The vessel, operated by the open arms charity, has been repositioning itself in the harbour in larnaca while another smaller boat towed a Barge Carrying Aid Supplies out onto the waters. Believe we are showing you the live pictures right now of that ship. We are going to keep it up throughout the programme as we discussed gaza as it prepares to set sail. Over the last two days, its been loaded with around 200 tonnes of food and medical supplies. The aid will be overseen by the World Central Kitchen organisation. But without a working port, its not clear yet where the ship will actually dock or how its cargo will be distributed inside gaza. World central kitchen is founded by the celebrity american chefjose andress. The us military has confirmed that one of its ships is currently sailing to the middle east, carrying equipment to build a temporary pier off the coast of gaza. The support vessel, the general frank s bessonjunior, left virginia on saturday. Meanwhile, talks involving mediators aimed at establishing a pause in the fighting before the start of the muslim holy month of ramadan have so far failed to reach a deal. Both israel and hamas are accusing the other of preventing any progress. And the stakes are high. More than 31,000 palestinians are now reported to have been killed, according to the Health Ministry run by hamas, since israel began its Military Action following hamas� s attack on october the 7th. Around 1,200 people were killed, and more than 250 people were taken hostage. Anna foster reports. Theres little hope to be found amid the rubble in gaza. Another night of israeli strikes has taken its toll. Images like this travel around the world. Across the atlantic, israels main ally sees them too. The us President Joe Biden said he still supported israels right to defend itself, but he cautioned the israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu about the extent of the Military Operations he was sanctioning. He must, he must, he must pay more attention to the innocent lives being lost as a consequence of the actions taken. Hes hurting in my view, hes hurting israel more than helping israel by making the rest of the world its contrary to what israel stands for and i think its a big mistake. Just two weeks ago, mr biden was optimistic a ceasefire deal could be in place by ramadan. But now, with just hours to go, theres no sign of an imminent breakthrough. That means other options to get aid into gaza at scale are still being sought, as the fighting continues. Military airdrops above the strip deliver some food, but not enough. But that still wont meet the growing and desperate need. This mother cant find anything in gaza to help her child. Translation i feed my daughter with waterjust so she doesnt die. I water is not recommended and its even forbidden for a baby of her age. Meanwhile, sweden and canada have said they will resume aid payments to the un agency for palestinian refugees, unrwa. We will come back to that story at some point. First, we will show you some point. First, we will show you some pictures here of a road in gaza. According to the netherlands, hundreds of protesters have demonstrated against israels actions in gaza is the israeli president attended the Inauguration Ofa of a museum commemorating the holocaust. Some of those protesting about Isaac Herzogs visit were themselves jewish. They chanted never again is now accusing him of complicity in a genocide, an allegation he and the Israeli Government strongly reject. The Human Rights GroupAmnesty International put up detour signs around the museum, to direct mr herzog to the International Court ofjustice in the hague. Lets get more on president herzogs visit to amsterdam our europe regional editor, Danny Aeberhard is following the story. Well, hes representing the israeli state at the opening of this extremely important museum. The Dutch NationalHolocaust Museum is the first and only museum in the netherlands to concentrate exclusively on the fate of dutch jews. It also obviously looks at other victims of the holocaust, such as the roma, but the vast majority of people who died were jewish. 102,000 dutchjews were killed during the second world war. Thats about three quarters of the population. It was a very well integrated population at the time, and its the worst percentage for any nazi occupied country in western europe. So, you know, some terrible tales of killings, also some tales of survival as well. So its about educating people never to forget. Lets look at the situation with unrwa once again. Sweden and canada have said they will resume aid payments to the un agency for palestinian refugees, unrwa. They were among 16 countries that paused funds after israel accused at least 12 unwra employees of involvement in the brutal attack by hamas on the 7th of october. Unrwa is the biggest un agency operating in gaza. It not only provides health care, education and other humanitarian aid, but also employs about 13,000 people in gaza. The un says it is still conducting an investigation. Lets speak to scott anderson, who is the Deputy Director of unrwa affairs in gaza. Scott, we really do appreciate your time.

