Having won his first green jacket last year. Thejump from no majors to us open was smaller than what it was from the us open to the masters. It is the biggest tournament in the world. No offence to anything else but it is probably the most formative one by people who dont even play golf, that is what makes the difference, where your notoriety goes up quite a bit. You can follow the masters on the bbc sport website and app. South africas erik van rooyen, i can see, is the first to tee off. These are some of the updated tee times for round one. Jon rahm wont Get Out There for a few hours yet. Five time winner tiger woods is scheduled to be among the later starters too. Dustinjohnson, collin morikawa, and Tommy Fleetwood set to be last out.

And thats all the sport for now. More now on the middle east, and unicef says a joint un Aid Convoy Waiting to enter the north of Gaza On Tuesday was hit by gunfire. The organisation says no one was harmed but their armoured vehicle was hit by three bullets during a pre planned co ordinated mission. According to the us funded aid worker security database, more than 196 aid workers have been killed in gaza since october. And last week, seven aid workers from the world Central Kitchen were killed in an israeli air strike in gaza. Israel says its implementing Lessons Learned from this. Lets speak to tess ingram, who was part of that unicef convoy on tuesday. Shes in gaza right now. Tess ingram, thank you for your time. Tell us what happened to you. We were on a tell us what happened to you. Were on a coordinated mission to bring life saving medical and nutritional supplies to the north of gaza. We departed from ratho on Tuesday Morning and went up towards the checkpoint at wadi gaza, then we were told to hold out a designated holding area before carrying on to the checkpoint once we get the green light. We were in that holding area when gunfire broke out in the vicinity. It seemed to come from the north from the direction of the checkpoint towards civilians who turned and fled the other direction. Fortunately unicef colleagues, and colleagues at unwra were safe, we were inside the vehicle at the time of the shooting, and the bullets hit the car, two on the side and one on the car, two on the side and one on the bonnet so we were lucky that nobody was hurt, but i think this underscores how difficult and dangerous the situation continues to be in gaza for us, and for the people we are here to serve. That moment must people we are here to serve. That moment must have people we are here to serve. That moment must have been terrifying. What was going through your mind . I what was going through your mind . I was trying to figure out where it was trying to figure out where it was coming from and whether everybody was ok, and safe inside the vehicle. It was really shocking. This was a designated holding area, where we were instructed to sit. Our presence was known, cast lily mark. So it is completely unacceptable that we were in the line of fire.

I think that this indicates the kind of war that is being conducted is volatile, and we have already seen that so many civilians have been caught up in this. It is clear that something has to change. Too many civilian lives are being lost, including 200 humanitarian aid workers, more than 13,000 30,000 humanitarian aid workers, more than 13,000 30,000 palestinians, and more can be done to protect people on the ground through International Humanitarian law. fine on the ground through International Humanitarian law.

This is ourjob. We are actually going to try to reschedule this mission for a few days was time, it takes some days to coordinate these things as per protocol, but the great tragedy here is that we never got to bring the supplies to the north, and that is what we were aiming to do, and we hope that we will be able to do that, before the end of the week. Thank you, tess ingram, from unicef. We asked the idf to respond to these claims, but havent recieved a response yet, however a spokesman for the Israeli Army Says they are trying to find more ways of getting aid into gaza. Israel continues to facilitate the entry of humanitarian aid into gaza. And find new ways to increase this effort. We are constructing the northern crossing, new land crossing, from israel into Northern Gaza to enable more aid to flow directly to civilians, in the areas that have been challenging for the trucks to access. Is there, from the israelis. That response, they are, from the israelis. Waiting lists for routine Hospital Treatment in england have showed little change, according to new figures. 7. 54 million treatments were waiting to be carried out at the end of february, down from 7. 58 the month before. The fall happened largely because some Community Cases were removed from the statistics nhs england said the trend was broadly flat from the previous month. The Prime Minister says the figures show the governments plan when i became Prime Minister i said that cutting Waiting Lists was one of my five priorities, and whilst we havent made as much progress as i would have liked, todays figures show that we are Making Headway towards that goal, and over the last five months of reduction of around 200,000 in the overall Waiting Lists, which is positive and if it wasnt for industrial action, an extra 430,000 patients would have been treated, so whilst there is of course a lot more work to do, the plan is working, so, more broadly, we have seen the first year over year reduction in a e and ambulance waiting times, we have record numbers of staff working in the nhs, a long term workforce plan, and we are sitting here in the new Diagnostic Centre that has come in, demonstrating that we are doing everything we can to give patients the care they need, when they need it. But the Shadow Health secretary Wes Streeting says the nhs is still in the grip of the worst crisis in its history. The Prime Minister has failed in the promise he made to the country to cut Waiting Lists, they are higher than when he became Prime Minister, we see the nhs still in the grip of the worst crisis in its history, people waiting far too long for an ambulance, and we cannot go on like this, that is why it is crucial that at the general election this year we see a change with labour, we have a plan to cut nhs waiting list, deliver a 2 million more appointments a year, with extra people in at weekend working funded ijy people in at weekend working funded by closing Tax Loopholes and clamping down on Tax Avoidance because we prioritise doctors, not tax dodgers.

