hello, i'm ros atkins, this is outside source. a very good day for donald trump. the us supreme court says the trump travel ban is legal. a tremendous success, a tremendous victory for the american people, and for our constitution. this is a great victory for our constitution. we'll bring the latest on the migrant crisis in europe. after five days stranded at sea, a boat with more than 200 people will dock in malta — after a deal was cut with italy and france. a spanish doctor has appeared in court accused of stealing a baby during the the franco dictatorship. it's suspected that thousands were stolen by different doctors. bbc mundo will be live on that. and after the slowest of slow starts in the world cup, it is breaking hearts and cheering people up. argentina win their place in the knock out stages, they'll meet france in the next round, after lionel messi found his form — and the back of the net — to beat nigeria. the president summed
9:01 pm
up our lead story well. "supreme court upholds trump travel ban. wow! " the ban targets people from syria, iran, libya, yemen and somalia. the supreme court ruled 5—4 in favour — going precisely with the conservative majority. chiefjustice john roberts wrote that the ban was, quote, "squarely within the scope of presidential authority". and here's the president himself. the ruling shows that all of the attacks from the media and the democrat politicians are wrong, and they turned out to be very wrong. what we are looking for as republicans, i can tell you, is strong borders, no crime. what the democrats are looking at is open borders, which will bring tremendous crime. it will bring ms—13 and lots of others that
9:02 pm
we don't want to have in our country. bernie sanders tweeted: next, this is the president of a group called muslim advocates. with this decision, we are concerned that donald trump will move beyond the five muslim majority countries that are in the current version, to not only target more countries, but potentially even go after us citizens and lawful permanent residents. one former republican congressman, joe walsh, tweeted: we can also play you the reaction of
9:03 pm
one member of the trump 2020 advisory committee. this is obviously a huge win for president trump, but more importantly a win for the american people and their national security. it's also a win for future presidents because the court upheld his presidential authority under the us immigration and national act, and what is so significant is that previous administrations have established that these countries were deemed a threat to the united states, to the us security and that it was almost virtually impossible to vet these individuals coming into the country. i asked anthony zurcher whether this ban was in place indefinitely. essentially the supreme court said that it was willing to
9:04 pm
consider this again at some later point, but that for the moment that it stays in effect. that it was justified, notjust under us law, that it was a legal exercise, presidential authority based on the laws that congress passed, but also that it was constitutional. they said that you can take into account donald trump's motivation, but that the law itself, or donald trump's order itself was perfectly worthwhile, perfectly valid standing and that it did not have any sort of racial bias in it. and some people watching from outside of the us, anthony, may be interested in how politics and the law become intertwined in america given that the way this vote went with essentially dictated by whether president obama or president trump got to choose the ninth member of the supreme court. that is exactly right. you have to remember back in 2016, early in 2016justice anthony
9:05 pm
scalia died, that created a vacancy on the us supreme court. the republicans in the senate kept the seat open, they did not vote on obama's nominee to replace the justice. then when donald trump won they waited for donald trump to make hisjudicial nominee, democrats tried to block it, they changed rules in order to confirm neil gorsich and he was essentially the deciding vote here. it wasn't just this travel ban case, it was another case about regulating pregnancy crisis centres and it was decided 5-4. there was a gerrymandering case decided 5—4, voting rights case decided 5—4. there's going to be a union case decided 5—4. time and time again that one seat has made all the difference in determining what is and is not constitutional, what is and is not legal. so when you say elections have consequences, in this particular case it has some serious consequences about the direction
9:06 pm
of the us supreme court and judicial interpretation. this would always be good news for the white house — but this is timely. the trump administration has been on the backfoot over the family separation story. that has been playing out on the border with mexico. on that, this drone footage of a "tent city" in texas. this is holding children who have been separated from their parents. we're now being told by us border agents that they will temporarily stop criminally prosecuting migrants who enter the country with children. this effectively ends president trump's ‘zero tolerance‘ approach — for now. but us attorney general is denying this is a climbdown. the president has made this clear, we are going to continue to prosecute those adults who enter here illegally. we are going to do everything in our power, however, to
9:07 pm
avoid separating families. all federal agencies are working hard to accomplish this goal. look at this copy that has come in from reuters. 17 us states and the district of columbia are suing the trump administration to try and stop what they call the "cruel and unlawful" policy of separating migrant families. i asked antony how that would work: it depends on what a lower court judge decides. if you're a member on the travel ban case on obama's immigration policy states brought suit against the federal government and in district court which is the lowest level of the federal court system a judge issued an injunction effectively putting on hold implementation of that policy. what could happen with this lawsuit from the states if they find the right judge or a judge is sympathetic to their cause, he could conceivably issue an injunction that would put the entire policy on hold. this is the entire policy on hold. this is the big legal battle that is coming
9:08 pm
up. the travel ban case was decided in the supreme court today, that settles that. but even talking to activist to a year who are upset about the decision they have their eyes on the border policy, families being separated. they know that is just the next legal battle that will happen and that they will have to start getting ready for it. and donald trump will make the same argument on that that he did here, which is that it's a national security issue. he will say presidents have big authority on immigration and he has to make these decisions in order to protect the us and ensure that there is no crime that criminals don't come into this country. much more information on the story available online from bbc news. next we turn to spain. this is a man called eduardo vela going on trial in madrid. he's the first person to appear in court in connection with thousands of suspected cases of stolen babies during the franco era. gen francisco franco ruled from 1939 to 1975. vela is now 85 and for many years worked as a doctor — he's accused of abducting a baby
9:09 pm
from her mother in 1969 and giving the baby to another woman. the baby in question was inies madrigal. she's now 49. this is what she said outside court. this is no longer my case, this is transcended —— this has transcended. everyone knows that in this country children were stolen all over the spanish soil. this is a culmination of many years of campaigning for justice on this in the issue of baby abductions during franco's dictaroship. franco. many people gathered outside to campaignfor many people gathered outside to campaign for more people to appear in courtand campaign for more people to appear in court and for some cases to be reopened. here are some of the women who spoke during a demonstration. a girl was taken from me born on may 23 in 1977. i'm looking for a sister who was born on september 20 1966.
