sarah corker, bbc news, in birmingham. one of the world's most wanted drug lords has been captured in colombia, in what's seen as the most significant arrest since pablo escobar. hundreds of special forces troops were involved in the operation to seize dairo antonio usuga — known as otoniel, who'd been hiding out in thejungle. colombia's president says it's the biggest blow to drug trafficking for three decades. the facebook whistleblower frances haugen will give evidence to mps tomorrow on government plans for social media regulation. the american data scientist worked at facebook for two years, and today met the campaigner, ian russell, whose 14—year—old daughter, molly, took her own life after viewing disturbing content on instagram, which is owned by facebook. angus crawford has more.

she's the former facebook insider who revealed its most closely guarded secrets. 14—year—old molly russell... he's the father who lost his daughter to suicide. now campaigning to protect other children online. nice to meet you. today they met for the first time. so what do you think the impact of molly's story was on instagram as a platform and how it approaches safety? facebook is full of kind, conscientious, well—meaning people. the real question is around, can we as a public change the incentives such that it makes more sense for facebook to invest more money in safety on instagram? so i'm sure that molly's... the experience that molly had, caused them to look at these questions more. at the same time, we need way more invested in this, because we need to make more progress faster. one of the things that lead us to find out more about molly was some notes that she'd left that were found after she died. and in one of them she wrote,

"i keep a lot to myself and it keeps building up inside. you get addicted to it and you don't even realise you've spun out of control. you're living in a trap, in a circle." what's so dangerous about having children under the age of 16, under the age of 18, using systems like instagram, is that facebook�*s own research shows that a startlingly high fraction of them exhibit what is known as "problematic use," which means that they can't regulate their own usage of the product. it's kind of like cigarettes in that way. and they know it's hurting their fiscal health, their schoolwork or their employment. —— their physical health. as time goes on, as a parent bereaved by the suicide of his 14—year—old, i look at a huge corporation with massive resources and say, there must be more you can be doing. unquestionably facebook could be investing more resources in making the platforms safer. they have made a series of choices to prioritise profits over people. what do you think regulators can do

to persuade those big, big tech companies to behave differently? i think on the most basic level, right now there is no company in the world that has as much power as facebook and as little transparency. frances, thank you so much. faced look —— facebook believes the testimony gives a false picture of the company a whistle—blower and campaigner with one aim — to make social media a safer place. angus crawford, bbc news. now, with all the sport, here's lizzie greenwood—hughes at the bbc sport centre. thanks, clive. good evening. we're starting with the huge premier league match going on at old trafford where manchester united are being beaten 5—0 by arch rivals liverpool. mo salah scored a hat—trick — making the most of defensive frailties.

united were 4—0 down at half time, the first time in their history in the premier league. well, earlier — west ham moved into the top four after beating tottenham. our correspondent nestor mcgregor reports on spurs�* fourth london derby defeat of the season. the significance of this one, two teams who knew that three points would be enough to secure a place in the top four. in keeping with tradition, bubbles were aplenty, although it was a first half which failed to blow anyone away. west ham had the first effort of the game. acrobatic but comfortably so. minutes later, tottenham felt they should have had a penalty after a player went down. the video ruled no fail. and just after the break, harry kane, playing his 250th league game, beat the defender but couldn't beat the keeper. in the second half, both teams we need to show fight, at

times literally. aaron cresswell put his left foot in. michelle antonio stuck his right foot out. the jamaican international celebrated by shaking it all about. the happy hammers in the table. nestor mcgregor, bbc news. so, confirmation of that result. and in the other early game, leicester beat brentford. rangers are back on top of the scottish premiership. alfredo morelos scored his 100th goal for the champions as they fought—back from a goal down to beat st mirren 2—1. pakistan and india's opening game in the t20 world cup is living—up to expectations as cricket's biggest rivals go head to head. favourites india had a scare in the opening few overs, but captain kohli hit a half century as they made 151—7. pakistan are chasing them down, currently 52 without loss in dubai. in the other match,sri lanka beat bangladesh.

—— currently 73 without loss in dubai. in the other match,sri lanka beat bangladesh. great britain's katie archibald has won herfourth medal of this week's track cycling world championships, taking silver in the points race today by winning the last two sprints. the olympic champion has also won a gold and two bronze medals at the event in france. saracens had their second big win in a row in rugby union's premiership, this time thrashing wasps 56— 15. they were all over a weakened wasps side. and max malins was the star again — scoring four of the eight tries — to add to his hat—trick from last weekend. there's more on the bbc sport website, including the build—up to tonight's us grand prix, where title rivals max verstappen and lewis hamilton start first and second on the grid — will they clash again? but that's it from me. back to you, clive. that's it. there's more throughout the evening on the bbc news channel, and i'll be back with the late news at ten. now, on bbc one, time for the news where you are.

