Israel-Hamas conflict: Calls for more aid

Aid agencies call for more aid to Gaza.

Hamas says several of its leaders have been killed in the continuing Israeli bombardment of Gaza. Twenty lorries are waiting to enter from Egypt to Gaza but aid agencies say that's not enough. We speak to our correspondents in the region and hear from residents in Gaza. We also go to Egypt where officials say they're building the infrastructure needed to distribute supplies.

Amid claims and counterclaims about the blast at a hospital in Gaza, we hear from our chief international correspondent and Middle East bureau chief about the challenges of covering the story.

We speak to an Israeli couple who survived the 7 October attack but lost two family members.

We discuss reports that the heads of one of China's top property companies have fled the country. Country Garden faces losses in the billions of dollars.

Presenter: James Reynolds.