9:10 pm
we never believed the girl had died. there's no birth certificate or death certificate and no name of the doctor who attended my mother at the birth. a short time ago i spoke to inma gilfrom bbc mundo. it all started at the end of the spanish civil war, 1939, and was the beginning of the general‘s dictatorship. initially there was some sort of ideological motivation behind it, so they used to take the babies away from republican families they thought were not suitable to bring this bahebeck —— bring these babies up in the would give them to families that were more linked to their regime. they would have links to people in power or to the church. they would likely be more affluent and over the decades because we are talking about some sort of network of stolen babies and illegal adoptions that spread all the way to the late 70s and 805, so adoptions that spread all the way to the late 705 and 805, so over the decades it changed and he became more of a business. so, it was more
9:11 pm
to do with illegal adoptions to make money. and met all even when the mother and father lost their baby and they reported back to the hospital or to the police, how did tho5e investigations not identify some of the people who were stealing the babies? well, there are different factors here. i haveju5t spoken recently to one of the victims, and she was pointing out the fact that many people, both families, parent5 the fact that many people, both families, parents and children, they don't know their victims. because what they used to do is tell vulnerable mothers who were maybe 5ingle vulnerable mothers who were maybe single mothers or poor, they would say that their kids died. either during labour or shortly after labour, so some of these mothers never questioned what the doctors we re never questioned what the doctors were saying and they never actually saw the dead bodies. and they are only now, maybe a0 or 50 years later wondering whether there was one of the stolen babie5. and the same goes for the babies a5 the stolen babie5. and the same goes
9:12 pm
for the babies as well. love the trial today is proving i5 for the babies as well. love the trial today is proving is that the documents were forged, so some children do have in their birth certificates that they are the natural children of their parents and they were not. so they don't know they were stolen babie5. and they were not. so they don't know they were stolen babies. we have this 85—year—old man in court, but how many other people do we think may also be brought into court a5 think may also be brought into court as part of this investigation? it's impossible to know. and i think that i5 impossible to know. and i think that is one of the frustrations that the associations of victims have wa5te. they feel that ever since this scandal came to light about ten years ago there has been an air of impunity and nobody has been prosecuted. they say it is very difficult to have evidence because some of these crimes are 70 years old, 80 years old, so some of these people no longer exist. some of the5e people no longer exist. some of these clinics where this happened no longer operate as well. so it has been difficult to find evidence from
9:13 pm
many of the thousands of victims who potentially could have been stolen babie5. potentially could have been stolen babies. if you speak spanish you can get you through bbc mundo .com. in a couple of minutes we turned back to a story we talked about yesterday. harley—davidson decided to move some of its production outside of the us because of terrorists while donald trump has hit back hard. you will hear what he said. —— because of tariffs. two men have died and 18 people have been injured following a crash between a double—decker bus and a lorry in cambridge5hire. one of those killed is believed to be the driver of the bus. our correspondent anna tood sent this update. the inspector 5aid the inspector said that this was really just an unfortunate the inspector said that this was reallyju5t an unfortunate coming together of vehicles. the lorry appears to have been turning out of the depot, probably turning right and the buzz has collided —— the buzz has collided. it police have ju5t buzz has collided. it police have just said that the two men who died we re just said that the two men who died were on the bus, one of them was the bus driver. the men were from
9:14 pm
northamptonshire and the other was from norfolk. they are said to be five seriously injured with a combination of broken bones and head injuries, and also seven walking wounded. they have all been taken to a local hospitals. police are now been appealing for information. they're very keen to speak to eyewitne55e5. they've had a number of people come forward so far but they are particularly at interested to talk to people who have da5h cam footage that might have captured this tragic accident. this is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. our lead story is from washington. president trump's travel ban has been deemed constitutional by the us supreme court. things have got to the sharpened at the world cup. argentina won their final group game against nigeria.
