6:04 am
ben king has more. the number of people vaping has surged in recent years, driven by a rush of disposable vapours from china. but many are illegal because they do not meet uk regulations, like these ones are seized by trading standards. figures released to the bbc show how the number of illegal vapours seized at airports and ports has risen from less than 5000 in 2021 to less than just under a million in 2022 to 11.5 million in the first half of the year. i bought this one online and both have the allowed amount of nicotine liquid and that means they do not meet uk regulations that would not have been through stringent safety checks and you cannot be quite sure what is in them. last year the government allocated £3 million to help sniff out illegal vapours and underage
6:05 am
sales. an announcement of further restrictions is expected next week. perhaps even a ban on disposables. the illegal market would bloom because they are such an important part of the market and are ready we know that trading standards and customs are having problems dealing with illegal vapours so they would have a much biggerjob to do. for have a much bigger “0b to do. for eve one have a much biggerjob to do. for everyone the authorities says, many more go undetected. getting illegal vapours of the threat will not be an easy task. ben king, bbc news. an oil tanker has been set on fire after a strike by houthi fighters off the coast of yemen. no injuries were reported and the ship is receiving assistance from the us navy. the uk government says britain and its allies reserve the right to respond appropriately. the head of the cia is expected to meet with officials from israel, egypt and qatar in the coming days, in an attempt to negotiate the release of hostages held by hamas, which is designated as a terrorist organisation by the uk. the proposed release would be in exchange for a temporary halt

in hostilities in gaza. two malaysian men have been sentenced 23 years at guantanamo bay for their role in the 2002 bali bombings. but the men will only have to serve six years in prison, after pleading guilty and agreeing to cooperate with prosecutors. more than 200 people were killed in the attacks, including 28 british people. commemorations will take place later for holocaust memorial day, which remembers the six million jewish people who were murdered by the nazis during the second world war, but safety concerns related to a rise in antisemitic attacks mean this year's events are set to be more muted. 0ur religion editor, aleem maqbool, has the story. the holocaust robbed drone of many memories of her extended family. today in particular she remembers them. the bravery of her mother she

6:28 am
the football world and, indeed, the masses ofjurgen klopp fans who don't even like the sport. and now, the race is on to find the person to fill the massive void he will leave at liverpool when he departs at the end of the season. it will end a near 9—year spell at anfield that has brought the club five major trophies, including both the premier league and champions league titles. he's been explaining the thinking behind his decision to call it a day. the german says he just doesn't have the energy levels to be the best version of himself in the role. with all the responsibility i have in thisjob and with all the responsibility i have in this job and these kind of things, you have to be absolutely at the top of your game and i realised my resources are not endless and this club especially with the team we have, with all the super things we have, with all the super things we have, with all the super things we have in this club, this club needs on top of that a manager at his top game and its... you don't have to go far from anfield to see

6:32 am
names with bookmakers, as is tottenham's ange postecoglou, fans of both clubs taking to social media saying, "hands off our boss!" liverpool assistant manager pep lijnders appears to be ruled out, though. the club says the dutchman will be leaving anfield to pursue his own career in management elsewhere. the fa cup holders manchester city are through to the fifth round of this season's competition after a controversial late goal gave them a 1—0 win over tottenham. the moment came in the 88th minute after kevin de bruyne's corner was touched in by nathan ake — despite spurs' protests for a foul on the keeper — after a var check the goal stood. and that was city's first goal and win at spurs in six visits. the other three ties will all need replays — bristol city against nottingham forest and chelsea versus aston villa were both goalless. only one other game, had any goals in it — and that was the match between championship sides sheffield wednesday and coventry city, which finished 101. sheffield wednesday and coventry city, which finished 1—1. coventry went ahead at hillsborough just before the break. and how about this for a debut goal
6:33 am
from new signing victor torp? what a purchase he is. coventry held on to that lead until six minutes from time when djeidi gassama, squeezed in the equaliser, ensuring a replay. after a league match between the two teams last weekend, a man was arrested on suspicion of racially abusing the coventry player kasey palmer and so, the coventry players, took a knee side by side before the match in a display of unity against racism. there were a few boos from the crowd but also widespread applause at hillsborough. he's now 17 and luke littler has cruised into the quarterfinals of the dutch masters against one of the home favourites, dirk van duijvenbode. the performance was far from his best but he finished in style with a 150 checkout. he'll face world champion luke humphries next in a repeat of the world championship final. and it was a clean sheet for the world number one as humphries raced to a 6—0 win overjermaine wattimena. a night of drama in rugby union
6:34 am
as leicester tigers moved into the premiership's top six for the first time this season, thanks to a 20—19 win over harlequins. mike brown scored the decisive try at twickenham stoop, putting the tigers back in front against his old side. but there was a dramatic ending with jarrod evans missing the chance to win it for harlequins in the final moments of the game. and finally, britain's elfyn evans still leads the monte carlo rally heading into the penultimate day. evans was over 21 seconds clear at one stage. eight—times world champion sebastien 0gier has closed the gap to just 4.5 seconds, though. rallying's most prestigious event hasn't been won by a british driver since vic elford back in 1968. the rally ends tomorrow. that is it for now. in an hour, i

