one of the un team shared what he saw at the hospital. from jerusalem, our diplomatic correspondent, paul adams, reports. how are so many people injured? with a shot or crushed in a desperate stampede? this hospitaljust reading some of the survivors, and now, for the first time since thursday, first—hand testimony from the un. this hospital is treating more than 200 people that were injured. we have seen people with gunshot wounds we have seen amputees, and we have seen children as young as 12. these events cannot be allowed to go on. this man is haunted by what he saw on the convoy. whether soldiers firing deliberately, he is asked. yes,. only the chaos was clear. how and why the shooting started is not properly understood. the crowds were huge, the panic palpable. israel said troops felt threatened. tanks were present. there is no evidence of aircraft being involved. the un finally reached gaza city yesterday, taking badly needed fuel and medicine to the hospital, demanding israel do more. to open up the north. jordan is still dropping aid from the air. the united states now set to follow suit. desperate to somehow make a difference, but ed drops i know

northern gaza, the need there is ever—more desperate. the world food programme has warned that "if nothing changes, a famine is imminent in northern gaza". according to local health officials, a tenth child in the area has now died there from malnutrition and dehydration. as hospitals struggle with a lack of equipment, several other children remain in a critical condition. the aunt of one child told journalists he didn't have enough milk. translation: this child is suffering from severe dehydration _ due to a lack of milk. his mum breast—feeds him, but she hasn't eaten and there is no artificial milk. he was rescued from the rubble when he was just a month old. he has lost 2a members of his family. some news about the attacks that have been taking place on shipping vessels off the coast of yemen. the uk maritime trade agency says there's been an attack 15 nautical miles west of the yemeni port of mokha. the crew of the vessel have been evacuated. separately, the cargo ship rubymar, which was abandoned in the red sea after being targeted by houthi rebels, has now sunk — that's according to the yemeni government. let's return to our top story — the united nations says its team visiting gaza's largest hospital has met many people wounded by gunshots as they crowded around an aid convoy on thursday. there have been international calls for an investigation into the incident. paul adamsjoins us paul adams joins us now. what is becoming paul adamsjoins us now. what is becoming apparent paul adams joins us now. what is becoming apparent about this incident on thursday? well, we know from what the un is telling us that the hospitals are full of people who experienced a variety of injuries. a lot of gunshots, both to the upper and lower body, but also a lot of people with crush injuries. in other words, evidence to support both theories about what happened in the early hours of thursday morning. one that is ready troops opened fire with deadly force, which the israelis acknowledge, although they say it was a limited intervention, and that a number of palestinians were killed as a result of the stampede that perhaps ensued in the chaotic scenes there. don't forget, it was dark, there. don't forget, it was dark, there were thousands of people present. we don't know why the israelis opened fire. the israelis said it was because their troops felt threatened. we don't know why that was. the result was that people were both shot and crushed, and a significant number, more than 100, we think, were killed. in a situation _ we think, were killed. in a situation where _ we think, were killed. in a situation where there - we think, were killed. in a situation where there is i we think, were killed. in a situation where there is a | we think, were killed. in a situation where there is a chronic lack of food and aid, one can expect a chaotic scenario to emerge, which is presumably why the night it states now says it is taking matters into its own hands?— states now says it is taking matters into its own hands? yeah, so this is absolutely. — into its own hands? yeah, so this is absolutely, and _ into its own hands? yeah, so this is absolutely, and i _ into its own hands? yeah, so this is absolutely, and i think— into its own hands? yeah, so this is absolutely, and i think everyone - absolutely, and i think everyone agrees about this, an inevitable consequence of the breakdown of law and order with the increase in hunger, the general sense of utter despair and hopelessness that exists in gaza today, and that is why we are seeing notjust those calls for an investigation coming from britain, america, france and other places, but also calls on israel to do more to get aid in. until that happens, we are seeing countries resorting to desperate measures. the jordanians have been using adults for weeks now and now it turns out the americans will do it as well. —— have been using airdrops for weeks was notjoe biden come speaking last night, sounds frustrated. he wants or access, less red tape, just a quicker effort to address this humanitarian situation before it gets any worse. humanitarian situation before it gets

