Hezbollah says they were shooting people. And hezbollah says it is prepared to enter the conflict when the time comes. We will speak to the Palestinian Red Crescent for more on the conditions on the ground. Hello, im matthew amroliwala, welcome to verified live, the United Nations has warned it will be impossible for around a million palestinians to leave Northern Gaza by midnight after israel told them to move for their own safety. The order comes ahead of an expected Israeli Ground offensive. The main un agency in the gaza strip called the order horrendous and warned that gaza was becoming a hell hole on the brink of collapse. The World Health Organization appealed to israel to immediately rescind the order, saying unimaginable Human Suffering is now unfolding. Israel has been dropping leaflets into Northern Gaza, telling people to leave. Hamas has dismissed the israeli order as psychological warfare. Israel has deployed tanks on gazas boundaries. In a Statement Released after a sixth night of air strikes, the Israeli Defence forces Accused Hamas of using civilians as human shields. Theres tension too on israels border with lebanon. After a meeting with irans foreign minister, the deputy head of the powerful Lebanese Militant Group hezbollah rejected calls to keep out of the conflict in gaza saying the group is fully prepared and ready to enter the war against israel, when the times comes. These when the times comes. Are the live pictures from gaza. These are the live pictures from gaza. We have seen rockets being fired out of the gaza strip through the course of today already but it is pretty quiet as those israeli air strikes continue intermittently. Let me show you pictures from ramallah in the west bank because It Disturbances their and you can see some of the live pictures coming into us and are still people there on the streets and we had those reports earlier that Israeli Forces had killed four palestinians. Those are just some of the latest pictures coming in to us. Lets bring you the very latest details on the ground. Some civilians are heading south from gaza city, already suffering a humanitarian disaster. They are on the move after the israeli army gave 1. 1 Million People 2a hours to flee their homes. Everything is threatened, says this woman. How long will this go on . There are no more houses. The whole area is destroyed, she said. With gaza under an israeli siege, the military� s message is all that is getting in, dropped by leaflet, telling civilians to move for their protection after it says hamas waged war on israel. The armed group is calling it psychological warfare, telling people not to heed it. Such a Mass Evacuation in 2a hours is impossible. It would cause chaos and aid groups say it could have devastating consequences. The forcible relocation of civilians like this, with a 24 hour notice, its Crystal Clear violations of international law. We have reports from our people on the ground that the panic, the chaos in an already traumatised population that is under bombardment like no other is limitless. The israeli bombardment continued into the morning. People wont flee for their own lives when there are still the lives of others to save. With many more dead and power to life saving facilities for the survivors running out. The wounded are still being brought into already packed hospitals which are dangerously low on generatorfuel and medicines. Israel has said it wont lift its block on supplies until its hostages are freed by hamas. And with daylight came more rocket fire from gaza into israel. And the relatives of israels dead and missing are still desperately seeking information. This womans grandfather was killed, her grandmother taken hostage. Like others, she now fears for their fate amid the intensifying fighting. The us defence secretary lloyd austin arrived vowing his full backing for israel, and he met the Israeli Defence minister. Our neighbours is hamas, the isis of gaza, an organisation enjoying the iranian payroll. I cannot let the world forget the brutal attacks Hamas Terrorists conduct against israeli children, israeli women, israeli elderly and entire families. Washington wants to stop this warfrom spreading, from engulfing the wider region, but israels attempts to push a million palestinians south in gaza also risks greater instability and that is because it puts them closer to the border with neighbouring egypt, and the egyptians have made it clear they wont accept refugees. There are many ways this crisis can now slip much further out of control, and the israeli tanks are still lining up on gazas perimeter. We are hearing from the Israeli Military saying Rocket Science have sounded again in tel aviv and surrounding cities. We will talk to our chief international correspondent. Lyse doucet whos in sderot. We will talk to her in the next few moments but before we do. Joining us now on the line is dima ghanim.

Let me bring you a line of Breaking News from our Security Correspondent who says that gulf arab sources are telling him Antony Blinken has met with the emir of qatar in a statement will be issued soon. Efforts are ongoing to arrange some sort of Prisoner Swap to release some of the guys are hostages but no breakthrough yet. Expect more details, but that meeting has been hard now with Antony Blinken and the emir of qatar, so we will keep an eye on that and if i correspondent can give us more details we will talk to him. Lets go live to the Director General at the Palestinian Red Crescent and hejoins Director General at the Palestinian Red Crescent and he joins us from ramallah. Thank you for your time. In terms of your reaction to this is really orderfor1. 1 in terms of your reaction to this is really order for 1. 1 million in terms of your reaction to this is really orderfor1. 1 Million People to move . It was a shock, beyond belief. We had frantic calls from our colleagues in gaza at 2am, 3m, not knowing what to do and how to act. We issued after that an appeal to World Leaders to really intervene and stop what we see as a humanitarian catastrophe unfolding. Before our own eyes. We have a hospital in gaza city and in this hospital in gaza city and in this hospital we have five cases in intensive care, we have a number of other patients and more so that we have people who sought refuge in the hospitals. We have Hundreds Of Refugees who are now sitting in the hospital, in the corridors, and they are seeking a safe place because there are no safe places in gaza. They do not know where to go. There are no safe corridors and they also are no safe corridors and they also are not sure if they move to another place whether that place will be bombed again as has happened so many times in the last couple of days. Tell me, in terms of your teams on the ground, any movement from them . Have they been Organising Movement for palestinians . What is the latest, because we are about halfway through this deadline if you look at the clock . It through this deadline if you look at the clock . ,. ,. ,. , the clock .

