still dampening down the flames. the cause of the fire is still not clear. health workers in the democratic republic of congo say children are the worst affected by the current outbreak of mpox. and rumours of a reunion — growing speculation that oasis could be getting back together. good afternoon. the former england manager sven—goran eriksson has died at the age of 76. he had been suffering from pancreatic cancer. eriksson managed england forfive years until 2006 and led the side to the quarterfinals at three major tournaments. he also managed 12 clubs including manchester city, winning 18 trophies. prince william has described him

as a "true gentleman of the game". andy swiss looks back at his life and career. he brought a swedish cool to english football. but behind that studious surface, sven—goran eriksson's reign was anything but dull. he had made his managerial name first with gothenburg, and then with the italian side lazio, but when england appointed him as kevin keegan's replacement in 2000, it sparked a storm of controversy. england had never had a foreign coach before. but if the traditionalists were upset, eriksson was unflappable. if it's the most difficult job, i'm very happy. then it will be my biggest challenge so far in my life. and he soon silenced his critics on a famous night in munich. john motson: oh, this is getting better and better and better! - a 5—1 thrashing of germany, and suddenly eriksson seemed england's saviour.

they qualified for the 2002 world cup in dramatic fashion. beckham! yes! he's done it! the feelgood factor was back, and eriksson was the architect. but qualification was followed by frustration. england were beaten in the quarterfinals by brazil, and his passive management style was under scrutiny. come the 2004 euros, it was the same story. 0h, he's put it miles over the bar. as england again went out in the quarterfinals, the questions began to mount. by now, eriksson's private life was attracting headlines. his relationships with the italian lawyer nancy dallaglio, with the tv star ulrika johnsson, and with the faria alam, an fa employee, which prompted turmoil at the organisation. and after he told an undercover reporter he would consider quitting after the 2006 world cup, the fa announced he would leave following the tournament. england went into it with high

hopes, their team dubbed the "golden generation". but yet again, they crashed out in the quarterfinals, yet again, on penalties. eriksson later said it was the biggest disappointment of his career. i don't think england was ready to win a world cup in 2002. 2006? yes. england should have done better. and if you take all the defeats i had in my life, that was the hardest one. after leaving the england job, eriksson spent a year at manchester city, followed by a string of other clubs, including notts county. his profile meant he was never short of offers. but it is as england's groundbreaking boss that he will be best remembered — the man behind one of english football's most eventful eras. sven—goran eriksson, who has died at the age of 76. two people have been taken

to hospital and more than 100 residents evacuated after a fire engulfed a building in dagenham. the cause of the fire is not yet known but the london fire commissioner said the building had a number of known fire safety issues. here's helena wilkinson with the latest. this is the block of flats in east london, engulfed by flames at the peak of the devastating fire. more than 100 residents live here, most will have been asleep when it broke out. it must have been terrifying. the london fibre gate was called at 02.44 this morning. a major incident was declared, with a huge emergency response. 40 fire engines were sent, with 225 firefighters. the first of them were at the scene within five minutes of the call. residents have been describing the terrifying moment of what happened in the block of flats in the early hours of this morning. 0ne of flats in the early hours of this morning. one woman, who is six

drones and missiles, according to ukraine's president zelensky. at least five people have been killed. 0ur correspondent abdujalil aburasulov is in kyiv. so, can you bring us up—to—date with the information about what has happened with the strikes? we have 'ust happened with the strikes? we have just recently — happened with the strikes? we have just recently had _ happened with the strikes? we have just recently had another— happened with the strikes? we have just recently had another air - happened with the strikes? we have just recently had another air raid - just recently had another air raid siren and got the all clear sign literally 15 minutes ago. so, it just shows you that the threat of new drone and missile attacks is not over yet. and in the morning, many ukrainians woke up to the sound of explosions, and it was the defence systems engaging russian drones and missiles and trying to shut them down. and i saw mobile, anti—drone units, heavy machine guns, on a pickup truck, taking positions on the streets of kyiv. and when the air raid siren went off, a lot of

people went to bomb shelters, including underground metro stations. the initial attack took place in the early hours so i assume that not everyone managed to get into a shelter in time. at this stage, we know that at least five people have been killed in the attack, but this figure may go up throughout the day.— attack, but this figure may go up throughout the day. thank you very much. a knife amnesty and compensation scheme starts today in england and wales, encouraging people who own "zombie—style" blades and machetes to surrender them, ahead of them being banned next month. new legislation will make it an imprisonable offence to own, make, transport or sell a wide range of so—called "statement" knives that are favoured by criminal gangs. our home editor, mark easton, reports. radio: he's got a possible machete down his pants - | like a meat cleaver. yeah, received — he's been seen to put it down his pants, yeah? in greater manchester, 0peration venture targets knives on the city's streets.

