rohingya muslims. hundreds of thousands of people fled to bangladesh to escape the violence. a report says the suspects it has named should appear before the international criminal court. it's not only about justice for victims. it's also deterring future activity. if you allow this to go without any kind of sanction, then every army in the world will think they can do this. also on today's programme. a mother and her daughter have been stabbed to death in the street in the west midlands. the cost of food is set to rise because of this year's extreme weather. and an exclusive report from inside the nuclear plant at sellafield, one of the most contaminated industrial sites in europe. good afternoon.

un human rights investigators say military leaders in myanmar should be investigated for genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, and called for them to be referred to the international criminal court. in an unprecedented move, the investigators named six top generals, including the commander in chief of the armed forces and his deputy. un investigators interviewed hundreds of victims and found evidence of rape, torture and murder against the rohingya predominately in myanmar‘s rakhine state. more than 700,000 of them have fled to bangladesh. from geneva, our correspondent imogen foulkes reports. a systematic campaign of murder, torture, rape and against myanmar‘s rohingya muslims, extermination. patterns of violence which have been going on in myanmarfor decades and for which the un investigators say the country's top military leaders bear clear responsibility. this report contains details of war crimes, crimes

against humanity and genocide. now, it's highly unusualfor un investigators to publicly name those they believe responsible. this time, they say the evidence is overwhelming. six generals are named in the report. a longer list of names has been stored at the un for further investigation. the team interviewed over 800 victims and witnesses and heard accounts of gang rape, of children killed in front of their parents, and of entire villages burned to the ground. they showed me their scars. they showed me where it happened to them. i could just see from their bodies and others, these people were deeply, deeply wounded. you know, it's not only about justice for victims. it's also deterring future activity. if you allow this to go without any kind of sanction, then every army in the world will think they can do this. the investigators were also highly

critical of myanmar‘s political leader, aung san suu kyi, who they say failed to use her position as head of government or her moral authority to prevent the violence. the next step, the report says, is to refer myanmar to the international criminal court. imogen foulkes, bbc news, geneva. live now to our south east asia correspondent, jonathan head, who's in thailand. a very critical report from the un. where do we go from here? as image and said, the recommendation of the fact—finding tea m recommendation of the fact—finding team is that the security council should take myanmar to the international criminal court. myanmar is not a security to the rome statute so it does not have automatic jurisdiction, rome statute so it does not have automaticjurisdiction, the security council will have to recommend that but among the five permanent members

of the security council, china is likely to block that so those wanting an investigation will have to pursue alternative methods of bringing these generals to justice which is likely to take the form of some kind of independent mechanism and possibly a tribunal. it has been donein and possibly a tribunal. it has been done in the case of syria. they may well do it for me and ma. there's no doubt the incredibly damning language of this report will give much more diplomatic momentum to the determination to have some kind of accountability and remember, most european and north american countries and indeed most muslim countries and indeed most muslim countries are behind this diplomatic push to bring these generals to justice. what it does do comprehensively, this report, i think, is it absolutely shattered the reputation of aung san suu kyi, already badly tarnished but even to this day she continues to defend her generals and denied human rights abuses and she has put herself firmly on the side of those who are going to end up likely in some kind of block. thank you very much,

jonathan. new research suggests that the price of meat, vegetables and dairy products will rise by at least 5% in the coming months, because of this year's extreme weather. the centre for economics and business research said the winter freeze, followed by the recent heatwave, had put huge strain on farming costs and yields. duncan kenendy has this report. 2018 has been a year of weather extremes, from the beast from the east to the wilting temperatures of high summer. for many farmers, the buffeting of the seasons has brought pressures that will soon have an impact on consumers. we've really had to buy in a lot of supplementary feed to feed the cows. we have fared this winter's silage which we would normally use in the winter, we've had defeated the cows during the summer had defeated the cows during the summerand we had defeated the cows during the summer and we are had defeated the cows during the summer and we are running out of feed and having to buy a significant amount of supplementary feed to feed the cows today and we are looking at a huge feeding bill for this winter. that will put our feed price up by about 4p per litre. now

an economics research group says farmers' costs and the struggle to produce enough food is pushing up wholesale vegetable prices and some dairy prices. between march and july, the farm gate price, the price of produce direct from the farmer, rocketed. carrots went up 80%. there was a a1% rise in the cost of onions. the week is needed for bread went up 20%. and the price of butter climbed 24%. researchers say all this has a knock—on effect and with some other products here and in europe also set to get more expensive, the monthly shopping bill will go up. we expect it will cost uk consumers £16 million per week and that equates to £7.50 per uk consumers £a5 million per week and that equates to £7.50 per month per household. a spokesman for the department for food and rural

