dozens of palestinians have been killed and thousands injured by israeli troops during protests as america opens its new embassy injerusalem. officials say at least 52 people have died in the clashes at the gaza border in the bloodiest day of violence for four years. nothing will break us, not netanyahu, nothing will break us, not neta nyahu, not israel, nothing will break us, not netanyahu, not israel, not the united states. in jerusalem, the us opened its new embassy at a ceremony attended by president trump's daughter and son—in—law. israel's prime minister called it a glorious day. president trump, by recognising history, you have made history. we'll have the latest from gaza and jerusalem. also on the programme tonight... the head of mi5 accuses russia of bare faced lying and criminal thuggery over the salisbury nerve agent attack. jamie oliver and nicola sturgeon try to tackle childhood obesity, with more than 100,000 children in scotland seriously overweight. brawls breaking out at goodwood and ascot — more security guards could be brought in to stop a recent spate

of violence at the races. and i'm here with thousands of fans, as manchester city's footballlers parade the premier league title. and coming up on bbc news, it's two wins in eight days over magdalena rybarikova, asjohanna konta reaches the second round of the italian 0pen. good evening and welcome to the bbc news at six. palestinian officials say that israeli forces have shot dead more than 50 protesters in gaza on the same day that the united states opened its new embassy injerusalem. more than 2,000 palestinians are reported to have been injured. protests have been taking place along gaza's border

with israel for six weeks, but they've intensified today. the embassy has been moved from tel aviv, in line with donald trump's election campaign promise — a decision that has infuriated palestinians. from jerusalem here's our middle east editor, jeremy bowen. palestinians call these protests the great march of return. for many of the young people who rushed the border line with israel it was a one—way journey. israel border line with israel it was a one—wayjourney. israel used a lot of tear gas... and lots of bullets. its army says it shoots to kill and to carefully —— under carefully controlled circumstances. it shot a lot today. israel blames the dead and wounded an hamas, the islamic resista nce and wounded an hamas, the islamic resistance movement that runs gaza, it organised the protests. palestinians say their rage comes from israel's brutality and its

denial of their right to independence. injerusalem, denial of their right to independence. in jerusalem, police scuffled with israeli peace campaigners outside the new american embassy. for what is left of israel's peace movement, this is a dark day. inside the us marine showed their colours and so has the trump administration, it's broken with an international consensus that the israel state is undecided so the state should say in tel aviv. today we officially open the united states embassy in jerusalem. congratulations, it's been a long time coming. president trump's daughter and son—in—law came to celebrate with israel's prime minister. what a glorious day. remember this moment. applause this is history. president trump, by

recognising history, you have made history. moving the embassy is a triumph for prime minister netanyahu, a promise kept for president trump and most israelis are happy. but so far, there is no evidence to back up mr netanyahu's claim that get the peace. 0n the west bank, palestinians demonstrated against what the americans called the new realities, and against old ones. for palestinians, keys are symbols of the dispossession of 750,000 refugees never allowed back after israel beat the arabs in the 1948 war. we are marching in their best traditions of martin luther king and gandhi, peacefully, nonviolently, insisting our right forjerusalem as our capital and our right of return does nothing will break us, not netanyahu, not israel,

not the united states. later there we re not the united states. later there were clashes between palestinian youths on israeli army. 0n the streets, the lead up to today's events has been tense and angry. this was the old city ofjerusalem at the weekend. nationalistic israelis parade every year through the overwhelmingly palestinian muslim quarter to celebrate israel's ca ptu re muslim quarter to celebrate israel's capture of jerusalem muslim quarter to celebrate israel's capture ofjerusalem in the 1967 war. mostly it was noise and insults... sometimes it boiled over. nobody is saying that arabs can't say here, of course they can live here. you find it hard to say the word palestinians, don't you 7 it hard to say the word palestinians, don't you? there are arabs living in this area. why did you call them palestinians? there is no reason to. why? there is no such thing as a palestinian people, there

