hello, i'm ros atkins, this is outside source. england have knocked germany out of euro 2020 in front of a delirious crowd at wembley stadium it took until the 75th minute for england's raheem stirling to break the deadlock. and when captain harry kane nodded in with just four minutes left on the clock, victory was assured. the goals were met with huge celebration at this fanzone in london's trafalgar square. england haven't beaten germany in the knock out rounds of a major tournament since 1966. and ukraine and sweden will kick off

in an hour in glasgow — for their ticket into the quarter finals. south africa's top court sentences jacob zuma to jail, the former president has been given five days to hand himself into police before he's arrested. and in ethiopia, tigrayan forces have taken back their regional capital mekelle but hostilities are still hampering humanitarian aid. our teams ourteams are our teams are ready, our suppliers are ready and as we have stated in the last eight months, the challenge is always been that we have not had consistent access to people who need the help most. we start at euro 2020 — where there's huge celebration across england, with the national team beating one of their firecest rivals, germany, in the round of 16. it was a tight game at wembley in london —

but two goals, late on in the second half, gave england theirfirst victory over germany in the knock—out round of a major tournament match since the 1966 world cup final. we'll start with that goal from raheem sterling. he started and finished a move in the 75th minute to open the scoring. here he is celebrating and here are the england fans in the trafalagar square fan zone. england survived a scare almost immediately. tomas mueller breaking away and missing a one on one with the england goalkeepeer as he hit the ball wide and this was his reaction and then came this. harry kane — the captain — headed the clinching second goal

for england in the 86th minute. here he is celebrating his first goal of the tournament and here was the reacton in trafalgar square. a lot of beer flying in the air as england fans realised they were through to the quarter finals and here are the england fans in the trafalagar square fan zone after the second goal. i don't know if i can show this to you. it doesn't look like i can but the headline is a good one. germany is going home. very good and of course england fans are saying football is coming home. something that was sung many times in 1996, the last time they played games at wembley. let us

john watson is at wembley. pretty good atmosphere there? amazing atmosphere. when that these england fans will remember for many years to come. there is so much history, it has shaped this fixture between england and germany in the past and historically, it is a match that england have not fared well in. four times and can have faced germany and a knockout match for the tournament since england won the world cup back in 1966 and have lost every single one of them. they arrived at wembley stadium in london, hopefulthat arrived at wembley stadium in london, hopeful that those near misses, the disappointments could finally be put to one side at long last little bit able to create some happier and more memorable moments of their own and disappointment for germany and those who leave their job now the end of this tournament and of course, they did win the world cup but time for these england fans to celebrate because of the

huge victory for very special victory and one that shaped by the history and events and disappointments and upsets that have gone through this penalty shoot—out defeats that england suffered here at wembley and a euro 96 and before that at italian 90 at the world cup where he missed the decisive penalty where he missed the decisive penalty where they saw germany go through the semifinals and perhaps now, these england fans can start putting those disappointments to one side because now, they have beaten germany and a knockout match and they will go through to the quarterfinals of the euro 2020 where they will face either sweden or ukraine at the start of the olympic co. in rome and take on ukraine and in glasgow this evening.— in glasgow this evening. germany is out, in glasgow this evening. germany is out. france's _ in glasgow this evening. germany is out, france's outcome _ in glasgow this evening. germany is out, france's outcome of _ in glasgow this evening. germany is out, france's outcome of portugal. in glasgow this evening. germany isj out, france's outcome of portugal is out, france's outcome of portugal is out, and i love to talk about england is a serious contender for the tournament? i

