Is a very dangerous l moments, and we heard from the command saying that they will soon get the message, and other as we can do this from the air. Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu described it is complemented and the defense minister, when they put the bringing of israel eat residents back to our homes in Northern Israel, on their list of war aims, Northern Israel, on their list of waraims, he Northern Israel, on their list of war aims, he said there were risks and opportunities, the opportunities is they see hezbollah the we can dial after the widespread indiscriminate pager attacks that mutilated or killed Hezbollah Members, middle racking middle ranking, the isis nations that are killing top commanders, they believe this is the time to strike but there are risks. If this this if this does end up, as you mentioned, in a Ground Invasion to try to establish a buffer on the other side of the border, history tells us that it will be very costly, and hezbollah has significantly reinforced his defenses along that southern border will stop hassan nasrallah, recently taunted israel and said, and gets us, we are waiting for you, so i think we have to watch it Day By day, but in the past year, we have seen In Gaza is escalating Military Tactics and now again we seem to be seen its on the Lebanon Israel Front and it is hard to see now how they will come back from the brink, but everyone is seen they do not want an all out war, with every month that passes the region seem to get closer to it. Passes the region seem to get closer to it closer to it. Lyse doucet, thank you closer to it. Lyse doucet, thank you for closer to it. Lyse doucet, thank you for that closer to it. Lyse doucet, thank you for that assessment, talking about the wider situation we are in but also giving us the latest details on that strike in beirut that we have been hearing about my targeted another senior hezbollah commander, so that the latest from least to set. For i go back to beirut, i want to play a few voices, people there in the lebanese camp capital, talking about what is happening and their fears. The situation has to be under control and may god protect all the people there. The thing that is happening is far away from humanity, and this should not be happening. The current situation in lebanon is very bad. We are getting bombed everywhere by our enemies, israel. I believe that if a Total War happens, you should stand as lebanese people together, regardless of our political affiliations because at The End of the day of our country is getting bombed. Yes, of course, i am very. Scared of the war escalated because it will cause a lot of disaster, especially around the area. And it would stop all the students from going to university and work, and it is very scary at the moment, and i hope nothing escalates more. I that is the hope that nothing escalates more, but throughout the course of the day, it is escalated and escalated. Lets go back to beirut and to lina, an interesting listening to those voices and the Alarm And Panic amongst so many ordinary lebanese citizens, what are the Countries Politician saying . There is wider condemnation on the political level air. The Prime Minister was due to go to New York for the Security Council and he canceled his trip because of the situation. He said it is not the right time and pleaded for all leaders to condemn israeli attacks in lebanon, but things have got worse since then, and it is getting worse by the minute, it seems, and what israel is trying to do is actually pushing people to be more angry against israel, and more angry against israel, and more cited with hezbollah. Although people have fled their homes and lost their homes, many lives were lost, and people do not want a full fledged war, they want to live in peace, they want to continue with their lives, but the consequences of what is happening would not stop here without a written Reaction Or Retaliation from hezbollah. Hezbollah leaders have been very cumulative because ebony hit hard, there was a Security Breach with the situation on pitchers, their locations and people are being targeted, their leaders are being assassinated, so it is hard to see they would not response, and in response any bigger scale from here was only make things worse in the country. Thank you, lena, lets go back tojerusalem and daniela, and danielle they have given regular updates the idf, on and the Prime Minister, about what theyre currently doing. Thats of answers about the use of their air force, but they been consistently asked about is a Ground Invasion coming . What are the scenes of that question . fist what are the scenes of that question . What are the scenes of that cuestion . �. , question . At the moment the line from question . At the moment the line from the question . At the moment the line from the israeli question . At the moment the line from the israeli Minutesl Line from the israeli Minutes Military line from the israeli Minutes Military is that at the Moment Military is that at the moment they are country sitting on Air Moment they are country sitting on Air Strikes. I think that it will on Air Strikes. I think that it will not on Air Strikes. I think that it will not stop the questions because the goal they set for themselves is really a question about themselves is really a question about whether that can be achieved through Air Strikes alone~ achieved through Air Strikes alone. They have said they are going alone. They