President Biden has indicated that a break in hostilities could be imminent.

US President Joe Biden has indicated that a ceasefire deal in Gaza could be within reach, however his comments have been met with scepticism in Israel and from Hamas. We assess the chances that a deal could be reached.

Also, four months into the war in Gaza, civilians are living with acute hunger and the constant fear of bombardment. The BBC has been following a day in the life of three people there. 

Also in the programme, a judge in Moscow has imposed a jail term on a prominent Russian human rights campaigner.
