On the World Today. The art that ended up in the bin will understand how this work made out of cans caused a stir at a gallery in the netherlands. Welcome to the World Today an hour of international news from the bbc. Within the last hour, the israeli prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has told lebanese people to reject hezbollah, or lebanon would face War And Destruction � like gaza. The stark warning came in a video message, posted in a video message, online in english, in which Mr Netanyahu confirmed israel had killed the expected successor of the hezbollah leader, hassan nasrallah, and also said the next in line after him had been killed. Though, he didnt name anyone. Lets cross straight over to our chief international Correspondent Lyse Doucet is in tel aviv. A stark Warning Tonight from the israeli Prime Minister, not the israeli Prime Minister, not the first time he has spoken directly to the people of lebanon, but he is very much amplified the fears that many in lebanon now fear including in lebanon now fear including in Southern Lebanon where Israels Ground Operation is expanding and in the Capital Beirut which comes under nightly bombardment. If they want to avoid, in his words, being like Gaza And Everyone there knows what that means, then they should move against hezbollah. He is also keen on israel. By eliminating two of its now existing top commanders. Lets listen to a little bit more of what the Prime Minister had to say. You have an opportunity to save lebanon before it falls into the abyss of a long war that will lead to Destruction And Suffering like we see In Gaza. It doesnt have to be that way. Each of you can take a step for your future, even a small step. You can make a difference. I say to you, the people of lebanon. I say to you, the people of lebanon free your country from hezbollah so that this warcan end. Free your country from hezbollah so that your country can prosper again, so that future generations of lebanese and israeli children will know neither war nor bloodshed, but will finally live together in peace. Israeli prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, lets wait and see what lebanese leaders will say about that. What we have been hearing from them as they are expressing their growing alarm about the civilian casualties, the price that lebanon is paying for israels escalating Military Offensive including its spectacular tactical successes in wiping out pretty well all the Command Structure of hezbollah, and as weve been reporting tonight, every time a new person steps up to take over a leading position, israel is taking them out as well. I very strongly worded warning from the premises and stir and it comes on a day that israel announced it is expanding its Ground Operations in Southern Lebanon so all of this of course is raising Alarm Bells including all the way to New York at the un headquarters. Weve just had this statement from the Un Secretary general Antonio Guterres who says he has written to the israeli leader. I have written directly to Benjamin Netanyahu to express profound concern about Draft Legislation that could prevent unrwa from continuing its essential work in the occupied palestinian territory, such a measure palestinian territory, such a measure would suffocate efforts to reduce suffering tensions In Gaza, to reduce suffering tensions In Gaza, the to reduce suffering tensions In Gaza, the entire occupied palestinian territory. It would be a palestinian territory. It would be a catastrophe in what is already be a catastrophe in what is already an unmitigated disaster. Already an unmitigated disaster. ,. ,~. , disaster. He was speaking about a different issue, disaster. He was speaking about a different issue, speaking a different issue, speaking about The Future of the largest Aid Agency operating In Gaza, the un relief and works agency. The bbc had heard from Philippe Luz or any earlier about the vow from israel and to make sure that unrwa is closed down, per Minister Netanyahu is repeatedly said that unrwa, and it is words, is riddled with hamas members, terrorists and it seems as though it is now moving with legislation to declare unrwa a terrorist organisation. He had told us earlier in the day what a dangerous precedent that would send and now the Secretary General himself has written to the Prime Minister, well keep an eye on that. Joining me now is former foreign Affairs Minister of the Palestinian National Authority nasser al kidwa. From representative of palestine, thank you very much forjoining us. Since you just came after those words of concern by the Un Secretary general by the Moves Israel is taking including legislation to basically terminate unrwa, you know very well its operations, what would you say to that . Before that, i think that should before that, i think that should say enough to the israeli should say enough to the israeli Prime Minister. Frankly what israeli Prime Minister.

He was saying i will do what we say or was saying i will do what we say or we was saying i will do what we say or we will destroy lebanon and its say or we will destroy lebanon and its going to be a war. It will and its going to be a war. It will be and its going to be a war. It will be their fault. It wont it will be their fault.

