in at the hamas attacks on southern israel on the 7th of october who are being held more than 200 of them now, hostage inside gaza for exactly 50 days and that is where you can see large crowds starting to gather. some of them are families of the hostages who have come here they have many times over the last seven weeks, to really, i think, have many times over the last seven weeks, to really, ithink, receive support from other israelis, from other hostages, from friends and families. and this is an important moment on day two of this deal because, in the last hour, the armed wing of hamas has said on its telegram channel that it has decided to delay the second round of hostage releases and has accused israel of not adhering to the agreement and not adhering to the agreement and not delivering enough aid to the north of the gaza strip which is part of that deal brokered by qatar. until this latest development we were expecting at least 13 israeli hostages to be released, to be handed over to the red cross in gaza and that would be then followed by the release by israel of at least 39 palestinian dating needs who are being held in israeli prisons. now, it is not yet clear how long this delay will last. israel has appeared to confirm the development. they have said that the handover of the hostages to the red cross and gaza has not begun just yet and this is, as we were saying, the second day in this four day deal. which involved, apples and fighting, extra humanitarian aid going into release of both israeli hostages and palestinian detainees. it went according to plan yesterday, many people described it as a successful first day of that deal. 50 hostages were due to be released in four batches at a ratio of one israeli hostage for every three palestinian prisoners held in israeli jails and we know that a delegation from qatar are here in israel today. they have been mediating between the two sides. in fact, been mediating between the two sides. infact, earlier on been mediating between the two sides. in fact, earlier on this afternoon that the suggestion was, certainly the suggestion from egypt and their official state news agency was that they were hearing positive reactions from both sides in terms of a possible extension to that four—day deal. and yet within an hour or so, what we started to see was something very different. what we then started to see was this suggestion that things were not going according to plan and comment that, ratherthan going according to plan and comment that, rather than an extension to that, rather than an extension to that deal, we are going to see this delay in the release in the hostages. let's hear from delay in the release in the hostages. let's hearfrom our correspondence who brings as the latest from jerusalem. these are nerve—racking moments notjust for the families of the hostages but also the palestinian side because as we know, the terms of the deal stipulates that, once the israelis have custody of the hostages they will give the green light for the palestinian prisoners to be released. they are saying that israel is reaching the terms of the truce and they mentioned two main sticking points that would actually mentioned this morning by one of the hamas of spokespersons. said that one of the sticking points is the transport of goods and humanitarian aid to northern gaza, to the northern part of gaza and a second sticking point, which it seems has not been resolved or are still in discussion is the age of the prisoners, the palestinian prisoners who should be released. the agreement was for those who spent the longest time in israeli prisons are those who will be given priority and this is what they are trying to mention or trying to discuss now according to their spokespeople. so these are the main points that hamas is talking about as the main hurdle for the release of the hostages. and as we are talking here we are looking at live pictures from outside of the prison where of course the preparations appear to still be in place. it is hard to know how long this delay might last. what do you think? it is enormously hard to predict, isn't it? i want to ask you what will happen next but one thing we have learned is that it is really impossible to say with any certainty what might happen at any stage, isn't it? it is certainty what might happen at any stage. isn't it?— stage, isn't it? it is very difficult _ stage, isn't it? it is very difficult to _ stage, isn't it? it is very difficult to say _ stage, isn't it? it is very difficult to say what - stage, isn't it? it is very difficult to say what will| stage, isn't it? it is very - difficult to say what will happen next but what we will see is that they reach the final stage of the release of the prisoners so many are putting very high hopes that these details are going to be ironed out in the nearfuture, in hours or so. no one can tell, really, but there are on the border, from what we heard because the international committee of the red cross is across theissue committee of the red cross is across the issue so there is the last point before the release. there is a political will from different parties outside israel, the united states is pushing for this truce to continue. there are even talking about an extension of it. other countries are pushing for it as well. 0bviously, countries are pushing for it as well. obviously, the people of gaza want this choose to continue because of the very difficult humanitarian situation they are in right now. welcome yesterday we did see some of those hostages released from gaza. there were celebrating the scenes here in tel aviv as a long shabbat table made in the middle of the square with empty places reaching those hostages and some are taken away yesterday as the first batch were returned to israeli