Condemnation of Israel for plan to take over Gaza City
There's been widespread condemnation -- internationally and inside Israel -- of the Israeli government ordering its military to take over Gaza City.
Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu's controversial plans for a new military push in the Gaza Strip have raised warnings from the army leadership, opposition from hostage families and concerns that more Palestinians will be killed.
We'll hear from a resident of the territory and find out why the Israeli government thinks an intensification of the war will work now.
Also in the programme: We'll hear about fresh allegations against the Australian woman who poisoned three of her relatives; and why some of France's most prestigious mineral water companies are up to their necks in crisis.
