hello, i'm karin giannone. this is outside source. after two years of brutal fighting, a peace deal is reached in ethiopia's civil war. the oath ethiopian government had promised unhindered where millions are in desperate need of aid. in other news: benjamin netanyahu is on course for election victory in israel's election — with the support of the far right. we'll be live injerusalem.

a u—turn from russia freeing up grain export is rejoined three days after pulling out. a move which risked worsening global hunger. a move which risked worsening global hunger. and the us central bank announces its fourth straight three—quarters of a point rate hike. today raise the policy in dress rate by .75 points and we continue to anticipate on growing dues ongoing raises will be appropriate. huge breakthrough in ethiopia. the government — and tigrayan rebels — have agreed to a truce to end two years of civil war. the conflict has left millions of people in desperate need of aid. peace talks — facilitated by the african union — have been taking place in south africa. this is the mediator. the two parties in the ethiopian conflict have formally agreed to the cessation of hostilities.

ina in a statement posted online ethiopians prime minister said... this is what the representative of the to grand said. we this is what the representative of the to grand said.— the to grand said. we will do everything — the to grand said. we will do everything in _ the to grand said. we will do everything in our _ the to grand said. we will do everything in our power - the to grand said. we will do everything in our power to i the to grand said. we will do i everything in our power to stop the to grand said. we will do - everything in our power to stop this war. note that we're here to at least explore the opportunity to see if we can make this, it will come not only to the people of to great but the entire population. the conflict began almost two years ago today between regional forces from tigray and ethiopia's federal army and its allies — including fighters from neighbouring eritrea. a truce was negotiated in march but fell apart five months later. fighting restarted and has continued even during these latest peace talks.

in recent months — government troops have captured a string of towns from tigrayan rebels. meanwhile, those living in tigray continue to suffer. according to the world health organization, almost 90% of tigrayans need food aid and about a third of the region's children are suffering from malnutrition. the bbc�*s kalkidan yibeltal, has been following the talks in south africa. it is a watershed moment and this is what millions of tigrayans have been looking for and hoping for for the past few years. it's still the beginning of the process and it still has to be implemented. but for now, the two representatives of the two warring parties have sent accolades and they call each other brothers as a sign of de—escalation. the head of the united nations is among those who have welcomed the deal, according to his spokesperson.

the us state department says... i am nowjoined by the bbc�*s beverly ochieng from nairobi. do we know what brought about this breakthrough? it do we know what brought about this breakthrough?— breakthrough? it was the days of talks that have _ breakthrough? it was the days of talks that have been _ breakthrough? it was the days of talks that have been taking - breakthrough? it was the days of talks that have been taking place was up initially there had been installed last month because a breaking of the truce there has been deep mistrust between the two parties today's agreement is quite a significant step, given the fact you are marking two years since the war broke out. they came to agreed to the first, they would immediately end hostilities, which is a big step for the others that they would restore services and humanitarian aid to many in need. also a political consensus to some extent with some of the causes and the agreement. it’s with some of the causes and the agreement-— with some of the causes and the agreement. it's only a few hours since the news _ agreement. it's only a few hours since the news broke _ agreement. it's only a few hours since the news broke about - agreement. it's only a few hoursj since the news broke about what agreement. it's only a few hours - since the news broke about what sort of reaction has there been, how much optimism is there about this holding? i

very much- — benjamin netanyahu is on the brink of a dramatic comeback — following israel's fifth election in under four years. with nearly all the votes counted — he's on course to win a majority in parliament with the help of the far—right. these were the scenes at his likud party headquarters overnight. his supporters chanted "bibi, king of israel". and he had this message. translation: we've achieved a huge level of trust from the people - of israel because it turns out again that the likud party is the largest party of israel by a significant and big margin above all other parties. i've been in a few campaign so i can tell you, we still need to wait for the real results. but one thing is already clear, our way, the way of the likud has proven itself. benjamin netanyahu needs

61 seats to govern. with 86% of the votes counted — his party likud party has 32 seats. he's expected to form a coalition with two ultra—orthodox parties who won 19 seats and the far—right religious zionist party — which has taken 14 seats. so, benjamin netanyahu is on track for a record 6th term in office. tom bateman is injerusalem. a comeback for mr netanyahu more than a year out of office. and remember, one of the defining features of his last months as a prime minister has been the start of a trial for corruption allegations of bribery and fraud. that had really entrenched the divisions over here in society. that coalition that ousted him united really only by desire to keep him out of office, it couldn't stay together, it suffered from defections and so he has mounted a comeback. the current projections of the vote counts is that he will get around 65

seats for his right wing religious a parliamentary party while giving him a clear majority in israel's parliament. the dynamic among all of this as you were hearing has been the rise of the extremist far right in that election campaign period. thejewish power party led by itamar ben—gvir is a key part of that. ben—gvir is seen as the biggest star of the election. he's a controversial figure who has been convicted of racist incitement against arabs. at his party headquarters on tuesday, his supporters cheering. the public wants an absolute separation between those and those who undermine it. the time has come that we go back to being in charge of our country!

