i think it's time for a course correction. we have been doing this for more than 50 years. now we're back here again and it'sjust like, when is this going to end, you know? but they are going to keep putting out attacks and we are going to keep fighting them. nobody wakes up in the morning and decides, "i want to get- an abortion today. " it's the hardest decision that a woman will have to make i in her entire life and we - should trust women to make that decision for themselves. women's rights! in texas especially, protesters have been fired up by a strict new abortion law. applause. it bans the procedure after only six weeks of pregnancy. millions of innocent children lose their right to life every year because of abortion. in texas, we want to save those lives. the supreme court allowed the extreme texas law to go into effect, a sign to protesters that the balance of power on the bench has shifted — conservative control strengthened by donald trump's judicial appointments — and they will take up a challenge to national

abortion rights in just a few months. organisers are hoping this will help them recruit new activists for the fight ahead and it's a deeply political one, perhaps more than any other issue in american law, divided along bitterly partisan battle lines. a confrontation just outside the supreme court but the future of abortion rights will be decided inside. barbara plett usher, bbc news, washington. she gave me her reaction to what is happening in texas. it is horrific. a six—week abortion ban, to get a sense of what that means, 85— 90% of people who choose to get abortions to do so after six weeks. and by six weeks most people don't even know that they�* re pregnant. so it is, in effect,

a near total ban on abortion in texas, with many states in the south of the united states poised to lobby for copycat bills, and the most recent development of a decades—long trend of chipping away at our reproductive rights in this country. tell us more about those other states. are there any particular areas you're concerned about? the south in particular but, for example, six states already have only one abortion clinic in them so things like cost of travel, lodging, childcare, economic hardship, all of these things are prohibitions on people to access their reproductive care and in december, the supreme court is going to hear another case from mississippi in their 15 week ban and if the supreme court keeps refusing to block these laws then we can essentially see an overturning of roe v wade in this country. you were at the rally in new york, east coast, fairly liberal. how easy it is at for a woman in new york to get an abortion? there's still a lot of difficulties. the primary one is economic, particularly because public insurance, federal funds are not allowed to go to abortion services due to something called the hyde amendment which for the first time ever was not

included in this year's budget. but until then, if you were on medicaid, for example, you were not covered for your insurance in order to get abortions. things like commuting, access to services and also just harassment in front of clinics that may deter people from seeking the services that they need. what's your take on the response to all of this by the biden administration? the biden administration has made important steps such as not including the hyde amendment in this year's budget. but that was not biden�*s position as of last year, for example. so i think his recommendation to the supreme court to block these draconian abortion restrictions is laudable, but we will have to see how it really plays out. taking a step back and looking at the global picture, abortion seems to be making it more into the headlines recently.

you've got countries like poland, very roman catholic, which has effectively banned abortion. at the same time countries like argentina, also very roman catholic, have now legalised abortion. why do you think it's entering national discourse so much in certain parts of the world? i think the answer — one is the economic crises in these countries. i'm argentinian, for example, and the mass movements that have been associated and really galvanised by the question of abortion and what anti—abortion laws really do to a whole society. for example in latin america it is the second highest cause of death for women — is illegal unsafe abortions. so that kind of effect of really your lives depending on these laws and fighting for them, ithink, is really the only thing is pushing the change. i think that's also true for the biden administration.

biden�*s personal position of first supporting the hyde amendment and having to reverse his position was because of people really holding him accountable. fire has ravaged the honduran resort island of guanaja. this incredible footage shows people desperately trying to douse the flames. the fire broke out in the early hours of saturday morning. by daybreak the inferno was raging, hundreds were forced to evacuate with the honduran air force sent to help fight the fire. dozens of homes have been destroyed but remarkably no lives, reportedly, have been lost. linda coello joined me linda coellojoined me a short time ago with an update on the situation. this morning when we woke up with the pictures and videos of what was happening in guanaja, we just start crying because we've been there many times and we know that at the quay, what we call bonacca, this fire would do the whole island. the only place that the people could go to save themselves was the ocean.

