on humanitarian aid workers. israel has called the incident on monday a mistaken air strike. the un has suspended overnight aid operations in the strip for at least 48 hours to evaluate security in the wake of the attack on monday. the head of the world central kitchen has accused israel of deliberately targeting its staff — something israel denies. this was not due to bad luck, a situation where cups we dropped the bomb in the wrong place or not. this was over 1.5, bomb in the wrong place or not. this was overi.5, 1.8 bomb in the wrong place or not. this was over 1.5, 1.8 kilometres with a very defined humanitarian aid convoy which had signs on the top, on the roof. we are obviously very proud of who we are and what we do. there is no wa in who we are and what we do. there is no way in the — who we are and what we do. there is no way in the world _ who we are and what we do. there is no way in the world that _ who we are and what we do. there is no way in the world that israel - no way in the world that israel would — no way in the world that israel would target people that come to -ive would target people that come to give people aid. that is nonsense. i'm sorry — give people aid. that is nonsense. i'm sorry. give us a bit of respect that— i'm sorry. give us a bit of respect that we _ i'm sorry. give us a bit of respect that we care _ i'm sorry. give us a bit

people that helped israel. we will never target people like this _ israel. we will never target people like this. i'm sure that there was a mistake _ like this. i'm sure that there was a mistake the —

details — unfortunately were killed all the details and we want to make sure it doesn't _ details and we want to make sure it doesn't happen again. here in the uk, three former supreme courtjustices have joined more than 600 lawyers and academics in calling for the government to end its weapons sales to israel. rishi sunak is facing growing pressure, after seven aid workers were killed in an israeli air strike — three of them were british. the 17—page letter cites the conclusion by the international court ofjustice that there is a plausible risk of genocide in gaza. in the document it reads: the provision of military assistance and material to israel may render the uk complicit in genocide as well as serious breaches of international humanitarian law. one of the signatories, the former supreme courtjustice, jonathan sumption, lord sumption, said the uk could notjust ignore its obligations. israel began this war because of what happened on the 7th of october, which was truly appalling. but the whole framework of international law governing war it takes that the fact that you have been provoked and attacked, however our rate justly, does not mean to say that you can do whatever you like. —— however outrageously. it doesn't mean that you can innocently slaughter civilians. it doesn't mean you can attack aid convoys, withdraw visas of aid workers. it doesn't mean you can spend two weeks flattening hospitals, the very few hospitals are left functioning. and it doesn't mean to say that you can threaten to invade rafa, a place where hundreds of thousands of taken refuge. it doesn't mean any of those things. there is a limit to what people can do, even in self—defence. sir alan duncan is a former conservative foreign office minister. he believes the government's legal advice can no longerjustify continuing selling arms to israel. the sheer scale of destruction is enough for us to take even a political view, even if you don't want to take a legal one, to say that arms should not be sold to israel. you have seen the wanton destruction of acres of land in gaza. it has led to the obscene position where we, the uk, along with the us, having to build a supply bridge in from the sea into gaza and drop stuff from the air to try and give food to needy people when this has been created by a so—called ally. you have to ask whether they are any longer to be an ally of decent western countries. a ceremony has been held to mark the 75th anniversary of the nato alliance. as the war in ukraine continues, the alliance has agreed to start planning for a greater role in co—ordinating military aid to the country. on the second day of this meeting in brussels, ministers marked the signing in washington on the 4th of april 19119, of the north atlantic treaty, which established the transatlantic political and military alliance. nato started with 12 members but has now extended to 32 — with the newest being finland and sweden. nato's secretary general jens stoltenberg has been speaking at the ceremony, and said the bloc not only strengthens europe's security, but also makes north america stronger. to nato, the united states has more friends and more allies than any other major power. i don't believe in america alone. just as i don't believe in europe alone. i believe in america and europe together in nato. the uk foreign secretary lord cameron has said he is working to get ukraine and nato into the best possible shape by november, before the us election. speaking to the bbc�*s ukrainecast, he also ruled out western boots on the ground in ukraine. what nato is looking at is a nato mission for ukraine, not nato mission for ukraine, not nato mission in ukraine. it is making sure that we use nato's architecture to help deliver some of the support that ukraine needs. but fundamentally, i think that we should do everything we can to help ukraine. that has been britain's position. and i think it is not escalator e to say we are going to help this independent sovereign country to fight off an aggressor and we are going to give it all the help we can in order to do that. you don't see the _ help we can in order to do that. you don't see the prospect of boots on the ground in ukraine?— don't see the prospect of boots on the ground in ukraine? now. i think that we don't _ the ground in ukraine? now. i think

