microsoft admits friday's tech outage affected more than eight million windows devices, and there are warnings criminals might try to exploit the chaos. donald trump's due at a rally in michigan — his first such appearance since the assassination attempt on his life. and as ceremonies are held to mark the 50th anniversary of turkey's invasion of cyprus, turkey's president insists there's no point resuming peace talks. hello. i'm lauren taylor. we start this hour in the middle east, where israel says it has carried out a series of air strikes on yemen — which is controlled by the iranian—backed houthis. this video show huge fires around the port city of hodeidah. the houthi—run government in sana'a says israel struck oil storage facilities close to the coast, as well as a nearby power plant. israel's prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, said the port

was being used as an entry point for the militia to receive iranian weapons. israel said the houthis had carried out hundreds of attacks on israel in recent months, and israel responded when someone was harmed. a houthi spokesperson said there would be an "effective response" to the idf attack. the head of the idf spokesperson unit, daniel hagari, said israel was fighting a war on multiple fronts. in the area of the port, the israeli air force struck dual use infrastructure, used for terrorist activities, including energy infrastructures. israel's necessary and proportionate strikes were carried out in order to stop the houthi terror attacks. however, this threat goes beyond israel. the houthis target other countries in the middle east, the united states of america, and the world with their attacks on international shipping in the red sea.

and notjust the red sea. who is behind the houthis? one country — iran. the iranian regime funds arms and directs the hootie terror activity. israel is fighting a multi—front war against iran's aggression proxies — hamas in gaza, hezbollah in lebanon, iranian militias in syria and iraq, and the houthis in yemen. our diplomatic correspondent paul adams is in east jerusalem with the latest. this is the first time that the israelis have hit back, despite more than 200 projectiles, drones and missiles fired by the houthis in recent months in the direction of israel. now, some of those have reached israeli territory. but until yesterday, they had not really done much damage and they had not caused any casualties. i think everyone knew after that attack, that drone that landed in the heart of tel aviv

killing one israeli civilian, that an israeli response was completely inevitable. and sure enough, just within 2a hours or so, we have seen precisely that. so after months and months in which the americans and the british have been trying to deter houthi action both against israel, but also of course again shipping in the red sea, the israelis are saying, you kill one of our people and we will do this ourselves. our people and we will do this ourselves-_ our people and we will do this ourselves. , , ., ., ourselves. yes, you mentioned there have been these _ ourselves. yes, you mentioned there have been these uk _ ourselves. yes, you mentioned there have been these uk and _ ourselves. yes, you mentioned there have been these uk and us - ourselves. yes, you mentioned there have been these uk and us strikes . ourselves. yes, you mentioned therej have been these uk and us strikes in hodeidah and initially, the houthis thought this was a uk, us type strike and then it became clear it was the israelis. but how does it take the regional complication? we have had this war in gaza with various fronts, haven't we, where does it take us? we various fronts, haven't we, where does it take us?— does it take us? we have had re eated does it take us? we have had repeated reminders - does it take us? we have had repeated reminders of- does it take us? we have had repeated reminders of the .

does it take us? we have had i repeated reminders of the wider regional dimension of the conflict in gaza and it is that conflict in gaza that the houthis say they are responding to, showing solidarity with the palestinians in the gaza strip. we've seen that reflected along the northern border between israel and lebanon, where another iranian sponsored militia hezbollah and the israeli military have been engaged in sometimes very fierce battles and at times, there has been real concerned that that front will spiral out of control. you will remember back in april, we saw a whole series of tit—for—tat attacks in which the israelis attacked the iranian consulate in damascus, iran responded with a huge barrage of missiles and drones directed at israel for the first time and israel also for the first time hit back firing missiles at targets inside iran. i think we are seeing these

episodes, each time they kind of flare—up and then each side makes its point and then it seems to calm down a bit again. but we just get these regular reminders that this is a regional power struggle, in which, as israel says, it is battling iran and what it sees as iranian proxies around the region. the houthi run _ proxies around the region. the houthi run health ministry says 80 people have been wounded in those israeli strikes in yemen, according to the french press agency. next, microsoft says that the it chaos caused by a flawed update rolled out by the cybersecurity firm crowdstrike affected 8.5 million windows devices. there are warnings that cyber criminals are looking to exploit friday's global it outage, which could cause further disruption. cyber agencies in the uk

