OS Conversations : Palestinians in Israel

Two women of Palestinian heritage living in Israel talk to BBC OS about how the Israeli-Gaza conflict is impacting their lives and identities.

Israel says it has targeted the homes of Hamas commanders, as fighting with Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip enters a 10th day. We've been hearing from different communities impacted by this conflict all week. Today, we speak to two childhood friends of Palestinian heritage who live in Jaffa in Israel. Our BBC World Service Middle East analyst will be on hand to explain some of what they share.

Dr Maria Sundaram an infectious disease epidemiologist in Ontario will answer questions about the pandemic.

And we hear from local people in Spain’s north African enclave of Ceuta where thousands of people from Africa are arriving, hoping to reach Europe.
