hello. we start this hour in the middle east. israel says it has struck a series of hezbollah targets deep inside lebanon. according to the army, terrorist infrastructure was hit, including stockpiles of weapons. it follows a deadly rocket attack on the israeli—occupied golan heights on saturday — in which at least 12 people were killed. most of the casualties were teenagers, who were playing football in the town of majdal shams. israel has blamed lebanon's hezbollah movement — it has denied responsibility. iran, meanwhile, in a statement released by its foreign office, iran has warned israel of "consequences" of attacks on lebanon. the israeli prime minister benjamin

netanyahu is cutting short his visit to the united states and has warned hezbollah will pay a heavy price. since i was updated about the disaster, i have been holding continuous security consultations and i have been directed that our return to israel be brought forward. as soon as i arrived, i will immediately convene the security cabinet. i can say that the state of israel will not let this pass in silence. well, our correspondent injerusalem, mark lowen, has been monitoring events and sent us this report. siren wails. shouting. early evening in the israeli occupied golan heights, and the warning of an incoming threat about to become deadly and dangerous. explosion. a rocket struck a football field, where children and teenagers were playing. several were killed in the deadliest strike since the cross—border fire between lebanon and israel began last october. the anguish of loved ones at young lives cut short in a conflict that could be about to escalate sharply.

siren wails. a rocket barrage which lit up the sky was claimed by the lebanese militant group, hezbollah, but it denies firing the deadly strike on to the football field. that, the israeli army spokesman says, is a lie. this attack shows the true face of hezbollah — a terrorist organisation that targets and murders children playing soccer on a saturday evening. we will act to restore full security on our northern border for all the citizens of the state of israel. and the question is how israel's government will react. benjamin netanyahu is returning early from the us to chair his security cabinet, where he'll face calls to hit back hard. as the young injured were rushed to hospital,

fear is growing that all—out war with hezbollah, a proxy of iran, could now be drawing closer. south, in gaza, the other front of this war, palestinians, too, were scrambling to save lives — this time after israeli strikes killed dozens. here, too, it's children paying the price in a nightmare with no end. the missiles tore into a school housing displaced gazans. israel says it targeted a hamas command and control centre inside. but from the rubble came those simply seeking shelter. mustafa says the blast threw him into the air and he fell to the ground. "i didn't know where to run forfear", he says. "so i fled inside the school thinking it was safe. but then i saw heads, hands and feet." the spark from the 7th of october ignited gaza and now golan. the question here is will it start an inferno? mark lowen, bbc news, jerusalem. as we said, israel says it has struck a series of hezbollah targets deep inside lebanon.

our correspondent barbara plett usher gave this update on what was being said. according to the israeli ministry — israeli defence ministry — the air force struck in seven different places in lebanon, in southern lebanon, but also further north in the beqaa, and it doesn't very often strike that far north. so that was almost certainly a message that this was a response of a different calibre. we do know, though, that the prime minister of israel is going to be convening his security cabinet later today to discuss the next steps. he has said that there is going to be a heavy price to pay for hezbollah, that this is not business as usual. so we're waiting now to find out what that exactly means. and certainly israel's western allies, the united nations, even the lebanese government, are concerned about what this could mean because, of course, this conflict has been going on for ten months —

this cross border conflict running in parallel with the gaza war against hamas, and always were fears that it could escalate into an all—out war, and that now there's concern that this could be the trigger, in fact. the un has warned that if that happens, this would engulf the entire region in a catastrophe beyond belief. do we know who was behind yesterday's strike in the golan heights yet? well, we know that israel says it was hezbollah and that it has evidence, it says that the rocket that was used could only have come from the lebanese militant movement. now, hezbollah has strongly denied that that was the case and said that this is all lies from the enemy. but, at the same time, it had earlier in the evening, or in the afternoon, it had claimed four attacks against israel, including one that it says was targeting an israeli military base that was not actually that far from the village that was hit, majdal shams.

so it's possible that a rocket could have gone astray or gone and hit a target that hezbollah was not actually aiming for, and i don't think it would have been aiming for a village like this, which is inhabited by the arab druze minority, of which there are many also in lebanon. here in the uk, new footage has emerged of an incident at manchester airport, which ended with a police officer kicking a man in the head. the cctv appears to show how three officers were trying to make arrests, when two men punched two of them to the floor. the mayor of greater manchester, andy burnham, has urged people to allow the authorities to continue their investigation. will vernon reports. and just a warning, you may find some of the scenes distressing. new footage obtained by the manchester evening news appears to show more of what happened. the police are seen trying to detain one man before another starts to punch one of the officers. the man being detained in the light

blue top also begins punching the female officers. he then appears to attack the officer holding the taser. after that, one of the female officers tasers the man. you can then see another officer kick the man in the head when the footage ends. responding to the release of the video, the mayor of greater manchester, andy burnham, said it was a complicated situation, with two sides urging people not to rush tojudgement. he said it was frustrating there wasn't more video in the public domain due to it being a live investigation. this is the footage that caused the initial controversy. no, we are no normal civilians. apparently showing an officer kicking and stamping on the head of a man lying on the ground. move up, move up! the constable seen here has been suspended from duty.

