'I witnessed war crimes' in Gaza, former worker at GHF aid site tells BBC

A retired US special forces officer has revealed to the BBC why he resigned from his work with US- and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) aid distribution centres.

He added that in his entire career he has never witnessed such a level of "brutality and use of indiscriminate and unnecessary force against a civilian population, an unarmed, starving population".

It took months of planning and included over 125 planes, a submarine and 14 "bunker buster" bombs. BBC Verify explains how the US mission "Operation Midnight Hammer" took place.

The BBC's Lucy Williamson is outside Soroka Hospital in Beersheba, in the south of the country, as emergency workers assess the scene.

Israel's Prime Minister has long warned that Iran is close to developing nuclear weapons. BBC Verify's Ros Atkins explains what we know about its programme.

Iran's Fordo nuclear site is one of the most heavily fortified. There's only one conventional weapon that could destroy it - and only the US is known to have it.