6:36 am
and it is changing. the ice is thinning four orfive metres per year. here, nature has had a huge impact. twice a day the neighbourhood would flood. every single day. so i am travelling across to the northwestern extremity of the united states, meeting people enriched by and adapting to the natural world around them. to discover how this remarkable corner of the world is shaped by nature. the emerald city. rain city. jet city.
6:37 am
seattle is a place of many things. it is grungy, tacky, and a little sticky. this eccentric outlier of the united states demands your attention. up here where fewer choose to venture, the city has been adapting and reinventing. today, technology is its lifeblood. but when the indigenous tribes first settled here, it was the abundance of nature which provided. it is quite surprising to think, walking around the city, back when it had its first non—native settlers in the 1850s, much of what we now know to be seattle was basically just forest. a huge lumber industry started, but it isn't the only aspect
6:38 am
of nature that drew people to settle here. seattle was built on the shores of the puget sound waters, and inlet from the pacific and part of the sea, from where local fishermen would bring in a catch for the market. pike place market is one of the oldest farmers markets in the us. i've been told that they are going to get me to do some of this, as well, but they are throwing it really far. how are you doing? good. we will get you dressed up to catch a fish. the fishmongers here began throwing things around the market to make it quicker to get the orders
6:39 am
across the counter. and it has become a famous tradition. it has your name on it, look at that! jason scott has been a fishmonger all his working life. you have to say tt, test toss. tt for craig. i was meant to throw that! you try it. you have to throw then you have to catch it. tt. aim for his head. he is not confident. who thinks i'm going to be able to do it? good job. cheers. applause.
6:40 am
today nature draws people to this area from around the world. and it is changing. i have come to nearby sanjuan island tojoin a whale watching tour. oh, it is beautiful out here, and i've been told there is so much other incredible wildlife. i really want to see a whale, but to be honest, i would take seeing any of it. kelly klein is the boat's on—board naturalist. kelly, what should i expect to see today? we have killer whales here year—round. any month of the year you can spot killer whales here.
6:41 am
humpbacks come here occasionally. great whales, minke whales — you never know what you will find. and i hear it is getting easier to spot because the numbers are going up? yes, for sure. humpbacks in particular, we saw an amazing rebound in the population once we banned whaling internationally. in 1966, 95% of their population was population was gone. wow. they were critically endangered and now they are of the endangered species list. while the numbers have been creeping up, recently they have shot up. absolutely. 2011 we saw an amazing rebound of the population, particularly here in the salish sea. so almost every year it has increased. and killer whale sightings have reached record numbers, too. according to the 0rca behaviour institute, 2023 march the ninth year out of the last ten where numbers have increased year. i think this is going to be our first opportunity to see something.
6:42 am
if you look over in the distance, you can see loads of other boats just like this one. and they have all sort of stopped, which, to me, can only mean one thing — they have found something in the water. and i can't wait to see what it is. ok, so we have all these boats over here, and you have a huge smile on yourface. what's happening? we just got word and i got a couple of glimpses, the killer whales are very active right now. they are hunting a sea lion. no way. it is the largest species of sea lion in the world so when they take them down it is quite an incredible fight because they do fight back. so we have killer whales here. how many? i think in total there are ten killer whales. ten killer whales. and they are hunting a sea lion. as stellar sea lion. however does this happen?
6:43 am
i have never seen an active sea lion hunt. new for two of us. it is really exciting. i can see something moving underwater. there is definitely blow thatjust came up. blowing right there. oh my gosh. this is really special. we had two separate families in here travelling together. are they working together? oh, yes, definitely. they have amazing synchronicity. they are very well co—ordinated. they are pack hunters, so they work together. everybody gets a little bite. five — five in a row, did you see?
6:44 am
they are extremely matriarchal. so the oldest female is the leader. mum is in charge making sure that everybody gets fed. it sounds a lot like my family. mum is in charge making sure that everybody gets fed. it sounds a lot like my family. yes. there is a lot of parallels between us human beings and killer whales for sure. this is pretty special. i find most things exciting and brilliant, but how many people would have seen this — ten killer whales taking on one sea lion? and i have front row seats. go on, sea lion! i'm rooting for you! but the natural world has influenced this area much more than just
6:45 am
as a habitat for wildlife and a draw for tourists. i'd heard that it had actually change the foundations of seattle. to find out how, we need to go down there. hey, mike! hey. tour guide mike daugherty works for beneath the streets, which helps unveil the city's hidden past. can't wait for this, mike. can't wait forthis, mike. is can't wait for this, mike. is it everything you've dreamt of and more? i genuinely feel like this could be some sort of weird setting for a horribly... yeah, it is. what we're looking at here is where on the old sidewalk level here. we are outside the first floor — the first floor, not the basement — of the sherman building.
6:46 am
we are under the sidewalk. we are surrounded by a giant wall. there is a huge retaining wall that goes entirely around this block. this wall is six feet thick. there are dozens of these was in this neighbourhood. that's a small one. why did people go to so much effort to build this? it's pretty ridiculous but when seattle was founded, that it was a logging town. that's what we were doing, right, for many years. the old mill was down the street. this entire neighbourhood was built at sea level. across the street from a 600—foot—deep harbour. now, you are going to have a problem at high tide. twice a day, the whole neighbourhood flooded. they had one thing in mind — get the logs down the hill, out to the mill and into the water, and ship them down to san francisco. the solution to the flooding came after the great fire of 1889 destroyed much of the city. they began rebuilding a level higher, creating walls around existing buildings to support
6:47 am
the new raised sidewalks. they built a giant retaining wall around every block in the neighbourhood. butjust imagine that. so, while they are doing this — because it is taking a while — you come out of the first floor of the building, stand on the sidewalk, i can't walk across the street now, because there is wall in front of me. now the road is up there. the road is up there. totally. is this the only part of this? no, dozens of these, all of the neighbourhood. let's go see some more. cool. i am well u- let's go see some more. cool. i am well up for— let's go see some more. cool. i am well up for that. _ let's go see some more. cool. i am well up for that. watch _ let's go see some more. cool. i am well up for that. watch your - let's go see some more. cool. i am well up for that. watch your step i let's go see some more. cool. i am j well up for that. watch your step on the pavers- — the vast project involved removing earth from the higher areas of the city to then raise it down at sea level. eventually, shop owners abandoned their old ground floors to move up a level, leaving some of seattle with a not entirely forgotten underground world. there are no rats in here? no, not anymore.
6:48 am
rats are the thing i am afraid of the most. there were legal businesses don't here in the 1970s. there was a hassle on down there. —— there was a hair salon down there. there was a flower shop around the corner. lots of different places. they are all gone now. i don't think i would come here for a hair cut but it is good to know. they are out of business now. it is massive. look at the space of this. how much of this was there? how far does this go across the city? there are dozens of spaces. the entire neighbourhood is like swiss cheese. there are over 20 square blocks. a block is maybe a quarter mile long or something like that. wow. maybe a little less. every single block is surrounded in this entire neighbourhood. every sidewalk you walk on in this neighbourhood is hollow underneath. i bet there are some stories from here. good, but also some not so good. people started having illegal businesses in the underground. there were opening dens,
6:49 am
gambling dens, prostitution. what was that? that's water, isn't it, in the pipes? what was that? that's water, isn't it. in the pipes?— i told you, i hate rats! i told you, man. there are no rats. you are safe with me. there are no rats. a lot of seedy stuff happening. did people live down here? people moved and live down here. there is room, they could do it now. i would not move down here. i wanted to do it when i first got the job and they told me there is plenty of room, they could do it now. i would not move down here. i wanted to do it when i first got the job and they told me they would try to get people clearly there is a lot of the service as well. amazing. let's have a pint. in the years since the underground was developed, a lot has changed for seattle, and one of its most iconic features today is the space needle.
6:50 am
it has recently undergone a $100 million makeover, including the world's first rotating glass floor. ok, i can do this. it was built in the 1960s for the world's fair, when all eyes were on an up—and—coming global city. seattle is a place that has undergone multiple transformations. it'as been called a boom and bust city and arguably, its biggest boom came about as a result of the natural world again which revolutionised the place with the gold rush. at the turn of the 19th century, the population in this place doubled in just ten years as it billed itself as the gateway to the goldfields up north in canada and alaska. it's the biggest state in the union, bigger than texas and california combined. and just like those early gold
6:51 am
prospectors, myjourney takes me 1000 miles north of seattle, to alaska's state capitaljuneau. but with just around 30,000 residents, it still feels like a town not vastly changed from its gold rush roots. i think he's coming right now — is this him? so, i have come to meet local hobbyists gold prospector ray to get a little dose of the gold fever which is still here, if you know where to look. ray? good morning! are you qasa? you want to see some gold today? glad to meet you, thank you. let's go! welcome to juneau, alaska! you are a long way away from home. man, tell me about it!
6:52 am
so, where are the goldmines here? well, they're actually everywhere in this town and this mountain you see directly in front of us was the alaska juneau mine. back in its day, that was the third—largest low—grade ore gold mine in all of america. alaska became a destination for prospectors after the mid 1800s. by the 1890s, the klondike gold rush took hold with 100,000 people streaming up through canada and some heading on up to alaska. 0ften walking for over a year, carrying supplies on their backs, many never made it, and those who did certainly left their mark. tearing through the environment while also creating new communities. so, how much gold is
6:53 am
there still out there? 0h... there is over 100 tons of gold still left in this mountain. you're joking. no, seriously. are you exaggerating just for me? no, i'm not. do you still have those professional goldminers here injuneau? yeah, we still have goldminers right here in town. i mean, the gold's here, the treasure's here and the drive to look it's always here. this must have been such a busy place back in the day. yep. full of excitement, full of positivity, full of hope people would find gold, find treasure and have a brilliant life. isn't it? it is everybody�*s dream. it has darn sure been my dream for a long time. maybe today is the day. do you think we will be able to find some gold today? i think so. let's go. i will see you in a minute, then. yeah, i'll park. let's do this. i won't lie.
6:54 am
i am feeling really excited about this — this is like... imagine back in the day the excitement that people would've had, going out in alaska, injuneau, every single day thinking, "today is the day. "today is the day that i am going to find some gold, "today is the day i'm going to find my fortune, "change my life completely around." do i think that's going to happen to me today? let's be honest, no. it is great to sort of play that role and actually have a bit of fun with it. so, i'm really looking forward to it. ray, come here. what is this? this is a floating drag. it is basically like running a vacuum cleaner. yeah. we are separating the gold from the sand. you can see it coming through. yeah, yeah, yeah. it's not that hard to do. can i have a go? absolutely, come on over here.
6:55 am
let's do this. it looks quite low—tech. is this a diy thing? it is a diy thing, definitely. by the way, if i find, like, 15 grams of gold, do i have to share it with you? yeah! really? well, yeah, i ain't going to give it all to you. broke greedy goldmine! to be fair, i'd better share it with you, you are my ride home. yeah, because i tell you, it's going to be a long swim! laughs. i'm not swimming in this. oh, come on! so, dredging done, it's time for the moment of truth.
6:56 am
now we're coming down to the money time. it all starts and ends with a gold pan, and you've got to learn how to do it. so, what i am doing is shaking it like this. gold being the heaviest, i am hoping it will fall in this bottom corner, that bottom corner. 0k? the more you shake it, the more chance the gold will vibrate all the way to the bottom. because it is heaviest? it is the heaviest, yes. you let the water come in just like the tide and when it goes out, it'll pull the material with it. see it? once you start seeing it turned darker, the water starting to sparkle... sparkle, sparkle! there's a big piece there. then you can take it all down to the bottom again. oh, look at that! laughs you have seen it. 0h, nice! that is a lot. we got some gold!

