bombards southern gaza with air strikes. aid agencies say hospitals are already overwhelmed. there are already overwhelmed. are children in the car park there are children in the car park with bad injuries, brakes and shrapnel. i saw a young man with his mother, holding him, as he bled to death. french police confirm the suspect in a fatal attack was on the security services watch list. and more than 110 nations pledge to triple the world's capacity to produce renewable energy by the end of the decade. hello, i'm helena humphrey. good to have you with us. first, we want to bring you some breaking news — police in the philippines say three people were killed and nine wounded in an explosion in a university

gymnasium in the southern city of marawi. local media reports say it happened during a catholic mass. we'll bring you more updates on this story as it comes in. it comes after a powerful magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck the same island earlier in the day, followed by four major aftershocks that sent residents fleeing from coastal areas amid fears of a tsunami. tsunami warnings issued earlier, including as far as japan, have now been cancelled. meanwhile, in paris, one person has been killed and two others injured in a knife and hammer attack. french president emmanuel macron sent his condolences to the family of a victim, a german tourist. the suspect, who was arrested at the scene, is a 26—year—old french national. the french interior minister says the man was known to authorities in france for trying to stage another attack in 2016. french anti—terror prosecutors say they will be taking over the investigation.

fierce fighting has resumed in gaza after the collapse of a temporary ceasefire between israel and hamas. israel has ramped up air strikes on gaza, telling residents to evacuate to other areas, but aid groups say nowhere is safe. prime minister benjamin netanyahu warned the war is far from over. translation: we will continue the war until we achieve - all its goals, which is impossible without the ground operation. it was necessary to bring the results until now and it is necessary to bring the results moving forward. well, israel's been carrying out intense air strikes on khan younis in southern gaza. israel says hamas leaders are in the city, but it's also where hundreds of thousands of palestinians have been sheltering after being told to flee from the north. residents are describing it as some of the heaviest bombing of the war yet.

people in the eastern areas of the city have been told to evacuate further south. khan younis was one of the places they were told to flee to in the earlier stages of the war. hospitals in gaza are operating with very limited resources after weeks of fighting. unicef spokesmanjames elder is in khan younis and has been visiting hospitals there and in northern gaza. this is his assessment. they are utterly overwhelmed, the medical system here, despite heroic— i know it is an overused word but the most brilliant, self—serving people —— fantastic people putting themselves in harm's way and working without things the doctor should have like anaesthetic and lights to do surgery with, it's in a critical condition and i've beenin critical condition and i've been in the north now, shifa has gone and i've been to a referral hospital and it should be a referral hospital but now is a primary hospital for people with battleground injuries, with the wounds of war. it's so not set up for

that. there is blood all over the floor. there is multiple people, children in the car park with bad, bad injuries, rakes and shrapnel. i saw a young man with his mother, holding him as he bled to death. the doctors don't have the capacity. the biggest hospital now is where i've been to almost every day, a 200% capacity, scattered with children again with amputations and no way if your child is very sick with diarrhoea which we see a lot of, will not be able to get attention. it's a war zone and these hospitals cannot function. the assessment of james elder, _ cannot function. the assessment of james elder, the _ cannot function. the assessment of james elder, the unicef - ofjames elder, the unicef spokesman. the us secretary of defense lloyd austin has weighed in, warning israel that it should be shielding civilians. you see in this kind of a fight, the centre of gravity is the civilian population and if you drive them into the arms of the enemy, you replace a tactical victory with a strategic defeat. so, i have repeatedly made clear to israel's leaders that

protecting palestinian civilians in gaza is both a moral responsibility and a strategic imperative. but it's unclear if israel will heed that warning. our middle east correspondent lucy williamson has this report. 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, it looks and sounds the same. residents say the bombing of khan younis is the heaviest since the conflict began. this city is where senior hamas leaders are said to be hiding. israel has told people to move to shelters further south. nader abu warda and his three children fled here from the fighting in the north.