would think that it was making life very difficult certainlyjoe biden sounded more pessimistic than he did at the start of the week. we also heard hamas announced that another seven israeli hostages had died, and the israelis were saying we need a list of how many hostages are alive or dead, and until we have that list, there can be no fruitful negotiations. we now learn that the negotiations. we now learn that the negotiations will continue tomorrow in cairo, and that the parameters of a deal do seem to be coming into place. despite the dreadful events of the last couple of days, it is still possible thatjoe biden's desire to get a ceasefire in place before the beginning of ramadan in a weak�*s time still might happen. thank you. the uk prime minister, rishi sunak, has warned that britain's democracy is under threat from islamist extremists and the far right. in an address outside downing street, he said the government and country must face down the extremists. mr sunak�*s unexpected intervention follows the by—election victory of the controversial far left politician, george galloway, whose campaign in a seat with many muslim voters focused on gaza. our political correspondent, laila nathoo, reports. the prime minister arriving back at downing street last night, ahead of an unusual address to the country from outside number 10, to warn that extremists were spreading poison. there are forces here at home trying to tear us apart. since october the 7th, there have been those trying to take advantage of the very human angst that we all feel about the terrible suffering that war brings to the innocent, women and children. to advance a divisive, hateful ideological agenda. his speech was prompted by the election of the controversial veteran politician, george galloway, in thursday's by—election in rochdale. last night, he held a victory rally in his new constituency. he had fought his campaign promising to stand up for the people of gaza, and had this response to the prime minister's condemnation of his stance on the middle east. i won, and people are going to have to get used to it, don't ask me questions that you asked me all through the campaign. i won, and that argument is closed. my views were my views and they were endorsed by the electorate. rishi sunak said protests about the war in gaza had descended into intimidation, threats and planned acts of violence, and claimed democracy was being undermined. the labour leader, sir keir starmer, said that the prime minister was right to condemn unacceptable and intimidatory behaviour. but in describing george galloway�*s victory in rochdale as "beyond alarming," the prime minister also took aim at the uk's newest elected mp. unofficial figures from iran's parliamentary elections held on friday put the turnout at about a0%, which would be the lowest since the islamic revolution in 1979. iran's rulers had been pressing for high participation to help repair the regime's reputation after nearly two years of protests, sparked by the death in custody of the young woman mahsa amini. the bbc hasn't been allowed to report from iran for five years, but now our correspondent, caroline davies, has been given rare permission. the marks, made. the polls are closed, but the question is how many voted. at a central tehran polling station, a celebratory mood. this is one of the polling stations where both foreign and local media are directed to come, which means that for some, it's also a place that they come to if they want to be seen to be voting. a newly married couple, former ministers and families like mr rohani's, out to cast their votes here. translation: those who don't vote are cutting themselves off— from their own fate. they are saying "we don't want to decide the future of our country". for me, it's not the right choice. early polling suggested that this could be a record low turnout across iran, but officials are optimistic. translation: the presence of people today proves that all the threats - to the country and all the negative propaganda of the foreign media has failed. still, people have come out. iran has suggested that failing to vote risks undermining the country's security, but some have other reasons not to. shoppers were nervous to speak to foreign media today. one woman agreed, but anonymously. translation: the economy is very bad. everything has gone very expensive and the salary we get is very low. even if i vote or not vote, my demands are not solvable. some analysts think a lost turnout means lost faith. low turnout means dissatisfaction — dissatisfaction on cultural issues, on political issues, on economic issues. you feel that people have lost their interest in politics in general, and this low turnout will be another sign of that too. final turnout is pending. today's ballot comes at a sensitive time for iran abroad, as the authorities are counting their popularity at home. caroline davies, bbc news, tehran. now it's time for a look at today's sport. the idea of blue cards in football — sending professional players to a sin—bin — has been ruled out by fifa. football's rule—makers gathered in scotland for their annual general meeting, and while it's expected to approve further trials of sin—bins at lower levels of the game, the propsoal to use a blue card for this is likely to be ditched. fifa president gianni infantino said he wanted to protect the essence of the game. no, there will not be any blue cards used at elite level. this is a topic that is is nonexistent for us. fifa is completely opposed to blue cards. i was not aware of this topic, and i am the president of fifa, and i think fifa has a say in the ifab, so i do not know if you want the title, it is red card to the blue card, i don't know. liverpool can go four points clear at the top today, if they can beat nottingham forest, who are nowjust a place above the relegation zone. managerjurgen klopp, who's stepping down from managing the club at the end of the season after nine years in charge, knows the gaps fragile, though, with his rivals right behind them. it is only one point above city, and only two points above arsenal. but that means nothing. 