this is bbc news, the headlines. the un's human rights office has said it is appalled by israel's continued bombing and other attacks on parts of northern gaza after 8 consecutive days of heavy strikes. lebanese officials say at least nine people have been killed in a rare israeli attack on the north of the country lebanese officials say at least 21 people have been killed in a rare israeli attack on the north of the country in a christian majority region. and — a nasa spacecraft that will hunt for signs of life on one ofjupiter�*s moons has blasted off from cape canaveral, florida. the three armed robot makes its debut as an orchestral conductor in germany, but hasn't hit all the right notes? more on developments in the

middle east sunday saw a number of attacks in gaza at different locations on the strip with people killed and injured including at the hospital grounds were displaced people were sheltering. this e—verify has been looking at some videos emerging from gaza. it's been another weekend of deadly attacks in the middle east. israel says four soldiers were killed at an army base in the north. in lebanon the health ministry says more than 50 were killed by israeli strikes. and in gaza, there have been a number of deadly strikes. we're going to focus here on gaza. remember that international journalists don't have free access to the strip. so we've been looking at open source material, primarily videos and still images shared online that we can verify to try and build up a picture. this map shows gaza and some of the strikes we've seen over the weekend. this is nuseirat camp where the un was preparing to administer polio vaccines. the hamas run health ministry in gaza says 22 people were killed here with dozens more injured. we've not used all of

the footage we found because it's so graphic. this is jabalia refugee camp, where ten people have been reported dead after a strike by the israel defense forces say they told people to leave the area, and they accused hamas of preventing some from doing so. this one here is al—shati, where five children have reportedly been killed while playing. let's focus in the one al—aqsa hospital, because we've been able to build up more of a picture of what happened here. this is an area where displaced people have settled. look at this satellite imagery. it shows temporary structures around the hospital likely to be tents. again, there's a lot of graphic footage we're not using, including videos that show a person seemingly trapped in the fire and burning alive. but here's what we can show. you can see here a fire on the grounds of the hospital. this was posted on x. it matches what we know about the area around the hospital. here's a second video showing the aftermath. you can see the extent of the damage.

many tents appear to have been set on fire. you can also see the charred remains of a couple of cars. the hamas run health ministry says at least four people are dead. many more are reported injured. the israel defense forces say steps were taken to mitigate the risk to civilians, and that a hamas command and control centre was targeted. the conflict in gaza has been raging for more than a year now, but there are still deadly attacks happening on a regular basis. in the past few minutes is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu has rejected neta nyahu has rejected accusations netanyahu has rejected accusations that israeli troops have deliberately targeted peacekeepers in lebanon as completely false and repeated a call from them to be withdrawn from combat zones —— unfil peacekeepers. the israeli military has denied targeting un peacekeeping the un secretary—general

antonio says that is a breach of international law. the israeli prime minister has asked him to get unfil forces out of harm's way immediately saying hezbollah use unfil positions as cover and have claimed the lives of many israelis including the drone attack on sunday. earlier i spoke to uur correspondentjohn sudworth who has been following developments at the un in new york. well, unifil have been in lebanon since 1978. they were there after israel's first invasion of lebanon, and they've remained ever since with the mission of keeping the peace at the invitation of the lebanese government, essentially. and their presence authorised on an annual basis by the united nations security council, they are meant to monitor what's known as the blue line, to make sure that you know that either side is not engaging, engaging in military activity, that it shouldn't be.

and they are authorised to use force only in self—defence or if civilians are under a direct attack. so they've been part of the picture for a long time. both sides have accepted their presence, but obviously in recent days and weeks we have had this war of words over their presence with israel, suggesting that they are now in the way of its operation to try and target hezbollah positions. the israelis have said that the un is essentially acting as a kind of human shield, making it very difficult for it to complete its military operation. unfil, of course, has pushed back very strongly, and there has been very widespread condemnation, notjust from member states who commit troops to that mission, but more widely as well about these recent attacks. yeah, unfil in the past half hour orso and ajoint

statement of four countries italy, britain, france and germany have said that they perform an essential stabilising role. so what could happen next? with israel saying they need to get out of the way and the un saying, "no, we're staying where we are." well, israel has in some sense has been sort of personalising this demand that unfil leave southern lebanon by calling on the un secretary—general secretary—general antonio guterres. of course, you know, there's history there. he is now persona non—grata in israel. israel has said that he is not welcome to visit. he himself has condemned in very strong terms what has been happening with unfil in recent days. but it largely misses the point. he does not have the authority to call for unifil�*s unilateral withdrawal. that authority can only come from the un's real decision making power.

