Us president Joe Biden has told israels Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, that he expects israel to significantly de escalate its Military Campaign in gaza. The us, a long Standing Ally of israel has so far opposed a joint statement by the un Security Council on the conflict. Israel though fired more missiles into gaza on wednesday and Mr Netanyahu says hes determined to carry on. He also hit back at criticisms that israeli Missile Strikes have killed dozens of ordinary palestinians, including women and children. We try to target those who target us with great precision. That is not. As surgical an operation it is, even in the surgical room in a hospital, you dont have the ability to prevent Collateral Damage around the infected tissues. Even then, you cant. And certainly in a military operation, you cannot. But there is no army in the world that does more than the israeli army, than the israeli security services, the israeli intelligence, to prevent Collateral Damage. To have israel

The Green List currently includes 12 countries and overseas territories. Portugal is on that Green List and has seen a surge in bookings. 0ur Transport Correspondent Caroline Davies sent this report from the algarve. Were going to portugal we are not all going on a summer holiday, but, from today, going abroad for one is no longer illegal. This, after a long time of empty arrivals halls, will be a sight for sore eyes for many in the travel industry. It is a change of environment. We have been stuck at home for literally two years, so, just getting out and doing something different, being in a different culture, getting some sunshine, relaxing. International travel has returned, but with only 12 countries on the Green List, the destinations are limited, but the Paperwork And Cost is not. Portugal requires a P

Individual light particles. Ill explain why thats important in a second, but first, heres how they do it. On this disc here, you cant see it, is a crystal that is one atom thick and its got little defects on it the size of an atom, and when you fire a laser at those defects, they ping out individual out individual photons, individual particles of light, and you can actually see them here. These bright yellow areas are the defects where the photons are coming out. This is where it gets weird. By singling out photons, you can unlock whats known as the Quantum World, where very, very small things behave very differently. Youll need to pay attention to this bit. So, there are two main properties that we can harness. The first one is superposition and the second one is entanglement. Superposition is a particle being in two states at the same time, so being up and down at the same time. Entanglement is two particles being inextricably linked, so no matter where they are in the universe, what
