The UN agency for Palestinian refugees warns that food supplies in Gaza are diminishing. One quarter of Lebanon is now covered by evacuation orders, and around 1.2 million people are displaced as Israel attempts to cripple Hezbollah. It comes as US President Joe Biden holds his first phone call with Benjamin Netanyahu in months. We’ll hear from Naftali Bennett, Israel’s former Prime Minister, about Israel’s options for its proposed retaliation against Iran. Also on the programme: We hear from a Florida resident choosing to stay put as what could be the biggest storm in a century approaches; and our science correspondent chats with Nobel Chemistry Laureate Sir Demis Hassabis about his prize.