60 points is a statement at this point in the season. but stay under 60 and i'm not sure we qualify for the champions league, to be honest. we had better keep winning football games. also on saturday, chelsea make the short trip to face brentford. everton welcome west ham united. fulham take on brighton, newcastle face wolves and tottenham meet crystal palace. the early evening game sees luton take on aston villa. bayern munich could end the weekend 10 points off the top of the bundesliga after dropping points against freiburg. christian gunter fired the mid—table hosts into a lead with a fine 20—yard strike. bayern thought they had turned it round with two goals, including mathys tel�*s curling effort, but lucas hurler struck an 87th—minute volley to snatch a point for the hosts. england captain harry kane's dreams of a title, then, in his first season in germany seem to be fading, and it could spell the end of the munich outfit's decade of total dominance in german football. bundesliga leaders bayer leverkusen play tomorrow, but the clubs chasing champions league football feature on saturday. fifth—placed leipzig travel to bochum whilst dortmund in 11th are at union berlin. 3rd placed stuttgart are away to wolfsburg. the big game in spain sees valencia take on leaders real madrid. and the first race of the formula one season gets underway in less than two hours time. it's business as usual for red bull's max verstappen after coming out on top in qualifying for the bahrain grand prix. the three—time defending champion has taken pole position for the race, which is taking place on saturday because of ramadan. verstappen finished ahead of ferrari's charles leclerc. mercedes' george russell was third quickest, but his team—mate, lewis hamilton, could only finish ninth. it was a lot of fun, actually. the track had a lot of grip. in the last two days, it has been tricky to get the whole lap together. the same in qualifying as well. you can naturally go a bit faster with the track ramping up, but to get everything out of it in 03 was more difficult. it was a little bit unexpected, but luckily i think the car came to us in qualifying and i felt happier with the whole car. and that's all the sport for now. commuter towns in england have seen some of the biggest rent rises of the last three years. new data from the property website zoopla show that rents have risen by more than a third in areas such as bolton, wigan and newport. cities are becoming increasingly unaffordable. our business correspondent, marc ashdown, has more on the numbers. the bbc teamed up with zoopla, as you say, that property portal, and we asked them to crunch the data to track rent rises over the past three years. so between 2020 and 2023 they looked at 65 areas, cities, large towns across the whole of the uk. for the areas which have seen the biggest increases. and this graph behind me tells the story. this is the average amount. this is the average amount rents have gone up across the uk, just under 31% there. and these are the areas that have seen the biggest increases. so the usual suspects in there, really — manchester, bolton, glasgow, as you'd expect. but an interesting trend really is six out of these ten are areas sort of close to cities, but not cities. i mean, bradford's a city, obviously, but these are sort of towns within touching distance of cities. but they've seen the biggest rent increases, places like luton, rochdale, wigan, newport, look, glasgow, though... sorry, bolton. one of these areas outside of a city which has seen the biggest rise look nearly 39% over the past three years. rents have gone up in bolton, 15% in the last year alone, we're told. and one estate engineer we spoke to said in his 23 years of work, it's been he's never seen anything like this. he described it as staggering. let's get some of the day's other news now. argentina's president, javier milei, has vowed to "speed up" his plans to overhaul the country and solve its economic woes in a fiery speech to congress. mr milei, speaking to lawmakers in a state—of—the—union style address, took an aggressive tone, inviting congress tojoin him but warning that he would make changes with or without the legislature. three people have been injured in a south london shooting. two of those were hurt whilst drinking inside a pub at clapham common when they were hit with shotgun pellets by a rider on a moped, who was being pursued by police. sydney's annual mardi gras pride march in australia has been taking place, but uniformed police were barred from taking part in the event after an officer was charged with the murder of a gay couple. a moment of silence was held for the victims, jesse baird and luke davies. a serving constable, who'd previously been in relationship with mr baird, has been charged with two counts of murder. a killer whale off the coast of south africa has been caught on camera hunting and killing a great white shark in less than two minutes. scientists say the behaviour showed the exceptional hunting skill of killer whales, but raised questions about how shark—eating orcas might affect the food chain in that part of the ocean. our science correspondent, victoria