bushra khalidi, thank you very much forjoining us.e situation today at the rafah crossing, what is the situation there as far as you know it? the crossings have remained closed. we have been hopeful since monday that they may open every other day, but this has not yet happened. we have no indication of when this might happen. yesterday night, we had an indication that this would happen today, and it has not and it is very unlikely to happen this late at night. also, fuel was not part of the deal for humanitarian aid to enter, so i'm not exactly sure how the distribution is going to happen without fuel, i'm not sure how waste water treatment plants that are pouring raw sewage into the sea at the moment are going to operate without fuel, i'm not exactly sure how hospitals are going to operate their generators without fuel. so fuel is an essential necessity, and that needs to also be able to access through rafah when the aid is allowed to come in. we're dealing with an extremely difficult situation... sorry for interrupting you. bushra,

bushra khalidi. thank you for watching this special report on the israel—gaza war.es held by hamas. stay with us here on bbc news. hello. for some places, the flooding situation could get worse before it gets better — not least in eastern scotland, where we have this new red warning from the met office. further rain through the day on saturday, falling on top of what we've already had. this is friday's rainfall radar. the rain was pretty relentless across eastern scotland and also northern england, parts of east anglia, the north midlands, north wales. huge amounts of rain. we've seen widespread flooding and this met office amber warning remains in force through the first parts of saturday morning. but of greatest concern, i think, is this red warning covering parts of angus and southern aberdeenshire — a further 100mm of rain, further significant flooding and a danger to life. amber warnings covering larger parts of eastern and northern scotland as this rain just keeps on coming through the day tomorrow. for england and wales, broadly speaking, a drier day. this ba
