Fighting around Gaza’s main hospital

Doctors accuse Israeli forces of shooting at people trying to flee Al-Shifa hospital in the north of Gaza. The IDF say they will transfer babies from the paediatric wing to hospitals in southern Gaza.

Also on the programme: How the issue of abortion rights in the US could be a boost to the Democrats’ election fortunes; and the orchestra trying to bridge divides in the Middle East by bringing Arab and Jewish musicians together.

Joining Paul Henley to discuss all this and more are Jennifer Cassidy, lecturer in diplomatic studies at the University of Oxford, and Ian Leslie, a writer and author of books on human behaviour.
