11:01 pm
makes its first orbit of the moon, we'll hear from a former astronaut about why, 50 years after the apollo missions, this really matters. live from our studio in singapore... this is bbc news. it's newsday. it's seven in the morning in singapore and 6am in indonesia, where rescue workers in west java province are working through the night to look for survivors of a devastating earthquake which has already killed 162 people. the 5.6 magnitude quake struck near the town of cianjur in an area which is densely populated and vulnerable to landslides. we are told the hospitals are now overwhelmed as at least 700 people are being treated with injuries, many of them serious.
11:02 pm
our correspondent valdya baraputri reports from chianjur. as the shaking subsided, shocked residents stood out on the streets of cianjur to take in the damage done to their homes. it was extensive. by indonesian standards, this was not an especially powerful earthquake, but it was shallow — close to the earth's surface, enough to cause hundreds of buildings to collapse as it struck in the afternoon. translation: when it happened, i was sleeping. but all of a sudden, my bed shook and i ran outside. houses had collapsed. as officials tried to coordinate rescue efforts for areas which are still cut off, the injured were brought to the area's main hospital by any means possible — some carried, others in the back of trucks and in a constant, chaotic stream of ambulances.
11:03 pm
with aftershocks being felt, they were laid down on tarpaulins outside the hospital, with nurses treating them as best as they could. this hospital is absolutely overflowing with the people injured following the earthquake. hundreds of people are spending the night being treated here in tents outside of the hospital building. there is a fear, too, of dangerous aftershocks. some fear they have lost loved ones. translation: my two children were playing in the house, - and i was upstairs getting laundry. i fell on top of this child, - but the other one is still missing. my house is flattened to the ground. two of my children survived. i dug them out myself. so now, a race to find survivors — in shattered neighbourhoods
11:04 pm
without power, without water. earthquakes are not unusual here, but this one appears to have been more destructive than most, leaving so many villages isolated, so many lives lost, so many homes to rebuild. valdya baraputi, bbc news, cianjur. and there's lots more on the bbc website on this story, including detailed maps of where the epicentre of the earthquake struck and how widely it was felt across the island of java. that's on bbc.com/news, or simply download the bbc news app. that is of course if you haven't done so already. let's turn to the world cup now and a day dominated by politics off the pitch, as well as the action on it. iran's team refused to sing their country's national anthem in support of protestors back home. meanwhile, england — along with six other european teams —
11:05 pm
abandoned plans to wear armbands in support of gay rights. that was after fifa said such a move would breach the rules and warned players they would receive a yellow card. lucy hockings has more from doha. it was an incredibly powerful and symbolic moment when the iranian team stood there in silence as their national anthem wrung out across the stadium. they were under a huge amount of pressure from the protest movement at home and abroad to make a statement, and this is what they chose to do in solidarity with the anti—regime protesters back in iran. i was speaking to the head of amnesty international, and she said it's very important when fans are watching the match, they realise the possible risk that those players took in making such a statement. i want to tell them to take think about—

superstars — lionel messi is playing for argentina. we'll have to wait and see if maybe the world's attention is just drawn to what is happening on the pitch. that was looky hocking �*s —— lucy. let's turn to ukraine now. the world health organization has warned that ukraine's health system is "facing its darkest days in the war so far". the who says that millions of people in ukraine face a life—threatening winter because of russia's destruction of the country's energy grid. its european regional director, hans kluge, who is in kyiv, said that the organisation had verified more than 700 attacks on ukraine's health infrastructure, including hospitals, since the war began — which he said was a clear breach of international law. he called for a "humanitarian health corridor" to be created to all areas of ukraine. this winter will be life—threatening for millions of people in ukraine.
11:10 pm
the devastating energy crisis, the deepening mental health emergency, constrains on humanitarian access and the risk of viral infections will make this winter a formidable test for the ukraine health system and the ukraine people, but also for the world in its commitment to support ukraine. the country is facing a crisis on top of a crisis, brought on by the war. this is already having knock—on effects on the health system and on the people's health. put simply, this winter will be about survival. our correspondent jessica parker is also in kyiv. of course, temperatures here are getting colder, and that is something that the world health organization was pointing to, especially
11:11 pm
because of the damage there has been to energy infrastructure, energy needed, of course, for vital health care services. and as well with plummeting temperatures and people less able, potentially, to heat their homes, there are warnings as well that people could be more vulnerable to certain conditions. but they used some pretty strong language in this world health organization briefing. hans kluge, who is the who's europe regional director, was talking about figures that he said the un agency had verified of 703 attacks on health infrastructure since the war began. now, who's definition and attack is quite broad, now, the who's definition and attack is quite broad — it says it defines it as any attack or any act of verbal or physical violence, threat of violence or other psychological violence, or obstruction that interferes with the availability, access, and delivery of health services. but they said they had verified 703
11:12 pm
incidents of this kind. officials saying, though, in terms of those figures, it's not up to them to define whether those attacks might have been deliberate or not or indeed who may have committed them. but i think a further message, overall, today of the concern about the onset of winter and the impact it could have on people across ukraine, both in the region is occupied by russian forces and those that are not. jessica parker reporting. you're watching newsday. still to come — nasa's artemis has arrived at the moon and begun its first orbit five days after leaving earth. we'll have the latest on what this means. president kennedy was shot down and died almost immediately. the murder ofjohn kennedy is a disaster for the whole free world. he caught the imagination of the world, the first

