Left on foot or in a vehicle. But many are determined to stay. Our Correspondent Reports from just a kilometre over the boundary with gaza. Its been over one week since hamas launched its unprecedented attack on israel. Some of the perpetrators are still just hundreds of metres away. Israels wave of air strikes has been the deadliest on gaza. And now they are prepared for a ground attack. It is hard even to imagine what were witnessing in gaza. This is the north where a Ground Invasion is expected to begin. Thousands left their homes in this area and gaza city to the south. A large number of the population still refused to leave. More than 2700 people in gaza have been killed. And whole neighbourhoods reduced to rubble. Thousands have fled after telling civilians to leave to the north. But many say they cant or wont leave. This man is one of them trying to squeeze the last drops from the cities water system that has been cut off for days. Translation we will not leave even if they destroy our homes over our heads. There is no we to leave. Where are we going to go with a family of five or six . Children still play when they can. Taking advantage of a short moment of calm. Its their only release during days filled with death and violence. Multiple families here are now crowded under one roof. Many relocated after their homes have been destroyed. For many, moving south is not an option. Translation even the road is not safe. 70 people were killed in an air strike without any warning. All these strikes are happening without warning, even if we do go there with 50 members of my families from five or six families, where are we going to get food or waterfrom . We would carryjust our clothes. The Israeli Army Says it is asked civilians to move with hamas using them for Human Shields Which Hamas denies. What will happen to the Tens Of Thousands who have decided not to . Lots of developments on this trail the time that, as you will know. We have just read the United Nations chief say that he will travel to egypt on tuesday for a mission to last several days, he says and also plans to visit israel. That is the un office for the coronation of humanitarian affairs today. I ran� s Foreign Minister has warned that the possibility of the war between israel and hamas spreading to other friends is approaching the unavoidable stage. This was a statement on twitter, he said that time is running out for Political Solutions and accused israel of crimes and murder in gaza. 0ur correspondent, james langdale, has more on this.

Put it into context. Is recently as we have screened and increasing rhetoric from iran which is the latest version of iran essentially warning israel that if it launches a Ground Incursion into gaza, there will be consequences. So in recent days, we have had braces from irans Foreign Minister and other spokespeople saying, look, from irans Foreign Minister and otherspokespeople saying, look, if israel goes in, no one can guarantee what is going to happen or if israel goes in, there is a risk of a huge earthquake. Now, this is the most explicit iran has been saying, look, if israel goes in, then we are reaching the stage of unavoidable spread to another friend. That is shorthand for hezbollah attacking from the north. And this is what nobody wants, to suddenly have two friends as opposed to one. Thats why the americans have stuck a whopping Aircraft Carrier in the east mediterranean to warren hezbollah, they are sending a second Aircraft Carrier group to the region, they are so worried. And thats why the americans are using average of the medic tool theyve to try to tell everybody, look, our aim is to deter iran. If you speak to iran, tell them this is our intention. Dont plan that flames yourself. Were doing every thing we can to avoid this thing spreading because thats nobody� s interest. In because thats nobodys interest. In simple terms, iran crucial to this because of the backing for hamas and hezbollah. Iran because of the backing for hamas and hezbollah. , ~ , hezbollah. Iran is the key player here. Hezbollah.

And what we are interested to hear is how much has the golf leaders, the arab leaders that he spoke until given him enough, sort of, you know, to give to the israelis and say, luck, the thing that could risk this is notjust aggression luck, the thing that could risk this is not just aggression from luck, the thing that could risk this is notjust aggression from iran, but also the nature, the manner of israels defence, the way it tries to destroy hamas in gaza. The nature of that conflict that is coming up and taking place now. It will have a Material Impact on how the rest of the beach and responds. In other words, do as possible to break International Law, hurt civilians, etc, because you dont want to give iran, fanned by other parts of the middle east, and even greater excuse to expand this conflict. In other words, the deterrence, that the escalation is notjust a message to iran, its also a message to israel saying, look, how you do this thing can be your legitimate destruction, Attempted Destruction of hamas, how you do that will shape how other players in the game do or do not get involved. find players in the game do or do not get involved. �. , ,. , involved.

