TUESDAY 24th FEB 22:30 GBT - BBC TWO PRESENTED BY JEREMY PAXMAN Mark Urban writes... "The British War Cemetery in Gaza is an oasis of greenery and calm, or at least it used to be. In January the place was hit with tank, artillery and mortar fire. As we've discovered, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission is now pressing the Israeli government for £95,000 compensation. I've been to the cemetery to find out what happened, but also on a personal quest. It's not long since I discovered my own great uncle, Walter Holmes, a soldier of the Isle of Wight Rifles was killed in Gaza in 1917. His grave is one of near 3,700 in that graveyard, and I wanted to know whether it had been damaged."

He told MPs he would use a clause in the Freedom of Information Act to block their release. We will have more on that with Michael Crick. And our Economics Editor, Paul Mason says market analysts have been telling him the "technical support points" for the world's stock markets are being breached, meaning trillions of dollars more of the world's financial wealth is set to be wiped out. He will be assessing the day's damage to the financial markets. And we'll debate whether social networking sites are causing a whole generation of youngsters to become self-centred and have low attention spans. Join Jeremy at 10.30pm. Missed Newsnight?
