we begin in south east asia, where officials in indonesia say the number of people killed in an earthquake is now 62. it had previously been reported that 162 people had been killed but authorities say that number is uncomfirmed. there are fears the death toll could continue to rise, however. many hundreds have been injured. the epicentre of the earthquake, which had a magnitude of 5.6, was on the island ofjava — not far from the capital, jakarta. one of the worst affected areas is cianjur, a densely populated part of the island. from there, our correspondent valdya baraputri reports. 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. with aftershocks still being felt, they were laid down on tarpaulins outside the hospital, with nurses treating them as best as they could. on days off and not on shift, have come on duty. 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 thisl 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 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. let's take a look at the latest pictures coming out of the affected area.

it has just it hasjust gone it has just gone iiam it has just gone 11am on tuesday in indonesia. the aid agency world vision provided these images, showing damage to homes and schools. the agency says many buildings were not well constructed and were ill prepared to deal with a disaster of this magnitude. a little earlier i spoke tojuventa from the aid agency world vision in indonesia. she told me what kind of aid people needed. so the primary needs are the medical aid because many people are injured. world vision indonesia also sends tarpaulin because it's also needed right now. bsed on our information food, water and also sanitation facilities are really needed because they still cannot back to their home right now. we've seen these images that your organisation sent to us of buildings which have been devastated. now, java is one of the biggest islands in indonesia. it does have a number of hospitals. what kind of condition are they in? what's the infrastructure like?

so basically in cianjur, i think now because so many people are injured, the hospitals are really full. so they are also getting medical aid in the centre from the government. i think the infrastructure also really, many roads are actually closed, so the access is really hard. it's very difficult to go there because of the landslide. it's also very difficult to give distributions to the affected area in cianjur. because of these conditions. and tell us just briefly, what are your teams prioritising on the ground at the moment? so in indonesia, our staff are already going there, start from last night and also today. so we are bringing some medical aid and also tarpaulins to go there.

we also are doing our assessments also together with the government to know what kind of aid will be primarily needed as soon as possible. and we will send our distribution, our medical aid and also other aid needed to the affected area as soon as possible. asi as i mentioned, it hasjust gone mid—morning on tuesday in indonesia. our colleagues from bbc indonesia have sent us this update — they say that more than three thousand houses have been damaged and along with those who were killed, 92 people were wounded, and more than five thousand people have had to take shelter. and at least 25 people are thought to have been buried in a village near the epicentre which has been effectively cut off. we'll have more details on this in the coming hours here on bbc world news. let's turn to the world cup now, and monday was a day dominated by politics off the pitch — as well as the action on it.

starting with the results — there were three games. the netherlands scored two late goals to beat senegal, putting them alongside ecuador at the top of group a. england scored six, beating iran, leaving them top in group b after the first round of matches, because a late equaliser for wales gave them a draw with the us. but there were some issues with ticketing. these fans said the official app, which should've helped them get into the match between iran and england, wasn't working properly — and many were not inside the ground when it kicked off. in a statement, fifa called on ticket holders to check the email accounts they used to register with the ticketing app for instructions and to visit the stadiums ticket resolution point if they needed more help. but perhaps the biggest talking points came with the players — and what they didn't do. england's captain harry kane, and his welsh counterpart gareth bale, both reversed their decision to wear this — the one love armband — after fifa said they would be

booked if they did. homosexuality is illegal in the host nation qatar. fifa said it would allow captains to wear a "no discrimination" armband instead, if they chose to. and then more politics as iran came on to the pitch, and lined up for their national anthem before their game with england. but instead of singing, the players stayed silent, in what's being seen as a gesture of solidarity for anti—government protesters in their home country. none of the players have commented formally. iranian state tv cut its coverage of the anthem and switched to a previously shown wide shot of the stadium. with the latest from doha, here's shaimaa khalil. it was impossible to escape the politics of this game. and the most extraordinary moment came from iran's players, refusing to sing the national anthem, a move that could have serious consequences from them because it appears to side with

the anti—government protesters. the players have come under a great deal of pressure and criticism lately for not showing enough support. even before the kick—off, emotions were high — many with a clear message about why they were here. i'm not cheering for the islamic republic, them because they're representing islamic republic. i'm here to support my country, my homeland, iran. at the moment, the regime, they are killing kids, they are killing children. i'm not coming here to support them. i we are just coming here to be the voice of people in iran. . since the protests started, more than 400 people - have been killed. the match itself was disappointing for iran, but the country's political turmoil could also be felt throughout. there were gestures of defiance, with the slogan of the protests, "woman, life, freedom" written on this iranian flag. while most iranian fans cheered relentlessly for their team, some others could be heard chanting "bisharaf", which means "dishonourable" —

