the attacks on tuesday, described the bombing as unconscionable. hundreds of displaced palestinians were seeking shelter at the premises. let's go live tojerusalem and our middle east correspondent yolande knell. what is israel saying about this attack on the palestinian red crescent building in khan younis? it hasn't talked about this specifically, but it has in its latest briefing said it has killed dozens of terrorists in the past 2a hours. what we have really seen on the ground is an intense campaign of air strikes going on in khan younis in the south there have been a number of deadly strikes, this is of course the city where israel believes hammers leaders may still believes hammers leaders may still be hiding, and so what residents are telling us, there are artillery

12:39 pm
are giving an insight into a period we know little about. what's being revealed is baffling the archaeologists. it's really rare to have a site like this. each one of these is a grave, and the team of excavated 18, so far, but they think there could be more than 70 at this site. now they're all aligned in the same position, running from east to west. and in some of them, the skeletons are flat on their backs with their legs outstretched. but in others, like this one over here, the skeleton is in a really unusual crouching position. why this is isn't clear. were burial practices changing over time? or was there something else marking these people out as different? the skeletons are some of the best preserved. we're actually very, very lucky with that. and this particular individual is one of our better preserved ones on the site as a whole. the skeletons are being carefully excavated and they're already providing clues about how these
12:40 pm
people lived and died. as bones get cleaned, we'll find pathologies. they can tell us about health, tell us, in some cases, about work. we have some teeth that are very worn in kind of a funny way that might indicate the use of teeth as tools — maybe for textile work, leatherwork, basketry, where they're pulling something through their front teeth. so, all together, we'll have a really good not only life history of these people, but also a community history. got something that looks like glass. pick it out carefully. what's being found alongside the skeletons is posing even more of a puzzle. it is glass. a shard of fine french glass has just been discovered. hopefully, the rim from a cone beaker. so which would have looked like an ice cream cone and it probably was imported alongside wine in barrels from the bordeaux region of france. a really nice find. it's just one of an array of artifacts from fragments of pottery,
12:41 pm
perhaps from north africa, to a tiny carved peg. this little object is manufactured from animal bone. it could be a peg for fora gaming board. kind of cribbage or some sort of game? yes, yes. a medieval version. yes, something like that. it suggests people were coming to the cemetery to meet up, eat and drink — the living and the dead existing together. we tend to think of graveyards as sort of enclosed spaces that we don't really go to, but they probably would have been quite central to life in the past. and it's notjust a place where people are being buried, but it's a place where communities are coming together. they are burying their dead, but they're also undertaking other forms of activity and social practice, including eating and drinking and feasting. no nearby settlement has yet been found and the dig is creating a perplexing picture. the items unearthed in the cemetery suggest wealth — that the people there
12:42 pm
were of high status. that's what we're trying to find out as part of our work is what exactly is going on, who are these people being buried here? the people interred here have access to very high—quality imported goods that you can only get through trading or exchange networks with people with a lot of wealth to bring it here. this unusual cemetery is just starting to give up its secrets. archaeologists have onlyjust begun to scratch the surface. they hope their excavation will reveal much more — not only about each individual buried there, but also about the medieval way of life that's remained an enigma for so long. rebecca morelle, bbc news, cardiff. absolutely fascinating. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news.

tacking up to take down criminals. it might not be theirjob, butjess sinclair had volunteered to even up the fight when it comes to crime in the countryside. i'm out on my horse almost every day and this volunteering role came up and i thought, yeah, let's go for it. why not? the aim to crack down on incidents like this, which last year nfu mutual says cost the midlands economy more than £11 million. you've had a tip off already? yes. we've been contacted by a volunteer. she had been out riding, had come across some silver tents in a hedgerow ditch line. she's hopped off to have a look. and it was the remains of a cannabis grow. but there was also quite a large box with cannabis in it. the 20 riders vetted and recruited will work alongside rural policing teams to be their eyes and ears along quiet country lanes.
