khan younis immediately. the hamas—run health ministry in gaza says more than 15,500 people have now been killed there since the start of the conflict between israel and hamas, which is considered a terrorist organisation by the uk government. this is the scene live outside al nasser hospital in khan younis an area that has been under frequent assault. the scenes both inside and ouside the hospital are traumatic. these pictures were shot today. children are among those being driven to the hospital carried inside by family and friends. for many, the journey to hospital was too late. a senior adviser to the israeli prime minister has insisted israel is doing all it can to minimise the number of civilian deaths in gaza, after the us defence secretary, lloyd austin, said israel had a moral responsiblity to minimise casualties not linked to hamas. our diplomatic correspondent paul adams has this report, and a warning it contains images some viewers may find distressing. in gaza's overcrowded south, children are once more in the frontline. israel says it's going to great lengths to avoid killing civilians, but khan younis, it says, is a hamas stronghold. the hospital is overwhelmed. further north in gaza city, civil defense workers try to evacuate civilians as battles raged nearby. for a week, these streets were silent. now the israeli army is closing in. injabalia, a generation in despair, losing parents and protection. "my dad was killed," he says. "i swear my dad was killed." people are fleeing, not for the first time trying to follow israel's instructions. not sure where to go. "we can't see any safe areas," says nabeel. this is his family's sixth move. "we go from place to place, but there's no safety anywhere." israel says its new maps showing specific blocks in danger of being attacked should make it easier for people to find safety. this is basically israel's policy. but for one british palestinian, there's only confusion. everyone is in a panic because they got a phone call this morning for block 49 and other blocks, they called a family in the area and told them you must leave. people are being pushed like pawns in someone's chessboard into places with no water, no sanitation, no food, no safety. this idea of safe zones is a very dangerous narrative. we see here a fighting tunnel of hamas. - israel says it continues to unearth evidence of hamas embedding itself in civilian areas here. here a tunnel close to a school. the battle for gaza now rages in the north and the south. it's tough, urban warfare full of risk and a determined enemy. in petah tikva this morning, the funeral of israeli staff sergeant ashar usama wounded during the ground invasion last month. "you fought bravely for the protection of the state," his girlfriend, says. "we salute you." and hamas is not done. more rockets fired at israel today. memories of last week's precious truce fading fast. paul adams, bbc news, jerusalem. for more, i spoke to paul adams injeursalem, and asked him about the warning system in place for civilians in gaza. well, that's right. this has been a problem throughout the past two months. israel believes and says that it is giving as much notice as it possibly can to the civilian population to leave certain areas where the fighting is most concentrated. and they believe that these new maps with this detailed grid numbered grid should help that process, because they are saying to people in certain numbered areas, these are the areas you have to leave. the trouble is, people don't know where they should leave to. and it is also the case that even though israel may be concentrating on one particular set of areas, they are also hitting targets elsewhere outside of those demarcated areas. anything that the israelis regard as a high value target, where hamas might have some of its infrastructure or where a hamas commander might be living, those places are also in danger of being hit. so people frankly do not know and this has been a problem for the last two months. they do not really know where they can go to get out of harm's way. and paul, we're hearing about the ground operations that have resumed. what more can you tell us about that? so we are beginning to see evidence of israeli forces moving in on the ground in the southern two thirds of the gaza strip. you'll recall that the fighting until a week, ten days ago was mostly concentrated in the north, in the northern third of the gaza strip in and around gaza city. well, now we're seeing reports of israeli tanks and troops moving in close to the city of khan yunis. this does suggest that they're beginning to launch some kind of operation to break up the southern gaza strip into certain manageable areas. it's early days. we don't quite know what the movement is. the israelis aren't saying anything about it, but it is evidence of a ground operation in the way in the south, on the way in the south, too. what do you think that means in terms of aid agencies trying to get their aid through? well, it's going to make life difficult. during the pause, the humanitarian pause, the truce that lasted for a week but ended on friday, the aid agencies were able to get quite