and, with a bit of luck, a hen harrier will be a common sight in the high peak in the future. conservationists say we are a step closer to establishing a sustainable population of this bird of prey. yunus mulla, bbc news. time for a look at the weather. here's sarah keith lucas. some rain in the forecast, places that could really do with some rain, there will be some downpours. but it might call come at one time over a short space of time, we could see some localised flooding. this afternoon, a real mix out there, for some of us, beautiful sunshine, other areas stuck underneath a band of cloud with some outbreaks of rain and its still feeling quite warm and humid out there, especially parts

south—east england and east anglia. what we have, we have this waving weather fronts, what we have, we have this waving weatherfronts, that what we have, we have this waving weather fronts, that is the dividing line between that warm and humid air in the south—east and the fresh conditions for the north—west. if you are stuck underneath that are slow moving front today, it's probably quick pretty cloudy. areas like south—west england, wales, up to was east yorkshire for instance, outbreaks of rain under this waterfront, eitherside outbreaks of rain under this waterfront, either side of that, more sunshine breaking through the rest of the afternoon. a bit breezy across the north, pressure conditions and ten which is about 15 to 22 degrees in the north and but further south and east we are looking at the mid to high 20s, we could even see 30 celsius this afternoon. as we head through the evening hours, this initial band of rain will start to become a little lighter, bit more patchy, during the second half of the night, that is when our attention turns to be south—east of england and east anglia as heavy, potential thundery downpours are set to roll in from the south, cleary conditions elsewhere, bit of pressure night to

come for northern ireland and scotland as well, but still quite muqqy scotland as well, but still quite muggy and humid, 17 degrees or so across the south—east of england, facing tomorrow. let's take a look at these heavy thundery downpours. move in from the english channel over kent and norfolk and this is where we could see some localised flooding as that heavy rain arrives on the dry ground. it will ease away during the first half of the afternoon and then for the rest of the uk are largely dry day with some sunshine around, perhaps the odd isolated shower in the far north—west. all in less humid conditions with tempted around to 15 to 24 conditions with tempted around to 15 to 2a degrees on thursday. into friday, another weak weather front here, that results out as it moves east, will bring some showers on friday, particularly across northern and western parts of the uk, whereas further south and east you are more likely to stay dry again on the friday. light winds and in sunshine quite pleasant with temperatures not quite pleasant with temperatures not quite as warm as they have been bet up quite as warm as they have been bet up to the mid 20s for some of us. i

had, bank holiday weekend for some of us, high pressure is going to be building so lots of dry weather in the forecast for the next couple of days. let's return to our top story this lunchtime — and detectives investigating the murder of nine—year—old 0livia pratt—korbel on monday night have arrested a man, who was suspected to have been the target of the shooting. that's all from the bbc news at 0ne pm. good afternoon, it's 1:30pm and here's your latest sports news. a month after winning the women's euros, attention for england is already turning to the world cup qualifiers and sarina wiegman has named her squad this morning to face austria and luxembourg. chloe kelly — who scored the winner in the final — misses out through injury, as does fran kirby, whilst

jill scott and ellen white have retired in the last couple of days too. goalkeeper hannah hampton also misses out. she's replaced by manchester city's sandy mciver, who'll provide backup to mary earps and ellie roebuck. jordan nobbs and katie zelem are recalled in midfield, whilst chelsea's laurenjames and houston's ebony salmon are brought in — having missed out in the summer. there's a huge night ahead for rangers as they bid to reach the champions league group stage for the first time in a decade. they're in the netherlands to face psv eindhoven in the second leg of their playoff, with the tie finely poised at 2—2. they will be without striker alfredo morelos. the colombian — who was sent off for the eighth time in his rangers career at the weekend — wasn't at training and has been left out of their squad for fitness and attitude reasons. senior players are believed to be in support of the decision. i just think a fit and firing alfredo for us is one of the most important players in the team.

until he gets back to that i don't think he is helping us as much as he can do. he has had a massive injury, probably the first bad injury he has had in his career and it has taken some time to come back from that but we need him to be fit and ready as much as possible because he is one of the best players in this team. it's ukraine's independence day, but six months to the day since the start of the russian invasion, there are no public events in the capital kyiv. 0n the sporting front though, a tiny semblance of normality has returned as the ukrainian premier league resumed for the first time since last season was cancelled back in february. games are being played behind closed doors in kyiv, and elsewhere in the west of the country. the first game between shakhtar donestsk and metalist 1925 took place yesterday afternoon — finishing goalless — and shakthar captain taras stepanenko says he hopes the match gave his country something to enjoy in these challenging times. we have conversations about the situation, what do we do if they

