1:02 pm
focus of intense fighting in recent days. you can see pictures there, thatis days. you can see pictures there, that is a map of where the fighting is happening right now. the health ministry saying more than 350 people wounded, but at least 195 palestinians killed in the past 24 hours, taking the total killed since the 7th of october two 25,490. mark lowen is our correspondent in jerusalem at the moment, and i began by asking him about the public sentiment in israel after the deaths of the soldiers. i sentiment in israel after the deaths of the soldiers.— of the soldiers. i think it would have caused — of the soldiers. i think it would have caused deep _ of the soldiers. i think it would have caused deep in _ of the soldiers. i think it would have caused deep in the - of the soldiers. i think it would have caused deep in the sense j of the soldiers. i think it would i have caused deep in the sense of national trauma, already very deep, over the fate of the hostages and the attack in october, the worse in israel's history. but now you have got a number of israeli soldiers killed in the ground operation going past 200, and as you say, 24 killed in those attacks yesterday, and i don't think in and of itself it is
1:03 pm
going to change public opinion here, but i think it is going to deepen an already subtle shift in public opinion. there is a feeling from families of the hostages that the government is not doing enough in their view to prioritise the release of the 130 or so remaining hostages, although 30 of them may according to israel already be dead, but i think there is a growing frustration against the government, and then seeing this big single loss of life in these attacks on monday will exacerbate the pain in the trauma. i have to say, the majority of the israelis are still behind the war and still behind destroying hamas, but at the same time, the majority of israelis according to opinion polls want the hostage release to be prioritised, so that is the nuance in public opinion that spread throughout this country. and in public opinion that spread throughout this country. and has the idf said what — throughout this country. and has the idf said what happened _ throughout this country. and has the idf said what happened yesterday? i idf said what happened yesterday? some of the soldiers were in buildings that were designated for

1:05 pm
heartbreak here. have we had any clarification around reports that qatari and egyptian negotiators may have to get a halt in the fighting for two months? i don't think we are there yet about the idea that they have managed to get a halt in the fighting, but we understand that negotiations are ongoing in that direction. certainly what the us media site is reporting is a plan that israel has proposed which would see a two month ceasefire during which they would be a phased release of all israeli hostages and the bodies of the dead hostages in exchange for an unknown number of palestinian prisoners being released from israeli jails, remember there are about 6000 palestinian prisoners injails in israel. after this two month truce, israel would reduce its military presence in cities across gaza and allow residents to return. to what? much of a wasteland, there is not much to return to. but we haven't yet managed to independently verify those reports. they are chiming with other reports we have had from other media outlets, and what we know of course is that
1:06 pm
the white house special coordinator for the middle east has been in cairo and doha are in the last couple of days, so certainly there seems to be some kind of movement behind the scenes in the diplomacy, but we have not heard whether hamas would accept israel's proposal, because until now, they have been saying they would only accept a hostage release deal that sees a permanent ceasefire in the war. mark lowen, thank you very much. let's look now at what is happening inside gaza. leo cans is the head of mission for palestine with the msf, also known as doctors without borders. earlier, he told me about his recent visit to gaza.
1:07 pm
i was in gaza for the last two weeks. where you and khan younis? yes, in the west, and i went to visit the hospital and the european hospital as well. what was the situation in those hospitals, and what was happening around them? was there fighting around the hospitals? ijust went there a week ago and there was already fighting quite close to the hospital. when i went there there was a bombjust 150 metres from the hospital. it killed two boys, four years old in five years old, and six more people, and 81 dead, so already the fighting was quite bad. in the last few days it becoming increasingly close. ijust talked with my team this morning, they are very scared with what is going on, they don't know where the troops are and they hear a lot of shooting and bombing. they are scared to get out of the hospitals because they are scared of being shot at, like it happened in hospital in the north, and they are terrorised by what is happening. it is not acceptable.
1:08 pm
they are on purpose terrorising health care workers. they have to bury bodies inside the hospital because they were too scared to go to the cemetery that is 100 metres from hospital. and what is happening in terms of treating people inside the hospital? what is needed there, how overcrowded is it? what do you have in terms of equipment? it was already overcrowded when i get there. people were everywhere, way too many patients for the number of health care workers, so many patience are just lying on their beds for days or weeks without proper medical care because there are not enough staff. currently more than 70% of the staff have left because they are scared for their lives, and this is not acceptable, what is going on. we are forced to abandon patients, to leave a patient to die on their bed. it happened in the north and again in the south, the hospitals are barely functioning any more because there is no more staff and no more staff to take care of the patients.
