let's head to downing street.s been a few hours, but rishi sunak has been talking about the uk's involvement. tell is more about what he said. the messaue tell is more about what he said. the message out — tell is more about what he said. tue: message out of tell is more about what he said. tte: message out of downing street has been consistent throughout the day. he has condemned the attack, called it reckless, but also urged calm and restraint, similar to other allies, that has been the message from the us also. part of it is this huge concern that there is the risk of escalation in a region already going through a volatile war. it has been confirmed by downing street that it was part of what it called an international co—ordinated effort in defending israel, and he recently gave us a few more details out of downing street of exactly how the uk participated in that operation. last night, iran launched a _ in that operation. last night, iran launched a barrage _ in that operation. last night, iran launched a barr

now we'll be back live in downing street in just a moment. rse, the president of rwanda has just arrived. walking down the red carpet rolled out for him by rishi sunak. it's interesting actually. already you've been getting involved on gbnews.com forward slash your say the new place for your comments and views throughout the programme. already neil has said kagame is here to ask for money and sunak will probably agree. so a little bit of scepticism there about that meeting and that red carpet in downing street. yes. >> and jemma hopes they get down to business right away and don't waste too much time posing for the cameras, but bring the cameras, but we'll bring you the cameras, but we'll bring you the latest from meeting. the latest from that meeting. but that, bates we but before that, alan bates we all know alan bates. he's led the campaign for justice all know alan bates. he's led the campaign forjustice in all know alan bates. he's led the campaign for justice in the post office scandal. he had his story turned an itv drama . story turned

let's head to downing street.e saull. rishi sunak has been talking about the uk's involvement. take us through what he has been saying? he: confirmed that british fighterjets were directly involved in the inception of these missiles and rows that have been sent from iran. there were already british fighterjets operating in iraq and syria as part of an ongoing campaign to degrade the islamic state group. the prime minister said that additional planes had been sent and a number of drones were shot down. he wouldn't be any more specific than that. but the fact that the raf has been involved at all, of course, pretty significant. whenever there is military intervention overseas, it is a major decision to any prime minister to make it so we won't have taken a slightly. although he was keen to stress that this was part of a much wider internationally concerted effort to deal with this attack from iran. let's have a watch of what he had to say. last night, iran launched a barrage of missiles and attack drones across the

behind me, i am on downing street _ toward israel.g street where _ toward israel. behind me, i am on downing street where that - toward israel. behind me, i am on l downing street where that interview has taken place with the prime minister. confirmation from him that british jets took down a number of attack drones as he put them. he wouldn't put a specific number under but i think it is significant, the idea that british military personnel were involved in that operation, coming into conflict with missiles and drones sent by the iranian regime. this is part of the uk government says an ongoing operation in iraq and syria which has been countering the islamic state group. they have been a number of sorties by fighterjets, their numbers have been bolstered by dealing with this. he said that some of those missiles may have ended up injordan too which is another ally of the uk. the key message was de—escalate, involved in this meeting of g7 leaders later on via video call, the emphasis will be on how to move forward diplomatically, draw

some mps believe the foreign office is ready to do just that but claim downing street is resisting.ls deny this, and the former home secretary, who is visiting israel, says number ten should stick to its guns. we owe it to israel to stand with them. i think that we should maintain this military relationship, from which we benefit just as much as they do, and i think that it would be a tragic shame if we were to walk away from our closest ally in this region. these lethal air strikes are disrupting more than just aid supplies to gaza. they're also causing tensions within israel's allies, and the government has a difficult decision to make. james landale, bbc news. james landalejoined me in the studio earlier to discuss this. the key thing to understand is this is a formal process, this isn'tjust a political decision, the ministers sitting round saying what shall we do? there is a formal technical, an almost quasi—judicial process here. so what happens at the moment is a key cell of officials in the foreign office are assessing the information, gathering information, talking to the is

so downing street didn't know anything about it at all. ix people in the labour party knew anything about it at all. wes streeting, the shadow health secretary, who's obviously interested in this because of his links to the nhs, said this morning to us he'd met him in the last couple of days. dan poulter told me that he'd been thinking about it for the last couple of months. so the circle has been tiny — because gossip isn'tjust the way of the world in westminster, it also has power and currency, right? "who's talking to who and about what?" so this is something that has been executed by the labour party, i think, really quite... been executed by them very, very well, but defections are so rare, partly because, i think it is worth saying, politics is a very emotional thing. it's very tribal, it's very emotional. to say to your colleagues, "i've had enough of you," when you've walked through... think about what has happened in politics in the last ten years. it has been intense and crazy. they've walked through the fire together, and actuall

the sign their downing street.lent gestures from both sides here on this protest, some extremely strong language and accusations being made by both sides as they march towards downing street, where those speeches will be taking place. also in the last five minutes, we did see someone get arrested on parliament square. one of the pro—israeli demonstrators was cuffed and led away from the square towards the vans. here and we spoke to those around him. they said he'd been arrested for threatening violence and the gestures he was making. those around him contested that he should be arrested, as this protest continues, now, we're seeing many signs saying weeds , amun many signs saying weeds, amun justice. we've also seen a significantly large placard of khamenei the supreme, the supreme leader of iran from 1979, when the islamic revolution took place in iran that led to the formation of the quds day marches, which we're seeing today. they started in 79 after the iranian revolution took place. the community security trus

the concern in downing street _ little earlier. the concern in downing street has - little earlier.ay appears to have been the critical moment, and it was at that point that the prime minister summoned key ministers to discuss a response, they came up with a plan, and that led to the raf getting involved in shooting down some of those drones last night. now, the uk response has been in line with its international partners, but there is no doubt that this is a significant moment in london, the government here does have the ability to make these decisions on its own, it doesn't need the approval of parliament, and parliament here has not been sitting over the past couple of weeks, so they wouldn't have been able to ask anyway. but the prime minister has made it clear that the priority now is de—escalation. this is what he told broadcasters earlier. last night, iran launched a barrage of missiles and attack drones across the middle east towards israel. this was a dangerous and unnecessary escalation which i've condemned in the strongest terms. thanks to an international, coordinated ef
