has hit more than 400 targets. the gaza health ministry says nearly 200 people have been killed huge explosions and sent people running for cover. gaza's health ministry says more than 190 people have been killed since the end of the week—long truth on friday. israel says it is pulled at the negotiating team out of qatar. the palestinian red crescent says it's received the first aid trucks to enter gaza since the truce ended. and at cop28, at least 116 nations commit themselves to tripling renewable energy capacity. hello, i'm vishala sri—pathma.

israel has pulled its negotiators out of talks in qatar, because it says discussions there aimed at agreeing a new truce with hamas — designated a terrorist organisation by the uk government — had reached a "dead end". israel's military has intensified its bombardment of gaza since a temporary ceasefire expired yesterday, with air strikes in north—western gaza, and khan younis in the south — where hundreds of thousands of people fled earlier in the war to escape fighting. according to the hamas—run health ministry, 193 people have been killed and 650 injured since the resumption of fighting. a convoy of humanitarian aid has crossed into gaza for the first time since thursday. humanitarian groups are warning of catastrophic consequences for civilians. the international federation of the red cross says aid workers won't be able to reach people in need if the air strikes continue.

live now to our diplomatic correspondent paul adams in jerusalem. in terms of israel's strategy, what is quite clear now is that they are essentially following some lines of advice from antony blinken in terms of designating areas that are safe for palestinians to go to. something has clearly changed, _ for palestinians to go to. something has clearly changed, and _ for palestinians to go to. something has clearly changed, and it - for palestinians to go to. something has clearly changed, and it may - for palestinians to go to. something has clearly changed, and it may or l has clearly changed, and it may or may not be a result of american pressure because antony blanket made it clear when he was here a couple of days ago that the campaign had to be different —— antony blinken. to make sure civilians could find shelter away from being in the line of fire. what we see is perhaps less of fire. what we see is perhaps less of an less of an emphasis on safe

areas. the maps that are being dropped by leaflets now show in a very detailed way the areas which the israelis same they're going to target any given time. if you're in one of these grid squares, get out of that area. it doesn't recommend any particular safe area. the implication is you will be safe if you're not in that designated area. the israelis also reserve the right to continue to strike what they call high—value targets outside of those areas that are delineated on the map. this is where they think hamas leaders are —— or control centres might be. that is why, despite a concerted effort throughout this war

for the last two months, palestinians continue to stay there is nowhere safe. in palestinians continue to stay there is nowhere safe.— is nowhere safe. in terms of negotiations, _ is nowhere safe. in terms of negotiations, in _ is nowhere safe. in terms of negotiations, in terms - is nowhere safe. in terms of negotiations, in terms of. is nowhere safe. in terms of- negotiations, in terms of perhaps reintroducing a cease—fire or a truce, we've got macron saying he's heading over to qatar. he hasn't really been that involved in terms of those negotiations so far. he hasn't of those negotiations so far. he: hasn't been at all involved. this is been very much a process involving the israelis. 0f been very much a process involving the israelis. of course hamas and egyptians. it is not clear how emmanuel macron can insert himself into a process that was extremely delicate and very difficult and complex in an effort to revive it. at the moment, i would say the chances of a new cease—fire seems extremely remote. hamas officials

said today that none of those, no more hostages would be released until the military campaign is over. that's weeks if not months away, so if there is to be any return to a negotiation, it's going to require the work of the americans and the egyptians and the israelis with the mediation of qatar. i don't think emmanuel macron by himself will be able to restart that process. idelete able to restart that process. we're to to hear from _ able to restart that process. we're to to hear from the _ able to restart that process. we're to to hear from the israeli - able to restart that process. we're to to hear from the israeli prime i to to hearfrom the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu shortly. what are we expecting him to say? well, i suppose this would be his first public address since the resumption of the military operations yesterday morning. i assume that he will update the israeli public on the rationale behind that. he may address the concerns of the family members who had gotten use to the site of hostages being released in small groups day by day and were hoping

and praying that their relatives would be among those to be released next. 0bviously, would be among those to be released next. obviously, there was fugitive �*s appointment among the family and friends of the remaining hostages —— huge disappointment. i think mr netanyahu ought to feel compelled to address those concerns. i'm sure he will state that one of israel's main objectives remains the destruction of hamas as a force.— objectives remains the destruction of hamas as a force. paul, thank you very much- — fighting is now into its second day after the truce ended. let's get the latest now from our correspondent lucy williamson. khan yunis, gaza's southern capital, once labelled safe. america says this new phase

