We start with efforts to get desperately needed aid into gaza, lets ta ke lets take you to live pictures in larnaca with a Spanish Charity ship is leaving the port carrying some 200 tonnes of food to gaza along what is going to become a new Maritime Aid Corridor that was announced by the eu. This vessel is being operated by world central kitchen, and it has been in larnaca for the last three weeks. It is towing a barge loaded with items which have been provided by world central kitchen. It is being organised by open arms, you can see the vessel has 0pen organised by open arms, you can see the vessel has open arms written on it. The open arms people say that on that barge being told our 200 tonnes of basic foodstuffs, including things like rice and flour and cans of tuna. The ship will take around two or three days to reach as i but we do not know where it will dock in gaza because there are no ports, so anything which has been set up will have to be temporary. It is an under closed location undisclosed location. They do not want to bring a lot of publicity to wear that badge ship is heading. The un, of course, the moment saying one quarter of gazas population is on the brink of famine and the children are starving to death. This vessel got all the permits it was allowed by the cypriot government earlier today and they said it would lead within hours. That is what we are seeing now, that vessel carrying around 200 tonnes of aid is leaving larnaca on that 0pen around 200 tonnes of aid is leaving larnaca on that open arms vessel, towing a barge which has all that food stuff, things like rice and flour and also cans of tuna. This has been going on for a few days now. The organisers say the final mile of the journey is going to be the most complicated of the operation. They say they are not concerned about security, butjust that it concerned about security, Butjust Thatitis concerned about security, butjust that it is so complicated and at the destination point, which as we said we do not know when it is, there will be a team from the world central kitchen, who have been building this peer to receive the aid. The group itself have about 60 kitchens throughout gaza when it will be able to distribute the food. This is all part of the eu and the uk and us and United Arab Emirates creating this maritime aid route. What theyre hoping to do is if this vessel is successful, they will be able to have a number of these which will leave cyprus and become a sort of hub for the aid, and it will then go via togs and boats into gaza where it is, of course, much needed via tugs. That vessel at larnaca leaving at the moment. A us military ship is also sailing towards the middle east, carrying equipment to build a temporary pier off the coast of gaza which has no Functioning Port to get aid there by sea. The us military says it airdropped more than 41,000 meals into gaza on saturday, with canada pledging to join aerial aid delivery missions. Israel has been accused of preventing aid getting into gaza, and us President Joe Biden says Benjamin Netanyahus conduct in the war is doing israel more harm than good. My colleague anna foster has this report. Theres little hope to be found amid the rubble in gaza. Another night of israeli strikes has taken its toll. Images like this travel around the world. Across the atlantic, israels main ally sees them too. The us President Joe Biden said he still supported israels right to defend itself, but he cautioned the israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu about the extent of the Military Operations he was sanctioning. He must, he must, he must pay more attention to the innocent lives being lost as a consequence of the actions taken. Hes hurting in my view, hes hurting israel more than helping israel by making the rest of the world its contrary to what israel stands for and i think its a big mistake. Just two weeks ago, mr biden was optimistic a ceasefire deal could be in place by ramadan. But now, with just hours to go, theres no sign of an imminent breakthrough. That means other options to get aid into gaza at scale are still being sought, as the fighting continues. Military airdrops above the strip deliver some food, but not enough. But that still wont meet the growing and desperate need. This mother cant find anything in gaza to help her child. Translation i feed my daughter with waterjust so she doesnt die. J water is not recommended and its even forbidden for a baby of her age. In cyprus, an aid ship is ready to set sail, loaded with supplies. The charity behind it say theyre confident they will be able to unload them when they arrive off gazas beaches. In the longer term, a us ship that will build a temporary pier to do the job has set sail, but the projects completion date is still two months away. And while its constructed, the pressure on israel to get more help to suffering civilians will continue. Anna foster, bbc news, jerusalem. Anna foster reporting asi as i said, in the last few minutes, that vessel has started to leave at larnaca in cyprus leaving for gaza with around 200 tonnes of aid. The un hasjust carried out a high risk mission to the north of the strip, where the hunger situation is particularly acute. The Un Population fund and World Health Organization visited two hospitals in gaza city Which Focus On Maternity and trauma care. Lets speak to Dominic Allen from the Un Population fund. Hes just returned from that mission to the north of gaza. Thank you very much forjoining us on bbc news. You have given us some of the pictures from your trip which we are going to show viewers.

