the fourth round of brexit talks have concluded them for the first time both parties struck a reasonably positive tone. when i look across the full range of issues i think we have made look across the full range of issues ithink we have made pro look across the full range of issues i think we have made pro to progress on the issues that matter. thousands of student protesters take the streets of barcelona ahead of this weekend's vote on catalan independence. spanish authorities are stepping up effo rts spanish authorities are stepping up efforts to stop the voting going ahead. police have raided a warehouse in the centre of the city where ballot boxes are being stored. and we'll bring you details about a team of researchers in china, who say they've successfully edited the dna in human embryo to remove a potentially life threatening disease. the un secretary—general says that the violence in myanmar has become

the violence in myanmar has become the world's fastest—growing refugee emergency. as he was seeing in these words, they have confirmed at least 30 rohingya muslims have drowned because their boat capsized, all women or children. we have talked about this place a lot in recent weeks, where thousands of rohingya muslims have gone. it is in bangladesh. let me play you more of what has been said. the devastating humanitarian season is not only a breeding ground for radicalisation but it puts young people at risk of criminal elements including trafficking. we have received bone chilling accounts from those who have fled, mainly women, children and the elderly. these testimonies point to excessive violence and

serious violation of human rights including indiscriminate filing of weapons, the presence of landmines and sexual violence. this is unacceptable and must then immediately. the us ambassador to the un has been speaking. the time for well—meaning diplomatic words has passed. we must now consider action against bernese security forces who are implicated in abuses and stalking hatred among fellow citizens. the action is needed now to resolve this crisis are clear. first, the burmese python they must respect human rights and fundamental freedoms. those who have been accused of committing abuses should be removed from command responsibilities immediately and prosecuted for wrongdoing. and any country that is currently providing weapons to the bernese militantly must suspend these activities until

sufficient accountability is in place. this is our latest report. trying to keep things under control. pushing back rohingya refugees. conditions are miserable and it is muddy but they are desperate. the army has been brought in to try to instil a sense of order but increasing numbers are beginning to overwhelm them. today, the american ambassador to bangladesh are arrived at the biggest refugee camp to get a sense of the situation. many feel it is too late and the international community has been slow to react. no bangladesh are trying to limit the fallout, moving the refugees of the open land and into camps. i was here a couple of weeks ago and the entire hillside was filled with newly arrived rohingya families, just here

from bangladesh many after trekking for days. they have set up home anywhere along the hill, completely exposed to the elements. now it is amazing, not a single person a year and all you can see are signs of a hasty departure. clothes lying all around and bits of plastic sheeting from the temporary tents. in the existing campus, new arrivals have immediately registered but with the situation still volatile, many others are waiting to comment. he is trying to call his daughter and family who are still in myanmar. the village is one of a few settlements left untouched but cut off and surrounded. they will not be able to come here. they willjust be killed. i know. bangladeshis want the

rohingya to go home eventually and many would take that option if they could. our life here is that other prisoner. we are grateful for what they have done for us but we have no freedom. but there is little chance of that happening any time soon and until then the rohingyas will be forced to live here in squalid conditions. the un says a planned visit to rakhine state was cancelled by the burmese government — without reason. this is tin htar swe of bbc burmese. as far as we know, in the morning, we heard that the flight was cancelled, the trip was cancelled. we tried to contact several government officials but couldn't get through. one of the un officials

said it was suddenly abruptly cancelled without giving any reasons. now we find out that there we re reasons. now we find out that there were diplomats at the airport and they were told the weather was not good and are they ready to take the risk and fly? they decided not to 90, risk and fly? they decided not to go, so they postponed it to another day, so we don't know when they will ta ke day, so we don't know when they will take the diplomats and un officials, but that is what happened. that is what the official line is. you will forgive me for raising a sceptical eyebrow. surely this isn'tjust about the weather. that's what everybody is saying. if the weather is that bad to come other flights are not cancelled. we don't know what exactly is happening but what is interesting is that if you remember, the villagers, those who we re remember, the villagers, those who were killed, the bodies were found

in mass graves and dug up and displayed. today there was very all of those bodies. we didn't know what was going to happen. —— burial. nobody told us there would be that today. it is very difficult to gauge what is happening. one can only speculate. can i just what is happening. one can only speculate. can ijust ask what is happening. one can only speculate. can i just ask you what is happening. one can only speculate. can ijust ask you to explain the practicalities of entering. if i was in myanmar and i headed towards it, would i get some point reached a militantly low block some form of control prevented me from going further? the early where the trouble is happening, that is react is quite remote, so you need to either fly from the capital to get their sticky boat. it is not that straightforward to get to that area. you can be spotted

