In this episode of Global News Today, presented by Tom Burges Watson, we bring you the latest on Gaza where Israel has issued new evacuation orders ahead of a planned military offensive. Thousands of Palestinians are fleeing Gaza City as the Israeli army is set to intensify operations, prompting growing international concern over the humanitarian situation on the ground.

We examine the unfolding crisis with on-the-ground reporting, satellite imagery, and firsthand accounts from civilians and aid workers caught in the crossfire. As the pressure mounts, the United Nations warns of a worsening catastrophe, with limited access to food, water, and medical care for those unable to flee.

We feature an exclusive interview with a former Israeli prime minister who shares insight on Israel’s military strategy, the objectives behind the latest planned offensive, and the broader political implications for the region.
