and at 11:30pm, we'll be taking an in—depth look at the papers with our reviewers laura hughes, political correspondent at the financial times, and the former fleet street editor, eve pollard. stay with us for that. hello, very good evening to you. turkey's president erdogan has said the savage murder ofjournalist jamal khashoggi in istanbul was premeditated and demanded that the men being held for it be handed over by saudi arabia and put on trial in turkey. tonight, president trump described saudi's handling of the matter as "the worst cover—up ever", and the state department announced that the visas of those believed to have been involved in the killing would be revoked. from istanbul, mark lowen reports. jamal khashoggi's last steps into the saudi consulate and towards his death.

he came just for papers to prove his divorce and let him remarry. three weeks on, the search for the truth continues. president erdogan vowed to provide today the "naked truth", in his words. in the end, no new bombshell, but accusations of a premeditated act. translation: all the information and evidence shows that jamal khashoggi was killed in a violent, savage murder. we expect those responsible to be exposed. we have strong evidence that it was a planned operation, not an accidental death. he called for an independent investigation and tightened pressure on those arrested in riyadh. many of them close to the crown prince. the president of turkey, the world's biggestjailer ofjournalists, now an unlikely defender of the saudi journalist's cause. translation: the 18 people must be tried in istanbul. this is my proposal. but the decision is for

the saudis to make. president erdogan laid out how the journalist's murder was orchestrated. he said planning for it began when jamal khashoggi booked his appointment at the consulate to get divorce papers. the day before his killing, a saudi reconnaissance team scouted a forest in istanbul where he may now be buried. president erdogan went on, the 15 strong hit squad assembled that morning at the consulate, removing hard discs from security cameras. then mr khashoggi received a call to confirm his appointment at the consulate. it was at 13:08 that jamal khashoggi was last seen alive. one saudi operative then donned the journalist's clothes and a fake beard and glasses, walking in istanbul, apparently as a diversion. more evidence, it seems, of meticulous planning. given the gruesome leaks of what happened here, sedatives, strangling, dismemberment, a president who does

not shy away from confrontation was surprisingly restrained today. i am told that he wanted to show that this was not against saudi arabia, to urge the king to act without targeting him and to warn there will be more dirt if riyadh stays silent. in the saudi capital today, they put on a brave face, opening a glitzy investment conference, but many multinationals and politicians are boycotting it and the opening speaker could not avoid the topic. the terrible acts reported in recent weeks are alien to our culture and our dna. getting the us to change tack is harder. its treasury secretary pulled out of the conference but still met the crown prince, the saudis praising the strategic partnership. and the white house is yet to be convinced by turkey's allegations. what president erdogan said? yes. well, he was pretty rough. i want to see the facts first. look, saudi arabia has been a really great ally, one of the biggest investors, maybe the biggest investor in our country.

imagine the pain here forjamal khashoggi's son, meeting king salman and the crown prince, widely accused of ordering the murder. beyond the geopolitics, the regional relations turned upside down, it comes down to this. a father killed, a family torn apart. mark lowen, bbc news, istanbul. donald trump tonight also described the events following the murder of the saudi journalist, jamal khashoggi, as the worst cover—up in history. they had a very bad original concept. it was carried out poorly, and the cover—up was one of the worst in the history of cover—ups. very simple. bad deal, should've never been thought of. somebody really messed up. and they had the worst cover—up ever. and where should've stopped is that the deal standpoint when they thought about it,

because whoever thought of that i think is in big trouble. and they should be in big trouble. a major three—day investment conference began in riyadh today but has been overshadowed by the murder ofjamal khashoggi. prince mohammed bin salman of saudi arabia has been accused of being behind the killing. many observers thought he wouldn't attend the conference, but in the end, as my colleague tim willcox reports, he defied his critics. he was mobbed like some sort of rock star. there were crowds of people around him wanting to get selfies and shake his hand. i managed to get up close at one stage, thrusting myself forward. i didn't want to start with the whole jamaal thing because he was surrounded by all his bodyguards, but i did say, "look, in the context of recent events, how do you think things are going"? and he said, "great! more people, more money." he laughed. his bodyguards laughed, and he was on his way and i was hurled asunder.

