this is bbc news. the headlines: police investigating the fatal shooting of nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel in liverpool reveal that two guns were used in the attack. they renewed their appeal for information. this man is toxic. he is toxic to our communities and if you are protecting him, he's toxic to you and your family. borisjohnson plans to invest £700 million for the sizewell c nuclear power plant, as the energy crisis is forecast to worsen over the winter months. i say go nuclear and go large and go with sizewell c. two men are to be prosecuted over the deaths of three teenagers in a crush outside a disco

in county tyrone, northern ireland. scotland's first minister nicola sturgeon is to meet union leaders in a bid to end the council workers�* strike crisis tributes pour in for bbc breakfast presenter and journalist bill turnbull, who's died at the age of 66. merseyside police have revealed that two guns were used in the shooting that killed nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel. olivia was shot in her home last week as her mother tried to stop a gunman entering their house. detectives have now released cctv of the gunman

running from the scene. a 35—year—old man who was the target of the attack, and was on parole, is still being treated in hospital and will be sent back to prison when he's discharged. detective chief superintendent mark kameen gave an update about the investigation at a news conference. i'm going to show you some footage in a moment of a man that murdered olivia. i'm doing this because people may recognise what he's wearing. it may also help people remember seeing him in the area on the night that olivia was murdered and thereby help us trace where he is and where he went. we can play that footage now. this footage that we're looking at at the moment shows the gunman running along finch lane away from king's heath avenue, which is, of course, where olivia lived. you then see him turn

right into berryford road and go out of sight. we know this man is climbing through gardens and through people's back yards in order to avoid being identified as well as using the roads, as you can see. you will see from the footage that the gunman is wearing a black padded jacket, a black balaclava with a peak, black gloves and also has dark trainers with distinctive white soles. he is described as approximately five foot seven, tall and of slim build. this is the man we are hunting for. we need to know where he went that night. i need to know if you saw him in the area. remember, this is shortly after 10pm on monday the 22nd of august. now, i know that there will be people shielding him and helping this man avoid being found by the police.

if you are found doing this, then we will do everything legitimately possible to bring you to justice. it is beyond comprehension how anyone could protect or harbour a man who is responsible for killing a nine—year—old child. this man is toxic. he is toxic to our communities. and if you're protecting him, he's toxic to you and your family. i want you to place the loyalty that you have towards your family above the loyalty that you may have to this man. i want the information as to where this man is. i'm now going to talk about the gun that was used in this attack. the investigation team have worked closely with partners within the forensic arena and the national ballistics

intelligence service, also known as nabis. and i can now confirm that there were two guns used in this attack. i believe at this time that the gunman brought both of those weapons to the scene. he had them with him at the time of the attack. i also believe that the gunman took both of those guns away with him when he callously left the scene. as we've just seen on the cctv. i clearly want to know where those guns are. you may have been told to hide or dispose of them. and i understand that some people might be frightened in those circumstances. but i want you to do the right thing for olivia and her mum. and the right thing is to tell us where those guns are. our correspondent tim muffett is here. the police revealing in more detail about what happened. it’s a

was climbing into gardens to avoid being seen and i hope any of this mightjog someone's memory and get them to come forward and contact police. there have been so many calls for anyone who might be protecting the suspect to come forward even though they might be fearful and there was a stark warning, mark kameen saying you may have been told to dispose of these guns and you might be frightened but i want you to do the right thing for olivia and tell us where they are. if you are hiding the guns and have no intention of telling us then i will place you in the same category as the vile man responsible for the murder. , ., ., ., murder. olivia's death one of several in _ murder. olivia's death one of several in gun _ murder. olivia's death one of several in gun crime - murder. olivia's death one of several in gun crime in - murder. olivia's death one of - several in gun crime in liverpool. there have been more than 30 arrests in recent days as police crackdown

on organised crime and merseyside police have made 32 arrests, carried out 66 stop and searches and executed ii warrants and seized eight vehicles. two men were arrested on suspicion of olivia's murder last week but released on bail at the weekend so a difficult situation. this case has focused so many people's minds on the dangers of gun crime in liverpool. it's hoped the cctv footage willjog someone's memory and maybe move the investigation forward. tim someone's memory and maybe move the investigation forward.— investigation forward. tim muffett their reporting- — in his last major speech as prime minister, borisjohnson has promised £700 million for the sizewell c nuclear power station project in suffolk. he criticised former governments for failing to invest in nuclear power, calling it paralysis. sizewell c is part of a long—term strategy to bring down energy costs — but it could take 15 years to build and a final go—ahead will have to wait for mrjohnson�*s successor.

