we have an exclusive report on mpox in the democratic republic of congo where 70% of cases, are in children under 10. and definitely maybe, rumours that oasis could be getting back together. now, with the sport, here's mark edwards. we begin with the sad news that former england manager sven—goran eriksson has died at the age of 76. eriksson was the first non—british manager of the england team, he led the three lions to the quarter—finals at three major tournaments during his five—year spell in charge between 2001 and 2006. the swede managed 12 clubs winning 18 trophies with spells at manchester city, leicester, roma and lazio —

where he delivered the serie a title in 2000, the last time the capital were crowned champions of italy. injanuary he said had, at best, a year to live after being diagnosed with cancer. his children lina and johan eriksson have released a statement in which they said... sven—goran eriksson who has died at the age of 76. now let's turn our

attention to the tennis. of the year, the us open, gets under way at flushing meadows in new york. novak djokovic and carlos alcaraz have been continuing their preparations. djokovic is the defending champion and comes into the tournament having won gold for serbia at the paris 0lympics. he's on the hunt for a fifth us open title and takes on moldovan world number 138 radu albot in a night session match on monday. the 2022 champion alcaraz, meanwhile, starts his campaign against australian qualifier li tu on tuesday. so first up it's djokovic, who will head into the tournament with plenty of confidence, having beaten alcaraz in that 0lympic final. i had some heartbreaking losses at the olympic games, worked very hard to try and get myself in a position to fight for gold and at 37, i thought, you know, this could be the last chance, maybe, so i had to push more than ever than i have ever done. it turned out to be one

of the best performances that i had in years, overall, throughout the entire tournament and then of course against carlos in the final. what a year its been for lydia ko. she's won golf�*s final major of the season the women's open at st andrews. just three weeks after securing olympic gold in paris, the 27—year—old has won again. she battled against lilia vu and ruoning yin all the way until the final green, but came out on top and win her third major title. i think ijust did not have the belief that one day i could win the women's open and of all the majors i have never really put myself in contention that much at this championship, so with what happened this last couple of weeks, it is almost too good to be true. you know, it is probably, i have got two glass slippers, you know, like cinderella! it has been crazy, my mother is here, my husband is here, and this is the first one that he has seen me win.

and that's all the sport for now. the united states says, it's working to avoid a further escalation in hostilities between israel and hezbollah. the white house is hoping that sunday's heavy exchange of fire across the border, won't lead to a regional war. jets destroyed thousands of hezbollah�*s rocket launchers on sunday morning. the armed group, which is backed by iran — said it had still managed to fire more than 300 rockets and drones at israel, in retaliation for the assassination of a senior commander. let's speak to marwan abdallah — head of the foreign affairs department at the lebanese kataeb party. does it feel like the region is on the brink? it does it feel like the region is on the brink?— does it feel like the region is on the brink? ., , , the brink? it does feel, every day, and it's been _ the brink? it does feel, every day, and it's been feeling _ the brink? it does feel, every day, and it's been feeling this - the brink? it does feel, every day,

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's 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. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news.

in many countries around the world today is a bank holiday. it's an opportunity to get away from work and relax. but what if your employers won't leave you alone? well, if you're in australia, you now have the �*right to disconnect�*. in most cases, employees can't be punished, for refusing to return their bosses' calls. let's speak to tania goodman, head of employment law at the collyer bristow law firm. welcome to the programme, this is a fascinating development, that is can being considered in the uk as well. in terms of the merits, what are they? in terms of the merits, what are the ? , ., , in terms of the merits, what are the ? , . , . ., in terms of the merits, what are the ? , ,, they? this has come about because durin: the they? this has come about because during the pandemic, _ they? this has come about because during the pandemic, when - they? this has come about because during the pandemic, when we - they? this has come about because | during the pandemic, when we were they? this has come about because i during the pandemic, when we were in lockdown, a lot of people were working from home, or are they couldn't possibly work. and during

that period we got used to a working hours culture, where it was expected, or where we didn't have anything else to do to be switched on all the time. uncertain expectations were set during that period. coming out of all that, we return to normal life, thank goodness, and the workforce now wants to be able to switch off from work, and not feel it has to be 20 47 connected to the office. and the legislation is catching up with that philosophy. you legislation is catching up with that --hilosoh . ., legislation is catching up with that --hilosoh. ., , legislation is catching up with that ”hilosoh . ., , ., , philosophy. you can see the obvious u side for philosophy. you can see the obvious upside for workers. _ philosophy. you can see the obvious upside for workers. what _ philosophy. you can see the obvious upside for workers. what about - philosophy. you can see the obvious upside for workers. what about the | upside for workers. what about the downsides? in upside for workers. what about the downsides? , ., ., , ., downsides? in terms of opt out, we alwa s downsides? in terms of opt out, we always have — downsides? in terms of opt out, we always have certain _ downsides? in terms of opt out, we always have certain legislation - downsides? in terms of opt out, we always have certain legislation in i always have certain legislation in place, in terms of the working time

