in the crowd was injecting other people with drugs. this report from simonjones contains flashing images. a concert venue that's become a crime scene. shortly after this footage was taken, the crowd, made up of 50,000 people, began to surge towards the stage. it's not clear why. the dead are aged between 1a and 27. police say they are determined to find answers for the families of those who lost their lives. i will tell you, one of the narratives was that some individual was injecting other people with drugs. we do have a report of a security officer, according to the medical staff that was out and treated him last night, that he was reaching over to restrain or grab a citizen and he felt a prick in his neck. when he was examined, he went unconscious. the security arrangements are also being looked into. there had been chaotic scenes the gates opened at the start of the event. no—one, no parent, no friend, no sibling should see their loved one off to a concert

by a world—renowned artist and not be able to expect them to come home safely. flowers have been laid to mark the lives lost. i just want to send out prayers to the...to the ones that was lost last night. we're actually working right now to identify the families so we can help assist them through this tough time. and festival—goers are left trying to make sense of what happened. oh, man, there wasjust so many people there, it felt like a million people there at once, people just passing out and you could barely catch a breath. it'sjust sad. everyone should go to a concert to have fun, this shouldn't happen. the organisers say they are committed to working with officials to find out what went wrong. simon jones, bbc news. security officials in iraq say the prime minister, mustafa al—khadimi, has survived a drone attack. they said rockets from the drone

sajid javid, is urging eligible people to get their covid booster injections as part of a "national mission" to avoid restrictions over christmas. according to government figures, almost ten million people in the uk have had a top—up jab so far. 0ur political correspondent ione wells is here. the message from the health secretary as this is a national mission to get everybody to get the booster jab to avoid mission to get everybody to get the boosterjab to avoid any further restrictions before christmas and the good news is 10 million have taken up that third boosterjab and there are 20% of over 80s haven't had the booster and 40% of over 50s. currently the booster is open to everybody over the also key health and social workers and people over 16 with health conditions. the message from the government today ties into the wider strategy of personal responsibility. the government has faced some

pressure to move to the so—called plan b for winter and autumn which would include further restrictions like the use of face coverings are vaccine passports in england to access certain venues. the government is adamant to stick to that plan a at the moment which is putting the emphasis on personal responsibility and getting the boosterjab responsibility and getting the booster jab which responsibility and getting the boosterjab which is something english health secretary has called on people to do today. most of the data suggests while coronavirus cases in the uk are high they are starting to fall slightly with concern around the rise in certain groups are being schoolchildren, most of whom are still unvaccinated given their age but also potentially some worries around cases involving certain vulnerable groups in that issue the government is pushing to get the boosterjab given that we know immunity can win months after getting the first and second doses.

on abortion to be scrapped. poland is one of the most devoutly catholic countries in europe. courtney bembridge has this report. chanting, "not one more," tens of thousands of protesters marched to the health ministry in warsaw after the death of a pregnant woman reignited the debate over the country's strict abortion laws. it's been a year since poland's constitutional court ruled in favour of a near—total ban on abortion. protesters are highlighting the recent case of a 30—year—old woman who died halfway through her pregnancy. herfamily says doctors had been aware of severe foetal defects but refused to perform an abortion while the foetus still had a heartbeat, fearing repercussions. this is what we call the �*frozen effect'. that the doctors will be afraid to perform abortions so, in theory, abortion is legal in poland now, under the premise that a woman's life and health is in danger, but in theory we see many cases when the doctors wait until the last moment and they are afraid because they know they will be

facing legal charges. translation: iza said to a woman in the hospital room, "i want to live, "i have someone to live for. "i don't want to die." iza did not receive help because she was pregnant, because the heart of the foetus was still beating. the polish government denies the law is to blame and says an investigation is under way into the two doctors involved but these protesters claim there are similar cases happening right across the country and they say there will be many more unless the ban is scrapped. courtney bembridge, bbc news. the british prime minister is urging countries at the cop26 climate summit in glasgow to "pull together and drive for the line," as the conference enters its second and final week. borisjohnson said �*bold compromises�* and �*ambitious commitments�* were needed

to tackle climate change. 0ur political correspondent chris mason reports. it is half time of the climate summit. the people most affected by climate change are no longer some imagined future generation but young people alive today. perhaps that will give us the impetus we need to rewrite our story. to turn this tragedy into a triumph. in the first week, familiar faces strolling the glasgow stage. big numbers, big promises and faraway dates, but some optimism from the government. i think always when you have a multilateral event like this, to try to get agreement, there is going to be a lot of work and diplomacy to get an outcome.