It is true, and i do not i see how in the next ten hours or so we can move 1 see how in the next ten hours or so we can move1 million or a little bit less because some people have left. We are not responsible for moving people, but we are responsible for providing emergency medical service. Responsible for providing emergency medicalservice. Our responsible for providing emergency medical service. Our people who are staying in the hospital, we cannot tell them to leave, to evacuate somewhere else, because as i said there is no place, other place to go to. And our ambulance services, we have relocated them because most of gaza now is really a no go zone, so we have relocated them around the area so they can be ready to help those injured and those people who need help. Just to mention that yesterday, i no longer note the days, but i think we lost four of our colleagues from the ambulance services. The fourth one was killed by a direct bullet, despite a coordination and we were given the green light to go ahead and attend to some injuries in the field. My sympathies for that. Just a very brief Final Question, how scared are you and your team in terms of what lies ahead for the next few days . The most difficult thing is for a manager, leader, whoever responsible to take a decision to tell people to stay or go. Some of our people have decided to stay, our medical teams, to attend to those cases in the hospital. Some have relocated to another hospital, but im getting calls, we are communicating with our colleagues by the minute and the question is do we say or do we go . How do we go and leave when we have people in our hospitals are seeking refuge and we have patients and obviously we do not have the capacity to me for these people . So this is the most dramatic, difficult we have ever been through. It is really a catastrophe that is unfolding before our own eyes. Thank ou for unfolding before our own eyes. Thank you for taking unfolding before our own eyes. Thank you for taking time unfolding before our own eyes. Thank you for taking time to unfolding before our own eyes. Thank you for taking time to speak unfolding before our own eyes. Thank you for taking time to speak to unfolding before our own eyes. Thank you for taking time to speak to us, thanks very much. Around the world and across the uk, you are watching bbc news. Lets look at some other stories making news. Hundreds of afghans who risked their lives to work with the uk in afghanistan and fled the taliban are now stuck in neighbouring pakistan as they wait to be relocated to the uk. Bbc news has learned some afghans are spending their lives living in fear with pakistani officials beginning a crackdown on migrants without visas. The man who poured glitter over sir keir starmer before his speech at the Labour Party Conference has apologised for making him feel unsafe. Yaz ashmawi admitted he had Crossed The Line when he made physical contact with sir keir but said he did not regret his protest or his use of glitter.

We have spent the entire dayj here and where we are now is less than a mile from the gaza border and you can see on the horizon where the smoke is rising, that is gaza city, thatis smoke is rising, that is gaza city, that is the area where israel has told more than a million palestinians to leave there and the rest of the Northern Gaza Strip within the next 24 hour is. From this position, there is the constant crack of israeli Artillery Firing into gaza, but earlier today, there was also a huge salvo of rockets fired from gaza into here. We had to run for cover more than once. Israels a Defence System went into action is, thunderous blast in the sky. The same in ashkelon earlier this morning when missiles targeted that city, the biggest southernmost city in the gaza strip and that hit densely packed residential areas as well. Hamas is firing more rockets, israelis are intensifying military preparations. This morning as we travelled through sderot, which is an iconic city in israel and the very bad reasons and every time there is an escalation in violence, there is an escalation in violence, there has been all too many of them over many decades, sderot bears the brunt because it is so close to gaza. Summit street in gaza, the Israeli Soldiers had flooded the streets, lots of mobile armed patrols, and we also saw lots of volunteers going to the front line going house to house urging people to leave and finding some residents saying im too old to go, im not well, i cannot travel, so they were giving food to the people who are stuck in their houses, and this is not even a week in with sadly the fears that the worst is yet to come for the people of southern israel, those who still remain and most of all philly people in gaza.

I think we just had to listen and look at what had to listen and look at what israel is doing now. First there has been a nonstop bombardment for the last six days. Israel every day announcing that they have struck hundreds of hamas targets, trying to destroy the infrastructure used by hamas, destroy their command centres, destroy their offices. They are also destroying some of the roots of hamas could use and now they are focusing on those underground tunnels that are so vital to Hamass Operation and that is part of the reason they have asked people to leave the Northern Gaza Strip if they want, if they want to destroy those tunnels, it will also need to smash the buildings above that. That is where it will be directly targeting civilians. Day by day we see it taking the steps it has to take before it takes even more risky moves to move troops into this densely populated area where it knows it will come under attack by hamas. They are waiting for israel to come in, so is islamichhad and possibly so will the Gaza Population as well. ~ possibly so will the Gaza Population as well. ,. ,. ,. , as well. Thank you.

