The Israeli defence minister has said the IDF has broken through into 'the heart of Gaza City' - and that the leader of Hamas in the enclave, Yahya Sinwar, is 'surrounded in his bunker'. Israel also says it has killed Hamas's head of weapons.
We're joined now by Eylon Levy, an Israeli government spokesman, who is asked by Kay Burley about what steps are being taken to ensure civilians in Gaza are being kept safe. 'We're doing everything we can to get civilians out of harm's way, warning them for three weeks to evacuate temporarily for their safety, setting up humanitarian corridors that have been attacked by Hamas... facilitating the provision of aid through the Rafah border crossing with Egypt,' he says.
There ensues a debate with Burley over the specifics of international law, with Mr Levy insisting the focus should be on helping civilians evacuate, rather than criticising Israel. 'Anyone in the international community genuinely concerned for civilians should be helping and encouraging the evacuation... instead of criticising Israel for doing everything it can - more than any army in the history of warfare.'He concedes that civilian deaths are inevitable, as they have been in past wars.
