Before we moved to sport, the latest developments. We have had a statement from the un Secretary General, a new statement from Antonio Guterres. He said the humanitarian system in gaza is facing total collapse come up with unimaginable consequences for more than 2 million civilians. These are some of the live pictures from gaza. The skyline, and we have seen in the last a0 minutes or so intense bombardment and strikes continuing in gaza. I will keep these pictures on the screen as i take you through some of the statements from Antonio Guterres because he says, as the bombing intensifies, needs are growing evermore critical and colossal. About 500 trucks a day were crossing into gaza before hostilities began. In recent days, an average of only 12 trucks a day have entered despite the needs being far greater than at any time before. Given the desperate and dramatic situation, he says the un will not be able to continue to deliver inside gaza that without an immediate and fundamental shift in how aid is going in. We must meet the expectations and core needs of civilians in gaza, he said. Life saving humanitarian aid, food, water, medicines, fuel must be allowed to reach all civilians swiftly, safely and at scale. So a statement from the un Secretary General saying that without a fundamental change, the people of gaza will face an unprecedented avalanche of human suffering. That is the line that ends his statement. This is a moment of truth, he says. History is judging us all. So strong words from the un Secretary Generaljust the un Secretary General just released the un Secretary Generaljust released on the humanitarian situation on the ground in gaza. As the Un General Assembly continues to meet to look at the latest resolution. More on all of that in a moment. Lets pause for a moment to head to the bbc sports centre. Good evening. Good evening, thank you very much. In the nations league, wales are taking on germany after losing their opening matches. The germans took the lead on this one, but wales have equalised. Carrie holland scoring just before half time. They are still going at the moment, they are in injury time, and it will be quite a coup if wales get anything from this match in germany. They play denmark on tuesday. We brought you the news that Sandro Tonali has been banned by the Italian Football Federation due to betting rules. His boss eddie house as there is a high chance he will play against wolves tomorrow because the ban has not been approved by governing bodies uefa and fever. And fifa. Weve had the news, speculation statement, but we havent had anything from the italian authorities at the moment. So were sort of in limbo, really, waiting for that official confirmation to come through. Yeah, i think thereis a high chance again that he could be available for us. I still think there are a few things that have to happen before the ban is imposed, so lets see. Tottenham have the chance to go five points clear at the top of the Premier League with a win over crystal palace, its a special one for palace boss roy hodgson, who will be celebrating his 500th match in charge of an english club. Hodgson, who is 76 years old, has had a career thats spanned more than a5 years, and includes stints at blackburn, fulham and liverpool, as well as west brom and palace, twice. And england, of course. Ange postecoglou was asked if hell still be managing at that age. Who knows . Thats not the plan. 76 somewhere on a greek island, lying back, watching football from around the world, maybe doing some punditry and becoming an expert overnight. So thats the plan, but you never know in life, mate. The final of the Rugby Union World cup is tomorrow between south africa and new zealand, while the bronze medal match between england and argentina takes place later. Both teams face off in a repeat of their Group Stage Match and will be looking to finish their tournaments on a positive. England lock maro itoje says the Motivation Levels in the camp are still high, ahead of the clash in paris. Were competing for third place at this world cup, so theres loads to be motivated and about. I guess from their point of view, we beat them earlier, theyll probably want to turn that around. But its going to be a great contest. Its two top teams going at it, two good teams, two high quality teams, two teams coming off the back of a loss, wanting to get it right. At the cricket world cup, south africa can go top of the table if they beat pakistan. Well, pakistan elected to bat, but they didnt get off to a great start, losing two early wickets. Captain babar azam was pakistans top scorer. Aidan mark steadied things, making 91 before he was caught. The latest score is south africa have 256 8. They need 15 runs from about a0 balls, so you would think they would do this, but it is a little bit tense. If pakistan lose this, it will be their fourth defeat of the world cup and south africa would go top off the table. More on all of that on our website, but that is it for me, back to you. Thanks very much. Breaking news coming in in the last 20 seconds from the idf. They are saying they are launching intense and unprecedented attacks on all parts of the gaza strip. We have been showing you pictures from gaza in the last half an hour with an intense bombardment. So the two things these are the recent pictures, absolutely fitting together. That explanation coming to us from the idf that they are launching and have launched intense and unprecedented attacks on all parts of the gaza strip. But