reports of a man seen concealing a machete in his trousers leads officers to a residential street in salford. come here. male making off! come here! get on the floor now. get on the floor now! the suspect scales a fence, being pepper—sprayed as he flees, losing a shoe and his coat. what strikes me, this is a huge police response to a report of somebody who's got a large knife. is that typical? yeah, it will be. he's come over there. it's mainly due to how much of a high risk he is to members of the public. and the fact that he's been described as having a large machete—style meat cleaver. so, he's obviously a huge risk to members of the public. this is what's called a desert machete. as you can see, that has got a blade of over eight inches long. zombie knives, rambo knives, machetes — weapons designed

to intimidate and terrorise — can currently be legal to own because of a loophole in the law. but from the 24th of next month, new legislation comes into force, making it an imprisonable offence to possess a wide range of what are called statement weapons. and ahead of that, police are offering an amnesty with possible compensation to anyone who hands them in. this is allowing people to claim compensation for knives that are held legally at the moment, but that will become illegal at the end of september. do you think this ban will actually make any difference to the level of knife crime? without doing it, we still would have a number of knives on the street. so, yes, i think it is the right thing to do. whether the statistics say it reduces knife crime are yet to be seen. kelly brown's16—year—old son, rhamero west, was stabbed to death in south manchester in 2021. she doesn't believe the amnesty and incoming ban will be enough to prevent future knife crime tragedies. banning these knives is not

going to solve knife crime, because you can easily get a knife from the kitchen cupboard, the pound shops, anywhere. tougher sentencing? tougher sentencing. when you're getting caught with that knife. with their fearsome appearance, zombie—style knives and machetes have become status symbols among criminal gangs. before winning the election last month, laboursupported the proposed law on a ban, but they also called for more proactive intervention and investment in youth services. britain actually already has among the toughest knife crime laws in the world, and some argue that better than targeting already marginalised young people, we should be prioritising the needs and wellbeing of children. liam kotrie is a manchester lawyer who gets calls to defend young people accused of knife offences once or twice every week. locking up children simply doesn't work. we've seen that over the years. knife crime levels have stayed the same. what we need to change is supporting young people through school,

through education outside of school, and making them feel that they're part of society, and not blaming them for the problems within it. enforcement is part of the answer, a robust response to take knives off the streets. but the police would agree that what's also required are long term policies which help convince young people there's never a need to leave home with a blade. mark easton, bbc news, manchester. a 32 year—old woman is in a life—threatening condition in hospital after being stabbed at the notting hill carnival in west london. the met police said the carnival�*s family day had been "marred by unacceptable violence". two men were also stabbed at the festival on sunday — though neither sustained life—threatening injuries. no arrests have been made in relation to the three stabbings. health workers in the democratic republic of congo have told the bbc more than 70% of people being treated for mpox at their clinics are children under the age of ten. the bbc has been given exclusive access to two treatment centres

in the eastern part of the country — the epicentre of the latest mpox outbreak. 0ur africa correspondent simijolaoso has this report, filmed inside the drc for the bbc by a local camera operator. a warning, viewers may find some images distressing from the start. toddler cries. weary and in pain. two—year—old encima caught mpox from one of her five siblings, who have all had the disease. translation: this is - the first time i've seen it. when my child got sick, other parents told me it might be measles, but we started treating measles and failed. this hospital in kavumu is in south kivu, the epicentre of this new mpox crisis. it has had 800 patients sincejune. more than 70% have been children. eight have died — all under the age of five. about 100 miles away, the spring in amani's step slowly

returns after four days of free treatment at this centre in munigi neargoma. like the hospital, three—quarters of patients here have been under the age of ten. health workers told the bbc they've had up to ten new cases a day. the idp camps are overcrowded, so you see children in idp camps, they are always playing together, so they have time together. they don't really care about distance, social distance, they don't care about that. so they play together. they are always together. and you can also see like in the household, they even pass the night on the same bed. you can find three, four, five children. so that means the transmission is really present on a daily basis. these camps, in the eastern part of the democratic republic of congo, are crammed with millions who have been displaced because of an ongoing armed conflict — the perfect place for mpox

to run rampant. charity workers are trying to get ahead by teaching people about symptoms, stigma and hygiene. simijolaoso, bbc news. now, could an 0asis reunion be on the cards? as noor nanji reports, the gallagher brothers have ramped up speculation on social media that an announcement could be made tomorrow. this cryptic post on x late last night. # you gotta roll with it # you gotta take your time... # it fuelled the rumours that an 0asis reunion could finally be announced tomorrow. # cos it's all too much for me to take... # # slip inside the eye of your mind... # gigs in their hometown, manchester, as well as ten nights in london, are rumoured to be on the cards, as well as a glastonbury headline slot.

