Listen now
Description
The United States has told Israel it may withhold some military assistance unless the provision of aid into Gaza is improved within 30 days. The demand was made in a letter sent to Israel's Defence Minister Yoav Gallant on Sunday. We get the reaction of Simcha Rothman - a member of the Religious Zionist party in Israel's ruling coalition - and the former US ambassador to Israel, Thomas Nides. On the eve of an assisted dying bill being introduced in parliament, we speak to the Archbishop of Canterbury. And as Thomas Tuchel is named as Gareth Southgate's successor, we ask if a German manager can end the decades of hurt for England.