stop kicking people. the independent office for police conduct says he is subject to a criminal investigation. the full independent process has to be followed. it's clear that this is a complex, fast—moving incident, but obviously there's no justification whatsoever for what we've seen, and i think the police have made that clear. that's why this officer has been suspended. but we've got to let the independent process follow its due course. as part of their investigation, the police have opened an online portal, where members of the public can submit information or material that could help with their inquiries. shame on you. the events of last week led to protests in rochdale, with some accusing greater manchester police of being institutionally racist. but the family of the men involved have appealed for calm, warning that extremists on all sides were keen to hijack this incident for their own ends. will vernon, bbc news. venezuela is heading to the polls

in a few hours�* time in what's being seen as a pivotal presidential election. president nicolas maduro, who's been in office since 2013, is seeking a third consecutive term. he has told voters they have a choice between war and peace — and warned of a bloodbath if he loses. the opposition candidate, edmundo gonzalez, said it's time to re—establish democracy and prosperity in the country after a quarter of a century of socialist rule. iona wells reports from caracas. on sunday, venezuelans are going to the polls in the presidential elections. president maduro is seeking re—election, but the opposition feel they have real, real momentum in this campaign and, for the first time in decades, feel that there is potentially the chance of change. the opposition leader, though, maria corina machado, was banned from running as a candidate. she's been replaced with a candidate, edmundo gonzalez.

and that's a number... one of a number of ways in which the opposition has been slightly kind of deterred in their campaigns so far. for example, food stalls that have served the opposition on their campaign rallies on theirjourneys around the country have been closed down. in some cases, millions of venezuelans who live abroad have been unable to register to vote. eu election observers were disinvited by the government, so there are quite big concerns about whether or not this election will be free and fair. the last election was widely dismissed as neitherfree norfair. the economy has been in freefall for the last decade, causing millions of venezuelans to move abroad. so there is a lot at stake in this election. both the economy here in venezuela, the democratic process as well, whether this will be a free election and whether venezuela will be and its government will be recognised again by the international community, but also migration to, as i mentioned, nearly 8 million venezuelans have moved abroad, particularly, for example, to the us. and there is questions

about whether if president maduro is re—elected, that surge of migration could increase. polls are open until 6pm, so people will be voting all day. and it may be a while until we have declarations of results, both by the official electoral authorities, who are controlled by president maduro and his government, and also by the opposition, who are doing their own independent counting process in this election. they argue that they will sort of independently verify results if they feel like there has been an unfair result. they may well be trying to challenge that after the event. a devastating wildfire has ripped through bushland in northern california, forcing around 4000 residents to flee their homes. it's been described as the biggest blaze to hit the state this year and is thought to have been started deliberately. our correspondent duncan kennedy has more. it's california's biggest wildfire this year, already burning through more than 300,000 acres of land.

and it looks like some of it was started deliberately. a lot of our crews are what's doing called prepping, basically getting out ahead of the fire, um, finding those structures, communities, making sure those areas are more survivable should the fire go through. the centre of the fire is in northern california, in places like butte county, leaving homes and cars burning. . .and burned out. the same county was hit by another fire in 2018 that killed 80 people. agh! your house down there, too? and even when vehicles can move around in this cauldron of flames and smoke, the very sides of the roads are themselves on fire. in chico, brian is now sleeping out in the open, just his dog rescued from the inferno. right about the time i go out the door, i got two city pd officers at the door telling me i needed to get out. and, uh, well, i packed up what i could pack up in the car — me and the dog — and i got out.

sherry made sure she got out with all of her 12 dogs, her most precious companions, amid the other physical loss. as long as i have the dogs and they're safe, i don't really care about many material things, you know. a 42—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of starting the butte blaze by rolling a burning car into a gully. it's already too late for many properties — here, just the brick chimney is left standing. elsewhere, rows of homes are evacuated, their owners in shelters. i want to go home right now, but, uh, those things can be replaced. lives can't, pets can't. you know what i mean? that structure will be replaced eventually. a state of emergency has been declared, as around 2,500 fire crews and emergency workers try to contain what they can, when they can. in some places, that means creating fire breaks and hosing down the ground to try to stop embers building back into fires. but wind and very dry shrub are making this another

