October seven attacks orchestrated by hamas were released. An 85 year old and a 79 year old were handed over at the Rafah Crossing. Hamas, described as a Terrorist Group by the uk in many governments, say they released their women on humanitarian grounds. They were amongst ginger and 20 hostages still inside gaza and they were handed over to representatives of the red cross around ten p m local time on monday night.

Joining me now is can this be more than symbolic visit . More than symbolic visit . Macron doesnt more than symbolic visit . Macron doesnt have more than symbolic visit . Macron doesnt have the more than symbolic visit . Macron doesnt have the same more than symbolic visit . Macron doesnt have the same impact more than symbolic visit . Macron doesnt have the same impact the more than symbolic visit . Macron doesnt have the same impact the job iden has but he is really trying to show solidarity. France has the Largestjewish Community in europe, as well as one of the largest muslim communities in europe, so he is here to show solidarity, support. The expressed earlier he is sharing their pain so really that first, then to work on the back channels to release hostages, to show support to the families of the victims, french victims. There were 30 french citizens had died in the attacks on the 7th Of October and seven people that are missing and one of them, we know for sure, is a hostage but six of them otherwise we dont know exactly where they are. And of them otherwise we dont know exactly where they are. Exactly where they are. And of course french exactly where they are. And of course french dual exactly where they are. And of course french dual nationals i exactly where they are. And of course french dual nationals amongst a palestinian civilian population in the gaza strip and jewish and Muslim Community is very prominent in france, so france does feel this conflict Close To Home. Conflict Close To Home. Yes, as emmanuel conflict Close To Home. Yes, as Emmanuel Macron conflict Close To Home. Yes, as Emmanuel Macron said conflict Close To Home. Yes, as| Emmanuel Macron said earlier, conflict Close To Home. Yes, as Emmanuel Macron said earlier, we understand, we have been there, we have gone through those attacks. We had the paris attack, the bataclan attack, the neat attack. It has traumatised that french people and he is here to show that we understand what you were going through and want to show our support, but there was one element in the conversation earlier where we could see a tiny bit of criticism where he is saying we would like those attacks to be targeted. Targeted attacks on gaza and on these Terrorist Groups, but we are not, he was not really insisting that much on this element on that occasion. He that much on this element on that occasion. ,. , occasion. He used the word focus, focused attacks, occasion. He used the word focus, focused attacks, and occasion. He used the word focus, focused attacks, and we occasion. He used the word focus, focused attacks, and we know occasion. He used the word focus, i focused attacks, and we know france is one of the eu voices that they saying there should be some kind of humanitarian ceasefire in order to help aid and to protect innocent civilians in the gaza strip, even though the eu isnt speaking with one voice on this. One voice on this. Yeah, i think this is what one voice on this. Yeah, i think this is what he one voice on this. Yeah, i think this is what he is one voice on this. Yeah, i think this is what he is trying one voice on this. Yeah, i think this is what he is trying to one voice on this. Yeah, i think this is what he is trying to do. This is what he is trying to do today. One of the diplomatic side of this conversation is trying to talk to open a new political path, in his words, and to potentially go towards a ceasefire. First of all humanitarian truce to help the hostages out, but then the word ceasefire is starting to appear in the vocabulary of some diplomats, but obviously we know from the reaction of the Americans Last night it is not something they are ready yet to go into. Mi it is not something they are ready yet to go inta it is not something they are ready yet to go into. All of the hostages, 220 peeple. Yet to go into. All of the hostages, 220 peeple. Need yet to go into. All of the hostages, 220 people, need to yet to go into. All of the hostages, 220 people, need to be yet to go into. All of the hostages, 220 people, need to be released i 220 people, need to be released from gaza before they can be any talk of ceasefire, according tojoe biden. We have heard Emmanuel Macron plasma visit will last for two days in the region and president biden, as well as Emmanuel Macron really focusing their thought on the hostages still inside the gaza strip. And meanwhile israel says it has kept up its bombardment across gaza overnight, aimed, it says, at hamas, but as we have been hearing from our correspond in the south, a lot of civilians have suffered from the strikes. Freed after more than two weeks in captivity. In a video released by hamas, nurit cooper and Yocheved Lifshitz were handed over to representatives of the International Committee of the red cross. Not before 85 year old Yocheved Lifshitz turns to a masked hamas gunman, shakes his hand and says, shalom, hebrew for peace. Hamas is designated a