an inquestjury has found that errors by the force "materially contributed" to the deaths of raneem oudeh and her mother, khaola saleem. they were attacked in solihull by raneem's estranged husband in 2018. he's serving a minimum of 32 years in prison for their murders. west midlands police has apologised to the family. our correspondent phil mackie was at the inquest in birmingham and you may find details in his report distressing. raneem oudeh on the left, and her mother, khaola saleem, were the victims of domestic violence. the mother and daughter badly let down by the pool who should have been protecting them. west midlands police have failed khaola and raneem beyond imagination. they had so many opportunities to save their lives. right up until the end. both were murdered while on the phone, to the police, begging for help. days before the pair were murdered a court granted an order preventing janbaz tarin from going anywhere near his former partner, but this is him,

following her on a night out. there was a row, you can see raneem's mother intervening. then she made a series of 999 calls, but no—one came. what's the location of the emergency? hi, ijust called the police about half an hour ago, more than half an hour ago, and actually i'm in danger. my ex—partner came and he actually harmed me and harmed my mum, as well. the last call came later as she was being attacked and she and her mother were screaming. i felt like they really empowered the perpetrator, rather than helping the victim. she lost hope. slowly, slowly she started not breathing as much as she was before. this was tarin being arrested a few days later. he had been making threats for months, but despite repeated calls, the police never made an arrest. in a statement, west midlands police

said it should have done more to protect the women from a campaign of domestic abuse, and apologised to their families. the family said they hope the women's deaths would be a catalyst for change. the independent office for police conduct has carried out this investigation and said nine officers were served with misconduct notices. five of whom had management action taken against them, the other given summary training. meanwhile the force said it has added resources force said it has added resources for dealing with domestic violence, set up a special unit to review investigations so it hopes things like this do not happen again, sautee. —— sophie. a man has pleaded guilty to the murder of a law graduate — killed as she was walking home from a night out in east london last summer. zara aleena, who was 35, had just begun working at the high court. jordan mcsweeney — who had only recently been released from prison — also admitted sexually

assaulting her. helena wilkinson reports from the old bailey. to herfamily, zara aleena was independent, bighearted and a joy. a law graduate, she had started work at the royal courts ofjustice in london and was the happiest she had ever been. but, in the summer, her dreams, her life, ended. she was murdered by a stranger intent on finding a woman to attack. that stranger was this man, jordan mcsweeney. he had followed ms aleena as she walked home. he dragged her on to a driveway and sexually assaulted her. she died from multiple injuries after being repeatedly hit and kicked. today, at the old bailey, mcsweeney pleaded guilty to murder, and guilty to sexual assault. she was attacked while walking alone on a residential street. she had every right to be there. she had every right to feel safe. instead, she was the victim of shocking violence.

at an earlier hearing here at the old bailey, the court heard that mcsweeney had 28 previous convictions, for 69 separate offences, and when he murdered zara aleena, he was out on licence, having been released from prison less than two weeks earlier. mcsweeney will be sentenced for the brutal and savage murder of zara aleena next month. helena wilkinson, bbc news, at the old bailey. with just two days to go before the men's football world cup gets under way in qatar — football's governing body fifa has banned the sale of alcohol to fans inside the stadiums. it's a last—minute u—turn on a deal signed with qatar in 2010. budweiser — which had signed a multi—million dollar deal for rights to sell its beer at the matches — says there's nothing it can do about it. from qatar, here's our sports editor dan roan. the qatar world cup had already been shifted to winter. today at the 11th

hour, another unprecedented move of the goalposts. having told fans that he would be available at a stadium in a country where alcohol sales are tightly controlled, local pressure led to an late u—turn put statement, fifa said... budweiser, which paid £63 million to sponsor the world cup, try to make light of the situation in a now deleted tweet, but they could take legal action and this evening fans already here were unimpressed. i don't think it necessarily bodes well given they've had 12 years to think about these things and they are changing it so last—minute. in people will be more upset at the u—turn that not been able to actually drink. 2&1 u-turn that not been able to actually drink.— u-turn that not been able to actually drink. 24 hours ago at a lea actually drink. 24 hours ago at a legacy event _ actually drink. 24 hours ago at a legacy event in _ actually drink. 24 hours ago at a legacy event in doha _ actually drink. 24 hours ago at a legacy event in doha the - actually drink. 24 hours ago at a legacy event in doha the man i legacy event in doha the man responsible for delivering the world cup told me that all was on track.

