  • This BBC podcast is supported by ads outside the UK.

  • This is the global news podcast from the BBC World Service.

  • I'm Charlotte Gallagher and at 16 hours GMT on Thursday the 16th of October,

  • these are our main stories.

  • Israel's Prime Minister has warned the struggle for Gaza is not over after U.S. officials played down concerns about the ceasefire falling apart.

  • The latest on France's political crisis after a dramatic day in parliament.

  • Also in this podcast, the children in Sudan caught up in its bloody civil war.

  • The firework display, which was a spectacular disaster.

  • It's precisely what makes it look so beautiful,

  • the fact it's happening in the mountains of Tibet that caused a near-instant and some would say predictable backlash from environmental campaigners.

  • And we look back on the life of a legendary Nepalese Sherpa.

  • Washington has downplayed claims Hamas is violating the ceasefire deal,

  • stressing the complexity of the operation to recover all the dead bodies of Israeli hostages.

  • The Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he remains determined that all dead Israeli hostages in Gaza are returned and has warned the war in Gaza is not over.

  • A key part of the ceasefire deal was that all living and deceased hostages had to be returned to Israel,

  • but 19 bodies are still unaccounted for.

  • Many are believed to be under the rubble of buildings bombed by Israel.

  • Our Middle East analyst Sebastian Usher told me more about what Washington has been doing.

  • I think that these two senior advisors to President Trump stepped in to give this briefing to try to full-stool any momentum towards the sense that the ceasefire is beginning to break down because of this issue.