of israel's war in gaza must look different to before two days in. different to before. two days in, it looks and sounds the same. israel today bombed 50 targets here more than any previous day of the conflict. it's been telling people to move to shelters further south. this city is where top hamas leaders are said to be hiding. it's also where nada abu—warda and his three children are staying, having fled here from the fighting in the north. translation: the israelis told us that khan yunis - was a safe zone, which led us to flee here. now, even khan yunis has become a war zone. where are we supposed to go? our children are stranded on the streets. israel says military pressure on hamas helps free hostages. 110 women and children were released before the truce broke down. they all got sister in law,

jardine made it out. his sister carmel is still being held by hamas. this man's sister—in—law made it out. his sister carmel is still being held by hamas. we hoped that we would be like one, two or more days of releases. she's the last one from barry and one of the last from all the abducted people. she's doing ok? i know she's held alive in gaza. today was my worst day. 20 women are still listed as hostages in gaza. one of them is yarden golan, sister romi, kidnapped from the nova music festival. the negotiation and the releases and everything gave me hope . that i will win the - lottery the next time. ijust know that my sister is - waiting and she saw the other ones get released and she knew that she's she could be the next one. _

tonight, jarden and or willjoin other hostage families for a rally in support of those still held in gaza. some fear that military goals might now take priority. israel has said bombing and bargaining can take place together — something forfamilies here to cling to. lucy williamson, bbc news, tel aviv. ican take i can take you to that rally that lucy just i can take you to that rally that lucyjust mentioned. here are life pictures of tel aviv, supporters and relatives of hostages holding this rally. several women are still in captivity. lucy mentioned the figure of that 20 women roughly that are still in gaza. also, roughly around 110.

the idf update is. here is spokesperson peter lerner. from our perspective, we understand that this is going to be a long war, a war that is not bound by time as we see it. and indeed, the reality is one, where hamas have taken the last 16 years of their governance in order to build an extensive subterranean capability, an extensive rocket array, an extensive drone explosive drone capability. and this is the enemy that we are facing. 16 years of their governance in order to build an extensive subterranean capability, an extensive rocket array, an extensive drone explosive drone capability. and this is the enemy that we are facing. the type of combat that we are facing on the ground includes urban warfare, close combat, sometimes door—to—door and especially explosive devices, anti—tank guided missiles, includes urban warfare, close combat, sometimes door—to—door,

and especially explosive devices, anti—tank guided missiles, rpgs and sniperfire and machine gun fire. these are the main characteristics of what we're finding on the ground. but i would say that our forces are very effective and in almost every engagement, i would definitely identify tens of terrorists that are being killed in the engagements with the idf on the ground. we will continue our efforts in order to achieve our goals and uphold and restore safety and security to the people of israel. and with that, i would like to open it to questions. thank you very much, lieutenant colonel peter lerner. if there are any questions from the floor, please raise your hand. if you have any questions on zoom, please write them in the chat box. our first question coming in from paul adams from the bbc. returning to the safe zone subject that was discussed with ambassador regev, has israel abandoned the idea of al—mawasi as a single designated safe zone? the new maps are very detailed, but they do not actually specify any safe zones. what are the specific designated areas? thanks, paul. it remains a core area,

a safer zone, an area which can be utilised. unfortunately, we've not seen a huge amount of people going there, and so we are adjusting our operational assessment of the situation on the ground. what you have noticed in the maps and as you rightly pointed out, it is very detailed, and specific areas that people need to move out specifically to go to safer areas, there won't be operations at that time. hamas has turned the civilian arena into a a fortified position, or fortified positions, and it creates a huge challenge for the military. but we are determined to distinguish between the civilians and the non—combatants and the terrorists. and that is why we are asking people to evacuate from specific locations and go to get to out of that area so that they can have, i would say, what what would be there to get them out of harm's way?

