welcome to bbc news — i'm simon pusey. our top stories: the heaviest monsoon rains in decades — a national emergency in pakistan after millions of people are forced from their homes. a truck crashes into a street party in the netherlands killing three people. the driver is arrested. us intelligence experts are to review classified materials obtained from donald trump's home in florida. and does this apply to you? it's the new workplace trend — called quiet quitting — doing just enough to get by before clocking off. thousands of people in areas

at risk of flooding in pakistan have been told to evacuate their homes. aid agencies say floods could develop into one of the country's worst disasters as the heaviest monsoon rains in decades continue. nearly a thousand people have died sincejune, while thousands more have been displaced. southern pakistan has been hardest hit by the rains — particularly sindh province. it has received nearly eight times its average rainfall for august. rivers have also burst their banks in the north—west khyber pa ktunkwa province. our correspondent pumza fihlani reports from sindh. swathes of land across southern pakistan have been turned into islands. the rains have been unforgiving, and the water is still trapped between people's homes. homes, roads and infrastructure have been destroyed, and some villages completely isolated. this week authorities issued fresh warnings for people to get to higher ground. for some, that meant beside a road.

families left with what they could manage. this man tells us he has lost everything. translation: we've been sitting here for one week. | there are 20 of us in my family, and we don't know where to go. these tents that you are seeing on either side of this main road where people have come to seek temporary shelter. they tell me that something was different about this year's rains. the water hasn'tjust come from flooded rivers, but it was torrential rains from the sky, and unlike in the past where over time the water would recede, the water is still here, and it's been weeks, so they don't know when they will be able to go back to their homes. they tell me this is the worst kind of limbo. balochistan and sindh provinces have seen the worst destruction. aid into communities has been slow. authorities say they have limited resources. it's become clear to everyone that the impact of these floods

will be faced for months, but before communities can even think about the aftermath, many people are left wondering how they will survive until the end of the day. the floods have taken lives, and for the survivors depending on farming and livestock, livelihoods are now severely at risk. pumza fihlani, bbc news, sindh. as we were hearing, rescue teams are struggling to reach communities cut off by the floods. our correspondent farhat javed has reached one village where people are waiting for help. this monsoon, pakistan is facing unprecedented rains and flash floods. i am here in kaghan valley, and this is a bridge which collapsed by a flash flood two days ago, and since then, the village on the other side of the bridge is totally cut off from the rest of the community here. we have seen people waiting on this side with their belongings to go

to that side but they can't go because they are still waiting for this bridge to be rebuilt or some other route to be developed for them. so these people are waiting for help and assistance and they are conveying messages, when we reached here, they threw this piece of paper with some stones, and they wanted to give us a message, and in this letter, they have written about the losses they have faced, about the roads and the bridges and their vehicles which were swept away by this roaring water two days ago, and about the death toll as well. two people from this village died, one body has not yet been recovered, and this flood alone took more than a dozen lives. there is still a flood warning here in this valley. the administration have told us that they are warning people, especially those who are living near the bank of the river, and also they are evacuating tourists from the hotels

which are built right on the bank of the river. the situation is even worse in other parts of the country where these rains and flash floods are wreaking havoc. more than 1000 people have died so far, and tens of thousands are displaced and waiting for assistance. but also the government has intensified relief operations and at the same time the government is requesting friendly countries and donors to come forward and help the country in these difficult times. salman sufi is the head of the prime minister's strategic reforms in pakistan. he told us the government is doing all it can, but the enormity of the devastation means much more help is needed from the international community. the prime minister has been very aggressively working on a four—pronged approach which is communication, restoration, food and shelter. the fund has already been established and international countries like uk, us, uae have already pledged some support but we need way more than that, especially in the forms of shelters, in the form of made—up homes, like the ones that can be built automatically, and especially the tents which can be provided to the people who are affected.