translation: the israelis told us that khan yunis was a safe l 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. really, today was my worst day. yarden gonen�*s sister romi is still there. the negotiation and the releases and everything gave me hope that i will win the lottery the next time. i just know that my sister is waiting and she saw the other ones get released and she knew that she could be the next one. tonight, families and their supporters held a rally in central tel aviv, the strain of the last two days colouring the mood.

the star speaker, yelena, released by hamas but forced to leave her son behind. translation: i'm happy and excited to stand - here in front of you. i came to say thank you because without you, i wouldn't be here. and now, we have to go back and get my sasha. the stories of hostages and their families are starting to diverge. after a week in which more than 100 women and children were released, there is now an effort to keep up pressure on the government not to leave anyone behind. negotiations to release more hostages seem to have stalled. some here worry that military goals are now the priority. israel has said bombing and bargaining can take place together — something for families to cling to. lucy williamson, bbc news, tel aviv. these are the live pictures of gaza right now, where it's just after 2 o'clock in the morning.

—— just after 4 o'clock in the morning. you can see the scene. there have been in the past few hours what appears to be some kind of military activity going on with the israeli air strikes on gaza's south continuing as well and, of course, it made the situation difficult for civilians to protect themselves. i discussed that with our diplomatic correspondent paul adams, who's in jerusalem. i want to start with the leaflets that we know israel has been air dropping over the gaza strip as it renewed its bombardment. do people receiving them understand where to go, where the safe areas are? well, leaflets in general have caused confusion and uncertainty in the past. what we are seeing at the moment is a slightly new iteration of this policy with this detailed map of the gaza strip broken down into numbered grid squares.

the idea being now not that israel will direct people towards safe areas but they will direct people away from unsafe areas. the maps that are being dropped have areas that are shaded which show where the israeli military is planning to conduct its military operations and it's urging people to leave those areas. so, that is a different approach and one has to assume that from day to day, those unsafe areas will change as israel's military priorities shift and change. so, we won't know perhaps for a few days whether this new strategy is working any better than the old one, which was a rather blunter form of warning for people in whole areas just to move south or to get out of the way. this is more precise but we don't yet know whether it's more effective. and another thing that's worth bearing in mind is even outside that defined area, israel still reserves the right

to conduct what it calls attacks on high—value targets, and those can be — as palestinians have found to their cost, — anywhere and any time. i also want to speak about the negotiations as well, which, of course, had been under way in qatar, benjamin netanyahu now saying they are pulling their team from qatar. what does this mean for the potential of a further temporary truce and also, of course, that question when it comes to those hostages who still remain inside gaza? well, at the moment, it means there are no negotiations and, therefore, no prospect of any immediate resumption of that truce. the israel's pulled their delegation out. benjamin netanyahu, speaking on television tonight, saying that only military forces had secured the release of the 100 or so hostages who were released over the past week and that that is what israel is about to do again in the gaza strip. hamas said that there

would be no further releases hostages until there was a complete ceasefire, so at the moment, you see the two sides are very, very far apart on this. whether the various negotiators who have been involved again, —— in trying to get this ceasefire up can get it running off again, i don't think so, not in the short—term. it was at the moment as if israel is determined to pursue military pressure for the time being. with regards to continuing that military pressure, that was something that benjamin netanyahu touched on in the press conference that he was giving, essentially saying that aim to eradicate hamas continues. i just wonder weeks now into this conflict, do we have a clearer idea as to what the idf has been able to achieve in pursuing that aid? —— able to achieve in pursuing that aim? well, they said that even before the ceasefire a week or so ago, they were making very significant progress in the northern

part of the gaza strip. they had defeated a number of the hamas fighting battalions. they still have work that they want to do there, so we are seeing some pretty intense street fighting in parts of the gaza city — that is likely to continue for some time, until they feel they have the whole of the northern area under their control. then, attention — in terms of ground forces — attention will probably turn to the south. we're already probably some ground operations in the south but in terms of a major push into the south, that may be still some time away. and then, israel will essentially be trying to achieve the same thing, which is to go after the hamas infrastructure — the tunnels, the command and control centres — searching for the leaders and continuing the search also for hostages. all of that presents the prospect of a military conflict that has got weeks, probably months, still to run with some reporting suggesting