you're watching bbc news. here's a story to make your legs hurt. imagine riding a bike at nearly 35 miles per hour, consistently, for a full hour. that's what alex dowsett is planning to do when tries to break a world record in mexico next month. he's also using the opportunity to raise awareness of haemophilia, which he's had since childhood. james burridge has been to see him in training. this is the giant windtunnel which gb cyclist alex dowsett hopes will help him become a world recordholder. he is training for the one hour record, cycling as fast and as far as possible in 60 minutes. so every technical scientific advantage gained in here is critical. basically air is pulled through here, my bike and me are on a large—scale and that measures how much wind resistance i'm creating. we are optimising helmets,

shoes and, most importantly, the skin suit to make me as aerodynamic as possible so i am as slippery as possible through the wind, which means, come the end of the attempt, the last 20 or 30 minutes, i can accelerate a bit and try not to just break the record but try to break it by a bit more. alex is racing to raise awareness of haemophilia, a disorder where blood doesn't clot properly. he was diagnosed as a child and is the only known elite sportsperson with the condition. there are some aspects to it that are really quite unpleasant. it is something we are trying to address with little bleeders to navigate kids through school and in conjunction with the app, to navigate young haemophiliacs and their families and their friends as well because it's a tough condition to explain. it is not visual. that doesn't help either. he used to bruise very easily,

large bruisesjust from holding him up around his middle. pretty much had to find out what haemophilia ? having a haemophiliac really meant. we were educated and we also had to know what his limitations were, the dos and don'ts. there were quite a lot of don'ts. we adjusted as best as we could. every time even now we get a phone call and if he's on tour you get a phone call at 1am or 2am, we are worried because it means he's got a problem ? he has crashed or pulled out or something. every time he races it is nerve wracking. i have to take my intravenous injection medication every day during races, but it is managed. that is where haemophilia is now compared to where it was, we can do these things. it doesn't hold me back at all.

that is the overriding message ? if it doesn't hold me back in actually what ends up being quite a dangerous sport at times, it shouldn't hold a kid back at school. alex has to race over—55 kilometres to beat the record in mexico on november the third. he has held it once before in 2015 only for sir bradley wiggins to quickly usurp it. this time there is no shortage of motivation. time for a look at the weather. hello. it's been a brighter day out there for many of us. either side of a weather system that has brought some rain into parts of wales and is spreading east across england. ahead of it in essex, there has been some blue sky, but it is east anglia and south—east england on the weather front. although it is weakening, there is a chance of some splashes of rain for a time this evening before it clears away. behind it, the clearer weather has moved in. there are showers around and that is how things are looking as we get on through the evening

and into tonight. it is clear spells and areas of showers mainly in the west, but some will push further east as the night goes on. it is breezy out there and temperatures just dipping a little bit lower, so more spots just getting down into single figures by the morning. for monday, then, it is a day of sunshine and showers, the greater chance of catching these will be in the west, especially here into western scotland, some along southern coastal counties of england, the heaviest places, a chance of hail and thunder. and a few showers willjust push inland and east as the day goes on. not everyone will catch them and most of the day is going to be dry rather than wet with sunny spells around. still a noticeable breeze. it will feel a touch fresher out there. and it will be cooler on monday night, as some spots dip down into mid or even low single figures, especially across southern areas of the uk where the winds are light and skies are clear. we are going to see the winds pick up again in northern ireland as we get rain moving in overnight and into tuesday morning, and by the morning, that'll be into western parts of scotland. and that is from another area of low pressure which, from tuesday,

and for several days, is going to park itself to the west of the uk and around it there will be a weather front wriggling around northern and western areas with outbreaks of rain at times, rain totals mounting in the wettest spots from that rain, with the risk of disruption as a result. so this is how tuesday is looking. that first spell of rain pulls away from northern ireland, across scotland, through northern england, maybe fringing north wales and the north midlands, it's turning breezier across the uk. plenty of cloud in the north and west, some drizzle in places too, central and eastern england, with some sunny spells. central and eastern areas, here of england, will stay dry for much of the week ahead. but again, that weather front will continue to bring some outbreaks of rain across parts of scotland, northern ireland, northern england and wales before clearing away on friday as it moves in towards central and eastern parts of england. whether you see the rain, though, or stay dry for much of the week, it's mild or very mild.

this is bbc news the headlines at six. labour is urging ministers to bring in plan b measures to tackle covid in england, including advice to work from home and compulsory masks. warning that the vaccine roll—out is losing traction. warning that the vaccine roll—out is losing traction. we need to do more to get on top of this virus, protector national service and stop more stringent measures of being having to be introduced further down the line. the chancellor promises a budget that invests in �*infrastructure, innovation and skills�* as the economy recovers from the pandemic. strong investment in public services, driving economic growth by investing in infrastructure, innovation and skills, giving businesses confidence and then supporting working families. eight people have been arrested in brentwood in essex after the deaths of two teenage boys in the early hours of this morning. and, the facebook whistleblower, frances haugen meets ian russell,
