this is bbc news, the headlines. the us secretary of state, antony blinken, is on his way to israel in his latest effort to push for a ceasefire and hostage release deal in gaza. the us and israel have said that there's been positive progress since talks resumed in qatar last week. but hamas has dismissed the optimism as an illusion. the ukrainian military has released a video, which it says shows the destruction of another key bridge inside the kursk region of russia. air force commander mykola oleshchuck released the footage, saying russia was "minus one more bridge" and that strikes were depriving russia of logisitical capabilities. the french actor alain delon, once described as the most beautiful man in cinema, has died at the age of 88. delon was one of the biggest stars in french film in the 1960s and 70s.

let's return to the news that the home office says it will include extreme misogyny among types of extremism which the government should take steps to tackle. it's started a rapid review to address gaps in the current system and will develop plans to "map and monitor" extremist trends, both on and offline. the home secretary yvette cooper said that "for too long" governments had "failed to address" the issue. let's speak to jamie klingler, co—founder of reclaim these streets, a group set up following the murder of sarah everard in south london in march 2021. welcome, thank you very much for being with us. what do you make of the government having a review of extremism, and potentially including online misogyny in that? it’s a online misogyny in that? it's a ureat online misogyny in that? it's a great step _ online misogyny in that? it's a great step in _ online misogyny in that? it's a great step in the _ online misogyny in that? it's a great step in the right - online misogyny in that? it's a great step in the right direction. if youte — great step in the right direction. if you're not recognising a problem you are _ if you're not recognising a problem you are not — if you're not recognising a problem you are not fixing it, and for so

optimism as an illusion. meanwhile, there have been more israeli air strikes in gaza and israel also said it had struck targets inside neighbouring lebanon. the us feels the stakes are so high with the threat of an all out regional conflict that wider peace is essential. that's according to our middle east correspondent, sebastian usher. let's take a listen. i think we have got three messages coming out in a way from the us, very strong, urgent, very much pushing the ceasefire negotiations. they have broken down a number of times before. but i think the us feels the stakes are so high this time with the threat of a regional all—out conflict potentially erupting after the killing of the hamas political leader in iran and the killing of a top hezbollah military commander, that the ceasefire is needed, there is talk from us officials

that they want this side and signed and sealed by the end of the week. from israel we have heard some positive indications but others, not so much. what the us essentially presented in two days of talks which took place in qatar was an attempt to bridge these long outstanding differences between israel and hamas. israel has said that there has been progress made on that, but i don't think there is a full commitment yet to this modification. and that is partly to do with two potential conditions. one is the philadelphia corridor which runs right on the southern border between egypt and gaza that israel essentially does not want to hand that over to the palestinians, it wants to maintain some kind of control over that, because that is where they believe

hamas weapons can come in, and the group would be able to restore its ability potentially in a military sense if that were to be closed up. and the other which has been a big obstacle for a long time is over allowing all palestinians to go back to the north of gaza. the israeli concern about that is that among them, there may be hamas fighters. so that is still being discussed. from the hamas perspective, they have essentially said officials that they agreed that do a deal that was outlined a couple of months ago, the president biden deal with three phases, and they say that israel, the government has put in extra conditions since then. and they do not accept the new conditions, they want, as far as what they are saying, they want to go back to exactly as they believe the deal was back then. there is still a lot that

needs to be ironed out, we have antony blinken coming to israel, to the region, his tenth visit since october seven, he will be pushing very hard in his talks with the israeli prime minister and leaders and presumably also with palestinian officials to get this deal done. research by a uk think tank suggests that, contrary to popular perception, older people are the least lonely age group in the country. four in ten elderly people say they sometimes feel lonely. but the figure jumps to seven out of ten when under 25s are questioned. the researchers say the elderly are much more likely to socialise and volunteer. josh nicholson from the centre for socialjustice wrote the study, and told me a little more about it. the centre for socialjustice polled a representative sample, about 2000 adults from across the uk, we also conducted a major analysis of a survey called understanding