summer of destruction. duncan kennedy, bbc news. let's get some of the day's other news now. donald trump has told a bitcoin conference he'd champion cryptocurrency if he wins the presidential election — promising to make the us the crypto capital of the world. mr trump once dismissed digital currencies as a scam, but has recently sought the backing of donors from the industry. south korea's military is investigating a leak of personal information of agents assigned to an intelligence unit tasked with spying on north korea. the korea defence intelligence command, a secretive branch of the south korean military, discovered the leak about a month ago. officials have detected signs that the leaked information may have reached north korea. the us treasury secretary has announced a joint initiative with a number of south american countries to disrupt illicit activities that harm

the amazon rainforest. janet yellen said illegal mining and the smuggling of wildlife and plants generated hundreds of billions of dollars each year — with such trade often involving abuse of the us financial system. day 2 of the olympic games in paris is underway. australia were leading the medals table after the first full day of competition. this is the scene live in the city. the good news is the weather forecast says it should be sunny today. badminton, the beach volleyball, the shooting and volleyball all under way. another 13 gold medals are due to be awarded in sports including archery, mountain biking and skateboarding. but the olympics say the swimming

leg of the first triathlon training session has been cancelled because of pollution in the river seine. the decision was taken on the basis of water quality tests and officials are blaming rain in recent days. ben waterworth is the host of the off the podium podcast. he explained how recent rainy conditions are affecting the pollution levels in the river seine. yeah, it's obviously been quite wet here in paris the last couple of days. and, unfortunately, that means that they're going to struggle a little bit with that pollution. it's always been a concern. the rain here was going to make that an issue should that ever come about. so unfortunately no training. they're going to have a continued look at that, of course — the men's triathlon on tuesday. hopefully, they might be able to hit the water tomorrow for the next planned training session, because it would be a real shame to see the prospect of maybe a duathlon if they have to ultimately cancel the swimming leg of the triathlon. and it'd be very unfortunate for all the athletes, who have trained so hard for these olympics.

yeah, absolutely. the organisers are saying they're still hopeful it will go ahead. if we look ahead to today, what are you looking forward to? you touched on this. so many gold medals being decided today. i mean, in the pool, of course, we've got many more medal events. adam peaty, from a uk perspective here in australia, of course. well, i'm australian here in paris. we're very happy, of course, here on day two, so we'll be looking towards that. but one particular note from an australian perspective, jess fox, our queen of canoe, as we like to call her. she carried the flag in the opening ceremony the other night. she's an olympic champion in the ci, but she's in the k1 today — an event that she's won three medals in, previously going all the way back to london, where she took a silver — the last two bronzes. so she's never won a gold medal in the k1. so, as an australian, got to say very biased by watching that one. but so many other great events today. archery — women's team. south korea so dominant. we saw a world record broken the other day in the individual ranking round there. so there's one to keep an eye

on too because korea very dominant in the archery. and they'll be looking for another gold there today as well. yeah, i enjoy the swimming. i used to swim when i was much younger. and, adam peaty, you mentioned him there. he is hoping for a third successive gold in the men's 100m breaststroke, isn't he? yeah, he is, and it's something that i don't really like to associate too much with britain as an australian, sort of swimming — we like to think that's ours. but adam's such a great swimmer, such a great ambassador for the sport. of course, he's had a few issues over the last couple of years and just so open about those. so this would be a... almost a... i want to say, a redemption story for adam. he's been so dominant in this, it's weird to think of him having redemption, but for him to be able to climb back to the top of the podium, overcoming those demons that he's seen the last few years would be fantastic. and to join michael phelps as the only individual male swimmer to win three in a row at an olympic event, that would be absolutely stunning for adam to do that. absolutely. and, of course, talking of someone else who has won many olympic golds,

simone biles returns to the games as the artistic gymnastics is back. it is. yes, simone, just an absolute star. and, yes, she's also similarto adam. had a lot of issues that she's been so brave and public about, and just one of the absolute faces of not only the olympics, but world sports. arguably maybe the biggest female athlete on the planet, and so many eyes will be on her returning to the floor today at the olympics. the event has been sold out for so long, and i've talked to a few people here in paris, who are trying to get tickets to the event because they want to see her go out there and just do what she does best, because she seriously is just so good at what she does. and the olympics is her stage. so she's about to become an even bigger star today in that event. the international olympic committee has recognised the state of palestine since 1995 — and after more than nine months of war in gaza it has sent one of the smallest teams

to the games in paris. team members say they all know people who have been killed during the war. athletes, trainers and support staff have all been among the victims. the war has also thwarted the ambitions of some palestinians who dream of representing their people. paul adams reports from jerusalem. in gaza, it's hard to keep your dreams alive. here in tama's own olympic village, he sticks to his routine. tama's home is destroyed. he and his family have had to flee twice. last december, his coach was killed in an air strike. any faint hopes he might have had of going to paris have long since evaporated. but he is still running.

