Israel destroys another high rise building in Gaza

Loading player...
Israel's military has urged all residents of Gaza City to evacuate to what it calls a humanitarian zone in the south, as it expands its military operation in the territory's largest urban area. For a second day running, it's destroyed a high-rise block. Israel says the tower was being used by Hamas, which the group denies.

Also in the programme: the Universal Postal Union says deliveries to the United States have plunged eighty percent in a week because of uncertainty over new tariff laws; Tesla offers Elon Musk a trillion-dollar pay package; and celebrating 60 years of the movie 'The Sound of Music'.
