in argentina, the right—wing libertarian economistjavier milei is sworn in as president. hello, i'm lukwesa burak. welcome to bbc news. nine weeks since the attacks by hamas killed 1200 people in israel, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says it is "the beginning of the end" for the group, designated a terror organisation by the uk government. israel has ordered residents to leave the centre of gaza's main southern city, khan younis, as fighting there intensifies. there was heavy bombardment of the territory on saturday night — and into sunday, as the head of the israeli army called for the military

campaign in gaza to be stepped up. meanwhile, israeli tanks are reported to be slowly advancing towards the centre of khan younis — with reports of house—to—house fighting in the city. the health ministry in gaza, which is run by hamas, says that 18,000 palestinians have now been killed since the start of the israeli offensive. israel says its ground forces have reached the centre of khan younis in the south of the territory — to which many palestinians had fled, on israel's instructions. the head of the un agency for palestinian refugees has described gaza as "hell on earth". 0ur international editor jeremy bowen has this report. at al nasser hospital in khan younis, they laid out the wrapped bodies of people killed in the night by israel. at the end of the line was a baby killed on the day she was born. laid across the bodies

of her mother and her father. "don't cry", he told theirson, mohammed. "they are in heaven." gaza has been turned into a living hell for civilians by israel's offensive. thousands of children are among the palestinian dead. their families say there is only one way to make a difference. "everyone is only talking aboutaid", said ibrahim. "we don't care about aid, we want them to stop the bloodshed." the americans say israel is killing too many innocent people, but they still blocked the un's latest attempt to vote in a ceasefire. the war has increased the tension in hebron, a city on the west bank holy tojews and muslims that has been a flashpoint for decades. most palestinians can no longer access property, live or work in part of the city centre. that's becausejewish settlers live

here, behind the security provided by the israeli army. extremejewish nationalists in israel's government also live in hebron, and since the 7th of october attacks, palestinians of all ages near the settlement have been ordered to stay home under a strict curfew. the guard dogs are owned by shaddai — necessary, he says, to protect his family from attacks byjewish settlers. weeks of lockdown in the curfew have paralysed their lives. translation: you could call us zombies. - we have been imprisoned for two months. we can't leave the house or go to work or take our children out. life is hard. the curfew has been eased slightly but the security forces still didn't like him talking to us. translation: they have - all the rights, we don't have any. they don't see us as humans. just outside his house,

the settlement was having a party to reunite army reservists with their families. it was to thank them for all they have done for hebron�*sjews, said the organiser. what do you think of the fact that the arabs are under a curfew most of the time? is itfair? "i don't know anything about any curfew", she said. "the way the arabs behave isn't fair." the essence of the conflict is here in hebron. it's a reminder of the depth of its roots and of the reasons why it has never been settled. and as well as that, the enormous sacrifices in terms of deeply held beliefs that would be necessary if israelis and palestinians are ever going to make peace. back in gaza, israel says civilians suffer because hamas uses them as human shields. israel insists its strikes are precise and intelligence—led. al aqsa martyrs hospital in deir el—balah, one of the few

still functioning, is overwhelmed. no more beds are left. no hope either. we will have the latest live from jeremy bowen shortly. aleema shivji, chief impact officer at 0xfam gb, says the situation what i'm really aware of is that something needs to be done. as we heard from your correspondent injerusalem, when people are not dying from the bombs, they are dying from starvation, dehydration, waterborne diseases. the situation in gaza is absolutely appalling. what are your staff telling you about the situation in gaza? our staff and our partners are telling us that people are starving, there is not enough aid getting through, and what little is getting through, it is almost impossible to distribute it safely under

the bombs, and without fuel. one of our partners basically said to us, we are doing everything we can, but we are also running for our lives at the same time. the delivery of humanitarian assistance is incredibly difficult under the bombs and the only solution is for a ceasefire. you said people are starving — how long have they got? some people are already affected by this for weeks, we are talking about the use by israel of starvation as a weapon of war, which is against international humanitarian law, we have been saying for weeks food is running out, fresh food ran out a long time ago, canned food is running out, we are seeing people in a desperate situation, lactating mothers who do not have any nutrition and we are worried about babies being born and not enough nutrition for the mothers to give the nutrition that is needed for their babies. we hear a lot about the palestinians

affected by this but as we heard from the head of the who earlier, he said that staff are working in unimaginable conditions. i want to focus on those staff working within the humanitarian sector. how are people coping because, mentally, this must be a huge strain. we have seen workers and volunteers who have lost their lives, as well. absolutely. the strain that we are hearing from our own staff, we have staff inside gaza, and our partners, it is heartbreaking to hear their stories of how difficult it is every day, they go to sleep every day not knowing if they will wake up the next morning, they have to explain to their children, they cannot explain, why they're being targeted. we have one partner that said to us, our children have asked us to pack our clothing in separate bags, just in case their parents don't survive. the trauma is absolutely

