200 countries at the un summit in dubai. the deal calls on all countries to move away from the use of fossil fuels. this is the first time there has been a clear reference to the future of all fossil fuels in a un climate summit text. but this deal doesn't include any wording on the "phase out of fossil fuels" — something many governments wanted. here is the moment the cop president announced the deal. i invite the cma to adopt the draft decision entitled: outcome of the first global stock—take contained in document fccc/ba/cma/2023/l.l7. hearing no objection, it is so decided. applause sultan ahmed al—jaber went on to praise the deal as an "historic package".

applause many said this could not be done. but when i spoke to you at the very start of this cop, i promised a different sort of cop, a cop that brought everyone together. private and public sectors, civilsociety, ngos, faith leaders, youth, and indigenous peoples. everyone came together from day one. everyone united, everyone acted, and everyone delivered. we operationalised the loss and damage and started to fill the fund. we mobilised more than $83 billion us in new financial commitments.

we launched alterra, the world's largest catalytic private investor that is 100% focused on solutions to climate change. and we delivered world first after world first. a global goal to triple renewable energy and double energy efficiency. declarations on agriculture, declarations on food, declarations on health. many more oil and gas companies stepping up for the first time. stepping up to deliver against a very ambitious goals and objectives. and, for the first time, to deliver on methane and emissions.

and we have language on fossil fuel in our final agreement, for the first time ever! applause the united states special presidential envoy for climate, john kerry, praised the deal as a success of international co—operation. i think, as you look around this room and you look at the number of people that are here, it underscores the complications, the difficulties, the fundamental challenge of bringing 200 countries together and finding consensus. i think that everybody here should...should be pleased that, in a world of ukraine and the middle east, war and all the other challenges of a planet that is foundering,

this is a moment where multilateralism has actually come together and people have taken individual interests and attempted to define the common good. let's go live to our correspondent in dubai, carl nasman. he is following all the developments.- he is following all the developments. he is following all the develoments. . , developments. that is right. it has been a very _ developments. that is right. it has been a very rapid _ developments. that is right. it has been a very rapid pace _ developments. that is right. it has been a very rapid pace of - been a very rapid pace of developments here in dubai. we all came in the early hours of today, we got the updated text and it felt like after days of waiting, it only took a few minutes for it to be gambled through and past. we now have a deal, this is the global stock—take which takes in so much ambition from the two weeks at this cop28. the biggest headline is that for the first time in decades, these nations gathered together have agreed to transition away from fossil fuels for the first time. now wejust fossil fuels for the first time. now we just heard after the gavel went

down, some impassioned words from low—lying highland states from the alliance of small island states. here is what they had to sayjust moments ago. zoning in on paragraph 26 and 29 of this draft... of this decision, we have come to the conclusion that the course correction that is needed has not been secured. we have made an incremental advancement over business as usual. when what we really needed is an exponential step change in our actions and support. mr president, in paragraph 26, we do not see any commitment or even an invitation from parties to peak emissions by 2025. we reference the science throughout the text and even in this paragraph, but then we refrain from an agreement to take the relevant action in order to act in line with what the science says we have to do. so despite the nature of this

agreement, not every country is completely satisfied. there are many developing nations are nations like samoa on the front line of climate change that feel this deal doesn't go far enough. i am joined by a of guests here. a pacific climate warrior from guests here. a pacific climate warriorfrom samoa guests here. a pacific climate warrior from samoa and also from fiji. we heard the representative there from samoa but speaking on behalf of the alliance of small island states. what did you make of that speech and the message behind it, is there satisfaction among people from samoa or similar nations on the front line of climate change, are they satisfied with this deal? simply, no. ithink they satisfied with this deal? simply, no. i think i echo the words of chair. _ simply, no. i think i echo the words of chair. that— simply, no. i think i echo the words of chair, that there is so much we needed _ of chair, that there is so much we needed to— of chair, that there is so much we needed to say but were not even given— needed to say but were not even given the — needed to say but were not even given the time because some members were not— given the time because some members were not in— given the time because some members were not in the room when it was agreed _ were not in the room when it was agreed and — were not in the room when it was agreed and she said she was a little confused _ agreed and she said she was a little confused as to what was happening. if you _

