could take 1a years to remove. the un mine action service says 37 million tonnes of debris would need to be cleared away. a spokesman said it wasn't possible to determine how much unexploded ordnance was in the rubble, but that typically at least 10% of ground ammunition that's fired fails to function. also in gaza — the bbc has learned that a baby who was rescued from her dying mother's womb following an israeli air strike in gaza has died. sabreen was delivered by caesearean section in a rafah hospital shortly after midnight last sunday. doctors resuscitated the baby but she passed away on thursday. our special correspondent fergal keane followed the story of sabreen. and a warning — you may find some of his report distressing. well, we got the news late last night in a phone call from an uncle of baby sabreen, who said that she had died yesterday morning and the family had buried her by 1pm. now, this story begins last saturday night with an israeli air strike on the family home. the israel defence forces say they were going after hamas operatives and hamas infrastructure. the missile hit the family home. it killed sabreen�*s father. it killed her three—year—old sister, malak, and then her mother, badly injured, was rushed to a local hospital, and that's where we saw these dramatic scenes of baby sabreen being born. she was born through a caesarean section on her mother, and then doctors tried to resuscitate her, tapping her chest to stimulate breathing, putting an air pump into her mouth and then placing her in an incubator, and it looked at that time as though there was a fragment of hope, that out of this terrible tragedy, some life would survive. of course, at that time, we should point out, doctors were saying her condition was critical. and indeed, one of the doctors, dr salama, who looks after the emergency care in the neonatal unit at emirati hospital, he did say, "if she survives". well, we now know that that didn't happen. baby sabreen joins the 16 other children who were killed that weekend in air strikes by israel. we are told also by family members that they would have been more than willing and were indeed happy at the prospect of adopting her. mirvat al—sakani, the maternal grandmother of baby sabreen, when ourjournalist colleague visited her in the refugee tent where she's living, she was scrolling through photographs of her daughter, speaking directly to her daughter and promising that she would take care of the child, along with the paternal grandmother, and also saying in that interview that she did with us, "well, you will see baby sabreen in heaven". this is how the story ends, i'm sad to say — baby sabreen dying, doctors doing their very best to try and save her, but not being successful. a british surgeon who has just returned from gaza after spending two weeks working there, says the work—load is ten times more than his hospital could handle. junaid sultan was working at the last fully functioning hospital in the region — the european hospital, which is located between khan younis and rafah. he says most of the injuries he and his team dealt with were from firearms, burns and bomb blasts — with many acute trauma patients also suffering chronic illness. a short time ago i spoke with drjunaid sultan to learn more about his experience in gaza. the experience has been an eye opening and i do not have words to describe it. it's a very mixed sort of feeling, actually. and we were there for two weeks with a team of about 15 surgeons, including anaesthetists and our intensivist as well. we were two surgeons from uk and rest of the team was from usa. what we saw was a whole diversity of patients and the majority of them were actually affected directly by the war, which were the wounds directly related to the firearm bombs, burn, shrapnel injuries and any complication from the wounds from the war. then i would also highlight there was another very large number of patients who in the last six months who were treated due to the war injuries and because when they were treated in the other hospitals and those hospitals were destroyed. so they basically have nowhere to go or to be followed up. and there is a very high risk of complications in those patients due to lack of antibiotics, lack of painkillers, lack of food. and the patients are emaciated, no immunity. and these complications were coming in a very high number to the only functioning hospital at a european hospital. and the third group of patients were the patients with the chronic illnesses like diabetic, renal patients, cancer patients with no medications, immunocompromised patients and many other categories. so that was increasing the flow of this patient, this hospital, beyond capacity, essentially. how many children did you see and can you say what the majority of the problems were? a lot. every day we were seeing so many children and women which were directly impacted as a result of these warfare injuries. we had a paediatric surgeon from uk who was part of our mission as well. so i myself removed a bullet from the thigh of an eight—year—old child. and i have shared those images already. and the paediatric surgeon, he treated many paediatric patients with directly continued blast injuries, firearm injuries, firearm injuries which were close to any blood vessel you could think of in the neck, arm, spine, near the spine. and also, i shared some very distressing images of the blast injuries. a ten—year—old who presented with both the legs completely destroyed and just mangling. and there was nothing we could have done. and we had to just do the amputations on both the legs. and these are just the few examples. this is what we were seeing every day in large numbers. just finally, briefly, if i may, how is the hospital actually functioning? how is it getting its supplies, for