unimaginable. and these are people, they have the courage, they want to be able to help their fellow gazans, but they cannot do that under the bombs, and the only way to enable them to do their calling is with a ceasefire. whilst that is being sorted out, if it is agreed, or if it is not, what is 0xfam planning, what are your contingencies going forward? how far ahead do you plan? we plan as far as we can. we have colleagues inside gaza who are distributing small amounts of aid, we have partners distributing small amounts of aid. earlier this week we sent a shipment of water sanitation equipment on a european union flight to the region which we hope will make it across the rafah border, and we're working

with other un agencies, to ensure that as much aid as possible get to the border but the reality is that the rafah crossing, the only one open right now, is not geared up for such a large—scale humanitarian response, so until the conditions are met, it is difficult, for 0xfam or any other agency to adequately respond to the needs of the 2 million—odd people that need humanitarian assistance there. live now to our international editorjeremy bowen. first off, claiming that hamas fighters in northern gaza are surrendering. what can you tell us about that? no venue has been circulating of men strip down to their underwear, handing in weapons. -- there has been debate and controversy — -- there has been debate and controversy about _ -- there has been debate and controversy about whether . -- there has been debate and i controversy about whether they -- there has been debate and - controversy about whether they were genuinely handing in their weapons are being turned into some kind of

photo opportunity by the israelis. also debate about whether they were hamas fighters. without question, hamas fighters. without question, hamas have suffered serious loss of forces and of its men, but it has many others by most estimates. and it is still working and fighting as a coherent military organisation with a chain of command. we have heard in the _ with a chain of command. we have heard in the last _ with a chain of command. we have heard in the last 24 _ with a chain of command. we have heard in the last 24 hours, - with a chain of command. we have| heard in the last 24 hours, growing dire warnings coming from humanitarian agencies. today there was a resolution vote that was passed, tabled by the who, and its aid agencies calling for a number of things, primarily foraid aid agencies calling for a number of things, primarily for aid to be allowed in and medical access. something like that, how binding is it? it something like that, how binding is it? , ., , ., ., it? it is not binding at all. the israelis pretty _ it? it is not binding at all. the israelis pretty much _ it? it is not binding at all. the israelis pretty much do - it? it is not binding at all. the israelis pretty much do what l it? it is not binding at all. the . israelis pretty much do what they want. the americans are the main influence on them. and they have

pushed for what they call humanitarian causes. but when it comes to a ceasefire, which the aid agencies, the un, the secretary general of the united nations triggered article 99, which in un speak is about the most serious thing you can do to bring up the subject which he believes is jeopardising international peace and security, and it is this one, took it to the security council, demanding an immediate humanitarian, total ceasefire, and the americans vetoed it while staying at the same time that they were very sad about the numbers of casualties, it felt israel was killing too many. so i think at the moment the israelis are going along the path that they have set for themselves, and the americans, despite their reservations, despite feeling rather queasy about all of this, many countries now look at the americans

and say, they are complicit in everything that israel is doing, because it is happening because america is arming them and giving them diplomatic cover.— them diplomatic cover. there have been some — them diplomatic cover. there have been some comments _ them diplomatic cover. there have been some comments coming - them diplomatic cover. there have been some comments coming out| them diplomatic cover. there have i been some comments coming out of qatar, but the who is pointing to the fact that a number of diseases are being watched in gaza. there is growing concern, epidemic diseases, bloody diarrhoea, jaundice. what are you hearing, there, jeremy? the same as that. you hearing, there, jeremy? the same as that- the — you hearing, there, jeremy? the same as that. the international— as that. the international organisations who have medical representatives and are and are probably the best people to assess, better able to assess it than anybody else, are deeply concerned about the health outcomes and they have said repeatedly that the time is coming when individuals,

civilians, children, the elderly, the vulnerable in gaza will be dying of things other than war wounds. they will be dying of various diseases. and that is notjust yet starvation i would say about the kind of things you get from drinking dirty water, they kind of diseases you get if you live in very close proximity with people, there are a whole raft of diseases that happen in times like this, many of which come from the 19th century are the worst times of the 20th but human beings can still die from them now, and that is the concern.— and that is the concern. turning to those mediation _ and that is the concern. turning to those mediation efforts, _ and that is the concern. turning to those mediation efforts, there - and that is the concern. turning to l those mediation efforts, there have been comments coming out of qatar. the chances of a ceasefire seem to be fast disappearing, which means also hostage releases. what can you tell us about those efforts?- tell us about those efforts? there are not going _ tell us about those efforts? there are not going to — tell us about those efforts? there are not going to be _ tell us about those efforts? there are not going to be any _ tell us about those efforts? there are not going to be any hostage i are not going to be any hostage releases in the foreseeable future i