Terrorist Group by many western governments, including the uk. The women were taken out of gaza and into egypt to be flown back to israel. Both had been kidnapped by hamas gunmen from their homes in nir oz. The scars of looting and destruction still mark the empty kibbutz. Many residents were among the 1,400 killed in israel on its deadliest ever day. Yocheveds husband, 83 year old oded, is still in captivity. Yocheveds daughter sharone, who lives in london, spoke exclusively to the bbc on a flight to tel aviv. I am very excited. Ijust saw pictures of my mum with ourfamily. They are all in the hospital. Im very worried for my dad, so its a very mixed emotion. Its wonderful to see my mum and her grace it comes across, shes quite something. Im so proud of her. The International Red cross helped secure the release of the hostages. We have called repeatedly for access to those that remain detained, that remain as hostages, and we will continue to do so. Right now, our goal is to be glad that these people will be able to make it home safely to their families. Across gaza, theres widespread destruction, as israels military has continued to pound targets from the air. It says its preparing unrelenting attacks to dismantle hamas. But most of the more than 5,000 palestinians whove been killed are civilians. The United Nations says 20 lorries of aid entered via the Rafah Crossing yesterday with food, water and medicine, but no desperately needed fuel to power hospitals and pump water. Its estimated that 1. 4 Million People are homeless, including the abwasi family who are originally from blackpool, speaking here at the Rafah Crossing. We had to run from our house in the middle of the night and many buildings near us have been bombed and that. One night we had to run to the hospital because we heard noise in the street and we thought the house across from us was going to get bombed. And now were just here today waiting for the Rafah Crossing to open. Inshaallah. The release of two more israeli hostages, the third and fourth in three days, gives just a glimmer of hope that International Mediators can achieve more. Yolande knell, bbc news, jerusalem. And we have just been hearing a media update from israels Defence Forces who confirmed that they continued with heavy bombardment across the gaza strip overnight and they said that there will be long weeks of fighting ahead. We canjoin now live our chief international correspondent, on their israel, gaza border. These long weeks of fighting ahead, although Daniel Hagari the Idf Spokesperson said there were fewer rockets and missiles being fired overnight from gaza at israel. It has been relatively quiet here this morning. There have been days where there are barrages of rockets, usually towards the end of the day, fired into communities close to the border, including where we and others have been broadcasting from and in ashkelon, further north, there have been days when there is a constant wail of the air raid siren. There were some yesterday but he does appear that there are fewer, but in that statement you quoted from there was a cautionary note from there was a cautionary note from there was a cautionary note from the israeli Defence Forces saying they know that hamas still as missiles defy and it is part of a psychological strategy of hamas to ease the pressure and then to strike back again. With all of the preparation that went into that unprecedented assault on october the 7th, it is widely believed that hamas will put the same preparation into preparing for that day and it would no israel would come in on the ground and, it may have, we just dont know, what kind of arsenal it still has and is able to use when the moment comes. Still has and is able to use when the moment comes. Israel accuses hamas of using the moment comes. Israel accuses hamas of using the the moment comes. Israel accuses hamas of using the civilians the moment comes. Israel accuses hamas of using the civilians inside | hamas of using the civilians inside gaza as Human Shields and of hiding amongst the civilian population, but israel said it has asked Gaza Civilians and again in this briefing today asking them to move to Southern Gaza at israel focused on hamas infrastructure but we know overnight israeli air strikes did also target the south where more than i also target the south where more thani million Palestinian Civilians have moved to. Than1 million Palestinian Civilians have moved to. Have moved to. Yes, it is interesting, have moved to. Yes, it is interesting, almost have moved to. Yes, it isj interesting, almost every have moved to. Yes, it is interesting, almost every day now they are reiterating their coal to gazans to leave their homes in the north for their own protection but abbott reporting from the area, from the United Nations say their shelters in the area are over capacity and they have set up these encampments which for palestinians in gaza have such a horrible echo. The vast majority of residents of gaza are either refugees from the i948 gaza are either refugees from the 1948 arab israeli war, the ancestors of that war, and they feel one generation after another continues to live this drama and i were reports from the ground and the United Nations says the barman meant is continuing. The israeli Defence Forces said they were bombing the north stop the bombardment