a lot of aid in. we were looking at anywhere between 150 and 200 trucks a day, and that was starting to make a difference. it's been more problematic since friday. on friday and saturday, no aid was getting in. then we began to see a little bit and i think the reports that i saw earlier suggested that as many as 100 trucks had crossed today. we'd need to check those figures. but i think the agencies will argue that as fighting moves down closer to the rafah crossing in the south, it is going to be harder to get aid in and more importantly, once it's in, to get it to the places where people are sheltering. you heard unicef�*s james elder in paul adams�* report a few moments ago. we spoke to him in khan younis shortly after the announcement of the ground operation. the hospital is a war zone, multiple children when i was there coming in with head injuries, with terrible burns, with shrapnel from blasts that had occurred in the last i guess, i guess half an hour, people coming in who are clearly who'd been killed. ambulances, a degree of panic that i've not seen. and it's a hospital i've gone to regularly. and the children know me now and the famiies know me now. those same people now are grabbing my hands or grabbing my shirt and saying, please take us somewhere safe. where is safe ? they are unfortunately asking a question to which the only answer is there is nowhere safe. and that includes for them as they know that hospital. michael clarke is a former director general of the uk defence and security thinktank rusi. he gave us his assessment of the ground operation announcement. israel is going at jabaliya in the north, the jabalia refugee camp. it was always going to do that because they, the israelis always say, and i'm sure they're not wrong, that the jabaliya refugee camp was also a big headquarters area for hamas. they organized in the camp, they recruited in the camp. they seem to have facilities below it. so itjust as the al shifa hospital was a major israeli target in the north. jabalia was also the next one. when they when he finished in al shifa, they were always going to go to jabalia and that's what they're doing now in the south. what's interesting is that they look as if they started a ground offensive towards khan yunis. we weren't sure if they would do this, but if they do, they're obviously trying to get people to move west of khan yunis towards the coast, which is what they would like them to do. and the un agencies have said that we won't facilitate this, we won't help because all will all we will do. if you cram people into the to the western corner of the gaza strip, you'll have cholera. there's no hygiene there. there's not enough water. there aren't the facilities and so on. and so the israelis are now trying to move people around. as one of your correspondents said, almost like on a chessboard. and that's not likely to work very well. so as they move into khan younis, this will certainly get a lot more brutal as far as civilian casualties goes. and the and hamas, 20,000 of them now israelis is after are in with the civilian population. so they'll move in and of the civilian population as it moves. an interfaith peace vigilfor israel and gaza has been held in central london this evening. 0ur reporter meghan 0wen was there and reports from outside downing street. organisers together for humanity said that this vigil was one of the biggest mass events of its kind, and that's because it was focusing on the pain of both palestinians and israelis. now, we heard speeches from many faith leaders, including the archbishop of canterbury. he was stood on stage with rabbi david mason and imam munawar hussain, and he was saying, we are muslim, we are christian and we are jewish, but we are humans. he also said there was no place on our streets for islamophobia and anti—semitism, and he pushed the message of love and forgiveness. and that is very much the theme today, as well as building bridges. it was also for many people here to gather, to mourn those killed in the conflict on both sides and also to stand up against rising islamophobia and anti—semitism in the uk. now it's felt incredibly peaceful this afternoon and i think what's striking is that there were no placards. event organisers encouraged people not to bring them because they said that slogans won't change anything, but positive conversation will instead many in the background. now you might see a carrying a lights and everyone was encouraged to light those candles. during the speeches we heard from politicians of all parties. we heard, as i said, from faith leaders and bereaved family. but there was also songs and music as well. so i think very much the push today was for peace and for unity. snow, ice and plummeting temperatures are causing problems across large parts of the uk. heavy snow in cumbria caused havoc on the roads, leaving hundreds of drivers trapped in their cars and more than 2500 people without electricity. police declared a major incident and are still advising people to avoid the county. yellow weather warnings from the met office covering large areas of england, scotland and wales are in force until midday