plus, the ceo of the artificial intelligence company behind chatgpt could be making a comebackjust one day after his ouster. i'm helena humphrey. good to have you with us. the world health organization says it led a high—riskjoint humanitarian mission to al—shifa hospital, finding a mass grave and a catastrophic situation for the injured patients remaining there. the who says the hospital has become a "death zone," its corridors filled with medical and solid waste, increasing the risk of infection. it points to the lack of clean water, fuel, medicines, food and aid, causing al—shifa to "essentially stop functioning as a medical facility". the who says they were able to spend one hour inside

the hospital in a mission co—ordinated with the israel defense forces to ensure safe passage and now, they are drawing up plans for a full evacuation of al—shifa. hundreds of people had already left gaza city's main hospital, where the israeli military has been conducting raids this week. those fleeing the hospital include the sick, the injured, medical staff and people who had been sheltering at the facility, with some seen waving white flags. some medical staff claimed israeli forces ordered the evacuations — something the israeli military denies. the who says there are about 291 patients remaining in the hospital with several deaths over the previous 2—3 days due to the shutting down of medical services. the patients include 32 babies in extremely critical condition, two people in intensive care without ventilation, and 22 dialysis patients whose access to lifesaving treatment the who says has been severely compromised.

now, in israel, thousands of family members of the 240 hostages held by hamas in gaza finished a five—day march from tel aviv to jerusalem. at the end of the march, about 20,000 people attended a rally outside the residence of prime minister benjamin netanyahu. for more on all of this, i spoke with our correspondent yogita limaye. you have been speaking to those families who rallied outside the house of benjamin netanyahu. is the mood they're reflective of the broader move among israelis? i reflective of the broader move among israelis?— among israelis? i think the broader mood _ among israelis? i think the broader mood among - among israelis? i think the| broader mood among them among israelis? i think the i broader mood among them is frustration and anger. thousands of people marched from tel aviv a few days ago. they enterjerusalem today and came outside the prime minister's office. speaking to them, i think the frustration,

especially of the families of the hostages, was that the government is not making the hostages the number one priority. so prime minister benjamin netanyahu benjamin neta nyahu has benjamin netanyahu has repeatedly said, and he has talked again tonight, about the destruction of hamas being the first priority, then the release of hostages. and speaking to the brother of one of the man who was taken, 22—year—old man who was kidnapped from a music festival in southern israel, i asked him what he feels about what the prime minister has been saying and he said ifeel furious, because the first thing that the government should be doing is getting the hostages released. it's six weeks, and time is running out for many of them. around 30 of them are children. there are also many elderly people. we have also spokenin elderly people. we have also spoken in the past few weeks to the son of an 84—year—old woman who has been taken hostage. he says she needs medication every day to survive, to stay in good

health. forthem, it's now day to survive, to stay in good health. for them, it's now been six weeks, and they say they have had very little information from the government. they say they want their leaders to look them in their leaders to look them in the eye and tell them exactly what is being done to bring their loved ones back. i want to touch _ their loved ones back. i want to touch on _ their loved ones back. i want to touch on the _ their loved ones back. i want to touch on the situation - their loved ones back. i want to touch on the situation in l to touch on the situation in the gaza strip as well, because there continues to be evacuation orders. we are not always sure, there is not always sure, there is not always that clarity exactly where these orders are coming from, but for the palestinians who receive them, do they know where to go? is there somewhere for them to go to? i where to go? is there somewhere for them to go to?— for them to go to? i think that's been _ for them to go to? i think that's been the _ for them to go to? i think that's been the problem i for them to go to? i think. that's been the problem all along. there were leaflets dropped early on in the northern part of gaza asking people to move to the south, towards the israeli military —— towards the israeli military —— to what the israeli military repeatedly kept referring to as safer areas, repeatedly kept referring to as saferareas, but repeatedly kept referring to as safer areas, but we know that there have been airstrikes repeatedly in central and southern gaza as well, killing hundreds of civilians. just

