BBC World Service - BBC News, Heavy shelling in Gaza Strip on 200th day of the war

Israel carries out some of its heaviest shelling in the north of the Gaza Strip

Two hundred days into the war in Gaza the Israeli military has carried out some of the heaviest shelling in weeks. Much of the bombardment took place in the north of the territory. Also, UN rights chief Volker Turk said he was “horrified” by the destruction of the Nasser and al-Shifa medical facilities in Gaza and the reports of mass graves discovered there. 

Also in the programme: Pro-Palestinian protests spread on US University campuses to the alarm of some Jewish students; and a new study finds that female doctors are better than male doctors.
