hello, welcome to the daily global, where we'll bring you the top stories from around the world. there been a second day of violence between is been a second day of violence between israeli forces and armed palestinians after a major raid by israel into the occupied west bank. 11 people have been killed in the operation in thejenin refugee camp, the palestinian health ministry says four of them were under 18. the israeli say the action was attempting to root out terrorists. palestinian authorities say it's a war crime. they say 3000 people have leftjenin, un operatives i alarm at the operation. demand has driven his car into people after a knife

attack. 0ur internationaljeremy bowen is injenin and send this report. the israeli military released these pictures. their message? israel's enemies can expect no mercy. families caught in the crossfire managed to get out overnight. the impact on civilians is alarming un agencies, what they call the loss of life and the scale and severity of injuries. this morning, the israelis said they were working systematically to locate and destroy weapons. palestinians had tried to make this part ofjenin a no—go area for israelis. 0n the edges of the refugee camp, theirfury and

frustration overflowed. more families came out of the combat zone. the un says israeli strikes cut much of the camp's power and water. he said they'd been held by the army in a room. he said drones were shooting at them. we've just got out. we're all exhausted. nothing to drink or eat this morning. what a mess. as for emergency services, the un says destruction makes access hard. tear gas was used repeatedly next to the hospital on the edge of the camp. another un concern. but it seemed to be aimed at crowds

of angry palestinians who gathered near there. some had homemade bombs, potentially deadly close up. here they are. crude devices. israel's firepower is very different. seriously ill patients were evacuated. some ambulances, the un said, were stopped from reaching other casualties by the army. the crowds were nervous, excitable. this conflict dominates their lives. there is every indication the israeli army wants to keep all this confined to the camp because they're worried about escalation. and there's also every sign they want to declare victory and get out. but victories for the israelis here are always temporary because these people, the palestinians, feel that just their presence here is victory in itself.

and violence, more violence, is guaranteed in the absence of a political process, in the absence of any hope for peace. at the same time, a palestinian rammed his car into civilians in tel aviv on israel's coast. he was shot dead by a passer by. a hard—line government minister said their war was injenin and tel aviv and everyjew was a target, he said. for bloodthirsty murderers. back injenin with drones still patrolling overhead, it feels as if the israeli operation here is in its final hours. the israelis sayjenin is no longer a terrorism factory. when the camp opens up, the price paid by palestinian civilians will be clearer. jeremy bowen, bbc news, jenin. earlier, explosions continued in jenin asjeremy spoke to me from the

city. this kind of thing has been going on all day. the former israeli prime minister naftali bennett joins us from jerusalem. thank you forjoining us. first of all, the israeli military are calling this an israeli operation but we know that young people are being killed, four of them under 18, is that what the military set out to

do to kill people between the ages of 16-18? v do to kill people between the ages of 16-18? ,, _, a, , ~ do to kill people between the ages of 16-18? ,, a, , ~ ~ of 16-18? quite the contrary. all 11 --eole of 16-18? quite the contrary. all 11 peeple dead _ of 16-18? quite the contrary. all 11 people dead there _ of 16-18? quite the contrary. all 11 people dead there are _ of 16-18? quite the contrary. all 11 . people dead there are medicines. the fact that there young terrorists that decide to hold arms is their response visit. at the end of the day, over the past year or so, we've had over 50 israelis murdered in many by terrorists sent from jenin camp, armed training and sent to kill and murder israelis in tel aviv, jerusalem, across israel. jenin is becoming a centre of terror. we had to enter this hornets nest of terror and neutralise the terrorise otherwise they will continue giving us. in fact, all of the palestinians that were killed are terrorist in this case. terrorists but children, the israeli forces are happy to kill children?