this week alone, and so people ask this question, what exactly is a safer area? and now in the past week they've been dropping leaflets over central gaza, telling people to evacuate from their. so it is very unclear, where do you actually go to? you have fled your home to try to get to a safer area, but what exactly is it safe? this is the question that people in gaza keep asking when we have been speaking to them. of course, today i think what has particularly stood out, and there's been a lot of commentary around it, are videos that emerged on social media of a strike on a school shelter in northern gaza. we had the un making very sharp comments about it, saying that a ceasefire is required immediately. not clear what caused an explosion. israeli defence forces are saying that they are investigating. the hamas run health ministry says

scores of people have been killed there.— scores of people have been killed there. ., ., ., killed there. yogita, thanks so much. also in the past few hours, we heard from us presidentjoe biden on the war. in an opinion piece published in the washington post, mr biden has reiterated his call for a two—state solution to the conflict between israel and the palestinians. the president laid out a us vision for gaza when the war is over, with mr biden saying that gaza and the west bank should be reunited under a single governance structure, led by the palestinian authority, which currently governs the west bank. for more on this, i spoke to gina abercrombie—winstanley, who serves as president of the middle east policy council. before we talk about some of the content of that op—ed put out by president biden, ijust wanted to ask you about why. why do you think, presumably, the white house communications team thought that this needed to be put out at this particularjuncture?

particular “uncture? well, thank particularjuncture? well, thank yom _ particularjuncture? well, thank you. it _ particularjuncture? well, thank you. it is _ particularjuncture? well, thank you. it is an - particularjuncture? well, i thank you. it is an extremely long op—ed. it takes a lot of reading to get through it all, touching on the ukraine as well as the israel — hamas war, and what should happen with regard to gaza. i think the president and the administration felt it was very important to get across some main points. he does, of course, talk about leadership, but he makes three main points in this piece. number one, an acknowledgement that the pain and suffering, losses, on both sides, to make clear that he understands that in the united states understands that. number two, he laid out some very clear redlines for both sides. and, of course, he called for the international community to help with the reconstruction of gaza, to address the destruction that the government of israel has wrought with regard to the gaza strip. those

redlines are four. number one, no terrorism should be able to be launched from the gaza strip again, which is worth returning to. numbertwo, no reoccupation of the gaza strip. no blockade or siege of the gaza strip and no territorial grab from the government. israel, which has had some discussion about a buffer zone in the north or something along those lines. i think the president felt it was important to be very clear as early as possible about what the united states would countenance and what the united states will not. since the united states— sorry, go ahead? ijust united states— sorry, go ahead? i just wanted to united states— sorry, go ahead? ijust wanted tojump in united states— sorry, go ahead? ijust wanted to jump in there on one point specifically about gaza and the west bank after the conflict, because he did write about the us�*s position in that, quoting this, gaza and the west bank should be

reunited under a single governance structure, ultimately under a revitalised palestinian authority. we know that that's not where israel stands at this present stage, so do you think that will change over time? do you think the us could have a role in persuading israel to change its position there? i persuading israel to change its position there?— position there? i think so, and i think the _ position there? i think so, and i think the israelis _ position there? i think so, and i think the israelis are - position there? i think so, and i think the israelis are likely i i think the israelis are likely to come to it in and of themselves. something else under an israeli rule seems quite impossible, and who other than palestinians can rule over palestinians? once you say no reoccupation, then it means it's impossible for the government of israel or some entity from israel to provide governance of the palestinians, and the israelis aren't interested in doing that long—term either. but someone has to, and of course, if the israelis did take that on, then they would be responsible for they would be responsible for the governance and the reconstruction of the gaza

