this is bbc news. i'm shaun ley. the headlines at 11:00pm: the government says nissan will have to re—apply for millions of pounds of taxpayer support after backtracking on its promise to build a new car model in sunderland. it's deeply disappointing to me and to the workforce that the extra jobs that would have come from the x—trail will no longer be available. underwater footage from the plane carrying the footballer, emiliano sala, and his pilot, shows a body in wreckage located off the coast of guernsey lorries coming to the uk from europe will be able to enter the country without making any customs declarations at the border in the event of a no—deal brexit. the uk and 1a other eu nations have formally recognised venezuela's opposition leaderjuan guaido as the country's interim president. and at 11:30pm, we'll be taking an in—depth look at the papers with our reviewers katy balls and helen brand. stay with us for that. good evening.

the government says the japanese car maker, nissan, will have to apply again if it wants to receive money it was offered two years ago to support its business in the uk. it's emerged that up to £80 million was pledged in 2016, after nissan's chief executive met theresa may at downing street to seek assurances about the firm's future after brexit. the details of the offer have now been released, and they show that a condition for the funding was that nissan produce both its qashqai and x—trail models at its sunderland plant. however, yesterday, the firm said it would be making the x—trail in japan. here's our business editor simonjack. october 2016. a big post—referendum boost for uk manufacturing.

tonight at ten, car—maker nissan announces two new models will be built in britain. ministers deny there has been a special deal. but today, it was revealed that in a letter to the company, the government had promised financial support if nissan chose sunderland. specifically, the business secretary said assistance could amount to additional support of £80 million, but that would be contingent on a positive decision by the nissan board to allocate production of the qashqai and x—trail models to the sunderland plant. nissan ultimately won approval for £61 million in government grants, £2.6 million of which the company has already had. the government insisted this wasn't a special deal, and that other companies have had similar support. but in parliament the business secretary conceded that nissan had been an urgent case. it was clear that if sunderland lost the qashqai, which accounted for over half of its production, mostly for export, the medium and long—term prospects for a plant losing scale would be bleak.

which had prompted this political commitment... in our negotiations to leave the eu, we would always emphasise the very strong common ground that exists between the uk and other eu member states and pursue a deal that could ensure free trade unencumbered by tariffs or other impediments. nissan's decision to pull the additional x—trail investment will mean the company will have to reapply for that government assistance, but some may say the government has also struggled to deliver on its commitment. when this letter was written in the building behind me over two years ago, nobody could have foreseen the sudden dramatic decline in demand for diesel cars, the main reason nissan are giving for cancelling the x—trail, but neither could we have foreseen the lack of clarity we still have, seven weeks to go, about what brexit will look like. and it is that lack of clarity that makes promises in this letter to keep nissan competitive very hard to keep. over 700 jobs that would have come here to sunderland will now

go to japan. a disappointment for the government and a region where nissan is the biggest employer. you've seen the cars coming out, there's about 7,000 people working there at least and then there's all the off—shots around the area. i would say there's hundreds of small places round here that supply nissan. the government says that was precisely why it offered nissan the reassurances it did. and they worked, at least for now. the qashqai investment is still coming and that's really important for the plant. that's a very big model, so the short—term future of the plant is not in doubt. i think the big issue is if we have a hard brexit, a no—deal brexit, an issue about whether production longer term is going to shift to elsewhere in europe. the mystery of what the government offered nissan may be over. concern about the future of the uk car industry is not. simon jack, bbc news. search teams that have found the wreckage of the light aircraft carrying the cardiff city footballer, emiliano sala, and pilot david ibottson,

say they've seen a body. the plane was discovered on the seabed in the english channel near guernsey, from where sian lloyd reports. the wreckage of the light aircraft which was carrying emiliano sala and piloted by david ibbotson. resting on the sea bed, in more than 60 metres of water. it was discovered yesterday by a vessel commissioned by the footballer‘s family, following a crowdfunding appeal. we wanted to go out there and find the plane. we're pleased that that happened. it's going to be, you know, people use the word closure, this is just the first step. it's a long, long way, but at least this is the route for people — for them to have answers. the cardiff city striker was being flown to south wales from nantes in france by 59—year—old david ibbotson when the plane lost radar contact. two weeks later, underwater cameras have identified that a body is onboard.

