The leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, says bomb attacks using thousands of the Lebanese armed group's pagers and radios "crossed all red lines", and accused Israel of what he said represented a declaration of war. As he was speaking, Israeli jets flew in the skies over Beirut and later bombed many locations in southern Lebanon. Israel says it has approved battle plans for its northern front. Sir Keir Starmer insists he is "completely in control" amid a spate of off-the-record briefing over the salary of his chief of staff Sue Gray. The Prime Minister also defended his decision to accept corporate hospitality from Arsenal football club, saying he could no longer use his season ticket as prime minister. And the man who co-founded the BBC's Natural History Unit, Tony Soper, has died at the age of 95.