it's quite remarkable that you would say that because they are killing us. if there is a 17—year—old palestinian that is shooting at your family, orwhat palestinian that is shooting at your family, or what is he?— family, or what is he? under your definition you _ family, or what is he? under your definition you are _ family, or what is he? under your definition you are calling - family, or what is he? under your definition you are calling them . definition you are calling them terrorists, the un. i’m definition you are calling them terrorists, the un. i'm actually axin: terrorists, the un. i'm actually axing you. _ terrorists, the un. i'm actually axing you. what _ terrorists, the un. i'm actually axing you, what would - terrorists, the un. i'm actually axing you, what would you - terrorists, the un. i'm actually axing you, what would you call| terrorists, the un. i'm actually i axing you, what would you call it terrorists, the un. i'm actually - axing you, what would you call it a 17 euros person shooting at your family with a rifle? how would you do find that person? we family with a rifle? how would you do find that person?— family with a rifle? how would you do find that person? we not talking about that. the _ do find that person? we not talking about that. the un _ do find that person? we not talking about that. the un has _ do find that person? we not talking about that. the un has defined - about that. the un has defined them as children and we know that for people between the ages of 16—18 have been killed in this targeted attack. let's not forget it's a targeted attack. the israeli forces are going and looking for these people. i are going and looking for these --eole. , , ,., ~ people. i missing something. a 17-year-old _ people. i missing something. a 17-year-old person _ people. i missing something. a 17-year-old person can - people. i missing something. a 17-year-old person can kill- people. i missing something. a - 17-year-old person can kill innocent 17—year—old person can kill innocent civilians, which is a difference between what we are doing which is

targeting terrorists. that is exactly the opposite. we are doing the right thing and they are killing civilians. the fact that you're trying to create this moral equivalence or worse i think is unacceptable. it equivalence or worse i think is unacceptable.— equivalence or worse i think is unacceptable. equivalence or worse i think is unaccetable. , �* . ., ~ unacceptable. it isn't language like this and actions _ unacceptable. it isn't language like this and actions like _ unacceptable. it isn't language like this and actions like the _ unacceptable. it isn't language like this and actions like the ones - unacceptable. it isn't language like | this and actions like the ones being taken that will stoke tensions even more westmark if we are looking for a peaceful solution at any point, surely what is doing injenin and the retaliatory attacks in tel aviv are not the way forward? if there were a tone _ are not the way forward? if there were a tone of _ are not the way forward? if there were a tone of terror, _ are not the way forward? if there were a tone of terror, let's - are not the way forward? if there were a tone of terror, let's say, i are not the way forward? if there i were a tone of terror, let's say, 50 km from london and on a daily basis, from that tone, from that centre of terror, there were uk civilians being killed and murdered on the streets of london, i'm sure you'd send forces there. you know, we don't have much of a choice. in fact, the reason we see this rise in

terror injenin is because israel is not injenin. we leftjenin about 30 years ago in the early 90s. israeli soldiers don't run around jenin and i guess when we let go of a certain territory into ointment openly becomes a hornets nest of terror. let's look at some of the international reaction to action there. the us has said israel has a right to defend itself but it's also said it's imperative to take all possible precautions to prevent the loss of civilian life. can you say with surety, assurance, that precautions are being taken to prevent the loss of civilian like? absolutely. we also know that 3000 people have been forced to leave jenin, so they fear for their lives. i can understand that and, unfortunately these 3000 people aren't killed, the temporary left the centre of the camp, because the

camp has become a terror camp, we have to go in and clean up the terror and leave.— have to go in and clean up the terror and leave. where are those 3000 peeple _ terror and leave. where are those 3000 peeple going _ terror and leave. where are those 3000 people going to _ terror and leave. where are those 3000 people going to go - terror and leave. where are those 3000 people going to go now? i terror and leave. where are those - 3000 people going to go now? they're auoin to find 3000 people going to go now? they're going to find temporary _ 3000 people going to go now? they're going to find temporary sanctuary - 3000 people going to go now? they're going to find temporary sanctuary in i going to find temporary sanctuary in jenin, 3000, look, this is something we want to do. your present and it's as if we enjoy entering jenin as a soldier, a commander, i know that no israeli soldier, no is really mum, want to send their ball intojenin, we do it because we have no choice and they are murdering israelis on the street. stabbing them, shooting them, blown up on them, and infected it terrorists came into tel aviv and rammed his car deliberately into about ten civilians. that's what's going on. it's asymmetric. we are not targeting civilians, they are only targeting civilians. you not targeting civilians, they are only targeting civilians. you say it somethin: only targeting civilians. you say it something you — only targeting civilians. you say it something you don't _

