Let me take you first of all to eat new york and show you the live pictures coming into the bbc. We are expecting the next few minutes to hear from the un expecting the next few minutes to hearfrom the un Secretary General. To new york. Also talking about the plight in gaza. You can see all the plight in gaza. You can see all the journalists assembled there. We are expecting to hear Antonio Guterres in the next couple minutes. That room beginning to fill up as all the details on the ground continued to get weaker and weaker on this day five bleaker. The update from the idf, talking about 1200 people being killed and many, many more being injured. They expect those numbers to also be up as they go through different parts of Southern Israel as they get to those places and actually find what has happened on the ground. Just as soon as Antonio Guterresjust happened on the ground. Just as soon as Antonio Guterres just to speak, we will obviously return there to new york. We will also regulate his details coming in here to london thatjake mollo, a british that jake mollo, a british citizen thats been missing, is confirmed to have died in israel. The uk National Jake marlowe now confirmed dead in israel. Repatriation plans are now put in place. This 26 year old was believed missing under the hamas attacks on saturday. He was working as a Security Staff at the Music Festival during the god gaza border. Weve been seeing these details and confirmation coming in from so many different capitals over the past few days. Letsjust different capitals over the past few days. Lets just take stock in terms of where we are on day five because the Gaza Health Ministry now says israeli air strikes have killed at least 1100 people, more than 5000 injured. It comes as israel Prime Minister and the Opposition Leader have agreed to form an Emergency Government to manage the war. That will be for the sworn in on thursday. The territorys only power plant stopped working. Israeli troops are preparing for a Ground Invasion. Well, those were some of the strikes from israeli artillery. Those units are firing towards gaza. Just part of the build up for the possible Ground Invasion. Let me take you to some of the latest drone images we have from gaza showing the destruction the air strikes have brought entire neighbourhoods. Israel says that more than 1200 israel says that more than 1200 israel these are now known to have been killed in the attacks and shock waves continue after details emerge from the kibbutz. It is simply a massacre, one leader said. James lever really is in the has been under fire since saturday, meeting local people who have been held hostage in their homes.

You can see from that video clip that mr cleverly had to run into a building for protection as those sirens were heard ringing in the background. So, some of whatjames heard ringing in the background. So, some of what James Cleverly has been going through, one leg of the initial bits of diplomacy that are going on. We know the us Secretary Of State is also heading to the middle east today. Antony blinken plans to visit israel first and then go tojordan. The us secretary of defence, lloyd austin, has been meeting with nato allies in brussels and said americas support for israel will not affect its commitment in ukraine. ,. , commitment in ukraine.