separately. But separately, let me also tell you the hamas spokesman saying that internet and communications have been cut across gaza and that would suggest also, it fits into what we are hearing. These are pictures from the last little while. They absolutely showed the intensity of the attacks as we just play some of those explosions again. But very large explosions in gaza. As the israelis continue their operations. We have seen over recent nights those Ground Incursions from the idf. The preparatory moves. But this sounds like a significant new development, that Breaking Development, that Breaking Development that the idf have launched intense and unprecedented attacks on all parts of the gaza strip. Now, that doesnt mean it is the start of the Ground Invasion because tactically, there are so many options for the Israeli Military in terms of what to do before they go in, if they go in. We know of course over the last two weeks, they have got their reservists in place, they have got their hardware in place. But of course, they arejuggling their hardware in place. But of course, they are juggling so their hardware in place. But of course, they arejuggling so many different issues, the Hostage Issue is one of them in terms of the basic tactics. And so far, the bulk of the tactics. And so far, the bulk of the tactics have been from aerial bombardments, just targeting what they say are hamas positions. We know of course what palestinians have been saying on the ground that so many civilians have been caught up, but the israeli ambassador to london talking to me earlier blaming that on hamas. But of course, we have heard from palestinians saying they have simply no where to go. And un agencies on the ground also echoing that at times, asking the question where is safe . And posing the question, nowhere is safe in the gaza strip . These are some of the latest pictures and we seem to have had an increase in the scale of what we are seeing on the ground. It is of course three weeks tomorrow from the October The 7th attacks and over that time, we were discussing it on the programme of course, initially, israel reeling with the shock, the bewilderment, the fury in terms of what had happened on the seventh. Unprecedented nature of the attacks. And they said from day one because of the unprecedented nature of the attacks, the response would also be unprecedented. And that is a line thatis unprecedented. And that is a line that is repeated from the idf, that they have started intense and unprecedented attacks all parts of the gaza strip. So that is a significant development. And we will watch these scenes and bring you the lines as they come in. It is worth just referring to what the un Secretary General said side from the military on the humanitarian situation, warning that the humanitarian system in gaza was facing total collapse, with unimaginable consequences for more than 2 million civilians. Talking about an unprecedented avalanche of human suffering. And again underlined the need to allow food, water, medicines and fuel into the gaza strip. So those are just some of the latest lines, clearly things developing on the ground in the last few minutes. We will keep an eye constantly on that as we bring you more of the developments. And lets turn to one of the developments here at home. The Greater Manchester mayor andy burnham has joined at home. The Greater Manchester mayor andy burnham hasjoined calls for a ceasefire in this war, putting him at odds with the Labour Party Leader sir keir starmer. The mayor of london, and other labour mps, have made similar calls, but the official labour party line is they should be a, quote, pause in the conflict, to allow aiding and hostages to be released. Lets get the political view with helen catt at westminster. How much of a problem is this becoming for sir keir starmer . Notjust a couple of mayors, but a number of his own mps with a similar line. Labour are taking the same approach as the government on this. They say they back this idea of what they call humanitarian pauses to allow british nationals out, to allow more aid in, but they are rejecting the idea of a full ceasefire. And there has been some unhappiness within the labour party about this. Over the course of this week we have seen it initially 150 muslim Labour Councillors writing to sir keir starmer to urge him to adopt a call for a ceasefire, that has risen to 250, we have seen some councils resign. We have seen 39 labour mps sign a formal call in parliament for a ceasefire. And today, we have got three of the most prominent Labour Politicians outside of westminster, the leader of Scottish Labour took 02, and the mayor of Manchester Andy burnham and the mayor of london sadiq khan adding their voices. Sadiq khan adding their voices. Sadiq khan adding their voices. Sadiq khan said substantial escalation was likely Scottish Labour anas sarwar. Thats why they needed vital aid to reach those who needed vital aid to reach those who needed it gaza. Andy burnham said given the humanitarian disaster unfolding in gaza, he was also going to back calls for the ceasefire and the Scottish Labour leader anas sarwar saying these were dark times. He and sadiq khan have been clear they believe israel has broken international law, which is not something Labour Leadership is saying. It is not necessarily unusualfor saying. It is not necessarily unusual for Scottish Labour because of the way devolution works to have a different position on issues from the wider labour party, but