Morning everyone. There is terrible news today from Gaza where hundreds of people are feared dead after a strike on a hospital, according to the territory’s health ministry. We’re also reporting on the ongoing agony of relatives of people killed in the initial Hamas attack on Israel and why the west gave up on trying to fix the Middle East’s central problem. At home we’re looking at the glut of gambling ads on free-to-air media, the people who built Sydney Opera House, and what’s holding up the rollout of electric vehicles in Australia. And in the sporting world, the Netherlands have stunned South Africa at the Cricket World Cup.
