some of the israeli hostages who were seized by hamas during the group's deadly raids into israel in october, are due to be released. paving the way, for the first time in seven weeks, a temporary ceasefire between israel and hamas has begun. hamas — which is designated a terrorist group by the uk — has pledged to release 50 israeli hostages. in return israel will release 150 palestinian prisoners. let's look at the timings for the day. the ceasfire got underway at 5am this morning uk time. 13 of the 50 israeli hostages are due to be released at 2pm, at the rafah crossing. and within two hours, by lipm, 39 palestinians are due to be released at a west bank checkpoint. our middle east correspondent yolande knell reports. as the sun rose over the gaza strip the new truce brought

visit to the middle east. he�*s also been speaking to our diplomatic correspondent james landale. what did he have to say about the prospects of a lasting peace settlement? this was david cameron�*s first interview since he became foreign secretary. we spoke to him in the ramela where he was meeting palestinian leaders. naturally he was welcoming today�*s pours in the fighting saying it was notjust an opportunity to get hostages out but also a moment to get aid in. he also had a clear warning for israel about the way it is currently prosecuting this war. israel does have a right to self

correspondent yolande knell in jerusalem. a significant moment but there are still a long way to go to find a lasting settlement here. that�*s right. it�*s interesting because it has actually structured this deal to encourage more hostage releases in the future. israel has said that beyond the 50 hostages who were promised to be released, for every additional ten hostages who are freed by hamas it will extend this pause in the fighting for another day so that gives potential for things to go on here. there were something like 240 people snatched back on the 7th of october and qatar, which was a key mediator in the deal, says it hopes also that this could build momentum to try to end the violence. that said, hamas says it will keep its hand on the trigger over the coming days and we have also had the israeli defence minister talking to israeli troops, telling them this is just a brief respite in the fighting. and he said the war would resume with intensity, perhaps for as long as another two months. ., . ., perhaps for as long as another two months. ., ., ., ~ months. yolande knell, our middle east correspondent, _ months. yolande knell, our middle east correspondent,

london for the rest of the news. studio: anna foster, thank you. this was the scene in dublin last night — where rioters looted shops and attacked police during several hours of violence in the city centre. 34 people have been arrested and the irish prime minister, leo varadkar, has condemned the rioters. police blamed far—right protesters for the trouble, which broke out after a woman and three children were hurt in a stabbing near a primary school. our ireland correspondent, sara girvin, reports. the clean—up after the night before. dublin was doing its best to get back to normal today, but the scars left by the worst violence seen here in decades were there for all to see. following last night�*s rioting, police say there have been 34 arrests, 13 shops damaged or looted, 11 garda vehicles destroyed, plus a tram and three buses. the irish prime minister, leo varadkar, said the rioters are not patriots. those involved brought shame on dublin, brought shame on ireland and brought shame on their families and themselves. these criminals did not do what they did because they love ireland. they did not do what they did because they wanted to protect irish people. they did not do it out of any sense of patriotism, however warped. they did so because they�*re filled with hate. they love violence. they love chaos. and they love causing pain to others. after yesterday afternoon�*s stabbing, rumours began to swirl online about where the man detained at the scene was from. the bbc understands he�*s lived in ireland for many years and is an irish citizen. the head of the irish police said those behind the violence that led to scenes and damage like this were part of a hooligan faction motivated by right—wing ideology, and he urged people not to listen to social media rumours about the stabbings. in the city centre today, shoppers surveyed the damage left by the rioters. it'sjust anger, they just didn't, like... theyjust didn't think before they done anything, but, sure, look, it's done now, like. it probably wasn't the right thing to do, but it's dublin. it's not even aboutj the kids any more. it's about the riots. and that's not what it - should be, like, you know? there has been criticism that police could have done more sooner, but they say they couldn�*t have foreseen the level of violence. this is not a failure of personnel. all members of an garda siochana responded to this. everyone stood up to the plate in terms of their response. i now have to look to the tactics that we have for public order. we have not seen a public order situation like this before. this may be behaviour which is apparent in other countries, but i think that we�*ve seen an element of radicalisation. the clean—up operation will soon be completed, but questions around what happened last night and why will last much longer. sara girvin, bbc news. our correspondent sara girvin is in dublin. sara, dublin must be reeling from last night�*s events. i think that is fair to say. there is a deep sense of shock as well about the level of violence that things descended into quite so quickly last night. i have been speaking to a lot of people since this happened and they talked about feelings of unhappiness and frustration that have been building up frustration that have been building up over a period of time here. there is a housing crisis in ireland, many people can�*t find affordable homes for stop that has led to anti—immigration feeling in some quarters. when those rumours began yesterday that the man involved in the stabbing of three children at the stabbing of three children at the after school facility behind me, those rumours began that he was an immigrant, well, it felt like things exploded. police say those feelings were radicalised and whipped up on social media for top we heard from the taoiseach leo varadkar today on immigration. he said ireland would be a vastly inferior place without it. so there would need to be much soul—searching in this place in light of what happened here last night. light of what happened here last niuht. ~ ., ., ., ,, ., light of what happened here last niuht.~ ., ., ., ,, ., ., night.

