hello, i'm lucy grey. welcome to the programme. we begin in the middle east. in qatar, new talks are under way to try to reach a ceasefire in gaza and the release of hostages. both israel and the united states have sent negotiators. hamas says it won't directly join the negotiations. it accuses israel's prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, of adding new conditions to earlier proposals, but qatari mediators are expected to relay messages to hamas, who already have a presence in doha. in the last few minutes, the uk foreign secretary, david lammy, has said, "we are at a crucial moment for global stability," and the uk will "continue to use every diplomatic lever to bring about a ceasefire in gaza". in gaza, the number of people killed in the war has now passed 40,000, according to the hamas—run health ministry there. israel has questioned the figures,

which do not specify how many fighters are among those killed. but israel is not allowing internationaljournalists from media organisations, including the bbc, independent access to gaza, and the un has found the figures from gaza in previous conflicts reliable. hamas fighters stormed into southern israel on october the 7th, killing about 1200 people and kidnapping 251 others. barbara plett usher reports now, and a warning — you may find some details upsetting. it took ali two months to dig his family out of the wreckage of their home. he was the only one who survived the strike. translation: i could see my father i under the rubble, but i could not. extract him at first because he was under two columns of cement and the ceiling would have collapsed. he decomposed in front of my eyes. my mother's body was inside the house, but when i tried to go to see her, i felt smothered and had to leave. he's looked after now

by his grandfather in a shelter for orphans and widows. carrying on with the task of living. his mother, father, brother and two sisters are among the 40,000 reported killed in the gaza war. the number is overwhelming. each loss is a raw and individual grief, experienced again and again in places that are supposed to be safe. israel says it hits civilian infrastructure because hamas is operating there. hamas says it isn't. the international community condemns civilian deaths and the killing goes on. more than ten months of war have turned gaza into a destruction zone, displaced most of its people. many are sick and hungry. in the southern city of khan younis, they've been forced to flee

a continually shifting front line. "we are tired of this life," she says. "death is better than this." death is a constant presence. sami kawar still has his family and whatever else he could carry with him, but this graveyard was the only space he could find in a shrinking humanitarian zone. translation: we have fled from dying to be among the dead, _ meaning we are the living dead. the truth is no—one really knows what to say. back at the shelter, the orphans have been given another chance at life. how much of a chance, though? without at least a ceasefire, the future looks as dangerous as the present. barbara plett usher, bbc news, jerusalem. with me is our chief international correspondent lyse doucet. some strong words we were just hearing there from the uk foreign secretary saying that these talks

are a crucial moment for global stability, and you were just hearing there may be of is imminent. media so far saying — there may be of is imminent. media so far saying that _ there may be of is imminent. media so far saying that david _ there may be of is imminent. media so far saying that david lammy - there may be of is imminent. media so far saying that david lammy and | so far saying that david lammy and his french counterpart are both going to make a trip to the middle east to do everything possible, in this case to be seen to be doing everything possible to try to avert an all out war. this has been a black cloud hanging over this gaza war almost since the very beginning, that it could so quickly spread into a regionalfire. tensions have been burning in these last ten months, but right now the worry is that if these talks, cease—fire talks which is got under way again in doha, don't succeed, then a ron and hezbollah and their other allies could retell for those back—to—back assassinations in latejuly

could retell for those back—to—back assassinations in late july that both iran and hezbollah said they would retaliate for. so if britain, france and germany a statement last week urging the iranians not to retaliate, the americans have urged them not to retaliate so we understand hezbollah has stopped to watch the talks so we hope the talks succeed. most of all for the people in gaza and the hostages. irate succeed. most of all for the people in gaza and the hostages.- in gaza and the hostages. we had that fi . ure in gaza and the hostages. we had that figure of _ in gaza and the hostages. we had that figure of 40,000 _ in gaza and the hostages. we had that figure of 40,000 from - in gaza and the hostages. we had that figure of 40,000 from the i that figure of 40,000 from the health ministry in gaza, i was talking earlier about the health minister in israel about these talks if they would come to anything and he just if they would come to anything and hejust said if they would come to anything and he just said they want total surrender from he just said they want total surrenderfrom hamas. there is this issue we have the government of israel saying they want this total surrender and we have the international community pressing so hard for some sort of development here. and yet we have felt close before was a bit felt like negotiations were getting somewhere before it and they did not. and so

