From Checkpoint, 6:08 pm on 12 December 2023

More than 1,000 protestors gathered on parliament's lawn today, once again urging the government to call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza.

It comes as a New Zealander made it out of Gaza overnight, crossing into Egypt through the Rafah crossing.

Our reporter Soumya Bhamidipati and cameraman Angus Dreaver were at parliament.
