in greenhouse gas emissions. our environment editor justin rowlatt reports from sharm el sheikh. these talks were supposed to end on friday. they went through friday night and then through saturday night. it was 4:15 on sunday morning when the gavel finally came down on the loss and damage deal. i hear no objections, it's so decided. applause. the exhausted delegates only managed a ripple of applause. but this is a landmark deal on an issue that has dogged these talks for decades. clearly, this will not be enough, but it is a much—needed political signal to rebuild broken trust. the voices of those on the front lines of the climate crisis must be heard. hurricane ian tears through cuba earlier this year. today's deal creates a fund to help vulnerable nations cope with the loss and damage

climate—related storms, droughts and floods are already wreaking in their communities. the deal on loss and damage is undoubtedly a breakthrough, but there is huge disappointment in this room — disappointment that the rest of the text is not more ambitious. leaders of delegations met to discuss how they could change the wording to increase the effort to cut emissions. the aim of these summits is to raise ambition every year, but today's deal dials back on what was agreed last year in glasgow. we need to switch to renewable power, it says, but also low emission energy. what is low emission energy? it is understood the phrase was included after pressure from the saudi delegation and other fossil fuel rich countries, and it is feared it could allow natural gas to be

classified as green. there was a very strong move by some of the petro states to try and unwind some of those decisions and, in fact, go back to pre—paris kind of arrangements. and so, i mean, as you can tell, because how late we are, it was sort of trench warfare on that. many nations wanted the targets for emission reductions to be much stronger. emissions peaking before 2025, as the science tells us is necessary. not in this text! clear follow—through on the phase—down of coal. not in this text! a clear commitment to phase out all fossil fuels. not in this text! and the energy text weakened in the final minutes. but the deal on loss and damage is genuinely a breakthrough, says the woman who led negotiations for developing countries. it's given me hope.

it's restored faith. in multilateralism. |it's given us all hope in the cop| system and literally in the power of working together. the problem is, for many here, the rest of the deal is so disappointing. it means what could have been a triumph for egypt is likely to end up being judged a failure. justin rowlatt, bbc news, sharm el—sheikh, egypt. i'm joined now by dr christina voigt. she is the first co—chair of the paris agreement�*s compliance and implementation committee and a professor of law at the university of oslo, norway. thank you forjoining us. some people are saying this is an historic axxxx agreement but as our climate editor pointed out there, many think this is dialling back on what was agreed if glasgow. . goad what was agreed if glasgow. . good evenina. what was agreed if glasgow. . good evening- well. _ what was agreed if glasgow. . good evening. well, the _ what was agreed if glasgow. .

(7!g course it is disappointing and it was already last year disappointing, because it was already last year in glasgow discussed it should notjust

present in the negotiations otherwise it would be a failure. but, the talking about the peaking, or even the net zero target, that was not repeated from last year's text, but there is a general recalling of the glasgow climate pact, right at the beginning of the cover decision which means everything we agreed to last year applies this year and what is really missing which is an important element, a follow up process, how these pledges are being implemented, that was in text last year and didn't make it this year but that is something we need to keep in mind next year. something we need to keep in mind next ear. . ., something we need to keep in mind next ear. ., ~ , ., ., ., , next year. thank you for “oining us. you're welcome. h #3 after months of criticisms and controversies surrounding the tournament, the 2022 men's football world cup in qatar has finally kicked—off. fans were treated to a visually striking opening ceremony at the al bayt stadium, with hollywood actor morgan freeman appearing before the crowds to say football could unite communities and countries. in the first match, qatar became the first host nation ever to lose its opening game

