Israel is cutting off all deliveries of food, fuel and water to the Gaza Strip

Israel is cutting off all deliveries of food, fuel and water to the Gaza Strip.

Israel's Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said it would impose a "complete siege" on the territory. "No electricity, no food, no water, no gas - it's all closed," he said, adding that "we are fighting animals and are acting accordingly."

More than 700 people have been killed in Israel since Saturday, dozens of people were also kidnapped and Hamas claims four of the hostages were killed by air strikes in Gaza. More than 500 people have died in Gaza since Israel began striking the area. 

With the help of our regional expert, we answer the popular questions our audiences are asking while they search information about the Gaza-Israel conflict. 

We also bring together Israelis, who have been affected by the weekend’s attacks, to share what they have experienced, and hear how people in Gaza are preparing for more attacks from Israel.

Presenter: James Reynolds.