soils are let's take a momentjust to look a little more at some of those hostages who were released in that first group of 13. all of whom were captured during hamas's attacks on southern israel on the 7th of october. qatar, which has been 0ctober. qatar, which has been mediating between israel and hamas said that group is made up of 13 israelis, ten thai nationals and one filipino. now, in the israeli group there were three families and one group of five elderly women. the oldest 85 years old. there were four younger children in that group as well aged two, four, six and nine. just in the last few hours the israeli children's hospital has released a video of hostages reuniting with their loved ones and you can see here this is the moment that a nine—year—old, who was taken hostage with his mother and grandmother saw his father for the first time in seven weeks, running down the hospital corridor and hugging each other tightly after being released yesterday. this is what was happening yesterday evening. his grandfather remains at the moment and one of his relatives had this update on his condition. he: spoke to them, he said that they are fine, they are healthy. we feel very worried for the other families. we feel like we are one big family with all the otherfamilies of feel like we are one big family with all the other families of the hostages. we are waiting for all of them to come back and we're still going to work hard for everyone to come back. i am waiting to see him and i cannot wait to give him his rubik cube which i know he really loved and he probably missed it so much. that is the first thing he takes everywhere he goes. some of the released — takes everywhere he

unique situation is to take care of the basic needs of the families, to respect their privacy and to consult with them about the way to cope with this stress. let with them about the way to cope with

the second group of israeli hostages. they were supposed to be handed over, supposed to be returned back to israel today as part of that four—day deal. a senior hamas official has told the bbc that the delay to the handover of the is due to, in their words, israeli violations of humanitarian truces by preventing agreed—upon aid trucks to enter the northern part of the gaza strip and said that israel allowed only three tracks out of hundreds to reach northern gaza. we also said that israel violated the ceasefire agreement by flying a drone over the southern part of gaza and further said that israel made significant changes to the agreed list of palestinian prisoners that were going to be released and also, again, this is all from a hamas official talking to the bbc, also that the idf, the israel defence forces, had killed two palestinians in northern gaza in an area of gaza, he said, where palestinians are allowed to live. so this is what a senior hamas official has had to say to the bbc about that delay. israel and the israel defence forces have denied that they, in any way, violated the terms of this agreement. so i think what it was sad to see now is, once again, that qatari mediation process starting to kick in. remember it was counter at the centre of this deal because it is real and hamas do not have diplomatic relations. they don't talk directly so qataris with the ones who actually brokered that deal. the ones who passed messages between both sides and arranged it. it is interesting that we did here of course today that this qatari delegation had arrived here and they have come to discuss, perhaps, a potential extension to this agreement. there was always provision put in place for this four—day deal to become a nine—day deal. there was a list of palestinian prisoners which was double the length needed and i think, you know, the parties, we were told, certainly in egypt also around the table, said earlier today through the state news agency that there were positive movements in terms of making that deal even longer in terms of extending that truce. but the situation that we are in now is that israel has denied breaking that truce agreement that hamas has that, as far as they are concerned, there has been a violation and that they will now delay handing over that next group of hostages. they have not said how long for and of course, a delay in handing over the israeli hostages will also mean a delay in the release of the palestinian prisoners, again, who are waiting to be released from the prison in the occupied west bank. the way that that steelworks, it is based on the ceasefire happening in gaza but it is only when the israeli hostages are actually returned to israeli officials that the palestinian are released. and so that part of the deal would also be delayed. under this breaking news that we have been hearing from hamas in the last hour or so. we have always said, and many people involved in this deal and many people have watched this conflict for many years have always said, of course, that these arrangements, they are very fragile. they often don't hold. i think there was a lot of hope and expectation that this one would so we will keep you up—to—date with those developing lines on this story. now, among the prisoners who were released yesterday from the prison where 17—year—old and