standing ovation after sultan ahmed al—jaber gavelled through this agreement. there was another one are from samoa and that lasted longer than the initial round of applause. i can show you there are plenty of concern still about whether or not this deal goes far enough.- concern still about whether or not this deal goes far enough. thank you very much- — back life to the summit and we can hear from the back life to the summit and we can hearfrom the uk ministerfor climate who is speaking. and on finance. we are fully committed to doubling adaptation finance and we realise this is just the beginning. we need to finance the beginning. we need to finance the energy transition. this all needs to be part of the conversation next year as we step up deliberations on the new collective quantified goal. mr president, we are facing an unprecedented challenge with the climate crisis. and although there is a long way to 90, and although there is a long way to go, and we need to move much faster, this outcome is something we can

genuinely celebrate. thank you. applause graeme stewart there, welcoming this deal which has been agreed by 200 countries at the cop summit in dubai. some of the day�* other stories. prime minister rishi sunak has won a crucial vote in parliament on his rwanda plan despite right—wing conservative rebels refusing to back it. the legislation seeks to revive the scheme to send some asylum seekers to africa, which was ruled unlawful by the uk supreme court. mps approved it by 313 votes to 269, a comfortable government majority of 1m. live now to our chief political correspondent henry zeffman at downing street. henry, good news for the prime minister following that vote last night. explain what it means in practice. this is just the first stage in a

long legislative process. in fact, it would have been so unusual for rishi sunak to lose at this stage because no government has lost at that stage since 1986 and yet yesterday morning, it genuinely seemed in question. you arejust hearing from the uk climate minister, the government was so worried about this vote they got graeme stewart to fly back to london from dubai, just to vote, and then to fly back to dubai to speak at the end of the summit there. that is how worried the government was yesterday. in the end, they actually won by a fairly comfortable majority, but at what price? that is the key question today because some of those conservatives who might have rebelled think that rishi sunak and his team might be willing to entertain concessions, to toughen up the legislation first we had a little earlier from james cleverley the home secretary about that. the bill has got to work, so it's got to be legally robust,

it's got to have legitimate arguments underpinning it. it has got to be effective, in that it's got to get flights to rwanda and it has got to be acceptable to our rwandan partners. those are the parameters through which any amendments need to be seen. if people are putting forward good faith amendments in an attempt to improve the bill, make it stronger, what is already an incredibly tough bill, the toughest bill we have taken forward through the house on immigration, of course we will listen to them, but what we are also going to do is defend this against attempts to undermine it, like we saw from the labour party last night. what does this ongoing fracture in the party mean for the leadership of the party mean for the leadership of the prime minister as he heads towards a general election possibly in the next 12 months or so? i think it makes it harderfor him to assert his authority over a party which, as we have seen for years now, just has an insatiable appetite

for controversy, for drama, for splits, for fractures. for controversy, for drama, for splits, forfractures. that is for controversy, for drama, for splits, for fractures. that is true right back to david cameron and certainly true under theresa may. four years ago yesterday, boris johnson won a landslide majority which was meant to snuff all of that out. it was meant to give him the authority to govern for years to come in in whatever way he wished. that is not how it turned out. then there was liz truss, turfed out by conservative mps within six weeks and now rishi sunak grappling with splits all over again. i think a lot of conservative mps fear that whatever issue it may be at any given time, and obviously it was immigration and asylum yesterday and will be again in the new year, but fear that what i never issue you just have now a small group, sometimes actually a fairly large group of conservative mps, who don't trust the leadership of the prime minister, who don't trust his decisions. in the words of one minister, that makes the conservative party ungovernable. but

