hello, i'm karin giannone. this is outside source. the white house reimposes sanctions on tehran, three months after donald trump announced he was pulling america out of the iran nuclear deal. thousands are evacuated from indonesia's lombok island after a powerful earthquake — the second to hit the area in a week. 98 people are confirmed dead. the bbc speaks to two men accused of being part of a notorious is cell which tortured and beheaded prisoners in syria. and we look at what's behind the record—breaking temperatures causing wildfires and severe droughts around the world. (titles) the us is reimposing sanctions on iran, with the first round to take effect in just a few hours‘ time. they'll target tehran‘s

ability to buy american dollars, its metals trade, coal and auto—sector. a more damaging wave of sanctions will hit iran's oil sector in november. tehran‘s president hassan rouhani has called it us ‘psychological warfare.‘ trump and his government are the ones who have rejected negotiations and have turned their back on diplomacy. what he is doing is against the iranian nation and against the national interests of iran. iran is ready for diplomacy if there is honesty in the process. president trump insists sanctions will force tehran to agree to a new nuclear deal and end what he calls its ‘malign activities‘. in may, he walked out of the landmark nuclear agreement, calling it the worst deal ever. here‘s his national security adviser, john bolton, defending washington‘s position. they could take up the president‘s offer to negotiate with them, to give at their ballistics missiles and nuclear weapons programmes fully and really verify when not under

the onerous terms of the iran nuclear deal which is not satisfactory, to stop their support for international terrorism and give up military activities in the region. this is a complete package. the president has spoken to numerous european leaders about this. if iran were really serious, they would come to the table. iran‘s foreign minister mohammad javad zarif sent this warning today — saying washington‘s bullying, economic power and political pressure may have led to some disruptions in iran but today the us is isolated in the world . washington‘s move has also caused friction with europe. today it strengthened a law called the ‘blocking statute‘ that‘ll protect eu companies doing legitimate business with iran from the impact of us extra—territorial sanctions." iran is already facing huge economic pressure. its currency has taken a dive. it‘s lost half of its value since april. that, plus soaring unemployment, has triggered this response inside iran. protests on the streets.

this was taken on saturday. videos similar to this one have been appearing on social media in recent days showing people marching in several cities. some are heard chanting ‘death to the dictator‘ and carrying signs with radical slogans. iranian authorities accuse washington and israel of backing them. here‘s bbc persian correspondent amir paivar. president rouhani seems to be too relaxed as a president for a country that is facing a convergence of crises, economic, social and political, especially a country that is facing such sanctions starting tomorrow. he kind of underplayed, probably he does underestimate the impact it will have on negotiations with the us. he said the president trump cannot be trusted. they have gone one step back

with the mention of no precondition negotiations but they have to go all the way back to before time president trump pulled out of iran nuclear deal. hejoked. he said, we can negotiate. we do not have any preconditions. we have to do is pay us all the damages we have suffered for the past a0 years. he was not quite taking it very seriously. on sanctions, you seem to think that iran still has this window of three months until november, november the 4th, when the more serious sanctions, those on iran‘s oil sector and banking will it. there is still a window of three months. for what? i don‘t know because he did reject the idea of negotiations with the united states. when president trump talks about

this as being a way to make iran agree to a new nuclear deal, that is at this stage far—fetched. people are comparing this to the way he dealt with north korea. the sanctions will be painful and have already been painful to the iranian economy and they will continue to be like that. iran will lose its access to us dollar and cash and will lose its access to gold. these are the only tentative to normal banking which iran was using in the last round of sanctions in 2012, trying to sell and buy using gold, trying to barter. all of those will, as of tomorrow, be difficult for iranian government. so, apparently, it seems there has to be even more painful economic impact on iran for iran to accept the idea of negotiations. about 10,000 people

have been evacuated from the indonesian island of lombok, after a 6.9 magnitude earthquake hit on sunday morning. right now the number of dead stands at 98 people. this was the moment the quake struck. the earthquake struck exactly one week after another strong quake killed 16 people. indonesian presidentjoko widodo says this latest quake has been more devastating. this is where the epicentre is — north of lombok — where

