missiles on ukraine. the uk labour party put its pitch forward for sweeping constitutional change including a proposition to abolish the house of commons. heartbreakforjapan, that heartbreak for japan, that tournament heartbreakforjapan, that tournament is over after a penalty shoot—out with croatia. we start in haiti — the united nations says the country is on the verge of the abyss, as heavily armed gangs expand their control of the country. the un has documented 931i killings in the capital, and 680 kidnappings in the first six months of this year. most of the victims were not directly involved in gangs but were targeted by armed groups. violence has escalated since the assassination of the country's presidentjovenel moise injuly of 2021 — a crime for which no one has been put on trial in haiti. our senior international

correspondent orla guerin sent this special report from the haitian capital. and, a warning, her report contains distressing material. this is gang territory in port—au—prince, almost as far as the eye can see. but it seems the world isn't looking. and the haitian capital has become a gangster�*s paradise. it's morning in a middle—class suburb. minutes after a shoot—out, a show of force by the police. but usually it's the gangs who call the shots. there are over 100 armed groups in the city instilling fear and silence. police are still searching the scene here. there's an ak—li7 on the ground and some ammunition. there are also drops of blood.

now, this is an armoured car. police say they were tracking it for about two weeks. they say it was being used by a kidnap gang. it's about eight in the morning here, and morning and evening rush hours are peak time for the kidnappers. there was a battle with the police officers and the bad guys. one of them died. and we got the vehicle and this is one of the weapons the bad guys had in their hands. do they have many armoured vehicles, the kidnappers? i don't know, there are plenty. i'm sure there are plenty. nearby, the body of an alleged gang member. the police told us, "we stopped them today." across town, francois sinclaire has just been patched up at a trauma hospital run by doctors without borders. he saw gunmen holding up two

cars in front of his. when he tried to get away, he got a bullet in the arm. have you ever thought that the violence is so bad here that you would like to leave haiti? 10,000 times, he tells me. "i can't even call my mum to tell her what happened to me because she's getting older. "in the end, the way things are, it's better to leave if you can." claudette is another recent victim of the gangs. she was hit by a stray bullet and lost her leg. "i don't know how i'll manage," she says. "i can't run and walk the way i used to." she worries she will never marry now. rapid gunfire

gang warfare often erupts here in broad daylight. why not? gunshots gunmen are in league with corrupt politicians and have some police on the payroll. that's according to human rights campaigners who say the gangs of port—au—prince have no limits. there are many here with stories that are harrowing to tell and to hear. like this man. his neighbourhood is controlled by a gang whose rivals came on a killing spree. for his safety, we are not naming the area or the armed group involved. translation: i was in the house | and i was so scared, i was shaking. i didn't know what to do.

they mostly kill young men. my wife took me and hid me under the bed and covered me with piles of clothes. and my nephew was hiding in the wardrobe. soon, the gunmen were in his house. when his nephew ran from his hiding place, they chased him and killed him. what hurts me the most is that when i was under the bed i couldn't see, but i could hear the men raping my wife. they were raping her and i was under the bed and i could say nothing. he sobs there are things you would never wish on anyone, he says. his wife is now pregnant and they don't know if he is the father.

he tells us haiti has been erased from their hearts. some police here are risking their lives trying to make the streets safe. but others have actually formed their own gang. and haiti's weak and tainted government is accused of looking the other way as the crisis deepens. orla guerin, bbc news, port—au—prince. some of those harrowing stories from the people she interviewed there. orla joins me now from the haitian capital, port—au—prince. we had those harrowing reports from the people that you interviewed, it is a really difficult situation in

this country but this hasn't happened overnight, these gangs haven't become so powerful overnight. explain how this country has got to the stage.— has got to the stage. well, haiti has got to the stage. well, haiti has then plagued _ has got to the stage. well, haiti has then plagued by _ has got to the stage. well, haiti has then plagued by political - has then plagued by political instability for decades. the gangs go back to the time when the president in the 1990s. but what has really changed things, what is really changed things, what is really turbo—charge the gang activity is the assassination of the sitting president here injuly of 2021. that is a crime for which nobody has yet been put on trial here. that created a huge power vacuum, gangs here have been competing to fill it and they operate with protection from political friends, operate with protection from politicalfriends, there operate with protection from political friends, there are operate with protection from politicalfriends, there are people, powerful people in politics her both in government and in the opposition who human rights groups they use the gangs to serve their purpose is to

either create electoral support, get control of an area or generate discontent in opposition to one of their rivals. powerful people in business are also accused of using the gangs of a tool —— make as a tool from time to time. they say what has changed in the last ten years or so is that these links are of criminal organisations and corrupt politicians have become institutionalised and that the gangs, and a sense, used to subcontract people subcontract the gangs to provide political violence as and when they needed. just to give you a sense of how powerful these gangs are, we have been told by human rights campaigners said that in the event that a gang member is arrested, a single phone call from one of their political backers can get them released within an hours and with their weapons. an hours and with their weapons. an extraordinary situation. we have been speaking to haiti's ambassador.

