welcome, you are watching outside source. we begin with a significant blow to the islamic state group. the man in charge of its finances is captured by iraqi forces. a former deputy to the group leader killed by us special forces two years ago. important new data from the uk shows that one in six of those most critically ill of covid are pregnant women who have not received the vaccine. the eu threatens poland with retaliatory measures after a controversial court ruling. some parts of eu law incompatible with

the polish constitution. support for the polish constitution. support for the eu and poland is strong with protesters coming out in warsaw to support the country's membership. at the lodge may be delayed but william shatner still plans to boldly go where he has not gone before. we will hear from the man himself. welcome. lots coming up in this hour of outside source, stories from poland in that standoff there between the government and the eu, we will be live and talking to people in lebanon on the fuel crisis they are, but first of all recorded turn to news from iraq. because in a significant blow to the islamic state militant group, the man in charge of its finances has been captured by iraqi forces. the prime minister described his capture as a complex operation outside the country. this is the man in question, his name is samijasim and

he was a former deputy to al by daddy come at the group's leader who was killed by specialforces daddy come at the group's leader who was killed by special forces two years ago. was killed by special forces two years age-— was killed by special forces two earsauo. , , ., ., ., years ago. this is not a household name or one _ years ago. this is not a household name or one most _ years ago. this is not a household name or one most people - years ago. this is not a household name or one most people had - years ago. this is not a household i name or one most people had heard of but he was a member of the leadership council of isis, he goes by the name of sami jasim leadership council of isis, he goes by the name of samijasim and his role went far beyond that ofjust controlling the finances. he has been reportedly involved in coordinating isis activities which in the areas that operate in syria and iraq. there's no confirmation of where he was captured but we are told it was outside iraq so that could mean syria, turkey, jordan. but the fact that he has been captured alive is very unusual because normally senior members of isis blow themselves up or die in a hail of bullets. it's unusual for them to be captured alive and i

think his value to the iraqi security forces will be that of what he can tell them. rather than necessarily his loss to isis. he will be a loss to them but these people are relatively easily replaced. this guy goes way back, he was operational back in 2014 and as we mentioned earlier he worked for the previous isis leader and he has now been involved in working for the current leader of isis. but i think it's what they can get out of him if they will presumably be interrogating him about isis's current operations that matter. because they've still got thousands of operational fighters that are hiding out in remote areas and sometimes in civilian areas and carrying out regular terrorist attacks on police and government in northern iraq. they are a fraction of the problem that there were when

they held an actual caliphate. we had a physical territory than they were able to extract so—called taxes, basically extortion, they are able to get money from oil, from cotton, minerals and farming. they had a huge operation back then, they have not got that now. they are an insurgency operation which is very different. iraq is still got their major problems, onlyjust had elections yesterday. a little bit cautious about this because it comes at a time of elections and in the past certainly iraqi government figures have chosen politically opportune moments to make such announcements but the us military has endorsed this and pay tribute to security forces so that you should be taken seriously. we security forces so that you should be taken seriously.— security forces so that you should be taken seriously. we have breaking news now because _ be taken seriously. we have breaking news now because we've _ be taken seriously. we have breaking news now because we've had - be taken seriously. we have breaking news now because we've had initial. news now because we've had initial results from those of the entry elections in iraq and i could tell you that the block led by the

powerful she a cleric is in the lead. the electoral commission is still releasing results but so far appears that he has increased his representation in parliament, the party that comes first in this lecture has the right to try and appoint the next prime minister and this has in the past often taken months to achieve it. the official turnout was low in this election, 41% which makes it the lowest in the five elections held since the us—led invasion in 2003. many of the iraqis saying they did not believe the election would achieve any real change. orany election would achieve any real change. or any real reform. sojust monitoring that as it comes into the bbc. just those preliminary results first early indications coming through of course we will assess them and bring you up—to—date. but initial results suggesting that the

