10:06 pm
of the euros, after a 90th minute winner from substitute ollie watkins in a thrilling semifinal clash against the netherlands. as the game looked to be heading to extra time, the aston villa striker scored to send england into their second consecutive european championship final. dan roan is in dortmund. what a night for england. a monumental night. three years ago england lost in the final of the euros at wembley. this was simply the biggest match that they�*d played since that evening. they had a chance to make amends, a second crack at glory but the netherlands, one of the most impressive teams left in the competition, stood in their way. england haven�*t found the tournament easy but when they needed it the most, they produced their finest display. their match day march has been a standout feature of these euros and today, the biggest to date. having made the shortjourney from the dutch border,
10:07 pm
an estimated 100,000 netherlands fans, descending on dortmund and turning swathes of the city orange. both are playing well but look at the crowd. we took over dortmund. the crowd on the other side, the netherlands, great people, great time, full of energy and it'sjust amazing. in a first for their campaign, england�*s followers found themselves outnumbered but still dreaming of extending theirjourney to the final itself. # it�*s coming home. here, in one of the game�*s most iconic grounds, two footballing heavyweights about to go head to head for the right to take on spain in sunday�*s showpiece. in an atmosphere of shuddering intensity, concentration would be paramount and when declan rice was robbed, xavi simons took full advantage. the edge of the box and he�*s flashed it pastjordan pickford! having gone behind in each
10:08 pm
of the last few matches, england would have to fight back again. this time they at least had time on their side and may be some luck. harry kane claimed he had been fouled in the box by denzil dumfries. after a review, the referee finding in england�*s favour. it�*s going to be a penalty for england. kane�*s faced his fair share of criticism at these euros. the captain responding in emphatic fashion. it�*s harry kane. it's 1-1! suddenly, england were in the ascendancy. phil foden dazzled. his mazy dribble cleared off the line by dumfries. before the dutch defender turned attacker. and there�*s dumfries doing just that. in a pulsating first half, foden then going agonisingly close once again. phil foden! my word! jordan pickford�*s crucial to england�*s campaign and the goalkeeper kept the dutch at bay as they pressed after the restart. england had been subdued. until this. bukayo saka appearing to have scored a late winner but it was ruled out for offside. i—i it remained.
10:09 pm
england then making changes in a match that looked set for extra time and a nerve shredding conclusion. but in added time, substitute ollie watkins gave england the moment the dream of. and ollie watkins in the final minute! this campaign has relied on instances of individual brilliance. none more important than this. england had made history. through to their first major final overseas and now with a chance of sporting immortality. what a game, dan, whata game, dan, who is what a game, dan, who is still in dortmund. now, the spanish. absolutely, clive, yes. make no mistake, they represent the sternest challenge that england will have confronted at these heroes. they are very much the form team of the competition —— at these euros. having knocked out france they will
10:10 pm
be confident. but they will not fancy playing this england side because once again they have shown such resolve and resilience. for the third consecutive match they went behind but managed to dig deep, going to their reserves of spirit and unity and finding a way through. again, gareth southgate�*s tactics vindicated, his substitutes working. he had the courage to take off harry kane and phil foden. a wonderful performance by them in the first half but they were more subdued in the second. he made the changes when it counted and it made a difference with that wonderful moment of brilliance by ollie watkins. the kind of moment he will have dreams of throughout his relatively young career, the aston villa striker. it hasn�*t been an easy tournament for southgate. two weeks ago he was being booed and jeered by some england supporters and criticised in the harshest terms by some pundits as well but time and again his england players have fought for him
10:11 pm
and managed to find a way. in the past when they got to these stages, for instance the world cup in 1990 and in 2018 as well, southgate�*s first tournament, they failed to make that final step to the showpiece. not on this occasion. england have learned from those harsh memories during the course of southgate�*s tanya. this isn�*tjust a second successive euros final but he made a semifinal in the world cup in 2018. -- in made a semifinal in the world cup in 2018. —— in the course of southgate�*s tenure. 2018. -- in the course of southgate's tenure. 2018. -- in the course of southuate's tenure. . ~ , ., well, here, england fans watched the match with baited breath. danjohnson has more from bristol. he has flashed it pastjordan pickford. he has flashed it past jordan pickford. , ., , he has flashed it past jordan pickford. , . , ., ., pickford. this was england going behind after _ pickford. this was england going behind after only _ pickford. this was england going behind after only six _ pickford. this was england going behind after only six minutes. i pickford. this was england going l behind after only six minutes. are you hopeful? behind after only six minutes. are you hepeful?_ behind after only six minutes. are you hopeful?— behind after only six minutes. are you hopeful? you've got to be, you never know- _

10:15 pm
afternoon. quite a day for keir starmer. his first day on the international stage and alongside the seriousness, the gravity of the international picture, there is the football, so the prime minister found time to watch some of the match tonight. in fact he watched it in the company of, yes, the dutch prime minister, just as the equalising penalty went in. in the last couple of minutes, keir starmer has arrived here at the white house. he�*ll be meeting the president in the next few minutes. quite the day for the prime minister. landing on the world stage, sir keir starmer arrived here in washington, the campaign trail behind him, the red carpet in front. accompanied by his wife, victoria, a motorcade tojoin. ukraine on his mind, sleep to grab, people to meet. first up, the german chancellor, olaf scholz. grip and grin, this a few days to build personal relationships with the uk�*s closest allies.
