more than six hundred migrants are spending theirfirst night on dry land in spain after having disembarked from a rescue boat at the centre of a major immigration dispute in europe. the aquarius has docked in spain, having been turned away by two other eu states earlier last week. the ship rescued the migrants eight days ago off the coast of libya. it was refused entry by italy and malta and so had to travel an extra one thousand three hundred kilometres to spain. damian grammaticas reports from valencia. from the aquarius, the first sight this morning of spain. it's week—long odyssey across the mediterranean at an end. finally in valencia was a port prepared to welcome the ship. there was a moment ofjoy for those on board. they were rescued from the seas off libya and because of them italy and malta had turned the aquarius away.

only spain stepped in and saying countries should provide those in distress a safe haven. by taking in this boat, spain's new socialist government wants to show that a new type of migration policy for europe as possible. one where you can both control your borders and respect human rights. italy did provide two coast guard ships to help aquarius transport the 630 people to spain. from the number, 80 women and 100 children. some making the riskyjourney with families, many unaccompanied. spain will now give them all free medical care and a 45—day permit to stay while they make their asylum claims. italy says it will continue to prevent all private rescue boats from using its ports. if italy is going to refuse to entry, are you going to continue to pick people up out of the sea? as long as people are dying

and we saw only a few days ago another 12 deaths in that part of the mediterranean. also people died here in the south of spain, so as long as that continues, we do not have a choice. this group thanking the rescuers before stepping onto european soil. it's the dream for so many. how to deal with it is dividing europe more than ever. at least 31 people have been killed in the north—east of nigeria in an attack, suspected to have been carried out by the boko haram group. local residents in damboa in the state of borno reported two suicide bomb blasts and say rocket—propelled grenades were then fired into crowds of people who had been celebrating eid. our africa correspondent, ishaq khalid sent this report from neighbouring bowchi state. the suicide bombers targeted a gathering of people, celebrating the muslim festival of eid, marking the end of the ramadan fast. soon after the blasts,

gunfire followed. and the casualties were massive. the nigerian national emergency management agency says some of the wounded are in critical conditions. a united nations helicopter has been sent to evacuate the casualties from damboa town, in mafi and kawaram. no group said it carried out the attacks, but the militant group, boko haram, are known to operate in the area. these attacks, just hours after the nigerian army chief called on people displaced by boko haram to return to their homes. but these bombings are likely to fuel scepticism about safety and security in the region. let's take a look at some of the other stories making the news... the afghan government has confirmed it is extending its ceasefire with the taliban for at least ten more days. the pause in hostilities was originally announced to coincide

with the eid festival, and was due to end on wednesday. the taliban has said it would not extend the truce beyond sunday night. students from a school in the us state of florida which saw one of the worst ever shootings in the country, have begun a national tour aimed at advocating gun law reform. on their first stop in chicago, the parkland students were joined on stage by celebrities will.i.am and chance the rapper as they called on young people to vote for and advocate tougher gun control laws. at least nine tourists have been injured after a ceiling decoration collapsed on top of people at a popular scenic spot in china's shanxi province. the accident took place inside the whar shan shu mountain tourist centre as people were travelling down an escalator. an emergency team immediately rushed to the scene and rescued those buried under the debris. no one was seriously injured. to the world cup in russia now — where two of the tournament favourites,

germany and brazil, have been playing their opening matches. let's go live to olly foster in moscow. being it has been a testing day for germany. yes, and the other team you we re germany. yes, and the other team you were referring to, brazil as well. ifa man were referring to, brazil as well. if a man emerging from the opening round of matches, four days into this world cup, 11 matches we have seen, is that you just cannot predict the results. germany, the reigning champions, losing the opening match at this world cup to mexico, they are a fine team and straightaway you can see they were so straightaway you can see they were so up the list and so much better as well. germany losing an opening match at a world cup for the first time since 1982. the reigning champions, absolutely stunned and wondering which direction to go when next, because they need so much

improvement. here is adam wild. in moscow, a little taste of mexico. always some of the world cup ‘s more fla m boya nt always some of the world cup ‘s more flamboyant visitors, the reigning champion seemingly do little to quell the excitement. on the field, it was a little different, mexico starting with a confidence and positivity that raise the volume further. with that noise, that energy behind them, pushing them forward , energy behind them, pushing them forward, the gaps were found. eventually, lozano with the moment they travel the world to see. he had composure amongst the chaos. even a generally‘s best moment was touched by mexican magnificence. a toni kroos free kick brilliantly pushed onto the bar. for germany, this was becoming agonising to watch and despite chances in the second half becoming more and more frequent, non—were good enough to make any sort of difference. the mexican defence hanging on amid the german

