there was a lot of fog at the time but the cause of the crash isn't yet known. 45 years of living, i have not felt this much grief and love for one man that has passed. for a city, my city, he was an idol, he was an icon. for me, man, just watching his videos, it was more than basketball. it was just the mentality to get through life and he's got me through so many struggles in my life and it's one of the hardest losses i've ever dealt with and i never even met the man. kobe bryant and his daughter had been travelling to a sports academy co—founded by the player two years ago. 13—year—old gianna bryant had been planning to play in a basketball game with her father acting as coach. according to us media reports, another player and parent were also on the helicopter. kobe brya nt‘s accomplishments in basketball are legendary. five nba championships, the 2008 nba most valuable player and two olympic

only residents can go into that neighbourhood. but it is going to ta ke neighbourhood. but it is going to take some time and the lapd flights we re take some time and the lapd flights were grounded today and it is not clear if that was anything to do with the helicopter. you obviously cover the sport of basketball, that is yourjob and you, as so many others must be reflecting on today, about the enormous legacy of kobe bryant? absolutely. he meant a lot to the city and sometimes a complicated legacy here in los angeles. he came here when he was 17 yea rs old angeles. he came here when he was 17 years old and people felt he grew up with them. he won five championships here and that means a lot to the lakers. a here and that means a lot to the la kers. a lot here and that means a lot to the lakers. a lot

of my colleagues have been writing about how he set the definition for what success is in los angeles. it is notjust playing well, it is winning championships. and also with some of his later work, i suppose reset the definition of success in other ways? yes, that was one thing that came through from a lot of his former team—mates and the people who have talked about him today. they were still looking forward to see what he did with the rest of his life. he had tried to stay away from basketball for a while. 0ne stay away from basketball for a while. one of the biggest tragedies of what happened today, he lost his daughter gianna and she is what sort of drew him back into basketball. she loved the sport so much, he used to bring her to lakers games. he didn't go to many games last year and for the first couple of

years after he retired, but all of a sudden he started coming and bringing her. it is because of her love of the game and he saw a lot of himself in her and as we know, she was on the flight with him today. himself in her and as we know, she was on the flight with him todaym is very sad for all of those fans and a lot of the fans not confined to the world of basketball. those fa ns to the world of basketball. those fans are stretched across every area of life? it is. because of the things he did after he retired, even during his playing career, he was interested in everything. he was interested in everything. he was interested in everything. he was interested in what made people great at what they did. while he was playing basketball, he was very focused on his basketball goals. but after he got out of basketball, he was writing and trying to learn about storytelling and the authors he reached out to and

worked with to try to learn about that. he won an 0scar a couple of years ago. so he did touch a lot of different walks of life. thank you so much for joining us from la, as you and your city and all of us adjust to news of the death of kobe bryant in that helicopter accident yesterday. now, turning to the news. china is stepping up its efforts to contain the outbreak of the new coronavirus. half a—million medical staff have been mobilised in hubei, the province where it was first identified. the chinese new year holiday has also been extended by three days, in an attempt to contain the virus. more than 80 people have died from the respiratory infection and more than 400 other people are critically ill. there's been no let up in the rate of infections with more than 750 new cases

reported in the last day alone. it comes as a second brand new hospital, specially for the treatment of people with coronavirus, is under construction in the chinese city of wuhan. it will have 1300 beds and is expected to be completed in weeks' time. another facility which is also dedicated to treating the virus will be finished on monday. here, more than 50 people have now been tested for coronavirus — all the tests have come back negative. the government says the risk to the public remains low but said there was a "fair chance" the virus would reach the uk. there are thought to be up to 300 britons stuck in and around wuhan the city at the centre of the outbreak — the foreign office says they are working on a plan to help them leave. two british teachers there say all transport has been stopped and they're "pretty much stuck". they haven't left their apartment for five days and they've received little support from the british embassy. so we have contacted the embassy, we have e—mailed them