9:15 pm
they had to win to stay in the tournament. they left it late. let's bring in arlene fo5ter live with us in moscow. that kind of shredded the nerves of both nigerians and the others. you feel sorry for nigeria, you really do. in the build—up to this match, all the talk was about player muniz and revolts. player power picking the team, they made five changes dropping sergio aguero after that awful defeat to croatia and they did leave it late. we were looking to 5ee leave it late. we were looking to see if we all mess he would be on form and he answered that very quickly. —— lionel messi. a lovely touch and he made it 1—0, but then the nigerian defender wrestled to the nigerian defender wrestled to the ground, var will always spot that and victor mo5e5 scored the penalty. the clock was ticking. argentina were packing their bags to go home. they had to get the win. what a winner it was from marcus, a
9:16 pm
beautiful volley that breathed life back into the world cup campaign. amazing, in saint petersburg. you should have seen some of the faces that diego wa5 should have seen some of the faces that diego was making in the stands there. i'm not sure how he twice arrived that match. reminds me of that got this right, but is it right that got this right, but is it right that the other day needed to go argentina's way as well for them to survive? absolutely. that might not have been enough because if i squint had won their game against croatia then argentina would be out —— if iceland had won their game. you put it together with that argentina 2—1 win, but croatia won anyway. they are win, but croatia won anyway. they u win, but croatia won anyway. they are group winners win, but croatia won anyway. they are group winner5 going through with three wins out of three. they were put 1—0 three wins out of three. they were put1—0 up. three wins out of three. they were put 1—0 up. alford scored the goal against argentina in the opening draw. he got another one. iceland could begin to believe because they knew that another goal and then they would go through and argent —— at
9:17 pm
argentina's expense, but things were rounded up for what is a very good croatian side. they made nine changes, they knew that they would probably be able to get a result against iceland which they did. group b has been done, argentina are through. don't go anywhere because we will talk about what happened earlier in the day as well. one of the game, france, denmark certainly one to miss. entirely boring game from beginning to end. lot5 one to miss. entirely boring game from beginning to end. lots of people started making this comparison that 5prung to my mind and maybe yours a5 comparison that 5prung to my mind and maybe yours as well. denmark france 2018 or west germany ver5u5 austria 1982? hard to tell the difference. that with a famous game or infamous game in spain at the world cup there when those two sides ju5t world cup there when those two sides just passed the ball around and didn't really try and score. i don't think he was quite as bad as1982, but i don't think any of us will be ordering the dvd. know, after that 1982 match called
9:18 pm
the disgraced and it was because of that match that feat but decided that match that feat but decided that all group game should be played at the same time —— before decided. the same time in the same round. that was a direct result. denmark and france pretty awful because we knew friends were already through an denmark needing a place that it was pretty predictable. there was one other match in that group and that socceroo sign off from russia with a good win against australia —— 5aw peru. looking like a man loves a wall chart, we are filling in ours here in the shadow of the kremlin will stop we can now see who is going to be playing you. argentina going to be playing you. argentina going through, the pick of the last 16 matches. fir5t going through, the pick of the last 16 matches. first up on saturday argentina, france. how about that one? denmark are going to be playing croatia. ten teen5 one? denmark are going to be playing croatia. ten teens are definitely through. i will talk you through some of the other match as we can look forward to —— ten teens. croatia and denmark, ru55ia,
9:19 pm
look forward to —— ten teens. croatia and denmark, russia, spain, portugal uruguay, that was sorted yesterday. we know england and belgium are through. they don't know who they will get. the matches we have tomorrow group e and f are wide open. brazil and germany involved, seven of eight teen5 can still get through to the last 16 and group eachi5 through to the last 16 and group each is wide open as well. we will get that thursday so still plenty to be decided —— group each. the headline here argentina, they live again. thank you. you are right i do like a wall chart but we have a big screen as well which we think of being at flight update. there's been a series of incidents this world cup where female have been grabbed while on air. julia guimarae5 was covering japan v senegal in yekaterinburg on sunday for brazilian tv — and this played out. don't do that. never do this again 0k? don't don't do that. never do this again ok? don't do that. i won't allow you to do that. ever. ok? this is not
9:20 pm
polite, it is not right. but i did actually say sorry having been reprimanded live on air. turning back to the world cup tomorrow. let's now turn back to a story we covered this time yesterday. harley—davidson i5 covered this time yesterday. harley—davidson is moving some production oversea5. the reason was new eu tariffs on us export5 that were brought in after donald trump introduced tariffs on eu steel and aluminium. today the president has responded. harley— davidson is using harley—davidson is using that as an use, andl harley—davidson is using that as an use, and i don't like that because i've been very good to harley— davidson and they used it i've been very good to harley—davidson and they used it as an excuse and i think the people that rent harleys are not happy with harley— davidson and i would not that rent harleys are not happy with harley—davidson and i would not be either. but mostly companies are coming back to our country. timmy's live from new york. is that true, are mostly companies coming back to america da5h cam is live from new
9:21 pm