strip. and i think this is something that very few people have stomach for at this point. i imagine it's going to be a challenge for the president to get funding out of congress for the united states to contribute to it, and there are others, particularly if it were under israeli rule, that would be unwilling to do so. i israeli rule, that would be unwilling to do so.- israeli rule, that would be unwilling to do so. i also want to touch on — unwilling to do so. i also want to touch on the _ unwilling to do so. i also want to touch on the hostage - to touch on the hostage situation, because in that op—ed, the president says that the us has been working around the us has been working around the clock to try and get american hostages out. i'm sure you've seen the scenes today in israel with families who have had their loved ones taken hostage, going directly to the residents of prime minister netanyahu. do you think that the families of those loved ones feel that enough has been done, that there's been enough attention on the hostage situation?— attention on the hostage situation? ~ , , ., ~ attention on the hostage situation? ~ ,, .,~ situation? well, i can speak as a human being, _ situation? well, i can speak as a human being, with _ situation? well, i can speak as a human being, with family. i. a human being, with family. i am certain that they don't. i think none of us would, until we got our loved ones home. and

this need for focus on the return of hostages is very well understood by the president. that's why it was included in his op—ed. it is certainly more than a talking point for us officials, who talk about the need to return hostages. we know that there are our own citizens among them, as well as other foreign governments have their citizens as hostages. it's the same issue as whether the citizens who have been trapped in the gaza strip under israel's attack on the gaza israel�*s attack on the gaza strip— israel's attack on the gaza strip— this need to ensure that the safety of our people is paramount. the safety of our people is paramount-— the safety of our people is aramount. ~ , , paramount. well, the president has also said, _ paramount. well, the president has also said, talking _ paramount. well, the president has also said, talking about - has also said, talking about this, he has spoken about the role of the united states and he has said the world looks to us to solve the problems of our time. that is the duty of leadership, and america will lead. ijust wonder, do you think the american public is on board with that right now? i think the american public

generally understands our place in the world, with the resources that we have, both economic and military. it puts a weight of leadership on our shoulders and that we have to try and do it is best as possible. what i would say in this op—ed, a couple of things ifound missing. number one, to say that there should be no terrorism launched from the gaza strip is a worthy goal, but very difficult, and i cannot think of a place on earth that is immune to the threat of terrorism. so how that would happen, i'm not sure. but, more importantly, the united states has been trying to husband the peace process of reconciliation between israelis and palestinians almost since the birth of the nation of israel, and there is nothing in this op—ed laying out the vision that would give confidence, i believe, to american citizens

and others as to why this time would be any different from any prior effort. now, maybe it's just that this wasn't the place to go into details, but a fierceness of position with regard to israel as well as the palestinians, i think, regard to israel as well as the palestinians, ithink, is regard to israel as well as the palestinians, i think, is going to be needed. for palestinians to be needed. for palestinians to give up the option of resistance, of terrorism even, it requires that there be a credible alternative. and that is — i did not see that in this op—ed yet, but hopefully that will come in the coming days. gina abercrombie winstanley, thank you so much forjoining us. turning to news now from the world of tech. some of the biggest names in entertainment, including disney, comcast and warner brothers discovery, have become the latest companies to pause their advertising on x after the platform's owner, elon musk, responded approvingly to an anti—semitic post earlier this week. mr musk denies it was anti—semitic.

he's said on saturday he will be filing what he called "a thermonuclear lawsuit" against all those who colluded in a fraudulent attack on x. tom brada has more details. elon musk�*s commitment to free speech is becoming more and more costly, and he'll be concerned by headlines like this. companies such as disney, warner brothers and ibm are pulling ads on the social media site x because of concerns over allegations of hate speech and extremism. now, there are two issues at the heart of this current row. one of them relates to a post which mr musk put out on wednesday, when he wrote: ..underneath a post which was pushing an anti—semitic conspiracy theory. now, mr musk denies being anti—semitic but the white house put out an unequivocal statement, saying:

another issue stems from an investigation by a left—leaning us media watchdog, which says that some ads are being placed alongside pro—nazi content. now, mr musk has threatened to launch a "thermonuclear lawsuit" and x argues it has some of the strongest brand safety controls in place, but it is clearly a problem if firms are reluctant to work with x. when mr musk took over the company last year, advertising made up around 90% of revenue — although byjuly this year, he acknowledged that ad revenue had fallen by 50% and he has tried to move away from a reliance on advertising revenue. he's obviously brought in the membership fee for the once sought—after blue tick, but even that only brings in a tiny fraction of the revenue that's needed and even for the richest man in the world, that presents a serious problem. another ceo in silicon valley, sam altman, was ousted at openai. the creator of the artificial intelligence firm behind

chapgpt sacked him, saying it's lost confidence in his ability to lead the company. but he could be back soon. us media are reporting that he is in talks to return as ceo of the company. the board had said friday mr altman had not been "consistently candid with his communications," hindering its ability to exercise its responsibilities. the president of the company, greg brockman, resigned in protest hours after mr altman was fired. live now to takara small. she's a technologyjournalist and columnistjoining us to talk about all things techi. —— to talk about all things tech. welcome to you. great to have you back with us. so, reports tonight from the verge say that the openai board is in discussions with the ousted ceo sam altman to have him return to the company as ceo. what are you hearing? imean, first i mean, first off, it's very rare to see discussions about

an executive in a tech company migrate into social discussion. you are hearing this and seeing this on social media, on twitter, instagram and tiktok and right now, what i'm hearing and right now, what i'm hearing and again, it's very rare to have this happen so publicly does make is sam altmann will return to the company, to openai, yes he was ousted on friday and yes there has been an eruption over this but he will return and i think it has much to do regarding sam's actual position in the company, he's become the face of ai and for him to be ousted means that likely there will be money and funding and supporters who will go with him. 50 funding and supporters who will go with him-— go with him. so potentially his oustin: go with him. so potentially his ousting could _ go with him. so potentially his ousting could have _ go with him. so potentially his ousting could have potentially| ousting could have potentially blindsided some investors but when it comes to tensions between him and the board, do you think they will be solved overnight or do they remain? i mean, at this point in time, there are so many rumours and mudslinging and insinuation and it's hard to determine what

will happen and when it will but this is definitely something that has shaken not only tech executives that the company but the industry and i'm sure people at home are thinking why would i care what is happening at this ai company? it's important to think about the fact this ai boom is actually being privatised so the fact we are having a company had such a public disagreement about something that could impact our jobs, our healthcare, etc, i think is something that everybody should be worried about and discussions that the government should be part of the board. government should be part of the board-— the board. that's an interesting - the board. that's an interesting point. i the board. that's an i interesting point. what the board. that's an - interesting point. what do the board. that's an _ interesting point. what do you think that this one particular dispute tells us about the industry more broadly in terms of the challenges it's facing amid regulation, amid war competitors?— amid regulation, amid war competitors? amid regulation, amid war cometitors? , ., competitors? many advocates for ears competitors? many advocates for years have _ competitors? many advocates for years have talked _ competitors? many advocates for years have talked about - years have talked about regulation and advocated for more government and more input from the public and i think this goes to show why it is necessary. a private company thatis necessary. a private company that is able to create and i will admit chatgpt, dali, a lot

of companies that people find fascinating and have helped companies should not be in the hands of one entity and i think if we're going to progress move forward and incorporate more ai into our lives it needs to be donein into our lives it needs to be done in a transparent manner and situation with openai really showcases that it needs to happen in a public way. i want to touch on the comments we've seen from elon musk, controversial comments seen as anti—semitic, something that elon musk himself denies. but in the wake of it we've seen advertisers leaving x and i wonder how bad you think that is for the model when it is already seen the departure of some advertisers.— some advertisers. this is a soa - some advertisers. this is a soap opera. _ some advertisers. this is a soap opera, every - some advertisers. this is a soap opera, every day - some advertisers. this is a soap opera, every day it i some advertisers. this is a - soap opera, every day it seems like something new is happening. i think the fact that we are seeing companies not just that we are seeing companies notjust inaudible a textbased, notjust inaudible a textbased, notjust inaudible a textbased, notjust ibm or apple but lions gate as well actually shying

