welcome to bbc news. i'm mike embley. our top stories: trump's mexico deal. officials say trade tariffs could still happen if the flow of migrants isn't stopped. the aftermath of a massacre in mali. the first images from a burnt—out village where almost 100 people died in ethnic violence. the vatican says people cannot decide their own gender. it has drawn strong criticism from lgbt groups. sending plastic packing. canada says it will phase out single—use items like straws and bags by 2021.

the trump administration says it could still apply trade tariffs if itjudges that mexico hasn't done enough to limit migration to the us. secretary of state mike pompeo says he expects to see results within four to six weeks. a deal negotiated last week includes more troops being sent to mexico's southern border to stem the number of arrivals. if that doesn't work, the us wants further measures, such as mexico being declared a safe country for migrants, but plans for that are unclear. here is mr trump speaking to reporters earlier. a lot of good things are happening, but i want to thank mexico, and we do have one other thing that will be announced at the appropriate time. but they have to get approval from their legislative body. what is it? why are the mexicans denying it, then? i don't think they'll be denying it very long. it's all done. the us secretary of state, mike pompeo, has called the deal diplomacy at its finest, and a significant win for the american people. i have seen some reporting that says

that these countless hours were nothing, that they amounted to a waste of time. i can tell you that the team here at the state department believes full throated lead that this is an important set of important set of understandings, one that we will continue to work on, because in the end we will be measured by the outcomes that we deliver with respect to stemming the flow of illegal immigration into our country. 0ur north america correspondent david willisjoins me now. david, what is actually in this agreement? well, mike, it depends, really, whether you take the view of the americans, or the interpretation of the americans, or the interpretation of the mexicans. because they do differ somewhat. president trump making the point that this is a strong agreement and one necessary to quell the flow of migrants across the border, the us border, with mexico. the point being made that last month saw 130,000 people crossing that border, which

is the highest in 13 years. now, what has been agreed is that mexico will expand its policy of operating holding areas for asylum seekers in the united states, and it will also send, as you were mentioning there, about 6000 national guard troops to the southern mexican border with guatemala. now, within the next 4— six weeks, the efficacy of those measures will be assessed, and then, well, there could be further measures to try to stem this problem, or if mexico is seen to be dragging its feet by the united states, then those rather punitive ta riffs states, then those rather punitive tariffs could come into operation. and david, if the agreement doesn't work in the terms that the trump administration is using, what then, do you think? well, it is possible, you mentioned there, mike, making mexico a safe country for migrants. and that would mean that migrants

applying for asylum in the united states will be made to wait out that process , states will be made to wait out that process, if you like, in mexico, unlike the present situation where they can come to the united states and wait out their fate. but the mexicans are making the point, mike, that this is something that they may not be able to control themselves, that it could require the cooperation of countries such as panama, guatemala and brazil, which are seen as key transit areas for migrants from latin america into the united states. thank you very much for that. the un peacekeeping mission in mali has sent air support to help prevent further attacks. nearly 100 people were massacred overnight in sobane—kou, in the central mopti region, which is largely populated by the dogon ethnic group. local officials have blamed fulani herdsmen. these are the latest pictures we have received, showing burnt out buildings and what is left of the village which was set on fire. the two communities often clash over access to land and water, but the dogons also accuse the fulanis of having ties to extremist groups. fulanis accuse dogon hunters

of forming militias to attack them. president ibrahim boubacar keita plans to return to the country on tuesday from a conference in switzerland. translation: at this moment, i wish to share a thought for those who once more have fallen under murderous, unjust and cowardly bullets in the dogon region. let's get some of the day's other news: there has been chaos in new york, after a helicopter crashed on top of a high rise building. officials say the pilot died at the scene. the accident happened in poor weather, as the helicopter made a hard landing onto the roof of a 54—storey building in midtown manhattan. the us government has declared it is gravely concerned about the proposed amendments to hong kong laws that would allow suspects to be extradited

to mainland china. on sunday, hundreds of thousands rallied against the bill in hong kong. many fear it will make it easier for china to target political opponents there. in an unprecedented move, three leading russian newspapers have come out with identical front pages, splashed with the words "we are ivan golunov". the prominent investigative journalist was detained last week and charged with drug—dealing, but many see the arrest and charge as punishment for his hard—hitting reports on corruption in high places. the vatican has released a new document challenging modern conceptions of gender identity. it criticises the modern understanding of gender as being more complex than the binary division of sexes. it says the current debate annihilates the concept of nature and destabilises the family. the document has drawn strong criticism from lgbt groups, who say it will encourage bigotry, hatred and violence. francis debernardo is the executive director of new ways ministry, which is an organisation that works