and australia are urging people to be vigilant to fake emails, calls and websites. the boss of crowdstrike — the cyber—security firm responsible — warned of "bad actors" that "will try to exploit events like this". in total, more than 9,000 flights have been cancelled since friday. here in the uk, airports, which saw severe disruption, say that systems are working again, but advised people to check before traveling. a flawed update — rolled out by crowdstrike — knocked many computers offline, hampering retail systems and healthcare, with problems for doctors and pharmacies. here's our technology editor, zoe kleinman. yesterday, the global it outage caused worldwide chaos. today, we're still dealing with the aftermath. thousands of flights were grounded, and while airports are getting back to normal, there are still many travellers who are stuck. my flight got cancelled while i was coming out of my, um, aeroplane, and i've been stranded for around over 24 hours by now, i think, um, i've been on my feet for four days by now, i think.

and no—one can really help me right now. now the children are napping. on the floor, so we had no help. so we found another flight, but it's not on the same company, and it's only tomorrow _ morning, so we have to find a room for tonight. - queues quickly built up at dover this morning, with people trying to find other ways to get abroad. the port's advice is not to arrive without a ticket. we can offer a turn—up—and—go service down here. what we do ask you to do on the busy days is please book before you come. so if you book before you come, and then we can anticipate when you're going to arrive, that helps us with everything. gps were forced to cancel appointments and some patients struggled to get hold of vital medicines. pharmacists had difficulties issuing prescriptions, including for themselves. in terms of pharmacy workload, it has impacted how the interaction

has been with patients because, obviously, those electronic prescriptions and that sort of more seamless service hasn't been available. and then personally, i've also been unable to access my electronic prescription, so i really feel for the patients because i am one of them. however, workarounds are possible for those with urgent medicine needs. they were able to take my nhs number and look me up in their system to see that i have been prescribed this before, so the pharmacist will be able to dispense it today. when i saw that it systems were down, i thought, well, i'm glad i'm not flying anywhere today, but it didn't occur to me that something like getting my prescription would be impossible. will anyone be liable for the cost of all this turmoil? the us cybersecurity firm crowdstrike has apologised for its disastrous software update, but it was only microsoft—powered computers which crashed. there's also the companies themselves who don't seem to have had back—up systems. it shows just how dependent we are on a small number of big tech companies to run our digital lives, and how vulnerable this leaves us

when something goes wrong. zoe kleinmann, bbc news. let's speak to jake moore, who is the global cybersecurity advisor for eset, europe's leading cybersecurity company. 0riginally, it was caused by a mistake, but now the criminals appear to be mistake, but now the criminals appearto bejumping on mistake, but now the criminals appear to bejumping on the bandwagon, what sort of criminal activity have you seen in relation to this and what sorts of things should we look out for? whenever there is a major— should we look out for? whenever there is a major news _ should we look out for? whenever there is a major news event, - there is a major news event, especially when technology is involved, cyber criminals are very quick reacting and jumping on these trends. in striking while the iron is hot. now, some sites have been created to look like crowdstrike, in the hope that some people come in panic and in fear trying to work around the clock, maybe —— very tired and trying to get these machines back up and running, they will be led to the sites and they can from the download this malicious software which can do a lot of