regulations where workers are not expected to work more than a 48—hour week. there may be similar opt outs in terms of this, although the legislation is not enforced... in terms ofjobs where people are highly for paid and expected to be on call... this is not a one size fits all. it will depend on the kind of work you do and the kind of contract you have.— of work you do and the kind of contract you have. what are the sort of sanctions. — contract you have. what are the sort of sanctions, that _ contract you have. what are the sort of sanctions, that we _ contract you have. what are the sort of sanctions, that we talk _ contract you have. what are the sort of sanctions, that we talk about, - of sanctions, that we talk about, for employers which breach this? you mentioned several countries have tried this, has it worked? yes and no. tried this, has it worked? yes and n0- some — tried this, has it worked? yes and no. some countries _ tried this, has it worked? yes and no. some countries don't - tried this, has it worked? yes and no. some countries don't have - tried this, has it worked? yes and | no. some countries don't have very stringent sanctions applied. i think the most stringent is portugal where there are heavy fines applied. that isn't the case across the board,

sometimes it is more a recommendation. what is proposed in the uk is that a reconciliation service would come up with a best practice... and companies would work with their workforce to make it a policy which they could roll out across the organisation. something that employer and employee were signed up to and that way it makes the legislation not too heavy—handed, more applicable to the industry in which you work. that's more likely what we will see in the uk if and when it introduced, probably in the new year. there's growing speculation, that an 0asis reunion could be about to happen, with rumours fuelled by the gallagher brothers. the brothers have teased that an announcement may be

made tomorrow morning, posting on x with the date and time written in the style of the oasis logo. former frontman liam also dedicated a song to his brother noel, during his set at reading festival yesterday. let's speak to music journalist georgie rogers. this is fascinating and it is getting so much traction on social media. do you think it is going to happen? i media. do you think it is going to ha--en? ~ ~ �* media. do you think it is going to ha en? ~ ~ �* ., happen? i think it will. we've had 15 ears, happen? i think it will. we've had 15 years. a _ happen? i think it will. we've had 15 years. a good _ happen? i think it will. we've had 15 years, a good run _ happen? i think it will. we've had 15 years, a good run of— happen? i think it will. we've had 15 years, a good run of liam - happen? i think it will. we've had 15 years, a good run of liam andl 15 years, a good run of liam and noel doing their solo projects. we all love a bit of nostalgia. why wouldn't they do a glory lap and get back together the offers for doing this have crept up... what

you are an iconic band. when you get together and play to millions of fans who still absolutely adore the music. i think if they can get on, if it does happen, if a string of shows does happen, they'll go into the mindset of let's do this and let's do an amazing job of it. i the mindset of let's do this and let's do an amazing job of it. let's do an amazing “0b of it. i was talkin: to let's do an amazing “0b of it. i was talking to _ let's do an amazing job of it. i was talking to one music _ let's do an amazing job of it. i was talking to one music journalist - let's do an amazing job of it. i was talking to one musicjournalist that liam was working to get his voice in the best possible shape, there also that story that they're going to release the lost tapes from the original recording of the album definitely maybe. but they never really cracked the

little bit warmer than it has been through the weekend. nothing startling, but something of an improvement. as we head on over night the winds again pick up. some rain heading into further into scotland over the irish sea. for large parts of england and wales it will be dry, with some clearer skies. warmer night, the windier weather should move away quickly on tuesday. some heavy rain over dumfries and galloway for some time, but the rain does tend to ease as a head into scotland. a good part of eastern england are likely to be dry and there will be some sunshine here. it started 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, and because i weatherfront is so slow, as we move into wednesday those temperatures were beginning to rise. we got lower pressure in the north—west which will bring some showers in the wednesday particularly in scotland. there is 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, continuing to warm up, temperatures reaching 27, may be 28 degrees. that'll be the heat. eventually the front will move its way eastwards. 0nce front will move its way eastwards. once that clear through we are all going to have north—westerly winds. and that's going to bring some cooler and fresher air. temperatures are going to be lower later in the week. we are going to find on thursday some showers, for northernmost parts of the uk. in the sunshine it'll still feel quite

pleasant.