desperation, shock for the champions but for mexico, on and off the field, one of their greatest ever triumph. it certainly is and they will be enjoying moscow tonight. those mexican fans. here are some of them as they left the stadium. a result beyond their wildest dreams, mexico have always reach the knockout stage in their last six world cups. it is a tough group they have got, sweden and south korea as well but look how much they are enjoying that victory against the champions. translation: was a great match. a spectacular goal by lozano. at the mexico. we want more. mexico played good, with a lot of balls, like we

say in mexico. i think we will be champions all over the world. yeah! mexico! translation: the team is playing together as a group. mexico is a tea m together as a group. mexico is a team and we can beat anyone. we just beat the champions. they certainly did and they deserved it as well. they can dare to dream. what about the germans? they on a really bad run of form coming into the world cup, brilliant through qualifying winning ten out of ten, winning only one out of six international friendlies, supposedly the coach getting things right. he said, do not worry, when we get to russia, the formation will be right. you look at some of the german fans as they left the stadium, not happy at all. sweden and south korea to come for the germans. they did not look right at all, perhaps the last 20

minutes when they threaten to equalise, mexico were absolutely brilliant and obviously the germans cannot afford to slip up again, although they will be out if they do. we will see. never write off the germans! indeed, we are only a few days on and so many surprises so far. how is that draw between brazil and switzerland gone down? not particularly well in brazil. the brazil side waited four years to put things right. they were humiliated at the last world cup by germany, 7-1 at the last world cup by germany, 7—1 in that amazing semifinal. they we re 7—1 in that amazing semifinal. they were up against switzerland and they took a brilliant lead through coutinho, but switzerland, who only lost one in 22 matches came good and gotan lost one in 22 matches came good and got an equaliser in the second half through zuber, so that group is

suddenly wide open. earlier we saw costa rica take on serbia. that was a win, a win for serbia. aleksander kolarov with a fantastic free kick to that was played. four days, 11 matches down, i think we have seen the biggest upset this world cup so far with that mexico win against germany. a fabulous weekend all—round when you think of what iceland did against argentina as well. so far, it is a world cup of the unpredictable. thank you very much. keep us posted. the leaders of greece and macedonia have signed a deal that, if ratified, will resolve a decades—old dispute concerning macedonia's name. the disagreement stems from greece already having a northern province called macedonia. according to the deal, the balkan state will be renamed the republic of north macedonia. guy de launey reports. it could have been a high end

wedding, a picturesque lake, a romantic waterborne crossing by the macedonians and the greek hosts anticipating their guests arrival and of course one side would be changing its name. but there were no last—minute nerves for the two prime ministers, onlyjoy and probably relief that the dispute stretching back three decades is finally nearing its conclusion. the eu's commissioner for enlargement was among the guests. the name change will finally allow skopje to start membership negotiations, now athens has pledged to end its objections. translation: this is an historic step in order to only have winners from now on. in order to heal the wounds of the past, to pave the way for peace, fellowship, collaboration mutual growth. not only for our countries, but for the balkans. the whole of europe. translation: you cannot achieve

anything without courage. courage is the greatest valour followed by honour. signing the final agreement for the name is of strategic importance for the two countries and can move mountains. as the two prime ministers celebrated, the happiest man in the room may have been the un mediator who spent a quarter of a century working on the name dispute. i think working out these problems over a long period of time has resulted in an agreement that really is fair, honourable and workable. and so, the happy couple sales off, not into the sunset, but to lunch, because there is no time for a honeymoon, they still face a referendum in macedonia and a parliamentary vote in greece. choppy waters possibly ahead.

well there have been further signs that not everyone in greece is pleased about the new agreement. protesters in northern greece have clashed with police. the demonstration comes after two days of angry scenes outside greece's parliament in athens, and previous protests elsewhere in the country over the issue. the wife of a cambodian prince who previously served as the country's prime minister in the 1990s has been killed in car accident. princess ook pah—lah was travelling with her husband, prince noro-dum rana-rith , when they were involved in a head—on collision with a taxi. the prince is seriously injured but is expected to recover. they were travelling to meet his political supporters when they were involved in a head—on collision with a taxi in the south—west of the country. stay with us on bbc world news, still to come... fierece fighting the yemeni port