would say, because the negotiation teams are not there any more. the israelis pulled back the team from their foreign israelis pulled back the team from theirforeign intelligence israelis pulled back the team from their foreign intelligence service makatoa, —— mossad, whilst the qataris and the egyptians are trying to keep the talks going, both sides blaming each other but why the talks failed and why they went back to war after that pause, that truce, whatever you want to call it. so, no, i think at the moment there is a logic of war going on, if there is going to be at any point and exchange, ratherthan going to be at any point and exchange, rather than these quite tightly negotiated deals that were donein tightly negotiated deals that were done in that seven day period, it may be going back to what was talked about in the very beginning which is effectively for all remaining hostages for all of the palestinian prisoners in israel's jails, and thatis prisoners in israel's jails, and that is a deal that certainly israel

does not want to do.— that is a deal that certainly israel does not want to do. very quickly, there has been _ does not want to do. very quickly, there has been this _ does not want to do. very quickly, there has been this push - does not want to do. very quickly, there has been this push for - does not want to do. very quickly, there has been this push for more | there has been this push for more aerial attacks on the side of israel to push things forward. have you seen evidence of that, has there been an uptick in bombardment of gaza? , ., ., , been an uptick in bombardment of gaza? , . ., , ., been an uptick in bombardment of gaza? ., ., ., gaza? there is already a vast amount of bombardment _ gaza? there is already a vast amount of bombardment going _ gaza? there is already a vast amount of bombardment going on. _ gaza? there is already a vast amount of bombardment going on. just - gaza? there is already a vast amount of bombardment going on. just a - of bombardment going on. just a couple of days ago, and i24—hour period, there were 450 different strikes on gaza. and, with the force are available from heavy artillery and from aeroplanes and tanks and other weapons on the ground, that is a massive amount of munitions. jeremy bowen, thank you very much indeed for that. it's a big week for the prime minister. tomorrow, he gives evidence at the covid inquiry,

and on tuesday mps will vote on his revised plan to send some asylum seekers to rwanda. that plan came in for strong criticism today from robertjenrick — who gave the bbc his first broadcast interview since resigning as immigration minister. he said the plan was weak and won't work. but cabinet minister michael gove said only a "vanishingly small" number of appeals would be allowed under the new scheme. this time last week, rishi sunak and robertjenrick were together in government — allies about to announce a slew of measures to reduce immigration. it's a new experience for me but it was a very important this morning, mrjenrick was facing off against former colleagues. in his first interview since resigning, he said he would not vote for mr sunak�*s rwanda safety bill. i think that a political choice has been made to bring forward a bill which doesn't do the job,

and i think that at this moment, when you've got a small boats crisis where 114,000 people have crossed the channel on dangerous, unnecessary, illegal small boats, that we cannot take that risk. mrjenrick�*s latest intervention came in a crucial weekend when his conservative colleagues are considering whether or not to back mr sunak�*s plan. veteran mp sir bill cash has been examining the legislation with other lawyers on behalf of right—wing mps. his verdict in the sunday telegraph — it's not sufficiently watertight. michael gove disagrees. my confident expectation would be that the overwhelming majority of people who we choose to send to rwanda will be sent to rwanda, but more than that, you don't need to take my word for it, you merely need to see what lord sumption and a variety of other lawyers from doughty street chambers, from cambridge university and others have said. but it's notjust his party's right wing which is taking legal advice. moderate conservatives have concerns, too, of a different kind. we insist that one of the basic

tenets of conservatism that all conservative governments should stick to is the rule of law and meeting our international obligations, and so what we are spending this weekend reassuring ourselves, if we can, is that the legislation proposed actually stays within the law. conservative mps agree that small boat crossings should be stopped. they disagree on how far the party should go to do that. labour doesn't believe the rwanda plan will work at all. it really does feel like the desperate, dying days of this government. and labour understands that this is a serious issue, dealing with the dangerous boats. it's a serious for our national security rishi sunak has staked part of his political reputation on stopping small boat crossings. the coming days will be a crucial test of that. the new president of argentina,

javier milei, has said that shock treatment is needed to deal with the economic crisis in the country. after being sworn in, mr milei, a right—wing outsider, warned that the situation would initially get worse for argentine people, but there was no alternative to austerity and spending cuts in the short term. inflation in argentina is rapidly heading towards 200%. mr milei has taken over from the unpopular centre—left president alberto fernandez, but will need to negotiate with rivals as his coalition only forms a small bloc in congress. mr milei gained popular support for radical proposals including scrapping the central bank and allowing people to make money by selling their organs. argentina is experiencing its worst economic crisis in decades. the inauguration was attended by ukraine's president,

