I wondered correspondent danjohnson. I wondered if we could start with a meeting Jake Sullivan is having with mr netanyahu. You are still trying to get some form of ceasefire . Yes to get some form of ceasefire . Yes, or at least a to get some form of ceasefire . Yes, or at least a guarantee to get some form of ceasefire . Yes, or at least a guarantee that to get some form of ceasefire . 1 1 or at least a guarantee that the Military Operation around raffle will remain restricted in order to limit the threat to palestinian lives. We know that the Military Offensive there has been intensifying over the last almost two weeks now and that has put nearly 800,000 palestinians back on the move in search of safety. The us has settled israel that if it conducts an all out assault on rafah it would seize certain Weapon Shipments to israel cease. Jake sullivan will be making ish events and trying to ensure that aid can get through to the palestinians in bringing this question of what happens and gaza when the fighting finally ends. Benjamin netanyahu his face that question repeatedly this week and has been growing pressure and division of what should happen with the military strategy, how that will conclude on what it can achieve in terms of success but then what comes next for the people of gaza and Benjamin Netanyahu has so far failed to engage with that question so i think this is the United States and others upping the pressure now, laying that demand that has come also from politicians at the top of israeli politics and is quite widespread amongst the israeli population as well. What is that Military Campaign supposed to achieve . Are hamas realistically to be eradicated . Will hostages be brought home safely and then what the people of gaza . How will they be built, how will they build coordination to reinstate as a possible infrastructure to lay down some sort of structure for a future in gaza. fin some sort of structure for a future in gaza. , in gaza. On that, it is interesting that mr sullivan in gaza. On that, it is interesting that mr sullivan comes in gaza. On that, it is interesting that mr sullivan comes to in gaza. On that, it is interesting that mr sullivan comes to israell that mr sullivan comes to israel after a meeting with the Saudi Crown Prince and he and the saudis could be quite key with the arab world. Absolutely, yes. Saudi arabia key partnerfor absolutely, yes. Saudi arabia key partner for the United States absolutely, yes. Saudi arabia key partnerfor the United States in wider Security Matters and that was first and foremost the intention of this visit of this meeting in saudi arabia but we also understand that Jake Sullivans been discussing the possibility of an Arab Coalition which the saudis would probably be the biggest and leading lenders. Leading members. Some sort of Arab States Alliance with other International Organisations backed by the us and other European Countries which could lead that future for gaza. Benjamin netanyahus not been join future for gaza. Benjamin netanyahus not beenjoin on future for gaza. Benjamin netanyahus not been join on a question. The anything that he said is that he was out working with the palestinian authority, which represents palestinians and governs the west bank. He believes that they are in alignment with hamas, supporters of terrorists, and thats why he said they are not for the government gaza. Mr netanyahu wont be drawn on who is and what shape that should take but in the meantime it seems the United States has taken the opportunity of talking to the saudis and others about what could be put in place if and when the fighting ends. Dan be put in place if and when the Fighting Ende Be Put in place if and when the fiaahtin ends. G. , fighting ends. Dan johnson reporting live from jerusalem. Fighting ends.

Its the final day in the premier League Title Race will it be Manchester City or arsenal . With that and the rest of the sport its life to 0llie foster. You tell me, it could go either way. We have team news in the next 45 minutes as the premier League Season reaches its climax. Ten teams kicking off at 4pm local time. It is in citys hands as they look to seal an unprecedented fourth title in a row. They only have to match the arsenal result against everton to be champions once again. Arsenal have to beat everton and Hope City Slip up. My feelings now, wejust focus on west ham. That is what you have to do. There is not any contamination in my brain, thinking about anything else than what we have to do to beat west ham. That is all i have in my mind since. Yeah, the day after the game against spurs. We have to do ourjob, which is going to be tough, because everton are in a really good moment. We have to prove again that we can be better than the opponent and win the game. And then, yeah, we have to wish for the best, we have to wish for west ham to have a really good day and help us to fulfil our dream. That is what we are hoping for. Tyson fury says he should have won last nights fight against 0lexander usyk, but thinks thejudges sided with the ukrainian because the country is currenty at war. Usyk is now the first four belt undisputed heavyweight World Champion after beating fury in a Split Decision in saudi arabia. It was what it was. Im not going to cry about spilt milk. Look, ive had plenty of victories and i gave god the glory. Ive had this one loss, in a close fight, with a good man like usyk. It was what it was. I tried my best in there. I was having a lot of fun, actually. I dont know if it looked like it, but i was playing around, hands behind my back, i was enjoying it. Hes a good fighter, i was catching him, he was catching me, it was a good fight. I hope you guys enjoyed it as much as i did. The fight swung in the ninth round, with some ferocious punching from usyk. A rematch has already been agreed for october, boxing pundit steve bunce was ringside in riyadh and says it was a fair result. Fury did think he had won, but he said, im a fighting man, i will take it. Two of the judges only separated them by one round. That shows it was a really tight fight, and it was a really tight fight. Had usyk lost, he wouldnt have screamed. Fury lost, he didnt scream. You might see him change the narrative over the next few days, thats just boxing, thats the way it works. As for the ninth round, thats one of the all time great heavy heavyweight rounds. In round six, usyk was trailing by a couple of points. He clawed his way back, in the ninth round he hit tyson fury, ill use an expression, now i finally know what it means, he was hit from pillar to post, his back hit every side of the ring in a ridiculous a0 or 50 second sequence, resulting in him toppling into the ropes, which, in boxing, constitutes a knock down. Britains Emma Raducanu has withdrawn from this weeks french open qualifying. The 21 year old, who won the us open title in 2021, hasnt played since losing in the first round of the Madrid 0pen Last month.

She hasnt given no reason for pulling out of qualifying. It could be an Epic Final Round in the uspga championship. The top of the leaderboard is so tightly packed at valhalla, shane lowry made the biggestjump in the third round, equalling the record for the lowest round at a major, 62. He had nine birdies in a flawless third round. The former 0pen champion is 13 under par, two shots behind the leaders Xander Schauffele and collin morikawa.

The continuing bad weather is hampering Rescue Efforts in the city of porto alegre, from where our South America Correspondent Ione Wells sent this report. The roads that connect these cities, these cities that hold peoples homes, some now entirely under water. Helicopters are the only way to reach some people who need help. This woman had a stroke, but ambulances would not be able to get her to hospital in time. She lives near a lake that has flooded the surrounding roads. Even by helicopter, we arrive hours later than needed after a stroke. These rescues are not without their risks. As we fly back, the weather turns bad. Visibility is poor. Rescue flights are called off for the day. The aim is to get people to safety. About 6,000 people are now living in this University Sports hall that has been converted into a shelter. People here are coming to terms with having lost everything. They dont know when they will be able to return home, if they will have a home to go back to, and some are fearful about going back to a place they worry could flood again. Albertina is here with her husband, sons and grandchildren, after being rescued from theirflooded home. Translation 50 helicopters passed by and none of them stopped. Then it started to rain. My son, who is here, he was at the window, shouting that his father was old and couldnt walk, and then a boat came and picked us up. I came with just the clothes on my body. I was very sad, really sad. I didnt even sleep five nights, but after i saw that, it seems like everyone is going to help us, so i think im not worrying any more. Im really not. Hope is what albertina holds on to hope of soon returning home. Looking down on herflooded city, that seems a distant prospect. Ione wells, bbc news in porto alegre, brazil.