that basically, we're going to be seeing military action of one form or another throughout the coming year. paul adams, thanks, as ever, for your reporting. venezeulans are voting in a referendum over whether the coutnry should create its own state in the disputed region with neighbouring guyana — it's a move denouced by guyana as a step towards annexation, raising concerns in the region of a possible military conflict. voters will be expected to say whether they agree with creating a new state in the jungle region and providing its population with venezeuelan citizenship. the region itself has long been the subject of a terriorital claim by venezuela but the leftist government under nicolas maduro has taken heightened interest in it after oil deposits were discovered offshore in 2015, which has boosted guyana's economy. although the vote isn't binding, the referendum is being seen as possible litmus test for maduro ahead of next year's presidential election.

live now to our latin america correspondent, will grant. great to see you once again. what is the likelihood of the referendum passing? and what impact will it actually have, if any? i think it's pretty short to pass elayna because there isn't any real meaningful no campaign going on. i think the litmus test you mentioned is whether the maduro administration can mobilise their support in large numbers still and i think if we see a big abstention rate, that will show the people simply cannot be bothered to engage with this, that they may be seeing it as simply a nationalistic move by mr maduro and his government had of next year's collections. the impact, of course, if it is past and particularly if it is passed with a large backing, is the echo of the sabre rattling to the neighbour guyana. people there are feeling very uneasy and dismayed about what is going on. you again mentioned

the word annexation and i think thatis the word annexation and i think that is the greatest fear, that this could descend into some kind of falklands malvinas style conflict and this dispute that has been in place for almost 200 years turns military, that there will be some kind of attempt to reclaim the territory by venezuela. couldn't spread further? you mentioned the prospect of sabre rattling. if we look at what has happened in recent weeks, we also have brazil announcing it was increasing its military presence on the northern border with venezuela and guyana. could they be the widening of conflict in the region?- conflict in the region? nerves are jangling — conflict in the region? nerves are jangling and _ conflict in the region? nerves are jangling and i _ conflict in the region? nerves are jangling and i think - conflict in the region? nerves are jangling and i think that i are jangling and i think that people are looking at the rhetoric used by mr majuro about reconquista, he said, to take it back. when i lived in

venezuela, the map of venezuela always had the ski boat region greyed out. —— esequiba. 60% growth in the gdp in guyana last year could lead to, let's say, friction, potentially conflict. the defence minister in venezuela has said that this isn't a military conflict for now. that the dispute will be, you know, diplomatically resolved, but they don't recognise what is being said by the international court of justice. they have urged venezuela not to do anything that could alter the status quo on the ground.— that could alter the status quo on the ground. you brought up the oil deposits. _ on the ground. you brought up the oil deposits. to _ on the ground. you brought up the oil deposits. to what - the oil deposits. to what extent do you think that oil here is playing a role? i think it is very _ here is playing a role? i think it is very important. -

here is playing a role? i think. it is very important. venezuela is hugely oil rich already. at this particular region is home to about 300,000 inhabitants. it is three times the size of costa rica. it is generally portrayed as very dense, very thickjungle. but with the oil deposits found offshore, and venezuela is also arguing its maritime borders with guyana, it really changes the debate. it has given a massive shot in the arm to the economy in guyana last year, and is expected to do the same this year, with at least 25% growth. venezuela could do without help. but this is perhaps more political than just the oil, that it comes at a time web mr maduro faces a serious challenge in next year's election if indeed his opponent is allowed to stand. critics would say the timing is suspect. they are suddenly interested in another place has oil at ahead of next year's election. oil at ahead of next year's election-—

oil at ahead of next year's election. �*, , , ., election. let's bring this out internationally. _ election. let's bring this out internationally. we - election. let's bring this out internationally. we have - election. let's bring this out| internationally. we have had election. let's bring this out i internationally. we have had a warning from the international court ofjustice in the hague wanting against further action in the dispute. but they say the referendum —— but say the referendum does pass, what happens then? what could we hear from the hague and the icj? ., , �* icj? venezuela. doesn't recognise _ icj? venezuela. doesn't recognise the _ icj? venezuela. doesn'tl recognise the jurisdiction icj? venezuela. doesn't- recognise the jurisdiction over this. what they go on to say i don't think will make much difference in caracas. but in georgetown they are interested in that ruling. the government was clear to point out it ruled in their favour and they feel they have international banking on this issue. certainly guyana's analyser, i don't think i would never allow this, necessarily, do reach a situation of conflict. —— guyana's allies. but we are talking about a tense situation. i think if the referendum is passed, ultimately it is about venezuela being able to say,

