a busy day of news today. we start live here injerusalem. and as israel intensifies its military operations in the south of the gaza strip, hamas officials say more than 700 palestinians have been killed in the past 2a hours. that number comes from the hamas media office. hamas is considered a terrorist organisation by the uk and us governments. this is live outside al nasser hospital in khan younis. this is an area that has been under frequent assault. further south in the strip, near rafah, at least seven palestinians were killed in an israeli attack in the early hours of sunday. israel says hamas fighters are hiding in the south. we're also keeping an eye on what's happening further north. this is live at the

israel—gaza border. that skyline which since the fighting began, we have seen the renewed plumes of smoke which had been quiet for a week while the fighting stopped. all this as israel has come under renewed pressure from top figures in the biden administration. the defence secretary, lloyd austin, has said israel driving the civilian population into the arms of the enemy, which would be a strategic defeat. our middle east correspondent hugo bachega reports. khan younis in southern gaza. palestinians have been seeking safety here. now, a target for israel's attacks. explosion hamas leaders are thought to be hiding in khan younis and people have been told to evacuate further south. the bombing of the city was the heaviest in the war so far, residents say.

translation: the israelis told us | that khan younis was a safe zone, | which led us to flee here. now, even khan younis has become a war zone. where are we supposed to go? our children are stranded on the streets. this was the scene when aid arrived in khan younis. 100 lorries with humanitarian supplies entered gaza from egypt yesterday. aid agencies say it's still not enough. chanting in israel, the agonising wait continues for the families of the hostages who remain in gaza. around 140 people are still captive. hamas says no—one will be freed until there's a permanent ceasefire. in tel aviv last night, thousands gathered to call for the release of the hostages. yelena trupanov, who's 50, was freed with her motherjust two days ago. her husband vitaly was killed by hamas. theirson, sasha,

remains in captivity. 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 rally was interrupted by blaring sirens warning of the risk of incoming rockets. prime minister netanyahu spoke for the first time since the end of the ceasefire. he insisted military pressure was the only way to free the captives. translation: we will continue the war until we achieve - all its goals, and it's impossible to achieve those goals without the ground operation. from israel's main ally, the united states, a clear message — it cannot repeat in the south what it did in the north. i have repeatedly made clear to israel's leaders that protecting palestinian civilians in gaza is both a moral responsibility and a strategic imperative.

talks between israel and hamas have collapsed. the families of the hostages hope for them to come home. in gaza, people hope the guns will once again fall silent. hugo bachega, bbc news. lets talk more about the humanitarian situation inside gaza right now. james elder is the spokesperson for unicef and he is currently in khan younis. i spoke to him just a few minutes ago. the bombardments have been relentless, bombs consistently, pretty much everywhere, because i have moved around. i am at the rafah crossing now, buti have moved around. i am at the rafah crossing now, but i was at the hospital in khan younis, which is a war zone. hospital in khan younis, which is a warzone. multiple hospital in khan younis, which is a war zone. multiple children going in with head injuries, terrible burns, shrapnel from blasts that have occurred in the last half—an—hour.

people coming in who had clearly been killed, ambulances, a degree of panic i have not seen stop it is a hospital i have gone to regularly and the children and families know me now, those same people are grabbing my hands, my shirt and saying, please, take us somewhere safe, where is safe? they are, unfortunately, asking questions for which the only answer is there is nowhere safe, including the hospital. nowhere safe, including the hosital. , . , . nowhere safe, including the hosital. �* . , . . ~' nowhere safe, including the hos-ital., , . . ~' . hospital. james, we have talked a lot about the _ hospital. james, we have talked a lot about the physical— hospital. james, we have talked a lot about the physical things - hospital. james, we have talked a i lot about the physical things people need, the medical supplies, the difficulty of getting that in, but what about the mental health support those children need? is that something they are able to get right now? ~ , ,., , ., , something they are able to get right now? absolutely not. this is not a lace now? absolutely not. this is not a place where _ now? absolutely not. this is not a place where children _ now? absolutely not. this is not a place where children can - now? absolutely not. this is not a place where children can recover. | now? absolutely not. this is not a | place where children can recover. it is not even a place for children. the nice thing is, in those mental respite, we talked to the boy who