york? from toledo for some time we have been reporting on the process of re—shoring, people that are not ju5t american manufacturers but international companies bringing manufacturing back to the us because of the complicated nature of supply chains acro55 of the complicated nature of supply chains across the world. the key thing to remember is none of this will make up for the decline in us manufacturing employment that has been happening since the 19705. that i5 been happening since the 19705. that is because the way that the us economy is made up has been changing over the past decades to be more of a 5ervice5 economy than a manufacturing economy. the other thing that has led to the in manufacturing employment is notjust that it has become perhaps more cost—effective for countries to lead my company to locate their factories elsewhere, but also that american workers are prickly getting better at making things so it takes fewer of them on factory floors to manufacture the same amount of goods and that is one of the biggest things that has led to that decline and manufacturing employment. quick word about harleys decision because what is interesting to me is busine55e5 because what is interesting to me is businesses are sometimes having to
9:22 pm
ta ke businesses are sometimes having to take a position on a ko policy and a5 take a position on a ko policy and as such they are becoming political whether they want to or not —— a donald trump policy. whether they want to or not —— a donald trump policylj whether they want to or not —— a donald trump policy. i think one of the interesting things donald trump mention wa5 the interesting things donald trump mention was this idea that harley—davidson wa5 mention was this idea that harley—davidson was deliberately moving manufacturing abroad and hurting its base here. obviously we 5aw hurting its base here. obviously we saw the company decided to open a tight manufacturing facility in 2017 at the same time it said it would be closing one in kansas city. some union members said that was delivered, it was delivered the moving labour oversea5. delivered, it was delivered the moving labour overseas. the company at the time however said they made that decision because the us decided to pull out of the transpacific trade partnership and they said they we re trade partnership and they said they were locating the factory in thailand to try to avoid some steep import tariffs in the region of something like 60% so it all has to do with a pretty complicated nature of trade policies here that president trump seems intent on undoing, at least in the months to come. thank you, we will check tomorrow. let us live from new york to london.
9:23 pm
huber has a would've been the this new license including 5trict conditions on the company being accused of gung ho behaviour in the past. and cordoba last couple of days they have really stepped back. they have kind of admitted that they were wrong to change that ruling and they we re wrong to change that ruling and they were not in the company. the case has been they have reformed, they have come to agreements with the co nsta ble have come to agreements with the constable from london to behave better, have new protocols, they have new people to enforce. giving her ruling, the chief magistrate wa5 pretty scathing in her description of the behaviour of the company over recent yea r5. of the behaviour of the company over recent years. she said it showed a gung ho attitude, seemed to want to grow the business come what may. and it was obviously on a knife edge whether or not this license would be granted. she did eventually say yes, you can have a license for 15 months but made it clear this was very much a probationary period. back to a story we looked at last week — a carbon dioxide shortage in europe.
9:24 pm
and as this article on our website explains, co2 is essential to the food and drink industry — and there's a shortage of it. that's now having an impact. here's chiyo robertson. it might be hard to beleive in the midst of a world cup, beer and cider but is being rationed because of a shortage of co2 used in carbonated drinks. booker, which is owned by tesco, is limiting customers to 10 cases of beer, and five of cider or soft drinks. co2 not only puts the fizz into our drinks but also keeps packaged food fresh and is used to stun animals before they're slaughtered. but europe is in the middle a shortage of commercially—produced co2. and it's hitting the food and drinks industry. coca—cola has halted some production as a precaution. while, one abattoir in britain had to close its doors today. the food and drink industry believes supplies will begin returning to normal in earlyjuly. (duration:0'10)
9:25 pm
a couple of updates on business stories we are covering. chuck schumer saying donald trump getting per delete a corporation like the the tax giveaway will mean more jobs. many corporate executives announced they bought that spivack and lay off american workers playing into what i've been talking about with kim. please companies make decisions they may be driven not by political considerations but simply by financial ones. they get sucked into an ever increasing politicized discourse in the us. uber has now been found but believed that an proper to operate in london and however it's been given a list of things it needs to do in order to continue to bejudged of things it needs to do in order to continue to be judged to of things it needs to do in order to continue to bejudged to be of things it needs to do in order to continue to be judged to be that. back with you in a couple of minutes. thank you forjoining me as ever at
9:26 pm
this time. we are on a mission to ta ke this time. we are on a mission to take you far and wide across the world to bring you the very latest on developing weather stories. first of all to canada and the us. nothing particularly unusual about this satellite imagery in that we got girls of cloud showing the presence of major areas of low pressure over the western side of canada, another to the south of the lakes, expecting pretty stormy conditions from that. i often wonder what is going on in those areas that don't have the major storms and this is exactly what's going on at the moment across the top end of california where the governor of california was moved to declare a state of emergency has a number of dwellings have already been burned and a number of people have had to be evacuated because there is heat aplenty across the southern and western states of the usajust at southern and western states of the usa just at the moment. heat not such an issue moving across the ocea ns to such an issue moving across the oceans to south asia where a monsoon is very much in hand at the moment.
