We start in the middle east, where israel says hezbollah has fired over 100 missiles into the north of the country, following extensive israeli Air Strikes in lebanon on saturday. The rockets targeted the city of haifa, nearly 30km from the border with lebanon, and the Ramat David Airbase further south. Israel has told its citizens to restrict gatherings in the city, and in areas near the northern border, in anticipation of a fresh aerial assault. These pictures show part of an intercepted rocket that was launched from lebanon that fell near nazareth in the early hours of sunday. That fell near Nazareth Israel has been carrying out more Air Raids in Southern Lebanon. Here you can see explosions lighting up the nights sky. Saturday saw constant strikes and counter strikes between the idf and hezbollah, which is designated a Terrorist Organisation by several western countries. Lebanons Health Ministry says 45 people, including women and children, were killed in fridays israeli attack on beirut. Hezbollah says that includes 16 of its members. These are live pictures from haifa where hezbollah has targeted its attacks. In a statement, the iranian backed Militia Group said it was in response to the Pager And Walkie talkie blasts earlier this week. Our middle East Correspondent is in Beirut And Paul adams is injerusalem and they talked me through the developments. Hugo started by addressing Restrictions Israel has put in place. Restrictions israel has put in lace. , Restrictions Israel has put in lace. ,. , place. These have been announced place. These have been announced by place. These have been announced by the place. These have been| announced by the israeli authorities in northern israel because of the rockets that have been fired by hezbollah from Southern Lebanon and we see it has been a violent morning of violence across the israel lebanon border. Hezbollah said it carried out an initial response after explosions targeting pagers and walkie talkies used by the group and one target was an israeli military Production Facility in the city of haifa. In response the israeli military has been carrying out a Number Ofair Military has been carrying out a number of Air Strikes targeting hezbollah positions in lebanon and the statement by the israeli military said the attacks would continue and intensify. The fear is we could be seeing a wider Israeli Offensive against hezbollah. We have seen there has been an escalation in the conflict between Hezbollah And Israel in the past days and hezbollah is defiant saying the attacks will continue unless there is ceasefire in gaza. The fear in lebanon is the country is being dragged into a conflict with israel that is not in the countrys interest, a conflict that could be devastating for lebanon. , , lebanon. There has been cross border lebanon. There has been Crossborder Fighting lebanon. There has been Crossborder Fighting for| lebanon. There has been L Crossborder Fighting for 11 Cross Border Fighting for 11 months. Can you put it into perspective given the events of this week. What is different about this moment . Hezbollah has been carrying about this moment . Hezbollah has been carrying out about this moment . Hezbollah has been carrying out Attacks L has been carrying out attacks saying it is supporting palestinians in gaza and it says the attacks will continue unless there is a ceasefire in gaza. All the efforts for a deal in Gaza Have failed so far, so that was the main hope to de escalate tensions along the border. What has changed is the border. What has changed is the israeli authorities have declared the return of residents displaced because of the violence is one of the Countrys War goals and they say they will change the situation in the north, that it is unacceptable and unsustainable, so there has been speculation the strategy by the israeli military could include a Ground Invasion of Southern Lebanon to try to create a so called Buffer Zone to try to push hezbollah fighters away. It has been a humiliating few days for hezbollah. Not only the explosions targeting Communication Systems but there was an israeli Air Strike in beirut On Friday and a residential building was destroyed. It hit a Hezbollah Stronghold so a major blow for the group because the entire command of hezbollah� s main Fighting Unit has been decimated in the Air Strike and a lot of civilians killed. This has sparked angry reaction here in lebanon. Again, the fear that we could be seeing an intensification between Hezbollah And Israel. Paul adams, HugoHezbollah And Israel.

Some rockets have hit further morning. Some rockets have hit further into israel than any previous further into israel than any previous salvos. The fact that the outskirts of haifa seem to have the outskirts of haifa seem to have been hit is indicative that have been hit is indicative that hezbollah is using some longer that hezbollah is using some longer range weapons, which raises longer range weapons, which raises the fear that hezbollah could raises the fear that hezbollah could start to unveil even longer could start to unveil even longer range weapons that could be capable of Hitting Targets in central israel, including tel aviv~ in central israel, including tel aviv.

