hello, i'm tanya beckett. a row has erupted between israel and brazil after brazilian president lula da silva, accused israel of committing genocide in gaza, comparing its actions to hitler's campaign to exterminate jews during the second world war. mr da silva was speaking at the african union summit in addis ababa. translation: what is happening in the gaza strip with the palestinian i people has parallel with other historical moments. in fact, it only existed when hitler decided to kill thejews. in the last hour we've heard a response from israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu. he says the israel defence force is going to lengths to prevent civilian deaths but angrily dismissed lula da silva's comments. today, the president of brazil, by comparing israel's war in gaza against hamas — a genocidal terrorist organisation —

to the holocaust, president silva has disgraced the memory of 6 millionjews murdered by the nazis, and he's demonized thejewish state like the most virulent anti—semite. he should be ashamed of himself. paul adams is injersusalem for us — he spoke to me earlier and explained and explained more about the israeli goverments reaction. he was clearly very offended. as were other israeli ministers. the brazilian ambassador is likely to be called into the foreign ministry to explain his president's actions both benjamin netanyahu said comparisons between israel and the nazis and hitler was crossing a red line. it is profoundly offensive to all israelis to suggest what is happening in gaza today has any connection or comparison to what the nazis did to 6 millionjews in world war ii. and the israelis are clearly not in the mood to let

these remarks pass. he is not alone in expressing concern about the israeli operation in gaza. he is not and of course this comes on the heels of a move by south africa to press the case at the international court ofjustice that israel is committing genocide in gaza. that is a case where the court has given israel another ten days i think before it needs to respond to a series of provisional measures to prove that it is not committing those sorts of offences. you have in south africa and brazil two influential members of the so—called brics, including russia and china and india, who are essentially making a similar argument and that is a measure of the kind of international pressure and probing that is building up.

for all israel's protest and revulsion at these remarks, these are clearly worrying signs. benjamin netanyahu spoke in a press conference yesterday and reiterated as he saw it his case for the assault on rafah. however, it appears preparations are being made in egypt to receive palestinians. this remains a bit of a mystery because it is hard to see what else those preparations can be for, but egyptian officials including the foreign minister who has spoken about this at the munich security conference, have been a little bit coy. on the one hand they say this is not what they are doing but on the other hand, they are indicating that if there is a humanitarian area need, they will be there for any palestinians who need them. but what we're seeing is a kind of provisional arrangement, an enclosure in the desert, right next to the rafah crossing, which the egyptians are preparing for the possible arrival

of a significant number of palestinians in the event of an assault by israel on rafah, but of course at the same time, the israelis are saying, we're not to force anyone to cross that border. israeli officials still say they are working on a plan to get that 1.3, 1.4 million civilians who are in rafah out of harms way ahead of any kind of offensive but there is no indication of what that plan will actually be and in the absence of a plan and with these constructions going on just across the border, of course palestinians are deeply apprehensive. so how unusual is it for lula da silva to speak out in this way? our correspondent, mimi swaby, has this reaction mimi swaby, has this reaction from south america. this isn't the first time president lula da silva

has thrown his hat into the ring with strong word choice. the outspoken left wing president is pushing for brazil to take a more present and progressive stance on the world stage, especially after his predecessor, right wing jair bolsonaro. lula is seen as a president who stands up for the underdog. domestically with his fight for indigenous rights and land restoration. on sunday, lula warned against rushing to conclusions surrounding the death of the russian opposition leader alexei navalny, breaking away from many other western leaders. lula's criticism of israel's operations in gaza are the latest in a chain of strong criticism from the region. like many other leaders in latin america, he's unafraid of making international controversy through bold statements. the world health organization says the biggest hospital in southern gaza is now no longerfunctioning, after a raid by israeli forces. the head of the who, said a team from the organisation had not been allowed to enter the nasser hospital

in the city of khan younis to assess the condition of the 200 remaining patients. scores of people remain inside the building — but there is said to be no power and not enough staff to look after them. the israeli military says it has killed about 20 hamas fighters and seized numerous weapons in the area of the hospital. the conflict in gaza has been a key topic at the munich security conference. our chief international correspondent, lyse doucet spoke to the prime minister of the palestinian authority — mohammad shtayyeh — about the situation on the ground. for us, revitalisation of the palestinian authority, it means one thing. it means allowing us to function. how can you function at a time when israel is deducting two thirds of our revenues? how can you function at a time when you have 700 checkpoints? how can you function when you have 755,000 settlers, all of them with machine guns? how can you function when all the palestinian territories are reoccupied by the army, the israeli army, and settlers are incursion into cities, refugee camps and villages? so the issue of revitalisation of the palestinian authority is to create a conducive environment