9:27 pm
torrential downpour of across the western shores of india and also to those areas neighbouring on the top end of the bay of bengal and the indian ocean. we have seen some 26 cm of rain falling just in the north of mumbai within the past 2a hours or so. of mumbai within the past 2a hours orso. mumbai of mumbai within the past 2a hours or so. mumbai itself has been flooded, but the major concern because the way toward the northeast of india where roundabouts the area of india where roundabouts the area of the highest level of warning from indian authorities is in force as we speak and indeed right through to the weekend. such as the deluge from that monsoon. none too subtle but the moment across the islands of japan and some of that rain linking back to the far south of the korean peninsula. we have also seen real issues with letting and fatalities from those floods across the southwestern quarter of china and also into the north of vietnam. by contrast things are good deal quieter as we come to australia. high pressure trying to dominate but you will see it is not doing quite
9:28 pm
enough to keep the fronts addae from those australian bank shores in the far south wet and windy here and if you are talking to the new zealanders over the next couple of days don't harp on about the heat because their top temperature on the day is 12—1a and night—time frost abound. we have heat in the british isles and the high pressure that is settling things for us is really doing its stuff across the northwestern corner of europe. what a contrast there for as we come down into the southeast where an area of low pressure is keeping it very, very unsettled indeed. likely to do so right through on into thursday andindeed so right through on into thursday and indeed the weekend as some of the unsettled weather showing signs of wanting to spill a little further toward the north and indeed to the west as well. in the short term athens and rome we can certainly match those thanks forjoining thanks for joining an thanks forjoining an outside source. the main stories we're covering the bbc newsroom. the us supreme court says the trump travel ban is legal. a tremendous success and a
9:29 pm
tremendous victory for the american people and for our constitution. is a great victory for our constitution. we'll bring the latest on the migrant crisis in europe. after five days stranded at sea, a boat with more than 200 people will dock in malta — after a deal was cut with italy and france. a spanish doctor has appeared in court accused of stealing a baby during the the franco dictatorship. it's suspected that 10005 were stolen by different doctors. bbc mundo will be live on that. we will also go to zimbabwe. close to the election there. and there are concerns about violence. we've had a ceremony with all the parties say they are renouncing. italy and malta have resolved a five day stand—off over what should
9:30 pm
happen to this german rescue ship which is carrying migrants. it's called lifeline — and it's had over 200 people on board since thursday. since then both italy and malta have refused to let it dock. well, this deal means it will now go to malta — but italy and five other eu states will end up receiving some of the migrants. lifeline has been telling us that conditions on board are worsening. just now, the first one had to be evacuated due to medical emergency. trying to put pressure on the countries to resolve this. all of this continues to put italy's new interior minister matteo salvini right in the centre of things. he's hailed this agreement — highlighting that last week another rescue ship was forced to head to spain after italy said no. not every boat is being turned away. yesterday we talked about this dutch
9:31 pm
cargo ship which had picked over 100 migrants. it was off the port of pozzallo on sicily. well it's been allowed to dock. matteo salvini was asked why this ship was given permission. here's his answer. translation: because we have a good heart unlike emmanuel macron. they will no longer dock in italian ports. the dutch container had people are rescued from the italian coast guard. foreign s&l with foreign flags of foreign investors will no longer dock in italian ports. i've already said it and i repeated. emmanuel macron is visiting rome. he will surely be a will to deceive all of those people. as you heard there, mr salvini references that emmanuel macron is in rome.
9:32 pm
he's there in part three to renew an ancient tradition by receiving the title of first and only honorary canon at the vatican. there's a political dimension to this as well. last week, mr macron accused italy of cynicism and irresponsibility for refusing to let the aquarius dock. a little while ago he held a press conference — and was sounding a bit more diplomatic. translation: i can confirm that france will be one of the few member states that will pick up people on the left find ship today. and french officials aren't already on their way to malta to be able to carry out the mission. more on those political tensions in europe in a moment. first, gavin lee is on board the rescue ship aquarius. this is his latest update. the aquarius is currently off the
9:33 pm
coast of italy and that's as far as we can go because the italians today has said this charity run ship and other ngo ships cannot go to italian ports in the words of matteo salvini the interior minister said to the bbc in now or anytime in the future. asa ship bbc in now or anytime in the future. as a ship with the group and doctors without borders, we have followed their progress for the last six days. they've been in the search and rescue zone looking to rescue migrants off the coast of libya. we have heard of migrant boats in distress but interestingly each time the italians coordinating the operations instructed the living coast guard to carry out the rescues and intercept them and take them back to libyan detention centres. we're talking about 1000 migrants sea. some staff on board has said it looks like ngo boats are being ordered and not taking distress calls. looks like the position for this boat now is malta are saying it cannot go to port and italians are
9:34 pm
