BBC World Service - Newshour, Israel-Gaza: Six months on

Today marks six months after the Hamas attacks that triggered the current conflict

Israeli army official says military has pulled all troops out of southern Gaza exactly six months after the Hamas attacks that triggered the current conflict.

A new round of ceasefire talks between Israel and Hamas are due to begin today in Cairo, exactly six months after the Hamas attacks that triggered the current conflict. The Israeli military says it has withdrawn all ground troops on active operations from southern Gaza, after months of fighting in the Khan Younis area.

 

Thirty years after the killings began in Rwanda, President Paul Kagame has said the international community failed his country either through contempt or cowardice  during the genocide which led to the deaths of eight-hundred-thousand people.

 

Also in the programme: we’ll hear about the newly elected Ukraine-sceptic president of Slovakia; and a camera hidden in an Indonesian national park has captured footage of a very rare Javan rhinoceros calf - giving hope for one of the world's most endangered species.
