All you need are two features, one relating to UK events supporting Gaza,
which is added to as they arise, and one about what is ongoing in Gaza,
which is largely a duplication of the mainstream media anyway. Mostly the
additions would just be links to newswire items.

I'm not. I am complaining about too many features in sequence on the same
topic.

Incidentally, before anyone starts jumping to conclusions, my main
sympathy lies with Palestinians but I also feel very sorry for any
innocent Israelis killed. This religion-fueled conflict has been going on
for so long though  and there are plenty of other brutal wars happening in
the world.
