BBC World Service - Newshour, The Gazans killed as Israel freed hostages

More than 70 Gazans killed as Israel freed two hostages

Dozens of Palestinian families lost their loved ones as the Israeli ministry rescued two hostages.

More than 70 people were reported killed on the night when the Israeli ministry rescued two hostages on 12 February. 

We hear from the bereaved Palestinian families who lost their loved ones as shrapnel ripped through their tents. 

Also in the programme: A large number of Russian troops are believed to have been killed in an apparent Ukrainian strike in Donetsk; and a stinking shipload of thousands of sick cattle stuns Cape Town and kicks off an animal rights row.
