basic supplies. it comes as the world health organization says it's deeply concerned by reports of israel ordering the evacuation of the al quds hospital in northern gaza. they head to the who said it was impossible to evacuate hospitals without endangering life. israel says egypt and the us are expanding humanitarian aid into gaza, at ten trucks have been allowed in from egypt today. cairo says hundreds more are being held up by israeli checks. the un secretary—general antonio gutierrez said the situation is growing more desperate by the hour, he has been speaking to the press. hour, he has been speaking to the ress. . . ., hour, he has been speaking to the ress. . ., ., v, ., ., press. have arrived here from qatar and i will continue _ press. have arrived here from qatar and i will continue to _ press. have arrived here from qatar and i will continue to insist - press. have arrived here from qatar and i will continue to insist on - press. have arrived here from qatar and i will continue to insist on the i and i will continue to insist on the immediate and unconditional release of all the hostages in gaza. i repeat my utter condemnation of the appalling attacks are perpetrated by hamas. there is nojustification

everfor hamas. there is nojustification ever for the killing, hamas. there is nojustification everfor the killing, injuring and abduction of civilians. the situation in gaza is growing more desperate by the hour. i regret that instead of the critical humanitarian pause, supported by the international community, israel has intensified its military operations. the number of civilians who have been killed and injured is totally unacceptable. all parties must respect their obligations under international humanitarian law. that law emerged from the awful experiences of war and. i've always been consistent in my call for strict compliance to the well—established principles under international humanitarian law. the protection of civilians is paramount. the laws of war establish clear rules to protect human life

and respect humanitarian concerns. those laws cannot be contorted for the sake of expedience. the those laws cannot be contorted for the sake of expedience.— those laws cannot be contorted for the sake of expedience. the us says israel should — the sake of expedience. the us says israel should take _ the sake of expedience. the us says israel should take every _ the sake of expedience. the us says israel should take every means - israel should take every means possible to distinguish between palestinian civilians and hamas militants in its military operation in gaza. the us national security adviser says that president biden will call the israeli prime minister later today to reiterate the us position that civilians must be protected. he's been speaking to abc. ~ ., , , protected. he's been speaking to abc. , y , protected. he's been speaking to abc. , , , abc. war is highly unpredictable so it is difficult — abc. war is highly unpredictable so it is difficult to — abc. war is highly unpredictable so it is difficult to predict _ abc. war is highly unpredictable so it is difficult to predict how- abc. war is highly unpredictable so it is difficult to predict how it - it is difficult to predict how it will play out. but i will say this — israel was attacked in a brutal, vicious terrorist attack. they are taking steps to go after the terrorists who struck them. they have been doing so from the air. they are now doing so on the ground.

and hamas, this brutal terrorist organisation that conducted the attack, is hiding behind the civilian population, which puts an added burden on israel to differentiate between the terrorists and innocent civilians, but it doesn't lessen their responsibility under international humanitarian law and the laws of war to do all in their power to protect the civilian population, and that is equally true moving in on the ground as it is taking strikes from the air. pope francis has called for a ceasefire in the israel—gaza war and appealed for the release of all hostages. he was speaking in his weekly address in st peter's square. translation: let us not give up. let us continue praying for ukraine and for the dramatic situation in palestine and israel, and for other regions at war. in gaza in particular, let us open humanitarian aid spaces, and let the hostages free immediately. let no one abandon the possibility to stop weapons. stop, brothers and sisters.

war is always defeat. always, always. were expecting this to come up, this is tel aviv, we are waiting to hear a statement from the idf, israeli defence force is spokesperson, due to speak at some point in the not too distant future. we will be keeping those images on screen for you and a service we see anyone appear, we will go to that.

