And coming up on bbc news five new sports are approved for the 2028 olympics in los angeles. Cricket, squash, lacrosse, Flag Football and baseball or softball are all in. Good afternoon and welcome to the bbc� s news at one. Were live in Southern Israel where theres little sign of any easing of the humanitarian crisis across the border in gaza, and little let up in israels military preparations. Israel has denied reports that a ceasefire in Southern Gaza was agreed to allow foreign nationals to leave and humanitarian aid to enter. So far that crossing remains shut. Israel has continued air strikes on gaza, it says in retaliation against hamas proscribed by many western states, including the uk, as a terrorist organisation. More than 1,400 people were killed in israel by hamas, and subsequently nearly 2,800 people have died in gaza. The un says it is involved in intensive diplomacy to get aid in. Diplomacy intensifies too. Ahead of an expected Ground Attack by israel us President Joe Biden has warned israel it would be a mistake to occupy the gaza strip. Our first report today is from our correspondent, nick beake. In gaza, families who have been forced from their homes are heading south to the border with egypt. But this, the rafah crossing, has remained closed to them. Trapping palestinians as well as foreign nationals. They say they have lost everything in israels response to hamas� s killing of civilians just over a week ago.

The government here says the scale of the atrocities justifies its response. Most israelis seem to support what their military is doing in gaza, that hamas crossed a line. And hamas continues to fire rockets into israeli towns and cities, and that only hardens public opinion. People are also worried and angry that 199 hostages are still being held in gaza. There is no sign of the imminent release of those hostages, nor any breakthrough that would allow those in gaza to escape from this misery. Nick beake, bbc news, tel aviv. Everyday there is a new warning from the United Nations. Now they are saying hospitals in gaza, which are still able to operate, will run of fuel within a day. Our Correspondentjon Donnison Reports on the situation, a situation that has been described by the World Health Organization as a place with a death sentence. Jon donnison looks at how people are coping. Amid the destruction in Southern Gaza, the homeless and the hungry in their hundreds of thousands are trying to survive. And the United Nations is now warning of an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe. We have nothing that we need to live, says this man, who fled south. We are living in a dump and if we move we will die. Amid the detritus are not enough toilets, there are fears about the spread of disease. There is food, but not enough. All this will feed less than 2000 people, says amir, just a fraction of those in need. There are long queues to get bread, but it is being rationed. We have been waiting here since six in the morning, he tells us, just to get food to feed the kids. We will run out of flour, the kids. We will run out of flour, the baker says, in two days maximum. Clean water is also in short supply. Fuel supplies needed to operate filters are dwindling. This is all the clean water i can get, he says. We left our homes in the north because we thought there would be aid, but where is it, he goes on. Give us electricity, give us water. And all the while, the hospitals in the south, like in the rest of gaza, are overwhelmed with casualties from the old to the very young.

Bring us up to date with the latest on the intensive negotiations to reopen the gaza crossing. Any sign of any movement . There isnt at the moment. Listen to the language the United Nations is using, talking about fears of an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe. One of the towns we heard from in that report, normally there is about 400,000 People Living there. There are now more than 1 Million People needing to be fed and sheltered. Our correspondence there, rushdi abualouf, who provided a lot of those pictures, is saying for the first time there are fears people could die of hunger and thirst. Its hot not been happening in the past but he says in the past he has covered in many conflicts, decades of conflict in gaza, he says that is something that would be unimaginable. And we are beginning to hearfrom people in the south unimaginable. And we are beginning to hear from people in the south who fled from their homes in the north, who are saying, look, we are thinking of going back north, such is the dire situation in terms of food, water and fuel in the south. The view there is that if people are going to die, they would rather die in their own homes than in the south of gaza.

Jon donnison, thank you for bringing us up to date. There are also deepening concerns that this intense conflict between israel and gaza could spread to neighbouring states, most of all to lebanon where tensions have been growing. We can go to that front and join our correspondence anna foster. Bring us up to date on what is happening. I bring us uptodate on what is happening bring us uptodate on what is happening.