because as you have seen yourself, especially the provinces of balochistan and sindh, there has been around 2 million acres of cultivated area that has been wiped out and it's over like 522% over monsoon which has been unprecedented since many decades so pakistan is providing 100% support right now, we have actually cut funding from a lot of development projects to reroute it on prime minister's direction to the affected people but it's just a start and it's the tip of the iceberg and we will certainly need the assistance of international community. we are actually doing a flash message of urgent help with united nations, that's going to go out on the 30th so we will request everyone to please contribute and for us to help rebuild these lives. pakistan heavily relies

on the mountains, the snow and the mountains to melt to get the water in its rivers but because of the climate change, that is also a big issue and now all this monsoon that hits us, we are working on a strategy on how to store the water that we get through these monsoons so in a couple of years, we should be able to better manage these floods than we are right now. i think we all as a pakistani nation are collectively responsible to make sure things are done right and i do agree that has been a lot of unregulated land development which needs to be tackled and especially regulations, strict regulations which our office in islamabad, under the prime minister's direction, is actively working on right now to make sure no unregulated encroachments are done and especially the land development authorities which have been taking a lot of land which belonged to agriculture and other significant areas must be brought in check and shouldn't be just like it was before.

dutch police say three people were killed when a truck crashed into a street party not far from the port of rotterdam. it's understood the truck veered off the road and rolled into a neighbourhood barbecue at nieuw beijerland, south of rotterdam. the total number of casualties is unclear, because some of the victims are believed to be trapped under the truck. the driver wasn't injured and has been arrested. the cause of the crash is not yet known. maurice laparliere, is a journalist with a dutch broadcaster. he's been following developments from the scene. the truckjust had been towed away. we know the bodies have been removed. i did saw two, could have been more, the story goes there were about five casualties. what happened is the ice truck, the local ice truck the barbecue party with at least 100 people attending. they were celebrating the departure of the chairman last night here. suddenly a truck, a spanish truck stopped on top of the dyke and then it

accelerated and it didn't take a left turn, didn't take the right turn, itjust went down, crashing, the people who were there having their barbecue. parents had to really pull away the children, and seeing people being hit just five foot away wasa drama. the truck has been now, it's back on the dyke. there's an investigation, the driver survived it. he could speak, he is now at the police station and he is being interrogated. thousands have taken to the streets in a show of support for vice—president cristina fernandez de kirchner. she faces charges of corruption related to her time as president between 2007 and 2015. police were forced to use water cannon on supporters who gathered outside her home while the demonstrators also clashed with police in the capital buenos aires. last week prosecutors called for her to be banned from public office and given a 12—year prison sentence.

ms kirchner has denied the charges and said she's being persecuted. the united states�* director of national intelligence, avril haines, has disclosed that her office is to lead a review of potential security risks from classified materials recovered during a search of donald trump's home in florida earlier this month. in a letter to two congressional committees, ms haines said intelligence officials were working with thejustice department. a spokesman for mr trump accused the democrats of �*weaponising' the intelligence community against the former president with what he called selective and dishonest lea ks. andrew desiderio is a congressional reporter with politico. he's in washington. so the director of national intelligence is initiating what is called a damage assessment. in other words, trying to find out whether donald trump's mishandling of these documents posed any risks or harms to us national security. they going

to be doing this review in tandem with thejustice department's criminal investigation which is ongoing right now. they are looking into potential violations of the espionage act, the presidential records act as well as claims of obstruction ofjustice on the part of the former president and possibly his attorneys as well so this is a big development, the first time the biden administration is actively engaging on this issue with members of congress who are charged with oversight of the intelligence community. i guess that is what makes it quite so significant.— quite so significant. that's exactly right. _ quite so significant. that's i exactly right. administrations of both parties over the years have been reluctant to share this type of investigative information with members of congress, mostly because their view is that it would compromise the integrity of the investigation but this is a different scenario, many of the arguments have centred on this idea that the public interest in this matter is so great,