limited for a period of time after his anti—semitic tweet earlier this month and hasn't posted on the social media platform since that post was removed. it appears now that he's back on the site. jim anderson is an expert in social media related software and is a social media expert and joins us now. it is all cop fusing about the structure of twitter and who is allowed back on and whether they are. it allowed back on and whether they are. , .., , allowed back on and whether they are, , , ., allowed back on and whether they are. , .., , ., , are. it is confusing and it is funn , are. it is confusing and it is funny. elon _ are. it is confusing and it is funny, elon musk- are. it is confusing and it is funny, elon musk he - are. it is confusing and it is funny, elon musk he has i are. it is confusing and it is funny, elon musk he has a| are. it is confusing and it is - funny, elon musk he has a show are. it is confusing and it is _ funny, elon musk he has a show man's instinct but the challenge is to not be a carnival barker, he is sort of tweeting and teasing these ideas we will change the moderation rules, he is a free speech absolutist to use his phrase but he says we won't allow twitter to turn into a hell scape, his words, he is playing up, he is we felting it half right. there are lots of hard questions that probably do need to be revisits, specially now that donald trump is running for president again, but he is doing it with an air, ora again, but he is doing it with an air, or a lack of seriousness, he is

putting up a twitter poll and one day later he is saying i have decided. it is really quite fascinating to see this unfold. very concerning to advertisers.- fascinating to see this unfold. very concerning to advertisers. never say never for mucks. — concerning to advertisers. never say never for mucks, never _ concerning to advertisers. never say never for mucks, never say - concerning to advertisers. never say never for mucks, never say never i never for mucks, never say never presumably for donald trump, who seems to be suggesting he is happy with truth social.— with truth social. yes, he is suggesting _ with truth social. yes, he is suggesting that, _ with truth social. yes, he is suggesting that, he - with truth social. yes, he is suggesting that, he is - with truth social. yes, he is - suggesting that, he is contractually on gated to put his content on truth social but the poll of 80 million followers on twitter, his ability to dictate the day's news and conversation was unprecedented. it is unknown whether when he comes back to twitter, and i believe he will, he will be back, because the reach is too obvious there. whether the news will cover him the same way, whether he is able to garner the attention he was able to before, thatis the attention he was able to before, that is an unknown, but i can almost count on the fact he will be back and probably sooner rather than later. ~ . and probably sooner rather than later. . ., ., ., and probably sooner rather than later. ~ . . ., ., , and probably sooner rather than later. . . . ., , and probably sooner rather than later. . . . . , , later. what damage has been caused so far, in terms _

this, and he has to recoup that, how far forward are we with all those initial plans, that he said he had for twitter, face to face dealing, banking and the other stuff? hat banking and the other stuff? not far, not close _ banking and the other stuff? ilfrt far, not close at all, you saw, you asked about his employees for he cut them by half, ok, you know, new owner, new regime you needed to change some the structure, he has about a quarter of the employees to do these thing, there is a disconnect between what he wants to do and is able to do. the advertising revenue is declining, he still has the debt to service, he has levered up the new owner, new regime you needed to change some the structure, he has about a quarter of the employees to do these thing, there is a disconnect between what he wants to do and is able to do. the advertising revenue is declining, he still has the debt to service, he has levered up the company with about a billion sin debt. he could personally service it but it is very much an open question, he has teased the idea that twitter could go for bankruptcy because he doesn't want to service that debt. again, a very unusual move for somebody who puts 41!

billion into a company to be so cav leer about its future.— leer about its future. briefly he has spacex _ leer about its future. briefly he has spacex and _ leer about its future. briefly he has spacex and tesla - leer about its future. briefly he | has spacex and tesla structural engineers getting involved in this now, as well. so he says,s and what are we hearing about that, terms of the algorithms to change things? it is an interesting question, he is a hard driving boss, he has been and thatis hard driving boss, he has been and that is his prerogative, bringing tesla and spacex to run a distributed social network, they are apples and grapefruit. they are not close to each other, that is highly dubious, there are people he trusts so that is one thing, their expertise is lacking and it leads to interesting questions about engineering culture and what environment do talented tech people want to work in, and for the most part i am not sure it's the environment elon musk is creating at twitter. thank you. the 2022 football world cup

