the head of the territory's largest hospital says that at least 20 people died there, including several sheltering in a courtyard. the world health organization says 20 hospitals in gaza are now entirely out of action, as israeli tanks are spotted outside one children's facility. health officials now say more than 11,000 people have been killed in gaza since israel launched its offensive against hamas in response to the group's deadly assault last month. the uk's prime minister has backed the home secretary suella braverman, in the face of calls to sack her. downing street said rishi sunak still had "full confidence" in her. she's come into criticism after writing an article accusing the police of bias. welcome to bbc news. let's spend the next half hour answering some of your questions as we approach five weeks of the war in the middle east. where are we with israel's military campaign, the humanitarian situation, hostages, the tactics being used, the death toll, the diplomacy, and what any sort of end game looks like. injerusalem is our correspondent paul adams, and with me is james landale. so, straight to the first question. paul, we have a question from roger, who says air hamas is in gaza and the hostages are there, how was bombing gaza going to give those hostages alive? it is bombing gaza going to give those hostages alive?— hostages alive? it is a good question — hostages alive? it is a good question and _ hostages alive? it is a good question and one _ hostages alive? it is a good question and one that - hostages alive? it is a good| question and one that many hostages alive? it is a good - question and one that many israelis have been asking since the start of this. is israel's military campaign in gaza going to actually put their relatives lives in greater danger? the israelis don't yet control more than about 20% of gaza city. they are working quite slowly and methodically, and so far this military effort has only resulted in the rescue of one hostage. the israeli government's argument has been it is only by the relentless application of military pressure that hostages will be released. it is worth remembering we are seeing behind—the—scenes tantalising glimpses of the kind of diplomatic efforts going on to secure the release of hostages. the israeli government has yet to accept the idea that it is worth pausing its military activities to give those diplomatic efforts room to bear fruit. its view is it cannot do anything that gives hamas an opportunity to regroup. hamas has said, and we can take this with a pinch of salt, that is many as 60 of the hostages have been killed as a result of israel air strikes. the government here recognises hostages will probably die in the course of its military operations because those hostages are being held in the same places where many of the hamas fighters are hiding.— fighters are hiding. james, on that issue of behind-the-scenes, -

planning on doing here? 0h, nick, there are three questions there. is israel flattening the northern part of the gaza strip? the answer is no, despite what you think you have seen. the destruction is widespread. in certain places it is absolute. there are still large part of gaza city that remain relatively unscathed. i use the word relatively. israel's effort to take gaza city has only really begun in the last week, so we don't the level of destruction that will be left by the time the israelis feel they have finally taken gaza. 0f the time the israelis feel they have finally taken gaza. of course, more than i finally taken gaza. of course, more thani million people have left and many of those have no idea if their homes will be standing when this fighting is over. whether there will be anything for them to return to. well gaza be a wasteland? then the other question is, what happens if the israelis turn south? having crowned the bulk of the population of the gaza strip into the southern regions, the two thirds of the strip, does israel want to continue its military operation into that area? where do those people go while the battle takes place? finally the question about the long—term plan. no one knows the long—term plan. until a month ago, there was no plan for any of this. just until a month ago, there was no plan for any of this-— for any of this. just a brief follow-up. _ for any of this. just a brief follow-up, because -

verification because communication is so difficult, reporting as well, and we are in a war, so paul, a couple of questions. anthony says how many other 10,000 people killed so far are hamas fighters? rob says, my question regarding the 1a00 killed on october seven, i have seen numbers about how that is broken down, or i haven't seen numbers in terms of soldiers, police, ages. broadly, the questions are asking how we going about verifying the basic facts yet. we how we going about verifying the basic facts yet.— basic facts yet. we have great difficulty- _ basic facts yet. we have great difficulty. let's _ basic facts yet. we have great difficulty. let's take _ basic facts yet. we have great difficulty. let's take the - basic facts yet. we have great| difficulty. let's take the israeli side first, each day that passes, you get the israelis giving a slightly amended total for how many people were killed, how many people are missing, how many people taken hostage. it is hardly surprising given the scale of what happens, that there should be even now lingering uncertainty about exactly who died, where they died, whether they were taken, on a hostage less. these things are not clear. i do think anyone should be surprise, let alone suspicious about anything there. on the palestinian side, there. on the palestinian side, there is a very live debate about these numbers. the numbers come to us from the palestinian health ministry, which is controlled by hamas in gaza. that might make people think, of course they will inflate the numbers. in certain incidents, for example the explosion at the hospital several weeks ago, but numbers of casualties were grossly inflated at the time. what most people believe about those health ministry numbers is generally speaking, they have proven to be accurate. in previous rounds of conflict in gaza, those numbers have been checked out, international aid agencies, people who have an interest in knowing these things have looked at those, looked at the methodology and have generally concluded that what the health ministry put out tends to be accurate. 0f ministry put out tends to be accurate. of course, the evidence of our own eyes tells us the death toll, particularly the death toll among women and children, isjust overwhelming. we have seen so much that it overwhelming. we have seen so much thatitis overwhelming. we have seen so much that it is hard to dispute the fact many, many, many thousands of people have been killed. pauli many, many, many thousands of people have been killed.— have been killed. paul and james, before we discussed _ have been killed. paul and james, before we discussed the _ have been killed. paul and james, before we discussed the potential| before we discussed the potential end game here, how that is used in the region and elsewhere, paul, brief if you could, in terms of fundamental thinking and mood. israel's prime minister said everything change from the 7th of october. where is israel five weeks 0ctober. where is israel five weeks in? and the thinking from the palestinian side, your assessment as well. ., , ., , well. ok, on the israeli side, i would say _ well. ok, on the israeli side, i would say basically _ well. ok, on the israeli side, i would say basically most - well. ok, on the israeli side, i. would say basically most israelis are foursquare behind the military. they agree hamas needs to be dealt with once and for all. they saw too much on the 7th of october. that is not the same as saying they support their government. many people, particularly on the left and centre and some on the right, think benjamin netanyahu was asleep at the wheel and didn't see the threats, they even contributed to them in some ways. the government's reputation is at rock bottom, and the prime minister's reputation as well. forthe the prime minister's reputation as well. for the palestinians, they are deepin well. for the palestinians, they are deep in shock. the people in gaza are living with the daily reality of being bombarded day in, day out. on the west bank, the people there are stunned. they are watching it and wondering why they haven't seen tens of thousands of people on the streets. i think it is because people are terrified. they are seeing what is happening in gaza and think it could happen to them if they put a foot wrong.- think it could happen to them if they put a foot wrong. james, before they put a foot wrong. james, before the end game. _ they put a foot wrong. james, before the end game, let's _ they put a foot wrong. james, before the end game, let's turn _ they put a foot wrong. james, before the end game, let's turn to _ they put a foot wrong. james, before the end game, let's turn to the -
