Are needed every day to cover gazas essential needs and that its negotiating for a second aid convoy of 20 to 30 trucks to be allowed into gaza on sunday. Speaking at a Special Summit In Cairo to discuss the israel gaza war, the un secretary general, antonio guterres, said much more needed to be done for the people of gaza than the aid that was currently supplied. Those trucks need to move as quickly as possible in a massive sustained and safe way from egypt into gaza. A 20 truck convoy of the egyptian red crescent is moving today and i want to express my deep gratitude to egypt for the Essential Role that egypt is playing in this regards. Is playing in this regard. But the people of gaza need a commitment for much, much more. It continues delivery of aid to gaza to the scale that is needed and we are working nonstop with all parties that are relevant to make it happen. Here in the us, President Biden says his Administration Remains committed to ensuring that civilians in gaza will continue to have access to food, water and medical care without diversion by hamas. Our correspondent wyre davies has the latest from tel aviv, and a warning his report contains images you may find distressing. Two weeks after the start of this war, the first signs of limited progress and relief entering gaza on the back of a truck. Some 20 trucks in total, not nearly enough according to aid agencies. Aid agencies bringing in basic supplies, food, water, and medicine. There have been an unprecedented number of israeli strikes against hamas related infrastructure, but palestinian Authorities Say 4000 people have been killed in gaza, many of them children.

I didnt realise they were going to take hostages when i was there. Every time i heard or saw the interaction, they were shooting, and shooting to kill.

The nerves in her leg had been damaged by her ordeal. For someone who believed in coexistence, she is now a frightened sceptic, finding it difficult to believe that there could be peace between palestinians and israelis. 0ur correspondent paul adams is injerusalem. He says theres hope more aid will be allowed into gaza now that 20 trucks have been allowed in. So we have not heard anything today to suggest that that this is going to continue yet. Now, israeli officials did say earlier on today that they saw no reason why it shouldnt. But at the moment, i hear nothing, no Concrete Plans for the aid to continue tomorrow. We may wake up tomorrow and find that some of the 150 or so trucks that have been lined up there outside the Rafah Crossing are starting to move and that will be extremely welcome if they do, because as you just heard, this, 20 trucks makes practically no difference at all to the absolutely dire and increasingly dire situation that exists in the gaza strip at the moment. I mean, Aid Officials are saying we need 200 300 trucks a day, particularly if those trucks have to carry water, which is a very bulky thing to transport. So there is a hope, but not yet, as far as im aware, a Concrete Plan for any of this to continue. And an update on the situation on the ground. Leaflets have tonight been dropped over gaza city with a warning anyone who does not move south may end up being seen as what is described as an accomplice to a terrorist organisation. The Israeli Military has said it is preparing to step up its strikes on gaza to put further pressure on hamas militants there. Army spokesman rear admiral Daniel Hagari says the increase is also intended to minimise the danger to Israeli Forces when they enter the next phase of the war. Translation it will minimise the risk to our forces in the next stage of the war and we are going to increase the attacks from today. We will increase the attacks and therefore i call on gaza City Residents to continue moving south for their safety. The father of the freed american hostage who was seized at gunpoint by hamas told the bbc that his daughter is doing well, after being held hostage for nearly two weeks in gaza. Mother and daughterjudith and Natalie Raanan are now the first hostages to be freed since hamass deadly attack on southern israel earlier this month. Originally from illinois, they were in israel visiting family. Hamas says they were released for humanitarian reasons. Live now to our north america corrrespodent, nomia iqbal, who is in chicago where she has been talking to family and neighbours of the released hostages. Nomia, you are in the hometown of the two us hostages who have now been released. What is the atmosphere there . I think its probably an understatement to say that there is a sense ofjoy and relief here. Wherejudith and natalie are from, here in illinois. Many people who have Family Connections there but its important to know that there have been people in the community, its been really hard to comprehend. We are in the neighbourhood where the local rabbi lives and he spoke to the bbc yesterday when we saw the picture Released Ofjudith and natalie. Theres a huge sense of relief. I spoke to the father of natalie in a very short conversation. He was very overwhelmed and he said that he spoke to his daughter for a overwhelmed and he said that he spoke to his daughterfor a couple of minutes and she didnt go into the details of her captivity but he said she is doing really well. He said she is doing really well. He said that she is a tough girl that it will take some time for her to deal with what has happened but she will get through it. He is hoping as is the community here that they will be back by tuesday because that is when natalie turned 18 but we dont know specifically when mother and daughter will return to the us. find daughter will return to the us. And of course, daughter will return to the us. And of course. This daughter will return to the us. And of course, this has been very harrowing for the community. Just tell us more about what they have been going through, how they have been going through, how they have been coping. Been going through, how they have been wing been going through, how they have been caning been coping. Well, this is a very close knit been coping. Well, this is a very Close Knit Community been coping. Well, this is a very Close Knit Community so been