is under way in qatar, where the host nation have been beaten by equador in the opening match of the tournament. the south american side looked to have scored the opening goal a few minutes in but enner valencia's header from close range was ruled out for offside by the video assistant referee. they made the breakthrough shortly afterwards, though, when valencia was brought down in the box by the goalkeeper, and the ex—west ham forward stepped up to convert the penalty. and things got worse for the hosts, as valencia powered in another header before half—time to leave the home fans silenced at the break. it finished 2—0. so disappointment for the hosts, and questions too about empty seats at the stadium in al khor. nesta mcgregor was at the game — and spoke to us a short while ago. think disappointing is perhaps the correct way to put it, but it wasn't embarrassing, fans, that was their biggest fear, possibly losing 5 or 6-0 biggest fear, possibly losing 5 or

6—0 and with the netherlands and senegal to come that would have been the worst possible start because it won't get easier, it is worth saying all of their starting 11, played domestically in the country, so the big fear is that have they had enough international competition, at the highest level? and will they be found out as the tournament goes on? what was disappointing was i guess from the organisers point of view is the amount of empty seat, especially after half—time it seemed many people had given up and by the end the ecuadorfans were people had given up and by the end the ecuador fans were the ones making the most noise. well, nesta mentioned it there, senegal and netherlands are also in qatar's group, they play each other on monday. but it's england that play before that, 1pm british time, play the united states. next to tennis in turin — where novak djokovic has won a record equalling sixth atp finals, bringing him level with roger federer. the former world number one beat casper ruud, who reached this year's french and us opens, in straight sets 7—5, 6—3. victory for djokovic in the season—ending event caps a year in which he was forced

to miss two majors because of his covid vaccine status. he will be able to play at next year's australian open though, which starts in the middle ofjanuary. max verstappen has claimed another victory in the final grand prix of the season in abu dhabi. the world champion started from pole and won comfortably to claim a record extending fifteenth win of the season. charles leclerc finished ahead of sergio perez to beat the mexican to second in the drivers�* championship and secure runners up spot in the constructors championship for ferrari. lewis hamilton failed to finish, ending the year without a win for the first time in his formula one career. in snooker, the uk championship final is under way in york. china's ding junhui is hoping to win the title for a fourth time and took a commanding 6—2 lead against northern ireland's mark allen in the first session of the final. but allen, a beaten uk finalist

in both 2011 and 2018, has been fighting back and it's currently level, six all. the first to ten frames wins. you can follow it all on the bbc sport website. rory mcilroy ended the year as european number one despite spain'sjon rahm claiming a third dp world tour championship title in dubai. rahm hit a five—under 67 on the final day to finish on 20 under, two ahead of england's tyrrell hatton and alex noren of sweden. world number one mcilroy was a shot back in fourth after a four—under 68. it's the fourth time he's won this trophy forfinishing the year as european number one. the last time was back in 2015. and suryakumar yadav hit seven sixes and 11 fours, with his second half—century coming from just 17 balls as india beat new zealand by 65 runs in their second t20 international. india posted 191 for six in mount maunganui. new zealand lost finn allen to the second ball of their reply and were bowled out for 126. deepak hooda claiming four for ten in under three overs.

india are 1—0 up with one match to go. that's all the sport for now. there's been renewed shelling at the site of europe's largest nuclear power plant in ukraine. experts from the international atomic energy agency stationed at the zaporizhzhia plant reported that more than a dozen blasts were heard within a short period of time on sunday morning, and last night. russia and ukraine have blamed each other for the shelling. the iaea is based in vienna, our correspondent bethany bell is there. the head said whoever was doing it, needed to stop it immediately, because they were playing with fire, he said there appeared to have been

renewed shelling in and round zaporizhzhia and he said that the iaea team which is based there said that there had been some damage to buildings systems and equipment at the site, but not to anything that was crucial to nuclear safety or security, and the statement said there had been no reports of casualties, but the ahead of the iaea, the head said it was extremely disturbing news a ukrainian female soldier who was fighting in the azovstal steel plant in mariupol before the city was taken by russian forces, has told the bbc she saw people being electrocuted while she was a prisoner of war in russia. the bbc�*s olga malchevska has this report. this is alina before this year's russian invasion. the 24—year—old sergeant and her military dog, sonya, were new recruits in the bodyguard.