of hudaydah as pro—government forces carry out air strikes on the airport this is bbc world news. the latest headlines... more than six—hundred migrants who were refused entry by italy and malta have arrived in valencia, spain. a shock result in the world cup with the reigning champions germany being beaten one—nil by mexico. let's bring you more now on our main story this hour — the arrival of a ship carrying hundreds of migrants in the spanish port of valencia. joining me now is carleena clayer, who's the head of emergencies for medicos sin fronteras — or doctors without borders — in valencia. thank you forjoining us. i believe you were helping passengers disembark this afternoon. tough

conditions been like this week and how are those people now?|j conditions been like this week and how are those people now? i was in the port this afternoon, the conditions this week have been exhaustive. people were tired, wet and injured, some of them were sick and injured, some of them were sick and they had to do another six days ofa and they had to do another six days of a journey. people were tired and nervous and a lot of them were seasick, but at the same time, very happy today that they arrived, they we re happy today that they arrived, they were singing on the boat. when they arrived, it was a mixture of anxiety and a bit of fear and also pure happiness. they sound like powerful scenes, people singing as you were describing, but what next for them now? there have been talks of france taking some of those people in as well? what we do is saving lives at sea, we are doing a rescue and bringing people to the shore who otherwise might have died and then

it is for the governments to decide what happens to them next. some of them, from eritrea, people from sudan, some of them might be eligible from international protection, for asylum, other people might not fit the criteria and the government of spain will have to see what happens next. to be through the conversations you have been having with these individuals. on the one hand, they thought they were going to italy and now they are in spain, possibly going to france, how are they feeling? it is difficult. these people have often had a horrible journey behind them. they escaped from conflict, violence, sometimes escaping from poverty, looking for a better life. then they arrive in libya, and awful place to be in, these human traffickers, they abuse people, they torture people, extort people, they torture people, extort people, some of them have been three

yea rs people, some of them have been three years in the hands of these human traffickers and then they managed to escape libya. even people who said i have to go back to libya, i would rather die at sea. for them to arrive in a country like europe, on one side they feel very much safe, if you want to call it like that, but on the other side they are realistic and people know, their future is insecure and they might be passed to return to the country of origin and some of them might be able to get asylum in france or spain. we believe that there. tell colombia's presidential candidates have placed their votes in the country's fiercely—contested election — the first since the historic peace deal with farc rebels. the run—off is between conservative ivan dukay and former guerilla gustavo petro. the vote has polarised the country, with mr petro promising to uphold the peace agreement. his rival strongly opposes it. our south america correspondent katy watson

is in bogota and explained the issues that separate the two candidates. these elections have divided colombia. in this, the second round, voters have a choice between two very different candidates. on the right, relative political newcomer, ivan duque. he is the business pick, keen on boosting investment and economic growth here in colombia. and gustavo petro, a former rebel with the now defunct m19 movement and a former mayor of bogota. he had has made fighting inequality and corruption the heart of his campaign. the fact that gustavo petro has got this far is a big dealfor colombia. this is a politically conservative country and since 2016, the left has become legitimised, it has not been as associated with violence as it once was. it still faces big challenges. people here are still nervous of the left after more than 50 years of conflict. add to that the situation in venezuela. the right has capitalised on gustavo petro's leftist policies, saying that if the left wins it could usher in a new venezuela here in colombia.

although there might be scaremongering, it certainly resonates with many, with more than 10 million with more than a million venezuelans coming into colombia in the past 15 months alone, people here are nervous about the situation next door. the other thing is that the candidates differ a lot on is their approach to the peace deal. gustavo petro wants to keep it intact, ivan duque says he wants to make changes. there is a big feeling here in colombia that the peace deal was too lenient with former rebel members and that needs to change. the concern is on both sides, if the right wins, what will all those changes mean to the future peace here in colombia? if the left wins, what will that mean for future economic growth and uncertainty with somebody who is very new in terms of left—wing politics here in colombia? there is a lot riding on these elections. pro—government forces in yemen backed by saudi—led coalition has carried out air strikes on the airport that serves the yemeni port of hudaydah. the red sea city has been the site of fierce fighting over the past few days. the fighting has blocked off a key exit in hudaydah, making it difficult to move goods