are continuing. Israel has even asked hospitals to close down in the north of the gaza strip, which they say is impossible. They say this Evacuation Order is a death sentence, such Strong Language at this time. This order is a death sentence, such Strong Language at this time. As he was speaking Strong Language at this time. As he was speaking to Strong Language at this time. As he was speaking to us, Strong Language at this time. As he was speaking to us, we Strong Language at this time. As he was speaking to us, we are Strong Language at this time. As he was speaking to us, we are looking at pictures, the rubble inside gaza. Israel insists it is focusing its air strikes on hamas infrastructure and members of hamas. It says it doesnt target civilians but as we know the number of civilians caught up know the number of civilians caught up in this conflict, the number of deaths, including women and children, is impossibly high. This is something that israel blames on hamas for operating out of the gaza strip, but of course these pictures are being broadcast Around The World and inflaming passions and tensions across the middle east. Tensions are going Around The World, huge protest we have seen in so many places, supporting israels right to defend itself and others supporting palestinian demands forjustice, for the palestinian state, an immediate ceasefire. Every morning, israel gives a tally of how many targeted a stroke. Yesterday was said to be intense bombardment. Stroke. Yesterday was said to be intense bombardment. Today, they are tellinu intense bombardment. Today, they are tellin us intense bombardment. Today, they are telling us about intense bombardment. Today, they are telling us about more intense bombardment. Today, they are telling us about more than intense bombardment. Today, they are telling us about more than 400 telling us about more than 400 strikes. They continue to say they are destroying hamas infrastructure above ground, including command and control centres, communications, killing key members military and political in the network, but it is so densely populated, no matter where you hit there are civilians close by, churches, hospitals close by and the impact of those thunderous bombardment, there is always the innocent court in the way and weve been hearing from the United Nations, from international for your saying every country has a legitimate right to self defence, but not to collectively punish a whole population. fin but not to collectively punish a whole population. But not to collectively punish a whole population. On the israel, gaza border. Whole population. On the israel, gaza border, thank whole population.

We are bringing you up to date with fast developing events on the ground and in the world of diplomacy across the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. Lets look at some of the other stories making the news. Hundreds of thousands of uk workers will see a 10 pay rise from today if the employer is signed up to the voluntary real living wage scheme.

You are live with bbc news. Joining me now for the very latest on the ground is our correspondent. When we chat these days, i dont know where to start. There is the aerial bombardment of gaza, civilian suffering, increased tensions in the north with hezbollah militia and tensions across the region and diplomacy. We had the french president here today, Emmanuel Macron. What can you help to achieve during his visit . This macron. What can you help to achieve during his visit . During his visit . This is a solidarity during his visit . This is a solidarity visit during his visit . This is a solidarity visit with during his visit . This is Aj Solidarity visit with israel during his visit . This is a solidarity visit with israel and dont forget there are 30 french israelis who were murdered on the 7th Of October by hamas gunmen. He is here as a sympathetic voice. It has already met with the israeli president and has been talking about how it should be a First Priority to bring back hostages after those two elderly israeli women released overnight, they were the third and fourth of the hostages to come out, we know there are more than 200 hostages still being held inside gaza. Now we are expecting mr macron to go to meet the israeli Prime Minister and he will be meeting other officials but he is also here with a wider message, because he is also going to go to the palestinian president mahmud bass, a political rival of hamas and potentially go to other countries in the region. And other countries in the region. And france does other countries in the region. And france does feel other countries in the region. And france does feel this very Close To Home amongst that unprecedented massacre on the 7th Of October, the 1400 victims, the french nationals there and also amongst the hostages in gaza and dual nationals, french passport holders amongst the civilian population in the gaza strip. Mr macron was very careful with his Press Conference with israels president today. The reference he made he would Palestinian Civilians there was at israel should focus its targets against terrorist inside the gaza strip, but we know france is in favour of the cessation of hostilities to help civilians. He went to hostilities to help civilians. He went to that meeting straight from the airport where he had been