not many fans been allowed to watch football matches as a result of this covid—19 restrictions. it was something that you wait for wanted to make sure that the tournament was the spectacle they wanted to be in the spectacle they wanted to be in the field they needed fans to do that. and certainly we will see an increase again for the semifinals at the finals to come which will be staged here at wembley stadium in london. . ~ staged here at wembley stadium in london. ., ~ , ., staged here at wembley stadium in london. . ~' , ., , staged here at wembley stadium in london. ., ~ ,, , . staged here at wembley stadium in london. . ~' , ., , . . staged here at wembley stadium in london. ., ~ , . ., , london. thank you very much. that is john levitt wembley _ london. thank you very much. that is john levitt wembley where _ london. thank you very much. that is john levitt wembley where england i john levitt wembley where england have beaten germany. ——john levitt wembley south africa's former presidentjacob zuma has been sentenced to 15 months in prison forfailing to appear at a corruption inquiry. this was the presiding judge as she handed down the sentence. no person is above the law and every person, whatever his rank or condition, is subject to the realm

of the law and amenable to the jurisdiction of this tribunal. and an act of defiance has the potential to precipitate a constitutional crisis. if with impunity, litigants are allowed to decide which laws they wish to obey and which they wish to avoid, then our constitution is not worth the paper upon which it is not worth the paper upon which it is written. with his immdiate analysis — this is the bbc�*s andrew harding in johannesburg. he has presented himself in this case and many others from the start as a victim, of a vast political conspiracy and so i think you will go with his head held high, be speeches and supporters, but i think an awful lot of south africans, perhaps the majority will simply be relieved to see this process meeting some sort of finality and ending and

probably it is for a short time he could be out within three or four months. zuma now has five days to hand himself into a police station. failing that, his arrest will be ordered. so far we've not heard from him. but we have heard from his daughter. she's tweeted saying he's in "high spirits and has no fear". we have a choice between serving our time injhb 0r nkandla?0f course we have chosen to be close to home. she goes on: "lockdown or no lockdown, we will escourt jacob zuma was president of south africa from 2009 until 2018. he stood down after losing a vote of no confidence. he'd be dogged by corruption allegations. and right now, he currently faces 16 corruption charges. they involve 783 instances of alleged wrongdoing, racketeering, fraud, tax evasion and money laundering. most of the charges relate to arms deals that

south africa struck with european companies in the 1990s they were valued at more than 30 billion rand — that's 5 billion us dollars. this prison sentence is significant in its own right — but it's also significant because the current president, cyril ramaphosa, has been keen to show he's serious about corruption. here's andrew harding again. this is not just this is notjust aboutjustice, there's a huge political element to this. jacob zuma is at the centre of a campaign within this for control of the party and therefore, control of the party and therefore, control of the party and therefore, control of the country. but in recent months, we have seen those forces oppose to the president losing ground, the secretary—general forced to stand aside in his own corruption allegations. micro and also facing trial already on trial for an older corruption case. i think this is very encouraging news for the forces allied with them of the sceptics

will still say that we need to see a lot more action, a lot more people injail, a lot more trials lot more action, a lot more people in jail, a lot more trials finishing before cultural impunity and high—level corruption is in the backslidden south african. jacob zuma is a politically weaker these days and his legal options have now run out. he's likely to many more legal challenges in the coming months. and while it's not clear how long this trial will last, or what the outcome might be,, it's nevertheless a defining moment for south africa. several big developments in the conflict in the ethiopian region of tigray. the state capital — mekelle — is back in the hands of rebel troops —— eight months after it was captured by the government. and the rebels's success was met with celebrations. tigrayan rebels posted these pictures on twitter, though it's not clear when they were filmed. there were also reports of fireworks

on the streets of mekelle and people carrying tigrayan flags. though if you weren't pleased for the rebels, of course you'd be less likely to show it. mekelle was captured by federal troops in november. and ever since there's been a bitter conflict that's killed thousands and created a famine for an estimated 350,000 people. fesseha tessema is a former ethiopian ambassador to germany — and is tigrayan himself. he's also advising rebels. here he is declaring victory. in the last few days, they have been completely defeated by the tigray forces. many have evacuated from the region and the elected government of tigray in the capital, that is what we have found. there is no single

events have been moving quickly. this is what we know. on monday, as tigrayan rebels closed in on mekelle — and those who'd been put in charge by ethiopia's federal government started to flee. 0ne official told afp these pictures posted on twitter are said to show weapons that were left behind. though again, we can't verify this. then we had this statement from people calling themselves the government of the national state of tigray. it says mekelle is... the invading forces being the national government. within hours ethiopia's government called for a ceasefire on humanitarian grounds — it didn't comment on its withdrawal from mekelle. and it certainly didn't admit defeat. this is the spokesman for the interim government in tigray.