example? thank you for asking it. this is a very, very important information. and i want to raise the fact, because the hospital is getting the supplies, basically what the medical missions are bringing with them and which they are kind of you know, although there are medical missions which are coming, but they are not enough. and the hospital as well as there are many field hospitals which cover a lot of the camps in the peripheral areas, they are not getting any supply at all. so there is a huge need for medicines, including antibiotics, painkillers, particularly patients who are with cancer and immunocompromised. there is a huge deficiency of all of them and we need to form a system by which who gets special permission and all those medications and medical supplies and other equipment can be transported to the health care facilities, basically. a doctorfrom a doctor from the uk who went to work in gaza there. the us has announced that construction is now under way of a temporary pier off the coast of gaza as part of efforts to prevent famine in the strip. the initiative — announced in president biden�*s state of the union address last month — is expected to facilitate the delivery of significant amounts of humanitarian aid within weeks. merlyn thomas, from bbc verified, has been taking a closer look at the logistics. with the un predicting that famine is now almost inevitable in gaza. after more than six months of war, the us has announced a plan to deliver aid to palestinians via an offshore pier that is now under construction. the drop—off point is likely to be here just south of gaza city via a jetty built by the us charity world central kitchen, specifically for the purpose of bringing aid ashore. that's because washington has said that no us troops will be stationed on the ground in gaza during the process. this is satellite imagery and you can see that thatjetty was built in march and it's been in use since then for small aid deliveries. and us ships like these will be involved in the building of the floating pier. they set off from america a few weeks ago, and on the marine traffic app, we can see the location of two such vessels, the general frank besson, which is in the mediterranean, and the roy p benavidez, which appeared off the coast of gaza yesterday. now the us has used this kind of project previously for disaster relief missions in countries like haiti and somalia, for example. so let's talk through how this works in theory. so the plan includes a big floating dock and a causeway in a pier. and remember, both of these components need to be assembled at sea. so the aid will arrive on larger vessels to the floating dock here, and it will be unloaded onto smaller vessels, which will then take it onto the pier here. the whole point of the floating element of this project is for us forces to avoid boots on the ground. for this plan to work, security of the forces and aid is essential. remember, there's a possibility of hostile fire from an active war zone, as well as large crowds of desperate civilians gathering on the shore. also, this isjust about the delivery of aid once it gets into gaza. then comes a question of distribution, which will be a huge challenge. the quickest and most effective way to get supplies into gaza is by road. but aid agencies say israeli restrictions mean only a fraction of what's needed is making its way in. this is bbc news. around the world and across the uk. let's get more now on donald trump legal situation. his hush money trial continues in new york — with the former president having spent much of the last fortnight going to and from the court—room in manhattan. the prosecution will outline their case that donald trump covered up payments to stormy daniels in the run—up to the 2016 election. when donald trump arrived, as has become his custom, he spoke to reporters before entering.— his custom, he spoke to reporters before entering. yesterday when very well in this courthouse. _ before

hear the arguments, it was brilliant, i listen to it, it was great, the judge's questions was great. all president have to do immunity. it is nothing to do with me. he said he thought the case was going well, he complained about the temperature and slammed the judge and wished his wife a happy birthday. she has not been here in court, his family haven't been here in court, but he says he will

witness in this case, david pecker, the former publisher of the national enquirer. remember, prosecutors called him to really lay the foundation of their case. he testified that he had worked with donald trump's campaign because donald trump and michael coleman asked him how he could help donald trump's campaign. he said he would be the eyes and years for them, to look out for any negative stories and publish unflattering stories and publish unflattering stories about their opponents. prosecutors say it was part of a criminal conspiracy to influence the election, david pecker outlined a few of these kind of schemes, as he put it, and he said he worked with prosecutors, he admitted to committing crimes in a nonprescription agreement, so you agree to cooperate with prosecutors if he wasn't charged with any wrongdoing. the defence is trying to poke holes in the prosecution's case. they have gotten david pecker on the stand to say it was standing procedure for a tabloid to work to kill negative stories. they had done so for almost all snag a and tiger woods. they got david packer on the stand to say it made national sense for the national inquiry to do it, it wasn'tjust about for the national inquiry to do it, it wasn't just about helping donald trump's campaign, it was a mutually beneficial relationship. the cross examination will continue, but one legal expert i spoke to said the defence has two hurdles to clear. the fact that david pecker understand admitted to wrongdoing to campaignfinance understand admitted to wrongdoing to campaign finance regulations, and the fact the stormy daniels payment came up, he refused to pay at because his legal advisers and the company said it wasn't a good idea. just to let you know, joe biden has said today he would be happy to take part in a debate, a tv debate with donald trump. he says i'm happy to debate him, he doesn't know when yet. the us election is a few months away in november. scotland's first minister, humza yousaf, has said he will not resign from the position — despite facing a no—confidence vote at holyrood next week. yesterday he terminated a coalition with the scottish greens — saying he was prepared