happened. 0urfamilies were situation, what do we do if they happened. 0ur families were afraid about the situation. but yesterday everything was good, very good match. a good atmosphere and the page is unbelievable. we played good football. so everybody is happy and so i can say that football and we can move forward. the second test. matthew robinson hasn't played since... he the second test. matthew robinson hasn't played since. . ._ hasn't played since... he took nine wickets in sussex's _ hasn't played since... he took nine wickets in sussex's recent - hasn't played since... he took nine wickets in sussex's recent county | wickets in sussex's recent county championship with nottinghamshire and then impressed the onlooking coach as he took five wickets in a match for the england lions against

earlier detective chief superintendent mark kameen, gave an update on the case. this morning, merseyside police and indeed yesterday evening took the decision that the target of the discharge, the man i spoke about in the press conference who was chased down the street and forced entry into olivia and cheryl's home address has now been recalled on licence and that has taken place with immediate effect. so that man is now under arrest, albeit he's still receiving medical treatment at this time. i hope that this shows again merseyside police's approach around this terrible and tragic crime, that it will actually take enforcement action against the target of that shooting. and itjust reinforces that message to our communities that we will do everything possible to keep them safe at this terrible time. they may be questioned in the community about how and why this guy was released, can you go into any of that? $5 was released, can you go into any of that? �* , , was released, can you go into any of that? a, i, was released, can you go into any of that? i, , , , that? as per yesterday because my conference i _ that? as per yesterday because my conference i have _ that? as per yesterday because my conference i have to _ that? as per yesterday because my conference i have to be _ that? as per yesterday because my conference i have to be as - that? as per yesterday because my conference i have to be as open - that? as per yesterday because my conference i have to be as open as| that? as per yesterday because my| conference i have to be as open as i can, did you constable adopted the

same position as well. at this moment in time that is the only information i can get, there are a number of moving parts and i hope everybody can appreciate. but we do want to make sure that people are as up—to—date with the latest of elements as we possibly can and that is all we can give at this stage. are you able to talk about the names that are reportedly... 0r are you able to talk about the names that are reportedly... or the one name that has been a reportedly given to police? we name that has been a reportedly given to police?— given to police? we appealed yesterday _ given to police? we appealed yesterday for _ given to police? we appealed yesterday for information - given to police? we appealedl yesterday for information from given to police? we appealed - yesterday for information from our communities, i spoke directly and said the police can't solve this by themselves, it has to be done in partnership with the community, i'm delighted to say the community has come forward, i... we are receiving names and information, people are telling us where they were and what areas they were in which is absolutely fantastic, i can't come again, go into any detail around those names and clearly we have to do some work around the names that are being given to us but people are starting to come forward with some names this is fantastic stuff i would like to just reiterate what i

said yesterday, if you are out there and you are unsure about whether you should give information and may you are listening to this interview and think i don't need to give them my information, please come forward, we need everybody to come forward and we need everybody to stand united, standby site, to identify those responsible, gain the evidence and bring them tojustice. responsible, gain the evidence and bring them to justice. these individuals need to go to jail and they need to go to to jail for a very, very long time. can they need to go to to “ail for a very, very long time._ they need to go to to “ail for a very, very long time. can you 'ust comment on �* very, very long time. can you 'ust comment on the i very, very long time. can you 'ust comment on the engagementh very, very long time. can you just comment on the engagement of i very, very long time. can you just - comment on the engagement of police with relation to the incident? in this moment in time i can't comment any further around other than the fact that he has been recalled on licence. ajust fact that he has been recalled on licence. a just qualify, fact that he has been recalled on licence. ajust qualify, i'm not trying to give things back, we can't release absolutely everything at this time. ., this time. there are huge investigations _ this time. there are huge investigations working . this time. there are huge | investigations working not this time. there are huge - investigations working not only on this matter but on the two of murders... how proactive a

about. this is in effect, merseyside police baring its teeth, so our serious and organised crime elements have decided to bare their teeth last week. but we are doing ours now and partly it's about reassuring the communities that we are on the front about keeping them safe, we are proactive, hard edged and we will take the fight to the criminals. we just want to reinforce the message that this behaviour is not acceptable in any way, shape or form and we will do everything we can to suppress it, disrupt it and lock up the people who are responsible, so much of the activity is in response to some of the murder inquiry as we have ongoing at the moment, but some of the activity is purely disruption as well. what i would say and want to reiterate strongly, is i spoke about merseyside police have been relentless in their response, i also spoke about this being... merseyside police isn't a sled, this hasn't jerked us into some kind of activity, what we have been doing is

