estimated billion people. iamon i am on top of the world, i am so happy! iam i am on top of the world, i am so happy! i am so proud of their at kohli! thank you. —— virat kohli. good morning, it's 1:00am in london, 8:00am in singapore, and here in hong kong, where the outcry over a controversial extradition bill has led to the third mass protest in a week. the bill, which was indefinitely suspended on saturday, would allow extradition to the chinese mainland. hong kong's chief executive, carrie lam, issued a rare apology for the upheaval. this is live near to where we are, where as you can see there are more people out on the streets.

it is monday morning, and of course on sunday we saw as many as 2 million people, organisers say, on the streets. if you take a look, some of them are wearing hard hats asa some of them are wearing hard hats as a way of defending themselves from the police, who were trying to clear the streets earlier. there have been a lot of concerns and an outcry over what many people say was an excessive use of police force last week, and some of those protesters trying to protect themselves from any of that further action. this report from rupert wingfield hayes. chanting. in the sweltering heat of a sunday afternoon, they came out again in their hundreds of thousands. a sea of black t—shirts, the now unofficial uniform of these protests.

today they wore no facemasks or helmets and had just one chant. "withdraw the bill." these are truly remarkable scenes we're seeing here in the centre of hong kong again this afternoon. it's notjust this street that is jammed with protesters, it's the next one over and the next one beyond that. all of these people chanting, "withdraw the bill". all heading to the centre of hong kong to surround the government's offices. this is a massive display of discontent with carrie lam and her government. your message for her today is what? is to stop it. to stop hong kong people from being two groups, going out and fighting with each other. we are one hong kong and not two hong kongs. so she should stop what she's doing so in order not to make the people so angry and so going out and fighting with each other. yesterday carrie lam said she will suspend...

not acceptable! withdraw! totally withdraw. not acceptable to hold. we need to withdraw it. this is what we want, all the people — hong kong people. tonight, under immense pressure from this huge protest, hong kong's chief executive released a grovelling apology. butjust as mrs lam was sending her apology, protesters were setting up a shrine to the first martyr claimed by this movement. the flowers and candles are for a man who fell to his death on saturday night after climbing a building to unfurl a protest banner. the sea of protesters then surrounded the government headquarters. the police were on their best behaviour, no helmets, shields or barriers in sight.

but if today's protest shows anything, it's the public anger here will not be assuaged until the hated extradition bill is gone. rupert wingfield—hayes, bbc news, in hong kong. well, it is the monday morning after those massive protests, and that report you saw on sunday. today we are expecting some strike action from various organisations, and also, i should add, that in spite of those numbers of peoples you saw on the street, authorities are saying the street, authorities are saying the actual number was 330,000, that is what they are reporting at its peak, but organisers say it was as many as 2 million. real discrepancies in the number of people who took to the streets, but there is still a lot of anger here over the extradition bill, and over what many people saw as an excessive use of police force against

protesters last week. i will be back later in the programme for more. those live pictures showing that protesters are once again regrouping on the streets. a massive electrical fault across south america has left tens of millions of people without access to power. the exact cause is still unclear, but a blackout of this size is unprecedented. argentina, uruguay and parts of paraguay have been affected, according to one of the region's largest suppliers. it's caused major disruptions in cities like buenos aires. chris buckler has more. at first light, much of south america was left in darkness. a massive power outage left tens of millions of people without electricity and crippled communications in city after city. in argentina, people

were preparing to go to the polls, but with trains halted by the power cuts and all the traffic lights out in the streets, several provinces took the decision to temporarily delay local elections. this was a failure on a quite remarkable scale. a 25—minute trip took me almost an hour and a half to be completed, and during the journey i saw three collisions. the collapse of argentina's national grid caused a blackout that stretched notjust across this country, but throughout uruguay, and even into some parts of brazil and paraguay. businesses were left scrambling to fire up generators in an effort to save their stock. translation: we don't know much. what i read was on facebook, where it said that the problem came from argentina, but the truth is we really don't know a lot. energy companies have been struggling to determine the cause of these unprecedented problems.

