BBC World Service - Newsday, UN climate summit under pressure to include language on phasing out fossil fuels

A small number of petrostates, including Saudi Arabia, Russia and Iraq have pushed back.

The UN global climate talks have entered their final scheduled day but there has been outrage from activists after the latest draft declaration stopped short of calling for a phase-out of fossil fuels; negotiations to revise the agreement are underway. We go to Dubai to get the latest.   

Also as Israeli defence forces go deeper into Gaza, we speak to the deputy spokesperson of the US state department.