and it has been really, i think, the worst that they have gone through because even with the hurricanes, they had shelters, they could move up to the mountain to the hills, but with the fire, it was just... i think the worst. i mean, people were running in panic. us here on the mainland, we just didn't know what to do. thanks to food for the poor that we've had already prepared ourselves for the hurricane season. we had some emergency kits that we just started sending them. we had some good contacts with the airline here, a small airline, that flies to guanaja. so by 10:00am we were able to send 126 boxes of human aid — generators, blankets, flashlights, food, clothing, but we still have a lot to go. we are sending also some things by boat that we had, we have this good relationship with food for the poor, that they just answered

the minute that — that was my first thing to do, call food for the poor, send them the pictures and tell them, we need you, we really need you, this is the worst and we will be using the emergency kits that you sent us for the floods and the hurricanes because this is just an emergency as anything else could get. we've heard that there's been no fatalities, fortunately. what is some of the damage? what are some of the injuries that you have heard of? there have some people that have been burned, mostly men, probably because they were trying to save their things and save their children. up to now i spoke with the mayor about an hour ago and he says that they don't see any deaths of people but that mostly half of the island is done. i mean, the houses were wood, they were old houses, and restaurants, remember this is a tourist area. they're gone, completely gone. he says maybe 122 homes are maybejust wiped off but that they cannot really make the assessment because it's still too hot and they cannot go inside the quay because

of how hot it is. linda coello, we'll have to leave it there. that was linda coellojoining us from honduras earlier. thousands have been demonstrating in brazil calling for presidentjair bolsonaro's removal. 0pposition parties and trade unions heralded one year ahead of the election. he is lagging behind his socialist rival in opinion polls. mark lobel reports. the call from the thousands in the streets across the country was forjair bolsonaro's impeachment and for him to go, with exactly a year until the next presidential election. translation: we have - a president who does not invest in the health system, does not care about the population that is going hungry, and we can no longer stand this government. holding aloft their preferred successor, jair bolsonaro's left—wing rival luiz inacio lula da silva.

their former president ahead in the opinion polls as well as their affections, now released from prison after serving time for corruption. the country is reeling after almost 600,000 people have so far died of coronavirus here, the second—highest country death toll worldwide. many brazilians blame it on president bolsonaro's handling of the outbreak. translation: i am here today for all of the family members l and friends who could not be present and who unfortunately died. meanwhile, brazil's most vulnerable have suffered from rising prices. translation: inflation has. caused some changes in food consumption in my home. i am replacing some of the red meat with white beans and eggs. i see a big difference in my electricity bill, as well. but the bullish president is armed with self—confidence, projecting the image of a strongman seemingly kids' play for him during his first

1,000 days of government. translation: 1,000 days of many achievements. - 1,000 difficult days in the pandemic, but also 1,000 days without corruption. his supporters as committed as ever, backing his latest stance against vaccination passports. translation: we are fighting for a better brazil - _ a more prosperous, morejust brazil. but protesters are turning up the heat on the president, whose approval rating is at an all—time low, with dozens of outstanding requests to parliament to impeach him and several supreme court—backed investigations into his behaviour now underway. you are watching bbc news. let's get some of the day's other stories.

there have been chaotic scenes in the chilean capital santiago as police try to control rival marches for and against migration from venezuela and haiti. several people were injured as protesters threw stones when the two marchers converged in the city centre. now, the authorities in oman have urged people in northern coastal areas to evacuate their homes as a cyclone is due to make landfall in the next 2a hours. cyclone shaheen is advancing towards the northern omani coast with winds up to 150km/h. it's expected to bring heavy rain and high waves. climate ministers gathered in italy say a lot more progress needs to be made by wealthy countries before a crucial summit in glasgow in november. from milan, here is our environment correspondent victoria gill. frustration on the streets as young activists marched to the milan climate conference on friday. this is ourfuture, and we have

to fight for our futures. inside the conference today, a mood of quiet formality as negotiators brought this meeting to a close. what is been discussed, though, could hardly be more urgent. the fires, the floods, the melting of the ice and the rising of the sea, and turmoil in populations... the overall message from leaders here is one of cautious optimism — that it will be possible to reach a decisive climate agreement in glasgow, but that it won't be easy. people who are here in milan representing some of the most vulnerable and small island nations are really concerned that we're still a long way from the trajectory of keeping global temperature increase this century to within this key threshold of 1.5 degrees celsius. we're already at a 1.1 world. we're facing increasing frequency and severity of storms and flooding. a 1.5 world is very scary to think about, especially for islands like us. and what's even scarier is that we're still not there, in terms of ambition, in terms of cutting down emissions. this vast coal mine in odisha in india, a country that still depends heavily on coal