were new recruits in the border gaurd. after russia attacked mariupol in february, alina joined other ukrainian military personnel in the azovstal steelworks. all singing. in this video taken in april, alina and her colleagues are sheltering in a bunker at the steelworks. there was huge russian bombardment for over a month. three weeks later, russia captured mariupol and ukrainian soldiers were forced to surrender. they boarded russian buses and lost connection with the world. alina disappeared forfive months, but she managed to survive. translation: the buses drove us i towards donetsk in occupied ukraine. we were taken to olenivka prison. we spent four and a half months there. then we were taken to russia. she was in olenivka prison during a deadly explosion, which took the lives of dozens of ukrainians.

weapons and forensic experts the bbc investigations team spoke to are convinced that russia killed the prisoners deliberately. russia denies that. translation: people - were screaming, dogs barking. the explosion was in the premises where the men were held around 500 metres from us. they were brought to our premises. around 64 guys, they had various injuries. our girls, prisoners of war, were treating them. alina says russian special forces were the most brutal. translation: there were 28 women in a cell which was - designed for six people. they would not give us food. they gave us just ten litres of water for up to three days for all of us. we had our eyes blindfolded and our hands tied and they could hit us. they were cruel with us. i don't want to tell you in detail whether everyone was tortured. i'm sorry, but i can tell you that they did everything.

other people were saying about electric shock torture. did it happen? it did. alina was one of over 100 ukrainian women exchanged in a prisoner swap in october. she calls this day the happiest in her life. translation: those emotions, i cannot even describe. - girls were crying and laughing. the most precious moment was when we heard the ukrainian language and saw our people, ourflag. the girls were falling on their knees and crying. despite everything alina went through, she does not want to leave the army. translation: i will stay in ukraine. i will continue serving. more prisoners were swapped in november, but ukrainian officials estimate there are still hundreds in russian captivity and there is no way to know how they're being treated. olga malchevska, bbc news.

more on that story and the others on the website. see over the next few hours we will see some frost and fog forming, it is going to be a chilly start to our monday morning, some of that will be slow to lift away and then as we go through the day some wet and windy weather will start to dominate from the south—west. but temperatures could be as low as minus four or five degrees in a few spots, first thing this morning, the wet weather though, starting to show its hand and that will gradually drift north and that will gradually drift north and east as we go through the day. not getting into northern england and scotland however. gusts of wind in excess of 70—80mph first thing, so a very stormy start to the day in the south—west, some of that rain really torrential as it pushes its

way steadily north east, moving into northern ireland, across parts of wales, the midland, eventual lynn to south—east england and east anglia as we go through the afternoon, northern england and the bulk of scotland after that cold and foggy start will see some sunshine coming through, few isolated showers and where it is cool to higher ground some could be wintry in flavour, six orseven some could be wintry in flavour, six or seven the high here, top temperatures of 11 celsius perhaps. but, it looks likely that we see the cooler air clipping on to the far north, further south, we will see a few weak weather fronts in producing milder showery weather first thing on tuesday morning, the showers in the north of scotland still from the the north of scotland still from the the tendency perhaps to be of rain, sleet and snow, elsewhere on tuesday, not a bad day, dry with some sunshine coming through, a few scattered showers, temperatures round six to 11 celsius. so on the cool side really. as we move out of the tuesday, into wednesday, the next batch of wet and windy weather starts to push in from the atlantic,

the isobars once again squeezing together, and the rain could be heavy at time, this time it is going to push into the north of england and scotland so more rain for the north east of scotland, maybe some snow to hiring ground here, behind it, we will see sunny spells and a few scattered showers being driven on along the west coast. the temperatures nine to 12 celsius it looks likely we will see slightly drier weather thursday into friday before more wet and windy weather returns into the weekend.
