We get the latest on the Israel-Hamas conflict

We get the latest on the Israel-Hamas conflict.

Desperately needed humanitarian aid is to be allowed into Gaza though an Israeli crossing for the first time since the war began on October the seventh. Until now aid has only been able to enter Gaza through the Rafah border crossing from Egypt – which can only process a limited number of vehicles. As Israel's attacks on Gaza intensify, Jerusalem has been targeted by rockets for the first time since the 30 October. We get more from our correspondent there. 

Female Iranian football fans were allowed into a stadium to watch a men’s game this week. We talk to BBC Persian’s sport journalist about what this means to the campaign to allow women into stadiums permanently. 

After people In Japan were left dangling in mid-air after a rollercoaster came to an emergency stop, we hear from people with similar experiences. 

Fighting in Sudan's civil war has spread to a new area south of Khartoum, where hundreds of thousands of displaced people had taken refuge. We speak to a family that has sought refuge in the city of Port Sudan.