theissueis before it and they did not. and so the issue is where are they going to go? where is the end going to come from? {iii go? where is the end going to come from? , ., ., ., ~ from? of the first on the talks take place against _ from? of the first on the talks take place against the _ from? of the first on the talks take place against the back _ from? of the first on the talks take place against the back rent - from? of the first on the talks take place against the back rent a - place against the back rent a mediator saying we are almost there. viewers may remember in may thatjoe biden�*s suddenly stood up is said israel has proposed a plan and the plan looks like a good plan, and then out of the blue hamas exited it. this suddenly it all unraveled and that is part of the problem this time. hamas says we took that plan and make, but prime minister netanyahu of israel has changed the plant. and he is saying i did not change the plan, ijust make clarifications, but it is clear that the plan that has been on the table which introduced new elements have not been a suitable to hamas, and thatis not been a suitable to hamas, and that is why they are not saying or taking part directly or never were at the table but even indirectly they are not taking part this time, at least so far. pare they are not taking part this time, at least so far.— at least so far. are you able to ex - lain at least so far. are you able to expiain what — at least so far. are you able to explain what was _ at least so far. are you able to explain what was in _ at least so far. are you able to i explain what was in the proposed deal and do you know what the

alleged changes from netanyahu were? for example, let me give you two examples, the plan not published in full but we know from it, for example, the plan was to have what is a key demand of hamas and indeed what many of the arab states have been demanding is that israel must pull its forces completely out of the gaza strip. now israel is saying we have to remain a law the southern border with egypt, what's called the philadelphia court or because they see it as the main smuggling route for hamas and hamas is saying you were changing it. we cannot accept that. another thing if the prisoners. israel is saying we want a veto over the prisoners and even more we want to be able to say that some of the high—profile prisoners we might release, they have to leave the country, leave the region, which again hamas if that is not actionable. and thirdly, hamas wants people of god to be able to return to their homes in the north. israel

had said that that will be possible, but that there would but no one could return the weapons and they said there had to be a screening process and hamas says no screening process. so it's details like that that seemed to be the gaps, and then of course just this wide ocean of distrust between them. so the question is will prime minister netanyahu, who was coming under pressure from his key ally the us and from european countries, as well as from his own army chiefs in israel who were not publicly say we have done what we can militarily, let's prioritise bringing the hostages home, even within his own to team and on the other side you have the new hard—line leader of hamas yahya sinwar, to my believed to be in a bunker somewhere and regarded by israel to be the mastermind of the october the 7th attacks and people wondering does he want to do a deal? so much as a

statement most of all the long—suffering people in gaza with the numbers not even beginning to tell the story and the families of hostages who fear with every extra hour it increases the risk of their loved ones will be killed.- hour it increases the risk of their loved ones will be killed. thank you so much, international— loved ones will be killed. thank you so much, international chief- so much, international chief correspondent there. let's speak to hamish young, senior emergency coordinator for unicef in gaza. he is in al mawasi in gaza. i want to talk about your concrete hope about anything coming from these latest ones. we hope about anything coming from these latest ones.— hope about anything coming from these latest ones. we have to have ho e, these latest ones. we have to have hape. don't — these latest ones. we have to have hape. don't we? — these latest ones. we have to have hope, don't we? 40,000 _ these latest ones. we have to have hope, don't we? 40,000 people, | hope, don't we? 40,000 people, 41,000 _ hope, don't we? 40,000 people, 41,000 if— hope, don't we? 40,000 people, 41,000 if you count the 7th of october— 41,000 if you count the 7th of october is _ 41,000 if you count the 7th of october isjust a 41,000 if you count the 7th of october is just a ridiculous leap death_ october is just a ridiculous leap death toll. so we have to have hopes that these _ death toll. so we have to have hopes that these talks succeed. i was here in november, the end of november it

resumed, debating whether there may be a cease—fire. we will keep an eye on what is going on in those talks but there is light pictures coming to us from tel aviv with speeches thereby representatives of the hostages families. let's bring you some breaking news — arrests have been made in connection with the death of matthew perry. that's according to two sources speaking to our us partner cbs. the friends actor was found in a hot tub at his home in la in october last year having been under the influence of the drug ketamine. he had struggled with addiction to alcohol and drugs during his career, but at the time of his death had been clean for over a year, according to medical reports. our north america correspondent peter bowes outlined the latest developments. matthew perry, as you've been saying, he died last year. his body was found in the hot tub at his home here

in los angeles, and at the time, the coroner's report concluded that he had died from the acute effects of ketamine, which is a drug that is used to treat depression and anxiety it is an anaesthetic, and we understand from reports that he had been receiving small doses of that drug as infusions. but the question mark was over the levels of the drug in his body, and we learned earlier this year that there was an investigation involving federal authorities, the los angeles police department, looking into where he could've got those drugs from, who could've supplied him with those drugs and the method of supply, a huge investigation. and we are indeed now hearing reports from us media that at least one person has been arrested. we don't have any further details on that, although there will be a news conference by the authorities here in los angeles in the next few hours when we expect to learn much more.

