Hello, im kasia madera. We start in the Middle East, where israel says hezbollah fired over 150 missiles into the country in the latest excalation of Cross Border strikes between the two sides. In turn, israel has launched extensive airstrikes on targets in Southern Lebanon. Prime minister, Benjamin Netanyaju said his country had inflicted a series of heavy blows on hezbollah in Recent days, saying if they havent understood the message yet, they will. Residents in the Northern Israeli Port City of haifa, nearly 30km from the border with lebanon, have been told to restrict gatherings and stay near shelters, after it and a nearby airbase were targeted by hezollah rockets. And Lebanons Health Ministry now says 45 people, including women and children, were killed in fridays israeli attack on beirut. From jerusalem, Paul Adams reports. Northern israel under attack this morning. Houses hit far from the lebanese border. Hezbollah are seeking revenge after days of devastating setbacks. Israels Air Defences in action over the northern city of haifa. Hezbollah rockets now reaching deeper than ever into israel. Evidence across the north that the iranian backed group is using longer range weapons. Haifas main hospital has been preparing for this for weeks, the injured brought to its converted underground car park. Israels relentless assault on hezbollah goes on. Jets attacking targets across Southern Lebanon overnight. Israel says it is hitting the militant groups infrastructure, especially its rocket launchers, trying to keep hezbollah on the back foot. Translation in the last few days we inflicted on hezbollah a sequence of blows that it did not imagine. If hezbollah has not understood the message, i promise you it will understand the message. Where all of this is heading is not clear. There have been several other moments of high tension over the past 12 months. But Israels War on hezbollah has stepped up several gears in the past week. Now the group is trying to prove it remains a formidable enemy. None of this bodes well for Southern Lebanon, caught in a battle between deadly enemies. It has already paid a heavy price and seems destined to suffer more. Scenes like these from Northern Israel are likely to trigger further action. For now, the two sides locked in a dangerous spiral. Paul adams, bbc news, jerusalem. Lets speak to our corresopndents, Hugo Bachega In Beirut, and daniel de simone injerusalem. Daniel, people sheltering in northern isreal. Bring us up to date. There was significant fire, overnight and into this morning. There was a smaller number of missiles fired into israel from iraq by an islamic, and am back group. Schools have been closed until at least tomorrow night, hospitals have been told they can operate insecure areas one hospital has been transferring patients to an underground car park. Beaches have been caught were closed and people have been told they need to be near secure shelters at all time, being near bomb shelters. Some of the missiles that came in overnight from hezbollah has been described as the Israeli Military is going further and deeper than seen before during this almost year long conflict with hezbollah, that means farther south. We have seen missiles around haifa in Northern Israel, we saw some houses damaged, some people have been injured and hezbollah said it was targeting an airbase and a Defence Company in the north of the area. What this shows is that hezbollah, despite of all of their targeting this week, and the ways that never imagined to be targeted such as the Pager And Walkie talkie explosions, despite all that it is still capable of striking israel. Earlier this week the israeli government set a goal, 60,000 people who have been displaced by the Rocket Fire over the last year. At the moment that has not been achieved because hezbollah are still firing rockets, people are still displaced and if anything people are even more disrupted at the moment by what is happening. I think that leaves the question about what will happen next, what further steps might israel take. The leadership of said they will not stop these military actions until they achieve their goal. Hezbollah says it will not stop firing until there is a ceasefire in gaza and in the occupied west bank. Ceasefire in gaza and in the occupied west bank. Lets go to hu. O in occupied west bank. Lets go to hugo In Beirut. Occupied west bank. Lets go to hugo In Beirut. As occupied west bank. Lets go to hugo In Beirut. As Daniel Hugo In Beirut. As daniel the same, israel continues that targeting of hezbollah infrastructure but they can still reciprocate, israel continuing with those Air Strikes into Southern Lebanon. Yes. The Israeli Military will say these yes. The Israeli Military will say these continued attacks will intensify. This fear here in lebanon is that we could see the beginning of a wide arc is against the beginning of a wide arc is against hezbollah. As Will A Lower against hezbollah. As will a Lower End remains defiant, they say these Lower End remains defiant, they say these attacks will continue unless say these attacks will continue unless there is ceasefire and all Recent unless there is ceasefire and all Recent efforts for a ceasefire for gaza have failed. There ceasefire for gaza have failed. There was ceasefire for gaza have failed. There was the main hope to de escalate here. It lasted the last de escalate here. It lasted the last few days have any humiliating four hezbollah, they humiliating four hezbollah, they have faced a number of setbacks, those explosions targeting pagers and walking take care, an indication that israel take care, an indication that israel has take care, an indication that israel has infiltrated the Groups Communication Science system Groups Communication Science system. Walkie talkies. Also system. Walkie talkies. Also the system. Walkie talkies. Also the attack on friday in beryl also the attack on friday in beryl that decimated the Command Chain of hezbollahs mean Command Chain of hezbollahs mean fighting unit, an Air Strike mean fighting unit, an Air Strike that hit a residential building here In Beirut. Beirut building here In Beirut. Beirut i building here In Beirut. Beirut. Iwas building here In Beirut. Beirut. I was talking to some hezbollah supporters and they remain hezbollah supporters and they remain defiant. They say these israeli remain defiant. They say these israeli attacks will not affect their israeli attacks will not affect their positions, they will continue to resist. I think this continue to resist. I think this shows you the feeling among this shows you the feeling among some hezbollah supporters. Obviously across the country, the view here and the country, the view here and