look, we have the backing of the people, to essentially incorporate this region, turn it into a new named state of guayana esequiba, they guaya na esequiba, they suggested guayana esequiba, they suggested would be called, and therefore incorporated into venezuela. exactly what that will mean on the ground isn't clear yet. and certainly the people of guyana and of this particular region don't like the sound of it one bit. fiur the sound of it one bit. our correspondence _ the sound of it one bit. 0ur correspondence there, will grant. very good to talk to you. thank you. —— correspondent. turning now to the un climate summit in dubai, where leaders have made more promises to combat climate change. around 100 countries promised to triple world renewable energy use by 2030. additionally, 50 oil and gas companies — including saudi giant aramco — pledged to stop adding to planet—warming gases by 2050.

that pledge however only covers emissions from production, not the burning of fossilfuels. critics say the promise would not meaningfully tackle climate change. the bbc�*s climate editor justin rowlatt has more from dubai. the pope couldn't make it to dubai — his doctor forbade him from travelling — but a cardinal read his words. climate change has "run amuck", he said, and he posed a question for the gathered leaders. are we working for a culture of life or a culture of death? to all of you, i make this heartfelt appeal. let us choose life. let us choose the future. some of the pope's demands are already being addressed by this summit. he said the world must move ahead with greater energy efficiency and more renewable energy. we got pledges on both of those today. and we had another new announcement from around 50 oil companies, including the world's largest, saudi arabia's aramco. they said they would drive down the carbon emissions from refining oil into petrol, diesel and other products

to net zero by 2050. now, that would reduce the carbon produced by a litre of petrol by up to 15%. it's better than nothing, but really, we need to stop using this stuff completely. the pope and the secretary general of the un have both said fossil fuels need to go. the american and chinese climate envoys entered the meeting side by side — a sign of their closeness on the climate issue. gentlemen, will you commit to phasing out fossilfuels here in the uae? i think you're going to hear a good discussion in the next few days. so, no public commitments today. the us vice president said america understands the challenge. the urgency of this moment is clear. the clock is no longerjust ticking. it is banging. we need transformative change and exponential impact. and it sounds like the president of

these talks has also got the memo. the world can break down if we don't rapidly transition to zero—carbon alternatives. these are facts we must come to terms with. so, does that mean the uae believes the world can finally agree to phase out the use of unabated fossil fuels? that's when you capture the c02 to stop it causing climate change. here's what the head of the un body that runs these talks had to say. we have to try and it's up to parties. that is un speak for only the countries of the world can make that call. but there are some tantalising hints here in dubai that we could be gearing up for a really consequential decision at cop28. justin rowlatt, bbc news, dubai.

seven years after it first hit our screens, the final episodes of the royal drama the crown, have now been released. the close bond between the queen and her sister princess margaret is once again a major focus. 0ur correspondent charlotte gallagher spoke to imelda staunton and lesley manville, who play the sisters in this latest series. a life of duty versus the rebellious royal. and the final series of the crown will depict the last days of margaret's life, and the very different lives of the two sisters. unexpectedly, elizabeth was propelled into being the queen. but at the heart of it, they are probably one of the greatest loves of each other�*s lives and very, very close. and it is so lovely for us to conclude this relationship from the first series to this one. promise me that i will actually be dead when they close the coffin.