learned electrical engineering and land english from the internet, a fourth—year medical student, he said, i want to help people, not very them. those people are all traumatised right now. i saw at this hospital palpable sense in children, as they hear bombs over time, they know there is another 500 crammed into the hospital, the little girl who followed me around, i realised she had two empty bottles of water and she was just giving them to me saying, please fill these up. any joy, saying, please fill these up. any joy, any childish nature that was there couple of days ago is absolutely gone.— there couple of days ago is absolutely gone. there couple of days ago is absolutel one. ~ . ~ ., absolutely gone. when you talk about hositals, absolutely gone. when you talk about hesnitals. under _ absolutely gone. when you talk about hospitals, under this _ absolutely gone. when you talk about hospitals, under this deal— absolutely gone. when you talk about hospitals, under this deal when - absolutely gone. when you talk about hospitals, under this deal when it - hospitals, under this deal when it was still going, there was a small amount of fuel coming in to help things like hospitals continue doing their life—saving work. it seems that has now ended. using any evidence of fuel coming into keep

perilous these... not nearly enough aid is reaching these people. it appears those talks to try and resurrect that ceasefire had fully broken down for now. have unicef, the un, have they got advocates around the table? are you in a position as an organisation to try and get those people who make these decisions sitting down and trying to re—establish a ceasefire and higher levels of humanitarian aid coming into gaza again? it is levels of humanitarian aid coming into gaza again?— into gaza again? it is a great oint, into gaza again? it is a great point. they _ into gaza again? it is a great point, they have _ into gaza again? it is a great point, they have certainly i into gaza again? it is a great - point, they have certainly broken down, but what i saw out there this morning, what i fled through, what i didn't sleep through last night, what i see at the hospital this morning, everything has broken down, the war on children has resumed and with the ferocity, at least here in southern gaza, that has not been seen during this war, and now the narrative is so dangerous. the idea that we... what happened in an awful

lot be allowed to happen in the south, well, i can bear witness to that it south, well, i can bear witness to thatitis south, well, i can bear witness to that it is happening. i know at the highest levels, the secretary general and so forth, they are having these discussions about getting more aid, but that can only happen in a meaningful way with a ceasefire stop at while we talk about, we know people start to die from disease, we can lose just as many children through disease as had been blown up. but whilst we can make that play, there is a big play at plano, you need aid. you need peace so the terror and the children and the bombardments and shrapnel stops and it is not stopping, it is getting more intense by the hour. this is a spokesperson for the israeli government.—

infrastructure. since the start of the war, the idf is located on trinder at —— 800 tunnel chat and destroyed 500 of them. our soldiers are finding large quantities of weapons in those shafts, connected to hamas's military assets connected via an underground tunnel network. many of them were found inside a nearby civilian structures, including schools, mosques, playgrounds and the idf has already released footage of one of those tunnels located on the grounds of a school, a clear crime against humanity and cynical exploitation of civilian infrastructure. over the weekend, the israeli navy has been targeting hamas naval military assets. yesterday, the idf announced it has eliminated hamas's military commander, responsible forthe

commander, responsible for the killing commander, responsible forthe killing of six idf personnel in 2014. he had direct responsibility for the atrocities on october seven, and was one of the into thousand two attack, can five israeli civilians in the anti—tank missile terror attack on a bus in 2011, killing an israeli child, taking out the terrorist there, a reminder of the enjoying threat hamas has posted a people of israel, not only on an since october the 7th, but on the dash in the 16 —— but in the 16 years prior to it. several idf soldiers sustained light injuries as a result of shrapnel and vehicle damage, and in addition, several launches of the area were identified, some of which fell

inside lebanese territory. the artillery has been strikingly sources of the fire. that is the end of the update. sources of the fire. that is the end of the update-— sources of the fire. that is the end of the update. that is you on leavy, a spokesperson _ of the update. that is you on leavy, a spokesperson for _ of the update. that is you on leavy, a spokesperson for the _ of the update. that is you on leavy, a spokesperson for the israeli - a spokesperson for the israeli government. giving a situational update on the military operation there in gaza. nomi bar—yaacov is associate fellow of the international security programme at chatham house, and joins me now. we heard at the start of a press conference there, he was talking about some of the hostages who have been hostages, but many remain. we have heard from the hostages families forum that they are once again trying to organise meetings with the israeli security cabinet and they are struggling to arrange that meeting. they want a resumption of this deal. do you think this can happen or had talks broken down for the moment? than happen or had talks broken down for the moment?— happen or had talks broken down for the moment? an excellent question.