good morning, welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and rachel burden. 0ur headlines today: donald trump is ordered to pay more than $80 million
7:00 am
in a defamation case brought by a us writer — the former president brands the verdict a "witch hunt". a big rise in the number of illegal vapes being seized at uk ports and airports — with four times more being found last year compared to 2022. we hear the stories of some of those who survived the holocaust, ahead of events around the world to remember the six millionjewish people who were murdered by the nazis. a taste of fa cup magic for a non—league side from kent. i'm with the players and staff of maidstone united, who will have the whole of cameroon behind them, when they take on championship giants ipswich town this lunchtime. good morning. it is a dry weekend for most. a bit of sunshine out there as well and it is mild. all the details shortly. it's saturday the 27th of january. our main story: donald trump has been ordered to pay more than $83 million
7:01 am
in damages — that's around £65 million — for defaming the writer e jean carroll while he was president. he had rubbished her claim that he sexually assaulted her in the 1990s. mr trump — who walked out of court during the hearing — later dismissed the verdict as ridiculous and politically motivated, and said he plans to appeal. our new york correspondent nada tawfik has the story. ejean carroll has now taken on donald trump twice in court. both times emerging victorious. last may, he was found liable for sexual abuse and defamation and ordered to pay her $5 million in damages. the second defamation trial looks set to cost him far more, $83 million. donald trump was not present when the verdict was read and earlier he stormed out of court when ejean carroll's lawyer was delivering her closing statement, arguing that the former president acted as if the law did not apply to him. afterwards he slammed
7:02 am
the verdict on social media as absolutely ridiculous and a politically motivated witch—hunt directed by president biden. we will immediately appeal. we will set aside that ridiculous jury and i just want to remind you all of one thing, i will continue with president trump to fight for everybody�*s first amendment right to speak. everybody has a right to defend themselves when they are wrongfully accused and to be able to say i did not do it! donald trump has repeatedly denied raping the former advice columnist, at a department store in the 90s. ejean carroll's lawyers submitted as evidence videos and posts, where trump continued to defame her while the trial was taking place. i have no idea who she is, where she came from. this is another scam. it is a political witch—hunt. the damages awarded to ejean carroll were far more than the $24 million she asked for. it signals that the jury agreed with her lawyers that only a very
7:03 am
large sum that would hurt donald trump financially would convince him to stop. in a statement, ejean carroll described the verdict is a victory for every woman who stands up when she has been knocked down, and a huge defeat for every bully who has tried to keep a woman down. donald trump has plenty of upcoming trials where he faces a total of 91 felony counts and the threat ofjail time but so far it has not dented his chances of becoming the republican presidential nominee, quite the opposite, it has energised his base. nada tawfik, bbc news. that is the main story from the us this morning. back here, arise in the illegal vapours. —— vapes.
7:04 am
the number of illegal vapes seized at uk ports and airports surged last year, according to figures released by uk border force. the government is expected to announce new controls on vapes, with some reports saying they're considering an outright ban on disposables. ben king has more. the number of people vaping has surged in recent years, driven by a rush of disposable vapes imported from china. but many of those are illegal because they do not meet uk regulations, like these ones are seized by regulations, like these ones seized by trading standards. figures released to the bbc after a freedom of information request, show how the number of illegal vapes seized at the uk's ports and airports has risen from less than 5000 in 2021, to just under a million in 2022, to 4.5 million in the first 10 months of last year. that's nearly 10 tonnes. i bought this vape in a shop, i bought this one online, and both of them have more than the allowed amount of nicotine—containing liquid and that means they do not meet uk regulations, they won't have been through retailer's stringent safety checks and you cannot be quite sure what is in them. last year the government allocated
7:05 am
£3 million to help sniff out illegal vapes and underage sales. an announcement on further restrictions on vapes is expected next week. perhaps even a ban on disposables. if disposables were to be banned, then the illegal market would bloom because they are such an important part of the market and already we know that border force, trading standards and customs are having problems dealing with the illegal vapes there are already so they would have a much biggerjob to do. for everyone the authorities seize, many more go undetected. getting illegal vapes off the streets will not be an easy task. ben king, bbc news. two malaysian men have been sentenced to 23 years in prison at guantanamo bay for their role in the 2002 bali bombings. more than 200 people were killed in the attacks, including 28 british people. the men will have to serve six years of the sentence, after pleading guilty and agreeing to cooperate with prosecutors. an oil tanker has been set on fire after a strike by houthi fighters off the coast of yemen.