It is the highest investigative body within the United Nations and is unrwa, we have no Input Control over the investigation so like everyone else, we are merely waiting for the outcome and hope it will come soon. It is my understanding that unrwa has agreed to make some changes, some checks on its staff and finances in orderfor some checks on its staff and finances in order for donors alike sweden for example, to start resuming its payments. Is there any more you can tell us about some of the changes . The changes . Every donor has different requirements, the changes . Every donor hasj different requirements, based the changes . Every donor has i different requirements, based on their national law, and we do it best to adhere to those at all times. Furtherstaff, best to adhere to those at all times. Further staff, we already do a lot, we do reference checks, Background Checks for all our staff and in addition to that, we share our staff list with the host countries, including israel, every year, the last time we shared the staff for gaza or in west bank was in early 2023 and we have never heard from israel or any others about the status of any of our staff having ties contrary to un values. Right, but in this case now you have, and an investigation had been lodged, that why these countries, some of your largest donors, 16 total build sum of theirfunding. Philip lazzarini, at the time, the head of unrwa, said it was close to death after these payments had been suspended. Is that still the case . Id say were not close to death, but probably on life support would be a better way to set. Thankfully, we had do now as the european union, sweden, canada, the United Arab Emirates that have stepped up and sent additional money there but was an increase in funding from spain recently, so many donors have really stepped up and provided additional funding. That does not mean we are out of the woods, theres still a lot of work we have to do, but the Funding Situation looks better, which is very important for the people we are taking care of in gaza and the entire population of million in need, and were most critically concerned with 300,000 people in the north where there are pockets Of Starvation.

It has been difficult for some of the convoys to move and what would really change the approach of the whole humanity in communities if there was an opening from israel into the north of gaza where we can transit supplies directly. There is a port and asked dad not even a0 kilometres away, we could move foot in very quickly and address the problem that might begin to address the problem of pockets Of Starvation.

This time it is much different, the skill of the conflict, the reason for the conflict, the reason for the conflict, the reason for the conflict, the number of displaced people the scale of the conflict. Now a population many living in tents, makeshift plastic structures, they currently do not have enough Food Supplies to address their basic needs and now, as you know, they fast, no water, no food between sunup and sundown, and i think it will be a much more difficult environment and i think it will make people irritable and perhaps lead to civil unrest because they find themselves in a very difficult situation at the start of ramadan and it is a time that should be for self improvement, reflection and togetherness as a family and what they are faced with is destitution and an inability to meet their basic needs every day. And an inability to meet their basic needs every day needs every day. Scott, before we enter the interview, needs every day. Scott, before we enter the interview, we needs every day.

Scott, before we | enter the interview, we are running out of time, i would love to know from you, then you will believe, some of the donors have, that unrwas credibility is shot after the accusations of any complicity with the attack on the seventh.

It is like shutting down a cabinet or branch of government, not something that can be done easily. Unrwa is designed to transition to a government of palestine when there is a two state solution, so we would very much like to see unrwa shut down for that reason, but until then, we need to stay here and continue to deliver humanitarian assistance to the population.

Thank you here in the united kingdom, the princess of wales has thanked the public for their support as she recovers from recent surgery. In a mothers day message accompanied by a family photo taken at windsor, catherine said thank you for the kind wishes shes received since she underwent an abdominal operation two months ago. 0ur Royal CorrespondentDaniela Relph reports. A family photo for mothers day that is hoped will calm some of the more extreme gossip about the princess recovery. An informal image with her three children in windsor. Her husband, the prince of wales, was behind the lens. With the photo a personal message. Signed off with a c for catherine.

Thank you. Have a very happy christmas. A few weeks later, she was in hospital having abdominal surgery. Her exact condition has never been made public and the team around her have fiercely protected her privacy. Prince william has continued with royal duties without his wife at his side. Flowers and messages wishing her well have become part of every engagement he now does. There is unlikely to be any more detail released about the princess recovery for now. There has also been a mothers day post on social media from Buckingham Palace a photo of the king and the late queen, along with a message to those missing their mothers today. Kensington palace will hope the photo of the princess addresses the public curiosity about her and quells wilder speculation. We still dont expect to see her back on royal duty until after easter. Police say a man arrested for crashing into the gates of Buckingham Palace has been sectioned under the Mental Health act. The car crashed into the gates of Buckingham Palace in the early hours of saturday morning. Armed officers detained the man and he was taken to hospital. There were no reports of any injuries. The incident is not being treated as terror related and the man has been released on bail as inquiries continue. Princess dianas brother, earl spencer, has said he was sexually abused as a child.