the families — the moment? an excellent question. the families of— the moment? an excellent question. the families of the _ the moment? an excellent question. the families of the remaining - the families of the remaining hostages have asked for a meeting with the prime minister. he said yesterday in a press conference, in an address to the nation that he will meet with them at sometime during the week, which is clearly unacceptable because they are asking for a meeting yesterday, it is urgent. whether talks or not will resume or whether a ceasefire agreement or pause is likely in the coming days, it is either going to happen before a massive ground incursion or not, and i think the chances are very, very slim. unfortunately, on friday, the ceasefire broke down. israel did not accept the offer from hamas of receiving seven women. they insisted on ten. at this stage of negotiations, it is very important to show some flexibility. with the resumption of fighting in southern

gaza, we are risking huge numbers of casualties. no area is safe, the safe zones could very well turn into death zones. we have already seen 700 deaths and the numbers will only rise. it is very urgent to try to reach an agreement, but chances are slim. , ., ., ., , slim. the israeli government has made two different _ slim. the israeli government has made two different promises. i slim. the israeli government has made two different promises. toj slim. the israeli government has - made two different promises. to get all of the hostages back, and to remove hamas completely from gaza, which requires a military response. the two things at the moment could beat incompatible, couldn't stay? yes, they are wholly incompatible, though the israeli army continues to claim that the fighting is going to secure the release of the hostages. i beg to differ. i think that... the qataris and egyptians and americans

continue to work on trying to secure ideal, but as long as israel is fighting, that will be virtually impossible. fighting, that will be virtually impossible-— fighting, that will be virtually imossible. ~ . ., ., ., impossible. what about what we have heard from the _ impossible. what about what we have heard from the us? _ impossible. what about what we have heard from the us? israel's _ impossible. what about what we have heard from the us? israel's biggest i heard from the us? israel's biggest ally over the last couple of days, and lloyd austin, defence secretary, saying what israel is doing it risks pushing civilians into the hands of the enemy. the us language is starting to change, isn't it? austr is very clear _ starting to change, isn't it? austr is very clear and _ starting to change, isn't it? austr is very clear and the _ starting to change, isn't it? austr is very clear and the us _ starting to change, isn't it? austr is very clear and the us has - is very clear and the us has probably given the israelis a precise timeline. they said the war cannot go on forever. i would assume it would not go for more than two weeks from the day of friday, the day fighting resumed. i think that is a fair assumption given where the us is asked. i think everyday is very dangerous. 700 deaths is already an incredibly high toll.

lloyd austin made it very clear that he thinks with every bombardment and every single life that is lost in gaza, you are basically breeding more violence. violence breeds violence and the civilians have seen for the last 58 days more and more babies and women, predominantly women and babies, ending up in mornings or —— in a morgue is very dirty hospitalfloor. haifa mornings or -- in a morgue is very dirty hospital floor.— dirty hospital floor. how likely is israel to actually _ dirty hospital floor. how likely is israel to actually follow - dirty hospital floor. how likely is israel to actually follow the - israel to actually follow the direction that is being given by the us in terms of the timeline? do you think israel buell —— do you think israel will be responsible and respond to that? i israel will be responsible and respond to that?— israel will be responsible and respond to that? i think they will have no choice _ respond to that? i think they will have no choice in _ respond to that? i think they will have no choice in the _ respond to that? i think they will have no choice in the matter. - respond to that? i think they will i have no choice in the matter. israel is wholly dependent on the us for aid and it cannot continue the fight

with a taser and arrested. the suspect is a 26—year—old french national. officials say the man was known to authorities in france, for trying to stage an attack in 2016. french anti—terror prosecutors say they will be taking over the investigation. for more on this story here's our correspondent, hugh schofield. it seems quite clear that there is a link with what's happening in gaza, that it's spill—over. this man is a man, french national of iranian parents, born in neuilly—sur—seine, which is a very rich part of paris and lives with his parents now in the suburbs, so it doesn't look like he fits any kind of classic profile that we've heard recently of lone...lone wolf attackers. on the other hand, in the sense that he's not from a deprived cite or banlieue, on the other hand, quite clearly he does have a record. in 2016, he was found guilty of planning an attack in la defense,