and tried to ring them. we got a really useless automated e—mail response back from the embassy. trying to ring the embassy and trying to get in touch with the home office, but they were shut over the weekend. so we are going to try and bring them as soon as they open. because the time differences difficult, trying to contact authorities back home as well. so yeah, we've really struggled to try and contact the authorities. 0ur china correspondent robin brantjoins us now from shaghai with the latest. let's pick up on the issue of british citizens trying to get out. what is the foreign office doing for them? there is talk that dominic raab at the foreign office and other officials are trying to do what other officials are trying to do, evacuate from the city any brits who

feel an urgent desire to get out. i think the issue is two fold. there are some reports the beijing authorities, the chinese government authorities, the chinese government authorities are not being as cooperative with the british as they are with the americans. the other issue, as that woman there you just heard from touches on, there are already severe restrictions in place in wuhan preventing people from moving around. the vast majority of people there subjective that our chinese citizens who live and work in wuhan. the british people are also subject to that. even if the uk government was to arrange some kind of plane or transport out, it is doubtful, it would appear at the moment, that some of those brits who wa nt to moment, that some of those brits who want to be on board can get to the airport anyway. i suppose those issues should apply equally to nationals of whatever country. turning to another aspect of the story, the world health organization meeting in beijing. what is expected to come of that? i think this is

two fold, it is a show of support by the well‘s most senior health official and also i think there is a genuine desire to bring any expertise that's possible from around the globe to assist the chinese. as far as the who is concerned it is a chinese national emergency but it remains at the moment, a domestic chinese national emergency. the who does not think it has become a global issue. there are two elements to seeing that visit today. the other significant visit by a prominent person is the premier, the second most important politician in this country has gone to wuhan today. we have seen pictures and video published of him meeting medical professionals, going to a supermarket and talking to people. we have seen him wearing a mask over his nose and also wearing blue surgical overalls as well. the

message is being sent domestically, almost the most important politician in the country is at the front line. there has been some criticism recently that he had been to surrounding areas, but now we have him very much on the front line. although, why didn't they send shi jingling? although, why didn't they send shi jingling? there is nothing in the past when it comes to national disasters, that it is not the premier who goes. but it is also the politics of this. who do you decide to put their in charge of the new task group at the top of the chinese government in terms of dealing with this outbreak and it mayjust be that the premier doesn't want to associate himself directly with it which is why his number two, and more personable man, a more personable politician, maybe he is

the man who has gone to wuhan and he is meeting the supermarkets, encouraging the people of wuhan to build the hospital as quick as they can. robin brant, thank you very much. let's return to our top story, the death of the bastketball star kobe bryant, we can talk now to michelle medina from cbs news, who is in calabasas in california, near the scene of the helicopter crash, there's a lot of police in the area, what have they been saying? right now, they are remaining very tight—lipped. there were two news conferences that were scheduled yesterday where we got very little information. but i can tell you, investigators with the ntsb will be at the scene later this morning. fans here and around the world are mourning the loss of a lakers

legend. this all started yesterday when the helicopter went down at around ten o'clock local time. one thing investigators will be looking closely at, the weather conditions. one factor in this, there was fog yesterday. they will be looking into that to see if that was one of the causes of this crash. as for those fans, when we were driving in this particular location, you saw fans out in theirjerseys, in their gear. so many people still struggling to come to grips with the loss of kobe bryant, a man who did so much for the game of basketball, the sport. this really hits home for the city of los angeles and around the world. obviously, the world and the city of la trying to come to terms with this sudden and tragic accident. what do we expect to take place on monday later when la wakes up. i know there isa later when la wakes up. i know there is a makeshift shrine and flowers are beginning to arrive?

absolutely. just over my shoulder there is a small memorial, there are flowers, candles and a fan just wants to do anything, do something for a man who just did so much for this city. we are getting word there will be a number of prayer services and one will be later this morning taking place. it is still early. again, it has been less than 2a hours, so a lot of fans still in denial on trying to process exactly what happened. exactly, thank you for joining us. survivors of the holocaust are gathering at the former concentration camp at auschwitz in poland, to mark the 75th anniversary of its liberation more than six millionjewish people were systematically murdered during the second world war — over a million of them died at auschwitz. this morning there was a wreath—laying ceremony

by survivors at the "execution wall" where thousands — mostly political prisoners — were killed. jenny hill spoke to survivors as they prepared to mark the anniversary. what they endured is difficult to describe, harder still to imagine. the survivors of auschwitz preparing last night to commemorate the anniversay of its liberation. i heard their crying and screaming and those screams, stay with me all the way to this day. it is 75 years since russian soldiers flung open the gates of auschwitz and the world recoiled in horror. the nazis killed more than a million people here. many systematically gassed to death in purpose—built chambers as part of a plan to wipe out europe'sjewish population. those who survived had been starved, terrorised, tortured.

