i know i'm a woman. today a day of sunshine and showers. tonight, heavy rain and strong winds coming our way tonight, heavy rain and strong winds coming ourway and tonight, heavy rain and strong winds coming our way and will be with us tomorrow. all the details later. it's tuesday the 7th november. it's one month on since the murderous hamas attack on israel that left moo people dead and around 240 taken hostage. 0vernight the israeli prime minister said the country will have "overall security responsibility" for the gaza strip for an indefinite period once the fighting is over. it comes as the health ministry in gaza — run by hamas — reported more than 10,000 people have been killed since the war began. hamas is designated a terrorist organisation by the uk. 0ur middle east correspondent yolande knell reports. one month on from the darkest of days. here by the western wall, the holiest place wherejews can pray, a candle was lit for each of the estimated moo lives lost. and outside, on the wall ofjerusalem's old city, the faces of some 240 still missing, being held hostage in gaza. israelis are still reeling from the horror of the 7th of october, the deadly deadliest day in their country's 75—year history. a day when a party ground became the scene of mass slaughter, when thousands of hamas fighters broke out of gaza and gunned down families. after he left his home to see what was happening, this man's wife and three children were snatched. it has been 31 days and that is too long to be without my kids and my wife and for them to be held captive in a foreign place, you know underground, a small room. i don't know what situation they are in health—wise, or they're being fed, taken care of. and forfour weeks, ordinary people in gaza have been paying a heavy price, with israel besieging the small coastal strip. and pounding it with air strikes, determined to eradicate hamas, which is in control here. the un calls it inhuman collective suffering. the figures are staggering, with health officials in gaza are now saying more than 10,000 have been killed, including over 4,100 children. some 1.5 million are homeless, including this woman. translation: the situation | is getting worse day after day. yesterday, they hit our relatives, 15 people, and we are displaced. there is no food, water. when my son goes to pick up water, he queues for 3—4 hours in line. they struck bakeries. we don't have bread. as israeli ground forces advance inside gaza, the prime minister is resisting international calls for a ceasefire and has been giving the first clue about what might happen here after the war. i think israel, for an indefinite period, will have overall security responsibility, because we have seen what happens when we don't have it. when we don't have that security responsibility, what we have is an eruption of hamas terror on a scale that we couldn't imagine. but israel's actions are being watched around the region, with growing fears of this conflict spreading. last night, israel says it struck targets belonging to the powerful armed group hezbollah in lebanon. the cross—border fighting is already the worst in years. so much about the past month has been unprecedented, including the scale of suffering, and there is still no end in sight. we can get more from yolande injerusalem. interesting the comments from the israeli prime minister about his country having overall security responsibility in gaza indefinitely. what is the significance? in general, he gave an interesting interview to an american network and also was asked about a ceasefire and he rejected that. that seemed to shift position slightly in line with what washington has asked for, saying tactical little pauses in fighting could be considered. he said that would allow in aid and hostages out, potentially. then the big question has always been what will happen, what is the endgame after the war? israel says it wants to dismantle hamas that has been governing in gaza. speculation of a role for the un, israel's allies, to bring back the palestinian authority that governs part of the west bank and is a political rival of hamas. now what he has said is indicating they envisage another israeli occupation. he said israel will have overall security responsibility for gaza and that will be indefinite. thank you. now more of the news including the latest on the planned protest for the weekend in london. the organisers of a pro—palestinian rally in london say they intend to go ahead as planned — despite an appealfrom the metropolitan police to postpone the march because it coincides with armistice day. senior officers say they are concerned about the risk of criminal acts by breakaway groups aimed at fuelling disorder. simonjones has this report. protests like the one seen on previous weekends would be provocative and disrespectful on armistice day, according to the prime minister. not being allowed to demonstrate peacefully to call for an end to the bombing of gaza, the organisers of the pro—palestinian protest say would be grotesque. but the met has issued a direct appeal to them. "please, we ask you to urgently reconsider. it is not appropriate to hold any protests in london this weekend". the met says it's concerned about a risk of violence and disorder linked to breakaway groups and it believes that risk is increasing. but the organisers of the protest say they've seen no evidence to back up that assessment and they accuse the government of putting political pressure on the police to intervene. the organisers point out previous protests have seen low levels of arrests. saturday's demonstration is due to begin an hour after the 11am armistice day silence and the planned route won't go near the cenotaph. a meeting yesterday with the police failed to break the deadlock. it is true that at that meeting they asked us and they said we're not telling you to do this, we're asking would you consider postponing for a week? we made clear why we didn't think that was necessary. but the home secretary has backed the police's plea. suella braverman wrote on social media. "the hate marchers need to understand that decent british people have had enough of these displays of thuggish intimidation and extremism". labour has accused her of making the police's job harder with inflammatory language. 