The World Health Organisation previously said Hospital Staff had no choice but to bury the bodies of dead patients within the hospital while under israeli siege, but palestinians accuse Israeli Forces of killing some of the victims. The Israeli Military said it is checking reports about the bodies recovered from the mass grave. Israel accuses hamas of using medical facilities as Command Centres which hamas rejects.

Ukraines president Volodymyr Zelensky says a multibillion dollar Military Aid Package approved by the us house of representative of saturday, will give his country a chance of victory over invading Russian Forces. The bill now goes to senators for approval, before heading to the president s desk. In an interview on Us Television the ukrainian leader said more weapons will help kyiv retake the initiative in the two year conflict especially long range missiles. Ukrainian forces are facing mounting pressure against russian troops, especially on the eastern frontlines. The us assistance comes as Russian Forces advance west. They seized the strategic town of avdiivka back in february. Earlier, Russias Foreign Ministry condemned the us aid package, saying the us is wading deeper into a war that will end in its humiliation. 0ur Ukraine Correspondent james waterhouse, has the latest from kyiv. A Production Line Waiting for a president ial sign off. Freshly made Artillery Shells in this factory in pennsylvania, usa now almost certain to make their way to a ukrainian battlefield, where there are holes instead of rounds. After america threw its weight back behind ukraine the message here is you make it, well use it. Near kupiansk in the north east, its the russians who are edging closer. Translation its better now if we let them attack and we defend but when we get the shells, drones, and whatever else in this package, we can turn things around. Its hoped this us aid will save ukrainian lives and cities like kyiv but its been a painful wait. Translation our guys need help because they have nothing to protect us. We always need help because without it, our enemy can advance further and can be in the centre of our city. Translation of course it is not too late. In any case, it is needed, and whether it would be later or earlier, in any case it will help. There has been a constant flow of diplomats through kyiv as they have tried to pave the way for this bill to be passed. Better late than never is the reaction we are hearing this weekend. Never would have meant almost certain defeat for ukraine. However, late still means itll be difficult for kyiv to change momentum on the battlefield straightaway. Translation this aid will strengthen ukraine and send the kremlin a powerful signal that it will not be the second afghanistan. The United States will stay with ukraine and it will protect democracy in the world. This is a show of leadership and strength. While the west has wavered, russia has stayed committed to its invasion. Ukraine needs to make americas return count to keep moscow and western doubt at bay. The question is now whether this american intervention, the return of american supporters going to be a Turning Point in this war. I think, in the near term, it certainly steers this conflict away from an approaching russian victory. But for ukraine for it to be a Turning Point, allotments to happen. It firstly needs to take back territory thats been taken, needs to punch through 40 taken, needs to punch through a0 fights Tractor System going miles long or it needs to make righteous occupation in some areas unsustainable by cutting of supply lines, mounting successful Missile Strikes and probing attacks and forcing Russian Forces to withdraw then, were talking about a significant change of tide in this war in ukraines favour. The kremlin has dismissed this weekends events as being doomed and double down on its desire for what it still calls a special Military Operation to succeed. But the return of the american support and this seismic, Military Package were £50 billion, means an already long war is going to be much longer. But there are some things here in kyiv that ukraine just things here in kyiv that ukrainejust might things here in kyiv that ukraine just might have a say in how this warrants. 0n how this war and is.

Niger was a key Security Partner to us Counter Terrorism operations in the sahel region until its government was removed in a Military Coup lastjuly, straining ties between the two countries. Last month, nigers suspended a Military Accord with the us and has since welcomed Russian Military instructors and equipment. It is one of several west african countries where Military Leaders cut links with their traditional western allies while strengthening ties with russia. Some people in niger say the us didnt do enough for their country. Translation in niger today, everyone is looking for a place. We wa nt we want them to leave our town because they been doing nothing for a few years and weve seen nothing. We want them to leave our region for good.

A short while ago i spoke to cameron hudson, hes a Senior Fellow at the center for strategic and International Studies africa program. Very good to have your weather is here on bbc news. We saw thousands of people coming out in the capital of any share last week, protesting against the us presence there. Niger. Coming at a time a strained relations over the relationship and then, the us military agreeing to leave, just talk to us about how all that came about .

Well, i think its all going back to july its all going back tojuly last year when a democratically elected government which was very close ally of the United States was overthrown in the Military Coup and has been under house arrest since that time. Washington has been pressuring the Hunter Leaders says and stand to release him and to put the country back on and to put the country back on a path to water democratic transition, they are stalks of been strained from many months and i think it over time, we have seen the nigerian Transitional Government reassert their sovereignty, more and more, we have seen in the last few months our rage to russia, outreach to putting some distance themselves and their traditional backward friends. Iran. This is the last tab which is a months process where the hunter has asserted itself and push back against the request and demands even of washington To Notjust Go back to a democratic formal government, but also to allow the government of washington to remain, to keep its strong base active and ongoing inside the country. {iii active and ongoing inside the count. , active and ongoing inside the count. ,. ,. , country.

