hello, i'm lewis vaughanjones, this is outside source. an international court — convicts a member of the militant group hezbollah — of assassinating the lebanese prime minister, rafik hariri, 15 years ago. mr hariri's son gave this reaction. the tribunal came out with a result that is satisfying. we accept it. hello, i'm lewis vaughanjones, this is 0utside source. an international court — convicts a member of the militant group hezbollah — and a coup attempt by soldiers and of assassinating the lebanese prime minister, rafik hariri, 15 years ago. molly. his son has been speaking to the bbc. in the uk there's a scramble for university places for students, after the government's u—turn on a level grades. too many lebanese, he was the father

and the tiny elephant shrew, a mammal thought to be extinct, ofa too many lebanese, he was the father now rediscovered, in east africa of a nation. it was very clear that his dream did not become a reality. in mali the president and prime minister have been arrested — in an apparent coup attempt, by soldiers. france says — it'll make face masks compulsory — welcome. in shared offices, from the beginning of september, to stop the spread of coronavirus. we're going to start with that court decision and the tiny elephant shrew, on the assassination of lebanon's a mammal thought to be extinct, former prime minister, rafik hariri in 2005. now rediscovered, in east africa. the un—backed court has convicted a hezbollah member of involvement in the killing. three others suspects have been acquitted. here'sjudge david re delivering his verdict in the netherlands. the trial chamber is therefore satisfied beyond a reasonable doubt that mr ayyash possessed the requisite knowledge that the welcome. explosive device was liable time now for our global to create a public danger. coronavirus update. the world health organization chief has sent a letter to all member that is also the only states asking them to join conclusion that is reasonably available multilateral vaccine efforts. from the evidence. have a listen. the same evidence establishes beyond reasonable doubt his knowledge and his intention

to murder mr hariri with explosive sharing finance supplies tragically materials. the trial chamber therefore and globally is in each countries find mrs ayyash guilty national interest. no one is safe beyond reasonable doubt as a co—perpetrator of the intentional homicide of mr rafiq hariri. until everyone is safe. as new diagnostics, medicines and vaccines come through the pipeline, it is rafik hariri's death was a watershed moment for lebanon. critical that countries do not it led to rival alliances that shape politics today. before we go any further — repeat the same mistakes. we need to lets re—cap on the attack in 2005 with our middle east editorjeremy bowen. prevent vaccine nationalism. but already countries are acting individually to secure these for their own citizens. 0n the 14th of february 2005, a for example the australian government said today it's signed massive bomb blew up the motorcade a deal with the company astrazeneca, who are developing a vaccine with oxford university in the uk. of rafik hariri, who was campaigning the prime minister said, "the oxford vaccine is one for reelection. it killed rafik hariri in 21 others. 0ne for reelection. it killed rafik hariri in 21 others. one of the first to reach him was his the uk itself has also placed early orders for this vaccine, long—suffering bodyguard, who wants along with five others. that means it has a potential justice. to start with, i could not stockpile of 340 million doses.

the race to secure a vaccine for a single country tell if it was him from his face. i was evident as far back as march, when the german paper dee velt was reeling. some of the guys told reported that the trump me to check his face, his back or his head to see if it was him. but i administration had offered a german could only tell it was him from his medical company large sums wedding ring. at the funeral, his of money for exclusive access to a covid—19 vaccine. angela merkel later confirmed her government had seen off the attempt ‘early on. supporters are already accusing you can find a list of all vaccines currently syria's president. threatened for in development on the who‘s website. 138 of these are in the early stages of development. questioning syria's right to there are 29 vaccines dominate lebanon. rafik hariri chose in clinical trials — his words carefully when i asked that‘s when they are tested on humans. them who ran lebanon. assuring that six are in phase 3 trials — that‘s widespread testing on large numbers of people in different regions. them who ran lebanon. assuring that the security and stability, but in and today we heard that one of these — developed by the chinese firm political business, that is a course sinopharm — might be ready before the end of the year. here‘s the bbc‘s kerry allen. correction between syria and the lebanese. the f sinopharm has said that it is

