this is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. 20 people have been killed in israeli air strikes on gaza — after rockets were fired from the territory towards jerusalem. this follows clashes at one of the most sensitive sites injerusalem — israeli security forces fired stun grenades and rubber bullets during clashes with palestinians in which hundreds were injured. going after money, not mayhem. the cyber—gang that claims it shut down a us fuel pipeline explains their objectives — as president biden treads carefully over whether the kremlin was involved. the us tv network nbc says it won't broadcast the golden globe awards next year — because of worries over ethics and diversity.

israel has launched air strikes against militant targets in the gaza strip, after a barrage of rockets fired from the territory towards jerusalem. the hamas—run palestinian health ministry in gaza said twenty people had died in the strikes. injerusalem, the rocket fire caused israel's parliament to be evacuated as sirens sounded. earlier in the day, there were further clashes between israeli police and palestinians outside the al aqsa mosque injerusalem. more than 200 people were injured, as crowds threw stones and officers fired stun grenades in response. 0ur middle east correspondent yolande knell reports. 0ur blood is a cheap price forjerusalem, shouts this bereaved gaza grandmother.

while this woman, who lost four children, can only weep. the casualties, mounting, after israeli air strikes. translation: this evening, | jerusalem day, gaza's terrorist organisations crossed a red line and attacked us with rockets on the outskirts ofjerusalem. israel will react very forcefully. his response to a barrage of rockets fired by palestinian militants. israelis ran for cover when one reached jerusalem for the first time in years. while angry palestinians cheered. tensions were simmering on this holiday, when israelis mark the capture of eastjerusalem over 50 years ago. there is a party atmosphere, as israelis gather from across

the country to head down towards the western wall. for them, this is a big day of celebration. why am i here? because we are not going to let anyone win of when they are going to threaten us and try to stop us from being here and celebrate and dance. it is unbelievable. earlier, inside al—aqsa mosque, ramadan worship had quickly turned into violence. stun grenades and stones on this site, sacred to muslims and jews. here, there was frustration at damascus gate as police stopped jews from entering. tonight, the al—aqsa compound was literally ablaze. the israeli celebrations continued.

the fire was put out. what has flared up here may be harder to extinguish. the largest oil pipeline in the united states is still not functioning tonight after a cyberattack that's been described as the worst ever strike on us infrastructure. the biden administration has invoked emergency powers — in an effort to avoid fuel shortages. today the fbi said a hacking group, based in russia, was behind the attack. the pipeline in question supplies 14 east coast states, with nearly half of the petrol, diesel and airline fuel they consume. here's our security correspondent gordon corerra. colonial pipeline tonight still not pumping fuel across america, thanks to a cyber attack. four days after online hackers infiltrated systems, its pipeline is still shut down. a development serious enough to lead president biden to speak out this evening.

the department of energy is working directly with colonial to get the pipelines back online and operating at full capacity as quickly and safely as possible. the fbi also is engaged to assess and address this attack. colonial�*s 5500 mile pipeline carries nearly half of all the fuel for america east coast, from texas up to the north—east. emergency powers have allowed tankers to carry more to avoid shortages, including at airports. what's called ransomware has become a profitable enterprise. the hackers behind this incident even licensing their software for others to use. they are thought to be based in russia, but criminals, rather than part of a government. the group call themselves darkside. today they put out a statement saying, we are apolitical and do not participate in geopolitics. don't tie us to governments, they say.

our goal is to make money and not creating problems for society. it looks like they may be worried that this time, things have gone too far. what they have done is they have taken some data, encrypted it, and they are holding it for ransom. and they are saying if they don't get paid, they are going to leak it on the internet. and likely this company is going to be either needing to pay it off, or getting some sort of help from the us government. because the longer this goes on, you can start to see supplies eventually, not this week, but soon, start to get a bit tight and that is going to drive up energy prices. colonial say they hope to restore systems by the end of the week. but this is notjust about fuel supplies. hospitals, police forces, even local councils in the uk have all in the past been hit by a ransomware threat that is still growing. gordon corera, bbc news. i'm joined now from charleston in south carolina by meghan stifel — she's the executive director of the global cyber alliance,

in the city have been filling up. in public hospitals, around 75% are occupied. 0utside, families wait anxiously. a few weeks ago, it seems the health care system was about to be overwhelmed. since then, admissions have actually fallen but the danger of another, bigger spike after eid is very real. we do believe that there is some level of fear in the mind of the people, now, about the disease. seeing the horrific pictures from india and from elsewhere. obviously we have limited resources, we have a limited number of beds. if the number of cases overwhelm the availability of the hospital that's going to be a very, very painful situation. at this market last week, shoppers with masks, but out in force. the lead up to the eid festival is usually the busiest time of the year for retailers.