powerful shia cleric is currently in the lead. we are going to turn to coronavirus now, one in six critically ill coronavirus patients in england is a pregnant woman. specifically a woman who has not been vaccinated. these are the thoughts of england's top family doctor. in are the thoughts of england's top family doctor-— family doctor. in critical care we are seeing _ family doctor. in critical care we are seeing almost _ family doctor. in critical care we are seeing almost 2096 - family doctor. in critical care we are seeing almost 2096 of - family doctor. in critical care we| are seeing almost 2096 of people family doctor. in critical care we - are seeing almost 2096 of people who are seeing almost 20% of people who are seeing almost 20% of people who are having extra support, so long from a heart support on critical care being pregnant women who are on vaccinated. so the evidence is really clear. if you are not vaccinated yet and you are pregnant, please take up that life—saving offer of protection. please take up that life-saving offer of protection.— please take up that life-saving offer of protection. let's have a look at the _ offer of protection. let's have a look at the figures _ offer of protection. let's have a look at the figures from - offer of protection. let's have a look at the figures from nhs i look at the figures from nhs england, they revealed that 70% of patients receiving a treatment through a long bypass machine were unvaccinated pregnant women. pregnancy already puts tremendous

with underlying health challenges or not. and the clear message on the relief started from late spring. so given that there may have been residual reluctance amongst some expectant mums about considering the vaccine and i think that's one reason why health leaders and medical experts have really started pushing hard to the message in this latest set of announcements, that if offered the vaccine really do go ahead and have it if you are expecting a baby because of the potential consequences from covid and how ill you can become if you are not vaccinated. talk and how ill you can become if you are not vaccinated.— and how ill you can become if you are not vaccinated. talk us through the data, then. _ are not vaccinated. talk us through the data, then. the _ are not vaccinated. talk us through the data, then. the fundamental. the data, then. the fundamental study about _ the data, then. the fundamental study about the _ the data, then. the fundamental study about the heart _ the data, then. the fundamental study about the heart of- the data, then. the fundamental study about the heart of this - the data, then. the fundamental study about the heart of this is l study about the heart of this is amongst those who are more seriously ill and the most intensive form of life—support called ecmo which is in effect an artificial lung. shows the official figures betweenjuly

uk and the us, and there's no evidence they say of any damage to the foetus or the newborn child. and in terms of the risk to the mothers of being vaccinated they say that's extremely low and broadly comparable to other data for the rest of the population. and that is the message they are getting out at this stage that there is nothing that suggests there's any enhanced risk from being vaccinated but there certainly a risk of getting more seriously ill with covid and all the consequences for them other public health and being separated potentially from a newborn baby if they have had to go and have this intensive ecmo treatment. let's turn to lebanon now where a large fire erupted at an oil facility on monday morning. this is what the country remains in the grip of a severe energy crisis. the oil facility is around 50 km south of

the capital beirut. the fire broke out less than 24 hours after the facility received an emergency delivery of fuel. authorities say the fire has now been contained and there's no casualties. let's hear from an eyewitness. translation: from an eyewitness. tuna/mom- from an eyewitness. translation: .. , from an eyewitness. translation: i, ,, , translation: the facility supplies the entire south _ translation: the facility supplies the entire south and _ translation: the facility supplies the entire south and it _ translation: the facility supplies the entire south and it is _ translation: the facility supplies the entire south and it is loaded . the entire south and it is loaded with fuel and petrol. but they come of the authorities, could not decide how to do should beat them directly back — distribute them. the back - distribute them. the facility is close to the _ back - distribute them. the facility is close to the two _ back - distribute them. the facility is close to the two biggest - back - distribute them. the facility is close to the two biggest power l is close to the two biggest power plants which had to shut down because of a shortage of fuel. that led to scenes of darkness all over the country, lebanon possibly entire energy supply went down the cl’uii'li’)’. lebanon possibly entire energy supply went down for the country, lebanon possibly entire energy supply went down for 24 hours on sunday. at march a new low in the country's ongoing energy crisis. here is one restaurant owner. translation:— here is one restaurant owner. translation: . ., , translation: electricity use to be available for— translation: electricity use to be available for one _ translation: electricity use to be available for one hour _ translation: electricity use to be available for one hour during - translation: electricity use to be available for one hour during the i