from the port and for people to leave. bbc‘s middle east analyst, alanjohnston explains why hudaydah is an important location. what is happening in hudaydah matters. this is one of the most significant battles that we have seenin significant battles that we have seen in the course of the yemeni civil war and it is causing huge concern in the international aid community. for a start, concern in the international aid community. fora start, hudaydah concern in the international aid community. for a start, hudaydah is home to hundreds of thousands of civilians and there is every danger they are about to get caught in the crossfire. every danger that a terrifying battle is about to erupt in the streets around their homes and at the same time, hudaydah is a very important port, the most important in yemen. food, fuel and humanitarian aid flows through

hudaydah and the theory is that this battle will interrupt that flow with very serious consequences for millions of people across the north of yemen who are on the brink of famine. you have the rebels defending hudaydah and its port, under attack by pro—yemeni forces, supported by their powerful allies, the saudis and the uae and the west is involved as well. the americans helped fuel the saudi bombers on their emissions and the british have sold billions of dollars of missiles and ammunitions to the saudis. yesterday we heard that pro—government forces had taken control of the airport, obviously thatis control of the airport, obviously that is not the case and fighting is continuing. that is right, the airport has been the scene of the most intense action of this offensive launched on wednesday and there were reports yesterday, saturday, that the rebels have been forced out of the airport but through today, it has become clear that was not the case. we heard of

more saudi air attacks on the airport, which lies to the south of hudaydah, and there are unconfirmed reports of major preparations now for another attempt to assault the airport and drive out the rebels. clearly a n airport and drive out the rebels. clearly an intense situation and we are watching it closely. how can this be diffused diplomatically? as we speak and through these last 48 hours or so of fighting, the un envoy to yemen, martin griffis has beenin envoy to yemen, martin griffis has been in the capital of yemen which is in the hands of the rebels and he has been locked in talks with the huthi rebels and we understand he is hoping that he can broker a deal under which the huthi rebels will withdraw from hudaydah and be given safe passage and the harbour will be put under a safe passage and the harbour will be put undera un safe passage and the harbour will be put under a un management. we understand that the rebels have said they will study these proposals and they will study these proposals and they are demanding an end to the

saudi led air attacks on their positions, but the fact is we do not know enough about how the stocks are unfolding. before we go we're going to show you some very happy world cup pictures. these schoolchildren in uruguay had something to celebrate, as they watched their team snatch a last—minute win over egypt in the tournament.... that is all for now, thank you for watching bbc world news. for most of us, a fresh and cloudy weekend but things are set to warm up, particularly across the south of

the country. perhaps even turning a little too hot for some of us, but in the north, we will retain the cool weather and also occasional rain. let us look at the satellite picture, there is a lot of cloud across the uk, it has been streaming in from the atlantic over the course of the day and it looks as though the skies are going to clear temporarily through the course of the night across some western areas of the uk. here it is, early hours of monday morning, we start to see the skies clearing in scotland, the north of england, wales into the south west, remaining cloudy through the night across the south—east of england and also quite mild, 15 in their south. tomorrow sta rts mild, 15 in their south. tomorrow starts off sunny and later in the day, cloud will increase from the west once more, the cloud could be big enough to give a little bit of drizzle here and there, but the temperatures will be significantly

higher across england and wales, mid 20s in the south—east, into the 20s across yorkshire but remaining fresh across yorkshire but remaining fresh across the north of britain and the reason we will see a contrast between the north and south is because the air, takes a detour, moves because the air, takes a detour, m oves a cross because the air, takes a detour, moves across england and wales and then out into the continent. on the northern edge, there is a weather front, additionally it will turn wet potentially on tuesday across parts of northern ireland and the west of scotland. to the south of this weather front, this is scotland. to the south of this weatherfront, this is where scotland. to the south of this weather front, this is where the warm air is across england and wales, temperatures around 25 degrees. that is on tuesday. midway, we see that weather front moving away and behind this weather front we still have fresh air, that means that scotland and northern ireland remain in the fresh air on wednesday but there will be sunshine around in the western isles and for glasgow and belfast, there is some. it looks as though it may cool off a fraction in northern parts of england. that heat slips further towards the south into the midlands, east anglia and the south—east. perhaps the high

teens in england on wednesday, possibly 27 in london and norwich. towards the end of the week, high establishes itself across the uk and we are talking about mostly dry weather. this is bbc world news. the headlines: three boats including the aquarius have docked in spain carrying hundreds of rescued migrants after they were refused entry by italy and malta. they are pa rt entry by italy and malta. they are part of a growing row over the way the eu handles migration. boko haram jihadists have attacked a town in north—east nigeria. six female suicide bombers were involved. rocket propelled grenades were fired into crowds celebrating the eid festival. a day of surprise