Lets talk about the diplomatic effort with partners. Lets talk about the diplomatic effort with our partners. Lets talk about the i diplomatic effort with our North American correspondent Barbara Plett usher. Are you hearing anything about what message he goes with . Yes, his message is going to be one of support and solidarity. Hes not going to mediate a cease fire or restraint. In the same tone weve heard from president biden, who said the us stood strongly with israel, that if there had been under attack like that in america, The Americans would have responded swiftly, decisively and overwhelmingly. There is talk with the israelis about respecting the rule of law and trying to avoid protecting civilians. I think the feeling here is very much they are expecting a forceful response and it is justified and they are standing with israel on it. Thats the primary reason i think for his visit. But also, there are these hostages, some of whom are american. Among 20 americans are missing and some are believed to be held hostage in gaza. That is also a focus of the united states. President biden said hes asked his team to share expertise and intelligence. Ithink asked his team to share expertise and intelligence. I think they are working quite closely. But many of these hostages are dual israeli american citizens. There are many Palestinian Americans as well, so concern for palestinian citizens is being expressed to us officials. But again, the administration has made his position very clear on this. The administration absolutely clear, just like Joe Administration absolutely clear, just likejoe biden talking about the evil that had struck on saturday. The former uk foreign secretary William Hague wrote in the times his support for israel and the barbaric attack. But cautioning, warning israel not to overreact, not to fall into the trap laid by hamas. Are there any cautionary voices that youre hearing in the us . If are there any cautionary voices that youre hearing in the us . Youre hearing in the us . If were talkin youre hearing in the us . If were talking about youre hearing in the us . If were talking about the youre hearing in the us . If were talking about the us youre hearing in the us . If were| talking about the us government, youre hearing in the us . If were talking about the us government, the cautionary voices of this point are being directed towards the region. The diplomacy has very much to involved calling all the regional allies or partners or different governments who might have contacts with hamas, particularly with regards to its hostages. Especially those who have relationships with iran and hezbollah, sending messages that there should be no. That hezbollah should notjoin the fight. Their focus has been hezbollah should notjoin the fight. Theirfocus has been on not broadening the conflict and showing support for israel after this attack. The voices about israeli restraint are not very loud officially, although they might start to get much more pressure once the Campaign Starts on this Ground Invasion on the casualties. We did have a statement from the National Security council head, Jake Sullivan yesterday, that americans were in contact with the egyptians about possibly a safe passage through rafa for civilians to be able to escape. Theres no indication that that has on anywhere. I think the egyptians would have some concerns about getting hundreds of thousands of palestinians in wreck of the dash in refugee camps. That will not necessarily be an obvious outcome in refugee caps. Necessarily be an obvious outcome in refugee cape in refugee caps. Arbour plitt usher, life for us in in refugee caps.

That lies with hamas, and israel must have lies with hamas, and israel must have the lies with hamas, and israel must have the right to defendant herself. Defend have the right to defendant herself.

Ithink hamas should immediately release these hostages because israel has a right notiust hostages because israel has a right notiust to hostages because israel has a right notjust to defend hostages because israel has a right not just to defend herself, but take actions not just to defend herself, but take actions to not just to defend herself, but take actions to ensure that hostages are returned actions to ensure that hostages are returned.

We we thought that was due to start about ten minutes ago, running slightly behind. You can see the journalists. We will obviously cut back to new york and bring you the thoughts. Lets spend the next few minutes looking at the situation on the ground in gaza. And the medical situation. Lets speak to. Ghassan abu sittah is a british palestinian doctor based in london who has gone over to help. We are very grateful you spared us time. I would like. Would you describe what youre experiencing . So, since i got to the hospital yesterday morning, the area. Sound cuts out yesterday morning, the area. Sound cuts 0ut apologies. As you can see, that lying to the doctor in gaza has frozen. Well try to reestablish that and return to it. Throughout the course of the day, weve been hearing from a variety of medical staff there on the ground. Talking about being overwhelmed in hospitals. Talking about medical supplies running out. I talked to a Doctor A Couple of hours ago who said they had about four days of power left there at the hospital he was working at. All of them talked about the number of casualties coming in. Just a stream that never ends with a quote from one of the doctors. So many of them, children, the authority saying a little earlier that 60 of the injured are women and children, and that is what they are seeing there in the hospitals. Apologies we lost that line. Its an important part of what were trying to cover, so we will try to return to that. Im going to take you to the live shots first of all, because lets show you the pictures in the gaza strip. Light has fallen and those strikes going on, and there you see the scene with day five, the strikes there that have come in. 200 overnight. Weve seenin have come in. 200 overnight. Weve seen in the days that there have been relentless strikes there in gaza. 0f been relentless strikes there in gaza. Of course, weve seen rockets being fired out from hamas, those rockets that landed in ashkelon a little earlier. As the camera pans around, it finds pockets of fires they are finding. You can just hear in the background some of the sounds that have become the backdrop to life there on the gaza strip. Those are just some of the pictures that are just some of the pictures that are coming into us live here on bbc news. Around the world the uk. Lets look at some other stories making news. Flights have resumed at londons Luton Airport after it was closed for much of the day. A large fire caused the partial structural collapse of a Multistorey Car Park at one of the airports terminals forcing the suspension of all flights. Around half of todays scheduled departures have been cancelled, affecting thousands of passengers. The labour party says children as young as four should learn Financial Literacy and the learning of budgeting and Currency Exchange rates would be part of changes to the teaching of maths if labour were to win the next election. The proposals were unveiled by the shadow Education Secretary at the final day of the annual labour party conference. A watchdog report has found Wandsworth Prison in Southwest London is � unsafe and inhumane. The independent Monitoring Board blamed underinvestment in the site and said the findings reflected the failures of the Prison System as a whole. The report was written before the alleged escape of the prisoner Daniel Khalife last month. Youre live with bbc news. Lets cross that you and secondary general.