Speaking in parliament, rishi sunak condemned the attacks in israel, and offered his support to both britainsjewish and muslim communities. Ican i can announce today that we are increasing are aided by a third with an additional £10 million of support. An acute humanitarian crisis is unfolding to which we must respond. We must support the Palestinian People because they are victims of hamas too. Like our allies, we believe that hamas does not represent the Palestinian People or their legitimate aspirations to live with equal measures of security, freedom, justice, opportunity and dignity. Hamas simply does not stand for the future that the palestinians want. And they seek to put the Palestinian People in harms way. So we must ensure humanitarian support urgently reaches civilians in gaza. This requires egypt and israel to allow in the aid that is so badly needed. Lets speak now to our Political Correspondent. Hello to you. It was very much the Prime Minister, rishi sunak and also kier starmer, that leader of the opposition speaking with one voice and one message. And one message. Thats right, its not something and one message. Thats right, its not something you and one message. Thats right, its not something you see and one message. Thats right, its not something you see very and one message. Thats right, its l not something you see very regularly at these Dispatch Boxes in parliament, but today, but the Prime Minister and, the labour leader, very much on the same page in their response. Both of them said that they believed israel had the right to defend itself, both strongly condemned the actions of hamas. In both reference that they believed that israel should make sure it is taking steps to minimise civilian casualties and is acting within the scope of International Law, both also reiterating the uks long standing Foreign Policy position, their calls for a two state solution, the creation of an independent Palestinian State in addition to an israeli state as well. Now, both leaders as well turn their thoughts to events in the uk as well, condemning a rise in anti semitic attacks, but also expressing their solidarity both for jewish communities in the uk and also muslim communities in the uk who may have been subjected to islamic Public Comments are attacks as well. The Labour Leaderfollowed the Prime Ministers speech and expressed his agreement with the Prime Ministers support for both communities. I do not want britain to be a place wherejewish schools are closed, jewish children stay at home out of fear and jewish families feel compelled to hide their identity. And i do not want britain to be a place where british muslims feel that they have to apologise for the actions of people who do not act in their name. We cannot allow Community Cohesion in our country to be destroyed. We all bear a responsibility to do all we can to stamp out hate. And we fully support police action, provide extra assistance for our communities. Ione, and peace also brought up the potential violation of International Law. V potential violation of International Law. , � ,. ,. , law. Thats right, the question of internationalize law. Thats right, the question of internationalize becoming law. Thats right, the Question Of Internationalize Becoming An internationalize becoming an increasingly politcised one here in the uk as well and there were different perspectives on is raised ljy different perspectives on is raised by different mps from across the House Of Commons. We had, for example, across pretty group of mps, the tory mp but also labour mps, richard and imran, as well as a green party mp, caroline lucas, all raising their concerns with the Prime Minister that while they condemned the actions of hamas, they argued that israel had been inflicting collective punishment on Palestinian People and questioned whether israels actions had been in line with International Law. Then you had from another perspective the Conservative Mp, michael ellis, asking the Prime Minister to agree with him that israel had followed International Law. So clearly this is an issue that is increasingly dividing mps here in the House Of Commons. I think what was notable is that the Prime Minister did not answer that question directly, nor did the Foreign Secretary when asked about this on the weekend. Many ministers are being incredibly careful what they say when asked whether or not they think israel has been complying with International Law in its response to the attacks ljy law in its response to the attacks by hamas. At the Prime Minister did say in response, again, something under the other ministers have acted as a reiteration of his position that israel has the right to defend itself, that the uk believes in the importance of International Law and that israel must take steps to reduce civilian casualties, but certainly i dont think this is a question that ministers are going to find goes away for them any time soon. I think they will be continue to ask this question both when asked in Media Interviews but also by fellow mps.

Breaking news, all data have been questions about whether the rafa crossing, the single crossing from egypt and gaza will be opened, and the United Nations havejust said that no progress on the full opening of the Rafah Crossing between egypt and gaza has been made. That has been quite an issue today, lots of International Statements asking for that to be open. At the un spokesperson saying no reopening of the Rafah Crossing. Now, in the United States of illinois, sarri, the us states of illinois, a man has been charged with murder and hate crimes after allegedly stabbing to death a six year old muslim boy and severely injuring his mother. The boys father identified the victims as palestinian americans. Police say 71 year old Joseph Choo Ba was the victims landlord, and that he targeted the victims because they were muslim. They allege he was motivated by the israel hamas war. In a statement sunday, President Biden expressed his condolences, saying this horrific act of hate has no place in america. Earlier i spoke to our washington correspondent, gary odonoghue. What we know about what happened is that on saturday at some point, allegedly, the landlord went to this apartment and when the mother opened the door, the allegation was that he attacked her, tried to throttle her that she ran off into a bathroom and when she emerged into a bedroom, the allegation is her son had been stabbed, and we are told multiple times, dozens of time in fact that he died and his mother was taken to the hospital where she is expected to survive. Now the police have arrested the 71 year old, he has been charged with first degree murder and attempted first degree murder, but also Thejustice Department here in washington are looking at Hate Crime Charges as well. He is expected to appear in court later on today an
