Aid agencies are preparing to start a mass polio vaccination programme in Gaza, after Israel and Hamas agreed to a series of pauses in the fighting.
The campaign will aim to vaccinate around 640,000 children across the Gaza strip and will begin on Sunday, the World Health Organisation says.
Also in the programme: Kamala Harris responds to accusations she's flip-flopped on policy in her first interview as the Democratic presidential nominee; the actor Gary Oldman on reprising his role as a shambolic spy with terrible personal hygiene; and a tribute to the truck driver who became king of the Māori people.