only targeting civilians. you say it something you don't want - only targeting civilians. you say it something you don't want to - only targeting civilians. you say it something you don't want to do i only targeting civilians. you say it i something you don't want to do but israeli politicians have been calling for this action for some time, and you also say you want to go in and clean it up but we note that thejenin brigades, they may be young, many of them are desperate, they lack the affiliation of previous organised dose groups. how can you clean that up?— can you clean that up? you're right, it's more complex _ can you clean that up? you're right, it's more complex but _ can you clean that up? you're right, it's more complex but i _ can you clean that up? you're right, it's more complex but i want - can you clean that up? you're right, it's more complex but i want to - can you clean that up? you're right, it's more complex but i want to talk| it's more complex but i want to talk about what you inferred to as the politicians, make no mistake, i'm not a huge supporter of this government but i stand behind this government but i stand behind this government and all is israelis, left and right, coalition and opposition. stand behind the security forces of israel, fighting for our own lives. so, there is full consensus in israel that we have to do what we have to do and then gets out of there in order to restore a security on the streets of tel aviv. and there in order to restore a security on the streets of tel aviv. and how lona will on the streets of tel aviv. and how long will that _ on the streets of tel aviv. and how long will that take? _ on the streets of tel aviv. and how long will that take? and _ on the streets of tel aviv. and how long will that take? and how- on the streets of tel aviv. and how long will that take? and how long i on the streets of tel aviv. and how. long will that take? and how long as

thank you forjoining us naftali bennett. thank you very much. the former is really prime minister joining us from jerusalem there. there we had an israeli perspective. as get a palestinian view no with. joining us live now is nour 0deh, palestinian political analyst, and former spokeperson for palestinian authority. i know you are listening to the interview, how do you react when he described some of the victims, who we know are under 18, as terrorist? you know, dehumanizing victims is classic and it's really in line with what naftali bennett has always done and what israel does to excuse its documented violations of the rights of palestinian children. in the past six months, israeli occupation

forces have killed 30 palestinian children, including some as young as five. i think one was even younger than that. more palestinians killed so far this year in the west bank than all of last year. so, to paint this as a pinpoint operation to defend israelis when an asset assaults on protected persons under international law, refugees inside occupied territory, is really quite astounding. i don't know how he does it was a straight face but he manages. it was a straight face but he manages-— it was a straight face but he manaues. �* ., '~'j~ , it was a straight face but he manaues. �* ., '~'j~ g' ., manages. although, 16-18, they know what they're — manages. although, 16-18, they know what they're doing. _ manages. although, 16-18, they know what they're doing. they _ manages. although, 16-18, they know what they're doing. they are - what they're doing. they are organised and carried out attacks, he says they deserve to be killed if they carry out that action. they do appear to be informed. yes. they carry out that action. they do appear to be informed.— they carry out that action. they do appear to be informed. yes, and they are deep in — appear to be informed. yes, and they are deep in the _ appear to be informed. yes, and they are deep in the hearts _ appear to be informed. yes, and they are deep in the hearts of _ appear to be informed. yes, and they are deep in the hearts of the - are deep in the hearts of the occupied west bank. where israel has

absolutely no right to operate, no right to invade, the right to carry out a ground and air offensive against palestinian refugees. the fact it is doing so, we have to put things in perspective. why is israel attacking jenin? why is it attacking palestinian cities throughout the past two years? it's doing so to protect its regime of control of the palestinian people and allow for the expansion of israeli settlements, which are illegal under international law, in the occupied west bank. for those supplements to expand, palestinians have to be dispossessed and their land expropriated. so, these military assaults spur that regime of control and colonisation and disposition. there is no other way to view this and we can't view its separate of what the declared programme of this is really government. it is a government that is the most extreme