volodymyr zelensky. mr zelensky congratulated mr milei and also took the opportunity to meet leaders of several other latin american nations, thanking both uruguay and paraguay for their support. in the last hour, us president biden has invited president zelensky to washington for a meeting this coming tuesday to discuss in the war against russia. conspiracy theorist alex jones has had his account on x, formerly twitter, reinstated by elon musk. mr musk asked users to vote on whether or not to lift a ban on alexjones' account, signalling he would honour the result. the majority of people voted in favour of removing the ban. from the newsroom, our reporter tom brada has the details. this is the poll which determined that alex jones, the infamous conspiracy

theorist, can return to x. almost two million people cast their votes, with around 70% voting in favour of his comeback. and underneath the poll, elon musk had a simple message... "the people have spoken and so it shall be." alex jones is the founder of the right—wing conspiracy theory website infowars, and he was banned from what was then twitter, then under previous ownership, for breaching their rules on abusive behaviour. and this is a major u—turn for mr musk himself. last year, he posted in reference to the death of his first—born child and what he was referring to was this... sandy hook is a synthetic, completely fake with actors, in my view, manufactured. i couldn't believe it at first.

those were a series of false claims made about the 2012 sandy hook school shooting in which 20 children and six adults died. since then, alexjones has been ordered to pay more than $1 billion in damages. so, why would elon musk be willing to let him back on his site? well, elon musk has been a vocal supporter of free speech and this is what he told the bbc last year. free speech is meaningless unless you allow people you don't like to say things you don't like, otherwise it's irrelevant. the point at which you lose free speech, it doesn't come back. alexjones remains banned on platforms like facebook and youtube, but he nowjoins a long list of divisive characters who have been allowed back on x since elon musk took over including donald trump, kanye west and andrew tate. but it comes at a perilous time for x. many advertisers have already left the platform because

of concerns over hate speech. and the comeback of alexjones, a man who is synonymous, for many, with conspiracy theories, misinformation and outright lies, will only add to the uncertainty. earlier i spoke to the tech journalist will guyatt, who gave his reaction to alexjones being allowed back on x. all the money in the world doesn't buy you class or humility, i think that's the first place i would like to start. i am very shocked by this. i followed the sale of twitter to elon musk, i have followed elon musk for much longer. i don't know what comes from this, when you are wilfully letting a man back onto the platform that has been fined $1.5 billion for suggesting the death of innocent children was a conspiracy theory. and actors and actresses were employed. this isn't about freedom of speech, this is someone who has wilfully lied and been found out by a court

to be a liar and has been forced to pay damages and decided to go bankrupt because they didn't want to pay. so, this is not the type of person i should imagine any other organisation in technology would wilfully be welcoming back onto their platform. elon musk i think now is running x into the ground. he is either going to bankrupt it and blame the mainstream media and society for not making it work or he isjust going to keep riding this till the wheels fall off and we'lljust see what happens when it has lost all normality and use as a mainstream platform. i have no other explanation for this. a video shared online appears to show swimmers at a beach in australia, approaching a humpback whale that was swimming close to the shore. the whale can be seen straying into shallow waters

the whale later managed to swim back into deeper waters, a marine biologist told the bbc that the whale could have been at risk of stranding, and that this kind of behaviour is "unusual and perilous". stay with us here on bbc news. hello. for the second evening in a row, we have seen gusts over 70mph in west wales. of course, on saturday evening, it was storm elin that brought the very strong winds — whereas on thursday evening, it was storm fergus, with a top of 74mph recorded at aberdaron. now those blustery conditions will tend to ease over the next few hours, with the winds picking up across the midlands, east anglia, and southern counties of england —

might be strong enough to wake you from your slumbers. further north, the winds will be that bit lighter, and it's here where we will see the lowest temperatures. in scotland, 2—5 celsius, otherwise the winds keeping those temperatures up for northern ireland, england, and wales, so between 6—9 celsius. so quite a mild start to the day on monday. now monday, any rain left over across eastern england will be clearing pretty quickly, but there will be some patches of light rain coming and going through the day across eastern scotland. some showers work in across merseyside, greater manchester, and north—west midlands — but otherwise, it's a day where the weather will continue to get brighter and brighter with sunny spells breaking out widely, and those temperatures lifting in places into double figures. make the most of that relatively quiet spell because, on tuesday, we're back to another area of low pressure. this one slowly rolling in off the atlantic, bringing with it some persistent rain in scotland — aberdeen's already had over a month's worth of rain, so we could see some localised flooding impacts. bit of snow over the high scottish mountains but nothing to get excited about, it's really high up. blustery conditions in the southwest with plenty of showers, some of them turning quite heavy, with an odd rumble of thunder.

temperatures again quite widely into double figures, but again, scotland seeing temperatures around 6—7. now, that low pressure starts to pull away during wednesday — as it does so, the winds go round to a northeasterly direction, bringing some damp weather to eastern areas of england, but also dropping the temperatures progressively through the day — such that by the time we get to the afternoon, we're looking at temperatures typically around 6—7 celsius, feeling quite a bit cooler, but in scotland, around 3—4 for some. and then we have a weather front moving into that cold air wednesday night. could turn to snow for a time over the hills above 300 metres' elevation. the snow is short—lived — it will turn back to rain as slightly milder air begins to push in off the atlantic once again. that damp weather then continues eastwards on thursday. high pressure then takes over, giving us quite a long spell of dry and sunny weather. we have to wait until friday to see the best of that.

