Two women talk about the impact of the Israel-Gaza conflict on their lives

As Israel continues air strikes on Gaza and Palestinian militants fire rockets at Israeli cities, we hear the second of our conversations this week with people affected by the conflict. Today two Israeli Jewish women in the city of Lod talk about what it's been like for them since the conflict began. We'll also explain some the background and history of the conflict.

Also, people in India continue to suffer with the effects of the Covid outbreak in the country. So for a week we're going to bring you the account of a man in Delhi as he struggles to find oxygen for his father suffering from Covid-19.

And every day we are joined by a health expert to answer your questions about coronavirus. Today our guest is Dr Swapneil Parikh, an infectious disease researcher at the Kasturba Hospital of infectious diseases in Mumbai, India.
