and former us first lady rosalynn carter dies, two days after entering hospice care. hello, i'm sumi somaskanda. good to have you with us. we start with several key developments on the war in the middle east. the israeli military has released cctv footage it says shows two hostages being taken by hamas to gaza's biggest hospital. the idf also released footage which it says shows a 55 metre—long tunnel beneath al—shifa hospital. here you can see the tunnel shaft entrance among the rubble of the hospital complex. also on sunday, 31 premature babies were evacuated from al—shifa, after the world health organisation described it as a death zone. they're expected to be transferred to egypt via the rafah crossing on monday. meanwhile there are indications of progress on a deal, to free some

of the 239 israelis, being held hostage in gaza by hamas. orla guerin has this report from jerusalem, and a warning it contains distressing images, from the beginning. every day, more dead in gaza. some who barely started living. this footage was filmed for the bbc today in khan younis, in the south. israel told people to flee here, to be safer. the bereaved get one last look. and a father, one last embrace. the agony of samirjamil aga, cradling his five—year—old son, mohammed. then, his other son is brought to him. six—year—old samir.

he can't bear to let him go. parted for ever. palestinians say the boys were among 30 people killed when israel bombed several houses in khan younis. but finally, hope for about 30 premature babies. doctors in southern gaza, working to stabilise them, ahead of a transfer to egypt tomorrow. eight others have died. these are the survivors of war and of the horrors of al—shifa hospital. "even the water used for their formula "was contaminated," says doctor mohammad zaqout, "and there was no proper sterilisation. "they suffered from vomiting, diarrhoea and weight loss.

"some had blood poisoning and severe infections." back at al—shifa, israel has issued this video, as it comes under pressure to justify its raid on the hospital. it says this tunnel leads to a blast—proof door, of the kind used by hamas for its command centres. and more video, this time cctv, which israel says shows two hostages being bundled into al—shifa on october the 7th, one of them wounded. at this stage, we can't verify any of the army video. in israel, many are still enveloped by grief, still mourning those killed by hamas. among the dead, a passionate peace campaigner. vivian silver was a canadian—israeli activist.

if palestinians were allowed into israel for medical treatment, she drove them to hospital. after hamas attacked her kibbutz near the gaza border, there was little of her left to bury. her son, jonathan, said her peace movement had been orphaned by her death. her clear voice had been silenced. but fellow campaigners told us they will keep going. it's very hard to us, but the way of vivian give us the hope for all of us here, to see all these people, that we must work in the way of the peace. do you think that is still possible now, with israel and the palestinians? we must, we must believe in this way, because this is the solution. but israel's peace camp has

been dwindling for years. since october the 7th, it is reeling. another war is under way in gaza — something vivian silver hoped would not be repeated. the grief here is for a beloved mother and grandmother, but also for a vision of a different future. orla guerin, bbc news, jerusalem. also on sunday, qatar's prime minister spoke to reporters in doha and said only minor obstacles remain in the way of reaching a deal on releasing some of the hostages taken by hamas. his comments came after the washington post reported that israel, hamas, and the united states were close to an agreement on the release of women and children. it's not really about a specific thing that i can comment yes or no about it. but the challenges that remain in the negotiations are very

minor compared to the bigger challenges. they are more logistical, they are more practical, and i believe that with the willingness of both parties to engage and to have this deal moving, we can reach a deal. we have been focused in the past four or five weeks now in these negotiations, we tried every way, all possible ways, in order to ensure that civilians are released. and we treat all human beings all the same. civilians are civilians, whether they are from the israeli side or the palestinian side. as we mentioned in several occasions, ourfocus is to make sure that the release is happening safely and there are also the humanitarian issues of the gaza strip to be addressed in that deal.