for rishi sunak, that isjust unbelievably frustrating because he is trying to do something unprecedented, which is when, any party, in his case a conservative party, a fifth consecutive term in government and that is hard at any time. especially hard when his party appears to be divided on fairly fundamental questions. fiifi appears to be divided on fairly fundamental questions. 0k, henry, thank ou fundamental questions. 0k, henry, thank you very _ fundamental questions. 0k, henry, thank you very much. _ fundamental questions. 0k, henry, thank you very much. let's - fundamental questions. 0k, henry, thank you very much. let's get - fundamental questions. 0k, henry, | thank you very much. let's get more now and the actual legislation. joining me now is hannah white, director at independent think tank the institute for government. good to see you and thank you for being with us. what does the passing of this bill mean in practice, what happens next question about the bill has only passed its first parliamentary stage in the first house of parliament. it parliamentary stage in the first house of parliament.— parliamentary stage in the first house of parliament. it has been introduced _ house of parliament. it has been introduced in _ house of parliament. it has been introduced in the _ house of parliament. it has been introduced in the house - house of parliament. it has been introduced in the house of- house of parliament. it has been - introduced in the house of commons and had its second reading which means the house of lords has agreed in principle to pass this legislation. but now, next, what will happen in the new year as we go into the more detailed stages where it is possible for specific changes to the bill to be proposed. that i think it's going to be a difficult stage for rishi sunak. he has to see

whether he can offer something to those who are unhappy that the bill isn't strong enough, while not upsetting those who fear it is already too strong. it needs to go through those stages in the house of commons and then it has to go to the house of lords and go through all the same stages there. so the legislative process is far from over. ~ ., legislative process is far from over, ~ ., ., legislative process is far from over. ~ . ., ., legislative process is far from over. . ., . ., , over. what about other challenges it could face? — over. what about other challenges it could face? some _ over. what about other challenges it could face? some expert _ over. what about other challenges it could face? some expert lawyers - could face? some expert lawyers describe the legislation is potentially setting up a fight with the supreme court and the european court of human rights. just explain why. 50 court of human rights. just explain wh _ ., ., , court of human rights. just explain wh . ., ., , , court of human rights. just explain why. so although the bill tries to shut down various _ why. so although the bill tries to shut down various different - why. so although the bill tries to i shut down various different grounds for appeal against asylum seekers being removed to rwanda, which have been used to date, it opens the possibility of individuals being able to challenge their removal due to the personal circumstances. so it shuts down the possibility of blanket cases but individuals can

still challenge and they can still take an individual case to the european court of human rights and test the law in that context. that is what i think some of the conservative party are worried about, that that will in itself slow down the policy being implemented and of course the government is operating on a tight timeframe now. it has to have a general election by january of next year and that means if the bill takes a while to pass and then gets bogged down in the courts, they might not be able to implement that policy as they promised to do and that might impede their chances at the next election, is what those conservatives fear. really interesting to get your thoughts, hannah white. thank you for being with us. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. let's look at some other stories making the news. the president of harvard university, claudine gay, is to keep herjob despite calls for her removal following remarks

at a congressional hearing into antisemitism on college campuses. but in a letter over the weekend, nearly 700 staff members rallied behind her. part of a seven—storey residential building has collapsed in the bronx neighbourhood in new york city. apartments were left exposed as debris fell directly onto the street below. emergency responders said no serious injuries had been reported and no trapped victims had been in the rubble. the block was undergoing repairs before the incident took place. all seven members of k—pop supergroup bts are now enlisted in south korea's army. it's mandatory for all able bodied men aged 18—28 to sign up for military service. the band are expected to complete their run by mid—2025. their record label bighit music said in a statement bts were "honoured to serve" their country. you're live with bbc news. after an overwhelming vote for a ceasefire at the united nations, president biden has warned israel

that its tactics in gaza are losing it international support. the us was one ofjust ten countries to oppose the resolution. biden has faced growing pressure, including from within his own democratic party, to rein in israel's military campaign. whilst he reiterated that israel could count on us backing, during a press conference alongside the ukrainian president, joe biden said defeating hamas should not come at the cost of innocent civillians. we can go live now to our correspondence. in fact... live now to nibal farasakh, from the palestinian red crescent society. welcome to you, thank you for being with us. what is the latest you can tell us about the aid getting through and the people it is managing to reach?- through and the people it is manauuin to reach? ., managing to reach? good morning, thanks for having _ managing to reach? good morning, thanks for having me. _ managing to reach? good morning, thanks for having me. the - managing to reach? good morning, | thanks for having me. the palestine red crescent continues to get aid and in collaboration with the