let's _ plunge to new depths yet again. let's consider the broader context come up with a 200 people last year were killed for thousands more injured by an explosion at beirut public port. the disaster compounded a prolonged period of economic depression in lebanon. this report from the world bank injune this year said it captures the scale of the problem. just listen to this, the problem. just listen to this, the economic and financial crisis is likely to rank in the top ten possibly top three most severe crises episodes globally since the mid—19th century. according to the report. our correspondent is in the city of tripoli in lebanon. i would to see one family this morning who are paying for three and of power from a generator, that would only get that for half of the day, three was enough to give them one dim bulb in their one room and i have their water to pump their water up from the ground, not to heat it or anything fancy like that, just to lift up to where they were living to where the husband was in bed

us withdrawal from afghanistan. both sides have given their version of what was discussed in delhi. you will serve as edges stated that would give humanitarian assistance to afghans above provide facilities for other humanitarian organisations to deliver aid. the spokesperson says that the two sides discussed the united states public provision of robust humanitarian assistance directly to the afghan people. let's cross over to washington to speak to barbara who is monitoring the talks. a little bit nuanced in terms what both sides said, focusing on aid but talk us through of what to make of what the us said compared with the telegram said. what the us said compared with the telegram said-— what the us said compared with the telegram said. what the us has been sa in: all telegram said. what the us has been saying all along _ telegram said. what the us has been saying all along is — telegram said. what the us has been saying all along is that _ telegram said. what the us has been saying all along is that it _ telegram said. what the us has been saying all along is that it would i saying all along is that it would continue to provide humanitarian aid to afghanistan but not to the taliban government through the un and aid agencies. and one of the concerns the americans had was that the taliban provided free access for humanitarian organisations to reach

the worst hit areas that effect that was one thing that was mentioned the run—up to these talks so it does seem that they have reached some kind of agreement on humanitarian aid although as you said the comments from the state department are more fake than those of the taliban but it's interesting the taliban but it's interesting the taliban statement says of the taliban statement says of the taliban would co—operate with charitable organisations to deliver the aid and a transparent manner. they also said as you mentioned at the us would provide facilities for other humanitarian organisations to deliver aid. other humanitarian organisations to deliveraid. not other humanitarian organisations to deliver aid. not entirely clear to what that refers. but there is an issue of sanctions. the us has sanctions on the tele— band and therefore aid agencies need a waiver or exemption to deal with the tele— band. they've been calling for a general exemption given the scale and urgency of the humanitarian crisis. so for the us to talk only about specific licenses on a case—by—case basis. about specific licenses on a case-by-case basis.- about specific licenses on a case-by-case basis. what about assets, case-by-case basis. what about assets. what — case-by-case basis. what about assets, what more _ case-by-case basis. what about assets, what more detailed i case-by-case basis. what about assets, what more detailed to i case-by-case basis. what about | assets, what more detailed to be case-by-case basis. what about i assets, what more detailed to be get about the tele— band public assets?

we didn't get much more detail about that but it's an important issue because unitarian aid is only one element of the funding for afghanistan. there's income from the government and also assets. in terms of income for the government run 80% came from donors like the world bank and other governments and things like lending programmes and the imf and also use the us had bilateral assistance. that has been cut off and remains cut off. most of the us has frozen about $10 billion worth of their assets which is held by the federal reserve. faith strong indication that both these things will continue for a while because these are seen as ways to have leverage over the taliban government.— leverage over the taliban covernment. . ., ., government. and what about recognition? _ government. and what about recognition? what _ government. and what about recognition? what did - government. and what about recognition? what did we i government. and what about | recognition? what did we hear government. and what about - recognition? what did we hear about the us recognising the tele— band at the us recognising the tele— band at the government? the the us recognising the tele- band at the government?— the us recognising the tele- band at the government? the americans have been very clear _ the government? the americans have been very clear all _ the government? the americans have been very clear all along _ the government? the americans have been very clear all along that -

the government? the americans have been very clear all along that this i been very clear all along that this meeting was not about conferring legitimacy or about recognising the taliban government. they say that that has and will depend on the tele— band public actions, issues that are important to the americans like giving freedom of travel for those that want to leave afghanistan and counterterrorism and human rights. that i think will take some time. in the meantime they have said that they will have these pragmatic contacts on issues of a technical nature, not a strategic nature. the move the embassy to qatar because the taliban have a political office there is that they could be continuing. with so they had their first meeting since you with withdrawal and seems to have been a success according to what people are saying. the taliban said it went well, the state department said the talks were candid and that they were professional. and it seems that there has been some kind of channel established that will continue. $5 established that will continue. as always thanks so much for talking you through those first talks

