Hostages are released. Israeli forces went into rafah on monday night in defiance of international pressure, seizing the Border Crossing with egypt. The un secretary general, antonio guterres, has warned that a full scale assault on rafah would cause a humanitarian nightmare. Qatar has called for International Intervention to prevent the city from being invaded. Our middle east correspondent, yolande knell, is injerusalem. We know that for weeks now the us has been warning israel against a full scale offensive of rafah. This really because of the high numbers of displaced people who are living in that city, crammed up next to the border with egypt. And the us had been talking to israel about more limited options for going in there to tackle the hamas presence. Now, this does look to be a really significant development, the idea that a us shipment has been halted to israel. Its the first time weve heard of such a thing in seven months of war. And it really does reflect, i think, the lev
Hundreds of thousands of palestinians living in the sand against the egyptian border. Or next to the sea. I dont know where to stay, ahmed says.

And there are very, very few sites where we have the ability to give medical support. For the families of israeli hostages, these are also moments of acute anxiety. John and rachel

Stormy daniels was paid 130,000 by mr trump to stop her going public with claims of a sexual encounter shortly before the 2016 president ial election. Just outside the court room, he insisted he shouldnt be on trial at all. And the trial is a very unfair trial. Its a very, very unfair trial. The good news is they have nothing. Thank you. The court was shown this photograph of mr trump with Stormy Daniels, as she described first meeting him at a Golf Tournament in 2006, the day she says they later had sex. It was at this golf course, she says, that donald trump sent his bodyguard to invite her to dinner. When she got to his hotel suite, she laughed at him for wearing black silk pyjamas while he dangled the possibility of her appearing on his tv show, the apprentice. When she asked about his wife, melania, he told her they slept in separate