for humanitarian aid to reach the region without any problems, and for the season to happen on time, and its people can return to their homes. discussing ways to give political solutions to fit the season with the government. so, the interim administration assessed the government a cease—fire. but there's no appetite for truce. today the tplf said it was in �*hot pursuit�* of federal forces in the south and east of mekelle city. we have these pictures from another town in tigray. this is said to be the tplf celebrating after driving out eritrean troops out of shire. they've been allied to the government. and this is where the conflict could take a dangerous turn. the tplf is threatening to enter neighbouring eritrea and another region of ethiopia which has been backing the federal government. this is the message from the tplf.

we have to ensure that enemy, whether from eritrean side or amhara side or addis ababa, doesn't have the capability to threaten the security of our people anymore. so we'll do what it takes to make sure that those enemies who have been pillaging our villages, ransacking our private and public properties, destroying infrastructure, do not have the means and the wherewithal to come back ethiopia's government launched an offensive in tigray in november, accusing tigrayan leaders of attacking its military bases. conflict since then has driven 2 million from their homes. this school in mekelle is now a shelter for the internally displaced. we're told 90,000 children are unable to go to school. 5 million people in tigray, that's over 90% of the population — need emergency assistance. here's a unicef spokesman in addis ababa.

the fact that we have these developments in the past 24 hours does not really mean that all of a sudden that the humanitarian situation for people has improved. there is a lot of work that needs to be done and there's a lot of excess issues that need to be resolved with whichever 40 that we will be in a position to give us access. 0ur teams are ready, orfor position to give us access. 0ur teams are ready, or for pleasure ruby with the past eight months, the challenges but we have not yet had consistent access to rich people who need this. beverly 0chieng, is in nairobi. —have we heard anything from the ethiopian govt? so the prime minister is not a statement on their own, but the federal government the federal government has tried to justify the cease—fire, trend of agricultural planting season and it seems to be a way of saving face in the light of

the fact that the rebels seem to be winning and there are celebrations in the equity region. but there is no independent corporation that they are in the government is holding back on its formation and managing the kind of narrative that's coming out of the region which has been consistent the conflict. can out of the region which has been consistent the conflict.— consistent the conflict. can you hel us consistent the conflict. can you help us understand _ consistent the conflict. can you help us understand what - consistent the conflict. can you help us understand what the i consistent the conflict. can you - help us understand what the rebels want to achieve, what is their ideal outcome here? the want to achieve, what is their ideal outcome here?— want to achieve, what is their ideal outcome here? the brandon, it was them that were _ outcome here? the brandon, it was them that were in _ outcome here? the brandon, it was them that were in power _ outcome here? the brandon, it was them that were in power and - outcome here? the brandon, it was them that were in power and they i them that were in power and they have come as the defence force and part of the justification and returning is to save the people of the tigray region after the months of fighting and abuse, notjust from federal forces but associate in a chair forces. federal forces but associate in a chairforces. they federal forces but associate in a chair forces. they are federal forces but associate in a chairforces. they are presenting themselves as a saviour force when they fell up with the federal government because the election being postponed, they held their own

that is really helpful. thank you very much indeed. (explaining what is happening in ethiopia. there is raheem sterling giving england a 1—0 lead in the european championships and implemented to in the end and they are through to the quarterfinals just to put this in context, england has not beaten germany and at major tournament since 1966. over germany and at major tournament since 1966. 0ver40,000 germany and at major tournament since 1966. over 40,000 spectators were in wembley and particularly a high figure due to the covid—19 restrictions, let's take a look at the fence in the private square. what makes excited by the victory and most people we see there would not be able to remember the last

time england beat germany in a knockout match in the major tournament. why ukraine versus sweden they will also be looking for a place in the quarterfinals. a fragile ceasefire continues to hold a month on from the war between israel and hamas in gaza.? at least 250 palestinians and 13 people in israel were killed during eleven days 0ur middle east correspondent tom bateman reports. everyone in gaza is a survivor. he wears old wounds, twice shot for reaching israel's red line. any further than this and he faces its military. his boat is forced to close to shore to catch the best sardines. he keeps hoping.