to give putin - the ground in ukraine? now. i think that we don't want to give putin a l that we don't want to give putin a target like that. and nato can do lots of things to better coordinate the help we give to ukraine but fundamentally for countries like britain and although supporters of ukraine, this is a question of political will. ukraine, this is a question of politicalwill. do ukraine, this is a question of political will. do we have the patience, do we have the will, are we prepared to give the resources? in britain's case definitely the answer is yes. we're joined now by evie aspinall, director of the independent think tank the british foreign policy group. 75 years into this alliance, what are nato's biggest challenges right now? i are nato's biggest challenges right now?

maintaining support for ukraine and perhaps in uk we haven't seen as much, that has been very strong public and government support for ukraine across europe. that is starting to falter and particularly us. ithink starting to falter and particularly us. i think that leads to the other major challenge, which is that the united states is increasingly focused on china, and other global

that the united states will pull back, it will put increased pressure on european partners to invest more in our defences and that is something that nato european partners should really be prioritising. you do need to say the uk, other nations such as germany and spain which are spending significantly less on defence will need to step up to meet those concerns and fill the gap that the united states will pull back from. yes, we heard lord cameronjust a moment ago reiterated uk's commitment to ukraine. they've been talking about this trump approved plan. talking about this trump

coming up with at the moment is designed to create that longevity of support, make sure that it has got support, make sure that it has got support for the next five years and can meet the needs of ukraine. ultimately, there is still a long way to go to get that fully over the line and get that done in practice. at the moment, we do see that ukraine is really struggling. to win the war. ah.

ongoing war in ukraine the real purpose of nato is to maintain support for ukraine, make sure that we are still focusing on it and the most immediate european security challenge is met. there are still opportunities for it to involve somewhat in particular in the middle east, not least in some of the soft power conversations where we see increasingly places like china and russia are using their influence in the middle east, north africa, to get what they want in those regions. there is an opportunity i think for nato to think strategically about how it engages with some of those partners. there is talk about potentially having a new official delegate to the regions that might enable us to do some of that. but it is not a top priority. ukraine is very much the key focus but it is on the radar. and what we see at the conferences today and yesterday is that lots of side conversations are going on about the middle east. david cameron, as much as he is talking about ukraine publicly via nato, is also using the opportunity to talk to european and american counterparts about the middle east as well. . ~ counterparts about the middle east as well. ., ,, counterparts about

programme. we were talking just a few moments ago on the programme about the world central kitchen which saw its convoy hit early this week in which seven of its volunteers were killed. they're calling an independent investigation into what happened on monday night. do you agree that should happen? well, let me say that what happened on monday night was a terrible tragedy and our deepest sorrow goes out to the families and to the organisation. this is something that has been expressed from the highest levels here in israel. what happened was a mistake, it shouldn't have happened we have already launched an investigation into this by an independent professional body in order to understand what exactly happened. in orderfor us to prevent this from happening again. lanthem

can take steps to continue working very closely and coordinating convoys to make sure that humanitarian aid is getting to where it is needed. the humanitarian aid is getting to where it is needed-— it

the us defence secretary has had calls with l it is needed. the us defence - secretary has had calls with your israeli counterpart in the past few hours, in which we are told he expressed his outrage at the israeli strike on the convoy. he placed in the context of what he said were repeated coordination failures with foreign aid groups. why have those failures been happening? brute failures been happening? - coordinate together with international aid groups on a daily basis probably dozens of coordination to those have been going on throughout the war. we do those coordination is in order to make sure that the humanitarian aid which we are inspecting and then delivering into the gaza strip can be distributed to where they need to get to. again, those coordination tap in on a daily basis. we sit with international organisations multiple times a day in order to make sure that the coordination is happen in the right manner. unfortunately, there was this terrible accident on monday night, something that again as we said, is a terrible accident and we want to make sure it doesn't happen again was white but there have been multiple failures in the coordination of the past six months, have they? according to a database which tracks attacks on humanitarian workers around the globe, 203 humanitarian aid workers have been killed in gaza since october the 7th. why? | killed in gaza