ben—gvir ran on a highly controversial platform, including israeli annexation of the occupied west bank — home to around 2.9 million palestinians and the forcible transfer of some of the country's arab—israeli population. he also wants to grant legal immunity to israeli soldiers who shoot at palestinians. last month, mr ben—gvir made headlines when he was filmed pulling out a gun after being targeted with a stone thrown by palestinians in occupied eastjerusalem. he called for police to shoot the culprits. many are worried that he may now get a top post. many are worried that he may now get a top post. next lets hear from aaron miller — a former us state department negotiator. 46—year—old itamar ben—gvir, a rising star who got 10% of israelis to vote for this kind of extremist party is a bad headline and it's a bad trend line if you believe in israel as a democracy and pluralist society. and let me show you these pictures

from a predominantly arab part ofjerusalem. religious zionist supporters celebrated their electoral victory by taunting local palestinians — leading to violence. let's get the latest analysis form the bbc�*sjoel greenberg. religious zionism appears to have won 14 seats, which would make it the third largest party. how much power are they likely to have? there are auoin power are they likely to have? there are going to — power are they likely to have? there are going to be _ power are they likely to have? there are going to be the _ power are they likely to have? there are going to be the third _ power are they likely to have? ii—iiff are going to be the third largest faction in parliament if these results are confirmed. they will be a very good bargaining position with netanyahu when he is forming the new government. you talk about ben—gvir mentioned earlier in the programme is holding out for the public security ministry, which means he would be responsible for the police. and there will be tough talks about that position but it may well go to him in the end. they are in a very good bargaining position considering the number of seats they have in

parliament. the number of seats they have in parliament-— the number of seats they have in parliament. , , , ., parliament. many must be wondering wh it parliament. many must be wondering why it likud. — parliament. many must be wondering why it likud. and _ parliament. many must be wondering why it likud, and mainstream - parliament. many must be wondering why it likud, and mainstream white l why it likud, and mainstream white party why would they form an alliance described as racist and extremist? mr alliance described as racist and extremist?— alliance described as racist and extremist? ~ . ., , extremist? mr netanyahu actually tried to bring _ extremist? mr netanyahu actually tried to bring to _ extremist? mr netanyahu actually tried to bring to gather _ extremist? mr netanyahu actually tried to bring to gather a - extremist? mr netanyahu actuallyj tried to bring to gather a marriage of two factions, one of which is ben—gvirjewish powerfaction because they thought it would bolster the right bloc in parliament that supports m. i think his main consideration was electoral maximum number of seats with him he want to break the 60 seat threshold to get a majority in the hundred and 20 member parliament. this alliance is just an alliance of necessity in order to get that majority in parliament. but it will become something of a in israel's foreign relation if they are members of party in the cabinet. is a complicated issue for mr netanyahu but he did need them to get the crucial parliamentary majority that he seems not to have won. you mention foreign _ he seems not to have won. you mention foreign relations. i'm wondering how this is likely to

impact israel's foreign relation, the us with up us hopes the next israeli government ensures tolerance for minorities. that israeli government ensures tolerance for minorities-— for minorities. that of course runs re for minorities. that of course runs pretty counter _ for minorities. that of course runs pretty counter to the _ for minorities. that of course runs pretty counter to the ideology - for minorities. that of course runs pretty counter to the ideology and j pretty counter to the ideology and position of what ben—gvir put forward. he will have to navigate very carefully between his coalition loyalties and to enlist people in his cabinets, he said he will give them ministries. between that and between israel's face of the world, it's going to be a complicated manoeuvre to for him. the first thing he wanted to do was get this victory, get this majority in parliament so he can form a government for him. the first thing he wanted to do was get this victory, get this majority in parliament so he can form a government. after that the extreme right wing partners and other foreign relations that israel has the face and other issues he has to deal with as prime minister. another bi issue deal with as prime minister. another big issue he — deal with as prime minister. another big issue he has _ deal with as prime minister. another big issue he has to _ deal with as prime minister. another big issue he has to deal— deal with as prime minister. another big issue he has to deal with, - big issue he has to deal with, netanyahu legal challenges, his

in another development — mr sunak has reversed his decision not to attend next week's cop27 climate summit in egypt, following widespread criticism. ben wright reports. reporter: are you failing - on immigration, prime minister? a week in charge and his government's competence is under question. rishi sunak headed off to the commons for only his second question time as prime minister, with britain's immigration and asylum system in the spotlight. in particular, overcrowded conditions at this holding centre at manston in kent and the continuing problem of small boats crossing the channel. describing the asylum system as broken the labour leader tried to keep the political heat on home secretary suella braverman. 4000 people at the manston air force base, massively overcrowded. all sorts of diseases breaking out. so, did the home secretary receive legal advice that she should move people out? yes or no? rishi sunak said he couldn't share government legal advice but stood by ms braverman.

since september, 30 more hotels with 4,500 new beds. appointing a senior general to control the situation at manston and indeed, increasing the number of staff there by almost a half, mr speaker. these are significant steps to demonstrate that we are getting a grip of this system. but this is a serious and escalating problem. we will make sure that we control our borders and we will always do it fairly and compassionately, because that's the right thing. "a serious and escalating problem," the prime minister said, teeing up this attack from keir starmer. why doesn't he get a proper home secretary, scrap the rwanda gimmick, crack down on smuggling gangs, end the small boat crossings, speed up asylum claims and agree an international deal on refugees? start governing for once and get a grip. mr speaker, the right honourable gentleman rightly raised the topic of national security because it is important,