elevate the status of their country but it is the human cost of such colossal investment that has brought with it unprecedented levels of scrutiny. thousands of migrant workers have died in qatar since 2010 and, while organisers insist very few were due to working with stadium construction, campaigners say official data is not reliable and recent reforms don't go far enough today a vocal critic of the tournament told me how he felt about being here. tournament told me how he felt about bein: here. , , ~ ., being here. there is this kind of cueas being here. there is this kind of queasy feeling _ being here. there is this kind of queasy feeling about _ being here. there is this kind of queasy feeling about it - being here. there is this kind of queasy feeling about it at - being here. there is this kind of queasy feeling about it at the i queasy feeling about it at the moment. there are significant issues around this world cup, obviously, with human rights issues with the building of the stadiums and workers' rights, and homophobia. so i think it is tainted. and because of that and other human rights issues. , , ._ , ., ., issues. currently players have had their sa , issues. currently players have had their say. also. — issues. currently players have had their say, also, with _ issues. currently players have had their say, also, with england - issues. currently players have had their say, also, with england and. their say, also, with england and wales among a number of teams wearing armbands as part of a non—discrimination campaign in a country where being gay is a legal

at the moment, only those with savings or assets of less than £23,250 are eligible for council care. the reforms would also have increased that threshold to £100,000, allowing people to keep more of their money. but those plans, due to be introduced next october, are now on the back burner for at least two years, and that has a human cost. paula connor is living with the twin problems facing the care system in england right now — finding care and the cost. it's been very, very tough. and i'm, i'm a tough person normally, but it's destroying me. it is. her 89—year—old husband mick has dementia. he was stuck in hospital for four months as she struggled to find a good care home with a place. he's moved into one an hour away. it costs £65,000 a year, eating up savings set aside for both their retirements.

£65,000 a year. it won't last more than two year,s at the most. years, at the most. i don't understand why, when you've worked hard all your life, you have to pay. all right, a small contribution maybe, but these kind of fees, just horrific. and then, of course, when all that goes, what do i live off? we will fix the crisis in social care once and for all. fixing social care was a key promise made by the conservatives, with the cap on care costs central to those plans. sir andrew dilnot, who devised the policy, says he's astounded by the delay, and the need for reform is urgent. we have a system that is creaking, that is falling apart, that is putting enormous pressure on the wonderful people who deliver the care, as well as the individuals who need the care, and theirfamilies. it is hard to think of a more vulnerable group than people in that position, and our system is something that we should

all be ashamed of. the government says the delay frees up money to help provide more support for older and disabled people right now. but these are reforms that jeremy hunt argued for before he became chancellor. i do believe in those reforms that andrew dilnot has championed very much, but in the end, this two—year delay means that we can increase funding available to local authorities by £4.7 billion over the next two years. that is the biggest increase we have ever had in social care. for paula and otherfamilies, more help now is vital, but so is a plan for the future. alison holt, bbc news. there's more analysis on the impact of the autumn statement — including a blog on what's expected

from our political editor chris mason on bbc news online — that's bbc.co.uk/news — and by using the bbc news app. the time is 18.18. our top story this evening. an inquest finds police failures contributed to the deaths of two women murdered while they were begging for help on the phone. coming up. a "game—changing" drug proven to delay the development of type 1 diabetes has been approved by regulators in the us. and on bbc london, more support with energy bills for households but residents on a communal heat network say they are missing out. we hear from one london charity helping young women in haringey, all made possible by children in need. they're built to bring gas from russia to western europe. now investigators say a series of blasts on two underwater gas pipelines earlier this year were the result of "serious sabotage". swedish prosecutors found traces of explosives near the pipelines. the explosions in late september in the baltic sea, close to the danish island bornholm, targeted the pipelines nord stream 1 and 2. it comes at a time of tension

between europe and russia over the war in ukraine and during an energy crisis. russia denies any involvement. our europe editor, katya adler has been given exclusive access to the underwater site of the blast and sent this report. this is a new front line in russia's conflict against ukraine and the west. vladimir putin has warned energy infrastructure how oil and gas travel from source to our homes is at risk. this is why the west believes him. three explosions were detonated on major gas lines between russia and europe earlier this autumn. moscow denies responsibility. hello, good morning. we set off in search of answers, with exclusive access and the help of underwater drone experts. look how the concrete casing around the pipe was ripped apart. that, say intelligence sources, would need the force of a huge car bomb.

an explosion or something really just bending this metal, and you can really... it's been shot up out the sea bed? yeah. we learned the damage was far more extensive than widely believed. but we may never know for sure what happened here. as we filmed, a danish surveillance plane circled nearby, and also... we can see a swedish warship, danish warship and also russian offshore boat. is that usual, this kind of activity? no, it's not usual at all. not usual at all. the backdrop to this sabotage is russia's war. the countries investigating here are keeping intelligence close to their chest. so that was ripped off the pipeline itself?

yes, at some point. but one thing has become clear from the pipeline debris. this explosion here in the baltic sea has heightened all of our awareness of the importance of undersea infrastructure, but also the huge difficulty in protecting them. our energy supplies rely on a spider web of subsea pipelines. also underwater are thousands of miles of internet cables, keeping us connected, and enabling trillions of pounds worth of financial transactions a day. you can see how vulnerable the system is. nato member norway is the main gas supplier now for the uk and eu. fears of sabotage and espionage means it has stepped up surveillance dramatically in the north sea. any further disruption of energy is obviously directly affecting european security. we see it as vital to protect it, and to provide a prolonged and steady presence.

