we'll brief you on all you need to know in global news, business and sport. also, are goods really cheaper on black friday? the consumer watchdog, which? , is saying not always. so what do you make of these retail events that promise massive bargains on big ticket items? will you be shopping on black friday or cyber monday? do get in touch. just use the hashtag, #bbcthebriefing. we begin in france. the pressure on french president emmanuel macron will intensify today. nurses say they will take to the streets in order to "defend the healthcare system". employees at the national unemployment agency begin a strike today as well, following days of protests, which began over fuel tax increases.

in many cases, the action‘s become violent, with one woman killed over the weekend and several others critically injured. lebo diseko has more. to the burning across france over the rising cost of fuel. protestors, known as the yellow vest, set up roadblocks across the country with hundreds of thousands of people taking part in demonstrations since the weekend. —— anger. diesel, which is the most commonly used fuel in french cars, has gone up 73% in the last 12 months. it is part of effo rts last 12 months. it is part of efforts by president macron‘s government to encourage greener forms of transport, but it has led to calls for him to go, with critics accusing him of abandoning ordinary people. translation: we are very disappointed in president macron, i

voted and believed in him but now i regret it. if i had to do it again, i would not vote for him. we do not eat as we would like to everyday, it is not normal, and not normal. how long will this last? i think it is not normal, so the protestors should continue. tempers flared as some drivers tried to force their way through the blockades. more than 500 people have been injured since the weekend, one person has died and another is fighting for their lives. and yet, speaking on monday night, the interior minister stop short of calling for an end to the protest. translation: i do not want to be a thorough terry and we need to focus oui’ thorough terry and we need to focus our resources and our priority, which is the safety and security of the french people, and i asked those who want to demonstrate to continue if they want, but without infringing on the freedom of citizens, commerce or the economy. the careful tone

perhaps an awareness of the level of anger in the country. a recent poll showed their quarters of people packed the yellow vests, with more wanting the fuel tax hikes to be reversed. with nurses to take to the streets and a strike in the public service both starting today, it looks like a tough week lies ahead for looks like a tough week lies ahead foer looks like a tough week lies ahead for mr macron and his government. shares in the japanese car maker, nissan, have fallen sharply on the tokyo stock exchange. they were 6% lower in early trading as investors reacted to the arrest of the company's chairman, carlos ghosn, on suspicion of financial misconduct. mr ghosn had under—reported his earnings and used company assets for personal purposes. he does face dismissal. it is important to mention that he

has not said anything or reacted to this situation so far in terms of the public eye. let's go live to tokyo and our correspondent, rupert wingfield hayes. rupert, carlos ghosn is such a huge figure in the global car industry. i have interviewed him, this was a shocking story when it broke. have interviewed him, this was a shocking story when it brokem massively a shocking story. very unexpected, came completely out of the blue and i think it is very clear, i have been talking to people this morning who said it is pretty clear that mr ghosn had no inkling this was coming. he flew into tokyo yesterday afternoon and nissan's corporate jet to attend a board meeting this week, prosecutors went on board thejet meeting this week, prosecutors went on board the jet and told meeting this week, prosecutors went on board thejet and told him meeting this week, prosecutors went on board the jet and told him they wa nted on board the jet and told him they wanted to interview him. he was taken to the prosecutor's office, where he was formally arrested last night and the reason why we have not heard anything from mr ghosn so far is because, as far as we understand, is because, as far as we understand, is still in detention in a tokyo prosecutor's offers. so this is

yeah, as you say, this is a massive story here. carlos ghosn has been a towering figure in the car industry globally at is almost household name here injapan, globally at is almost household name here in japan, where globally at is almost household name here injapan, where he has been much run nissan and renault for much of the last 20 years. —— pretty much. and under his leadership, the company has transformed, as you mentioned nissan, renault, but also mitsubishi as well, and many would say that is because of him being at the top. sorry, rupert, kenny heaney? it looks like you have lost audio. i think he has lost audio, u nfortu nately. audio. i think he has lost audio, unfortunately. —— can you hear me? he obviously cannot hear what i am asking him. hopefully we will connect with him a bit later, but just to say that in business briefing, we are going to discuss this issue in more detail. we will be talking to an analyst injapan about carlos ghosn, his arrest, but