the fear the country, the view here and the fear is the country, the view here and the fear is that hezbollah is dragging lebanon into a conflict with israel which is not conflict with israel which is hot in conflict with israel which is not in the countrys interest, one not in the countrys interest, one that not in the countrys interest, one that could be devastating for this one that could be devastating for this country which has suffered over the years. Hugo, thank you suffered over the years. Hugo, thank you very suffered over the years. Hugo, thank you very much. Suffered over the years. Hugo, l thank you very much. Appreciate you both updating as. A lot to digests and discussed. Lets speak to general khaled hamade, a former army general in the Lebanese Army who now works at the Saintjoseph University In Beirut. We were hearing from our correspondence on the ground In Beirut and jerusalem. We hear there is concern amongst lebanese people that hezbollah is dragging lebanon into this war with israel, is that what we are seeing . War with israel, is that what we are seeing . We L War with israel, is that what i we are seeing . We are we are seeing . Hello. We are ust we are seeing . Hello. We are just trying we are seeing . Hello. We are just trying to we are seeing . Hello. We are just trying to establish we are seeing . Hello. We are| just trying to establish comms with you, general. I hope you can hear me. Excellent. We were listening to communications from the latest from our correspondence on the ground In Beirut. He says there is concern amongst the lebanese people that hezbollah is dragging the country into a war with israel, is that what is happening here . With israel, is that what is happening here . Yes. Nowl think the happening here . Yes. Nowl think the military happening here . Yes. Nowl think the military escalation | think the military escalation is now beyond what this. We are in a very critical situation that i think the Recent escalation of this operation. Whether along the southern border or deep strikes inside lebanon or occupied territories, following the arming of hezbollah, things have reached a critical point. The situation now appears to have passed the point of no return. I think that diplomacy is no longer a viable option now. What austen and arab diplomatic groups were hoping had warned about is now a reality. Mike weston. We entering a Council Might Consultation that could extend over the coming weeks and coming months. Focusing on that dimension and believing that stability can be restored to lebanon, through a ceasefire is really unrealistic. The border as part of our wider region landscape. This situation is tied to the Strategy Concerns of the United States, particularly its long Standing Commitment to security and to reassert control over the Middle East. The key issues include the security of waterways, Oil And Gas reserves and counter in china economic expansion in the region. These are geopolitical little factors. These determine the ceasefire. It will not be enough to resolve it. I ceasefire. It will not be enough to resolve it. I wonder if ou enough to resolve it. I wonder if you are enough to resolve it. I wonder if you are saying enough to resolve it. I wonder if you are saying that if you are saying that Diplomacy Isnt working, then what are the next steps . Are there no way to hold back hezbollah commented de escalate what we are seeing right now . Help us to understand that relationship between hezbollah and the lebanese armed forces. Of course everybody knows the of course everybody knows the political situation in lebanon and they know who is organising the situation. We did not have enough spaces to be implemented and i think this strategic relationship with iran in the United States. The United States, they did not put enough pressure on iran to push hezbollah to implement the resolution. Because we know and we are sure that there are many government interests between iran and washington. Tehran was one of the us agents who. In the regional stability, this was a job assumed to tiran by the United States. Everybody knows that this extension, or expansion of the Orang And Influence in the Middle East especially in lebanon, had on this occasion to fulfil, to expand in the region due to the american except since andy and american except since andy and american admission. So the implementation of the resolution is due to the circumstances and due to their duties and thejobs circumstances and due to their duties and the jobs given to iran by the United States. Maybe now the United States want to change the strategy in the Middle East and they want to control all over the Middle East, on the economy, on the waterways and even they want to stop as i said, the chinese economic influence coming to the country. Maybe there are many lessons learned from the Gaza War and maybe now the United States, they wont believe in iran and in the Military Missions back to iran, to take part of the stability in the region. I think we are in the region. I think we are ina in the region. I think we are in a very critical circumstance and phase. The united change, if they are going to change the game and make Middle East, i think it will be, you know, will be under the interest of lebanon, of syria and maybe. Are completely complicated situation. Former general, thank you for your insight. We really appreciate that. We have much more on our website as well on this story.

The Foreign Secretary will be this Afternoons Speaker as the government hopes to switch their conversation now it is their conversation now it is the party of government. That speech will be shown here life in the next 30 minutes. Stay with as for that. The Crown Prosecution Service says it twice considered bringing charges against the former Harrods Owner mohammed Al Fayed, but on both occasions, it concluded there was no realistic prospect of a conviction. All of this has come to light since a Bbc Documentary this week led to dozens of women coming forward with allegations of being sexually assaulted or raped by the billionaire, who died last year. With me is ben king. Ben what more do we know . We have learned today that in 2008 the metropolitan police investigated the case of a 15 year old girl who said she was sexually assaulted by Al Fayed. That case was passed to the Crown Prosecution Service but they took no further action. They say that was because they had no realistic prospect of a conviction based on the evidence that they had at the time. There was a similar case that made it to the cps but no further in 2015 and three subsequent cases that did not make it as far as the cps. Contrast that with their 20 or more women who have been in touc