expected by the end of the year to they have influence. the most have a vaccine for covid—19 on the market and ready to go. the chief of powerful force in lebanon they have influence. the most powerfulforce in lebanon has denied sinopharm has said that this vaccine the accusation that it's been carried out the assassination. is currently undergoing phase three perhaps in the orders of its allies trials in the uae and these are clinical trials, ones that are being syria and iran. its leader refused carried on humans. expected the to allow the arrest of the four vaccine will be very safe. so much in fact that he himself has actually indicted his brother men who been injected with doses of the otherwise would be in court to hear vaccine and said he has experienced the verdict. thejudge convicted salimjamil ayyash no side effects. it is a lot of of a terrorist act, assassination discussion in china about how and the murders of 21 other victims. affordable the vaccine is going to he was tried in absentia alongside be, because he has said it‘s going three other hezbollah members. to be under 1000 yuan, so hundred 44 all their whereabouts are unknown. us dollars, or £110. that‘s not as a fifh suspect — a hezbollah commander — was dropped from the indictment after he died in syria in 2016. expensive for it was her audience, however prosecutors but it may not be as affordable to a described him as "overall controller of the operation". lot of people in small communities in china, and there are some concerns about that. if he wants before if he wants the judge said the assassination was life returns to normal. ‘undoubtedly a political act'. this bbc article looks at some of the issues in rolling but he came to this conclusion. out a vaccine globally. "what we‘re pretty clear about is any initial vaccine demand is likely to outstrip supply,

so choices will need the trial chambers of the view that to be made." syria and his brother may have had motives to eliminate mr rafik hariri and some of the satellites. but and tightening lockdowns to control the virus case numbers there was no evidence that the his will have to continue. we‘ve seen that today in france, brother leadership had any which as you can see from this involvement in rafik hariri's murder graph, has seen the number of new cases increase and no direct evidence of syrian over the last few weeks. involvement in it. it‘s been announced that author and non resident scholar from next month, masks at the carnegie endowment will have to be worn at work. think tank, kim ghattas was quick here‘s lucy williamson. to point out. "verdict did not exonerate hezbollah leadership. the government has been expanding its precautions over the last few weeks and months. masts are now compulsory in shops and offices, it has given permission to local the prosecution's case authorities to make masks compulsory was centred around mobile phone records which they said showed in some crowded streets. there are hundreds of places across france the suspects were tracking mr hariri where masks are compulsory out in before his assassination. public, but there's another move however the evidence again. the government has been was entirely circumstantial — thinking about it for some time, the which was difficult to prove — work minister that unions today to as anna holligan explains. talk about it and when she came out

it was confirmed. she said the the way this was carried out was a government was planning to implement this policy from the end of august sophisticated, it was done in a way that kept the disparate parts when everyone gets back from holiday separate from each other. so they and kids are back to school, parents could not necessarily have known go back to work. that's the real about the plan. so, for example, the crunch time. she said this policy cove red crunch time. she said this policy purchase of this truck that was covered pretty much all shared loaded with explosives that was office spaces. notjust the open plan offices but anywhere were more bought and detonated by the suicide bomber on valentine's day 2005, the than one person is working, including core doors, changing recruitment of a 22—year—old man in rooms, meeting rooms. it's going to a mask to appear in this diversion bea rooms, meeting rooms. it's going to be a real change for many people at work. and also what is clear from video that was shared by the the government says, is the cost assessments allegedly on the day of benefits. europe‘s not the only his killing. all of these parts put region which is seeing a resurgence in the virus, having previously got together in thejudges it under control — his killing. all of these parts put together in the judges said actually, the only person who was we‘re also seeing that in asia. today the regional who officials proved beyond reasonable doubt was said: "what we are observing involved due to links between his personal mobile phone and a network of mobile phones that were involved. his own phone, and the phone part of this network was him. his own phone, and the phone part

of this network was him. the trial was held at a special un—backed court in light sen dum — a small town outside the hague. some of the victims‘ families as an example of that — were there to hear the verdict. you may recognise saad hariri— south korea is having to tighten rafik‘s son there. he served three terms social distancing measures as prime minister himself. after a spike in cases. and he spoke afterwards. many of these cases have been linked to churches. for the first time, i can say here‘s its prime minister. in lebanon, in the political assassination of the former prime minister orthe president, we had like many presidents and many former translation: 12 high-risk facilities including nightclubs, karaoke, but prime ministers were killed either phase and internet cafes, and indoor public facilities will be suspended. and we never had any... for churches in the seoul truth of what happened. metropolitan area, only online services are allowed and other gatherings and activities are i think today... prohibited. if we can make it back i mean everybody's expectation was much higher than what came out. but i believe that the tribunal control now we will consider raising the social distancing to level three. and that would have a large came out with a result impact on our economy and people‘s that is satisfying. livelihoods. in other parts of the world we accept it. the virus has never quite been brought under control. cases in the americas region have as well as saying he was now reached almost 11.5 million satisfied, saad hariri also and more than 400,000 people have hit out at hezbollah — died, the world health