at the first stage, we lost about 7000 palestinian lives, so are we going to lose more? another 10,000 in the second stage? and where will this take us? this will not take us to the peace and security we all want. this war is utterly inhumane, when is enough enough? how many innocent lives? so for over for children have been killed, almost 8000 palestinians have been killed. when is enough to burn? want do we say the square has to stop, the square is not getting us anywhere? the shocking images that we see coming out of gaza and challenge all of our humanity. this has got to stop, that is our biggest concern

right now. stop, that is our biggest concern riiht now. ~ ., ., , ., i, ., right now. what would georgia do if an attack on — right now. what would georgia do if an attack on the _ right now. what would georgia do if an attack on the scale _ right now. what would georgia do if an attack on the scale of— right now. what would georgia do if an attack on the scale of the - right now. what would georgia do if an attack on the scale of the top - right now. what would georgia do if an attack on the scale of the top of| an attack on the scale of the top of the sevens happened injordan? what the sevens happened in jordan? what we will do it so _ the sevens happened in jordan? what we will do it so we _ the sevens happened injordan? iii"isgt we will do it so we recognise the sevens happened injordan? “iii"isgt we will do it so we recognise the pain of october the 7th on israel, we would not be human if we did not, but this humanity is also to be shown by all of us. yes, it was terrible and tragic but do we sink deeper into the abyss of taking more lives? well killing more palestinians bring back those who were sadly and tragically lost? it will only make things worse. at least you know as you have covered the region for years, the amount of hatred and misery that come out of this will not lead to peace. what jordan would do is say, let's learn from what happened, let's pause and ask why are we here and work together to eradicate any tendency

towards violence, nights we will do by bringing about peace, by creating the conditions that would allow palestinians and israelis to recognise the humanity of the other. insurance, we will create peace under a two—state solution is that both palestinians and israelis live in peace and never again have to suffer the pain and misery and the death that we were receiving now. —— that we at ruaridh seeing right now. do you agree with the queen that there is a double standard that the western states it either abstained or voted against the resolution you sported in the general assembly? what i think what her majesty said and what we say is that international law has to be applicable to all. no country is above the law. we all need to come out strongly, firmly, on the side of the charter of the united nations, the international law. 0n the side of our humanity. we've seen a resolution adopted

by the general assembly afterjordan presented one on behalf of the arab group. that resolution was supported by the majority of people on this earth, if you count the numbers. that's a step in the right direction. we need all of us to come and say, international law has to apply equally and fairly. no life is of lesser value than the other. we valuejewish life, we value israeli life, we value palestinian life. and we hope everybody will come from this moral ground. and we say, and everybody says, that life matters no matter what the nationality, what the religion, what the race is. and again, make sure that everybody is convinced that international law applies to all. but are you deeply disappointed by your key allies, including the united states, britain, other western states, who very publicly came to israel and said they are on israel's side in this war? you know, lyse, what we told

everybody is, like, support israel. but you are not supporting israel by supporting this war. you support israel by supporting peace, because only peace will bring the security and safety to every palestinian and every israeli. supporting this war is only going to push this region deeper into the abyss, carries the risk of regional war. and lyce, how many wars have we had before? how many violent operations have we had before? if we want to defeat the narrative of violence, we have to offer a narrative that convinces people that you have your right to a life free from occupation, free from oppression within you and what's standing between you, and that is violence. unfortunately, we haven't seen that. we have seen the palestinian issue reduced to a question of creating a job here or a job there, thinking that you can jump over the palestinian issue to make peace in the region, which is a fallacy, as events have sadly and terribly shown us. but that is the lesson for all.

what we want injordan, what we want in the arab world is for palestinians to live in peace. that war is not helping. 0nly peace would do that. and again, prevent us from creating peace again. president erdogan of turkey has said that hamas is not a terrorist organization. do you agree? look, i think nobody“s going to benefit from characterisations. everybody stands where they are right now. everybody is navigating different... do you agree with israel's war aims to destroy hamas? aims this time to destroy hamas? jordan has had its own problems with hamas. lyse, we have to ask the question what are the conditions that produce hamas? unless we change those conditions, the same conditions, the same misery will produce hamas and what's other than hamas. what we're trying to say, let us all convince all people on both sides that the adoption

of violence as a strategy, as a means to get the peace is the wrong way. let us offer people an alternative. and then people themselves, palestinians and israelis, will come and say, "we don't want violence, because peace negotiations "are getting us what we want, which is a life of decency, a life of safety, a life of promise." but we need to anchor things in realities. and again, let me be very clear, if i may, here. putting things in context is not in any way justification. we“re notjustifying what happened on october seventh, no human being will. but at the same token, no human being willjustify what's happening in gaza now. so let's be clear. let's put things in context. learn from why we are facing this terrible moment in our very sad and tragic history in this part of the world, and all work together and say, "enough, enough, enough," and move forward to a stage and follow an approach that is peaceful, that will bring peace to all.