backin amazing. lots more coming up i will back in a few moments time so do stay with us here on bbc news. overall the weather is looking fine for most of us this week with some hazy sunshine. but it has been quite cloudy in the north of scotland today. for example outbreaks of rain in the northwest highlands and hebrides. i think it's going to say fairly cloudy particularly across northern and eastern parts of the country through this week. that's because a weather front is riding around in area of high pressure which is actually sitting a little bit further towards the cell. you can see with a high pressure is, see other winds blowing around in a circularfashion's around with that this weather front which is stretching from scotland, grazing the north sea coast was up here cloudy and damp for the night. not too cold, ten or 11 degrees. where it's closer to the centre of the high pressure we have the lighter winds and clear spells, a bit of a nip in the airfirst

thing in the morning, maybe six degrees and carted. tomorrow's forecast once again that old weather front with thicker cloud and bits and pieces of rain in cooler conditions closer to the north sea coast only 12 in newcastle. in the centre of the high and with some pleasant breaks in the clouds and sunny spells up to around 17 celsius. not much changes into wednesday. the high pressure still with us here and we still have that annoyance with the weather front around. i think thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain for northern scotland but generally speaking, the middle part of the week is looking fine and settled for most of us. not clear blue sky at some decent sunny skies was up and in the sunshine temperatures may even get up as high as 18 celsius was up not a bad wednesday on the way. after that it changes a little bit because the high—pressure at least temporarily is going to slip away to the south. it will actually split. there's a high—pressure hearing high—pressure there was up in between we have a cold front linked with a low coast to scandinavia.

and look at the big change in wind direction they are. it's coming in from the north, rain ahead of it, that is introducing colder air to northern scotland. not much colder air but it certainly will be a lot lot fresher. were talking about 13 degrees there, south of that on thursday of course the bulk of the country is so bright, relatively mild as we head through the course of the week you can see by friday it's only around 10 degrees in edinburgh and then next week, this is into next week it looks as though the weather is going to turn unsettled.

support the countries membership. hello and welcome to outside source. the eu has warned that it will take retaliatory measures against poland, following a controversial court ruling which goes directly against one of the cornerstones of the european union. on thursday last week, a polish court decided that in some cases, the polish constitution supercedes eu law. here's one of the eu justice commissioners speaking today. i don't want to say no, what will be the decision of the commission about the decision of the commission about the possible ways to react. i'm sure that we will react of course like we have done in the last weeks. we have seen again we are waiting now for new decisions of the court of justice about the situation in poland. 50

governmement saying they don't want a polexit, poles don't want a polexit, why the protests? yet we see tens of thousands of polls out on the street concerned about the tribunal ruling, the constitutional tribunal what are we to make of all this?— constitutional tribunal what are we to make of all this? poland has been in a fiuht to make of all this? poland has been in a fight with _ to make of all this? poland has been in a fight with the _ to make of all this? poland has been in a fight with the european - in a fight with the european institutions for over four years now. the government has been conducting reforms which were increasingly seen as directed against rule of law and the principles that poland has signed up to a punk becoming a member state of the eu. we now seem to have entered a phase where the polish authorities not just the government a phase where the polish authorities notjust the government but a phase where the polish authorities not just the government but also a phase where the polish authorities notjust the government but also the constitutional prior to the neck tribunal and ruling powder to that party have entered into direct legal warfare with european institutions. the kind of verdict that we have seen on thursday last week is

undermining the principles of the legals of the eu notjust for bolin who signed up to membership by excepting the treaty and entering the eu at the time in 2004 and accepting that later treaties that were amended later. but also for other member states. because it gives a precedent for other countries and theirjudges and they justices and their tribunals to question some parts of new legislation which seemed to... might become problematic for other governments. it's notjust a problem for brussels and warsaw, it is a problem for brussels with the eu as a whole of that ruling that has been passed for purely domestic and political purposes in warsaw last week. hate political purposes in warsaw last week. ~ ~' ., political purposes in warsaw last week. ~ ~ ., ., political purposes in warsaw last week. ~ ., ., , . week. we know that eu “ustice commission * week. we know that eu “ustice commission and t week. we know that eu “ustice commission and acted _ week. we know that eu justice l commission and acted concerned week. we know that eu justice - commission and acted concerned about this. we've heard a little bit earlier saying about the possibility of financial retaliatory measures. but when it comes to what the polish