of course, the security council. and, as i say, they have renewed the presence of unifil on the ground there every year since 1978. it was most recently renewed back in august. so that mandate is is due to run for the best part of another year. and at the moment unfil is saying it's staying put, as are the member states who are committing troops to it. so at the moment, the war of words will certainly continue as the military operation continues on the ground, but it is a bit of a stalemate. the first group of migrants intercepted in international waters is being taken to italian processing centres based in albania. the italian and albanian governments signed the controversial deal in november, to reduce arrivals in the european union by sea. up to 3,000 men are expected to be taken to the centres each month. children, women and vulnerable individuals will still be taken to italy. mark lowen is our rome correspondent. he explained, what exactly is happening today. the first group of migrants were picked up in international

waters on route to italy, samantha. they've been separated into women and children on one side and men on the other. the women and children are being allowed to disembark in italy. the men, unless they are deemed vulnerable, are being sent to the first of these two reception centres that have just been built in albania. it is the first time that an eu member state has outsourced the migration challenge to a non—eu member state like albania and italy has paid for and will manage two reception centres that it's built in northern albania that could hold up to 3,000 migrants per month, and from those centres, which will be run by the italians, they will be able to make asylum claims to be in italy. if they are accepted, they will be allowed to go to italy if they are deemed to have come from countries that italy sees as safe countries of origin and not therefore eligible for asylum claims, they will be deported. but that is a moot point because the european court ofjustice ruled earlier this month that italy cannot unilaterally designate a country as a safe country of origin, and many of the countries

that italy does see as safe, the european court of justice says are not so. so there are likely to be huge legal challenges from the migrants that are rejected, that they have their claims rejected. and this is going to be a legal minefield for italy. yeah, absolutely. so what will happen to those migrants whose claims are rejected? italy says that they will appeal against any european court ofjustice ruling. i have to say the ec] is their decision was not binding on italy. and italy is doing this for two reasons. first of all, because italy is buckling under the weight of, as they see it, irregular migration. it's the country that receives the highest number of migrants in the european union. i've reported from migrant reception centres there that were built for a couple of thousand migrants. they are holding seven, 10,000. they are bursting at the seams. and so they are building these migrant reception centres in albania to try to relieve the pressure, but also to try to deter migrants from making the crossing to italy, to say, you know, if you are a man and if you are not vulnerable, you're

not going to make it to italy, you will go to albania and then potentially be deported. whether or not that deterrence actually works well, that's another question altogether. still to come on the world today... we have liftoff, the nasa rocket lifts off or whether life can be supported on the around the world and across the uk. this is the world today on bbc news.

king charles iii and queen camilla are on their way to australia for the biggest overseas trip since the king began cancer treatment in february. the visit will include a reception in canberra, but the six state premiers of new south wales, victoria, queensland, western australia, south australia and tasmania have said they're unable to attend. meanwhile, the australian republican movement has launched a campaign branding the upcoming visit as the "farewell tour" of the british monarchy.