here's our political correspondent, iain watson. the outgoing prime minister wants to go nuclear. he'd like to give the green light to a new power station in sizewell in suffolk. he is pledging £700 million, which he hopes will set off something of a financial chain reaction as private companies and france's state—owned edf in turn pledging more cash for the project. the deal is not done yet, but he said nuclear power was part of a strategy to improve the uk's energy security. out of this catastrophe of putin's war, i think good will come in that europe will wean itself off russian hydrocarbons. we will no longer be subject, vulnerable, to his blackmail, and in this country, we will have greatly accelerated long—overdue reforms and steps to become energy independent, in particular by rectifying the damage we've done

to our nuclear industry. borisjohnson cannot guarantee that a new nuclear power station will be built. that decision will be taken by his successor. and it could take billions of pounds, not the millions he's pledged, to get the project off the ground. even then, it might not produce any power for another 15 years. please welcome liz truss... at the final hustings event of the conservative leadership contest last night, the candidates were keen to say they would expand domestic energy production. the fact is, we should have made decisions years ago about nuclear power. we should be using more of the resources in the north sea. we should be doing fracking in areas where local communities support it. in the short term, liz truss ruled out energy rationing, but rishi sunak said there isjust too much uncertainty. energy rationing? we shouldn't rule anything outi because the challenges we face with this crisis are significant. on the serious short—term

challenge of rising bills, liz truss said she would offer immediate support if she becomes prime minister. but she hasn't said how much. rishi sunak said he would cushion the least well—off from the effect of price increases, but hasn't said how much money he would provide. the labour leader repeated his call for a six—month price freeze. for the millions of people that won't be able to pay those bills, hearing the labour party say we would freeze those bills, we will not let that happen, and we will use money from a windfall tax on oil and gas companies who have made much more profit than they were expecting, to pay for that, that's a huge relief. there seems to be agreement across the political spectrum that the uk should be less reliant on other countries for its energy needs, but irrespective of how or where power is generated, the challenge for politicians is to ensure people can afford to pay for it. let's talk to our political correspondent david wallace lockhart.

i suppose some people might see a contradiction that we have the prime minister criticising previous governments for not prioritising nuclear power and here he is in the last few days of his premiership making big promises. find last few days of his premiership making big promises.— last few days of his premiership making big promises. and he's ending his premiership _ making big promises. and he's ending his premiership after— making big promises. and he's ending his premiership after 12 _ making big promises. and he's ending his premiership after 12 years - making big promises. and he's ending his premiership after 12 years of- his premiership after 12 years of government with his party and plenty of people are pointing out the conservatives could have done something about this quite some time ago. a lot of focus at the moment is on immediate support for households with energy bills but in government there is more long—term thinking about energy security and boris johnson did publish a plan on that a months ago before he knew he would be out of office that talked about more offshore wind, getting more oil and gas out of the north sea to use domestically and nuclear, an idea he is keen on and broadly speaking both

the candidates we heard from comic rishi sunak and liz truss, more or less agree. we also have to think about what boris johnson is less agree. we also have to think about what borisjohnson is up to, a bit of a tour of the country trying to plug what he believes have been some of his big successes in office. he was in dorset on tuesday talking about gigabit broadband, he was on a police raid in london yesterday and today he is making this announcement on sizewell c and he is not able to tie his predecessors' hands on this, they seem to agree more needs to be done on nuclear but by spending the £700 million he is perhaps trying to give them a shove in that direction. people at home may be interested in energy security or the uk becoming more independent when it comes to keeping the lights on but for a lot of people the main concern will be how they deal with upcoming rises in

bills. we heard a bit of a change in town from liz truss writing in the sun newspaper this morning saying a part from the tax cut she has talked about she will deliver immediate support to make sure people do not face unaffordable fuel bills. that sounds like a pledge if she becomes prime minister to give more direct support, it's something rishi sunak has promised for the most vulnerable in society but what we don't have with a new prime minister coming into office next week is any clear picture of what they will do to cushion the blow many households might struggle with.— might struggle with. david, thank ou. the headlines on bbc news... police investigating the fatal shooting of nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel in liverpool reveal that two guns were used in the attack and renew their appeal for information. borisjohnson has used his final policy speech before leaving office to promise millions of pounds for a new nuclear power plant

on the suffolk coast. scotland's first minister nicola sturgeon meets union leaders amid threats of another wave of strike action by council workers. a man from norfolk has been killed while volunteering as a medic in ukraine. craig mackintosh's sister said he had died "in the line of duty". she's now raising money to bring home his body. the foreign office says it's supporting his family. ukraine has accused russia of renewed shelling close to the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. a safety inspection by un inspectors had been delayed, but they've now arrived at the site. there've been fears of a radiation disaster at the plant, which finds itself on the front line of the fighting. our correspondent, hugo bachega, is in kyiv and has been following the latest developments and movements of the inspectors.