this is bbc news, the headlines... israel has ordered civilians in the centre of the main city in southern gaza to leave, as fighting intensifies in the area. an adviser to the israeli prime minister said he didn't want to see people caught up in the crossfire in khan younis. the world health organization says the war in gaza is having a catastrophic impact on health care there. it warned that health workers are having to work in unimaginable conditions. in argentina, right—wing,

anti—establishment economist javier milei has been sworn in as president. mr milei said that shock treatment is needed to deal with the economic crisis in the country. inflation in argentina is rapidly heading towards 200%. britains's former immigration minister, robertjenrick, has said it was clear to anyone involved with the government's new rwanda asylum legislation that it would not work. in the last few minutes, we've heard that the un general assembly is likely to vote on tuesday on a demand for an immediate humanitarian cease—fire in gaza. the health ministry in gaza itself, which is run by hamas, says that 18,000 palestinians have now been killed since the start of the israeli offensive. it's been nine weeks since the attacks by hamas killed

1200 people in israel. the prime minister says it is the beginning of the end for the group that are designated a terror organisation by the uk government. a little earlier, i spoke to our international editor jeremy bowen, who gave his assement of israeli claims that hamas fighters are surrendering in northern gaza. video has been circulating of men strip down to their underwear, handing in weapons. there has been debate and controversy about whether they were genuinely handing in their weapons or being turned into some kind of photo opportunity by the israelis. also debate about whether they really were hamas fighters. without question, hamas have suffered serious loss of forces and of its men, but it has many others by most estimates. and it's still working and fighting as a coherent military organisation with a chain of command.

we've heard in the last 24 hours, growing dire warnings coming from humanitarian agencies. today, there was a resolution vote that was passed, tabled by the who, and its aid agencies calling for a number of things, primarily for aid to be allowed in and medical access. something like that, how binding is it? it is not binding at all. the israelis pretty much do what they want. the americans are the main influence on them. and they have pushed for what they call humanitarian pauses, but when it comes to a ceasefire, which the aid agencies, the un, the secretary general of the united nations triggered article 99, which, in un speak, is about the most serious thing he can do to bring up the subject which he believes is jeopardising international peace

and security, and it is this one, he took it to the security council demanding an immediate humanitarian, total ceasefire, and the americans vetoed it while saying at the same time that they were very sad about the numbers of casualties, and felt israel was killing too many. so i think at the moment, the israelis are going along the path that they have set for themselves, and the americans, despite their reservations, despite feeling rather queasy about all of this, many countries now look at the americans and say, they are complicit in everything that israel is doing, because it is happening because america is arming them and giving them diplomatic cover. we will get to the mediation comments in a moment. there have been some comments coming out of qatar, but the who is pointing to the fact that a number of diseases are being watched in gaza. there is growing concern,

epidemic diseases, bloody diarrhoea, jaundice. what are you hearing there, jeremy? the same as that. the international organisations who have medical representatives there and are probably the best people to assess, better able to assess it than anybody else, are deeply concerned about the health outcomes and they have said repeatedly that the time is coming when individuals, civilians, children, the elderly, the vulnerable in gaza will be dying of things other than war wounds, they will be dying of various diseases. and that's not just yet starvation, i would say, but the kind of things you get from drinking dirty water, the kind of diseases you get if you live in very close proximity with people,

there's a whole raft of diseases that happen at times like this, many of which come from the 19th century or the worst times of the 20th. but human beings can still die from them now, and that is the concern. jeremy, turning to those mediation efforts, there have been comments coming out of qatar. obviously the chances of a ceasefire seem to be fast disappearing, which means also hostage releases. what can you tell us about those efforts? there are not going to be any hostage releases in the foreseeable future i would say, because the negotiation teams are not there any more. intelligence service, mossad, whilst the qataris and the egyptians are trying to keep the talks going, both sides blaming each other about why the talks failed and why

they went back to war after that pause, that truce, whatever you want to call it. so, no, i think at the moment, there is a logic of war going on, if there's going to be at any point and exchange, rather than these quite tightly—negotiated deals that were done in that seven day period, it may be going back to what was talked about in the very beginning which is effectively all for all — remaining hostages for all of the palestinian prisoners in israel's jails, and that is a deal that certainly israel does not want to do. just very quickly, there has been this push for more aerial attacks on the side of israel to push things forward. have you seen evidence of that, has there been an uptick in bombardment of gaza? there is already a vast amount of bombardment going on.