Of course, one of the things of the us troops are things of the us troops are engaged in with ongoing fight against islamist insurgents, what do you think that means for the particular situation . Well, which is in the last few months, because we have to recall the military assistance has been suspended since the coup detat, washington has beenin coup detat, washington has been in a very limited sense to operators droned but not shared that intelligence with the nigerian authorities on the us law and so, were already seeing the nigerians ground to extremist elements in the country but what this now does is it makes washington blind to the moods that the islamist are making throughout the region. Its not forget that these roads are used to operate from the Atlantic Ocean to the red sea to the mediterranean so, its a huge area that washington is no longer going to have intelligence coverage over. �. , to have intelligence coverage over. �. ,. , over.

I dont think its i ideological as it is the fact that if they cannot get the assistance that they need from washington, they are going to get it from someone else and when washington suspended its Security Assistance and intelligence sharing assistance when the crew have been, the nigerian authorities were desperate to backfill that assistance and so, the most logical place for them to turn right now, given that the russians are now in neighbouring countries was to mask out. But i think the other important factor for washington is, we havejust now important factor for washington is, we have just now started to see Russian Military advisers arriving in niger and they brought with them service to air missiles, missal Defence Systems which niger doesnt need given the Terrorist Threat that it faces on the ground so the on the other way to interpret this new arrival of Missile Defences is as a shot against washington and a warning to washington that if it chose to try to continue conducting joint flights, that they would run the risk of being shot down by this Russian Air Defence system.

It turned out to be the warmest on the gear. With temperatures reaching 90 degrees. By contrast, much further east across the uk it remains cold. Particularly so across North Eastern parts of england with cloud and breeze coming in off the north sea. High pressure is close by attempting to edge away, allowing these Weather Fronts to bring cloud and even brain southwards overnight. Ahead of that, clear skies for east anglia in the southeast. Temperatures could be close to freezing first thing in the morning before that cloud comes in. There will be a lot of cloud on monday. We have the slight rain and drizzle affecting northern england, the midlands and wales, heading towards the south west, could be few spots of rain heading towards scotland. Not as much sunshine in Northern Ireland. Not as warm on monday. It may make 16 degrees in glasgow but it will be particularly chilly for the midlands and eastern parts of england. That area of High Pressure continues to just get pushed away and these Weather Fronts move southwards overnight with clear skies though following into scotland. Could be an early frost around here. Most of the cloud will affect eastern parts of england heading to the southeast and northerly wind follows and the Odd Light Shower around dorsey coast. Cloud will tend to build up the sunny skies for Western Scotland, and here temperatures will be 13 1a degrees and it will be colder further east of them the next few days west will be best. But High Pressure is no with us by wednesday, but we are still with that colder air stream with northerly wind bringing the odd shower down some of those north sea coast where it will feel particularly cold. We may see A Touch Of Frost here and there if cloud breaks but the cloud will tend to build up through the day on wednesday and that could lead to a few showers, mainly for england and wales. Looking a bit sunnier perhaps Western Scotland and Northern Ireland but temperatures 11 degrees in belfast and that will be a typical best number on wednesday. It is going to be a chilly week ahead. Temperatures dropping across Northern Areas and even the risk of frost overnight before lower pressure maybe bring some rain by the end of the week. Tiktok� s future hangs in the balance in the us as lawmakers move closer to banning the Popular Social Media app. Well explain. And oil markets breathe a sigh of relief as Iran Downplays last fridays reported Missile Strike by israel. Hello and welcome to Asia Business report. Im steve lai. The clock is ticking on tiktok in the United States as the House Of Representatives passed a bill that would ban the Popular Social Media app if its chinese owner does not sell its stake within a year. Monica miller has more on this story from our newsroom. Monica, tell us, our days numbered for tiktok in the United States . The bill heads to the senate which is expected to take it up within the next few days and President Biden has said that if it lands on his desk he will sign it. There is much that washington lawmakers do not agree with but on this particular issue there is bipartisan support. At the heart of the issue is tick tock� s chinese owner by chance. Many lawmakers say there are National Security concerns and they are worried that the darter of us users will wind up in the hands of the Chinese Government. They are also worried that the Chinese Government is using this platform to promote propaganda to many users who happen to be young and this is the primary source of information. So if the bill is passed, bytedance will have to divest its part