this includes a tshirt aimed at sparking debate about the role of the crown in modern australia, but monarchists say it is offensive. here's our royal correspondent, sean coughlan, who told us more about the upcoming visit. the king and queen are going to australia. they're arriving on friday, but even before they've landed, this argument has broken out between supporters of the monarchy and supporters of a republic. and the two sides are already at it. and that t shirt, with its rather blunt message saying tour," shows their side of the case. but today's row is about the monarchists saying that it's insulting that none of the premiers of the six australian states can make it to a reception which is welcoming king charles and queen camilla in canberra. and they have various excuses. they're busy with meetings and things they've got to go to. and the monarchists say that it's actually very rude and petty not to be there, and they should be there for the big event, even though there will be

representatives from states such as governors. 0n the other side of the debate, the republicans are saying this really shouldn't be a case of king charles coming as a head of state. they're quite nice about him as a human being. and they say he's very commendable in his philanthropic efforts. but really, they think a head of state should be an australian and should be someone who's there full time. and so they're campaigning for this to be the last time a monarch will go as a head of state to australia, rather than being a nice friend who comes to see them. so the two sides are set up, and we're waiting to see what the public reception will be, even though we know that politicians might not be at the drinks reception. the queen was a fairly regular visitor, if you can call it that, to australia. and there was a referendum there on the monarchy 25 years ago. what is the support looking like for? i said there was a referendum and the conclusion was that australia would remain a constitutional monarchy, still a democracy, but the king would be the head of state. it sounds as if it's from polls flit about a bit, but the polls

still seem to suggest that most people in australia would rather have a constitutional monarchy rather than a republic. but there are an awful lot of don't knows in the mix, too. and i suppose the royal visit will seek to shore up support for the monarchy. but the king himself, in an exchange of letters at the weekend through buckingham palace, said this is entirely up to the australian people. he's happy either way, but he loves australia. but if they want to have a republic, that's up to them. let's take you to florida now, where nasa has launched a space craft that will study europa, and probe for possible life on the jupiter moon. its icy surface is believed to cover a huge ocean that could contain chemicals needed for primitive life. earlier i spoke to head of space science at the uk space agency, caroline harper, and i started by asking her how long it would take for the space craft to reach jupiter's moon. well, it's not going

to arrive at the jupiter system until 2030, so we're going to have to be pretty patient. and there are a lot of scientists in the uk who've been heavily involved in the science planning for this mission, um, who will be eagerly awaiting that data when it arrives so they can do research with it? it's a really big deal. and the reason is you mentioned it already. um, we know that for life as we know it to exist, there has to be liquid water. and we have good reason to believe that there is a very great deal of water under the icy crust on europa, probably around about twice as much as all the water on earth, on europa. that's amazing. and so this mission isn't actually going to look for life, is it? it's going to look at whether or not there are conditions that could have supported life. that's exactly right. yes. first of all, we need to confirm that the ocean really is there, that the conditions exist. so life needs liquid water. it also needs the right chemistry and it needs

a source of energy. and we know there's a source of thermal energy on europa. so heat is generated when the different layers of the moon get pulled around in a sort of gravitational tug of war withjupiter. um, so that is generating heat energy, and we're pretty sure about the water. and we want to assess the chemicals as well. and then if all of that aligns, then potentially europa could be a place where life could exist. now orchestra conductors are often known for their facial expressions, charisma and passion. but a new conductor in germany has none of those qualities — but does keep perfect rhythm. have a listen to this... a three armed robot has made its debut as an orchestral conductor in germany. wielding three glowing batons, the robot guided three sections of the dresden in a performance of a work specifically composed to harness its unique attributes.

the artistic director of dresden�*s sinfoniker, markus rindt had more on this robotic conductor. it was so extremely exciting to have this project in dresden. it was my idea. this idea is already more than 20 years old, but in this time it couldn't be realised and now it came to life with the help of the technical university in dresden. so what enabled it to come to life eventually? so you had this dream. did you just have to wait for science to catch up with your dreams? yeah, actually it was not possible to take, for example, a robot to to grab the arm and to move it. it was it would have been much to dangerous. dangerous for humans to come too close to a robot. but now it's possible these robots will. the name is co—robot actually for collaborative robot. and i was able to take this arm

and to move it around. and that's why the movements look very organic, like almost like a human movement. so why did you want to do this? what was so different? what did having these three robot arms do that a human couldn't do apart from have three arms, obviously. actually, if you would conduct beethoven or mozart or brahms, it would make no sense to use a robot. a human is always better. this is my opinion. but if you if you commission a contemporary composer for writing a new piece for divided orchestra, you can use one robot in this direction, one in this and one in this direction. so each part of the orchestra has its own robot and can follow it. and these robots, these three arms are capable of moving movements completely independent. and one arm, for example, can get faster and one can get