so that doesn't seem to be preoccupying him at the moment. and if you look at the delegates here, it is a different sort of conference. you haven't got the big titans of business and politics, but a lot of their deputies are here, i spoke to several saying the ceo didn't come because they didn't want the pressure, but they could come because they need a conference like this. this is a hard—nosed, pragmatic business relationship. and the numbers realistically shown don't appear to be that far down, or at least up, so i'm told, from last year. interestingly the mohammed bin salman will be at a session tomorrow morning where we are told they will have a couple of big announcements. i don't think it will be anything to do with the jamal khashoggi, but i could be wrong. there also won't be any questions from journalists here. the government will urge ferry and freight companies to plan alternative routes, if a no—deal brexit blocks

cross—channel traffic. the plans emerged after today's cabinet meeting in downing street, at which ministers were updated on contingency plans if we leave the eu without a deal. our political correspondent, alex forsyth is at westminster. we've heard a lot of talk about contingency planning, is just now becoming a step up in terms of thinking? what was said here the cabinet meeting this morning was that the prime minister told ministers as she had done for some time that what the government was working to do is getting a break the deal, but they want to show that they are prepared for any eventuality. therefore what will happen now is a new thing that has been introduced, which is a weekly briefing for senior ministers about the preparations for the no deal outcome, the possibility for that. and that started this morning at the cabinet meeting, and i understand what was discussed specifically today was the dover calais crossing,

and the possible pressure that may come over if there was no deal, which could in theory lead to checks on the side, causing a back—up. what i was told was discussed with the possibility of a government looking to urge existing carriers and ships to urge existing carriers and ships to use alternative routes via ports in belgium instead of france. so i think this is all part of the government's efforts to show and actually do some planning for the possibility that there could be no deal, because of course if we are leaving the eu on 29 march, 2019, the time to get a deal now is pretty short. it reinforces the sense of action that although the focus has been on the northern ireland border, the sea crossing could be significant. but would some companies not be a bit sceptical with the government saying to look fraudulent —— alternative routes?

you would assume so, i was reading into this this evening and some companies themselves suggesting some alternative routes or crossing points not only in other eu companies but in the uk itself. so other ports in england could be used instead of everything being channelled fruit —— they're dover where there is already concerned about possible congestion. we know the government did look at what there might be in terms of glory facilities parking around the m206 to see whether or not they could come play to make sure the heavy flow of traffic is not disrupted. the talk of this is spreading, if that becomes problematic, which as i understand in the briefing this morning, it could because the cat —— capacity on a crossing in particular could be really limited if there is no deal. interesting to see what these weekly briefings will bring.

thank you very much, alex forsyth and westminster. an escalator has given way at a metro station in rome, leaving more than 20 people injured, some of them seriously. reports from italy say that most of the injured are fans of the visiting russian football team, cska moscow. footage on social media shows people being crushed at the bottom of the escalator as it runs out of control at the repubblica metro station. what is thought to be the uk's biggest ever strike about equal pay is under way in glasgow. thousands of council workers are striking for 48 hours, resulting in the closure of hundreds of schools, and affecting some care services. scotland's highest court last year ruled that women at the council had been discriminated against since 2006, and that some had lost thousands of pounds a year in pay. 0ur scotland editor sarah smith reports from glasgow. frances is a social care worker who says she didn't want to go on strike, but feels she has no choice. frances and her colleagues say they are paid up to £3 an hour less than men doing similar work because of pay structures that

penalise those who work irregular hours, the vast majority of whom are women. there are cleaners and carers and there's dinner school ladies all getting a lot less than men for doing the same jobs, or similarjobs. we do so much more, we're getting compared to a cleansing worker, a gardener, so there's no comparison there. we're dealing with people's lives. this is why we want equality. we want to be treated equal. primary schools and nurseries across the city are closed, and most home care services suspended. glasgow city council say that's putting some vulnerable people at risk, like irene, who needs four care visits a day to make sure that she takes essential medication. what do you need that you're not getting today? pills. medication. iam bipolar. i need to get my pills. how did you feel when your carer told you she wouldn't be coming in today?