yeah, after travelling through this grey zone of between territory controlled by ukrainian forces and territory occupied by russian troops, the inspectors from the international atomic energy agency are finally at the zaporizhzhia nuclear power complex. now, we just had an update from the head of the local authority there in the region of zaporizhzhia saying that today the inspectors will be visiting the working hall. it is unlikely that they're going to have time to visit the reactors, but the mission will be allowed to return tomorrow. so it's a suggestion that this is going to be at least a two day visit by these inspectors. there was a little bit of confusion about how long these inspectors would be allowed to stay at this complex. and for weeks, we've been talking about tensions around this nuclearfacility with ukraine accusing russian forces of turning

this facility into a military base, using it to launch attacks against ukrainian targets, perhaps knowing that ukrainian forces are unlikely to retaliate. russia has rejected these accusations and says russian troops are there protecting the plant and these inspectors will be looking for any kind of damage in the facility. also, whether the facility remains safe after weeks of shelling in and around this complex. and i think the hope is that these monitors will be able to talk to the ukrainian technicians who are still operating the station. now, we heard from rafael grossi, the head of the international atomic energy agency, who is leading this mission. and he said the objective was to prevent a nuclear accident. two men are to be prosecuted in relation to the deaths of three teenagers in a crush outside a st patrick's day disco in county tyrone, northern ireland.

lauren bullock, morgan barnard and conor currie suffered fatal injuries in the incident outside the greenvale hotel in cookstown in 2019. our ireland correspondent is chris page. this dreadful crush happened on saint patrick's night in 2019, an evening that should have been special for young evening that should have been specialfor young people but instead a story of unspeakable horror. the rate teenagers died in the crash, lauren bullock and morgan barnard were 17 and conor currie was a year longer so it has been a long and complex investigation, detectives have taken 1300 witness statements and prosecutors have announced they would bring charges of gross negligence and manslaughter against

two men, one is 43 and the other is 55 and it is understood the owner of the hotel, michael michael hatton, is the 55—year—old. he has issued a statement saying he recognises it is a sensitive time for the families and it would inappropriate to comment further. seven members of the door staff were investigated but were told they would not face charges. prosecutors were considering files related to five police officers, four of whom delayed intervening at the scene or they waited for back—up but prosecutors have decided not to charge those police officers, they say there is insufficient evidence to bring criminal charges, for example evidence that they knew the seriousness of what is happening but one of the bereaved families, the family of morgan barnard said while they welcome the manslaughter charges they are not happy that no

police officers will be charged and they have asked their lawyer to request a formal review of that decision with the public prosecution service in northern ireland so let's hear from the solicitor forjames bradley, morgan barnard's father. irate bradley, morgan barnard's father. we must remember the decision by the police _ must remember the decision by the police ombudsman does not give those police _ police ombudsman does not give those police officers a clean bill of health — police officers a clean bill of health but raises further questions about— health but raises further questions about their conduct. while there is no decision— about their conduct. while there is no decision to prosecute the family have engaged with the ombudsman in terms _ have engaged with the ombudsman in terms of— have engaged with the ombudsman in terms of the next stage but we must not forget _ terms of the next stage but we must not forget that until there is a wider— not forget that until there is a wider systemic investigation into all the _ wider systemic investigation into all the public bodies involved here, we will_ all the public bodies involved here, we will never get the truth of what happened — we will never get the truth of what happened that night and lessons will not he _ happened that night and lessons will not be learned so world today is a positive _ not be learned so world today is a positive step forward it is an incomplete answer. until there is at somatic_ incomplete answer. until there is at somatic investigation lessons will

