Israeli outposts in the West Bank are illegal under both Israeli and international law. The BBC’s Middle East Correspondent Lucy Williamson has gained rare access to the outpost, to speak to one of its residents about the violence. Also on the programme: One of Europe's top climate scientists on what's causing the extreme weather conditions in the continent; Hamas says the handover of its heavy weapons depends on Israel ending "all forms of aggression" and withdrawing from Gaza; and and folk dancing from the east of Colombia makes its way to London. Joining Krupa Padhy on the programme's panel are Nataliya Vasilyeva, Istanbul based journalist, and Israeli academic Ayala Panievsky.