damage. even more so than what we have seen already. 50 damage. even more so than what we have seen already.— have seen already. so who do you think is most _ have seen already. so who do you think is most vulnerable - have seen already. so who do you think is most vulnerable to - have seen already. so who do you think is most vulnerable to this i think is most vulnerable to this kind of thing? 50 think is most vulnerable to this kind of thing?— think is most vulnerable to this kind of thing? think is most vulnerable to this kind of thin ? ., ., , , kind of thing? so fortunately, it is not the individual _ kind of thing? so fortunately, it is not the individual people - kind of thing? so fortunately, it is not the individual people out i kind of thing? so fortunately, it is i not the individual people out there, it is mainly businesses. so if anyone is worried about their own personal computers, they should hopefully be ok and hopefully they haven't lost too much trust in updates because updates to a tremendous amounts —— amount to secure our devices. but it is with —— businesses with crowdstrike and using windows potentially at risk. hopefully, they have been able to set those fixes now, but they all need manual updates. so it needs somebody at the computer to physically go through all of those computers to make them run again. but hopefully, that won't take too long. maybe a few more days and we should hopefully be back up and running and a lot safer now. it has highlighted _ running and a lot safer now. it has highlighted how _ running and a lot safer now. it has highlighted how interconnected the world is on the vulnerabilities are being exposed to this kind of thing. what you think should change as a result of this particular episode,

if anything?— if anything? yes, so we are so reliant on _ if anything? yes, so we are so reliant on just _ if anything? yes, so we are so reliant on just a _ if anything? yes, so we are so reliant on just a few— if anything? yes, so we are so reliant on just a few number. if anything? yes, so we are so| reliant on just a few number of if anything? yes, so we are so i reliant on just a few number of big technology firms. resilience is a wonderful thing, technology firms. resilience is a wonderfulthing, but technology firms. resilience is a wonderful thing, but of course, to make things on scale, you do have to use the same operating systems, the same computers to make them work at that scale. but it is all about the balance of making things secure, being able to be quick at fixing these problems. updates are created because we have security threats that are unknown to us. they keep them very quiet, they may know about them very quiet, they may know about them in these big technology firms. they want to make the patch, they want to fix it so those computers don't get affected by those unknown attackers and then they can send those patches out. but it comes down to making that clever balance with making sure that it is safe, but not releasing it too quickly because as we have seen, if it goes up far too quickly before it has been tested in that safe environment, it can cause absolute havoc.— absolute havoc. jake moore, thank ou ve absolute havoc. jake moore, thank you very much _ absolute havoc. jake moore, thank you very much for _ absolute havoc. jake moore, thank you very much for your— absolute havoc. jake moore, thank

you very much for your time. i absolute havoc. jake moore, thank| you very much for your time. thank ou. republican presidential nominee donald trump and his running mate, 0hio senatorjd vance, are due to hold their first rally together as a ticket in grand rapids, michigan, on saturday. it's nearly one week since a shocking assassination attempt on the former president in pennsylvania last saturday when a 20—year—old gunman opened fire, injuring mrtrump and killing one person, corey comperatore. let's speak to gary 0'donoghue, who's inside the convention centre where the rally is happening. so what can we expect from this? well, in a couple of hours' time, donald trump will take to the stage here behind me. this will be his first big rally since that attempt on his life exactly a week ago. since then, he has received the formal nomination of the republican party for the presidential run he has embarked on for the election in november. and he has also picked a vice president, so it has been a rather eventful week in american politics as you can imagine. and a lot of people have come here today

obviously because they are delighted that the assassin�*s bullet didn't find its mark and a lot of people here want to celebrate that moment. and i think all the talk we heard perhaps about unity and about a sort of new dawn in american politics, i think we have seen that pretty much evaporated in a couple of days. so what we are expecting is donald trump to play the same tunes he normally plays. immigration, crime, issues around law and order. issues around not sending money abroad. all these kind of things. and that is these kind of things. and that is the sort of thing crowds like this really want to hear. find the sort of thing crowds like this really want to hear. and michigan is a crucial swing _ really want to hear. and michigan is a crucial swing state, _ really want to hear. and michigan is a crucial swing state, isn't - really want to hear. and michigan is a crucial swing state, isn't it? i a crucial swing state, isn't it? yes, michigan is a really crucial swing state. it is part of what is called the blue wall. in other words, for years, democrats held michigan, wisconsin, pennsylvania, these rust belt states that they are called. and in 2016, donald trump

