Island nations have expressed their fury after a first draft of a climate pact suggested countries "reduce" fossil fuels - a watering down of a previous, stronger proposal to "phase out".

They suggested they would reject the deal after it had been watered down, and lost any deadlines - while rising sea levels driven by climate change nibble away at their shores.

COP28 president and senior Emirati Sultan Al Jaber accepted there was still "a lot to do" and countries "must still close many gaps".

He urged governments to "focus... on closing out the toughest issues that continue to remain" and "show even more flexibility to get us to the finish line".
