the immediate aftermath of an israeli strike on a school in gaza. with only days to go until the us presidential election, we will be talking to a pollster about the state of the race. still born to run — bruce springsteen tells the bbc about life on the road at the age of 75. hello. on monday, a harrowing video emerged from northern gaza of the immediate aftermath of an israeli strike on a school injabalia which had been turned into a shelter for displaced civilians. the footage was filmed by a paramedic, the first on the scene and it showed the pain and grief and panic in the minutes after the blast. nowjournalists working for the bbc have found that paramedic.

this report from jeremy bowen shows graphic images of the moments after the attack. israel's offensive in northern gaza is speeding up. this was a strike on a school used as a shelter east of gaza city. israel denies it's implementing the so—called general�*s plan to clear the north of civilians. but it looks like that. localjournalists and activists are saying that around 40% of civilians in northern gaza — over 100,000 people — have been forced out through two corridors opened by the army since the offensive started. this woman had to leave her children dead under the rubble in beit lahiya. now on her own with strangers, destination — unknown. nevine al dawawi, a paramedic now in gaza city, is viewing a video she filmed as she tried to treat wounded and dying civilians after the israelis attacked a un school used as a shelter injabalia.

we showed part of it on monday. nevine says ten were killed, including children, and many more wounded. she says the army gave them an hour to get out, but the strike came in after only ten minutes. that's her screaming when she saw a neighbour and two sons, all dead. on a stairway, running with blood, nevine only had dressings to hand out. she was the only medic there. a woman said to her, "my children have gone, a son and daughter." we located her injabalia's kamal adwan hospital. translation: i saw my daughter dying with my own eyes. - she was dying in front of me. i couldn't stop it. she was my eldest, my whole life. i couldn't save her. i was wounded myself. by god, they have

broken our hearts. we are exhausted, emotionally drained. we've lost everything. what crime have the children committed? what have they done? what have we done to deserve this? nevine says that for more than two weeks they were under attack and she denies israel's claims that hamas used civilians as human shields. translation: these were 16 days marked| with death, fear and panic. hamas was not using civilians as human shields. they were protecting us and standing with us. northern gaza is virtually cut off from the outside world. as exhausted civilians are forced out, there are reports that the israeli military has taken control of shelters housing tens of thousands still there, detaining dozens of young men who've been taken away. israel don't does not let us in to witness first—hand, we work with brave palestinian journalists already in gaza. all these scenes in gaza are filmed by brave palestinian journalists. israel does not allow us to enter. injabalia, civil

defence men work to free a girl called ghazal. he kept talking to her to keep her conscious. and wrote good girl on her arm. "don't be afraid," he said. "we're here." but there are many reasons to be afraid. the un says this is an intensifying nightmare, condemning israeli attacks on civilians. the israelis say a sharp conclusion to their offensive in the north is possible. they dug ghazal out of the rubble and took her to hospital, gravely wounded. jeremy bowen, bbc news, jerusalem. let's return to the us election now. let's see how the presidential candidates are polling today. if you draw out the overall trends, ratherthan the individual points, you see vice president kamala harris�* lead has been holding steady for the last few days, at about two points above former president donald trump nationally. but the national vote share

won't determine the winner. let's turn to the battleground states which are so often decisive — the seven that were very close last time around and could be decisive in this election. trump's leads in north carolina, arizona, and georgia, at the bottom of the screen, are up a shade on a few weeks ago. other states like nevada, wisconsin and pennsylvania are incredibly tight. the picture has been shifting very slightly in favour of trump?since the start of the month, 7 but neither candidate can bank on victory in any of these states. none of the leads we are seeing are bigger than the margins of error?that come with all polls. 7 with me is scarlett maguire, who is a director at the polling compa nyjl

partners. even though it is an incredibly tight race, things have been shifting ever so slightly towards donald trump. also, there are some underlying metrics, so favourability and approval ratings, things seem to be edging towards donald trump. i5 to be edging towards donald trum -. , . to be edging towards donald trum. , ., , , , trump. is that because there is a sense that — trump. is that because there is a sense that kamala _ trump. is that because there is a sense that kamala harris's i a sense that kamala harris's momentum has stalled abates? she has incredible momentum when she first entered the race. there was an 80% chance of trump winning just before joe biden dropped out of the race. when harris took over the democrat ticket, that went back to pretty much 50—50. now the race is tight, but leaning in favour of donald trump. one thing that we hear a lot from voters and focus groups is that they don't feel she has given them enough of a policy