but this is the person who in 2019 told the bbc, and i quote, "i do think jeremy corbyn would make a great prime minister." mr sunak�*s judgment on climate change is under scrutiny too. last week, number ten said he was too busy dealing with economic problems here to attend the cop climate summit in egypt next week. but today he changed his mind. there is no long—term prosperity without action on climate change and there is no energy security without investment in renewables. that's why i will attend cop27 next week, to deliver, mr speaker, on glasgow's legacy of building a secure, clean and sustainable future. i think it's quite extraordinary that he didn't recognise the seriousness of this climate meeting right at the start. i think it is that he's been shamed into doing it by so many people saying that it's the wrong decision. fixing an economic crisis is one of the challenges rishi sunak faces, but he's already making decisions that will define what sort

of prime minister he intends to be. ben wright, bbc news, westminster. russia has agreed to rejoin the black sea grain export deal three days after it pulled out over an attack on its naval base in occupied crimea. it now says it's received assurances from kyiv that the grain corridor would not be used to attack its fleet. here's russia's president. translation: russia reservesl the right to withdraw from these agreements if the guarantees are breached by ukraine. in any case, even if russia pulls out of this deal we will as we said earlier, be ready to supply the entire volume of grain supplied from ukraine to the poorest country, which is only 4%. the kremlin halted its backing of the deal on saturday accusing ukraine of using a safety corridor to launch this attack in sevastapol. russia blamed ukraine, while ukraine called the russian accusations a "false pretext". the export corridor is incredibly

important for global food security. after russia invaded ukraine in february, it imposed a blockade on ukraine's black sea ports, trapping about 20 million tonnes of grain meant for export — along with maize and sunflower oil. ukraine is a major supplier of key crops and the blockade contributed to a globalfood prices and the price of everyday items like bread and pasta went up. but injuly a deal between ukraine and russia was brokered by turkey and the un — leading to a resumption of grain exports through the black sea ports. the greendale is set to expire on the 10th of november and that's likely to put pressure on leaders on the 15th of november president putin is in invited. of november president putin is in invited. to explain the effect that had, here's our correspondent in kyiv, catherine byaru hanga. thank you forjoining us for the prussian said rest and sanctions were part of the reasons for withdrawing from the screen deal. do

you think were going to see president putin using food security as a weapon? he president putin using food security as a weapon?— as a weapon? he has been all year and i as a weapon? he has been all year and i exoect _ as a weapon? he has been all year and i exoect we — as a weapon? he has been all year and i expect we will— as a weapon? he has been all year and i expect we will see _ and i expect we will see president putin continued to do that. president putin created the food crisis by invading the ukraine and targeting ukrainian food exports. now he is playing a game of either participating or pulling back his support for the grain deal and we can expect that game to continue for the next few weeks. we have about two weeks until a g20 summit and a few weeks after that grain deal expires for that president putin i think will try to spend his time putting maximum pressure on global partners to give him a greater leverage in orderfor him to partners to give him a greater leverage in order for him to stay partners to give him a greater leverage in orderfor him to stay in this deal. this is a typical pattern for president putin to create a crisis and then to be indispensable to solve it. 50 crisis and then to be indispensable to solve it. ., _, crisis and then to be indispensable to solve it. ., .., ., to solve it. so the forthcoming date fast approaching. — to solve it. so the forthcoming date fast approaching, the _ to solve it. so the forthcoming date fast approaching, the expiring - to solve it. so the forthcoming date fast approaching, the expiring of. fast approaching, the expiring of the grain deal, president putin is going to be using that as leverage

fact that you would sit down in a normal forum fact that you would sit down in a normalforum in a beautiful tropical coral two island sit well coral two island doesn't sit well with many western leaders. and yet they are our friends at the table and also them for president putin that you have china, who will be attending as well for them and the other former bricks countries as they are called, brazil and india, south africa who are probably more willing to hear out what putin has to say. this is going to give him more of an influence in this forum that he would and many others like the g8 that that he would and many others like the gs that he is no longer part of, in which he doesn't have friends. thank you so much for the kristine berzina joining us in washington. lets turn to the us. the federal reserve has raised interest rates by another 0.75% in a bid to bring down inflation. it's the sixth rate rise in a row and the sharpest increase in interest rates since the 1980s.

significantly. we started a .2% in september, which is still very elevated from the levels the fed wants to see. and so the fed today is taking more action even though mr powell also pointed to the fact that there could be smaller increases going forward. irate there could be smaller increases going forward-— there could be smaller increases going forward. we don't have a lot of time but — going forward. we don't have a lot of time but i _ going forward. we don't have a lot of time but i want _ going forward. we don't have a lot of time but i want to _ going forward. we don't have a lot of time but i want to ask _ going forward. we don't have a lot of time but i want to ask you, - going forward. we don't have a lot of time but i want to ask you, so l of time but i want to ask you, so many people with mortgages both in the uk, the us and other parts of the uk, the us and other parts of the world watching these interest rates so anxiously because they are mortgage is such a crucial part of their outgoings each month what should they be thinking? i their outgoings each month what should they be thinking?- should they be thinking? i think a-eole should they be thinking? i think people who _ should they be thinking? i think people who want _ should they be thinking? i think people who want to _ should they be thinking? i think people who want to take - should they be thinking? i think people who want to take out. should they be thinking? i think people who want to take out a i people who want to take out a mortgage might very well wait to see if they can take out later when interest rates stop rising or even go down a little further. for those who have floating rates mortgages, see if they can fix them. the problem is very much here in the us, we've seen all the rise to over 7%