the wreckage was found 30 miles north of guernsey, following a search which covered an area of four square nautical miles. two ships, the fpv morven, the vessel paid for by the sala family, and the geo 0cean iii, hired by the air accidents investigation branch, both combed this position. sonar underwater detection equipment carried onboard the fpv morven located the aircraft in 63 metres of water. the morven has now completed its part in the operation and will soon be returning to southampton. ross taylor was one of the team onboard during the search. the weather is very challenging, it's — to identify something on the sea bed is not as straightforward as perhaps you might understand, so you do need experienced personnel to interpret that data, to develop a strategy to know what to do next. so even though we are obviously very

pleased the plane's been found, but we're also very surprised we were able to do so quickly. much of the plane is still intact, with part of its registration number visible. it will now be for those leading the official investigation to decide whether the wreckage is recovered, once the families of the two men have been consulted. sian lloyd, bbc news, guernsey. mps on both sides of the brexit divide have been meeting for the first time to discuss ways to try to ensure there'll be no need for border controls between northern ireland and the republic ireland once the uk leaves the european union. last week the commons voted in favour of finding alternative arrangements for the irish border. theresa may is due to visit northern ireland tomorrow to meet local business owners. 0ur political editor laura kuenssberg has more. walking the walk, brexiteers determined to make the prime minister talk their talk. i'm confident that, as we work

through these proposals, we are going to make our case so that we can rescue the withdrawal agreement. and leave successfully. and, look, former tory remainers heading to the same place at the same time, pushing the same plan. a different way of leaving the eu, but how? this compromise plan would extend the transition or the status quo to 2021, costing an extra £10 billion. but during that time, the government would, in theory, prepare more intensely for leaving with no formal deal, and negotiate a new version of the controversial backstop. this is the government minister, kit malthouse, who is trying to broker the peace between tory factions. there's a lot of hunger in the party for unity to re—emerge, and certainly the bonds of friendship and trust are starting to show again and grow,

which is exactly what we need to present a united front. some of your colleagues think it is still a fantasy. well, i hope they will engage with it. but tories playing nice won't mean much if the proposal itself can't find enough fans. and one senior member of the government told me it was another unicorn, not realistic at this late stage. so ministers are also working to try to revise the deal that has already been done. after meetings in brussels, senior mps believe the eu's negotiators won't tear up the deal, but they might be willing to add more legal reassurance on that backstop, the guarantee against a hard border in ireland, whatever happens. they will not reopen the backstop and the withdrawal agreement, but i got the impression that they might be prepared to consider some additional statement or legal protocol. but the big issue in their minds is, will anything get through the house of commons? eu official said almost immediately, nobody on that side of the channel was considering that but the german

leader offered an ear. "to solve the border issue we must listen and be creative," she said, "but britain must say how they want to do it." next week, mps will vote once more on the government's brexit plan, but that plan is, again, a work in progress, to get parliament, brussels, and be public onside. laura kuenssberg, bbc news, westminster. the uk, along with several other european countries, has officially recognised the opposition leader, juan guaido, as interim president of venezuela. the serving president, nicholas maduro, has rejected the eu's deadline to call snap elections, and he's now warning of civil unrest. 0ur international correspondent 0rla guerin has the latest from the capital, caracas. all eyes now on venezuela, where it's not hard to find scenes like this. the embattled president, nicolas maduro, insists his people

are not paupers. 19—year—old anders would beg to differ. he only eats what he can find. translation: people don't throw things away anymore. before, they threw out everything — food, clothes, shoes. sometimes i don't find a thing. so i don't eat. right across the street, at the neighbourhood fruit and veg stall, plenty on display, but few customers. they talk here about the maduro diet, enforced weight loss due to hyperinflation. what can you not afford to buy any more, what things did you eat before that you can't eat now? "meat, chicken, milk," says irene. "thank god there are no toddlers in my house." "anyone who can is leaving the country. " i've got a handful of potatoes here.

if you buyjust this much, you've spent a third of the average monthly wage. and prices are skyrocketing — they've doubled in a month. food is a key battleground here for president maduro and for the opposition. it's a top priority for the opposition leader, juan guiaido, swarmed by cameras and looking like a head of state. the european union, the latest to recognise him as such. he is promising to bring in food aid if the venezuelan military will allow it through the border. "lives are at stake," he says. this would be the gateway, the border with colombia. today, as every day, venezuela ns streaming out. more than three million have fled. but president maduro is refusing all offers of aid,

angering some of his countryman. translation: i think it's really bad that the government won't accept help. they are scared that people will realise the hospitals aren't working, that nothing is working in venezuela. thank god the border is open so that we can buy food. but on venezuelan state tv, no hunger in sight, just military theatrics. president maduro making almost daily appearances now with his troops. front and centre, as commander—in—chief. he needs to keep them onside. so far, it seems he has. he is sending a none too subtle message to opponents at home and abroad — i've got the big guns, remember that. 0rla guerin, bbc news, caracas. carlos camacho is the latin american herald tribune's correspondent in caracas. he's been telling me what life is like for the people in the venezuela.

