huge explosion in gaza city as there is attacks continue 500 overnight and mow through the course of today as israel says it is focusing on targeting hamas militants. as we watch these pictures let me bring you a significant line from the european union and just as it is happening announcing the suspending the aid to palestinians. let me read what the eu commissionerfor palestinians. let me read what the eu commissioner for neighbourhood and enlargement has been tweeting. it is the scale of terror and brutality against israel and its people is a turning point. there can be no business as you kneel. as the biggest is the palestinians, the european commission is putting its full development portfolio under the review —— no business as usual. that is worth a total of 691 million euros. all payments are immediately suspended all projects have been put under review and only budget proposals including those for 2023 postponed until further notice so thatis postponed until further notice so that is a really definitive statement from the european union saying the foundations for peace, tolerance and coexistence must now be addressed. incitement to hatred, violence and glorification of terror have poisoned the minds of too many. we need action and we need it now. so a very forthright statement from the european commissioner and interesting we were talking there to jan edlund and his norwegian refugee council does so much work on the ground and he was saying this would be a backward move when i was talking to him about the potential of the eu perhaps suspending its name and made the point that no aid money goes to hamas so this is money that goes to ordinary palestinians and he thought that was a backwards step but it is a step that the eu has concerned in the last few moments. plenty happening on the ground and will bring you the latest both from gaza city and israel and bring you the from the correspondence that will be live in washington on the programme injust a moment. we can pose for a moment or two and head to the bbc sport centre to them the spot of the day. will perry is there for us. that afternoon. the spring up to date with events of the cricket world

to the situation in israel where the israeli army says its forces have killed several gunmen that crossed into israeli territory from lebanon. army says its troops were backed by helicopter gunships. not yet any information from the government. the hezbollah said the lebanese group had not mounted any operation into israel. on sunday hezbollah filed missiles and artillery cells into lebanon in solidarity they said with hamas. no—one was reportedly hurt and israel responded by filing into the area. let's get more on the situation in the situation close to the border now and we've been seeing some of the shelling going on in the last couple of hours. our correspondent there for us and just explain first of all a little more about your exact location. we are close to where they attack you mentioned yesterday happened. occupied areas very close to here, israeli positions which were attacked by hezbollah are. she said, hezbollah has not claimed the attacks of today. these happen further west along the border. we have been here all day but throughout the past few hours we had been hearing the distant sound of shelling by the israelis into lebanon following that reported incursion. we are not yet sure who exactly went in and clashed with the israeli army on the other side or whether it was on the other side. all the news like that is coming from the israeli sources, israeli media and here as you said no claim by hezbollah as you said of having done anything today. it is by hezbollah as you said of having done anything today.— by hezbollah as you said of having done anything today. it is of course one of the areas _ done anything today. it is of course one of the areas people _ done anything today. it is of course one of the areas people are - done anything today. it is of course i one of the areas people are watching very closely with joe biden one of the areas people are watching very closely withjoe biden over the weekend morning others in the region not to get involved. there is a real fear of this crisis broadening even further and wider? yes, the americans are very concerned about that and so are the israelis. as blair has signalled very clearly where it stands on this issue. it says it will not leave hamas alone. what precisely that means it is starting to... certain signals israel has not ruled out entering this conflict in a much bigger way thanit this conflict in a much bigger way than it did yesterday when it shields the israeli occupied farmed. —— lebanon has not ruled out entering this conflict. lots of speculation and analysis about that. most say they are about to be dealt a major blow if that happens and thatis a major blow if that happens and that is probably when the hezbollah promise not to leave them and will be tested. at the moment, this has not yet happened. then back —— hamas is not yet in a weak position so all eyes are on the gaza strip to see how things develop militarily in gaza but at the same time the tension is very, very high along the border here. tension is very, very high along the border here-— border here. thanks very much for the latest where _ border here. thanks very much for the latest where you _

