EU leaders are meeting in Copenhagen under pressure to boost European defence after a series of Russian incursions into EU airspace, and days after drones targeted Danish airports. Also in the programme: The International Red Cross has been forced to cease operations in Gaza City because of the intensity of the Israeli offensive; Jane Goodall, famous for her ground-breaking studies of chimpanzees, has died at the age of 91; and as one Hollywood star, Julie Andrews, turns 90, we'll hear about a new young actor who'll never grow old.

  • Hello and welcome to News Hour Live from the BBC World Service in London.

  • I'm Rebecca Kesby.

  • Coming up on the programme today, Dame Jane Goodall,

  • the groundbreaking scientist, has died at the age of 91.

  • Her work with wild chimpanzees in the 1960s changed the way we see our own relationship to other primates.

  • Here she is talking to the BBC in 2014 about how she made her key discovery that chimps use tools.

  • She found out while she was studying them in Tanzania in the 60s.

  • And so two days later I saw two chimpanzees this time in very plain view and not only were they using grass stems to fish for termites but one of them several times picked a leafy twig and to use that he had to strip the leaves off.

  • That's the beginning of tool making.

  • And we'll have more from that interview with Jane Goodall and also we'll be assessing her legacy with the British naturalist Chris Packham in about 30 minutes time.

  • First though, according to the Danish Prime Minister, Metta Frederiksen,

  • Europe is only at the beginning of a hybrid war with Russia,

  • and that all Europeans need to understand what's at stake.

  • But when does a hybrid war become an actual war?

  • Today European leaders and defence officials met in the Danish capital Copenhagen to discuss recent drone incursions into European airspace.

  • They began last month in Poland, but since then Romania, Lithuania Norway,
