I think if youre older you will probably hate it without even listening to it there something. You know, the fact that all four members have to be in the same room in orderfor the beatles members have to be in the same room in order for the beatles to create a song. But for the younger generation, the teenagers and 20 year olds that are just getting into beatles music for the first time, they are already used to knowing about and having some of their Favourite Music currently being produced by Artificial Intelligence. In fact theres a number of studies that have shown that almost 30 of the Billboard Hot 100 songs are using ai technology, either to help out with the Song Writing Orfinishing off lyrics or p0p writing orfinishing off lyrics or pop car progressions. So this new generation of music lovers are already used to having ai in their lives anyway. Or chord progressions. In fact theyre using it on a daily basis without even knowing about it because Artificial Intelligence are the ones that show us what is being shown to us on social media. 0n, you know, songs that if you like this, maybe you will like this on the spotify under the music streaming services. So theyre kind of use to this Technology Being used. And for the older audience, Technology Being used. And for the olderaudience, ijust Technology Being used.

Look, theres nobody on the planet that cares more about the legacy of the beatles than Paul Mccartney and his stamp of approval alone, his work on the sun, should be enough for those beatles fans that might be on the fence in deciding whether or not its official song,it deciding whether or not its official song, it absolutely is an official song.

Switching focus now and giving you the very latest on the conflict in the very latest on the conflict in the middle east. The israeli army carried out its biggest incursion so far into gaza on wednesday night. It was not the start of a Land Invasion instead, israel said the raid was preparation for the � next stages of combat� against hamas, designated as a Terrorist Organisation by the uk government. It killed 1 00 people in attacks in israel earlier this month. Hamas has said that almost 50 of the hostages it took when it launched the attacks have been killed during the israeli air strikes on gaza, although there is no independent verification of this claim. These are pictures showing the extent of destruction in the gaza strip. As you can see, entire blocks of buildings have been destroyed. And these Satellite Images from maxar show the area before october 7. Said just to give you a comparison and a sense. And this is after. You can see the extent of the damage. The Israeli Military released this video, showing tanks and armoured bulldozers, crossing the perimeter fence. An Israeli Defence force spokesman told the bbc that soldiers carried out the tactical raid towards central gaza to � prepare the battlefield for future operations. Those other words they used. Those are the words they used. We begin with this report from our international Editorjeremy Bowen for hours, we could hear the explosions around ten kilometres away in israel. It was the biggest israeli raid into the gaza strip so far in this war. The army released this video, it said of the battlefield being prepared, presumably for the invasion of gaza that the government says is coming. The soldiers pulled back into israel sometime before dawn. In khan younis in southern gaza, more raids and death in a place where israel told palestinians to go to be safe. We want to live beautiful lives, said this girl, not have rockets hitting our heads. The building fell on our heads. The un says nowhere is safe in gaza and the siege violates the laws of war. Israel has killed thousands of palestinian civilians. Just a few miles away in israel, Sally Partrush lives in one of the Communities Hamas attacked. This is me, this is one of my friends, gil, and he was murdered. Im all the time thinking how they. What they did to them, how they suffered. With so much loss, whole families, she is furious that israels response has been questioned. This time we realise that, after that, its us or them. If it is, as you say, us or them, is it ok to ignore International Humanitarian law . Im tired of it, of what the law, the International Law said. The International Law didnt prevent these murders, these brutal murders. Where was the world . People were happy about it. Along the gaza border, civilian volunteers are bringing home comforts to the troops. The soldiers commanders say theyre ready and that its a waiting game until the War Cabinet Orders them into gaza. The men i spoke to are certain that israels actions since hamas attacked were legal, morallyjustified and vital for the security of their families. Most of the soldiers here were reservists, called out of civilian life. You said youre a social worker. Yes. You must deal with people with trauma. How long will it take israelis to process this national trauma, if ever . Generations. I think something is broken here. We want to protect. We dont want to fight. We dont want to kill. But if we need to do it, so here we are, here we are. Do you want to side with people like you . We are the same, we have the same values of freedom, womens rights, lg btq writes. Ahead is complex urban warfare. When might depend on the Success Orfailure of talks to free the hostages. Israelis get behind their soldiers, especially at times like this. Almost everybody has been in the military or has a son or a daughter in uniform. Its a different thing when it comes to politicians. Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu makes carefully choreographed appearances, but he avoids his Many Political enemies who say he left israel vulnerable to hamas. Israelis, though, are united in their fight against hamas, but their country faces big challenges, and their leader is under crushing pressure. Jeremy bowen, bbc news, in southern israel. Live now to washington where we can speak to aaron david miller, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for international peace, think tank. Hes also a former Us State Department official and adviser on arab israeli negotiations to both republican and democratic administrations. Thank you very much for being back on newsday. Good to have you. Diplomatic efforts have been stepped up, we have heard from the un, eu members have called for pauses to allow humanitarian aid into gaza is all of this going to have any impact on how israel is going ahead . I dont think so. I think what is going to affect israeli Decision Making are several constraints. The most important of which is their own indecision now with respect to the ambitious mass at their objectives. Israeli officials for weeks now have been talking about ending hamass existence in gaza, ensuring that it is no longer sovereign there with no capacity to govern. The task at hand is a brutal and bloodied one. So it is a brutal and bloodied one. So it is the nature of the objective, number one, and then there is ambivalence, i think amanda think there is been an evolving us position with respect to this, stale, great support, natural support from a pro israeli american president. The americans have been asking very tough questions. They are also adding the issue of the time and space to allow negotiations in qatar and egypt to see whether or not they can actually get large numbers of hostages, so i think theyve got several factors conspiring now to clearly delay the operation. Their question is are the americans, have the americans convinced the israelis that there is a more effective plan b. That to me is the most interesting question of all. ,. ,. , is the most interesting question of all. ,. ,. ,. , all. Rights. Israel has said that their aim is all. Rights. Israel has said that their aim is to all. Rights. Israel has said that their aim is to destroy all. Rights. Israel has said that their aim is to destroy hamasl all. Rights. Israel has said that i their aim is to destroy hamas and its infrastructure. Where are we with those objectives as you outlined some of them in your opening remarks. Weve come to nearly three weeks of the war. How are you seeing in terms of progress . I think israelis and air strikes have probably killed mid level, maybe one senior level hamas commander. Theyve clearly flattened and devastated much of gaza city in and devastated much of gaza city in an effort to make it easier for their troops to operate there should there be a massive Ground Campaign with tanks, and thousands of israeli soldiers. But i think the issue, frankly, for hamas is much less complicated for the israelis. All hamas has to do is survive this. All hamas has to do is survive this. All hamas has to do is survive this. All hamas has to do when the fighting is over is to demonstrate that its frankly still operates in gaza. And thatis frankly still operates in gaza. And that is the dilemma the israelis have created for themselves. These objectives which may now have to be rethought.

