Israel-Gaza war: 'We left everything behind when we fled'

A man who fled Gaza with his family and only a small suitcase between six of them has said they do not know what the future holds and fear for the lives of those left behind.

Emad Abuaassi and his wife Stephanie moved to Gaza from Blackpool a year ago, to be closer to his family, but after the conflict began, they left their flat in the middle of the night.

He said they were "lucky to escape".