organization says. saying they must assume the biggest drivers responsibility of his are the united states and brazil. father's killing. brazil has been one of the countries worst he said it was "clear hit by the pandemic, with nearly 3.5 million cases that the network responsible and more than 100,000 deaths. katy watson‘s been speaking to is from its ranks." and he added "we will not rest until the vice president of the country. the punishment is carried out." so — two possibly conflicting messages. paul adams is in beirut — and helps put that of course we regret the deaths of into context for us. more than 100,000 brazilians, but the important thing to realise is that the organisation that was accused of involvement in the death of rafik hariri 15 years ago, even the government did everything that we could. we were successful in if one member of that organisation has not been found guilty, his brother has gone from being notjust adapting the curve of the pandemic a military force in the country, but with the catastrophe of our public to the dominant political force too. hospitals. because in the beginning everybody was afraid that we would you cannot rule or do anything in have people dying in the halls of this country economical politically our hospitals, and this did not without the cooperation of his brother. that means that if you are happen. we also had a lot of someone measures to mitigate the economic brother. that means that if you are someone who has served two terms as

prime minister and have another shot and social problems. i think we are in the future, frankly, you're going to have to make another deal with doing a good job. president ball his brother in the future. for organisation that you probably scenario has made it clear how he believe in your heart of hearts was felt about social distancing, pushed involved in the death of your back on the wearing of facemasks, he father. that's a pretty extra in a himself has had and so has the first situation for any politician to be lady. people feel the leadership in but it is a measure of what you just does not care. you have to understand the nature of the described as the complexity and brazilian people. brazilian people sometimes the byzantine nature of are not a very disciplined one. it's lebanese politics. impossible to come down and say ok, you have to do this and that. she blee marl art is a lebanese international lawyer. india is still reporting more he's called the verdict than 50,000 new cases a let down injustice. of covid—19 each day. here's why. and it‘s putting incredible it is clear that the presence of pressure on the country‘s syria had very strong motive because medical infrastructure. for example, hospital beds are in short supply. he had refused to submit to the in india, there is roughly only half a bed available for every 1,000 people. syrian diplomats. in this tribunal to 15 years hasn't found a few hours for comparison, in the united states there are 2.8 hospital beds to 15 years hasn't found a few hours to go question the person who was per thousand, while japan has around 13 hospital beds for every 1,000 people. murdering so strong, is a dereliction of duty. 15 years since rafik hariri's death — conditions in the eastern state and lebanon is very much a country of bihar are particularly

stark, with more than in crisis, on many fronts. 100,000 confirmed cases. here‘s dr kumar gaurav, to remind us, here's a top officials at one of the hospitals there. paul adams in beirut. almost literally two weeks ago to the minutes, which continues to overs ha d ow the minutes, which continues to overshadow everything here, plus the fa ct overshadow everything here, plus the fact that we are about to go into another coronavirus lockdown in the most of them are not very severely next couple of days, plus the fact that late last year, this country has been spiralling into an affected. most of them are in appalling economic crisis, combined quarantine. they are getting with political paralysis. the events that happen just over 15 years ago medicines. we are taking good care do seem to most people a little bit of them. if there is any problem we remote. in the uk tens of thousands advise them to get hospitalized. of students are scrambling for university places after a u—turn in some places though — by the government yesterday, the virus does seem to be on monday, allowed them under control, for now. higher grades at a—level. wuhan in china was the place with many courses already full, the first coronavirus some students remain unsure about their academic future. cases were diagnosed, and where the first big the government was forced to abandon lockdown was enforced. the computer modelling it had based exam results on, after an outcry when 40% of entries were downgraded. there‘s some flashing images coming up we should warn you —

