In this episode, we hear how hard life inside Gaza is and how Israelis are also pressuring their government to stop the bombing.

We are joined by Marc Botenga, Belgian MEP from The Left, Evin Incir, Socialist MEP from Sweden and Peter Hefele, the policy director of the Wilfried Martens Centre for European Studies.
Israel-Hamas war
The panel discussed the EU role in the Israel-Hamas war.
A Dutch proposal to review the EU’s trade and cooperation with Israel over the situation in Gaza is gaining support among a group of member states. It will be discussed formally by foreign ministers in Brussels next week.
Antoine Renard from the World Food Programme - who is just back from Gaza - told "Brussels, my love?" that 'the road is coming to an end in Gaza'.
This week, the French President Macron slammed the government of Benjamin Netanyahu for not allowing water or medicine into the strip.
The Israeli government insists that the European hospital in Gaza that they bombed this week was a command centre for Hamas.
Habemus papam
The panel also reflected on the news of the new 69 year old Pope Leo.
Peter Hefele said the new Pope will have to work on internal reforms but will not be a game changer.
"I think it's a lot of continuity".