also about what it means for the car giant is well going forward. all that later. now, let's talk about what is going on in the united states. there have been two mass shootings in the united states. four people were killed after a gunman opened fire outside a hospital in chicago. a policeman was killed and the gunman is now dead. in a separate incident in denver, colorado, one person has been killed and four others wounded. police there are still looking for the gunman. 0ur north america correspondent peter bowes has been following events. another city, another shooting. this time ata another city, another shooting. this time at a hospitaljust another city, another shooting. this time at a hospital just south another city, another shooting. this time at a hospitaljust south of downtown chicago. the police say it started with a row in the car park are twin people who knew each other. the gunmen first shot a woman with whom he was in a relationship, and then headed inside the building, closely followed by several police officers. more shots were fired, a p pa re ntly officers. more shots were fired, apparently at random. it was extreme

and it was very loud and it was close, so this is what happened. i do not know after that, the swat tea m do not know after that, the swat team came and got us out of the utility room and made us walk across the street. literally, as i am stepping onto the pavement, 85 shots or six shots. i drop my groceries, ta ke or six shots. i drop my groceries, take cover. we take cover and were waiting to seek shelter, and then we had about six more shots. a doctor, pharmaceutical assistant and a police officer killed. the government is also dead. those offices that responded today saved a lot of lives, because this guy was just shooting, that poor woman got off an elevator, had nothing to do with nothing in the shot. why a? —— officers. there is no doubt in my mind that all those our country who responded with heroes and they said a lot of lives because we just do

not know how much damage he was prepared to stop white the city of chicago is no stranger to gun violence. it is everyday life for people who live here. —— the city of chicago. at the shooting has hit home the most. —— but the shooting. this tears at the soul of our city, it is the face and the consequence of evil. and about the same time in another us city, another shooting was unfolding. in downtown denver. police said the suspect is still at large. it leaves two more american cities in mourning today, the scourge of gun violence once again to blame. let's brief you now on other stories making the news. fresh clashes have dealt a blow to

peace prospects in yemen. the saudi led coalition has bombed treaty rebels in the port of hodaydah. china's president xijinping has arrived in manila for the start of a two—day visit to the philippines. the two countries will sign a number of bilateral deals to highlight their growing economic and security co—operation. researchers in australia say they've made a breakthrough in the treatement of multiple sclerosis. in clinical trials, immune cells have been extracted from patients's blood and have then been trained in a laboratory to recognise and destroy the epstein—barr virus. seven out of ten participants in the trial in queensland have reported positive changes. airbnb is going to remove from its listings all homes in israeli settlements in the occupied west bank. the company says it's made the decision because settlements are at the "core of the dispute between israelis and palestinians". palestinians have welcomed the decision. israel has called it "shameful" and threatened legal action. let's talk some more about that

story. with me is james hughes, who's chief market analyst at axitrader. good morning to you, james. good morning. we used to hearing stories about cities fighting airbnb because they do not like it in their backyard that this is a very different situation, what do you make of that? with this situation, this is obviously a very delicate situation and always is that for a long time, airbnb have offered these various different bits of accommodation in the west bank but in israeli settlements within the west bank, and obviously the issue that we have here is that in a number of those areas, any

palestinian with palestinian id is not even allowed in those areas, so it has become a massive issue, it has become, it has become actually bpr story is well for airbnb, where it seems more that they had been pressured to remove this on one side, rather than willingly removing it themselves. —— pr. and of course, this has been created attention of the israeli government because the israeli government have had close ties with airbnb to initially put a lot of these properties online onto their software, but now it seems that they are going to be withdrawn and of course, the israeli government is particularly unhappy about that. yes, absolutely, so airbnb reacting to pressure and of course, this is a really interesting story, lots of views on this. many would argue that this is something they should have done a long, long time ago but as you say, many in israel saying it is a shameful situation. we will see if they go ahead with legal action there. thank