Meeting French israelis being caught up Meeting French israelis being caught up in this file who have lost loved ones as well, and i think the political message is reserved may be more for the israeli Prime Minister. We know that they talked prior to this trip about the importance of humanitarian pause to allow ageing, with desperate shortages of food or water and if few well and that has not gone in in the past few days, despite the number of convoys entering through the Rafah Crossing. We expect there will be talk of wider need to end a regional conflict, not to let this mushroom, this action happening here with a lot of concern about what is happening in northern israel, the west bank and arab leaders looking at what is happening, wondering what will happen with their own populations. Will happen with their own pepuiations will happen with their own oulations. ~. , ~. , will happen with their own oulations. , ~. , populations. What kind of impact can this diplomatic populations. What kind of impact can this diplomatic visit populations. What kind of impact can this diplomatic visit have, populations. What kind of impact can this diplomatic visit have, because i this diplomatic visit have, because in this very dark hour in the middle east with so many people scared of conflict spreading, there is talk the world cant afford to ignore palestinian demands for their own state any more, that attention has to return to talk of peace. We have had a lot of to return to talk of peace. We have had a lot of analyst to return to talk of peace. We have had a lot of analyst saying to return to talk of peace. We have had a lot of analyst saying in to return to talk of peace. We have had a lot of analyst saying in the i had a lot of analyst saying in the past few days that world attention has switched away from the israel Palestinian Conflict and as a correspondent who is based here usually, i can say that is we have felt. The world has been caught up with other events, ukraine, the rise of china, other things they have prioritised and recently as far as israel is concerned it looks like Normalisation Deals with arab countries in the region without making peace with the palestinian. Now it looks like it is not something you can brush under the carpet, that there are leaders looking to the future here as well as the immediate situation with the war and saying, as the immediate situation with the warand saying, in as the immediate situation with the war and saying, in the end, palestinians have to be given some hope, there has to be some way out of this decades old conflict.

Hamas which is proscribed as a Terrorist Group by the uk and many other western governments said it released the women for humanitarian reasons. Their husbands are among the 220 hostages still being held. The two hostages were handed over to representatives of the International Committee of the red cross at around 10pm local time monday night. It is our duty to fight against this Terrorist Groups.

They are extremely terrified, they are talking about how this attack on them by israel is extremely difficult nay different from the previous attacks. This time, they feel every person is a target for israel, and, this time, israel is not warning many homes to evacuate their homes before attacking. Last night, there was an entire family killed in an area, rafah, so no place is safe. A family member, he was in khan yunis, south of the gaza strip, there was bombing there, so he said, it is better that i go back to where i was, my home, where i feel dignified, it is extremely scary everywhere in the entire gaza strip. What happened to him . He was killed with his family, only his wife survived. Only two of his children. The rest of the family is dead. � ,. , children. The rest of the family is dead. � ,. , dead. Im very sorry for your loss, the suffering dead. Im very sorry for your loss, the suffering of dead. Im very sorry for your loss, the suffering of families dead. Im very sorry for your loss, the suffering of families here dead. Im very sorry for your loss, the suffering of families here is i the suffering of families here is immense. Of course, here in israel, there are daily reports about the survivors of families who were massacred on the 7th Of October, Family Members of the hostages inside gaza. When it comes to Palestinian Civilians, israel insists its focus is on hamas and hamas infrastructure. Insists its focus is on hamas and hamas infrastructure. It | insists its focus is on hamas and | hamas infrastructure. It is hamas infrastructure. But. It is t in to hamas infrastructure. But. It is trying to avoid hamas infrastructure. But. It is trying to avoid civilians. Hamas infrastructure. But. It is trying to avoid civilians. That hamas infrastructure. But. It is trying to avoid civilians. That is i trying to avoid civilians. That is not what we trying to avoid civilians. That is not what we see, trying to avoid civilians. That is not what we see, as trying to avoid civilians. That is| not what we see, as observers. Trying to avoid civilians. That is not what we see, as observers. What we hear from not what we see, as observers. What we hearfrom personal account. One thing, and as a duty by all the International Mainstream media, they have to tell their audience that you have to tell their audience that you have no presence, no International