that at least ten palestinians were killed in an israeli strike at a school sheltering displaced people in nuseirat camp. israel has bombed the southern suburbs of the lebanese capital beirut for the first time in almost a week. it comes a day after israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu met visiting us officials to discuss a possible deal to end the war in lebanon. let's go live tojerusalem. ben brown is there for us. authorities are also saying that hezbollah rocket attacks have killed seven people in northern israel. that is right, we have had waves of hezbollah attacks. a farmer and for agricultural workers from thailand were killed in a direct hit. then a woman and her adult son were killed in an olive grove near attributes in haifa. seven dead

in total. after those deaths, one of the worst days in the last few weeks in terms of israeli casualties in the north of israel, after that we saw a wave of israeli air strikes in lebanon, especially in the southern suburbs of beirut. they went back they are hitting more targets, hezbollah targets in the southern suburbs of beirut. the lebanese health ministry has said six medics have been killed in multiple israeli air strikes to the south of lebanon and the world health organization in the wake of that has said it is deeply concerned about what it calls rising attacks on health workers in lebanon. if we look at what is happening in gaza, as you mentioned, we had reports of that air strike on the refugee camp in nuseirat in central gas. reports initially

much nearer to a ceasefire either in lebanon or gaza. we did have a couple of us officials here injerusalem who were talking to benjamin netanyahu about the possibility of a truce both in lebanon and in gas, discussing the outlines of that. as far as lebanon is concerned perhaps a 60 day ceasefire initially. no breakthroughs on that, although the us state department says progress has been made. there is a consensus that benjamin netanyahu isn't going to make any dramatic concessions or do any dramatic concessions or do any dramatic concessions or do any dramatic deals or ceasefire agreements before he sees the results of the us presidential election, because there is a feeling here that donald trump would be more supportive to the israeli government than kamala harris. then, thank you. a bbc investigation has revealed that the metropolitan police was told of allegations of sexual assault by

mohamed al fayed a decade earlier than they have acknowledged in recent statements. samantha ramsay was 17 when she reported al fayed in 1995 after he sexually assaulted her in harrods. until now, the met has said its first report dated from 2005. samantha has since died but, as our investigations correspondent daniel de simone reports, her family say the met dismissed her report and told the bbc that multiple women could have been saved from sexual abuse if the force had acted. everybody that met her loved her. she is missed. it is a big hole in our lives. samantha ramsey moved to london in 1995 aged 17 to pursue her dream of working in harrods. her mum and sister say what happened there changed her life. after being sexually assaulted by mohamed al fayed in his office, she told a harrods supervisor.

within a few minutes, the supervisor came back with mohamed al fayed and they both berated her then. it was brief, abrupt, it was quite aggressive. and she came out of that feeling quite threatened. it ended with "you will not tell anyone about this because we know where you live, we know your family." she was immediately fired and quickly told the met she had been sexually assaulted. she passed the police station and went straight in. i know she was told "ok, we will take this down, write it down and add it to a pile of other female names we have who have made the same complaint against mohamed al fayed. nothing will be done, it is your word against his." she left despondent. she had done the right thing, reported it, but we never heard anything back ever. the met said its first report of sexual abuse

by al fayed was in 2005, but sam's report was a decade before, meaning the met knew about him much earlier. i believe that a lot of people, women, could have been saved going through what she went through if the met police had listened to her. the met says there is no history of sam's case on its computer systems, but that paper—based reports from the 1990s might not have been digitised. "while we cannot change what has happened, we do acknowledge trust and confidence is affected by our approach in the past and we are determined to do better." the met said it's found reports from 21 women who accused mohamed al fayed while he was alive. he was not charged. 60 further women have come forward in the past weeks. the handling of al fayed is not a matter of distant history. it also sheds light on how police deal with violence against women and girls today.

sam died in 2007 in a car crash. her family say al fayed's abuse and not being listened to by police altered the course of her life. she was never right after what happened in london. it really changed her outlook on life. we had 12 years of erratic behaviour after that. a suicide attempt. she never really found her place in life. if you've been affected by this story, search �*bbc action line' on the bbc news website for support. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news.

cutting the amount of sugar children get in the womb and as toddlers can protect them against diabetes and high blood pressure in adulthood, research suggests. the study, by the university of southern california, analysed the impact of ending sugar rationing in the uk after the second world war. it found significant differences between babies born either side of the ending of sugar rationing in britain. professor steve turner is the president of the royal college of paediatrics and child heath. he told us more about the differences between those born either side of the sugar rationing. i think that the overall message i would like people to take home is that at all stages we assume it should be exposed to reasonable amounts of a healthy, balanced diet. we are focusing on sugar here. the authors of the paper said about authors of the paper said about a third of the benefit of a low sugar exposure occurs during fatal life, so whilst that is

the best estimate, i think that there is no doubt that in the nine months before we are born as foetuses we are exposed to an environment and resample that environment and it is well described in a huge literature to which this paper now adds, that those exposures not only influence us before we were born, but our health and well—being many decades after well—being many decades after we are born, right the way through until seven or eighth decade. as people in south—east asia get richer, parents are increasingly turning to convenience foods to feed their babies. these packaged products are often promoted as healthy and key to supporting growth, but many of them contain added sugar whereas the same products when sold in western markets have no added sugar. in the philippines, the stakes are high — obesity and diabetes are on the rise, and experts warn that a new type of malnutrition is emerging. suranjana tewari travelled