they're a violin case — belonging to the man who led the orchestra on deck as the ship sank in 1912 — and a gold watch worn by one of the richest men in the world. duncan kennedy reports. it was supposed to be the defining standard of nautical opulence. the titanic — totemic of a new era of human achievement. but on the night of april 14th 1912, the ship hit an iceberg in the north atlantic and sank. more than 1,500 people died. now, two of the most valuable personal items ever recovered from the disaster are coming to auction — a bag and a watch belonging to two people whose stories have become fables from that fateful night. the james cameron movie titanic... hey, astor! depicts both men. well, hello, molly. johnjacob astor, the wealthiest man on board and one of the richest in the world, and wallace hartley, the violin player who bravely led the orchestra to calm passengers' nerves as the vessel floundered, each man central to the film's narrative of bravery and loss. in real life, both hartley and astor died that night, their bodies and their possessions recovered in the aftermath. you've got the bag and the watch? correct. andrew aldridge, a world expert on the titanic, says hartley possibly tried to use his violin case and its straps as a flotation device, but it came to nothing, whilst jj astor's 14—carat gold pocket watch was discovered amongst his personal effects in the days after the tragedy. why is there this continuing public obsession and interest in all things to do with the titanic? i honestly think it's to do with the people. she transcends so many different levels. we're fascinated in her because of who was on board. you could argue that titanic is the most famous ship that's ever sailed, apart from the ark. so what might they fetch at the auction? well, the estimated price on the bag is £120,000. and for the watch, it's £150,000, and just shows the continued interest areas in all things titanic. wallace hartley's violin itself was sold separately in 2013 for £1 million. it's now on display at the titanic museum in belfast. tomorrow's auction, streamed live, will attract bidders from around the world, ready to spend as they save these unique items from a ship enshrined in maritime folklore. duncan kennedy, bbc news. let's catch up with the weather. hello there. one thing that's been in quite short supply this month is sunshine. so i'm sure these sunny skies that we have through friday morning would have been welcomed. but it was a cold start for some. cumbria had temperatures down as low as minus six degrees celsius. and through the afternoon, we did see quite a few showers develop, as you can see here on the afternoon radar picture. some of those showers worked into cornwall. you can see quite big thunderclouds here on the horizon of helston. now during this evening and overnight, we got outbreaks of rain moving into southern england, perhaps reaching the far south of wales. a few showers for northern scotland, but otherwise the day showers will melt away. clear skies for scotland, northern ireland and northern england will allow another widespread and sharp frost. in the south, it's frost free because we've got that cloud and rain moving in. and this weekend we are going to see this area of low pressure move up from spain, bringing with it some quite heavy rain for a time. now, on saturday, we'll get some rain pushing into southern england early in the morning, reaching across parts of wales into the midlands and east anglia. as that moves in, there'll be a chilly northeasterly wind, perhaps a few heavy showers into southern england into the afternoon. for northern ireland, northern england and scotland, after a cold and frosty start, there'll be some sunshine, but showers will be around into the afternoon and it's going to be another chilly day. temperatures 10 to 13 degrees for sunday. 0ur area of low pressure moves in from spain, bringing rain across quite large areas of england, working into east and scotland. west is best. that's where we'll see the driest weather. not completely dry, though. it will be a day of sunshine and showers out west. temperatures 10 to 13 degrees. so it's another chilly day. but this is the last of the chilly days. as we head into next week, we're going to see temperatures rise as much milder air gets pulled in from europe. but with low pressures around about the uk, it's not exactly going to be a dry forecast. on monday we start to see some of that milder air arrive on these southerly winds. outbreaks of rain, though, pretty extensive, probably the wettest weather for northern ireland, probably south western parts of england and wales seeing rain, eastern areas this time seeing the driest weather. but these temperatures are rising and climbing back to average for this time of the year and that warming trend continues into next week. in the warmest spots, we could see temperatures reach the high teens or even low 20s, but there will be some showers or outbreaks of rain around as well. bye for now. live from london. this is bbc news. america's top diplomat tells the bbc he's prepared to take