is that have taken part already in the gaza strip and that we continue to coordinate stock as i said, this was a terrible accident and we do want to learn everything that we can from it to make sure that we can from it to make sure that it doesn't happen again. we have been working very closely with international organisations are many different aspects. it starts from having daily meetings in the morning and in the evening to understand what the situation on the ground is and what kind of humanitarian aid needs to be prioritised in any given day. in the specific donations in it happen for that day... {lilia day. in the specific donations in it happen for that day. . ._ day. in the specific donations in it happen for that day... happen for that day. .. 0k, let me 'ust happen for that

don't run out of time. the defence secretary also stressed the need to immediately take on crete steps to protect aid workers. we know —— to take on concrete steps. we note that the un has suspended operations for a0 hours in the light of safety concerns. what impact has the deaths of these seven foreign aid workers had in getting aid into gaza over the last few days?— the last few days? israel

200 trucks a day of aid into the gaza strip are different coordination is. again, as i said on a daily basis with international organisations in orderfor them to with international organisations in order for them to distribute it. what happened is a tragedy, i will say again. and we take it to me seriously and our sorrow goes up to the families but we will continue working with the international organisations that we working with in order to make sure that the humanitarian aid is getting to where it needs to. fine humanitarian aid is getting to where it needs to. ., ., ., ~ , it needs to. one

do you agree? i aid workers in gaza. do you agree? i think everything that has to do with the investigation and what is going on, what happened there and its consequences are something that we are looking into. as soon as we have those results were going to share them transparently and we will be able to move forward. again with a focus on making sure that something like this doesn't happen again. thank you forjoining us. around the world and across the uk this is bbc news. blood tests for dementia will be offered at more than 50 memory clinics across the uk. a five—year trial wil try to find out whether the tests can spot the early signs. the trials are being run by teams in oxford and london with thousands of volunteers and the plan is to introduce screening for dementia in over 50s. fergus walsh reports. what can our blood tell us about our brain? this small trial in oxford is looking for clues. lucy, like many of the healthy volunteers, has a personalfamily motivation for being involved. the main driver for the dementia was because my mother had dementia, and ijust have very close personal experience of how miserable that is. i mean, she wasn't... fortunately she was relatively old. she was in her 80s when it started, and she died at 97. but her last few years were really mired by the disease. what's your first language? over the next five years, around 5,000 people will take part in research assessing blood tests to see how accurately they can identify various forms of dementia, most notably alzheimer's disease. in alzheimer's disease, rogue proteins can build up in the brain over 20 years before a person shows problems with memory and understanding. the tests will search for biomarkers in the blood, which can identify the early stages of dementia. if a reliable blood test for alzheimer's is eventually approved by the nhs, it would transform diagnosis and mean that people could be screened for dementia in their 50s, long before symptoms emerge. the studies will aim to include people from diverse backgrounds and ethnicities, so a wide cross—section of society is represented. what's unique about these projects is the fact that we're going to roll them out across multiple centres in the uk to really make them accessible to people who are attending day—to—day in memory clinics. but once we have that data and we understand if these tests are effective, absolutely the next stage could be could they be used for screening in the community and primary care at an earlier age? around a third of patients with dementia never get a formal diagnosis, and only a tiny minority have access to specialist brain scans or spinal lumbar punctures, which are the gold standard tests. new treatments may soon be licensed, which can slow down the progress of alzheimer's, so accurate diagnosis is more important than ever. fergus walsh, bbc news. let's talk to jonathan schott professor of neurology at ucl and chief medical officer at alzheimer's research uk. he is leading the trial s research team. how significant a breakthrough is this? 50 how significant a breakthrough is this? ., .. ., how significant a breakthrough is this? ., ., , ., this? so accurate diagnosis of the forms of dementia _ this? so accurate diagnosis of the forms of dementia is _ this? so accurate diagnosis of the forms of dementia is key - this? so accurate diagnosis of the forms of dementia is key to - forms of dementia is key to everything that we are trying to do. when patients come with symptoms they want to know what the cause is. and if we are going to offer new treatments for specific forms of dementia then we need to have a knack to lima accurate diagnosis. —— we need to have an accurate diagnosis. alzheimer's disease is one of those forms, as we have heard, with the cumulation of specific proteins in the brain. the ability to be able to use a blood test to determine those brain proteins and to give an accurate diagnosis is really, represents a real change point. it means that people attending memory clinics across the uk could access a reliable and accurate diagnosis of alzheimer's disease, which is very useful now in guiding treatments and providing prognosis and support will become vital in me have new treatments coming on board. the two studies that are going to be funded which is funded by the people's lottery and the alzheimer's society, will take compliment reproaches. but the essence is the same. it is taken very promising blood tests which have shown high promise and high accuracy in diagnosing alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia in research settings and putting them into nhs clinics and see how they perform as white diagnosis is office extremely important. as we were hearing there, around a third of people with dementia don't even get a diagnosis. but what impact will this have on treatment given at the moment that is fairly limited, isn't it? we do have definite treatments that do work for some forms of dementia and not for others and alzheimer's disease in particular. i think it is really important not to underestimate just the value of having an accurate diagnosis. people are increasingly concerned about their memory. memory concerns in dementia is the most feared because of ageing. people are coming to their doctors, coming to specialist centres with concerns and some of those people can be reassured that they don't have dementia. and for those that do, we need and i think we are duty bound to provide them an accurate diagnosis. as i said, there are many different forms of dementia and those different forms of dementia will respond already to some different treatments that we have available but also there are bespoke ways that we can help to support individuals and guide them through theirjourney, even if there are no treatments. although we very much hope that these will be coming on is stream soon, as a body being licensed in the united states. thank ou ve licensed in the united states. thank you very much _ licensed in the united states. thank you very much for — licensed in the united states. thank you very much forjoining _