recently, that's of course a huge increase from what they've been out. that is been putting quite a dent onto the market. i think for people who want to buy a home, if they can wait probably a good time to wait and see if prices can come down for needs to reflect some of the increases in mortgage rates put up seen companies struggle with higher financing costs for debt and other items. this is something that is very widespread, to see this increase in cost for capital if you are a good neck taking out a mortgage, your business or tries to take out a loan, if you're a bond in the bond market. this is a very widespread feeling. i'm afraid it's going to go on for a little bit longer. 50 going to go on for a little bit lonaer. . going to go on for a little bit loner, . ., going to go on for a little bit lonaer. . ., ., ,. ,, longer. so much more to discuss with thank ou longer. so much more to discuss with thank you very _ longer. so much more to discuss with thank you very much _ for the just to remind you of the breaking news in the last few hours that a cease—fire deal has been reached between the

ethiopian government and the two grand forces in the north of ethiopia. that has been mediated by the african union in talks that have been going on for some time now in south africa. we will be back with more on that and all of our stories in a couple of minutes. stayed with us. good evening. well, some real autumnal weather across the country today with heavy rain and high winds. and actually, if we take a look at the satellite picture from earlier combined with the radar, we can see this great big swirl of cloud and rain and area of low pressure. that's been tracking its way eastwards across the country during wednesday, and as it cleared, actually brightening up through northern ireland, but those blustery winds still with us, as indeed they will be through the course of tonight. overnight, the rain's still lingering across parts of the southeast — that's probably still with us for a good part of thursday. further north across scotland,

another curl of rain, and that will be with us overnight as well. in between, a little bit drier, some clear skies, a few showers, temperatures where it's clear perhaps down to 4 degrees in newcastle. further south with the cloud and rain, it is remaining on the mild side, and once again around some western coasts towards the west of scotland in particular, it will be windy. so, first thing tomorrow, the cloud and rain still with us across parts of the southeast of england, really dragging its heels, but it should clear through the day. to the west of it, something a little bit drier with some sunshine, but still a number of showers in towards parts of west wales, down towards the far southwest across cornwall, through parts of northwest of england as well, in towards northern ireland. but much of scotland and much of the rest of england away from the southeast, some sunshine and a few showers, temperatures around 10—14 celsius north to south. then, as we head into thursday evening and overnight, you can see that a lot of the wet weather clears away. it will turn windy for a time towards the far southwest, and then this

ridge of high pressure begins to work its way in. that means dry and clear and, by friday morning, quite chilly, certainly across parts of scotland, even in towns and cities, close to freezing — in the countryside, subzero. so, it's a chilly start to friday, but a dry and fine start with plenty of crisp, autumnal sunshine. lighter winds compared with today and a few showers around, but probably the driest day of the week. temperatures once again 10—14 celsius north to south. and looking ahead — well, it's going to be quite wet on saturday during the day, but hopefully that rain should ease off as we head into saturday evening, bonfire night, and a number of showers on sunday, too. that's the forecast.

arab town in israel. talking to people there, people are hugely disappointed that the extreme right—wing party has managed to gain something like 15 seats. that does not bode well with people, arabs who... a large sector of the arab population in israel were hoping that they could be in the government and any future, but i think that has been a blow to this expectation. given that hopes were already quite low regarding any revival of the peace process, what has this latest development done to those? weill. peace process, what has this latest development done to those? well, i mean, development done to those? well, i mean. even — development done to those? well, i mean, even before _ development done to those? well, i mean, even before the _ development done to those? well, i mean, even before the selection, i development done to those? well, i l mean, even before the selection, not many people were talking about the peace process. none of the major

two—state is where most people are concerned. there's been international condemnation of north korea after it fired a record number of missiles into waters near south korea. seoul responded, in a major escalation in military tension between the two. pyongyang fired a total of 23 missiles, including one which landed less than 60 kilometres from the city of sokcho, crossing the de facto maritime border for the first time since the peninsula's division in 1945. the demarcation line marks the rough midway—point in the sea between the two koreas. the north has never accepted the boundary. hours later, seoul retaliated with warplanes firing three air—to—ground missiles over the disputed maritime demarcation line. pyongyang then fired six more missiles and a barrage of 100 artillery shells near the maritime border. here's one analyst's view of the significance of the day's events. it is precisely that one of these

missiles did land off of the south korean coast, so certainly, the residents in that area would've heard an air raid siren. absolutely terrifying reminder to the south koreans that this threat remains, and i think this is precisely what the north koreans want to do. they do want to remind the south koreans that, though they may be accustomed to all of these launches and provocations that have been going on for many, many years, they want to remind them that this threat exists. there's been lots more reaction. south korea's president yoon suk—yeol called it "an effective territorial invasion by a missile that crossed the northern limit line for the first time since the division" of the peninsula. in the us, white house national security spokesman john kirby said... charles michel, president of the european council, has tweeted that he's "outraged by the aggressive and irresponsible behaviour of pyongyang".