there‘s massive damage. and taking a look closer, here are the three gili islands — very popular with tourists. and boats have been sent to evacuate more than 1,000 visitors from those islands. let‘s take a look at the situation everyone in lombok has been facing today. this video was shot by an indonesian officer. it shows thousands of people on the beach at gili trawangan, also known as gili t, waiting to be evacuated off the holiday island. the indonesian national search and rescue is helping to evacuate people. presidentjoko widodo has called for more flights to be sent to the affected areas, especially to get the any casulties to safety. in the worst affected areas, power and communications has been cut off. perhaps understandably, many people are too frightened to go home, resorting to sleeping outdoors. search and rescue crews have been

searching through the rubble of destroyed buildings, looking for any survivors — or more bodies. and i want to play you these clips from some icelandic tourists. thankfully we were outside. we were going to watch a movie but everything just like went blank and it was terrible. i‘m from iceland. i know earthquakes but this is the biggest one i‘ve ever felt. it's so sad to see people here making money out of people's misery and chance in1 million to get on the bus to get away from here. there's no power here. we don't get to touch our phones. we're just stuck here. mehulika sitepu is in lombok for the bbc‘s indonesian service. she sent this report. in the fresh light of day,

a sense of the scale of the damage. homes and buildings reduced to rubble and a desperate hunt for those who may have survived. translation: my son and wife al survived but my nephew hurt his head and he died from the damage from the wall. there are also three children who died. hundreds are injured and medical staff are struggling to cope with the numbers turning up at the hospitals in the main city. we should try to minimise the effects of this earthquake as quickly as possible, be it evacuation of the dead or the injured. they should be treated as well as they can be. hundreds of tourists are among those stranded. the normally serene paradise beaches covered in swarms of people desperate to lead by any means possible but there are not enough votes.

some at the island‘s airport though are managing to leave. we are currently in the airport. as soon as the earthquake hit, we booked our flight to just get home straightaway. but for locals here the quake comes all too after the one last week which displays 10,000 people from their homes. a further 10,000 are expected to join them in rescue camps like this, where they can find food, water and shelter. the tsunami threat has been lifted and no further large tremors are predicted but the death toll is expected to rise. donald trump has admitted his son met a russian lawyer injune 2016 "to get information on an opponent". but the president says it was legal. you might remember the meeting of donald trump jr with kremlin—linked lawyer natalia

veselnitskaya. that meeting is being investigated by this man — robert mueller — as part of his inquiry into russia‘s alleged role to help mr trump win. president trump denies any collusion. trump tweeted "this was a meeting to get information on an opponent, totally legal and done all the time in politics — and it went nowhere. i did not know about it!" i spoke to anthony zurcher in washington about it. well, the legality is an open question. if the donald trump campaign team took any sort of benefit from a foreign government or national, that is a violation of campaignfinance national, that is a violation of campaign finance laws. you are not allowed to do that. and there is the question as to whether anyone in the donald trump campaign had any clue about russian efforts to hack democratic officials. that is a crime knowledge of that and benefiting from that could get dangerously close to criminal conspiracy. the legality of an open question based on what we could learn, or what robert muller‘s

investigation already knows. people gather information on their opponents all the time, opposition research all the time, that is a normal part of us political campaigns. people in the hillary clinton‘s campaign were trying to dig up dirt on donald trump. what usually happens is that is firewall from the heart of the campaign. he has donald trump‘s top officials here. that is a key distinction. donald trump, in his tweet seems to be saying something very different to how he described a meeting about year ago. it was supposed to be about the adoption of russian children by american citizens.“ you remember, the timeline on this, initially the new york times ran a story about the trump tower meeting and donald trump junior story about the trump tower meeting and donald trumpjunior issued a statement which we have since learned was drafted in part by his father, saying this was about