but now a partial lockdown is in place to try and reduce transmission rates. all nonessential businesses are closed until next week. the security forces are being called in to help enforce the rules. what happens over eid is going to be crucial in preventing the health care system from becoming overwhelmed. this is an important part of that, but an even bigger challenge is going to be whether families decide to have their own gatherings at home, and that's going to be even harder to control. the only way we can do that at the houses level, is to request an appeal to the people to behave more responsibly. obviously it's not possible for us to reach every house and household. a vaccination campaign is under way, but it is moving slowly with under 4 million doses administered so far. for now, all the focus is on avoiding a spike in the coming days. secunder kermani, bbc news, lahore.

us regulators say they will allow children as young as 12 to be vaccinated against the coronavirus. children aged between 12 and 15 will be offered the pfizer—biontech jab. it had previously been limited to those aged 16 and over, under emergency use rules. the us food and drug administration said it had carried out a thorough review of all available data before reaching the decision. most children who catch covid—i9 develop no symptons, or only mild ones, but can still spread the illness to others. stay with us on bbc news, still to come. efforts to save a whale stranded in the thames in south west london have failed — vets say it was too weak to survive on its own. i. i, nelson mandela, do hereby swear

20 people have been killed in israeli air strikes on gaza — after rockets were fired from the territory towards jerusalem. this follows clashes at one of the most sensitive sites injerusalem — between israeli security forces and palestinians. facebook has told bbc news that it will remove groups and pages from its platform that discourage the use of vaccines — regardless of whether the information can be verified as false or not. anti—vaccine conspiracy theories, particularly in relation to fighting the pandemic, have been widely circulated on social media. here's our specialist disinformation reporter marianna spring. anti—vaccine conspiracies have surged on social media, and everyday citizens have found themselves on the front line battling mistruths. that includes richard, a builder and trainee psychologist. he and a friend set up decoy anti—vaccine facebook groups to attract those believing conspiracies so they could help them. it was horrible, having to lie to begin with. you know, to get people in and to go with their agenda,

which would normally last about six weeks. and then, it would be stopped and we'd start questioning their narrative. they speak with people like brian, sending him accurate information after he was scared of taking a covid jab by misleading posts online. and what would life have looked like if you hadn't emerged from that rabbit hole? i might not be here. i went to some dark places, marianna. brian has now had his vaccine — but shouldn't it be facebook protecting him, rather than these volunteers? well, we certainly feel we've got a big responsibility— to ensure people are seeing the accurate information. i i as i said, over two billion people i have been directed to the who, nhs, and other health authorities around the world. _ we have adopted policies i where people are deliberately, deliberately inciting what's - called "vaccine discouragement". this means facebook is now removing groups and pages that put people off the vaccine, regardless of whether posts can be verified as false.

the policies of social media sites towards anti—vaccine content have come under increased scrutiny — and so has the government. but, more broadly, we know that there's a lot more to do. that's why we're introducing the 0nline safety bill. to really set out much more distinctly the duty of care that we want companies to take. the 0nline harms bill has repeatedly been delayed, and people have come to harm during that time. what's your response to that? it has been absolutely vital that we've taken the time to get this right. but while these policy debates rage on, everyday citizens continue their battle to help those who have fallen for conspiracies. marianna spring, bbc news. police in the uk have charged a man with the murder of community support officer. julia james was found dead in woodland near dover in kent last month — she'd suffered serious head injuries. 21—year—old callum wheeler will appear in court on tuesday.