I call for the military leads of all is really hostages held in gaza. Civilians must be protected at all times. International humanitarian law must be upheld. 120,000 palestinians are sheltered all across gaza. Premises in hospitals, schools and clinics must never be targeted. Un staff are working around the clock to support the people of gaza, and i deeply regret that some of my colleagues have already paid the ultimate price. Crucial life saving supplies, including fuel, food and water, must be allowed into gaza. We need rapid humanitarian access now. I want to send egypt thank egypt for its Construction Access for the crossing and to make the shared part available for airport available. Every moment counts. Thank you. Studio we saw the un Secretary General there just urging home on the ground and looking to secure those un sites were so many people are housed in taking shelter. Schools and clinics. He said they must never be targeted. Well reflect on that a little more in the next while, but we lost that line gaza. We are talking to a doctorjust line gaza. We are talking to a doctor just a line gaza. We are talking to a doctorjust a moment or two ago, lets reestablish that line and hear a little. Apologies that we lost that line. You were just beginning to describe what you are experiencing at the moment. Can you just described for our viewers what it is like where you are . 50.

So, since i came to the it is like where you are . So, since i came to the hospital, it is like where you are . So, since i came to the hospital, the it is like where you are . So, since l i came to the hospital, the bombing in the area around the hospital has not stopped. The buildings shake every few minutes with the concussion of the bombing. The Hospital Grounds themselves have become a refugee camp. Thousands of families have flocked to the Hospital Compound trying to escape the bombing and trying to find sacred sanctuary. The hospital has a capacity of around 700 and its completely full. We already are behind in terms of being able to take patients to the Operating Room because only the most critically wounded are able to make it into the Operating Room. We have over 50 patients waiting to go into the 0r. The continuous influx of severely wounded patients, particularly children around 30 a0 are children around 30 a0 are children around 30 a0 are children means the hospital has been going around the clock. And this comes at the end of 15 years of siege which is at the Health System on its knees. With a500 wounded so far, the supplies in the hospital are being depleted. And with this total siege, we are unable to replace them. Everything that you ask for, there are things that are missing that are basic for treating these kinds of wounds. Missing that are basic for treating these kinds of wounds. Were seeing ictures these kinds of wounds. Were seeing pictures from these kinds of wounds. Were seeing pictures from one these kinds of wounds. Were seeing pictures from one of these kinds of wounds. Were seeing pictures from one of the these kinds of wounds. Were seeing pictures from one of the hospitals. L pictures from one of the hospitals. Exactly as you described in terms of the numbers, the overwhelming scenes that youre dealing with. You talk extraordinarily calmly, but this must be immensely distressing. I mean, particularly when youre dealing with children, when you have children yourself, its absolutely heart wrenching. Ive been to gazas previous wards since 201a through 2021, and we see a child, you know this is a life thats going to be spent in further surgery. Reconstructive surgery as this body grows. These children, like this child that i treated today i was in the old are today with a six year old, beautiful six Year Old Girl with horrific facial injury. Her mother was also a doctor and she was killed when their house was targeted. You know that this beautiful girl is going to spend the rest of her childhood well into aduu rest of her childhood well into adult years meeting Reconstructive Surgery because of the severity of this injury that she sustained. Last night, last case i did was an 11 euros boy, similar injury. 11 year old boy. Some are still operating, some have lost family. This is only day four. Thats a devastating thing. The Health System is at Breaking Point and we are at the beginning of this conflict that seems to have no end in sight. No respite in terms of humanitarian glory door.