affairs told us it is not only the weather that affects food prices. it says it has taken steps to help affected farmers and that high temperatures have helped some food and wine producers. farmers say consumers can help them best by paying the price they need to stay in business. duncan kennedy, bbc news. a mother and her daughter have been stabbed to death in the street in solihull, in the west midlands. the women, who were 49 and 22, were found between midnight and 1am. officers say they're making "urgent attempts" to locate a male suspect, who is known to the victims. 0ur correspondent dan johnson is in solihull for us. dan, what more do we know? crime scene investigators are still busy at work here, examining all the evidence because they have a double murder to investigate, a mother and her daughter, both stabbed to death here at about 12:30am. neighbours have described hearing screams

around that time. they say they heard a man shouting in a foreign language and then saw him driving away in a van. police say their main suspect is someone who is known to both of the victims here, although they have not clarified what the relationship is all who he is. but detectives have appealed to him to hand himself in. neighbours say they did not know a great deal about the family and they have not been named but there is urgency to the search now for the man they believe is responsible for this double killing. thank you, dan. police in florida are trying to work out why a man opened fire at a video game conference injacksonville, killing two other people and himself, and wounding at least 11 people. some witnesses have suggested that david katz, who was 2a, started shooting after losing a game. jon donnison reports. a florida shopping mall hosting a gaming tournament, the venue for america's latest mass shooting. inside, contestants were playing an american football video game, then suddenly, the sound of gunfire. gunfire.

and the screens disconnected. we heard a pop and we thought it was a balloon pop, the way it sounded. but then comes the realisation, you know, that somebody back there is shooting, so we just basically got down and crawled out for our lives. by the time armed police arrived, two people were dead and the gunman had also killed himself. the single suspect in this case is a white male and this is pending confirmation but we believe the suspect to be 24—year—old david katz from baltimore, maryland. the fbi is assisting us with that leg of the investigation in baltimore. this is david katz at a gaming event he won in 2017. it's reported this time, he started shooting when he lost. i'm way more upset that someone got this upset over a game than anything. it's just a simple game. it's nothing crazy. to the politicians, wake up, because the people are dying

on the streets and you guys are going through the same motions over and over and over again. does it take for someone close to you to lose their lives to gun violence for you to wake up and realise to do something? but experience tells us change is unlikely. this was a vigil following the parkland school shooting, also in florida, in february, which left 17 people dead. guns have killed more than 9,500 people in america this year, not including suicides. on average in 2018, there's been a mass shooting every day. jon donnison, bbc news. shopping online has become the norm for millions of us. almost one in five sales are now made on the internet rather than on the high street. it means there's been a building boom in retail distribution centres that get our products to us. warehouse space has doubled injust a decade. here's our business correspondent emma simpson. it's big business,

delivering parcels. these days, most of them contain our internet shopping. it's 9pm at dhl‘s vast depot at east midlands airport and things are getting busy. each night, we process 190,000 shipments through this facility. and it's growing. dhl has invested more than £150 million expanding this site to keep up with demand. the pace of change is incredible. a few years ago, we wouldn't have seen any e—commerce or online shipping parcels come through this organisation. now we are seeing 60% of the uk volume is all e—commerce. what does that tell you? it tells us that's the way forward, that's where the future is. location is key. this region is making the most of its good connections. next door, a vast new distribution park is taking shape, the east midlands gateway.

high street shops may be shutting but this part of retail is growing at breakneck speed. we've commissioned research which shows that over the last decade, 235 million square feet of warehouse space has been leased or bought. that's double compared with the previous decade. more than half of it has been built from scratch, like this. the proportion going to retail has doubled, to, with 2018 set to be a record year. 0ver there is the airport. the boss told me there are now almost as many planes with cargo as passengers. passenger flights tend to be during the daytime hours. then what happens overnight, we really come to life with the cargo activity which is all about that next day delivery. so we've seen phenomenal growth, maybe 19, 20 planes per hour,

literally bringing the cargo in or taking it out of the country ready for the next day. 0ur changing shopping habits are creating thousands of new, very differentjobs and infrastructure, a journey which still has a long way to run. emma simpson, bbc news, east midlands airport. the people's vote campaign, which wants a new referendum on brexit, is attempting to change labour party policy. that's according to a leaked memo. it wants mps and activists to submit a motion at the labour conference next month, committing the party to backing a new referendum on the final brexit deal. 0ur political correspondent jonathan blake is with me now. jonathan, what more can you tell us? how likely is this to result in a labour party change in policy? people's vote think it's worth a try, the government's position if they have ruled out a second referendum and labour's is slightly

