Health Secretary Wes Streeting has called for resident doctors to "abandon their unreasonable rush to strike" after warning NHS recovery is "fragile".

It comes as new data shows the waiting list for routine hospital treatment in England has fallen for the second consecutive month to its lowest in more than two years.

However, the number of patients facing the longest waits increased, according to NHS figures.