This is a big story that we will continue to track along with the headlines that are coming in from the us as we continue to track that story as well. Thats all for now stay with bbc news. Hello there. We have more unsettled weather on the way for the last few days of october with more rain falling on very saturated ground in areas which still have flooding. And were likely to see further issues at times. So unsettled, rain at times, but especially wet for Eastern Scotland. Its all down to low pressure anchored to the west of ireland. Its a huge area of low pressure with showers and bands of Rain Spiralling around it, and even some little low pressure systems running around it, such as this one, which could impact parts of england and wales on Saturday Night to bring a spell of very wet and windy weather. Now watch out for some very dense fog patches across the East Midlands into eastern england, certainly for lincolnshire, certainly through the morning rush, but they should tend to lift into low cloud. We start off with some sunshine, and then well see showers develop across southern and Western Areas where itll be quite breezy in the southwest. Some of these showers could be on the heavy side. And it stays wet for Eastern Scotland with some persistent rain there, maybe a little bit of brightness across the highlands and islands, but it stays windy here, too. Now, as we head through friday night, the rain keeps on coming across the east of scotland. Furthersouth, plenty of showers rattling their way into southern and Western Areas. But, again, parts of the midlands could stay dry with some low cloud and some mist and fog where the winds will be a little bit lighter. Temperatures ranging around 7 11 celsius. Into saturday morning, then, similar story, we hold on to windy conditions across the north and east of scotland with some persistent rain here. Elsewhere, we start off with some sunshine, and then well see showers going into the afternoon, some of which will be heavy and thundery. And then later in the day, an area of more persistent rain starts to push up from the south. Temperatures, again, 10 15 celsius. Now this area of wind and rain will spread northwards across the country on Saturday Night. Sunday looks particularly wet across the north of the uk. But youll notice even into monday, the last day of october, we hold low pressure close by to bring further showers at times. So sunday then looks particularly wet across northern england, scotland, particularly Eastern Scotland, start to tap into some colder air from scandinavia. So some wintriness likely over the high ground. Northern ireland, england and wales, another day of sunshine and showers, most of them towards the south and the west. Better chance of staying dry towards the east. Top temperatures, 1a 15 celsius, but much colder across the north. And then youll notice from the outlook here, as we head into the first week of november, things stay unsettled as low pressure continues to bring showers or longer spells of rain with some strong winds, too. This is bbc news. Well have the headlines at the top of the hour, as newsday continues straight after hardtalk. Welcome to hardtalk. Im stephen sackur. In a world not short of geopolitical trouble spots, it is easy to overlook the western balkans. But recent history tells us that would be a mistake. Right now, tensions are rising in the balkans. Serbia is at odds with its neighbours, most especially kosovo, Which Belgrade refuses to recognise. And those tensions do have regional impact. My guest is montenegros president , jakov milatovic.