a word used to criticise the security forces. a woman was in the stands with a small poster saying "woman, life, freedom," in solidarity with protesters back in her home country. for many here, this was more than just a football game. today anti—government protests continued, as did the violent crackdown against those taking to the streets. human rights activists say 400 people were killed and thousands arrested since the protests started in september, triggered by the death of 22—year—old mahsa amini. she had been detained for allegedly not wearing her headscarf properly. her death became a crying call against the oppression of women. the reverberations of this movement have been felt across the globe, and now they've echoed here, on one of the world's biggest stages. shaimaa khalil, bbc news, doha. much more on the world cup from our teams there

majority she needed. attempts to fly a hot—air balloon had to be abandoned after a few minutes, but nobody seemed to mind very much. as one local comic put it, "it's not hot air we need, it's hard cash." cuba has declared nine days of mourning following the death of fidel castro at the age of 90. castro developed close ties with the soviet union in the 1960s. it was an alliance that brought the world to the brink of nuclear war with the cuban missile crisis. this is bbc world news. the latest headlines: rescue efforts in indonesia as a powerful earthquake kills dozens of people and injures hundreds more, overwhelming local hospitals. iran's footballers appear to have shown support for anti—government protestors at home, by staying silent when their national anthem was played before theirfirst match at the world cup.

ukraine's president volodymyr zelensky has called on his country to try to limit its use of energy — after what he says has been systematic damage to ukraine's energy grid by russian attacks. there have been what he described as unscheduled power cuts due to what he says is a higher level of consumption than can be provided for. translation: of course, energy workers, utility workers, - rescuers and everyone involved are working at their maximum. but the systematic damage to our energy network by the attacks of russian terrorists is so significant that all of our people and businesses should be very frugal and try to spread consumption across the day. mr zelensky�*s appeal comes as the world health organization warned that millions of ukrainians face a life—threatening winter because of those power shortages. the who says it's also verified more than 700 attacks on ukraine's health infrastructure, including hospitals, since the war began.

half of ukraine's energy infrastructure is either damaged or destroyed. 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. let's put that into context now — here's our correspondent in kyiv, jessica parker. so the world health organization today said that they had verified 703 attacks on health infrastructure in ukraine since the war began. worth noting, though, that their definition of attack is quite broad. so according to the world health organization, they define it as 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 care. now, what officials are saying is that these attacks, as they put them, include to health services, medical supplies as well,

but that it's not up to them to define whether that damage might have been deliberate or not or indeed which side may have committed it. but more broadly as well, something the who was speaking about is how the cold temperatures are setting in as we get into winter. we've seen the first snow here in kyiv as well. and the damage to the energy infrastructure is, of course, also of concern given how vital it is to provide energy to health services. and dr hans kluge, the who's regional director for europe, was also speaking about how these colder temperatures can, of course, lead to more respiratory infections, for people across the country as well, as well as a number of other conditions. so i think the who really trying to flag, as others have, those concerns about what winter could mean not just for the conflict, but actually the health of people in everyday ukraine as well. let's get some of

the day's other news. a fire at a factory in china's henan province has killed at least 36 people. two other people are missing. state media says criminal suspects have been taken into custody, but gave no other details. authorities in colorado springs have identified the five victims who were fatally wounded at a lgbtq nightclub over the weekend. announcing their names, colorado's police chief said he hoped to take attention away from the suspect and refocus it on the victims. the suspect is being held on murder and hate crimes charges. peace talks between the colombian government and the eln rebel group have resumed, after being suspended for more than three years. the discussions, which took place in neighbouring venezuela, follow the election of colombia's first ever leftist president, gustavo petro, earlier this year — he'd promised to end nearly six decades of civil conflict. every year 200,000 babies are born with club foot — a condition which leaves them with twisted feet. early diagnosis and treatment

yields the best results, but in developing countries lack of access to treatment leaves many unable to walk without pain. in senegal, in west africa, where only 20% of cases are treated, experts have been perfecting a non—invasive technique that works on older children too. here's our global health correspondent, naomi grimley. at 14, 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 club foot, 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 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 club foot 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 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. nasa's artemis spacecraft has arrived at the moon and begun its first orbit. these are pictures from space. the capsule is flying above 130 kilometres above the lunar surface and was out of contact for 3h minutes as it passed the far side of the moon. former astronaut chris hadfield — whose 20—year career in space saw him command the international space station — gave us his thoughts about what the artemis mission means for future space exploration.