coping. Well, this is a very Close Knit Community so people| been coping. Well, this is a very Close Knit Community so people have been coming together, the families have been giving interviews to try and raise the profile of natalie and judith. There have been services, vigils as well, a candlelit vigil yesterday. But, its important to know that they are part of an extended family and that there are other members of the family still missing. They were in the kibbutz in southern israel when they were abducted but also the birthday of natalies grandma who turned 85. She survived the attack by hamas. This is their Family Statements and they say, this is far beyond anything we can express in words. Unfortunately, we dont have the privilege of celebrating their return because we are waiting on the return of about eight other members who remain captive in gaza along with all others held captive there. Of course, people there are so happy that natalie and judith are ok. We have seen those pictures that there are other members of the family unaccounted for and they are hoping they will get news at some point of how they are and if they will be safely returned too. How they are and if they will be safely returned too. Great to talk to ou. Safely returned too. Great to talk to yon thank safely returned too. Great to talk to you. Thank you safely returned too. Great to talk to you. Thank you for safely returned too. Great to talk to you. Thank you for your to you. Thank you for your reporting. As israel readies for its promised offensive against hamas, the white house has published details of the billions of military aid it is asking congress to authorise. In a letter sent friday to the acting speaker of the house of representatives, joe bidens budget chief laid out a raft of measures totalling nearly One Hundred And Six Billion dollars. Joe biden announced the package in a Rare Oval Office address on thursday evening, in which he sought to draw a link between hamass attack on israel, and russias War On Ukraine and asked the American People to keep backing both countries as they defend themselves. Now, the letter fleshes out the details. While the speech was sparked by the israel gaza war, 61. 1; of the 106 Billion Dollars mr biden has requested is, in fact, earmarked to aid for ukraines military. Israels military would get a far smaller chunk, 14. 3 billion dollars. In both cases, the money also goes to replenishing the us� s own stocks of weapons when they are sent to allies. Mr bidens speech also touched briefly on the us� s strategic competition with china in the indo pacific, and the aid package includes Four Billion Dollars to that purpose, half of which would go to taiwan. The package also includes humanitarian aid 9. 2 billion dollars in total for ukraine and for gaza. Finally, on the domestic side, mr biden is asking congress to approve 13. 6 billion dollars for additional security along the us� s Southern Border live now to kay bailey hutchison. Former United States permanent representative to nato, and former United States permanent representative to nato. Ambassador thank you for being with us.

So we glad did the president added that. So we know this is the plan on paper, and i stress on paper.

Thousands of people have taken part in pro palestinian protests in several cities across the world. Police say up to 100,000 people took part in a pro palestinian march in london. Ten people were arrested, most for public order offences. The co organisers, the palestine solidarity campaign, called for an immediate ceasefire in gaza and for full humanitarian aid to be sent in. The march finished outside downing street. Police had earlier warned that anyone showing support for hamas would face arrest. And here in washington on saturday, pro palestinian demonstrators marched from the Washington Monument to the us capitol, calling for an immediate ceasefire in gaza. The protest was one of several planned in cities across the us this weekend. Storm babet has continued to batter many parts of the uk, bringing torrential rain, flooding and severe disruption. There are still 16 Flood Warnings in place across scotland, as well as amber and yellow weather alerts which mean disruptions are still likely in some areas. 0ur Scotland Editorjames Cook has the latest. This is what storm babbit did to brian. Babbit did to britain. The coast guard and other agencies rescued scores of people here. Hundreds of homes and businesses were swamped. It looks worse today. Its just. Itsjust mud. George wilson and his dog bailey got out in time, but returned to find the family home looking like this. Im devastated for myself. Scary. Scary, scary in the dark. Yes, thats the worst thing. A few miles away, theyve been searching for a missing man after reports that he was trapped in his vehicle. Repairs here will take time. And this disruption further afield, too, with trunk roads, bus services and railways all affected. Well, the situation remains very serious and precarious. And we also know that there is always a delayed reaction between improving Weather Conditions and the risk of flood. Another one im stuck, get out of the way this video, filmed near dundee, is a reminder of the dangers that persist with dozens of flood alerts and warnings still in place. In inverurie, the Emergency Services have been going door to door, warning people to be ready in case an Evacuation Order is issued. And this is why. Well, the rain just keeps falling here in aberdeenshire. And this is the result. This is the don, which, as you can see from that picnic table, has already spilled over its banks. And the prediction is that this will get even higher. But tonight, its homes near the river dee, which are flooding. More misery for more families. James cook, bbc news, inverurie. Before we go, lets get an update on the situation in gaza as 20 trucks carrying aid have entered gaza for the First Time Since the Israel Hamas War erupted. 0ur correspondent Rushdi Abualouf who lives in gaza was at the Rafah Crossing and he told us what he saw at the border. We just left Rafah Crossing back in khan younis, the place where most of the, like, all of the trucks that brought today are now in warehouse for the un. Drop in the ocean, everybody here is describing this aid, but its hope that open for 2. 