i wanted to compete with the world's best athletes, like jakob ingebrigtsen, the current world champion in the 1500m. i wanted to run alongside him, to feel what it's like to compete with the world's best. tamer had never worn spikes until a year ago but he's already represented his country twice. in china, at the asian games, he got to know other palestinian hopefuls, like the swimmer, valerie tarazi. valerie has made it to paris, days away from competing in her first olympics. born and raised in america, she comes from one of the oldest christian families in gaza — a child of the huge palestinian diaspora. the war has touched her, too. four relatives were killed early on. we had to deal with something that very few countries around the world have to deal with. for us, this is ourfriends, it's ourfamily, our team—mates, our national team members. it takes a toll on us. it seems like everyday, every week

we have people very to dying. —— very close to us dying. my little bit of struggle is nothing compared to what the women and children in gaza have to face every single day. i'm not worried about finding my next meal or finding a bottle of water, i get tojump in a pool and do what i love. so my little bit of pain is absolutely nothing compared with what they have to go through every single day. the team's headquarters are in the west bank, in the city of ramallah. diala is the chief nutritionist. from training to travel, and the endless tragedy, the war has thrown up countless challenges. it has definitely been a setback. but i think in terms of our ambitious and our plan and our willpower, it was not affected and if it was affected, anyway, it was just a way of getting us more determined. back in gaza, the city's only athletics track is a war ravaged place of refuge.

it's been months since anyone trained here. amid the date palms of deir al—balah, tamer knows his time has not yet come. he dreams of getting out, getting strong and once more running for his country. paul adams, bbc news, jerusalem. now, one of the things that people like to see at any olympics is the cauldron burning after being lit by the olympic flame during the opening ceremony. paris is no different. hundreds of people have been queuing to the see the seven metre wide cauldron, which is attached to a 30 metre tall balloon and is flying more than 60 metres in the air in gardens in the city centre. organisers say 10, people a day will be able to get a free ticket to see it up close. —— organisers say 10,000 people a day will be able to get a free ticket to see it up close. others without tickets have been trying to snap selfies with it behind. it is the first time in olympic history that it is lit up without the use of fossil fuels. the electric flame uses a0 led spotlights "to illuminate the cloud created by 200 high—pressure misting nozzles."

super excited to see it. it's so beautiful and i've never seen this type of olympic flame before, so it's really unique to paris to see. —— to paris. it's very impressive to see, it's a lot of fire underneath. and yeah, i mean, many people are here watching it. it's kind of interesting. i feel like it's really nice - because it's such a historical moment and we are here and like just passing by it — it's so it's really, really nice. i really enjoyed it. i thought it was a very unique and different way for them to kind of light the flame. and so, um, it's cool to see it in person. and a reminder, you can follow the olympics from paris across the bbc. there is a special paris 2024 section on the bbc sport website and app which will follow all of today's action. you can also find a schedule of all the events there too. now, how much would you pay for a bikini?

how about $175,000? that's how much a gold bikini worn by carrie fisher in star wars: return of thejedi has been sold for. the star wars costume is one of the most famous outfits in film history. fisher's character princess leia wore the outfit as she was chained to jabba the hutt�*s throne in the 1983 film. certainly a famous bit of memorabilia. stay with us here on bbc news. the weekend started with the more showers around. they have moved away now. forthe showers around. they have moved away now. for the next few days at least we can look forward to some dry weather and sunshine. temperatures will be rising, particularly across england and wales. the reason for the change in the weather, high pressure building across the uk. given the clear skies overnight will be chilly bursting on sunday morning. cloud will affect the far

north of scotland were otherwise there where the cloud bubbling up. not much of that really with lots of sunshine to come. the wins will be light with a southerly breeze developing. some sea breezes are possible. it will be a warmer day on sunday than it was on saturday. for many parts of england and wales temperatures will be four degrees higher than we were on saturday. the higher than we were on saturday. the high pressure is still around as we move into monday, particularly across england and wales. there is this where the front approaching north—west. the sunniest skies will be across england and wales. in scotland and northern ireland there will be more clout and breeze. the weather front bringing will be more clout and breeze. the weatherfront bringing rain. many places will be driver sunshine coming through. temperatures in scotland and northern ireland were not changed too much. we could get close to 30 degrees in the south—east on monday afternoon. generally across western parts of europe temperatures are on the rise

was to paris for the olympics as well and also across the uk. temperatures rising quickly again for england and wales on tuesday. it could be over 30 degrees in the south—east of england. not as high in scotland and northern ireland, 20, 21 quite widely. more clout. there could be sunshine. plenty of sunshine for england and wales. more cloud threatening to move from northern france across the channel may be bringing one or two showers. this is where things will change. the pressure will be falling on wednesday with heavy showers moving up wednesday with heavy showers moving up from the south, heading north overnight. then the weather will change slightly lower temperatures on thursday and friday. the start of the week will be very warm and hot in places.