with lgbt catholics and the church. thank you very much indeed for your time. i don't know whether the timing was deliberate, but you may know this is of course lgbt pride month, and it is 50 years since the stonewall riots which helped define the debate about gay rights. what do you make of this document?” the debate about gay rights. what do you make of this document? i think it's a very harmful document. because it is based on bad science, bad understandings of gender, understandings of gender that come from the dark ages, that were developed under very repressive and oppressive cultures. so why do you think it has come out now, and where within the church you think it has come from? i don't know where it's come from? i don't know where it's come from? i don't know where it's come from in the church, but i do think that the problem that the vatican faces now is that more and

more catholics are welcoming lgbt people into their parishes, and the vatican, i think, people into their parishes, and the vatican, ithink, is becoming people into their parishes, and the vatican, i think, is becoming very concerned about that. yes, our gender and identity correspondence, i was just looking at this piece now, says this documentjust seems like years away from the current dialogue on a whole lot of issues involving gender, light years away from the way society is moving. yes, i think that the one truth that emerges from this document is that the vatican is ill—prepared to have a modern discussion about gender. in the document, they call for dialogue, but they are not prepared to dialogue. so where do you think this leaves the church? it's bound to push a lot of people away, isn't it? i think that it is going to hurt

and alienate many lgbt catholics and other catholics who are their supporters. but i also think that, because it is not based in reason or on science or on people's experiences, that it's basically going to be ignored by catholics. experiences, that it's basically going to be ignored by catholicsm does read, doesn't it, as if it's been written by people who have never spoken to any lgbt oi people. tax rate, the vatican has not set up a dialogue with lgbtoi people, and it's surprising, because pope francis has shown he is willing to dialogue and ready to dialogue. he has met with a transgender man and his wife, and he is very open to these ideas. but i think that there are people in the curia who are afraid of what pope francis's

openness might be doing to the church. thank you very much for talking to us. thank you. the us envoy for africa will leave for sudan on wednesday to urge the ruling military council and pro—democracy opposition groups to resume talks. the us assistant secretary for africa, tibor nagy, will call for an end to attacks against civilians. on tuesday, the regime took journalists to see hospitals which they claimed were ransacked by protestors. but, as our africa editor fergal keane reports, the propaganda tour didn't go as planned. it must have seemed like a good idea to somebody — showjournalists the government's side of the story. but as we approached our destination, the ominous reality loomed into view. the rapid support force, a militia that is terrorising the rapid support force, a militia that is terrorising civilians. they are known here as the james

wade because of their atrocities in darfur. they were camped outside the clinic we were taken to. we were shown a ransacked office — the work of protesters, the government claimed. the militia followed us, and were camera—shy. tony, roll on me, roll on me. officials pleaded with them so that we could film. this is supposed to be a propaganda trip, the government showing us the iniquities of the other side. but what it is actually turning into is a farce, because as we're going on the tour, the rapid support forces are interfering. it gives you an indication of the real story here, that, we would discover, is different from the official version. translation: this is the hospital where damage was caused by the revolutionaries. they completely destroyed the equipment, medicine and furniture. do you really believe that?

it was definitely attacked and destroyed. we can't confirm who did it, we can only confirm it was attacked. but a witness who didn't want to be identified told us it was the militia who attacked. we crossed to a hospital designed to show life returning to normal. for the last two days, this hospital was closed because of insecurity in the area. now, sick people crowded in, waiting for help, but too little available. without intending to, like so much of this propaganda journey, the government has given us an insight into the anger which fuels the protest movement — in this case, the chronic state of the health services.

the family of this 45—year—old were mourning. he died in what they said was a diabetic coma. the family had struggled to find medical help, amid the chaos of recent days, in a country being pushed beyond consolation. stay with us on bbc news. still to come: why it could soon be game over for traditional game consoles. the day the british liberated the falklands. and by tonight, british troops had begun the task of disarming the enemy. in the heart of the german capital, this was gorby—mania at its height. the crowd packed to see the man who for them, has raised great hopes for an end

to the division of europe. michaeljackson was not guilty on all charges. the screams of the crowd, a testament to his popularity and their faith in his innocence. as long as they'll pay to go and see me, i'll get out there and kick 'em down the hill. what's it feel like to be the first man to go across the channel by your own power? it's feels pretty neat. feel marvellous, really. this is bbc news, the latest headlines: the us says it could still impose trade tariffs on mexican goods if the flow of migrants isn't stopped. more now on that story. marco lopez is an international trade consultant. he is in phoenix arizona.

