Hospitals have been inundated with those injured and they are very traumatised Health Workers and Front Line workers. But we are flying in emergency medical supplies, we have flown in 100 medical tonnes last weekend and this week, but it is difficult to find those aircraft to come in and deliver the goods. We are doing what we can with what we have on the ground but time is of the essence given the magnitude of the crisis and the level of injuries we are dealing with, and facilities, and trying to get clean Drinking Water to people to survive. You mentioned people are sleeping in their cars but they are on the Streets and in they are on the Streets and in the beach, they are taking shelter under bridges. It is a really catastrophic situation this morning and we can still see where the bombings have taken place all throughout the night and have continued this morning. In terms of logistics, what we have been witnessing in gaza, well aware of the difficulties and struggles of moving age around and getting the logistics in place, clearly a very different situation in lebanon.

It is a very volatile situation and has a lot of risk for our teams were just to move around and deliver this assistance. We have packed ten tracks overnight ready to deploy at seven oclock this morning. As soon as it was safe to do so. We are now loading up another 20 tracks of whatever size we can get but it is very, very difficult to know, given the Evacuation Orders are continuing. In the last 20 minutes, we havejust been continuing. In the last 20 minutes, we have just been told to evacuate another hospital in the Southern Suburbs of beirut. We are in talks with the Ministry Team to try to make sure there are places for it, these people who are being evacuated. We have also received an urgent request to mobilise more Health Teams in addition to what had already been mobilised. Also looking at further medical equipment and supplies.

Professor Paul Moorcroft is a commentator on military strategy, he gave this reaction to my colleague lewis. This could be the trigger for a major conflict in the Middle East. What does that mean . There could be a third intifada on the west bank. More fighting, the saudis get sucked into their what was called that vietnam against the hutus. It is happening at the same time. Two major wars could undermine the system. Suddenly you get tough long term leaders like Putin And Netanyahu being resistant to world pressure. This is popular in israel, unlike what was happening in gaza. There was a great demand amongst the israeli population to have a Go At Hezbollah and not only to return the 60,000 israelis who had been moved out. Although it is not generally known in my new book which is out this week, israels forever war, the israeli Air Force was about to go after hezbollah in the first few hours after the 7th Of October when hamas attacked. This could be one of the most dangerous period since the missile crisis. It is a pattern, it is happening over and again. And she mentioned in your introduction. Hassan nasrallah came into power because of a previous assassination. Hezbollah is a movement, it is more than one man. That Fine Point which is important, israel wants to restore its deterrence, it lost its deterrence massively during the hamas attack. That was not mossad, that was military intelligence failure, a massive one. Mossad, the external intelligence is still very effective and has been proving that in the last few weeks by Pinpoint Accuracy in killing the leadership of hezbollah. Whether there will be a ground invasion, i am whether there will be a ground invasion, iam not whether there will be a ground invasion, i am not sure. Whether there will be a ground invasion, iam not sure. The israelis have learned surely from their previous two incursions but this could be a major war. The israelis hope it is defamed by decapitating the leadership, it will reduce the pressure. I dont think so. It all depends on the reaction of iran. It is holding back missiles. That massive amount of accurate weaponry is mainly to do with deterrence of america, not so much the israelis. America, not so much the israelis israelis. In the immediate term, israelis.

It is much better defended, much better forces, it is much better defended, much betterforces, much better trained by the iranians may have tremendous faith. I probably think they will fight on. They will take a few days reorganise. The Control Centre has been destroyed by very good israeli intelligence and terrible tactics. It is not strategy. Those pages having ended the war, they have angered people. A lot of lebanese do not like them, particularly sunnis. Some feel hezbollah represents lebanese resistance. What will they do . Iran could fire more missiles in the next few weeks. Probably that will happen. In the next few weeks. Probably that will happen. Do in the next few weeks. Probably that will happen.