Journalists allowed by israel to go to the gaza strip. Gaza city, non. Non not even palestinian journalists are recovering from gaza city. Many people, including my friends and Family Members did not leave. You are talking about people in their 80s and 90s were to leave at the situation. A palestinian journalist, they moved, they want to protect their families and children. They do not want to die. All of them were afraid, so they moved to the south of the gaza strip. What are they doing now . They are relying on images done by the cameramen and the photographers. And so are you, and so are all of the International Mainstream media stop we are missing Human Stories from gaza. Gaza has been reported. We are looking at it as a news item, we are not covering it as a human story. These children, more than 1000 children, we do not have their life stories. We do not have their life stories. We do not have their life stories. We do not have their dreams, we do not have their names, and that is missing. And that is really terrifying. October the 7th, the human story from israeli narrative, it was covered, and it was done. He he lit, the palestinian narrative is not there. We are covering again gaza as a news item, and that is really terrifying. We are talking about genocide, katya adler. Mar; really terrifying. We are talking about genocide, katya adler. Magi about genocide, katya adler. May i ust talk about genocide, katya adler. May i just talk about. About genocide, katya adler. May i just talk about. We about genocide, katya adler.

I mean, i that. It is terrifying, you are talking. I mean, i am that. It is terrifying, you are talking. I mean, i am afraid| that. It is terrifying, you are talking. I mean, i am afraid that my family will be wiped out, and so are these palestinians. Even the journalists, even the people who work for you on the ground, it is so terrifying. Youre talking about wiping out families with the green light of the International Community. At the beginning, everybody was blaming hamas for going too far, but then, the fact that the International Community gave the support to israel without any consideration to the international law, that made people angry, and all of the anger is now moved to the International Community. Moved to the International Community moved to the international communi. ~ , community. We did definitely see in that very hastily community. We did definitely see in that very hastily organised community. We did definitely see in that very hastily organised cairo that very hastily organised cairo summit at the weekend, where there were leaders from arab nations and representatives from the European Union as well, for example, very low representation, from the united states. There were accusations being made about the anger that you are talking about being directed at eu countries, for example, and accusing them of hypocrisy, of how they view them of hypocrisy, of how they view the war, russias invasion in ukraine. Obviously, there is a terrible civilian suffering on the ground. We have rushdi abualouf, our reporter. We have other reporters from the arabic service, they are people who live in gaza, they are gazans, and you are right, internationaljournalists gazans, and you are right, International Journalists are gazans, and you are right, internationaljournalists are not being allowed on the ground there. So through social media and camera there we are getting an insight into what is going on Around The World. In Southern Gaza, Gazans Civilians should move south, it was said today. Hospitals cannot evacuate, there have been air strikes also over the south today. The Aid Situation is something that International Leaders are bringing up International Leaders are bringing up very strongly with israel. Do you think these diplomatic visits and pressure can make a difference . I hope so, but i do not see that they are exerting really effort. Now, i think that president biden, what he said yesterday, lets release all of these hostages, civilians, and then we will talk about a ceasefire. But that is it. I think that Benjamin Netanyahu is aiming to go forward, given that he himself is afraid to stop this, because then he will be indicted for sure. So, this is a scary moment, because at the beginning, they give israel the green light and all of a sudden now, how can we stop because it is madness. It is really going too far. I mean, the number of children being killed. No, you are right, there are reporters, palestinian reporters, covering. But in the south, i am talking about gaza city. No one is in gaza city apart from the aljazeera correspondent. That is terrifying. Israel, i think. Someone. You have to push so hard to be there, it is genocide, you have to cover it, because it is extremely different. I cover the attack of 2008, 2009. Im extremely different. I cover the attack of 2008, 2009. Attack of 2008, 2009. Im really sor , we attack of 2008, 2009. Im really sorry. We have attack of 2008, 2009. Im really sorry, we have to attack of 2008, 2009. Im really sorry, we have to break attack of 2008, 2009. Im really sorry, we have to break off attack of 2008, 2009. Im really sorry, we have to break off their. Sorry, we have to break off their tutor time. Thank you so much for joining us from amsterdam. That was a palestinianjournalist joining us from amsterdam.

