The bbc s chief international correspondent, whos in southern israel. Also our international editor, jeremy bowen, who is injerusalem. Now, we dont know how events in gaza and israel will unfold in the coming hours, much less days. But as soon as hamas attacked on october 7th, there was no doubt that israel would respond. So lets start with this question. Hello, this is david from sydney, australia. Ive just listened to your gaza question podcast,| but for me the most interesting question wasnt asked at all. I given that hamas would have known their barbaric attack i would result in a massive reaction, why did they do it .

Beach volleyball today. the games are part of a plan for this place. smithfield was set for huge regeneration, but a gap was found to put sport here. next year, the building goes on, to make a new home for the markets, with housing and offices. these major events let s not kid anyone they are expensive, so being innovative in the way you deliver the event and, as we ve done here with the smithfield site, using a site that at the moment isjust empty, with nothing on it, and utilising that opportunity to ensure the games are located in the heart of the centre of birmingham has been very, very important. it s somewhere i used to come as a child with my grandparents and stuff, shopping, and to have the games in the middle of the city is going to have a lot of people just walking past it, maybe not even having tickets, but it should be a great experience for everyone. the shape of this city has changed through the years. archive: the bullring s multistorey car park can store away more ....