It is unfortunate i the most powerful country in the most powerful country in the world, america, has a president who we do not know if he can walk straight, let alone think straight. At the moment the americans have no influence at all. We see that when netanyahu made his speech at the united nations, it was totally ignoring the ceasefire demands because that is the core. How do you stop this . Well, we all know you have to have a two state solution. Before that ceasefire in gaza. Before that ceasefire in gaza. Before that, a ceasefire in lebanon. That is asking a lot when you have no leadership at all in america. As i mentioned, the attacks on hezbollah, removing the Hezbollah Threat against Northern Israel is very popular. There are no hostages there. It is very popular in israel. Netanyahu is. He is determined. He talks about victory. There is a feeling the israelis, for once and for all, of course it will not happen because he is totally hostile to a two state solution, he still believes military victory is possible. There is no Military Solution for what is happening in the Middle East. There has to be a political settlement. That means netanyahu has to be removed, not assassinated. He may lose the next election whenever it comes. ~. ,. , comes. We want to bring you some breaking comes. We want to bring you some Breaking News comes. We want to bring you some Breaking News from. Comes. We want to bring you l some Breaking News from iran, on the back of the news of the killing of Hassan Nasrallah by Israeli Military strikes, according to the Israeli Military. Reuters News Agency is now reporting that irans Supreme Leader has been transferred to a secure location inside the country with heightened Security Measures in place. The Reuters News agency, they are quoting two regional officials who briefed them, told reuters that irans Supreme Leader has been transferred to a secure location inside the country with heightened Security Measures in place. Iran, clearly a hacker measures in place. Iran, clearly a backer of hezbollah. Sources said to the Reuters News agency that iran was in constant contact with Lebanons Hezbollah and other regional proxy groups to determine their next steps after israel announced it had Killed hezbollah chief, Hassan Nasrallah on friday. Reporting a reaction to the news that iran has taken steps to increase security around the Supreme Leader and he has been transferred to a secure location inside the country with heightened Security Measures in place. My my Colleague Anna Foster is in david and i spoke to her. We had a huge david and i spoke to her. Had a huge series of explosions just a few kilometres away from where i am in dahieh in the Southern Suburbs, a iran stronghold. This will very quickly pictures of absolute destruction, whole buildings were wrecked. Israel said they were wrecked. Israel said they were targeting the headquarters of iran and quickly went on to say, is certain to be confirming Behind The Scenes the target of that was Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of hezbollah. What is interesting at this point is here we actually do micro who we use for our official confirmation. We like to tell you how these things work Behind The Scenes. Israel is suggesting this morning, as you said quite rightly, Hassan Nasrallah was Killed in that strike last night. However, what we havent heard yet is anything clarifying from hezbollah or indeed from iran. That will be crucial in one way or another. They are combing through the rubble here. It was interesting last night, my colleague went down to the scene and hezbollah, often they will let journalists and for a short period of time to report on what has happened. I did that the day before. Yesterday, immediately afterwards when they were stopping anybody going anywhere near the scene. They are still combing through it. We still have a reasonably low Death Toll only six people Killed but we expect that to increase as they go through the rubble, go through the Damage And Disruption and work out what is happening there. But i think we are waiting for now is some kind of statement but i do from Hezbollah Or Iran and what has happened to Hassan Nasrallah. Israel had very sophisticated networks, when you look at what they had been doing in Southern Beirut in the last week or so can they have managed to kill several top hezbollah commanders. Their Intelligence And Weaponry is capable of doing that. Hassan nasrallah is on a different level, a totemic figure within hezbollah, fa said the organisation. He has been a big target for them. If they have successfully Killed him that will be seen in israel as a huge success, it will be seen by supporters of hezbollah is a huge blow. In iran, one final thought, what we were seeing Coming Out Of A Run Last Night was also interesting. The first sort of messaging as he was fine, he was well and safe. That started to change very slightly and they were saying that any organisation that has only to have somebody in place ready to take over. Then theres period, more than 12 hours, of silence from hezbollah, from iran. No confirmation one way or another. That i think will be the key. We continue to watch and wait for some kind of statement so we can work out exactly what the result was in that case of the strike last night. From a civilian perspective, the result was many people were wounded and we expect to hear many more than the current Death Toll of six have been Killed. In the current Death Toll of six have been Killed. The current Death Toll of six have been Killed. In a sense about the have been Killed. In a sense about the impact have been Killed.

