Israel issues fresh Gaza warning

Israel increases airstrikes on Gaza and West Bank ahead of anticipated ground offensive against Hamas

Israel increases airstrikes on Gaza and West Bank ahead of anticipated ground offensive in the next phase of its war against Hamas. The UN's humanitarian chief says ongoing negotiations could see aid allowed into Gaza for a second day. We speak to a Gaza resident and an Israeli politician about the situation.

Also on the programme: Belarussian opposition leader Svetlana Tikhanovskaya on how she is trying to keep her country's situation in people's minds; and a new documentary film shows the often desperate attempts of people from North Korea to flee the secretive and authoritarian communist country.

Julian Worricker is joined by two guests Jeremy Shapiro, Director of research at the European Council on Foreign Relations and Jane Kinninmont who is policy and impact director at the European Leadership Network.
