Live now to North America correspondent Shingai Nyoka in washington. What more can you tell us . According to that Press Briefing earlier, the Public Safety department, the Spokesperson Essentiallyjust laid out what happened earlier. He said that at about 7pm local time in maine, they responded to reports of multiple shootings and saw multiple casualties, so these shootings happened at a Bowling Alley as well as a bar and grill, these places are miles apart and thats when they released the pictures of this gentleman robert card, who we understand is a0 years old, but they are referring to him as a Person Of Interest and not a suspect. But as it stands right now it is still a very active situation. They refused to confirm the numbers of people that were dead or injured, theyjust said there were multiple casualties and would update that information as soon as the numbers have been confirmed. But a lot of surprise, a lot of shockin but a lot of surprise, a lot of shock in a community which says that thingsjust dont shock in a community which says that things just dont happen there. We understand that in 2022, there were about 29 homicides in the whole of maine and now were these very high figures. The last Mass Shooting in america or the last major Mass Shooting in america in 2019 saw 23 people killed, the highest in history has been 58, so there is a lot of frustration and concern about what happens now.

That story is developing as we speak, we will keep a close eye, anyone use, we will update you here the bbc. We bring you the latest developments in the middle east now. The israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu has insisted his country will be launching a Ground Invasion of the gaza strip after receiving domestic criticism over its apparent delay. Speaking on prime time television, he said troops were preparing to enter the territory, saying the timing of the offensive would be reached by consensus. Translation we are in the midst of a campaign | for our existence. We have set two goals for the war to eliminate hamas by destroying its military and governmental capabilities and do Everything Possible to bring our hostages home. The un agency running humanitarian operations in gaza says it will take a decision in the next few hours on how much assistance they can continue to provide because of a lack of fuel. Half of gazas two million residents rely on the agency for food. Though limited deliveries of aid has now begun reaching gaza, israel wont allow fuel in fearing it could end up in the hands of hamas. Our special correspondent fergal keane, who is in jerusalem, and has been working with teams on the ground in gaza. And a warning his report contains some distressing images. Each climbing cloud, a marker of destruction. Relentless airstrikes. Thousands of bombs dropped. Hamas started this war. Israel responds with devastating force. It is a story of stunned aftermath and desperate searching. The man was away from his home when the bomb fell. He speaks to his lost loved ones. I wish wed stayed with you. And then a child who survived. Theyre all gone, he tells her. Bbc cameras in gaza captured medics collecting the wounded. The man shouts, nasser his head is open, speaking of the child in his arms. Mahmoud badawi daily faces the killing inflicted from the skies. But there isnt time to stop, much less show his feelings. From one scene of carnage to another. There are the survivors to care for. Translation there are many hard situations. As an ambulance driver, you get accustomed to whats happening, whether its hands, heads or bodies that are cut. In many families now, theres the need to familiarise their children with the morbid practicalities of life in a warzone. Translation i have seen bodies blown apart. You cant identify anyone. So, in case anything happened and they were blown up, i would know them from this bracelet and i can collect their bodies. It is not knowledge any parent wants to impart. In gazas hospitals, there are acute shortages, struggling to Keep Services going as fuel supplies dwindle. 12 year old Ahmed Barahem suffers from Kidney Failure and hes exhausted.