wales and northern ireland also reversed their policies. bra nwen jeffreys reports. but have a look at this. this video was taken at the weekend, at a party at the maya beach water park. natasha is still looking you can see hundreds of people enjoying themselves — for a place to study medicine. but there‘s very little evidence of any social distancing, and it her hopes had been in tatters seems no—one is wearing a mask. and now results downgraded wuhan was in lockdown betweenjanuary and april — by computer have been replaced and apart from one brief outbreak, by top grades from her teachers. has been largely coronavirus i'm very pleased about the u—turn free ever since. the government has made one last thing to mention. a second major coronavirus because i feel more secure my future conspiracy theory video has just but it has been a stressful couple been launched online. of days because i thought i had its predecessor, called ‘plandemic‘, got into university. appeared at the beginning of may. good afternoon, you are through to clearing. despite efforts to remove it, users constantly re—uploaded the clip. now they‘ve released a follow up. and olga robinson from bbc monitoring‘s disinformation team has been watching it. calls to clearing the students checking their place is secure. the courses have been filling up at this university this is part two of the conspiracy is honouring every offer. the legal situation i do not theory video, what has it been think is entirely clear but my understanding is that if you were made an offer saying? yes, this the second and you've met that offer then universities would be obliged to adhere to it. instalment of the plandemic video,

in this film the various experts that is what we're doing at manchester met. i think it is more challenging suggest the coronavirus pandemic was if you have not had an offer but want to apply to clearing planned by a government and the on the basis of the teacher sat world health organisation, and the grades, i think that billionaires like bill gates. and situation is less certain. he says that students need they are trying to create this to weigh up their options. pandemic in order to push their vaccination agenda, and then talk to a school or college, talk to the universities but do potentially profit from a vaccine we really want students later on. and then the film is 75 to put their life on hold? they've been through a lot in the last few months. minutes long, so quite a lot of room today a promise from the un, iversities minister. for speculation. he repeated some of the misleading claims about the today, a promise from the universities minister. students that have taken a different course from the one banner eligible origin of the virus suggesting repeatedly that it is artificial and for be that their primary offer or insurance are eligible to change their mind and reversed their decision. was produced in a lab, and in however i think the first port addition to that the film spent of call must be talk quite a lot of time talking about to your institutional university and think about what is right for you. since results day a lot has happened and attacking fact chequers and media organisations that debunked and some students have already compromised. a warning today to universities claims in previous instalments in the film. this is quite difficult to in england, students from poorer areas must not be the losers.

this is a serious risk and i think stop spreading around, wasn‘t it? all of us are determined to try to prevent these unprecedented circumstances have the platforms, youtube, from having the most impact facebook, etc it been any better this time? indeed social media on students who can least afford companies have been extensively to navigate their way through it and the least able to navigate their way through it. criticised for their handling over the first instalment of the film campuses are deserted now because they only started taking it but universities have to manage down after it had reached over 8 numbers like never before. million people. on several social making them as safe as possible. media platforms. but looks like this time around they were a little bit more prepared to take action, and also warned their users that they to belarus, the disputed president, might be accessing potentially harmful information. even before alexander lu kashenka, they released the video with all has threatened to take measures warnings on twitter suggesting that against anyone who joins if you click on the link, when you a new council formed by the opposition. click on the link you receive a this is the announcement of the formation of the council — warning saying that you are about to it says its goal is to organise access potentially unsafe the transfer of power using lawful means. information and misinformation. and on facebook we noticed a straight it was set up by the main opposition after that the film started candidate in the election, streaming online that links to it

svet lana tik hanov skaya. she's had to flee the country — started disappearing and also some we'll hear a bit of the promos had fact checking more from her later. this is what mr lukashenka told the state—owned news agency labels. they were a little bit more in response: prepared, but the people behind the viral, first viral clip, they announced and promoted the release of the second instalment so the meanwhile, in this televised cabinet situation was a little bit different meeting mr lukashenka said this time. thank you. he's deployed the military at the country's western borders — adding the units are on full alert. now to a developing story in the us, where cost—cutting he's previously accused initiatives at the us postal service nato of deploying tanks have been suspended until after at the border with belarus, the november presidential election. a claim the organisation has the democrats accused the trump denied. administration of devising it's now nine days since the cutbacks to derail mail—in mr lukashenka claimed victory voting and disenfranchise voters in the presidential election, seeking to vote safely and protests continue. here you can see during the pandemic. protesters gathering outside a prison in minsk, where svet lana tik hanov skaya's anthony zurcher is in washington. husband is being held. it's his birthday — he and other opposition figures so what is going on here, anthony? were imprisoned before the august the 9th election, prompting ms tik hanov skaya to run for president. the latest, us postmaster general, here's the message announced that any cutbacks planned she released earlier. are going to be suspended until after the november election. clearly