and, the most anti—palestinian month that israel has had perhaps since his establishment. it does not even recognise there a palestinian people. it considers the west bank part of israel which is a point that nobody in the world agrees with. it violates the un charter to start with. it wants to crush the notion of palestinian statehood. those are the words of that is really prime minister. we have to take him at his word. we have to view all of these actions with that in mind. the canons, the secular attacks, the settlement expansions, the rhetoric palestinians needing to be reined in, because they can't tolerate to be subjugated, nobody does. nobody wants to be ruled against their will. , ., ., , will. the israeli military said there attacks _ will. the israeli military said there attacks are _ will. the israeli military said there attacks are targeted . will. the israeli military said| there attacks are targeted at particular people but today we saw an attack on civilians by palestinians from the west bank, how is that justifiable?

palestinians from the west bank, how is thatjustifiable? i’m palestinians from the west bank, how is that justifiable?— is that “ustifiable? i'm not sure that i is thatjustifiable? i'm not sure that i did is thatjustifiable? i'm not sure that l did said _ is thatjustifiable? i'm not sure that i did said there _ is thatjustifiable? i'm not surej that i did said there justifiable, but again because it takes mentors year was up israel launched a offensive agency refugee camp i was in thousands of families in a very densely populated, tiny, piece of land. i check in that area, no matter what the israelis claim, cutting off electricity and destroying water infrastructure, and checking hospitals nearby, shooting atjournalists checking hospitals nearby, shooting at journalists and checking hospitals nearby, shooting atjournalists and ambulances, is not a targeted attack. it does not spare the civilians who are entitled to protection under international law. the fact that palestinians are reacting, we saw this attack in tel aviv, is a tragic consequence, it's a predictable course of action that israel has created time and time again over half a century. of its control tells us that this is the playbook we will see on repeat so long as israel is more interested in

maintaining control, and annexing palestinian land and denied palestinian land and denied palestinian rights. there'sjust no way to imagine that palestinians was simply wake up one day, acquiesce, accept to be subjugated and accept to be dispossessed of their land. it hasn't happened in palestine, it has not been in ukraine, itjust won't happen, that'sjust not been in ukraine, itjust won't happen, that's just not told you miniature works. happen, that'sjust not told you miniature works.— happen, that'sjust not told you miniature works. ., ,, , ., ., miniature works. thank you nour 0deh for “oininu miniature works. thank you nour 0deh forjoining us.- — around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news. three people have been arrested for transit the king of detective. the

by the sunday mirror. let's speak to our political correspondentjonathan blake. what is the latest on what the met police are saying? aha, what is the latest on what the met police are saying?— police are saying? a significant “oint police are saying? a significant joint update — police are saying? a significant joint update from _ police are saying? a significant joint update from the - police are saying? a significant joint update from the met - police are saying? a significant. joint update from the met police police are saying? a significant - joint update from the met police and thames valley police, saying they are reviewing new material in relation to potential covid beaches. they're open in one investigation and reopening in a second. three important phases to this. the first was an event which you mention on the 14th of december 2020, which conservative party activists were invited to jingle and mingle as the invitation stated at an event held invitation stated at an event held in honour of sean bailey's mayoral campaign for the conservatives. it was held at their london headquarters and previously, previous police had investigated events which have been forced to

solve but no fixed pendency issue. recent report come to light from the sunday mirror where people are seen drinking and dancing at the event and the police would look into that events all over again. the next investigation is entirely new and relates to an event in parliament here at westminster on the 8th of december the same year. this was an event, we don't know the exact nature of it yet but recently, last week in fact, the conservative mp are pleasures for attendance at each and said it was done so moment of error ofjudgment. a member of the parliamentary committee was also reported to be there. he also stated that same incident that there would not be appropriate to comment on a continuing investigation. the other significant development this evening is police said they would not investigate any further the former

