Nhs checks in school. Welcome to the programme. The mosque was next to hospital, the humanitarian situation is worsening, at least four hospitals closed in Southern Lebanon because of israeli Air Strikes. Officials say they have had to turn away emergency patients. The World Health Organization says at least 37 Health Care facilities have now closed since israel began its Air Bombardment of lebanon two weeks ago. In the northern part of tripoli and israeli strike on an Apartment Building is reported to have killed a Hamas Commander and three members of his family. Israel has yet to comment on strikes in Northern Israel this morning. Lebanons capital, pummelled by explosions yet again. This was the scene overnight, one week on since the leader of hezbollah was killed, this conflict is escalating. And the suffering of the lebanese people is intensifying. The United Nations says that most of the 900 shelters that have appeared across the country are now full. Hundreds of men, women and ch
Earlier, the idf had warned that it was going to target three particular buildings in this area, dahieh, known as a Hezbollah Stronghold. They said they were going to target them because of the hezbollah facilities and interests located there. The idf had posted saying these buildings would be targeted in the near future and told people that were living within 500 metres of them to move urgently. Just to give you a sense of the geography of where this is, i have been talking about how this is in a southern suburb of beirut but it is also in an area that is very close to the International Airport. These Evacuation Orders came before the strikes. Hezbollah has a strong presence in the Southern Suburbs. I think we can show you some of the pictures are one of the big explosions that has happened in the last half an hour. So we can see these pictures that are live and you can see the illumination. I want to show you some of these recorded pictures. There you can see that massive explosion t
Opponents have voiced concerns that vulnerable people could be coerced into ending their lives. Our political correspondent, helen catt, reports. The noes to the left, 330. The last time mps voted on assisted dying was nearly ten years aGo they opposed changing the law. But a new set of mps will get a new vote in the coming months, after labours Kim Leadbeater came top in a ballot that gives backbench mps time in the commons to propose laws, and said she would put it forward. I also think there is a real sense within parliament that now is the time for this debate. As i say, its nearly ten years since there was last a debate in the chamber. So i think most people. You know, people are nervous, people know how serious this subject is, and i understand that i feel nervous about it but i also think its important enough that we show parliament at its best, actually, which is debating something that we know matters to a huge amount of people. The Broadcaster Dame Esther rantzen has Lung Can
There were two reasons, really. One, because it was a lengthy interview, and i do think a large number of the short interviews i see merely produce sound bite answers they don t really inform the public. And secondly though i probably shouldn t say this it s 65 years since ijoined the conservative party. I was, am, and always will be a conservative. But for in recent months a little longer than a few months there s not been a great deal i could say that i would wish to say in favour of what the previous government were doing. With that being so, i thought it betterjust stay off the air. Now, of course, the election s behind us, the party s looking again to the future and i can i can return to speaking out, hopefully in favour. Well, there s a lot to get into. Let s start with where we are as a country the country that you led for seven years. You used to say vocally, publicly that you dreamt of a nation at ease with itself. Has your dream come true? emphatically not
And this attack came with no warning. We went to inspect the damage. A residential building near the lebanese parliament. Beirut appears increasingly under threat. This is where an emergency response group linked to hezbollah operated, now gone. There were just emergency service workers. This is the truth. We only saw them helping people out, says mustafa, who lives on the tenth floor of the building hit. The damage in this building gives you a sense of the power of this attack, and they ve been cleaning up the rubble here, but we can still see some surgical masks and gloves and bandages as well. And you can probably hear the sound of drones flying overhead. This is a densely populated district here in central beirut. Hasan, who s a teacher, has lived in this neighbourhood for 2h years. There was no hezbollah presence here, military or civilian, he tells me. Hezbollah wasn t present here. These are some of the victims of the attack. They include one rescue officer and two paramedics. T
