ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Verify on Gaza 'mass casualty' incident

The UN Secretary-General has called for an independent investigation into the incident in Gaza.

ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Verify uses open-source intelligence, satellite imagery, fact-checking and data analysis to help report complex stories. Today they have been looking at the latest open-source material coming out of Gaza to investigate conflicting claims after 21 people were killed in what's been called a "mass casualty" incident by the Red Cross. We walk to the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Verify team to find out about their findings. We also find out what information they have been able to confirm about a series of major strikes on Russia by Ukraine over the weekend.

We speak to a local journalist in the Nigerian town of Mokwa where more than 200 people have lost their lives and 500 more are missing following the worst floods in 60 years in the area.

Top secret intelligence files uncovered by the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ confirm for the first time that missing American journalist Austin Tice was imprisoned by the regime of the now-deposed Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. We speak to our reporter who has been investigating.

We also bring together three Syrian students to share their hopes for their country.
