This week, we re in spain. . . . . For decades, a summer favourite of families and package holiday makers looking for some guaranteed sunshine. This month alone, around 10 million of us will have paid the country a visit. So as peak season there reaches its height, we wanted to revisit some of our adventures on the spanish mainland, starting in the southern region of andalucia, home to some eye catching names seville, cordoba, granada and the costa del sol. But amid all the recumbent sun worshippers spread out on the beaches, we found something secret hidden beneath the sands. I m meeting eddi pitcher, a writer and travel journalist who specialises in uncovering hidden places. Eddi, where are you taking me today? so we are taking the wild way to bolonia beach, and we can see that this is the way because we ve got. . . Knotted beach grass here. There are no signs. So it s. . . I said it was a wild way. I m definitely glad that eddi s here to show me the way on this one. Wow, look at t
With him, two other men who tried to escape. Killed in an air strike as they ran. Israel says all were involved in shooting and bombing attacks. The eastern areas of janine and its refugee camp have both been sealed off for the past three days and there are fresh reports of casualties including an 82 year old man who paramedics said was shot nine times. This morning the army pulled out of the camp. The destruction of their comment enough to remind residents of the war. They say the army lead wires from her home to blow up two of the houses opposite. Families she has known for decades. Translation: i have a 10yearold triplets and they trapped us in the room. Then they started the explosions. Five explosions. Imagine the walls shaking and your children clinging to you. It feels like we are in gaza. We met this lady. Translation: they told us we have channels and we smuggle people. The water drill dug into the floor and all he found was a sewage drain. Later she shows us the broken floor.
With neighbours in an effort to find out more about what happened. I m here to let the family and the wider community know that we will work with you and support you as we seek to find who is responsible for the death of this young boy. Last year, the west midlands had the highest rate of knife offences in england and wales with many victims in their teens. Police launched something called project guardian to try to combat the problem five years ago, but since then, the numbers have kept going up. Young people are in fear. Because they hear stories like this and think that they need to equip themselves with a knife. So you know, a lot of young people i mentor tell me i don t want to die. Or if in a situation that i ve got a knife, what do i do? outside the house, people come to lay flowers in tears. But there s a fear, too. There s a real danger around this area. It s not a nice area to live in any more. But for a 13 year old, it s quite sad. I ve got a 13 year old daughter, and i wo
They have got a lot of young children to vaccinate. 6a0,000. And with the polio vaccination it comes in two rounds, so more thani million it comes in two rounds, so more than 1 million vaccinations are already in gaza, the first round of vaccinations will start tomorrow as part of this campaign, and then in three weeks those children will have to have another vaccination. So, a lot of the logistics around this have actually been about keeping the vaccination is cool because obviously it is very hot in gaza at the moment and they have got to be refrigerated, and for the most part it is local doctors who would be administering it, but with so many people to be vaccinated it is obviously going to be challenging. Let s turn our attention to israel s military operation in the west bank, what is the latest on that? well, this intensified israeli military operation has now been going on for several days, and it has continued today, as you say specifically in jenin. My today, as you say speci
To be vaccinated. And i have every hope that it will be a success. With the pauses in the fighting that have been agreed. Do they go? will they be going on for as long as is necessary for this to be implemented, or are the aid workers out there under a time pressure to roll out the vaccinations? my understanding is that these are daytime pauses for three days with an option for a fourth day. But again, i sincerely hope that if the work isn t completed, there will be more opportunities to get every child vaccinated, because that s what will be needed. With the vaccination programme. As it stands then, with the caveats and limitations, how likely do you think it is to tackle this resurgence in polio in the area? i m sure it will be difficult for the logistic reasons that are pretty obvious. But again, if a success is achieved and a second round will be needed in september, then hopefully this transmission of polio virus will be stopped and it s really important that it is stopped. How cr