slowly throughout the day, customers have been reconnected, but by early evening that's still left half of argentina without electricity and preparing for what could be a long, dark night. chris buckler, bbc news. let's take a look at some of the day's other news. the wife of the israeli prime minister, sara netanyahu, has admitted she misused public funds and agreed to pay the state $15,000. under a plea deal with prosecutors, more serious fraud charges against her were dropped. yolande knell reports from jerusalem. although she was smiling in court, this long—running case has been humiliating for sara neta nyahu and reinforced public perceptions that her family lived a lavish lifestyle. mrs netanyahu was originally charged with ordering in hundreds of restaurant meals with around £80,000, paid for with public funds and that wasn't allowed

because the prime minister's residence employs a cook. under her final plea agreement she admitted intentionally exploding the mistake of a member of staff. prosecutors dropped the more serious offence of fraud but she will be left with a criminal record. meanwhile, the prime minister still faces his own legal troubles. three corruption cases in which he denies wrongdoing. he faces a pre—trial hearing weeks after another general election in september being called because he failed to form a government after an earlier vote. staying with israel and prime minister benjamin netanyahu has unveiled a new settlement in the occupied golan heights, named after us president donald trump. speaking at a naming ceremony, mr netanyahu said trump heights honoured mr trump for his decision to recognise israeli sovereignty over the territory.

critics have called the move a publicity stunt with no legal authority. the deposed president of sudan, 0mar al—bashir, has been charged with corruption and the illegal possession of foreign currency. making his first appearance in public since he was overthrown in april, he was driven in a heavily armed convoy from prison to the prosecutor's office. his trial is due to start next week. wildlife experts in bangladesh say the first indian grey wolf to be seen in the country in eight decades has been killed by farmers. they said locals in a town near the sundarba ns, the world's biggest mangrove forest that straddles india and bangladesh, captured and killed the wolf after it attacked their livestock. the group of 20 major economies have signed a commitment to reduce plastic waste. the g20 environment and energy ministers made the annoucement at a meeting injapan, ahead of the g20 summit there later this month.

little detail has been revealed on how the pledge will be implemented, but local media are reporting the scheme would be voluntary. this picture has been shared by the duke and duchess of sussex of their six—week—old son, archie, with prince harry on father's day. here i am in hong kong, and it is monday morning, the day after those massive protests we were reporting on sunday. authorities say almost 350,000 people took to the streets, while protest organisers say almost 2 million were in the streets. with me is samson yuen assistant professor of political science at lingnan univeristy here in hong kong. it is interesting, you were at the protests yesterday and you were

there to do research, you were surveying the people there, what did you find out? we interviewed around 700 people, and we found that 40% of them actually didn't come to last sunday's protest. yesterday feels much bigger, and it is much bigger than last sunday from the numbers we are looking at, and from the demands of the people it seems that they are asking for the retraction of the bill once and for all, notjust its suspension. and they are notjust demanding an apology from carrie lam, but they are asking for her not to support police violence, and also to support police violence, and also to brand the protests not as a riot, not as an organised riot. that was a keyissue, not as an organised riot. that was a key issue, if it was branded a riot people could face a ten yearjail sentence potentially. but also we are seeing a drop in numbers. this has happened twice already. police

are saying the numbers are much smaller than what the organisers are saying, yet there are lots of people, we know, we saw them on the streets, and they come from all segments of society. we found out that people are from across the political spectrum, notjust that people are from across the political spectrum, not just the moderate democrats, but also people from the establishment and also from the more radical ones. and also some who claim that they have no political stance at all. so you basically have a whole range of people coming to the protests yesterday. and leading up to it as well there was online petitions from mothers and housewives, a real segment of society being represented. but what is also interesting is the difference between these protests and the umbrella movement protests that we saw in 2014, and that was sort of an

occu py saw in 2014, and that was sort of an occupy central protest, people camping out for days. this feels a little different. of course, it got violent last week and there were concerns about that. yes, people here are not intending to occupy the streets for a long time like the umbrella movement. the nature of the protest was very different. the umbrella movement was about seeking universal suffrage, but this is about asking the government to shelve or retract this bill. there will be more confrontational actions from police when police come to clear them. i think in its nature it is very different. indeed, and we are watching that very closely. thank you forjoining us. sampson will stay with us, he will be talking about the newspaper coverage, the way the media has been covering these stories.

india continued their world cup dominance over rivals pakistan with a rain—affected 89—run victory as a highly anticipated match came to an end at old trafford in manchester. pakistan, chasing 337, collapsed to 166 for 6 before a rain delay saw their target revised to another 136 runs from just 30 balls — a near—impossible task. among the fans, here's the bbc‘s rajini vaidyanathan from delhi. tonight they're celebrating in this cricket—crazy nation. no match matters more in india. here, no victory tastes as sweet as a win over pakistan. i feel very great and this is a very proud moment for india. we've won the match. i'm really on top of the world. i'm so happy, i'm really proud of my team.

