BBC World Service - Weekend, Gaza: Humanitarian situation deteriorates as fights continue

Gaza humanitarian crisis continues amid airstrikes as peace summit held in Cairo

The head of the UN is among the guests at what's being called a peace summit today in Cairo to discuss the Gaza crisis.

Egypt is holding a peace summit today that will bring together more than 20 world leaders to discuss the deepening conflict between Israel and the Hamas group in Gaza, as humanitarian crisis deteriorates. 

Also in the programme: A discussion on how to converse effectively; and why China may be taking a harder line against refugees from North Korea?

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss this and more are Celia Szusterman, a Latin America specialist at the Earendel Associates consultancy group and Scott Lucas who is a professor of international politics at University College Dublin.