israel says his blockade also backed by egypt stops webbing skin again. but it is suffocating for people here. it got even tighter during the latest war. as the conflict erupted in may, israel said the targets were military sites. they fired hundreds of missiles at israel. even the children are used to suffering. 0ne israel. even the children are used to suffering. one of the newest survivors. now, his mum fixing home, the first time she has been back to the first time she has been back to the house that the family built. she says the explosions were terrifying

and she fears it will happen again. palestinian officials plan is really air strike. palestinian officials plan is really airstrike. israel says palestinian officials plan is really air strike. israel says it did not carry an attack there at the time. for the family, it is a conflict they have no control over, which will determine the children's now, they face the massive task of another reconstruction. anywhere else in the world and these men would be builders, but here the work is clearing palm sites and from this point, you get such a sense of the power, the force that is involved in bringing this building down. meanwhile, people walk past the these days barely batting an eyelid. it's just another type of building in gaza. i care is held by groups

that israel on the west seizes terrorists. israel demands complete comb, the groups need to keep control. politics and militancy merge in gaza and so, a fragile truce is also in negotiation. 0ne merge in gaza and so, a fragile truce is also in negotiation. one of the armed groups just to show us it still poses a threat. you fire rockets at civilians and children, that is a war crime. the next morning. — children, that is a war crime. the next morning, it _ children, that is a war crime. the next morning, it feels desperate at the market. wherejobs catch in

place for fuel for services and keep trying. see you in a couple of minutes. hello. the north—south split in our weather becomes rather more east west over the next couple of days. of course, its northern areas, northern england, northern ireland and scotland that see the lion's share of the driest sunniest weather so far this week and particularly across southern areas of england in some spots, it has been very wet. the east—west orientation of our weather is to do with this area of low pressure still close to eastern parts, but also the flow of air to the north northeastjust overnight and into tomorrow is bringing in a good deal of cloud down across eastern parts here. and with that, there will be some light rain and drizzle be quite misty within as well. the clear blue skies stay out towards the west, particularly wales and southwest england. as you start off on wednesday morning with the mild start,

temperatures holding up the double figures. it will be rather grey and gloomy start in the east and again, quite damp and drizzly and places, misty murky. keep a lot of cloud through the day here, i think more of scotland brightening up, northern ireland, wales and must in parts of england. some sunny spells coming through here, maybe not as much sunshine as some of us here enjoyed in the past couple of days, unless of course you want a bit more rain on the garden, june for some has been quite dry. a range of temperatures, mid—teens for some north sea coastal parts. but you get some sunshine to break out in to the low 20s. so, we'll have another day with plenty of cloud at wimbledon, perhaps a few spots of rain in the air and gradually though, as the rest of the week goes on, it'll turn a bit sunnier a bit warmer too. through wednesday evening, no great change but late afternoon and parts of wales and southwest england, a chance of things picking up and it's hit and miss. but possibly heavy and may be thundery showers. 0vernight and into thursday, some cloud increasing parts

of england but a few showers popping up toward england and wales. but on thursday, things are looking dry and again, a higher temperatures where we will see the sunshine in the low 20s and perhaps a little bit warmer there. largely dry on friday, it may start dry over the weekend. another area of low pressure here as things start to turn more unsettled from the southwest but areas of rain or showers gradually extending northwards as the weekend goes on. you may start dry over the weekend, showers more widespread on sunday, you will be having the driest weather for the longest part of the weekend.