12:44 pm
you're live with bbc news. here in the uk, the government says pupils at schools in england which are partially closed because of dangerous concrete — known as raac — won't get extra help in their exams. some science and technology students have had to change courses, after being unable to access workshops, labs or equipment since september. 0ur education correspondent hazel shearing has more. it's really dangerous because we don't know what could happen to it and it could fail at any point. from southend to leicester. this was one of the first areas that they found that we had raac. so that area was out of use. up to durham. it's heartbreaking. it's really heartbreaking. and down to suffolk. it's not how we teach at this school. we get great results. it's disappointing, but the children are better with us than at home. exams are edging closer, but schools are still waiting for a dangerous type of concrete, called raac, to be made safe. we've got the heavy machinery around us here for the room. students at shoeburyness high school have had to change their whole gcse
12:45 pm
from design and technology to 3d design because they can't get to the machinery they need. it's very difficult. obviously, we want them to do what their passion is, what their choice is, what they wanted to do and what they expected to do. and for anyone, particularly when they're doing exams, it's very, very difficult partway through a course to be told you suddenly don't have an option that you had before. we'd never want to do that. but what we're looking at is the least worst option for them. we're limited to two rooms now. one of them is in an it room, so it's not even an actual woodwork room. these a—level students are hoping for special consideration in their exams. we found out about the closure at the start of year 13. it had such a shocking effect on us. i cried because it was very, like, worrying. we're using stanley knives and rulers instead of the laser cutter, which obviously makes it pretty difficult. this will affect us for the whole of our course and it's not just l going to be like a little problem. it is a big problem. we're going to be doing an experiment about how can we make different sized craters.
12:46 pm
not a bunsen burner in sight in this science lesson, not even any test tubes. hadleigh high school has had to close all of its science labs and fill the playground with two—storey temporary classrooms. they're cold, they're echoey. i've got different staff in and out because we're trying to be fair so that not everybody teaches permanently in a cold classroom. we looked at whether we could use an art room for a dissection, because there's running water and we felt we could perhaps clean up and use that space. but the head teacher here is a scientist. she's looked into that, there's rules and regulations and we can't use that space. what help do you want to see for students taking their exams this year? i would like the exam boards to understand that our children have not had the specialist provision that every other child they're competing with in the exam season has had. england's exams regulator says it has extended coursework deadlines and schools should reach out for support. schools want more help, though, such as percentage increases on exam results. but the department for education
12:47 pm
says it is not possible to make changes to exams and assessments for only some groups of students. st leonard's catholic school in durham says it's an extremely challenging experience forfamilies, students and staff, and it's in discussions to ensure its students are not disadvantaged. nicola cooke wants special consideration for her son, who has his a—levels coming up at the school. he said to me the other day, oh, mama, i'm kissing my a—stars goodbye. i'm not going to be able to get that now. and i was like, 0k, well, do you still think you'll get the grades that you need to get into your chosen university? and he's like, well, i'm going to try my best. it's frustrating. ijust...i have no answers. i can't solve the problem myself as one parent. none of us can. we need the government to come together and to really understand what the impact of this is. the government says most of the 231 schools confirmed to have raac in england are teaching pupils in person, but that can
12:48 pm
look very different depending on where you are. some children at parks primary school are learning in a nearby council building and the headteacher has found an innovative way to get from a to b. two classes have been able to stay within this building, but we've had to bring portaloos for them because there is no toilets. we had a few children who were not going to the toilet for the day because they didn't like that, so we had to do some work around making them feel more secure within those areas. we miss each other. you know, the strength of this school is the togetherness of the community, of the staff, and we've done all we can. so we will be delighted once we're back all together. many schools, though, fear a solution is still some way in the distance. hazel shearing, bbc news. we're on target for some sporting history in london tonight. this is teen darts sensation luke littler. atjust 16 years old, he's become the youngest person ever to reach the final of the world darts championship. littler secured his place with a comprehensive 6—2
12:49 pm
win over fellow brit, rob cross. this was littler�*s reaction after the win. it is beyond believable. i only set my goals to win one game and come back after christmas and i'm still here. he's still only a teen — but it seems littler�*s talents were already on display from an even younger age. he honed his craft at an academy in st helen's — where his influence and inspiration is still felt today. i didn't know he could do such big things, when he was at the academy i thought he was just a normal kid who played darts, but now i have seen him in the world championships. when he gets to the oche, he doesn't feel anything, he just gets on with his game. what makes luke littler�*s journey to the final so remarkable is who he's had to defeat to get there. the six rounds of competition have included wins over two titans of the sport, including 5—time world champion raymond van barnefeld and that win against rob cross — he was 2018 world champion.
12:50 pm
however, littler�*s toughest test may still be ahead of him. in the final he'll meet world number one, luke humphries. he's looking to extend an 18—game winning streak with the world championship title. joining me live now is former darts world champion dennis priestley. i'v e i've learnt a lot about darts over the past few days, can you tell me why luke littler is so impressive at the age of 16 to bruary is now? if i knew the answer to that when i would have done it myself when i was 16! you would have made a fortune! yeah, brilliant. i you would have made a fortune! yeah, brilliant- i just — you would have made a fortune! yeah, brilliant. i just don't _ you would have made a fortune! yeah, brilliant. ijust don't know— you would have made a fortune! yeah, brilliant. ijust don't know how - brilliant. ijust don't know how he's doing it at that tender age. it's usually well into your 20s before you've gathered enough experience to be able to do what he is doing, and the actual quality of his throwing is unbelievable. 100