are planned to give israel. "tte: response by the us has been are planned to give israel. t'te: response by the us has been very swift in credit the defence secretary is ironclad. they have sent huge firepower over to the mediterranean to help israel. they sent an aircraft carrier with warplanes, with destroyers, with cruisers and all sorts of extra military assistance in the form of ammunition and messages to begin with and they are planning to continue to send military assistance and aid and we hearing in the us firstfear and aid and we hearing in the us first fear this could spill out into the region that others could get involved in the war, specifically hezbollah militants and the national security council i will quote what they said, any decision by hezbollah or other actors to drag lebanon into this conflict will have terrible consequences for the lebanese people, who deserve better. the real one in there from the us. the other fear is hostages. a lot of reports that there are american hostages there is not with the concerns there are nine us citizens and haven't had any more details other than that and also the concerns of americans unaccounted for and the national security council are unaccounted for us citizens but we don't know any details and don't know the numbers. of details and don't know the numbers. of course, central to the broader american strategy in the region is to normalise relations between israel and saudi arabia. what efforts are the us making to try and get a stronger response from riyadh? that normalisation is the heart of president biden�*s middle east policy and has been a lot of speculation as we have been hearing in our coverage over whether that attempt to normalise saudi and israeli relations are somehow incentivised hamas to do what they did over the weekend and we don't know for sure. there is still a push on going on in orderfor that to happen there is still a push on going on in order for that to happen saudi arabia did release a statement as we know which fell short of condemning hamas out right and instead appeared to blame israel for what happened. the us will still be pushing for the normalisation of these relations but we just don't know. how far they will get back time with it. there will get back time with it. there will still be a key thing for president biden and his middle east policy. another thing to add as well is a bit of an and there has been lots of speculation about iran somehow being involved in what happened over the weekend. the us has said that broadly speaking they do believe iran is complicit. they cite the fact iran has been backing hamas and thing that has been trained and military operations but there is no direct evidence to show —— to show that iran have any operation over the weekend —— there is no direct evidence to show that iran had any involvement over the weekend. , ., , ., , weekend. very large in explosions in gaza city at — weekend. very large in explosions in gaza city at those _ weekend. very large in explosions in gaza city at those huge _ weekend. very large in explosions in gaza city at those huge plumes -

especially mixed city. we have one | out of time but... explosions that sounds like a dreadful experience and as you close, another huge explosion in gaza city. back in a moment. hello. it was a real weekend of contrast. some exceptionally wet weather across scotland, in fact the wettest spot having nearly 180 millimetres of rain. so, there are still some flood warnings in force — that means danger to life. details on the website, including numerous other flood warnings. and there are more weather warnings out for tomorrow, but for today the weather front is still with us, but it's a weak affair, so a respite from the rain for many parts of scotland, just dribs and drabs on this weather front remaining. it will tend to pep up as it pushes north later. but for most other parts it is largely dry, bright and sunny spells, quite warm, temperatures again knocking on the door of what we saw on sunday for northern ireland, england and wales. but overnight temperatures not falling back much, but the misty low cloud around the coasts will creep inland, one band of rain pushes into the northern isles and we will see another following suit. this is the warning in time for tomorrow, really, across western scotland. but given all the cloud again tonight, it will be a mild one for all. a ridge of high pressure close to the south means another fine and dry day for most of england and wales. cloudier skies coming into northern ireland eventually, but again most of the rainfall — 15—20 millimetres quite widely, but as much as a0 or 50 millimetres could fall over hills and again that is a concern as the ground is saturated, the rivers are full and cannot take any more at the moment, so we need to be aware there could be further flooding as we go through into tuesday as well, but further south it is a very different story and some places haven't had any rain at all so far this october. as we go through tuesday night and into wednesday, it is likely some areas further south will see some rain — heavy rain, potentially — pushing through wales into the midlands and then easing further southwards, which means drier weather on wednesday for scotland, drier and clearer with sunshine across northern ireland and northern england. a fresher feel here, though, still quite warm, despite the increased cloud and some rain further south. that weather front hangs around in the south through thursday, potentially peps up through friday, joining forces with low pressure to the south, low pressure to the north as well, so overall an unsettled picture towards the end of the week as well, and looking to get fresher, even in the south, this weekend. live from london, this is bbc news. israel orders a complete siege of the hamas —controlled gaza strip, cutting off power and food. the european commission also suspends all palestinian aid. israel described saturday's assault as its 9/11. at least 700 israelis dead, including 260 at a music festival. rocket attacks from gaza continue with explosions heard injerusalem, the uk and the us confirm they have citizens dead or missing. explosions gazais explosions gaza is under frequent bombardment. this is the densely populated bowling. the area's health ministry says 560 people in the territory are dead. this is the scene live in gaza. israel's prime minister says his country's response will change the middle east. hello and welcome to verified live. israel's defence minister says he's ordered a "full siege" of the gaza strip. he's ordered a "full after israel's biggest loss of life in generations, yoav gallant said there would be "no power, no food, no fuel" and that everything would be closed down. in the last 15 minutes, the european commission has also announced an immediate suspension of all age to palestinians. meanwhile... israel has also intensified their attacks on hamas. explosions these are some of the recent pictures.