she's striking for equal pay. are you annoyed she's not here helping you today, or...? thousands of women and some male colleagues took to the streets today after 12 years of arguing about equal pay. the irony is that the pay structures in dispute here were put in place to try and end discrimination. but the woman who are on strike say theyjust entrenched the inequality. for a decade, under labour control, the council fought the women's claims in court, where their pay scheme was ruled to be less favourable to female workers. the snp took charge last year, promising to settle the dispute. unions say negotiations have stalled, but the council insists this strike is completely unnecessary. we have been trying to meet every single one of their demands, and have agreed ways forward on everything.

they had every reason to withdraw the strike action right up until this morning. at this point, we're not clear what it is that they still want. campaigners say the cost of settling 12,000 equal pay claims could be over half a billion pounds. the council dispute that figure but admit it is facing a huge financial challenge. sarah smith, bbc news, glasgow. the bbc has new evidence tonight that china is building a vast network of internment camps for its muslim population in the western region of xinjiang. experts say one facility we've identified could be one of the biggest detention centres in the world. it's thought as many as a million muslims from the uighur community are being held without trial in xinjiang. china denies the claims, saying it has a programme of "vocational training centres" needed to combat the threat of terrorism. but the bbc has seen analysis that suggests the number of secure, prison—like facilities in the area

has more than doubled in the past two years. accounts of life for individuals inside these places tell of abuse and humiliation. 0ur china correspondent john sudworth reports from a part of the country where journalists are often prevented from filming. in xinjiang, displays of police might are everywhere. but there is something here they don't want you to see. huge fences all around. behind these blue steel walls, in a former school, is what china calls a "vocational training centre". but it looks more like a prison. nearby, relatives queue up to visit. from above, the grim details can be picked out. last year, the school had a football pitch. today, it's covered with what look like accommodation blocks. watchtowers are visible.

on a corner, just outside the camp fence, we stop to speak to a family. some officials try to stop us filming, but another intervenes. "let them speak," she says. i ask who they're visiting. "my dad," he replies. china denies it is detaining muslims in xinjiang. in response to the allegations, state television has been showing classrooms of supposedly grateful adults, willingly undergoing "re—education". "without this, i might have followed religious extremists," this woman says. but the bbc has seen new, detailed satellite analysis

of dozens of suspected camps across xinjiang. few of them look much like schools. this giant compound is surrounded by a high wall with 16 watchtowers. we try to approach the site by car. look at this... only to discover that it's being expanded on a massive scale. it's like a city... then the police block our way. if this really is all about education, then why the effort to stop us getting close? the satellite analysts show us a more recent image. it is clear how much the site has grown. but the team is able to show that this one camp is part of something much bigger, by identifying many other

similar secure facilities right across xinjiang. plotting their growth over time shows just how fast they're being built. satellites see beyond what the human eye can see. as the years pass, we have detected that the number of infrastructures being built increases and, most significantly, in the past two years. and prison design experts tell us this could now be one of the biggest detention facilities in the world, holding 11,000 inmates at the very least. xinjiang's mainly muslim minority are known as the uighurs. now, many of their homes are locked and deserted. sinister official notices on the doors say the missing are being "looked after". "re—education", "vocational training", to use china's

euphemisms, suggest something limited and temporary, but our evidence shows that the camps and prisons being used for that purpose are large—scale and seemingly permanent. the big question, then, is where does all of this end? and the history of mass incarcerations, of course, offers some pretty ominous precedents. from a vegetable field to another one of china's new schools. in less than six months, complete with watchtowers. we tried to film one of them. but once again, while trying to get to the truth, we're asked to leave. john said werth, bbc news. john will have more on his investigation on bbc news tomorrow night. the headlines on bbc news.