you live pictures of hostages - show you live pictures of hostages square here in tel aviv where is starting. you've seen people gathering here throughout the day. people have travelled in buses from all over israel to come to the square in the heart of tel aviv. you can hear the music that is being played. i know that the families of many of the hostages have actually come here this evening as well to be part of this and when you see in the crowd, some of those t—shirts, some of those pictures and posters with the names and faces on that are being held up, that is often family members of those hostages who have come here because this has really become a hub and it has become a focal point, there are various artworks around the square. there is artworks around the square. there is a big side building. this is the tel aviv museum of art, the square with the names and faces of some of those hostages are continually being beamed onto the side of that building. this rally, we know, it is notjust in the square. it is spread through the surrounding streets as well. it marks the fact that it is now 50 days since more than 200 people were taken hostage by hamas after those attacks in southern israel. 0n the 7th of october. now, israel. 0n the 7th of october. now, i want to show you next some pictures that have come into us from inside gaza. this is where people have been waiting in long queues for fuel and aid have been waiting in long queues for fueland aid and have been waiting in long queues for fuel and aid and food as well. people have said they have been waiting in line for many hours to collect things like cooking gas, which has finally made its way into gaza. people are really trying to make the most of the pores inviting to gather much—needed supplies and in the southern gaza strip people were saying that, actually, the price of things like vegetables had dropped in the last 2a hours or so. because, finally, some more food had got it in. israel said that of those 200 or so trucks that had actually passed into the gaza strip through the rafah crossing, more than 100 of them said that they had food on board. but, of course, we are now seeing this further development in the story where hamas and girls are saying that humanitarian aid is not being spread evenly through the strip for reaching the northern part of the gaza strip. the people who actually stayed in that area and didn't come south, israel says that is not the case and because that is where we see now the two sides once againfinding where we see now the two sides once again finding themselves in a very long way apart. qatar had brokered a situation there actually closer together. they managed to make some sort of agreement but, again, looks like that is going to cause their spores and this delay in the hostage release so we're just going to show you these continuing pictures from what is happening in hostages square here in tel aviv. many people have been arriving here. some of the hostage families as well who i've been talking to this evening, you know, they want to come here. you know, they want to come here. you know, often when you hear people talking about the traumatic experience they have been through it can be a very hard and difficult thing to do but i know from speaking to many of those families that they do that to make sure that the stories and the names and faces are known around the world so from here in tel aviv, i also want to reflect, for a moment, the humanitarian situation in gaza as well. particularly under that deal. whether or not a delay in the hostage release would mean, perhaps, issues in the further delivery of humanitarian aid. i spoke earlier to the policy leaderfor humanitarian aid. i spoke earlier to the policy leader

aid, in i reported that 137 trucks of aid, in addition to the trucks of fuel and cooking gas came in. they still fell short of the 200 trucks that we were told would be entering each day. but it was the most that had entered since october seven. but as you mentioned it is nowhere near enough to meetjust the basic needs of the 2.3 million palestinians in gaza. 1.7 million of whom have been incredibly get displaced. it's in 60% of housing damaged or destroyed in gaza so people are in desperate need. notjust of food, water and medicines but shelter, mattresses and bedding. really, everything that you need to have a normal dignified life. and the amount of aid going on is reallyjust a trickle of what is needed to meet these unprecedented needs. and when desperate they are hoping that this temporary pause will hold and become a permanent ceasefire. not only do we need that in order to have a sustained humanitarian response but we cannot take the people of gaza cannot take any more damage to the infrastructure, any more loss of civilian life. it is just too much for the buyers to address at this moment. a, for the buyers to address at this moment. �* , ., ., ., moment. a

the bbc news website which is constantly updating the latest news on the latest information, in particular, that line we are following at the moment which is this delay that that we told hamas has announced that it is going to delay the release of the second group of israeli hostages who were due to be handed back over to israeli officials this evening. we don't know if that'll be a short delay or a longer one. it also means there will be a delay in the release of palestinian prisoners who are being held in israeli jails. 0f being held in israeli jails. of these 39 of those were also due to be released this evening so, of course, we will continue to follow that breaking news for you. if she'll said that they had. ijust want to show you the live pictures of the prison in the occupied west bank because, of course, this is where they are preparing for the release of those palestinian prisoners later this evening. 