Israel says it will evacuate babies from Gaza hospital

Doctors at Al-Shifa hospital warned babies were at risk of dying.

Doctors at Gaza's biggest hospital, Al-Shifa, have warned that patients, including babies, are at risk of dying because of lack of medical treatment. The Israeli military now says it'll evacuate babies to a "safer hospital" on Sunday. It's also denied it's besieging the hospital and says it's left open a corridor for those who want to flee.

We’ll have the latest on the Israel-Gaza conflict including the conclusion of an Arab-Muslim summit in Saudi Arabia, large-scale protests on the streets of London, and fears of an escalation in Lebanon.

Also in the programme: Pope Francis has dismissed a vocal Bishop in the United States; and a state of emergency has been declared in Iceland, after a series of earthquakes led to concerns that a volcanic eruption could be imminent.