it is the first time the navy here has taken media on this patrol. we joined officers investigating a growing number of drone sightings near the rigs. there's been a spate of arrests in norway of people suspected of spying for russia. political pressure is mounting. millions of families across europe fear the coming winter, and governments from france to the uk to germany want to know they really can rely on norway's energy supply. nato allies, including the uk, are scrambling to improve marine capabilities. if oil and gas infrastructure is attacked, and as you say, it is so crucial. could it be considered an act of war? an attack on allied critical infrastructure could trigger our collective defence clause. an attack on one ally can or will trigger the response

from the whole alliance. strong words nato would rather not act on, preferring to avoid military conflict with russia. but closer to our homes, moscow is waging non—conventional warfare, threatening our gas supply, hoping to destabilise europe and reduce support for kyiv. katya adler, bbc news, norway. heavy rainfall across scotland and north—east england has caused flooding, power cuts and transport problems. there have been major road closures in edinburgh and dundee — while the north—east of enlgand are among the places facing travel distruption to rail road and bus services. lorna gordon is in ballater. yes, a colossal amount of rain has fallen in parts of scotland over the past couple of days, a few miles down the road from here has had more raid in —— rain in the past 48—hours than the entire month of november. this is some of the highest rainfall

in scotland, it is causing disruption the train, there has been flooding on the roads and there are seven severe flood warnings in place for areas like here, in ballater, you can see the rise if floodwaters where the river has breached its banks, the police are going door—to—door, the flood levels are knee high, they are trying to persuade people to go to rest centres that have been set up offering warmth and hot food and a place to spend the night. this evening we are receiving reports that emergency services are responding to reports that a person has been swept into the river in aberdeenshire after trying to rescue their dog. thank you. medical regulators in the us have approved what they are calling a "game—changing" drug for people at high risk of type one diabetes. it's the first licensed medication which can delay the onset of the condition. our medical editor fergus walsh

is here to explain. it developing one the immune system attacks and destroys cells in the pancreas which produce insulin, the hormone which manages blood sugar levels. the new drug teplizumab works by reprogramming the hostile immune cells of to disrupt their tact on pancreas, in trials it delayed the onset of type one by round three years. in the uk, about 400,000 people have type1 round three years. in the uk, about 400,000 people have type 1 diabetes, 29,000 of those are children, and rates are rising sharply. having type 1 diabetes mean ea lifetime of checking blood sugar levels and injecting insulin. it's a 24/7 condition, and unless well managed, can trigger a whole range of health problems. so having a treatment that

delays its onset is a breakthrough, and should lead to even better treatments in years to come. this changes everything, because now if we can find people who are at risk of developing type 1 diabetes, we can treat them, and we can delay the onset of that condition and give them many years before they need intensive insulin therapy. he enjoyed everything about life. beth baldwin's son peter was just 13 when he died from a diabetic emergency. the condition had developed suddenly, and was undiagnosed. she now works to raise awareness of the early signs of type one, like extreme thirst, fatigue, and unexplained weight loss. we were in hospital for six days, and his bodyjust couldn't cope. he was, it was too much for him. the onset of type one can be so quick, if you don't recognise it early enough. what happened to peter can happen to anyone, and we were just really unlucky.

teplizumab is not yet licensed in the uk, but is going through rapid assess by medical regulators. finding those at risk of type one who could benefit will require screening, through blood tests, if this treatment is to be of maximum benefit. ferggus walsh, bbc news. this year's children in need kicks off in just over half an hour here on bbc one. our correspondent steffan powell is on stage in salford. yes and this is where the magic will be happening, sophie, anticipation is building here in salford, this is where children in need 2022 will be showcased. the presenters, this is where they will be taking us through a night of laughter, of surprises of special guests, especially if you are a doctor who fan make sure you

todayit means winter is coming. you know today it has been all about the rainfall in scotland, here is the radar from the last few hour, the amber warning radar from the last few hour, the amberwarning are radar from the last few hour, the amber warning are the met office is still in force for the next three hours, or so, two—and—a—half hours, the most amount of rainfall fell where pretty much where the forecast was around charr, 140mm of where pretty much where the forecast was around charr,140mm of rain, thatis was around charr,140mm of rain, that is a lot of water so there is disruption. but for many the weekend is not so bad. saturday we have sunshine on the way and then on sunday, quite a few showers, we will be in between weather systems tomorrow. this weather system, that is heading our way, and will be sweeping across the country during the course of saturday night. this is what the morning looks like, out to the west, clear skies for many, even a touch of frost, particularly if northern ireland, and some south—west parts of the uk, here is the forecast for tomorrow, so eastern parts of the country pretty

cloudy with this layer of cloud, you can see stretching from the south—east all