the business district west of paris, in western paris, and was sentenced to five years in prison, came out in 2020, at which point it was clear that he had psychiatric problems as well and was to follow a treatment, a course of treatment. and what gerald darmanin, the interior minister, was saying there, was that one of the key questions is going to be whether that treatment was being followed. i think it's a conclusion that everyone is taking as read, at least in a kind of preliminary way, that there was a link with what's happening in gaza in that events over there and the publicity surrounding it and news surrounding it, would have triggered him into doing what he was obviously kind of predisposed to do anyway, having this psychiatric problem and a past record of radicalisation, and was on a kind of watch list

for the intelligence services. let's look at dubai now, and the latest from the united nations climate summit — cop28. the focus today is health, recovery and peace. experts say global warming is already having a "profound effect" on global health. today is the first official "health day" of any climate summit since they began in 1995. my colleague carl nasman is in dubai for us. carl, what is the latest? that is riaht, a carl, what is the latest? that is right. a really _ carl, what is the latest? that is right, a really historic - carl, what is the latest? that is right, a really historic day, - carl, what is the latest? that is right, a really historic day, a i right, a really historic day, a momentous day here, for so many years, they have struggled to focus on health and how that is being affected by climate. the us assistant secretary for health is here. underyour assistant secretary for health is here. under your leadership, the us department of health and services has started recognising climate change as a public health crisis.

the focus continues to switch from snow to rain through this coming week. out there for the rest of the day, still some snow flurries around across eastern scotland and we could see some on the tops of the welsh hills. but here and across much of central southern england, we're talking outbreaks of rain rather than snow and with a bit of brightness between, some downpours across the far south. northwest england, much of scotland and northern ireland will have a dry afternoon. there will be some lingering mist and low cloud for some where temperatures will struggle to get above freezing. and indeed, across scotland, even with some sunshine, some sheltered valleys will stay subzero all day long. but 11 degrees possible in the south, where tonight another surge of wetter weather, some heavy rain at times and some gusty winds spreading its way northwards. snow showers could be quite frequent in eastern scotland, adding to an ice risk here. and there could be ice anywhere where the ground is damp or the snow lying on the ground from, say, north midlands northwards. and on the dividing line between that and the milder air in the south, tomorrow morning's rush hour, monday morning rush hour, the tops of the pennines, the welsh hills could see quite a bit of snowfall at times. rain mainly to lower levels, but even to some low levels

we could see a slight dusting of snow temporarily as we see that cold air and mild air fight its way out. much of southern england, it'll be rain on and off. it'll be rain mixed with sleet and hill snow across the rest of northern england later in the day. further snow flurries in eastern scotland, west of scotland, northern ireland enjoying the driest and brightest of the day's weather. now, temperature wise, actually up on recent days at around 5 to 8 degrees for many, but with strong winds, it will feel cold. a raw wind will be blowing. all linked to the area of low pressure bringing us our weather tomorrow that will be slowly pushing its way eastwards through the night and into tuesday. frosty, icy start through parts of scotland, northern ireland, eastern wales, central eastern england, cloudy. outbreaks of rain, sleet and snow. quite windy, too. that becomes confined to east anglia, the southeast later. most, though, will finish the day with sunny spells and still quite cold, two to around seven degrees. remember, added wind chill in the south east corner.

ice tonight will follow, but things change later in the week — instead of winds coming from the north east, they're going to start to come from the south as an area of low pressure pushes a little bit further north than the ones we've seen of late. and that means temperatures will rise for all later this week. the price to pay, though, will be more cloud, more wind and at times more in the way of rain. take care.

this is bbc news. the headlines...

people are being urged to stay away from cumbria and only travel if it is absolutely necessary. a yellow weather warning has been issued across the midlands, northern england and wales. scotland has also been hit. with more on the situation, here's louisa pilbeam. the northwest of england has seen up to 15 centimetres of snow in the last 24 hours. in kendal, cars came to a standstill. on the motorway near tebay, drivers were stuck for hours. in grasmere, more people were stranded in their vehicles. and in ambleside, these scenes meant drivers were told to leave their cars and make their way to an emergency refuge. paul smith was one of those stuck there for hours. the snowjust came down, and as you can see now, the road all the way down is still blocked, we're still about 1.5 miles from ambleside, and it's just been like literally moving ten yards, stopping again.