this is bbc news, the headlines... israel says it has struck hezbollah targets deep inside lebanon after a rocket attack on the israeli occupied golan heights kills at least 12 people, including teenagers playing football. new video has emerged of the events leading up to a police officer kicking a man in the head — as he lay on the floor at manchester airport last week. venezuela is heading to the polls in a few hours time in what's being seen as a pivotal presidential election with president nicolas maduro seeking a third term in office.

and it's day two of the paris olympics as organisers cancel the swimming leg of the first triathlon training session due to pollution in the river seine. they are blaming recent heavy rainfall. 13 gold medals are up for grabs on sunday. you can get more on all of those stories on the bbc website or application. very good morning if you havejust joined us on bbc news. itjust turned 8.30 this morning. we are turning to politics. the former home secretary, dame priti patel, has become the first female and fifth mp to launch a bid to replace rishi sunak as the conservative leader. she said she could unite and "reinvigorate" the party, and turn it "back into a winning machine". our political correspondent helen catt reports. priti patel is the first woman to officially say she's running in this leadership contest.

a leading voice on the right of the conservative party, she was the home secretary under borisjohnson, responsible for introducing, among other things, the points based immigration system and the asylum agreement with rwanda. she talks about the importance of law and order as the backdrop for introducing other conservative policies, and launching her bid to be leader. she said it was time for the tories to put unity before personal vendetta, country before party and delivery before self—interest. she's also pitching her campaign directly at the party members who will decide who wins, saying it isn't our heroic members who failed, but politicians' distraction from public service. james cleverly, who is also a former home secretary, has already said his nomination is in. what we need to do is to make sure that we speak with one voice, that we do the serious thinking about policy, how we reduce taxes, how we protect our borders, how we defend ourselves and our allies in an increasingly dangerous and difficult world.

otherformer home office figures are standing, too, like robertjenrick, who was the immigration minister. he hasn't spoken publicly since confirming he's running. and tom tugendhat, the former security minister who says the tories need to deliver on their promises. when we don't deliver, when we don't have the trust of the british people, you know, we lead to the kind of electoral results that you've just seen. so we need to be absolutely clear eyed. we need to be absolutely at the service of the british people. and that's what i'm saying. the former work and pensions secretary, mel stride, has also confirmed his candidacy. we've substantially lost the trust of the british people and we've lost our reputation for competence. and i believe that i'm in a very good position to address those issues going forward. whether or not yet another former home secretary, suella braverman, will run is still unclear. there's also not yet been any formal announcement from the former business secretary, kemi badenoch, who is widely expected to stand. leadership hopefuls need the support of ten conservative mps to be in the race.

they've got until tomorrow afternoon to get them. helen catt, bbc news. with me is our political correspondent rajdeep sandhu. not a huge surprise pritti patel has entered the race? not a massive surprise this time round. it's the first time she is standing in a leadership, she is not standard last time, but she launched her campaign with the slogan unite to win, she is talking about unity and strength, those are the messages she wants to conserve bitmap to mps and she is talking about putting personal vendettas aside and put in the country first. she thinks conservative values are so popular and the conservative politicians failed to get those messages and those values across. she thinks if the party is more authentic about

their values and kind of bedding down into that law and order part of the issues, going back to that, going back to core conservatism, they could win the next general election. she is also interestingly courting party members a lot. in an article, she calls them heroic and want to give them more say over policies and being able to elect a party chair. that is different for the conservatives, compared to the liberal democrats or labour party. it is more centralised power in the conservative party. that will be interesting because it will be the party members that vote on the final two candidates.— party members that vote on the final two candidates. yes, the way she has -hased two candidates. yes, the way she has hased it two candidates. yes, the way she has phased it is — two candidates. yes, the way she has phased it is that _ two candidates. yes, the way she has phased it is that she _ two candidates. yes, the way she has phased it is that she is _ two candidates. yes, the way she has phased it is that she is not _ two candidates. yes, the way she has phased it is that she is not worried i phased it is that she is not worried about the mps voting on the first round, it isn't members in the end

voting. do we think there will be more people throwing their hat in the ring today and tomorrow until nominations close?— the ring today and tomorrow until nominations close? nominations close at 2.30 tomorrow. _ nominations close? nominations close at 2.30 tomorrow. they _ nominations close? nominations close at 2.30 tomorrow. they have - nominations close? nominations close at 2.30 tomorrow. they have to - nominations close? nominations close at 2.30 tomorrow. they have to have i at 2.30 tomorrow. they have to have ten mps each nominating them to get on the ballot. we are expecting a few more people to put their hat in the ring. the names we are watching, kemi badenoch, the former business secretary. she did run for leadership last time and managed to come forth after previously being known of an unknown quantity and quite new, she managed to create quite new, she managed to create quite a force for herself, enter into the cabinet and build up a reputation for herself. she is seen as a darling of the right side of the party, quite popular with the barb d. there is another another

home secretary, quite a few out of the cabinet coming forward, swell a brother meant, it is —— suella bradden inman. —— suella braverman. it has been compared to how mps vote. there is slight difference in how mps vote on party members vote. there is a long process to get to the final two and get to the party member voting. the result will get to the party member voting. tue: result will be get to the party member voting. tte: result will be in november, november the 2nd is the date will find out the 2nd is the date will find out the new leader.— the new leader. thank you for “oininu the new leader. thank you for joining us _ the new leader. thank you for joining us in — the new leader. thank you for joining us in the _ the new leader. thank you for joining us in the studio. - let's get more now on an incident at manchester airport last week and new footage has emerged which ended with a police officer kicking a man in the head.