Thank you. I just want to give you the latest from writers l give you the latest from writers talking about israeli shelling towards a town in Southern Lebanon. Here are some of the live pictures and you can see israeli shelling apparently striking an observation post. Separate informed sources telling the Reuters News Agency but very clearly the latest shelling as concerns continue about lebanon and hezbollah getting sucked into this wider conflict and disturbing comments made through the last hours from the leader of hezbollah. That is the scene there in Southern Lebanon. While we continue to watch those pictures, let me bring onto the programme a british palestinian barrister. Herfather the programme a british palestinian barrister. Her father went to gaza last thursday just before barrister. Her father went to Gaza Last Thursdayjust before the attacks started stop let me talk to her now about the position she finds herself in. Welcome to the programme. What was the last contact you had with your father . So programme. What was the last contact you had with your father . You had with your father . So we soke to you had with your father .

So we spoke to him yesterday and he l you had with your father . So we i spoke to him yesterday and he was you had with your father . So we spoke to him yesterday and he was in a un facility in the north of gaza. Actually, we asked him do you think there is going to be any more bombing . Are you safe . He said i have seen, looking around the neighbourhood i am in, i do not see what there is left to bomb. It has been levelled. At that time he was saying he thought the bombardment must have been ended because he said i cant comment the entire neighbourhood has been levelled. I cant, the entire neighbourhood has been levelled. When the neighbourhood was told to evacuate, my dad got that message and we know he has moved somewhere near the border to another facility, but because of the electricity situation, the internet is down and so my dad, like many others, cant make contact. So my dad, like many others, cant make contact so my dad, like many others, cant make contact. I make contact. How worried are you . I am extremely make contact. How worried are you .

I am extremely worried for him, to am extremely worried for him, to everybody in gaza. I think myself, other palestinians, feel like we are watching a televised genocide, ethnic cleansing, that is what it looks like to us. I dont think we can overemphasise the seriousness of what we are seeing here and i was horrified this morning to hear. Apologies, as you can see, the line just dropping out there. Perhaps we can try to re establish that, but you are looking at pictures from Southern Lebanon. Let me show you the various live pictures coming into the bbc. Lets start there because the picture absolutely underlining the picture other News Agencies are outlining. Shelling towards Southern Lebanon striking a lebanese observation post. Let me show you pictures from gaza as well, the skyline which looks relatively quiet at the moment, but of course, we have seen rockets going out from there and that deadline that runs out at midnight local time will stop thatis out at midnight local time will stop that is the skyline at the moment. Some pictures that have just come into us at the bbc, at this exclusive footage which gives you a glimpse of the scale of the destruction we are talking about on the ground. Sometimes from that skyline a shot you do not really get a feel of what it is like on the streets, but these pictures absolutely giving you just a glimpse of what people are actually living through. These are images from yesterday, people running through the streets and you can see a number of homes and this clip here, we know about injuries and civilian casualties, the number going up, nearly 1800 killed was the last estimate and this is the financial district in gaza city, what is left of the financial district. Entire neighbourhoods being destroyed. Youre watching bbc news. Hello there. Good afternoon. Plenty of rain around today, particularly across southern england and wales, along with still that milder air lingering on. Further north, colder air, but also some sunshine. And were all going to be coming into those chillier feeling conditions as we head through the weekend. So feeling a lot more like autumn. Temperatures dropping below the seasonal average this time. It will be windy, but there will be a lot of sunshine around as well. And this is the position of the Weather Front on friday. Its going to be pushing further southwards and eastwards as we head through the rest of the afternoon. That cold front sweeping away the milder air into this evening and overnight. Behind the Weather Front, theres quite a lot of sunshine around, but also some showers just streaming down on that north westerly wind. Its quite a brisk wind, certainly towards exposed coastal areas, and especially out towards the far north east of scotland and the northern isles. Quite windy conditions developing here later on. Still, that milder air lingers on towards the south and the east. A lot chillier, 10 to 1a degrees celsius for much of north west england, Northern Ireland and scotland. So some heavy downpours of rain through the evening rush hour for the south east. The rain clears away. Chillier overnight tonight with lots of clear skies around and temperatures dropping back to around three to seven degrees celsius. So noticeably colder into saturday morning. And then on saturday, with our Weather Fronts across europe, weve got the north westerly winds still, some gales in association with this area of low pressure out towards the north east of scotland. And of course, that colder feeling air streaming down from the north. So feeling very different, a lot more like autumn. There will be a lot of sunshine around, but do watch out for some showers that will blow through Northern Ireland, perhaps north west england and down through north west wales. Some of the showers could even turn out to be a bit wintry over the higher ground, perhaps, at times. Still strong winds for the northern isles, for aberdeenshire. Elsewhere, a brisk Nort Westerly and temperatures peaking between nine and 13 degrees celsius. So quite a drop there. On saturday night, again, plenty of clear skies. The winds will lighten a little and many of us could see a touch of ground frost as we head into sunday morning. So the coldest night of the autumn so far. On sunday, therell still be a lot of sunshine. Some showers across the far north of scotland. The winds will be lighter, so it wont feel quite so chilly. But temperatures lower, ten or 11 degrees. Bye bye
