Israels Ground Invasion of evacuated. Israels Ground Invasion of lebanon evacuated. Israels Ground Invasion of lebanon is invasion of lebanon is triggering a response for the Body Year after the hamas attacks many here see war as the solution to this border conflict. An invasion as the best defence. Terror which has been followed by an indiscriminate war. It brings back the most painful memories of a day of horror in his field where people were, like you just heard, getting killed in a senseless, horrific way. Sheer terror. Against civilians. That indiscriminate attack has been followed by an indiscriminate Military Campaign and gaza, which is very small area, where Two Million people are crammed together, with no escape. And, with a bombardment that has killed thousands of children, thousands of children, more Aid Workers than in any other war anywhere on the planet, and so on. And an indiscriminate day of terror was followed by an indiscriminate war and the war seems to be incapable of stopping this bloodbath. Hezbollah and hamas, yes, they do blend into the civilian population. I dont know if they use them as Human Shields but they are there in the population. But that does in no wayjustify population. But that does in no way justify smashing a population. But that does in no wayjustify smashing a school full of women and children if there are some hamas fighters somewhere in the Facility Or Right under the school. It is still a War Crime. Its a War Crime to blend into the population in a War Crime to smash the school with everybody there for them is a fundamental point and its been so misconstrued now for a year. It was an indiscriminate warfare with indiscriminate bombs. 2000 palm bombs provided by the united States. £2000 bombs. Part of mexico are bracing themselves for a potentially deadly hurricane.

It currently has winds gusting in excess of Two Hundred And Sixty kilometres per hour thats more than 160 miles per hour and is expected to pass near mexicos Yucatan Peninsula in the coming hours. It is then predicted to move towards florida which is still struggling to come to terms with the damage brought by hurricane helene. Some residents are having to evacuate again. The situation is what was it, just a little over a week ago . We had a pretty severe Storm Surge, hurricane the highest Storm Surge in this area in recorded history. Now were looking at one that could potentially depending upon the whims of Whichever Direction the storm takes is going to be either worse for that is probably likely can be the same case which was three two six feet of Storm Surge for the worst case could be ten to 12. Might become a hurricane, yesterday probably by today it became a hurricane quickly. Not only is it a hurricane its a major hurricane for the all these Barrier Islands all these areas that would be susceptible to the Storm Surge that is up and down the West Coast of florida, you should assume that there is going to be some form of evacuations that are going to be issued by your local county officials. That is going to happen when you have the potential for a Storm Surge at this magnitude. Since Govorner Desantis spoke, the hurricane has been upgraded again to a category five by the national Hurricane Centre lets speak to jennifer collins, a Professor And Hurricane researcher at the university of South Florida.

The impact could be immense particularly those who have already suffered through helene, who have had severe flooding. The ground is already saturated. We have debris out from helene as people cleared their houses of their furniture and possessions now on the street. Those could be projectiles. It really depends on where this hits. Theres a bit of uncertainty with that. A good 100 Mile Stretch of where it could hit. That will really affect with the impacts are going to make worse. ,. , , worse.

We forecasted that this was going to be close together. We forecasted that this was going to be an i that this was going to be an active Hurricane Season. We did have a low inactivity for a few weeks for them that had people wondering if it was really going to be as active as a forecast said. Weve recently had helene impacts the West Coast of florida and six other States had major impacts. This isnt the only storm, if we look historically by students actually did some work a few years ago on the 18118 storm with data, from South Carolina to historical record showing that the storm also hit Tampa Bay probably as a category three or four. Whats interesting is that it had a very similar track going from the west to the east, a very similar to this one. Similar to this one. Were seeinr similar to this one. Were seeing peeple similar to this one. Were seeing people using similar to this one. Were seeing people using sandbags, to evacuate to make sure their cars are filled, lines of cars waiting at Petrol Station so people can get out. With this sort of extreme weather that were seeing, realistically, its very difficult to know what people can do to check themselves and their property. It is very difficult. The thing about a hurricane is, we do have these warnings. Hopefully people are heeding the warning, evacuating if they need to get out particularly if they are in a surge region. You should not be staying around for them even if youre not in a surge reaching protecting your house from other flooding reaching protecting your house from otherflooding potential inland flooding, the high winds, putting up storm shutters, theres a lot we can do to prepare, making sure our charge is backed up, were flashlights at the ready. So much we need to do Today And Tomorrow to prepare. Tomorrow to prepare. Jennifer collins, thank tomorrow to prepare. Jennifer collins, thank you tomorrow to prepare.

This is the World Today on bbc news. The Defence Secretaryjohn Healey has said sue gray, who quit as sir Keir Starmer� s Chief Of Staff on sunday had played a massive role in preparing the party for power but had become a distraction. Ms Grays Resignation followed what she called intense commentary about my position. In recent weeks the government has been beset by rows over her salary and freebies given to Cabinet Ministers and mps. Lets speak to sir Keir Starmer� s former Chief Of Staff, sam white. Thank you for being with us obviously, the government will want this to be a Reset Moment with a budget coming at The End of the month and the Investment Summit coming in a week. Do you thinkjust changing the personnel is really going to provide them with a fresh start after whats been a pretty unusually difficult few weeks for a new government . I think it is very for a new government . I think it is very sad for a new government . I think it is very sad for for a new government . I think it is very sad for sue for a new government . I think it is very sad for Sue Graham | it is very sad for sue Graham Particularfor it is very sad for Sue Graham particular for leaving. She it is very sad for sue Graham Particularfor leaving. She is clearly a public servant is given her whole career to british do function a little bit better. This is a difficult experience i would imagine to go through. I speak from some experience. I do think theres a moment when Keir Starmer as leader, as Prime Minister has to take decisions about structuring his operation and putting in the personnel he needs to get in the right places. I think the culture was becoming unsustainable. At the Getti Culture and let the level of briefing we seen taking places along to go on unpunished. And becomes the norm is a culture that is going to be fairly dysfunctional, is going to erode trust, make getting things done much harder culture is one of the words you hear about earlier in your careerfrom senior hear about earlier in your career from senior paper, thinking, what are they blathering on about . Theres a moment when you realise actually, culture is everything. Culture is how i get stuff done, how i get it done fast, how i get it done well with high performance and high levels of dross. Reestablishing that culture in number ten is to determine whether this is a real Reset Moment. Im hoping Keir Starmer grabs that makes it happen. People have said that the downing street operation, number ten if that doesnt work properly Government Cant Work properly. Leadership comes from the top. It is her Keir Starmer really exerting the right level of leadership here to lead his team . Is he being too loyal to people he had with him in opposition . Does he need a higher calibre of staff, a bigger beefed number ten . What bigger beefed number ten . What were seeing bigger beefed number ten . What were seeing is bigger beefed number ten . What were seeing is keir bigger beefed number ten . Wrist were seeing is keir being decisive in making changes. He is capable and ruthless. That is capable and ruthless. That is a necessary quality in a Prime Minister in my view. He marries that to care a lot about people. He does have a lot of loyalty to people whove work for him in the past. Ed will protect and care deeply, he wont of enjoyed the experience of the last few weeks where the operation has turned in on itself. In terms of what do you do overall, number ten is a very difficult place to work. It is not a building conducive to working well in itself atop the challenges of modern government are incredible. The pace it comes out for the not forget, this is the worst Inheritance Government has had certainly in my lif