you have a lot of experience in this field, people are saying all is not as it appears. what do you think is really going on? one of the interesting thing is that the mexico trade negotiators have told me over this last two day experience is that the agreements that were reached with the trump administration on friday were the same agreements that had been discussed and had been agreed to back in march with the former secretary of homeland security before she was asked to step down by president trump. a lot of this is a rehash in an attempt at what many people believe is to distract from a lot of the troubles that the president is entering into with this escalated impeachment discussion. so, yes, indeed, there is an immigrant crisis at the border, related to families of central american migrants making

their way up there. but it is not new and it is certainly not an emergency that was created over the last six days. so you would agree with mr trump's critics who would suggest that this is in a sense a manufactured crisis to allow mr trump to present a triumphant?” think this has been a big distraction, and the mexican negotiators came to the table quickly to try to find a reasonable solution. there are economy is already slow and soft, and as a matter of fact they have been, the credit ratings have downgraded them twice over the last six months, so an additional impact that tariffs would have imposed on imports from mexico would have been devastating, meaning a gdp growth of less than 196, meaning a gdp growth of less than 1%, so that would have really hurt, so they acted quickly to try to stem

any additionalfallout. so they acted quickly to try to stem any additional fallout. and yet there is a real problem, isn't there? the flow of people coming from central america through mexico to the southern border have real problems themselves. they have great need, but they are a problem for mexico and for the united states. yes, and it is interesting because the foreign minister from yes, and it is interesting because the foreign ministerfrom mexico was in washington two weeks ago trying to present to the trump administration a plan that was agreed to by the northern triangle countries, guatemala, el salvador, and honduras, together with mexico, that would have meant additional investment in those countries to try to stem the move of migrants leaving. that is really the basis of this, investing in those countries so economic opportunities will keep people there and —— instead of having them moved to the mexican border. unfortunately, mike pompeo

didn't meet with the representative, he ended up having a last—minute meeting at the white house, and now we understand that it is again on the table that the us might consider not cutting funding for those countries as the president had proposed two and half weeks ago. it isa proposed two and half weeks ago. it is a lot of mixed messages. a lot of sources at customs and border control are telling me, a lot of those that i worked out with the past, they are saying that luckily they are going into the summer months, a very warm climate, so naturally those numbers are going to come down. i think it gives mexico a 45 day reprieve before the next onslaught of bullying from president trump. he would have a view on that, of course. marco lopez, thank you very much indeed. now to a case that's sparked protests across india and headlines worldwide . the rape, torture and murder

of an eight—year—old muslim girl, in a hindu temple. six men have been found guilty — they include police officers and a government official. there was horror, obviously, at the attack, but also at the fact that hindu, right—wing, groups protested over the arrest of the men. in the kashmir valley, our correspondent divya arya spoke to the girls' parents. under indian law, we are not identifying them. hundreds of kilometres away from the cold, a mother's weight has ended. her eyes filled with tears as she heard about the verdict on those who raped her daughter. translation: even though i knew if i had to sell my livestock and go hungry, i would not hesitate. my daughter deserves justice at all costs. last year, when her daughter took their horses for grazing, she did not return. a

week later her dead body was found. her mother says she still searches for herface her mother says she still searches for her face among other children who do the same work. people in this community are still living by herding animals. for this nomadic community, which spends its cooler months of the year in the hindu dominated jumbo, and the hotter times of year in the kashmir valley, dominated by muslims, it is difficult. the accused in the rape of the girl were all hindus, and they tortured her after kidnapping and confining her to a temple. this led to ethnic tension in the area last year. according to the sister of the girl, that has still not changed. translation: we are very scared of hindu man. if they can attack a small girl we could be next. now i only venture out when

accompanied by family. i have lost all my hindu girlfriends also, i miss them a lot. the family is ready to move again. they are hopeful that the strong verdict will have a deep impact on both communities. and slowly, the atmosphere of fear will change too. canada's announced a ban on the single—use plastics that are most harmful to the environment and the world's oceans. prime ministerjustin trudeau says the ban on items such as straws, cutlery, bags, and cotton buds will come into effect in two years' time. the european union made a similar decision in march. tim allman reports. floating almost serenely beneath the waves, this isn't a jellyfish — this isa waves, this isn't a jellyfish — this is a plastic bag. and here, fish swimming through discarded netting, more sea life endangered by man—made

pollution. each year, millions of tons of plastic are dumped into the world's oceans, but one by one, countries say they will do something about it. plastic pollution is a global challenge. you have all heard the stories and seen the photos, and to be honest, as a dad, it is tough trying to explain this to my kids. canada alone froze away around 3 million tons of plastic waste each year. bags, straws, cutlery — things that do make life a little more convenient. but it seems people are willing to make sacrifices. convenient. but it seems people are willing to make sacrificesm convenient. but it seems people are willing to make sacrifices. if you see any pictures on the news or online of oceans of plastic and animals that are getting killed by eating it, whales, turtles et cetera, i think it is stupid to have a straw for five minutes for a latte