Her father is being freed from the rubble. First the names, then the medics reassurance. Theyre all out, i swear. The Emergency Workers like mahmoud are overstretched, exhausted, knowing that, however much they do, in gaza now, it cannot be enough. Fergal keane, bbc news, jerusalem. Live now to 0samah khalil, a history professor at syracuse university, who specialises in the arab israeli conflict. Good to have you on the programme. First of all, of course, the humanitarian crisis in gaza thats unfolding day by day is very traumatic to see you unfolding, but in terms of this Ground Offensive, Benjamin Netanyahu is insisting it is going to do it but there seems to be a delay. What is she thinking about when this might happen what they are to achieve . Happen what they are to achieve . ,. , achieve . There are several reasons achieve . There are several reasons that achieve . There are several reasons that it achieve . There are several reasons that it hasnt achieve . There are several reasons that it hasnt happened yet and one of those is the hostages. The United States is negotiating with hamas through qatar and attempting to get the hostages release under the same time the us is to deploy additionalforces in the region. The main reason the Ground Offensive has been delayed, there are not enough us forces in the region but also the very real prospect of also the very real prospect of a spill over. There have been active in skirmishes between hezbollah and Israeli Forces in the north of israel and Southern Lebanon and 80 plus days of bombing in gaza. As we have already seen, hamas has still been able to continue firing missiles, they did that earlier today, firing missiles, they did that earliertoday, in firing missiles, they did that earlier today, in the previous day was the greatest number of missiles they fired at israel since this began and included an infiltration into southern israel so still a very fluid environment in and around gaza and even more so in northern israel. So the Potentialfor Regional Spill over and the implications of that for us forces is very real as something that is concerning washington and has served to delay the Ground Invasion. The reality is we have also learned that there was tempted incursions into gaza by Israeli Forces and these have been repelled so there is another aspect here, while will they encounter once they go in with my credit will not be easy. And in the meantime the Un Security Council has again failed to pass a resolution addressing the situation in israel and gaza. Do you have any hope of any progress in terms of the un getting anything through a Security Council session . In the short term i do not, there is a big disparity, is we have seenin is a big disparity, is we have seen in other complex, disparity between what the us once about russia and other countries want. But a ceasefire is needed now and thats something that the United States integrator, the worse they will do is a humanitarian pause but thats not sufficient and on this the United States and on this the United States and israel are an outlier in the international community. Thank you very much forjoining us. Lets speak to the International Spokesperson of the Israel Defence forces, Lieutenant Colonel jonathan conricus. Hes joining me from tel aviv. Good morning to you.

During this night we have had rocket fired from gaza and a day ago there was an attempt by scuba divers to infiltrate via the sea towards an israeli community.

We are definitely most of that in the main theatre of| of that in the main theatre of operations, that is where the main level of enemy activities and that is also where we intend to focus our future efforts. However, hezbollah in the north has deployed and has conducted significant attacks against israel, violated sovereignty conferring anti tank missiles, rockets, mortars, trying to infiltrate, unfortunately caused casualties in israel, and we have responded, but our composure is very defensive, we have not yet taken, we have not yet shifted our posture along the border and we are focusing only on defending, but we are very much aware that hezbollah has been deployed in lebanon and is escalating the situation was of course the United Nations is calling for a ceasefire, saying that aid is desperately needed, in particularfuel that aid is desperately needed, in particular fuel they will not be able to continue operations for much longer especially medical help in hospitals if that is not allowed through the border at rafah. What are you being told about a pause in hostilities to enable that to happen . Reports like these are enable that to happen . Reports like these are very enable that to happen . Reports like these are very seriously like these are very seriously and should be taken seriously if the hospital cannot operate, everybody should take notice. However, i think we are looking at it from the wrong perspective. There is a fuel in the gaza strip, it is stored and controlled by hamas, they have stockpiled it before and they have also stolen fuel both from the un and from private vendors and this has been documented publicly in the gaza strip. The issue here is that the institution is active in the institution is active in the gaza strip, instead of calling things as they are and telling hamas, you should be providing fuel to us, to the hospitals and for the community, theyre asking for help from the outset, this is incorrect and unfortunate because there is fuel in the gaza strip, we know it, we have pointed it out on a map where it is on google earth and you can see that hamas has between 850,000 and 1 million litres of fuel, depending on their priorities, they can of course sent the fuel to hospitals and pump water using generators, or they can continue using it fighting against israel, those are their priorities. We fighting against israel, those are their priorities. Are their priorities. We are ust are their priorities. We are just hearing are their priorities. We are just hearing that are their priorities.

