Life under the bombs in Khan Younis

Israeli ground forces are pressing on towards Khan Younis - one of the two major cities in the south of the Gaza Strip,

Using social media and leaflet drops, the IDF has given fresh evacuation orders in Gaza - amid warnings from aid groups that people are running out of places to flee

Mohammed Ghalayini is currently living in the city but he normally is a resident of Manchester in northern England. He was visiting his relatives in Gaza eight weeks ago when Hamas massacred more than a thousand Israelis. Mohammed decided to stay on in Gaza, to remain with his family.

He told Newshour's Tim Franks what he'd seen and heard today in Khan Younis.
