Reaction from Israel to Trump's Gaza takeover plan

We speak to people in Israel about President Trump's plan to take control of Gaza.

There's been international criticism of President Trump's call for the US to take control of Gaza and displace its entire Palestinian population. By contrast, far right politicians in Israel have welcomed Mr Trump's proposal.

We hear two different views from Israel, and we speak to two people in Gaza about the US plan.

We also speak to BBC Arabic about the reaction in the region geographically closest to Gaza.

We also hear messages from people around the world reacting to President Trump's Gaza plan.

The Taliban has suspended Afghanistan's only women’s radio station. We speak to our colleague from BBC Afghan.

Presenter: Mark Lowen.