7:27 am
in south america has been transformed by the trade in cocaine. ecuador sits between colombia and peru with a population of 17 million. it had been stable and safe. not any more. this week, 68 gang members were arrested after they stormed a hospital where a member of their gang was being treated. also, this was the moment ecuador arrested a top colombian drug trafficker. the situation's been escalating for weeks. 0n the seventh of january, a powerful drug lord known as 'fito' vanished from his jail cell. prison riots across the country followed with the military trying to contain them. but dozens of prisoners escaped, hundreds of prison staff were taken hostage. there were bombs in the capital, quito, too. and then, there was this — a local tv station was attacked by armed men live on air. days later, the man leading the investigation into that was shot dead. and in the aftermath of the tv attack, this was the assessment of ecuador�*s president.
7:28 am
translation: we are practically living in a state of— war against terrorism. these are not organised crime groups. they are terrorists. ecuador has gone from one of the safest countries in latin america to one of the deadliest. according to a leading think tank, the nation's murder rate for last year is the highest in its history, and ecuador�*s police say 80% of those murders connect to cocaine. but the drug trade in latin america is nothing new. so why is it having such an impact on ecuador now? well, first, we need to look at neighbouring colombia. it's long been one of the largest cocaine producers in the world and for years, the colombian rebel group farc controlled the drug trade there. but in 2016, farc demobilised as part of a peace deal with the colombian government. most of its members stopped their armed resistance and stepped back from the drugs trade. this created a vacuum,
7:29 am
which mexican cartels and other organised crime would fill. as well as that, with the support of the us, colombia has continued to clamp down on the drug cartels. that meant the cocaine trade was looking for somewhere that was easier to do business. it looked next door, and ecuador wasn't equipped to deal with this. ecuador has been a relatively sort of island of peace, relative island of peace, to compare it to colombia and peru, so that's meant that it's never really developed the infrastructure, the training and the material to be able to take on these sorts of existential security threats that it now faces. and ecuador�*s lack of preparation connects to its relationship with the us. back in 2007, ecuador elected rafael correa as president. he vowed to free ecuador from what he called "us imperialism". as pa rt of as part of that, the president closed a us military base. that
7:30 am
meant a sharp reduction in the monitoring of ecuador�*s waters. also in 2013, rafaelle carella suspended cooperation with the drug enforcement authority and that meant a sharp reduction in support. and also relevant here is one of ecuador�*s main exports, bananas. they're shipped in containers with many bound for the us and europe. cocaine could go in those containers too. put all of that together, farc�*s demobilisation, the clampdown in colombia, ecuador�*s disengagement with the us, a lack of security infrastructure and the established export routes for bananas, and ecuador was vulnerable when the cartels decided to make their move. over the last few years, where we've seen this escalation of violence, this sort of gradual descent or not so gradual, sometimes quite, you know, surges and outbreaks of violence. there's been numerous states of emergency, you know, 60 days, 30 days. and none of them have really sort of got to the root of the problem. president correa left office in 2017.
7:31 am
two more presidents would follow him. and then in october last year, daniel noboa was elected president on a promise to crack down on violent crime. to do that, he'd need to deal with the criminal networks operating within ecuador�*s notorious prisons, which are central to the cocaine trade. not only have they been able to operate with impunity in the prisons, they've actually expanded their activities, an indication also of a certain amount of complicity within the security forces. in other words, many prisons in ecuador are the base from which gangs co—ordinate drug trafficking, and that brings violence. hundreds of inmates are being killed. in 2021 alone, over 300 died. but so far, efforts to break that connection between the prisons and the drug trade haven't worked. there's one final factor too, the people buying the cocaine, there's one final factor too, the people buying the cocaine, because one estimate values ecuador�*s annual cocaine exports at close to $1 billion.
7:32 am
others put it higher still. and 70% of ecuador�*s cocaine exports goes to europe. the busiest cocaine route in the world starts in ecuador�*s main port and ends in belgium, from where the cocaine is distributed across the continent. as one organised crime expert puts it, "the unending demand for cocaine in europe is what is fuelling the ecuadorian drug war." and the eu accepts that europe is part of the equation. drug trafficking and organised crime linked to it are a threat to all societies, their prosperity, security and democracy. europe needs to reinforce its cooperation with partners in fight against drug trafficking in ecuador and elsewhere. all of this is having devastating consequences for ecuador, and for some, the situation is untenable. they're trying to leave. for example, in 2022, nearly 18,000 ecuadorians sought asylum in the us, five times more than the year before.
7:33 am
thousands of personal decisions with roots that reach back. in truth, the storm, which has turned ecuadorfrom one of the safest nations in latin america to one of the most violent, has been brewing for years. ecuador�*s predicament was a long time coming. it will take a long time to resolve too, because this is about supply and demand, about an inability to stop the exports, about the us and europe's voracious appetite for cocaine, and about a country ill equipped to be caught in the middle. we have been talking about traitors but there is no—one less treacherous than jurgen but there is no—one less treacherous thanjurgen klopp. the sense of loyalty to that city. he than jurgen klopp. the sense of loyalty to that city.— loyalty to that city. he has been the nine years _ loyalty to that city. he has been the nine years which _ loyalty to that city. he has been the nine years which is - loyalty to that city. he has been the nine years which is a - loyalty to that city. he has been the nine years which is a long i loyalty to that city. he has been i the nine years which is a long time in football in the premier league. but now they have this dilemma, they