here's a little of his reflections. i understand our mistakes of the past are still haunting them of course. but what about the reality of today on the ground? with the international community continue to stay out whilst those guys are continue to kill people and do all those things? know. i think the international community has a responsibility to protect, to help us, to make sure that we take those gangs out of service and make sure that we follow order. those are the basics. . �* , that we follow order. those are the basics. . �*, ., , ., ., that we follow order. those are the basics. ., �*, ., , ., ., ,, basics. haiti's ambassador to the us are callin: basics. haiti's ambassador to the us are calling for _ basics. haiti's ambassador to the us are calling for something _ basics. haiti's ambassador to the us are calling for something to - basics. haiti's ambassador to the us are calling for something to be - are calling for something to be done, acknowledging there have been mistakes in the past. all are, when it comes to those mistakes help us understand what those are and what the haitians want in terms of a response in the international

need people to come in here because the state is not able to do things by itself. the state is invisible here, absent without leave. the police carry out operations from time to time but it seems quite peaceful. we have been told that every gang has at least two members of the police on the payroll and there is in fact a gang here which is composed of serving and former police officers. as for the international community, it is pretty clear that there is no advertisement to rush back and hair. there are still discussions taking place at the united nations about a potential for a place at the united nations about a potentialfor a response but that would be a did non—un force. at the moment there is no agreement, certainly no agreement who would take part and who would lead the mission as it was to come here. orla thank you and from the team there.

russia has launched another wave of long—range missiles on ukraine. they came hours after explosions to military airfields in russian's territory which moscow has blamed on kyiv. they are known to be among cities targeted and officials in zaporizhzhia region has said that two people were killed when the missiles hit a residential area. here are images of citizens huddling in the metro system, some of them taking their pets with them. the governor says that 40% of the region is without electricity after infrastructure there was hurt. in edessa, the main water has been cut. the main water edessa, the main water has been cut. the main water supply edessa, the main water has been cut. the main water supply sad... well,

and pressure. so, they are saying that they used air defences to good effect but, there have been outages. we know from the main grid operator, the state backed grid operate the energy infrastructure has been hit in as you say, one of the statistics we are hearing today is that around 40% of the kyiv region is without power. i look around and i can see lights on in the city. it always takes a few hours for the full information to a as to how bad the damage has been. we know the infrastructure was hit in the region of the death, there have been reports as well that two people died in the region of zaporizhzhia as well. ,, in the region of zaporizhzhia as well.�* ,, ., ~' in the region of zaporizhzhia as well. ,, ., ~' , well. jessica parker there in kyiv. we are going _ well. jessica parker there in kyiv. we are going to _ well. jessica parker there in kyiv. we are going to stay _ well. jessica parker there in kyiv. we are going to stay with - well. jessica parker there in kyiv. we are going to stay with this - we are going to stay with this conflict because the russian media is saying that vladimir putin has visited the bridge which linked russia to the annexed crimea. the

bridge was badly damaged by the explosion in october and media are showing television footage of the russian president apparently driving on the bridge. as he drove, he was briefed about repairs to this multi—billion structure by the deputy prime minister. the kremlin built the bridge in 2014, shortly after it had annexed crimea from ukraine. china has been signalling a shift in its covid stance as it heads to ease restrictions. although this stops well short of complete reopening it is being seen as a sign that officials have abandon the idea of trying to reduce each outbreak to zero new infections. the changes come in the wake of street protests in many cities with residents calling for an and to the policy of zero covid. our china correspondent reports.