it's been a long time since a vehicle that could carry people was that close to the surface of the moon. to me, that's hugely exciting. when i was a boy, that's when the people first went to the moon and so, you know, exploration and settlement, it always takes time. to me, it's wonderful that we have the technology now to be able to get that close, and the doors that it's opening. in some of those images, not only can you see the surface of the earth, but you can look back and see the surface of the moon, but you can look back and see the entire earth as one place. just an amazing perspective. dr ken kremer is a research scientist and founder of the space up close website, he was at the launch, and i asked him what that was like. it was absolutely spectacular. we've waited for this moment for 50 years since the end of the apollo programme with apollo 17 astronauts. so, you know, it was wonderful to be there. electric in the air. this sls rocket is more powerful than apollo by about 20%. so it was extremely loud and it turned night

into day, literally. it was so bright, it overwhelmed all our cameras. but it's got our dreams going back to the moon and that is really important for the future. well, you mentioned the future. tell us more about what this means for future space travel, why this is so important. well, this mission has to succeed. the rocket has to succeed, and orion has to succeed because there's no people on board. there's only three manikins on board. the next mission, artemis 2, will have four people, three nasa astronauts and one canadian. but that can only happen if this mission goes perfectly. so the primary objective, beyond launching the rocket, is to orbit around the moon, but bring the orion capsule back to earth. it's going to hit the earth at 25,000 miles an hour, and then it'll descend through the atmosphere, slow down on three parachutes and land safely in the pacific ocean off the coast of california. and they want to recover that capsule and see how it did. and that is the primary

objective, recover this capsule so we can send astronauts next time in about two years so 202a. well, you mentioned two years. you also mentioned 25,000 miles an hour. that's going to be a bit ofa bumpy landing. what is it we hope to get out of the artemis 2 mission? well, it's going to hit the atmosphere at 25,000 miles. but when it actually splashes down in the ocean, it's just a few miles an hour. the parachutes and the atmosphere actually slow it, but it's coming in faster than the space shuttles, which are about 17,000 miles. so what this will do is it will prove that the orion capsule is safe to send humans on. so that'll set up artemis 2, which will circle around the moon orbit, around the moon flyby, and if that is successful, then we will land people on the moon, the first woman and the first person of colour, a few years after that, maybe as soon as 2025, maybe a little bit later. so we want to put our

astronauts back on the moon. but that can only happen if this mission goes successfully and then sets up the next mission, artemis 2 looping around the moon. so eventually we want to have a base on the moon. so it's a progression of ever more ambitious missions. and then this eventually will lead to mars, sending humans to mars in the 2030s. and just very briefly, what's the point in this? we have bigger problems closer to home that we should be focusing on, no? we have a lot of problems on earth and we should be solving them. but we have to advance our technology. and if we don't do that... i'm a medical researcher, you just had a story on about medical research. so we need to push the bounds of technology everywhere. we can'tjust sit here on earth and not advance. otherwise we will cease as a species. so we must move forward both at home and in space. and we must maintain our leadership in space so we maintain our leadership over our adversaries like china, because they're definitely going.

our friends watching in the us celebrate thanksgiving this thursday — and president biden has been marking the holiday week with the traditional pardoning of turkeys at the white house. the pardoning of a bird is thought to date back to abraham lincoln in 1863. some a0 million turkeys will be consumed across the us this year — but these two, chocolate and chip, will not be among them. president biden issued the pardonjust a day after he celebrated a landmark of his own, turning 80 — he's the first us president to reach that age while still in office. firstly, the votes are in. they've been counted, verified. there's no ballot stuffing. there's no foul play. the only red wave this season is going to be if german shepherd commander knocks over the cranberry sauce on our table. in case you're wondering, the pardoned turkeys tend to be sent to farms, to live out the rest of their days. we wish chocolate and chip a happy retirement.

that's it from us for now. you can reach me on twitter — i'm @richpreston from all of us here in london, thanks for your company. we will see you next time. 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. that was 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 so far this november, and we've 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've run up against this 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 patchier, 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 7—ii 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 the atlantic, another band of rain coming in off 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 impacts from that, in 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 to more of a south—westerly direction, so temperaturesjust coming up, perhaps 14 over the weekend in cardiff.

this is bbc news. the headlines... rescue efforts are under way in indonesia after a powerful earthquake struck the island ofjava, killing at least 62 people. it had previously been reported that 162 people had been killed but authorities say that number is uncomfirmed. hundreds of people are injured, overwhelming local hospitals. iran's footballers appear to have shown support for protesters back home by refusing to sing the national anthem before their first match at the world cup. none of the players have commented formally. iranian state tv cut its coverage of the anthem and switched to a wide shot of the stadium. ukrainians are facing the "darkest days of the war so far" according to
