the family. the thoughts and sympathies of the naval service go out to the family and friends of the individual. the incident is under investigation and so it would be inappropriate to comment further. we know this is linked to an incident a little earlier that had been reported. he was in a life—threatening condition, he or she, after a training exercise on tregantle beach in cornwall. we have that up there for you. apparently, the group had been practising an assault from a landing craft at tregantle beach near plymouth when a man got into difficulty in the water. the ambulance service was alerted at 2200 hrs gmt on thursday after a person had gone under water. the recruit, who had been in full kit, was taken to hospital, the bbc defence correspondent said that the recruit was resuscitated after being

covered unconscious by the landing craft crew. the royal navy now confirming the sad death of the royal marine injured in an incident earlier this week. at least 41 people are now known to have died from the coronavirus in china. the number of confirmed cases has risen to around 1,300. the virus has spread to europe for the first time, with three cases confirmed in france. there have also been three more people identified as having the virus in australia, bringing the total to four. 0ur correspondent, stephen mcdonnell, has gone to the chinese province of hubei, where the outbreak began. the authorities are starting to lock down this entire province of nearly 60 million people, where the coronavirus emergency began. hospitals in wuhan have been overwhelmed with the sick. state media has reported that one doctor treating people with the virus has died. military medics have been flown in to help with the crisis, as have specialist doctors from shanghai. but the challenge remains considerable, with the infection

rate ever on the increase. this is hubei province, where this virus emergency started. as you can see, it is pretty quiet, on the first day of the year of the rat. all these shops are closed. there's pretty much nobody on the street here. those who are out on the streets are wearing masks. and you can understand why. people are very worried, and people just don't know for how long it's going to be like this, for how long they have to stay indoors or risk being infected with this potentially deadly coronavirus, which causes pneumonia. the leader of hong kong, carrie lam, has declared the virus an emergency there. she held a news conference earlier this morning. translation: the level has

been raised to serious. today, i would like to announce that we are going to escalate it to the topmost level, that is emergency. in other words, when our response level is reached at emergency level, the interdepartmental coordinating committee will be chaired by myself, the chief executive, and we have a command centre, so that we can get the views from the experts and we can come up with the strategies as well as the initiatives and, with this public health event, i think you will understand that sometimes we need to be very quick in making decisions. therefore, having it coming under chief executive, we can then make the decisions for the society of hong kong. kathleen bell is a british ex—pat living in wuhan who is heeding the warnings to stay at home.

she says that local government officials there are coming under fire for the way they have been dealing with the outbreak. there have been new policies put into place, and there has been a crackdown by the local government. i do think that heads will roll in local government. there is a chinese chat group, where local people are wondering about how they can build an isolation hospital within five days, but they still can't get enough masks to people. 0r tests to diagnose whether they have the virus, or not. the uk's leading mental health charity for military veterans, combat stress, has said it is unable to deal with new cases because of cuts in funding. from monday, former service personnel in england and wales will be redirected

to the nhs for treatment. the charity helps treat servicemen and women suffering from complex mental health problems. 0ur correspondent, chi chi izundu, reports. they're known as tough and resilient, but being in the military can be an incredibly stressful job. reports after reports have shown the impact it can have on the mental health of personnel, but now one of the leading charities for veterans‘ mental health is warning, from monday, thanks to funding cuts, it will now have to stop taking on new referrals. combat stress says it receives around 2,000 referrals for treatment every year, but its income has fallen from £16 million to £10 million in this current financial year. very, very reluctantly — i think this is the only time the organisation has ever considered doing this — we have decided that we need to make sure we can meet the needs of everyone who is currently in our system and we are not going to take referrals in england and wales

where we have the greatest risks of safety, if you like, for the near future. the charity says it still receives more than £1 million from nhs scotland, so can still take referrals from there, but 90% of its income comes from public donations, and with nhs england and nhs wales cutting their funding, they've had to make tough decisions. all new referrals will now be redirected to the nhs, but a number of groups and charities have warned of a spike in the number of veterans taking their own lives. earlier i spoke to major richard streatfeild, a former commanding officer, who served in helmand, afghanistan. he's concerned that combat stress is going to be dealing with fewer veterans from monday. i think it is a real problem. we need the expertise of combat stress to help the growing problem of veterans‘ mental health.