such that the public needs to see obviously some stuff with reductions, but members of congress also need to provide strict oversight to make sure they are checking all the boxes when it comes to this really extraordinary matter here in the united states of a former president being under criminal investigation by thejustice investigation by the justice department. the same former president who could be a future president, could be a candidate again in the future in the 2024 presidential election. there are so many factors at play here. ~ . ., ., here. we gave that frontline early the — here. we gave that frontline early the democrats - here. we gave that frontline early the democrats were i early the democrats were weaponising the intelligence community against the former president. it was about balance. how has the community done with their impartiality, political impartiality here? i mean, donald trump is long accused intelligence community of trying to go after him. his accused them of perpetuating witch—hunts against him. the justice department, same thing really but i think what the

biden administration is trying to do here is be as careful as they can when it comes to this investigation, knowing that it is very politically charged in the public and republicans and donald trump �*s allies in particular are going to be scrutinising their every move and when it comes to sharing this type of information with congress, they also know that many of donald trump's allies head up these committees or at least the top ranking republicans on capitol hill, so it's a very difficult tightrope for the biden administration to walk right now.— walk right now. that's all we've got _ walk right now. that's all we've got time _ walk right now. that's all we've got time for, - walk right now. that's all we've got time for, but l walk right now. that's all- we've got time for, but thank you very much indeed for telling us about this story. let's turn now to libya. the united nations has called for an immediate ceasefire following clashes between two rival political factions in the capital. at least 23 people have been killed, including civilians, and dozens have been injured. the internationally recognised government in tripoli has blamed the violence on a rival administration in the east.

earlier i asked our news reporter azadeh moshiri libya is a country torn into and this is coming from a month—long stand off between needs to rival political. the situation is in tripoli, you have a un recognised government with its own prime minister, and yet in the east you have a rival parliament that has appointed its own prime minister months ago, prime minister bashaga. and this is coming after months of tensions and as you said, libya is no stranger to violence, but this is the worst violence the country has seen in perhaps two years. what is happening is that forces aligned with the east are trying to seize territory in tripoli and using things like mortars, heavy machine—guns and small firearms. the worry is this could become much worse and this

could turn into a full—blown war. you say it could become much worse. what has international reaction been so far? the us, the un as well as turkey, which has presences around tripoli, are all calling for an immediate ceasefire. the us has asked for talks between two rival factions and in particular the us ambassador to libya has called for new elections because the last ones meant to take place in december have been indefinitely postponed. what is really raising the stakes is libya's oil and these factions have been arguing around it and it's caused a lot of bitterness and intense fighting, given these two factions have their own backers, international backers who are not interested in the outcome. it must be said that as of saturday evening, locally things have come down, but the concern is this

is not the end of it. a reminder of our headlines this hour. pakistan's national emergency — and a warning the floods sweeping the country are one of the worst disasters its ever faced. a truck crashes into a street party in the netherlands killing three people. the driver is arrested. there have been angry protests across india following the government's decision to cut short the sentence of 11 men who were convicted of brutally gang raping a muslim woman. men and women held placards and shouted slogans urging the government to reverse the controversial decision. wendy urquhart reports. this is one of many protests on the streets of india on saturday. there is utter disbelief that these convert that rapists have been set free, calling for the freedom of muslim women, they wave banners blazing with slogans like justice and demand that the government reversed its decision. bilkis burno is the

woman who was raped by the men who were released from jail. she and her two children were the only survivors when 17 attacked by hindus during the religious riots of 2002. in a statement she said: some are calling for an shall apology the bilkis bano. 0thers apology the bilkis bano. others are afraid that rape is being normalised in india. translation: iii normalised in india. translation: _, . , translation: if the convicts did all this — translation: if the convicts did all this and _ translation: if the convicts did all this and are _ translation: if the convicts did all this and are able - did all this and are able to get away with their crimes so easily that means rape culture is being normalised very badly.