i�*m talking to people here at this conference have been pretty much to every cop since it began and they are telling me at this one, they are actually seeing action, they are seeing things take shape in a way they�*ve not seen before. so what has been achieved so far? ministers point to new commitments to net—zero carbon emissions by the middle of the century, meaning 90% of the world economy is covered, ending and reversing deforestation with more than 120 countries signed up, and over 100 countries have agreed to cut their methane emissions by 30% by 2030. but there are plenty, including campaigner greta thunberg, who think this is nowhere near enough. this is no longer a climate conference, this is now a global north greenwash festival, a two—week—long celebration of business as usual and blah blah blah. they cannot ignore the scientific consensus and, above all, they cannot ignore us, the people, including their own children. the big aim of this conference is to

limit the global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees compared with pre—industrial times, to minimise the impact of climate change, but this is a huge challenge. it is complicated and it is difficult, involving around 200 countries, each with their own other priorities and concerns. and so the second week begins. the search for compromise, agreement and promises continues. chris mason, bbc news. well, as we just heard, world leaders have been accused of being all talk and no action this week, but one country decided to illustrate the impact of climate change a different way. this is the foreign minister of tuvalu — a tiny pacific nation that�*s under threat from rising sea levels. he recorded a message for cop26 while knee deep in the ocean. the images have been widely shared on social media.

i�*m joined now by asher minns, executive director, tyndall centre for climate change research. and let�*s speak to sharon george, senior lecturer at keele university. there i divergent views on how much has been achieved. can you tell us the difference between 1.5 celsius increase in temperature change and two degrees, what it looks like. good morning. we are already atjust over one degree of average global warming which is increased byjust over one degree already so you can imagine that another a degrees to 1.5 degrees is not very far to go but we still see impacts of climate change that we are seeing already, floods and droughts and continued

sea—level rise and with two degrees, effectively it gets worse. including looking at it from how many people are exposed to things like flood and drought and high temperatures and so there is a significant difference between 1.5 degrees and two degrees and i think it�*s very important that we look at that, people who are affected by that, mostly people from poorer countries from the global south then only as a temperature impact on natural causes, and what is going on in the environment. sharon george, from what you have heard of the conference so far, is limiting the temperature increase to 1.5 celsius still an attainable goal? sign that i�*m quite sceptical

deforestation by 2030. more than 100 countries signing up to cutting methane emissions, more than a0 countries committing to shift away from coal in the uk. large firms being encouraged to work towards the uk 2050 net seal target. there have been those agreements but in terms of the scale of what is needed, how far away as that from what you think needs to be done? it is far away as that from what you think needs to be done?— needs to be done? it is still a very lona needs to be done? it is still a very long way- — needs to be done? it is still a very long way- there — needs to be done? it is still a very long way. there have _ needs to be done? it is still a very long way. there have been - needs to be done? it is still a very i long way. there have been analyses done this week and maybe they have been done a little bit quickly. i think sometimes in science and research we need to be a bit more measured and really work out what the numbers mean. so it is obviously brilliant to have long—term pledges, cuts in emissions and deforestation and methane like you are talking about. those are long—term cuts.

what actually we need short—term cuts, cuts now, not cuts in a few decades time or longer. and that will be one of the things to be discussed in this coming week very much. the short—term action. because actually it is in the short—term action, you cannotjust keep kicking it down the road to another government sometime in the future, need that. we were just kidding about where we are now and where we are a temperatures, it is what happens now and in the next decade, the result of playfulness decade. sharon george, what would you like to hear from the conference next week? i to hear from the conference next week? ., ~' to hear from the conference next week? ., ~ ., , ., to hear from the conference next week? ., 4' ., , ., week? i would like to see more solid lans week? i would like to see more solid plans around — week? i would like to see more solid plans around at _ week? i would like to see more solid plans around at the _ week? i would like to see more solid plans around at the detail. _ week? i would like to see more solid plans around at the detail. we - week? i would like to see more solid plans around at the detail. we have l plans around at the detail. we have seen promises before, we have seen failures— seen promises before, we have seen failures to _ seen promises before, we have seen failures to meet pledges and i would like to— failures to meet pledges and i would like to see _ failures to meet pledges and i would like to see more cooperation. it isn't _ like to see more cooperation. it isn't a _ like to see more cooperation. it isn't a level— like to see more cooperation. it isn't a level playing field and that isn't a level playing field and that is the _ isn't a level playing field and that is the whole point this conference

isn�*t the last chance and i think all of these conferences, these climate change conferences every year, this is number 26, and this is part of a big, big process that is slow—moving but it is moving much faster than it has been, and all of these conferences tend to get toted as last chance but when you have been to as many as i have the can all be last chance. so i think we have to bear that in mind, that this is 190 or so countries trying to agree something and people are working very hard in the diplomacy and negotiation so they have to move quickly and there is a door that is open and we need to rush into the store and take advantage of it. but for most of those years that that door was closed so i think we have