or whatever and then it goes in the ocean. i mean, or whatever and then it goes in the ocean. i mean, come or whatever and then it goes in the ocean. i mean, come on, give me a break. canada and the european union have already made commitments to dramatically reduce plastic waste in the coming years, but there is still a long way to go to clean the earth's oceans. the video game world is descending on los angeles for the start of the annual e3 convention. it's a chance for companies to show off all their latest stuff. but with many game—makers moving to streaming services, the days of the traditional game console may be numbered. there is a battle brewing at this yea r‘s e3 games there is a battle brewing at this year's e3 games show, and it is not in the games itself but in how we will be playing them in the future. because, where the games consoles used to be centre stage here, now all of the talk is that we will soon be streaming games as well. microsoft kicks things off, announcing its new service called

x—cloud. announcing its new service called x-cloud. i am streaming a game called x—cloud now, and this is powerful enough to play a game like this. the game itself is actually being hosted on a console insider server 400 miles away. microsoft's announcement comes after google caused a stir, signalling it wanted to get into gaming. google says its new game streaming service, called stadia, could signal the end of the console. but, while streaming tv and movies is commonplace, big questions are being asked about streaming games and if it will work reliably over domestic internet connections. people are struggling to run for ——4k netflix. people are struggling to run for --4k netflix. other game developers

believe that although the quality could be a bit lower, modern home networks can handle it, so what is the future of gaming? google is making bold statements about stadia and no console required, some people are saying the console is dead. is that true? the industry has millions of customers who look at the console they have an view it as vital to their experience, we are not about to tell them they are wrong. the producers are hedging their bets, and it is true that streaming could be the future, but it is not all overfor be the future, but it is not all over for the be the future, but it is not all overfor the gaming be the future, but it is not all over for the gaming console just yet. this is not a videogame— these are locusts, and they are among millions wreaking havoc in sardinia. the invasion has been linked to a recent rise in temperatures after months of cooler weather on the island. and you can get in touch with me

and most of the team on twitter — i'm @bbc mike embley. tuesday is going to bring further heavy rain and there could be a lot of it, particularly across northern parts of england, the midlands, and wales. on monday, the heaviest of the rainfall was actually across eastern parts of the country in the south—east. if we look at europe, the big picture, we can see over the last two or three days, most of the clouds seem to be stuck across... from northern spain, france, germany, the uk. we have seen big thunderstorms on the near continent, heavy rain here, of course. eastern parts of europe a different story, a few summertime showers and thunderstorms but on the whole a lot of sunshine and very hot, and the reason for this is that this vortex has formed across western europe. it has been dragging cold air all the way from the north across the uk, france

and into spain, whereas this side of europe, warm air has been coming from the south, affecting central and eastern areas, so warsaw, for example, has been in excess of 30 degrees, when it was only 12 degrees in london. on tuesday, the early hours, rain across most of northern england, the midlands, wales, the south—west, just about starting to dry out in the extreme south—east, but no real rainfall across scotland and northern ireland except for a few showers. in fact, first thing in the morning there will probably be some sunshine in belfast, glasgow and edinburgh. the weather front is stuck. in fact, the whole weather pattern across europe is stuck, it is not moving or moving very slowly. through tuesday, this band of weather, band of heavy rain, will very slowly drift, at a glacial pace it will move its way towards the north. it will continue to rain across yorkshire all through the day, the north—west of england, wales, the south—west, it sort of curls back into the centre of the low. the south—east will see

sunshine and heavy showers. in the north of the country there will be some sunshine around. at times it will be cloudy, but dry at least. on wednesday, the weather system is still with us, a sense of things spiralling very slowly around, and again, more heavy showers being pushed into the uk, so again, it continues to remain very wet across many parts of the country into wednesday. wednesday and thursday, the low pressure is still with us, so this pattern is not in a hurry to change. it will be on the cool side, in fact, as far as the rest of the week is concerned very little change really, at times will be quite windy as well.

this is bbc news. the headlines: the us says it could still apply trade tariffs if itjudges that mexico hasn't done enough to limit migration to the us. secretary of state mike pompeo says he expects to see results within four to six weeks. a deal negotiated last week includes more troops being sent to mexico's southern border to stem the number of arrivals. the vatican has released a new document challenging modern conceptions of gender identity. it says people should not be able to choose their gender, and that the current debate annihilates the concept of nature and destabilises the family. the document has drawn strong criticism from lgbt groups. canada has announced a ban on the single—use plastics that are most harmful to the environment and the world's oceans. prime ministerjustin trudeau says the ban on items such as straws,