slower and slower. this this can be done by by a human. and how did the musicians respond to this? yeah, it was actually quite hard because the robots cannot hear. they cannot listen to the orchestra. so the challenge for the musicians was to follow exactly the movements, because if they would get slower and slower, the robot wouldn't correct this. so it would break the performance. but it was fantastic. the audience liked it very much and it looked great. you can see actually the video on the home page of the dresdner sinfoniker there. sinfoniker there you will find a video of this performance. so can you see a point where these robots replace human conductors, or is it something that would just be very, very different and only used on occasion?

i hope not, i hope not. so i am absolutely convinced that a human conductor will be always better in an the classical music. but this is it opens up completely new possibilities for music. let's compare this to the invention of the synthesisers last century. it didn't replace the classical instruments. both exists and it's fantastic. the new, um, the new cosmos for uh, um, synthesisers and electronic music. it's fantastic. and also this, these, uh, robots, they can open up a new world for rhythm. that's the big invention, actually. the bbc has found that revolut, the digital only financial app, was named in more reports of fraud in the last year than any of the major high street banks and other e money services.

the firm, which has more than nine million uk customers and 45 million around the world, says it takes fraud incredibly seriously. marc ashdown reports. my name's chris from the - revolut fraud prevention team. how are you doing today? all right, thank you. this is a recording of a scam call. the fraudster is targeting laura bailey, a businesswoman who had a revolut account. he asked me to go onto the website and do some checks. so it is definitely fraud. what this means is somebody might have your personal - pins and passwords. he claims her account is under attack and convinces her to download software so he can help stop it. he relentlessly kept saying he was trying to help me, that i shouldn't be worried. in fact, he was trying to steal her money. within seconds, my computer was flashing, my screen was flashing, and i was like, "what are you doing?" the scammer stole £24,000 in a matter of minutes. i never thought it would affect me how it did. high street banks have systems that monitor routine customer behaviours,

which should, according to specialists, interrupt suspicious payments. if somebody is suddenly processing a vast amount of transactions and processing a tonne of payments to either a new account, or account that they previously maybe had a few touch points with, it is something that is a red flag, and then banks should typically engage in some way with the customer to ensure that those transactions are, in fact, legitimate. revolut isn't a bank, at least not yet. it's one of a new breed of digital—only financial institutions. you do get a card, but you access services online or via an app. now, customers say they really like this ease and convenience. last year, action fraud received almost 10,000 reports of fraud in which revolut was named. that was nearly 2,000 more than barclays, one of britain's biggest banks, and nearly double the number made about monzo,

a similar—sized e—money firm to revolut. firm to revolut. revolut says it's invested revolut says it's invested heavily in its financial crime heavily in its financial crime prevention team and has robust prevention team and has robust controls to meet its legal controls to meet its legal and regulatory obligations. and regulatory obligations. laura says she reported laura says she reported what happened to revolut what happened to revolut but has not received but has not received any money back. any money back. the premise behind the chat the premise behind the chat from revolut afterwards, from revolut afterwards, that it was all my fault. that it was all my fault. revolut says it can't revolut says it can't comment on laura's case, comment on laura's case, as it's being looked as it's being looked at by the ombudsman, at by the ombudsman, but that each potential fraud but that each potential fraud case is fully investigated. case is fully investigated. revolut has been granted revolut has been granted a provisional banking a provisional banking licence by uk regulators. licence by uk regulators. and his dance within a year, it could become britain's newest fully fledged bank, bringing even tighter bank, bringing even tighter rules and regulations — rules and regulations — too late for customers too late for customers like laura who were scammed out like laura who were scammed out of thousands of pounds. of thousands of pounds. marc ashdown, bbc news. marc ashdown, bbc news. and you can watch more of that and you can watch more of that story tonight on panorama story tonight on panorama at eight oclock on bbc one. at eight oclock on bbc one. the strictly come dancing contestant wynne evans says he's "heartbroken" after the fallout from "a stupid joke that went wrong" on saturday's show. viewers noticed some apparently awkward moments