saying the same, so it's on the way back to marseille. eu leaders meet in brussels on thursday and friday. in advance angela merkel has been hosting the spanish prime minister pedro sanchez in berlin. and if you were expecting a big break agreement on the eu's approach to asylum — don't hold your breath. translation: there's a still some time needed to solve this in for this reason i spoke about working with countries that are willing on all dimensions of the migration policy. but here's an example of how migration remains a dominant political issue across the eu. these four are pictures of austrian security forces staging a border control exercise on the country's southern border with slovenia. the was a key crossing point during the height of the migrant crisis in 2015. we're told this is a drill in preparation for any repeat of the crisis. austrian chancellor sebastian kurz has proposed what he called an axis
9:35 pm
of the willing to tighten the bloc‘s external borders. here's our europe editor katya adler on that, speaking from vienna. we spoke to her in rome yesterday. when austria highlights for you is the growing number of european countries were saying listen, if eu wide measures do not work and are not practical or workable or a agreed upon on the ground and failed to stop illegal migration into europe, then we individual countries will take the law into our own hands. austria was famous for this in 2015 at the height of the migrant crisis. as hundreds of thousands of migrants are pouring across the european continent austria along with germany and sweden, these three wealthy countries there took a very large number of asylum seekers and
9:36 pm
ata large number of asylum seekers and at a certain point said no more. closed austrian borders and courage their neighbours to do the exact same thing. this goes against the eu if you liked of all for one and one for all. also got free movement around the concord continent. order shot as countries look around after themselves. as you say it takes over themselves. as you say it takes over the six—month rotating presidency of the six—month rotating presidency of the european union and wants to be top of migration. you can sell out the policy in three words. keep them out. the ha rd—line the policy in three words. keep them out. the hard—line policy and austria says it wants to work with the european union but i underline again what section say is if the eu responses don't work the individual countries will take the matter into their own hands. we had the president of the european commission today warning that migration is an issue that could see them break up the european union. this is a story that people thought would not be told anytime soon. eritrean officials have arrived in ethiopia for the first time in 20 years the delegation is visiting to ease decades of tension.
9:37 pm

his chief of staff tweeted he hopes the visit former eritrean ambassador to the eu anda—bran giorgis outlined the challenges ahead. in ethiopia we have a forward—looking prime minister who has implemented quite dramatic changes during the last three months and eritrea we have a backward looking regime that is very oppressive that has its own problems in the government has local institutions and is known for its gross violations of human rights so there are difficulties here. inafew

in a few minutes we're going to compare track # this is america don't slipping up you will at least have seen that video or heard about it and now they're servicing of a 2016 rap track they say has a remarkable similarities. borisjohnson has called for all nations to support the uk's proposal to give the world's chemical weapons watchdog the power to assign blame for attacks. speaking at the hague, the foreign secretary said the world could not allow the use of chemical weapons to become normalised. our correspondent at the hague, anna holligan was listening to mrjohnson's speech. this is all about the attribution of blame, so the organisation for the prohibition of chemical weapons is the global guardian if you like the chemical weapons convention and has
9:40 pm
the power to investigate the circumstances surrounding attacks, has the power to investigate the alleged substance abuse but does not have the power to attribute blame and that, in theory, according to a delegation led by borisjohnson means that those states who are allegedly using these banned chemicals have a license to act with impunity and the needs to be some kind of body able to point the finger of blame. the uk has tabled this motion here trying to garner support among the members of the opc wto support among the members of the opc w to support this motion that would give them the extra powers to find out who is actually responsible for using these chemicals. poor shots and talked today about the breaking of the taboos surrounding the use of chemical weapons that are 193 companies signed up to the convention. in theory they say they should all support anything that will help to allow it to uphold this
9:41 pm
global prohibition. we have actually heard a lot from russia today. brush object to the uk motion and they say that it would undermine the opc w ability to do its job and we're expecting more delegations and is actually a limit on this. they have set a 2a—hour time limit for deliberations and we're expecting a vote around 1330 tomorrow. this is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. our lead story. victory for president trump as the us supreme court upholds his ban on travellers from five muslim—majority countries. let's turn to the main stories. syria's army has launched an assault on rebel—held areas of the divided city of deraa, after making significant gains elsewhere in the country's south—west. that area has been relatively calm
9:42 pm
due to a de—escalation agreement that has been in place since last july. but the syrian government has since set its sights on retaking it. some a5,000 people have been displaced by the fighting un investigators have accused government troops and militiamen in the democratic republic of congo of committing war crimes in the restive central kasai region. this is doing well online — a bullet train themed around the japanese cartoon character and marketing phenomenon hello kitty. it will be in operation for three months of osaka and fukuoka on saturday. their hoping that's exactly the reaction you'll have that. still no sign of those 12 teenage boys and their football coach in thailand. they're missing in a cave network in chiung rai province
9:43 pm