7:35 am
such is his dynasty at liverpool and love for the club, after a near 9—year spell at anfield, that has brought the club five major trophies, including both the premier league and champions league titles. it could of course be more by the time he leaves. he's been explaining the thinking behind his decision to call it a day. the german says he's now 56, and just doesn't have the energy levels, to be the best version of himself in the role. with all the responsibility you have in this job and these kind of things, you have to be absolute at the top of your own game. i realised that my resources are not endless and this club especially, with the team we have, with all the super things we have in this club, this club needs on top of that a manager at his top game... not long after the shock announcement, the talk started turning to, who will replace him. well, zabi alonso appears to be an early favourite to take over. the former liverpool midfielder has legendary status at anfield, and won the champions league with the club as a player and he is currenly in charge of german side bayer leverkusen and doing well there too — they're currently top of the bundesliga and haven't lost in the league this season. brighton boss roberto de zerbi — seen here — is another prominent names with bookmakers,
7:36 am
as is tottenham's angelos postecoglou. fans of both clubs taking to social media saying, hands off our boss. liverpool assistant manager pep lijnders, appears to be ruled out though. the club says the dutchman, will be leaving anfield "to pursue his own career in management elsewhere". the fa cup holders manchester city, are through to the fifth round of this season's competition, after a controversial, late goal gave them a 1—0 win over tottenham. the moment came in the 88th minute, after kevin de bruyne's corner was touched in by nathan ake, despite spurs' protests for a foul on the keeper. after a var check the goal stood and that was city's first goal and win at spurs in six visits. the other three ties will all need replays — bristol city against nottingham forest, and chelsea versus aston villa were both goalless. only one other game, had any goals in it and that was the match between championship sides sheffield wednesday and coventry city, which finished 1—1. coventry went ahead at hillsborough just before the break— and how about this for a debut goal from new signing victor torp.
7:37 am
a torpedo, you could say, in the corner. coventry held on to that lead until six minutes from time when djeidi gassama squeezed in the equaliser, ensuring a replay. now onto the fa cup 4th round and after last night's matches, only manchester city advanced after their late winner at tottenham. well, now this lunchtime, the focus switches from the holders, to the the lowest ranked club left in the competition. non—league side maidstone united, who travel to championship club ipswich town. it's the first time the minnows from kent, have achieved this, and thanks to the journey of their manager they will have millions of new fans following the game across cameroon. he has been labouring up to this moment since he was a ten—year—old when he was growing up in west cameroon and when his father died. he vowed to honour his dad by coming to england to make it as a footballer and he did just that, going on to play for wolves in the