monday. northern parts of the uk are being told to brace for snow and ice, including the already struggling lake district. yunis mulla has this report. severe weather left a blanket of snow in some areas. as much as 30 centimetres fell. motorists were caught out and stranded. this is ambleside. kerry abandoned her trip home to kendal and slept at work. i stayed at my work because i've got like a flat upstairs or a few of us just stayed there for the night, which was also really helpful because a lot of us couldn't get home. the snow was just unprecedented. we didn't expect this amount of snow, so it'sjust been chaos. anthony harrison has lived here for 35 years and opened up his house to give a friend a bed for the night. a friend who rang me at lunchtime yesterday said he couldn't get home and said, "can i come round to your house for lunch?" so he came at 12:00 yesterday and he left at 10:00 this morning. he stayed with us last night and there were lots of people stuck and people putting people up and just doing what we can to help. few have witnessed these scenes in recent years. this was the m6. motorists were stuck for hours. drivers were told to leave their cars and go to an emergency refuge. it's difficult for everyone to get out. i got as far as elterwater, but i left the car elterwater and me and the dog we run into on both side at the parish centre in ambleside. and the dog we run into on both side. at the parish centre in ambleside there were more than 100 people, including children, lots of bedding. lots of the local people brought in food, clothes, shops, provided food and clothing as well. and the people are just so grateful to have someone out of the weather not sleeping in their cars. this was at brit's view on the a5 95 on his way to a family wedding. he was stuck for 19 hours without food or water or, he says, help from the emergency services. cumbria police declared this a

is in place until midnight on monday. separately, an amber health alert for cold weather is also in place. here, cumbria police have advised motorists not to travel within the county unless necessary. in staveley, some were making the most of the snow by enjoying a bit of skiing, but for many the cold weather has left its impact and will be felt for a number of days. yunis mulla, bbc news ambleside. at least four people have been killed and more than a0 injured in an explosion at a catholic mass in the southern philippines. the bomb attack took place at a university in the country's largest muslim city of marawi. the government in the philippines had staged a crackdown on islamist extremist groups in recent days. the islamic state group has claimed responsibility for the attack. simonjones reports. members of the congregation help carry the wounded to safety. the explosion took place in a university hall where people had gathered for sunday mass. you can see smoke in the air. these pictures from inside show chairs strewn across the floor by the force of the blast. the police say they have recovered fragments of a mortar bomb. many worshippers were taken to hospital in a state of shock. translation: we - attended mass at 7am. then during the first reading there was a sudden explosion. it was really sudden and everyone ran. when i looked behind me, people were lying on the floor. the president described the attack as senseless and heinous. he blamed what he called foreign terrorists. the authorities believe it may have been carried out in retaliation for the killing of 12 suspected members of an islamist militant group by the military on friday. the public is being urged to remain calm. our focus now in the face of this incident in marawi will be to not only address the security dimension, but also the wellness dimension of the community. the university where the attack took place has called in additional security staff. all classes have been suspended. the authorities have vowed to bring the perpetrators of what they're calling this ruthless act to justice. simon jones, bbc news. anti—terror police in france say the man suspected of killing one person and injuring two others in a knife and hammer attack in central paris had pledged himself to the islamic state group. social media video shows armed police approaching a suspect in paris. the french interior minister gerard darmanin said the attacker targeted tourists around quai de grenelle — which is close to the eiffel tower. the man who was killed was german. authorities in berlin described his death as an �*abominable crime�*. in the last hour the paris prosecutor gave this update. translation: our initial investigation _ translation: our initial investigation has - translation: our initial. investigation has concluded translation: our initial- investigation has concluded that translation: our initial— investigation has concluded that the attacker stopped his victim three times and forth with a hammer and told police officer he was wearing an explosive belt. the perpetrator had recorded a video before his action on saturday evening. in this clip in arabic language he pledged allegiance to the islamic state. the attacker was known from secret services as he was found