THE TIMES
About this episode

When Times Radio gave Hamas the airwaves we challenged them to take responsibility for the slaughter of 1400 innocent people in Israel.

We challenged them to give back their hostages.

On both counts, they refused.

Hear the conversation on today's World in 10.

Also today, will the opening of the Egypt-Gaza border for aid vehicles bring genuine hope to the people there? And can anyone stop Hezbollah getting involved in the conflict?

All that and more on today's episode.

The World in 10 is a Times of London production. A daily look at the global news agenda through the eyes of our correspondents. For more, listen to Times Radio and take out a digital subscription at thetimes.co.uk