11:14 pm
our headlines... rescue workers in indonesia's westjava province are working through the night to look for survivors in the rubble of a devastating earthquake, which has already killed more than 160 people. iran's footballers have shown their support for protesters back home by refusing to sing the national anthem before their first match at the world cup. to malaysia now, where the political drama post—the general election continues to play out. political parties have been given until tuesday to submit prime ministerial candidates after the king issued a 24—hour extension. while the king's post is largely ceremonial, he has the power to appoint the next prime minister, based on who he believes can command a majority in parliament. opposition leader anwar ibrahim's alliance won the most seats in the election, but it fell short of the simple majority needed for him to be prime minister. well, for more on this,
11:15 pm
we can cross live to kuala lumpur and speak to james chin, malaysia expert and professor of asian studies at the university of tasmania. great to get you on the programme, james. in the first instance, we are looking at more political instability ahead. explain how this might be different from what we've seen before in malaysia's history. so, this is the first time in malaysia's experience, there was no coalition of single party has met the minimum required of former government. but i have to disagree with you slightly. i think what happened later today was what the government was put together and the government was put together and the government will have... so i don't expect this instability to last any longer after today.— expect this instability to last any longer after today. what are you exectin: longer after today. what are you expecting in _ longer after today. what are you expecting in terms _ longer after today. what are you expecting in terms of _ longer after today. what are you expecting in terms of that - expecting in terms of that government being formed, and terms

anwar ibrahim? i if, indeed, what does that mean for anwar ibrahim?— anwar ibrahim? i think it is understood _ anwar ibrahim? i think it is understood that _ anwar ibrahim? i think it is understood that he - anwar ibrahim? i think it is understood that he would i anwar ibrahim? i think it is - understood that he would have the last time to be the prime minister. the next will probably be held 4—5 years from now, and if he doesn't make it this time, he will probably have to retired and won't be given another chance. i think much more importantly, if muhyiddin yassin becomes the prime minister, second time, there is a lot of worry are among the people of malaysia that the most important party is the islamic party. it was widely understood that this party doesn't play a very important role in malaysian politics at a federal level. they suddenly become the largest block and there are many people in malaysia are that are worried they will pursue a more hard—line islamic policy if they get into power. hard-line islamic policy if they get into power-— into power. james, i find that really interesting. _

11:19 pm
on older children, too. here's our global health correspondent, naomi grimley. at 1a, sirinya relies on his mother to take him to clinic, but she'll do whatever it takes for a son who was born with both feet twisted inwards. he has clubfoot, a congenital condition affecting one in 800. this is how he used to walk. he's always dreamed of being a footballer. translation: some people said he wouldn't walk, - that he was incurable. in school, kids teased him about his feet. one time, he refused to go to class for three days. it caused me real heartache. senegalese medics are among those leading the way in treating older children using this so—called ponseti method. before, a child who'd already learnt to walk on a twisted foot might
11:20 pm
have been told surgery was the only option, whereas this is mostly non—invasive. in another clinic outside the capital, they're identifying cases as early as possible. it was the original idea of this treatment, which helps to manoeuvre the feet to face forwards. the medical team rely on word of mouth to get parents to bring their babies in. translation: so, this child is only 13 days old. - this is her second cast. so, this means she's received treatment from the start of her life. it makes healing easier and the feet are very flexible when they're young. the thing about clubfoot treatment is it's super cheap and actually very easy. it doesn't even need highly trained doctors. physiotherapists can do it, too. a week later, sirinya is back at the clinic to have the 20th pair of casts taken off. a minor operation was also required
11:21 pm
to release the achilles tendon. now, each foot is in position. he'll need physiotherapy to learn to walk again. but look at the progress on his feet. that dream of playing football is coming within reach. naomi grimley, bbc news, dakar. it's quite remarkable. nasa's artemis space capsule, orion, has arrived at the moon and begun its first orbit five days after leaving earth. the unmanned vehicle orbited around the far side of the moon, flying within 130 kilometres of the lunar surface and has now entered a wide orbit. nasa hopes to send humans to the moon again in three years' time. for more on this, i am joined now by former nasa astrobiologist keith cowing, who also edits nasa watch, a website devoted to the scrutiny of nasa and space policy. it's great to get you back on the

