THE BBC was accused of being a propaganda tool for Hamas yesterday in a furious row over a documentary.

Its prime-time Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone featured children living in the strip since the October 7 attack on Israel.

But the main narrator — 13-year-old Abdulla Eliyazouri — is reportedly the son of Hamas deputy minister of agriculture Dr Ayman Al-Yazouri.

And one of the cameramen is said to have previously posted messages saluting the October 7 massacre and videos showing off Hamas weapons.

The hour-long documentary was broadcast on Monday on BBC2 and is available for the next year on iPlayer.

Investigative journalist David Collier, who revealed the identities of those involved, said: “How did the BBC let a son of a Hamas minister walk around looking for sympathy and demonising Israel for an hour in a documentary?

“The BBC is publishing Hamas propaganda.

“The current hierarchy at the BBC has turned a once respected state broadcaster into a propaganda outlet for a radical Islamic terror group.”

Tory peer Baroness Foster also blasted the Beeb, saying: “A total lack of accurate research resulted in an hour of propaganda and lies.”

Abdulla previously featured in a Channel 4 report in November 2023, soon after Israel’s bombardment of Gaza began.

He appeared under a different name with a man called Khalil Abushammala, who was said to be his father.

But Abushammala is actually his uncle and director of a group which campaigns for Palestinian prisoners.

It has links to the terror group Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), according to Collier.

The PFLP took part in the October 7 attacks alongside Hamas.

A BBC spokesman said: “The documentary was produced in line with our editorial guidelines and the BBC had full editorial control.

“It was edited and directed from London, as independent international journalists are not allowed into Gaza.”

CELTIC fans unfurled an anti-Zionist banner during the club’s Champions League clash against Bayern Munich tonight.

The Premiership outfit travelled to Germany with a suspended ban hanging over their head due to previous supporter indiscretions.

Celtic came into the second leg 2-1 down to Bayern from the first game at Parkhead.

But there were fears their supporters would be banned from attending this week’s clash.

Fans unveiled an anti-Israel banner during the home leg at Celtic Park, which read ‘Show Israel the Red Card’.

Those actions put the club at greater risk of further punishment from Uefa, as they followed on from a flare being thrown onto the pitch by a Celtic fan during the previous Champions League tie against Aston Villa.

Instead Uefa administered a fine, though a suspended ban continues to hang over the club’s head.

At the Allianz Arena tonight, fans were spotted waving a banner that read ‘Show Zionism the Red Card’, draping it over the bottom of the away section.

Another fan had a large Palestine flag on a pole.

European football‘s governing body prohibits clubs from making political statements at matches.

Uefa Article 45.01 reads: “The match organiser, together with the police commander for the match and the safety and security officer, must prevent any provocative action being taken by spectators inside or in the immediate vicinity of the stadium (unacceptable levels of verbal provocation from spectators towards players or opposing fans, racist behaviour, provocative banners or flags, etc.).”

The Glasgow club have been on the receiving end of several Uefa punishments in recent years.

Back in October 2023 several Palestine flags were flown during the 2-2 Champions League draw with Atletico Madrid with a banner also displayed – despite the club calling on fans to refrain from doing so.

Uefa took action in the aftermath and fined Celtic £15,000 for what they called a “provocative message of an offensive nature.”

PARCEL giant Evri admits it will lose eight million packages this year — 22,000 a day.

The delivery company, which estimates it will handle 800million parcels in 2025, predicts it will lose track of one per cent of them.

That equates to 153,846 lost parcels every week. Some will eventually reach their destination after a delay.

But others will not arrive at all thanks to being damaged or stolen. Evri last year delivered more than 730million parcels.

Thanks to an investment boost of £32million in operations and customer services, it claims to have a 99 per cent success rate.

Evri counts late or lost parcels under the same category — making up the one per cent.

The scale-up saw the firm deal with 12million customers per week last year.

And more than 7.3million parcels a year did not reach their destination on time or at all in 2024 — 20,000 a day.

Evri delivers 4,000 parcels to UK households every minute during peak delivery periods.

Now some are questioning whether the sudden scale-up has impacted on customer service.

Professor David Edmundson-Bird, of Manchester Metropolitan University, said: “When businesses expand too quickly without proper infrastructure and planning, customer service often becomes a significant casualty of growth.”

Evri said its couriers are rated 4.7 out of five by customers and it is “on track” to handle 800million parcels this financial year — with more than 99 per cent successfully delivered on time.

EMMERDALE fans think they have “worked out” who else has died after a third death rocked the village.

In terrifying scenes tonight, the ladies of the Dales continued to fight for their lives after the devastating limo crash – but not everyone survived.

The body count is rising on Emmerdale following the devastating accident.

Last night saw Suzy killed off when the limo crashed into the icy water, before a mystery body was found in the lake by Amy.

Picking up from yesterday, tonight’s episode saw quick-thinking Tracy managing to break the ice and pull Amy to safety.

However, she was left barely conscious and unable to speak with it clear she was just seconds away from death.

Tracy pulled Amy onto the embankment as she and Vanessa did their best to keep her warm and talking.

Elsewhere, the episode confirmed that Leyla had in fact sustained a catastrophic injury.

It forced Kerry to drag her out of the limo as Leyla became unable to move herself before appearing to be moments away from dying.

As Kerry scuttled herself and Leyla across the ice, the limo sunk beneath the water with Suzy’s body still trapped inside.

The emergency services then finally managed to reach the site of the crash.