have said they are going to alone. They have said they are going to stop Hezbollah Capacity from Firing Rockets into capacity from Firing Rockets into israel, and they want to destroy into israel, and they want to destroy the infrastructure that hezbollah has built up in Southern Lebanon in particular, and they Southern Lebanon in particular, and they want to push back hezbollahs members from the Border Hezbollahs members from the border. Despite these very extensive air Strikes Today and over extensive air Strikes Today and over the extensive air Strikes Today and over the previous days, and really over the previous days, and really over a long time now, mobile really over a long time now, Mobile Phone Rings is still Firing Rockets in, so it will is still Firing Rockets in, so it will remain a question about whether it will remain a question about whether It Ground Incursion occurs whether It Ground Incursion occurs. � whether It Ground Incursion occurs. � , occurs. And as has been referred occurs. And as has been referred to, occurs. And as has been referred to, israel occurs. And as has been referred to, israel has i occurs. And as has been. Referred to, israel has been into lebanon before and got burned by doing that before, so therell also be a debate about whether that is actually something that it can going and would be up to group get out again and achieve what you want to achieve . Either moment, they are saying there was stick to air campaigns, are saying there was stick to aircampaigns, but are saying there was stick to air campaigns, but the debates and questions will go on until they meet their goal. At the moment, they have not met their goal because rockets are still coming in from hezbollah. Thank you for the latest where you are, daniel, and us underlining before we break that israel seen they conducted a targeted strike in beirut, saying they targeted a senior hezbollah commander, so when there are pictures in more detail, we will return to that. Around the world and across the uk. This is bbc news. The uk chancellor, Rachel Reeves has used herfirst Labour Conference Speech since the general election to promise that therell be no return to austerity. After weeks of warnings about the dire state of the public finances, she tried to convey a brighter message, saying she is optimistic about the uks economic future. I know that the country has felt far off in recent years, our growth in Productivity And Family finances are all behind. He doesnt have to be that way. The british capacity for Inventiveness And Enterprise and old fashioned Hard Work has not gone away, so believe me when i say, my optimism for britain grows brighter than ever. Live from liverpool and our political correspondent alex forsyth. Alex the chancellor there has been accused of talking about Doom And Gloom and a second wave of austerity, clearly trying to give a different message, but also trying to draw a line from all of those stories that have dominated about donations and freebies. How have delegates thought she has done in terms of all of that . ,. , that . You are right in the labour that . You are right in the labour party. That . You are right in the labour party, the that . You are right in the labour party, the governments, has been keen to try and wrest the narrative back to what they want to talk about during the course of this conference instead of the conversation about rebates, and in the Speech Today from Rachel Reeves, we had a different tone from the chancellor, she had been accused of being too gloomy and the fear around that would be a knock on effect on Consumer Confidence and business investment, so there was more optimism but at the same time she spoke about the tough decisions that were said tough decisions that were said to come. The difference is that the government are trained to do more explaining to people as to why they are doing what theyre doing. Rachel reeves has spoken about the prize at The End of the pain, her argument being if the economy is stable and we get economic growth and investing public services, everyone feels better off. Interestingly, she mentioned the Winter Fuel payments, which as we know are going to be cut for millions of pensioners this winter. The chancellor, Rachel Reeves, address this directly and said she thought it was the right choice given the economic inheritance the government said it was left with, though the tories dispute that, but that is a real point of contention at this conference. Unions here are still pushing for the government to budge when it comes to Winter Fuel payments, though the signals from the Chancellor Today is that they will not. �. , Chancellor Today is that they will not. ,. , will not.

It could be at the Tail End of the conference, when some people might have left already, and there is some unhappiness amongst the unions about this, because they wanted it to come to the forefront of the debate taking place here in conference. Broadly, this is the Labour Partys Verse conference is a party in power among the press with the Labor Chancellor and Prime Minister in 14 years after those long years of opposition, and there was a sense of celebration here, and the Chancellor Today was trying to inject a sense of hope, but having said all of that, with the backdrop to this conference, the questions over diffs and Hospitality Design briefings on downing Street Staff and the contention about Winter Fuel payments, its a conference that has had some wobbles. �.