away from advertising on the platform shows that there is some reluctance to continue working with the new version of twitter and even though he's incredibly wealthy, there are investors who also are starting to feel the repercussions. i do to feelthe repercussions. i do want to ask — to feelthe repercussions. i do want to ask more _ to feel the repercussions. i do want to ask more broadly with regards to the rise in hate speech, very sadly, that we are seeing on social networks amid the israel hummus war. —— hamas. the israel hummus war. -- hame— the israel hummus war. -- hamas. ., , . hamas. how they with that? quite poorly- _ hamas. how they with that? quite poorly. this _ hamas. how they with that? quite poorly. this is - hamas. how they with that? quite poorly. this is not - quite poorly. this is not something that is used solely on twitter, it's something on many platforms is because it's challenging and costly to moderate something of this nature in real—time and additionally again when you have private companies that don't have to abide by the same laws in every country, you see some of the problems we are seeing online and i don't think it's anything that will go away any time soon and that can lead to not only this ——

disinformation but i think real world violence.— world violence. takara small, tx journalist _ world violence. takara small, txjournalist and _ world violence. takara small, txjournalist and columnist, i tx journalist and columnist, thank you for being with us and talking through all of that. —— tech. the world of formula i has descended on las vegas, which is hours away from hosting its inaugural grand prix. the highly anticipated event ran into trouble early in the first practice session when a drain cover came loose. drivers have praised the venue for its glamour, as it's located right on the las vegas strip, but have criticised organizers for problems on the track. a short while ago, i spoke to chris medland, a journalist who is following the event from las vegas. it was a rocky start, especially with issues in practice that delayed the second practice session inaudible remove fans because they could not keep staff there to keep them safe but then the second day of running yesterday all last night into the early hours of this morning with qualifying went smoothly, much

better, kind of normal race day as such they are really looking forward to actually seeing the grand prix itself take place because that's really what this is about about the image. 20 f1 cars racing down the strip this evening which is going to look remarkable so hoping it goes off without a hitch.— off without a hitch. coming back to that, _ off without a hitch. coming back to that, well, - off without a hitch. coming back to that, well, not - off without a hitch. coming back to that, well, not so l back to that, well, not so small issue of the drain cover coming loose, then, and some of the criticism and max verstappen for one not very happy about it. a lot of criticism there.- happy about it. a lot of criticism there. yes, max is inaudible _ criticism there. yes, max is inaudible this _ criticism there. yes, max is inaudible this place - criticism there. yes, max is. inaudible this place anyway criticism there. yes, max is - inaudible this place anyway and understandably so, las vegas isn't for everyone and a lot of drivers say i would rather not be here racing, i would rather be here racing, i would rather be on an old school racetrack rather than not be caught up in the trappings here, the events, so he has been against it but he hasn't said it is wrong we are here, he'sjust said he is not a fan but it's critical you cannot have an issue like we have had. we've had it before at multiple venues, at monaco,

but when the focus was on his face and the hype around it is properly the worst possible start and put them on the back foot and as i say, fortunately they've recovered pretty well since the first day and the truck has run smoothly since. i want to touch on where you are specifically in las vegas because of course we know a desert climate but it also gets a recall at night as well. is it have any impact on the track? , . ., ., ., track? -- very cool at night don't let — track? -- very cool at night don't let the _ track? -- very cool at night don't let the sunshine - track? -- very cool at night don't let the sunshine fool| don't let the sunshine fool you, it will be under the lights at 10pm we start racing and it's much cooler, about 13 or ia celsius which is half the temperature we are normally racing in which impacts the way the tyres work and cars, the brakes and temperatures they get them up to, because they are used to racing at higher temperatures that we see drivers sliding around a little bit but it makes it another challenge, it's not unsafe at all and it's been quite fascinating to see the differences between drivers as they fight to get to grips with that so it should add another