As weve been hearing the Un Security Council has rejected two opposing us and russian drafted resolutions that had sought to pause the fighting between israel and hamas and open the flow of humanitarian aid into gaza. The impasse has highlighted the deep global divide over the war. 0ur North America correspondent nada tawfik sent this update. Calls have grown louder here at the un for a ceasefire. They say that they want not just that but obviously the release of all hostages, the protection of all hostages, the protection of civilians, getting paid in, yet we have seen the Security Council for the fourth time fail to act on the desperate concerns in gaza. Remember, last week the United States vetoed a resolution, i put forward their own draft which called for humanitarian pause and talked about countries right to self defence without meaning israel directly. They put forward the draft today for a vote but was vetoed by russia and china, he said they wanted and china, he said they wanted a ceasefire not his humanitarian pauses and they wear concerned that the us text would give a green light to further escalation. The uae also voted against the draft, saying that any resolution had to treat the lives of israelis and palestinians equally and it had to address things like the forced displacement of civilians. After the text was vetoed by russia and china, russia put forward its resolution for a vote, the second time it has done so. It didnt receive enough votes by council members. The United States slammed russia, say they were registering to score political points and further divide the council. While the uk said that russias draft did not express israels right to defence. What is the council go from here . We have the ten members have stated that they will now work on their own product, they feel that the Security Council has the obligation to maintain International Peace and security, to say the lives of civilians and they say in the days ahead they will put forward the round Rast Resolution for consideration and negotiation. Lets get some of the days other news now. Emergency workers are trying to reach mexicos guerrero state after it was hit by one of the strongest hurricanes ever recorded on the countrys pacific coast.

She says she must keep her memories alive untiljustice is served. Jean mackenzie, bbc news, seoul. Stay with us here on bbc news. Top Business Stories here next. Hello there. Lets take a look at the latest weather for the week ahead. On wednesday, we did have some sunshine around, but it was a very wet start to the day across southern counties of england, particularly through hampshire and the isle of wight. You can see flooded roads there in east cowes on the island, not far from the ferry terminal. And whilst we did have a met Office Amber Warning out for that heavy rain, it was significant. Some parts of the island, in knighton, for example, seeing three weeks worth of october rainfall injust over 12 hours. Looking to the next few days, we hold on to this static pattern, really, of low Pressure Systems after low Pressure Systems bringing outbreaks of rain and their associated Weather Fronts with the Jet Stream Running to the south of us, directing them towards our shores. Here is thursday. Weve got outbreaks of rain from the overnight period working their way northwards towards the North East Of England and across parts of scotland as well. Elsewhere through the midlands, in towards wales and the south, some sunshine but also a number of showers. Same, too, across parts of northern ireland. Temperatures in the south in the mid teens, cooler further north. And then looking into thursday evening, you can see that rain still with us, Tracking North in towards parts of the north east of scotland and certainly across parts of the east and north east, we could well see the rain totals mounting up as we head through the next few days. Elsewhere, its a little bit drier, but there will be some cloud and some outbreaks of rain. Temperatures around 9 10 celsius as the overnight low. To friday, once again, low pressure situated towards the west, sending Weather Fronts our way. A brisk wind around the south west through the channel there and across parts of the north east coast of england and in towards Eastern Scotland as well, where that rain is set to continue. Elsewhere, though, through much of england and wales, some sunshine, also a number of showers, similar across parts of northern ireland. Temperatures once again, 10 12 celsius across scotland, a little bit milderfurther south, in towards the mid teens. So, saturday, its a similar picture. We do have low pressure situated towards the west and outbreaks of rain and Weather Fronts working in from the south across parts of england, in towards wales and northern ireland. For scotland, weve got a wind coming in off the north sea, quite brisk at times, bringing some cloud and further outbreaks of rain. Elsewhere on saturday, weve got some sunshine through parts of the east midlands, in towards east anglia as well, where well see temperatures in the mid teens, perhaps 16 in the london area. On sunday, theres the jet stream once again just running to the south of us and directing areas of low pressure and rain our way. But just look where this Weather Front is here, because that is the Dividing Line between some colder air moving in from the north across parts of scotland, milder weather further south. Exactly where that Weather Front is likely to sit could well pose a few issues because along it, the rain could be heavy and persistent. And if that falls in areas where weve already seen some significant flooding, well, further impacts may well occur. Further north, some sunshine, but a cool north wind. Further south, its milder temperatures once again, into the teens. And then beyond that into next week, well, Thejet Stream is still with us, still feeding in this Conveyor Belt of areas of low pressure. Certainly midweek, that deep area of low pressure could well cause a few issues. But you can see on the outlook there, it is an unsettled picture as we round out the end of october and start november. Thats the forecast for now. Live from london, this is bbc news. Ford and the United Auto Workers union have reached a tentative deal to end a six week strike. But still no agreements at gm or stellantis.