we think pakistan is the best thing in the world. i feel it's my victory, india won. the excitement here is electric. the sporting rivalry between india and pakistan runs deep. so too do the political rivalries between the two nuclear neighbours. right now the leaders of india and pakistan couldn't be further apart. when both attended a summit last week they barely spoke. pakistan's prime minister, former cricket captain imran khan, said relations between the two nations were at their lowest point. back in his home country the mood was also low as fans accepted defeat. we didn't seem to be playing very well throughout the game, especially while we were batting, so that was disappointing. meanwhile in india the party continues. to many fans here this match means more than winning the world cup itself. rajini vaidyanathan, bbc news, delhi. some great celebrations there. you're watching

newsday on the bbc. stay with us, coming up on the programme. how australia is making efforts to preserve some of its traditional languages, before they are lost forever. there was a bomb in the city centre. a code word known to be one used by the ira was given. army bomb experts were examining a suspect van when there was a huge explosion. the south african parliament has destroyed the foundation of apartheid by abolishing the population registration act, which for 40 years forcibly classified each citizen according to race. germany's parliament, the bundestag, has voted by a narrow majority to move the seat government from bonn to berlin. berliners celebrated into the night but the decision was greeted with shock in bonn. just a day old and the royal baby is tonight sleeping in his cot at home. early this evening the new prince was taken by his mother and father

to their apartments in kensington palace. the real focus today was valentina tereshkova, the world's first woman cosmonaut. what do you think of the russian woman in space? i think it's a wonderful achievement and i think we might be able to persuade the wife it would be a good idea if i could to get her to go up there for a little while. i'm kasia madera in london. our top stories. 0rganisers say nearly two million people have taken part in a mass protest in hong kong against a controversial extradition bill. power is being restored to argentina and uruguay after a massive electrical failure hit large parts of both countries. the argentine president has promised a full investigation.

let's ta ke let's take a look at how the newspapers are reporting these protests here in hong kong. i have two of the papers here. this is the south china morning post and you can see a large picture of the demonstration from sunday and the march forces an apology from carrie lam. a rare apology we heard from the chief executive. this is another daily newspaper. a massive photograph on their front cover. but that extends round to the back cover as well, of the demonstration, taken from an aerial point of view. you canjust from an aerial point of view. you can just see the scale of the demonstration, how many people were filling the street on sunday and this comes one week after another massive protest that turned violent last wednesday. i am joined by samson again whose has stayed with us. what is interesting about the coverage here in hong kong is that we know hong kong has a free press. this is a city with a great level of

autonomy unlike china. it is all pa rt autonomy unlike china. it is all part of the one country to systems principle in china. how has it been? i don't think this has been reported in china. the big global ones may have an editorial but generally we don't see this in the newspapers. it is being heavily censored in social media so ourfriends is being heavily censored in social media so our friends from mainland china were shocked about what is happening and rumours are flying around in china that this event was instigated by the foreign forces. what do they mean by foreign forces? it isa what do they mean by foreign forces? it is a vague four —— term. it mostly just means it is a vague four —— term. it mostlyjust means the west, countries from the west such as united states. and foreign forces have been —— they say foreign forces have been —— they say foreign forces have been —— they say foreign forces have been middling with politics and

that they are trying to meddle with chinese politics. and foreign media potentially is well labelled among the. thank you so much samson for staying with us and making sense of all of this for us. i will be back later on in the programme to look ahead to what is expected today. yes thank you we will rejoin you in hong kong to our building up. —— as a protest is building up. australia was once home to around 300 different indigenous languages, spoken by aboriginal communities. todayjust 13 traditional languages are being handed down, most have either disappeared or are critically endangered. but efforts are being made to preserve them. 0ur correspondent hywel griffith has been to kununurra, in far northern western australia. this is miriwoong country. a land of vast open skies that straddles modern day state boundaries. the miriwoong people have been here for

tens of thousands of years but in recent decades, their language has come under threat. so we can see right across the miriwoong land? yeah. david and agnes are two of just a handful of surviving, fluent speakers. to them, miriwoong is woven into this landscape. there's language all around you. everything we see, has language. everything that moves has language. modern things come, we just have to give it a name in miriwoong. like when the first car arrived in our country, miriwoong people gave it a name. and that actually comes from the sound that it makes. before european settlement, australia was home to around 300 indigenous languages, now only a dozen are left with more than 1,000 speakers. languages are normally handed down