aspect of the races well but in that sense that's all gone fine as well, itjust means we will have to layer up a bit for the race. , , . , have to layer up a bit for the race. , , ., , ., race. this is a big event for las vegas. _ race. this is a big event for las vegas. it _ race. this is a big event for las vegas, it cost - race. this is a big event for las vegas, it cost an - race. this is a big event for las vegas, it cost an awful| race. this is a big event for i las vegas, it cost an awful lot to put on. we have had this drain incident but it's meant to be a glamorous grand prix. do you think the drain incident or have any impact? how do you think this grand prix will be remembered? i think this grand prix will be remembered?— think this grand prix will be remembered? i don't think the drain incident _ remembered? i don't think the drain incident itself— remembered? i don't think the drain incident itself will- remembered? i don't think the drain incident itself will be - drain incident itself will be the major impact, it's the fact there was a lot of focus on how great and big and glitzy the race was going to be and almost ramped down your throat it would be the biggest event of the season and biggest ever and then to get teething problems which are always going to happen for a first year reflects badly so they put themselves on the back foot, themselves on the back foot, the organisers, and liberty media who owned the formula i are part of the media team and i heavily invested but i think the races will recover and the main thing does recover the racing action on track tonight. now before we go, a reminder of our top story — the world health organization saying it led a high—riskjoint

humanitarian mission to gaza's al—shifa hospital, finding a mass grave and a catastrophic situation for the injured patients remaining there. the who says the hospital has become a, quote, "death zone". about 80 bodies reportedly in that mass grave, the who says it has been told. it's been communicating its severe concerns with regards to a lack of medicine, aid, waterand if you'd like more, please head to our website where we will continue to update you on that story as we get it. you are watching bbc news. i'm helena humphrey. i will have more for you at the top of the hour. goodbye for now. hello there. we've seen two different sides to autumn over the last couple of days. friday, i'm sure you'll remember, we had lots of sunshine across the country and temperatures generally near average, although it was

a bit cold in scotland. contrast that with the weather we had on saturday, where there was a lot of cloud around but it was a lot milder. temperatures in yeovilton up to 17 degrees celsius. it was also quite windy for some — for example, here in west scotland. now, saturday's weather was all due to this area of low pressure. sunday's weather will all be due to this area of low pressure, too. it's not really going anywhere very fast at all. so, the south—westerly winds that we've got at the moment will continue to feed in some fairly thick layers of cloud — thick enough to bring outbreaks of mostly light rain and drizzle, although there could be a few heavier bursts mixed in for west scotland and northern ireland at times — so, we are looking at a mild start to the day on sunday. near the centre of this low pressure in scotland, it won't be too windy but in contrast to that, the winds picking up across the south coast of england and into southern wales as well. i think towards the south—west coasts, we could see gusts picking up to about a0—odd mph, so it will be a noticeably blowy kind of day. some further damp weather

working from west to east but you do have a chance of seeing a few glimmers of sunshine pushing through the cloud at times. here's our low pressure still with us for monday, slowly slipping away into the north sea and weakening. still, though, bringing cloud and patches of rain but, again, there should be a few more brighter spells intermingled, particularly across more inland areas. and although still mild, those temperatures are just starting to edge down a little bit as we head through the course of monday. heading into tuesday, we start to see a ridge of high pressure moving in off the atlantic and that should give us better breaks in the cloud, particularly across scotland and northern ireland, although there could be a few mist and fog patches to start the day here. maybe one or two showers draped around coastal regions of england and wales but otherwise, probably largely dry. temperatures coming down, closer to average for the time of year — about 9—12 degrees celsius for most. now, with that mild weather lasting for much of the week, it will often be quite windy. towards the end of the week and next weekend, though, there is a question mark as to how far south we start to see some cooler air

moving its way in. what i think we will see is a drop in temperatures and across some of the mountains of northern scotland, it could get cold enough to see some of the showers start to turn a bit wintry.
