BBC World Service - Weekend, EU's top diplomat condemns killing of Palestinians in Israeli military operation

Four hostages rescued in Gaza as Gaza hospitals say scores killed in Israeli strikes

The EU's top diplomat, Josep Borrell, has strongly condemned the killing of Palestinians in the Israeli military operation to rescue four hostages held by Hamas from a refugee camp in central Gaza. The Hamas-run health ministry says more than two hundred people were killed but Israel disputes the figure.

Also in the programme: We will discuss what the humbling of Narendra Modi in this week's election will do to how he governs; and we interview a now 100 year old world war two code-breaker and her memories of D Day 80 years ago.

Joining the presenter Luke James, our guests are Rosa Freedman, Professor of Law, Conflict and Global Development at the University of Reading here in the UK, and Andreas Østhagen, a senior researcher on the Arctic at the Fridtjof Nansen Institute in the Norwegian capital, Oslo.