society which contains tens of thousands of households. this is research we did in partnership with grassroot charities across the uk and it came out of the study that older people are the least lonely group in society. it shatters the stereotype that older people are the most lonely. and it's actually young people, 75% of young people say they feel lonely at least some of the time. that's an astonishing number, if you go to a place where young people are, only three out of ten of them are not feeling lonely. they are major problems that the government needs to get a handle on. why are so many young people feeling lonely, and do you think it has changed over the years? it has changed over the years. one of the most significant changes to occur for younger people is a decline in the perceived strength of family relationships. so another organisation, we have worked with and spoken to, had found that over the last 20 years, the decline in family relationships, the strength

of family relationships has caused a decline in well—being and a rise in loneliness in young people. and lonely nation parts to which we publish today, and lonely nation part 2 which we publish today, which specifically looks at older people, finds there is lots to learn from all the people, they are more likely to see extended members of family, they are more engaged in the community and volunteer more, this all protects against loneliness. there is lots we can learn from our older friends in our community. what is that decline in family relations down to? i think there has been significant changes, one of the most significant is family breakdown. the uk has some of the most unstable family structures in europe, and this is actually ignored in loneliness research, it's not really looked at very often. the report is the second part in our series, earlier in the year we published a report specifically arguing that strengthening family needs to be at the heart of a new refreshed loneliness strategy.

that is really the overarching call of these four reports which will be producing this year, government needs to refresh its loneliness strategy, it's a rising issue in society, we have not heard anything about it yet from the new government but it needs to be tackled. what about social media, what part if any does that play? is there too much spent time online and not enough in the real world by young people? there is evidence that young people are spending a lot more time on social media and smartphones, and that could be causing a rise in loneliness because they are lacking those in—person communities. interestingly enough, in our research, we found that in older people, the opposite is taking place. older people, being on a smartphone, using a smartphone is associated with being less lonely. so in older people, the causes of loneliness might be very different to young people which requires a lot more work by government to address this. we are calling for a new digital

inclusion strategy, and a digital champions fund which will support charities that are getting older people online, teaching them those skills that ice having a massive effect on the ability to form relationships in a digital world. really interesting, thank you for being with us, josh. as the premier league kicks off for the season, this week we've heard from some of the teams making new appearances. ipswich town haven't been in the league for 22 years. southampton fc were relegated to the championship before fighting their way back to the top. but what about the team who have won the premier league title four years in a row? do they think they can do it again? we are of course talking about manchester city. let's speak to manchester city fan rachel herdson. i'm sure the team think they can do it again, what about you, are they unstoppable now? it it again, what about you, are they unstoppable now?— it again, what about you, are they unstoppable now? it seems that way, doesnt unstoppable now? it seems that way, doesn't it. with _ unstoppable now? it seems that way, doesn't it. with pep _ unstoppable now? it seems that way, doesn't it. with pep at _ unstoppable now? it seems that way, doesn't it. with pep at the _ unstoppable now? it seems that way, doesn't it. with pep at the helm, - doesn't it. with pep at the helm, anything is possible. for in a row

variety of names on it. as you mentioned there, playrix are at the top, they are known for mobile games like garden skates and townships. but there are a big variety of people like ksi, who started off like streaming games like fifa on youtube that has gone on to become a boxer and singer. we have got independent game makers on the list as well. it is a real mix of creative talent across the section of what video games offer. how do they actually make their money, is it from sponsorship? again, it depends. for example playrix use a format of video games where they are free to download, but there will be advertising in the game, micro—transactions within the game as well. people like ksi, again, it is sponsorship, it does depend on which person you are looking at. an there are youtubers on this list? yes, ksi, pewdiepie is another example, who started out taking making youtube videos on minecraft. they have grown in popularity on social media and youtube,

instagram, they get sponsorship, they rack up views and they have been able to project themselves into a variety of different careers off the back of video games. so for any gamers watching or frustrated parents of gamers concerned their children are specnding too much time online, how do you make money in gaming? the first place is picking up a controller, knowing your audience as well, knowing which platforms to use, youtube, twitch. esports is quite important here as well, because that is a whole different industry. many young gamers are turning to esports as a way of competing. if you are good at playing fortnite, why not compete against other people? it's about building an audience and a following and if you are lucky enough you might get a sponsorship deal or a professional team picking you up, you have got to get the games