39 of them at least, we are told, and i imagine that those preparations are taking place. they've been brought from various prisons and that is where the handover process takes place and then they are taking out through the checkpoint and return to their homes and families so even though the preparations are happening there, no movement at the moment. and also live pictures here of where i am right now in the centre of tel aviv this evening. positive square where we know that people have travelled. they can see again live pictures from the square here for this rally. they're going to be addressed and spoken to by some of the families of the hostages as well. some of those family members who are still waiting for the return of their loved ones. there is music as you can hear, people are gathering and holding out posters with the names and faces of the hostages on them because this place, this square in tel aviv has become such a hub for the hostage movement over the last seven weeks of this war since those people were taken captive. stay with us with this development here in bbc news. hello. it's a chilly and crisp day out there. the skies are generally clear, too, and that means that this evening, it's going to turn cold. and once again, we've got quite a widespread frost on the way. let's have a look at the satellite picture. and from the motion of the clouds, you can guess where the air has been coming from — from the north. but temporarily, we will see something a little bit milder coming out of the west, ahead of this weather front here. and that's also going to bring a fair amount of cloud and some rain for some of us on sunday. so here are the temperatures — saturday, mid—to—late afternoon, around about 3 to 6 degrees celsius. tonight, the skies are clear. so once again, a sharp frost will form across scotland, england as well, but starting to turn a little less cold through the night out towards the west. so belfast, 3 degrees. i think the western fringes of wales milder too, and plymouth, around seven celsius. but elsewhere, temperatures around freezing, or even below. now, this area of low pressure will be moving across the country during the course of sunday and that means very different weather tomorrow for many of us. so we've got the crisp sunshine through today we'll all have had. tomorrow, it's a case of thicker cloud out towards the west. some outbreaks of rain moving through northern ireland, perhaps around the irish sea, wales, the south—west, the south, slightly higher temperatures — ten in belfast, 13 in plymouth, whereas in aberdeen and newcastle, it's more like four or five. and then through sunday night into monday, that low moves right across the centre of the british isles, and that also leaves a legacy of cloud for monday and some outbreaks of rain. so, not a pretty picture. back to work early in the morning on monday with outbreaks of rain. and notice, the winds are coming from the north once again. so on the backside of this low, as it pulls away, that colder air returns, so back to single figures across most of the uk. now, is this colder weather going to hang around? so we're looking for these blues to stick around and, yes, they do through most of the week. weather fronts try to come in and bring some slightly milder air, but i think it's going to stay on the chilly side. so temperatures into single figures in the outlook for the week ahead, but it's not necessarily going to be sunny. in fact, farfrom it. at times, some rain, a bit of sleet, maybe mountain snow. live from london, this is bbc news. after an agonising wait for the families, the armed wing of hamas says it has decided to delay the release of the second group of israeli hostages. it's not yet clear how long this delay will last, but israeli officials seem to confirm the development, saying the handover has not yet started. these are live pictures from the occupied west bank, one of the locations of palestinian prisoners who are also due to be released as part of the exchange. ukraine says russia has targeted it with the biggest number of explosive drones launched in one bombardment, since the start of the war. it said 7a of 75 drones were shot down. the former minneapolis police officer convicted of murdering george floyd has reportedly been stabbed in prison. welcome to the programme, i'm lewis vaughanjones. starting with this development we've heard in the last hour or so from the armed wing of hamas, announcing their decision to delay the second round of hostage releases with israel. we have now some details about what hamas have said to the bbc. a senior hamas official has told the bbc that israel allowed only three trucks out of 100 to reach northern gaza. it also said israel violated the cease—fire agreement by flying drones over southern gaza. as we go through some of the latest lines, let's take a look at some of the latest pictures we have life from you —— for you from right around the region. let's look at some of the families of some of the hostages. this is in tel aviv, a place where those with loved ones who have been held hostage have been gathering and protesting, and campaigning. they are there in solidarity with each other, and many there hoped that today would be the day were the second group of hostages would've been released, but that has not happened. there has been a delay. hamas effectively accusing israel of breaking the terms of the agreement that they had between them, so we were expecting around 13 — 1a hostages to be released— that list of names had been received, but that has not happened. let's get a round up has not happened. let's get a round up now of all the very latest with 0rla guerin. racing into his father's arms, nine—year—old ohio. followed by his grandmother, who is 78. three generations of one family who were held hostage. her husband still is. and crowded onto one bed, the asters. "did you miss me," he asks? "did you think about daddy?" "i dreamt about going home," says the four—year—old. "your dream came true," he says. "we're going home soon." she was held with her mother and baby sister. for the families of the 13 israeli hostages released yesterday, there isjoy and relief, but also pain because of those left behind. and this message from ohio to's brother. "it is very important to clarify that while we