in december, the government promised a leg of pork to each holder of the social control tool. almost nobody got it, but one of these sympathisers told me that they were told to say that they had received it, never to admit that they had not received their leg of pork, so that really tells you something about what's going on here. that are being told to just, you what's going on here. that are being told tojust, you know, deny reality like in 1984. why has juan guiaido had the impact that other politicians have not had? he is young and he is very serious. he is like a preacher. he has the obama thing about him that, when he does

crack a smile, people just, thing about him that, when he does crack a smile, peoplejust, i guess, melt is one word, you know. he is like a preacher. he is lanky. he is pimply, by the way. 35, still has pimples. and after decades of a different sort of rule, he is like a breath of fresh air. and he claims to be following the constitution. he didn't want to assume the mantle of president. he declined more than once. but, you know, and that is all. if he is a politician, then he isa all. if he is a politician, then he is a master politician. because he is a master politician. because he is achieving what every politician wa nts. is achieving what every politician wants. i was going to say i think shakespeare had something injulius caesar about having to deny it more than once before you accept it but i say that as a joking reference. more seriously, the question is easy experienced enough to be able to ta ke experienced enough to be able to take on this mantle, because it is a

tremendous challenge? then he is a master politician, because he looks fresh and inexperienced, but he is really putting maduro through the paces. like today, guiaido painted a picture of humanitarian aid being just at the border in colombia, but even maduro, right, is stopping humanitarian aid at the border, and lo and behold maduro issues and order saying, humanitarian aid is to be refused and declined, you know. so, guiaido managed to paint the guy once again as the bad guy. oh my god, iwant once again as the bad guy. oh my god, i want to bring the humanitarian aid in so bad but look at this usurper, like he calls maduro. he is stopping the aid called at the border. the headlines on bbc news: the government says nissan will have to reapply for a multi—million pound package of funding, after announcing it will scrap plans to build

a new model in sunderland. underwater footage confirms there is a body in the wreckage of the plane that was carrying the footballer, emiliano sala. the government announces plans to simplify customs procedures for lorries arriving at channel ports, if there's a no—deal brexit. northern ireland's coroner has described deaths linked to counterfeit versions of the anti—anxiety drug xanax as an "escalating crisis." joe mccriskin says he's now signing off close to one death a week that's related to the fake drugs, bought illegally on the street or online. the latest figures for england and wales show the numbers of young people needing treatment has seen a significant rise. our correspondent chi chi izundu reports from belfast. it made you feel happy and it made you feel like a different person, as if, like, you know, all your problems were gone.

it made me psychotic and stuff and then it made me not be able to control my anger. 20—year—old paul lives in belfast. that's not his real name, but he's trying to rebuild his life, so wants to stay anonymous. it was a friend who introduced him to a fake xanax at the age of 17. one night, i took 56 of them and then didn't wake up. 56?! didn't wake up until the sunday, that was the friday, didn't wake up till the sunday. xanax is the brand name for the drug alprazolam, a highly—addictive tranquilizer used to treat anxiety. —— tranquiliser. you can't get it on the nhs, but you can get a private prescription for it. the vast majority of counterfeits that are dealt on the streets, bought on the dark web or social media sites can cost as little as 65p a pill. 2015 in northern ireland, we had one death where alprazolam was linked to the death, with other drugs. in 2016, there were 16 deaths. 2017, we had 26 deaths and 2018, it's looking like that might double.

i mean that's an indication of not an emerging crisis but an escalating crisis. xanax is mentioned in music and us tv shows and medical professionals in the uk have called alprazolam's use the trendy drug of the moment. experts say that northern ireland has a particular problem with prescription medication addiction, and even though you can't get xanax on the nhs, they have been surprised by the swift uptake of abuse of the drug in cities like belfast. but they're not the only ones in the uk that are concerned. deaths linked to counterfeit xanax have also been reported in scotland, england and wales, and when it comes to rehab, for the first time, public health england said the number of under 18s being treated for addiction to tranquilisers has doubled ina year. anything you ever wanted to know about addiction, but was afraid to ask. so what do we have up here?

primrose lodge is a rehab clinic. they've seen a rise in young people asking for help with tranquilliser addiction. xanax taken properly and under medical supervision works correctly. but fake xanax, mixed with other drugs, can have fatal consequences. alcohol, in particular, and xanax are both depressants, so the effects physically on the body, it slows down... they both slow down the heart rates and they can shut down the respiratory system, which can, ultimately, lead to comas or death. paul has now been clean forjust under a year, but says every day, he sees kids as young as 13 either selling or taking fake xanax and worries they'll go through what he went through. people nowadays are playing russian roulette with tablets, they're just trying to see what the next hit is and trying to do it, but it's not worth it. there's too many young people dying from it and too many fake stuff going about. the head of the un mission in yemen has warned that the seven—week ceasefire in the key port city of hudaydah is fragile.