she laughs did you find you felt differently about the royal family and elizabeth and margaret after you had filmed these series? playing someone whose whole life has been about duty, and i think that is why there were so many people queueing after the queen had died. because i think a lot of people were saying, "you went to work every single day of your life and you didn't call in sick." i think people were just saying thanks for turning up every single day, thank you. you at the queen had died when you are filming.— you are filming. weirdly, i had ten da s you are filming. weirdly, i had ten days off. _ you are filming. weirdly, i had ten days off, the _ you are filming. weirdly, i had ten days off, the ten - you are filming. weirdly, i had ten days off, the ten days - you are filming. weirdly, i had ten days off, the ten days of. ten days off, the ten days of mourning. i had to go back and filmed the day after her funeral. i think that was more difficult for other people looking at me.— difficult for other people lookin: at me. �* looking at me. but even when ou -la looking at me. but even when you play the _ looking at me. but even when you play the queen _ looking at me. but even when you play the queen on - you play the queen on television there is something

that you just can't replicate. there was something about her, she could stop a and make people go really quiet. she doesnt people go really quiet. she doesn't stop _ people go really quiet. she doesn't stop the _ people go really quiet. me: doesn't stop the room, the people go really quiet. si2 doesn't stop the room, the room stops. it is interesting, because she is there being that person. and we'll put that on — on her. i think, for her, you just become an entity. she has no control over it whatsoever. it is what we all do around that person that creates the enigma. it is a world we have to imagine because we aren't in it. and it doesn't stop people telling the stories and it hasn't done up till now, and nor should it, hasn't done up till now, and norshould it, i hasn't done up till now, and nor should it, i don't think. charlotte gallagher, bbc news. you are watching bbc news. we will have more view at the top of the hour. i am helena humphrey. goodbye for now. ——we will have for you.

hello there. there really are some treacherous traveling conditions around as we head into sunday morning. a major incident was declared in cumbria. there's been over a foot of snow falling in some places and we've got a wintry mix of rain, sleet and snow pushing eastwards across other parts of england and wales at the moment, leading to some icy conditions given how cold it's been. and some areas will see some snow as well, particularly here across england and wales, 1 to 3 centimetres, but 5 to 10 centimetres over the hills of wales and into the peak district. further north, scotland and northern ireland, clearer skies, a bit of mist and fog, and it will be a really cold and frosty start, but not quite so cold by the morning across southern areas where we've got the rain and wintry moves away from eastern most parts of england early in the morning.

and then england and wales look quite cloudy. some further rain coming into the southern areas, a risk of some snow over the welsh hills. further north, we'll have some sunny spells for scotland and northern ireland. a few showers coming onto some eastern coasts. some parts of scotland remain below freezing all day, probably cumbria as well. but further south it is getting a little bit mild at eight degrees, perhaps double figures in the far southwest. heading into monday this area of low pressure will bring more wet weather and some windy weather as well, particularly for england and wales. most of it is going to be rain, but there's the threat of some more snow, particularly over the hills of wales and also into the pennines, too. but we'll also find as the wind picks up, more wintry showers coming into eastern scotland. much of northern ireland likely to be dry with some sunshine. temperatures are slowly creeping up a little bit, five, six degrees widely for england and wales and also for northern ireland. still cold, though, for much of scotland. now that area of low pressure is going to hang around for a while. it does slowly start to pull away as we head into tuesday. still some windy conditions, though, around some of these north sea coasts and we still have some rain. it looks like it will be mostly rain. and as that pulls away, we'll see more sunshine arriving during the second

half of the day, signalling a cold night probably on tuesday night. and for many parts of scotland, those temperatures onlyjust getting above freezing, whereas further south, those temperatures are at sixes and sevens. now, as we head further on into the week, we are going to find those temperatures rising as it turns wetter and also it turns windier. goodbye.

voice-over: this is bbc news. we'll have the headlines for you at the top of the hour, which is straight after this programme. ronnie 0'sullivan is generally regarded as the greatest player ever to pick up a snooker cue. a son of essex, he's broken record after record and he's as exciting away from the table as he is on it. a child prodigy, he became the youngest player to ever win the uk championships. he's compiled more century breaks than any other professional... cheering and applause commentator: i mean, the boy is such a genius, | he really is. ..and his unbeaten 147 time of five minutes and eight seconds is one of the most famous moments in all sporting history. what a break! what a fantastic maximum break that is!