this was ant brett's view from his car on the a595 in cumbria on his way to a family wedding. he said he was stuck for 19 hours without food or water or any help from emergency services. siren wails cumbria police and the area's fire and rescue service urged people not to take to the roads. a spokesperson for cumbria constabulary said... communities have been opening local centres for people to stay. many of our community have got that cumbria spirit where they'll crack open hotels and bed and breakfasts and help people out there who are tourists or even just visiting just for the day or even on holiday. with the snow, ice and cold

disrupting transport, there is also an amber cold health alert issued by the uk health security agency that remains in place forfive regions in england, including the northwest. louisa pilbeam, bbc news. harrison ward is a popular cook, also known as the fell foodie. he has been posting updates since saturday afternoon, and helping some of the stranded people in the ambleside region. he told me what impact the severe weather conditions were having on people there. yeah. well, i think it's just basically the sheer speed at which it came down really, and the level of what it is. i think ultimately a lot of people being out there saying that obviously the snow levels with winter tyres would have been fine, elements like that. but with the traffic that was on that one spine road on the 8591 going through the lake district, it doesn't take much for that to be shut down. so there was a couple of crashes out there from people who perhaps couldn't deal with the snow.

some of the big hills out there as well. reports of a bus spinning, sort of at bannerrigg, south of windermere. and that quickly brings that whole road to a standstill. so i was down in the town, at a property there, the town that i live here about 2:00. and you can already see the traffic really beginning to pile up there. people are really struggling to move sort of on the snow. and then literally about a few hours later, most cars have maybe got about 100 metres in about an hour's time. and then there was reports from a local bystanders to abandon the cars where they were. and then the parish centres and the village halls were opened up for seek those refuge for those who are seeking accommodation. so people have been helping each other, then? absolutely. yeah, the community has come out right into effect. there's been plenty of people down there at the village halls here in ambleside. i've had reports down at hawkshead too that the scout centre and the schools have been used to try and help people there overnight because some of the b—roads off the main trail especially have become impassable and no one's really moving out there. and of course, this is a saturday. it's a very busy area. it's a very beautiful area to be in. so a lot of the accommodation is filled up too.

so there wasn't anywhere for these people to stay, perhaps wasn't prepared for this weather coming in. it was forecast some snow in the area. but i personally haven't seen snow like this in the eight years i've been in ambleside. there are some reports from people who've been in the area longer that we have seen a bit like this further back, but generally you'd expect to see this in the high fells, but not on the roadside, but literally in the space of maybe three or four hours. we went from zero snow the previous night to a good sort of seven inches here in ambleside and reports of even 12 inches further down south through thejordan valley. well, as you said there, it sounds impossible to prepare for if it happened that quickly. what does that mean in terms of what people needed and will need if this continues in terms of tyres, for example? well, i think so far i think there's been a lot of cars abandoned on the road, which then has caused further issues. so i think that's caused the gritters not be able to get through with the level of traffic on there. again, people saying that they could have winter tyres would get through this. no problem is all well and good. but there's been some lorries jackknifed on the m6, the busted span, few reports of crashes. once that road begins to shut

down here in the lake district. it really causes it all to come to a halt. and the northbound heading out of grantham, you've got a very high incline. so it's very much been quite contained. and 12 miles north in keswick, i've had some friends send pictures from there and there's zero snow whatsoever. so it's very isolated in this area. but the police are still recommending no travel whatsoever in these parts. so again, whilst it looks very beautiful to come, you might think can be coming to hike in the hills, it's only going to add to the traffic problems on the road at the moment whilst mountain rescue, the fire service and various bits are out there trying to regather these vehicles, get them off the road and get this cleared and get it moving again. here in england, the cold weather is in fact one of the factors putting pressure on the health service. the health secretary victoria atkins discussed the situation on the bbc�*s sunday with laura kuenssberg. our senior news reporter tony bonsignore told us more about what ms atkins said about how the nhs is preparing for winter. the winter crisis last year will be lots of people will remember

it here in the uk, problems in particular with with beds and weights and ambulances and as the weather turns here in the uk now has been of course extremely cold over the past few days. thoughts amongst the public but also amongst politicians really turning to what we can expect in the weeks and months ahead. now, victoria atkins, not been in a post long as health secretary, was asked about this on the bbc�*s laura kuenssberg showjust a while ago and she said the government have been preparing extra early for this. this is what she had to say. we are going to do everything we can to do this. it's my number one priority for the winter because i know the worry that people have, particularly when an accident or something like that happens, a fall happens, we're going to do everything we can. and actually in fairness, the nhs has been working very hard to prepare for this winter. so it sounds like you're hoping for the best but not— you can't rule it out. the planning started much earlier than normal. as i say, we've got we're building