Lets turn to germany, where voters in the east state of brandenburg are heading to the polls to elect a new regional government. The Anti Migrant, far right alternative for germany, also known as afd, could win the most votes in the former east german state. Earlier in the month, the afd won a major german election for the first time, coming first in the eastern state of thuringia. Latest polling In Brandenburg had the afd in the lead with 28 . 0ur Europe Correspondent tell me how significant these results could be. Me how significant these results could be. This is a state ruled results could be. This is a state ruled by results could be. This is a state ruled by the results could be. This is a state ruled by the social. State ruled by the Social Democratic Party since german reunification in 1990, so if that party loses brandenburg it will be a major setback for The Party and also 0laf Scholz who lives in the state and hopes to lead them into the federal elections next year. But according to polls, he is the least popular chancellor since reunification. If the spd came second to afd there would be deeper questions over his ability to lead The Party into those elections next year. Consider germanys history. We are talking about a country that lived through the nazis and the second World War and is now seeing a far right party classified in some states as right wing extremists, topping the polls in elections. When they won in thuringia. It was seen as a political earthquake, the biggest electoral victory for the far right since the second World War. If they win here it would be a major shock to germans who feel concerned about the far right Anti Migrant positions of that party, but it has capitalised on voter concerns about immigration, the cost of supporting ukraine, and of young people across germany who are hungry for change and an end to the old political establishment here. ~. ,. ,.

The Spd LeaderIn Brandenburg said he would resign if The Party comes second to the afd. Even though they might not get into office in the regional election, even if not able to get into office and former government in next years federal election, what they are showing which we are seeing in europe, rising support for the far right, the strength of the far right which has managed to shake up the political establishment across europe. It is capitalising on concerns about immigration. You remember in 2016 at the height of the migration crisis, Germany Letting 1. 5 million migrants and they were welcomed and change by angela merkel. This is a different germany, where migrants increasingly feel ostracised, threatened, where there is a weariness and attacks by migrants that have been seized upon by the afd to push their political message and that is the main reason that explains The Party rise. Here. Sir Keir Starmer has promised to show how his government will, in his words Fix The Foundations and rebuild the uk as the Labour Conference gets underway in liverpool. The partys first annual gathering while in powerfor 15 years comes amid criticism over donations and gifts accepted by some of the new cabinet and calls from Union Bosses for The Party to U Turn on its decision to cut Winter Fuel payments for pensioners.

Angela rayner said she did not recognise those reports. Keir starmer has addressed the issue of the leaks in an interview with the observer and said he accepts he observer and said he accepts he has a responsibility to get a grip on that. What The Party will hope now conference has kicked off is they can take back control of the News Agenda to put across their messaging about what they are doing in government. You can see there are slogans of change begins around me. We will hear today about housing, plans to try to create more houses and give a Default Planning Permission if you like to particular houses that meet certain criteria in the way they are designed to try to speed up House Building which is one of labours or missions. They have talked about reforms to right to buy and Angela Rayner talked about that today because she bought her home many years ago through right to buy and said she could not put into words how much it meant to be able to own her own home so she believed right to buy could continue but she said the last government had made the last government had made the discount to large and that is something she will look at. Todayis is something she will look at. Today is Housing Day and as we go through the week we tend to have a theme to each day so we will get different bits of policy as the week goes on.

Nearly all pensioners will have to have Pension Credit to claim it. We see that has been a controversial decision and he suggested he will push on with the things that need doing, and we have seen an Opinion Poll come out, just one, that suggested his personal Approval Ratings have taken a large hit over the past couple of months and he is less popular than Rishi Sunak was, again within the context of one poll, but not the ideal way to go into this conference with, i would suggest.

To the us, where Donald Trump has declined to take part in a second televised debate with his democratic rival, Kamala Harris ahead of Novembers President ial election. On friday, Vice President harris accepted an invitation from cnn to go head to head with Mr Trump at The End of october. In a statement, her campaign said, Donald Trump shoud have no problem agreeing to this debate, it is the same Format And Setup as the Cnn Debate he attended and said he won in june. But, speaking at a Campaign Rally in North Carolina on saturday, the republican nominee said he wouldnt be sharing the stage with his rival again. Ive already done two one with crooked Joe Biden at cnn and the other one with kamala on abc. Cnn was very fair, i thought. Joe was driven out of the race it was a coup, by the way, but he was driven out of the race. And theyve been widely criticised by the radical left lunatics for all of the fairness. They were very fair. In other words, they wont be fair again. The problem with another debate is that its just too late. Voting has already started. We can get some of the other days news. Frances president , emmanuel macron, has unveiled his new cabinet which bring an end to three months of political paralysis since a Snap General Election produced a hung parliament.