and build and connect with the audience watching you. who knows, you might end up a millionaire. the predicted rise in sea levels due to global warming has focused attention on measures that can be taken to protect coastlines. sand dunes play a key role in providing a natural line of defence, but many are threatened. yet a project in the north of england to secure them using christmas trees is showing promising results. our reporterjudy hobson has been to find out more. these dunes once stretched for miles inland, but not any more. they had to make way for housing and roads. and now just 20% of these lancashire dunes remain. sand dunes are hugely important for many different reasons. first and foremost, they act as a wonderful soft sea defence. so in years gone by, you know, there's lots of people that would have put hard sea defences in through sea walls. but i think we're finally realising that actually nature based solutions play a huge role in coastal defence now.

and sand dunes and salt marsh act as a buffer between the land and the sea. removing sand dunes has left towns along the coast here vulnerable to flooding. in recent years, though, there's been a huge effort to widen the dunes once again. this whole area has widened by up to 100m. hopefully we can go out another ten to 20m. the work that we're doing is pushing mean high water back. planting marram grass helps to bind the sand together, but over the years, volunteers have also placed christmas trees here to make the dunes even more secure. it's very effective, so we've been using it since 2013. we were definitely not the first sand dunes project to use christmas trees, but i think we are one of the longest standing now and it's worked extremely well. so much so that it's acted as a case study for lots of other dune projects around the uk. sand dunes also provide a rare habitat. the land is owned by the local councils, who recently worked with conservation groups to introduce these creatures. sand lizards, i love sand lizards. they weren't playing

ball today though. this footage was filmed by bbc springwatch. so we released them over four years, 412 in total, and myjob now is to monitor that population, to see where they're spreading, how many we've got and if they're breeding. we've seen over 70 this year, which is really good. previous years we've seen about 50, 40—50. so as we had the right habitat here, it was the perfect opportunity to get them out here. we can carry on building the dunes out towards the sea. eventually we'll hit mean high tide where we'll lose more dunes than we're making. and that'll be the point where we stop. the fylde sand dunes project is currently being funded by the environment agency until 2027, but it's hoped this essential project will be able to continue for many more years after that. there are hopes one of england's most endangered birds can make a comeback, after being reintroduced to the fenlands of norfolk. the corncrake is a small, secretive bird known for its distinctive call which it sings from dusk until dawn. conservationists say at least nine

calling males were heard this year, up from only three in 2021. globally the bird's population is threatened in parts of its range across europe and asia. but in the uk it is on the so—called red—list as a species of most concern. our reporter debbie tubby has been out to try and spot one. the corncrake, with its distinctive call, was almost extinct in england in the 1960s. now it's starting to thrive in a small pocket of east anglia, thanks to what's thought to be the only breeding programme of its kind in the world. so these are the corncrake pens. tucked away in these aviaries are two week old chicks that arrived this morning. so newest arrivals are in these pens on the right hand side over here. we've got some that are slightly older further down the pen as well. they've been bred in captivity at pensthorpe, then hidden here away from humans to keep them wild. when the chicks are 1a to 16 days old, in the wild, they'd naturally be kicked

out by mum. so we're extending that process by then, bringing them over here to us at welney and going in these pens, and we then look after them for about three to four weeks. and then once they're 35 to a0 days old, they'll get released out onto the washes on our reserve. it's the only population we've really got in the uk of any significance. so it's very, very important. three years ago, there were only just three male calls recorded on this site. now they've recorded nine, which probably means there isjust as many females as well. corncrakes only live for two years. they have limited flight. at the moment, 10% of the 100 birds released from welney each year manage the epic migration to sub—saharan africa and back, returning to the exact same site here at welney. where are we off to? so we are going to go to the washes, where we can see where the wild corncrakes end up. how often would you actually see one of these birds in the wild?

so they're really secretive. you might see them when they first arrive in april. but majority of the time you will never see a corncrake. you'll just hear their sort of distinctive sound. so no point looking for them really? if you see one, you're doing incredibly well, but unlikely. the birds love these wetlands, relying on the grassland to breed and raise their young. so i think the aim, you know, we'd love to hear 30 birds calling at night, which would be incredible. and if we get more than that, that'd be, you know, amazing. so yeah, really, really excited. but they're proud of what they've achieved here so far. restoring lost wildlife to the wetlands. debbie tubby, bbc news.