for us to function. this is the most important thing. otherwise, we will be in a difficult situation. many are saying the united states must do more to put pressure on its ally, israel, to bring the war to the end. do you think america is doing enough? no. i don't think that america is doing enough. i think america can do more, because it's very simple. you can exert every pressure by not giving aid, by not giving weapons and by exerting serious pressure. we know... do you think they would ever do that? we know from james baker in 1991, when yitzhak shamir continued his settlement programme. james baker told him, if you continue to do so, we will deduct every money you spend from american aid to israel. we haven't heard this language from washington yet, and that is the language that israel understands. you cannot continue, you cannot say that we want israel to stop settlements. israel is not listening

and you are not doing anything. so, therefore, quiet diplomacy is not enough. the united states has to make its voice loud and clear for the israelis to listen, and only the united states that can deliver, and the british government as well has a lot to say on this. and finally, many are leaving here saying that the gaps in the talks to bring about a truce, to lead to a ceasefire, the gaps are really, really wide. they are very wide. we are trying to bridge the gaps. we have been talking to qatar, to egypt, with all other players. we need this situation to end. it's very catastrophic. but as i said, the ball is in the hands of the israelis and the ball is in the court of... and hamas. and hamas to a certain extent, i think it is israel who is occupying our territory and it is israel who should really make the statement to regenerate hope in the hearts and the minds of every palestinian people. what israel is doing now is the contrary, israel is now acting in the mood of revenge and israel acts as if they are a wounded bull.

they want to kill whoever stands in front of them. that is not how you make peace. israel needs to move from a security approach to a political approach. the security approach has not been working. israel tried everything that has to do with security. now we need a serious paradigm shift in order for us to really end this conflict once and for all. they say they wouldn't have done the war if hamas hadn't attacked, if there hadn't been october the 7th. well, you know that the palestinian—israel conflict didn't start in october 7th. but what happened on october 7th changed israel. by all means, we understand that. but also, it did change the whole world. and now everybody feels that there is a serious need to end this conflict. the palestinian authority prime minister there. more than 400 people have been arrested across russia for laying tributes to alexei navalny, president putin's most prominent political opponent, who died suddenly in a jail in the arctic on friday. navalny�*s team believes the opposition leader was murdered but that's been rejected by russia's foreign ministry. his family has accused authorities of trying to cover their tracks by refusing to hand over his body.

mr navalny�*s death has sparked international condemnation with memorials and vigils held in a number of countries. the us and british ambassadors to moscow have laid flowers too. our eastern europe correspondent, sarah rainsford has this report. ever since the death of alexei navalny, people have of alexei navalny, russians have been leaving tributes. this woman says navalny fought for russia to be free. describing him as a hero. a democracy not a dictatorship. they are strong words in a country that does this when people come to lay flowers.

since navalny died, several hundred people have been arrested across the country. the kremlin does not want sorrow to lead into anger and into mass protest. in moscow, one memorial has now been fenced off, access restricted. and in saint petersburg, men clear away the flowers so the scale of support for navalny is not obvious. but each time there are more people and fresh tributes. these are the last known images of navalny on a video link from prison to a court. his cheerfulness is an act of defiance in itself. he died the next day, we still don't know the cause. his mother travelled to the arctic region to get her son's body and to find answers. so far, she has neither. navalny�*s team are accusing the authorities are hiding something. they have reason for suspicion,

three years ago, the politician was poisoned with a nerve agent. the risks of returning to russia after that were always clear. and that is true for others who have spoken out as well, also poisoned and arrested, this man for condemning the war on ukraine. his wife says the death of alexei navalny underlines the immense cost of dissent. i navalny underlines the immense cost of dissent. . , navalny underlines the immense cost of dissent. ., , ., , ., of dissent. i was horrified, but not surprised- — because the use of political assassination as a method of dealing with opponents has been there for, well, the entire rule of vladimir putin. navalny was putin's loudest challenger. his sudden death leaves many questions unanswered. and a family and followers left to agree. this evening his wife posted a single

