| 0:00.0 | Good morning. You are watching the Independent Republic of Mike Graham with me, Kevin O'Sullivan, on tour, on TV, on radio, online and on your smart speaker. |
| 0:10.6 | Coming up, Rishi Sunak touched down in Israel as world leaders call for a de-escalation of tensions in the Middle East. |
| 0:17.6 | As the humanitarian crisis in Gaza grows, Egypt agrees to open its border |
| 0:23.1 | to allow aid in. And the barge is back in business with migrants expected to return to the |
| 0:29.1 | Bibi Stockholm today. |
| 0:43.6 | Now, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak landed in Israel earlier this morning. |
| 0:47.0 | He's set to meet Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu. |
| 0:53.2 | All eyes will be on what he and the Israel Defence Forces do in the coming days with reports that American President Joe Biden, |
| 0:55.9 | who visited Israel yesterday, has given his private backing to an Israeli ground invasion of the |
| 1:02.9 | Gaza Strip. Talk TV's international editor, Isabel Oakshot, joins me now. What do you think |
| 1:10.0 | that will herald? I mean, given that Joe Biden has said |

| 1:30.3 | Well, it appears from those on the ground that there is no question mark over whether this invasion is going to happen. |
| 1:36.3 | I think many people have been surprised by the delay, as it were. |
| 1:40.3 | You know, there was speculation many days ago that it was literally about to happen and it has been held off, particularly complicated by the events yesterday involving the hospital and who was responsible, not helped by Joe Biden declaring that it appears to be the work of the other team, which has gone down |
| 2:02.4 | spectacularly badly in the region and has derailed many of the other diplomatic efforts that |
| 2:07.3 | were happening out there. So I think this will happen. There is a huge question mark over |
| 2:13.2 | what is going to happen to the fate of the many innocent people within Gaza who cannot get out. |
| 2:19.8 | We've heard this morning that there is now an opening for aid to get in, |
| 2:25.1 | but that doesn't mean people can get out. |