strongest quake to hit taiwan in 25 years. more than 600 people are understood to be trapped in collapsed tunnels along the coastline. about 30 buildings are reported to have collapsed altogether. our correspondent shaimaa khalil reports. rupert wingfield hayes is in is hualien — a city close to the quake's epicentre. he told us about search and rescue efforts there. the search and rescue operation has really come to an end, everyone is accounted for. nine people are dead. they are now securing the buildings are beginning to clear up and it has been remarkable to see how quickly this city is getting back to business. but outside the city there is a huge search and rescue operation going on in the mountains. we have some new figures in the last hour. the authorities are now saying a2 people missing but the number of people trapped up there in the valley is not far away from here has leapt from around 102 they're now saying over 600. 6a6 people now confirmed as trapped. normally that's because they've been able to contact people as the cell phone network has come back to life and they are calling people and finding they're trapped in hotels and in villages up in the mountains. that is a huge leap in the number of people trapped in a huge issue to try and get to them and make sure they're ok. if you're under 30 years old you have never experienced anything like this before because the last time they had a big earthquake like this in taiwan was backin earthquake like this in taiwan was back in 1999. when you see pictures, you may have seen people talking on tv saying i was really scared, i didn't know what to do, it was absolutely terrifying. i think that is a very, very normal reaction because people are not used to an earthquake of this size and even in taipei yesterday was a really big shake. and the second thing is no matter how much taiwan is in an earthquake zone and people say they are used to earthquakes, when a big one like this hits it is absolutely terrifying and traumatising for everybody who experiences it. let's just show you the live shot in taiwan. there are still searches continuing across the country with several hundred people still believed to be trapped. there are though many getting their phone signals back in the mountainous regions. you can keep up—to—date with that story of course on the bbc news website. do stay with us here on bbc news. i will be back very shortly with plenty more on all of the day's top stories. thanks for watching. hello again. the weather in the next few days does remain unsettled. we will see further spells of rain, also some sunny intervals, hill snow in scotland but this weekend is going to turn warmer than it has been and also windier. we could have the warmest day of this year so far
