The palestianians the idf would soon be expanding its operation against what it says are Terrorist Operations in the Eastern Parts of the city. Around 100,000 people were warned they would need to relocate to al mawasi, an expanded safe zone, as they described it, east of khan younis. Celebrations 00v but then hours but then hours later, hamas announced, that the ceasefire had now been revived and accepted. Outside the Al Aqsa Hospital In Gaza there were celebrations at the news. But israel did not react warmly to the deal. Prime minister netanyahu said it did not meet israels demands and they will continue their operation in rafah, in southern gaza. 0ur security correspondent, frank gardner, whos injerusalem, says that even though israel hasnt agreed to the deal, the proposal has had some effect. They have at least agreed to do with they didnt do it the weekend which is to send a delegation of mediators and their view to traded tried to thrash out a deal. If a deal that meets their needs but theyre not really get out. I think there is a degree of optimism here. At the same time as i mentioned their continuing their push against their continuing their push against the wishes of The Americans In Rafah and that is controversial because all of the aid agencies are saying that this could be a catastrophic result for the civilians there. And essentially, i think if you do some of the israeli position, it would be keep talking but keep fighting. Earlier the Us State Department spokesman Matthew Miller gave its response to the hamas announcement. Ican i can confirm that hamas has issued a response in your discussing the response partners in the region and the directors in the region working on this in real time and we will be discussing this response with our partners over the coming hours and continue to believe that a hostage deal is in the best interest of the israeli people and the Palestinian People and it would bring an immediate cease fire and allow increased movement of humanitarian assistance and will continue to work to try to reach one. Im joined now by our North America correspondent david willis. David, what more can you tell us about the reaction out of washington . Its been cautious reaction as you might expect. The White House National security spokesman is telling reporters that the United States was evaluating the deal from hamas or word from hamas and went on to say that it was a highly sensitive time and he did not want to say anything that might up and the ongoing negotiations and later, we heard from Matthew Miller, the Us State Department spokesman who said that some sort of deal was achievable after President Biden had spoken by phone to the israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu and that before word came down that hamas had accepted a Cease Fire Deal and President Biden, according to the white house readout, reinforced his opposition to any sort of Military Operation in rafah but nonetheless, such an operation has gone i had at its assigned that perhaps of how limited the United States leverage is as far as the Israeli Government of Benjamin Netanyahu is concerned and a hard line government that has yielded to very little by way of request from the us for cease fire and greater access to humanitarian aid and so on as far as gaza is concerned, steve. President biden has been pushing for ceasefire, israels Continueing To Attack Rafah and calling for evactuatons is going to increase the pressure on him isnt it . Absolutely. And its very much a political hot potato here, this being an Election Year in less than six months to go before americans go to the polls here in President Biden is seeking reelection and he has come under criticism from some in his own party for failing to curb israels invasion in gaza and for the gathering and the growing death toll there and the progressives have called on him to do more but he has really been limited and the influence that he has been able to exert on Benjamin Netanyahu and we have seen a nationwide protest and universities and College Campuses over the course of last week or so and indeed, there is a report by the news agency that the United States last week decided to curtail Military Shipment to israel in an attempt to gain some sort of leverage over Benjamin Netanyahu and his cabinet, steve. David willis, North America correspondent. Bringing you a report later in the programme which and well be bringing you a report from our special correspondent fergal keane later in the programme which has more on the reaction to hamas agreeing to a proposed ceasefire and the evacuation beginning in rafah. Now to a breaking story and there has been a significant data breach, involving the uk Ministry Of Defence. With more on this our correspondent alex forsyth. Alex tell us what we know. What we know so far is that a third party has access and unauthorised fashion, a Pay Wall System by the Ministry Of Defence in the system is run by an external contractor and this is not the main Ministry Of Defence computer and operational details been obtained and what has been accessed is personal details of Serving Members of the armed forces and mostly names and Bank Account Details but also in a very small case, some addresses as well and people are currently serving in the royal navy and the army in the raf, and also some veterans as well and we are not sure yet and its not been confirmed he was behind this what that data is being used for but its a very significant breach in the defence is for immediate action in the system is been taken off line and investigations are being done to ascertain the scale of this in more information behind it and its in the process of contacting the people who are involved in whose information was accessed and stored it was personal information that was accessed and theyre looking at ways and can support and advise those individuals also talking to veterans groups because a number of people involved are former members of the armed forces and we also understand the uk Defence Secretary is due to update on mps and House Of Commons on this tomorrow and set out a plan and a Response Plan that also plans to ensure the protection of all serving Men And Women in the armed forces and i think this is a Significant Development in quite a lot to be learned about what is happening were likely to hear much about the House Of Commons and i would suspect a lot of questions from mps are concerned and want more information.

