a line of breaking news before the sport coming from new york with the reuters news agency reporting that the un security council is due to vote later today on a draft resolution that calls for urgent and extended humanitarian pauses and corridors throughout the gaza strip for a sufficient number of days to enable aid access. that is according to diplomats, some diplomats say they expect the 15 member council to adopt the resolution although some countries were likely to abstain. the resolution needs nine foes and could be vetoed, so a vote is expected later in the day on extended humanitarian pauses and corridors through the gaza strip, so we will keep an eye on that and bring you more as it comes in. now let's head to the bbc sport centre. isaac is therefore us. let's start at the cricket world cup where virat kohli has scored his 50th odi hundred, breaking the record of fellow indian legend sachin tendulkar. kohli's milestone occured in the first semi—final against new zealand in mumbai where the hosts were brilliant with the bat, posting a mammoth 398 runs for new zealand to win. the black caps innings got off to a tough start as they lost two wickets early on but captain kane williamson and daryl mitchell came in to steady the ship. mitchell hit a century but in the last few minutes the skipper williamson has been caught for 69 and they lost tom lamtham for a duck. they are currently 221—4. some fallout from the cricket world cup, as pakistan's babar azam has resigned as captain in all three formats. despite optimism ahead of the tournament, pakistan were disappointing winning just four times from their nine matches and failing to qualify for the semi—finals. babar scored 320 runs in nine matches during the world cup and said that he would continue playing for the team and would support whoever is chosen as the new captain. carlos alcaraz got his first ever atp finals win as he swept aside russia's andrey rublev 7—5, 6—2 in straight sets. the wimbledon champion lost to alexander zverev in his red group opener on monday but the world number two got through a tight opening set to via a break in the 11th game. rublev was visibly frustrated throughout the match and alcaraz capitalised in the second set, winning the final 12 points. still to come, alexander zverev will take on danil medvedev in the late match. rory mcilroy has resigned from the pga tour's policy board with the american circuit embroiled in high level negotiations over how to fund its future. mcilroy�*s shock decision was revealed in a memo to the tour�*s players issued by commissionerjay monahan. mcilroy had been a steadfast critic of the saudi arabia funded breakaway liv tour and was regarded as an arch pga tour loyalist. the northern irishman had spoken to the press on tuesday but gave no indication that he was about to resign. in the women's champions league, holders barcelona got their campaign off to a straight forward start with a 5—0 win at home to benfica. meanwhile ada hegerberg scored her 60th women's champions league goal as lyon opened their campaign with a nine—goal demolition of slavia prague. the only british side left in this year's tournament, chelsea, kick start their campaign with a difficult game away at real madrid in emma hayes�* final tournament with the blues. wouldn't she love to end this campaign in may lifting the trophy? the minnesota timberwolves won their second in—season tournament game as they beat the golden state warriors 104—101 but the match was marred early with three ejections inside the first two minutes of the match. warriors guard klay thompson and jaden mcdaniels got tied up with each other in transition before they began pushing each other. that started a melee and draymond green put t—wolves center rudy gobert into a headlock. thompson and green were ejected along with mcdaniels. the warriors were already without injured star man steph curry as they lost their 11th straight match they were putting their hands on us and it got physical right away and i thought the referee did a really good job of cleaning it up. i thought the suspensions, or the objections, rather, where the right ones, and they were warranted. there is no way klay — ones, and they were warranted. there is no way klay thompson _ ones, and they were warranted. there is no way klay thompson should - ones, and they were warranted. there is no way klay thompson should have been thrown out of the game, he's running _ been thrown out of the game, he's running up — been thrown out of the game, he's running up the floor and the guy grabs— running up the floor and the guy grabs his — running up the floor and the guy grabs hisjersey and he is pulling on him _ grabs hisjersey and he is pulling on him and — grabs hisjersey and he is pulling on him and klay pulls back in no way klay should — on him and klay pulls back in no way klay should have been injected, ridiculous. and then the draymond piece _ ridiculous. and then the draymond piece of— ridiculous. and then the draymond piece of it. — ridiculous. and then the draymond piece of it, if you watch the replay, _ piece of it, if you watch the replay, he had his hands on klay's neck_ replay, he had his hands on klay's neck and — replay, he had his hands on klay's neck and that's why draymond went after rudy~ — neck and that's why draymond went after rudy. it was a bizarre way to start _ after rudy. it was a bizarre way to start the _ after rudy. it was a bizarre way to start the game, a minute and a half in. , ., ., , in. the semi final heating up with new zealand _ in. the semi final heating up with new zealand kneeling _ in. the semi final heating up with new zealand kneeling 170 - in. the semi final heating up with new zealand kneeling 170 to - in. the semi final heating up withj new zealand kneeling 170 to beat india —— needing 175 runs. israel says the hospital compound conceals an underground command centre used by hamas, a claim doctors deny. tanks entered the hospital complex in the middle of the night to search the site, interrogating patients and medical staff. the hamas designated terrorist organisation by many western governments. amid smoke games at conditions inside the hospital with power cuts due to a lack of fuel, patients are being moved. we cannot verify when the footage which comes from the gaza hamas run health ministry was filmed. but overnight, israel began what it said was a precise and targeted operation at gaza's biggest hospital. a witness described six tanks and dozens of commandos moving in here. since taking control here, israeli forces say they've brought in baby food and medical supplies. they're searching the hospital, where they believe there's an underground tunnel network used as a hamas command centre. hamas and medics deny that. the military inisists there's been no friction with hospital staff. israel is at war with hamas, not with the civilians in gaza. the idf forces include medical teams and arabic speakers who have undergone specified training to prepare for this complex and sensitive environment. and arriving from egypt today for the first time since the war started, a delivery of diesel. this after the un said yesterday it had to stop its aid distribution in gaza due to the lack of fuel. but still supplies cannot enter the hospitals, to run gaza's power plant or water—pumping stations. for now, rain — which had begun falling heavily — is a much—needed water source. but it's also a grim reminder of how, with the onset of winter, humanitarian conditions here look set to worsen. i'm joined from jerusalem, by our correspondent, nick beake, in terms of what you are hearing, the latest from the al shriever hospital, what is it? it’s the latest from the al shriever hospital, what is it?