The focus is for the i million women and girls of gaza, who im terrified for, 180 1 million women and girls of gaza, who im terrified for, 180 births every single day in gaza, and from this mission we ran to the north to deliver medical supplies, what i saw broke my heart. And you will see from the images, my takeaway is gaza is dust. The looks in the eyes of the people as we drove through and got out and spoke to them, the emotions are indescribable. Everyone we passed, everyone we spoke to was doing this, asking for food, we passed, everyone we spoke to was doing this, asking forfood, because everyday is a battle for survival in the north. 0ne quarter of gazas population is one away from famine and the two hospitals we visited, the al sadr hospital, the only functioning Maternity Hospital in the north and the hospital and visited him rafah, which is servicing nearly half of the births happening in gaza, the doctors and midwives i spoke to their little does a similar story which is they are seeing an increasing number of complicated cases, they have doubled since before 7th october, because the pregnant women are coming in with dehydration, malnutrition and distress.

When i speak to both the mothers, the pregnant women, the doctors and midwives, they are very clear they need more. Where they are getting it from, some of the supplies are moving in through the trucks which have been counted every day to come in, but it is not enough. We are under half of what was delivered into gaza prior to the lockdown of gaza and this is where we need much, much more.

Delivering aid and assistance that we have via land is so important, if you think about the scale of the destruction and suffering which i saw in north gaza and that is across all of gaza. We are going to need to be able to deliver aid at a much greater scale over a prolonged period of time and we cannotjust rely upon airdrops and see and we need to get unfettered access through multiple entry points across land crossing borders. � ,. , entry points across land crossing borders. � ,. , entry points across land crossing borders. ,. , borders.

I come back to the people ive spoken to this week and i come back to the women and girls who are calling for many Different Things but very clearly a ceasefire first. When i have sat with a number of the women, not just the have sat with a number of the women, notjust the pregnant have sat with a number of the women, not just the pregnant women have sat with a number of the women, notjust the pregnant women were concerned about, and the uk which is not here today, today is mothers day, we sat with women in womens shelters, its heartbreakfor their children because their first and foremost concern as being a mother, but they also spoke about the other challenge they face in being a mother and a mother i spoke to, mother and a mother i spoke to, mother of seven children, in one of these shelters, one of his is quadriplegic sitting in a tent in the sand who is unable to move. Talking about access routes and supplies is not going to be able to alleviate the huge suffering she faces setting in a tent in the sand with a disabled son with other children relying upon her with no dignity, with bombs exploding in the background, so we need to look how we can ensure the most vulnerable in gaza, their needs are addressed first, which a ceasefire and then, indeed, some of these other much needed supplies, food, water and in the medical system, the Health Care System that needs to stand up as well as at the other support and specific needs that women and girls having gaza.

