Gaza War: US drafts UN resolution calling for ceasefire

BBC World Service - Newsday, Gaza War: US drafts UN resolution calling for ceasefire

Washington has previously avoided using the word "ceasefire" during votes on the war

Washington has previously avoided using the word "ceasefire" during votes on the war between Israel and Hamas.

The United States has put forward a draft resolution at the United Nations calling for a ceasefire in Gaza as soon as feasible and Israel is preparing to send its forces intro the crowded southern town of Rafah, on the border with Egypt - we hear from Cairo.

Four months after the Hamas attacks on Israel, some Israelis have returned home but many remain in temporary shelters. Our reporter went from southern Israel to the border with Lebanon.

And we'll talk to a friend of the Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who died in an Arctic prison.
