May 16, also surprised us with a monstrous fish with sharp, knife-sharp teeth.
Here are the most impressive videos of the week:

4. Tension in Colombia does not give truce
The protests in Colombia are now two weeks old: although a dialogue has been proposed - still without results - the tension is latent in the streets.
In fact, in one of the many events that the country has experienced, riots were registered by the Junior and River party in Barranquilla and at least seven people were injured.

Added to this is the shortage in some areas of the city of Cali, where there is a shortage of fuel and food.
Citizens had to queue for hours at gas stations and the price of some products has risen.
