The Israeli army has announced the opening of a new aid crossing into Gaza, just as a US deadline demanding the improvement of humanitarian conditions expires. As humanitarian agencies say the situation is still desperate, we'll hear from the Israeli military. Also on the programme: The spiritual leader of the Anglican Church resigns over a child abuse scandal, the Russian doctor jailed for five years after a patient denounced her comments on the war in Ukraine; and one of the greatest paintings in the world may be about to become even greater!