took michigan, wisconsin and pennsylvania and that is what took him to the white house. he didn't manage that in 2020, but this is a real battleground. and there are some incredibly important electoral couege some incredibly important electoral college votes here which are what you need to be elected president of the united states and joe biden has some real trouble here. notjust the trouble from the recent events and questions about his fitness to run, but also when you think about the war in gaza, michigan has a sizeable arab american population and they have been very unhappy with the way joe biden has handled the war in the middle east. so michigan is somewhere donald trump has been four times this year, joe biden has been here a number of times as well. it is a realfight here a number of times as well. it is a real fight and incredibly close in the polls. is a real fight and incredibly close in the polle— is a real fight and incredibly close in the olls. , ., ., ~ in the polls. gary o'donoghue, thank ou ve in the polls. gary o'donoghue, thank you very much _ in the polls. gary o'donoghue, thank you very much indeed _ in the polls. gary o'donoghue, thank you very much indeed and _ in the polls. gary o'donoghue, thank you very much indeed and we - in the polls. gary o'donoghue, thank you very much indeed and we hope i in the polls. gary o'donoghue, thank| you very much indeed and we hope to talk to you later when it gets under way. now time for a look at today's sport. we'll start with the closing stages of the third round of golf�*s open championship at royal troon,

where dan brown holds the overall lead at the top of the standings. he's one shot ahead of america's billy horschel. brown on 5 under. the overnight leader shane lowry has dropped off the pace — he's on two under par after four bogeys in five holes on the back nine. justin rose is part of the chasing pack. one man who had the benefit of the calmer early conditions was america's sam burns, shooting a six under par round of 65. anytime you shoot under par on this golf course, it is always good, even more so under these conditions. i think knew going out, it was gettable, most of the hole is downwind. then once you make the turn, just and buckle the chinstrap because you know it is going to be difficult. yes, overall, a really solid day.

england lead west indies by 207 runs at the close of play on day three of the second test at trent bridge. ben duckett and ollie pope built a good partnership in this second innings. duckett with an excellet knock of 76. the west indies finished their first innings, all out for a57 — leading england by a1. england finished day three on 248 for 3 — with that lead of over 200. that partnership at the end was a real crucial one for us in terms of getting a grip of the game a little bit. still certainly not in complete control because as any test match tomorrow morning, it is going to be really crucial again moving forward. but certainly that partnership in tricky conditions when it got a bit dark and they got a new ball, it was tough conditions, so the boys played really well. irate tough conditions, so the boys played reall well. ~ �* ., ., ., really well. we didn't have a target in mind, i certainly— really well. we didn't have a target in mind, i certainly didn't, - really well. we didn't have a target in mind, i certainly didn't, i - really well. we didn't have a target in mind, i certainly didn't, ijusti in mind, i certainly didn't, ijust wanted— in mind, i certainly didn't, ijust wanted to— in mind, i certainly didn't, ijust wanted to back as long as i could. i think— wanted to back as long as i could. i think we _ wanted to back as long as i could. i think we surprise a lot of people. for us, _ think we surprise a lot of people. for us, it — think we surprise a lot of people. for us, it was building a lead, which — for us, it was building a lead, which we _ for us, it was building a lead, which we did. hopefully, we got a bit more — which we did. hopefully, we got a bit more in —

which we did. hopefully, we got a bit more in the middle, but it wasn't — bit more in the middle, but it wasn't meant to be and i think 40 wasn't meant to be and i think 40 was pretty— wasn't meant to be and i think 40 was pretty good. lando norris will be hoping he can claim his second win of the season at the hungarian grand prix after claiming pole for sunday's race. the british driver claimed the third pole of his career as he led 0scar piastri to a mclaren one—two ahead of world champion max verstappen. light rain made conditions tricky with sergio perez crashing out of the opening session and yuki tsunoda also causing a red flag towards the end of qualifying. very, very happy. not an easy qualifying come in different conditions like you said. but always ending up on top. the best part of it all. so happy, especially for the team. 01 and two is even better to see, so congratulations to the team. tadej pogacar has won stage 20 of the tour de france — the penultimate stage of the race which heads to nice on sunday. pogacar retains the race lead, but was pushed all the way to the finishing line by the defending champion yonas vingego, and the slovenian will lead going into sunday's time trial, which is a break with tradition as the race won't finish