and here's japan's defence minister. translation: of these actions by north korea i threatened the peace and stability ofjapan — the region, _ as well as the international community - _ and are utterly unacceptable. they violate the united nations security council resolution, - which strongly condemned north korea and made a solemn protest _ against these actions _ via diplomatic channels in beijing. a reminder that north and south korea are technically still at war. let me take you back to 1953. one of the measures agreed upon by the two countries to bring about the korean troops. so, this is the moment the two sides agreed to an armistice, rather than a peace treaty, ending the korean war. today's escalation follows a record number of missile tests — 50 — by pyongyang this year. this was south korean and us fighterjets carrying out

precision bombing drills last month, in response to the north firing an intermediate—range ballistic missile overjapan. here's our correspondent in seoul, jean mackenzie, on the timing today. north korea says it is launching these missiles because it is annoyed with south korea and the us for holding large—scale military exercises, which it sees as a direct threat. it views these as its enemies preparing to invade, even though the us and south korea say that these are defensive exercises which they are only really holding in face of what they see as an increased threat posed by north korea. but essentially, you have a situation on the peninsula now where both sides are responding to each other and you have this military escalation that's building up. the thing that we need to be paying attention to is where things go from here. north korea just yesterday issued a pretty sober warning to south korea and the united states. they said that if these exercises continued, they would pay the most horrible price in history — a veiled threat that it is prepared to use nuclear

weapons against south korea. north korea has been continuing with its nuclear programme. we know that it has been refining some of its missiles to make that it is preparing to test a nuclear weapon for the first time in five years. we can speak to sung—yoon lee, professor of korean studies at the fletcher school, tufts university in massachusetts. thanks very much forjoining us. as we heard from our correspondent in seoul, north korea has warned of the most horrible price in history. how seriously do you think we should take that threat?— take that threat? north korea is arone to take that threat? north korea is prone to high-profile, _ take that threat? north korea is prone to high-profile, very - take that threat? north korea is i prone to high-profile, very strong prone to high—profile, very strong rhetorical backed up by evidence. and such is the way of this culture

and dynasty, a curious mix of mediaeval morays and foolish... one tends to patronise north korea. when the dictator in moscow makes a threat to its peaceful neighbour, leaders take heed, but when kim jong—un issued such a threat as he has many times this year, as long —— along with his sister, you can shrug it off. the latest missile in the barrage is a major step in north korea's strategy of graduated escalation. this is unprecedented firing of more than 20 missiles in a single day and more is coming our way for the region. this is an ominous development. i way for the region. this is an ominous development. i wanted to ask ou about ominous development. i wanted to ask you about what — ominous development. i wanted to ask you about what north _ ominous development. i wanted to ask you about what north korea _ ominous development. i wanted to ask you about what north korea is - ominous development. i wanted to ask you about what north korea is being i you about what north korea is being accused of doing, covertly supplying

to africa, suggesting that north korea has multiple customers for north korea's weapons. the tenacious north korea's weapons. the tenacious north korea's weapons. the tenacious north korea shares with... why not just ship them into russia? the fact that russia is doing this suggests that russia is doing this suggests that north korea is in breach of the security council resolutions. i that north korea is in breach of the security council resolutions.- security council resolutions. i want to ask ou security council resolutions. i want to ask you professor, _ security council resolutions. i want to ask you professor, two - security council resolutions. i want | to ask you professor, two questions that you've probably been asked a lot. what is pyongyang's objective and why now? lot. what is pyongyang's ob'ective and why mi lot. what is pyongyang's ob'ective and why nowafi lot. what is pyongyang's ob'ective and why now? well, if you were to ask kim jong-un — and why now? well, if you were to ask kim jong-un why _ and why now? well, if you were to ask kim jong-un why does - and why now? well, if you were to ask kim jong-un why does north l and why now? well, if you were to - ask kim jong-un why does north korea ask kim jong—un why does north korea need to exist when there is a very successful, very prosperous, legitimate korean state across the border, they will be rather discourteous. why do you need to exist, as a cruel dictator presiding

in the kaliningrad oblast region has been opened for flights from the middle east and north africa, i have decided to take measures that will strengthen security on the polish border with the kaliningrad oblast by sealing this border. therefore, the work undertaken by sappers, by soldiers of the polish army, on the construction of a temporary dam with the kaliningrad region, will begin today. kaliningrad is a piece of land sandwiched between lithuania and poland that serves as a base for several russian military assets it has become a flashpoint since the invasion of ukraine, with russia accusing lithuania of using eu sanctions to impose a blockade on the territory. polish soldiers have begun working on the barrier along the border, which will be 2.5 metres high when it's finished at the end of 2023. poland says it's trying to avoid a repeat of the crisis on its border with belarus last year. warsaw and the eu said the belarusian leader, a key ally of russia, was luring migrants to the border

with the false promise of easy entry into the bloc. joining me now is wojciech przybylski, editor in chief of online magazine visegrad insight. thank you for talking to us. tell us about the thinking behind poland doing this. the about the thinking behind poland doina this. ., �* , about the thinking behind poland doina this. ., �*, ., . doing this. the government's logic is on one hand _ doing this. the government's logic is on one hand typical— doing this. the government's logic is on one hand typical far-right - is on one hand typicalfar—right agenda which is anti—migrant. at the same time, it's responding to a very real crisis that has been installed on our border. it has been installed in collaboration by belarus and russia. since about mid—2021,

through belarus, there were people on both sides, so this was snuggled or pushed through the border —— smuggled through the border in places not designed to do so. they were essentially illegal crossings. that was recognised as a serious security breach in response to which the country that involved to later install the security. so, kaliningrad now is also 210 km long that serves as a potential security risk.

is there already evidence this is happening or may be to happen that migrants would be encouraged to travel this way? the response to the security threats that russia presents itself is really pushing the boundaries further and further. and we know the drill. the physical border allowed for still 700 illegal countries in

salami slicing and other areas like the roll—out of broadband. he was also keen to set up the wider context that some of this money would be used to fund increases. also that more money would go to low income households. they've been doubling budget for fuel insecurity funds. the opposition parties here questioned whether this was the time. but i think it's important to say that this is just the beginning. john's when he said the autumn statement was likely to set out eye—watering cut ahead.