are happy today, we are not celebrating, because other hostages are still in captivity. we need to free every last one." in gaza, it's time to count the cost of weeks of israeli bombardment. higher means palestinians have gone on audio to the north, the largest camp in gaza — or what's left of it. "we are unarmed," says bakhmut." "we are civilians, we don't carry weapons, and we don't resist." "why have they destroyed our houses? why are they killing our children?" but for palestinians too, joyous homecomings in the west bank after prisoners were released from israeli jails, most of them women. a few dozen more are expected to be freed tonight. first, the next group of hostages should be crossing this border from gaza — but hamas has delayed their release, claiming israel has violated the truce agreement. israel denies this. i want to take you to our various live feeds that we have been monitoring — for the last few hours, we were expecting developments, then it would would be delays. ijust want developments, then it would would be delays. i just want to take you through to let you know what we are monitoring. first of all, we are told that there could potentially be a press conference from hamas, you can see they are setting up there — when that starts, our team here will be giving across it. let's take you now to gaza at the rafah crossing between egypt and gaza, crucialfor a couple reasons. one, the expectation that there would be around 13—14 israeli hostages being released would get out of gaza. that does not seem to have happened. secondly, it's a crucial crossing point for ada. trucks have certainly been rolling in, but according to hamas, we've heard that in their eyes, they are claiming that not enough of those trucks got to northern gaza, and therefore they claim their agreement was nullified there by the actions of israel. we will wait for a full formal response from israel on that. let's take you to some other important locations. let's go to the west bank, 0fer prison, a crucial location that we are looking at here because this is the place where the palestinian prisoners and detainees were expected to be released from. we've been monitoring this site for most of the day, saturday, but as yet no palestinians released as part of that deal. we were expecting around 39-42, but that deal. we were expecting around 39—42, but we understand that has not happened. lastly, i want to show you tel aviv. this became known as hostage square, where families, relatives and loved ones of the hostages had been gathering, and many expecting news of the second group to be released today, saturday, but that has not happened. everything went pretty smoothly yesterday, that first group, but today there's been considerable delay thus far and there's no sense of any timetable right now. so there you are across everything that we are monitoring right now, we will go and speak to our correspondent from bbc arabic. live now to our bbc arabic correspondent reda el mawy. good to see you, what's the very latest? . , , ., ., , latest? the latest is hamas, the military wing _ latest? the latest is hamas, the military wing of— latest? the latest is hamas, the military wing of hamas - latest? the latest is hamas, the military wing of hamas said, i latest? the latest is hamas, the military wing of hamas said, as | military wing of hamas said, as you mentioned before, that israel breached the terms of the agreement. they mentioned that not enough trucks have access to the northern part of gaza, only three trucks, and they were waiting for 100 trucks. previously they mentioned another sticking point, saying that israel violated the terms by flying spy drones over the south of gaza, when their agreement was to not fly any planes or drones in the south of gaza, and stopping the flight of drones over northern gaza for six hours. these were the terms announced prior to the start of the truce. they are saying as well that the names and numbers in the list, specifically the names on the list have been changed — they said that the agreement was to allow those who spent the longest time in israeli prisons to be released today, and they say the israelis have breached this agreement. the israelis are saying they didn't breach any of those terms, and right now there's a stalemate, a war of words between the two sides. the al-qassam brigades, the armed branch of hamas, are saying they will not release the hostages unless these terms are met. the head of the chief of staff and the israeli army said as soon that truce is over, the israeli army will resume its operations in gaza, and the main goal is to free the hostages — implying that, whether by negotiations or force, they will free them. he said this is the ultimate goal of the israeli state. and he mentioned that the fighting would resume once the truce is over. so there's a lot of tension, a war of words between the two sides, and it's a nerve—racking situation for both sides because we know it's not only for israeli families, because according to the term, once the israelis have the hostages in their custody, they will give the green light for the israeli prison authorities to release the palestinians as well. it’s authorities to release the palestinians as well. it's such a contrast to _ palestinians as well. it's such a contrast to what _ palestinians as well. it's such a contrast to what happened i palestinians as well. it's such a contrast to what happened on | palestinians as well. it's such a i contrast to what happened on friday, just yesterday, when things seem so smooth. ~ , ,., , smooth. absolutely, there were scenes ofjubilation, _ smooth. absolutely, there were scenes ofjubilation, there i smooth. absolutely, there were scenes ofjubilation, there was i smooth. absolutely, there were i scenes ofjubilation, there was lots of tension before because it was the first day of the truce and the first batch of hostages to be released. so i was in a military base which was the first point of meeting the released hostages. there was a lot of tension and anxiety at the beginning, then after that, it gave way to scenes of relief. today, it's all anxiety and waiting.