(pres)a week on from the spectacular olympics closing ceremony in paris, and 16 incredible days of sport, some of team gb�*s medal winners and biggest names have been celebrating their success with a huge homecoming party in manchester. just a warning, there is some flash photography injo currie's report from the red carpet. surely this is where keely has to put her foot down and where she goes away. in paris, keely hodgkinson's world turned golden. now team gb�*s back on home soil she is already targeting the 800m world record. i think for a number of years people thought it was impossible to get to. i welcome the change in technology and the science, which is helping us get nearer, and i don't see it as far away and i would love to get there. even for the athletes whose games didn't finish on the podium, this is an opportunity to reflect on and celebrate their olympicjourneys. i feel very fortunate to have had such an amazing amount of support and people celebrating my career as a whole. that's what i need to try to do, take my time and zoom out and reflect on this as a 24—year career.

so, yeah, i am very proud. while some athletes are saying goodbye to their olympic careers, others are saying hello to theirs. 19—year—old toby roberts' gold medal in climbing has put him and his sport in the spotlight. it's been absolutely wild. olympic champion still doesn't feel real. to be here with a gold around my neck is, like, truly surreal. the homecomings saw athletes and fans treated to a concert involving artists like rag'n'bone man and jess glynn. the olympics may be over but their impact is onlyjust getting started. jo currie, bbc news, manchester. congratulations to all of those of their shiny medals. and just before we go, a horse racing track in washington turned prehistoric. more than 200 people took part in races dressed in inflatable dinosaur costumes. it took place at the emerald downs race course in auburn.

quite the sprint but most of them made it! stay with us on bbc news. hello there. your sunday morning has started off on a rather pleasant note across many areas of the uk. we've got some dry weather with some sunny spells. a beautiful scene here in the shetland isles first thing this morning with some fair weather cumulus cloud in the sky, but there are a few showers moving their way through scotland at the moment. they'll continue to ease off into the afternoon, becoming few and far between. still a little bit breezy here. elsewhere, we've just got some sunny spells this afternoon and maximum temperatures getting up to about 2k, maybe 25 degrees towards the south east of england. further north about 17 or 18 celsius there in aberdeen. 1a degrees in the northern isles. now through this evening and tonight, there'll be some clear skies across england and wales, but the cloud will thicken in northern ireland and scotland, maybe some spots of rain arriving here late in the night. overnight temperatures down to about nine to 12 degrees. but in the countryside we could see temperatures down

into fairly low single figures. so it could be a bit of a fresh start to your monday morning. but as we go through monday, well, there'll be some changes because we've got this area of low pressure moving in, these weather fronts, that's set to bring in some wet and also windy weather throughout the day on monday. but across eastern areas, starting off with some sunshine. and you'll keep that sunshine for pretty much all day. elsewhere, the cloud increasing, rain moving in and that will turn quite heavy, especially for northern ireland, northwest scotland into the southwest of wales. windy conditions for all of us, but particularly so around this irish sea coast. some significant gusts through the day and top temperatures about 16 to 17 degrees. where you've got that cloud and the rain. further south and east still temperatures in the low 20s. that rain moves east overnight, so it'll be with you on tuesday morning across eastern areas. it will clear then we're going to see some showers coming in across western areas of scotland where again it's going to feel quite cool. 13—14 celsius here. there'll be some sunny spells in between the showers and again temperatures getting up into the low

to the mid 20s across eastern and southeastern areas. as we go through wednesday and thursday, this area of low pressure that's going to move in. it will make it a particularly windy day both on wednesday and thursday. unseasonably strong winds perhaps. with that, there'll be some outbreaks of rain coming in, especially across northern areas. further south a little bit drier with some sunny spells there in london. that's it from me. bye— bye.