the saudi royal family meet relatives of murdered journalist jamal khashoggi. turkey's president says the killing was planned days ahead, and demandsjustice is done. ferry and freight firms may have to plan alternative routes for vital supplies if a no—deal brexit blocks cross—channel traffic. the bbc reveals evidence of a vast new network of internment camps in china. a million muslims are being held inside without trial. sheep farmers around the uk are facing a challenge this breeding season, as they put their rams in the fields. the lambs they are planning for will be born after brexit in march, and so decision making is unusually difficult. and the latest figures show that breeding ewes are fetching the lowest price in more than three years. 0ur consumer affairs correspondent colletta smith has been talking to farmers in cumbria. on a crisp autumn day, there are few places more appealing than being up on the hills with the sheep at this farm.

but for rachel and her family it is getting harder to make the sums add up. 300 lambs, £30. you're talking a £30 loss or £30 less... yes, it is about £9,000. we have friends with £20,000 back. it is a bit of a worry, because obviously you have got your bills to pay. but she is already having to make the big decisions about next spring. we put them in with the sheep, we have got lambs inside sheep and we don't know if they will be able to sell, but you cannot not put your rams in with your sheep, so you just have to carry on, really. this is crunch time of year for sheep farmers, they are finding out how much they made on all their lambs from last spring and how much they are going to have to invest in breeding stock this year. because, it is market season. so i am heading down the road to one of the biggest livestock markets in the country.

almost 500 rams were sold here today for breeding next spring's lambs. at auctions across the country, prices were down. farmers as a whole, as a race, if you like, as a group of people, are pretty resilient. we had a difficult winter, really bad spring, beast from the east and all the assorted weather, followed by a really dry summerand brexit, so, yes, the amount of uncertainty is probably greater than we have seen for a long time. but that is how the land lies for farmers this breeding season. they are going to be in a situation where those lambs are going to be born post—brexit, in a completely different market. we might be under world trade organisation tariffs then which would really hit. 90% of our lamb trade in this country goes to europe, so that if we go under wto rules,

we are in a really difficult situation, where we do not have free trade access to our biggest market. rachel's daughter catherine is watching as her parents make big financial decisions about the farm she loves and hopes to run one day. definitely it is in the back of my mind, like what is going to happen after brexit? but i do think we need to persevere, because we are the people who provide the food for the uk. whatever happens, decisions by farmers to reduce their flock now will have an impact on the price we pay in the shops for lamb next year. coletta smith, bbc news, in kirby stephen. now it's more than a mile down, deep in the black sea, and it's the world's oldest intact shipwreck every discovered. a team of british and bulgarian researchers has carbon—dated the ship, a greek trading vessel, to around 400 bc, and says its shape

hasn't been compromised, despite spending more than 2,400 years underwater. the reason, there is a layer in which there is no oxygen, and in the absence of oxygen, there is nothing to eat away at the wood. lucinda adam has the story. deep down in the black sea, archaeologists have been discovering dozens of wrecks almost perfectly preserved in the dark waters where there is little oxygen. this wreck is from the byzantine period, about a thousand years old. but deeper down, beyond the reach of human divers, are much older ships. this, the oldest ever found, a classical greek trading vessel that has laid here on the sea bed for 2,400 years, from the time when aristotle was still alive. the first thing we saw as we came along the hull was this quarter rudder. and this is diagnostic in the sense that rudders weren't used in this way before the 1300s, and then this particular style goes back to the classical world.