never has been. there is always tension and hatred injerusalem and on days like this it is very stark. that is becausejerusalem is right at the centre of the conflict between israelis and palestinians. the future of this city is probably the most politically radioactive issue in the entire middle east. the americans believe they have the support of the saudis and other arab countries to persuade palestinians to a cce pt countries to persuade palestinians to accept less, but in gaza nearly 2 million people live with little hope, less patience and no desire to listen. the bbc arabic reporter, nida ibrahim, has been covering today's protests in gaza. in the last hour, she said there are concerns that things could get worse. we're hearing talks here about a potential escalation and it remains to be seen in the next few hours whether that will be implemented or not. it's worth noting that tomorrow will be the culmination of protests among palestinian protesters,

because they commemorate the date that they call "nakba", or "catastrophe", which is the day that israel was established. let's speak to our middle east editor, jeremy bowen. that must be the fear, the bloodiest violence we have seen in years today. the fear must be it is going today. the fear must be it is going to get worse? that is always the fear when this kind of things happens and sometimes those fears are happens and sometimes those fears a re u nfortu nately happens and sometimes those fears are unfortunately recognise. 0utside the defending what they have done. mr netanyahu, the israeli prime minister has come out with a new statement. he said every state has an obligation to protect its borders. hamas sent thousands to breach the borderfence, they borders. hamas sent thousands to breach the border fence, they will defend their sovereignty and citizens. i think the israelis will wa nt to citizens. i think the israelis will want to calm things down if they can because they realised internationally this many dead is a problem for them. and the hamas front, i think they are prepared to

accept some casualties as they would see it, but it is a lot of dead people. so they may want to calm things down. the fact is nobody knows and while this political problem between two peoples in the same piece of land continues, as it has continued to 70 years of israeli statehood and 30 years before that orso, statehood and 30 years before that or so, while it continues, this violence will at times explode. jeremy bowen, thank you. the head of m15 has accused russia of "criminal thuggery" and "bare—faced lying". andrew parker condemned moscow for the salisbury nerve agent attack as well as for backing the use of chemical weapons in syria and annexing crimea. in his speech in berlin, mr parker also revealed that since last year, the security services are thwarting, on average, one terror attack a month in the uk. 0ur security correspondent, gordon corera, reports. more than two months after the poisonings in salisbury, signs today that the investigation is still underway.

but across europe, in berlin, the head of m15 today told a meeting of security officials that the evidence pointing the finger at russia was stronger than ever. andrew parker was outspoken about the threat european democracies face from moscow. the russian state's now well—practised doctrine of blending media manipulation, social media disinformation and distortion, along with new and old forms of espionage and high levels of cyber attacks, military force and criminal thuggery is what is meant these days by the term ‘hybrid threats'. he also warned that european countries faced an intense and unrelenting international terrorist threat. this unprecedented tempo of attack planning shows no sign of abating. in the uk alone, since the westminster attack in march last year, with the police we have thwarted a further 12

islamist terror plots — 12 occasions where we have good reason to believe a terrorist attack would otherwise have taken place in our country. this was the first time a serving head of m15 has spoken publicly outside of the uk and andrew parker came here to berlin, in the heart of europe, to deliver a message. the message was that international cooperation has never been more vital in confronting the threats that european countries face. after his speech, i asked the m15 chief if brexit risked undermining this cooperation. it's the threat that tells us we need to be able to keep working together at a time when we were dealing with, for example, the prospect of foreign fighters from syria moving around across europe, when we've got sharper and higher volume activity by states like russia in the cyber realm.

these are times when we need to be able to work together and not have that, in any way, affected. andrew parker left berlin with a message that politics should not get in the way of security. when it comes to cooperation with europe, he will be hoping that, after brexit, britain is not shut out. a family of five have blown themselves up in indonesia in the second such suicide bombing in two days. the islamic state group says it was behind the attack. police say the family, all riding motorbikes, set off explosives outside a police station in surabaya, four of them died but an 8—year—old girl survived. several police and bystanders were injured. yesterday a family of six killed themselves in bombings at three churches. it's thought they'd recently returned from syria. there's been no significant progress in brexit negotiations since march, according to the eu's chief negotiator michel barnier. the issue of the irish border, and the customs arrangement,