to be optimistic but at the same time not expect unrealistic outcomes from cops, it is a un process and it does need to speed up.— does need to speed up. sharon, is there a danger— does need to speed up. sharon, is there a danger that _ does need to speed up. sharon, is there a danger that goes - does need to speed up. sharon, is there a danger that goes over- does need to speed up. sharon, is there a danger that goes over the | there a danger that goes over the heads of people when the figures are so huge and the target so far away. 0n so huge and the target so far away. on one hand people are saying great progress and then we have environmentalists like greta thunberg seeing it is a green wash conference. it is difficult to know how much has been achieved in concrete terms of what difference it will make and what the requirements will make and what the requirements will be in each of us going forward and what difference it will make to our lives. i and what difference it will make to our lives. ., and what difference it will make to our lives. ~' ., our lives. i think the word complexity _ our lives. i think the word complexity was _ our lives. i think the word | complexity was mentioned our lives. i think the word - complexity was mentioned earlier our lives. i think the word _ complexity was mentioned earlier and that captures us. we are asking nations— that captures us. we are asking nations that depend on fossil fuels for their— nations that depend on fossil fuels for their society to function to

dangerous overtaking and reckless speeding — shocking dashcam footage released by north yorkshire police shows how some people have been driving carelessly since lockdown rules were lifted. the force says standards on the roads have started to slip as more motorists get back behind the wheel again, as ian white reports. the terrifying moment a camper van pulls out to overtake and drives towards oncoming traffic. just one example of careless and inconsiderate driving on north yorkshire�*s roads. it�*s these kind of incidents which can easily lead to a crash and all too often, these can be fatal. with more of us having dash cams in our vehicles, more frightening incidents are being sent to the police. the driver overtaking the lorry is met by a car heading straight towards them on the wrong side of the road.

now the way the dash cam technology works, it is very high quality so if we can see a registration plate, if we can identify vehicle, we can prosecute people and we have certainly done that. with so many deaths and serious injuries and north yorkshire�*s roads, release of launched 0peration boundary, flooding the roads around harrogate and rippon with marked and unmarked patrol cars, bikes and camera vans. as we�*ve come out of covud and restrictions have lifted what we�*ve seen lots of driving where we think drivers are a little bit rusty, and out of practice and driving standards have really fallen. we�*ve seen lots of things come in through dash cams driving, more so than me ever have before. we�*ve just had a vehicle come through, it�*s shown as uninsured so it a priority for us today. we need it stopped. out and about they were quickly finding offences being committed and dealing with them robustly. what we�*re doing today, we are dealing with a number of offences and having a zero—tolerance policy

on any traffic offences. in a first for north yorkshire, the roads policing unit is being beefed up with special constablesjoining regular offices, all trying to cut the number of deaths on the roads. ijust implore people to just think about the driving and drive a little bit more safely and more considerately in future. it�*s the police officers who have to deal with the aftermath of road collisions, and a careless few seconds of bad driving can have implications that last a lifetime. ian white, bbc news. archaeologists excavating the roman site of pompeii in italy have announced the discovery of a room used by slaves. the room contains three beds and a wooden chest. pompeii�*s director has called the room one of the most exciting discoveries of his life. pompeii was covered in lava from mount vesuvius, when it erupted in 79ad.

a fair bit of cloud and one or two showers and showers will continue in the far north of scotland but away from that, central and southern scotland, parts of eastern england, seeing the best of the sunny breaks of the afternoon. the best of the sunny even although winds are easing down north and eastern areas still a bit of a blustery wind coming in from a north—westerly direction so it will feel fresher. it does feel fresher there compared with yesterday afternoon, so temperatures down a couple of degrees. although nine degrees to 13 celsius around the average for this stage in november. this evening and overnight those winds continue to fall lighter and with clear skies around, cooler air in place, there will be a frost in parts. parts of scotland, central and eastern england, maybe east wales where you see the best of the breaks is where temperatures could drop low enough for that frost to form. further west cloud will increase, that could be patchy rain

and drizzle round western course, certainly cloudiest and mildest in northern ireland to begin monday morning�*s commute and that is because you�*re closer to these weather fronts which weather fronts which pull their way and link to a pretty lively low pressure system moving towards iceland. further south a ridge of high pressure holds on so staying dry here. the best of the morning sunshine across central and eastern areas. all areas will see cloud increase through the day, greyer skies in the west, northern ireland, rain for the morning, into the afternoon good parts of scotland, north—west england, north and west wales. further south and east are staying dry through the day. a little bit cool after the chilly start, ten or 15 degrees out towards northern ireland. that milder air pushes to the south as we go through and tuesday. the weather fronts lingers across the central swathe of the country and links back into this next one which will work in. we will see some rain at times, not a desperately wet week but that is where the front will separate, milder air in the south, cooler

conditions in the north and that cooler air will gradually win out as we go towards the end of the week and next weekend but for the time being temperatures at if not a little bit above the average at this stage in november but as i said midweek rain, mainly across some central areas. see you soon. this is bbc news. the headlines... police in houston open a criminal investigation into the texas music festival crowd surge that left
