I don't know how it is possible to do something, one human being to the other, because animals don't do it.

The world remembers 80 years on from the liberation of Auschwitz. We start in Gaza, where the coastal road has been packed with people. As many as 100,000 Palestinians displaced during the conflict are returning to their homes as the ceasefire agreement holds. Young parents with babies in their arms, the elderly being helped along.

103.991 - 123.143 Nick Miles

Many people are weighed down with huge bags containing all they've managed to salvage after more than a year of escaping from place to place. Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to follow them in the coming days. Among those making the journey is the family of our Gaza correspondent, Rushdi Aboualouf. He spoke to us from Cairo.

123.763 - 142.282 Rushdi Aboualouf

Very emotional day for me and my family. Very relieved that my father and my rest of the family will be starting their journey back to Gaza City. Most of their homes were destroyed, but it's a big day for all Palestinians we are talking about. More than a million people are in the move.