5000 beds in hospitals. we've got more ambulances on the road. and we've also got through access such as telephony appointments. i know not everybody likes them. so i mean, notjust for victoria atkins, the worries over the winter crisis, but there's a real political edge to this, which she cenac has made a pledge to bring down waiting list, which is proving very, very hard to achieve, but also ongoing strikes with junior doctors as well. -- rishi —— rishi sunak. that's all a part of this. well, tony, we also heard some praise from the opposition leader, keir starmer for a former prime minister, but notjust any prime minister, margaret thatcher. what more can you tell us about that? yeah, it's an article that the labour leader, sir keir starmer, wrote in the sunday telegraph newspaper today when he sort of sets out to stall, as he has been about what he wants to do as a labour prime

minister, the kind of tone he wants to set. so he kind of talks about the three post—war leaders in the uk that he most admires. it talks about clement attlee and tony blair, both labour, but also, rather more surprisingly, to some, margaret thatcher, of course, a very much a sort of known as a free market conservative prime minister. he says in this article, i've got a copy of it in front of me. he says, "margaret thatcher sought to drag britain out of its stupor "by setting loose our natural entrepreneurialism." he says even though you don't necessarily agree with what she did or he doesn't agree with what she did, he admires her sense of purpose and mission, the fact that she had a plan. now that's designed to appeal to a lot of conservative voters, but at the same time will upset some on the left of his own party, for whom she remains a very controversial figure. labour's shadow minister jonathan reynolds was asked about this on the laura kuenssberg programme a short while ago. here's what he had to say. well, the point that keir is making is that he has changed

the labour party and on the strength of that he can go to people and say we can change the country. and there have been prime ministers who've done that. i would think of attlee, blair, but thatcher was someone, even though i wouldn't support her politics, iwould recognise she was that force for change. and at the next election, if people want change, it's the labour party that will be the vehicle to do that. if they want more of the same, they can have that with the conservatives. but keir is in a position now to say, look, if you want change, if you want national renewal, labour is the vehicle to do that. what do you most admire | about margaret thatcher? well, as i've said, i think you can separate out the policy agenda. i mean, as you know, i come from a mining town in county durham, so on a political level, her policies, not something i'd be sympathetic to, but i would certainly recognise there is a formidable opponent, you know, an opponent you'd have to respect who had an agenda, who implemented that agenda. there was big change after the 19705. we don't need to discuss that. but there are prime ministers who make a difference, who do change the future of the country,

who do come with that consistent and combined agenda that changes the path of the country. we've seen that in the past. we haven't had that for the last 13 years. we've had, you know, things year to year, prime minister to prime minister. it's quite hard to even keep track of them, let alone their agendas. there are people, however, who do do it differently and i think i can recognise in someone like thatcher, someone who did that, even if i wouldn't support the specific policies that she had. fascinating there from jonathan reynolds and this article today by sir keir starmer. this argument that keir starmer is making and jonathan reynolds said that, you know, you can split apart the politics, whether you agree with that or not, and the mission and the sense of purpose. i mean, i'm sadly old enough to remember the 1997 election when tony blair won and had a meeting shortly after with margaret thatcher, who came into downing street at the time, very controversial, with many on the left of her party. but i think what this speaks to is, number one, about how far the labour party has changed in recent years.

but also sir keir starmer�*s knowledge that if he's going to get that majority that he wants and seeks at the next general election, he needs conservative voters to come over to labour. and for many of them, margaret thatcher remains a very, very popularfigure. let's get some of the day's other news. local authorities in the southern philippines say four people were killed and at least 42 injured, in an explosion in a university gymnasium in the city of marawi. the regional police director, brigadier—general allan cruz nobleza, said the blast occurred as people met for mass. the uk foreign secretary, lord cameron, will travel to washington dc next week to discuss the war in ukraine. he says he wants to reassure us leaders that the united kingdom will �*stay the course, and galvanise allies too.�* british train drivers continue their strike action as part of a long—running dispute over pay.