we know that 80% of veterans do not receive mental health treatment on the nhs, and combat stress is a vital part of the ability for veterans to get treatment. can you explain your experience of serving, and that of your colleagues, and the impact afterwards? i was on one of the most intense tours of afghanistan in 2009. we had 800 firefights and about 200 roadside bombs which went off in our area of operations, affecting about 150 people. we were all graded as red on the trauma risk management scale, the most severely traumatised. many colleagues were killed and lots were injured. and being exposed to that level of trauma is a bit like being exposed to radiation. some people get affected immediately, and the burns are very obvious, but for some people it takes a long time for the cancer

of post—traumatic stress to develop and then to come out. we need a process to be funded by the government where people are identified. i am pleased to be leading a call in tomorrow's daily mirror for people to be screened and treated by charities like combat stress, who understand the military ethos as much as they understand the mental health issues that can come along with being exposed to trauma. what are those issues? how does it impact and affect people? it is insidious. post—traumatic stress never really travels alone. it is co—morbid, generally, with substance abuse, either alcohol or drugs, it comes with anxiety, social isolation and often depression. and the thing about veterans is they have been selected,

they have been trained, they have gone through lots of experience that had tempered their character, and they have been bonded through adversity, and they are used to coping with high levels of stress. and they can cope until they don't, and what we are seeing at the moment is higher levels of lifetime self—harm, higher levels of suicide than we have ever seen before amongst a growing population, and what is absolutely required is a screening of those people and then treatment. a former commanding officer who served in afghanistan. two people have died in a house fire in hull, including an eight—year—old girl. humberside fire and rescue were called to wensley avenue this morning. a man was pronounced

dead at the scene, while the eight—year—old girl died in hospital. the cause of the fire is unknown. rescue workers in eastern turkey are continuing to search for survivors after an earthquake killed at least 21 people and left more than 900 injured. the 6.8 magnitude quake, which centred on the town of sivrice in elazig province, caused buildings to collapse and was felt in neighbouring countries. gareth barlow reports. rescuers carry sui’vivoi’s out from the rubble. the 6.8 magnitude quake sent buildings crashing to the ground and residents rushing into the streets. the exact moment the earthquake struck, captured live on turkish tv. amid the inky darkness, among ruined buildings, screams rang out as more than 400 rescue teams rushed to help survivors. dozens of aftershocks followed the main tremor, which was also felt in neighbouring syria, lebanon and iran.

the region, 550 kilometres east of the capital ankara, is remote and sparsely populated so the true extent of the damage and fatalities could be slow to emerge. turkey lies on major fault lines and is prone to frequent earthquakes — around 17,000 people died in a massive quake in 1999. gareth barlow, bbc news. democratic prosecutors in the us senate have finished setting out their case against president trump in his impeachment trial, arguing he abused his power and obstructed congress. mr trump denies any wrongdoing and describes the impeachment as a hoax. his legal team will open defence arguments later on saturday. chris buckler reports from washington. after three days inside the senate, the democrats concluded their long and detailed argument that donald trump abused the power of his position with a plea. they told the senators, who act as jurors in this

deeply political trial, that it wasn't about allegiances or their personal view of the president, it was about his actions in office. i implore you, give america a fair trial, give america a fair trial. she is worth it. thank you. every minute of this trial has been covered on america's news networks, although president trump is said to be concerned that his defence is beginning on a saturday, what he calls a death valley for tv ratings. his lawyers will also have three days to rebut the democrats' claims that mr trump tried to force the ukrainian president to launch investigations into his political opponents, and they will begin their arguments amid claims of new recordings that could be damaging to their client. we are going to put on, i believe, without question, a compelling case.