— all anxiety and waiting. thank you ve much all anxiety and waiting. thank you very much for— all anxiety and waiting. thank you very much for that, _ all anxiety and waiting. thank you very much for that, we _ all anxiety and waiting. thank you very much for that, we will i all anxiety and waiting. thank you very much for that, we will come | very much for that, we will come back when we get any sense of any potential movement, development or timetable, but at the moment, we simply don't have any of that. let's look at the ada that's making its way into gaza, because it appears from what we've heard that thatis appears from what we've heard that that is a crucial issue here at state —— aid. let's get more on that aid that's making its way in to gaza. juliette touma is director of communications for the united nations relief and works agency for palestine refugees. we spoke to her before these developments, i should say, but she has more detail on what's inside the aid truck. basic medical supplies, food, tricking water, cleaning material, hygiene kits — very, very important, as basic as this sounds, because when i visited one of our shelters, it was very overcrowded. you saw people literally on top of each other, and they lacked the basic hygiene supplies. some of them have not washed for days on end, some of them left with only their clothes on them left with only their clothes on them that they have not changed for 45 days. so it is absolute the fundamental that these basic items, as basic as they might sound, get in and... pm as basic as they might sound, get in and... �* , p, as basic as they might sound, get in and... �* , ., ., , and... an update from the reuters news agency _ and... an update from the reuters news agency on — and... an update from the reuters news agency on the _ and... an update from the reuters news agency on the delay, - and... an update from the reuters news agency on the delay, and i and... an update from the reuters| news agency on the delay, and they are saying this. "egypt is trying to resolve the delay in the second round of israeli hostage releases from gaza." that's according to a palestinian official familiar with the matter who didn't want to be named, but they were speaking to a reuters news agency on saturday, saying that egypt is trying to resolve the delay. you'll be familiar that qatar has been instrumental in the negotiations leading up to this point, and are still very much involved, but it is not only the qataris, egypt has a very central role, and palestinian officials speaking to reuters say egypt is now trying to resolve the delay in the second round. now for the first half or so of the day, it looked that there would be no indication of a delay, or that anything would happen differently from friday when things did go relatively smoothly, especially when you consider all the logistics and moving parts, and tensions involved. so for most of the day on saturday, the assumption was it would be a similar process, but it very much has not been. a considerable delay and egypt is involved in trying to resolve it. he gave us an update on the condition of the hostages and told us about some of the challenges they now face. this is of course those released on friday.- they now face. this is of course those released on friday. they have been preparing _ those released on friday. they have been preparing for _ those released on friday. they have been preparing for the _ those released on friday. they have been preparing for the worst - those released on friday. they have been preparing for the worst and i been preparing for the worst and hoping for the best. it seemed like at least those hostages released yesterday were in relatively better shape than our worst expectations, obviously especially the kids have been amazing in their ability to recover, and some of them have been with family members, with mothers, so that's also the situation. but it's a very long recovery process, and we don't know yet exactly what the medical problems are, despite the medical problems are, despite the excitement and the joy, we will have to follow up and see what exactly they need. for some of the people, they don't have a home to return to. their homes and communities were burned to the ground in the october seven massacre, genocide and they will now have to hear many bad news. about the family and friends that were murdered. �* the family and friends that were murdered-— the family and friends that were murdered. �* . , , , murdered. and incredibly complicated and difficult situation. _ murdered. and incredibly complicated and difficult situation. let's _ murdered. and incredibly complicated and difficult situation. let's take i and difficult situation. let's take and difficult situation. let's take a quick moment to zoom out and look again at the truce, which did hold yesterday and so far today. lieutenant general sir tom beckett is the executive director of iiss—middle east. he told us more about what the idf and hamas are likely to be doing during this truce. in simple terms, in campaigning planning, what the idf will be thinking about is three things. what is, what if, and what next? what is, is what is happening now, is the ceasefire holding, the hostages continuing to be released? and if they are, they will maintain their defensive stance in northern gaza. but the "what if" is if either of those two breakdown, the ceasefire breaks down or hostage releases stumble, or if indeed, they are told to resume the campaign, and that will be, what they do with the rest of northern gaza? we already know that much of it is uninhabitable, and there is probably only about 200,000 of the population left there. israel currently controls about less than half of the northern gaza. so what does it intend to do there? and that's the what if? and the "what next" piece is, what does it do when it is told to continue? and it seems clear now that hamas and the associated groups, the leadership have withdrawn into southern gaza and likely concentrated around khan younis. 