0ne crowd control expert says any attempt to ban the march now could have serious consequences. i think the call is counterproductive. i think it's a dangerous move that runs a likelihood of amplifying the potential for problems rather than reducing it. but as things stand, the protest looks set to go ahead. simon jones, bbc news. tens of thousands of women in england could benefit from a drug that helps prevent breast cancer. anastrozole, used for many years to treat the disease, has now been licensed as a preventative option for women who are eligible and at high risk of the disease. trials show it can reduce the incidence of breast cancer by almost 50% in some women. the government is promising tougher sentences for violent criminals as it prepares for king charles to lay out its plans for the coming months at the state opening of parliament. it will be the first king's speech in more than 70 years. chief political correspondent henry zeffmanjoins us. what can we expect today? there are not many moments in the political calendar where a government, prime minister, get to kind of pause and grab the attention and say here is what we are all about and here is what we are going to do, and today is one of those days. it is also a day of pomp and pageantry. behind me in a few hours you will see the golden state coach going past, the yeomen of the guard searching the basement of the palace of westminster for gunpowder. we will hear about the cap of maintenance and the sword of state. it is an historic state 0pening because for the first time in more than 70 years, it will be a king's speech rather than the queen's speech. what will come out of the king's mouth will be around 20 laws that we are told the government wants to enact in the next year before the general election we know is hurtling down the track. what the government is choosing to prioritise at this late stage in the political session is really interesting. we are hearing this morning about crying, a new sentencing law that will mean tougher sentences, more rapists and murderers spending their whole life behind bars. we saw a focus on oil and gas yesterday, separate to the king's speech but today the government talking about imposing minimum service levels in sectors like the railways when they are on strike. the issues have in common that they are areas where the government thinks it can carve clear dividing lines with the labour party, so notjust about how they might govern over the coming year but also about the general election. when you see the king in the house of lords, talking about what his government will do over the coming year, you should bear in mind you are seeing the contours of next year's general election campaign begin to take shape. we year's general election campaign begin to take shape.— begin to take shape. we will be talkin: to begin to take shape. we will be talking to the _ begin to take shape. we will be talking to the justice _ begin to take shape. we will be talking to the justice secretary | begin to take shape. we will be l talking to the justice secretary on talking to thejustice secretary on the programme around 7.30. donald trump repeatedly clashed with a judge and defended his family's business as he testified in a civil fraud trial in new york. the former us president is accused of inflating the value of some of his properties to secure better financing terms. the judge warned him not to treat proceedings as a political rally and asked his lawyers to control him. donald trump denies the allegations. office—sharing firm wework has applied for bankruptcy in the us. 0nce seen as the office of the future, the move follows years of struggle for the co—working company, with the firm reporting liabilities of up 50 billion dollars according to documents filed in newjersey. british steel has announced plans to close down the coal—fired blast furnaces at its scunthorpe plant and replace them with electric equivalents. the new furnaces will be greener and cheaper to run, but unions claim it puts 2000 jobs at risk. 0ur reporterjessica lane is outside the plant for us this morning. what more can you tell us? we have just seen the shift change this morning at scunthorpe steelworks with lots of people going into work and many are concerned about this news. what is key in scunthorpe is there is such a close connection between the steelworks behind me and the town down the road. that has been going on for generations. someone yesterday said everyone in the town either knows someone who works here, knows someone who works here, knows someone who works here, knows someone who used to work here, or knows someone who wanted to work here. that is the key as to why the announcement yesterday that as many as 2000 people could lose jobs announcement yesterday that as many as 2000 people could losejobs here was such a blow. it will notjust be the impact of the 2000 people but the impact of the 2000 people but the impact of the 2000 people but the impact on their families and also businesses in scunthorpe saying they are worried about the impact of they are worried about the impact of the town if people are concerned about money, concerned aboutjobs. they are less likely to go into town and go to the cafe is, shops and spend money. businesses say that after covid and the cost—of—living crisis, when many people are already feeling squeezed, they are concerned about what impact this announcement could have on the town in general. british steel want to close the coal—fired blast furnaces because they are very expensive to run. they emit carbon dioxide and use huge amounts of energy. they want to open electric arc furnaces. 0ne here and one in teesside that takes scrap metal and melt it to be repurposed. they say that would mean a greener and more economically viable future. for people in scunthorpe however, they are waking up this morning concerned about their future and the future of the steelworks in scunthorpe. the prince of wales is in singapore for the third annual earthshot prize awards ceremony, which starts later this morning. prince william founded the ceremony in 2020 and each year five people are awarded a £1 million prize for their contributions to environmentalism — allowing them to expand on their innovations to help protect the planet. he spoke earlier about the impact the awards have had. really excited about this year's winners and finalists. last year, we had two companies, both have expanded by eight times and are moving into different countries. so it's all about scale now. myjob is to kind of bring the money in, capital, the private sector, into the earth shot and meet the solutions and go, come on, how can we scale, how can we do more?
