There's a shifting international view of Israel as its war on Gaza shows little sign of relenting. After global pressure, including from the US, Israel has relented on a months-long blockade and let in limited aid - but none's been distributed so far. It's also continued firing on Gaza, where more than 53,000 people have died to date. Sky News' Alistair Bunkall says there's a strong sense - even among Isarelis - that the country has taken this too far. "There is a political dynamic to it for Netanyahu's own political reasons - and they are opposed to it and the damage that it's doing on their nation's reputation internationally."

They have been described as "dangerous" by multiple countries.  On the Sky News Daily, Niall is joined by international affairs editor Dominic Waghorn to discuss the fall-out in countries in the region.  Plus, Alistair Bunkall gives us the reaction from Israel and explains the significance of Gaza to Palestinians.   Producer: Alex Bishop Editor: Wendy Parker
