UK demands answers over Gaza aid deaths

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

The UK government is demanding answers as the three Britons killed in an Israeli air strike on an aid convoy in Gaza are named. We speak to the UN's top humanitarian official in the region, and ask the Israeli government whether it's concerned about alienating allies. Also on the programme: Should the addresses of local councillors to be kept secret - in order to prevent abuse and intimidation? We'll discuss. And we remember the grand storyteller of Guadeloupe - Maryse Condé - the only winner of the "Alternative Nobel Prize for Literature".
