When it was struck. There have been several clashes around the Southern City of rafah an area where many people had taken refuge from fighting elsewhere in gaza. Thousands of people have fled the camp. Israel has advised them to go to the al mawasi area, near the coast, and to khan younis. Theres also been heavy fighting injabalia, in the north of gaza. Israel says it has returned to the area to counter any attempts by hamas to re establish its military capabilities in the area. Lets speak to our correspondent danjohnson injersusalem. Give us more details about the un aid worker being killed. Yes. Give us more details about the un aid worker being killed. Aid worker being killed. Yes, we dont have aid worker being killed. Yes, we dont have a aid worker being killed. Yes, we dont have a huge aid worker being killed. Yes, we dont have a huge amount aid worker being killed. Yes, we dont have a huge amount of. Aid worker being killed. Yes, we i dont have a huge amount of detail yet, but we know that a un vehicle was struck yesterday and that one aid worker was killed, another one injured. That incident has been condemned by the un secretary general, who has called for a full investigation into the circumstances. Antonio guterres has used that to highlight the threat that humanitarian aid workers are facing in gaza. The Israel Defense forces say their initial review of that incident shows that that vehicle, although it was marked, was in an active combat zone and that they had not been notified of its route and that they that may have been the cause, but the full circumstances are still being investigated. More than 190 un aid workers have been killed since this conflict erupted in october and it does outline the threat posed to humanitarian aid workers and the palestinian population, especially around rafah with the intensification of Israeli Military operations there over the last week also. � ,. ,. ,. ,. , also.

Yes, we have seen israeli tanks going back into that israeli tanks going back into that area in the north of gaza, somewhere that was cleared earlier in this conflict. Declared safe and free of hamas fighters around january time. So the fact israels military has had to re enter that area and conduct operations perhaps suggests hamas battalions have been able to reorganise and pop up again in that area to the north of gaza, closer to israel, something that brings into question israels strategy here and whether in suggesting that it can eradicate from hamas, whether it has been unrealistic in that aim. The Israeli Military had said that it needed to focus On Rafah In The South of gaza, on the border with egypt, but at the same time it is intensifying its Military Operation there, we know thats fighting going on again in the north with the suggestion that hamas has been able to re emerge there. And that is something people warned about, that as soon as israel had cleared one area, hamas fighters would reappear. So something for israels military to consider as they move forward with their potential offensive against rafah in the south now. We know there are now hundreds of thousands of Palestinian Refugees already sheltering in rafah who are now on the move again because of the intensification of Military Operations there. Intensification of Military Operations there. Intensification of military oerationsthere. ~ operations there. Dan johnson, thank ou ve operations there.

To georgia next. Parliament is expected to have a final vote today on a controversial � foreign influence law that has provoked huge street protests.

We are now right outside the parliament, by the parliament and you can see behind me, there is already Police Reinforcement guarding the entrance to parliament.