dry, the best of the sunshine towards the south and east with temperatures generally speaking about 8—10 or 11 degrees. about the average for the time of year. through tonight the rain will continue for a time across the far north of scotland and the winds will ease down here through tonight. clear skies down towards the south and east by perhaps not quite as cold as it was last night with temperatures staying up about two or three degrees but look at that, while the weather up there with conditions 7—9. while the weather up there with conditions 7—9 . a big area of high pressure across europe at the moment blocks whether systems or makes them very slow moving towards the north and west but we have one where the system approaching scotland as we go through into sunday but for most of us ahead of the weather front we have this milder air coming in from the south. anotherfine, dry have this milder air coming in from the south. another fine, dry day for most of us on sunday and again, some sunny spells and you notice the rain tending heavy in the west of
7:46 am
scotland into the afternoon. some is edging into northern ireland by the evening. for many of us again it's on the mild side with the sunshine not feeling too bad at all if you're out and about with temperatures 10-13. the out and about with temperatures 10—13. the rain and weather front in the far northwest of scotland will make a bit more progress south and east but as we go into monday, it will push into parts of wales and northern england and southern scotland, it is slow—moving so it will be quite a wet day for these parts. even with the cold air coming in behind it, they could be a little bit of snow, chiefly over higher ground of the southern uplands on monday, and to the southeast it is dry with some sunshine which is where the mild weather will be with temperatures 14 or 15. the colder, chillier weather towards scotland and northern ireland, the far north of england, eight or nine degrees. i tuesday, the weather front will have completely disappeared so we're looking at lots of weather around. only tuesday but most of the week.
7:47 am
one or two showers dotted around, yes, but for most of us through the week it will be dry with some sunny spells and temperatures at alljust above the average so 14 or 15. spells and temperatures at all 'ust above the average so 14 or 15. thank ou, above the average so 14 or 15. thank you. simon! — above the average so 14 or 15. thank you. simon! lt's _ above the average so 14 or 15. thank you, simon! it's 7:47 _ above the average so 14 or 15. thank you, simon! it's 7:47 am. _ now on breakfast, it's time for newswatch. this week — the bbc�*s north america editor sarah smith on the us presidential election. welcome to newswatch with me samira ahmed. coming up, there's more than eight months until voters decide coming up: there's more than eight months until voters decide on the next occupant of the white house. why have some viewers had enough of the contest already? and the peculiar challenges of reporting on one particular candidate for president. first, storm isha and storm jocelyn this week caused considerable damage to many parts of the uk with heavy
7:48 am
rain and strong winds also resulting in two deaths on sunday. here's part of the bbc�*s coverage that day. if you do come near the coast, please make sure that you air with caution. the idea is is that even when it is rough, the wind and the waves will come over and they could sweep you out to sea and it's hard in this weather to try and find anyone. so, please, if you do come down or if not, please just steer clear of the sea if you can. well, the rain is here and the strong winds have already started to arrive and the sea, it's on its way in. and the real warning is around coastal areas with large waves and debris posing a risk to life. professor lucy easthope was one of a number of viewers concerned about that juxtaposition between the rnli's warning to steer clear of the sea and the piece to camera that followed immediately. and john from cheshire recorded
7:49 am
a video with his thoughts on the matter. are those who control the bbc of the view that oral warnings cannot comprehend be comprehended by members of the public of the public unless accompanied by pictures? if so, that's a very condescending view to hold. in any event, if they held that view, there are any number of static cameras from which views of the sea can be obtained, rather than sending a camera crew and a reporter into a potentially dangerous situation. we are just wrapped up really warm and going to go home and stay — stay inside, i think. to an untutored eye, it certainly looked like a dangerous location. apart from anything else, the effect of this report was to undermine the rnli warning rather than to reinforce it. because effectively what you were saying is, well, the rnli say that it's not safe here, but look,
7:50 am
we're here and we're filming and we're interviewing people, so it can't be that bad, really. is it a case of do what we say and not what we do? well, newswatch viewers will know we have raised this issue repeatedly with bbc news over the years. we did again, putting all those points to them and this was their response: last week, we had the iowa caucuses. this week, the new hampshire primary. both of them held to start determining who the republican candidate would be in this autumn's us presidential election, and both with the same winner. donald trump is already anticipating that old generation rematch withjoe biden, completely confident he will be the republican candidate. when you step into that voting booth, you are going to be
7:51 am
signalling that we want crooked joe biden, the worst president in the history of our country, we got to get him out. donald, i love you! sarah smith, the bbc�*s north america editor there, and we'll be speaking to her in a moment. first, some of your responses to the coverage this week, starting with this from brian tickell. robin petherbridge added: and here's andrew taylor: well, sarah smithjoins us now from new hampshire. thank you so much for coming
7:52 am
on newswatch, sarah. so, this week was a primary, last week was a caucus — there's just two out of 50 state contests. we are such a long way from the election itself. has this week and last really been worth the amount of airtime that it's got, do you think? so, the particular votes that were held last week and this week are really, really important in the primary process. the iowa caucus is the first one in the country and then, the new hampshire primary, the first one where voters go to the ballot box and pick their candidate, and they get more coverage than the rest of the race. we are not going to be giving the same level of coverage to 48 other contests. not at all. these two set the tone for the election. already, the number of candidates has been winnowed down to just two who were competing in new hampshire — nikki haley and donald trump — and the outcome of these votes is it has a huge influence on who is going to become the candidate. and, essentially, the question this year is whether or not it's going to be donald trump. and these are two candidates
7:53 am
who have very, very different political outlooks, different policies — crucially on foreign policy as well. which one of them becomes the republican candidate could determine what the party's policy is on all sorts of international events. they're particularly opposed, for instance, on funding for the ukraine defences and whether or not america would continue spending money on that. so, there is — there's a sharp policy difference between the two of them that does matter beyond the united states. and is it still important to follow candidates around the country on the campaign trail these days or is more of that taking place online and on television? some voters, of course, get their information online and on television, and we reflect what's being seen there in our reporting, but it's vital, i think, to be on the ground for several reasons. so, firstly, as we move around different states, it's by being there in person as the bbc that we can talk to the voters about how they're responding to the messages that they hear from the candidates but also, how candidates appear on the campaign trail can
7:54 am
make a huge difference. i mean, ron desantis basically came undone because when people saw him in real life, they didn't think he behaved like a regular human being and they didn't much like the look of him. he's stiff and awkward and finds it difficult to communicate well with voters — things that he could gloss over in television and in his advertising but not when he was on the stump, being asked questions by people who were right there in front of him and that is, in many ways, what sank his campaign. now, when it comes to former president trump, there are some viewers here who feel he's allowed to dominate news coverage too much and that there's not enough challenge of his more dubious claims. and i wonder how you approach reporting on him? so, he dominates the republican campaign and so, he features largely in our coverage — but not to the extent that he obliterates anybody else. i mean, he is an important political force in the united states. he's reshaped american politics in many ways, completely transformed the republican party, is the clear frontrunner
7:55 am
for the republican nomination and, certainly, this far out polling suggests, you know, a very strong contender to be re—elected to the white house, so he is an important figure who needs and deserves coverage. we are careful not to take everything donald trump does and says and put it on the air. i mean, when he is making important speeches in electoral contests, of course we cover them, so we can talk about what his message is, what his policies are. the court cases in which he's embroiled are tremendously important as well because they could have a huge impact on this campaign. they could have a huge impact, basically, on whether or not if he's re—elected to the white house, he's able to govern from there or whether he'll be in prison or under house arrest. i mean, the consequences of this are enormous. so, of course, we cover those court cases as well. and often some of the statements that he makes on the steps of the court because they're a vital historical event that deserves coverage. what we don't do is put on air absolutely everything that donald trump does.
7:56 am
i mean, you might feel you see so much of him, you wonder what else he could be doing in the spare hours but he actually does do a number of events, of rallies, of different meetings, all kinds of things to talk to his supporters, which we do not put on air unless they have a genuine purpose. unless we are looking at an electoral contest or some significant point in his legal problem. so, although you might think you see a lot of him, trust me, it's not as much as you could. and sarah, in the us, about half the country support trump. in britain and europe, he's generally regarded — i think it's fair to say — far more negatively. so, in terms of impartiality, do you think about british viewers or the us electorate in your coverage? well, when it comes to impartiality, it's not ourjob to decide whether or not these people are popular and report them in one particular way or give them more or less coverage because the audience may have a favourable or unfavourable view of them. i mean, there's a wide spectrum of opinion in the united states. as you say, there are a lot of people who are very,
7:57 am
very keen on him and excited to vote for him and there are huge numbers of people who absolutely detest him. he is a very polarising figure and i'm sure that has wider spectrum in other countries, including the uk. but impartiality doesn't mean pandering to the majority view or deciding what our audience wants to hear. it means covering it totally impartially, simply saying this is what donald trump has been saying. these are the parts of it that are accurate and inaccurate. and this is the impact. we don't make a decision to to report in a favourable or unfavourable light, the things he's done are said based on how the audience might be feeling about him — that would be that would be the antithesis of impartiality. sarah smith, thank you so much. finally, we know you newswatch viewers have a real attention to detail and accuracy and one eagle—eyed viewer took exception to this piece of output on the news channel last week. keep an eye on the text in the red banner.

