Good Morning Britain fans were left feeling emotional as the show's hosts shared a "horrific" news update.

During Friday's (September 5) edition of the hit ITV programme, presenters Kate Garraway and Adil Ray delivered the latest news from across the UK and around the world.

They were joined in the studio by Laura Tobin, who presented regular weather updates, while Charlotte Hawkins handled the rest of the day's news.

Elsewhere in the show, Kate and Adil spoke to British physiotherapist Rachael Moses, who has just returned from Gaza where she was working in the Nasser Hospital when it was attacked by the IDF last week.

"Sometimes I'm left speechless because the words we could use to describe what is happening to the people of Gaza and the people of Palestine are indescribable," she said.

"22 months of brutality. I've seen things that I've never seen in my entire 25-year career dealing with people in Gaza. Children, newborn babies, bullets to the brain.

"The most horrific, traumatic brain injuries, huge levels of disability, on top of the inhumane living conditions."

Speaking about the attack on the Nasser Hospital, Rachael went on: "We were in the room next door in the intensive care unit, so the operating room was struck first.

"It's not unusual to hear and feel explosions in any of the hospitals, including Nasser, and I think it's been hit three times since I've been working out there.

"We carried on working, it's very usual to feel explosions in a hospital. That is a reality of my colleagues working out there everyday. It wasn't until about 30 seconds later, people came rushing in to get gloves and debris started to come in."

The medic said she wasn't deterred from returning to help those suffering, adding: "I think anyone who goes to Gaza or any country like Gaza, especially as a healthcare worker, you have a duty of care for the most vulnerable people in the world, and that's what we're driven by."

Adil concluded: "Rachael, you've put it so eloquently. You're a hero, you really are. I know you won't feel that. It's about simple humanity and what you're doing is absolutely fantastic, and we're really grateful."

The interview left viewers feeling emotional, with many taking to X (formerly Twitter) to share their reactions.

"Rachael Moses a British Medic, I am so proud of you," one person wrote, with another adding: "This is just heartbreaking."