the avanti west coast, chiltern, great northern thameslink, and wmt train companies are affected on sunday. the aslef union has also imposed an overtime ban over the strike period. the government of peru has announced its increasing the number of tourists allowed at the 15th—century inca citadel, machu picchu, its most famous historical site. the move is aimed at helping tourism rebound, after the decline suffered during the covid pandemic. let's look at dubai now, and the latest from the united nations climate summit — cop28. the focus today is health, recovery and peace. experts say global warming is already having a "profound effect" on global health. today is the first official "health day" of any climate summit since they began in 1995. our correspondent carl nasman interviewed the former prime minister of australia julia gillard, who has been advocating for it

from the very beginning. here is why. we welcome scientific research. and the research was clearly telling us that the climate crisis is a health crisis. climate change already means that infectious diseases are in new parts of the world, that the food system we rely on for nutrition is being degraded in many places, that the biological effects of exposure to extreme heat are manifest and impact on people's health. and that's what we know now. we're investing £100 million this year alone in research to give us more information for the future. so climate, health — these are twin crises. and we wanted a day at cop that brought them together to motivate action. already coming into today, we have the declaration on climate and health, some 123 countries signing on $450 billion pledged. -- 450 —— 450 million dollars pledge to.

what's your reaction to that? it's a terrific start. i mean, it's wonderful to see the world coming together and mobilising and understanding the interconnections. 123 countries is fantastic, but we do need to build on this and to do more. and we are pointing out very clearly that the transition from fossil fuels is hugely important to human health, important because it mitigates climate change. and of course, fossil fuels cause air pollution, which we know kills around five million people every year. i was surprised to learn only 0.5% of climate funding currently goes to health. how do you think delegates here will go about trying to change that? get some concrete pledges beyond what we've already seen, the 450 million? yeah. i mean, it really does feel sort of counterintuitive, doesn't it, when we all know that our health depends on the air we breathe, the water we we drink, the food we eat, and that all of these things are impacted by climate change. so, yes, it's been a long time coming, but we're finally here. and i do think it is a motivator for climate action.

i mean, as individuals, we all know that there's nothing more important, really, than our health and the health of our families. we worry about that a lot. and so i don't think it's too big a leap to say to communities, well, if you're worried about your own health, you should be worried about climate change because it's going to matter for you and your community. and hopefully that makes more political space for action. we've seen so many visible impacts this year, the hottest year on record, but there are also some impacts that are a little bit less visible when it comes to climate change, particularly on mental health, which were only just now starting to to discover. right? that's true. and we also invest in research on mental health. we do know that trauma has a mental health consequence. and in many parts of the world, climate change trauma, extreme weather events are now more and more routine. and so that has to add up and be an extra pressure on mental health. and we do think that when people have just got a sense of hopelessness about the future,

i mean, i think all of us feel a frisson of anxiety now that in some ways is a normal human emotion. but for some people, it can become very, very deep and very destabilising and very impactful on their mental health. i wanted to ask you briefly about the other hat you used to wear as the prime minister of australia. you took some fairly concrete climate action. how heartened have you been by what you've seen already, those pledges coming in on the first three days of this conference? well, i'm ultimately an optimist. what i saw in my own country was bipartisanship then hyper partisanship around climate change, lots of arguing, and we seem to be in a better place now. so i'm hoping that the case for change now is so undeniable that we'll continue to see action build. wetter and warmer conditions, brought about by climate change, mean that mosquitoes can survive in more places around the world. and that can have a "profound effect" on global health according to experts.

