Gaza: Fears in Rafah over Israeli strikes
We hear from residents in Gaza after more people were killed in Israeli air strikes.
Britain’s Foreign Secretary, David Cameron, has urged Israel to stop and think seriously before taking further military action in Gaza’s overcrowded city of Rafah. He was speaking after dozens of Palestinians were killed in an operation to rescue two Israeli hostages. We hear from residents in Gaza and speak to our Middle East regional editor in the newsroom.
We hear tributes to the men’s world record holder, Kenya’s Kelvin Kiptum, who has died in a road accident.
Ivory Coasts win at Africa Cup of Nations football tournament was a particularly emotional moment for the team's striker Sebastien Haller but not just because he scored the winning goal. The final took place just over a year since the Borussia Dortmund player announced he had overcome testicular cancer, after being diagnosed when he was 28. We speak to two testicular cancer survivors who know too well the stigma around talking about the disease for men and about the benefits of sport in the recovery process.