day out, day in, week in, week out activity. what you are seeing now is us putting even more resources in and we are just increasing the volume, not the type of activity, this is daily business for us. now wejust are ramping up its up further. as i said earlier, we will show our teeth. an eu agency has warned that europe is on course for its worst drought in at least 500 years. in a new report, the global drought 0bservatory says two thirds of the continent is under some form of alert. gareth barlow has more details. from increasingly empty reservoirs, to rivers, the drought in europe is gripping almost the entire continent and for 15 countries, including france, spain and ireland, the uk and moldova, the situation continues to get worse. 47% of the territory remains in drought warning and this means precipitation has been less unusual

and soil moisture is in deficit, 17% is in alert condition. from distribution issues from drinking water is in france to rising numbers in wildfires and warnings of risk of keeping nuclear power stations cool, the report warns almost all of europe's rivers has tried to some extent and as the rains fail to fall, the harvests are also falling, putting further pressure on rising prices and the cost of living. according to scientists, it remains warmer and drier in the western regions until november and it appears to be the worst, at least in 500 years. as the summer slowly slips by, the warning is that autumn will not bring an instant reprieve meaning reservoirs like this one in spain are not expected to fill any time soon. gareth barlow, bbc news. let's take a look now at what's making

the news across the uk. the thames water hosepipe ban is now in force affecting millions of people in london and the south—east of england. it's the latest water company to introduce a ban in england and wales. if you live in an area with a band you can't use a hose pipe in your car. those found to have breached the rules could be found up to £1000. 0ur environment correspondent has been answering some of you as questions about what you can and can't do. hosepipe ban reduces demand by about 5% and what it means is that if you are a thames water customer, then you will not be able to use one of these. a hosepipe, to what in your garden, to clean your windows or clean your car. but you can still use your watering can. there are a number of exemptions and we've had some

questions from viewers, we will try to answer them now. the first one is from christine and she says... know, affinity and ses says it is unlikely they will have an hosepipe ban this year, that is because they get their water from underwater rocks and those have held up a bit better. the second question is from diane, she says... the answer to that is yes, you are ok, you can carry on to use your hosepipe if you are a blue badge holder. can i take... if you have mobility issues you can register for something called the priority services register and that

means you will be able to carry on using your hosepipe so i hope that helps. and william asks, will commercial car wash facilities need to close as a result of the hosepipe ban, or are they exempt? they are exempt. this only applies to domestic properties and homes so businesses are exempt from the hosepipe ban. and debbie, finally, she asks, just wanted to ask, can you fill a fish pond if due to the heat it is losing water? yes, you can, and that's to protect the welfare of the fish. a cricket club from the black country is enjoying thames water are due to appear on a 630 programme tonight to answer more of your questions but i hope that helps. a cricket club in the black country is seeing rising popularity. managed to get six out every weekend will

they have been over—hunted, and the sea grass they feed on has been destroyed. the scientists behind the study say it's a devastating blow for the animals — a cousin of the manatee — which are classed as vulnerable on the international species red list. professor samuel turvey, from the institute of zoology at the zoological society of london is co—author of the study and says it's a very sad development it's an absolute tragedy. there is so much bad news in the world at the moment but, as this shows, we are continuing to have environmental bad news as well and we are experiencing this progressive depletion of biodiversity and the health and status of global ecosystems and this is unfortunately another flight this problem is happening. the dugong was both hunting and damage to the environment it was hunted heavily in the early part of— it was hunted heavily in the early part of the — it was hunted heavily in the early part of the 20th _ it was hunted heavily in the early part of the 20th century. - but subsequent to that it was the degradation

of the habitat it needs which dealt the final blow so in recent decades there has been increasing desperate relation of marine seas around china and many other parts of the world increasing land modification and things like sewage run—off, fertiliser run—off which has the effect of impacting the seagrass beds which dugongs need to feed on because the seagrass needs shallow clear water to photosynthesise and if you have pollutants entering the system then that makes the water much murkier so not enough light can penetrate and that is a major factor in the loss of the seagrass beds of the seas of southern china which in the absence of those there was nothing for the dugong to feed on. luckily they still find cross subtropical seas through to some of the pacific islands but they are fragmented and a lot of these

populations are under increasing pressure, basically what we see in china is almost like the end we want to try to avoid in many other shallow marine systems around the world. this unsustainable tension between human activities and biodiversity needs. 0bviously, local human communities needs to be able to use those resources as well. but there must be a win—win situation to support those biodiversity and human well—being. the national police chiefs council says every force in england and wales has begun new action plans to prevent violence against women and girls. the national strategy is part of efforts to rebuild trust in policing following the murder of sarah everard last year. in northampton, 0peration kayak, which targets sexual predators during the night—time economy, is to be made permanent after a successful trial. jon ironmongerjoined the team on a night out. in england the night time goes hand—in—hand with a good time. it