Dominic allen from the Un Population fund, i allen from the Un Population fund, thank you forjoining us on bbc news. In the netherlands, hundreds of protesters have demonstrated against israels actions in gaza, as the israeli president attended the inauguration of a museum commemorating the holocaust. Some of those protesting about Isaac Herzogs visit were themselves jewish. They chanted never again is now accusing him of complicity in a genocide, an allegation he and the Israeli Government strongly reject. The Human Rights GroupAmnesty International put up detour signs around the museum, to direct mr herzog to the International Court ofjustice in the hague. 0ur Europe Regional EditorDanny Aeberhard is following the story and explained why president herzog was in amsterdam. Well, hes representing the israeli state at the opening of this extremely important museum. The Dutch NationalHolocaust Museum is the first and only museum in the netherlands to concentrate exclusively on the fate of dutch jews. It also obviously looks at other victims of the holocaust, such as the roma. But the vast majority of people who died werejewish. 102,000 dutchjews were killed during the Second World War. Thats about three quarters of the population. It was a very well integrated population at the time, and its the worst percentage for any nazi occupied country in western europe. So, you know, some terrible tales of killings, also some tales of survival as well. So its about educating people never to forget and never to repeat this. He spoke at the ceremony marking the opening of the museum. What did he have to say . Well, he spoke precisely of the dangers of anti semitism and racism as a reminder. But he also said it was a warning about growing anti semitism around the world. And one of the things he highlighted was a call for the Immediate Release of the jewish hostages being held by hamas in gaza. So he called for people to pray for that. He also spoke a little bit about the people who remained silent during the Second World War while jewish people were deported. And praised, of course, people who, the relative minority of people who actually were involved in rescuing jews during the holocaust. And we have, since the opening of that museum, seen protests in the city continuing. Absolutely. Well, most of the protests, i hasten to add, were peaceful, if voluble. But there were, outside the museum, you had different groups. So youve had pro israel people who are waving israeli flags. Youve got pro palestinians, and tensions have mounted. This is, of course, an extremely sensitive issue, the gaza conflict. Protesters would like to see isaac herzog arrested and tried at the International Criminal court in the hague for genocide. That, of course, is something that the israeli state and president herzog himself utterly reject any association with genocide. So that is the underpinning of this. Were also, of course, at a very sensitive time, not only with the opening of the Holocaust Museum, but with the start of ramadan coming up now. So tensions are running extremely high. Ukraine has insisted it will Never Surrender in its more with russia when the pope has said it should have the courage to raise the white flag. He said ukraine should negotiate with Vladimir Putins regime. He clarified he use the term might like to stop hostilities, not an outright giving in. The princess of wales has thanked the public for their support as she recovers from recent surgery. In a mothers day message, accompanied by a family photo taken at windsor, catherine said thank you for the kind wishes shes received since she underwent an abdominal operation two months ago. 0ur Royal CorrespondentDaniela Relph reports. A family photo for mothers day that is hoped will calm some of the more extreme gossip about the princess recovery. An informal image with her three children in windsor. Her husband, the prince of wales, was behind the lens. With the photo a personal message. Signed off with a c for catherine. The last time we officially saw the princess of wales in public was on christmas day, as she met the crowds at sandringham. Thank you so much. Thats very sweet of you to come and say hello to us. Thank you. Have a very happy christmas. A few weeks later, she was in hospital having abdominal surgery. Her exact condition has never been made public and the team around her have fiercely protected her privacy. Prince william has continued with royal duties without his wife at his side. Flowers and messages wishing her well have become part of every engagement he now does. There is unlikely to be any more detail released about the princess recovery for now. There has also been a mothers day post on social media from Buckingham Palace a photo of the king and the late queen, along with a message to those missing their mothers today. Kensington palace will hope the photo of the princess addresses the public curiosity about her and quells Wilder Speculation. We still dont expect to see her back on royal duty until after easter. Daniela relph gave us more on the publication of the latest Family Picture of the princess of wales. Well, i think we have to take it at face value. She looks pretty well, doesnt she, in that photo, surrounded by her three children, who are all laughing. Its an informal portrait taken by her husband, and thats very much, again, a sign ofjust how private the princesss recovery is being kept. The circle around her is being limited to Close Friends and family, so no official photographer was brought in here. This was a photo taken by her husband. And the message from Kensington Palace that they hope people are going to take away from this is that kate is doing well. She is recovering in private. We probably wont hear much more or see much more from her for the next few weeks, but they are hoping that there is a sense of reassurance being provided by issuing this photo. Yeah, because there has been a lot of social media speculation. Indeed, even more today since that photo has been released. Yeah, its been pretty wild out there at times, particularly over the past couple of weeks since Prince William was unable to go to the thanksgiving service for his godfather, King Constantine of greece, and he said that was because of a personal matter. That seems to have really set the hares running in terms of the social media, in particular, conversations and chat and theories about what was wrong with kate. This will go some way to dealing with the public curiosity and quelling some of the Wilder Speculation out there, but, as you say, what it also does is start a whole new load of theories off, and that has happened today. But i think broadly what this photo will do is take a little bit of the heat out of the conversation in terms of what is wrong with the princess and how is her recovery going. That is a Royal Correspondent daniela ralph. Tonight is the biggest night in the Entertainment Calendar the oscars. Final preparations are taking place ahead of the stars hitting the red carpet later. Christopher nolans 0ppenheimer is up for 13 awards and is expected to clean up.