his comments follow talks between the two sides in the country's civil war — the internationally recognised government of president hadi, backed by a saudi led coalition, and houthi rebels, who are accused of being allied with iran. the united nations says yemen is home to the world's worst humanitarian crisis, an estimated 10 million people are now suffering from extreme hunger. our chief international correspondent lyse doucet has been speaking to people in the town of kokha, in hudaydah province. in yemen, even the sea is a war zone. the morning's catch in kokha. shark for sale at the main fish market, as big as abdu, the littlest fishermen. it's a dangerous business here. men of the sea come under attack. "the houthi scared us when they were here", abdu says. he remembers apaches too, the helicopters of the saudi—led coalition. some of these men lost friends.

translation: they attacked them with air strikes. they thought they were the enemy. some of them got compensation, 30,000 saudi riyals. and they gave them new boats and engines. 30,000 saudi riyals — that's about £6,000. some say they received much more. for now, the sea is safer with the ceasefire. we're in kokha with emirati forces. they helped yemen's military and its militias recapture this city from the houthis a year ago. families are now fleeing here from front lines nearby. there's danger here too. a grenade was thrown at a camp for the displaced. seven—year—old hamed among the injured. yemen's war is a war on childhood. hamed lost part of his hand

to a landmine, in one of the world's most heavily mined countries. his fingers are shredded. do you think the ceasefire is going to hold? i don't think, because every day, gun shot in the head, shrapnel, explosion, shrapnel from landmine, every day. but if the ceasefire collapses, it will get worse in yemen. is that what you fear? yes. i fear the ceasefire, if it not — if it will stop, it will be catastrophic for the citizens. it's already been catastrophic for so many, caught between coalition bombing and blockades and houthi abuses. nabia and her two sons are all malnourished. "baby yiyad was vomiting, vomiting", she tells me. he had diarrhoea too.

five—year—old hassan has had multiple operations. drinking milk for adults made him severely ill. the baby milk was too expensive to buy. everywhere you go in yemen, you feel the crushing weight of this war, this poverty. in markets like this, there is food to buy, but yemenis can't afford it. they don't have jobs, they don't have money. and you see the evidence of that in every hospital, every clinic you visit. a ceasefire, however imperfect, in this small sliver of yemen, makes a difference, but it's just one piece in a much bigger plan to try to end this war. all of it so fragile. lyse doucet, bbc news, kokha. the energy firm ineos says the current thresholds for tremors caused by fracking before work is stopped are "unworkable" and "absurd". the company says if the rules aren't

relaxed, extracting shale gas will be impossible and the uk will face an energy crisis. fracking for shale gas involves using liquid at high pressure to fracture rocks, releasing the gas held within them, but it can cause tremors. the parents of libby squire, the missing student from hull, have made a fresh appeal for her to get in touch. hundreds of people have been involved in a four—day search to find the 21—year—old student, last seen in hull on thursday. one of the biggest names in american hip—hop, —— bin collectors in birmingham, who took part in a three—month strike in 2017, are to stage new walkouts in a row over pay. members of the unite union will go on strike two days a week from the 19th of february. birmingham city council has denied a union claim that staff who didn't walk out during the last industrial action were given extra payments. one of the biggest names in us hip—hop, the grammy—nominated rapper 21 savage, has been arrested by us immigration officials. they say he's actually from newham in north—east london

outbreaks of rain on tuesday. south—eastern areas seeing the best of the sunshine but still a caulfield here with six degrees, further south and west, ten to 12 hour afternoon high. that rain continues to push throughout the country. —— still a call deal. across the country, not quite as cold but still unsettled and although that fund will start to ease away, we still have isobars across the country which means it will be pretty breezy and there will be plenty of showers. chiefly up into the north and west, so west of scotla nd into the north and west, so west of scotland and northern ireland. that weather front will get quite a wriggle on down across the south—western into the south—east, it could produce a wet weather throughout the day on wednesday. highest values you have 11 degrees, a little bit cooler again in the far north with six or seven. that rain will ease away at the wednesday night, skies were clear, winds a little lighter and so that means at the same time, we could potentially

see more significant snow across the highlands of scotland for time. the rain elsewhere moves somewhat erratically eastwards as we go into thursday, that will clear away and leave some clearer skies and some sunshine. again, that westerly breeze just driving in sunshine. again, that westerly breezejust driving in more sunshine. again, that westerly breeze just driving in more showers along west facing coast by the middle of thursday afternoon. temperatures again, a similar story, six to seven degrees are higher. we could see a more significant change, and the pairof could see a more significant change, and the pair of pressure potentially winding its way into the atlantic could ring with a potentially the risk of gales. it is, we had this world frontal systems moving through, plenty of isobars on the charts, the winds will strengthen. we could see gales particularly across the south—western some of that rain turning quite heavy for a time as well, something to keep a close eye on with fide's weather. habs a little drier and brighter in eastern areas to daylight hours but as we go into the weekend, it is