And what researchers say could be a Major Medical breakthrough. A new study has found anti obesity injections could reduce the risk of Heart Attacks, strokes or Heart Failure in obese people, regardless of the amount of weight they lose. Researchers spent five years studying more than 17,000 people in over a0 countries. They say the findings could prove as significant as the introduction of statins in the 1990s. With more, heres our correspondent chi chi izundu. Obesity is considered a growing Health Problem in the uk, because alongside it can come other health complications. And one treatment a Weight Loss Drug offered on the nhs only from last year could help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. A new study in part paid for by the company which makes one of the drugs, ozempic is suggesting that the medication could cut the risk of Heart Attacks and stroke. Scientists followed more than 17,500 people from 41 countries, with an average age of 62. All were either overweight or obese, didnt have type two diabetes, but did have a history of cardiovascular problems. Half were given a dose of the drug, the other half, a placebo. The report suggests that anti obesity medications such as ozempic and wegovy appear to cut the risk of Heart Attacks and strokes, regardless of how much weight people lose. Whilst the study still has to be fully reviewed, experts are describing its findings as a game changer, and could potentially change clinical practice like other drugs taken to help cardiovascular conditions. I think its a really important discovery. Its an important change because its the sort of thing we got with statins. When we in the � 90s, when statins came in, we finally figured out that there was a drug class that would change the biology of this disease to benefit a lot of people. Ozempic was originally used to help type two diabetes sufferers, but demand for it has seen shortages in recent months, leaving patients struggling to get their prescriptions. Why these drugs are potentially helping fight things like Heart Disease is not yet fully known. Scientists think it could be related to inflammation. And there are other Chronic Diseases they also think this drug could help. Chi chi izundu, bbc news. Americas top diplomat, Antony Blinken, has arrived in ukraine on an unannounced visit. Mr blinken arrived in kyiv by sleeper train, and was greeted by senior officials. His visit comes as weapons from the us start to arrive at the front line. Ukrainian forces are struggling to hold back a russian incursion near its second biggest city, kharkiv. Live to kyiv and our correspondent, james waterhouse. James, an unannounced visit from mr blinken and he has already been talking. What has he been saying . Yes, he has described how a free and thriving ukraine is the best way to rebuke vladimir putin. He has described this visit is a real sign of reassurance. And this is not to say visits like this, not least from ukraines biggest military backer, are to be dismissed. These visits bear fruit and they are central to ukraines continued war effort. But he will be talking with president zelensky and his senior ministers at a time when Russian Forces or expanding its invasion. Where it is now starting to have a very different dimension, with this new North Eastern front line. And so you can be sure that they will be pointing mr blinken towards what is happening and president zelensky has already said he has raised the issue of the speed of this american ammunition and weaponry. Because well it was a political coup for kyiv, for this huge 61 billion package to finally be unlocked in washington after months of disagreement, we are a month after that and we understand that only, there has been a Trickle Down Effect really in terms of ammunition. Were told Artillery Shells and long range missiles have started to arrive. But to give you an idea, kyiv acknowledges if all of it was to arrive tomorrow, its goal is only to stay in the fight and to hold the front line. And at the moment, we have more than 30,000 Russian Forces thought to be part of this cross border incursion into the kharkiv region, we have Mass Evacuations in the surrounding area. We have a town called vovchansk which officials there say is being levelled. And you have evacuations further north. Where there is constant shelling. It is clear russias ambitions are widening and its confidence is increasing. So it is a timely visit by Antony Blinken, which of course is welcome, too. And which of course is welcome, too. And tell us what which of course is welcome, too. And tell us what the which of course is welcome, too. And tell us what the troops or the generals in charge of the ukrainian side of things are saying about how important those weapons are and also about how difficult it is to get them to the right places. He has, there are huge them to the right places. He has, there are huge logistical them to the right places. He has, l there are huge logistical challenges when your country is on the Receiving End of a full scale invention invasion. There isnt no fly zone. If we heard a jet flying overhead, a lot people might flinch and turn their heads. So a lot of this kit comes by road or rail mostly comment never as efficient as air or by sea. And then course, even when you have to troops receiving it, they are already overstretched, the country is struggling to mobilise enough men for its right. And with this break out fighting in the north east, what little reserves ukraine has, they have been forced to redeploy further north, but there is still fighting going on further south, where russia is looking to take towns and cities there. So the delay to american aid is part of it. Ukraines domestic issues with mobilisation is another part of it. And it is clear they have had some issues in Building Fortifications around the border by the very nature of which Russian ForcesRussian Forces have in some parts seemingly wanted in and take in the settlements. So this is a very concerning time for ukraine. And you can be sure that they will be pushing Antony Blinken on longer term assurances as to how they can best defend themselves. Best defend themselves. James waterhouse. Best defend themselves. James waterhouse, thank best defend themselves. James waterhouse, thank you best defend themselves. James waterhouse, thank you very best defend themselves. James i waterhouse, thank you very much indeed. And you can get more analysis of Antony Blinkens visit to ukraine online from our Us State Department corrrespondent, tom bateman, who is travelling with the secretary of state.