An inquest is underway in new zealand into the deaths of fifty one people who were murdered by a white supremacist four years ago. The australian attacker is already serving a Life Sentence our correspondent phil mercer has been following the story and told me what the key questions are for this inquiry. One this inquiry in new zealand is the countrys one this inquiry in new zealand is the countrys biggest one this inquiry in new zealand is the countrys biggest and one this inquiry in new zealand is the countrys biggest and most i the countrys biggest and most complex inquest. It aims to look into the past of those awful events of march 15, 2019, and also to look to the future to make recommendations to ensure that an atrocity of this kind never happens again. There will be fundamental questions for the coronial investigations, to try to answer. It will look at the immediate Emergency Response after the gunmen stormed those two mosques in the city of christchurch new zealands south island. It will also ask other questions was the gunmen acting alone . Did he have direct help from anyone else . And also it will look at specific concerns about, for example, an Emergency Exit at one of the mosques that apparently was faulty, and may well have prevented some of those worshippers escaping the gunmen. Many of the questions for the inquiry to try to answer. Survivors and families of the victims and said that the truth, the bigger picture, the full picture of what happened four and a half years ago is an essential part on their Journey Towards healing. Um . Ago is an essential part on their Journey Towards healing. Why has it taken so long Journey Towards healing. Why has it taken so long for Journey Towards healing. Why has it taken so long for this Journey Towards healing. Why has it taken so long for this inquiry Journey Towards healing. Why has it taken so long for this inquiry to i taken so long for this inquiry to taken so long for this inquiry to take place . If i understand this correctly, the events of that day four years ago have not been fully investigated because the man who was convicted pleaded guilty. I think that what we convicted pleaded guilty. I think that what we have convicted pleaded guilty. I think that what we have had convicted pleaded guilty. I think that what we have had in convicted pleaded guilty. I think that what we have had in the i that what we have had in the intervening 4. 5 years is protracted criminal proceedings against brenton tarrant. He is serving a life in prison with no possibility of parole on 51 counts of murder. 41 counts of attempted murder. And an act of terrorism. Those criminal proceedings have time to be protracted, there is a royal commission. Now its time for this long awaited inquiry to continue. It will take an six weeks. Longawaited inquiry to continue. It will take an six weeks. Will take an six weeks. Scientists sa it is will take an six weeks. Scientists say it is impossible will take an six weeks. Scientists say it is impossible to will take an six weeks. Scientists say it is impossible to prevent i will take an six weeks. Scientists| say it is impossible to prevent the melting of the west Antarctic Ice sheets are melting caused by greenhouse emissions. Nature Climate Change journal warns warming oceans are causing rapid erosion of ice to be inevitable. This delegate from the un Climate Change conference told us more about what this study means. A grim picture. The west Antarctic Ice sheet which is very important in stopping sea level rise. Our Emissions Targets might be insufficient to avert that damage. However, i do not think realism is the antithesis of hope. Despite the fact that we have these concerning patterns of glazier mass loss, yes, we have sea level rice, coastal erosion, and the prospect of millions of people being displaced by Climate Change, i do not think that this is a reason to throw in the town and give up hope. I do not believe that we are fated to this destiny in which Climate Change causes the impact that we are totally unable to terminate around on. I mean, we really have to understand that there is importance in adaptation and resilience. Even as we continue to decrease our emissions, we can ensure that the population most severely affected by Climate Change have time to get a handle on the situation and build the infrastructure to be resilient. I do not think that this is time to lose hope completely, even though its jolts your eyes open a problem is. I do watching bbc news.