hello, i'm ros atkins, this is 0utside source. england have knocked germany out of euro 2020 in front of a delirious crowd at wembley stadium it took untl the 75th minute for england's raheem stirling to break the deadlock. and when captain harry kane nodded in with just four minutes left on the clock, victory was assured. the goals were met with huge celebration at this fanzone in london's trafalgar square. england haven't beaten germany in the knock out rounds of a major tournament since 1966. and ukraine and sweden will kick off in glasgow in half an hour — for their ticket into the quarterfinals. south africa's top court sentences jacob zuma to jail ——

the former president has been given five days to hand himself into police before he's arrested. temperature records are being broken because of the intense heat wave. temperatures reached 47.9 degrees since british columbia, meteorologists are likening to the conditions to a pressure cooker. the famous victory, england three to the quarterfinals. the rain came after two goals late in the second half first of all from raheem sterling and harry kane. here is a treat. sir geoff hurst, who was in the england world cup winning team

�*66 tweeted he was thrilled to bits jenny hill is in a beer garden in berlin they are completely devastated. it's almost as if a summer thunderstorm hasjust almost as if a summer thunderstorm has just rolled into the sky above my head into bare garden people were gathered to watch that terrible defeat. they are really upset and i think what made it even harder for them is very few people here expected to lose and earlier this afternoon as the fans are gathering they were saying we are pretty confident that germany will lean and we think we will then quite strongly then watching as the match went on clutching their beer glasses first and hope and frustration been hope and hope and frustration been hope and frustration and then of course ultimately despair. in the words of one young woman here, we thought germany was going to win because

germany was going to win because germany always does win against england. so great shock for a of people here tonight. i suppose that is coupled with the fact that this feeling was held in different circumstances as a result of coronavirus restrictions. many of the fans in germany would have loved to have been in the stadium cheering on their national side and that was not possible by the 90 people and in addition to that the authorities here are concerned about the spread of the delta variance and there were vast funds owns or mass public viewing area set out in towns and cities like you would normally get back on my tip of this magnitude, instead small venues like this which were restricted people on the and street pavement and bars that have been chilling to match across britain and the whole country tonight. they will now be commiserating with one another but one other sentence and hearing is based. we will be back. germany will be back. i have no doubt that they will. thank you very much. they had

to get used to something they did not have to for a long time. being defeated by england in a major tournament. richard foster is a footballjournalist. what plan to write this time? they have to get — what plan to write this time? they have to get accustomed _ what plan to write this time? tue have to get accustomed to what plan to write this time? he have to get accustomed to winning, don't they? basically what southgate did was he got a lot of criticism for setting up negatively but three were very solid so that back three did a good job so walker, mcguire, even a platform and he was probably the best player in the first half and he gave us and he showed something that we have been lacking is a goal—scorer and it's quite weird because he scored the first three goals in this tournament and

he has now scored 15 in the last 20 and i think he scored three in the first 45 england international and then being pretty anonymous set any get a goal and what a difference for the team coming on and made a massive difference because he not only set him up but he also put the cross in self a lot of people will argue maybe he should be in desk —— that's 1311 but he argue maybe he should be in desk —— that's1311 but he proved his worth and the germans missed a couple of really good chances and they made a fantastic save and it happen very early in the second half which i think was the crucialjuncture in the game and then unbelievably thomas muller missed that chance when he was through and the fact is he has never scored a goal in the euros and quite frankly he is not

going to score a goal in the year is because he will not be around in four years or three years time. the? four years or three years time. they looked set uo _ four years or three years time. they looked set up at _ four years or three years time. they looked set up at the _ four years or three years time. they looked set up at the end of the game as well. let me ask you a question about germany. they built an entire site around his idea of football. he's been in charge for 15 years not just a defeat in the tournament, it's the end of an era for german football. �* , ., ., ., , ., football. it's a long time to be a manager- _ football. it's a long time to be a manager- 15 _ football. it's a long time to be a manager. 15 years _ football. it's a long time to be a manager. 15 years and - football. it's a long time to be a| manager. 15 years and obviously football. it's a long time to be a - manager. 15 years and obviously they won a world cup under himself i think he will go out with his head slightly valid but still he has cut the edgy things he needs. we like a manager who's been here for 15 years and won a world cup. and he'll probably produce different types of football but i think we have to luxuriate in the fact that we had beaten the germans and of course we did beat him in the euros in 2000 but that was in the grip game and now things are opening up so i don't