i was nine years old when i was liberated... miriam, just a child at the time, a victim of the camps notoriously sadistic doctor, josef megele. i was with the children that mengele was killing. he did experiments on me too but i was just lucky, i lived. and then, an important reunion. this is miriam. right here. and i'm right on the top. today, they will tell their tales again, in a new age of rising anti—semitism they hope their voices carry. could it really have happened? jenny hill, bbc news, poland adam easton is there

now. can you run us through what is happening later today? as you have been saying, there was a wreath laying at the wall of death and then there will be a solemn ceremony at auschwitz back where the nazis carried out their systematic killing of europe's jewish carried out their systematic killing of europe'sjewish people. there will be a tent over the main gate tower where we will hear the survivors tell their stories of their time survivors tell their stories of theirtime in survivors tell their stories of their time in the camp and there will be an address from world leaders, there will be leaders from 50 countries and we will have ecumenical prayers and finally there will be some former listeners who will be some former listeners who will walk bearing candles to the monument in auschwitz to another 1.1 million people who were murdered here. most of them werejewish people, but oh

also polish people. we will have extensive coverage of that over the day. the irish taoiseach, leo varadkar has questioned the timetable set by borisjohnson to secure a trade deal with the rest of the eu by the end of the year. the uk will leave the eu at 11:00pm on friday night and in an interview with the bbc, mrvaradkarsaid the eu will have the upper hand in the upcoming brexit trade negotiations. our assistant political editor, norman smithjoins us now. not n ot exa ctly not exactly what downing street want to hear? no, leo varadkar flexing his muscles saying, in effect the timescale set up by borisjohnson to be done and

dusted by the end of this year, difficult to meet. also questioning the boris johnson this year, difficult to meet. also questioning the borisjohnson cake and eat it strategy from diverging from some parts of eu regulations but at the same time avoiding ta riffs but at the same time avoiding tariffs and quotas. perhaps its most stark message is the sense that he believed politicians in britain have underestimated the eu and ireland in particular, and suggesting that when it comes to the negotiations, actually the eu has a lot more clout than the uk. i think the european union is a union of 27 member states and the uk is only one country. we have a population and a market of 450 million people. in the uk it is about 60. if these were two teams up against each other playing football, who do you think has the stronger team, so long as we are united. the viewing government is that this arm flexing is

just a preliminary warm upfor arm flexing is just a preliminary warm up for the negotiations. they argue that it is in the eu's interest, as much as the uk's interest, as much as the uk's interest to have a trade deal because they export more to us than we do to them. norman, moving to a different topic in the news this morning. the financial times talking confidently about a decision having been taken, very soon to be announced on 4—way in the uk's five g network? it is one of the big decisions coming up to boris johnson. what is it going to do about the five g network, what is it going to do about h s two, and heathrow, there are these big decisions coming at him and we expect a decision on this one the national security council meets. at the moment it is very hard to call which way borisjohnson will go. he has talked about ensuring

that the whole of the uk has fast broadband and that would indicate that he wa nts to and that would indicate that he wants to go ahead with the huawei decision. he is under massive pressure from the united states not to give the go—ahead, because of what they see as security concerns. which is why the financial times reporting, and it is an interesting idea, that may be a halfway house would be an interesting thing to give huawei the go—ahead for non—core parts of the network and put a cap on things and that will encourage other telecom companies to enter the market. we shall see, thank you for explaining that to us. scientists are today unveiling a drug which may help improve the symptoms of young people living with autism. the medicine is usually prescribed to treat oedema — the build—up of fluid in the body. but research trials have found it to be effective at improving social skills of young children with autism. professor barbara sa hakian from the university of cambridge was part of the trial team.