in fact, cases of tropical diseases are now being seen in europe — but scientists are investigating ways to predict where outbreaks will happen. tiny and troublesome — these mosquitoes are one of the two species known to transmit the dengue virus. scientists say that as our climate becomes warmer and wetter, it's helping these insects to spread into new areas. if you'd told that, when i started many years ago, i would be focusing on the uk for mosquito—borne diseases, that would've really surprised me. however, what we're seeing in other countries has given us a warning that this could be something that could be a significant problem for us in the future. climate change is not the only driver but it's helping to fuel a global surge in this tropical disease. there has been a huge increase in the number of cases of dengue globally in the past two decades. it's now spreading in new areas, including europe. in the year 2000, 500,000 cases globally were reported

to the world health organization. in 2023, 4.5 million cases have been reported. the mosquitoes breed in stagnant water. not everyone the insects bite will develop the virus and for most that do, the fever lasts about seven days and the majority of people fully recover. but in developing countries where it's already widespread, dengue is taking more of a toll. in bangladesh, earlier this year, an outbreak killed nearly 1,000 people. it was linked to the hotter, wetter monsoons. that's why scientists, funded by the wellcome trust, are working to stay a step ahead of this disease. with a combination of on the ground surveillance for mosquitoes and new technology, researchers are developing tools to predict where outbreaks are most likely to happen. we're gathering data from global climate products, from satellite images, from field campaigns to collect data from drones and weather sensors and when we combine all this

information, we can develop models that can then allow us to predict the risk in advance and help target those interventions. sunday is the first health day of the cop28 un climate talks. experts hope this official recognition of how our health is linked to climate change will help strengthen the ambition to slash global emissions quickly. climate change has a profound impact on our health and we must ensure that climate action is designed with both health and justice at the heart. mosquitoes have no regard for international borders. here in the uk, traps for the insects are set at sites where they're most likely to arrive, like ports and airports, so they can be quickly eradicated. it's just a little black bucket with a polystyrene block and some water. so, an invasive aedes will come in and she will lay her eggs just on the polystyrene block above the water. 0k. and then, you pick up the block, see if there's any eggs on it.

if there are, then we can look to identify them. what do the eggs look like? you can see how tiny and inconspicuous they are. they look like dust. they do — they're easy to miss. wow. the problem is not going to go away, so more attention, more funding and more focus on these type of issues is welcomed. victoria gill, bbc news. before we go, let's leave you with some live pictures in gaza israel is shifting the focus of its operations towards the south of the gaza strip cities that are being hit with heavy air strikes and it is the third day of renewed fighting since the end of the truce. residence have been told there have been heavy bombardment. stay with us on bbc news. hello. the focus continues

to switch from snow to rain through this coming week. out there for the rest of the day, still some snow flurries around across eastern scotland and we could see some on the tops of the welsh hills. but here and across much of central southern england, we're talking outbreaks of rain rather than snow and with a bit of brightness between, some downpours across the far south. northwest england, much of scotland and northern ireland will have a dry afternoon. there will be some lingering mist and low cloud for some where temperatures will struggle to get above freezing. and indeed, across scotland, even with some sunshine, some sheltered valleys will stay subzero all day long. but 11 degrees possible in the south, where tonight another surge of wetter weather, some heavy rain at times and some gusty winds spreading its way northwards. snow showers could be quite frequent in eastern scotland, adding to an ice risk here. and there could be ice anywhere where the ground is damp or the snow lying on the ground from, say, north midlands northwards. and on the dividing line between that and the milder air in the south, tomorrow morning's rush hour, monday morning rush hour, the tops of the pennines, the welsh hills could see quite

a bit of snowfall at times. rain mainly to lower levels, but even to some low levels we could see a slight dusting of snow temporarily as we see that cold air and mild air fight its way out. much of southern england, it'll be rain on and off. it'll be rain mixed with sleet and hill snow across the rest of northern england later in the day. further snow flurries in eastern scotland, west of scotland, northern ireland enjoying the driest and brightest of the day's weather. now, temperature wise, actually up on recent days at around 5 to 8 degrees for many, but with strong winds, it will feel cold. a raw wind will be blowing. all linked to the area of low pressure bringing us our weather tomorrow that will be slowly pushing its way eastwards through the night and into tuesday. frosty, icy start through parts of scotland, northern ireland, eastern wales, central eastern england, cloudy. outbreaks of rain, sleet and snow. quite windy, too. that becomes confined to east anglia, the southeast later. most, though, will finish the day with sunny spells and still quite cold, two to around seven degrees. remember, added wind chill in the south east corner. ice tonight will follow, but things change later in the week

— instead of winds coming from the north east, they're going to start to come from the south as an area of low pressure pushes a little bit further north than the ones we've seen of late. and that means temperatures will rise for all later this week. the price to pay, though, will be more cloud, more wind and at times more in the way of rain. take care.