Let me ask| you about how long those hospitals can operate in the way were seeing. I was talking to another Doctor A Couple of hours ago who said they were probably only about four days worth of fuel to give them power in the hospital. He was also worried about basic medical supplies. Where you are, what is the situation . Because we know theres a siege, we know that food and water and electricity have been cut. How long can they keep power going so you can operate there . Operate there . Well, were now completely operate there . Well, were now completely dependent operate there . Well, were now completely dependent on operate there . Well, were now completely dependent on the i completely dependent on the generator. I think they are going to start rationing so there Electricity Supply only goes to the Operating Rooms and to the icu. That will dwindle and dwindle. Then you start having to make those difficult decisions about which clinicians to take the Operating Room as it becomes a more scarce commodity. In terms of consumables, basic stuff yesterday, we saw a 1a Year Old Girl with 70 burns and one of the things that you have to do is scrub the area with antiseptic solution to prevent infection. That is what kills major germs. We didnt have that. We centre to the Intensive Care Unit and use regular soapjust as an attempt to get through the day. Everything is in short supply. Ive been told by paediatric units have run out. In the operating suite, use the jars of Antiseptic Material used to re sterilize. 0therwise, disposable instruments like airways and tubes, thats a sign that people are starting to run out and starting to reuse whats not supposed to be used more than once. Ive only got about a5 seconds left, so apologies that this answer needs to be brief. Weve for the israeli Prime Minister saying this is only the beginning.

The americans confirmed the death of at least 22 us citizens. Those are some of the latest. And im back with more here injust a moment. Hello. For some of us over the last few days, it has felt as if summer has been trying to cling on deep into 0ctober. But autumn is going to be arriving over the next few days. In fact, already feeling quite autumnal in the northern half of the uk. In fact, already feeling quite autumnal in the northern half of the uk. Here, some sunshine, but some rather cool air working its way in from the north west. Conversely, South Westerly Winds bringing warm and muggy air down towards the south, and the dividing line between those air masses is this Weather Front bringing some outbreaks of rain across parts of wales, the midlands, into east anglia and lincolnshire. Particularly heavy rain i think across parts of west wales with the risk of some flooding and some disruption. To the south of that, often quite murky but warm and humid. Further north, something cooler and fresher. 12 degrees, for example, in aberdeen and glasgow, some sunshine, scattering of showers, the wind slowly easing a little bit in the north of scotland. Now, overnight, ourweatherfront moves a little bit further southwards and then tends to stall across southern counties of england, parts of wales and the midlands very mild here, 16 degrees in plymouth overnight. Compare that with two or three degrees for many spots further north. But here, we will see some sunshine to take us into tomorrow morning. A scattering of showers, particularly in the northwest of scotland. This band of cloud never really clearing the south of england or south wales. We could see some pockets of rain and drizzle at times. Some warmth trying to cling on here, but for most, a cooler feel 17 degrees there for london, 13 for belfast, 12 degrees in glasgow. But instead of clearing through, that Weather Front actually tries to push northwards again during thursday night into friday, looking very wet for parts of england and wales. At the same time, this cold front pushes its way into scotland and northern ireland. So quite a complex look to the Weather Chart on friday, but we will see some outbreaks of rain, particularly across england and wales. But across scotland and northern ireland, we see sunny spells and some showers. Some of those showers could start to turn wintry over the very highest ground as some colder air starts to dig its way in. And thats the story for the weekend. We finally lose all of these Weather Fronts, all of us get into this cold north westerly wind. If anything, temperatures by day will be a touch below the average for the time of year. And at night, weve got the chance for quite a widespread grass frost. Bye for now. This is bbc news. The headlines Israel Pounds Gaza for a fifth day as gazas only Power Station runs out of fuel.