50 israel have to consider how it deals with that because if the stated goal continues to be to destroy hamas as a military entity, then it will have to take action in the south. and that is going to be very problematic. the numbers are swelled by the movement of displaced people from northern gaza. and hamas will continue to hide amongst them. so it will be a difficult campaign plan for them. it will also be incredibly difficult to explain to this part of the world, the arab world, why the campaign has moved to the south, where that was supposed to be a refuge. a march in support of palestinians in gaza under way in london. organisers claim 300,000 people took part in the march. before the start of the organisation, please hand out leaflets warning against the use of words or images that could break the law. the metropolitan police say two people have been arrested for supporting a prescribed organisation, and for others for inciting racial hatred. i spoke to our correspondent simonjones for more on this. tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets here in central london. this is a pro—palestinian protest. now there have been protests like this in previous weeks, but what's different of course is that it takes place this time against that backdrop of the temporary truce. but i've been speaking to many of the protesters here draped in the palestinian flag, many of them chanting "free palestine" and they fear that this temporary truce will not lead to anything longer—term. that's why there's a great deal of emotion here, it's been a very noisy protest. we are currently at westminster, this is the end of the march that has been taking place through the streets of central london. there are speeches taking place behind me. there has been quite a large police presence along the route of the march, in fact around 1500 officers are on duty this weekend to oversee these protests. and rather unusually, they've been handing out leaflets — i have one here, it says, "keep on the right side of the law," basically saying to anyone taking part in these demonstrations that the police will not tolerate any form of words or images that are seen to be racist or insight hatred against any form of religious group. now i've spoken to the organisers who say they don't actually feel that these leaflets are necessary, because they say they have claimed ultimately overall that they've made it clear they are against all forms of racism. now in terms of the numbers here, protesters say they are expecting around 100—300,000 people. it certainly has been a very large march, a sign that tensions are very high over this issue. the met police say they've arrested one person who was seen with a placard with nazi symbols — but generally, from what we've seen, it's been a noisy protest and lots of emotion, but it's been largely good—natured, and the police are certainly hoping it remains that way. it's not the only protest in london during the course of this weekend — tomorrow, there'll be a big march against anti—semitism. in ukraine, the capital, kyiv has been hit by what the authorities say is the largest russian drone attack since the war began last year. ukraine's military said 7a out of 75 drones were shot down. our ukraine correspondent james waterhouse reports from kyiv — just a warning, his report contains flashing images. the illumination of kyiv�*s air defences, trying to keep out wave after wave of russian drone attacks. it's a desperate six—hour game of search and destroy. an assault designed to exhaust and overwhelm. even when they're intercepted, the debris can still be a threat. ukraine has resisted russian attempts to target infrastructure before, but they still take a toll. translation: the blast was very powerful. - it even blew out the entrance metallic door. we would have been buried by the doors because the strength of the blast was immense. in the north—east luhansk region, there are still hard—fought gains and losses. it's the story of the 700—mile front line. today, president zelenskyy was at a remembrance service in kyiv to commemorate where millions of ukrainians were starved to death under the soviet union in the 1930s. "evil was not stopped," he said, "was not atoned for, and now we are stopping it." his country still faces a threat from moscow today, and he's still urging the world to unite against it. james waterhouse, bbc news, kyiv. the attempt to rescue 41 construction workers from a collapsed tunnel in india has hit another delay. officials say the machine used to drill through the rubble that broke down on friday — drill through the rubble that broke down on friday cannot _ drill through the rubble that broke down on friday cannot be - drill through the rubble that broke| down on friday cannot be repaired. what officials are saying now is that, look, the drilling machine that they were using behind me to drill a hole to try and reach the workers that are trapped, that is now broken down completely. and in order to pull it out, they actually needs to pull it out in pieces. so they have to summon another piece of machinery from another city in india, and that's due to arrive late tonight. and that machine will then