  • Anger in Israel as pressure mounts on Hamas to return hostage bodies
    Israel's military says one of the four bodies returned by Hamas on Tuesday is not that of a former hostage. It said Hamas had to make all efforts to return the remains of those taken on October seventh. The process has been impacted by the devastation in Gaza, with some bodies believed to be under rubble. Palestinians in Gaza are reported to be stockpiling food, amid anxiety that the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas will unravel -- and the flow of aid will stop.Also in the programme: Kenya has declared a week of national mourning for the former prime minister Raila Odinga, who's died at the age of 80; a sumo tournament is taking place outside Japan for the first time in 34 years; and the leader of one of China's biggest underground churches, Jin Mingri, has been detained, his daughter gives us the latest.(Photo: Red Cross vehicles transport the bodies of deceased hostages who had been held in Gaza.