remains a key stumbling block. today theresa may met backbench mps at downing street, to explain the government's ideas for dealing with the problem. 0ur political editor laura kuenssberg reports. trying to get her own side on side. i'm always reassured when i meet the prime minister. theresa may summoning all tory mps to number ten. she was in very good form. as she fights on many fronts. a cabinet that can't agree what to do on customs after brexit. if you disagree with the prime minister on this issue, why do you lack the courage to resign? as i say, i think they're prime minister's position that i've now twice applauded is com pletely that i've now twice applauded is completely right. and parliament that an many sides doesn't like her plans. parliament will have to step up plans. parliament will have to step up to the plate on this one because

ministers have such differing and irreconcilable views. unable to agree amongst themselves, the tories can't crack on with this element of brexit, while those whose lives could be most affected can only watch on and worry. all be political complexities are about a simple question, on the right of the bridges the uk, and the left is ireland. next year that becomes a border of the european union, too. last weekend at a traditional tractor run in the north, we heard fears and frustration about how that could change life here. that's what a lot of people are worried, the fa ct a lot of people are worried, the fact is so uncertain and nobody seems to know what's going on, i don't think they really know either. i would prefer myself no borders because we had borders 30 years ago. ministers say there won't be a hard border but not how they will prevent it. ina border but not how they will prevent it. in a weekend match, there are real concerns. i need to go up and down every day anyway so i don't wa nt to

down every day anyway so i don't want to see any checkpoints. there was enough bother between unionists and nationalists, so i think this is just making it worse. no agreement on ireland is one of the reasons talks might fail, said the eu chief negotiator. how much progress has there really been before the next vital summit there really been before the next vitalsummit injune? there really been before the next vital summit in june? i would say a little, very little. cannot underestimate the rendezvous in june. number ten says they will reach a customs decision speedily but with the prime minister trying to persuade to many parties, can she really have it all? the time is almmost 6:15pm. our top story this evening... dozens of palestinians have been killed and thousands injured by israeli troops during protests as america opens its new embassy in jerusalem. and still to come... gearing up for the royal wedding with less than a week to go. coming up on bbc news, we are in

manchester as man city celebrate a record—breaking season with an open bus parade in front of their fans. punch ups and fighting at the races. not the kind of scenes you expect at race courses like ascot or goodwood. but that's what has happened recently. last week, around 50 people were involved in a fight at goodwood. and at the weekend there was a brawl at ascot. it all means that more uniformed security guards could be brought in to deter anti—social behaviour. 0ur sports correspondent, richard conway, is at windsor races for us. racing is under way here at windsor. it isa racing is under way here at windsor. it is a quiet affair compared with the violent scenes we have witnessed at ascot and goodwood in recent weekend. questions about levels of security and how they can prevent such anti—social behaviour from happening again in the future.

0h, oh, my days! for two consecutive weekends, this is the sight that has confronted racegoers at some of britain's premier courses. on saturday at ascot, groups of men fought inside the main grandstand after the final race, with the drunken brawl spilling onto the pavement outside. 0rganisers estimated, based on cctv images, that six to eight individuals were at the core of the fighting. but videos posted to social media suggest larger numbers were involved. the incident came one week after a man was kicked in the head during shocking scenes of violence involving up to 50 people at goodwood. i completely understand why there is concern and we need to nail that and make sure we provide a safe environment for the bad thing we do for the vast majority of cases but one bad example is one too many.