this is outside source live from the bbc news room. after two years of fighting, a peace deal is reached and ethiopia's civil war with sides promising unhindered humanitarian access to a region in urgent need of aid. the football world cup kicks off in qatar in 18 days' time — the first time it's being staged in the middle east. fifa, world football's governing body, claimed it would be the first carbon neutral tournament. but environmentalists are furious and are now challenging that claim. in an open letter, a group of professional footballers are also demanding that fifa drops its carbon neutral claim, with one telling the bbc that the tournament is an absolute disaster in terms of its environmental footprint. our sports editor dan roan reports. despite being staged in the desert kingdom of qatar, organisers of the upcoming world cup have long hailed the green credentials of the event.

this recyclable stadium is one of a number of initiatives promoted by high—profile tournament ambassadors. the qatar world cup has set a real example in sustainability and what can be achieved. but today, fifa's official forecasts of the event's likely carbon footprint was disputed by one renowned climate scientist. they're estimating 3.6 billion tonnes, we think it's way over the ten million tonne mark, 3.6 million tonnes, so three times that at least. the idea they have somehow made it green buy cheap, neutral, thatjust... that doesn't stack up at all. despite the impact of constructing seven new stadiums in tiny qatar, one of the highest carbon emitting countries per capita in the world, and the flights of more than one million fans, fifa claims the footprint will be offset.

ourjoint pledge to make this next major tournament- fully carbon neutral. but the bbc can reveal that that claim is now the subject of a series of formal complaints by environmental campaigners, to advertising standards authorities in five countries across europe. this one, filed in the uk, says the statements related to the carbon neutrality of the world cup were wrong and likely to mislead consumers, relying on deeply flawed carbon accounting calculations. meanwhile, a host of footballers, including norway international morten thorsby, and signed an open letter to fifa asking to scrap its claims of carbon neutrality. this tournament is an absolute disaster in terms of also its environmental footprint. world cup is extremely important, but at the same time... but at the same time, we have to make it more sustainable, we have to work at finding solutions to make it better. fifa says it is taking concrete steps such as energy—efficient

qatar's organising committee, meanwhile, emphasised no internal flights would be required at this most compact of world cups, pointing to a fleet of hundreds of electric buses and vowing the stadium would remain in use after the event. sorry about that. that was our sports editor, dan roan. the area surrounding the world's largest iphone plant is under a new covid—19 lockdown in central china. zhengzhou is the capital of henan. the city is home to 10 million people. it's also home to the foxconn plant, which produces apple's iphone 14. this week, the city reported 167 local covid—19 infections prompting a lockdown in one district, as the bbc�*s katie silver explains. for the next week, residents of the zhengzhou airport economy zone are banned from going out. public transport services are suspended and officials say they will "crack down

on all kinds of violations". now, one site impacted is the foxconn plant, which is nothing short of mega — 200,000 employees, many living in dormitories who, together, make the majority of the world's iphones. the plant has already been getting attention. last week, these images of workers trying to escape the factory were shared on social media. many workers feared a zero—covid lockdown after cases were reported on site. many managed to get out. we're told some workers walked over 100 kilometres back to their home towns to avoid restrictions. here's katie silver again. it emerged workers were fleeing. there were reports of food and water shortages and people being fenced in. now, the taiwanese company says it will quadruple the bonuses that workers are eligible to receive each day, as well as offering extra incentives to work longer hours. now, many are fearful the impact this may have on iphone production, particularly in the lead—up to christmas.

but foxconn says the manufacturing will not be impacted, as much of it will be moved to their xinjiang plant. you can reach me on twitter — i'm @karinbbc. back with outside source in a couple of minutes. good evening. well, some real autumnal weather across the country today with heavy rain and high winds. and actually, if we take a look at the satellite picture from earlier combined with the radar, we can see this great big swirl of cloud and rain and area of low pressure. that's been tracking its way eastwards across the country during wednesday, and as it cleared, actually brightening up through northern ireland, but those blustery winds still with us, as indeed they will be through the course of tonight. overnight, the rain's still lingering across parts of the southeast — that's probably still with us for a good part of thursday. further north across scotland, another curl of rain, and that will be with us overnight as well.

in between, a little bit drier, some clear skies, a few showers, temperatures where it's clear perhaps down to 4 degrees in newcastle. further south with the cloud and rain, it is remaining on the mild side, and once again around some western coasts towards the west of scotland in particular, it will be windy. so, first thing tomorrow, the cloud and rain still with us across parts of the southeast of england, really dragging its heels, but it should clear through the day. to the west of it, something a little bit drier with some sunshine, but still a number of showers in towards parts of west wales, down towards the far southwest across cornwall, through parts of northwest of england as well, in towards northern ireland. but much of scotland and much of the rest of england away from the southeast, some sunshine and a few showers, temperatures around 10—14 celsius north to south. then, as we head into thursday evening and overnight, you can see that a lot of the wet weather clears away. it will turn windy for a time towards the far southwest, and then this ridge of high pressure begins to work its way in.

that means dry and clear and, by friday morning, quite chilly, certainly across parts of scotland, even in towns and cities, close to freezing — in the countryside, subzero. so, it's a chilly start to friday, but a dry and fine start with plenty of crisp, autumnal sunshine. lighter winds compared with today and a few showers around, but probably the driest day of the week. temperatures once again 10—14 celsius north to south. and looking ahead — well, it's going to be quite wet on saturday during the day, but hopefully that rain should ease off as we head into saturday evening, bonfire night, and a number of showers on sunday, too. that's the forecast.