in the french capital in paris because of next week's 0lympics. the 22—time grand slam champion rafael nadal is into the final of the swedish 0pen after a three—set victory over croatia's duyay ajdukovic. the spaniard is using the clay court tournament to build up his fitness ahead of the olympic games and had a deciding—set victory over the croatian 23 year old. it's nadal�*s first atp final in over two years following time away from the sport with several injuries. the six—time snooker world champion ray reardon has passed away, at the age of 91. the former miner and police officer, turned professional in 1967. he went on to dominate the sport in the 19705 as it became popular thanks to the advent of colour television and the bbc�*s pot black competition. after retiring from playing, he became a mentor to ronnie 0'sullivan — helping him win the world title in 2004. and that's all the sport for now.

west yorkshire police are continuing to search for people involved in violent disorder in leeds on thursday. five people have already been arrested in connection with the disturbances in harehills, in which a police car was overturned and a bus set alight. the trouble began after social services investigated a child protection issue at a house. the bbc understands that the uk's independent pay review bodies will recommend an above—inflation pay rise of 5.5% for teachers and nhs staff. the figure will represent a challenge for the new government's budget this year. 0ur political correspondent charlotte rose has more. this relates to the school teachers' review body. that represents about half a million teachers, and also the nhs workers' pay review body, representing 1.3 million nhs workers, but importantly, not doctors and dentists. that is a separate pay review body and these discussions are different to the ongoing pay dispute in england with junior doctors.

the government is due to resume those negotiations next week. this is about the annual pay review settlement. but we have heard some reaction from unions this morning. the general secretary of the national education union said that a pay award is needed to stop the recruitment and retention crisis in schools. he suggested that if the government were not to meet the recommendations of the pay review body in full, then that could lead to strike action. the consequences could be a problem for the government. because at the moment, they have budgeted for around a 2% increase — of course, in line with the current levels of inflation. so if they were to find 5.5%, they would have to find an extra £1 billion to pay teachers and double that for nhs workers, and that could have a knock—on effect what other public sector

workers, whose pay review bodies we have not heard from yet. and because we know the chancellor rachel reeves has set some tight financial rules to stick to, saying she won't increase borrowing and she doesn't want to increase taxes, there are questions about where the money would come from. it looks like a challenge for the new government. turkey's president has said the reunification of cyprus is not possible, and that there is no point holding talks with that as the goal. recep tayyip erdogan was visiting the island to mark the 50th anniversary of turkey's invasion. for more on the background to all of this, i've been speaking to paul moss, europe editorfor the bbc world service. cyprus became independent in 1960, and from then on, there were awful tensions between the turkish and the greek—speaking population, and these spilled over into violence, with appalling atrocities committed on both sides. and then in 1974, cyprus announced it was actually going to join with greece. enosis, it was called. that caused a lot of fear amongst the turkish—speaking population and prompted turkey to invade 50 years ago today. they said they were doing it to protect their population. they took over one third of the island. it meant that greek speakers fled

from the turkish bit, and turkish speakers then fled from the greek bit. thousands of people lost their homes, and the island has been divided ever since. and what that means, really, is today's 50th anniversary is seen very differently by the two sides. for the greeks, it marks the moment when turkey invaded and they lost one third of the island. but for some turks, they're celebrating. they say this was the moment when the greek army appeared as liberators to protect them. and there, we're left with the status quo we have now. and what are the hopes at all of any peace negotiations? you know, the strange thing is peace negotiations have gone on almost ever since. and what's really odd is, people know what the end goal looks like, or they thought they did. the idea was to bring cyprus together as a single federal state, but with a lot of autonomy for the two sides and compensation for the people who lost their homes. in 2004, they got very close. kofi annan, the then

un secretary—general, had a plan roughly based on this, but it was put to a referendum and the greek—cypriot side rejected it. now, today, they were on the moment of the anniversary the greek cypriot president nicolas 0tamendi, leads. he said that there was still hope that reunification could happen in that way. translation: our mission is the liberation, reunification and solution of the cyprus problem. if we really want to send a message on this tragic anniversary and really honour all those who sacrificed themselves in order for us to exist today, it is to do anything possible to reunite our homeland. well, that optimism was very quickly scotched. the turkish president, recep tayyip erdogan, is considered a nationalist in his country. he has no real desire to pull out °f cypl’us, to pull his troops out of cyprus. it doesn't really fit with his nationalist agenda. and he said that as far as he was concerned, reunification, it's not going to happen. translation: we cannot get anywhere by ignoring the realities on the island.