1:09 pm
patients are in critical condition and we cannot give care to them. it is inhuman, what is going on. is any medical aid getting across the border to the hospital? we managed to get some aid across the border, but it is very difficult to bring it to the hospital. when i was there a week ago we brought medical supplies, so they have some medical supplies. but when we talk about the north of gaza, there is no supply at all that can reach this area. when i worked there, i tried four times to go to north gaza, and four times we were denied by the army to reach the area. this is a completely forbidden under international law to forbid humanitarian people to bring essential goods like medicines to
1:10 pm
the population. what is going on in gaza now, it is too much. i hope we are not getting used to it. it is a massacre that is going on everyday, and i remind you that since the beginning of the war, 25,000 people got killed. if you just count women and children, it is 15,000 killed since the beginning of the war. it is 150 children and women being killed every single day since the beginning of the war. that is not a normal war. this is a war that is targeting civilians. when i visiting the hospital and the european hospital, i was shocked, truly shocked, by the number of children and women inside the hospital. it was mainly women and children. i have never seen this in any other war, and i have been in the wars.
1:11 pm
mostly you see combatants, and you see these people, and it must be specific that they get treated for very difficult wounds, a lot of burns, on the face, on the arms and legs, on the body. it is extremely difficult, and it is shocking and outraging that so many civilians are being wounded and killed. thank you very much forjoining us, head of mission for palestine with the msf. thank you. houthi rebels in yemen are warning they'll take revenge after the us and uk launched another wave of air strikes against them. in the last few minutes, the british prime minister rishi sunak told mps the latest allied military action was the clearest possible message to the iran—backed rebels that their attacks on cargo ships in the red sea are unacceptable. here's our defence correspondent, jonathan beale. this was the second time thatjets loaded with bombs and flying from cyprus carried out attacks in yemen.
1:12 pm
the aim once again to prevent them from launching drones and missiles targeting international shipping in the red sea. what each with ease are doing is an acceptable, it's illegal and it's threatening the freedom of navigation. that is why we have taken the action. —— what the houthis is doing is unacceptable. once again, this was a us led operation, the bulk of its firepower flying from its aircraft carrier in the region. the impact of the soon visible from the ground. there was a hope that the first set of strikes almost two weeks ago would stop the houthis. but they have continued to target international shipping. this video, posted on social media, purports to show a houthi missile hitting a cargo for vessel. they have damaged several, but so far there have been no casualties. washington now says its focus is on degrading the houthi military capability. but that won't eliminate the threat.
1:13 pm
are the air strikes in yemen working? when you say working, are they stopping the houthis? no. are they going to continue? yes. the first set of air strikes focused on houthi radar, missile and drone launch sites. these latest ones were carried out at eight different locations, including an underground weapon storage bunker. us special forces have also intercepted weapons at sea. they said this contained iranians applied missile components being smuggled into yemen. unless the houthis back down, the prime minister made clear more military action could follow. we are not seeking a confrontation. we urge the houthis and those who enable them, to stop the illegal and unacceptable attacks. but if necessary, the united kingdom will not hesitate to respond again in self defence.
1:14 pm
the question now is how will the houthis respond? air strikes may have destroyed some of their arsenal, but by no means all of it. this could all be repeated again. amid continuing fears of conflict spreading in the region. jonathan beale, bbc news. ukraine says at least five people have been killed in a wave of missile attacks overnight, with the capital kyiv and second city kharkiv among cities targeted. once again, people were seen seeking shelter in the kyiv metro. the ukrainian military says of 41 missiles launched by russia, 21 were destroyed by air defences. the mayor of kharkiv says two women were killed and nearly 40 injured in attacks there. another woman was killed in the capital kyiv, while there were two more fatalities in the dnipro region. i have been speaking to sarah rainsford, our correspondent in kyiv, right now. she is not up on
1:15 pm
the roof, they had to go down into the roof, they had to go down into the bunker. this was the second air raid this morning, the longer siren that sounded here since the beginning of this month, it lasted two and a half hours. �* . ., ., hours. and it heralded the arrival in ukraine of— hours. and it heralded the arrival in ukraine of seven _ hours. and it heralded the arrival in ukraine of seven dozen - hours. and it heralded the arrival| in ukraine of seven dozen russian missiles, we are talking about 41 missiles, we are talking about 41 missiles according to the ukrainian authorities. they appear to be targeting specifically kyiv and kharkiv, ukraine's second city which is of course very close to the border with russia, and that fact i think it's critical to understanding what has happened. kharkiv has been pretty badly hit again. we know that at least five people have been killed and several dozen people have been injured there, and we have seen pictures from the scene of rubble
1:16 pm