straightaway. it is a small area, a village, and especially if you're not a native. if you are a foreigner you can be easily identified. scientists in china call it "chemical surgery" — they've removed disease from an embryo. it's a world first. chinese researchers did the work and james gallagher has told me about it. it is surgery on a microscopic level altering dna itself. understanding what it is built of, they are three billion bases but an error ina they are three billion bases but an error in a single one can cause disease, so this team in china has scanned the genetic code to find that one error, this one causes the blood disorder, and change it so that the longer causes disease. can this technique used for other diseases well. there are thousands of genetic diseases passed down

through families, and most of them are caused byjust one error in the 3 billion saw this technology could in theory be applied to a whole range of different diseases, things like sickle cell anaemia and cystic fibrosis are caused byjust one error. and presumably some have ethical concerns about this? the science is not ready to be used clinically but scientists have big questions to answer about whether they would want to. some don't like this research at all because of the playing god argument. some think it is acceptable you could use it for medical purposes and something you could use it for a whole range of other things beyond medicine as well. the question is, should we use technology at all and to what question should be used. those are questions nobody should try to tackle. remember you can get more on that story and many others on the bbc website. let's talk about the crisis in

venezuela. we have discussed that many times. it is leading to food shortages and spiralling inflation. some are concluding their only option is to head there to venezuela and intoa option is to head there to venezuela and into a neighbouring country, for instance, colombia. official figures put the number of venezuelans in colombia at 7000 but it is believed the real number is much higher. towns on the board overseeing a huge number of people coming through. it is one—way traffic at this time of day. a short walk across the bridge into colombia and into a different world. dozens of mothers taking their babies to get vaccinations. many more had empty bags to stock up on food. others are

leaving for good. this mother is saying goodbye to her son and his girlfriend. they are on their way to cheerily. they have no choice, it is the only way for a future. —— chile. they feel sad but they are also feeling happy. the crisis is so bad in venezuela that many cannot afford to eat more than one meal a day. the local church is helping out. seven of 800 people are coming here for lunch, and when you have food shortages and such high inflation meaning food is so expensive, this is the only chance for many to get a decent meal. record numbers of malnourished children, three quarters of venezuelans have shed weight in the last year, an average of nine kilos. veronica is five

months pregnant. she cannot find work in venezuela so travels two hours every day with her mum to sell fruit at the market here in colombia. this is the only proper meal of the day. did you go hungry everyday? look at the weight i have lost. i used to be healthy and strong. 25,000 venezuelans crossed the border every day. while many of the border every day. while many of the time, an increasing number are choosing to stay. authorities are feeling the pressure. at first we said we are going to help you and the situation got worse. they start receiving tonnes of people and the government says, stop, we can't receive any more. her father was killed by pa ramilitaries. receive any more. her father was killed by paramilitaries. their family fed to venezuela when she was a child. now a single mother of two

little boys she has had to return and is desperate. i need to find food for my kids and find a job that will allow me to look after my boys. at night, some parts become dormitories. abbott 300 people sleep on this roundabout every night. some been here four months. the increasing numbers turn to prostitution to earn money, desperate to move forward they can. next, let's update ourselves on the situation with the england cricketer ben stokes. he has been ruled out of international cricket indefinitely. the england and wales cricket board announced he would not be considered for selection until further notice after they viewed footage published

on the sun's website which appeared to show him fighting outside a nightclub on the early hours of sunday morning. on wednesday he had been picked for the ashes two from australia. they are the shocking scenes that have cast a shadow over english cricket, a video allegedly showing england captain ben stokes involved ina england captain ben stokes involved in a street fight. the footage published by the sun newspaper shows the cricketer brawling with two men outside a nightclub in bristol on the early hours of sunday morning. despite appeals for calm from others present he appears to grapple with the man on the floor before throwing a flurry of punches. a 27—year—old was taken to hospital with facial injuries. ben stokes, arrested after visiting the embargo nightclub hours after playing a one—day international, was held on suspicion of causing actual bodily harm and

released pending investigation. his team—mate is helping police with their enquiries. only yesterday he was included in england's's ashes squad that will leave forestjulia in november, but having reviewed the fit each, the ecb said neither of the players would be considered for selection pending internal review and investigation. the ashes preparations thrown into disarray. not the first time he has faced scrutiny of the field. in 2011 he was cautioned after obstructing a police officer. two years later he was sent home from australia after repeated late night drinking. in 2014 he broke his hand after punching a dressing room locker and last year he was banned from driving after being caught speeding four times. he is not streetwise of the pitch and that is something only he can get right. he can be told by