constitutional tribunal ruled, they talked about the supremacy of constitutional law. and this comes from the polish constitution itself was up for viewers that may be are not as ingrained in us, help us to understand how this plays out in terms of the overall tenants of what the eu in fact means, the embodiment of it. , ., ., , ., of it. the tribunal has ruled that articular of it. the tribunal has ruled that particular parts _ of it. the tribunal has ruled that particular parts or _ of it. the tribunal has ruled that particular parts or articles - of it. the tribunal has ruled that particular parts or articles of- particular parts or articles of the treaty of the european union including article one which is actually establishes the union are not compatible with poland constitution. in relation to particular decisions where based european court ofjustice has been taken over the past month. in those particular decisions relate to the rule of law and to the ways in which the polish government, polish authorities have chosen to choose

and to cherry pickjustices for different levels of the judiciary system bolin. so it's not like the polish tribunal went out saying we don't want to be part of the eu, they ruled on a particular, against particular rulings of the ec] which do not forget doing that fit with the governments agenda on controlling the judicial system in poland. it's directly related to the interests of the ruling party that same ruling party which two weeks ago has passed an internal resolution declaring that they have no intention whatsoever of bringing poland out of the eu. now the people who are claiming poland has made the first step towards pole— exit. saying that the legal decision is kind of a legal statement by paul

lynn's top court that we no longer see ourselves as part of the legal system of the eu. in that sense it might be interpreted as a first step towards pole — exit. there is no political decision on the part of the government or the opposition to exit the eu. it's actually a game of power. because what the government wants to do, he wants to anticipate the decision by the ec] which will come in the following days, which will perhaps authorise the mechanism which will give the european commission the possibility to freeze eu funds from the multi—annual year budget if poland doesn't accept the demands of the eu regarding the rule of law. this is actually a process or a measure which is directed at

this is mr compaore, he's among the accused but he is currently in exile in neighbouring ivory coast, where he fled after being forced to resign during mass protests in 2014. he denies involvement in sankara's death. 14 defendants have been charging the trial and so far 12 have been present in the trial. one of them being a general who served as a former presidents chief of staff. he was present in court today and we saw him donned in military attire as well as a doctor who was accused of holding forging documents saying he died of natural causes. some of the people who have been charged in accenture is a former president who is in exile on ivory coast as well

as a man who served as a part of his guide and he is currently on the run. he was in powerfor overfour years but he led the most radical series of reform in africa at that time. he reduces on salary and that of all his public servants. he banned the use of government so chauffeurs education was a key priority. he increased the literacy rate from 13% to 73% in just four years. he also redistributed land forfeudal years. he also redistributed land for feudal landlords and gave years. he also redistributed land forfeudal landlords and gave it directly to poor farmers. forfeudal landlords and gave it directly to poorfarmers. mister sankara have been criticised by human rights organisations. this 1986 report released by amnesty international alleged that political and form two opponents were obtained with and tortured. yet his influence on the continent was far—reaching. let's hear from some people from the country. let's hear from some people from the count . ~ ,, �* let's hear from some people from the count . ~ ,, ~ ., , country. translation:. he remains like president — country. translation:. he remains like president. what _ country. translation:. he remains like president. what he _ country. translation:. he remains like president. what he did - like president. what he did encourages us young people to do as he did _

welcome back you're watching outside so live. our main story is the man in charge of the islamic state finances has been captured by iraqi forces. he was a former deputy at the l bad daddy the british leader killed by us special forces to years ago. let's stay in iraq because annetta recapped the breaking news we had at the top of the hour coming from the country initial results from the country initial results from the country initial results from the countries parliamentary elections. they show that the block which is led by the powerful cleric coushatta is in the lead. rudy's news is reporting that the party was the biggest winner in an iraqi election on monday. increasing the number of seats that they hold in parliament. that's according to initial results. ijust stressed

