BBC World Service - Newshour, Aid agencies warn of starvation in Gaza

Reports emerge of famine conditions and starvation in the northern part of the enclave

Reports emerge of famine conditions and starvation in the northern part of the enclave.

As reports emerge of deaths by starvation and famine conditions in northern Gaza, US Vice President Kamala Harris calls for an immediate ceasefire and for more aid to enter the territory. Meanwhile, ceasefire negotiations stall as Israel declines to attend talks in Egypt. 

Also on the programme: the government declares a state of emergency in Haiti after armed gangs storm a Port au Prince prison, releasing nearly 4,000 inmates; and we hear from the teenagers who went back to Ukraine for their school prom.