more being found last year compared to 2022. in sport, huge boots to fill at liverpool as the search begins for a new manager following jurgen klopp's shock announcement that he will be leaving at the end of the season. spoiler alert — the second series of traitors ended last night. what was it like to be part of it? we'll speaking to some of the finalists. good morning. it's a dry weekend for most of us. there will be a bit of sunshine out there as well and it is mild. i'll have all the details shortly. it's saturday the 27th of january. our main story. donald trump has been ordered to pay more than 83 million dollars in damages — that's around £65 million — for defaming the writer ejean carroll while he was president. he had rubbished her claim that he sexually assaulted her
8:01 am
in the 1990s. mr trump — who walked out of court during the hearing — later dismissed the verdict as ridiculous and politically motivated, and said he plans to appeal. our new york correspondent nada tawfik has the story. ejean carroll has now taken on donald trump twice in court, both times emerging victorious. last may, he was found liable for sexual abuse and defamation and ordered to pay her $5 million in damages. the second defamation trial looks set to cost him far more — $83 million. donald trump was not present when the verdict was read and earlier he stormed out of court when ejean carroll's lawyer was delivering her closing statement, arguing that the former president acted as if the law didn't apply to him. afterward, he slammed the verdict on social media as absolutely ridiculous and a politically motivated witch hunt
8:02 am
directed by president biden. we will immediately appeal. we will set aside that ridiculousjury. and ijust want to remind you all of one thing — i will continue with president trump to fight for everybody's first amendment right to speak. everybody has a right to defend themselves when they are wrongfully accused and to be able to say, "i didn't do it." donald trump has repeatedly denied raping the former advice columnist at a department store in the '90s. ejean carroll's lawyer submitted as evidence videos and posts where trump continued to defame her while the trial was taking place. i have no idea who she is, where she came from. - this is another scam. it's a political witch hunt. the damages awarded to ejean carroll were far more than the 24 million she asked for. it signals that the jury agreed with her lawyers that only a very large sum that would hurt donald trump financially would convince him to stop. in a statement, ejean carroll
8:03 am
described the verdict as a victory for every woman who stands up when she's been knocked down and a huge defeat for every bully who's tried to keep a woman down. donald trump has plenty of other upcoming trials where he faces a total of 91 felony counts and the threat ofjail time. but so far, it hasn't dented his chances of becoming the republican presidential nominee. quite the opposite. it's energised his base. nada tawfik, bbc news, new york. that is the news from the united states. let's catch up with the main news in the united kingdom. the number of illegal vapes seized at uk ports and airports surged last year, according to figures released by uk border force. the government is expected to announce new controls on vapes, with some reports saying they re
8:04 am
considering an outright ban on disposables. ben king has more. the number of people vaping has surged in recent years, driven by a rush of disposable vapes imported from china. but many of those are illegal because they don't meet uk regulations, like these ones seized by trading standards. figures released to the bbc after a freedom of information request show how the number of illegal vapes seized at the uk's ports and airports has risen from less than 5,000 in 2021 to just under a million in 2022 to 4.5 million in the first ten months of last year. that's nearly ten tonnes. i bought this vape in a shop. i bought this one online. and both of them have more than the allowed amount of nicotine—containing liquid. that means they don't meet uk regulations, they won't have been through a retailer's stringent safety checks and you can't be quite sure what's in them. last year, the government allocated £3 million to help sniff out illegal vapes and underage sales. an announcement on further restrictions on vapes is expected next week — perhaps even a ban on disposables.
8:05 am
if disposables were to be banned, then the illegal market would balloon because they're such an important part of the market. and, already we know that border force, customs, trading standards are having problems, dealing with the illegal vapes there are already, so they'd have a much biggerjob to do. for everyone the authority sees, many more go undetected. getting illegal vapes off the streets will not be an easy task. ben king, bbc news. two malaysian men have been sentenced to 23 years in prison at guantanamo bay for their role in the 2002 bali bombings. more than 200 people were killed in the attacks — including 28 british people. the men will have to serve six years of the sentence, after pleading guilty and agreeing to cooperate with prosecutors. an oil tanker has been set on fire after a strike by houthi fighters off the coast of yemen. no injuries were reported and the ship, the marlin luanda, received assistance from the us navy.

the uk and us have launched air strikes on the group in response to previous attacks. the government said britain reserves the right to respond appropriately. the head of the cia is expected to meet with officials from israel, egypt and qatar in the coming days, in an attempt to negotiate the release of hostages held by hamas, which is designated as a terrorist organisation by the uk. our correspondent mark lowen is injerusalem for us. good morning to you. talk us through what is known at this stage about these talks. what is known at this stage about these talks-— what is known at this stage about these talks. ~ :, :, :, these talks. morning. the talks are re ttortin these talks. morning. the talks are reporting to — these talks. morning. the talks are reporting to be _ these talks. morning. the talks are reporting to be starting _ these talks. morning. the talks are reporting to be starting tomorrow, | reporting to be starting tomorrow, sunday, in france. although the cia has not confirmed the date or the location. we understand they will involve the head of cia as well as egypt's intelligence agencies and top officials from qatar to try to bridge the divide and reach progress
8:07 am
on a new ceasefire. it is a sign that the wheels of diplomacy are turning again and there is renewed pressure on israel to engage with talks on a ceasefire. one of the cogs in that wheel of diplomacy was that decision by the international court ofjustice on friday to order israel to do everything within its power to stop potential genocide in gaza and to ensure more aid getting in and to stop inflammatory statements by israel's government. israel is now under renewed scrutiny, renewed pressure over its actions in gaza and i think the fact these talks are due to begin is a sign of that. we also know president biden on friday spoke to counterpart in egypt and the emir of qatar before those talks are due to begin. just explain for us, we are hearing that us funding for un refugee agency has been paused. just explain

for many others. look at the scene in london this morning with the sunrise. for most of us it will be dry with sunny spells. in the far north of scotland we had some rain moving its way through. strong winds affecting the northern isles in particular. a few showers in northern ireland and northern england but they are few and far between. for most of us it will be dry with sunny spells with temperatures round about eight to ten, maybe 11 celsius. feeling pleasant out and about. you will welcome the warmth of the sun on your skin. welcome the warmth of the sun on yourskin. stilla welcome the warmth of the sun on your skin. still a bit of rain affecting the far north of scotland. elsewhere some clear skies. not as cold as last night in the south were temperatures staying above freezing around two to 4 degrees. the milder air in the far north and west, 79 degrees in the morning. 0n air in the far north and west, 79 degrees in the morning. on sunday, a big area of high pressure over the

now, they share a growing anger. of nottingham lastjune, firstly, because the killer valdo calocane was sentenced for manslaughter — not murder — and also because he was free to roam despite a history of serious mental illness and recent episodes of violence. we, as a devastated family, have been let down by multiple agency failings and ineffectiveness. the fails from the police, the cps, the health service have resulted in the murder of my father and these two innocent students. the nhs mental health trusts have to be held accountable for their failures, along with the police. we will never come to terms with the loss of our beloved i daughter, grace, and how she lost her life. - we will look for answers - regarding missed opportunities to intervene, and prevent this horrendous crime. i if you had just done yourjobs properly, there's a very good chance my beautiful boy would be alive today. there is so much more to say and clearly serious questions regarding this case and events

