we ll talk to her shortly but here s a clip of her film. it is around 28 degrees at the moment, and very humid. i ve been sweating quite a lot all morning. this is just one of three jobs this woman has to help feed her two children. there was also a third child who she lost six months into her pregnancy. translation: i would work the whole day in the heat. l my legs would swell. i felt thirsty all the time and out of breath. one day i was cutting the crops, i suddenly felt intense pain, and i started bleeding. i went to see the doctor and he told me my baby had died. most of us women who have miscarriages never find out why their babies died, but do you think that working out in the heat could have had anything to do with it? translation: i think so. i think standing in the heat for hours could have had an impact. with me now is bbc s global health correspondent, tulip mazumdar, and professorjane hirst, who is chair in global women s health at the george institute for g ....
earlier, i spoke to our middle east correspondent yolande knell. she told me about this meeting. we know what he is planning to talk to these arab leaders about, he says he wants an immediate increase in humanitarian aid going into gaza, he s going to talk to them about the ongoing ceasefire talks, we have the egyptians and the qataris among those present, they have both been serving as mediators in the indirect talks between israel and hamas, and there is also a continued mention of the need to come up with a post war vision for gaza that we are hearing from the americans on this trip, what they are referring to as the post war architecture, an architecture for lasting peace in the region. they say that they want to prevent hamas from coming back into power, from being able to carry out the kinds of attacks that triggered the war back on 7th october. also, they want to look at bringing back, it seems, the palestinian authority which was ousted from gaza by hamas some 1 ....

been injustice. we certainly gave him evidence of the injustices we had suffered. even women who were divorced and had their divorce settlements round about 2010, 2012, their divorce settlements were based on a state pension age of 60. so had thejudiciary at the on a state pension age of 60. so had the judiciary at the time known about state pension age changes, their divorce settlements would have been based on the actual state pension age, not what it had been historically? plenty of evidence there was significant injustice and it is good that the ombudsman has recognised that. i am really pleased that parliament has a chance to put it right. they are the people who represent us. the all party parliamentary group provided evidence to the ombudsman s inquiry and they have suggested that compensation should be at level six of the severity of injustice scale. that would mean each woman affected would have a minimum of £10,000. if that was 3.6 million, it would be a huge ....