voters in argentina have picked their next president — far—right libertarian javier milei. these are live pictures out of buenos aires where fans are celebrating mr milei's win. the election comes as the country's worst economic crisis in two decades as argentina faces some of the highest levels of inflation in the world. mr meili has vowed to put an end to the decline of argentina. he's an economist whose anti—establishment rhetoric has gained him a loyalfollowing, especially among young voters disillusioned with traditional politics. he has promised to replace the local currency, the peso, with the us dollar, and said he would "blow up" argentina's central bank. his opponent, sergio massa — the country's left—wing economy minister — had won the first round of voting. here's mr massa conceding earlier. translation: obviously, the results are — translation: obviously, the results are not _ translation: obviously, the results are not what _ translation: obviously, the results are not what we - results are not what we expected and i have contacted javier milei to congratulate him and wish him luck because he is the president that the

husband jimmy carter to the white house, and was the most politically active first lady since eleanor roosvelt, becoming the first to have an office in the east wing. rosalynn and jimmy married in 1946. injuly the pair celebrated their 77th wedding anniversary extending their run as the longest—married presidential couple in the nation's history. rosalynn died peacefully at her home in plains, georgia, with her family by her side. the couple's non—profit human rights organization the carter center said. she was 96 years old. with me is our north america correspondent, shingai nyoka. we have seen tributes pouring in. ~ . , . we have seen tributes pouring in. ~ ., , ., , ., we have seen tributes pouring in. what else have you seen? absolutely — in. what else have you seen? absolutely and _ in. what else have you seen? absolutely and those - in. what else have you seen? absolutely and those figuresl absolutely and those figures have been very heartfelt. remembering her legacy is someone dedicated to public service. some of them have come from president biden who said that she championed equal rights and opportunities for women and girls and that she was a supporter of unseen and

as a human rights and by and she was widely criticised for that because she did not have an elected role but she really carved out a niche for herself in the white house. as you said, she established that office where she championed that because of de— stigmatising mental health and this was in the 1970s when people really did not talk about issues of mental illness. she talked about caregiving. she talked about caregiving. she attended briefings and cabinet and she also was the second first lady to appear before congress to talk about... to campaign in the cause of caregiving. and so, really, in very active but even after they left office, they volunteered for habitat for humanity, spent a week a week every week and i remember this, building homes all around the world, affordable homes for people that were disadvantaged

they both grew up and the house is just a ranch they both grew up and the house isjust a ranch house, completely unassuming. the two of them could finish each other�*s sentences and i thought one of the interesting things about the conversation, president carter was very guarded, he was not a grudge holder, it was rosalynn he was a grudge holder, she thought it was the biggest mistake that a husband did not win re—election. when i about donald trump, president trump said ronald reagan lied to. and she tapped him on the arm and said,jimmy, she tapped him on the arm and said, jimmy, this is totally different. she had a way of being blunt and outspoken. it is really incredible because she was a shy girl growing up in the south. you would never have thought she would rise to prominence and the level of self—confidence she ended up having and how politically astute she was.

around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. let's look at some other stories making news. russell brand has been questioned by metropolitan police detectives in relation to allegations of historical sex offences. an investigation by the sunday times, the times and channel 4's dispatches revealed allegations of rape, sexual assaults and emotional abuse against the comedian and actor. brand denies the claims. the british chancellor jeremy hunt says any tax cuts in this week's autumn statement to parliament will be done in a responsible way that won't risk fuelling inflation. mr hunt wouldn't comment on speculation he may cut inheritance tax but said there would be changes to the benefits system. a bottle of whisky has become the most expensive spirit ever sold afterfetching $2.7 million at auction. the macallan adami 1926 single malt is one of the world's rarest bottles of scotch, with only a0 ever produced. and tickets for the glastonbury festival next year have sold out within an hour of going on sale. the festival's organisers said demand had greatly exceeded supply. none of the headline

acts have announced yet. you're live with bbc news. an orphan from mariupol who had been taken to russia after the invasion has returned to ukraine. moscow agreed to hand over bohdan yermokhin on his 18th birthday. in russia, he'd been issued papers ordering him to report to an army draft centre once he became an adult. he was one of thousands of children believed to have been taken to russia — something which the government in kyiv and prosecutors at the international criminal court described as a war crime. our reporter olga malchevska spoke with bohdan. this picture was taken at ukraine's border with belarus and it shows bohdan yermokhin, a ukrainian teenager, alongside his cousin valerian and two ukrainian officials. now, these pictures captured bohdan on his 18th birthday. they were shared by the ukrainian parliament commissioner for human rights. this short video from