guilty of terror related incidents back in 2016. he was closely monitored until april this year. at the end of the month in october his mother had signalled to the authorities saying she was worried for his son. our paris correspondent hugh schofield has more. it was here on this bridge that it happened last night at around 9:15 local timejust down there. the man, the attacker, used a knife to attack this german tourist, a male nurse, killed him. the attacker then crossed the bridge to the north side of the scene where he encountered two other victims, both men. he attacked them with a hammer. one of them was this a british citizen aged 66, who whose condition we understand is satisfactory now in hospital. at that point, the police were on the scene and the man was cornered. he was incapacitated with an electronic taser, and then he was brought into custody by police. and we now know who he was. he�*s a man who was known to the police because he has served time in jail for plotting a terrorist attack before. he�*s someone who�*s had psychiatric problems. he�*s a man who�*s french, but with iranian parents. and police will now be questioning him and his entourage to find out more about what motivated him for this. what we know is what he told police last night, which was that the immediate driver was seeing images of the suffering in in gaza. he said he could not stand to see muslims dying in such numbers under israeli bombardment. let�*s look at dubai now, and the latest from the united nations climate summit — cop28. sunday is the first time any climate summit has focussed on health. experts say global warming is already having a "profound effect" on global health. our correspondent carl nasman interviewed the former prime minister of australia, julia gillard, who has been advocating for a health focused day at the summit from the very beginning. she explained why. fund scientific research. and the research was clearly telling us that the climate crisis is a health crisis. climate change already means that infectious diseases are in new parts of the world, that the food system we rely on for nutrition is being degraded in many places, that the biological effects of exposure to extreme heat are manifest and impact on people�*s health. and that�*s what we know now. we�*re investing £100 million this year alone in research to give us more information for the future. so climate, health — these are twin crises. and we wanted a day at cop that brought them together to motivate action. already coming into today, we have the declaration on climate and health, some 123 countries signing on $450 million pledged. what�*s your reaction to that? it�*s a terrific start. i mean, it�*s wonderful to see the world coming together and mobilising and understanding the interconnections. 123 countries is fantastic, but we do need to build on this and to do more. and we are pointing out very clearly that the transition from fossil fuels is hugely important to human health, important because it mitigates climate change. and of course, fossil fuels cause air pollution, which we know kills around five million people every year. i was surprised to learn only 0.5% of climate funding currently goes to health. how do you think delegates here will go about trying to change that? get some concrete pledges beyond what we�*ve already seen, the a50 million? yeah. i mean, it really does feel sort of counterintuitive, doesn�*t it, when we all know that our health depends on the air we breathe, the water we we drink, the food we eat, and that all of these things are impacted by climate change. so, yes, it�*s been a long time coming, but we�*re finally here. and i do think it is a motivator for climate action. i mean, as individuals, we all know that there�*s nothing more important, really, than our health and the health of our families. we worry about that a lot. and so i don�*t think it�*s too big a leap to say to communities, well, if you�*re worried about your own health, you should be worried about climate change because it�*s going to matter for you and your community. and hopefully that makes more political space for action. we�*ve seen so many visible impacts this year, the hottest year on record, but there are also some impacts that are a little bit less visible when it comes to climate change, particularly on mental health, which were onlyjust now starting to discover, right? that�*s true. and we also invest in research on mental health. we do know that trauma has a mental health consequence. and in many parts of the world, climate change trauma, extreme weather events are now more and more routine. and so that has to add up and be an extra pressure on mental health. and we do think that when people have just got a sense of hopelessness about the future, i mean, i think all of us feel a frisson of anxiety. now that in some ways is a normal human emotion, but for some people, it can become very, very deep and very destabilising and very impactful on their mental health. i wanted to ask you briefly about the other hat you used to wear as the prime minister of australia. you took some fairly concrete climate action. how heartened have