They have suffered multiple crises. We have talked about than before, whether electricity, medicines, fuel. Life in Beirut And Lebanon in general has been difficult in recent years. The sense of notices today, not just people in the capital but many people right across the country, to see a strike of this size, we are not typically at a time of war, although that sounds strange to say, what is the official definition of war . We keep hearing about there is of a new war, fears of a new phase of the war. It was the scale of what happened last night when there is a huge explosion and Air Strikes which continued till about three oclock this morning. People receiving those messages from the idf telling them to evacuate the area. Where do you go in a city like that . We saw overnight and this morning people fleeing and gathering their bags and their families and getting out of that area. We know there are people. If you look behind me you can see the beautiful mask with a blue dome, in front of it is martyrs square. People have been sleeping and sitting in the square overnight. People on the cornish, the area by the water, people who basically dont have anywhere to go at the moment because while the strikes are continuing when they feel they are not safe and they have been told to go and efforts have been made to try to open Reception Centres in different parts of the capital, to use schools to house people, as they have been doing this so many tens of thousands of families who have left the south of lebanon. At the moment, the mood is incredibly difficult. They remember their war of 2006, they remembered the Civil War and they know what this could look like if escalation continues. A short time ago i spoke to miri izin, a former colonel for Israel Defense forces and the director of the international institute for Counter Terrorism at reichman university, whos in Tel Aviv and said this is a game changer. This is a new day. Hassan szala was the Secretary General of hezbollah, the Terror Organisation designated as such by the uk, the eu. The western world. He willed for 32 years, he was an orator, a figure. He also was the main digger that amassed an enormous amount of weapons inside lebanon. There was this headquarters of hezbollah. Inside were rockets and missiles. One of the Places Attack this morning. Israeli defense forces put out a notice because it was iranian land to Sea Missiles which could have threatened any of the shipping inside the eastern mediterranean. We are talking about the disappearance of an important figure and a new time for us in and around here. Aha, for us in and around here. A new time. Is this a provocation . Is it an escalation .

For the last 11 and a half for the last 11 and a half months, hezbollah has attacked israel every single day. 70,000 israelis were moved from their homes. We did it at the beginning of the will because they had planned to do in October The 7th attack with their forces. October the 7th attack with theirforces. They October The 7th attack with their forces. They had October The 7th attack with theirforces. They had been practising it under the leadership of Hassan Nasrallah. It shows the restraint we have had. This was not provocative at all. This is israel trying to go through with negotiations, trying to go through the different aspects and when everything else fails, this is about defending and stopping this horrific Terror Organisation which is bad for lebanon and the world, notjust israel.

Well iran joining . What missiles. Well iranjoining . What is happening is israel is degrading the islamic regime of irans main force. I do not want any walk i do not want October The 7th, i didnt want hezbollah to be training as they were to do what they were training against israel. Right now, i want to hope israeli deterrence, the capability to the capabilities we have will be enough to deter an all out war. � be enough to deter an all out war. ~ ,. ,. , war. And i said it shall have been calling war. And i said it shall have been calling for war. And i said it shall have been calling for a war. And i said it shall havej been calling for a ceasefire, 21 day ceasefire. So far not much sign the israeli government is interested in that. How do you think Developments Today Change that . 21 days are telling is time to allow hezbollah to be on the offensive. They had attacked israel into israeli communities for the last 11. 5 months. Calls for the last 11. 5 months. Calls for a ceasefire were only going to help hezbollah. When israel went on the initiative in the last ten days, including the attack last night, it changes it but it is not over. Hezbollah has enormous force, we had been degrading it. I am still very scared. Infantry terror forces on the other side of the border in lebanon. Lots of the border in lebanon. Lots of footage showing them as they were training to attack israel. What if they decide to come in and do an attack on israel and take hostages . And do an attack on israel and take hostages . Given that, Do Ou Want take hostages .