just a couple of days ago, in one 24—hour period, there were 450 different strikes on gaza. and, with the force are available from heavy artillery and from aeroplanes, and tanks and other weapons on the ground, that is a massive amount of munitions. —— with the force available. jeremy bowen there. tarikjasarevic is a spokesperson for the world health organization. he says the need for humanitarian aid is getting more urgent every day. the needs are enormous and the capacity to address those needs are getting smaller by the day — only 14 out of 36 hospitals in gaza are partially functional, with providing only basic health services or having only certain services available. more fighting, more bombardments mean more injured people who need trauma intervention,

while hospitals are really struggling to have enough capacity to provide that. on top of injured people, there is also more than 350,000 people with chronic diseases who need health services. there's 50,000 pregnant women in gaza. and on top of all of that, there is a risk of emergence of infectious diseases as people are pushed into ever smaller places with dropping temperatures and lack of clean water and sanitation. so, really, the health system is on its knees and what we need is unhindered and unimpeded access for humanitarian aid including medical supplies and protection of health workers and facilities. the special meeting of executive board of the world health 0rganisation just ended and a resolution has been adopted by consensus, calling for unimpeded,

sustained and immediate access of humanitarian aid, including medical supplies and also calling for protection of health workers and access for health workers to all patients in need. so, this is really good news that all countries could agree on this. what we need really now is a political will to put in practice what has been agreed. really, there is no health without having a cessation of hostilities and even if we bring medicalsupplies, if there is a conflict going on, there will inevitably be more victims, more injured people and more suffering for people of gaza. here in the uk, it'sjust two days before parliament votes on rishi sunak�*s revised legislation to send some people seeking asylum to rwanda.

but the conservative mp robertjenrick — in his first broadcast interview since leaving government last week — says the plan won't work. mrjenrick, who resigned as immigration minister over the bill, said it would become "bogged down" by legal challenges if it became law. but the cabinet minister, michael gove, said only a "vanishingly small" number of appeals would be allowed under the new scheme. the conservative mp wendy morton was chief whip under liz truss — she told me the issue is important to her constituants. for me personally, i am continuing to reflect on this, because i have some real concerns, because i know that my constituents — i have a seat that really does want to see us take back control of our borders, and so they expect me to represent their views in the house of commons. do their views agree with that

solution being rwanda? i think rwanda is one part of tackling what is a very complex problem, but i have concerns about the legislation because i really want to make sure that if this legislation is coming forward, it is in the right place, but, actually, it is going to deliver that change that i believe i was elected upon delivering which is around taking control of our borders, and taking control of sovereignty and powers as well. i have spent the weekend pondering on this and i am not going to rush into any decision. i am sure that there are other colleagues in exactly the same boat as me. what are the specifics of the concerns? are there other options on the table? is that what you are alluding to? what is the broader picture?

there are two specific concerns i have. one is the reference to rwanda being able to send people back to the uk. i am not entirely happy with that. and i also have some concerns about the amount of money that we have put into this scheme, or legislation, or where we have got to so far, so, i need to feel reassured that this is actually going to work and deliver for my constituents. could this be damaging for rishi sunak if it doesn't go his way? it's almost a vote of confidence. well look, i won't speculate, let's wait and see where we get to. but clearly, it is a key issue notjust for our party, but the country, as well.

wendy morton there. the new president of argentina, javier milei, has said that shock treatment is needed to deal with the economic crisis in the country. after being sworn in, mr milei, a right—wing outsider, warned that the situation would initially get worse for argentine people, but there was no alternative to austerity and spending cuts in the short term. inflation in argentina is rapidly heading towards 200%. mr milei has taken over from the unpopular centre—left president alberto fernandez, but will need to negotiate with rivals as his coalition only forms a small bloc in congress. mr milei gained popular support for radical proposals including scrapping the central bank and allowing people to make money by selling their organs. argentina is experiencing its worst economic crisis in decades. with more on this, our reporter

mimi swaby is in the newsroom. hello there to you, mimi. first off, just how much appetite will his rivals have to form coalitions with him? ~ ., ., ., him? well, we will have to wait and see. he him? well, we will have to wait and see- he has — him? well, we will have to wait and see. he hasjust _ him? well, we will have to wait and see. he hasjust come _ him? well, we will have to wait and see. he hasjust come in _ him? well, we will have to wait and see. he hasjust come in the - see. he hasjust come in the office today, fighting talk really dominated his campaign, he took an aggressive, combative approach, really pitting himself against opposing himself against his rivals. he is a small block, so he will have to negotiate with his rivals if he wants to get anything passed congress. he is a very dramatic, radical propositions, wanting to reset the economy and the state, ditching the argentine peso, doll rising the economy as well as illuminating the central bank. although he is very combative and radical, he has actually softened some of his rhetoric since the coming —— becoming president elect.