different, they say they will respect the result of the 2016 brexit vote but all lots and should be on the table if a deal is rejected by parliament. people's vote are nudging at what they clearly see as an ajar door and this memo has gone out to all of their members, suggesting those who are labour party members should submit a motion to the party conference next month which would call for people being allowed to express their views ina public being allowed to express their views in a public vote on brexit. a couple of big ifs, the conference as a whole would have to a topic that should be debated and then it would need the support of at least some of jeremy corbyn‘s supporters on the left of the party. they will see this potentially as a way of undermining his leadership which is why people's vote have been very clear ina why people's vote have been very clear in a memo they have sent out that this should not be used as a way of attacking jeremy corbyn. also they potentially risk, the labour party, alienating some supporters who voted in favour of brexit in the first place. it is far from certain

that labour will change their policy but it is probably the people's vote campaign's best hope of getting what they want to happen, another referendum on brexit, turning into a reality. thank you. a weight—loss pill has been hailed as a breakthrough in the fight against obesity, after a major study showed it did not increase the risk of serious heart problems. a us study saw 12,000 people who were either obese or overweight given the pills or a placebo, with those who took the drug shedding an average of nine pounds injust over three years. sellafield is one of the most contaminated industrial sites in europe. crumbling, near—derelict buildings are home to decades' worth of accumulated radioactive waste, a toxic legacy from the early years of the nuclear age. now its operators are in a race against time to make the most dangerous areas safe. 0ur reporter theo leggett has been given exclusive access to one of the most hazardous parts of the site. in the early days of the nuclear age, britain was enthralled to the awesome power of the atom. newsreel: the first large scale

atomic power station in the world will be supplying britain's grid next summer. its scientists scrambled first to build bombs, then to develop what seemed to be a limitless source of energy. and sellafield was at the heart of it all. but those heady early days have left a toxic legacy of crumbling contaminated structures. now the bbc has been allowed to film inside one of the most hazardous of all. and here it is. this is the first—generation magnox storage pond here at sellafield and this is where, in the past, used nuclearfuel was brought to cool down before it could be taken away for reprocessing. it hasn't been used for 30 years, but it's still full of toxic radioactive material and cleaning all that up is now proving to be a major challenge. it has to be cleaned up. the structure is obviously showing its age. if part of it were to collapse, the consequences could be very serious. but removing its dangerous contents isn't easy because it wasn't designed with decommissioning in mind.

the word decommissioning didn't exist until about 20 years ago so there was no thought. the idea was it would just be emptied. nobody realised at that time that the radiation would change the nature of the material, that some of it would corrode. it was expected that it would be relatively straightforward just to empty. the job of sifting through the radioactive murk is given to specially designed underwater robots. their human operators remaining at a safe distance. it demands cutting—edge technology able to operate in the harshest environments. machines like this one developed by localfirm forth engineering. the company is one of hundreds based near the plant which are benefiting from sellafield's predicament. and many of the products they develop for the nuclear industry can also be sold profitably elsewhere. sellafield has been definitely a great test—bed and definitely a good pedigree to have our robots go there first. if you can work at sellafield,

it can certainly work in the oil and gas and marine industries. it will be many years before this dilapidated facility can finally be demolished and decommissioning other parts of sellafield will take even longer, but for engineering firms in the region, that means their ingenuity will be sorely needed for plenty of time to come. theo leggatt, bbc news, sellafield. that's all from us for the moment. 0n bbc one, we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. goodbye. and show scottish premiership leaders hearts say their his assistant will take over first—team duties. scotland have named uncapped hearts defender scott and sweetie for this month's scored against albania. he was selected with jack henry also included.

scotla nd with jack henry also included. scotland host belgium in a friendly next friday before taking on albania. that match is also at hampden. there was a brilliant weekend for british basketball as the men won the wheelchair basketball world championships, beating the usa in the final. the gb team claimed a 79—62 win over the rio paralympic champions for what is their first global gold medal. we knew we had it in us to get into that final. as they say, in a final anything can happen and on the day we turned up and won the gold medal. it's ridiculous. we always trained as underdogs so now we're top dogs and everyone's hunting for us. when we were about 12 up with a minute to go i thought, i think we have it here. we thought, oh, no, we have to hold on. and even for the last ten seconds, we won comfortably but you just want to see it out and i saw my mum and dad in the crowd and this has actually happened.