many to improve his lifestyle and not do this and that but ultimately he has to look himself in the manner and change. emily, ben stokes was said to be fragile and devastated. arguably the world's best all—rounder, his global appeal was confirmed this year when he became the most expensive foreign players in the indian premier league. he has not been charged but if years and is convicted his future could be in question. the worst-case scenario is five years in prison. that is potentially what he could be looking at but it would depend on the facts. ben stokes was the man steal fear the most this winter but after a night that appears to have spiralled out of control his fate lies in the hands of the police and the cricket authorities. the ashes dream seems a long way off. our lead story is that

the fourth round of brexit talks have been completed in brussels and one of the main issues to be resolved is the status of the border between ireland which is a member and northern ireland, soon to be outside of the european union. this is the border here and that is one of the decisions that the negotiators are going to have to take. the eu has other borders from which perhaps we can learn. our correspondent has been to look at the border between norway, not a member, and sweden, a member. it's been called the most technologically advanced border in the world as you will see. it's 1000 advanced border in the world as you will see. it's1000 miles long and separates norway from sweden and the eu with dozens of places to cross, from a motorway where you can choose to stop for a customs check to country roads much like those

crisscrossing the uk's border with ireland with at least on the surface, the same lack of controls. that's what i call a frictionless border, no checks whatsoever. 20 miles back, tommy olsson sets off with export goods bound for sweden. he knows he won't have smooth crossing. at the border, norwegian customs has been investing in technology to make things smoother. a giant scanner x—rays lorries picked out for special attention. here are some of the goods they have confiscated, and with alcohol duty sky—high that is a constant battle against smugglers. we conceal the car is crossing the borders. cameras are connected to a number plate recognition system. in future they plan to connect this to customs computers so most lorries can be waved through. the ambition is that

a large proportion of lorries passing, where everything is ok, should pass without human contact. for now, drivers still have to queue up for now, drivers still have to queue up and hand over plenty of paper, although they only needs to visit swedish customs. tommy is exporting from norway and importing into sweden and that many borders it would mean visits the two separate customs operations. because the norwegians and suites work closely together and have integrated computer systems he just has to go to one. back at norwegian customs a queue of drivers arriving from sweden is building up and there are some impatience. it's not fast enough, very slow, so they could work harder and treat the customers better. sometimes it's very bad

because there is a lot of traffic. this may feel like a busy border but ten times crossed the channel at dover so what is the brexit advice to uk ministers. with a hard border they have big issue because then you have to establish new facilities and you have to recruit a lot of people to deal with it. so what would your advice be? make a deal. tommy's progress has been speeded that norway has a closer relationship with the eu than britain is planning, and keeping the border transport slowing may mean that big investment in technology and people. ra re investment in technology and people. rare is the day outside source at the moment that we don't talk about ryanair, the moment that we don't talk about rya nair, cancelling an the moment that we don't talk about ryanair, cancelling an awful lot of flights and upsetting a lot of people, and now threatened with legal action over the way it has built up those passengers following all those thousands of flight cancellations but the uk civil

aviation authority which regulates the industry is accusing ryanair of failing to tell hundreds of thousands of passengers affected by these cancellations that they are in fa ct these cancellations that they are in fact entitled to be re—routed on other airlines. our fact entitled to be re—routed on otherairlines. ourtransport correspondence can give us all the details. it's europe's biggest and busiest airline. but ryanair has been made to look a bit small today, accused of persistently misleading nearly three quarters of a million customers. the uk regulator has now threatened them with legal action. we want them to make it crystal clear to every single passenger what they are entitled to in terms of reading expenses and compensation. we don't think that's a big task and the law is very clear, no dispute. it isjust the law is very clear, no dispute. it is just about their willingness to do that. airlines are meant to leave it passengers on rival carriers if they can't replace

cancelled flights, but just listen to the ryanair boss last week. we will not be paying for a at other airlines. it's not part of the entitlements and those the lowest cost the airline in europe we can't afford to pay high fears of competitor. lots of customers have contacted the bbc, like matthew, who told me airline in an online chat, you are obligated to leave it to me. ryanair replied, you are obligated to leave it to me. rya nair replied, now you are obligated to leave it to me. ryanair replied, now i am not. duncan says... it is pretty rare for you to go public like this, you must be angry? we are furious, we simply don't understand why this has to drag on for weeks. if they take further