council areas after a walk—out by bin collectors. let's speak to our correspondent lorna gordon. we have had that disruption in the last few days and there is more planned for next week. what's the latest on those talks? that planned for next week. what's the latest on those talks?— latest on those talks? that first wave of strike _ latest on those talks? that first wave of strike action _ latest on those talks? that first wave of strike action has - latest on those talks? that first i wave of strike action has finished, a big clean—up operation trying to clear away piles and dumps of rubbish throughout many areas of scotland, edinburgh is pretty filthy and glasgow, that clean—up started to date with bin collectors trying to date with bin collectors trying to make the street healthy and clean again but that's just a first wave of action. a second wave is threatened next week and due to start on tuesday. refuse workers in many council areas are joined by workers and primary and secondary schools are due to close as janitorial and cleaning staff among

others go on strike so there has been a significant shift in the negotiations today with the first minister nicola sturgeon for the first time taking part in the talks. she met with council leaders in the body that represents the councils here in scotland, that took place around 1pm, then she has been meeting union leaders those talks are now ongoing for around three hours. we are told they may continue for at least another hour. the big challenge is all sides in this one to see it resolved, they are sympathetic to the challenges faced by low—paid workers in particular in terms of this cost of living crisis and the increase in fuel and food bills going forward but the difficulty is where the money comes from for any pay increases. at the moment there is a 5% pay increase on the table, a £1025 as well that the

unions want that to be consolidated into pay. the scottish government have said they have no more money, they put £314 million towards the pay offer at the moment but nicola sturgeon going into those talks said she was hopeful of a breakthrough so there is a willingness and a keenness to break the impasse, it's just a question is where is the money for any pay deal going to come from and what precedent that might set for the scottish government in pay deal going forward, in particular any possible deal for nhs workers in scotland. canada says it will "follow up" claims that one of its spies smuggled three british schoolgirls into syria in 2015. a bbc investigation revealed shamima begum, who fled the uk and joined the islamic state group

with two friends, was smuggled there by a canadian agent. canada's prime ministerjustin trudeau said he will "look at" the accusations to ensure rules were followed. shamima begum is now held in a detention camp in north—east syria. tributes have been coming in for bill turnbull, the former bbc presenter, who's died at the age of 66 after a long struggle with prostate cancer. he hosted bbc breakfast for 15 years, and also appeared on songs of praise, strictly come dancing and classic fm. susannah reid, who presented alongside him, said he was the kindest, funniest, most generous man in the business. his family said he brought warmth and humour into people's homes. he's also been praised for his work in raising awareness about prostate cancer. graham satchell looks back on his life. thank you for letting me into your home in the morning, whether it's in the kitchen, or in the living room, or,

as i'm often told, the bedroom, and whether you've been with us for the past 15 years orjust this morning, i hope you've found it worthwhile. it certainly has been for me. breakfast�*s back as usual tomorrow from six. until then, have a great day, bye—bye. bill turnbull�*s final show on bbc breakfast tv in 2016. he became a much—loved fixture in people's homes. so, this is where it all started for me, up there on the top floor. in those windows there was the newsroom of radio clyde 261, the heartbeat of glasgow and the west of scotland. it's where i learned my craft as a cub reporter. i had to learn some very tough lessons, very quickly. bill was at heart always a reporter. his bbc career took him to the biggest stories, like the bombing of pan am flight 103 over lockerbie in 1988. this may have been one of the shortest days of the calendar year, but for lockerbie, it's been the longest in its history. we met two children selling bread. his style — honest, straight—talking, down to earth. on many levels this is a thriving, bustling city doing very good

business, like many others. we've been here for about 20 minutes and people have made us feel very welcome. but there is also a sense that at any point something could go wrong. from tearaway toddlers... oh. — 0h, he's back. what you're doing here is a bit of sort of psycho campaigning, isn't it, really? you're planting a seed of doubt in the electorate's mind. ..to prime ministers. no, not at all. even if it's explained away later. order has been restored. he was always ready with a quick one—liner. i was taking great interest in your isobars there. would you say they were tightly packed? they are quite tightly packed, yes. bill became a star of shows like strictly. i'm going to place that there. oh, that's so sweet. but it was while filming celebrity bake off for stand up to cancer that he revealed his own diagnosis. the doctor said it's fairly clear from this that you have advanced prostate cancer. may the healing properties of your bees...