in the north of the country. it's believed they entered target the cave there on saturday and the search began later that day. these bikes and some sports equipment were found outside the cave. jonathan head is with the rescue workers. they brought hundreds more people in tojoin this operation. they brought hundreds more people in to join this operation. these guys that come from the army and you can see behind me there's probably 50 or 60 people here. what their exact role will be is not clear. everything here has been turned into an appalling sea of mud by the of people. the navy divers who have been trying to get through for the last two days have had no success at allup last two days have had no success at all up till now and it's only now we're starting to see people with real caving experience going into the cave entrance which is just around those bushes there. his is a
9:44 pm
lot going in. a quite narrow area at the cave entrance. we are not sure whether they have got any good news or if they're going to help with rescue. we have seen this coming and going of all sorts of units and people from the border patrol police and people from the marine police going in and out all day long. so far that had nothing good to show for their efforts. this is where you come in to the cave complex as you can see these of the bikes at the boys laughed when they went in on saturday afternoon. they have been down there now for three days and obviously there's real concern about their state of health although it's reasonably warm possibly not too cool inside. the assumption is that they got cut off by rising floodwaters and that they are still alive though. the trouble is, this isa alive though. the trouble is, this is a complex that goes back ten km and the navy divers of the could not get through the narrow passages and they are hoping that some of the
9:45 pm
volu nteers they are hoping that some of the volunteers who have got more experience may have more success. we see a lot of oxygen tanks being brought up and they also have pumps on the other side there which we expect them to start using. it's not clear where they're going to pump the water from what they're trying to get the levels down although with this constant rain it's not clear what success they will have, but this is very, very worrying. for the relatives who have been coming up here and praying at makeshift shrines didn't of any forest a good result for some kind of good news. they still have not had it and still have got no idea what stage those boys are in or which part of the caves they may be located. we will update that tomorrow. zimbabwe's got elections next month. a huge deal — this first since robert mugabe was pushed from power. today we got a commitment from all the political parties to keep the campaign peaceful. they've said so because in bulawayo
9:46 pm
on saturday there was an explosion very close to president mnangagwa. two people died — almost 50 were injured including two of the president's deputies. well this commitment to peace was made at a ceremony today — the president wasn't there — nor was the main opposition leader. the bbc‘s shingai nyoka was though. here's for her assessment of what we saw. many had expected the major players to show up for this ceremony. especially after saturday's attack, but neither president mnangagwa nor the main opposition leader, and fashion of the big names attended. it said the representatives instead. churches, role society groups and smaller political parties were represented here and some of them said they were disappointed at a
9:47 pm
country pub like biggest players missed a golden opportunity to stand united in front of a divided country and givea united in front of a divided country and give a reinsurance of the commitment to peaceful elections. they have given that message to all our operations. and institutions to ensure that all those that want to preach violence and promote the hate speech have been put to book. it's a decision... rather than beating up of people that want to attend meetings or harassment of people thereafter. it's what you might call soft or intimidation. we have
9:48 pm
obviously had various commitments of peace in the past, but practically the position has been otherwise. i just hope that in the signing of this peace pledge today it's going to start a new trajectory. this ceremony has been in planning for weeks and prior to the incident on saturday had been seen as a largely symbolic gesture but after the weekend is a real recognition of how vulnerable this country can be to instability. full coverage of the elections when they come around. most of you will have seen or at least heard about childish gambino's video this is america. it appeared a few weeks back and instantly went viral. well now there's an accusation it's ripping off another track. here's the video. this is america don t catch you slippin up don t catch you slippin up look what i m whippin up this is america don t catch you slippin up
9:49 pm
don t catch you slippin up look what i m whippin up look at how i m livin now police be trippin now then someone posted on reddit that it sounded a little too close to a 2016 track by the rapper jase harley. judge for yourself. woke up in the morning broke all my chains money's my language but i'm nobody‘s slave open my eyes see the crabs in the barrel ‘cause i'm on the rise an american pharaoh ahh, i m young and i m an american pharaoh they try to attack and embarrass us y'all don't want your this is not just this is notjust about the two it's about the message. as this tweet says, for subject matter, tempo, beat variation, flow and cadence to all be exact it does raise an eyebrow.
9:50 pm
plenty of people are saying they are not exact and that's the discussion playing out. jase harley has posted on instagram. he says he thinks he did inspire childish gambino but he seems quite relaxed about this. i feel extremely humbled to be recognised and labelled as one of, or the original inspiration, for one of the most important pieces of music and visual art of our time. but please don't let this controversy dilute the message me and childish gambino are trying to convey. he also implies that he has no interest in taking legal action and that he'd be happy with a shout out. we'll see if he gets one. this is a screen grab of a now—deleted tweet by childish gambino's manager which seems to deny any inspiration or plagiarism. it says the internet is a place of no consequences. this song is three years old and we have pro tools files to prove it. i asked roh—sheen hastie from bbc newsbeat what she thought.