french president emmanuel macron says israel's right to defend that was peter lerner. french president emmanuel macron says israel's right to defend itself does not extend to a right to attack civilian populations. here he is speaking at the united nations climate summit. translation: we have more than regretted it, of course, _ and i repeat my concerns about the resumption of attacks. we recognise israel's right to defend itself, but within the framework of international law and respect for humanitarian law, and under no circumstances can this right to defend oneself be a right to attack civilian populations. so i hope that we can put the weapons down so that we can resume the humanitarian work, the political discussions and the work on freeing the hostages. today, this work has been suspended, as you quite rightly said. i had the discussion with president herzog yesterday. we're going to need several days of work. the objective is both to give visibility on the conditions for the release of hostages

again and also on other security guarantees that israel might request. so this is an ongoing negotiation. obviously, we remain very concerned and france's position remains unchanged on this point. that was french president emmanuel macron. he was at the cop28 conference in dubai. also there is vice president. here she is speaking with leaders in the region about the israel—gaza war. she outlined the united states' suggested plan for what should happen when the fighting eventually ends. so, we all want this conflict to end as soon as possible and to ensure israel's security and ensure security for the palestinian people. we must accelerate efforts to build an enduring peace, and that begins with planning for what happens the day after the fighting ends.

shortly after october 7th, president biden and i began discussions with our national security team about post—conflict gaza. we have begun to engage partners in the region and around the world in these conversations, and this has been a key priority over the last eight weeks. five principles guide our approach for post—conflict gaza. for post—conflict gaza = five principles guide our approach for post—conflict gaza — no forcible displacement, no reoccupation, no siege or blockade, no reduction in territory, and no use of gaza as a platform for terrorism. we want to see a unified gaza and west bank under the palestinian authority, and palestinian voices and aspirations must be at the centre of this work. at a certain point, the intense fighting and the phase of fighting will end, and we will begin implementing our plans

for the day after. to develop these plans, then we will continue to work with both israelis and palestinians. but there must also be regional consensus and support. to that end, i've had a number of in—depth conversations with arab leaders here in dubai. specifically, i proposed three areas of focus. 0ne, reconstruction — the international community must dedicate significant resources to support short and long—term recovery. resources to support short and long—term recovery in gaza — for example, rebuilding hospitals and housing, restoring electricity and clean water, and ensuring that bakeries can reopen and be restocked. second, security. the palestinian authority security forces must be strengthened to eventually assume security

responsibilities in gaza. until then, there must be security arrangements that are acceptable to israel, the people of gaza, the palestinian authority, and the international partners. and to reiterate, and this is very important, terrorists will not be permitted to continue to threaten israel. third, governance. the palestinian authority must be revitalised, driven by the will of the palestinian people, which will allow them to benefit from the rule of law and a transparent, responsive government. eventually, this revitalised pa must have the capacity to govern gaza as well as the west bank. we believe progress on these three areas reconstruction, security reconstruction, security and governance — will improve the lives and livelihoods of the palestinian people.

us vice president,. matt duss said what it would take to resume negotiations. a much more involved and energetic effort, first of all, _ from the united states and to put real pressure on israel, _ which it has not thus. far been willing to do. secretary blinken has made numerous trips to israel and to the region. - he was there just this week, - right before the ceasefire ended. but a big missing piece of thisl process has been real pressure and the united states using its considerable leverage on israel. i now, that's not to to absolve, of. course, hamas from responsibility. now, that's not to absolve, of - course, hamas from responsibility. my understanding is that it was - hamas's decision to renege on some of its commitments regarding - which hostages were to be released. that was the proximate cause of the end of this ceasefire. . but still, the united states has much more leverage to deploy| if it should choose to do so.

and as the civilian casualties rise in number, and we're in number, and we're already seeing that, since the resumption of hostilities, how do you think, of hostilities, how do you think, matt, the us position will continue to change? well, we've already seen much stronger warningsl about israeli operations, regarding the protection| of civilians, around the provision of humanitarian aid. _ and escalating those i warnings is important, but it is simply not enough. we're going to see, as i said, - some real pressure brought to bear. we know the way that israelis are choosing targets. - there have been recent reports this week from israeli news sources - about the use of al to select i targets, coming up with a huge target list, levelling entire apartment blocks - because maybe one room or part of a floor was used by hamas — l therebyjustifying the massive destruction we are seeing. - there is just no way to square this operation with any commitment.