platform or articulating enough how she will change.— platform or articulating enough how she will change. there was this feeling _ how she will change. there was this feeling with _ how she will change. there was this feeling with hillary - this feeling with hillary clinton, that she could win the popular vote but not the electoral college, therefore a knock at the presidency. it can be hard to _ knock at the presidency. it can be hard to understand - knock at the presidency. it can be hard to understand from i knock at the presidency. it can be hard to understand from a l knock at the presidency. it can l be hard to understand from a uk perspective, but the popular vote in the us does not determine the outcome and that is something we have seen increasingly, that the democrats are at a deficit in terms of the electoral vote —— electoral votes. you would be wanting to be leading the polls by three or four points to be confident on the electoral votes. my company has a 65% chance of donald trump winning currently. it has moved. it has been taking up from 50 since late september. we did have

harris leading just after the presidential debate. most people now have a very tight race, but one that is going in favour of trump. we race, but one that is going in favour of trump.— favour of trump. we talked about the _ favour of trump. we talked about the margin _ favour of trump. we talked about the margin of - favour of trump. we talked about the margin of error l favour of trump. we talked | about the margin of error for these polls. there have been big mistakes in the polls before. , ., big mistakes in the polls before. , . ., , before. yes, and that is making eve one before. yes, and that is making everyone very _ before. yes, and that is making everyone very nervous. - before. yes, and that is making everyone very nervous. 2020 i before. yes, and that is making i everyone very nervous. 2020 was a huge polling error. 2016 were subject to one, too. individual swing states have been subjected crazy margins of error. there is some worry that polls have over corrected and are overstating trump as my cleat. i'm not sure that will be the case, but it is keeping a lot of pollsters at night. would you say that harris needs a bigger national advantage and the polls to really clinch this? because it isjust the polls to really clinch this? because it is just not big enough at the moment? this? because it isjust not big enough at the moment? yes, i think s0- _ big enough at the moment? yes, i think so. there _ big enough at the moment? yes, i think so. there is _ big enough at the moment? yes, i think so. there is a _ big enough at the moment? yes, i think so. there is a chance i i think so. there is a chance she could run an incredibly efficient election where she is

able to do better in the seven swing states that matter, but i think you would want more than she has got at the moment to be comfortable. she has got at the moment to be comfortable-— comfortable. with american elections. — comfortable. with american elections, you _ comfortable. with american elections, you have - comfortable. with american elections, you have millions comfortable. with american i elections, you have millions of people voting in all of these states, but it could come down to just a few tens of thousands of voters in these few battleground states. absolutely. my hunch is that this election will be decided by tens of thousands of votes in just a handful of states. everyone is looking at pennsylvania. that could be the tipping point state. 20,000 votes could decide the outcome of the election from a few countries in pennsylvania. thank you so much forjoining us with your fascinating analysis.

there is lots of news and analysis on the bbc website. here on bbc news we are running a new initiative where where we are asking you to tell us the stories you want us to cover. �*your voice, your bbc news' will allow you to have your say via whatsapp, email or by visiting the bbc website. you can see the details on screen now. sophia from london called nicky cambell�*s phone—in show asking bbc news to look into the reality of those suffering from sickle cell disease, like her 36—year—old son. the sickle cell restricts the cells' sickle, so they don't carry the same amount of oxygen as normal blood, which means that there are certain parts of his body, namely the hips, that don't get the oxygen, so over the years they just disintegrated. they just worn away. so he had the first

operation... backtrack. he was told when he was 18 that that sickle cell has caused avascular necrosis, which is the deadening of the hip joints and that he's going to need a hip replacement, but it's best if he puts it off as long as possible because of his age. he's still young, right? so he's put it off. he's suffered since then, suffered, suffered, suffered and now finally this year they did the first operation. but you're supposed to take it easy and exercise the new hip, right? but the old hip, all the pressure is going on the old hip. basically, there's no joint there now. all this and we've been told that we should have done it earlier. well, like, who do you listen to? you put your trust in what you're being told and then

years later you find out, no, that was the wrong information. that is one example of you telling us what stories you want to cover. all the details are on the bbc website. lots of people are getting in touch. lots of people are getting in touch. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news.