# today is gonna be the day # that they're gonna throw it back to you... # it's been 30 years since the chart topping album definitely maybe turned the gallagher brothers into stars. the pair came to symbolise the britpop era. but they've also had a fractious relationship. a string of tours fell apart over the years. after a fight in 2009, noel left the band. # the word is on the street # that the fire in your heart is out... # well, after decades of going at each other with cricket bats and fire extinguishers, loads of insults on twitter, um, it does seem extraordinary that they have reunited, but perhaps they can put aside their differences and fill the coffers. # is it my imagination # or have i finally found something worth living for? # is it definite or is it maybe? all will become clear tomorrow. noor nanji, bbc news. time for a look at the weather.

here's darren bett. good afternoon. it is a better day on the whole across the uk, most places dry with some sunshine and temperatures a bit higher than they have been over the weekend. it is drier for scotland, have been over the weekend. it is drierfor scotland, the have been over the weekend. it is drier for scotland, the far north of england and scotland than it was yesterday but there are still a few light showers around which will limit temperatures here to about 17-18. with limit temperatures here to about 17—18. with drier weather and a bit more sunshine further south, temperatures will reach 22—23. there is more cloud coming into western areas. 0vernight a southerly wind will thicken up, pushing its way into scotland and over the irish sea. for most of england and wales we will have clearer skies, temperatures about 12 degrees, so quite a warm night. for northern ireland, minimum 16 degrees here in the wind and the rain. that will soon move away i think tomorrow morning and we will get some sunshine arriving. heavy rain i

think for dumfries and galloway for a while. much of scotland turning dry right during the day, because this way will be coming further south. ahead of it, through the midlands and a good part of eastern england, it will be dry with some sunshine and it is these areas which are getting warmer tomorrow with temperatures into the mid—20s. temperatures are rising ahead of this weather front which is bringing the rain, and that will be stalling as we move into wednesday. behind that we have got lower pressure which will bring showers into northern ireland and scotland, where we could have if you heavy and thundery ones. this is where the weather front is there is not much rain on it, but it has not really moved anywhere. so, again, ahead of that, towards the south and east, temperatures continuing to rise, up to 27-28, but that temperatures continuing to rise, up to 27—28, but that is the peak of the heat, because it will be cooler everywhere by thursday. thanks, darren. and that's bbc news at one.

here in the uk, the conservatives are demanding to know who authorised a downing street pass for labour's biggest donor, despite him having no formaljob at the premises. lord waheed alli — who has donated hundreds of thousands of pounds to the party — was given a pass to number ten, but downing street say it was "temporary" and "given back several weeks ago". it's bank holiday in the uk, and if you're enjoying the late summer sunshine, or sheltering from the rain at a seaside resort— then there's a fair chance you're tucking into a fish and chips takeaway. but the deep fried delicacy has seen the biggest price increase of some of the uk's most popular takeaways, according to new figures. according to the office for national statistics, the average price for a portion of fish and chips rose more than 50% to nearly £10 in the five years tojuly , while the cost of a kebab went up 44% and pizza 30%.

hello there. for most of us it is a better day today. all that rain that we had yesterday across the northern half of the uk has moved away. there is more cloud tending to come in from the atlantic and, eventually, that will bring some more rain. we may see the cloud increasing across some western areas, but ahead of that it has been a very pleasant bank holiday monday here in warwickshire with some sunshine. these are the temperatures that we're seeing late on in the afternoon, so a little bit warmer than it has been through the weekend. nothing startling, but somewhat of an improvement. as we head overnight the winds are going to start to pick up and we start to see some rain coming into northern ireland,

heading further into scotland, and perhaps over the irish sea, as well. for large parts of england and wales it will be dry with some clearer skies. quite a warm night, particularly so where we've got that wetter, windier weather in northern ireland. that should move away, though, fairly quickly on tuesday and we'll follow that with some sunshine. some heavier rain over dumfries and galloway for a while, but the rain does tend to ease away for most of scotland because it stumbles slowly into northern england, into wales and the south—west. the midlands and a good part of eastern england are likely to be dry and there will be some sunshine here. it's starting to get a bit warmer, as well. those temperatures reaching 24 or 25 degrees ahead of the rain, which is coming in on that weather front there and because that weather front is so slow as we move into wednesday, temperatures ahead of it will continue to rise. following on from that weather front, we've got lower pressure in the north—west. that will bring some showers on wednesday into northern ireland and particularly scotland, with some heavier, thundery ones in the west. there's the weather front. you can see there's not much rain on it, but it's not really moved very far at all. so the east midlands, lincolnshire, east anglia and the south—east continuing to warm up. temperatures reaching 27, maybe 28 degrees. that's going to be the peak

of the heat, mind you, because eventually the weather front is going to move its way eastwards. in the south, there's little or no rain and not much rain further north, as well. once that clears through, we're all going to have a run of westerly winds and that's going to bring with it some cooler and fresher air. temperatures are going to be lower later on in the week. we are going to find on thursday some showers for northernmost parts of the uk, but even these move away on friday and in the sunshine further south it will still feel quite pleasant.