as i said, we have two goals. we are going to refute the allegations that they have made and we are going to put on an affirmative case as well. mr trump's lawyers will make their case in congress but, with a presidential election approaching, they will be talking to the american public as much as the senators inside the chamber. members of the president's legal team clearly believe that the best form of defence is attack, and the democrats are in their sights. the headlines on bbc news... china's president, xijinping, has chaired a meeting to discuss emergency measures aimed at restricting the spread of the coronavirus — which has already killed more than a0 people and infected over 1000 more. a charity offering mental health support to military veterans says it can't take on new cases because of a funding crisis.

at least 21 people have been killed and more than one thousand injured in a powerful earthquake in eastern turkey. sport, and a full round—up from the bbc sport centre. it's been an entertaining day of cricket so far injohannesburg where england have been bowled out by south africa in the first innings of the final test. england were wobbling after losing 3 quick wickets in the morning session but some record breaking hitting at the end took them to exactly 400. katie shanahan reports. a slight delay to the start of play, but with the outfield drying and the camera clean, we were ready to go. although it was only a 45—minute wait, 0llie pope started making up for lost time. and it wasn't long before he had his third 50 of the series. just 22, but already looking a key part of this team. at the other end, the england captain was also going the aggressive route. he would soon have his half century too. joe root‘s 47th in test match cricket. but the thing about test match cricket is that it can change quickly. a nick off the bat and a hit to the wicket.

pope's face says it all. as the sun arrived, so did the south african chances. this one missed by faf du plessis... 0oh, it's down! he had it, he had it. ..this one wasn't. anrich nortje, with the scalp of the england captain. and he was at it again the very next ball. sam curran gone for a duck and south african tails up. whenjos when jos buttler‘s whenjos buttler‘s shot when jos buttler‘s shot took flight, south africa had another, and england look to be in trouble. their tailand england look to be in trouble. their tail and had their england look to be in trouble. their tailand had theirfun, england look to be in trouble. their tail and had theirfun, mark wood and stuart broad adding plenty of runs, but they went for one big shock to many. that's gone up in the air, and dawid malan takes the catch. enigmatic australian nick kyrgios has setup a fourth round meeting with rafa nadal at the australian open after an epic five—setter this morning in melbourne. with news on their matches and a host of seeds falling

in the women's draw — here'sjohn watson. it is never straightforward with nick kyrgios. always one to put on a show, and he certainly did that to the crowds who stayed behind to see him reach the last 16 at this year's australian open. he took the first two sets against karen khachanov of russia but dropped the next two, as the match went to a fifth and deciding set. settled on a tie—break once again, which nick kyrgios came out on top of and, with each win here at melbourne park, he further endeared himself to the australian public, with whom he hasn't always had the easiest relationship. he goes on to face rafa nadal in the last 16, a fascinating matchup. it's a lwa ys last 16, a fascinating matchup. it's always been something of a frosty relationship between the pair. rafa nadal coming through his match in straight sets. a warning to nick kyrgios, straight sets. a warning to nick kyrg ios, rafa straight sets. a warning to nick kyrgios, rafa nadal says that is the best match he's played so far in this year's tournament. three of the top five seeds also went out today,

karolina pliskova, the second seat was one of them. she was beaten. garbine muguruza progresses at the expense of elina svitolina, and belinda bencic, the number six seed, is also out. it was a day of upsets in the women's draw, just as we saw u psets in the women's draw, just as we saw upsets yesterday in the shape of naomi 0saka upsets yesterday in the shape of naomi osaka and serena williams going out, as the 15—year—old coco gauff marches on. as things open up in the women's draw, you perhaps get the feeling that the winds of change are blowing through melbourne park this year. it's fa cup fourth round weekend with the first of 10 ties today at griffin park as brentford from the championship host leicester city. it took the premier league sidejust four minutes to take the lead when kelechi ihaenacho scored from close range. these are live pictures from west london with about 30 minutes played. leicester are still leading 1—0. you can watch it right now on bbc one and the bbc