thank you for coming in, how did you discover this, that this could be used in a different context?m discover this, that this could be used in a different context? it was found that in animal studies, we could see that it actually was beneficial in terms of neurodevelopment, because obviously autism is a neurodevelopment disorder. there were some preliminary evidence that was helpful in autism, but these were much older children. we have used children three to six years of age. it is quite a small study, but you are confident about the results? one of the novel aspects of it is we we re of the novel aspects of it is we were able to noninvasively measure the chemicals in the brain that were changing with the drug treatment. how did you do that? it is complicated but basically it is done through putting children in a

scanner through putting children in a scanner and you through putting children in a scanner and you can through putting children in a scanner and you can get the mrsa signalfor the different scanner and you can get the mrsa signal for the different neuro transmitters. what we were able to do is link the changes, the decrease in the autistic symptoms and the beneficial effects, like the social, increases in social sentiments, the eye co nta ct, increases in social sentiments, the eye contact, smiling and all that sort of thing, with the actual changes in the brain chemicals. this was a project you worked on with researchers in china, where the children chinese? the children were chinese, and you don't have quite so many specialised resources for treating children's behavioural mechanisms. i should say these children were also moderate to severe in terms of their symptoms. the good thing there is, many people come in from rural areas and you can give these treatments because they are quite safe, so they can have these treatments, even though they are not in a specialist centre. said the parents who may be watching, who may, themselves

have children on the spectrum with the disorder, what hope can you give them this will be usable and of benefit to their children? we are doing a larger scale trial to make sure it is affected. but we know it is safe and in these very young children, it is the best possibility for working because it starts so early in young children, so if you want to boost it, you have to get in there early. i don't think it would be as effective if you are dealing with older children, so it is important to be used early on. you can imagine some parents want to be on this larger scale trial, but is this larger scale trial, but is this larger scale trial happening in china? yes, it will be happening in china? yes, it will be happening in china because it has the autism specialist centre there and they can recruit number so quickly. for pa rents recruit number so quickly. for parents who want their children to be treated with this as soon as

possible, when do you think it will come on the market here?|j possible, when do you think it will come on the market here? i think it will be very soon because we have already shown it is safe so we just need a bigger chance to show it is really effective. it is very inexpensive so i think it will be available, may be in the next five yea rs. available, may be in the next five years. professor, thank you for coming in and explaining. in a moment the weather but first let's here's programme at ten. 18 months ago, one of our reporters went undercover and discovered landlords are offering rent for sex. i got landlords are offering rent for sex. igota landlords are offering rent for sex. i got a text message of someone saying are you still looking for somewhere to live and then they kind of set, i was up for living rent free. so i said, how is it rent—free? free. so i said, how is it re nt—free ? they free. so i said, how is it rent—free? they said they wanted some discreet fun on the

ones to leave high school and come to the nba and do so well, dominating the game and becoming one of the best scorers that the los angeles lakers has ever seen. fellow stars from the sports world have been paying emotional tributes to kobe. former long—time lakers team—mate shaquille o'neal said he was more than an athlete, he was afamily man. while magicjohnson tweeted, "we shared so many special conversations about life and basketball". and england and manchester city footballer raheem sterling called him a legend. there were a number of matches in the nba on sunday. players staged their own tributes, including one match where the players didn't engage for 24 seconds — that was bryant's shirt number. the houston rockets and denver nuggets held a minute's silence before their match.

the next game for the los angeles lakers is due to be at home against city rivals la clippers tomorrow. i just don't have a lot to say. the news is just devastating to everybody who knew him, knew him a long time. sorry, i don't have a lot to say. i have to go talk to a team before a game and tell them to play a game. away from that terribly sad news about kobe bryant, the quarterfinal line—up at the australian open is nearly complete. rafael nadal and nick kyrgios are i naction right now. john watson is there for us. john, kyrgios paid his own tribute to kobe bryant before the match. yes, he did. he came out onto the arena wearing a kobe bryant la la kers arena wearing a kobe bryant la

