| | | | | Iain McDowell | | 27 November 2024 | | | | Good morning. After nearly 14 months of conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, a ceasefire has come into force overnight - read on for the latest from Lebanon. Back in the UK we have an investigation into the abuse of autistic children, and we speak to MPs wrestling with how to vote on assisted dying. Plus, a gnome kidnapping mystery is solved almost 50 years on. | | | | | | |
| | Will Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire hold? | | | | Attacks by both sides were recorded until just before the ceasefire began. Credit: Reuters | | With large parts of Lebanon in ruins, 3,700 people killed and a million more displaced, the war between Israel and Hezbollah has been devastating for the country. But this morning there is relative calm. So can this ceasefire last? As our security correspondent Frank Gardner explains, the key test will be in its implementation. Israel will withdraw over the next 60 days, while Lebanese forces take over the area previously controlled by Hezbollah. What's been agreed won't directly affect Israel's war in Gaza but US President Joe Biden hopes it could bring a wider peace. And what lies ahead for Lebanon? Our Middle East correspondent Hugo Bachega says this deal ends the conflict but not the country's crisis. | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Pupils' families tell us they're having to live with consequences of the harm. | | | | | UK winner of EuroMillions scoops £177m jackpot | | | It's a prize that makes the winner richer than Harry Styles and Adele.

| | | | Gnome kidnapper finally confesses after 48 years | | | | The gnomes were eventually found and returned to their owners. Credit: BBC | | When gnomes vanished from dozens of gardens in the quiet seaside town of Formby in 1976, ransom notes demanding 25p for their return were left in their place. But who was the mystery gnome-napper? The case remained unsolved for decades... until now. After laying low for all that time, one man has finally admitted his crimes. | | | | | | | | |