we will bring you that when it happens. challenger 2 tanks, supplied by the uk to ukrainian forces, have been used in their cross—border incursion into russia, a source has told the bbc. kyiv says it's expanding its military operation in the kursk region. a top commander has said the country's troops have advanced a further 1.5 kilometres in the past 24 hours. he said they now control 1150 square kilometres of russian territory and have seized 82 settlements, but russia insists they are pushing back. in the last hour, i spoke with our defence correspondent jonathan beale. i asked him about the significance of uk—made tanks being used in this incursion. it's important to get a sense of proportion. we gave them 14 challenger 2 tanks, and germany, the us gave many more tanks than we did. but you know, it was an important move, because at the time there were few western countries willing to give modern main battle tanks to ukraine

because of the threats from russia. but that was a redline that was crossed. it was specifically crossed for last year's offensive, which was to retake ukrainian territory captured by the russians, but, of course, that offensive was stalled. what wasn't envisaged at the time, that these would be used inside russia. i mean, challenger tanks were first designed in the cold war for, you know, fighting soviet armour on the plains of europe, but nobody envisaged that british—made challenger 2 tanks would be inside russia, and they are. we don't know how many they are. the mod are not saying specifically, but i've had it confirmed from a source they are there... and they're saying they're fine with it, though, the mod, aren't they? well, so i think this is in line with what other countries have done. so all those countries, and as i said — the uk was one of the first, but it wasn't the biggest, the largest supplier of armour to the ukrainian forces. that's the us, that's germany, that's poland, that's other countries. but i think they have all said

that this is part of ukraine's right to self—defence, and therefore once they give that equipment, it is up to ukraine how they use it. now, there is one caveat on that, and that caveat is long—range missiles. our defence correspondent there. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news.

taylor swift returns to london's wembley stadium tonight for the final concerts of the european leg of her eras tour. she will be playing five final shows from tonight, with the excitement already ramping up at wembley. security will be tight after her shows in vienna last week were cancelled following the arrest of three teenagers for allegedly planning an attack. we can cross live to wembley and our correspondent chi chi izundu. soaking up the atmosphere. they have

bring big bags, small bags are fine but they will be checked. also if you plan to collect your friendship leaflets, of which there are a lot, do not bring a metal carabiner had to collect them. make sure that is something plastic that you can take away with you. so, yes, security has been wrapped up and if you can see, there are a lot of taylor swift fans here. . , , there are a lot of taylor swift fans here. ., , , ., ., ., here. yeah, they been waiting a long time for this — here. yeah, they been waiting a long time for this and _ here. yeah, they been waiting a long time for this and booked _ here. yeah, they been waiting a long time for this and booked the - here. yeah, they been waiting a long time for this and booked the tickets. time for this and booked the tickets so long ago and they cost so much money, don't they, to get to this event. , ,., ~ ., money, don't they, to get to this event. , ., ., event. indeed. i spoke to one american _ event. indeed. i spoke to one american family _ event. indeed. i spoke to one american family of— event. indeed. i spoke to one american family of four. - event. indeed. i spoke to one american family of four. they event. indeed. i spoke to one - american family of four. they spent £400 each on their tickets, so the total for just £400 each on their tickets, so the total forjust a £400 each on their tickets, so the total for just a tickets £400 each on their tickets, so the total forjust a tickets including the fees they had to pay was £2000. they came over on vacation because as a dad told me a ticket in america, one alone would've cost them 2000 so it was much cheaper.

following an outbreak in the democratic republic of congo that has since spread to other countries. mpox, which was previously known as monkeypox, is transmitted through close contact, such as sex, skin—to—skin contact and talking or breathing close to another person. let's speak to the bbc�*s health correspondent dominic hughes. can he tell us about this mpox clade one they are describing it as? 50. one they are describing it as? so, eah, the one they are describing it as? srr, yeah, the description one they are describing it as? sc, yeah, the description of one they are describing it as? sti, yeah, the description of clades is a new word really for everyone to get there answer rep. it's what we would have understood during the covid—19 years as a variant. essentially a new variant. now that outbreak you were talking about in 2022 that saw more than 3000 cases identified in the uk in the end, that was known as clade two so a different type of variant. this one seems to be a bit more deadly. it seems to be claiming

more deadly. it seems to be claiming more lives, so amongst adults they think it claims maybe one life in 20 but amongst children, up to one in ten so it is having a pretty devastating effect. the vast majority of those deaths so far and cases in fact have been in the democratic republic of congo, where mpox has been endemic for many years now, for decades will stop but there is this concern because the disease has been spotted in 15 other african countries and then now as we have heard of the last half hour or so, sweden's health ministry have confirmed they now have a case of this clade one, this variant that is a variant that has been seen in africa and these other african countries. and in africa, is an identified in both egypt and south africa, sogoing wright from southern africa, sogoing wright from southern africa to northern africa and that is a real concern i think for world health organization officials and also public health officials within those african countries as well.

