摘要
About 20 trucks carrying food, water and medical supplies may be allowed to enter Gaza in the coming days. But leading humanitarian organisations warn the aid delivery will only be a drop in the ocean.
Israel cut electricity, most water and stopped deliveries of food and medicine to Gaza following an attack by Hamas militants on 7 October. Since then, Gaza's 2.1 million residents have been rapidly running out of basic supplies.
We'll hear from a former UN official who dealt with aid distribution in Gaza in the past and a senior figure in the US foreign policy establishment talks us through what might happen next.
Also in the programme: The US has eased sanctions on Venezuela - why has it done that? And Russia's foreign minister is in North Korea - are North Korean arms now flowing to the Ukraine conflict?