from one generation to the next but in australia, in indigenous communities, that link was broken decades ago when aboriginal children were taken from their families and put under the care of european settlers. and so, to revive miriwoong, they need a new generation. every week, 400 pupils at local schools have lessons, regardless of whether they have aboriginal heritage. my favourite word in miriwoong is joowinyin, and that means crocodile. my favourite miriwoong word means grandma. my favourite word in miriwoong means swimming. a lot of money has been put into trying to save miriwoong but the team of linguists working here say the impact is far—reaching. there is research that says indigenous people learning their ancestral language are more likely to be successful in life. which means they are more

likely to get a job, they are more likely to attend school. they also are less likely to struggle with substance abuse, they are less likely to commit serious crimes. there is no certainty that all this effort will pay off. but here they are trying everything to make sure miriwoong is a living, breathing language for decades to come. let's hope that that initiative is successful. we can see protesters, the numbers building up behind you. what are you expecting monday morning? we are expecting more protests this week and this monday morning, the day after the massive protests on sunday, there are still people on the streets. there is also police gathering around where we are

at the moment. they have riot gear on and it looks like they are under instruction to clear the streets this monday morning as business goes back to usual. this is a very business oriented city. a financial centre and it is all back to work this monday. of course there is still much anger and frustration amongst people who want to see their city free of chinese interference. it isa city free of chinese interference. it is a worrying development. thank you very much and we will be keeping an eye on that throughout the day. ina an eye on that throughout the day. in a moment we will have an interview with the wife of the form and the sound ceo charged with financial crimes. nissan say there is substantial evidence against him but his wife labels the charges a conspiracy. from me and the team, many thanks for watching and we will see you very soon with the latest from hong kong.

hello again. following all the heavy rain that we had last week, all that water has been running off hills and into our river catchments. this is the river severn is looking and a number of flood warnings still in force. an area of low pressure has been influencing the weather across the uk every single day of this month so far and for monday, the low pressure is just to the west of ireland, continuing to bring showers and lengthy outbreaks of rain. if you are heading outside over the next hour or two, take the wet weather gear across northern scotland because the rain will be heavy. a few showers for northern ireland and some rain working in as well across wales and part of north—west england. it is a mild start to the morning so you do not need too many layers out

and about to through monday, through monday, out and about, the front is not going to move very far very quickly. to the north, to the finals of england, northern ireland and scotland, it is a day of heavy infantry showers and limited bright and sunny spells. across the southern east midlands, east anglia and much of southern england, the weather should stay largely dry with some warm june sunshine and temperatures reaching the low 20s. the good news is we finally lose the influence of this area of low pressure mid week and the bad news was that we have another area of low pressure moving in from the south bringing the threat of some more heavy and potentially foundry rain. this is how tuesday starts off. wet weather starts the day in highland scotland, gradually moving eastwards with time. dry start elsewhere but starting to turn a bit cloudier later in the day and feeling perhaps a little more humid as well across the south of wales and southern parts of england.

we may start to see some showers break out late in the day. low showers, we already have my office warning for these, late on tuesday through tuesday night and into wednesday, the amount of rain that we get will vary a lot from place to place. even that the ground is completely saturated, where we do get the heavy downpours coming through we could see some surface water flooding building very quickly. there is a risk of some disruption to road and rail. the exact position of the thundery downpours are still open to doubt, a large spread of east—west movement but it mostly looks like england at risk and perhaps a little rain into eastern parts of wales. through wednesday also some heavy showers again through northern ireland and scotland bringing unsettled weather but the weather has not been as wet across this part of the uk as other areas so hopefully that rain will not be impactful.

our top story: 0rganisers of sunday's mass protest in hong kong against a controversial extradition bill say nearly two million people took part. this would make it the biggest demonstration in the territory's history. but police say turnout was around 340,000. the demonstration went ahead despite the government's decision to suspend the bill. millions of people in argentina, uruguay and paraguay are still without power after a massive electrical failure in the region. argentina's president says electricity has now been restored to half of the country. and india's cricket win is really popular on our website. indian cricket fans celebrate after their team defeated pakistan in a world cup match watched by an estimated television audience of one billion. that's all.
