G8 pledges $3bn to Palestinians
The G8 has pledged a $3bn (£1.72bn) aid package for the Palestinian Authority.

Speaking at the Gleneagles summit, UK Prime Minister Tony Blair said the funds were to help Israel and the Palestinians co-exist in peace.

He described the package as a "contrast with the politics of terror", referring to Thursday's bomb attacks on London.