Now to vietnam, where a court has sentenced a wealthy Property Developer to death for defrauding a bank of billions of dollars in one of the biggest Corruption Cases ever. 67 year old Tru Ong Mee Lan was found guilty of embezzlement, bribing State Officials and violating bank lending regulations, after she used her hidden ownership of the Saigon Commercial Bank to channel 41; billion of loans to her own companies. Our South East Asia correspondent, jonathan head, has more. It isa it is a big chunk of the economy she managed to siphon off. The communist authorities released a lot of details about the case against her, about how she carried out the fraud, and encouraged the vietnamese media to control it. They have made an example of her. She is getting tremendous coverage over there. She has now been given the death penalty, the most severe penalty. As an example and possibly a warning to others involved in fraud. It is the latest in a chapter of an Anti CorruptionCampaign Launched by the veteran Communist Party chief eight years ago. I dont think anyone can remember a trial like it, and there were 85 other defendants with her. With that the communist authorities are hoping that they can channel public anger about corruption in general at official levels, which is very high in vietnam, to make an example of her, and show that they are doing something about it, and that is why the case is such a high profile case. She was the early one of the 86 defendants denied the charges to the very end. She can now appeal against the Death Sentence and may get leniency if she follows the court injunction, the court has asked to find and give back a lot of the money that is missing, around 27 billion is unaccounted for.

Now, lt� s a big day in the Games Industry the Bafta Gaming Awards take place tonight in london. Gaming is big business here in the uk sales topped more than £4] billion last year more than double that of the music industry. This marks the 20th year of the gaming baftas, and 2023 was widely considered to be one of the best years ever in the industry. Our Technology Reporter mark cieslak has been looking at for many, its been a vintage yearfor games. Leading the bafta field, nominated in ten categories, is baldur� s gate 3. Its inspired by table top role playing game dungeons and dragons, reimagined for console and pc. This is the game to beat. Lets make this interesting. Its closely followed in the nominations by Fan Favourite spider man 2. This is crazy. Also hotly tipped is nintendos incredibly innovative zelda tears of the kingdom. You are our final hope. The baftas are famous for confounding expectations, with indie games and smaller titles often taking home some of the big awards. So, Quirky Deep Sea Exploration sushi Restaurant Management sim, dave the diver, might snatch some silverware away from the blockbusters. But even an Industry Worth over £4] billion a year in the uk isnt immune from financial pressures which are being felt all over the world. Big Companies Like playstation, microsoft and Electronic Arts have all shed jobs in recent months. We can fight this together. Comedian phil wang will be hosting the event task which always falls to somebody with proper gaming credentials. Growing up in malaysia, in borneo which is beautiful, but not so much going on video games were a real escape. Im really looking forward to celebrating the industry, the Games Industry, the creativity that goes into it, and i feel like it finally proves to my parent that games are art, just like i said, all those years when they were trying everyone, from developers to the actors whose performances appear in games, are hoping to take home a coveted golden mask. Samantha beart is nominated for their performance as Barbarian Karlach in baldur� s gate 3. Thats my reward for everything i suffered. For anyone that still thinks that this is pac man and for kids in their parents basements and all the stereotypes, this industry makes more money than film, tv and music combined, and yet its still seen as quite an underground thing and, yeah, having the academy itself, which is such a global brand represent that, its really something, its really special. The games baftas, now in its 20th year, offers the industry a much needed chance to celebrate its many creative successes. Marc cieslak, bbc news.

Just to let you know, our Breaking News this hour, the family of oj simpson, who was enrolled in a trial over the murder of his wife nicole brown simpson, has died. Hello, there. The weather weve got over the next couple of days is really quite unusual for april. If we take a look at this anomaly chart, the redder the colours, the more unusual the heat is, and as you can see, were towards the top end of this scale. How warm is it going to get . Well, some places could see temperatures around 21 degrees celsius. For example, around greater london. Temperatures for quite a few areas will be around six or seven degrees celsius above average for the time of year. And the reason weve got this mild flow of air is down to the jet stream pattern, which is bringing mild and quite humid air up from near the azores. Now, it might be mild, but its not necessarily sunny. The best of the Sunshine Today has been across the midlands, northwards across Northern England into scotland. However, it stays pretty cloudy for southern and western wales, Southern Parts of england with occasional spots of drizzle around, particularly towards coastal areas. And for Northern Ireland, some thicker cloud is on the way. Outbreaks of rain here to end the day. The rain probably turning quite heavy. But whether youve got cloud or the sunshine doesnt really make that much of a difference for the temperatures. Its very mild nationwide. Now, overnight tonight, that rain in Northern Ireland moves northwards to reach the far north of england and across parts of scotland for a time as well. Temperatures stay mild, 11, 12 degrees celsius. There will likely be some mist and fog patches around towards the end of the night. And so for some, its going to be quite a grey start to the day on friday, perhaps a bit more rain for a time in Northern Ireland moving back towards scotland, this time across most southern regions of england and wales, youve probably got a better chance of the clouds thinning and breaking to give us some sunshine. And those temperatures still well above average for the time of year. 18 in aberdeen, were up to 20 or 21 across parts of eastern england. Saturday is something of a transition day. Again, therell be some mist and fog patches around. We keep the mild air across southern and eastern parts of england, but to the north west of the uk were getting some heavier outbreaks of rain moving in and the weather will be turning significantly cooler along with that rain for Northern Ireland and for scotland as well. And thats just the first day of the change because as we head through sunday and into next week, weve got a ridge of High Pressure to the west of the uk thats going to send down a northwesterly flow of air across the country. That will reduce temperatures probably even a bit below average in places and will bring us a mixture of sunshine and heavy showers. Live from london, this is bbc news.