action that could land ryanair with the multi—million pound is fine but the multi—million pound is fine but the airline says it will comply with the airline says it will comply with the regulator and has issued guidance to call centre staff. yesterday ryanair suspended guidance to call centre staff. yesterday rya nair suspended 34 winter routes including five in scotla nd winter routes including five in scotland but the government says it has got serious concerns, as has passengers. at the bottom of the e—mail said you're not entitled to any allowance. the refund of my flight any allowance. the refund of my flight but didn't say i was allowed compensation. i have friends coming from london and she hasjust e—mailed me to say it has been cancelled. they were supposed to be coming for my 40th birthday party. a bit of a nightmare. a global shortage of pilots right now, plenty of rivals recruiting. ryanair don't have enough staff to cover the holidays and after cancelling 20,000 flights it is promising no problems

ahead. richard has the last report today and just before the finish, a couple of things coming up with relation to british and european politics. theresa may is in estonia at the moment along with the other leaders of the eu. no formal talks planned but it is the first time since they have all come together since the speech in florence saw no doubt there will be some informal conversations. also theresa may will be giving her main leader's speech at the conservative party conference last week. that'll be covered by bbc news and into october a major bbc summit coming up and no doubt plenty of things relating to brexit will come up. thanks for watching. september almost at an end and for

the early part of october we find all of our weather coming in from the moment a large area of low pressure, slow moving to the north—west but what it is doing is pushing this weather from east words across our shoulders. that'll bring some cloud and outbreaks of rain. behind it, we choose in the sunshine with a scattering of showers towards the north—west, going to be quite windy on friday. the raven takes a little while to clear from the extreme south—east but we see the highest temperatures, but a cool and fresh feel for most of us. showers around, tending to ease off for a while but more cloud coming into western areas overnight and into saturday morning, keeping the temperature up for at least with clear skies and the temperature will be quite a bit lower saw a cool start to the weekend. into the mix, weasel when the remnants of these two horror keynes. they confuse the

computer models and that the uncertainty into the second half of the weekend and into monday. the main feature will be an area of low pressure driving our way so while we start bright for some sunshine this weekend, turning wet and the wind picks up by sunday, gales quite likely. this is saturday and after the chilly start, sunshine to begin with, if few showers dotted about towards the north—west but it is towards the north—west but it is towards the north—west but it is towards the south—west that the wind picks up and that starts to increase and blowing some rain but don't take it too literally. maybe a slightly different position. some uncertainty into the weekend with a mix of tropical air coming in. into the weekend with a mix of tropicalair coming in. it turns into the weekend with a mix of tropical air coming in. it turns wet and windy overnight and the worst of the wind and rain pushing east words later on in the day, but gales quite likely. turning windy in the north—west where we will see some

sunshine and some showers. the temperature, 16—18. this feature is maria, what is left of hurricane maria. at the moment it looks like it or dive to the south—west and run through the english channel and they will have some north—westerly winds blowing down across most of the uk, so blowing down across most of the uk, soa blowing down across most of the uk, so a cooler direction, some sunshine, some showers, northern scotland, running through the north channel and into the north—west but the temperature lower, 13 or 14 is typical. and on to the beginning of the week, low pressure towards the north—east, high—pressure beginning to arrive into the south—west. you can see where the isobars are coming down, so we have this north—westerly wind, cool weather continues into tuesday, cooler than the last few days, the temperature lower than most days, the temperature lower than m ost pla ces days, the temperature lower than most places dry with some showers around. as we move further into next

week, the chance of some high pressure building up from the south—west and the uncertainty is how long it will last but it should settle things down although it would be that form. after that it looks like it to collapse because bc is strengthening jet arriving across the atlantic. everything a game coming in from the atlantic. tonight at ten: ryanair comes under intense pressure it's accused by the aviation regulator of ‘persistently misleading passengers'. as thousands of flights are cancelled and hundreds of thousands of passengers are affected the civil aviation authority orders ryanair to correct its compensation policy. consumers shouldn't have to choose between low—cost fares and legal rights. and that at the moment seems to be what ryanair are saying: you can either have cheaper fares or you can have your legal entitlement. and that's not acceptable. 34 routes will be suspended

between november and march — on top of cancellations already taking place. we were due to fly out of edinburgh. 16 of us. 13 of us had to hire a minibus... 13 of us had to hire a minibus...