certainly, this call for a ceasefire coming from the mayors is out of step with what the Labour Leadership is saying. So you might be thinking, what is the difference between a humanitarian pause and a ceasefire . This was something we put to, that was put to shadow environment secretary steve reid and this is how he responded. fix, secretary steve reid and this is how he reminded secretary steve reid and this is how he responded. A pause allows the aid to no on he responded. A pause allows the aid to go on without he responded. A pause allows the aid to go on without stopping he responded. A pause allows the aid to go on without stopping israel to Go On Without Stopping Israel Taking to Go On Without Stopping Israel Taking action to disable the terrorists who attacked them in the first place terrorists who attacked them in the first place. A ceasefire would stop israel first place. A ceasefire would stop israel from first place. A ceasefire would stop israel from doing that and would lead the israel from doing that and would lead the Terrorist Capability intact leave lead the Terrorist Capability intact leave if lead the Terrorist Capability intact leave. If they are left at the same leave. If they are left at the same capability, with the bombs come up same capability, with the bombs come up with same capability, with the bombs come up with the same capability, with the bombs come up with the weapons, holding over 200 hostages, then they will go back into israel 200 hostages, then they will go back into israel and they will do this again into israel and they will do this aaain. ,. , again. This evening, we have seen three shadow again. This evening, we have seen three Shadow Ministers again. This evening, we have seen three Shadow Ministers repostingl again. This evening, we have seen l three Shadow MinistersReposting On X formally known as twitter that message from anas sarwar. So it does look like this discontent we know has been there within the labour ranks during the week does seem to be starting to grow. And that of course does put pressure on sir keir starmer. A Labour Spokesperson this evening said that of course they understand why people want to call for a ceasefire, the Palestinian People they say are not hamas and they are suffering terribly. But the spokesperson also said the party had to recognise that israel was subject to recognise that israel was subject to a vile Terrorist Attack and it has a right and a duty to defend itself. So it doesnt look at the stage as if the Labour Position is likely to shift time soon. Likely to shift time soon. Helen, thanks very likely to shift time soon. Helen, thanks very much. Likely to shift time soon. Helen, thanks very much. Lets likely to shift time soon. Helen, thanks very much. Lets get likely to shift time soon. Helen, | thanks very much. Lets get back likely to shift time soon. Helen,. Thanks very much. Lets get back to the situation on the ground. I was reading the latest statement from the un Secretary General talking about a collapse of the system with unimaginable consequences for more than 2 million civilians on the ground. Earlier, ispoke than 2 million civilians on the ground. Earlier, i spoke to the Director General of the International Red cross and he told me some aid has got in today. He told me some of the details. Well, we not six told me some of the details. Well, we got six tracks told me some of the details. Well, we got six tracks in told me some of the details. Well, we got six tracks in and told me some of the details. Well, we got six tracks in and the told me some of the details. Well, we got six tracks in and the team i told me some of the details. Ii we got six tracks in and the team of ten, mainly surgicalteam we got six tracks in and the team of ten, mainly Surgical Team who will help doctors and nurses in hospitals in gaza operates, hospitals are at Breaking Point and the medical supplies are Surgical Supplies that can help treat up to 5,000 wounded civilians, people come in the gaza strip. So of course, this is a welcome step, but it is a drop in an ocean of needs and we need really sustained flow of humanitarian aid inside the gaza strip, we need faster and more fluid to rotations of staff so that we can work hand with our partners from the Palestine Society and support more hospitals in what we consider is nothing short of a catastrophic humanitarian situation on the ground. I will come back to that situation on the ground. I will come back to that thought situation on the ground. I will come back to that thought in situation on the ground. I will come back to that thought in a situation on the ground. I will come back to that thought in a moment i situation on the ground. I will come | back to that thought in a moment or two. But ijust want back to that thought in a moment or two. But i just want to ask you about the numbers you are getting in, how that actually works out. We were showing the pictures you sent of your trucks you have been able to get in, but you talked aboutjust the view that there were. How is it working . You obviously want to send in much more, what are those conversations like about what you end up being able to send in . That is a big challenge. End up being able to send in . Twat is a big challenge. There are green lights at political level, but we need those green lights to materialise in Concrete Action with more trucks. So basically, there are trucks behind that we hope will be able to enter tomorrow. So there needs to be a much more Fluid Pr
