Gaza in 'total chaos' says BBC reporter

BBC World Service - Newshour, Gaza in 'total chaos' says BBC reporter

Israeli airstrikes on Gaza at a scale and intensity 'never seen before'

There has been a blackout of communications in Gaza since Friday night. The Israeli military is intensifying its bombing of Gaza and says its troops and tanks remain on the ground. We hear from our reporter in southern Gaza, a medic who has not heard from colleagues since last night, and an Israeli government spokesperson.
 
Also on the programme: we go to Taiwan where celebrations for the largest annual Pride event in Asia are in full swing; and we hear about a BBC investigation that has revealed how people-smugglers, selling illegal routes to Europe from Pakistan, are luring potential customers via social media.