again, bill was straightforward about the condition, clear with his advice. for heaven's sake, go and get yourself tested. if you can catch it early, then that's much better than finding out too late. his openness had a remarkable impact. the number of people getting treatment for prostate cancer went up by more than a third in a year. it's very heart—warming when people get in touch. i think, well, i've done at least one useful thing in my life. helping thousands of other men remains perhaps his greatest legacy. the broadcaster and former bbc breakfast presenter bill turnbull, who's died at the age of 66. now it's time for a look at the weather with stav. —— from louise. we have seen 26

degrees in east sussex but over the last couple of hours we had sharp showers and they could turn heavy and thundery as we go through the night. they will be hit and miss, coming up from this weather front in france so some of those showers we will need to keep an eye on a cross—channel coast, they will move in in the early hours tonight, elsewhere clearer skies and temperatures falling in eastern scotland, may be some patchy mist and fog here and out to the west a weather front will show its hand so the weather story is changing but you ain't seen nothing yet, as we go into the weekend it could turn wet and windy for many so friday will be relatively quiet, some rain pushing into the far west, ahead of at temperatures will peak into the mid 20s, temperatures will peak into the mid 205, 26 temperatures will peak into the mid 20s, 26 celsius not out of the question but into saturday and sunday we could see showers, some heavy and thundery, some merging togetherfor heavy and thundery, some merging together for longer spells of rain

so the weather has changed as we changed months, it looks likely that as we head into the weekend it turns wet and windy for some of us. hello, this is bbc news with ben brown. the headlines... police investigating the fatal shooting of nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel in liverpool reveal that two guns were used in the attack and renew

in principle worth £12 million—plus defender marcus alonso, for barcelona striker pierre—emerick aubameyang — that's according to spanish football journalist guillem balague. aubameyang scored 13 goals in 24 appearances for the catalan club afterjoining them from arsenal injanuary. he had a buyout clause of 100 million euros in his contract, but has only played eight minutes for them so far this season. a dealfor aubameyang would mean chelsea chairman todd boehly will have spent almost £250 million in his first transfer window since buying the club from roman abramovich. manchester united have signed brazil winger antony from ajax for an initial fee of 95 million euros — that's £82 million. the deal is the fourth—most expensive signing in premier league history. the 22—year—old has signed a contract until 2027, with the option of an additional year. leicester city have signed wout faes from french club reims.

the defender has joined on a five—year contract for an undisclosed fee, with the move subject to international clearance. earlier, i asked ourfootball reporter simon stone how much we know about the 24—year—old. we don't know a lot about him. he is 24 years of age, but again, leicester have ended up in a weird situation this summer — usually they sell one of their star players early on in the window, then use that money to reinvest in the squad. that didn't happen this time, we've ended up didn't happen this time, we've ended up with wesley for fauna going to chelsea for a lot of money this week, but really brendan rodgers is only getting a small proportion of that money to spend on his squad that money to spend on his squad that are in a far weaker position then you'd normally expect them to be at this point in a transfer window. you'll be able to catch up with all the latest news from transfer deadline day, with a special episode of the football news show on bbc iplayer from 11pm tonight. the second round of the uefa women's

champions league has been drawn, with two british teams in action at the end of the month. there are two paths in the draw to decide the 12 teams who will make up the rest of the groups. arsenal are in the league path — they'll face ajax in the second round, while last season's scottish women's premier league winners rangers are in the champions path up against benfica. chelsea's women's super league title secured them a spot in the group stage alongside barcelona, wolfsburg, and last year's winner, lyon. to tennis now, and the news that serena williams's retirement plans are on hold for a little longer. she's through to the third round of the us open at flushing meadows, after beating the number two seed from estonia, anett kontaveit in three sets. williams, who's one shy of margaret court's record of 24 grand slam singles titles, took the decider 6—2 to seal her place in the last 32. i cannot think that far. i don't — like i've said, i'm having fun and enjoying it and, honestly, i've had so many tough

matches that i just feel like being prepared for every one that i play is going to be really, really difficult and just to get through those moments. and the live action is back under way at flushing meadows — britain men's number two, dan evans, is in action against australian james duckworth. evans won the first set 6—3, and is leading 3—2 in the second. centre tatyana heard makes herfirst england appearance in three years, in an experimental side for saturday's world cup warm—up against the united states. five players from the starting 15 that beat france to a six nations grand slam remain. claudia macdonald, who thought her career had been ended by a neck injury in 2021, starts on the wing. cath o'donnell also returns from injury to fight for a place in the second row. that's all the sport for now. we'll have more for you in sportsday at 6.30pm.

