unfortunately, we're currently in a situation where i have to say that, i didn't even imagine that i would ever say something like that, that i have something... another fighter jet. that's the second one in the last few minutes. i didn't even think that i will say something like that ever, that there is something in the world which is more important for me than my family. but unfortunately the reality has changed, and here we are. i need to get to israel as soon as possible. lev and his girlfriend, on holiday in portugal, told us they're scrambling to get back home. it was really hard mentally to hear all the horror stories from home. and being away from ourfamilies, for my friends, needs... lev needs to go back to the army. i want to help in any way. as much as we can. for paul charney in tel aviv, just off a plane from heathrow, there's exasperation. recorded message. so frustrating. born in israel, but a londoner for more than 20 years, he's holding for the local army recruiting office. oh, i make it through. hi. shalom. untranslated speech. but it's bad news. they tell him he may be too old to serve, aged 51. what did your wife say?

"i want to build a better britain, but don't do it here" — that's what's held us back. now obviously we need to work with local communities, we need to ensure that planning goes up a level so it's not so localised. people talk about nimbys, not in my back yard. those who oppose development. are you a yimby — yes in my back yard? iam, yes. i think that it's very important that we build the homes that we need for the future. keir starmer has tried to junk plenty of labour's recent history, but the routine of singing the party's anthem to close this conference continues. sir keir�*s ongoing task — ending labour's routine of losing far more elections than they win. chris mason, bbc news in liverpool. flights have resumed at luton airport, after a huge fire in one of the airport's car parks last night. part of the multistorey building collapsed and a major incident was declared. hundreds of passengers were stranded at the airport overnight, as our east of england correspondent jo black now reports. shortly before 9pm and a car in one of the airport's multi—stories is on fire. moments later the flames intensify, racing through the car park. a major incident was declared, with around 100 firefighters displayed. with around 100 firefighters displayed-— with around 100 firefighters disla ed. . , .,, with around 100 firefighters disla ed. . , ., displayed. certainly there was an ex - losion displayed. certainly there was an exolosion and — displayed. certainly there was an explosion and a _ displayed. certainly there was an explosion and a massive - displayed. certainly there was an explosion and a massive gal- displayed. certainly there was an explosion and a massive gal to i displayed. certainly there was an - explosion and a massive gal to flame shot across the car park like a flame thrower. provides the structure partially collapsed and an airport worker and four firefighters treated for smoke inhalation. tens of thousands— treated for smoke inhalation. tens of thousands of _ treated for smoke inhalation. tens of thousands of passengers had their journeys disrupted, local hotels filled up quickly and many slept in the terminal building. the sutherland family rearrange their travel plans, hoping to fly from another airport. taste travel plans, hoping to fly from another airport.— travel plans, hoping to fly from another airport. travel plans, hoping to fly from another airort. ~ , ., another airport. we were supposed to be fl in: another airport. we were supposed to be flying this — another airport. we were supposed to be flying this afternoon _ another airport. we were supposed to be flying this afternoon to _ another airport. we were supposed to be flying this afternoon to rhodes - be flying this afternoon to rhodes but were not sure if the flight was going to go, so we have booked a flight from gatwick to travel there, just to guarantee the flight. the fire service _ just to guarantee the flight. the fire service say _ just to guarantee the flight. the fire service say they believe the fire was accidental but its close proximity to the terminal building, the taxiway on the drop—off points meant it was extremely disruptive. up meant it was extremely disruptive. up to 1500 cars were parked here last night and the car is a mangled mess today. colin foster was diverted to bristol and had to pay for a taxi home. when he tried to collect his car today he was not able to. ~ able to. we were caught -- we called, able to. we were caught -- we called. we _ able to. we were caught -- we called, we were _ able to. we were caught -- we called, we were held _ able to. we were caught -- we called, we were held for - able to. we were caught -- we called, we were held for over. able to. we were caught -- we i called, we were held for over two hours, even at the bottom of the road they are telling you to collect your car, there is obviously a huge amount of miscommunication. the airort amount of miscommunication. the airport reopened this afternoon and is doing its best to get back to normal. scientists from around the world have been waiting for this moment for years — what did nasa's space capsule manage to bring back to earth last month after its long mission to collect space dust from an asteroid in 2020?