used her body as a human shield to try to protect the girl. we know that a boy who is six has been released from hospital, and a boy who is five has been released from hospital and a girl who is six was not as seriously injured. we heard from the garda commissioner drew harris today that a police officer was seriously injured in the rioting last night and we hope to get more updates on all those

today who said they were unhappy with the previous regime. there is now a new chief constable in place who took over last december and he hasissued who took over last december and he has issued a strong rebuttal saying the measures are necessary because they have already taken measures to try and improve situations. one of the big things they have done here is reorganise the force into local police areas, like many forces within the force. according to rank—and—file officers that seems to be working quite well. craig gilford, who is the chief constable, said he didn�*t think this was necessary and he thinks things are working well. simon foster said the decision was based on old data but they accept the level of monitoring will now go on. they are saying that crime is already

our north of england correspondent danny savage joins us from sunderland. what does this mean for the wider community there, danny? i think the people here welcomed this in the north—east of england. it basically means that although they are putting money into this factory, what the company is doing is saying they trust the workforce that they have working for it. in return they feel as though they have job security going forward and that they can have jobs job security going forward and that they can havejobs here job security going forward and that they can have jobs here for perhaps decades to come. if you go back to the history for this site, the new sound bluebird was made here back in 1986 anterior in 2023 with the likes of the duke and the cask are being made and it is amazing to realise that in the space of eight and a half hours it goes from sheet metal to a completed vehicle. but it also means is faith has been restored. in car manufacturing here in the uk, which hit a bed on the road over brexit, uncertainty over whether it would continue with trade tariffs in place, but there is now paid from other manufacturers as well as nissan that cars can be made here in the uk in the long term but it has been done with government backing. the government is putting some money in. we don�*t know how much but as one executive here said earlier on today everybody had to bring a bottle to the party, but what we don�*t know is how much the bottle the government brought actually cost. we will find that out in time they are backing this and that is helping get this deal over the line for a long—term investment here in north—east england. for a long-term investment here in north-east england.— north-east england. danny, thank ou. the convicted murderer and former

the prison you can see behind me a parole board hearing took place. oscar pistorius attended the hearing and the parole board considered various issues including his conduct in prison, whether he prevented an ongoing risk. it also heard a victim impact statement from the mother of reeva steenkamp. she couldn�*t be here but a family friend read it. it expressed scepticism about whether he is really rehabilitated and expressed concern about the threat to women if his violent behaviour and his abusive behaviour has not been addressed in prison. people will remember that oscar pistorius was once a global superstar. he won multiple paralympic golds, competed at london 2012 olympics against non—disabled athletes. is victim reeva steenkamp was a very well—known model in her own right here in south africa and his murder of her generated headlines around the world. he was ultimately convicted of murder. he was sentenced to over 13 years in prison and the parole hearing that took place

to enjoy it. love it or hate it black friday is big butjust how big? it is fair to say it has been sluggish, slow starting to christmas spending here and there is a feeling that black friday will be a bit more subdued this year which is perhaps not surprising. surveys have suggested we will be sending less. for instance one piece of research reckons we will spend £8.7 billion over this weekend and a tiny bit more than last year but remember inflation, once you strip that out we are actually going to be buying fewer items. a lot of black friday spending is online, the body which represents online retailers reckon that online spending this week will be down 2% on last year and gifting down 11%, a sign perhaps that we mightjust be buying fewer presence this year. retailers hope that

