12:02 am
for information on his whereabouts shares a border with rwanda. he and some experts believed he was seen as a potential future arrived here two weeks ago but it is leader of the group. only last week that he started showing symptoms and was directly put ina showing symptoms and was directly put in a ebola treatment centre that was newly—built in the town of goma. the co—ordinator of the ebola washington correspondent response team in the whole drc says chris buckler. we are awaiting official word from that this patient reached the treatment centre in critical condition, and unfortunately died. on this from the us but hamza bin now, teams have been deployed to track everybody who may have been in touch with him, so that they will be laden is apparently killed in some offered vaccination or tested to see kind of operation. that's all we if they don't have any treatment. know at the moment but we do know and the professor said he is very optimistic about the fight against american officials have been searching for him for some time. ebola. so a year of ebola in our earlier this year they offered a $1 million reward for information if country, it is unresolved. and now they can find him, and that's we are there to stop this outbreak, because they've become increasingly concerned about hamza bin laden. and we will work to avoid the they say he'd been emerging as a key figure within al-qaeda, and also spreading of the disease, to close beyond that he had released a number of audio and video messages which
12:03 am
concerned them, where he specifically called upon his the borders, to other countries. and supporters to attack america and its iam allies apparently in revenge for the the borders, to other countries. and i am confident that will work and killing of his father by us special stop this outbreak as soon as possible. this will mark one year forces. osama bin laden was of course killed in 2011 after being discovered in a safe house in since the ebola outbreak was declared in the drc. this is the pakistan. 10th and so far the worst to hit the as you say, chris, he was seen by country. it has affected more than a nalysts as as you say, chris, he was seen by analysts as a potential successor to 2500 people and has killed more than his father but he is believed about 30 years old, making him pretty much 1700 people. community resistance a child when september the 11th first happened. what more do we know and insecurity have been slowing down the response. however, the about the circumstances? i suppose response leaders have said they are we will find that out very shortly, changing their strategies to make sure they contain and eradicate it that led to this? we know he was in the coming months. about 30, but as you say, the fact we don't even know his exact age gives a sense of how shadowy a figure he was, but he was somebody if you love spicy food, who had been beside his father, 0sama who had been beside his father, osama bin laden, whenever he was a new study might have you thinking a p pa re ntly osama bin laden, whenever he was apparently plotting and planning those attacks on the 20 hours on twice about reaching for that extra chilli. 9/11. and although he was a child at according to researchers,
12:04 am
chinese adults who consumed more the time, it does seem that his than 50 grams of dried or fresh father was planning for him to become a key figure of the chilli peppers each day almost leadership of al-qaeda even back doubled their risk of memory then. in 2011 when us special forces decline and poor cognition. raided that compound and killed and it's quite an in—depth study, following more than 11,500 0sama raided that compound and killed osama bin laden, they apparently found letters written by bin laden people over 15 years. dr ming li is an epidemiologist where he wrote he was grooming his from the university of south australia and son to succeed him. it gives you an a co—author of the study. idea of the concerned americans had about him, but more recently, and it i think this is at quite an early is certainly fair to say in recent stage, in terms of the association. yea rs is certainly fair to say in recent years we've heard less about there are a lot of other factors al-qaeda than some other groups, certainly less than we did in the that should be further studied, like in china we have a vast area which early 20005, but they were still concerned there was danger from them has different climate patterns. so and they were plotting and planning whether the climate pattern would attacks and hamza bin laden wa5 behind some of those. chris buckler with the latest from washington. determine this causation, needs there are reports so far of hamza further study. and also the bin laden‘5 death and we are keeping mechanism, more research is needed. ic, and why did you start looking at an eye out for the official this in the first place? it seems to
12:05 am
confirmation, and we will bring that straight to you. some people, i am sure, quite odd let's take a look at some of the day's other news. that you would be the potential effects of chilis in the first the us central bank, the federal reserve, has cut interest rates place. because, you know, we are from a range of 2% to 2.25%. the 0.25% cut is the first since the financial crisis 10 years ago. faced with the ageing society that here's how the chairman of the fed, is emerging in china, and also we jerome powell, explained the reasons behind the move. saw — already published papers the outlook for the us economy regarding chilly intake and remains favourable, and this action mortality, chilly intake with body i5 remains favourable, and this action weight, chilly intake with is designed to support that outlook. it is intended to ensure against hypertension, and for the mental downside ri5ks it is intended to ensure against downside risks from weaker global health part, this is actually a growth and trade policy uncertainty, series of studies we have been to help offset the effects of these factors a re currently conducting —— chilli. we have been to help offset the effects of these factors are currently having on the economy, and to promote a faster doing nut intake and also in intake. return of inflation to our symmetric 296 return of inflation to our symmetric 2% objective. 0ur north america this time we do chilli intake with bu5ine55 correspondent michelle fleury has been following the story from washington. here's her take on the rate cut. it seems this is probably going to cognition and health. bea it seems this is probably going to be a 1—off, that we're not going to 5ee be a 1—off, that we're not going to see a lot of rate cuts and that really from the press conference and

12:11 am
this is one protester's 5tory. most likely from the north—west of scotla nd most likely from the north—west of scotland down into east anglia. plenty of sunny spells, however. the sunshine itself, though, could produce a few homegrown showers for example across the north—east of scotland. 0ne example across the north—east of scotland. one or two of the showers again could be heavier. i can't rule out thunder and lightning entirely, but it should be nowhere near as expensive as it has been in the last couple of days. just the chance of a few showers developing across dorset, devon and cornwall come the afternoon. up to 25, in what should bea afternoon. up to 25, in what should be a sunny london. there is a slim chance of one or two showers breaking out across the midland through the afternoon. we may see some evidence of those for day one of the ashes at edgbaston, but hopefully we're to get away with it here, with some sunny spells and hires about 20, 20 one degree. for the evening and overnight, many of the evening and overnight, many of the showers clear as a lopressor centre wells across to towards the netherlands. we are left with quite a bit of cloud, though, and in some spots with just light winds it could turn misty and murky. overnight lows