9:51 pm
i think they sound similar, i think there's no denying that and people are on twitter and have a right to be saying the beats on these or similarand tempo is be saying the beats on these or similar and tempo is similar, even the subject matter of the above covering is very similar. they both reflecting their experience of black oppression and the violence in america. i think people, the way in which has begun are saying these two tracks have been copied and it think how this can back track is a copy. he seems her mark of the chilled out. he's taking in stride and happy that people are discovering his music. people saying this whole debate has made it go and look at his music and i like his music. he's quite happy about that. he does not seem to be wanting to take any legal action and has not indicated that's the case. he would maybe like a shout out from childish gambino and his team for perhaps being an influence and when he first heard this is america he did think it was inspired. but at the instagram post
9:52 pm
but has been answering questions for me is that right? instagram post has attract a lot of attention because of this thread and discussion on reddit. offensive and asking them direct questions saying what did you think of the song when he first heard it? how do you feel about it? he has been replying to them and quite happy about it. hejust he has been replying to them and quite happy about it. he just wants love and he said he wants people to focus on the messages in the song rather than was plagiarized ? focus on the messages in the song rather than was plagiarized? i'm not suggesting he's not sincere in his sentiments, but you imagine if you look across some case history from the past months are thinking there is some money to be made here because we seen big plagiarism cases in the past. one that springs to mind is the blurred lines song. marvin gaye's is a status that it was plagiarized and ended up winning £7 million from that. this is big money if you want to take it to court and to get that far. and coldplay were involved in one case. old play, ed sheerin, semi big high—profile cases like this that
9:53 pm
perhaps down the line they will want to ta ke perhaps down the line they will want to take legal action but everyone is taking ina to take legal action but everyone is taking in a good tone. we have not heard from childish gambino and there's no statement from him in the team. we will just see willjust see on this one.|j willjust see on this one. i will leave you with the first half of the knockout stage of the world cup which has not been completed. you will have france against argentina in two big teams not playing very well at the moment. tomorrow, we will get sorted out and full coverage on the bbc sport website. see you tomorrow. hello. on monday it was around the london area we saw our first 30 degrees day of the week. on tuesday the warmest of the air was to be found. 31 degrees through the afternoon. for wednesday the warm
9:54 pm
air wasps north and west. could be scotla nd air wasps north and west. could be scotland and northern ireland were received a peek and heat again and another 30 degrees day possible. the reason the air has been pushing its way north and west because of the high pressure. since the east clockwise winds around it. the centre of the hyatt barely a breath of wind and very light winds stagnating. causing mist and fog to form. that will lap onto the shores of scotla nd form. that will lap onto the shores of scotland and england and on and off throughout wednesday and certainly any cloud inland burning back to the closed. two bridges down in the low 205 but elsewhere why the mid to high 205 and as i said past scotla nd mid to high 205 and as i said past scotland to the west of other islands we could see temperatures above 30 degrees singer warmest conditions there since 1995. into thursday a high pressure still with us thursday a high pressure still with us and we still flowing north and west and so we could still see temperatures 30 degrees or so towards western scotland and some low clouds becoming a little bit
9:55 pm
less of a feature. more of a feature would be clouds spinning into parts of shetland and also across orkney. mid to high 205 and the key cuts continues and will continue to a certain degree for something to friday but there are a few changes. in doing so we drag an our wins for more of a northeast direction bringing ina more of a northeast direction bringing in a slightly cooler feet ofairand still bringing in a slightly cooler feet of air and still would be pretty hot in the sunshine and temperatures down the middle parts of the week. more clout to northern and eastern areas and patchy cloud down eastern coasts of north east england by but by this stage the warm areas back down south across parts of wales in southern england were temperatures are into the high 205. we have a working all week the weather holds for saturday. high pressure starting to inch away a little bit but not much wind around. blue skies overhead and ea rly—morning much wind around. blue skies overhead and early—morning mist and fog clearing and it will still be a pretty warm if not very hot day with
9:56 pm
temperatures into the high 205 across england and wales especially. still holding around a 20 degrees mark for so eastern coast. it has been too hot for you to sign the changes as we go into sunday and beyond. these air of low pressure pushing up will start things off. it will turn more humid with that and i will turn more humid with that and i will be the downside, but maybe the first significant rain in a number of weeks across parts of central and southern england and wales, some of the heavy, sundry torrential in place. positions literally at this stage but for the north and east will stay dry and so pleasantly warm in the sunshine. all coming about by a change in thejet in the sunshine. all coming about by a change in the jet stream in the sunshine. all coming about by a change in thejet stream position. for this week it has been on which the north with low—pressure systems north and down into the east of europe. but, get to next week the jet stream for the week. that is what is helping the low—pressure to develop and stay in position through a good part of next week. so getting around will sue the risk of
9:57 pm
thunderstorms moabite there by no means going to hit everyone. that sunshine will still come with a bit of warmth and temperatures getting close to where they should be for this time of year but if not still a little bit above average. more fresh and breezy towards the end. this is bbc news i'm shaun ley. the headlines at ten a british man has been convicted of planning a terror attack in westminster and of making bombs for the taliban. two people have died and 12 others have been injured after a collision between a bus and a lorry in cambridge5hire. the us supreme court upholds donald trump's ban on people from a number of muslim majority countries travelling to the united states. prince william has been visiting israel. he paid his respects at the world holocaust remembrance centre injerusalem, and called for peace in the region i know i share a desire with all of you — and with your neighbours — for a just and lasting peace. as uk temperatures exceed 30 degrees for the first time this year, the met office issues a yellow health warning because of heatwave conditions lasting