you james for now. james will be back later to talk about some other stories in our newsbriefing. do stay with us, we have some other stories for you. the netherlands come from 2—0 down against germany to qualify for the finals of the nations league — at france's expense. that and more in the sport briefing. benazir bhutto has claimed victory in pakistan's general election, and she's asked pakistan's president to name her as prime minister. jackson's been released on bail of $3 million after turning himself in to police in santa barbara. it was the biggest demonstration so far of the fast—growing european antinuclear movement. the south african government has announced that its opening the country's remaining whites—only beaches to people of all races. this will lead to a black majority government in this country, and the destruction of the white civilisation.

from her opponents and dysfunction within her party. as part of the bbc series 100 women, she's been speaking to yalda hakim about what she had to face. you were australia's first female prime minister, and then since leaving office, you've said to a lot of women who want to go into politics, look, go for it, but you've also repeatedly said there's this other bit, the misogyny bit, the sexism bit, don't pretend that it isn't there. i mean, were you prepared for the kind of attacks that you came under? no, i wasn't, and i sort of entered into parliament not having really felt in a personal way sexism or misogyny. of course, i knew it existed, i was an active feminist at university. i thought the rate of change'd be pretty fast and if you'd asked me back then if all of this would be fixed by the time you're in your 40s or 50s, i would have said yes, absolutely, it'll all be fixed by then.

but i did go into a law firm, which was overwhelmingly male at the leadership level, but even with that, i didn't really feel directly sexism. so by the time i was prime minister and the sort of gendered abuse was flying, it did take me aback that it could get as bad as that, and that there was still so much sexism lying under the surface of our society, and i think many other societies around the world. and, you know, when it came to being a woman leader, it sort of broke through. why were you surprised? i mean, australia is quite a patriarchal society, as advanced as it is, that's just a fact. well, i have to go all defence of my country at this point. i think australia is very similar to many countries at a similar stage of development and democracies, which is that we still don't have anywhere near 50% women in parliament, women aren't well represented on corporate boards, as ceos, increasingly well

represented in the law, but not in the news media, still not represented equally in technology. i think we share all of those factors with the world. yes, it's a blokey culture and many of our turns of phrase are, you know, sort of male, mateship, masculine turns of phrase, i never felt alienated by any of that and i don't feel alienated by that now. interesting, julia gillard interesting, julia gilla rd speaking frankly about her term as prime minister of australia. one of central america's most active volcanos has erupted for the fifth time this year. guatemala's fuego volcano, which is near the capital, is spewing out ash and lava, forcing the evacaution of thousands living nearby. the latest flare—up is reminiscent of a deadly eruption injune which killed almost 200 people. georgina smyth has more. molten lava against a night sky. this is guatemala's volcan de fuego,

to routine for the town of fuego. injune, more than 190 people were killed when the volcano erupted. translation: we are still afraid after the last eruption, and that's why we were evacuated at midnight and brought over here. this is the fifth eruption this year, the latest was just last month. georgina smyth, bbc news. now it's time to get all the latest from the bbc sports centre. hello, i'm marc edwards here's what we've got coming up on your tuesday sport briefing: can portland continue to blaze a trail through the nba, we've got the lowdown on footballs breakaway european super league and we'll introduce you to the chechen schwarzennegger. there's a clash of the titans between 5—time world champions, brazil, and reigning africa cup

question. participation stays. and everybody will have a possibility to compete in every european competition. that stays. it will go down as one of the greatest rescue acts in cricket history, proof that test cricket is alive and well. new zealand have beaten pakistan by four runs to win the first test in abu dhabi. to put things in context for you, pakistan needed just 139 runs on day 4 with all 10 wickets remaining. what ensued was a calamitous batting collapse from the hosts, who at one point needed just 41 runs with six wickets in hand. kiwi debutant ajaz patel with figures of 5—59, as new zealand recorded the closest margin of victory by runs in a test for 13 years, and the fifth—smallest in test history. and finally how often have you said to yourself, "today i'm going to the gym", before finding a myriad of reasons