the cctv appears to show how three officers were trying to make arrests, when two men punched two of them to the floor. speaking to ben boulos on bbc breakfast, the mayor of greater manchester, andy burnham, has urged people to allow the authorities to continue their investigation. well, it is an extremely difficult situation, but at least this morning it has moved forward a degree because people now have a fuller picture. and it confirms what i said last week, which is that this is a situation that escalated very quickly. it's a very violent situation, issues on both sides. the key now is that we allow the two investigations, the two parallel investigations to complete their work. so there is one investigation ongoing into a number of assaults. and that is a police investigation for people who are on police bail.

and there is a second investigation into police conduct. so it's really important now, you know, lots of people have had their say on this very complicated situation in recent days. we understand that. but it's now important that we we go forward from here with those two investigations. so all of the right actions can be taken as a result. it's an absolutely fair point to allow the investigation to run its course. but people want answers. there are tensions as a result of this. when will we know? when will the investigation give us answers as to what happened? so i do understand that frustration. and i felt it to a degree, because when you have footage that is subject to a potential criminal trial, it can'tjust be put out into the public domain. but, you know, the world in which we live is that some video emerges and other video can't be released. it's obviously a really complicated situation, but, you know, you can't put a timeline on these things.

these are careful considerations that have to be made. about the whole incident. you know, looking at the whole thing start to finish and then the rightjudgements made as to the accountability for what happened. but as the mayor overseeing greater manchester police, have you been given a steer? have you asked for it? is it days, weeks? months? just a rough timeline. well, i've said as quickly as possible. obviously, given the huge interest in the whole issue, and, you know, i think everyone could see that there is a public interest in that, but you can't really put a timeline on investigations. they take as long as they they take. at least now there is a fuller picture. as i said at the start, in the public domain. and it is, as i was saying last week, much more complicated than was first made out.

you know, we live in a world where something appears, a fragment, and everybody rushes to judgement and then another fragment, and then everybody makes a judgement on that. it's very difficult. but now we should now accept that there are two parallel investigations. they've got to be allowed to complete their work, and then a line eventually will be able to be drawn. but as i say, there are serious issues here to be investigated on both sides. do you think the anger within the community and the public backlash that we saw initially would have been as intense, had people seen this latest footage and knew that it wasn't isolated — what they had seen initially? well, yes. and i suppose if the whole picture had been put out straight away, it would have enabled people to make a judgement, a more rounded judgement. but as i say, it's not as easy as that. because sometimes footage will be used in a later trial, potentially. and it can'tjust be put out

because that can have an impact on any potential proceedings. so, it's why in this social media age, we are kind of living now with situations where, you know, a partial picture is presented and everyone takes a sort of, if you like, a side about that, you know, a very kind of absolute position one way or another. and that's what we often see now. life is more complicated, isn't it? the truth often lies in between. and i did say that last week. and i did also say to people, look, be careful. this isn't as simple as it looks. you know, time is needed here. there is a very complicated situation that has issues for all those involved. and, you know, to some degree, i think some people heard that. but, you know, here we are. we are where we are. i think at least we've got that fuller picture this morning. let's allow the investigators to do their work and then bring the right actions as a result of those investigations. mr burnham, you mentioned the social media impact. and there is a danger that

in the absence of verified factual information in that vacuum, rumour speculation fills the void, isn't there? is that in your mind as this investigation, as you say, takes an unknown amount of time? yes, it certainly is. i think there's learning for everybody from this because this is a phenomenon of our times, isn't it? that video will emerge from whichever source, but it will go out there and everyone then becomes a, you know, an expert on it and says, "oh, i know exactly." "and this is it," and makes a sort of absolutely sort of unequivocal judgement on the back of it. but, you know, life, as ijust said a moment ago, isn't like that. the risk is, of course, you get consequences from thosejudgements and that that furore that builds and that can have impact in communities, it can have an impact on public order.