prime minister borisjohnson himself because material, including this diary entries, had been passed by the cabinet office to police. police say i haven't looked at that that potential evidence does not meet the required criteria.— required criteria. thank you jonathan — required criteria. thank you jonathan blake _ required criteria. thank you jonathan blake are - required criteria. thank you jonathan blake are a - required criteria. thank you i jonathan blake are a political correspondent in westminster. the bbc has been told that the former brexit party leader nigel farage had his bank accounts at the prestigious private bank coutts closed because they fell below the financial threshold required for customers. our business editor, simonjack has the story. nigel farage posted a statement that

is a bank was going to close the comments because it was a politically exposed person, his profile made him controversial. eventually it was found that the bank was coots, which caters to the very rich and people are familiar with the situation said the decision to drop and was a customer was not a political decision but a commercial decision and pointed us towards the thresholds posted on their website about how much money needed to be a coots customer for something needs to borrow or invest £1000 with the bank or have 3 million bones in saving. they also said they offered nigel farage a plain vanilla high street bank account, which actually owns coots, mr faraj did not dispute or whether he fit this criteria but said the offer of the natwest account came late in the day and only after he threatens to raise his

concerns but the people familiar with this state it was a commercial and not political decision. i have to say that a number of coots customers have been in touch with me and the bbc saying that they fall below the threshold and they have not been threatened with their bank closure, so clearly there is some discussion available. discussion did not choose to offer to nigel farage and he's adamant it is part of a political process and as we stand here now, there a natwest account available for nigel farage, so his claim that he would have to leave the country because you can find a bank account, seems a bit strong. that is sam and jack are business edits arejoining us that is sam and jack are business edits are joining us from the newsroom. some quick pictures if you think the moon is looking bigger and brighter it's because it is a full back super moon. it's about 21,000 kilometres closer to the earth than usual. here

it is. hello there. quite a lot of you will have seen some fairly heavyish rain around through tuesday afternoon. 0n the satellite picture, you can see a couple of bands of cloud. this one for scotland and northern ireland brought some showery conditions. this one in the south was a system that continued to develop, and we saw rain become extensive across southern england, southern wales, the midlands and east anglia. this system is going to continue developing through the course of the night. and so we're looking at a band of heavy rain moving its way eastwards. the wettest weather for norfolk and suffolk, where we could see around 30 or a0 millimetres of rain by the end of the night. and as that low pressure deepens, we've got a swathe of windy weather to the east coast of england with gusts of wind running into the forties of miles an hour by the time we get into the first part of wednesday morning. so wet and windy weather to start the day here. then this area of low pressure clears off into north west europe where it will be bringing some potentially disruptive winds, perhaps strong enough to bring down a few trees.

for us, though, it's a day of sunshine and showers. now because it's going to be quite a breezy day if you do see a shower, it won't last very long, maybe 15 minutes the rest of your day dry with some sunshine. temperatures still a little bit below par for the time of year. now at wimbledon compared with the wash—out that we had on tuesday afternoon with rain really curtailing play, we're looking at much better weather for wednesday. there could be a passing shower. it won't last very long and for most of the day, play will get under way unaffected, really, could just see a 15—inute delay or so. low pressure then moves in to the west of the uk for thursday, and this is going to be bringing some heavy rain, particularly to western counties of northern ireland, where there's a risk of seeing some localised surface water flooding, hazy spells of sunshine elsewhere across the uk. and given that we should start to see the weather turn a little bit warmer, those temperatures getting close to average for the time of year across england, wales and eastern areas of scotland. for friday, still the threat of some heavy rain across the north west of the uk thanks to these wiggling weather fronts. but across more eastern areas we start to get southerly winds drawing in some much warmer weather.

and for england and wales, that means temperatures will be surging upwards. and indeed, on friday, we could see highs reaching around 28 degrees celsius in london. 28 degrees celsius in london. so feeling hot and quite humid, so feeling hot and quite humid, warm weather for wales, warm weather for wales, 26 in cardiff, and starting to warm up for the eastern side of scotland as well. the weekend more warm, if not hot, weather across eastern areas of the uk, but otherwise there'll be lots of showers and thunderstorms around through the second part of the weekend and deep into next week as well.