gill, has more. the shark—hunting orcas in south africa have fascinated scientists since they were filmed working together to kill great white sharks back in 2022. now there's been a solo attack. it's filmed from a boat and tricky to make out in all the surface splashing. but watch carefully. the pointed dorsalfin at the front is a young, eight—foot—long great white shark with a solitary male orca in pursuit. two minutes later, scientists say the orca was consuming parts of the shark's liver at the surface. why would they go specifically for their livers? i suspect that it's quite an easily digested and easily obtainable part of the carcass. what really stands out is, is how skillful that behaviour has to be. these animals have clearly become able to handle what would otherwise be an absolutely terrifying creature and handle them very efficiently with some skill. the behaviour and intelligence of these marine predators is constantly surprising scientists. researchers are still trying to work out why a population of orcas in the atlantic that we filmed last summer have taken to deliberately ramming into sailing vessels. the orcas in south africa appear to have learned to attack the sharks from the side, avoiding theirjaws. it's risky, but experts say it makes sense because if an orca can tackle a great white shark, that's a very large meal. it's another snapshot of the hunting prowess of one of the ocean's most impressive predators. victoria gill, bbc news. the american businesswoman and fashion model, iris apfel, has died at the age of 102. she became, in her own words, "a geriatric celebrity" in her 80s,

the most highly—anticipated moments of paris fashion week, but victoria beckham's show has been disrupted by animal activists. members of the peta group stormed the catwalk to protest against the use of animal skins in the fashion industry. victoria beckham's brand doesn't use fur or exotic skins, but peta says some designs use leather. it's called on the former spice girl to use more eco—friendly fabrics. beckham made a brief appearance at the end of the show using crutches, following a recent foot injury. and before we go, we have some hair—raising footage from the us state of kentucky, where a truck was left dangling dramatically over the edge of a bridge after it crashed through a barrier. firefighters confirmed the driver was pulled from the truck using ropes and ladders, and was back safely on the bridge in about 45 minutes. it not yet clear how the incident happened. police say the driver was unharmed. hello. it was quite a start to the day for some of us. a covering of snow here and there. a reminder that winter isn't yet over, but we are technically into meteorological spring. the rest of today, widespread showers, cloudy, and the air over us is pretty chilly. but notice the wind coming in from different directions across the uk. the showers swirling around, but big gaps between the clouds as well, so there will be some clear skies into this evening across a number of areas. it is the forecast, at apm, you will notice that most of the showers and thick cloud will be across parts of central and northern england, into southern parts of scotland. a chilly evening, some spots only around two to four celsius, and clear skies developing in the south, as well as cross central and western parts of scotland. the showers and logger spells of rain move northwards across eastern scotland through the night. elsewhere, the skies will be clearing. tonight, temperatures in many areas will be freezing or below, certainly outside of town. the coasts won't be quite so cold, certainly in aberdeen it is closer to five again by the morning. these weather fronts to the north and east of us. sunday will be a brighter day for many of us. fewer showers around with these weather fronts to the north and east. i think feeling a bit less cold on sunday. the temperatures will be about the same, maybe a couple of grease higher in some areas, but typically around eight to 10 celsius. that takes us into monday's weather forecast. during the night, another weather system sweeps in from the atlantic, bringing thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain, spreading across ireland during the day. for eastern scotland and along that multi coast towards east anglia, monday should be dry and bright. so some sunshine for places like newcastle and hull, but rain for plymouth. a bit of a mixed bag this week with some sunshine around. it might feel a bit less cold with temperatures up to 12 degrees, but certainly a mixed bag on the way. this is bbc news, the headlines: the un says many of those injured in a rush on an aid convoy in gaza on thursday suffered gunshot wounds. hamas accused israel of firing at civilians — israel said most died in a stampede after troops fired warning shots. crowds continue to lay flowers for alexei navalny. russia's main opposition leader was buried yesterday in a ceremony which was tightly controlled by russian authorities. a human rights monitoring group said 45 people have been detained across russia. rishi sunak says islamist and far—right extremists are "two sides of the same coin". speaking outside number 10, the prime minister expressed concern over recent protests, asking the country to "stand together" to "combat the forces of division" counting has begun in iran's parliamentary elections. officials say the turnout was

speed. these are thejulian alps. they may not be quite as epic as their cousins in france or switzerland but, depending on what you're after,
