Benjamin Netanyahu asks for forgiveness for not bringing back hostages alive


Listen Later

President Biden has said that a final deal for a ceasefire - and the release of hostages held in Gaza - is very close to being presented to Israel and Hamas, by mediators. He also said did not think the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, was doing enough to secure an agreement.

Benjamin Netanyahu has been appealing to the public for their continued support. He also asked for forgiveness from Israelis for not being able to bring back alive the six hostages who were found dead in Gaza on Saturday. We hear from a member of the Israeli Government and our Diplomatic Correspondent James Landale .

Also on the programme: What is dynamic pricing, and why has it caused upset amongst fans trying to secure tickets to see Oasis in the UK?; and US political statistician, Nate Silver, talks about his latest book and why we should all take more risks.