thank you, laura. in pakistan, international aid agencies are struggling to help hundreds of thousands of people displaced by the flooding. millions of people are now homeless. our reporter farhat jawad sent this report from the western province of balochistan. this is quetta, the provincial capital of baluchistan, one of the most affected provinces. and it's been two—and—a—half months of flooding here, and people are still waiting for help, they are still suffering. i am surrounded by houses which are razed to the ground. all you can see right now is rubble. and one reason — these houses were built right next to a stream. sobbing this woman and her family, they are trying to collect whatever is left of their home. translation: no-one is helping us. everything my husband and i had is lost. we struggled all our lives and built our home in this old age. now we are left with nothing. we appeal you to help us.

whoever is the prime minister, imran or shahbaz, we don't care. i beg you. baluchistan has 34 districts — and out of them, 31 are directly affected by the flood, and many of them are completely cut off from the rest of the country. in quetta, the provincial capital, it's been five days that there is no electricity, no gas supply, and mobile phones are not working. now you can imagine the magnitude of the problem people in other districts are facing, which are still cut off from the rest of the country. and people here in the capital and in other parts of the province are still waiting for help. our correspondent pumza figlani is in the southeast of the country — in the city of dadu, in sindh province. there is more water coming into this district. authorities have warned people to leave everything and try to get to safety. for people, what they were able

to salvage is blankets, some pillows, othersjust a plastic bag that they could try to use for cover. this area has been flooded for weeks, and their water levels have been high already, but there is now a secondary threat of water coming down from the mountains threatening to flood this entire region. authorities tell us 250,000 people are in danger. they need resources to get them out, they need a place to take them, and both of those things currently, there simply aren't enough of. it's unclear to these people what help is coming, they don't know how long they are going to need to stay here, and they don't know if food is even going to come. these are some of the pictures that we are seeing across rural pakistan, but especially now dadu is where the most effort is needed, authorities tell us because they realise that there are people, if nothing happens within the next day or the next few hours, even, that there are people

whose lives are in danger and they are worried that theyjust don't have enough resources to get everyone to safety. well, we can now speak to arifjabba khan, who's country director for pakistan, for the charity wateraid. he's just got back to pakistan's capital, islamabad having witnessed events first—hand in sindh province. what is the picture there, how desperate is the situation for people living in the province? sorry, i lost you for a few seconds, can you repeat the question? i was 'ust askin: can you repeat the question? i was just asking you _ can you repeat the question? i was just asking you what _ can you repeat the question? i was just asking you what the _ can you repeat the question? i was just asking you what the situation in sindh province was, you'vejust been there? 50 in sindh province was, you've 'ust been thereafi in sindh province was, you've 'ust been tneneafi in sindh province was, you've 'ust been there? , , ., ., been there? so basically what we are lookin: at been there? so basically what we are looking at is — been there? so basically what we are looking at is not _ been there? so basically what we are looking at is notjust _ been there? so basically what we are looking at is notjust disaster- looking at is notjust disaster related to flooding and climate change, i think we are also looking at an emergency related to displacement because hundreds of thousands of people are on the move

and they are moving towards cities, towns, wherever they can find a space to live in, they are moving there. the other catastrophe we are foreseeing is the spread of diseases. i've talked to government officials, malaria is already on the rise — it's so high in one district that the government said they can't test people any more. the situation is a bit overwhelming because there are plenty of multifaceted problems, and the scale of the response has not picked up as yet in relation to the situation on the ground. you talked about _ the situation on the ground. you talked about the _ the situation on the ground. you talked about the threat of disease — what is your charity wateraid in particular doing about that concern? we are actually providing clean drinking water, because people use

infected or contaminated water leads to cholera and other diseases. we are doing hygiene promotion amongst the refugees and especially for women, the reason we focus on woman friendly hygiene kits is due to their specialties, they need extra support and extra material. most important, they are the issues of dignity and privacy, because they are essentially living in embankments out in the open and they have to wait until nightfall to go to the toilet, because there is no toilet, theyjust go in the bush. that's why we are focusing specifically on providing latrines as well as hygiene materials, and also hygiene education for the local people. also hygiene education for the local n-eole. ., , also hygiene education for the local n-eole. . , ., , also hygiene education for the local neale, . , . , , people. there have been many floods down the years _ people. there have been many floods down the years in _ people. there have been many floods down the years in pakistan, _ people. there have been many floods down the years in pakistan, i - down the years in pakistan, i covered one set of floods a few years ago — but this is on a