the thing i would say is politicians really shouldn't be part of that, you know, that rush tojudgement. but we have seen that this week on both sides of this and those people in positions of responsibility. and i, in my view, shouldn't be adding to the sort of clamour and the hype about around an incident. so i do think we have to learn from this and, you know, from our side as well. everybody has to step back and and learn from this. these situations can be quite dangerous. you know, people's careers are on the line in these situations. ithink, you know, we all feel for the police officers who were who were injured as a result of what happened. and, you know, there's a whole lot of stuff that kind of comes together. and it's really important, i think, learning from this that we, you know, we do it better the next time. it's not possible always for all of the video by everything to be in the public domain

because of the nature of criminal investigations. but somehow i think certainly politicians need to lead from the front in not adding to the public furore. the mayor of greater manchester andy burnham. 13 gold medals are due to be awarded on the second day of competition at the paris olympics. swimmer adam peaty is hoping for a third successive gold in the 100m breast—stroke. it follows a strong start for team gb — securing two medals on the opening day of the games, asjoe lynsky reports. great olympic moments on the first days of the metals. for team gb, this statistic is their best since 1980. a silver and bronze are the first steps to the target. by the end, they want at least 58 more. few seem destined as the one for adam peaty. tonight, he could join a sports elite club. he goes in the hundred metre breaststroke. he won his semifinal and now could win gold

for the third games in a row. oh, look at that. very good indeed. it is going to be an absolute privilege to be out there. we are both going through and i am loving it again. i saw a beautiful little shot of your son. don't be talking about my son, it makes me cry. he goes, "daddy, are you the fastest boy?" laughter. that is what he says. even if i had not seen him for two weeks, that is all he cares about, i guess. british success came in weather they were used to. on the streets, they postponed their skateboarding event. on the roads, it made for a time trial on a tight rope. 32 kilometre race against rain. for some, four years of work slipped away on the cobbles. oh, everybody is crashing. but britain's anna henderson went for control. as a junior, she raised in slalom skiing and this year on the bike, she has broken her collarbone twice. in these conditions, just to cross the line was brave. the time was good enough for britain's first silver medal. it is a super cycling silver for great britain, for anna henderson! grace brown of australia won gold

by more than 90 seconds. but henderson's career high had come about through caution. yeah, i was a bit grounded in the corners, but that paid off in the straights. and, yes, i can't believe it, i burst into tears when i found out. all the effort seems to be worth it. achieve a goal like this is unbelievable. in the men's race, josh tarling finished two seconds of a bronze. he lost time when he changed his bike for repairs. cruelly, the puncture meant he missed out on the podium. but, britain's divers were right end of the twist. jasmine and scarlett moved into the medals when they took their last guide, but everybody expected australia to go past them. io! anything can happen in diving. every team score would have put them in bronze, but on the left of the screen, slip on the board. their

agony brought team gb history. bronze and a medal in a women's diving event, the first time since 1960. , ., ., ., ., ., 1960. the girls have not had a medal in so many years. — 1960. the girls have not had a medal in so many years, so _ 1960. the girls have not had a medal in so many years, so coming - 1960. the girls have not had a medal in so many years, so coming in - in so many years, so coming in today, we really wanted to put our best performance in and show what we can do and to come away with the first medalfor so long in can do and to come away with the first medal for so long in women's diving is incredible. this first medal for so long in women's diving is incredible.— diving is incredible. this start of the name diving is incredible. this start of the game bought _ diving is incredible. this start of the game bought the _ diving is incredible. this start of the game bought the house - diving is incredible. this start of the game bought the house a i diving is incredible. this start of - the game bought the house a lasting moment cheering since the rugby world cup, this man has learn to play sevens. nine months of work has gone into this. france had not qualified in tokyo for the sport and in fiji, they beat the reigning champions. the first gold for france, the captain's

greatest gamble and left with no regrets. oursports greatest gamble and left with no regrets. our sports correspondent is at the arena as excitement builds ahead of their women's gymnastic arena and possible further medals for team gb. excitement in the air here as these funds in the arena get their first glimpse of simone. she is a global star, sabin olympic medal to a name, four of them gold, but remember there was a time that we did not know if simone would appear again we did not know if simone would appearagain in the we did not know if simone would appear again in the olympics after tokyo, she withdrew from the events after contracting a mental block called the twisties. she took two years of competition after that to

focus on her mental health. she is calling better redemption tour. she is back competing. she will certainly receive an awful lot of support yet. first up in qualification as team gb. they have been hampered by injuries coming into the game, but hope to make it safely through to their team and individualfinals. so much going on. elsewhere, tonight adam pt goes for the final in the 100 metre breaststroke. remember, he has going for his first—rate olympic gold medal in the event. he obliterated the field in tokyo and rio, but because of issues he had in his personal life, injuries and personal problems coming into these games, it is quite not the foregone conclusion as it has been in the past. but he did qualify fastest. he looks very confident and there is a lot of excitement around team gb for that race. and we are going to see andy

murray in first—round action in the men's doubles. years playing alongside dan evans. he has four olympic medals to his name, two of them gold and this is his final tournament before heading retirement and putting the curtain down on a glittering clear that career. katie in a rather loud arena there. coverage over the bbc one. traditionally thejudo programme comes early in the games. later in the week emma reid will make her olympc debut. she's one of the in—form athletes after securing her qualification when she won bronze at the world championships. with her parents both heavily involved in the sport, she first set foot on the mat aged just five. 2a years later, she has high hopes for a medal in paris asjonathon park reports: and that's when you can shuffle, when you want to squeeze them onto you, and you flip them over.

