Hamas killed 22-year-old Odai Naser Saadi, one of the leaders of the anti-Hamas protest movement in Gaza.

He was kidnapped, tortured for hours, and then executed. His body was dumped at the doorstep of his family’s home, with a chilling message: “This is the price for those who criticize Hamas.”

Another miserably short-sighted move. Our adversaries, like Russia & China, are busily expanding as the BBC WS contracts. Key tools of UK soft power are being sacrificed - & thanks to cuts to BBC Monitoring, the UK won't even know what narratives it needs to counter.
