Hospitals in Gaza are stopping all but emergency services as fuel runs out

Hospitals in Gaza are stopping all but emergency services as fuel runs out.

The UN Secretary-General has rejected accusations that he justified the Hamas attacks on Israel in his speech to the Security Council on Tuesday. The UN says its shelters in Gaza are overwhelmed with displaced people. Israel has blocked new fuel supplies reaching Gaza, but accuses Hamas of stockpiling hundreds of thousands of litres. We get more details from our correspondent in the region. 

In Gaza, health officials say that more than 750 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli air strikes in the space of 24 hours. The casualty figures given by Hamas officials - which have not been independently confirmed - have risen sharply in recent days. We hear from one resident who describes the missile attacks in Gaza City. 

We also bring together two Jewish women who are married to Palestinian men to tell us about the conversations they are having at home.

Hurricane Otis has made landfall on the coast of southern Mexico, bringing wind speeds of up to 270km/h. We speak to our regional expert about the news we have been getting so far. 

We find out why a dozen black models are boycotting Melbourne Fashion Week.