The star witness for the prosecution, Michael Cohen, has been giving evidence. He was once the former president s lawyer and fixer, but he spent monday on the stand, outlining how he made a payment to the Adult Film ActressStormy Daniels to stop her talking about a relationship she claimed she had with mr trump. The defence is expected to stress mr cohens criminal record and openly stated dislike of his ex boss. Heres our North America editor, sarah smith. The star witness for the prosecution is also their biggest problem. Hes been to prison for telling lies to congress, so why should thejury believe him now . Do you plan on telling the truth . Rude and loud mouthed, hes already been called a bully and a jerk in this trial. And he frequently attacks donald trump online. Even thejudge has asked him to stop it. Trumpism is fascism, and we must eradicate it from our body politic. Donald trump cant answer back. He has been threatened with a Jail Sentence if he says anything about Michael Cohen or any of the trial witnesses. So, instead, hes highlighting a New York Times opinion poll that shows this trial is not damaging his political support. And there it is, its trump, leading by a lot. In every state. Every swing state, leading by a lot. This trial is rigged. Today, donald trump listened to his formerfixer saying hed do whatever was required for the man he called boss, including telling lies. Mr cohen described working to kill Salacious Stories that could have hurt mr trumps first president ial campaign, including Stormy Daniels� claim about a sexual encounter. For a felony conviction, prosecutors need to prove donald trump intended to influence the election outcome. He says he paid the hush money to stop his wife finding out. But Michael Cohen told the court, he wasn� t thinking about melania, this was all about the campaign. Mr cohen says he paid ms daniels� lawyer and kept donald trump� s name away from the deal, but told him every detail because everything required mr trump� s sign off. Political allies of donald trump are allowed to call mr cohen a liar. Does any reasonable, l sensible person believe anything Michael Cohen says . Idont think that they should, and i actually think that his testimony will not affect any reasonable juror, and hopefully, we i have a few of those. Michael cohen hates donald trump, he makes no secret of that. But will that stop the jury from believing his crucial testimony against his former boss . Ifjust one juror is unsure of donald trump� s guilt, that will be enough to save him from conviction. Sarah smith, bbc news, new york. Northern ireland� s first minister, michelle 0� neill, is due to appear before the uk covid inquiry today. Many expect her to be asked about the funeral of senior ira figure bobby storey, which saw large crowds line the streets, despite covid guidelines. 0ur ireland correspondent, sara girvin, is in belfast. Sara, what can we expect from today . Yes, at the time of the pandemic, michelle 0� neill was the deputy first minister of Northern Ireland and she was really at the heart of a lot of the decisions being made around how this place was going to deal with covid. Now, this is the third and final week of the uk covid inquiry sitting in belfast. So far, we have had a real picture painted about what has been described as political dysfunction, bad relationships between politicians and how all of that impacted on the decisions being made. The stormont executive, the power sharing government here in Northern Ireland, had collapsed for three years in the run up to covid and they had only been up and running again for a matter of weeks before the first case was detected here. So i� m sure we will hear michelle 0� neill� s reflections on all of that. But as you say, she will most likely be asked about her attendance at the funeral of bobby storey. At the time, it was the height of the pandemic. It brought a lot of people onto the streets of belfast at a time when there were a lot of restrictions about funerals and public gatherings, how many people could gather. There were a lot of accusations at the time that michelle 0� neill accusations at the time that michelle o� neill and other senior members of sinn fein broke covid restrictions. The party was denied that and said they acted within guidelines. It caused so much controversy that there was an investigation into the incident, but there was a decision at the end of that not to prosecute anyone in relation to the funeral. As i say, it did cause a lot of political controversy. 0ther politician said this really undermined Public Health messaging in Northern Ireland and gave an impression there was one set of rules for members of the public and anotherfor of rules for members of the public and another for politicians. 0f and another for politicians. Of course, that is something that has been a massive think throughout the uk covid inquiry. So we will expect to hear from michelle uk covid inquiry. So we will expect to hearfrom michelle 0� neill on that as well. A massive thing. In 2020, she said she would never apologise for attending the funeral of a friend. She later said she did accept the controversy around what happened did undermine Public Health messaging. Will she go further than that today . We don� t know, but a lot of people will wait and watch to find out. She is already inside the inquiry and we expect to hear from her soon and that will take all day. And we will hear from baroness Arlene Foster tomorrow, the former leader of the dup and the former fizz first minister of Northern Ireland. So expect that talk about political dysfunction and bad relationships between politicians here in Northern Ireland to be a big thing tomorrow here at the inquiry as well. ,. , thing tomorrow here at the inquiry as well. ,. , thing tomorrow here at the inquiry as well. , ~ ,. , thing tomorrow here at the inquiry as well. , i. ,.

Their family would describe twins georgia and melissa as keen and adventurous travellers. Back in 2021, they took the trip of a lifetime to mexico, sightseeing and volunteering.

It was georgia who saved her life, leaping into action. It grabbed her on the leg and her behind and tried to death roll her and drag her away. So i was beating it on its snout and it grabbed my wrist and my arm. So i had to beat it off with the other with my other arm. Both twins were rushed to hospital. Melissa was left with life threatening injuries. She contracted sepsis and was placed into an induced coma. It was touch and go for a while, but a few days later, georgia shared this positive update.