— hospital, what is it? it's really important _ hospital, what is it? it's really important to _ hospital, what is it? it's really important to point _ hospital, what is it? it's really important to point out - hospital, what is it? it's really important to point out from i hospital, what is it? it's reallyl important to point out from the outset it's almost impossible to verify to what is going on at the hospital and there is a dearth of photographs and videos coming out of what is the biggest hospital in gaza but i can take you through what various people are saying, first of the israelis and eyewitness journalist we've spoken to today and also a doctor within the hospital. first of all the israelis say it is a targeted operation and this is a sprawling hospital and the israeli say they've gone into one specific place and they are acting with great calm and care and said they went in with medics and arabic speakers and are explaining to people what is happening and that systematically they are working their way through they are working their way through the hospital because there are hamas fighters and a bunker and a big headquarters underneath which is something that hamas has denied. in terms of the eyewitness journalist talking to the bbc, he's been saying that men were made to go out into the corridor and he said some of them were made to strip off down to their underwear, and they went out into the corridor and into the courtyard of the hospital and he also described the scene when the soldiers came in, also doctors have been talking about what's been happening and they say that the operation is being played out in a place where they have no power, no electricity and no food and no medicine, so those are some of the strands we are trying to bring together today, strands we are trying to bring togethertoday, but strands we are trying to bring together today, but as i say, it's hard to talk with certainty about what's happening at al—shifa. hard to talk with certainty about what's happening at al-shifa. martin griffiths has been _ what's happening at al-shifa. martin griffiths has been briefing _ what's happening at al-shifa. martin griffiths has been briefing the - griffiths has been briefing the media in the last little while and talked about the carnage in gaza that cannot be allowed to continue, talking about the steps that the un have put forward to rein it in. take me through some of the things he is suggesting. me through some of the things he is su: acestin. , me through some of the things he is su~aestina. , ~ me through some of the things he is su~aestin-. , ~ . .., me through some of the things he is su~aestina. , ~' . .., ., suggesting. yes, i think, crucialto this, is creating _ suggesting. yes, i think, crucialto this, is creating some _ suggesting. yes, i think, crucialto this, is creating some sort - suggesting. yes, i think, crucialto this, is creating some sort of - suggesting. yes, i think, crucialto this, is creating some sort of safe | this, is creating some sort of safe route for people to leave and what we've heard from the israelis in the past few days as there have been these safe routes for people to leave the hospital and then moved to the south of gaza as they've been instructed to do by the israelis for four or five weeks. and whether that becomes academic now the israeli forces are inside the hospital we have to wait and see but a state department in the us as well as doctors in the hospital have been asking for some sort of third party to come in and secure the safety of the people in the hospital. remember, you have the hospital staff, and patients and potentially thousands of people who thought they would be safe and they would be in a place of santry by going to the hospital, so the idea of a third party is something a lot of people would welcome and one doctor told the bbc today, where are the british? where are the americans and the red cross? and i think that need for a third party is something that a lot of people would want at this really difficult moment.— a lot of people would want at this really difficult moment. nick, thank ou ve really difficult moment. nick, thank you very much. _ really difficult moment. nick, thank you very much, live _ really difficult moment. nick, thank you very much, live in _ really difficult moment. nick, thank you very much, live in jerusalem. . live now to ramallah where we can speak to dr sabri saidam, deputy secretary general of fatah central committee. thank you so much for being here on the programme. where do you think we are, five weeks and more into this war?

if think the international community should be doing now?— think the international community should be doing now? if you would allow me to _ should be doing now? if you would allow me to answer _ should be doing now? if you would allow me to answer one _ should be doing now? if you would allow me to answer one point - should be doing now? if you would allow me to answer one point on i should be doing now? if you would i allow me to answer one point on the 7th of october, i would say, israel had given its reasons as to why it was doing so, but does that mean you killed 2 million people? 0r subject them to such horror? as far as the people are concerned in gaza, and i have a family in gaza, i have lost members of my own family. i can tell you that israel has not so far attacked and killed 11,000 people and scores and scores of those of palestinians, and they have killed 2 million people because imagine the psychological trauma and the infrastructure damage. the international community, the meeting of the security council where representatives of the international community will be there and it is important now that they get their act together and not allow this to continue. what needs to be done after gaza is a total solution to the arab—israeli conflict. this cannot be in any way put aside or marginalised or postponed and has to be a collective intervention. sure. be a collective intervention. sure, but before — be a collective intervention. sure, but before we _ be a collective intervention. sure, but before we get _ be a collective intervention. sure, but before we get to _ be a collective intervention. sure, but before we get to talking - be a collective intervention. sure, j but before we get to talking about what happens after, we are still in the middle of this war and you are referencing the un security council and the vote coming up in a few hours' time but in terms of the likelihood of an elongated pause, would that be the time to look to try to get a large group of hostages released. and do you think that is at all possible?