want to get ahead of ourselves. we are in a reasonably good place. we have not conceded the goal for a very long time and we have got to ukraine next and repeat seating in the quarterfinals in the last world cup so things are looking relatively rosy but i don't want to get ahead of ourselves. we rosy but i don't want to get ahead of ourselves-— rosy but i don't want to get ahead of ourselves. we will take it, thank ou ve of ourselves. we will take it, thank you very much- _ of ourselves. we will take it, thank you very much. there _ of ourselves. we will take it, thank you very much. there is _ of ourselves. we will take it, thank you very much. there is richard . you very much. there is richard helping us with england beating germany. the us and canada are still dealing extreme temperatures. that's according to the world meteorological organization today — they've likened the heatwave to a pressure cooker. the heat is being caused by atmospheric blocking so it means he is very high temperatures are concentrated over one particular

area and normally you have forjet stream which is based fast, high moving belt of land which moves these letter systems on and that is not happening this time. so it's almost like a pressure cooker effect. the above very high. let me give you an idea of how high these temperatures are and how localised they have been. this is the area around seattle, in the north west of the us, last friday when the heat first started rising. the darker reds indicate temperatures of around 40 degrees celsius — that's about 104 degrees fahrenheit. and this image gives you an idea of how high the air temperature was in the pacific northwest, two days ago. the dark red shows how it had risen more than fifteen degrees celsius above the average over the last seven years. let's take a look at lytton — it's a small village in british columbia in canada but it's been making headlines these last few days after it broke record

temperatures two days in a row. on sunday, temperatures in lytton reached 46.6 degrees celsius, smashing canada's previous record set in 1937 by a full 1.6 degrees. less than 24 hours later, it broke its own record, reaching 47.9 degree celsius on monday. world meteorological 0rganization says this is staggering. this, to be under name is in the province of british columbia and is home to the rocky mountains and yet we are seeing temperatures which are more typical of the middle east or north africa. and it's notjust canada — much of the west coast of the us is also suffering, including many states more used to colder climates like washington and oregon. washington state recorded temperatures of 42 degrees yesterday evening evening ? well above sunday's all—time high of 40 degrees.

in oregon's capital city, portland, several covid vaccination sites had to close over and people have been sleeping in "cooling shelters" to escape the heat. drjennifer vines is the top regional health official for the portland metro region, shejoins me now. thank you for your time, i am assuming you are treating this as a public health emergency? this assuming you are treating this as a public health emergency?- public health emergency? this is absolutely a _ public health emergency? this is absolutely a public _ public health emergency? this is absolutely a public health - public health emergency? this is - absolutely a public health emergency for people who are not familiar with portland, oregon. we are a temperate climate with highs this time of year typically in the high 70s with the record shattering heat this last few days, well over 100 degrees with not that much cooling with 80 degrees overnight. we saw this coming and we mobilised that this was a real life safety threat. and speaking to you

if health care workers instead where they like a mask that the rate of infection suddenly drops. researchers discovered that during the second wave of covid—19 when hospitals in cambridge decided to upgrade the standard of protection beyond official guidance. surgical mask is ace standard issue for most health workers and it's comfortable but the gaps on the sides paid in infectious particles. unlike with this type which has a far tighter seal and a study says living the would be... a different version of ffp three masks i'll do the same job of filtering out anything hazardous in the air. a similar standard required under covid—19 whites in america. research is here they we should now do the same.— america. research is here they we should now do the same. there is a 47 times higher _ should now do the same. there is a 47 times higher risk _

tournament since 1966 we're going to look in detail at the uk government's belief that it remains on track to stop most covid restrictions next month — despite concerns about increasing case numbers. this was the health secretary on monday. dates we choose comes with zero risk for covid—19. we covid—19. we know we cannot simply eliminate data, we have to learn to live with it. framing, the 19th ofjuly is not on me the end of the line, but the start of an exciting newjourney. but does this optimism about the uk's ability to live restriction—free reflect the state of the pandemic? here's the latest data. nearly 23,000 new cases were reported in the uk on monday — that was the highest daily rise since the end of january. this is being driven by the delta variant. compare that to european countries such as italy — which reported 389 new cases.

