ITV Good Morning Britain halted as Ranvir Singh issues devastating breaking news update
Ranvir Singh interrupted Thursday's instalment of ITV GMB to deliver a heartbreaking news update Good Morning Britain was halted for major breaking news today. Ranvir Singh took over from show hosts Kate Garraway and Adil Ray as she updated viewers on the unfolding situation with regards to Israel and Iran. Kate and Adil had been discussing the day's headlines so far when the camera cut to Ranvir, with Kate saying: 'Now, Ranvir as the rest of today's news and I think you're starting with some breaking news, aren't you?' Ranvir replied: "Yeah, indeed, thank you so much, Kate. Breaking news that in a new wave of Iranian missile strikes, which have hit Israel in the last few hours, a major hospital in the city of Beersheba has suffered extensive damage, and buildings have been destroyed in Tel Aviv. "Meanwhile, Donald Trump has approved plans to attack Iran but has not made final decisions on whether to go ahead." A live news update then came from reporter Richard Gaisford in Tel Aviv, as he highlighted a devastating amount of damage in the area - "the world's largest diamond trading district" - with ITV viewers. He said: "This is the world's largest diamond trading area. The missile alert started at breakfast time this morning, and you're looking at pictures now of the Holon district of Tel Aviv. 'Extensive damage throughout this city in the centre of Israel, we heard ballistic missiles flying over our heads. "The air defence systems were in action. Certainly, it seems Iran still has the ability to target Israel with its ballistic missiles, and at this point, Israel is not able to stop all of them." The journalist then went on to explain that the strikes are a "really significant" attack, but highlighted the fact to GMB fans that what they were seeing was actually the result of a military assault earlier this week, as reports Manchester Evening News. He said: "This has been developing over the last few days, and it shows really at this stage that Iran is not yet done. "There had been some talks that perhaps the Israelis had been able to take out most of the missile sites. "That certainly doesn't appear to be the case that they are still able to launch and get their missile right into the heart of Israel." Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has urged the Iranian regime and Benjamin Netanyahu's Israeli government to de-escalate and pull back from the brink as he flew to the G7 in Canada earlier this week. It came as Iranian missiles rained down on Tel Aviv in response to the Israeli government's assault on military and nuclear targets in Tehran. Fighter jets and extra British military assets will be deployed to the Middle East as fears grow over an all-out war in the region, the PM revealed. The assets have been described by the Prime Minister as "contingency support" and it is understood aircraft began deployment preparations on Friday. The UK already has jets in the region as part of its Operation Shader contribution. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

ITV Good Morning Britain segment pulled off air as Ranvir Singh forced to stop sweary report
ITV GMB's Ranvir Singh had to step in and cut the report. ITV Good Morning Britain had to cut one of its live reports today after explicit language could be heard in the background. During Ranvir Singh's news segment she was joined by the North America correspondent Noel Phillips, who was discussing the national guard troops in LA for the ICE protests. However in the background of the reports, the protestors in LA were heard using a number of explicit words as Donald Trump sends another 2,000 National Guards and 700 Marines to LA on the fourth day of unrest, writes The Mirror. As the report rolled, it was quickly cut as Ranvir stepped in saying: "I'm just going to interrupt that - I think we could hear some profanities being spoken. That's my understanding of what's going on there near Noel and we can't really broadcast that at quarter past eight in the morning. We're going to try to get back to him." Fans took to social media to talk about the on air mishap, one fan penned: "Who would think it be a good idea to be in the middle of the protesters that are angry…" The moment comes after Noel opened up about being shot with a rubber bullet while covering the chaos live from Los Angeles on Monday, leading to his need for medical treatment. Susanna asked Noel about the incident, she said: "You found yourself in the line of fire yesterday, didn't you? Just before your report at eight o'clock. "We had no idea at the time. We've seen a number of reporters, in fact you reported on one yesterday morning of a photographer who had been hit, what happened to you?" Speaking about the incident, Noel said: "Susanna and Richard, just 10 minutes before coming on air yesterday, I was on the floor talking to several protesters. I was on the floor because it was the best place to be, given the fact that the situation around us was so volatile, officers were obviously chasing protestors on the streets." He further described the moment of impact, saying: "As I was laying on the floor, I felt as though an enormous ton of bricks had fallen on my arm. I realised, within about 20 to 30 seconds, that a rubber bullet had grazed the top layer of my skin and had caused a bit of injury. "My arm was swollen, I went to the doctors, got it checked out, it wasn't broken at all. But, it was swollen, it still is swollen and it's in a bandage at the moment. "It's pretty surreal to be hit, but relieved as it could have been worse. These rubber bullets are less lethal than a bullet but they can kill you or seriously injury you."

ITV Good Morning Britain host concerned for co-star as loud bangs heard live on air
A live report on ITV GMB on Monday morning caused concern when loud bangs were heard. Good Morning Britain presenter Ranvir Sing had to reassure viewers tuning in to Monday morning's ITV breakfast programme. Ranvir was in the studio with her co-hosts Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid, delivering the latest global news headlines when loud bangs were heard in the background. The hosts went to Los Angeles via videolink where protests have reignited, with demonstrators opposing immigration raids clashing with law enforcement for a third day, writes the Mirror. Protesters congregating in downtown LA were told by police to disperse immediately, following earlier demonstrations that blocked a major city road. National Guard units, deployed by President Donald Trump, resorted to tear gas to disperse the protesters. The North America Correspondent for ITV, Noel Phillips, reported live from LA, with loud bangs audible in the background during his segment. Speaking to the camera, Noel said: "As you can see police are now trying to get these protestors off the streets, Ranvir. We're going to try and bring you more a little later on." Producers then told Ranvir to clarify the alarming sounds with Noel during the segment on the programme. Discussing the unfolding situation, Ranvir clarified: "And just to be clear, my producer was telling me that was fireworks because of course there's several cameras there. Just wanted to make that clear because for you because obviously alarming to hear that kind of sound." The loud bangs were quite worrying, which then prompted concern from another presenter. Later, Susanna checked in with Noel, asking if he was alright as the programme crossed back over to America for the latest updates. Noel confirmed he was unharmed before delivering an in-depth update on the unfolding situation. He then spoke with locals for his segment, while Richard and Susanna from the studio reminded him to "stay safe" as his report concluded. Elsewhere in the show, host Richard disclosed that he had suffered a double wrist fracture in France over the weekend. "That looks sore," remarked his colleague Susanna, observing the cast on Richard's wrist. Richard recounted the incident, he said: "Yeah, it's a double fracture of the wrist. I was walking quite quickly down a steep pavement in France, actually, on Friday,". He continued, detailing the accident: "The pavement was loose and it flipped up and it flipped me forward, and I thought, 'Am I gonna win or is gravity gonna win?' And gravity won, and I hit the ground hard. So yeah, I've got a double fracture and we'll see how it goes." Good Morning Britain airs weekdays on ITV1 and ITVX at 6am.