you been by what you�*ve seen already, those pledges coming in on the first three days of this conference? well, i�*m ultimately an optimist. what i saw in my own country was bipartisanship, then hyper—partisanship around climate change, lots of arguing, and we seem to be in a better place now. so i�*m hoping that the case for change now is so undeniable that we�*ll continue to see action build. drjane ruth aceng is the minister of health for uganda. she told the bbc she is pleased to see the summit focus on health. indeed. we are excited as health ministers after 27 years for us to have a health day to discuss climate change and moving forward. we are very optimistic that climate change in health will be a big issue in every cop. we in uganda have had a profound impact of climate change on the entire health system, with temperatures rising to about 1.3 degrees. the impact includes floods, landslides, mudslides. we have had health facilities washed away. vector borne diseases increasing. and of course, all the money that was borrowed to set up health facilities, we see it going down the drain. and therefore we are here with hope that even as we sit and discuss the aspects of climate change, there will be more money that is put into addressing the issues that we have so elaborately laid on the table. stay with us here on bbc news. hello there. we�*ve seen some changes to the weather today. across the south of the country, low pressure has been ushering in some slightly milder air, more cloud outbreaks of rain. it�*s the north of the country which is seeing the cold, dry, sunnier weather today. but this new upcoming week starts off on a cold note. then we start to see it turning more unsettled — wet, windy weather moving in off the atlantic. that will usher in milder for all areas by the end of the week. now it�*s the first of a series of low pressure systems continue to push northwards into england and wales. in fact, the rain�*s going to pep up, turn heavier through the evening and overnight period. as it bumps into the colder air lying across the north of the country, likely see some snow of the welsh hills, the peak district, the pennines, maybe even down to lower levels for a time. we�*ll also see wintry showers feeding into eastern scotland, but western scotland, northern ireland will see the clearer skies. so here the lowest, the temperatures less cold. further south, southern england should have a frost—free night. but to monday morning it could be a bit tricky across northern england, the north midlands and north wales, could see some wet snow on the hills, maybe the odd flake down to lower levels for a time, but it�*ll be mostly of rain. but as the band of rain continues to move north, it�*s likely to see that risk of sleet and snow transferring to the north pennines. frequent wintry showers pushing into northern and eastern scotland could give some significant accumulations there. best of the brightness western scotland, northern ireland but to central southern parts of britain will stay rather cloudy, quite breezy with rain on and off. now, despite temperatures being a little bit higher across the board, you factor in the wind tomorrow, it�*s going to feel quite cold and raw. now that area of low pressure starts to pull out towards the near continent. so during monday night into tuesday, it�*ll take a while, but it means that the eastern side of england will bear the brunt of the edge of the low, bringing fairly brisk north, north—easterly winds, further wintry showers here, and there�*ll be further wintry showers, northern and eastern scotland. but elsewhere, with a ridge of high pressure building in increasing amounts of sunshine out west. so an improving afternoon for many. but again, it�*s going to be quite a cold day. temperatures 2—7 degrees — cooler than that further east when you factor in the breeze. so wednesday looks like it�*ll be a fine day for most. another cold one to come. then thursday, friday, it turns wetter and windier, but you�*ll notice the milder air reaches pretty much all areas. so we start the upcoming week off on a cold note, a bit of sunshine around before it turns more unsettled by the end of the week and turning milderfor all. stay with us here on bbc news. this is bbc news, the headlines israel says its forces are fighting �*strongly�* in southern gaza after a truce with hamas fell apart on friday. air strikes have been taking place in khan younis, and in rafah, near the crossing into egypt. un agencies have expressed concern that israel�*s military campaign is pushing civilians into an increasingly narrow corner of the territory. one person is killed and two injured in a knife and hammer attack in central paris near the eiffel tower. anti—terror police says the suspect had pledged himself to the islamic state group. it�*s emerged that the head of the un climate conference recently cast doubt on the world�*s ability to phase out fossil fuels without, as he put it, going back to living in caves. sultan al—jaber made the remarks at an online event ahead of the cop 28 climate summit. let s get some of the day s other news now gordon brown has described his former
