Hello and thank you for
joining us for today's BBC Verify Live.
Israel has begun a 10-hour
pause in military activity in parts of Gaza to
allow more aid to be distributed. We're tracking air drop operations, including some that landed in an area that was declared a 'dangerous combat
zone'.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer will meet US President
Donald Trump in Scotland later. Trade is one of the topics up for discussion as
Starmer seeks to reduce the US-imposed 25% tariff on British steel. We'll be
unpicking the US-UK trading relationship in light of the deal Trump struck with
the EU at the weekend.
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage
is due to give a press conference later this morning on crime and policing. Our
fact-checkers will be following it.