different scale, isn't it, this flooding? just explained the scale of what's happening right now. actually i was also here during the 2010 floods, and 2011—12. we had ice melt as well as heavy rainfall combining, and itjust went down the country. now what is happening is we had a heat wave for a few months, people were dying because of the heat — then suddenly we had this low pressure in the south, so the hill torrents started coming into balochistan, then we had rain falls in the north, as well. then there was one point where the entire country was under rainfall. so i think the reason it is different, it's been more intense but also hitting at different times. you

know, we had the first wave, a few days ago, and as your report mentioned, that's also going down to the south. d0 mentioned, that's also going down to the south. ,, mentioned, that's also going down to the south. , ., ~ mentioned, that's also going down to the south. ,, ~' , mentioned, that's also going down to the south. i. ~ , , the south. do you think this is nlobal the south. do you think this is global warming? _ the south. do you think this is global warming? you - the south. do you think this is globalwarming? you know, i | the south. do you think this is - globalwarming? you know, i think this is related _ globalwarming? you know, i think this is related to _ globalwarming? you know, i think this is related to that _ globalwarming? you know, i think this is related to that because - this is related to that because we've never had such intensity and widespread precipitation in such a short period of time, because the record has been broken. that has never happened before. so definitely this is related to climate change, because we had the heat wave which was very intense, now we have the floods that are very intense — and that has never happened before, as well. ., ., that has never happened before, as well. . ,, , ., that has never happened before, as well. ., ~' , ., , that has never happened before, as well. . ,, i. , . that has never happened before, as well. ., ,, ,, , . ., that has never happened before, as well. . ,, , . ., well. thank you very much for your time and good _ well. thank you very much for your time and good luck— well. thank you very much for your time and good luck to _ well. thank you very much for your time and good luck to you - well. thank you very much for your time and good luck to you with - well. thank you very much for your time and good luck to you with alll time and good luck to you with all your efforts.

so supportive, he really did help me. it was great fun, and we are both veterans of that programme. but thatjust both veterans of that programme. but that just shows you both veterans of that programme. but thatjust shows you the versatility of bill turnbull, that he was a news presenter, brilliant politician, the next time he's giggling about something else, than he was able to take the mickey out of himself, dancing a ballroom dance on the biggest show on television. which ou biggest show on television. which you modestly _ biggest show on television. which you modestly admitted _ biggest show on television. which you modestly admitted to - biggest show on television. which you modestly admitted to say - biggest show on television. which you modestly admitted to say you won, chris. laughter now for bbc breakfast you have to get up at three a:m., it's hard to be cheerful and a bundle of fun at that time when you come into the office. but bill always seemed all smiles all the time. fin office. but bill always seemed all smiles all the time.— smiles all the time. on the news channel you _ smiles all the time. on the news channel you get _ smiles all the time. on the news channel you get some _ smiles all the time. on the news channel you get some bad - smiles all the time. on the news| channel you get some bad shifts. smiles all the time. on the news - channel you get some bad shifts. so you always have to be on your very

stamina and is special quality. shes stamina and is special quality. as well as all his journalistic qualities, towards the end of his life when he found out he had prostate cancer, he played a great role in warning men about what they needed to do, the checks they needed to make and going to see a doctor if they had any concerns. he really played an important, inspirational role in raising awareness about prostate cancer.— role in raising awareness about prostate cancer. that's typical bill - i'm prostate cancer. that's typical bill - i'm sure — prostate cancer. that's typical bill - i'm sure he _ prostate cancer. that's typical bill - i'm sure he might've _ prostate cancer. that's typical bill - i'm sure he might've done - prostate cancer. that's typical bill - i'm sure he might've done it - — i'm sure he might've done it myself, you hide in your own corner and feel very sorry for yourself, thinking about woe is me, why is it happened to me? but bill being bill wanted to do everything he could to send that message out, to make sure that men of all ages had themselves tested, to say he wasn't giving up. he well—documented his with prostate cancer. i would text him every now

and again and he would tell me he wasn't giving up, i knew he would be a fighter and he fought all the way through the end. and he did again with a smile on his face — i suppose the generosity of spirit to encourage other people, to make sure they themselves had been checked. thank you so much for your memories, chris, of bill turnbull, who's died at the age of 66, thank you. the united nations has accused china of "serious human rights violations" in a long—awaited report into allegations of abuse against uyghur muslims and other ethnic minorities. china denies the allegations and had urged the un not to release the report. but investigators say they found "credible evidence" of torture which may amount "crimes against humanity". the report was released on michelle bachelet�*s final day in office as the un's high commissionerfor human rights. here's our diplomatic correspondent caroline hawley.