that we are just getting these results within the past hours of talk us through what we do know. results have been coming in all day. there's a website, the election committee which is producing. it's not the best, it's been up and down it's been a bit unclear to find a pattern but that has really emerged in the past few hours. nothing new, to be honest with his movement named after him essentially he was expected to do well once again it had the biggest number of seats in the last election, 2018. it looks likely to get more seats than it had, around 54 last time. this time it's projected to be around 17, maybe a little bit more. still not enough to give an overall majority that still means that there will be a lot of politicaljockeying that goes on between the different parties with different alliances and producing a new parliament and most portly producing a new prime minister. asad himself said earlier

today that this time he wanted to ensure that a solders prime minister was in place was may turn out to be the case. if so to some extent it will really reinforce that many hierarchies had over the election that it really wasn't worth that much. and they didn't participate that turn out was the lowest so far there's been five elections since there's been five elections since the us invasion in 2003. this was officially at around 41%. it may have been lower, journalists are observers were saying that it seemed considerably low in most of the polling stations that they were in. i think it's worth remembering that the reason why the elections were held now rather than next year when they were scheduled was to answer one of the demands from the protest movement that erupted in 2019. almost exactly two years ago. mass movement, it is faded away to some

extent. it was one for there to be an election held sooner rather than later. also for the elect oral to be modified so that it would be more of a chance. that did happen and it looks like results coming through that independence have done comparatively well. not well in the sense that they will have a huge voice but they may be able to represent a reasonable opposition. that will at least for those who'd been calling for a reform, they been saying iraq cannot continue as is and haven't given up hope entirely late that would be the one positive that they will take from this election. �* , . , that they will take from this election. 3 . , that they will take from this election. �*, ., election. it's really good to get our election. it's really good to get your analysis — election. it's really good to get your analysis it _ election. it's really good to get your analysis it as _ election. it's really good to get your analysis it as we - election. it's really good to get your analysis it as we get - election. it's really good to get your analysis it as we get a - your analysis it as we get a clearer result. middle east regional editor for bbc thank you so much for talking us through that. for almost

almost a nervous breakdown. i believe that was in in an interview with tom doyle. he describes not getting out of bed, drinking all the time, not shaving. there is a period from 1969 to 19 70 two there is but would have to wait and listen. thank ou so would have to wait and listen. thank you so much — would have to wait and listen. thank you so much and _ would have to wait and listen. thank you so much and thank— would have to wait and listen. thank you so much and thank you - would have to wait and listen. thank you so much and thank you to - you so much and thank you to everybody watching outside source on bbc news. overall the weather is looking fine for most of us this week with some hazy sunshine. but it has been quite cloudy in the north of scotland today. for example outbreaks of rain in the northwest highlands and hebrides. i think it's going to say fairly cloudy particularly across northern and eastern parts of the country through this week. that's because a weather front is riding around an area of high pressure which is actually sitting a little bit further towards the cell. ——south you can see with a high pressure is, see other winds blowing

around in a circularfashion's around with that this weather front which is stretching from scotland, grazing the north sea coast was up here cloudy and damp for the night. not too cold, ten or 11 degrees. where it's closer to the centre of the high pressure we have the lighter winds and clear spells, a bit of a nip in the airfirst thing in the morning, maybe six degrees. tomorrow's forecast once again that old weather front with thicker cloud and bits and pieces of rain in cooler conditions closer to the north sea coast only 12 in newcastle. in the centre of the high and with some pleasant breaks in the clouds and sunny spells up to around 17 celsius. not much changes into wednesday. the high pressure still with us here and we still have that annoyance with the weather front around. i think thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain for northern scotland but generally speaking, the middle part of the week is looking fine and settled for most of us. not clear blue sky at some decent sunny spells and in the sunshine temperatures may even get up as high as 18 celsius was up not a bad wednesday on the way.

after that it changes a little bit because the high—pressure at least temporarily is going to slip away to the south. it will actually split. there's a high—pressure here and a high—pressure there was up in between we have a cold front linked with a low coast to scandinavia. and look at the big change in wind direction there. it's coming in from the north, rain ahead of it, that is introducing colder air to northern scotland. not much colder air but it certainly will be a lot lot fresher. we're talking about 13 degrees there, south of that on thursday of course the bulk of the country is so bright, relatively mild as we head through the course of the week you can see by friday it's only around 10 degrees in edinburgh and then next week, this is into next week it looks as though the weather is going to turn unsettled.