between the opera singer

and just want to say sorry, it was a sillyjoke. yeah, sorry. wynne evans said he is heartbroken by the fallout. it was a stupid joke that went wrong, 0k? we thought it was funny. it wasn't funny. i feel weird apologising because i feel like i've not really done anything. katya jones said the idea she had been offended is complete nonsense. the bbc says the show�*s welfare team have checked on the pair and will not be taking further action. strictly�*s 20th year has not been a waltz in the park. following complaints about the behaviour of two former professional dancers, the bbc announced steps to strengthen support measures for the programme's celebrities and dancers. with another eight weeks of its 20th series to go, the show will hope eyes are trained on the dance floor, not the headlines. nickjohnson, bbc news. hello. we've had some big contrasts in the weather throughout monday. across much of scotland, northern ireland, northern

england, it's been glorious with plenty of sunshine — a bit of snow here on the tops of the scottish mountains. further south, though, for wales, midlands, east anglia, southern england, we've had extensive cloud, some heavy rain around in the morning, but most of that cleared off. just an odd patch of drizzle left over into the afternoon. but cloud was certainly reluctant to break up. and overnight, this zone of cloudier weather is going to be pushing back northwards across northern england into northern ireland. with that, there will be some hill fog patches and occasional spits of drizzle. as the cloud works in, well, it will become increasingly mild — temperatures about 9—11 degrees by the end of the night. in parts of scotland, though, cold enough for a nip of frost into the countryside. tomorrow, overall, it's quite a cloudy—looking weather picture and, 0k, there might be a few breaks in the clouds to allow some hazy spells of sunshine — probably the best of that across northernmost areas of scotland. temperatures are coming up with a strengthening south to south—easterly wind. we're looking at highs widely15—18 celsius,

so it will turn quite mild. and that mild theme is with us for wednesday. the uk finds itself sandwiched between low pressure in the atlantic and an area of high pressure in the baltic area. strong south to south—easterly winds will be bringing very mild weather conditions our way, but these weather fronts ensure it's not just going to be mild, it's also going to be very wet. now, heavy outbreaks of rain in the forecast for many areas. it could be that parts of east anglia and south—east england stay away from the rain, maybe, and temperatures could still reach the low 20s. however, for most of the uk, more typically, temperatures are going to be into the upper teens. it will be wet and quite a windy kind of day. by thursday, that rain will have cleared out into the near continent, and there could be one or two mist and fog patches to start off the day, but a much better chance of seeing at least a bit of sunshine. a few showers popping up into the afternoon, particularly for scotland and northern ireland, maybe an odd one for western parts of england and wales as well. temperatures still on the mild side — 17 in aberdeen, in newcastle and cardiff, we're up to 18 and 19

for london and for norwich respectively. friday, a very windy kind of day, with gales developing across western areas, more heavy rain on the cards. and into the weekend, it stays wet and windy too, with the heaviest rain and strongest winds in the north—west.

hello, i'm christian fraser. you're watching the context on bbc news. translation: we woke up to the fire over our heads. l 0ur daughters are all burned. look at our situation and what has happened to us. there is a major fear that if they leave the north, they'll never be able to return, and i think the israelis do want them to move out of the north of gaza. we will continue to operate . anywhere we need to in order

to protect israeli lives. the israelis say they've discovered large hezbollah tunnels, heavily equipped tunnels, in the south of lebanon, and of course dozens of rockets are still being fired into israel by hezbollah from lebanon. the un accuses israel of acting with total disregard for civilian life in gaza. tonight, we have a special report on the renewed assault on northern gaza. and we will speak to a former general in the lebanese army about the war in his country. also on the programme — britain is open for business. the prime minister tells global investors this is "a great moment" to back the uk — are they persuaded? and 50 years after a polish firefighter was shot in the back attempting to escape east berlin, his stasi killer is jailed for murder.
