The profound impact the genocide in Gaza is having on children and families. The UN reaches Gaza city after five attempts, in the north people are trapped under rubble for days awaiting help, access denied. Proof uncovered that the IDF use Palestinians as human shields and Irish members of EU ask why patients being burned in their beds is not a red line. US media shut down interviews.

Jon Faine talks republic in front of the first seat of parliament in Melbourne. Five minutes on X.