lakers jersey. we arena wearing a kobe bryant la la kers jersey. we know arena wearing a kobe bryant la lakersjersey. we know that arena wearing a kobe bryant la lakers jersey. we know that nick is a huge fan. another democrat other tennis players were paying tribute. sta n tennis players were paying tribute. stan wawrinka and novak chuck of itch, the defending champion, posting pictures on social media. nick kyrgios was extremely emotional. it is a much leading the billing today, raffle and a dowel against nick kyrgios. two characters poles apart the hard—working and determined rafa up against the hard—working determined rafa up against the ha rd—working and combustible determined rafa up against the hard—working and combustible nick kyrgios. sometimes it undermines his talent. has alluded to that. as we

know, nick kyrgios has responded saying that rafa nadal is super salty, suggesting he can be a little bit off, rafa nadal. if you beat him, he seems to be ok. if you lose against him, in the words of nick kyrgios. it is an intriguing contest. nick kyrgios hasjust kyrgios. it is an intriguing contest. nick kyrgios has just hit back to take the second set 6—3. 1-1. as back to take the second set 6—3. 1—1. as we know, rafa nadal a beaten finalist last year, hoping to add to that one solitary australian open title he has to be his name, but how the australian cloud would love to see nick kyrgiosjoining ashleigh barty in the finals. you are even ahead of the pictures we have coming into the building and satellite. and how big a surprise is it to see stan warinka beat daniil medvedev? a huge surprise when you consider that stan wawrinka, despite being a

she was missing, it was a huge news story at the time. that was a huge turning point in the phone hacking story, turning it from a story about celebrities' privacy to a full—blown national scandal. there was a wave of revulsion and rupert murdoch shut down the news of the world that had been going for 168 years. it cost him something like £240 million. then prime minster david cameron commissioned the levenson enquiry pa rt commissioned the levenson enquiry part one into the culture, practices and practices of the press. the court papers that have been seen by the website byline investigate and also by the bbc raised the possibility that it wasn't just a murdoch paper, that news of the world, that targeted milly dowler. pa rt world, that targeted milly dowler. part of this action brought by 71 celebrities, public figures, including prince harry, david walliams, and sports people and celebrities. they allege that the sunday people, that is a mirror group title, in

2002 paid and hired private investigation company to investigate milly dowler and her family. as i said, the time that she went missing. it is alleged that her family were put under surveillance and that star base were involved in phone hacking and other unlawful activities. the claimants point to an invoice from star base at the time that say was a unusually large amount of money. they point to an article in the sunday people that was published ten days disappeared to support the allegation that the family were targeted. it raises the possibility, and it isjust a possibility, and it isjust a possibility because these are allegations in a civil case, that milly dowler‘s phone was also hacked by the sunday people. as i say, it is just by the sunday people. as i say, it isjust a by the sunday people. as i say, it is just a possibility. by the sunday people. as i say, it isjust a possibility. we by the sunday people. as i say, it is just a possibility. we are waiting for the formal defence and the current publishers of the sunday people have not commented

on the allegations. have the dowler family commented? they have not but i understand they are aware of these allegations. no public comment from them. what is likely to be... i mean, you talk about the huge national scandal that it was at the time. many years have passed. where do we stand with all of this in general now? well, the civil litigation, phone hacking litigation, phone hacking litigation, goes on and on and on and on. news uk are estimated to have paid out something like £450 million. that is the murdoch stable, the mirror group have already paid apps in the late £75 million and rising. in 2015 there was a ruling in the high court that it was clear that phone hacking at the three mirror titles was widespread and frequent for a decade. campaigners say, look, this isn't the puppet forum, a civil case, for digging for

this sort of information. this should be done either through a police investigation, but there doesn't seem to be any sign of that, or through that letter sent enquiry pa rt or through that letter sent enquiry part two, which the covenant has said will not happen. —— levenson enquiry. this ongoing civil litigation is revealing some information as it progresses. clive, thank you. foreign secretary dominic raab will meet the family of harry dunn today, ahead of the us secretary of state's visit to the uk. the 19—year—old was killed when his motorbike crashed into a car allegedly driven on the wrong side of a northamptonshire road by the wife of a us diplomat. the home office submitted an extradition request for anne sacoolas which was formally rejected by the us last week. harry dunn's parents say they are confident today's talks with mr raab will be "constructive and productive". at least three rockets have struck the us embassy in the iraqi capital, baghdad. the facility's dining hall was hit and it's reported that at least three people were wounded. no group has claimed responsibility but, in a statement,