adoptions. then it became clear that e—mails are going to come out and donald trump junior eventually released the e—mails that detailed that the media was originally pitched as information that could be damaging to hillary clinton and the russian government and its nationals wa nted russian government and its nationals wanted to help the donald trump campaign. after that you saw donald trump back away from that. in july of 2017 he tweeted out and said, while this would not have been a crime, it happens all the time, it was just crime, it happens all the time, it wasjust opposition crime, it happens all the time, it was just opposition research. crime, it happens all the time, it wasjust opposition research. this wasjust opposition research. this was a very direct statement to that effect. moving to moscow. us senator rand paul is there and has invited russian senators to washington for talks. mr paul‘s trip to moscow is the second us political delegation to visit russia in the space of a month. here‘s our moscow correspondent steve rosenberg ssource this is the federation council, the upper house of the russian parliament. russian senators should be on parliament. russian senators should beona parliament. russian senators should be on a summer holidays right now

but a small group of senators has been called back because of what is happening in the room behind me for that that is because a us delegation is here, led by american senator rand paul girvan meeting a senior group of russian senators about how to boost relations between russia and america. one of them, a russian ambassador to washington back in 2016 when washington allegedly interfered in the american presidential election. this is a controversial visit. four days ago the american most senior intelligence to you at each cheese announced that russia is continuing effo rts announced that russia is continuing efforts to try to undermine american democracy. they agreed to keep on talking. we have invited members of the committee to come to the united states with us to meet in washington. we have also agreed if it can be arranged to me as well in

neutral country with all of our committees. i think this is incredibly important and those who believe in either country that we should not have diplomacy, are greatly mistaken. it sounds as though the talk around the table was of corporation. look at what is happening in america. a bipartisan group of senators called for tough sanctions against russia. it is hard to see how the corporation is going to see how the corporation is going to build. stay with us on outside source. still to come... chinese state media lashes out at president trump over his threats to impose more tariffs. we look into this unusually personal attack, and what it means of us—china relations. the question is whether we want to

win the warortake the question is whether we want to win the war or take a chance on being able to win the war with our young man. mr bush like most other people was clearly caught by surprise. we call for the immediate and unconditional withdrawal of all the iraqi forces. 100 years old and still full of vigour, vitality and enjoyment of life. no other king or queenin enjoyment of life. no other king or queen in british history has lived so queen in british history has lived so long and the queen mother has said to be quietly very pleased indeed she has achieved this landmark anniversary. this is a pivotal moment for the church as an international movement. the question now is whether the american boat will lead to a split in the anglican community. —— american vote. this is outside source live

from the bbc newsroom. our lead story is... the white house reimposes sanctions on tehran — three months after donald trump announced he was pulling america out of the iran nuclear deal. other stories on the bbc world service at least two people have been killed and 55 injured when an oil tanker exploded on a motorway close to bologna, in northern italy. the blast happened when the tanker collided with several cars. the accident caused a bridge to partly collapse and even shattered the windows of some houses close to the scene. several people are in a critical condition. the renowned french chef, joel robuchon, has died in the swiss city of geneva at the age of 73. mr robuchon had won more than 30 michelin stars , more than any other chef in the world, running gourmet restaurants across europe, north america and asia. we‘ve talked about extreme temperatures across the globe

quite a lot this summer. and it‘s not over yet. these are some of the pictures coming into the newsroom. let‘s start in the us — the california wildfires continue to burn. donald trump declared a "major disaster" in the state on sunday, ordering federalfunding to be made available to help recovery efforts. the mendocino complex fire, has destroyed at least 68 homes and forced thousands to flee. science journalist laurie garrett has summarised the rate of the fire‘s growth, noting how just overnight the fire has gone from being the state‘s 5th largest ever, to the second largest ever. next, let‘s go to portugal. a fire in the town of monchique has been raging for three days despite the efforts of hundreds of firefighters and airborne support. 2a people have been injured. and it‘s notjust the algarve region that is in danger — as this map from the portuguese met office shows — central, northern and southern parts of the country are also at risk.