it would usually be one of the biggest nights of the hollywood calendar. the golden globes ceremony has been rocked today after it was announced its broadcaster nbc has refused to screen the event. it comes after actress scarlettjohannson called for reform of the hollywood foreign press association which organises the awards ceremony — which is second only to the oscars in prestige. in a statement released tonight, nbc said... joining me now is dominic patten, the senior editor of deadline hollywood, which broke the story on nbc�*s decision to pull out of the awards. when the globes, next year, with

an extraordinary day at teddington lock in south—west london. the minke whale that had become stranded in the river thames was euthanised this evening. animal welfare experts say it was the only way to avoid any more unnecessary suffering. the whale was first seen late yesterday afternoon. it had become stranded on a concrete ramp on richmond lock, around two miles along the river. and a seven hour rescue operation began. during the night, the whale was towed away so that vets could try and carry out a health check. but it swam free from its harness. today, crowds gathered in teddington, along with the rspca and the rnli, after it was spotted again. for a while, it captivated onlookers as it swam by the lock gates. but at around 2:30pm this afternoon, it found itself unable to leave shallow waters by the riverbank. so the whale has become stranded yet

again in the shallow waters here and now all efforts are under way to try and set it free. those efforts unfortunately were not enough to free the whale. this evening many are wondering how on earth and animal typically found in the north atlantic and pacific oceans could have swum so far up the river thames. it could been ill, it could be sick, separated from its mum. wouldn't have been feeding. if it was weaned, then maybe it has had a problem actually feeding for itself. but something has happened. we won't know what that is, but the pathologist, the vat pathologist at london zoo will do an autopsy and they will work out the history of the animal. a captivating site for many over the past 2a hours, but sadly this minke whale was unable to return to the open sea. tim muffett, bbc news. have you ever gone on holiday and taken a bridge photo?

you know, the one of you standing in the middle of said bridge, holding onto the side, slightly awkwardly, a marker of your adventurous spirit and relaxed persona? if so — you will be thankful that that's as far as your dealings with a bridge on holiday goes. spare a thought for the man in china was left dangling — yes dangling — from a bridge after some of its glass panels blew away in high winds. he was visiting the 100 meter—high structure in the piyan mountain, in the north—east of the country, when the incident happened. this image — widely shared on social media — shows the man holding on for his life in the middle of the bridge, located in a scenic area near the city of longjing. we are pleased to report he managed to get back to safety himself with the help of on—site staff

and was not injured. hello. as yesterday today is shaping up hello. as yesterday today is shaping up to be a day of sunny spells and showers. the devil is going to be in the detail, though showers circling this large area of low pressure was still fairly tightly packed isobars today. but as the week goes on the low pressure remains with us just to meandering southwards but the winds become lighter, so the showers will become lighter, so the showers will become slow—moving. lengthier spells of rain pick up another area of low pressure within our main one. that means most of us will have better weather as we go through this week in the form of showers. you can see those rainfall totals are going to be going up. for the day ahead, as i say, it's a day of sunny spells and

showers. best of the sun will be this morning but as yesterday though showers are pretty intense at the go into the afternoon with thunderstorms around. and more persistent rain in the northwest of scotland, still further showers to come. not using away everywhere it will be a cool night but largely frost free. if you showers just other and western parts of england, possibly wales as well. any bits of low cloud first think will mentor of the way. plenty of sunshine to come as you see through the morning hours but want be long through that strong masonjenkins to work bubbling up the clavicle of the showers develop more widely. fairly brisk wind in southern and western areas. our rain slowed to clear but gradually over the northwest of scotland in a real rash of showers following behind with hail, thunder, squally wins. between 60 and i7 feeling quite pleasant but clearly in those downpours there could be quite a lot of localised standing water. and you they continue through the evening and overnight. temperatures falling

backin and overnight. temperatures falling back in single figures but largely frost free. the devil really will be in the detail this week with showers. might be that we have that more persistent rain hanging around in the northwest of scotland, possibly more meandering into western areas. possibly even with low pressure pushing into the southwest of england. what we do know is there will be heavy downpours around becoming more slow—moving by wednesday. still 50s and 60s between the showers and lengthy spells of rain and a pretty shower reap picture for the rest of the week.

israel has launched air strikes against what it says are militant targets in the gaza strip, after rockets were fired from the territory towards jerusalem. palestinian officials in gaza say 20 people, including children, have died in the strikes. the fbi says a hacking group known as darkside is behind a ransomware cyber attack on america's largest fuel pipeline. it carries around 45% of supplies to the east coast. us regulators have authorized the pfizer vaccine for use in children as young as 12 years old. the decision comes at a time when the vaccination rate here in the us has slowed significantly. the us television network, nbc, says it will not broadcast the golden globes ceremony next year, as pressure grows over the organisers' behaviour and lack of diversity.