you obviously want to focus on the future, you“ve you obviously want to focus on the future, you've mentioned it many times. what is the future of gaza out of this military operation is over? isjordan already part of the operations behind the scenes and does it include hamas? the operations behind the scenes and does it include hamas?— operations behind the scenes and does it include hamas? the focus now is on stopping — does it include hamas? the focus now is on stopping at _ does it include hamas? the focus now is on stopping at this _ does it include hamas? the focus now is on stopping at this catastrophe - is on stopping at this catastrophe we see unfolding. after that we all need to come together and go back to the drawing board, which is only a comprehensive peace... but the drawing board, which is only a comprehensive peace. . ._ the drawing board, which is only a comprehensive peace... but what is the future of — comprehensive peace... but what is the future of hamas _ comprehensive peace... but what is the future of hamas in _ comprehensive peace... but what is the future of hamas in gaza? - comprehensive peace... but what is the future of hamas in gaza? that l the future of hamas in gaza? that will be determined, _ the future of hamas in gaza? that will be determined, i— the future of hamas in gaza? “t"isgt will be determined, i believe, by the reality on the ground. do we create our reality that will convince people they have a future and then people themselves will stand against any other approach, weather by hamas or others. you want hamas out of the picture, prove hamas out of the picture, prove hamas is doing wrong, that hamas will not get palestinians a future

that they want. war has failed to do that they want. war has failed to do that repeatedly. 15 years of... we have already seen the tactics used by hamas, is that the future of gaza? ~ ., ., ., , ., gaza? we have to ask the question, wh are gaza? we have to ask the question, why are we — gaza? we have to ask the question, why are we here _ gaza? we have to ask the question, why are we here and _ gaza? we have to ask the question, why are we here and what _ gaza? we have to ask the question, why are we here and what you - gaza? we have to ask the question, why are we here and what you have| gaza? we have to ask the question, l why are we here and what you have to do to make sure it doesn't happen again? i tell you that the wasteland that gaza is becoming now will produce conditions of misery that will take us all into this very spot which we never wanted to be in, which we never wanted to be in, which will work so hard to avoid, and letters work hard to on both sides get raids of the things and to get everybody, including hamas, believe that by tsitsipas, we need to give people the alternative. the only alternative is a meaningful peace process that will simply get palestinians and israelis what any

say that hamas no longer cares, they want nothing other than to use the palestinians as control. he has lost control and he is responsible for the collapse of gaza. he is a murderer that has proven it to the world that hamas is worse than isis when they carried out the murderous massacre on the 7th of october, killing hundreds of babies, children and unarmed civilian. we will chase him into we find him. we are calling upon the northern gazans to evacuate temporarily to the south, for your own safety, and we are stressing that. we are calling upon you urgently to do that. below the

carson river, the conditions will be better, there is water, food and medication there. in the north, they carried out a number of launchers of missiles towards the north, so we retaliated and we eliminated those terror cells and where they were launching missiles from. we also killed the terrorists that were on the security fence that were trying to infiltrate and were trying to attack israel. this evening, dimmer missiles launched on the north of israel. israel immediately reacted and they foiled this attempt. we will continue by sea, by air and by ground. we are very prepared in the north and we will continue. any kind of assault or attempt against us will be immediately retaliated. the

hermit commands, home front commander, spoke today about how all the directives on life—saving directors and we will only be able to continue this routine if people adhere to these directives. alto now, we have notified 311 igf fatality families. and 230 hostages. it is a number that is unfathomable. there are civilian there, there are foreign workers, and some of them, their identity is very complicated to try and actually identify, which is why i have said at the moment it is why i have said at the moment it is 229. we are exerting every possible effort in order to update the families of all the time and to