asia is also experiencing a heatwave. we‘ve talked about japan before. the number of people killed by the heat has now risen to 120. north and south korea are also seeing record temperatures. and in eastern australia, despite the fact that it is now winter there, there‘s a severe drought. 99% of new south wales, which is the country‘s most populous state and provides around a quarter of the country‘s agricultural output, is currently in drought. measures have been put in place to help stricken farmers. here s prime minister malcolm turnbull. australian farmers are resilient. they plan for drought. they good managers but it can become really overwhelming. this is the worst

drought in new south wales since the 1965 drought. if you think there might be a pattern to these weather extremities, then you are not alone. a un report on global temperatures is due to be published in october this year, having been requested by world leaders as part of the 2015 paris agreement from which president donald trump withdrew the us last year. professorjoanna haigh spoke to us earlier about the direction the climate is going in. what we have at the moment is a very wea k what we have at the moment is a very weak jet stream and what we have at the moment is a very weakjet stream and some weather patterns have got stuck and we have hot patches over parts of the globe. some worksjust this hot patches over parts of the globe. some works just this will happen more frequently as the globe warms. but it is very difficult for us to say at the moment. we think, as the globe warms, this is more likely to ta ke globe warms, this is more likely to take place. there will be more weather extremes, more heat waves, more floods, more big storms. this is expected to come about in response to climate change.

in a stinging and unusual personal attack, china‘s ruling communist party‘s people‘s daily newspaper said president trump was starring in his own "street fighter—style drama" as trade tensions continue to mount all of this comes after china announced tariffs on more than 5,000 us goods worth $60 billion late on friday. beijing said those would come into effect if the us proceeded with tariffs on $200 billion of chinese exports. the us and china already implemented tariffs on $34 billion worth of each other‘s goods injuly. paul blake is in new york. this kind of personal attack is quite rare from the chinese. what has been the reaction? it seems to stem back to the tweet by donald trump sent out on saturday saying the tablets were working far better than anyone had expected. this

morning, monday morning in china, we have two newspapers coming out, the people‘s daily overseas addition, the official newspaper of the communist party dress saying it was a 21st—century streetfighter style drama and expecting anyone to play along with wishful thinking. the global times says that the use of donald trump are naive and citing these fluctuations in the chinese market as an evidence that us policies are working is wide of the mark. it said that donald trump has repeatedly used exaggerated language to support his own claims and exert pressure on china. the latest harris would not come into effect until september. so there is time to come to an agreement before that, isn‘t there? it feels more like a wall up of words than a trade war. —— a war of words than a trade war. —— a war of words. there are three different

sets of tariffs. $34 billion was pa rt sets of tariffs. $34 billion was part one. part two was the hundreds of billions of dollars in chinese goods that will potentially be subject to tariffs. that is making its way to rate comment period before it can be implemented. the earliest it could be implemented would be sometime in september, middle late september. then there is the threat of going to 500 essentially ta rot the threat of going to 500 essentially tarot thing all chinese goods coming into the us. —— putting ta riffs goods coming into the us. —— putting tariffs on all chinese goods. indra nooyi — one of the world‘s most influential businesswomen — will step down as the head of pepsico in october. she‘s been a leader in the industry for 12 years and shares in the food and beverage company have risen 78% since she took the helm in 2006. kim gittleson has more on her legacy. she had an amazing man is 12 years at the head of pepsi, one of the welcome mat big as food and beverage manufacturers. she is one of 25 ceos

of countries here on the s and p 500. she is standing out for her strong leadership. while she is focused on returning money to shareholders shields wants to plan for the company‘s long—term future and that meant diversifying away from the sugary soft drinks pepsi is known for. she invested in healthier snacks and beverages in the hopes of attracting a new generation of consumers to the company. i think most observers would say she did a stellar job at the most observers would say she did a stellarjob at the head of pepsi and they are curious to see what she does next. the boss of british airways has complained that two hour queues were becoming the norm for passengers arriving at london‘s heathrow airport. our transport correspondent victoria fritz explains why this is happening. we have the perfect storm. this is europe is back busiest airport and the world‘s second busiest airport

at this time of year we have business groups coming through, lots of groups coming through, children with families and it slows the whole process down. combine all the extra demand with problems with supply. there are fewer border force staff now and there were five years ago. there have been major cutbacks and the controls have become more stringent in terms of baggage checks, four example. it has been a pretty bad summer for lots of people coming in. it is no surprise that the uk border force coming in. it is no surprise that the uk borderforce has missed its own target, 45 minutes wait. it has missed that target over 6000 times already this summer. we have heard of passengers queueing on the tarmac who cannot even get into the terminal building to get any get their passport checked. terminal building to get any get their passport checkedlj terminal building to get any get their passport checked. i will be back after the weather. see you then. temperatures got up to 32 degrees in