ian wright has told the bbc that football saved his life after a spell in jail. the arsenal and england striker?was just 19 when he spent a month in chelmsford prison. 40 years on, he is lending his support to the twinning project, a charity?that uses football to help inmates gain skills and confidence in a bid to prevent reoffending. matt graveling reports. football matches are occasionally played behind closed doors, but for this game, the doors are locked and guards watch on. dane is one of those playing at hmp pentonville. charged with drug offences but taking part on a special course aiming to turn inmates to team—mates. i haven�*t done nothing like this in prison. i�*ve done more courses but i�*ve not done nothing like this. the last time i came in, i was young, i was 22. i came out at 26. now i�*m more than 38. so when you come, it�*s a whole different mindset. you don�*t want to be revolving doors. this is a revolving doorfor me. in a bid to stop reoffending, this seven week course in north london gives inmates a coaching qualification. and handing out the certificates for graduation is a local legend with his own story of life inside. iwas19, you know, i was driving cars around without the proper papers, which is crazy. and then in the end, you know what i mean, i ended up having to do 32 days in chelmsford prison, and i think in the end it changed my mind, it changed my life, simply because i knew that that wasn't a life for me. the 15 graduates are all hoping to turn their life around through a national scheme which pairs football with prisons, called the twinning project. in total, 73 professional football clubs have twinned with their local prison. here we are in north london, hmp pentonville, we are less than a mile away from the emirates stadium. their local club is arsenal, who have been coming in and running coaching courses for the inmates. in total, the twinning project since 2018 has helped almost 2500 prisoners. it offers the first step into football—based education, but more than that, it offers them the opportunity to engage with the football club�*s community. hopefully when they come out they can progress along the pathway, and the key thing is every time we can stop an offender reoffending, the taxpayer saves £50,000. and that's worth fighting for. the government say they want to see reoffending rates reduce and are encouraging more clubs and prisons to join the project. football saved my life. at the end of the day, the tough decision always will come down to the individual, you know what i mean? you're choosing to go on this path, it's not easy, but you have to stick with it. if you stick with it, you'll be fine, like i did. everybody in here�*s still a human being. we all, you know, we all make good choices, we all make bad choices. we�*re just people who maybe made the wrong choices in life. but like i said, it�*s only a chapter in our life and it�*s not too late to turn things around, so, you know, the sky�*s the limit. matt graveling, bbc news. the world�*s biggest iceberg is on the move after more than 30 years being stuck to the ocean floor. at almost 4,000 sq km in area, it�*s more than twice the size of greater london. this is a satellite image of the iceberg. the iceberg, known as a23a, split from the antarctic coastline in 1986. but it swiftly grounded in the weddell sea, becoming, essentially, an ice island. the past year has seen it drifting at speed, and the iceberg is now about to spill beyond antarctic waters. so, why, after almost 40 years, is the a23a on the move now? the consensus is it�*s not due to a change in shelf water temperatures, butjust that the time had come. it�*s a showcase for the uk music industry, celebrating success and fresh talent. but now organisers of the brit awards are updating their rules after the backlash the show faced when all five nominees for the best artist trophy were men. the shortlist will now be increased from five to ten, to allow a more balanced and diverse list of nominees. our culture reporter guy lambert reports. it�*s bold, it�*s loud, and it�*s the biggest music award ceremony in the uk. but the brit awards has seen some considerable changes in recent years. in 2022, male and female categories were dropped in favour of a gender neutral approach. but there was dismay the following year when no women were shortlisted for the best artist prize. harry styles. last february it was harry styles�*s night, winning every category he was nominated in. and he dedicated his victory to the many female artists to have been overlooked. charli xcx was one of them. i�*ve heard a lot of chat about, you know, the fact that there weren�*t enough females in album cycle and that is why no one was nominated, but i was in album cycle and i had a number one album. so... in 2024, the brits will now expand the number of nominees for the prize from five to ten, something the awards�* organisers hope will create a more balanced and diverse field. i think the impact, and we all hope the impact will be that we will see more representation across that category, and making sure that we have a balance of all the, of course, genders, but also, you know, musical influences, heritage, background, and making it as representative as possible. there will also be a new award for best r&b act. previously r&b artists were forced to compete in a combined category with pop music, a scene dominated by mainstream artists. singer mahalia voiced her dissatisfaction at the 2023 ceremony, wearing a jacket with the words "long live r&b" painted on the back. she has said she felt pure happiness and pride at the decision. the 2024 brit awards ceremony will take place on the 2nd of march, but before the red carpet, all eyes will again be on the make—up of the nominees shortlist, released early next year. guy lambert, bbc news. time for a look at the weather. here is darren bett. big change in the weather _ here