Around the world and across the uk. This is bbc news. Lets return to the situation in the middle east. As we mentioned earlier A Hundred Thousand refugees have been told to move to what israel is calling an expanded � humanitarian zone,� near khan younis, but gazans say the area, is already overcrowded. Fergal keane, has more details. They havent had reason to dance for a long time. But they havent forgotten how. Even amid uncertainty about israels position, hope springs. Across gaza, bbcjournalists captured the reaction. Of those convinced, perhaps prematurely, that a ceasefire will happen. Translation the feeling is indescribable. We are so happy we are going back to our home in gaza city. We are refugees from the north and we fled here, this young man says. We are so happy there is a ceasefire. Israelis are still absorbing the news. It came late on of this societys most important days, it came late on one of this societys most important days, when across the country sirens bring the nation to a halt in the memory of the dead of the holocaust. A day of reflection in a country traumatised by the hamas attack last october. Chanting tonight, on the streets of tel aviv, those who believe healing that trauma can begin with a Ceasefire Deal and the release of israels hostages. We expect the Israeli Government to take this deal, to save all the remaining hostages who are still alive. But after seven months of a war in which israels army pledged to destroy hamas, a Ceasefire Deal that fails to accomplish that risks breaking israels Wartime Coalition government. Israel will send negotiators to talks but will not stop fighting yet. Translation we examine every proposal very seriously and we review every possibility on the issue of negotiations and the return of the hostages to their homes as quickly as possible and as a central task. At the same time we carry on with our operations in the gaza strip and will continue to do so. This morning the people of Eastern Rafah awoke to leaflets telling them to evacuate. Many have been displaced before, but still they were told to leave. Everyone, no matter how old, how young, or how vulnerable. To al mawasi, israel says, and other desolate places beyond rafah. The so called humanitarian zones were to be expanded. But they have never been safe from sickness, hunger, orwar. This is the aftermath of raids on rafah last night. People hope these may have been some of the last air strikes if the ceasefire can be made to work. News of the hamas announcement was still hours away. Nisreen rajah, mother and refugee. For seven months this has been the daily reality. This orphan, grieved by his relative. His family was killed during the war, she says. Even he was killed. So many here are grieving and exhausted. Late tonight Israel AttackedEastern Rafah, where they told people to leave. Celebration had turned to fear. And the hope that tomorrow might bring peace. Fergal keane, bbc news, jerusalem. Later the starliner, a brand new spacecraft will make its first crewed test flight. Two nasa astronauts, will be heading to the International Space station as pallab ghosh explains. Ready for launch. Right on top is boeing starliner spacecraft. Its the latest private sector launch to the International Space station. This is starliner� s first test flight with a crew. Its five metres high and four and a half metres wide. It can carry up to seven astronauts into low earth orbit, but this time itll be carrying just two. During the mission, the crew will test the spacesuits and seats, assess the onboard life support and navigation systems, and evaluate the system that moves cargo to the International Space station. If all goes to plan, starliner will be certified for regular Supply Missions and lift off its first Uncrewed Test Flight in 2019. Missions. Its first Uncrewed Test Flight in 2019 didnt make it to the Space Station because of a software fault. A second attempt in 2022 did make it, but there were issues with some of the thrusters and the craft� s cooling system. And on earth, boeing has been facing growing scrutiny because of faults with some of its aircraft. This is the big one. This is the first test flight with humans on board. Theyve had a few problems on earlier test flights, i think its fair to say. So theres a lot riding on this one. The astronauts in their new blue lightweight suits have reassured those close to them that the faults have been fixed and the spacecraft is safe to fly. Were here because were all ready. And, you know, ourfamilies and friends have heard about it along the way. You know, weve talked about all these the issues that weve encountered. And i think theyre happy and proud that weve been part of the process to fix it all. The astronauts will dock 2a hours after liftoff and return after ten days. Theyll experience starliner� s landing system, which will touch down on land in the deserts of the south western United States. Pallab ghosh, bbc news.