queuein temperatures got up to 32 degrees in queue in london. there was this cumulus cloud in port talbot in wales. the cloudy weather will come across wales and northern counties of england overnight with patchy outbreaks of rain developing along the front. the rain will not amount to much but it is particularly weak. a few showers in the north west. a sultry night. epa in east anglia and the south of england. on tuesday further showers in the north—west. the weather front will continue to go eastwards. not much wind. it will not move very far very fast. in east anglia and the south—east, another hot one with temperatures getting into the high 20s to low 30s and peaking around maybe 32, 30 three. away from the east of england we have fresh conditions were temperatures much closer to normal for the time of year, in the high

teens to load 20s. overnight we may well see thunderstorms work in from france, most likely in east anglia and the south of england. either way, as we go through tuesday night, the rain moves out of the way in the week front will continue to push across. that will bring a change to the weather with cooler and fresh air following foot of the atlantic will begin to flex its muscles. on wednesday a day of sunshine and showers. most frequent in the west and in the east not seeing too many showers. in east anglia and the south of england temperatures dropping for some around eight celsius. there will be showers on thursday in the north of the uk. there could be thunderstorms across france and it might run into east anglia and the south—east of england. towards the end of the week there is an increasing signalfor

there is an increasing signalfor the showers on friday to be replaced by general outbreaks of rain on saturday. the reason, we have an area of low pressure, something we have not seen much of in the summer. that will be spreading across the uk and it could be quite a blustery start to the weekend as well. that is the weather. goodbye. hello, i‘m karin giannone. this is outside source. the white house reimposes sanctions on tehran, three months after donald trump announced he was pulling america out of the iran nuclear deal. thousands are evacuated from indonesia‘s lombok island after a powerful earthquake, the second to hit the area in a week. 98 people are confirmed dead. celebrations in south sudan as the country‘s warring parties sign another power—sharing deal they hope will finally end their brutal conflict. the bbc speaks to two men accused of being

part of a notorious is cell which tortured and beheaded prisoners in syria. and we‘ll talk about why saudi arabia has expelled the canadian ambassador to riyadh — and cancelled flights to toronto. to south sudan now. a power—sharing deal has been signed that people hope will end the brutal five—year civil war there. these are the scenes in the capital, juba. an unofficial holiday was declared and businesses were shut as people celebrated. the un welcomed the signing of the agreement, calling it "an important step." but the statement was cautiously worded. and that‘s typical of the tone of many commentators. here‘s the wall streetjournal‘s africa correspondent. here‘s beryl wambani

with the story of the day. for the last five years, these two men have stood on opposing sides of a war that has killed tens of thousands of people. but president salva kiir along with former vice president and rebel leader riek machar sat side by side to sign a peace sharing deal. the accord will restore riek machar as president kiir‘s deputy while appointing four other vice presidents and adding new posts for ministers and lawmakers. to unite our people and work for a peaceful transfer of power through the ballot boxes rather than through the bullet and the barrel of the gun. a similar power—sharing agreement was signed in 2015 but collapsed a year later when mr machar fled

juba on foot. i would urge again the heads of state and government to focus, afterthis, on the implementation of the agreement. south sudan is rich in oil but its economy has been devastated by the conflict. the signing took place in sudan‘s capital khartoum, and was brokered by sudanese president omar al bashir. south sudan will start pumping oil to sudan in september. the warring parties now have three months to form a transitional government which will then hold power for three years and eventually usher in south sudan‘s first elections since it seceded from sudan injuly, 2011. two men accused of being part of a notorious islamic state group

cell have called into question the uk governments attempt to have them tried in the united states. alexanda koty and shafee el sheikh were speaking to the bbc for the first time since the legal moves were made public. they deny being part of the is cell, which was known as the beatles because it was made up of these four men with british accents, all radicalised in the uk before travelling to syria. the other two were mohammed emwazi, nicknamed "jihadijohn", and aine davis. us officials believe they beheaded more than 27 western hostages, including the journalist james foley. the surviving pair are being held at an undisclosed location in northern syria. they spoke to our middle east correspondent, quentin sommerville. for seven months now, alexanda koty and el shafee elsheikh have been held in kurdish and american custody in northern syria. the us government alleges