10:16 pm
next stop, the senate to meet senior us politicians, both democrat and republican. how might this town look next year after the us presidential election? thank you, press. let's go. prime minister, good morning. he is the man seeking reassurance. ukraine�*s president zelensky. how are you? nato wants its members to spend 2% of national income on defence. most, but not all, manage it. the uk exceeds it. the new government is promising to boost defence spending to 2.5%, but not putting a time frame on it. prime minister, is president zelensky reassured that he�*s getting the help that he needs? i�*ve just had a very good meeting with president zelensky, where i made it absolutely clear that as far as the uk is concerned, the change of government makes no difference to the support that we will provide, and to use our opportunity here with our allies to make sure that that support is agreed.
10:17 pm
and to reinforce, in a sense as a message to putin, the resolve of nato — bigger now than it�*s ever been, more united than it�*s ever been, and absolutely clear—eyed about the threat of russian aggression. sir keir now has a seat at this table, the first big session beginning. the music playing, and he�*s behind you! president biden, taking a seat next to him. so, welcome to the nato summit in washington. support for ukraine is not charity. it is in our own security interest. and we will reinforce our partnerships in the pacific to push against the growing alignment of russia, china, iran and north korea. in other words, it�*s a dangerous world. the uk will begin what�*s called a strategic defence review next week to work out what is needed for our security, and part
10:18 pm
of that will be about the money required, too. but the review will take time. so what, weeks or months? no defence review, when it's grappling with such problems, can be done in weeks, but it will be done properly, it will be done at pace, and it'll give us the foundations as a new government to lead britain into the future. they call this the family photo, and a first one for a new prime minister. please look into the camera for eight seconds. enough time to get a usable picture, they hope. for the prime minister, though, those election campaign photocalls must seem rather a while ago, now, as this place beckons — the white house. chris mason, our political editor reporting from washington. meanwhile, the actor, george clooney, who�*s one of the democratic party�*s leading fundraisers, hasjoined calls forjoe biden to end his bid for a second term in the white house. the president insists he�*s staying in the race.
10:19 pm
here�*s sarah smith. the secretary—general of the north atlantic treaty organisation and the president of the united states. astride the world stage, joe biden is among friends, surrounded by his nato allies. a welcome escape from the foes inside his own party and it is familiar ground that he�*s comfortable talking about. we can and will defend every inch of nato territory and we'll do it together. george clooneyjoined joe biden at a glitzy fundraiser three weeks ago. today, he�*s urging him to step aside. saying the man who was helped off stage that night by barack obama was as diminished as the one we all witnessed at the debate. in vital swing states like pennsylvania, biden�*s losing ground and voters are losing confidence. when we saw him at the debate i was kind of floored by how confused he seemed. i will vote against trump. i would love to have
10:20 pm
another democratic nominee. but if biden is the nominee, i will have to vote for biden and we�*lljust do it. the president is known to watch this msnbc breakfast breakfast show, so that�*s where his old friend appeared to subtly suggest he should change his mind about running. it's up to the president to decide if he is going to run. we are all encouraging him to make that decision, because time is running short. do you want him to run? i want him to do whatever he decides to do. that�*s insider speakfor, "please decide to stand down." every day, the calls forjoe biden to step aside are getting louder but it�*s not inevitable that he will bow to the pressure. it is entirely his decision to make, nobody else can force him aside, and he is for now doggedly leaning onto that nomination which he believes is rightfully his. sarah smith, bbc news, washington.
10:21 pm
there�*s more on this a little later, over on newsnight. here�*s kirsty. with keir starmer and joe biden due to sit down in a few minutes�* time, we will bring you the first reaction to that summit as questions of a biden future pile up. plus, a warning over western support for ukraine. that is newsnight, half past ten, bbc two and iplayer. civilians in gaza city are being told to leave their homes and head south. the israeli army has dropped thousands of leaflets telling more than a quarter of a million people that the area remains a dangerous combat zone. further south, at least 29 palestinians were killed and dozens more wounded yesterday in an israeli air strike on a camp for displaced people. gaza�*s hamas—run health ministry says the strike was next to the gate of a nearby school, east of the city of khan younis. fergal keane�*s report does contain
10:22 pm
some distressing images. the women of the house of abu abed. they have lost a brother. mohammed was 27, trained to teach special needs children, and about to be married. translation: he was going out to call his fiancee. _ next week, the borders will open and he could go see her. hejoked, "goodbye, gaza, goodbye." mohammed was planning tojoin his future wife in egypt, her family escaped there after nine were killed in an earlier air strike — his sister—in—law, anas, blinded in one eye there. and mohammed�*s fiance, hadil. translation: up to the last minute, i was planning for him to arrive - here.