for energy, isjust a glimpse of what a challenge it is to slash carbon emissions. but leaders here agree that meeting that challenge is now urgent. by 2030 we need to have reduced emissions globally by 45%. but what we need is everyone to come forward, and if there is a gap, we're going to have to set out how we will close this gap in this decisive decade. the true test, bringing the politics in line with the science, will be at the critical un climate conference injust one month's time. victoria gill, bbc news, milan. still to come: thousands have been marching for abortion rights in the united states, as pro life supporters could impose restrictions. fire has ravaged a honduran resort, forcing

thousands to evacuate their homes. in the uk, the feel situation is critical, according to some fuel stations but the petrol retailers' association says elsewhere it is easing and thanked the restraint of drivers. figures show that two—thirds of sites now have fuel, 16% still have none. the military is due to help deliver fuel from monday. there are more cues on monday, this is the first time they have been able to fill up. it the first time they have been able to fill up.— able to fill up. it is like christmas _ able to fill up. it is like christmas came - able to fill up. it is like j christmas came early.. able to fill up. it is like - christmas came early.. these drivers in _ christmas came early.. these drivers in newcastle - christmas came early.. these drivers in newcastle when - drivers in newcastle when having issues. h0 drivers in newcastle when having issues.— drivers in newcastle when havin: issues. ., ,, , ':::: having issues. no issues, £100 in the banner _ having issues. no issues, £100 in the banner is _ having issues. no issues, £100 in the banner is going - having issues. no issues, £100 in the banner is going for- having issues. no issues, £100 in the banner is going for a - in the banner is going for a week _ in the banner is going for a week if— in the banner is going for a week. . , . , in the banner is going for a week. . , ., , ., in the banner is going for a l week-— the week. it was really hard. the body representing _ week. it was really hard. the l body representing independent

forecourts they availability across the country has improved and it thinks about two—thirds of sites now have petrol and diesel while steam % have now ran dry but it is labelled the situation in london and the south—east as critical. the prioritisation for deliveries must now go to london and the south—east, and to the independent forecourts, which make up 65% of all forecourts across the uk. 200 military personnel, including 100 drivers, have been called in to help boost supplies. they're being trained and will start on monday. amid a shortage of hgv drivers across the economy, 5,000 visas for foreign workers had already been announced, lasting until christmas eve. that includes 300 fuel tanker drivers. now we know they will be able to start immediately, and the length of time they can stay for has been extended until the end of march. 11,700 of the visas are for food lorry drivers. they won't be able to start until later this month,

but the length of their stay has also been extended until up to the end of february. visiting leeds general infirmary today, the prime minister didn't rule out any further relaxation of the visa rules. what we have now is a system that allows us to control immigration, and that gives us flexibility. we can open up our markets if we need to, and of course we'll keep everything under review. ministers insist the fuel situation will continue to improve if people only buy what they need. even when supply levels return to normal, motorists are being told they should expect to pay more at the pump as wholesale prices rise. katy austin, bbc news. after a successful vaccination programme, some richer countries already pulling out booster shots but at the same

wuhan strain but even with their delta strain, they are still doing a good job. there are questions of availability and certainty of that in some of the vaccines, for example, some of the chinese and cuban vaccines and others, whether it is still not enough transparency in the data and either clinical trial data or either clinical trial data or either data within the population to be certain that they are as effective as other but the suspicion is that that they. that is an issue and the countries, assisted by the world need to make sure that if they are procured that they do a rightjob — — the who. and the who has significant responsibility for this. human rights watch says taliban authorities have imposed wide ranging restrictions on the media in afghanistan. it comes a day after the taliban released the afghan freelance photographer morteza samadi after 23 days in detention.