that the men waterboarded, crucified and executed prisoners as part of a jihadist cell dubbed "the beatles" by the prisoners. what did you do in is? as for the specific details as to what i was doing while living in is—controlled territories, a question i prefer to decline to answer at this present stage. for legal reasons. do you still deny that you were a member of the group known as the beatles which carried out executions and beheadings? yes, of course. el shafee? same question? yeah. the gang is blamed for the brutal killings of britons alan henning and david haines, and the murders of americans james foley, abdul—rahman peter kassig and steven sotloff. kayla mueller was also ta ken captive. none of the bodies of the dead have been found. did you ever meet kayla mueller?

who? kayla mueller. remind me. she was an american ngo worker. we didn't meet any foreign non—muslims. the gruesome videos from the group set a new grim low. defenceless journalists and aid workers were beheaded in front of the camera. the chief executioner was mohammed emwazi, dubbedjihadijohn. but he was only the ringmaster, one of a group of four who imprisoned, tortured and executed as many as 27 prisoners. emwazi was killed by a us drone strike. did the two men know the islamic state‘s most notorious executioner, and did they spend time with him, i asked. he's a friend of mine. jihadijohn? he was nicknamed that, yeah. the emwazi, jihadijohn that the rest of the world knows is an executioner,

someone who‘s been called a psychopath. yeah. somebody who will be remembered for his cruelty and his brutality. that's their way to choose to remember him. i choose to remember him differently. you wouldn‘t condemn his torture and his beheadings of the likes of james foley... i took a position... ..alan henning, and... i took a position of not speaking of him at all in a negative way. so, you‘ve no remorse, there is no shame, it wasn‘t you? i have many regrets, notjust being here, previous to coming here. i have my regrets. not about coming to syria. i told them that britain wants to send them to the united states where they could face the death penalty. what makes the british government want a british citizen to be tried in america? but they‘ve stripped

you of your citizenship. that hasn‘t been confirmed. for now, the fate of alexanda koty and el shafee elsheikh remains uncertain. the government‘s plan, that they face trial in the united states, is under judicial review. former hostages tell us that they want them to face western justice. in the meantime, the two men have been returned to solitary confinement. they are being held under heavy guard at an undisclosed location in northern syria. quentin somerville, bbc news. and here‘s our diplomatic correspondent james landale with more on the accusations levelled against the two men. the british government is very clear, sajid javid said intelligence implicated both men in the murder of a number of individuals including three americans and two britons. the us state department is very

specific, saying that koty was responsible for exceptionally cruel torture methods. what is less clear is whether they will ever face trial. they are being held by kurdish militia, not by the us or british authorities. they have been stripped of their british citizenship, that was confirmed two weeks ago. their alleged victims we re weeks ago. their alleged victims were international. it is thought they should be tried in america because there‘s a feeling there‘s a greater chance of success there. saudi arabia has expelled the canadian ambassador to riyadh in a spat over human rights. last week the canadian government called for the release of women‘s rights activists detained in the kingdom — among them is this woman prominent human rights campaigner samar badawi. here she is with hillary clinton and michelle obama in 2012. she‘s the sister ofjailed blogger raif badawi. saudi arabia says canada is interfering in its domestic affairs, retaliating by freezing all new trade with ottawa.

and in the past hour saudi‘s state airline saudia has said it‘ll suspend flights to and from toronto. here‘s bbc arabic‘s issam ikirmawi. reports from riyadh suggest that people are being taken by surprise by this response by the saudi government. however, it‘s not totally surprising. there have been a couple of precedence this year, ones with germany and before that, with sweden. the ambassadors were summoned, although it wasn‘t as harsh or as direct as this time... however the probably want to show that they should be taken more seriously and should be respected. this tweet by canada‘s foreign minister chrystia freeland was the trigger. the next day, canada‘s foreign ministry demanded