and try and get your legs onto this side. as mother—daughter relationships go, the reids are pretty tight. although something's changed in recent years. i think she's noticed, like, obviously we used to fight from when i was ten years old, almost, so it's kind of like she's suddenly saying, i can't handle it anymore. like, you've gotten too strong and everything. no surprise with emma soon to be a fully fledged olympian, thanks in part to mum leslie and dad ian, who passed on their love for the sport. we never imagined that she would... well, that wasn't our ambition to create an olympic champion. it was just she was doing sport and enjoying it and it just was a natural progression to be honest. emma rubberstamped her olympic spot thanks to bronze at the recent world championships in abu dhabi. seconds from losing, she somehow got out of this hold to turn the tables on her french opponent and win a medal. she is a world class player, so she caught me kind of early stages, off guard and then held me down

and i kind of looked at the clock thinking, "i've got to do something here, you need to get out." and i managed to get out of the hold down and hold her down. and then the next time i stood up, i was winning the bronze medal. so it was great. so i dragged you into the limelight by making you do this. so yeah, thanks for that. this media piece. but, yeah, it was a nice article on how we went from when i was five years old until now. a sport like judo needs as much coverage as it can get. and there's no greater spotlight than the olympics or the paralympics. which visually impaired mum lesley was training for back in 2012. i was approached to have my eyesight tested because people knew- that i had a visual impairment. they said i was - eligible so i started. and for two years, i trained with the paralympic squad, which was fantastic experience. - i loved it, really. i won a couple of world medals and then i turned out i was right all along. | i wasn't eligible. well, whisper it quietly,

because otherwise emma will have me on the tatami. but at the age of 29, she's relatively old to get to her first olympic games. but there's a good reason, because she focussed on her studies to start with, and that was a first class honours degree in event management up in coventry. and then the idea was to go into judo full time, which she did. then covid hit, which put her back a bit. but she's on the road to paris and that's all that matters for a first olympic games. very soon, emma will throw down the gauntlet to her rivals in paris. of course, mum and dad will be there. they wouldn't miss it for the world. rugby league's kevin sinfield says he's committed to 3 more challenges to raise money for mnd charities in honour of his friend rob burrow, who died last month. the former leeds rhinos captain and now england coach was at the university of leeds to receive an honorary degree, as amy garcia reports. i'm honoured to present to you for the degree of doctor of laws, honoris causa, kevin sinfield. kevin, congratulations.

what does this honorary degree mean to you? thank you. ijust think it's incredibly humbling to be here today to share in a special day with so many people who have worked so hard. and being amongst so many people who are graduating and with their family and friends, and it's such an important day for them. so, yeah, ifeel very humble. looks great to be back in leeds. you're a lad from the other side of the pennines, but yorkshire, leeds in particular is really special to you, isn't it? less yorkshire, more leeds. rob inspired me to be a better person, a betterfriend, to be more kind, to think of others. by doing this, amazing things happen. life becomes so much more fulfilling and special. that beautiful speech, it was very much about love and friendship, wasn't it? i played in a team for a long time where medals and trophies were so important. but now we're finished,

it's the memories and the friendships that are what we all hold the dearest. and to make the most of the special moments we have with people we love and care about, and to cherish those moments. rob has been a huge part of my life. when you think we played together for so long, and then how close we became over the last four and a half years. and i spoke about him today. i think his impact across the uk, throughout the mnd community will never be forgotten. together, you and rob raised over 15 million for mnd charities. you always said that you were just helping out a mate. the challenges, the fund raising, does that continue now? yeah, probably more so than ever. the challenge is to, you know, i've committed to another three, you know, probably first time i've said that. but it means we've done seven running challenges then. can you tell us any more about that? well, the first one is the only one that had been planned. in the next two, we'll see what happens. how will you best remember rob?

in probably the best way possible, which was that smile. obviously the stuff he did on the field was incredible, but everybody saw the bloke in the dressing room. the guy who was cracking jokes and what he's done the last four and a half years, i think for somebody to be so brave and courageous is, it just shows what a special guy he is and was. and it won't be forgotten. victoria derbyshire is up next. there is a check on the weather with matt taylor. over the next few days, it is increasingly dry weather for some weatherfor some and weather for some and it will turn heart and is south of the country. this dry dry weather has been courtesy of an area of high pressure. it is meant there is skies will be clear. cloud building up in the afternoon. still a bit more cloud, but even here, sunny spell is still possible. sunny areas are 15
