BBC World Service - BBC OS, Palestinians on relatives killed in Gaza

We hear from Palestinians who have lost family members from Israel's air strikes on Gaza

We hear from Palestinians who have lost family members from Israel's air strikes on Gaza.

We hear a conversation between two Palestinians, Yousef Al-mqayyad in Turkey and Dr Ibrahim Khadra in Scotland, who are mourning their family members killed in Israel's air strikes on Gaza.

The Rafah crossing from Gaza to Egypt has opened for the first time since Israel's siege began more than three weeks ago. At least 20 Palestinian patients, and 110 dual nationals, have left Gaza so far. Our correspondent in Cairo in Egypt Amal Saeed explains more about what's happening at the crossing. 

Bolivia has broken diplomatic ties with Israel - the BBC's Guillermo Olmo clears up why. 

Pakistan has started to arrest Afghans as the country begins a nationwide crackdown on foreign nationals it says are in the country illegally. Shir Aqa Karimi from BBC Afghan explains more about what is happening today and we hear the views of people inside Pakistan.

Presenter: James Reynolds.
