Israels military has rejected accusations that its forces buried the bodies of palestinians at a medical complex in gaza. More than 200 bodies were found under the courtyard at the hospital in khan younis. The city of baltimore is taking legal action against the operators of the Container Ship which hit and destroyed one of its main bridges last month. The lawsuit says the Container Ship, the dali, was clearly unseaworthy, and had an incompetent crew. The ships owners have already asked a court to limit their liability. Good evening. The british Prime Minister rishi sunak said the deaths of at least five migrants, including a seven year old girl, that were attempting to cross the channeljust hours after his rwanda deportation legislation passed the commons, were a sobering reminder of why the governments plan is important. These were the chaotic scenes on a beach near calais this morning, just before daybreak as a group of migrants, attempted to launch their boat on the journey to england. The boat which was leaving wimereux, just south of calais had been overloaded with 112 migrants. The boats motorfailed, causing a panic in which some people were crushed. Some fell into the water some were rescued, others were found unconscious in the boat. The authorities have been carrying out search and rescue operations at sea through the day. It is still unclear whether the five dead were crushed or if some drowned. Our correspondent Andrew Harding was on the beach when the incident happened. Okay. Were just running to catch up with some migrants here. Made a break from the dunes, trying to get to the water. Police chasing them. Theres another group here, more than 100, id say, migrants. Some sort of fight going on, the police. On a flight to poland today rishi sunak told reporters that his plan to send Asylum Seekers to rwands will eventually deter to rwanda will eventually deter vulnerable migrants from making these perilous crossings. So far all attempts to break the Business Model of the criminal gangs has failed and as andrew witnessed this morning once the migrants had boarded the inflatable boat, the police made no further attempt to stop them. Home Office Figures released yesterday showed the number of migrants arriving by small boats had increased by 2a to 6,265 in the first four months of this year, compared to last year. Human Rights Groups have been critical of the rwanda plan, but there are other countries looking at similar policies. The Home Secretary was in italy today to visit lampedusa, which for many migrants is the first european port of call. Italy has also signed a third country deal with albania, who will house up to 3,000 migrants in two centres for italy while their Asylum Requests are being processed. Also in italy today a representative from denmarks immigration committee. The Danish Parliament passed legislation three years ago, that would enable them to send migrants to a third country for processing. They are watching the rwanda plan closely to see how effective it will be. Thomas skriverjensen is the chair of the danish immigration and Integration Committee and a member of the danish social democrats. I asked him if denmark was ready to follow rishi sunak� s lead on sending migrants overseas. It is still our plan to use a third country option. We believe its the best way. We believe it has to do with other countries in the eu and we look to be able to do that in the near future. Lets bring in our panelists. I watched the police who were not allowed to go into the water. I look at the amount of money spent so far, but half £1 billion invested over the next three years. I wonder what the next three years. I wonder what the solution is. Would labour really be ready to scrap the rwanda plan if it came to government . It be ready to scrap the rwanda plan if it came to government . It came to government . It was a terrible tragedy it came to government . It was a terrible tragedy could it came to government . It was a terrible tragedy could what it came to government . It was a terrible tragedy could what happened in the channel this morning. Five people dead including a seven year old girl. I think the depressing thing is, when you look at the rwanda plan in my view is flawed on many levels. I think it actually will fail on the Prime Ministers own terms, which is his test if it works is will it deter people from crossing the channel . Im afraid to say when you got desperate people willing to risk their lives and people crossing the channel they know they are risking their life, the childrens life, they are living in desperate circumstances. Many of them with legitimate Asylum Claims flee in places like iraq, syria, afghanistan. When people are willing to risk their lives, the small percentage chance it might end up at rwanda, lets not forget that a scheme caters for 300 people at the moment.

Tue evidence is Deterrence Migrant flows we have seen . Tte evidence is deterrence isnt very effective. People who want to try to claim asylum in europe, its a very small proportion of the Worlds Refugees to come to europe, the vast majority of refugees or middle Income Countries close to where they come from. I dont think these Deterrence Effects work. The other thing is that weve got a deal for 300 people with rwanda. We havent got any other deals. None of these other countries have deals house is going to work in practical level . You did ask about labourers alternative proposal, it is to put much more money into processing Asylum Claims quickly. To me that seems like a fair thing. Seems like a fair thing.

Around the world and across the uk. This is bbc news. Welcome back. In other news today rishi sunak announced the uk will steadily increase its Defence Spending to 2. 5 of gdp by 2030. The Prime Minister was speaking in the polish capital warsaw. The government says it is the biggest uplift in Defence Spending in a generation and will put the uks Defence Industry on a war footing. As we make our historic commitment to increase Defence Spending to 2. 5 of gdp, we will move past the stop start piecemeal way of backing ukraine, so that alongside our long term security guarantee, we are today providing a long term Funding Guarantee of at least the current level of Military Support to ukraine for every year it is needed. That is the longest commitment any nation has provided, and it shows that ukraine is not allowing, and that ukraine not alone will never be alone. Mr sunak was in poland to pledge an extra 500 Million Pounds of military aid for ukraine which was welcomed by nato secretaryjens stoltenberg. That will include some of the latest equipment the stormshadow, which is the longer range cruise missile. In washington the senate has just begun debating the house package that was passed on saturday votes tomorrow on the 61 billion for ukraine. This was the moment yesterday when the zelensky met with a bipartisan delegation in kyiv including the democrat congressman bill keating from massachusset gave him a document with the official tally of saturdays vote. Hello, sir. Bill keating, from massachusetts. Good to see you. And i have something that you are really going to like. Yeah . This is the official tally of the vote. Yes, i see. For the supplemental aid, and look at that vote, 73 . Yes, thank you so much, 73. Thats a good vote. Very good. Thank you so much. Im not sure where president zelensky will put that certificate. He might put that 27 held up the vote which is why hes been waiting for aid for the last six months anyway, were making progress. I want to ask you whether the statement from rishi sunak today changes the emphasis in washington . If your main ally is saying were now in a war footing and were spending 2. 5 , does it isolate people like Marjorie Taylor green . No. I think theres an International Narrative no. I think theres an International Narrative that there is an isolationist group of the gop, especially in the house. Certainly there especially in the house.