3 million people. A window of hope opened today after transferring those 20 trucks that are carrying essential medical kit, including portable Operation Room that should be placed somewhere here in this hospital soon. The meeting in the un is to make sure two things. One thing is to make the priority for this very small amount of aid. Second is that to make sure that hamas is not involved in distributing or taking any of these. We understand from very early in the morning from a senior hamas source that hamas has agreed to some form of not intervening in this. They say the crossing is open from our side and we are not going to intervene. The un will handle the distribution of what they have today, a very small amount of medicine and food and probably some medical equipment, but very big hope after that, that egypt want a sustained sustainable humanitarian corridor to feed those people who need in this area, especially the people in the southern part of gaza city. We are talking about two thirds of the population in this area. We understand that more than 4,500 trucks on the other side of the border in egypt waiting for that meeting to finish and for the mechanism to to be clear, once everybody is happy with the outcome of that meeting and the outcome of the first shipment, i think tomorrow or after tomorrow, so its a matter of time, we can see more and more goods and food are delivered. But for now we are certain to say that nothing has been distributed. All of the 20 trucks that were loaded back to back on the no mans land between egypt and gaza now in warehouse for day one. We have to say that today was relatively less fighting, less air strike and less hamas rockets into israel. And there is no official ceasefire. We tried to ask hamas about. They said we are not aware of any ceasefire. But we noticed after covering two weeks of this war that today is different today, less fighting today, less fire. And remember for the very latest on the israel gaza war, you can head over to our website. Thats bbcnews. Com. Or check out our app. We have a live page constantly updated by our correspondents in israel, gaza, and around the world. Stay with us here on bbc news. Hello. Although storm babet is now easing away, well continue to see flooding and disruption over the next day or so. Now, lets just take a look at where the rain has fallen over the past 24 hours. Its been heavy and persistent across parts of england, wales and particularly for northern and eastern scotland, too. If we have a look atjust how much rain has fallen since wednesday with this storm babet, many areas have seen between 100 and 200 millimetres. Now for places, thats almost twice the expected monthly rainfall. Thankfully, though, sunday is looking drier with lighter winds, too. So a window of much quieter weather on the way for the rest of the overnight period through into the early hours of monday. Still a few showers around across the far north of scotland, one or two in the west. Elsewhere, two to nine degrees are overnight lows for most of us. Could be a touch cooler first thing in the countryside. But the low pressure thats been such a troublemaker over recent days is drifting away towards the north. On sunday, the isobars become more widely spaced, showing that its not going to be as windy as it has been. The breeze just coming in from a westerly direction. So that will bring one or two showers for northwest scotland, perhaps a few for wales, the southwest of england as well. But as they drift eastwards, they tend to ease away so much drier thankfully for eastern scotland, right down towards east anglia in the southeast, a largely dry day towards Northern Ireland too, and temperatures ranging between around about ten for stornoway to about 16 down towards the london region. But then we will see the next area of low pressure just moving in later on monday. Now this is storm bernard. Its been named by the portuguese Weather Service and its going to bring the next spell of wet and windy weather on monday. So we start off monday on a dry note and mist and some fog patches. Could be a touch of frost, but it clouds over from the south and during the afternoon this area of rain will spill its way in. To the north of that, most places looking dry around about 10 to 16 degrees. But the wet and the windy weather in the south Willjust Push its way a little bit further north. So into tuesday, you can see where were expecting to see some showers around, turning a little bit breezy again towards the east coast, a bit of uncertainty exactly where this rainfall is going to be by this stage, but could be quite unwelcome for some of us, turning a little bit milder as we see The Rain Coming in from the south after that window of drier weatherfor some of us sunday into monday, things really are looking fairly autumnal and unsettled through much of the week ahead. Bye for now. This is bbc news. Well have the headlines and all the main news stories for you at the top of the hour, straight after this programme. Yeah. So if you can just start offjust introducing yourself and, you know. 0k. My name is enrique tarrio, and i am the International Chairman of the proud boys. Chanting whose streets . Our streets whose streets . 0ur streets 0njanuary 6th, 2021, a mob of protesters stormed the us capitol. More than 1,000 people are facing charges. The most notorious is enrique tarrio. Hes banned from everything. Hes the most banned person in the world. Tarrio was the leader of a right wing extremist group. He stands accused of trying to overthrow the us government. Well, the proud boys were central because they were ready and willing to fight. Whose streets . 0ur streets so was tarrio the puppet master, or Something Else . I think he was kind of nerdy when he was younger. All of a sudden with proud boys, he was the fonz. I think hes very interested in his image. I think he might be a charlatan, to be perfectly honest. Tarrio is loved and loathed in equal measure. Can you hear it . Can you hear this . Shouting. Their entire stupid message has become about me and i could not be any happier. Shouting