and then we actually excavated down the shaft of the rudder until we got to the end of the blade, and that said it's greek, not roman. this and more than 60 other wrecks were discovered and mapped by rovs, or remote operated vehicles, delving more than two kilometres below the surface, where organisms that would normally eat the wood can't survive. we've got this just astonishing preservation, an entire ship with its rudders in place. what's amazing about it is when you look at the pictures of it, you kind of recognise it. we've seen these ships before, and we've seen them in paintings. the wreck looks something like this image, on a greek vase held by the british museum. the ship has a mast and a sail and a single row of oars. it's about 30 metres long. but it's unlikely that it will ever be raised. its timbers are much too fragile to be brought to the surface. because of that, preservation by recording means that, yeah, we are able to get all of this

information up and we are able to leave the wreck so that future generations with better technology are able to come and use their skills to find out even more. for now, these wrecks will remain deep underwater but marine archaeologists will work to bring the history they hold to the surface. lucinda adam, bbc news. the world's longest sea bridge has opened in china, nine years after construction first began, linking hong kong to macau and mainland china. the £15 million bridge is designed to withstand earthquakes and typhoons, and contains 400,000 tonnes of steel, enough to build 60 eiffel towers. -- £15 —— £15 billion. the project should have opened in 2016, but has been dogged by safety issues. officials say at least 18 workers died during its construction. and we'll be taking an in—depth look at the papers with our reviewers laura hughes, political correspondent at the financial

times, and the author, eve pollard. that's coming up after the headlines at 11:30pm. now it's time for the weather. good evening. so far this autumn, the weather has been rather kind to us in terms of temperatures. looks like it is payback time come friday and the weekend as we will be plunged into some arctic air and a howling northerly wind to boot. at the moment, we are sitting in atlantic air, and that is relatively mild and being held in place by this area of high pressure. come thursday night, though, this cold weather front starts to sink its way south across the uk. the clue, of course, in the name. just look how the isobars re—orientate as well once that front sinks its way south through the course of friday. straight north to south, we are in an arctic blast with very cold winds by the end of the week. wednesday, still in atlantic air, still relatively mild. actually, quite a lot of sunshine around on wednesday. it will be quite a bit hazy thanks to high cloud.

also patchy rain to the far north of scotland. much drier day than tuesday. lighter winds as well. and the best sunshine perhaps in the shelter of the south east where we could see up to 17 celsius. thursday, high pressure still largely dominating. a lot of fine weather, better sunshine again towards the south and east. but the weather fronts start to creep in to the north west later in the day. so, some heavier rain getting into the north—west of scotland. temperatures already perhaps in some areas a couple of degrees down, actually, on wednesday. but the real change comes as this weather front sinks south across the uk through the course of thursday night into friday. now, the front itself is not going to do too much in the meantime producing rain. a lot of it will be patchy, and the biggest difference is once we start to drag that arctic air south. you can see we lose the yellow, the mild atlantic air. that's pushed away into the continent. we are straight into that arctic blast, with those howling northerly winds to boot.

a few showers on the remainder of the front or friday morning, and then the northerly wind will bring showers, particularly in the north of scotland but around many of our western, eastern coasts. they could come quite thick and fast in some spots. although, more so perhaps targeted through the weekend as the northerly becomes more established. certainly, the weekend sees the cold air remaining with us throughout. really no escaping it anywhere, but there will be decent sunshine away from the coasts. wintry showers will affect largely the higher ground, but some of these showers could have hail and thunder mixed in with them from time to time through the weekend, a real convergence line forming off the coast of pembrokeshire down into cornwall. it looks like they'll really get their act together across parts of east anglia, affecting the far south east, too. there you can see a little bit of white across northern scotland. temperatures in single figures. feeling much colder when you factor in the wind. in fact, feeling close to freezing across northern scotland. very similar story for sunday. a lot of sunshine on the whole, but it will be a chilly day with a northerly wind perhaps swinging a little more

north—easterly, focusing our showers across towards the east coast at the end of the weekend. what happens after that? well, here we are sunday, still with that north—easterly effect. showers packing into the east, but notice how things start to get moving on into next week. the atlantic starts to take over once again, low pressure starts to push its way in. i think we're talking about some more unsettled conditions, some longer spells of rain. but also, thanks to the atlantic, of course, we'll bring back some milder air. if you chase the isobars around the low all the way back to the bottom of the low, you can see some of that air is going to be coming up from a good way south. so it could be considerably milder again by the middle of next week.