sport website and app. and on the iplayer and online — women's fa cup action with the manchester derby. city are the defending champions. they are leading 1—0, abbie mcmanus gifting alan whiteley opener. you can watch that on the red button. that's all for now. plenty more throughout the afternoon. football is too dependent on money from gambling sponsorships, according to the sports minister, nigel adams. his warning comes amid mounting scrutiny of the industry after a deal was struck for some fa cup games to be shown exclusively on betting websites. here's our sports editor, dan roan. the last round of the fa cup was overshadowed by an outcry over a deal that meant some matches were only shown live on bookmakers‘ websites. there‘s since been a climb—down, but the controversy has reignited concern at how much betting companies use football to advertise. and having committed to reviewing gambling laws,

the government says it now wants to see change. there is way too much dependency within football on gambling, for the sponsorship. that‘s plain to see. we have to look at this very, very carefully because problem gambling, you know, addictive gambling leads to serious social problems. and i am sure the football authorities are aware of that but they do need to look at different sources of income. meanwhile, the government has announced the paralympics have been added to the crown jewels list of protected sports events that must be shown on free to air television coverage. it‘s absolutely essential that the paralympics have parity with the olympics. and if you look at the viewing figures over the years at successive games and how interested people are in the paralympic games, it‘s absolutely worth ensuring we level up. sports like para table tennis have enjoyed free to air coverage of the paralympics on channel 4

since london 2012, but terrestrial tv coverage is now guaranteed. my family are so supportive, family and friends are very supportive and a lot of them are coming out to tokyo. but in the future if they can't, if someone can't afford it or something, it's really nice knowing that they'll actually still be able to watch me back at home. this is the first change to the listed events in 20 years and there may be more to come. the government also now considering adding women‘s events like the world cup and the fa cup final in a sign of their growing popularity. dan roan, bbc news. last year, nearly seven million of us used ‘buy now, pay later‘ companies to help spread the cost of online purchases for clothing and shoes. firms like klarna and clearpay allow people to delay payment, or split the cost over a number of months, but debt charities are warning that people aren‘t being given enough information about hidden fees. 0ur consumer affairs correspondent, colletta smith, has more.

checking out, but paying nothing. millions of us are now opting to spread the pain of a purchase. some of the biggest online stores now give a choice to delay payment for an extra few weeks — no extra fees, and with next to no checks. unsurprisingly, it‘s a popular click with shoppers. so, let‘s get shopping. i do think this scheme is great, because you could get stuck for money and think, oh, but, i really want this for an event that‘s coming up, but i know i‘m going to get paid at the end of the month, and i‘ve got enough money to stretch. it's making us feel like we're getting more of a deal, and it's bringing them more money. if you're sensible, and you're responsible, and you can keep up with your finances, then why not? we found out that payments through the biggest three companies have nearly doubled over the last year. new zealand firm laybuy have seen a big demand from shops to get the option added to their online checkout. for the retailer, they are seeing an average order value uplift. people are spending more, then, because they can spread the payments? the average order values

are significantly higher as a result of paying by laybuy, yes. most of these companies have been operating for a few extra years down under, so the australian regulator has published this big review. and they found that 60% of customers are under 3a, and that some customers can become financially overcommitted because of it. the financial conduct authority here have told me they don‘t regulate any firms not charging interest, but they are monitoring the markets. debt charities are already concerned customers aren‘t being given enough information. we want to ensure that the people who are using these products know the terms and conditions they are signing up to. if you don‘t know when the payment terms are going to kick in, or what charges or fees are going to be associated with it, you can‘t be making a wise choice. not keeping up with repayments can damage your credit rating, and with customer numbers growing so quickly, it‘s a problem that could increase. colletta smith, bbc news.