their immediate release. saudi arabia issued a rebuke, expressing "disbelief at this negative unfounded comment, which was not based on any accurate or true information." one newspaper in saudi calls canada‘s comments "false allegations". but this was the message of thanks from one of saudi arabia‘s most prominant activist, manal al—shairif. canada says it is concerned by riyadh‘s response, saying it will a lwa ys riyadh‘s response, saying it will always defend human rights. bbcjournalist rylee carlson is with me. this is escalating now. yes, but it seems that canada and the foreign

minister are standing their ground when it comes to this. saudi arabia has expelled the ambassador. krista friedlander said today that canada will continue standing up for human rights and freedom of expression around the world, that canada will never hesitate to promote these values. so whatever saudi arabia seems to have done at this point it isn‘t stopping the canadian government from holding true to that. standing their ground and the moment, canada. why is canada making this stand ? what‘s moment, canada. why is canada making this stand? what‘s the connection? the connection goes back to 2012. you mentioned the jailed activist and blogger, raif badawi. canada has been quite vocal in trying to get

him released, to force saudi arabia‘s hand in his detention. part of the reason is that his wife claimed asylum in canada and lives there with their three children. she became a citizen earlier this year. the canadian government are very familiar with his case and because his sister is an internationally renowned human rights activist, they seem to have no problem speaking up and calling for the release of both of them. what is at stake for canada, taking this stand against saudi arabia‘s actions? canada, taking this stand against saudi arabia's actions? there is a significant amount of trade between them, although perhaps not each other‘s biggest trading partner, roughly 3 billion us dollars a year. it's roughly 3 billion us dollars a year. it‘s interesting when you hear that saudi arabia felt they could make an example out of canada in this case by putting the freeze on and expelling the diplomats. there‘s a lot of saudi students in canada which are in limbo because saudi

arabia says it is going to freeze scholarships for those who are studying and make plans for those who are there to move. that will have a big effect on many people studying abroad and then there‘s the airline situation that you mentioned. for now it seems to be a little bit tit—for—tat when it comes to what saudi arabia is doing but it seems that significant events are happening. thank you forjoining us. stay with us on outside source, still to come. we‘re in bangladesh where the government is cracking down on mass student protests, triggered by the deaths of two schoolchildren. the england cricketer ben stokes has appeared in court charged with affray after a fight in bristol last september. the jury heard he "lost control" during what was called a sustained episode of significant violence. two other men — ryan ali and ryan hale — are also charged with affray; all three deny the charges. having had to swap the cricket field for the court room,

ben stokes arrived here this morning for the opening day of his trial. dressed in a navy suit, the 27—year—old sat in the dock alongside ryan hale and ryan ali, the two local men he is accused of punching during a late—night brawl in bristol last year. all three defendants are accused of affray, a charge they deny. the jury was told that having been refused re—entry to this nightclub in the early hours of september 25 last year, just hours after he played for england, stokes acted in a provocative and offensive way. he allegedly mocked two openly gay men and according to a bouncer who he insulted, flicked a cigarette butt at one of them. the court was told that later stokes lost his control and started to attack with revenge and retaliation or punishment in mind, well beyond the realm of self defence. not a trivial moment of unpleasantness, but a sustained episode of significant violence that left onlookers shocked. for the prosecution, the barrister said the incident left both hale and and alli unconscious.

the latter had a broken eye socket. the jury was shown cctv and mobile phone footage of the incident along with an audio recording of a 999 call from a witness. just two days ago, stokes was starting for his country at edgbaston, his six wickets helping england win attends opening test match against india. but this case has already cost one of world cricket‘s top talents the england vice captaincy and a place on last winter‘s ashes tour for which he was suspended. the prosecution said that stokes told police he acted in self defence or in the defence of others and the force used was reasonable and entirely justified. the trial is expected to last until early next week. this is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. our lead story. the white house reimposes sanctions on tehran — three months after donald trump announced he was pulling america out of the iran nuclear deal.

