BBC World Service - Weekend, Israel says it has launched raids inside Gaza

UN chief warns the situation in Gaza has reached a dangerous new low.

The United Nations has estimated that tens of thousands of Palestinians have fled northern Gaza in response to an Israeli demand to evacuate ahead of military operations against the Hamas militant group. Israel says they have seen a "significant movement of civilians towards the south" in response to Friday's order.

We will hear from one resident who’s followed Israel’s evacuation order, and fears he will never see his home again, and an Israeli man who tells us about the killers who tore his family apart last Saturday.

Joining Paul Henley in London, and Tim Franks in Jerusalem, to discuss this and more are Suzanne Lynch, Chief Brussels Correspondent and Associate Editor of Politico, and Nathan Thrall, Jerusalem-based journalist and author of A Day in the life of Abed Salama, a non-fiction book on the Israel-Palestine conflict.