the gujarat government said various points were considered in connection with the release of the men including their behaviour in prison and the fact that they had already served 15 years behind bars. dozens of retired civil servants have written to the chiefjustice of india, warning that the early release of these men sends the wrong message and puts the safety of women at risk. wendy urquhart, bbc news. the us state department has announced that president biden is planning to appoint an ambassador to the arctic region. the move comes as russia increases its military activity in the arctic, with the secretary general of nato warning of the threat posed by moscow in the region, and raising concerns about china's reach there too. the united nations coordinator for the deal to export grain from ukraine has said that millions of tonnes still need to be cleared from silos to make way for this year's harvest.

amir abdulla, who's in charge of the arrangement brokered by turkey and the un, says the agreement has led to the export of more than one million tonnes of grain so far, but much more needs to be done. emmanuel macron has welcomed a new partnership between france and its former partner. serbia and kosovo have reached a deal to allow free movement between their countries. it's one of the issues that has fuelled recent antagonism between the balkan neighbours. in 2008 kosovo, which has an ethnic albanian majority, declared independence from serbia, an independence which has been recognised by most, but not all, eu member states. until now, serbia has refused to recognise identity cards issued by kosovo. now — in a major breakthrough, the two sides have agreed to allow the use of each other�*s identity cards when crossing the border.

the eu foreign policy chief josep borrell has appealed to the countries' leaders to continue working together and solving the remaining issues. a expect both leaders to continue showing pragmatism and constructiveness in order to solve the problem with their license plates. i said many times, in time of war, ukraine, with the challenges that we have been facing, we in europe don't need any more problems, we don't need more tensions, we need solutions. we need solutions for the western balkans and today we have reached a solution. there are some problems pending and we need to continue working to solve them, but today is a very good day. the bbc�*s guy de launey tells us what the agreement means and what to expect in the future. they've been trying to find

the solution to two different problems here, really. one is the use of national identity cards when crossing what kosovo consider to be their national border with serbia considers to be an administrative border between two parts of serbia. we have seen what amounts to quite a concession by serbia. it's now saying that cards that have been issued by the authorities can be used across these borderlines. in return, kosovo will not introduce a regime of not recognising serbian issued identity cards. but the other big problem still remains, vehicle licence plates. we sawjust a couple weeks ago, people in north kosovo where the majority of people are ethnic serb, erect blockades on the road because they did not want to have to surrender their serbian issued vehicle licence plates and they still have a deadline of the 1st of september for them to do so. pope francis has created 20

new cardinals in a ceremony at the vatican. the group represents the catholic church from across the world, including the first ever cardinalfrom east timor. many come from the southern hemisphere, where 80% of catholics live. now, how hard to you work? do you go above and beyond what's required — orjust the minimum? it seems the more relaxed approach is being adopted by some younger workers — they're calling it �*quiet quitting'. so, is it re—making the rules of the workplace — or simply a response to labour market shortages that have handed employees more power? earlier i spoke with valerie ling, a clinical psychologist. i started by asking her what exactly quiet quitting means. quiet quitting is essentially a reprioritising. employees thinking about how they are going to push back on �*hustle culture' and regain a little bit more control and work life talents. and this resonate particularly with the generation 2 age range so that is 10—25 —year—olds,

right? laughter no, it's not, it is really with the generation z culture, they are the under—35s in our workforce and essentially they have been through a pandemic that has led them to reassess their lives and their priorities. they would have been studying or preparing to get into the workforce, to find meaning and purpose and just finding that they are exhausted by the last couple of years, so yes, very much impacting them. and what role has the pandemic had in all of this? firstly, that generation also has a huge impact on the mental health, so the depression and anxiety statistics in that population segment is much higher. they have also been dealing with a lot of uncertainty, not knowing how to cope in the midst of the mental health and what they are seeing in the world and finally it is what you had mentioned,