We will have coverage of the winners of the oscars here on bbc news. Hello. For many of us, the weather story has been one of cloud and rain. It has felt decidedly chilly. Temperatures will climb through the week ahead with some further bouts of rain at times. Low pressure has been dominating through the weekend, that low centre to the south of us, Cloud Swirling around in this type of cloud has been producing some outbreaks of heavy and persistent rain. The rain was slowly but surely peter out as we head through the night, the heaviest bursts will ease but it will stay quite damp and drizzly with some areas of mist in the hills, and any clear spells could fill in with patchy fog as well. Monday morning, quite a murky start, a low clearing eastwards, other Weather Systems waiting out west. For many of us, not a huge amount going on apart from some cloud, mist and murk. Some brighter spells, especially for wales and the South West Of England. This area of low pressure may bring some rain perilously close to the east coast of england and this frontal system will bring rain across Northern Ireland and into western scotland. Temperatures 6 12 degrees. This Weather System makes its way in from deep west, this first pulse of wet weather bringing rain across Southern England. We will see more rain getting into Northern Ireland, perhaps west wales and South West Scotland as we head towards the end of the afternoon. Temperatures are beginning to creep upwards, wind coming from the south orsouth west, highs of 8 13 degrees. A sign of Things To Come. The middle of the week, these Frontal Systems Wriggle around but will shift northwards, some outbreaks of rain yes, but a feed of mild air starts to set itself up, those South Westerly Winds bringing a mild, warm feel to proceedings. There will be some sunshine into the second half of the week and into the weekend but some rain at times, those temperatures to around 16 or 17 degrees. Goodbye for now.

The final English Premier League meeting Ofjurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola is living up to many of those that have preceded it. Liverpool and Manchester City have the chance of going top of the table with a win at anfield. There are about three minutes to go, but it is still 1 1. City took the lead throuthohn stones, who tucked in a well worked corner in the first half, but then the game turned again with edersons challenge on darwin nunez. A penalty was given, with the brazilian goalkeeper eventually forced off through injury, but not before hed failed to stop alexis mac allister converting the spot kick to equalise for liverpool. Should things stay this way, arsenal will remain top of the premier league. Spurs beat aston villa emphatically to improve their chances of claiming a top four finish at their opponents expense. Two goals early in the second half, then two more in injury time giving spurs a 4 0 win that keeps them fifth, but theyre only two points behind villa and have a game in hand. Outstanding.

Uk shadow chancellor, Rachel Reeves, has played down expectations of a Rapid Improvement in Public Services if labour wins the next election. She told the sunday with Laura Kuenssberg programme there would be some extra spending, but labour would have to scrutinise the detail. Its clear that the inheritance that a Labour Government would have if we do win the next election will be the worst since the Second World War. And i have to be honest that were not going to be able to turn things around straight away, but we will get to work on all of that. Our Political Correspondent peter saull shared his analysis on the comments she made.

Voters in india have expressed concern as of the Election Commission has been left with only one of its top three officials. I spoke to someone about the role of the Election Commission in india. It is an independent body, it holds the worlds biggest democratic exercise. We are talking about 960 million eligible voters ready to cast their ballots in the elections due to come in the next few weeks. The Prime Minister is seeking a third term, and this body is given enormous powers, because the conduct National Elections as well as state elections, and they cannot bar anyone from campaigning if they violate the code of conduct, and they also monitor how people are spending money for the elections. This latest resignation has come as a surprise for many because he did not give any reason that has led to a lot of speculation about whether he had differences of opinion with the chief Election Commissioner, and he had another three years to go, especiallyjust he had another three years to go, especially just weeks before he had another three years to go, especiallyjust weeks before the election, that has really surprised many people in india.

A Top Secret Military discussion was intercepted in germany and made public by russian state media. Officers from the German Air Force were heard talking about weapons aid to ukraine.

Germanys missile has a range of about 300 miles. Olaf scholz feels this will escalate the war and that ukraine will need german personnel to help operate the missiles. This weeks conversation discusses all of this, and makes reference to the uk already having forces in ukraine. This we already knew because in february, Downing Street confirmed a small number of personnel are in ukraine, though it did not say what they were doing, and one reaction to they were doing, and one reaction to the said while reaction to the league has continued, the kremlin has shed its thoughts on it.