the bha is now promising to look at the availability of alcohol when a review of racecourse licenses takes place later this year. numbers and visibility of security staff will also be examined. sniffer dogs could also be used more to stop people entering courses with illegal drugs such as cocaine. the public, and indeed the sort of people who will go to the races with a mind to this kind of violence, need to be able to see high visibility uniforms and a significant, visible police presence or security presence that sends out a clear message, they cannot start fights on racecourses. evening racing in the spring sunshine at windsor, all part of the varied calendar the sport enjoys within britain. the feeling of many of those in attendance is that the sport is still safe to enjoy. kids love it will do it is good entertainment and good crack, as it says on the poster. you have to be aware. if you see anything kicking

up, you move away. would you be concerned about bringing your family toa concerned about bringing your family to a race day now? yes, it is worrying. hopefully, it isjust an isolated incident. i certainly will not be going to the silva ring at royal ascot. racing's reputation as a family friendly sport is under scrutiny in light of back—to—back weekends or violence. it now faces the task of reassuring the public it remains a safe day out. richard conway, bbc news. more than 110,000 children in scotland are obese. now the scottish government says it is determined to cut childhood obesity by half over the next decade. 0ne plan is to targetjunk food promotions and how certain foods are marketed. and today first minister nicola sturgeon met the celebrity chef and food campaignerjamie 0liver to discuss her plans. lorna gordon reports. lunchtime at moss end primary in north lanarkshire. there you go.

there is plenty on the menu and strong opinions from even the youngest about what they like to eat. you are having curry today. what is your favourite food? pizza. cheese toastie and salad. pasta. i mostly get fruit and cookies sometimes. the scottish government says that by the time many of these children leave school, it wants to have halved childhood obesity. so, here is the challenge. one in three children in scotland is at risk of being overweight or obese. half of all children say they eat chocolates or sweets at least once a day. and more than a third of children say they drink sugary drinks at least once a day, too. what was very small has now become quite complex. first minister nicola sturgeon made her announcement while meeting celebrity chefjamie 0liver, who has been leading a campaign to get the country eating more healthily. the exact details to be

announced in the summer. in the scottish government's sights, bulk buys and special offers on what they considered junk food. we don't want to make the household shop more expensive for people but we do want to look at the kind of promotions and offers that are seen to encourage overconsumption of certain foods. many scottish schools are already pushing a healthier and more active lifestyle among their children. in north lanarkshire, they welcome the idea of a wider obesity strategy. anything that promotes health and well—being has got to be a good thing. we have noticed a huge difference with the children not being out to play. we notice a big difference in the afternoons. the children are out and active, eating healthily. they are focused, they are much more concentrating on their work and it is a big positive shift. by focusing their efforts on the young, the scottish government is hoping to change the health of future generations. the funeral has taken place of the toddler, alfie evans, who died at alder hey hospital last month.

hundreds of people lined the streets of liverpool to say farewell as alfie's funeral cortege passed by on the way to a private ceremony. the 23—month—old had a degenerative brain condition. his case drew international attention when it became the centre of a legal battle in the high court over the future of his care. it's been announced that the actress margot kidder has died at the age of 69. name lois lane, say hello to clark kent. the canadian—born star rose to fame in 1978 after playing lois lane in the superman film series, opposite christopher reeve. the cause of death was not immediately known. thousands of people are lining the streets tonight for manchester city's victory parade. it's just got underway in the city centre and the team are carrying with them their premier league and league cup trophies. the side finished the season on a record breaking high as they became the first team to amass 100 points in the premier league. andy swiss is there. yes, as you can see, the party is

very much under way. we have thousands of manchester city fans waiting for the players to arrive in the next half an hour or so. at the moment the players are parading their city streets on board open top buses. they are showing off the two trophies they have won this season, the league cup and the premier league title. city fans are getting used to these sorts of celebrations. this is their third league title in the last seven seasons. what makes this particularly special is the way they have won it. they have snatched a whole series of records in the process and become the first premier league team to notch up 100 points ina league team to notch up 100 points in a season. they have scored 106 goals and finish 19 points clear of their nearest rivals. they have really dominated the season from start to finish. they are due to arrive here in the next half an hour

and will be presented to the crowd. pep guardiola has already talked about his players being incredible. the fans here certainly agree with that verdict. with less than a week to go until the royal wedding, there's plenty of speculation about the dress that meghan markle has chosen to wear. it is of course a closely guarded secret. but with royal protocol in mind, colleen harris has been trying to find out what we might expect to see. the wedding dress... the focus of every bride's big day. but meghan markle will wear hers under an intense global spotlight. like the gowns worn by diana princess of wales and catherine duchess of cambridge, meghan's dress must be fit for a princess. meghan's style is very classic. however, she's very fashionable, so i think we should expect something a little bit edgy. we asked wedding stylist