I think what we saw in l the early hours of this morning is a real indication of the tension and concern here on israels northern border with lebanon because People Living in 28 different towns and villages right along this border were given the order to evacuate, thats basically everyone living within two kilometres of the border, places that can see the border wall from their streets and homes, they have been told to leave. I think a lot of that is down to the real increase in firing we saw throughout the day yesterday, repeated attacks by hezbollah, that powerful group in lebanon, an ally of hamas. They are under pressure from iran to step in and back hamas. We saw yesterday repeated anti tank fire coming across the border into israel and each time that happened israel responding powerfully back in the other direction targeting hezbollah infrastructure and targeting their fighters and targeting the various observation points they have there as well. A lot of people who live in these communities had heard that going on and they had already chosen to leave. They have packed up their things and families and they have gone, they didnt wait for the official order because they did not feel safe, but i think thats a real sign of how much focus and attention is right now on the northern border. Anna foster, take care, you and your team, but thank you forjoining us. Ten days into this war and diplomacy is intensifying, as we have heard in this programme. On one front to get desperately needed aid into gaza and to get at least the foreign nationals out. So far no sign that the people of gaza can leave the gaza strip. Secondly true try to ensure this conflict doesnt spread. In the last few hours the us Secretary Of StateAntony Blinken has returned to israel after doing a tour of the region where he met every arab leader who could do something to try to find a way out of this crisis. Our Diplomatic CorrespondentJames Landale reports. It is called Shuttle Diplomacy for a reason. Antony blinken has dashed from capital to capital across the middle east, meeting six arab leaders in four days. Listening and talking, cajoling and warning. And today he returned to israel to report back on discussions about protecting civilians and securing hostages, and, above all, about how best to avoid this conflict escalating. What ive heard from virtually every partner was a determination, a shared view that we have to do Everything Possible to make sure this doesnt spread to other places. A shared view to safeguard innocent lives, a shared view to get assistance to palestinians in gaza. Israeli troops have already been deployed to their northern border with lebanon amid fears that hezbollah, the iranian backed militants there, could use this opportunity to attack israel. Much depends on this man sitting on the left, irans foreign minister, here meeting hamas leaders in qatar in recent days, rallying support for a group that his Government Backs but many in the west say are terrorists. The United States has already sent one Aircraft Carrier group to the region to deter iran and hezbollah, another carrier is on the way, so worried is the us about escalation. European diplomats are also engaged. Frances foreign minister, here on the left, was in egypt today, pushing to get aid into gaza and foreign nationals out. And russias president , vladimir putin, had a phone call with president assad of syria to discuss, his office said, the humanitarian situation. This morning the Prime Minister visited a Jewish School in london in a show of support after recent anti semitic incidents. He said israel had every right to defend itself against what he called hamass barbarity, but. Ive raised with the israeli Prime Minister the need to minimise the impact on civilians best we can, ive raised the humanitarian situation. We will continue to do that with other allies around the region as well. But, again, israel has given people advance notice of whats happening, given them the opportunity to leave, and its hamas who is now telling people to stay behind. He said no one wanted what he called regional escalation, but in wars, wanting something is rarely the same as getting something. James landale, bbc news. In wars like this, every hour matters. An hour to save another life in gaza, and to ease the suffering of nearly 2 million palestinians now living under israeli air strikes. And too, another hour to protect the lives of Israeli Citizens particularly here in Southern Israel. Every hour is another step towards Israel Cosmic expected assault by land, sea and air. We will keep an eye on developments but now its back to ben in the studio. Studio lyse doucet, thank you for those developments. A british man who was once linked to the Islamic State death squad nicknamed the beatles has pleaded guilty to terrorism charges. 39 year old aine davis has already served a Prison Sentence in turkey for being a member of the Islamic State group and was arrested on his arrival back in the uk last august. Live now to our home affairs correspondent, daniel sandford, whos at the old bailey for us now. Tell us more about who he is and what hes admitted. Aine davis is from west london. He was a drug dealer and has a conviction for carrying a weapon, so he was essentially a professional criminal. But he also knew two of the men who went to be members of that kidnap and mega gang that became labelled the beatles by some of those who they held prisoner. That was Mohammed Emwazi who was sometimes known Asjihadi John and alexanda kotey. And he himself travelled out to syria in 2019 and was suspected for quite a long time by british and Us Intelligence he might have been a member of that kidnap and murder gang, himself a member of the beatles. He was arrested in turkey in November 2015 and was found guilty of being a member of the Islamic State group and had been imprisoned ever since then until last summer when his Prison Sentence was coming to an end. There was a discussion about whether should be put on trial in america or here but the then Home Secretary priti patel was trying to persuade The Americans to prosecute him because they had prosecuted two members of the beatle gang. But The Americans decided not to prosecute and he was charged here with possession of firearms in syria, that related to a picture he had sent his wife of him holding a gun in syria. He has tried to have that child put off, saying he had already stood trial in turkey on similar charges, he failed on that. And today, he pleaded guilty to terrorism and to fundraising to terrorism and to fundraising to t