andy murray makes his grand slam return at the us open later. murray — back after hip surgery — faces australia's james duckworth in the first round. murray has dropped to 382 in the world after his injuty lay—off but says it's great to be back at the scene of his first grand slam success. i have great memories from new york overall, from juniors through the first slam final to then obviously winning my first grand slam here, so, yeah. i have lots of great memories. i'm happy i'm able to be back, competing again here. it was tough, missing it last year. i was pretty upset at the time so i am really pleased to be back and i will try to enjoy it as much as i can. and you can follow the action from

new york on the bbc sport website from 6pm. that is all the sport for now. we will have more for you later. the ss mendi was a world war one troop transporter — which sank off the isle of wight transporting south african troops to the western front. it was the country's worst ever maritime disaster — killing more than six hundred black south africans — and became a symbol of racial injustice during the apartide regime. now the long lost bell from the wreck of the ss mendi is to be presented by prime minister theresa may to the president of south africa. the bell was given anonymously to bbc south today reporter steve humphrey, who had followed the story for three decades. he sent us this report. it isa it is a bill which resonates around the world. the ship sank off the

isle of wight after being rammed by another ship. 646 people died, including black south african troops on their way to do a lot of the heavy lifting and digging on the western front. last year under 100 anniversary of the tragedy the south african navy staged a ceremony at a memorial in southampton where the walls of names highlighted the scale of the disaster. if you month later the bell from the ship was left anonymously. i have been looking for it for over 30 years since i first heard rumours it had been recovered by divers, and that looks very much like a bell shaped package with my name on it. an unsigned letter with developer explains that they were asking me to take charge of it because of my interest in the ship. the writer said,... i know it is of

importance to south african heritage and ifi importance to south african heritage and if i handed it myself it might not go to the rightful place. this needs to be sorted out before it is lost. the bell has been on display in southampton, while authorities made a decision about its future. it's a local story for southampton but we have to look at the history beyond southampton and the wider meaning the bell has in other cultures and histories. the bell was collected by the royal navy, the first stage in itsjourney collected by the royal navy, the first stage in its journey to south africa where tomorrow prime minister theresa may will present it to the country's president. a second tribute to remember those killed in the grenfell tower fire will take place today on the second day of the notting hill carnival. the event is being policed by seven thousand officers today, the highest number for six years.

yesterday the metropolitan police arrested 133 people at the event — and 16 knives were seized. 0ur reporter noel phillips is there and described the atmosphere at today's event. this is one of the biggest parties in europe, the carnival began in 1965, it was only attended by 200 people, today up to 1 million pa rtygoers have people, today up to 1 million partygoers have lined the streets in west london, dancing in real caribbean style. it will cover 20 miles of this local area, come the size of 11 glastonbury festivals, and a lot of people here today dancing away, we will talk to two people who will start the parade.

this is calvin, the striking thing is your outfit, how long did it take you to put together? we started right after the carnival last year but production took about six months. we have a lot of work to get 750 people in this. you are from jamaica and today the carnival pays homage to the windrush generation. they came and brought the culture here and now this is part of british culture. tk is also with us. you have been dancing on your feet all day, what does this job entail? is this your first carnival? know, about six or seven carnival, i love it, carnival is the best. it is

obviously a staple of this carnival, the music we can hear in the background, dancing is important, can you show us how to move? there we go. at the end of today, there will be about 300 tonnes of rubbish on the streets and that's the equivalent of 25 double—decker buses. tk is dancing away, a lot of people dancing, we will stick around andi people dancing, we will stick around and i will give you more later on. thank you, see you later. time for a look at the weather with ben rich. it's not a bank holiday everywhere today but in those places where it is, the weekend redeems itself weather—wise, after the rain

yesterday, that has slipped away to the north east, still a fair amounts of cloud on a westerly breeze and some showers but if you're lucky, some showers but if you're lucky, some spells of sunshine to take you through the afternoon, then through this week we will not see a lot of rain and it will be warmer than it has been the last couple of days, so through the afternoon, large areas of cloud but sunny spells and resilient showers especially affecting western areas, as far as temperatures go, eastern parts of scotland, 19 degrees to parts of the central belt, for northern ireland the cloud fit enough to give the odd spot of drizzle, come temperatures lifting to around 23 degrees. the night the cloud will melt away for a time but we could see areas of low

cloud across the southern half of the country, in western scotland skies stay clear from aberdeen towards newcastle, a relatively cool night. tomorrow to today in many areas, a lot of dry weather, spells of sunshine but large areas of cloud, perhaps some early mist and fog to contend with. the