11:23 pm
it's got manikins and research from dozens of countries on board. so, when this... it's part of a larger thing. there's something called the artemis accords, which has a star trek ring to it on purpose. 21 countries have all come together to work on this. the idea is we've done this before, but for about two thirds of humanity, who weren't even alive, they haven't seen anyone work on another world. for them, this will be the first moon programme. i don't want to be a damper, but i have to ask and i'm sure many might be wondering as well — there are so many problems on earth. is this really where humanity's efforts are best place? really where humanity's efforts are best lace? ., really where humanity's efforts are best place?— really where humanity's efforts are best lace? ., ., ., ., best place? you can ask that, and it has been put to space people for half a century or longer. but india, a country that has a lot of economic issues, is racing to send probes to
11:24 pm
its moon and mars. —— the moon. what you see now is something that may be here, you and i get a little blase. why is it that these other countries have never done it so much want to do it? it's a matter of prestige, technology and it really does have an inspirational and motivational factor, but as part of a broader issue of space technology. you have to bring it all together. there's a bigger picture to this. going to the moon is also part of what humans do. we want to explore. it's notjust americans or russians, europeans. it's people in ghana and malaysia and wherever else. that's, to me, what's important.— what's important. very briefly, keith, would _ what's important. very briefly, keith, would you _ what's important. very briefly, keith, would you be _ what's important. very briefly, keith, would you be somebody what's important. very briefly, - keith, would you be somebody would consider getting on that spacecraft? tomorrow morning!—

11:26 pm
thanksgiving. that's the end of newsday this hour. do stay with bbc news. hello again. yesterday wasn't the most inspiring of autumn days. for many, it was cloudy and wet. we had some strong and gusty winds, and it felt quite cold as well. this is how the skies looked in staffordshire as the rain came down, the rain even brought a bit of localised flooding to some of the a roads in cornwall and kent. now, so far this month, the wettest weather has been across the eastern side of the uk. aboyne has seen more than double the amount of rainfall this november, and we have seen nearly twice as much rain in shoreham in sussex. the tables were turned, though, on monday, with the wettest weather affecting western areas — lough fea 31mm in northern ireland. now, over recent times, we have seen areas of low pressure move in to the uk and kind of stall as they have run up against this
11:27 pm
area of high pressure that's stayed to the north and east of the uk. that's kind of what's happening at the moment, really. yesterday's area of low pressure still with us at the moment, although it is weakening in situ. we're seeing outbreaks of rain generally turning a little bit lighter and patchy, maybe a little bit of mist and fog over the pennines, cold enough for a nip of frost into rural sheltered parts of scotland, but most starting the day on a frost—free note. through tuesday, across central and eastern england, where we start off on a damp note, it should turn a bit brighter. still showers across northern and eastern areas of scotland, one or two showers running down the irish sea, just clipping pembrokeshire and also devon and cornwall, where it will be quite a windy day. temperatures seven to 11 celsius but not feeling quite as chilly. for most of us, the winds won't be as strong as they were yesterday. now, for wednesday, the wind starts to pick up once again, another band of rain coming up
11:28 pm
the atlantic, this one moving its way northwards and eastwards. it will be followed by a mixture of sunshine and showers, but there'll be quite a lot of showers across western areas as we head into the afternoon. temperatures not really changing too much, about seven again in the north to about 11 or 12 across southern parts of england and wales. we've got more rain in the forecast for thursday. this area of rain looks to be quite a slow—moving band as it extends its way gradually eastwards. could see some localised flooding impacting from that, just one or two areas, and we'll start to see those temperatures just picking up across parts of england and wales, 12—13 celsius the high. into the weekend and next week, it does stay on the unsettled side, the winds turn more to the south—westerly direction, so temperaturesjust coming up, perhaps 1a over the weekend in cardiff.
11:29 pm
11:30 pm
hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are alfie stirling, director of research for the new economics foundation which is a social—economic left of centre think tank, and david bond, deputy political editor of the evening standard. we will say hello to both in just a moment but let's look at what the front pages have.