kurdish pkk militants have claimed responsibility for the attack on a turkish defence company that killed five people. the group said it had targeted turkish aerospace industries, which is a state—owned firm, making arms and aerospace products. that was on wednesday. it said it target date because of the

weapons that have produced had killed thousands of kurds. the turkish government had previously implicated the pkk in the attack, claiming it adds proof of the involvement the group. the baby monkey at the heart of a global monkey torture ring has been released back into the wild. taken from the forest in indonesia when she was just days old, mini's owner tortured her and filmed it for sadistic customers, mainly in the us and the uk. she and another monkey who was being held with her were rescued after a bbc eye investigation. rebecca henschke, who spent over a year tracking down mini and her torturers, went along for her release taken from the forest as a baby, mini's owner tortured her and filmed it for sadistic customers in the us and the uk. if you want to see the mini... after a bbc investigation exposed the ring, mini was rescued and taken

to a sanctuary. after two years of rehabilitation at this sanctuary, she's ready to be released. back to the forest, mini. happy tears. because finally they're going. finally they're going. yeah. it's been a struggle, but worth it. worth it. after being driven through the night to the coast, mini and her adopted family are being taken to a protected island reserve. this is a pristine forest—covered island which humans are rarely allowed to enter, so it's hopefully going to be a safe home for mini. everyone has to carry a monkey. i'm tasked with taking mini. it's ok, mini.

the last step in the journey home. mini's moving around a lot now. maybe she can hear the other sounds of the like wild monkeys. sounds of the forest? yeah? it's not long now. to get mini used to being back in the jungle, in the wild, she's going into this temporary cage. yeah. let's do it. baby. hey, yo. hey, yo. hey. hey. yo, mini. yo, mini. yeah. yeah. that's going to keep her safe after recovering after recovering from thejourney, it's time for the release. from thejourney, it's time for the release. there she goes. there she goes. she's so curious and brave. she's so curious and brave.

i feel like we are seeing i feel like we are seeing the beginning of a big revolution. this new area of science is called engineering biology, and it's all about harnessing and adapting the power of nature to produce all sorts of things. governments are particularly interested in it because it has the potential to produce many of the things we need in a sustainable way.

we are seeing some sunshine coming in from the south—west. a change in the weather here. we have an area of low pressure close to the south—west. that's going to pull away this weekend. and the sunshine is coming in behind this weather front, which is bringing with it a little bit of rain. ahead of that, there is a lot of cloud and temperatures are going to be typically 15, maybe 16 degrees, but with some sunshine ahead of that rain. in east anglia, temperatures are likely to reach 19 or 20 celsius. there's the weather front, there's what's left of that rain that continues to push northwards, pushing the cloud northwards. clearer skies following from the south, but in the south—east and across east anglia. later in the night we're going to find more cloud and maybe even a few spots of rain. otherwise most of the rain is in the far north west of scotland. still pretty mild overnight, just not quite as mild as it was last night. heading into tomorrow, in between these two areas of cloud, there will be some sunshine just going to get wetter though

towards the north—west during the day the breeze picks up and across eastern parts of england we'll see more cloud. probably not a great deal of rain mind you, but it will be cooler underneath that cloud. temperatures generally not quite as high as today. still mild though, 1a to 16 degrees on saturday afternoon. as we head overnight well, we've got thatwweather front pushing down to the northwest bringing some rain. there is an extra hour of sleep because the clocks go back, of course, and then heading into sunday, coming in from the atlantic, we're going to find thickening cloud to bring with it some rain. but we'll start off quite sunny for many parts of the country, and it's going to be a much sunnier day for the eastern side of england this time. but we'll see cloud increasing in northern ireland, some rain coming in here into western scotland and then heading over the irish sea later on in the afternoon. temperatures though a little bit lower on sunday, nearer normal for the time of year around 11 to 1a celsius. but into next week it's looking very quiet actually. a bit of rain still left perhaps on monday across the south, but high pressure is then going to build across the uk. we're going to find a stronger wind picking up for scotland. that could give

a little bit of rain, but otherwise we're drawing in mild air. so these are the temperatures into next week. so we're looking at around 1a to 16 degrees. for many parts of the country it will be dry with a little sunshine.
