South African paralympian Oscar Pistorius released from prison on parole

South African paralympian Oscar Pistorius was released from prison on parole after serving eight and a half years for the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. We hear from her family's lawyer about their reaction.

Also on the programme: Israeli defence minister Yoav Gallant has set out a proposal about what should happen in Gaza once the fighting stops - but it hasn't been signed off by the Israeli government. And is North Korea's dictator grooming his young daughter to be his successor?
