Israel confirms hit on ambulance in Gaza

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

Israel's military has confirmed it struck an ambulance leaving a hospital in Gaza City. The Hamas-led health authorities in Gaza say a medical convoy was hit, causing many casualties. Israel's government tells us it was targeting Hamas fighters. Also on tonight's programme: The husband of the jailed Iranian activist who won this year's Nobel Peace Prize tells us she is being refused urgent medical care because she won't wear a hijab. And it's a landmark of our motoring heritage, but now Britain's oldest service station, Watford Gap, is facing demolition.