8:26 am
and is the much—travelled... he's been a player, a manager and a pundit. one of football's biggest characters. unbelievable, jeff. surprise, surprise! unbelievable, jeff. you are not going to believe this. but, at the height of his fame, he started to struggle with his speech. he spent more time alone and only talked in soundbites. for a long time, he hid his illness from everyone. you don't want to believe that something is happening to you. i should have firstly told my wife and then my family. by holding it to myself and keeping it in the brain, the mental side of it was ruining my head. i read at the time you said you felt wrongfully, as you said, now, embarrassed and ashamed. yeah, i was. and that was the thing. how can a broadcaster come out and say he's got a speech problem?
8:27 am
he can't talk properly. it'll affect myjob. and i was embarrassed, ashamed. and i apologise now to everybody, who's got a speech condition. and i saw a therapist and he said, "the day you accept your condition is the day you start healing." and it was so true. last year, chris went to mexico for groundbreaking medical treatment that had never been used for people with speech apraxia. it's like radiowaves into your brain. and i can honestly say, "well, you can hear now, i've got the fluency back. " maybe i haven't got the speed back. i was the guinea pig as far as apraxia is concerned, and it's obviously worked. so that's the reason why i'm going back.
8:28 am
and you're going to go back next month. yeah, hopefully in february, yeah. as you say, you've campaigned now for more — particularly children — not getting the support, the treatment they need. how important is that to you? i had loads of help to help me. i got the opportunity with my profile to help other people. so i was getting letters and e—mails, saying that we had an appointment when he was four—year—old and we've had nothing since. he's seven—year—old now. i'll start with the children first and hopefully get on to the adults later. part of that campaigning, the charity work, obviously your football career. so you get an mbe last year. what did that mean to you? yeah, well, first i didn't think i was worth it and my family told me i was.
8:29 am
and then prince william, who gave it to me, told me i was well worth it. he's an aston villa fan, but he watched soccer saturday and was as delighted to meet me as i was him, so i accepted it gracefully. so much respect for chris kamara speaking out about that particular condition. how do you manage your way through a process like divorce? it is always challenging for families. now, after consultation, the government have scrapped plans to make "mediation" mandatory for separating families in england and wales. it was previously considered as a way to reduce the backlog of cases going through the family courts. there were more than 60,000 cases in the family courts in 2022. mandatory mediation would have meant the couple would have had to sit down with a lawyer before going to court
8:30 am
to see if they could settle finances and child arrangements peacefully. instead, families who are separating will benefit from early legal advice and the continued rollout of a pilot to better support domestic abuse victims and children. we've been speaking to dr mike talbot, the chief executive of uk mediation who explained why mandatory mediation could have been difficult to implement. there is a balance to be struck between access to justice, making sure people are afforded their rights in law when they're divorcing or separating. the second is ensuring that vulnerable parties are protected and that a weaker party is not strong—armed into making an agreement that they otherwise wouldn't make. and the third thing really is the empowerment that can come through mediation. and in mediation, parties get to decide their own settlement terms and come up with an agreement, an agreement often created which suits them, and their property, finances and children. i think we've seen this u—turn. the government has decided they should give greater primacy to the need to vulnerable parties.
8:31 am
we'rejoined now byjo edwards who is a mediation specialist from the family lawyers organisation resolution. good morning to you. you would think on the face of it, trying to encourage mediation is a good thing but obviously this is fraught with problems for some couples? to be clear, resolution _ problems for some couples? to be clear, resolution is _ problems for some couples? to be clear, resolution is supportive - problems for some couples? to be clear, resolution is supportive of i clear, resolution is supportive of mediation — clear, resolution is supportive of mediation and we have lots of mediation and we have lots of mediation among our members and i'm a niedialor_ mediation among our members and i'm a mediator myself but what was difficult — a mediator myself but what was difficult about the proposal of mandatory mediation is partly mediation is fundamentally a voluntary process, there was a significant _ voluntary process, there was a significant concern about victims of domestic— significant concern about victims of domestic abuse feeling forced into a situation _ domestic abuse feeling forced into a situation that wasn't supportive of them. _ situation that wasn't supportive of them. and — situation that wasn't supportive of them, and the longevity of the agreement, if it was reached in circumstances people felt forced

the fa cup holders manchester city are through to the fifth round of this season's competition after a controversial late goal gave them a 1—0 win over tottenham. the moment came in the 88th minute after kevin de bruyne's corner was touched in by nathan ake despite spurs' protests for a foul on the keeper. after a var check the goal stood and that was city's first goal and win at spurs in six visits. the other three ties will all need replays — bristol city against nottingham forest, and chelsea versus aston villa were both goalless. only one other game, had any goals in it and that was the match between championship sides sheffield wednesday and coventry city, which finished 1-1. coventry went ahead at hillsborough just before the break and how about this for a debut goal from new signing victor torp? coventry held on to that lead until six minutes from time when djeidi gersarma, squeezed in the equaliser, ensuring a replay. after a league match between the two teams last weekend, a man was arrested on suspicion of racially abusing the coventry player kasey palmer, and so the coventry players, took a knee, side by side, before the match in

a display of unity against racism. there were a few boos from the crowd but also widespread applause at hillsborough. england have been on a rescue mission, but it has been looking bleak for them in first test against india in hyderabad. the hosts showed their batting prowess, as they made 436 all out. so a big lead over england who remember managed 246 in theirfirst innings and in the second innings, it's been an uphill battle with five wickets tumbling, and joe root out for two and england still behind and heading it seems for defeat potentially on day three of this opening test. alfie hewitt has lost the men's wheelchair singles final at the australian open to japanese player tokito 0da. hewitt had been attempting to defend his title in australia after lifting the singles trophy for the first time last year but lost in straight sets.
8:42 am
however, hewitt will still leave melbourne with silverware as he and partner gordon reid were crowned men s doubles champions for a fifth successive time yesterday. he's now 17 and luke littler has cruised into the quarter—finals of the dutch masters against one of the home favourites, dirk van divenboder. the performance was farfrom his best but he finished in style with a 150 checkout. he'll face world champion, luke humphries, next in a repeat of the world championship final. and it was a clean sheet for the world number one as humphries raced to a 6—0 win overjermaine wattimena. britain's lando norris has signed a contract extension with mclaren which will keep him at the team "until at least the end of 2026". he made it onto the podium six times last season and finished sixth in the standings. norris had also been linked