just briefly, what have the swedish authorities said about their ability to deal with this? timer;t authorities said about their ability to deal with this?— to deal with this? they said they have measures _ to deal with this? they said they have measures in _ to deal with this? they said they have measures in place - to deal with this? they said they have measures in place which i to deal with this? they said they l have measures in place which you would expect, the sort of surveillance and monitoring and testing. i think public health officials right across the world now given what the world health organization have said are ramping up organization have said are ramping up their surveillance in their monitoring. here in the uk, we have heard from the uk health security agency who say there are no cases in the uk at the moment, but they are prepared and are monitoring and surveilling. prepared and are monitoring and surveillinu. prepared and are monitoring and surveilling— surveilling. 0k, thank you for talkin: surveilling. 0k, thank you for talking to _ surveilling. 0k, thank you for talking to us _ surveilling. 0k, thank you for talking to us about _ surveilling. 0k, thank you for talking to us about it, - surveilling. 0k, thank you for i talking to us about it, appreciate it. play more on this on the bbc news website. dominate use there, or health correspondent on the news that sweden has this first case of clade one, if he was saying the term for a new variant of mpox and with the first case outside of africa and as he was saying, 15 countries inside africa have seen cases of mpox, used to be called monkeypox. lean more to come on that seducing

with us here on abc news if you want to get in touch with can reach me on social media. don't go away. hello there. although skies did brighten up across scotland, northern ireland later in the day, it was a pretty soggy one for most, with outbreaks of rain and a strong south—westerly breeze. tomorrow's looking better, more sunshine around, and it'll feel slightly cooler and fresher, certainly across northern areas. those weather fronts continuing to move southwards and eastwards, then, through the overnight period. some spots of rain on it, maybe the odd heavier burst, but generally it will be much weaker than what we had earlier in the day across northern and western areas. a few blustery showers across the north—west of the uk. clear skies for most mean a cooler, fresher night to come, but still quite warm and muggy in the far south—east. now, for tomorrow, then, we've got a ridge of high pressure building in behind this weather front, so plenty of sunshine around. a bit of a chilly start out there, the odd mist patch.

it stays quite blustery through the day across scotland, northern ireland. one or two showers pushing in certainly western scotland, but dry elsewhere. and we'll see the clouds clear from the south—east. temperatures will reach around the mid 20s in the south. further north, high teens, maybe low 20s and lower humidity so it'll feel a bit more comfortable, certainly across southern areas. now, through friday night, we hold onto the breeze, further blustery showers across western scotland, northern ireland. it's going to be a chillier night to come for all areas, ranging from around 7—11 degrees. now, for the weekend, it's looking pretty good. we're in between weather systems both saturday and sunday, so a lot of dry weather around. maybe the odd shower for the north—west corner of the uk closer to this area of low pressure, but higher pressure, the azores high in the south, will keep much of england and wales dry with light winds. a lot of sunshine around. could see the fairweather cloud tending to bubble up into the afternoon. like i mentioned, more of a breeze. the odd shower for western scotland, but i think the vast majority will stay dry. and temperatures range from around high teens in the north, mid—20s in the south,

pretty much where we should be for the time of year. sunday, we see this area of low pressure perhaps influence the weather a bit more across the north of the uk, so a greater chance of seeing showers or longer spells of rain in the north—west of scotland. the odd shower, i think, for northern ireland, western england, western wales. otherwise, again, the vast majority will stay dry with plenty of sunshine. temperatures range from 18—24 degrees. as we head into next week, it does start to turn more unsettled again, especially across northern and western areas. could see some pretty heavy rain at times. better chance of staying drier, warmer and sunnier across the south—east. take care.

this is bbc news — the headlines. ceasefire talks on the war in gaza have resumed in qatar, as the palestinian death toll passes 40,000 — according to the hamas—run health ministry. a 15—year—old boy has been charged in connection to the recent nationwide riots. five, four, three, two, one! thousands of students across england, wales and northen ireland receive their exam results, with 80% securing their first—choice university place. sweden's public health agency

says it has recorded the first case of a contagious new variant of mpox outside the african continent. hello from the bbc sport centre. i'm gavin ramjuan. just a day to wait until the premier league kicks off — tottenham have suspended yves bissouma for their premier league game at leicester city on monday, after footage showed the midfielder inhaling laughing gas. spurs have made the move despite the 27—year—old apologising for a "severe lack ofjudgment", having posted a video of himself on social media on saturday which showed him inhaling from a balloon. he has responsibilities, responsibility to his club, to his team—mates, to our supporters, everyone associated with the club. he's failed in those duties so there has to be sanctions for that. he won't be available for monday. we've suspended him from the game on monday, beyond that, there's also some trust building

that needs to happen between biss