hello, i'm karin giannone. this is outside source. after two years of brutalfighting, a peace deal is reached in ethiopia's civil war. the ethiopian government and tigrayan rebels have promised unhindered humanitarian access to a region where millions are in urgent need of aid. in other news: benjamin netanyahu is on course for victory in israel's election with the support of the far right. we'll have more from jerusalem. a u—turn from russia over

the dealfreeing up grain exports from ukraine. it's rejoined three days after pulling out, a move which risked worsening global hunger. and another steep interest rate hike from the us central bank, who would have a special report from st petersburg. afterjosef stalin stop to citizens, after they fell foul, they were often labelled enemies of the people. after invading ukraine, vladimir putin vowed to cleanse russia of what he claimed the traitors commerce, and the —— some—word—mack. and... me the -- some-word-mack. and... we have raised — the —— some—word—mack. and... - have raised our point by 875 basis points and we continue to anticipate the increases will be appropriate.

huge breakthrough in ethiopia. the government and tigrayan rebels have agreed to a truce to end two years of civil war. the conflict has left millions of people in desperate need of aid. peace talks facilitated by the african union have been taking place in south africa. this is the mediator. the two parties in the ethiopian conflict have formally agreed to the cessation of hostilities as well as the systematic, orderly, to the cessation of hostilities. in a statement posted online, ethiopia's prime minister said "our commitment to peace remains steadfast. and our commitment to collaborating for the implementation of the agreement is equally strong." this is what the representative for the tigrayan delegation said. we have everything to do in our power, to at least explore the opportunity to see if we can make

this and it will come with all the people of tigray, but it will also impact the population. the conflict began almost two years ago today between regional forces from tigray and ethiopia's federal army and its allies — including fighters from neighbouring eritrea. a truce was negotiated in march but fell apart five months later. fighting restarted and has continued even during these latest peace talks. in recent months — government troops have captured a string of towns from tigrayan rebels. meanwhile, those living in tigray continue to suffer. according to the world health organization, almost 90% of tigrayans need food aid and about a third of the region's children are suffering from malnutrition. the bbc�*s kalkidan yibeltal, has been following the talks in south africa. it is a watershed moment and this is what millions of tigrayans have been looking for and hoping for for the past few years. it's still the beginning of the process and it still has to be implemented.

but for now, the two representatives of the two warring parties have sent ——signed agreements and they call each other brothers as a sign of de—escalation. the head of the united nations is among those who have welcomed the deal, according to his spokesperson. "it is very much a welcome first step, which we hope can start to bring some solace to the millions of ethiopian civilians that of ethiopian civilians ....that have really suffered during this conflict," he said. the us state department, meanwhile, says the agreement "represents an important step for peace". it was the days of talks that have been taking place was up initially there had been false starts last month because a breaking of the truce there has been deep mistrust between the two parties today's agreement is quite a significant step, given the fact you are marking two years

since the war broke out. they came to agreed to the first, they would immediately end hostilities, which is a big step for the others that they would restore services and humanitarian aid to many in need. also a political consensus to some extent with some of the causes and the agreement. it's only a few hours since the news broke about what sort of reaction has there been, how much optimism is there about this holding? i think it's still very cautious optimism. in the days leading up to this particular deal there was rhetoric coming from both sides that didn't seem quite positive. there were tweets representing the left and he talked about still making advances in the two great region eritrea which was noticeably not present noticeably not present during this disagreement even during talks with him it wasn't even mentioned in the deal. it is also concerned there have been breaches, the breach put in place in march

and august, there was an outbreak of fighting. also the fact that these talks have taken so long to take place. and the fact that there wasn't any trust in the mediating process in that mediator, un envoy and even the modalities. you touched on the humanitarian situation, the figures are just staggering — 90% of the population needing food aid. tell us more about the extent of the suffering that has throughout the conflict. as much as we can tell because there is not much access to the region, is there? yes there's been a blockade since the war broke out in november 2020. there were some attempts to restore services injune 2021, but since then there's been power blackouts, there's been no intervention. it's been very difficult to get a clear picture. ——internet. human rights reports talking about violations, the lack of education, the fact that many people cannot dictate with ads other

preventable diseases with up than 2,000 children having died as a result of malnutrition. a lack of food in many places for the not operating because there is still some degree of fighting taken place was up sense they have recaptured various parts of to grey they have reported that they are distributing. there is still such a severe need. benjamin netanyahu is on the brink of a dramatic comeback — following israel's fifth election in under four years. with nearly all the votes counted — he's on course to win a majority in parliament with the help of the far—right. these were the scenes at his likud party headquarters overnight. his supporters chanted "bibi, king of israel". and he had this message. translation: we've achieved a huge level of trust from the people - of israel because it turns out again that the likud party is the largest party of israel

by a significant and big margin above all other parties. i've been in a few campaign so i can tell you, we still need to wait for the real results. but one thing is already clear, our way, the way of the likud, has proven itself. benjamin netanyahu needs 61 seats to govern. with 86% of the votes counted, his party likud party has 32 seats. he's expected to form a coalition with two ultra—orthodox parties who won 19 seats and the far—right religious zionist party — which has taken 14 seats. so, benjamin netanyahu is on track for a record sixth term in office. tom bateman is injerusalem. a comeback for mr netanyahu, more than a year out of office. and remember, one of the defining features of his last months as a prime minister has been the start of a trial for corruption allegations of bribery and fraud. that had really entrenched

the divisions over here in society. that coalition that ousted him, united really only by desire to keep him out of office, it couldn't stay together, it suffered from defections and so, he has mounted a comeback. the current projections of the vote counts is that he will get around 65 seats for his right wing religious a parliamentary party while giving him a clear majority in israel's parliament. the dynamic among all of this as you were hearing has been the rise of the extremist far right in that election campaign period. thejewish power party led by itamar ben—gvir is a key part of that. ben—gvir is seen as the biggest star of the election. he's a controversial figure who has been convicted of racist incitement against arabs. at his party headquarters on tuesday, his supporters chanted "death to arabs", while he had this message. cheering.