Lawyers representing alleged victims of Sexual Assault by Mohamed Al fayed say theyve had 150 new inquiries. It follows a Bbc Documentary last week which alleged the former Harrods Owner raped and sexually abused dozens of women. 0ur reporter, Alison Freeman has more details. He had No Doubt in his mind that his advances were unwelcome and nonconsensual. I kicked and kicked and kicked and kicked and screamed, and again ive got him off, and i was just terrified. I believed he was attempting to rape me. The harrowing stories of the women who suffered abuse at the hands of Mohamed Al fayed revealed in a Bbc Documentary last week. And since it was aired, lawyers representing those women say another 150 allegations of Sexual Misconduct against the former Harrods Owner have been made. I knew that this would be the start of a conversation. One of the things that is, you know, particularly new for me is that i am starting to get contact from women where the timeline might be longer than we think, potentially before harrods and maybe even afterwards. Allegations were made against Mohamed Al fayed on six occasions between 2008 and 2023, but no charges were ever brought. His death last year at the age of 94 means criminal Charges Cant be brought now, so lawyers representing the women say they are now planning on bringing a civil case against harrods. They failed to protect their workers, and that is a very serious matter. When you have so many ladies coming forward saying that they were horrifically abused and that the company did nothing to prevent it, in fact arguably the opposite, where they sought to enable it in certain cases and certainly cover it up. Harrods current owners have apologised to the women. They say they are utterly appalled by the allegations and are doing everything they can to fix things. The businessman also owned Fulham Fc at the time. It says it is deeply troubled by the allegations and is in the process of establishing whether anyone at the club is or has been affected. The documentary has been a watershed moment, with many more people who were previously afraid speaking out. There are women that have come forward alleging Sexual Assault. There are also men coming forward, people who have worked there for a significant period of time, who wish to give more information, so it is a very changing picture at the moment and i think more is to come.

Head to the Bbc Website because there is a Life Page running with all the latest information, the latest pictures, and the latest analyses from rbc teams. Hello. The weather is continuing to cause some significant disruption out there. Weve got some intense rainfall that is leading to Flooding Problems for some across parts of central and Southern England in particular. Heres the radar from the past few hours showing where weve had the heaviest of the rain already. Its been particularly persistent for parts of central and Southern England here, where we do have an Amber Warning in force from the met office. Thats valid until 9. 00pm this evening for the likes of bristol, northampton, as well. Weve already seen some severe flooding and i think its not going to improve in a hurry as that rainfalljust continues to be persistent and slow moving. It is all down to this area of low pressure. Eventually, it will start to ease away towards the east as we head through into the evening hours, but weve certainly got another few hours of rainfall across the region. Also some wet weather for parts of northern england, the far north of scotland too, but elsewhere some drier conditions as we head through this evening and overnight, as well. A lot of cloud through the uk tonight, so were not going to be seeing a particularly chilly night. Temperatures holding up between about eight to 13 degrees to start your tuesday morning. Tuesdays weather does improve certainly compared to today as that low pressure clears towards the east. Still a bit of early rainfall for parts of East Anglia and the south east. More wet weather moving in across northern and eastern parts of scotland, where it is also going to be quite breezy, as well. For the rest of the uk, Sunny Spells, a few showers around, but certainly not as heavy or as frequent as weve seen over the past few days. Top temperatures between about ten to 18 degrees north to south on tuesday. Looking towards the middle of the week, weve got another area of low pressure on the way, this time approaching from the south west. There is a bit of uncertainty about exactly when and where were going to be seeing that rainfall by wednesday, but it does look like eventually it will start to turn pretty wet across parts of Southern England. The breeze will certainly pick up through the english channel, as well. The rest of the uk having a little bit of a better day, so some sunshine, perhaps the odd shower around. It is starting to feel a bit cooler, though, for Northern Areas particularly, at around about ten to 13 degrees. In the south, about 16 17. All that wet weather gradually shifts its way a little bit further north. As we move through the overnight period and through thursday, it looks like much of england and wales will see further spells of fairly heavy rain. Gusty winds around some of that wet weather. Scotland and Northern Ireland probably faring a little bit better with Sunny Spells and scattered showers. 11 16 degrees by thursday, so those temperatures gradually coming down through the course of the week. By The End of the week it looks like the worst of the rainfall will tend to ease away, but those temperatures on the cool side. Bye bye. This is bbc news, the headlines. Explosion. The lebanese Health Ministry says more than 270 people have been killed, including women, children and paramedics in the heaviest Israeli Bombardment yet, in the south of the country.