so we aren't sure whether some of his policies will also change or propositions, but he will need to negotiate and that will be one of his first major obstacles as he takes on this very difficult task. i believe he's changed somewhat, or softened when it comes to ditching the peso. where does he stand on that? ., , ., �* the peso. where does he stand on that? .,, ., �* ':: in the peso. where does he stand on that? ., "iii, that? people aren't100% sure, he seems to that? people aren't 10096 sure, he seems to have _ that? people aren't 10096 sure, he seems to have not _ that? people aren't10096 sure, he seems to have not really - that? people aren't10096 sure, he. seems to have not really mentioned it since winning the keys to the presidential palace in the capital, buenos aires. his speech today was also quite light on details— though he did say it would include a fiscal adjustment around 5% of argentina's gdp, which will take the form of cuts to public spending. these will fall on the state, rather than the public sector. he has a libertarian background so he actually believes the state should only control things such as security and that the market should take control of everything else. so people are seeing him

having a softer approach, he's not really mentioned many of these very radical, far right exclusive campaigning fan which gave him popularity. he campaigning fan which gave him --oulari . ., , , campaigning fan which gave him “oulari _ i. popularity. he was very critical obviously _ popularity. he was very critical obviously of — popularity. he was very critical obviously of russia _ popularity. he was very critical obviously of russia and - popularity. he was very critical obviously of russia and china, | popularity. he was very critical. obviously of russia and china, we knew that in the build up to the election — but today we saw president zelensky attending the inauguration in person. what sort of relationship to the two have? irate inauguration in person. what sort of relationship to the two have? we saw them embracing. _ relationship to the two have? we saw them embracing, laughter— relationship to the two have? we saw them embracing, laughter being - them embracing, laughter being shared, so that publicly puts on this very happy, joyous relationship. in the past, javier milei has really pitted himself against what he called communist countries like china, even his neighbour, his biggest economic

friend and trade partner, brazil, but he seems to be going back on these explosive and very controversial statements. he hasn't usually said a lot about ukraine, although he's always stood in solidarity, but he's really pitted and put himself and argentina on the side of the us and israel, saying those will be his main allies in this four—year term. those will be his main allies in this four-year term.— those will be his main allies in this four-year term. mimi, thank you very much- — a judge has strongly criticised the bbc for failing to release a large number of emails relating to martin bashir�*s 1995 interview with princess diana on panorama. the documents had been requested by a journalist, who was investigating what managers at the corporation knew about the controversial interview. martin bashir stepped down from his job at the bbc in 2021. our culture correspondent charlotte gallagher says the emails relate to a two—month period in 2020.

martin bashir was back at the bbc, but he was off on sick leave. and it was around this time that questions about how he secured that interview with princess diana were really mounting. of course, we know now that he secured that interview through deception and forging documents. a journalist called andy webb used a freedom of information request to try and access the emails between senior bbc managers and martin bashir over that two—month period. he wanted to know what they knew about martin bashir and what they were doing about him. now, he only received a small number of emails, so he went to a judge. it's now emerged that there were actually 3,000 emails in that period. however, the bbc has said that they contain irrelevant information or legally privileged information. but the judge has said to the bbc, you need to release a large number of these emails to andy webb. and the judge was also really, really critical of how the bbc handled the case, saying that it was erroneous, unreliable. he was really critical of the bbc.

now, princess diana's brother, charles spencer, earl spencer, he's been speaking to the bbc and he feels essentially there is a cover up at the top of the bbc. we know there are 30 e—mails between martin— we know there are 30 e—mails between martin bashir and the bbc at the time _ martin bashir and the bbc at the time we — martin bashir and the bbc at the time. we now think they were cooking something _ time. we now think they were cooking something up to make him unavailable for the _ something up to make him unavailable for the 25th _ something up to make him unavailable for the 25th anniversary of the interview _ now, in a statement, the bbc says it has admitted that mistakes were made in the past about this case, and it says it has improved its processes. it has also apologised to andy webb and the tribunal that dealt with the case. charlotte gallagher there. in norway, the nobel peace prize has been handed out to a human rights activist in her absence — as she has been imprisoned in iran since 2010. this is narges mohammadi, who is opposed to iranian women being required to wear the hijab. she remains in prison in tehran.

ms mohammadi's17—year—old twins received the prize on her behalf and read out a speech their mother had written from prison. 0ur correspondent bahman kalbasi sent this report from 0slo. what's being wrapped up behind me at 0slo city hall was the scene of a moving ceremonyjust a few hours ago, with the presence of the norwegian royal family, and officials of this country and other human rights activists who came from around the world to witness the award of the nobel peace prize in absentia — because only for the third time in the 120—plus years of the history of this award, the winner of the nobel peace prize is behind bars, narges mohammadi, from iran, a human rights activist who has spent the better part of the last two decades in jail, was not here. she remains in prison in iran,

but her two children, twins, 17 years old, her daughter and son, accepted the award on her behalf and read the very moving message that she has sent from inside jail, and listened to songs and performances of women all from iran, just to crystallise the demands of the women, life, freedom movement in that country that has become prominent in the last year as the force for change in that country. narges mohammadi asked for the international community to pay more attention, to be the voice of human rights activists in iran. now, imagine a sea monster with 130 razor—sharp teeth, the biting force of a t—rex, and a skull measuring two metres.