translation: the public wants - an absolute separation between those loyal to the state of israel and those who undermine it. the time has come that we go back to being in charge of our country! itamar ben—gvir ran on a highly controversial platform, including the israeli annexation of the occupied west bank — home to around 3 million palestinians and the forcible transfer of some of the country's arab—israeli population. he also wants to grant legal immunity to israeli soldiers who shoot at palestinians. last month, mr ben—gvir made headlines when he was filmed pulling out a gun after being targeted with a stone thrown by palestinians in occupied eastjerusalem. he called for police to shoot the culprits.

you are with outside source in from the bbc newsroom. russia has agreed to rejoin the black sea grain export deal three days after it pulled out over an attack on its naval base in occupied gremio. —— crimea. it now says it's received assurances from kyiv that the grain corridor would not be used to attack its fleet. here's russia's president. translation: russia reservesl the right to withdraw from these agreements if the guarantees are breached by ukraine. in any case, even if russia pulls out of this deal we will as we said earlier,

be ready to supply the entire volume of grain supplied from ukraine to the poorest country, which is only 4%. the kremlin halted its backing of the deal on saturday, accusing ukraine of using a safety corridor to launch this attack in sevastapol. russia blamed ukraine, while ukraine called the russian accusations a "false pretext". translation: the indirect obstacles for the expert — translation: the indirect obstacles for the expert -- _ translation: the indirect obstacles for the expert -- export _ translation: the indirect obstacles for the expert -- export of _ translation: the indirect obstacles for the expert -- export of photos i for the expert —— export of photos to foreign countries is the reason. it was an integral part of the deal but until now, until this part of the deal has not been resolved. difficulties persist and indirect restrictions have a negative impact in one way or another. the export corridor is incredibly important for global food security. after russia invaded ukraine in february, it imposed a blockade on ukraine's black sea ports, trapping about 20 million tonnes

of grain meant for export, along with maize and sunflower oil. ukraine is a major supplier of key crops and the blockade contributed to a rise in globalfood prices and the price of everyday items like bread and pasta went up. but injuly a deal between ukraine and russia was brokered by turkey and the un, leading to a resumption of grain exports through the black sea ports. he had seen that global food prices had started to fall once this deal was agreed and the food was also able to reach millions of people who were suffering from a drought and hunger. eight months after moscow's invasion of ukraine, controls and russians are becoming more repressive with tough new penalties for those who dare to protest. some academics are drawing comparisons with a dark past, when josef drawing comparisons with a dark past, whenjosef stalin ruled the soviet union with an iron fist, millions of russians died during his brutal dictatorship. part of history that russia tries to forget. steve

consider pausing rate hikes. a quick look at how the benchmark indices ended today. down around 2.5, the tech heavy nasdaq is down 3.4 and the dowjones, is down 1.6. good evening. well, some real autumnal weather across the country today with heavy rain and high winds. and actually, if we take a look at the satellite picture from earlier, combined with the radar, we can see this great big swirl of cloud and rain and area of low pressure. that's been tracking its way eastwards across the country during wednesday, and as it cleared, actually brightening up through northern ireland, but those blustery winds still with us, as indeed they will be through the course of tonight. overnight, the rain's still lingering across parts of the southeast — that's probably still with us for a good part of thursday. further north across scotland, another curl of rain, and that will

be with us overnight as well. in between, a little bit drier, some clear skies, a few showers, temperatures where it's clear perhaps down to 4 degrees in newcastle. further south with the cloud and rain, it is remaining on the mild side, and once again around some western coasts towards the west of scotland in particular, it will be windy. so, first thing tomorrow, the cloud and rain still with us across parts of the southeast of england, really dragging its heels, but it should clear through the day. to the west of it, something a little bit drier with some sunshine, but still a number of showers in towards parts of west wales, down towards the far southwest across cornwall, through parts of northwest of england as well, in towards northern ireland. but much of scotland and much of the rest of england away from the southeast, some sunshine and a few showers, temperatures around 10—14 celsius north to south. then, as we head into thursday evening and overnight, you can see that a lot of the wet weather clears away. it will turn windy for a time towards the far southwest, and then this ridge of high pressure begins to work its way in.

that means dry and clear and, by friday morning, quite chilly, certainly across parts of scotland, even in towns and cities, close to freezing — in the countryside, subzero. so, it's a chilly start to friday, but a dry and fine start with plenty of crisp, autumnal sunshine. lighter winds compared with today and a few showers around, but probably the driest day of the week. temperatures once again 10—14 celsius north to south. and looking ahead — well, it's going to be quite wet on saturday during the day, but hopefully that rain should ease off as we head into saturday evening, bonfire night, and a number of showers on sunday, too.