President biden has warned that a huge Hurricane Bearing down on florida could be the worst storm there in a century. Hurricane milton is even more powerful than Hurricane Helene which killed at least 225 people, less than two weeks ago. A million residents have been told to leave their homes with the mayor of tampa saying if you stay, you will die. 0ur Correspondent Will Grant reports. 0ur our own then rich has said that hurricane Hunters Aircraft have found that the Milton Hurricane is strengthening again, wind speeds estimated at around 250 kph, with stronger gusts which makes it a Top And Category four hurricane. 0ur Correspondent Will Grant reports. Florida is once again bracing itself for a storm of devastating power as Hurricane Milton bears down on the state, it brings 155 mile an hour winds, Heavy Rain and a life threatening storm surge. The national Hurricane Center has warned it poses an extremely serious threat, and an emergency has been declared in more than 50 counties. President biden has approved Disaster Funding and said milton could be one of the worst storms to hit florida in 100 years. You should evacuate now, now, now. You should have already evacuated. Its a matter of Life And Death. And thats not hyperbole. Its a matter of Life And Death. And the state authorities are using stark language too. This is literally catastrophic. And i can say without any dramatisation whatsoever, if you choose to stay in one of those evacuation areas, youre going to die. Little wonder theyre fleeing as people in florida know whats coming. Milton is due to make landfall in the same region battered by Hurricane Helenejust ten days ago. At least 225 people were killed in the us by helene, with hundreds more still missing. Preparations are being put in place, with Emergency Shelters set up and a converted Sports Stadium providing thousands of beds for rescue workers. These scenes are becoming all too familiar, with milton the tenth major storm this atlantic hurricane season, as Climate Change causes a warming of the seas, making such storms more frequent and more powerful. Milton clipped mexico as It Barrelled towards the us giving an indication of whats on its way. No matter how experienced floridians are with hurricanes, this remains a frightening storm coming at the worst possible moment. Will grant, bbc news, washington. Jessica furst is a nurse based in the Wesley Chapel Suburb of the tampa bay area, and she explained what the current situation is like on the ground where she is. We are not supposed to be evacuating. Were more inland. However, we have a bunch of the wind thats really concerning for us. As of right now, were supposed to be bunkering down, putting up Hurricane Shutters, and staying indoors. And have you been doing that . What sort of actions are you doing to protect yourself . Yes. My parents actually have a Hurricane Shutters on their house, so i will be evacuating to them, which is only ten minutes from my home here. My home here, im actually letting other people live in that, that have to evacuate from the water that are more on the coast. So i have family on the coast thats coming to My Townhome to stay in there. And what other measures are you taking to stay safe . Both, you know, for those in your house and also your parents. So basically you have to stock up on all the water. So if you can get to stores and grab as much water as you can, freeze a lot of water in your freezers, um, fill your bathtubs with water. So if we do happen to lose power and lose our water, then you have enough water saved up for you. A lot of people are boarding up their windows and putting sandbags out. I am not doing that with my home, for My Townhome. Were not in a Flood Zone really, but that is something that people are doing around my area. And you work in the medical field as well. Just tell me what youre doing to prepare. You know, work wise to help people when this hurricane comes. Yes. So we, i work with the Ems Agency for adventhealth Wesley Chapel West florida division. So we are all along from a Sebring Area up to 0cala through tampa. So all of our ambulances, we have to be all Hands On Deck, staff as many trucks as we can, because we do help with evacuations and off loading some of our facilities that are near the water. So bring all of our icu patients in any way that needs, you know, Critical Care to our other facilities for safety during the storm. We do Cease Operations when we do have sustained winds of aomph, which were clearly going to get that from the storm. And then it will be all Hands On Deck after right when the storm passes. We need to move all of the patients, help first responders if we can. How worrying is it . And how frightened are people where you are . And obviously you know, those in the worst affected zones, potentially as this storm comes in the next day or so. Um, its really worrisome here. I do have a lot of my Crew Members who live on the water. So the problem with what we do for work, if theyre not feeling safe to come into work, we cant have our trucks operating. So first of all, a safety of ourselves and our patients. Um, so its really difficult since we are so widespread with West Florida Division and all of our trucks are throughout. Its a struggle to try to staff everything so that we can help anybody that needs us during this time. And obviously, wevejust seen helene come into some of the same areas that are going to be hit again and people are still recovering from that. I mean, do you think you have had enough help from the authorities . I do believe we have. I mean, weve done a lot of Clean Up as much as we can, but now we have to prepare for another storm. So everyones been evacuating again after cleaning out their homes that they could by the water. And now its just all Hands On Deck, trying to find a safe place to go to get out of the storms path.