If the day of Alexei Navalnys funeral. If that the day of Alexei Navalnys funeral. If that is the day of Alexei Navalnys funeral. If that is the intention, none of germanys allies are being critical. Not in public, the lease. But the uks former defence secretary ben wallace is concerned. He was in government during the majority of this war, and has told the times we know germany is pretty penetrated by russian intelligence, so itjust demonstrates they are neither secure nor viable. The german ambassador to the uk called those comments are unhelpful. And while you trains allies will seek to offer a united front, they know the decisions about how to support ukraine are crucial, not least because right now, for ukraine at best the is stuck, and worst rush is getting the upper last month, ukraine withdrew from a key town. It says it needs ammunition and weapons. Since the war began, johnny has provided more military aid than any other country about the us, and throughout the conflict, like ukraines, allies, germany has had to decide what kind of Military Hardware it will provide. Russia will want to influence these kind of decisions. The leaked german conversation may be part of an effort to do that. The conversation may be part of an effort to do that.

This week as another example of that this all week is another example. Not that. A group of mothers have gone on a Hunger Strike in a bid to raise awareness of parents who are skipping meals to feed their children. One in five households with children are experiencing food insecurity, according to the food foundation. The six members of the Campaign Group mothers manifesto will protest outside parliament until thursday. Emma hopkins is the organiser and spoke to the bbc. We felt that on mothers day, something very poignant about mothers and what we stand for. We stand for care, we stand for nurture. And actually, mothers will go to Great Lengths to try and protect and look after their children, however theyre not able to. And were here standing in solidarity and to highlight the reality of what so many, so many mothers, so many people are facing right now. You know, the fact that were going on a five day Hunger Strike, actually, people are skipping meals daily. People are not eating for days in place. And thats in the uk. You know, on one of your signs, i read a story of a of a single mum of two children about how she is struggling. Can you just tell us some of the stories that you hear . Yes. Thats someone in totnes and shes a young mum with two children and she told us that shes having to skip meals and that her eldest son is not believing her any more. I think thats really typical, actually, of the situation that so many people are facing. You know, the amount of women that are having to skip meals to feed their children and actually not eat for days. Our calls to action from this government are that no child in the uk should go hungry. And this has to include, you know, that actually universal Free School Meals, nutritious Free School Meals for all state schools, including teenagers. They also need to eat. That we have universal basic income that meets peoples essentials. You are meeting with mps on tuesday. What are you hoping to get out of that meeting . Were hoping to have more conversations and get more support, start to build the campaign, really. And i think this is a very special year because we actually have the elections and of course people are wanting to do what people want. So hopefully if we can amplify the voice of the many, many people in this country that are struggling. The government has issued a statement in reponse to the Hunger Strike, saying, we recognise households have struggled with food inflation, which is why the government has provided one of the most generous Support Packages in europe to help vulnerable families. Since 2010, we have doubled the number of number of children receiving Free School Meals, lifted 1. 7 Million People out of poverty including 400,000 children by reducing the number of workless households. Owners of keyless cars are being urged to be vigilant, after a surge in Vehicle Thefts across the country. Thieves are increasingly using High Tech Gadgets which boost the electronic key� s wireless signal from within the home. Our reporter leanne brown has the details. Smashing windows using coat hangers and screwdrivers. The old way of stealing a car involved brute force. But as vehicles have become more sophisticated, so has pinching them. Many cars these days have a Keyless Entry system where you simply have a fob and you press a button. And some can even unlock when you are nearby and your device is in your pocket. Lincolnshire police warn there has been a spate of keyless car thefts. To steal them, criminals use a Range Extender Box that lengthens the range of the fob from a few metres to several hundred allowing an accomplice to start the car. You need two people but there is much less damage involved. No noise in terms of trying to break into a car, smashing a window, hot wiring or anything like that. All you have is one person prowling around the house and hunting for a signal and the other one crouching down next to the car waiting for a signal to be beamed to them. It is much easier for them to steal at car, and as a result, inevitably, this sort of thing is increasing. Claire from hull experienced thieves targeting her street. They were walking past cars with their hands in their pockets, and you could see the car lights flash as if they had been