police in the us state of new mexico have rescued 11 malnourished children who were being kept in squalid conditions in a remote desert compound. officers from the local sheriff‘s office found the children, aged one to 15 after receiving a message from them, saying: "we are starving and need food and water." five adults, including two heavily—armed men, were found at the scene. earlier today we spoke to cbs‘s laura podesta. the 11 children have been removed from the compound and they are now in the custody of new mexico‘s children, youth and families department. so, new mexico law—enforcement officials found the children while they were looking for a three—year road boy who was allegedly abducted by his father. that man is one of the two arrested but his three—year—old son was not found so they are still

looking for him. those 11 children essentially have no clothing according to investigators, they didn‘t have shoes on. there was no running water, no electricity. and very little food, just some potatoes and a box of rice found. and pictures we‘ve seen from the compound so it‘s a filthy from the compound so it‘s a filthy place. it was surrounded by tyres and barricaded by walls. two men and three women, one of whom were pregnant. the local sheriff says there is reason to believe the three women are the mothers of the 11 children. the two men living on the compound were taken into custody, charged with crimes, one of them for child abduction and the other, harbouring a fugitive. the women we re harbouring a fugitive. the women were taken into custody and released. we are told they are not being cooperative with the investigation. a disturbing story from new mexico.

for more than a week, bangladesh has been gripped by mass protests. they were triggered by the deaths of two schoolchildren — a boy and a girl — who were run over and killed by a speeding bus. it‘s led to a wave of protests. tens of thousands of students took to the streets — blocking roads and bringing the capital to a standstill. they carried banners that read "dhaka university" and many students chanted "we want justice." protests are rare in bangladesh. and after days of peaceful demonstrations, it turned violent. police used tear gas to disperse the protesters over the weekend. and the violence continued today, with more than 40 people, mostly students, injured, after clashing with police. amnesty international called for a stop to the government‘s "violent crackdown" on "overwhelmingly peaceful student protesters". here‘s one of the protesters. translation: we can't accept the government‘s behaviour right now. we‘re here to express solidarity with school pupils who are demanding road safety. the bbc‘s akbar hossein

has more from dhaka. the government blocked mobile internet services for 24 hours in an aim to prevent protest news spreading through social media. renowned bangladeshi photojournalist shahid ul alam was also arrested from his home. his family says that they don‘t know why he was arrested but it is widely believed that he was arrested immediately after an interview with the aljazeera tv station, where he was very critical of the present bangladeshi government. meanwhile police have taken a very high—handed approach to the protesters, saying they won‘t allow any protester on the street. on the other end, protesters have vowed not to return home unless their demand for improved road safety is met. next, we‘ve got a report from southern senegal. a plan by a chinese—australian company to mine a west african coastal dune for valuable minerals there. opponents of the project

say digging up the dune will harm the environment. and there have been claims that the start of mining could reignite an armed rebellion. alex duval—smith reports from casamance. the rich fishing waters of the atlantic wash up against the african continent but the sparkling calm is deceptive. over thousands of years, the waves have brought ashore valuable minerals, a company is set to start digging them up. if it begins, we‘re going to lose our environment. we are going to lose our rice fields. we live in an area that is below sea level. the minerals include zircon, used for imitation diamonds and in the circuit boards of mobile phones. the world is hungry for it. campaigners insist the heavy sand

is what holds back the sea. mining company astron received its licence last year after undertaking to ensure that the june remains strong. still, people resist. the battle for the project is in its sixth year. legal experts are offering to support the community. they believe they may be grounds to challenge the project in court. they suspect there is a lack of understanding of the degree of opposition to mining the dune. the casamance rebels, they want control of the land, the resources. peace talks are under way but people fear more fighting. the bbc secured rare access to their leader, who shows off a seized senegalese army pick—up. translation: that's the loot, part of it. we seized the vehicles during combat.

this isn‘t the only one. there are many others. he warns of dire consequences if mining goes ahead. translation: it amounts to a declaration of war. we have repeatedly agreed with senegal that nothing will be touched until the conflict is settled. independence first, then the rest. we put the rebel leader‘s threat to the mining ministry. we are not going to go for mining because it will create stability, we are not going to go for mining because of a risk, taking account into the resources of the area, we can develop the area, develop the country. this is the policy of the government of senegal. in e—mails, the astron general manager tim chase told the bbc the company once a positive impact. the community has yet to be

convinced of the benefits of a project agreed far away. let‘s recap on the main news, a few hours ago we heard the announcement from the white house that the us was going to reimpose sanctions on iran after pulling out of the nuclear deal, back in may. one of the rainy responses, the foreign minister saying bullying, economic power and
