BBC’s Lyse Doucet visits Gaza where during the last conflict with Israel, more than 2,000 people were killed and 18,000 homes destroyed. 73 Israelis also died. It’s now 6 months since a ceasefire was declared and tens of thousands still have no shelter. International donors pledged more than $4bn for the reconstruction of Gaza, but little of the money has arrived. As our Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet has been finding out, most Gazans feel that a new war is inevitable.

    If I were a Palestinian I would fight for my homeland which was once vast and taken bit by bit by the colonialists, every Muslim fights for their rights, that's where the colonialists say Muslims are terrorists, and when non-Muslims seize their rights they are not called terrorists, May non-Muslims and Muslims live in peace without seeing the propaganda carried out by greedy people,

    Jews have no shame. Destroying every home and building without a care. Arabs should wake up and fight for Palestine. Failure of support for Palestinians

    Hamas spends millions of dollars on tunnels and missiles. They should be spending it on building. The Arabs know what kind of chaos they create and don't want to deal with them at all. Can't say I blame them. What about the Palestinians in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Turkey etc. They live in camps and those countries don't want them either

    The Koran is full of words to ill treat Christians, Jews, discriminate Women. Aggression to non-believers. Those Gazans have to rethink that Koran is not the whole truth and the only truth. It was composed of words of the Torah, the words of the traditions Arabs, rules made up by Muhammad himself, words menipulated and rewritten by the later followers. Not the words from Allah

Why are graduates so angry about student loans? | BBC News

Published

How can you spend years paying off your student loan and still owe more than you borrowed?

Ten years ago, the first Plan 2 borrowers started repaying their student loans. Since then, graduates who left university with similar debts have found themselves on very different financial paths.

The amount you earn affects how much you repay, how much interest builds up and whether you’ll ever clear your balance. BBC Education Correspondent Hazel Shearing investigates why so many graduates are frustrated with the system and what their student loan really means for their future.

Ex-gang boss Duane “Keffe D” Davis sentenced for orchestrating Tupac Shakur’s murder | BBC News

Published

on



Former gang boss Duane “Keffe D” Davis has been sentenced to 40 years in prison for orchestrating the murder of rapper Tupac Shakur in a drive-by shooting in 1996.

The key evidence in the case were Davis’ own words, in which he repeatedly and publicly acknowledged being inside the white Cadillac from where the deadly shots were fired.

A jury found him guilty in September of one count of murder with a deadly weapon. Davis has said he will appeal the verdict.

His conviction was the first in a cold case that has intrigued hip-hop fans for nearly 30 years.

What happens when you don’t know your family medical history? | BBC News

Published

on



Do you know your family medical history? For hundreds of thousands of care-experienced people, the answer isn’t always straightforward.

Missing medical and childhood information can affect access to healthcare, from identifying inherited conditions to getting an autism assessment.

In some cases, the consequences can be life-threatening, with people unaware of genetic conditions that could put them at serious risk.

BBC journalist Sophia Watkins travelled across the UK to meet adopted and care-experienced people, hearing how gaps in their records have affected their lives and what they’ve done to find answers.

Pope Leo has lung cancer – Vatican reveals diagnosis and details of surgery | BBC News

Published

on



Pope Leo XIV has been diagnosed with lung cancer and has had surgery to remove a lower lobe of his right lung, the Vatican has said in a medical bulletin.

The 71-year-old underwent a 90 minute operation on Tuesday at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital and was subsequently diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma.

The lump was first detected during what the Vatican has described as “routine checks”.

Earlier, large crowds gathered outside the hospital to greet the Pope, with some waiting for several hours. They cheered greetings and well wishes as he passed, while he waved and smiled back through the lowered back window of his car.
He was then met by staff on the hospital steps. “I’m sorry,” one of them commiserated, to which the Pope gave a smile and a shrug. “We’re here for you,” he was assured.

In its statement, the Vatican said the whole lower lobe of the Pope’s right lung was removed “to ensure the procedure was radical”.

A Vatican source told Agence France-Presse news agency that further tests are being carried out to see if there was any sign the cancer had spread.

Leo XIV announced news of his operation to the world on Sunday, without at that time confirming that he was suffering from cancer. Speaking from the balcony in St Peter’s Square after delivering the traditional Angelus blessing, he said the nodule, or growth, on his lung was “contained” and had been found “at a very early stage”, but that doctors had advised him to have it removed.

Nodules are quite common and not necessarily cancerous, but after it was examined the medical team confirmed it was pulmonary adenocarcinoma, “as suspected by pre-operative tests”, the Vatican said. It said that the pontiff, who is generally thought to be fit, had no symptoms of infection or illness.

Sophie Raworth presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Sarah Rainsford at the Vatican.