egyptian red crescent. yesterday, we have received around 107 trucks loaded with humanitarian aid, food, water, relief items, medicines and medical supplies. water, relief items, medicines and medicalsupplies. however, since water, relief items, medicines and medical supplies. however, since the beginning of the escalation adopted this moment, what was getting into gaza in terms of the humanitarian aid barely meets 10% of the needs. all peoples in gaza, the whole population, are suffering from hunger. people are lacking food, water, electricity and medicine, as well as fuel and this is also affecting the situation of the health system, which is literally collapsed after majority of hospitals went out of service and those who are still operating are barely able to provide the minimum medical services, since they are overwhelmed with increased and

alarming numbers of casualties. as you know, since the beginning of the escalation up to this moment, the number of victims we are talking about, around 76,000 palestinians were killed, injured, but even are still missing under the rubble. this is absolutely an alarming number, especially that most of them are children and women. there are 8000 children and women. there are 8000 children who have been killed since the beginning of the escalation and now, after israel intensified the air strikes on the area south of gaza, we are seeing palestinians who don't have any option to go, 85% of the palestinians were forced to flee south of gaza and now again, after,

in khan younis, israel forcing those palestinians to go towards rafah. rafah is already packed. there is no place in any shelter for any new people and people are struggling to have shelter, as well as food and water for their families. unfortunately, children in waterfor theirfamilies. unfortunately, children in gaza, they barely have a one meal a day, which is now an extreme challenge for every parent to provide their children, even withjust for every parent to provide their children, even with just one meal, which doesn't even include everything. now having bred became a dream for every palestinian, just to have some bread. the situation is simply dire and all palestinians completely relied now on humanitarian aid, which doesn't even scratch the surface. of their needs. 0k, nibal scratch the surface. of their needs. ok, nibal farasakh from the palestinian red crescent society, thank you forjoining us.

let's get the latest on the situation on the ground. live now to jerusalem and our correspondent yolande knell. ijust want i just want to pick up ijust want to pick up on i just want to pick up on those comments made by president biden overnight, saying that israel is losing global support over its bombing of gaza. tell us a bit more about what he had to say the reaction on israel to his comments. yes, so this is really the strongest public criticism we have had from the us president when it comes to the us president when it comes to the us president when it comes to the us ally israel since the war began over the conduct of the war, really. of course, israel is looking so much to the us for its strong support, physically at the un. we have had a lot of criticism in recent days from israeli officials about the way that the un is reacting in general to the war that it's conducting in gaza, with the ambassador, israel's ambassador to the un coming out with strong comments ahead of the un general

assembly vote saying basically a ceasefire would mean only one thing, that was the survival of hamas, an organisation committed to the annihilation of israel and jewish people. they have said they don't believe a ceasefire at this stage would be right because it would only benefit to hamas, that is the position of israel too but we are seeing from joe biden these comments also saying that the prime minister needs to change his hard—line government in israel, also it needs to see from israel more attention to the future. what comes next in the gaza strip, how to end the decades—old conflict with the palestinians. we know there are senior us officials who will be coming here in the coming days, talking both about what is happening with the war and also what comes next. ., ~ with the war and also what comes next. . ,, , ., with the war and also what comes next. ., ~' , ., , with the war and also what comes next. . ,, i. , . next. thank you very much. in the ast few next. thank you very much. in the past few minutes, _ next. thank you very much. in the past few minutes, pope _ next. thank you very much. in the past few minutes, pope francis i next. thank you very much. in the l past few minutes, pope francis has given some comments from vatican city. he has asked for a ceasefire. he asked for it to be immediate. he

for northern england, much of wales and down through the south—west of england. still rather blustery for irish sea coasts to put some more sunshine for northern ireland and for much of scotland but some lingering freezing fog for quite some time. it will be feeling colder as well, 5—10 degrees celsius north—south, quite a chilly northerly wind blowing. but it's only a brief cold spell because then we've got a warm front waiting out towards the north—west that's going to be pushing southwards and eastwards on wednesday night, turning briefly to snow across the highlands, the pennines, southern uplands perhaps before quickly turning back to rain. that weather front is weakening as it pushes southwards and eastwards, bringing milderfeeling air. a few patches of drizzle, some increased cloud in the south—east of england on thursday afternoon. but, again, an improving picture from the west and some showers just pushing into western scotland, too. temperatures starting to climb for many towards the west but still rather chilly towards the south and the east. now, on friday morning, a cold start again for the south and the east, we will see a lot of cloud out towards the west. a south—westerly wind now and we are starting to see some