cut the drilling machine into pieces, so then it can be pulled out. once they are able to pull that out, what they're going to do then is go in manually and starts taking out the debris, in order to reach those rescued workers. now, just remind us, because i know lots of people will have been following this story from the beginning, but for those who haven't, just remind us exactly what happened. right, so you can see thatjust behind me is the mouth of a tunnel. and you might be able to see the silhouette of the mountain behind me. they were constructing a roadway through this mountain when, almost two weeks ago, a nearby landslide crushed the partially—built tunnel, trapping 41 men inside. now, what's making this rescue effort complicated is that because the tunnel was under construction, mixed in with all the rubble and debris is actually pieces of metal, and that's why the drill continues to get caught and ultimately why it broke down, amd resulting in officials here having to try and figure out a new plan to try and get those men out. the former minneapolis police officer convicted of murdering george floyd in 2020 has been stabbed in prison according to us media. derek chauvin is reported to be seriously injured. he's serving multiple sentences for killing mr floyd, a black man, which triggered huge protests worldwide against police brutality and racism. here's the live feeds we are still monitoring here. let's take you to the occupied west bank, 0fer prison, a significant location because it's where we were expecting palestinian detainees to be released from as part of the deal between israel and hamas, but that has been delayed. it has not happened. let's take you to the rafah crossing, between egypt and gaza, you can see it's pretty late and gaza, you can see it's pretty [ate there but they were hoping aid would be in, and israeli hostages would be in, and israeli hostages would be in, and israeli hostages would be out many were hoping for that, but that again has not happened. now let's go to tel aviv, where we can see many of the families, friends, loved ones of those hostages gathering there in that square in tel aviv. they had been hoping for good news, the release of those hostages — that has not happened. stay with us for all the updates. i'm lewis vaughan jones, this is bbc news. hello. it's been a cold and crisp day across many parts of the uk. a clear evening on the way, too, and overnight, we're expecting another widespread frost. now, let me show you the satellite picture first — and in the last 2a hours or so, you can see the motion of the cloud. it's been coming in from the north, so that's where the cold air has been coming from, from the northern climes. but out towards the west, temporarily, we will see this incursion of slightly milder air brought by a weather front. so it does mean that the temperatures won't necessarily drop that quickly across western parts of the country. yes, across scotland and many central and eastern parts of the uk, with the clearing skies, there will be that sharp frost — but out towards the west here, where we have cloud and dribs and drabs of rain, actually by the early hours of the morning, probably no lower than three celsius in belfast, and in the tip of cornwall and devon, around seven celsius. so let's have a look at the forecast, then, for sunday — here's that approaching weather front or couple of them, warm front, cold front, occlusion actually, as well, and that means a lot of cloud and some outbreaks of rain. so it does mean that, after that beautiful and crisp saturday, sunday will be very different — grey skies really overcast out towards the west with outbreaks of rain. but scotland, particularly central parts of scotland, will remain cold and clear through the day. some sunshine here in aberdeen, four celsius, and pretty chilly across yorkshire and down into the southeast, but southwestern areas will be a little bit mild, around 7—8. now sunday into monday, that weather front moves across the uk — in fact, it's right over us early monday — and it does spell some unpleasant weather in the morning on monday. so thick cloud outbreaks of rain, it'll feel cold, too — look at the winds coming in from the north again on this western edge of the area of low pressure, so the winds are coming around that low pressure dragging the colder air from the north yet again. so for most of us, it's single figures. and the cold air does hang around in the week ahead — in fact, there is milder air, but it's way towards the south and southwest of us. the air stream will be generally coming in from the north. so, here's the outlook for the week ahead. temperatures typically into single figures, but the weather will be quite variable and, in the mountains, wintry at times. bye— bye. live from tel aviv. this is bbc news. the armed wing of hamas says it has decuded to delay the release of the second group of israeli hostages. it is not yet clear how long this delay might last with hamas officials blaming israel for preventing aid trucks from reaching gaza. these are live pictures at the scene here outside the museum of art in tel aviv were relatives and friends of those being held by hamas in gaza are gathering together. this is the scene at the prison, one of the main locations palestinian prisoners are due to be released as part of the exchange. a major attack by russian drones on kyiv, ukraine's military say more than 70 were launched overnight. in the last hour, the armed wing of hamas says it has decided to delay the second round of hostage releases, accusing israel of not adhering to the agreement and delivering enough aid.up until this latest development, we were expecting at least 13 hostages to be handed over to the red cross by hamas, in exchange for around 39 palestinians.