Would be no Ground Incursion or otherthings. I would be no Ground Incursion or other things. I cannot tell my friends at north, let alone the 70,000 civilians who had been evacuated from October Of 2023 to go home. Hezbollah are still a threat, we have degraded and definitely change the equation but they are still a threat directly against israel. Thank ou. In a video released by the Israeli Military after it reported the killing, the army chief, Herzi Halevi said the attack had been in preparation for a long time and there was more to come from israels military. This is not our only tour. Lets be very clear, there are other tools to follow and the message is a clear message. Anyone who threaten citizens of the state of israel, we will know how to reach them. In the north, in the south, in far away places. Eventually, after a long period of preparation of our many strategies for lebanon, we have started to implement them. This strike has been in preparation for a long time and was carried out at the right time in a very sharp way. And now we are starting to prepare their next moves. I underscore once again, we are at high readiness on all fronts, all ourforces we are at high readiness on all fronts, all our forces are organised together, there will be good coordination, very good preparation. One of those comments seeming to at a Military Briefing that of the idf, the Israel Defense forces. Lets take you live to beirut and look at the live pictures. Over the last couple of hours there has still been smoke rising above the city. Attacks are continuing this morning as well as the overnight attacks, where we believed overnight that Hassan Nasrallah had been targeted by the idf and then confirmation came from the Israel Defense forces saying that according to them they have Killed the Hezbollah Leader, Hassan Nasrallah, in the strikes on friday in beirut. I should the strikes on friday in beirut. Ishould point the strikes on friday in beirut. I should point out hezbollah itself has yet to comment. We did Hearfrom A Newsagency Quoting sources in hezbollah, unconfirmed, that they had lost contact on friday with Hassan Nasrallah but that is as far as it goes. No formal Statement Or Confirmation from hezbollah. As for Hassan Nasrallah, a hugely important figure. Our correspondence in the region have been underscoring what a moment this is. Hugo the Jaeger Underground saying this is a very dangerous moment in the Middle East with unpredictable consequences. On the ground. Hello. Some welcome dry weather for much of this weekend in areas hit badly by floods through the past week, but there is more rain to come. Our Rainfall Forecast Chart showing the amounts between now and tuesday, shows that whilst scotland is dry across england and wales, mainly from later sunday onwards, we could widely see around 20 to 30mm darker spots. Even more than that, and these areas could change a little bit there. Nothing untoward for this time of year, but given the fact the ground is so saturated, the risk of flooding could return for one or two. So worth keeping an eye on the forecast before that wet and windy weather arrives later on sunday, though a lot of dry and bright weather to come certainly through today. Best of the sunshine to the south and the east continues, although a bit more cloud compared with the morning. More cloud over northern england, scotland, Northern Ireland will bring one or two spots of rain, more particularly though across the highlands, hebrides, orkney and in towards argyll and bute, vast majority staying dry. And after a chilly start this morning, its going to stay on the cool Side Today at around 11 to 15 degrees. Rain to start with tonight, then across the far north of scotland pushing its way towards shetland. Some clearer skies at times elsewhere. And whilst it might not be quite as chilly as last night for some of you, four or five degrees in some eastern towns and cities could get lower than that in countryside. To give you a bit of a sunday chill, but under a ridge of high pressure, many will be dry. The Big Change comes from this spiralling its way in a next area of Rain Bearing low pressure with it, though some stronger winds. Winds touching Gale Force quite quickly towards the southwest. The rain spreading in towards the southwest. Wales and Northern Ireland in the morning, on and off elsewhere. Bright Start Cloud increasing. Best of the weather. The further north you are across scotland. Exception being shetland. Further showers to come here though as we go through sunday, and then heavier bursts of rain into the southwest later as The Rain eventually arrives into the midlands. Another cool day by and large. A wet and windy evening then with gales around southern coast. The more persistent rain starts to push its way in by this stage, as a low pressure through Sunday Night into monday works its Way Eastwards and stalls where it stalls will dictate who sees the heaviest of The Rain. One thing to keep an eye on at the moment, though, it looks like it could be parts of east anglia, northern england. Sunshine and showers to the south. More persistent rain in Northern Ireland. A brighter day to the North East of scotland, but Feeling Cold in the wind. And some of that rain could linger into tuesday. Hello and welcome to bbc news. Im anna foster, live in beirut. We bring you up today with the story this morning. Israel says it has Killed Hezbollah Leader Hassan Nasrallah in Air Strikes last night. It is important to say that hezbollah has not confirmed this, we havent heard anything from iran either. Every israel certainly seen this morning saying, as far as its intelligence is concerned, they have Killed Hassan Nasrallah. A key target of theirs. We watch the ongoing fighting between Israel And Hezbollah this week. It began with the Exploding Pagers and Walkie Talkies that belong to members of hezbollah here in lebanon. While israeli Air Strikes were going on, Hezbollah Firing rockets into israel. But last night we had a significant escalation when we had this huge a series of explosions that echoed around the whole of the capital. That, it seems, was a major attack on hezbollahs headquarters, which every lc was