the border shows bohdan in the car. i managed to speak to bohdan when he was on his way. he said that he was happy to return and thanks everybody for helping and supporting him. he didn't know what he was going to do next. his voice sounded glad, but tired. later on, bohdan spoke to the media. translation: i believed that i would be in ukraine, - but not on this day. this is a very nice present, if i may put it that way. my emotions are overwhelming — all good, with a feeling that ukraine needs me. bohdan�*s case became public after he recorded this address to president zelensky, asking for help. while in russia, he had received military papers and faced being called up to the russian army. bohdan tried to return to ukraine in march but was stopped by the russian bodyguards. now, on friday, the russian

children's rights commissioner maria lvova—belova issued a statement, saying that now bohdan�*s opinion has changed and he plans to return to ukraine. ukrainian officials said that the probation was complicated and involved international help. the representatives of qatar were mediators between us and russian side. and so, it was the first operation when we use different missions of unicef. in ukraine, in belarus. bohdan is an orphan from mariupol. he had been taken to russia after the city was overrun by the invasion in 2022. ukraine says bohdan he was one of almost 20,000 children illegally deported to russia but, according to some human rights officials, that number would be much higher. now, in march, the

international criminal court issued an arrest warrant to maria lvova—belova and president vladimir putin. the icc said that the russian aim was to permanently remove these children from their own country. moscow rejects all accusations. the bbc�*s panorama team has followed bohdan�*s story, along with other ukrainian children taken to russia. if you want to watch that full investigation, do head over to our website. there was a ground—breaking court decision in the us last week, allowing hundreds of families to sue four of the biggest tech companies in the world — meta, tiktok, snap and google. they plan to robustly defend themselves. but the families say the platforms caused their children harm, and their lawyers point to the case of 14—year—old british schoolgirl molly russell as an example of the dangers facing children on social media. angus crawford reports. i feel like they killed my son — that's how i feel. jennifer mitchell had no idea herson, ian,

kept a secret. i keep his ashes in here. ian didn't tell her about the graphic videos he saw on social media about russian roulette. she only found out after he died, killed by a single gunshot. jennifer, along with hundreds of other parents, is suing the social media companies she blames for ian's death. to me, itjust feels like justice for my son. but at the same time, i feel like i can help other people. is thatjennifer? today, she's sharing her story across the atlantic with ian, molly russell's father. kids are dying every day. it's so grim, isn't it? yeah, it really is. molly was just 1a when she ended her life. her inquest revealed a stream of dark, depressing, graphic material which flooded her accounts.

we should not be sitting here. this should not happen because it does not need to happen. the coroner decided molly died while suffering the negative effects of online content. those revelations, in a small court in north london, also made a huge impact across the atlantic in the us capital. lawyers here in washington watched the inquest via video link for any evidence that could help them as they sue some of the biggest tech companies in the world on behalf of hundreds of children and families in the us who claim the platforms caused them harm. i think it was a really important watershed moment. you know, any time you have someone stand up and actually fight back and win, it shows everyone else that it's possible. the tech companies say their claims are unfounded and they'll robustly defend themselves. but across the us, more and more people arejoining the action. my daughter molly... in colorado, feeling

like a survivor, taylor little. all of our stories are the same — molly russell's especially. that was my second suicide attempt and i was finally able to get real long—term treatment. i spent hours and hours and hours and days and days, just reading about suicide on social media. it took my life from me. i don't — i literally was trapped by addiction. a landmark court case, then, but also a very personal battle to hold social media to account. angus crawford, bbc news, denver, colorado. two people have died in bulgaria after storms swept through the country. a red weather alert was also issued in neighbouring romania. our reporter nicky schiller has more.