and apartment buildings very badly damaged. i have spoken to contact there who told me that she had multiple explosions, and she said other than fear and hatred, she said i don't feel anything any more. i think life there close to the russian border is particularly difficult of course because it is so hard to intercept missiles that are fired at such close range. here in kyiv we get a bit more warning, but still the damage has been fairly extensive today. nobody has been killed. one woman was thought to be dead, she was pulled from the rubble and is now fighting for her life in hospital here in ukraine's capital kyiv, but there is damage here, there were cars set on fire, damage to residential buildings too and ukraine's president volodymyr zelensky has talked about what has happened overnight as an act of deliberate terror, he called it, against ordinary residential buildings. certainly for people here it is another reminder of this now near daily reality of air raids and fear, and the threat that russian
1:17 pm
missiles could be heading for their cities. a russian man has been sanctioned for his role in australia's worst data breach. this is the first time cyber sanctions are being used in australia, and the country's foreign minister says it sends a clear message to international cyber criminals. courtney bembridge has more for us from the newsroom. australia has faced a string of large data breaches in recent years but none have rocked the country like the bank hack in 2022. almost 10 million people had their data stolen from the country's largest health insurer, including high—profile australians like athletes and even prime minister anthony albanese e. when the ransom wasn't paid, that sensitive health data, including abortion records, was published on the dark web. now australia's government is in using new laws to sanction the hackers. here is the foreign minister. this is the first time _ here is the foreign minister. this is the first time australia's autonomous cyber sanctions have been used _ autonomous cyber sanctions have been used it_ autonomous cyber sanctions have been used. it sends a clear message that

welcome to a special programme where in a few minutes' time we will find out which films will be nominated for the most prestigious awards ceremony — the oscars. it's been the year of oppenheimer, barbie and killers of the flower moon but after their success at the box office how will they fare at the 96th academy awards? and which other films will also make the coveted list?
1:21 pm
with me is our entertainment correspondent colin paterson. as we begin our chat, let's take a look at what is happening inside the samuel goldwyn theater very early in the morning in la. it is looking a bit quiet, but people are taking their seats. you haven't brought the popcorn, but you have brought lots of enthusiasm. i’zre popcorn, but you have brought lots of enthusiasm.— of enthusiasm. i've got a highlighter _ of enthusiasm. i've got a highlighter pen - of enthusiasm. i've got a highlighter pen and - of enthusiasm. i've got a highlighter pen and a - of enthusiasm. i've got a - highlighter pen and a clipboard. it is one of the few days all you have to use those, because we will get 23 categories in the next 40 minutes, trying to get your head around all that, work out what the big story is, that is ourjob, and you mentioned it at the start, barbenheimer. there will be a lot of talk about those two films, because for once, people have been to the cinema and seen the films that are going to get the most nominations at the oscars. . , ., ., , the oscars. that they have a vested interest. the oscars. that they have a vested interest- and _ the oscars. that they have a vested interest. and in _ the oscars. that they have a vested interest. and in terms _ the oscars. that they have a vested interest. and in terms of— the oscars. that they have a vested interest. and in terms of what - the oscars. that they have a vested interest. and in terms of what is - interest. and in terms of what is actually going to happen, as you mentioned, so early in the morning in la, but who is posting and how does it work?— does it work? this is the samuel gold n does it work? this is the samuel goldwyn theater, _ does it work? this is the samuel goldwyn theater, a _ does it work? this is the samuel goldwyn theater, a big - does it work? this is the samuel goldwyn theater, a big complex| does it work? this is the samuel l goldwyn theater, a big complex in la, and we will have two people
1:22 pm
reading out the categories, we have zazie beetz, probably best known for the moviejoker, and she will be reading them out with jack quaid, the son of meg ryan and dennis quaid. neither of his parents ever got an oscar nomination, we checked! that have slighted him. he has been willing to get up and get there for 5:30am, and he is into films that will be mentioned over the next 40 minutes or so, because he was one of the theoretical physicist in oppenheimer, and he also provided one of the many voices of peter parker in spider—man, which is absolutely guaranteed to be nominated in best animated film, and is so strong it could actually start cropping up in some other categories. cropping up in some other categories-— cropping up in some other cateuories. ., , ., , categories. one of the big moments we alwa s categories. one of the big moments we always look _ categories. one of the big moments we always look to _ categories. one of the big moments we always look to what _ categories. one of the big moments we always look to what is _ categories. one of the big moments we always look to what is best - we always look to what is best picture, and there are ten slots, a lot of movies. has not increased the profile of that category in a way that we nowjust profile of that category in a way that we now just see so profile of that category in a way that we nowjust see so many profile of that category in a way that we now just see so many films? absolutely. they went to ten films
