UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres says 'collective punishment of the Palestinian people in Gaza' must be stopped.

As the Israeli military presents the war cabinet with its plans for an assault along with a draft to evacuate the population on the southern Gazan city of Rafah, the UN warns of famine in the north of the territory.

Also in the programme: China has announced plans for a big increase in the pace of its space missions; and the Taliban authorities in Afghanistan have publicly executed a convicted murderer in a sports stadium.