unlocked by a key fob. But our key is actually inside the house. You can then see the gentleman break into the carjust by opening the door easily, rummaging around and moving onto the next car. So they are doing multiple cars at the same time. It is heartbreaking, really, because you just think, you know, iworked hard for this. You feel that you can take what you want. The car was not stolen here, but in the uk one is taken every eight minutes. After years of negotiations, the world famous Speedboat Bluebird Which broke seven World Water Speed Records has returned to its spiritual home in englands Lake District. Our reporter adam powell has the story. A fond farewell from the team that painstakingly Rebuilt Bluebird. North shields was where the wreckage of Donald CampbellsFamous Speedboat was brought after it was recovered from the depths of coniston water. But after a legal battle, k7 was handed over to conistons Ruskin Museum and its journey to its forever home began. The bluebird wing of the Ruskin Museum has been open since 2010 and its been a bit like a ring without a diamond. North east engineer bill smith found, then recovered bluebird in 2001. He and his loyal band of volunteers have spent a big chunk of their lives rebuilding the jet powered speedboat. Ive always described this as a diving job that got out of hand. Thats my short version so, yeah, i did geta bit involved in the end, yeah. Everyones very proud of their work and Everyone Wants to clap their work off the premises and be very positive because this space youre standing in now, which is empty, will be full next week with something else. This is the end of an era and the start of a new one. For the last 20 years, bluebird has been rebuilt here in north shields. Now, its been transported over cumbria to the Lake District and coniston. Donald campbell died injanuary 1967 attempting to break his own water speed record, pushing the boat beyond 300 mph. At a more sedate pace, it was a journey of around 120 miles on the back of a flatbed truck. In 2018, the Rebuilt Bluebird ran again on loch fad on the isle of bute. Bluebirdsjet engine has been removed, yet the Ruskin Museum say they hope to one day run bluebird again on coniston. I said to brian, my partner, i will never live long enough to see this day and if it hadnt been for the museum and their tenacity and doggedness to see this through, i dont think i wouldve lived long enough to see this day. Bagpipes skirl. Cheering and applause. They came out in force to celebrate bluebirds return to coniston. The expectation about what happens next to this iconic speedboat is building. Adam powell, bbc news. Live to los angeles and the red carpet at the oscars. The oscars will not start for about five hours, but as you can see, the red carpet is already packed with journalists who are all broadcasting around the world. Hello. For many of us, sundays weather story has been one of cloud and rain and where youve been stuck under those grey and wet conditions, particularly when youve been exposed to the breeze, it has felt decidedly chilly. Temperatures, though, will climb through the week ahead, albeit with some further bouts of rain at times. Low pressure has been dominating things through the weekend, that low centred just to the south of us, clouds swirling around it. And this stripe of cloud that you can see here that has been producing some outbreaks of quite heavy and persistent rain. Now, the rain will slowly but surely peter out as we head through the night. Certainly the heaviest bursts will ease, but itll stay quite damp and drizzly with some areas of mist and hill fog and any clear spells that you might see across, say, south wales and the South West Of England will they could just fill in with patchy fog as well. So monday morning, quite a murky start. Its an in between day, really. This low clearing eastwards, other Weather Systems waiting in the wings out west. But for many of us, not a huge amount going on, aside from a lot of cloud, some mist and murk, a few brighter spells, perhaps most especially for wales and the South West Of England. This area of low pressure mayjust bring some rain perilously close to the east coast of england and this frontal system will bring some rain across Northern Ireland and into western scotland. Temperatures 6 celsius in lerwick, 12 celsius in plymouth. Through monday night and into tuesday, this Severe Weather system saunters its way in from the west. This first pulse of wet weather bringing rain across wales, parts of the midlands and Southern England as we start tuesday, that should tend to pull away southwards, but well see more rain getting into Northern Ireland, perhaps west wales, North West England and South West Scotland as we head towards the end of the afternoon. Temperatures though, beginning to creep upwards. The winds start to come from the south or the southwest. So well see highs between 8 13 celsius. A sign of Things To Come through the middle of the week. These frontal systems just continue to wriggle around but will generally shift northwards. Some outbreaks of rain, yes, but a feed of pretty mild air starts to set itself up. Those South Westerly Winds bringing a mild, even warm feel to proceedings, actually, particularly where you get to see some sunshine, and there will be some sunshine as we head through the second half of the week and into the weekend. But some rain at times. Those temperatures, though, up to around 16 or 17 celsius. Bye for now. Live from london, this is bbc news.
