Hello and welcome to NewsHour from the BBC World Service.
We're coming to you live from London.
I'm James Menendez.
And we're going to begin today in the Middle East with what's happening in Gaza and also the occupied West Bank.
Despite reports that a deal for another ceasefire and release of Israeli hostages may be close,
it has been a particularly bloody 24 hours in the Gaza Strip,
with some 150 Israeli airstrikes and also reports of shootings at aid distribution points.
The Hamas-run health ministry there is saying that dozens of Palestinians have been killed overall,
among them a prominent surgeon at Gaza's Indonesia hospital.
Thank you.
The UN special rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territory says war crimes are being committed in Gaza.
And in a new report, she accuses dozens of companies,
some well-known multinationals, of being complicit in those.
We'll be speaking to her in a few minutes.
But first, let's head to Jerusalem.
And our correspondent, Ioni Wells.
Ioni, just tell us first of all about that surgeon and the hospital,
the Indonesian hospital where he worked.
What happened to him?
Well, Dr. Marwan Sultan was a surgeon, a prominent surgeon in Gaza.