trading standards is warning home owners that they could be at risk of losing large amounts of money if they sell their properties using so—called quick sale estate agents. the organisation says it‘s seen dozens of examples of people being exploited and losing tens of thousands of pounds from the market value of their homes. radio 4‘s money box reporter, daniel whitworth, has been explaining what‘s been happening. they differ from traditional high street estate agents, which normally take much longer to sell your house, four, six, eight weeks, longer, so the big selling point for these quick—sale estate agents is, we will sell it quickly. trading standards is concerned because, if you are a customer, by definition you need a quick sale, you need the money. you might be going through a divorce, your business might have trouble, either way, you need the money from your house. if you are using one of these quick—sale estate agents, trading standards is concerned that some rogue companies might exploit that desperation and might basically

hit people for tens of thousands of pounds from their homes. in terms of making them cut the price? yes, because quick sale estate agents, like any estate agencies, only make their money when you sell your home. if they say, we can lower this by 20,000 or30,000, they are not bothered about that as long as they get the sale. that‘s the accusation. the danger is, if you are the homeowner, you don‘t necessarily want that to happen but, if you are desperate for a sale, you need the money, so you might do things you are not totally behind. is it not obvious, if you need to sell your house quickly, the only way to do that is to cut the price, and that is a calculation you have to make? 100%, and in many cases these quick sale estate agents provide a service, nothing wrong or illegal about that, and it works for many people. i think trading standards is worried about some of the rogue

elements within this part of the estate agent industry. we have spoken to several case studies who have had the offer price of their homes lowered without their permission. not only is that illegal, that‘s a potential breach of consumer rights legislation, but it is also, one lady we spoke to, marianne, agreed an offer price for £250,000 for a three—bed semi. the company she used dropped that to 230,000 without her permission. potentially, that is £20,000 and, if somebody looks at the house and says, hold on, it is 230,000, why are you advertising it at 250? why have you increased it back to the normal price of 250? she could have lost £20,000. what advice is out there? what are trading standards saying people should be doing? never be rushed into a deal. always go into these things with your eyes open, and if you can

get independent legal advice. we are getting reports that a number of countries, possibly including france, russia and the us, are looking at evacuating their citizens out of wuhan in china because of the coronavirus. those reports coming in on some of the news agencies. we will update you very soon on more on what is going on, because there is international concern, and a lot of action going on in china to try and limit the spread. now it‘s time for a look at the weather with ben rich. it's it‘s quite cold in the studio. is it freezing outside? that‘ll be the air conditioning! it is similar here. it‘s chilly out there, certainly cloudy, and it will turn colder through the second half of the weekend because, after this grey and dull weather, things are about to change. a few of us getting some sunshine yesterday, but most of us are some sunshine yesterday, but most of us are stuck under this low cloud, which is this haze of grey on the

chart. this bright white cloud will bring the change, and that colder airlies bring the change, and that colder air lies out here in the atlantic at the moment. it is heading our way. through the rest of this afternoon, quite a lot of clout around, producing the odd spot of drizzle, some mist and hill blog, a few showers in the south—west, and that band of cloud in the atlantic starting to make inroads across north—west scotland, bringing some rain, and that rain will start to stagger its way eastwards this evening at overnight. ahead of that, still a lot of cloud, some spots of drizzle, misty and murky, and temperatures not dropping too far tonight, partly because the breeze will be strengthening. for tomorrow, it‘s all about this weather front, that and i showed you. it will be working its way east, bringing out bits of rain, and behind it we get that colder air. sunday looks like this, this band of rain staggering its way east. just about all of us will see rain for part of the day, but probably not getting into east

anglia or the south—east until quite late. behind the rain band, more sunshine than we have had lately, but some showers, which will be wintry even over quite modest hills in scotland. quite a windy day, and increasingly cold. it is one of those days where temperatures will come down through the day, particularly in western scotland and northern ireland, five or 6 degrees by the end of the afternoon for the that rain eventually gets to the south—east, and from the west we bring ina south—east, and from the west we bring in a band of showers, and that could give us some snow in northern ireland, scotland and northern england, even at low levels, and also some ice for monday morning, so bear that in also some ice for monday morning, so bearthat in mind also some ice for monday morning, so bear that in mind if you have travel plans. monday, sunshine and showers, but we enter that cold air, so some of the shires across high ground in the north will continue to be wintry, with quite a lot of snow piling up on the hills of western scotland, and temperatures down into single digits, particularly chilly in scotland and northern ireland. deeper into the week, it stays

chilly for a while but,
