it's 1am in london and 8am in the morning in singapore. south korean military officials say north korea has fired an unidentified missile, which reportedly landed in the sea ofjapan — inside the country's exclusive economic zone. it's thought to have been fired from near the north korean coastal city of wonsan. japan has strongly condemned the launch. president trump has been notified of the move, while south korea's new president, moonjae—in, has called a meeting of the national security council to assess the latest event as tensions remain high on the korean peninsula. the bbc‘s steve evans has more from seoul. condemnation clearly. the national security council in south korea is going to meet. really, it's like groundhog day. this is the third missile since the new president took over here in south korea. it is a missile launch a week. the significant thing is that he came to power, promising a softer approach, saying dialogue was the way of defusing

the situation and does not appear to have had any response from the north apart from continued missile tests. if you were looking at his incoming administration, offering a more hopeful way, there does not appear to have been any favourable response from the north. what we now know is that north korea is getting much, much better at launching missiles. these missiles are medium—range. they are not missiles capable of reaching the continental mainland united states but they can reach clearly the whole of this region. japan, south korea, and probably american bases in the western pacific. they are getting better at solid fuel. that means you can launch them much faster. that matters because that diminishes the warning time, if you like, and makes

the world a much more dangerous place. so, all the signs are that north korea is making significant progress in its ability to launch missiles. three tests in three weeks, all of them successful. they're clearly ironing out the previous glitches. three tests in three weeks. this'll be a huge challenge for the new president. that is right. he came to power, offering this more conciliatory approach and has got no response at all. and, what do you think the international community can do next? we have seen the trump administration posturing. what next in this particular stand—off? we are getting a rhetoric which you can almost roll out every time, condemnation, sanctions will be tighter. you are right. what next? there are voices within this country who say you have to accept

that north korea is on the verge of becoming a nuclear power, so you do a deal to give it money, if it will take the money in return for conrolling the arsenal. president trump, initially, when he came into office, his administration was making sounds about military action. there is a dilemma. do you rely on sanctions in china, just like previous presidents have done? do you say it will be military action with a lot of monetary people around you saying, if you do that, it is the second korean war which will board up on a world war with china sucked in?

angela merkel said europeans had to ta ke angela merkel said europeans had to take their destiny into their own hands. week, europeans, must really ta ke hands. week, europeans, must really take our fate into our own hands, hands. week, europeans, must really take ourfate into our own hands, of course in friendship with the united states of america and also with other countries, even with russia. but we have to know that we must fight for our own future on our own, for our destiny as a european foot of that is what i want to do together with you. also making news today... police have been carrying out more raids in manchester in the last few hours,

following monday's bombing in which 22 people died. earlier this afternoon police searched a property in moss side and made another arrest. there are now 13 people held in custody on suspicion of terror offences. two searches are also under way at properties in rusholme and gorton. more than a dozen people being questioned and a dozen locations being searched. they are continuing to ask people for help in identifying cctv footage and giving more information about the bomb themselves. beyond that they have released an unusual statement thanking people for kindness and support. that goes for the wedding had been treating strangers, as well as where they have been treating emergency services. a real sense of solidarity. a statue of the ancient greek goddess ofjustice has been re—erected in bangladesh, less than two days after it was taken down because of ha rdline islamist pressure. but it's been placed in a much less prominent position, by the annexe building of the supreme court rather than on the court's front plaza.

myanmar‘s ultra—nationalist ma ba tha movement has announced that it is changing its name, days after buddhist authorities banned the network, which has been accused of stoking islamophobia. the group said it would now be known as the buddha dhamma philanthropy foundation. the previous name ma ba tha translates as "the association for the protection of race and religion". and japan has a history maker. takuma sato has become the first person from his country to win the indianapolis 500. he took the lead with just five laps to go of the 200 to deny the brazilian helio castroneves a record equalling fourth win. sato, who spent seven seasos as a formula one driver before switching, called the win unbelievable. he even kissed the ground. russia has launched its first

post—soviet mainline commercial aircraft. it has just completed its major and it has just completed its maiden flight and will be going head—to—head with the boeing 737. russia is keen to reduce in a industrial production as it feels a squeeze on western sanctions industrial production as it feels a squeeze on western sanctions over ukraine. let's go to the philippines, where government troops are battling to retake the southern city of marawi from rebels linked to the so—called islamic state group. while many residents have fled the city, 2000 civilians are believed to be trapped in the city. at least 19 civilians have been killed, the bodies discovered by advancing soldiers. 0ur southeast asia correspondent jonathan head with the latest. they are trying to move forward and

reca ptu re they are trying to move forward and recapture parts of marawi. they have to be careful and slow. the insurgents are well armed. they positioned snipers in buildings across the city. at times, the government has used air strikes to try to dislodge them. unknown until recently, over the past year, this group has proved effective in fighting the philippines military custody has links to jihadis militants in neighbouring countries and counts itself an ally of the so—called islamic state in syria. these people fled the fighting this weekend. most of the population of marawi has already been displaced. some of them watched as insurgents took over their city. it was terrifying, said this woman. they we re terrifying, said this woman. they were so young terrifying, said this woman. they were s0 young and s0 terrifying, said this woman. they were so young and so heavily armed. the death toll is rising. not all casualties of battle. the bodies of eight men were found here, thrown