to civilian protection or international law. and ultimately, we are going to need to see this administration _ and this president speak much more i clearly about it and act upon it. i and throughout this so far, president biden has said that he supports israel's right to defend itself, and that's unlikely to change as a position more broadly, though. i understand. i mean, listen, i support israel's right to protect its people, - as everyone should. that does not mean that israel gets to choose entirely the manner- in which it does so. it is bound by international law. the president has- repeatedly stated this. and by the way, hamas is as well. we should never forget to mention that hamas again, its atrocious - we should never forget- to mention that hamas, again, its atrocious attacks on october the 7th,| it's continuing to hold hostages and fire - it's continuing to hold - hostages and fire hostages and fire rockets inside israel.

an egregious violation i of those same standards. but again, going back to israel's defence, . that right does not - imply the right to level entire cities, which is - what we are seeing in gaza. back to tel aviv now. family members and also supporters... crosstalk how to and what of the speakers. without you all, i wouldn't have been here. you must continue bringing my sasha home. all of you, all of them now. translation: shesus speaking in russian.

terms of age, we're hearing that several tropes, up to about 50 trucks have gone into gaza. can you briefly tell us if that is the case? in a nutshell, it is the current conditions do not allow for many aid. we have to expect that to spell disaster. a doctor told me during a cease—fire he thought how possibly could gaza be any more destroyed thanit could gaza be any more destroyed than it is. he told me to please be aware the next mass death of children will come from disease. sorry to interrupt, we have to go to break. thank you very much for joining us. james in khan younis. stay with us here on bbc news. hello there.

although much of the country today has been very cold but dry with a bit of sunshine, some mist and fog, we've seen some snow showers across western wales, northwest england, some frequent and heavy snow showers for cumbria. the met office issued an amber warning for cumbria for these snow showers. but it's this line of snow showers which has been affecting irish sea coasts of england and wales, which will pep up through the evening and overnight as it spreads its way eastwards. so, we see a couple of centimetres of snow north of the m4 corridor, even down to lower levels, and that snow will push across northern, eastern england towards the end of the night. further accumulations, more than a couple of centimetres, perhaps, over the higher ground. a cold night to come. ice will be a significant risk where snow and sleet will be falling. very cold across northern scotland — —10, —11 degrees, but perhaps frost—free across southern england. now, to start sunday, we'll have that wintry mix across eastern areas first thing and then it'll clear away, and then england and wales staying rather cloudy with further outbreaks

of rain at times. but the far north of england, northern ireland, scotland will have a bright day with some sunshine, but it will stay cold, especially across scotland, perhaps a little less cold across the south, perhaps up to double figures there for plymouth and for the channel islands. that's all because of this area of low pressure, which will move in during sunday night into monday. so, it looks like the start of the new week will be cloudy, wet, windy across large parts of england and wales. and we'll see showers moving in off the north sea affecting eastern scotland. these will have a wintry flavour to them, so the best of the sunshine will tend to be across the north and the west of the uk. a cold day to come despite the fact temperatures a little bit higher in the south. because of the wind, certainly, it's going to feel quite raw. tuesday, that area of low pressure pulls out into the north sea, so it's eastern parts of scotland, east england, which will see the strongest of the winds, further wintry showers further north north and west, thanks to a ridge of high pressure. it looks like it will be cold, but at least dry and bright blue skies and plenty of sunshine. another cold day to come wherever you are.

the cold weather persists into wednesday, but after wednesday, you'll notice the blue colours move northwards and we start to see the orange colours taking over. it will be turning a lot milder towards the end of the week, but with that milder air comes more unsettled conditions. we'll see low pressure systems bringing spells of wet and windy weather to all areas. see you later.

this is bbc news, the headlines... khan yunis residents in southern gaza report the city facing its most intense israeli bombardment amid israel withdrawing its negotiating team from qatar. the hamas—run health ministry says nearly 200 people have been killed since friday morning. french president emmanuel macron says he's heading to qatar to kick—start efforts for a new israel—gaza truce. translation: we recognise israel's right to defend itself, _ but within the framework of international law, under no circumstances can this right be a right to attack civilian populations. the palestinian red crescent says about 50 humanitarian aid trucks have been allowed through the rafah crossing into gaza — the first since thursday. at cop 28, at least 116 nations commit to tripling renewable energy capacity.