it might sound like the stuff of legend but the creature really did exist around 75 milllion years ago. it was called a pliosaur — and a fossil of its enormous jaws has been found off dorset�*s jurassic coast. 0ur science editor, rebecca morelle, went for an exclusive look. 0k. oh, wow! there you go. it's huge! unveiling a jurassic sea monster. this is the two metre long skull of a pliosaur, one of the most fearsome predators the planet has ever seen. it's got big teeth — excellent for stabbing and killing its prey. it doesn't chew its food, itjust breaks into bits. steve etches lead the effort to unearth this enormous fossil. so what makes this unique is it's complete. so the lowerjaws and upper skull are meshed together, as it would be in life.

to find that, i think worldwide, there's hardly any specimens ever found to that level of detail. it's one of the best fossils i've ever worked on. i'll never probably work on another one. this is one of the pliosaur�*s teeth. around here, the back is flat, and there are these two sharp edges and an extremely sharp tip. around here, though, there are these fine ridges. and these would have helped it to sink its teeth into its prey and pull them out again. this really was a killing machine. the snout was discovered by a fossil enthusiast near kimmeridge bay, in dorset. ijust found something quite extraordinary. it must've just come out of the cliff up there somewhere. the rest was excavated by a team dangling off ropes halfway down a fast—eroding cliff face. it was all followed by a bbc documentary team and sir david attenborough.

in these waters, underneath my feet, lurked the ultimate marine predator, the pliosaur. this gigantic reptile grew to more than 12 metres, powering through the water with huge paddle—like limbs. it would have terrorised the oceans. this is a surface scan of the skull of the pliosaur. scientists have learnt that it had a bite force similar to a t rex. what we're looking at here is the top predator in the environment. you know, this animal had a huge bite. it would have been able to eat pretty much everything else that was around in the water at that time, including some other very large animals. the exact location where the pliosaur�*s head was found is a closely guarded secret. the rest of its skeleton is probably still there and the team wants to get it out. the pliosaur will go on display in dorset in the new year,

providing a close—up look at this monster of the seas and the world it lived in all those millions of years ago. rebecca morelle, bbc news, thejurassic coast in dorset. stay with us here on bbc news. plenty more coming up shortly. but for now, bye—bye. hello. for the second evening in a row, we have seen gusts over 70mph hit west wales. of course, on saturday evening, it was storm elin that brought the very strong winds — whereas sunday evening, it was storm fergus, with a top of 74mph recorded at aberdaron. now those blustery conditions will tend to ease over the next few hours, with the winds picking up across the midlands, east anglia, and southern counties of england — might be strong enough to wake you from your slumbers.

further north, the winds are that bit lighter, and it's here where we'll see the lowest temperatures. in scotland, 2—5 celsius, otherwise the winds keeping those temperatures up for northern ireland, england, and wales, so between 6—9 celsius. so quite a mild start to the day on monday. now monday, any rain left over across eastern england will be clearing pretty quickly, but there will be some patches of light rain coming and going through the day across eastern scotland. some showers work in across merseyside, greater manchester, and northwest midlands — but otherwise, it's a day where the weather will continue to get brighter and brighter with sunny spells breaking out widely, and those temperatures lifting in places into double figures. make the most of that relatively quiet spell because, on tuesday, we're back to another area of low pressure. this one slowly rolling in off the atlantic, bringing with it some persistent rain in scotland — aberdeen's already had over a month's worth of rain, so we could see some localised flooding impacts. bit of snow over the high scottish mountains, but nothing to get excited about, it's really high up. blustery conditions in the southwest with plenty of showers, some of them turning quite heavy, with an odd rumble of thunder.

temperatures again quite widely into double figures, but again, scotland seeing temperatures around 6—7. now, that low pressure starts to pull away during wednesday — as it does so, the winds go round to a northeasterly direction, bringing some damp weather to eastern areas of england, but also dropping the temperatures progressively through the day — such that by the time we get to the afternoon, we're looking at temperatures typically around 6—7 celsius, feeling quite a bit cooler, but in scotland, around 3—4 for some. and then we have a weather front moving into that cold air wednesday night. could turn to snow for a time over the hills above 300 metres' elevation. the snow is short—lived — it will turn back to rain as slightly milder air begins to push in off the atlantic once again. that damp weather then continues eastwards on thursday. high pressure then takes over, giving us quite a long spell of dry and sunny weather. we have to wait until friday to see the best of that.