from the road into a ravine. they had been shot in the head, their hands tied. the group of unlucky workers who the police believe ran into an insurgent checkpoint at night. thousands more of the residents of marawi do not know when they can go home. this is an embarrassment for the president. he had promised to bring peace to the island. he has now declared martial law. 0ther presidents for a have talked as tough only to see their plans flounder in the convoluted conflict, which has lasted close to half a century. i've been speaking to richard javad heydarian. he's a political scientist and writer and works at the de la salle university in manila. without a question, this is the latest kind of revival of extremism

and violence. what makes it extremely troubling is reports coming from the ground, from the philippine military, suggesting foreign fighters tied to isis were also named as islamic state now among those who laid the siege and clashes in marawi. there is a concern right now that an isis branch in south—east asia is very much on the horizon. that is what is extremely troubling. the other thing of course is there are also concerns that this violence will be used to declare martial law, not only in affected areas but across the country. all of a sudden the philippines is dealing with the spectre of isis and other things as well. martial law reminds everyone

of the leadership of former dictator president marcos. tell us, how embarrassing is this for the president, seeing as he is from the region. first of all you have to caught a high—profile visit to russia. you have to cut that short. there are clashes and operations which were launched by the isis affiliated groups in the villa —— philippines. it came shortly after the philippines army had arrayed. also it is acknowledged as the emir of isis in south asia and the philippines. it is a lot of pressure. he promised to get the peace process right. he almost

obsessively focused on the war on drugs and the association with communist rebels. he could be partly to blame for this. right now people are giving him the benefit of the doubt. these measures are necessary to bring the situation under control. british airways passengers have suffered a second day of chaos and disruption as the airline struggled to restore service following a major it failure on saturday. more than one—third of flights departing from london heathrow were cancelled on sunday, leaving many passengers stranded. joe lynam reports. for some ba customers, it had been a long and uncomfortable night. bleary passengers this morning still hoping to catch their plane. even free bottles of water in a heavily congested terminal five failed to call some people's mood. a lot of moving around and standing in lines and lack of information. i think it is too big they do not know what to

do about it. we have been in the line for five hours. we have no idea how much longer we will be here. there is no communication with the staff. sarah and herfamily is no communication with the staff. sarah and her family should is no communication with the staff. sarah and herfamily should be on holiday in budapest. instead she is stuck having lunch in a pub near heathrow. she found out the flight was cancelled. we only travel based on the fact our flight was running. we were told to make sure all flights were running before we left home. we did that. you have come from? we have come from all further in worcestershire and my sister and herfamily have in worcestershire and my sister and her family have come from kent. i like this untroubled here by train from naples after spending hours on a plane yesterday that never took off. we have been booked on a flight from here to barcelona and barcelona to london. our barcelona flight has been delayed for an hour. we have 30 minutes to get the connecting flight

ina hope minutes to get the connecting flight in a hope we get back to london tonight, otherwise we wait two days. as thousands of people waited in a packed heathrow, dozens of flights we re packed heathrow, dozens of flights were cancelled and many more will not depart as the airlines struggled to reset its global network after a major powerfailure. that, for some aviation insiders, it is inexcusable. what seems remarkable as there was no back—up system kicking in within minutes of the whole system failing. businesses of this size need systems backed up all the time was that is what passengers expect and rely on. confusion still abounds. some passengers have been told their flight is cancelled online get the exact opposite message when they call the airline to confirm. this problem looks set to confirm. this problem looks set to persist forfar to confirm. this problem looks set to persist for far more than just a few hours. you are watching newsday. no can do.

date with the papers. there have been arrests following the bombings in jakarta there have been arrests following the bombings injakarta last week. a dozen people were also injured in the attack which took place at a bus stop in wednesday. what more do we know behind the arrests? the indonesian police are questioning a number of other people. these three people were arrested in raids late last week. they raided the home of a 30—year—old man they believed was one of the suicide bombers. members of his family are also being questioned. police say they found religious material, as well as some basic weapons in the home. now the so—called islamic state, through their news agency, has claimed responsibility for the attack. terrorism experts are warning it is very unlikely it was planned

organised outside of indonesia and the links between people in syria or iraq and indonesia are very loose and communication is difficult. despite the fact that thinking has been done within indonesia itself, there have been lots of concerns about a rise in radicalism. there is indeed. when the president went to visit the site of this attack, he reiterated his concerns and demands that anti—terrorism laws in the country need to be beefed up. he drafted laws after the ja ka rta beefed up. he drafted laws after the jakarta attack at the centre of the city last year. they have been held up city last year. they have been held up in parliament. this is something the president is frustrated about. the new terrorism laws would widen the definition of terrorism to include hate speech of the spreading of radical content. it would also give the police the ability to detain someone without trial for three months. in parliament there

has been fierce debate about this from politicians who fear it would be giving too much power to the indonesian security forces who have a dark history in the country of rights abuses. all right. we will leave it there. thank you. more rain is predicted in sri lanka, where the worst flooding in over a decade is taking place. the number of people known to have died in the floods has risen, to just over 150. and nearly half a million people have been forced out of their homes. we're now in a village which is inundated with floods since friday. all the homes, shops, schools, everything is under flood. all the homes, shops, schools, everything is underflood. the roads are underwater and residents alike on vote services for other supplies. families and children are seated on