these are just some of the uighur muslims who have been locked up by china — leaked images shared earlier this year with the bbc. a mass incarceration of a people collectively repressed in the name of chinese security. human rights groups have warned for years of horrific abuses against the uighurs, but now the long—awaited verdict of the un speaks of forced medical treatment and sexual violence, and it says the world must now pay urgent attention to what's happening in xinjiang. there is, it says, credible evidence of torture, possibly amounting to crimes against humanity. it really pierces this chinese government facade that there is nothing to see in the uighur region. well, there is something to see. so they're no longer allegations, this is confirmation of horrendous human rights abuses in the region at the moment. this was the un high commissioner for human rights in a much criticised visit to china in may. last week she said she had been under pressure not to publish the report. it was finally released just minutes before she ended her four—year term, to fury from china.

translation: the so-called assessment is orchestrated l and manufactured by the us and some western forces. it is wholly illegal and invalid. the report is misinformation which serves as a political tool for the us and the west to strategically use xinjiang to contain china. china has always denied running internment camps, insisting they are vocational training centres for willing students, but it has never allowed unfettered access to any of the locations of the camps in xinjiang, so for the uighurs, the un report is an important vindication, recognition of their suffering. i just cannot stop my tears when i was reading the report after midnight last night. it's one of relief but also, you know, the longing for the last five years, you know, to see some reaction and validation by the un. i believe the governments

around the world can put extra pressure on china. business shouldn't be usual. human rights groups too say the publication of the report should mark a turning point in the world's response. amnesty international described it as a game—changer, saying un member states would now be duty bound to act on what it found. caroline hawley, bbc news. the owner of snapchat announced it was cutting fifth of its workforce, 12,000 jobs. was cutting fifth of its workforce, 12,000jobs. snapshot was cutting fifth of its workforce, 12,000 jobs. snapshot has been suffering from slow down in the advertising market. a year ago, it was worth $130 billion — today it is valued at less than $20 billion. from new york, sameer hussein. since

and had made some observations about what was happening — for example, this person said subliminal messages were being put up on a big screen, sent out to the audience, messages that constituted left—wing interventions of a political nature. and there were references to race lights in the us, to anti—us sentiment. now clearly this was the 19605, sentiment. now clearly this was the 1960s, we know the fbi did monitor and keep tabs on certain individuals, high—profile pop stars, rock stars, the beatles, john lennon, jimi hendrix— interestingly, jimi hendrix actually opened for the monkeys —— the monkees, now it seems like an unlikely combination, but jimi hendrix actually open for the monkees. but they were at the centre of this very controversial atmosphere at the times, clearly an anti—war sentiment in the country.

now it's time for a look at the weather with louise. good evening, everyone. today is the first day of meteorological autumn. however we still had some warm summer sunshine for some of us, in east sussex temperatures peaked at 26 celsius this afternoon, a very nice indeed. now there are a few thunderstorms all courtesy of this weather system spilling up from france, moving across the channel. the showers are isolated but some of them are quite beefy over the next few hours, moving their way steadily up few hours, moving their way steadily up towards parts of bristol and into the cheltenham area, as well. overnight tonight we have clear skies across eastern scotland, here some patchy fog forming. tomorrow morning some of those showers will linger, but it will easily quite quickly, but we'll see quite the micro cloud here. moving across eastern scotland in northern england, at the same time this

weather front shows its hands, bringing outbreaks of rain. we could once again see temperatures across south east england into the mid to high 20s, and quite humid with it as well. but into the weekend, change is afoot. in area of low pressure arrives, staying with us for a few days at least. it will throw several frontal systems around in an anticlockwise direction, seeing some showers merging together for longer spells of rain particularly across northern ireland in southwest scotland. here we have a weather warning for the intensity. elsewhere it will be showering in nature, and on sunday for some if you dodge the rain, you should still get temperatures as high as 24 celsius. but there sunday, that low pressure is still there and another batch of wet weather will start to push and from the west, gradually drifting its way north and east. into sunday afternoon, the heaviest of the rain likely across southern scotland in northwest england, perhaps england

and wales with showers, largely fine and wales with showers, largely fine and dry. at that low pressure not moving very far very fast at all, so it still with us monday and tuesday, plenty of isobars, the winds will strengthen, gale force gusts of wind are likely. so welcome news for gardeners and growers out there that it looks likely the first week of september will start to feel quite autumnal.