a state of emergency was declared in bulgaria's black sea region of varna after heavy rains and winds hit the region. this was the scene where a 43—year—old woman lost her life when a tree fell on her. police say that falling branches also injured two ambulance crew that had been sent to the area. separately, a 65—year—old man was killed when a tree fell on his car in sofia. his wife, who was a passenger, was also injured. the local mayor urged people to remain indoors. indeed, an alert has remained in force on sunday for wind gusts of up to 125km/h. it wasn'tjust rain and heavy winds causing problems — this was the scene in the north—east of bulgaria, where snow drifts closed a number of key roads. police said they had dozens of calls from stranded motorists. as these images behind me show, the storm also hit

bulgaria's neighbour, romania. a red alert for heavy rain and strong winds was issued in the south—east of the country. indeed, winds hit 150km/h, uprooting trees and damaging the roofs of houses. the torrential rain flooded many streets in constanta, with emergency teams deployed to try to clear blocked roads. emergency alerts were sent to people's mobiles telling them to stay indoors. a number of areas were also left with no power. and finally, in russia, hurricane—strength winds have hit parts of siberia. two people were killed. again, a tree hit the car that they were in. a number of other people have been injured, while there has been damage to homes and power lines have been brought down. a hat worn by napoleon

bonaparte when he ruled the french empire in the 19th century has sold at auction in france for $2.1 million, which is around 1.9 million euros. the sale price was considerably higher than the auction house had estimated. wearing a hat became a central part of napoleon's image, with the military commander famously wearing his headgear sideways to make him recognisable on the battlefield. taking you to paris for one more item. this is the moment the french capital lit up in celebration of the christmas season. crowds gathered along the champs—elysees to witness the event. the lights will stay up very well into the new year. thank you for watching bbc news. i'm sumi somaskanda in washington. stay with us. hello there. the weekend has been pretty cloudy, but mild — temperatures of 15 degrees in the warmest spots on sunday. we had some rain as well. you can see some of that working across the skies here in gower, near swansea. and a bit more rain to come as well. the same area of low pressure's still with us, so damp weather for

northern england, southern and central scotland, northern ireland. the rain not particularly heavy here but some heavier rain pushing across southern wales and southern parts of england over the next few hours. a mild start to the day on monday and we pick up that band of rain working into the south—east quickly monday morning before clearing out of the way. what follows again is quite a lot of cloud. the winds coming in from a northwesterly direction and they'll be bringing some showers into wales and south west england with more persistent outbreaks of rain across the north—east of scotland. in between, it does stay quite cloudy but some breaks in the cloud every now and then. a bit of sunshine, particularly for east anglia, south east england and probably brightening up in northern ireland through the afternoon as well. temperatures still on the mild side at 12 or 13. for wednesday, we start to see a ridge of high pressure build in from the north and with that comes the prospect of some bigger breaks in the cloud, particularly across southern and central scotland, northern ireland, north west england, north—west wales as well. elsewhere, quite a bit of cloud. the thickest cloud for the far north of scotland,

where a weather front will start to move its way back in. our temperatures close to average, though, on tuesday. it will be a slightly cooler kind of day. wednesday, we've got some warmerair coming around the top side of our area of high pressure behind this warm front and with fronts crossing scotland, it's here where we'll have the thickest cloud outbreaks of rain. it's going to be quite windy as well. the heaviest rain for western scotland. the rain probably not amounting to too much across eastern scotland. drier further south for southern eastern wales, the midlands, east anglia, southern counties of england — that's probably where we'll see the best in the breaks in the cloud in the cloud, the best of the day's sunshine. temperatures around 11—14 degrees so, again, it's mild. now, towards the end of the week, we are going to see some more significant changes as a cold front dives southwards and starts to introduce some much colder air. question marks how far south this cold air gets and exactly how cold it will be when it arrives. however, it does look like we'll all see a significant drop in temperatures and it could get cold enough to see some snowfall over the mountains of northern scotland, so one to watch. bye for now.