he was arrested along with a number of activists earlier this month at a protest in western herat. after being detained for three weeks, morteza samadi, a freelance photographer, has been released. he was arrested by the taliban during a protest in western herat province. the taliban accused him of activities that threatened national security and of using his social media platforms to provoke people against them. this is the moment morteza samadi was arrested. he was separated from the crowd and pushed into a government building. during an anti—taliban and anti—pakistan protest on september 7. the peaceful demonstration was dispersed by the local forces. at least two men were

killed and seven wounded. morteza was there to cover the gathering, an event he also supported on his facebook page. his family couldn't see him while he was in detention. we didn't get anything from taliban to understand why he is morteza there. after three weeks, why we are not allowed to see him. i asked the taliban chief of information and culture for herat why they are imprisoning journalists and activists. this alone has sent an alarming message to otherjournalists who want to cover stories like this. what's your reaction to that?

shortly after our interview, morteza and and activist were released as a gesture of good will, but these two journalists have not been so lucky. they were arrested while covering a protest in kabul. both were lashed and tortured and they are still recovering. media watchdog and human rights organisations have warned of a crackdown of freedom of speech, while around 154 media outlets have stopped operating since the return of the taliban. the volcano that has been erupting on the spanish island of la palma is spewing out two new streams of lava,

threatening further destruction. these are life pictures we can show you now showing red hot lava. many crops have been destroyed. hundreds of people have been forced to evacuate, since the eruption first began last month. our correspondent dan johnson is there. it seems like every day this volcano is producing more and more lava. there are more vents opening up, new ways for the lava to escape, and that means even more lava flowing downhill, putting even more homes and villages at risk. more than 1,000 properties have been destroyed now. and this is an area that has been evacuated, so there are homes here where people haven't been able to get back for more than a week now, people wondering whether they'll ever be able to come back and live here, because nobody knows how long this volcano will keep erupting. you can see the sort of ash that has spread right across this area. it's really thick, coarse stuff that covers absolutely

everything. at times you can feel it in the air, you can taste it. but it all depends on the changing wind direction, which areas are under threat and which areas are taking the gases that are escaping from there and also down at the sea as well. because when the lava hits the water there is another potential for toxic gases and lava. you can see how powerful that volcano is, how much lava and smoke is continually being produced. day and night this has gone on, and people are wondering how much more is there to come. the experts think this could last for weeks or potentially months more. hundreds of hot air balloons have taken to the sky in new mexico as the albuquerque hot air balloon return. nearly a million people will visit the

event and it is the 49th year the event has been running and brings millions of dollars to the economy.— brings millions of dollars to the economy. hello. saturday was a soaker where you are. sunday will be a much brighter day. there'll still be showers around, it's still going to be windy, but there will also be some spells of sunshine to be had as well. of course, low pressure responsible for the soaking rain, which affected some parts of the uk on saturday. for sunday it's close to northern scotland. this is where we'll start the day with the strongest winds, in the northern isles, especially shetland, gusting 60—70 mph. starting temperatures and coldest areas will be across the north of mainland scotland, some spots close to freezing as the day begins. most of the early showers are going to be in western areas. they will travel gradually further east as we go on through the day, and by the afternoon many of the showers are going to be reasonably hit and miss, though a longer spell of rain pushing back across northern scotland and the northern isles. these are average wind speeds. there'll be gusts up

to around 35—45 mph. those very strong winds in the northern isles ease a little but it remains very windy here, with gales. and as for temperatures, mostly in the range of around 12 or 13 to 17 celsius. as for the london marathon, it looks like there'll be plenty of sunshine around during the morning. into the afternoon, increasing cloud, and there will be the chance of catching a shower moving through for those who take a little longer, perhaps, to complete the course. now, as we go on into the evening the showers will continue, particularly across western areas. overnight and into monday morning there'll be a few more pushing in across south wales and southern parts of england. and as for temperatures, we may just start the day on monday a degree or so higher than on sunday morning. and monday will be another day of sunshine and showers. whilst many will be focused across western areas, some again will travel further east during the day. but it's across eastern parts you're most likely to stay dry, with some sunshine. rain gathering to the south—west as monday comes to an end, a bit of uncertainty about how quickly it's wanting to move in. but that's tied in with more weather fronts and another area of low pressure. something to play for in the detail and the position of this going into tuesday, but it's likely to bring

another spell of heavy rain and strong winds, particular into wales and england. although maybe some towards the west and the south—west clear up as the day goes on, there'll still be some strong winds and gales around. northern ireland may miss most of it. some of the rain could well push in towards the south—east of scotland. yet more wet and windy weather on the way.
