Hamas and allied Palestinian militant groups committed "systematic, widespread" sexual violence during the October 7th 2023 attack on Israel and against hostages held captive in Gaza.

Starmer tried to shore up support within his Cabinet following a febrile few days in the wake of hefty losses for the Labour Party in local elections last week: if repeated in a national election would see it overwhelmingly ejected from power. Rumours about potential successors have grown over the course of the day, whether it is members of the government or the current Manchester mayor. FRANCE 24's Bénédicte Paviot tells us more from 10 Downing Street.

The French government has put in place a strong protocol as it races to break transmission of the hantavirus, as five passengers from the infected cruiseship were repatriated. The French Health Minister Stephanie Rist said on May 12 some things about the hantavirus that struck the MV Hondius cruise ship were not known, including whether it has mutated, although officials were "rather reassured." FRANCE 24's James André tells us more Paris.

Israel's parliament has passed a law to set up a special military tribunal to try hundreds of Palestinians accused of taking part in the October 7 2023 attack, under which the death penalty could be handed down. Lawmakers said the step would help heal national trauma, though some rights groups have criticised the measure, warning it does away with procedures safeguarding the right to a fair trial.

The last passengers aboard the MV Hondius were finally evacuated this week from the cruise ship hit by a hantavirus outbreak. However, once repatriated to their home countries, they faced widely differing public health protocols for containing the virus. The United States stands out for its particularly relaxed approach.
