More aid trucks to arrive in Gaza

The UN says Israel has given permission for around 100 aid lorries to enter Gaza.

The UN says Israel has given permission for around 100 aid lorries to enter Gaza. Israel has blocked all aid from entering the territory for the past 11 weeks, saying it was putting pressure on Hamas, which it accuses of stealing aid. We have the latest from our reporters in the region. Opinion is divided in Israel as to what should happen next. We hear a coversation with two Israelis who have different views on the government's approach.

On a recent trip, President Donald Trump pledged to lift all sanctions against Syria, saying it was now time for the country to move forward with "a chance at greatness". We ask people working in the hospitality sector if this signals a welcome new chapter for the country.