the workplace shortages, needing for them to actually do more without a lot of life experience to help them to negotiate those conversations with their employers. you don't think this isjust the physics of the labour market? there are jobs available so employers have more power? it could be that. i do think there has been, there is a need to recalibrate how we view work. it needs to be seen as less transactional, we need to less productivity conversations and have a lot more workplace well being conversations, so that we are actually touching base with how people are faring as our personal life collides with our professional worlds. and what would your advice be to employers or employees even who may be struggling with this and employers who are saying this is happening in their workplace? we probably want to see a lot more conversation

around asking what employees actually are going through and what they need. workplace surveys that can tap into where morale is at and the types of flexibility arrangements that can be put in. employers can also move towards thinking beyond having your table tennis and pizza culture type events and actually putting some measures to figure out how they can modify work roles, work designs to accommodate reduced capacity in the workforce. a unique unesco world heritage site has played host to an event in the cliff diving world series. the iconic 16th century mostar �*stari most�* bridge looms high over the river. elite divers fling themselves from 28 metres up, battling for the top score. romania's catalin preda twisting and turning his way into second place, with countryman constantin popovici setting a new record for total scoring at one event as he claimed the win. the series now heads

to switzerland. that's just about it from me for now. you can reach me on twitter — i'm @sipusey. hello there. for three of the four nations of the uk, this is of course a bank holiday weekend and as bank holidays go, this one hasn't started off too badly. that was the scene for a weather watcher in devon during saturday, just a bit of patchy cloud, some sunny spells, most places were dry and most places stay dry into sunday with high pressure dominating the scene. however we have one weak frontal system bringing cloud and some rain to start off across northern ireland and scotland, some rather misty and murky conditions for a time here. further south across england and wales, any early mist clearing, some good spells of sunshine. we will see one or two showers developing into the afternoon but they will be the exception rather than the rule. brightening up a little bit across southern parts

of scotland, staying cloudy in the north, 16 stornoway, 23 degrees in london. through the late afternoon though could see a little bit of rain developing across parts of northern ireland. that could well expand across the irish sea across parts of north—west england, south—west scotland as we go through the night. a fair amount of cloud also streaming into north—eastern parts and the breeze will be picking up. that will hold the temperatures up in double digits for many of us and that brisk breeze will be a big feature of the weather for monday, a bank holiday for england, wales, northern ireland, not for scotland. with high pressure to the north of us we will see brisk north—easterly winds making it feel rather cool and certainly keeping things rather cloudy for some eastern parts. the best of the sunshine and the highest of the temperatures will be further west where you get some shelter from that breeze. despite some rather windy conditions in the south—west of england, temperatures here could get to 25 degrees. lots of sunshine to come here, also decent amounts of sunshine for wales, parts of northern ireland. further east we will see more

in the way of cloud, could be one or two afternoon showers but there is confirmation of that fairly brisk breeze and some low temperatures across northern and eastern parts. 15 for aberdeen, 25 degrees in cardiff. as we look further ahead, high—pressure will remain with us for a good part of the coming week but we will see one low to the south. that could introduce some showers and by the end of the week, chances are that the frontal system from the west will introduce outbreaks of rain. so there is the increasing chance of rain as we get towards the end of the week and after a rather cool couple of days for some, temperatures will climb a little.

this is bbc news, the headlines: thousands of people in flood—risk areas of pakistan have been told to evacuate their homes. aid agencies say floods could develop into one of the country's worst disasters as the heaviest monsoon rains in decades continue. nearly 1,000 people have died sincejune, while thousands more have been displaced. dutch police say three people were killed when a truck crashed into a street party not far from the port of rotterdam. it's understood the truck veered off the road and rolled into a neighbourhood barbecue at new by—erlant, and rolled into a neighbourhood barbecue south of rotterdam. the driver wasn't injured and has been arrested. the united states' director of national intelligence, avril haines, has disclosed that her office is to lead a review