Anthonyjoshuas hopes of becoming a three time world heavyweight Boxing Champion have been dashed after he was knocked out by Daniel Dubois in the fifth round in front of a record 96,000 fans at londons wembley stadium. Dubois, who retained the ibf heavyweight championship, Dropped Joshua multiple times before the referee called the fight off. Anthonyjoshua said the loss would not stop him from rebuilding but did admit he and his team came up short. 0ur sports reporter, ade adedoyin, watched the fight at wembley. Well, what a performance and a win by Daniel Dubois, who stunned the Boxing World with this brilliant upset win against anthonyjoshua. He came in as the underdog despite being the champion, and if there were any nerves, he showed no signs of it dominating proceedings right from the opening bell. He had joshua down in the Opening Round and from there on, it was one way traffic. Joshua showed a tremendous amount of courage to stay in this contest for as long as he did. He looked out on his feet, but somehow he rallied. And in the fifth round, just when it looked like he was getting a foothold in the contest, it was nailed by a thunderous right hand which put him down and out. A brilliant win for Daniel Dubois, a man who back in 2020, suffered a career ending eye injury. Last year he fought 0leksandr Usyk for the title and was stopped in that bout, and that raised questions as to whether he had the temperament to compete at this level. Well, he answered his critics in emphatic style this evening, and this victory will open the doorfor a potential Unification Bout against either Tyson Fury or 0leksandr Usyk next year. As for anthonyjoshua, well, its back to the drawing board. Before we let you go we will recap the Breaking News. A Mass Shooting in alabama that left at least four people dead and dozens wounded. This is what we know. Police say multiple shooters fired on a group of people in a district of birmingham just after 11pm local time. In terms of the figures, we know two men and woman were found dead at the scene. A fourth victim died at a local hospital. With us. Hello, again. Weve seen some pretty intense thunderstorms over the last 24 hours. In fact, throughout saturday into sunday morning, there was about 13,000 Lightning Strikes across the uk. And throughout this afternoon, we are still looking at something thundery downpours, particularly across parts of wales, midlands and southern areas of england. Just look at the brighter colours there where you will get those thunderstorms this afternoon. There could be some flash flooding, some frequent Lightning And Hail mixed in with that as well. Sunny spells in north West England, northern ireland, through much of scotland as well. But for central and eastern scotland, the North East of england, it is likely to stay quite cloudy once again and temperatures on the North Sea coasts, 14 15c. Further south, not quite as warm as it was yesterday, but temperatures 20 21c. There may be some brighter skies in the South East. And of course today is the autumn equinox, not quite equal Day And Night yet, but you will notice sunset is around about seven oclock this evening. Those nights really are starting to draw in. For the rest of the evening, we will see those thundery downpours continuing across parts of wales, midlands, southern areas of england. You may get woken up in the night from the Odd Rumble of thunder here. Further north, again, a fairly quiet night to come with some clear skies across scotland. Temperatures here could get down into mid single figures. Further south, another mild night, really. Temperatures no lower than 14 15. But monday is looking very wet again. Especially for parts of North East england, down through the midlands, south West England as well. After all the Rainfall Weve seen over the last few days, more on monday could lead to further disruption. Sunny spells in the South East. The odd isolated thunderstorm here. But again, the driest, quietest of the weather across scotland and northern ireland, sunshine in the west, a bit more cloud the further east you are. For the rest of the week, we lose this area of low pressure giving us the thunderstorms at the moment and then we will see another area of low pressure moving from the atlantic through wednesday and that could bring us some pretty wet and windy conditions. And as it starts to clear away, we open the door up to a colder, northerly wind. You can see the air coming all the way from the arctic. By friday, spreading into southern areas of the uk. Temperatures will drop away as the week goes on. Feeling more like autumn. Quite mixed with the wet and windy weather. By friday, temperatures at best 8 11, 12 degrees. Goodbye. This is bbc news. The headlines. Israel has come under attack from a barrage of rockets fired by hezbollah. The strikes following an israeli strike in lebanon On Friday which killed at least 45 people.