receive information. at the moment is, we would like to speak to those who are missing, there are li0 is, we would like to speak to those who are missing, there are a0 are still. we know the uncertainty is unbearable but we will not rest until we find out what has happened to your dearly beloved friends and family. in the north... but the rockets that were fired in the north of israel and towards other areas that were intercepted where it was actually shot into an open space, come as one took responsibility for that, so we know that anything that emanates from

lebanon is their responsibility and if they have chosen to be a shield to hamas and isis, then of course we will immediately reacted to that. they should be protecting lebanon and there are people. around guards out there are a number of divisions of tanks and also infantry. but how come they are finally reached the few kilometres into the gaza strip? but with barry talking about a sort of buffer zone of a kilometre? while, we are not going to detail where ourforces are while, we are not going to detail where our forces are and there are numerous reasons for that. all we want is the security and safety of our troops because we wish to eliminate as many of those terrorists and their operatives and their infrastructure as possible.

we“re their infrastructure as possible. we're not going to start talking to the press about exactly where we are and how many of us and what we're doing. but we are not running an assault campaign in the gaza strip. have you been succeeding in promoting that some kind of deal for the hostages? the objectives of this campaign are that we want to dismantle and bring about a collapse of hamas is of course, bring the hostages home. those of the two main objectives and that is how we built and structured our plan and is we're moving from in that plan and we want to fulfil that plan. it is our responsibility to muck about the chief of general staff is updating all the commanders of the various arenas about it every single day. those of the two. this offensive of ours is serving both of those

objectives, thank you very much. 50. objectives, thank you very much. so, that was a live _ objectives, thank you very much. so, that was a live press conference there from the spokesperson from the idf, the is ready force, giving us an update on the military situation come at a elements i there. a couple of lines to pick out, first of all, yet again repeating that call to people to evacuate from the north of gaza down to the south. the quote is, the conditions will be so much better they are. he talked about food and water being available. he talked about specific incidents, terrorist, and his words, are being killed on the security fence. and also talked about people in gaza are being used effectively as human shields by hamas. that was his claim at, using the schools and hospitals. a couple of more details that we were picked over injust moments, i

news. hello. rain has dominated the weather story over the last couple of weeks and there is more unwanted rain to come through the week ahead. but also of concern, the risk of damaging winds, particularly through wednesday night and thursday, as i'll show you in a moment. in the shorter term, still some outbreaks of rain, certainly some showers as we go through tonight, some clear spells as well. temperatures maybe dropping to three degrees in the highlands, 11 there in the south—west of england, but low pressure still very much in charge of our weather as we head into monday morning. this low will be weakening somewhat, so it won't be as windy on monday, but there will still be some showers. some really hefty showers actually across parts of northern ireland, the isle of man and some scattered showers across england and wales. some of these still heavy, thundery, still with the potential to bring some localised flooding and disruption, some sunny spells in between. scotland having a much drier day, just the odd shower, but most places will be fine and temperatures north to south, 8 to 15 degrees. into tuesday, more

showers in the forecast. a band of showers likely to be pushing northwards and eastwards across northern ireland, parts of england and wales. scotland again largely dry. south—west england later in the day will see a band of heavy thundery rain, our next frontal system, and that will drive its way northwards and eastwards during tuesday night and into wednesday. very heavy rain for the middle part of the week. some snow for a time over high ground in northern scotland, also turning quite windy for coasts of wales, south—west england and in the north of scotland. those temperatures again, 8—15 degrees. and then we have a deep area of low pressure that is expected to approach our shores on thursday. this has been named storm ciaran by the met office. the exact track of this low may change a little bit between now and then, so it is worth staying in touch with the forecast as we firm up on the details. certainly, though, it looks like many of us will see some very heavy rain. and down towards the south

of england and south wales, there's the chance for inland spots to see gusts of up to 60mph. but if this forecast comes off as is currently expected, we could see gusts of 80—90mph for exposed coasts in the south. that would bring damage and significant disruption, there will also be a lot of rain. live from london.