1:23 pm
more than a decade ago, and the reason was because a christopher nolan film, christopher nolan across the decorate of oppenheimer, the dark knight rises, was not nominated and people began to realise that the film is that everyone went to see we no longer be nominated, so they went to ten films. they had to be a set percentage of votes, it went down to eight some years, and they decided that was confusing, so they decided to just have ten best films every year, so for the last couple of years we have had the ten best pictures, and it is exactly that. they think it will allow more space forfilms like barbie, forfilms like oppenheimer which people have gone to see at the cinema. and like oppenheimer which people have gone to see at the cinema.— gone to see at the cinema. and we have managed _ gone to see at the cinema. and we have managed to _ gone to see at the cinema. and we have managed to mention - gone to see at the cinema. and we have managed to mention barbie l gone to see at the cinema. and we i have managed to mention barbie and oppenheimer a number of times. have managed to mention barbie and oppenheimera number of times. i have managed to mention barbie and oppenheimer a number of times. i am auoin to oppenheimer a number of times. i am going to keep — oppenheimera number of times. i —n going to keep going with that! oppenheimer a number of times. i am going to keep going with that! what i going to keep going with that! what about some of _ going to keep going with that! what about some of the _ going to keep going with that! what about some of the other things that you think will make the category? they could be other films which push them when it comes to the most nominations, and if you get the most
1:24 pm
nominations, and if you get the most nominations, that does not make you favourite to win best picture. only three times in the last 12 years has the film with the most nominations gone on to win best picture. two films that i think are really going to be out there, could be around double figure nominations today, killers of the flower moon, martin scorsese at the age of 81 directed this film about the oxygenation, about how they were the richest people per capital in the whole of north america, and white people would marry them and then murdered them to try to get their money —— make a film about the osage nation. the first native american ever to be nominated for best actress today. robert de niro and leonardo dicaprio could be nominated. but one to look
1:25 pm
out for. and another film i am expecting to be around the ten nominations mark, poor things it is quite a film. it is an attack on the senses in many ways. it is about a woman who has her unborn baby's brain inserted into her own head by a sort of genius evil scientist, and emma stone plays bella baxter, the lady. tote emma stone plays bella baxter, the lad . ~ ., emma stone plays bella baxter, the lad . . ., , , emma stone plays bella baxter, the lad . ~ . , , ., emma stone plays bella baxter, the lad. . ,, lady. we are 'ust seeing emma stone now. she lady. we are just seeing emma stone now- she has — lady. we are just seeing emma stone now. she has to _ lady. we are just seeing emma stone now. she has to play _ lady. we are just seeing emma stone now. she has to play her _ lady. we are just seeing emma stone now. she has to play her from - lady. we are just seeing emma stone now. she has to play her from being. now. she has to play her from being a bab and now. she has to play her from being a baby and growing _ now. she has to play her from being a baby and growing up _ now. she has to play her from being a baby and growing up and - now. she has to play her from being| a baby and growing up and exploring herself and ending up working in a brothel in paris. she really gets, if you are an actress, this is an absolute dream role, because you get to display all of your talents. in fact she does get to display quite a lot as well, but let's not go into that right now.— lot as well, but let's not go into that right now. family viewing. and the holdovers. _ that right now. family viewing. and the holdovers. that _ that right now. family viewing. and the holdovers. that is _ that right now. family viewing. and the holdovers. that is a _ that right now. family viewing. and the holdovers. that is a film - that right now. family viewing. and the holdovers. that is a film that i the holdovers. that is a film that has not

1:27 pm
vote for the four acting categories. screenwriters vote in that category, and so on. so that is why there can be a difference in these nominations to the films that do best in the nominations don't do best overall, because people, the experts in that subject can spot something that they want to be rewarded. and subject can spot something that they want to be rewarded.— want to be rewarded. and when it comes to the _ want to be rewarded. and when it comes to the big _ want to be rewarded. and when it comes to the big night, _ want to be rewarded. and when it comes to the big night, everyone| comes to the big night, everyone votes for everything?— comes to the big night, everyone votes for everything? everyone gets to vote in every _ votes for everything? everyone gets to vote in every category, _ votes for everything? everyone gets to vote in every category, so - votes for everything? everyone gets to vote in every category, so that i to vote in every category, so that is how the oscars work, and they have increased the number of people who could vote by almost 3000 people in the last decade because of all theissues in the last decade because of all the issues that we know involving diversity and the oscars so white campaign when there was no actor of colour nominated, and i have done it pretty successfully. we hardly talk about that now, and you have things like parasite becoming the first foreign—language film to win the best picture, and people are saying
1:28 pm

1:29 pm