The main suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine Mccann has been acquitted by a court in germany of five unrelated charges three counts of rape and two of the Sexual Abuse of children. 0ur berlin correspondent, jessica parker, reports. In a trial that stretched on for eight months, Christian Bruckner faced five Sex Offence charges, including three of rape. They tried in his native germany, the offences were alleged to have happened in portugal over a 17 year period. Today he was cleared on all counts. Translation the verdict corresponds to what i, if you remember, 36 main trial days ago, also announced here in front of the press. It was foreseeable, at least from the Point Of View of the defence, that there can only be one result that corresponds to the factual and legal situation, and that is the acquittal. Because the findings of this court are not binding, so Christian Bruckner will stay in prison till september 25, and we will see if we have the possibility for a new Arrest Warrant in the next summer. Prosecutors in braunschweig have classed the Mccann Case as a murder inquiry, but bruckner, whos denied involvement, has never been charged over her disappearance. Currently injailfor a prior rape conviction, Todays Verdict means hes now due for release next year. Jessica parker, bbc news. Do stay with us here on bbc news, we are back in a few minutes with the latest. Hello again. Its been a mild but wet day for many of us today. Things are going to change in the next few days. Its going to turn drier, but its also going to turn colder. May well be some frost at night as well. Tonight, though, is going to be on the mild side because were keeping a lot of cloud. Its going to be very difficult to see the meteor shower. The really Heavy Rain that were seeing across the south, its going to move away into the north sea. Further north still some showery rain to come. And with all that cloud around, its going to be mild. Lowest temperatures will be in Northern Scotland at around 7 8 degrees. Now heading into tomorrow, were going to find some more showers breaking out for england and wales, not quite as many or as heavy as today, mind you, but theres more cloud in the north, bringing some rain down across Eastern Scotland into northeast england. Western scotland and Northern Ireland should be a bit drier here, but its going to feel colder across northern areas in particular. For all of us, temperatures will be a little Bit Lower than today, could reach 17 in the southeast where the winds are lighter, but its a northerly wind thats beginning to arrive across scotland, Northern Ireland and northern england, bringing that chill. There are some stronger winds here around the Bay Of Biscay on wednesday. Thats the remnants of ex hurricane kirk, thats going to miss our shores, going to slide up towards central parts of europe. But it does allow that northerly wind to push down across all areas. Dropping the temperatures as we head into thursday and an early frost in scotland. More cloud in the south will tend to break up many places. Well have a dry day on thursday. A few showers around these windward coasts and the strongest winds will be down the north sea, feeling quite cold here. For all of us though, temperatures are going to be a Bit Lower, may make ten degrees in the Central Belt of scotland and 12 across Southern Parts of england and wales, so quite a difference from what were seeing at the moment. Now, that northerly wind will move out of the way by the time we get to The End of the week. Westerly wind picking up actually in scotland and thats where were going to see more cloud and the Showery Rain Arriving as well. But elsewhere the winds will be light, could start with a touch of frost, but it should be a dry day with some sunshine around. But that cold air is still in place, so typical temperatures to end the week will be around 11 12 degrees. Now over the weekend, temperatures will rise just a little. Most of the rain is coming into Western Scotland and Northern Ireland. For much of england and wales it should be a dry weekend. Some early mist and fog, but otherwise some sunshine.