10:23 pm
we were going to stay for a while and if things improved, go back to gaza. now i don�*t know what to do. the missile was fired around 7.30 in the evening. youths playing nearby ran to help, and saw children�*s bodies, parts of bodies. the israeli military says it was targeting a hamas member allegedly involved in the october 7th massacres. in doing so, they killed 29 people. dozens more were wounded. they�*ve been bombed, displaced — from one fragile refuge to another.
10:24 pm
and there is what they have seen, and what cannot be unremembered. they lean in to stop the child struggling as shrapnel is removed from his head. pure chance the direction of the blast saved this infant. the israelis say they used precise munitions and are reviewing the circumstances of the air strike. the teacher mohammed abed was one of those buried today, by sisters still trapped in this hell, grieving for him and for what their children must endure. fergal keane, bbc news, jerusalem. the hollywood actor, alec baldwin, has arrived in new mexico for the start of his trial, over a deadly shooting on a film set
10:25 pm
almost three years ago. he�*s pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter. the cinematographer, halyna hutchins, died from a single bullet wound, fired from a gun baldwin was holding. emma vardy reports. mr baldwin, are you feeling confident? is this a fair trial? returning to new mexico, where the shooting happened, alec baldwin arrived to face a jury who will decide whether he was responsible. you were in the room when the lady... i was the one holding the gun, yeah. ok, alrighty. this was the moment police arrived on set of the western movie, rust, after a scene had gone terribly wrong. alec baldwin was the actor on set that pulled the trigger. the pistol being used by alec baldwin had fired a live round, killing the cinematographer halyna hutchins. what�*s yourjob there with them? i'm the armourer. or at least i was. the mystery of how live rounds ended up on the film set was revealed earlier this year when the film�*s armourer, hannah gutierrez, stood
10:26 pm
trial for involuntary manslaughter. it was her responsibility to ensure weapons were safe. but she had mistakenly mixed up dummy rounds with real bullets. despite the film�*s armourer being convicted and sentenced to 18 months injail, prosecutors still believe alec baldwin was also responsible. they�*re trying to prove the gun could only have been fired because of his actions. the evidence will show that someone who played make believe with a real gun and violated the cardinal rules of firearm safety is the defendant, alexander baldwin. alec baldwin claims he never pulled the trigger, and that it was the responsibility of other crew members to make sure the gun was safe. safety has to occur before the gun is placed in the actor's hands. in this case, this unique case, on a movie set, the prop gun was placed in mr baldwin's hands and "cold gun" was announced. meaning it had been checked and double check by those
10:27 pm
responsible to ensure that the gun was safe. all right. but prosecutors argue he did not follow safety protocols which could have prevented the cinematographer�*s death. this case has already cost alec baldwin. he said he has struggled to fine acting work since the incident. the movie was eventually completed last year as a tribute to halyna hutchins about her family have welcomed the charge against alec baldwin and have said they hope this trial can get to the truth of what happened. james anderson, the most successful bowler in england�*s history, began his final test match today, but it was another cricketer making his debut, who dominated play. having bowled out the west indies forjust 121 at lord�*s, england finished on 189 for three. here�*sjoe wilson. maybe james anderson didn�*t want any fuss. well, of course, this test
10:28 pm
began as his occasion. lord�*s was full of his admirers and his family. when he walked from the pavilion, his wife, parents and daughters were there to ring the bell to begin his final test match. and we�*re off. anderson opened the bowling and met some resolute west indies batting. mikyle louis representing saint kitts and nevis. a proud moment. enter gus atkinson. for him, it�*s all beginning. atkinson bowled with pace and accuracy throughout. west indies�* batting light on experience, short on practice, predictably struggled. seven wickets on his debut. gus atkinson can look back on this day with pride, even if he plays for another 21 years. well, there was time forjames anderson. jayden seales lbw, test wicket 701. the relevant part, anderson would insist, west indies 121 all out. england were soon racing along in
10:29 pm
reply, as they always do these days. ollie pope and zak crawley setting the pace. england aiming for a dominant position already. sport is always moving quick. that�*s why james anderson�*s career is so exceptional. england are already planning for the next ashes in 18 months�* time. the bowler who can help them, they believe, is gus atkinson. seven wickets and counting. joe wilson, bbc news at lord�*s. time for a look at the weather. here�*s chris. todayit today it just wouldn�*t stop raining across north—east scotland where in parts of aberdeenshire we had over 70 millimetres of rain, which means the entire quota for the month of july. now north—east scotland joins the whole swathe of southern england, parts of the midlands where we have well over our monthly allocation of rain. the rain still coming down across north—east
10:30 pm
scotland, the low pressure slow moving, loitering here. patchy rain across northern ireland, northern england, that sink southwards over night reaching wales and the north midlands. temperatures double figures for the most part, a0 celsius. tomorrow more rain across north—east scotland, the rain turning light and patchy at —— 1a celsius. then we have this tone of damp weather for northern england, across wales, the midlands, the rain turning showery as the day goes by but across southern parts of wales, a nice day with warm sunshine to look forward to an top temperatures reaching 23 degrees. the weather will feel like it should do, like july. for friday, we have pretty unsettled weather conditions working across northern france and the chance we will see rain clipping into south—east england. otherwise,