germany has seen cases of the delta variant more than double in a week — but it still only reported 341 cases on monday. you can see the disparity in case numbers in this graph of the seven—day average of new infections. what is crucial when we consider the government's calculation is the link between case numbers — and hospitalisation numbers. the data shows the link is weakening. here's bbc health reporter, jim reed. if you look at the peak of the second race back injanuary, roughly about nine or 10% of people who reported a covid—19 infection would have ended up in hospital or in some way. so nine or 10% back injanuary. that has gone down to between three and 4% and it's falling faster as we see the vaccination will continue.

central to the government's strategy are vaccinations. a minister told politico that "case numbers by mid—july could quite easily be at 250,000 new infections per week" but they stressed that — thanks to the vaccine program — on the current data "the nhs could sustain the level of hospitalizations, and the number of deaths would be relatively low." the context here is that 62% of adults in the uk have now been fully vaccinated. also this is important — an analysis by public health england earlier this month showed that of the 223 hospitalisations since february, 20 people had been fully vaccinated — while the remaining 203 cases were unvaccinated or had had one dose. but there is still a risk, especially if restrictions are cancelled, that case numbers will rise. here's jim reed again. the problem that you start to see a big increase in infections and you could still see a sharp increase in

hospitalisations. it would be lower than without the vaccinations like it could still definitely take up as we go into the summer period and we started to see hospitalisation rise. but we have not seen is that number of deaths started to rise. now while the uk government looks to ease restrictions in england — a growing list of countries are putting up restricitons for people coming from the uk. germany designated britain a "virus variant risk area" in late may, meaning only german nationals or residents are allowed to enterfrom the uk, barring a few exceptions. there is concern about the upcoming matches of football's european championship, which are due to be held at wembley stadium here in london. 60,000 fans will be allowed to watch the tournament's semi—finals and final live, meaning the stadium will be at 75% capacity for those games. the german chancellor has criticised a lack of european—wide coordination on entry restrictions for travellers from

risk areas. we have very strict regulations here which so far have helped prevent the delta variant from spreading quickly but that's not the case in every eu member state and a lesson of this pandemic must be to have the same rules and if you come from great britain you have to go into quarantine and that's not the case in every european country. let's speak to our uk political correspondent rob watson. the government emphasises it would be tripping by the data here but to what degree is politics relevant to the fact that one section of the prime minister party is very keen to see these restrictions go? . prime minister party is very keen to see these restrictions go?— see these restrictions go? . that's a hue see these restrictions go? . that's a huge faetor _ see these restrictions go? . that's a huge factor but _ see these restrictions go? . that's a huge factor but i'm _ see these restrictions go? . that's a huge factor but i'm still- see these restrictions go? . that's a huge factor but i'm still coming. a huge factor but i'm still coming down from the football. but that is a huge factor and it's being locked

down and sceptical right from the start and they also have a lockdown skin thick champion in the form of borisjohnson despite his own near brush with death but it will be given by the beta and i think what the government will point to and so will some economies that one is key here and the difference between the uk and other european countries isn't so much the level of the virus that's out there but the level of vaccination which then breaks the link between levels of infection in hospitalisations and deaths. what degree does that shift the dynamic around these decisions? my gut instinct is that it doesn't shift it very much. the key player here is

borisjohnson and they think mr johnson was absolutely determined, however was health secretary, whether it was matt hancock or someone elevated is now. however it was, they lose you or ross, unless there was some extraordinary chains into scientific data, sometime between now and july the 19th, the prime minister was determined and is determined to go ahead and lifted lockdown restrictions and sorry we know that is what he told us and our senior cabinet ministers this morning that he was increasingly confident that would be possible. he's also been talking about the easing of restrictions being irreversible. i wonder how much of a risk you think that it's by the prime minister given that he has acknowledged there may be circumstances down the track when it proves not to be irreversible? you could have added in that given what has happened over the last 12, 14, 15, 16 months that the politicians

