Video shows US and Israeli hostages alive in Gaza

A review of the week with the latest news.

The US secretary of state Anthony Blinken is due to fly to Saudi Arabia for another round of talks with Arab leaders on how to achieve a ceasefire in Gaza and the release of Israeli hostages held by Hamas. Israel said a planned ground assault on the southern Gaza city of Rafah could be suspended if there was a hostage deal.

Also in the programme: In Gaza, Palestinians are desperate for a ceasefire and for aid - we hear from a journalist there; Australia's prime minister marches in solidarity with women against misogyny; and Palestinian artists at the Venice Biennale.

Joining presenter Paul Henley are Simon Robinson, executive editor at the news agency, Reuters, and Emily Taylor, chief executive of Oxford Information Labs, a UK-based cyber intelligence company and editor of Chatham House's Journal of Cyber Policy.