Leyla and Amy were quickly transported into ambulances as was Dr. Liam who had been throwing up following a bad bump to the head in the crash.

Having performed CPR, two paramedics looked at each other before a call was made to confirm one patient was “dead upon arrival” at the hospital.

Fans have now been speculating who has died – with many thinking Leyla is too obvious.

They also think a clue about Liam has given it away that he dies.

Taking top social media, with one writing: “I bet its Liam not Leyla!”

While another said: “I think it’s Liam that doesn’t make it.

“Tonight’s episode shows some of them getting taken to hospital, the spoilers online show the person dead has a head support brace on.

“The only one that has that as they enter the ambulance is Liam.”

This one added: “It’s way to obvious to be Leyla, I think Liam dies.”

BODY COUNT

Meanwhile, the body count started on Monday night’s episode when a decomposing corpse was spotted after the crash.

It has now been heavily hinted that it was Nate Robinson’s body trapped underneath the lake.

It came after fans spotted a bracelet on the corpse which looked similar to the one Nate’s daughter Frankie had given him.

Viewers will remember that the character left the Dales in September 2024 and mysteriously vanished without being seen.

He had accepted a new job in Scotland and it appeared that he had just made a low-key exit following his wife’s affair with his uncle.

However, fans think the limo crash has exposed a shocking deadly secret that Nate was murdered and his body plunged into the bottom of the lake.

But Ben Fogle has revealed how the stillbirth of his son Willem in 2014 turned him into a control freak — and eventually led to the mental health breakdown he suffered last year.

The 51-year-old TV presenter, whose shows include Countryfile and New Lives In The Wild, said: “A number of years ago, my wife and I lost a son, who was stillborn.

“And it’s amazing how you deal with a loss like that.

“My wife Marina was very raw with her emotions.

“Mine were much more measured.

“It doesn’t mean I felt it any less, but I probably kept them within.

“And one of the big things that happened to me was that I became obsessed about control, because I’d lost control there.

“I was actually in Canada when it happened, and I had to take a flight to get back.

“I didn’t know if my wife was going to survive.

“It was like one of the periods in my life, I’ve had a few, when I had lost all control.

“And what my brain, this amazing thing, did was it made me absolutely obsessed about control.

“And I wanted to control everything.

Ben, who has son Ludo, 15, and daughter Iona, 13, added: “I wanted to control how happy my children were.

“I couldn’t bear it if they weren’t happy.

“But you can’t. You can give hugs and kisses.

“But if a child is sad, you can’t just magic happiness.

“And I think when you try to control things when you are in the public eye and in modern life, that’s really, really difficult.

“And that for me was also one of the problems. It was like a clash.

“A perfect storm of circumstances that all culminated together. I think it was a perfect storm.

“I think what happened in 2023 is that I overdid it.

“I was being over-stimulated, I was absorbing too much, I was doing too much, I was expecting too much of myself.

“It was losing control of my emotions.

“It was that lack of control that eventually led to a point where I had to press the pause button.”

‘DOOM SCROLLING’

Ben, whose symptoms included crippling paranoia and anxiety, was then diagnosed with ADHD, and said that one of his first remedies was to delete social media apps from all his devices

Speaking for a forthcoming episode of the High Performance podcast, he added: “It was definitely a chaotic period that I haven’t completely got over.”

Asked what the first warning signs of him not being well were, Ben, who first found fame on 2000 BBC One reality show Castaway, said it was when he was about to head to Antarctica for a month recreating the journeys of explorers Captain Scott and Ernest Shackleton.

He said: “On the lead-up to that — it was over the Christmas period, I left on Boxing Day — I was agitated.

“A bit like if you have a dog and you see the dog walking in circles.

“I felt restless and sick. I didn’t want to go and I couldn’t really put my finger on why I was feeling that way.

“Now in hindsight I realise it was probably what is sometimes described as a panic attack.

“I probably should have not done it. I did it. I loved it.

“It was an amazing, amazing experience. I then came back and I was almost over-elated.

“My emotions were see-sawing up and down. There was almost too much elation.

“That was the point of these sort of yo-yoing emotions that in hindsight I realise were my body saying, ‘Do you know what, you just need to slow down, stop being hard on yourself’.”

Explaining what made him seek help, he added: “It was lots of tiny little alarm bells. It was a period of moments.

“I just realised I needed to do something and to ask someone who perhaps was more knowledgeable in this field.

“I saw a psychiatrist to kind of explain what I was feeling, how I was struggling a little bit.

“I think the whole thing probably lasted in its kind of storm-like period a couple of weeks.

“And then I’d say it took quite a while to kind of clear that up — a couple of months probably. It’s probably an ongoing thing.

“I deleted social media apps from all my devices.

“Like everyone, I was doom scrolling.

“I think there’s an assumption — because of what I do, I’m constantly out in the wilderness, I’m constantly extolling the virtues of living in an analogue world, of switching off — that I am somehow completely immune to that.

“But I spend an hour coming into London on the train, scrolling and looking and looking at the news.”

Now he tries to avoid his phone on trains and leaves it behind when he is running or walking the dog.

He has also cut back on work, turning down offers he would previously have accepted.

And he spends an astonishing ten hours every day outside, even when the weather is freezing.

He said: “I live in the countryside.

“I’ve got lots of dogs, we’ve got horses, and I am probably outside, let’s say, of a 12-hour conventional day when I’m home, we and the family are outside probably ten hours of that — even in the winter with torches out.”