including mrjohnson have made promises that they do take and other countries were on top of the virus thanit countries were on top of the virus than it had this horrible habit of getting out from under control so to some extent it's a hostage and it depends on how long peoples memories would be and of course it depends on the success of the vaccine programme and i think what you have to see here in the uk is a government writing on a genuine wave of support and success from the roll—outs of the vaccine. again the prime minister attending ministers this morning that these things over 80% have —— of adults in the uk received their first vaccine. thank you for breaking away from the football, we appreciate it. there's also no a debate in england around booster vaccine. notjust about double vaccinating people but something to say you to now concentrate on

further vaccines as we go into autumn and winter. the issue around providing vaccine members boosters is not going to be resolved once everyone has had both vaccines. he came down to raheem sterling scoring in the sand to 50 minutes it was his first goal, in the tournament. raheem stirling scored the opener. england will now progress to the quarter finals. the prime minister borisjohnson has tweeted — "well done england, we're all behind you — bring it home!" and he tweeted this image of himself watching the game on tv. the german ambassador to the uk tweeted "congratulations england. much deserved victory. this great competition between germany and the uk will continue"

these were the goals. raheem stirling in the 75th minute. and then harry kane later in the second half. more than 40 thousand spectators , mainly english , were watching at london's wembley stadium. ukraine take on sweden shortly in glasgow to contest the remaining spot in the final eight. 40,000 spectators were inside wembley. this is one of the biggest crowds he had seen gathered during the pandemic. that figure will move up the pandemic. that figure will move up when wembley hosts the semis and the final. up to 60,000, 75% capacity. a quick mention of the other games today. ukraine against street and picking off in glasgow and that is for the remaining spots

in the quarterfinals. if you want to follow that you can do that to the bbc sports app and i will see you soon. hello. the north—south split in our weather becomes rather more east—west over the next couple of days. of course, its northern areas, northern england, northern ireland and scotland that see the lion's share of the driest sunniest weather so far this week and particularly across southern areas of england in some spots, it has been very wet. the east—west orientation of our weather is to do with this area of low pressure still close to eastern parts, but also the flow of air to the north northeastjust overnight and into tomorrow is bringing in a good deal of cloud down across eastern parts here. and with that, there will be some light rain and drizzle be quite misty within as well. the clear blue skies stay out towards the west, particularly wales and southwest england. as you start off on wednesday morning with the mild start, temperatures holding up the double figures. it will be rather grey and gloomy start in the east and again, quite damp and drizzly and places, misty murky. keep a lot of cloud through the day here,

i think more of scotland brightening up, northern ireland, wales and must in parts of england. some sunny spells coming through here, maybe not as much sunshine as some of us here enjoyed in the past couple of days, unless of course you want a bit more rain on the garden, june for some has been quite dry. a range of temperatures, mid—teens for some north sea coastal parts. but you get some sunshine to break out in to the low 20s. so, we'll have another day with plenty of cloud at wimbledon, perhaps a few spots of rain in the air and gradually though, as the rest of the week goes on, it'll turn a bit sunnier a bit warmer too. through wednesday evening, no great change but late afternoon and parts of wales and southwest england, a chance of things picking up and it's hit and miss. but possibly heavy and may be thundery showers. 0vernight and into thursday, some cloud increasing parts of england but a few showers popping up toward england and wales. but on thursday, things are looking dry and again, a higher temperatures where we will see the sunshine

in the low 20s and perhaps a little bit warmer there. largely dry on friday, it may start dry over the weekend. another area of low pressure here as things start to turn more unsettled from the southwest but areas of rain or showers gradually extending northwards as the weekend goes on. you may start dry over the weekend, showers more widespread on sunday, you will be having the driest weather for the longest part of the weekend. shower is