victoria sullivan to pick a few looks that might work for the royal bride. it's chic, it's sophisticated and very, very elegant. also, i think the leaf motif has all the detail we want from a royal wedding dress. is this enough of a statement dress, do you think? i think it's absolutely a statement dress, particularly as meghan hopefully will be wearing something like this. while the gown is kept secret, some of the flowers for the wedding have been revealed. one of which is peonies. now, here they are, they're absolutely beautiful, they‘ re very blowsy, very romantic and perfect for a wedding. also one of meghan's favourites. and it's notjust the flowers that are important. the chapel will be dressed in foliage. there's hornbeam here and we've got some birch.

these are actually going to be sourced from the royal parks. now, another key element is the myrtle. this has been used in every royal bouquet since queen victoria got married and it symbolises good luck in marriage. so what about the guests and what they will wear? jane taylor has been making hats for royal occasions for a decade. it really does depend on your outfit, your face shape, your overall proportions. so this is a lovely 1950s—inspired piece. let me just adjust for you. oh, i love this, this is very elegant. i do love that on you. i love it! this you should really wearwith your hairup, it would just frame the face better. it's really easy to wear, the little band just sits underneath your hair. it makes you stand differently. it does, it lifts you at least an inch. a wedding should leave some element of surprise.

the finer details will be unveiled on the big day and we don't have long to wait. colleen harris, bbc news. time for a look at the weather. here's tomasz schafernaker. it is warming up. it is going to be nice tomorrow. the weather for the rest of the week is looking absolutely fine. a little bit nippy at night let's summarise the week. the main message is there will be a lot of dry weather. it does look like the temperatures will dip a bit mid week, especially in the north—west, then they will be coming back up again in time for the weekend. the satellite image shows a bit of cloud across some of the west of the uk. it has been partly cloudy in northern ireland and the far south—east and east anglia. whether

skies will be clear tonight and central parts of the uk, it will be nippy. the temperature first thing in the morning in newcastle might be as low as 4 degrees. in the south, maybe seven to ten and we might match that in belfast as well. there isa match that in belfast as well. there is a little bit of rain on the way tomorrow and it will not last for very long, hopefully. that is for belfast and glasgow. the north—western areas will catch a bit of rain. we have lime green and yellow colours indicating slightly fresher air coming in of the atlantic. 16 for belfast. look at that across the bulk of england and wales. it would be a warm day with temperatures in the high teens or low 20s. the weather fronts will be moving across the uk bringing fresh airto moving across the uk bringing fresh air to scotland, northern ireland and the north of england. it will cool off a little bit. the sun is a powerful this time of year. even if

it is around 13 degrees in belfast it is around 13 degrees in belfast it still will feel pleasant. in the south, down to 17. thursday, friday and saturday, in windsor is looking absolutely fine, at least at this stage. a reminder of our main story... dozens of palestinians have been killed and thousands injured by israeli troops during protests as america opens its new embassy in jerusalem. that's all from the bbc news at six. 0n bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. this is bbc news — our latest headlines. more than 50 palestinians are reported dead after clashes with israeli forces on the border with gaza, as the us opens its embassy injerusalem. the embassy's relocation has prompted concern about the future of the peace process, but president trump says it's a "great day" for israel. the head of m15 has accused russia of trying to undermine european democracies, and is warning of the ongoing threat from the islamic state group.

and there's a cross—party warning of the perils of a so—called hard brexit, but leave campaigners are calling it a last gasp effort by remainers. in a moment it'll be time for sportsday but first a look at what else is coming up this evening on bbc news. dozens of palestinians have been killed in clashes with israeli forces, as the us opens its embassy injerusalem. we'll have the latest from gaza and jerusalem. there's been a sharp rise in the number of children under 11 referred by schools for mental health treatment, we'll be analysing why. and don't forget at 10.40 we'll give you a heads up
