About this episode
Why is the border crossing Gaza’s lifeline?
Thousands gather near the Gaza-Egypt border desperate to leave, but the frontier remains closed and humanitarian aid shut out.
Lyse and Jeremy give us an update from Southern Israel where the situation remains tense.
And we hear about the intense diplomatic efforts by the US secretary of state to prevent the situation spreading.