we believe that a federal solution in cyprus is not possible. so what happens now? yeah, well, i don't think recep tayyip erdogan's comments are going to inspire anyone with optimism. and there's a new factor i haven't mentioned. a few years ago, they discovered gas off the coast of turkey, of cyprus, which means both sides now have even more interest in hanging on to what they have. there's money to be made there. at the same time, when you go to cyprus, people really do genuinely want peace. i remember sitting in a the home of a turkish man on the turkish side. it had been taken from a greek family 50 years before. he said, look, i would give this back tomorrowjust to have peace and to reunify the island. at a grass—roots level, lots of people really do want that to happen. at the same time, it does feel like the the politics is against them, i'm afraid. american singer bruce springsteen has officially reached billionaire status. according to forbes, the boss is apparently worth $1.1 billion, following a six—decade career that's seen him release 21 studio albums, seven live albums, and five eps,

parts of the uk, it's dry, but further west, it's cloudy. we've had the outbreaks of rain for quite some time now and that's how it's going to stay through the course of this evening. also quite humid in a number of areas. now, here's the satellite picture with the radar superimposed, and you can see the outbreaks of rain here, the dark blue colours indicating the heavier rain in south—western areas, through the irish sea, just about clearing northern ireland at this stage, but wet in the western isles. further east, it's dry. now, let's have a look at the picture around nine o'clock. so by this stage, most of the rain actually in the south will have fizzled out, although we have a few showers dotted around. dry in the extreme south—east, east anglia, most of lincolnshire. the thick cloud, with the persistent rain, is from around about the lake district northwards into the lowlands of scotland, much of scotland, in fact, and all the way into the northern isles. but at this stage, you can see clearer skies already in the outer hebrides. and much fresher here, 13 degrees, whereas many other eastern parts of the uk still 23. now, the forecast for tonight shows that heavier rain

moving away to the north, it sort of fizzles out, evaporates, really, in the south. and then we're left with a cloudy, muggy morning for many of us in the east. 17 in hull, about that in london. out towards the west, it's a fresher start, with some sunshine. and i think overall, sunday is not looking bad at all. there'll be sunshine in the morning in many areas, but then the clouds will bubble up. could be a few showers scattered across england and wales, scotland too, perhaps layers of thicker cloud in northern ireland earlier on, as this weather front brushes ireland here. and the temperatures — 18 in the north tomorrow, about 23 in london, and we'll start to lose some of that humidity. now, early next week, still a few weather fronts to get through. they're coming off the atlantic. the winds are mostly from the west, so they're still pretty warm. still a fair amount of humidity in the air, moisture, but really quite brisk winds, especially around some of these coasts. most of the rain will probably be further north. i think further south, it's cloudy rather than wet, and certainly some sunshine around.

temperatures, 24 degrees expected in hull. ok, let's have a look at the outlook, then. it's a bit of a mixed bag, but if you look at the temperatures, they're actually pretty much bang—on where they should be this time of the year and actually into the weekend and the following week, it's starting to settle down.

this is bbc news. the headlines... israel says it's carried out a series of air strikes on the port city of hodeidah in yemen — which is controlled

by the iran—backed houthi movement. the israel defense forces say their fighter jets struck military targets in response to hundreds of attacks on israel over recent months. microsoft says that the it chaos caused by a flawed update rolled out by the cybersecurity firm crowdstrike affected more than eight million windows devices. there are warnings that cyber criminals are looking to exploit friday's global tech outage by offering false software fixes to access computers. donald trump's due to hold his first public campaign rally since an attempt was made on his life. security will be tight at the event in grand rapids michigan after mr trump was lightly injured and one of his supporters killed at a rally in pennslyvania. now on bbc news, newscast with laura kuenssberg and paddy o'connell. newcast from the bbc.