within the political class. is ongoing here. donald trump, even four years ago was questioning the bela rus‘s ambassador to slovakia legitimacy of the election that he says he's handed in his resignation. here's what he told ended up winning, and here again not the bbc‘s today programme. having ironclad guarantee that he ido i do not see this on the would accept the result of the election, yesterday at a rally in minnesota he said the only way he geopolitical basis, these protests saw himself losing this election is are not against the east and they if there was fraud, so he is laying are not against the east and they are not against the east and they right out there that he does not are not against the west. these view the election as legitimate, workers and all belarussian people, particularly one where he seems to be trailing and very well might the demand of the authority to hold lose. even though people have the issues with the post office it‘s their dignity and demand fair pretty beloved, survey saying elections. but there's uncertainty about what will happen next — americans have favour the post and part of that uncertainty lies to the east in moscow. the german chancellor angela merkel spoke with the russian president office. a government run service vladimir putin today — here's what the kremlin had to say that people in particular rural afterwards: "the russian side stressed that any attempts areas rely on notjust for ballots but for receiving government checks, prescription drugs and that sort of thing. unwittingly touched and electrified rail here when he criticised it. interesting stuff,

this line of liners arrested by soldiers for what are currently the pride of britain‘s cruising fleet, appears to be an attempted coup. it but it‘s currently a fleet, and industry, of course. is not clear how the socialistic part, but it comes in the middle of a political crisis for the president duncan kennedy, bbc news, weymouth. was been under increased pressure to step down. let us go straight to her africa editor. hello, will do we know it has been happening?m africa editor. hello, will do we know it has been happening? it come from a government spokesman and he this is outside source live will be in thejob from the bbc newsroom. from a government spokesman and he will be in the job for much longer our lead story is... let‘s return to that humour in the prime minister were developing story in mali, where the president — ibrahim boubacar keita — and the prime minister — both arrested by the military a have been arrested by soldiers in some sort of mutiny. number of arrests and other single the leaders of the protest movement which has been out on the streets in the days prior to this said it was officials —— senior. it looked like "not a military coup — a mutiny with two of the military but a popular insurrection" — barracks with soldiers shooting and saying the president "did not want to listen to his people". some talk of disputes over pay and connectivity issues have been thenit some talk of disputes over pay and then it became pretty clear that this was something more serious. it hampering our efforts to speak 110w this was something more serious. it now looks as though this is in full

swing which is being widely from bbc afrique. condemned by the international community, including the african union but it comes at a time where what do we know about what is happening on the ground now? what we they have been in a political chaos know is that what seems to be a coup situation for many months now. after disputed elections, allegations of committee they are saying it‘s not a corruption and jihadist rebellion coup, is taking place right now in the country. the president and the and communal violence has gotten much worse of the years and the prime minister have been arrested. they are now detained, a city 15 km soldiers are occurring now with the huge number of protesters were saying that we really do need a from where the first gunshots took change at the top to sort out the place this morning. they are being insecurity. if this is happening is taken over there to respond to you just spell it out there, what does this mean? what happens next? questions. the military, the that is the big problem because a soldiers are saying, is not a very similar thing happened back in military coup but looks a little bit similarto military coup but looks a little bit similar to the same scenario that happened eight years ago when that 2012 and many were angry that the

government has mishandled the president was ousted after ten years rebellion was taking over parts of the north of the country and they in power. and what do we know about what has prompted this? it seems ousted the president and that led to them taking over the north of the country in the same jihadists are it‘s a man in the army. a colonel. causing havoc over west african now. where is no evidence if he is linked so, it's a huge task to take on the leadership of have an to the movement of the 5th ofjune, a coalition of the opposition. completely ousted and have an enormous challenge probably because of the problems that they face but started two months ago to also because this growing insecurity demonstrate against the authorities. and although thorough celebrations down the streets, many people will to maturity against the poverty, be wary and will rememberjust how bad things god after the last coup only 35% of molliens have access to d'etat, it led to the french ministry to push them out of the electricity. towns in the north, but they are still very, very strong, carrying .. they theyare they are thinking that the out attacks and their sometimes threatening to go beyond those