Well, your Bank Holiday Monday probably came with a Rain Interruption at some point. It was pretty unsettled. Some lengthy spells of rain across the south east of england, but plenty of showers elsewhere. Others, though, managed some sunshine. And in lincolnshire, we had 11 hours of sun, so it wasnt so bad there, whereas others had the downpours. And across parts of northern england, we had a couple of Funnel Clouds spotted one over Saddleworth Moor and another one in the derbyshire area. The weather is going to be improving, though, over the next few days as a ridge of High Pressure starts to move its way in and that will tend to settle the weather down. A slow process. Weve still got a bit of rain left over across south east england, one or two showers elsewhere, but these will tend to fizzle over the coming hours. And temperatures as we start off tuesday morning, generally around 8 10, the coldest spots down to about 5 degrees. And thats probably where well have the best of the Early Morning sunshine. Now, what you do start off the day cloudy, and particularly around some of these north sea coasts, it could be quite grey. Some mist and fog patches around, a few spots of drizzle, but it is an improving picture for the majority. Cloud will thin and break up, with sunny spells becoming widespread into the afternoon. Outside chance of a shower . Yeah, its possible, perhaps across the hills of wales and south west england, one or two elsewhere, but not as many as weve seen over recent days. The vast majority of you will have a dry day and it will feel warmer when the sunshine comes out. The High Pressure continues to build in for wednesday, but we do have Weather Fronts that will try to sneak in from the north west. So wednesday, again, it should be a fine day for the vast majority of the country. Certainly england, wales, most of Northern Ireland looking dry with spells of warm sunshine, probably quite hazy sunshine. There will be some high cloud in the sky. But across the hebrides, highlands, orkney and shetland, it will turn cloudy, quite windy with outbreaks of rain moving in. In the sunshine, though, temperatures more widely climbing into the low 20s, so feeling progressively warmer. Thursday, youve still got a risk of a few showers, this time for scotland. Otherwise, some broken cloud and sunny spells. Should be another dry day for most areas of Northern Ireland, england and wales. And again, those temperatures continue to climb. Were up to 19 in belfast. The warmest weather probably across eastern england, where temperatures will reach around 22, possibly 23 degrees celsius. That is going to feel warm in the sunshine, and there is more of that sunshine as we finish the week and head into the weekend, albeit probably with an increasing risk of seeing some showers moving in. Thats your latest weather. Bye bye. More trouble for boeing as it faces a new investigation in the United States, this time over inspections of the 787 dreamliner. Plus, well look at how the boycotts against israel are affecting Companies Like starbucks and mcdonalds. Hello and welcome to Asia Business report. Im steve lai. The us regulator has opened a new investigation into bellowing. It comes after the playmaker acknowledge some employees may have failed to carry out property quality inspections on 787 dreamliners. Boeing says it will inspect all 77 jets on the inspection line. Our north America Business correspondent Michelle Fleury has more from new york. Boeings work is once again in the spotlight. Americas air safety regulator, the federal aviation authority, has opened a new investigation into boeing after the company came forward and said some employees had committed misconduct by claiming certain tests had been completed when, in fact, they hadnt. Now, the faa is investigating whether boeing completed inspections to confirm adequate bonding and grounding, where the wings join the main body of the plane, on certain 787 dreamliner aircraft. Bonding and grounding is vital on a plane because it prevents static build up. Think of it as electrical safeguards
