UN meeting debates Gaza ceasefire

The fate of the hostages held by Hamas in Gaza was raised at an emergency meeting of the United Nations General Assembly where Arab states have drafted a resolution calling for a ceasefire. We look at the role Qatar plays as a mediator in the conflict. Also in the programme: a major police hunt is continuing in the US state of Maine for a gunman who killed eighteen people; and the BBC speaks to survivors of a deadly crowd crush in South Korea that happened a year ago.