image. the caption reads, i love you. we can speak now to daniel roher, who is the director of the osar—winning "navalny" movie. welcome to the programme. what do you think navalny would have made of the events that are now occurring, up the events that are now occurring, up to and including his death? you spent a lot of time with him, you would have known what he would have thought. it is would have known what he would have thou:ht. , ., ., ~ ., ., would have known what he would have thouuht. , . ., ~' ., . . thought. it is hard to know what a man would _ thought. it is hard to know what a man would think. _ thought. it is hard to know what a man would think. if _ thought. it is hard to know what a man would think. if navalny - thought. it is hard to know what a man would think. if navalny were | man would think. if navalny were here today he would probably have a smile on his face and tell everyone to stop crying take a shot of vodka and get back to work. navalny is essentially a guy who is a man on a mission to install democracy in russia. democracy is fragile and it takes all of us as actresses as means to safeguard it. that takes all of us as actresses as means to safeguard it. that is a fascinating _ means to safeguard it. that is a fascinating thing _ means to safeguard it. that is a fascinating thing that _ means to safeguard it. that is a fascinating thing that comes - means to safeguard it. that is a . fascinating thing that comes across in your movie, he's a maverick, fearless. he never seems to express doubt. is that because that is what you choose to capture or isn't how he is? even the last shots we saw,

unclear. but i think solace is navalny designed an organisation for there to be continuity in the affect of his death. he loved life and he did not want to die, but he understood the possibility in lieu of that reality, he designed the organisation to be able to continue evenif organisation to be able to continue even if this tragedy was realised. so in that sphere, i know there is a well of talent in the russian opposition and i hope that they are galvanised and everyone finds common purpose and putin, the murderous thuggish tyrant who murdered my friend, i hope he gets what is coming to him sooner rather than later. , ., , ., later. during filming, we hear you asking navalny — later. during filming, we hear you asking navalny what _ later. during filming, we hear you asking navalny what his _ later. during filming, we hear you asking navalny what his message | asking navalny what his message would be to the russian people in the event of his death and listless listen in on what he said. my message for the situation _ in on what he said. my message for the situation when _ in on what he said. my message for the situation when i _ in on what he said. my message for the situation when i am _ in on what he said. my message for the situation when i am killed - in on what he said. my message for the situation when i am killed is - the situation when i am killed is very— the situation when i am killed is very simple. not give up. insert this one in _ very simple. not give up. insert this one in russian. _

a 42—year—old woman has been arrested on suspicion of murder and is now in police custody in hospital. they also said that three young children inside the house have been pronounced dead at the scene. the chief inspector in charge of this inquiry said it was a tragic and heartbreaking incident and sent her condolences. she also stressed, though, that this was an isolated incident and that there were no further risks to the community. that said, we are expecting an increased police presence here over the next few days. we have seen forensics behind me, we've seen officers go door—to—door, and that presents is expected to continue. we have had some local reaction, the mp and the mayor of bristol have also expressed their condolences. in the uk, the labour party is considering backing a motion by the scottish national party calling for

an immediate cease—fire in gaza. the shadow foreign secretary says the party will "scrutinise" the motion ahead of a vote in parliament on wednesday. it comes three months after 10 labour frontbench mps resigned to support a previous snp motion on the issue. labour leader sir keir starmer has faced criticism over his stance on the israel—gaza war — earlier he addressed the scottish labour conference, and called for a �*ceasefire that lasts�*. what we all want to see... ..a return of all the hostages taken on october 7th, an end to the killing of innocent palestinians, a huge scaling up of humanitarian relief and an end to the fighting. notjust for now... applause. an end to the fighting, notjust now, notjust for a pause, but permanently.

heavy rain across many north—western areas of scotland, down through northern ireland and into north wet england. and into north—west england. that band of rain fizzling out as it sinks southwards and eastwards. reaching the midlands by the time we get to tomorrow morning. this is how we start off the day tomorrow. temperatures are a little bit lower than they have been. still mild for the time of year. that band of rain continues to push further southwards and eastwards as we head through monday morning but it is fizzling out as it goes. just cloud, a few showers perhaps for the south—east of england and east anglia and then these will brighten up. for most of us it will stay dry through the day tomorrow for most of us with sunny spells. showers edging into western scotland and northern ireland by the end of the day. temperatures are just a little bit lower by a couple of degrees. some slightly fresher feeling air behind that weather front. some cooler conditions behind the next cold front that will be sinking again southwards and eastwards on tuesday, bringing some heavy rain across north—western scotland through northern ireland and again into northern england and potentially western wales

by the time we get into the afternoon. cooler feeling conditions behind. a band of showers moving into western scotland. ahead of the front, it's still very mild, 13, 1a celsius with a south—westerly wind and possibly some brighter skies. but we will see some heavy rain as we head through wednesday. strong, gusty south—westerly winds. and another called front introducing some chillier conditions and another cold front introducing some chillier conditions as we head into thursday. some of the showers could be wintry over higher ground, particularly across scotland, as we head through the end of the week. bye— bye.