beijing's underground trains are starting to look more crowded again. commuters no longer need a recent pcr test in order to enter a station. in some chinese cities shopping centres have also removed the covid test requirement as a prerequisite for entry. even in places where infections have not come down, office workers are heading back to their buildings. but the quiet streets in the capital showjust how far china has to go to return to normal. chanting a recent spate of anti—zero—covid protests showed the communist partyjust how sick of virus restrictions the public had become. then the death of former leaderjiang zemin made the situation even more difficult for xi jinping's administration. many people remember thejiang era as a time of opening and high—speed growth. then they compare this to now. also, fears that popular mourning could lead to greater tensions have meant no public participation at his funeral. so the focus has been on changing

covid provisions as a way of gradually easing the pressure. the government here was never going to come out and say to people, "look, sorry, we have properly kept these heavy restrictions on you for much longer than we should have." instead, it has opted for the line that "the virus has changed, therefore, our responses to it can change." those who have been out in the street protesting, demanding an end to zero—covid, they don't care how officials word it, as long as they can get their old lives back. translation: the recent easing of covid restriction is actually - in the best interest of most of the people. it is not too fast, and it is not too slow. translation: i think the changes are definitely good. _ we have been waiting for our work and our lives to return to normal. of course, it isn't enough. you can see the traffic. but work hasn't resumed properly. kids aren't back in school. we want this to change

as soon as possible. it seems the government has given up on its goal of reducing each outbreak to zero infections. but it fears a rush on the hospitals if it moves too quickly. so a broader opening up is expected to take many more months. stephen mcdonnell, bbc news, beijing. let's turn to the world cup. as we went on air brazil were taking on career and the school is 2—0 to brazil at the moment. it was an even on the other match of the day, croatia have beatenjapan on penalties and they are in the world cup quarterfinals. it was a really even game that ended 1—1 after the extra time, but croatia's experience

in the tournament prevailed. the croatians scored three penalties, and goalkeeper dominik livakovic was the hero of the day, saving three in the shoot—out. croatia becomes the next to qualify after france, argentina and england. england will take on world cup holders france on saturday in the quarterfinal, after beating senegal 3—0 in the last 16 on sunday. france are the reigning world champions, beating croatia 4—2 in the 2018 final in russia. they are ranked fourth in the world, one place above england. england and france have not met in the knockout rounds of a men's major football tournament before. they have faced each other in group rounds and friendlies 31 times, with england winning 17 to france's nine victories. our sports reporter nesta mcgregor is in doha. we have already seen some action when it comes to brazil. yes. when it comes to brazil. yes, absolutely- — when it comes to brazil. yes, absolutely. it _ when it comes to brazil. yes, absolutely. it is _ when it comes to brazil. yes, absolutely. it is worth - when it comes to brazil. yes, absolutely. it is worth saying| when it comes to brazil. yes, - absolutely. it is worth saying that when brazil are in town there isn't a spare ticket in sight. definitely one of the most well supported teams here in doha. you can see a one or

two people late in and they have already missed two goals. 20 or so minutes in, brazilare already missed two goals. 20 or so minutes in, brazil are 2—0 out. then the big news ahead of this game was the big news ahead of this game was the return of neymar. how fit is he? turns out pretty fit because he just converted a penalty to make it 2—0. there were concerns over neymar, he hasn't played since the opening game. he had an ankle injury but he is back. so often he plays for brazil, 76 goals for his country. it is worth saying that neymar divides opinion. people talk about his style of play in the way he reacts when he is fouled, after that she is a pretty controversial character as well. let's take the recent elections in brazil for well. let's take the recent elections in brazilfor example. as one of my counterparts in that country can explain. he one of my counterparts in that country can explain.— one of my counterparts in that

worth saying that that place in the quarterfinal is up for the winner of that one they will play croatia. most of the teams, all of the teams have been favourites to wear and have been favourites to wear and have already gone through. france, argentina, the netherlands, england, croatia earlier. tomorrow it is spain versus morocco and portugal versus switzerland. anything we know about the world cup there is generally an underdog team. if we don't see an upside tonight we may have to wait until tomorrow.- have to wait until tomorrow. just in terms of the _ have to wait until tomorrow. just in terms of the mood _ have to wait until tomorrow. just in terms of the mood when _ have to wait until tomorrow. just in terms of the mood when it - have to wait until tomorrow. just in terms of the mood when it comes l have to wait until tomorrow. just in | terms of the mood when it comes to the fans there. this has been such, in terms of the location of this world cup, controversial but how the fund is taking to the football now we're seeing so much action? i think to be honest — we're seeing so much action? i think to be honest the _ we're seeing so much action? i think to be honest the majority _ we're seeing so much action? i think to be honest the majority of - we're seeing so much action? i think to be honest the majority of the - to be honest the majority of the fans i have spoken to it has been a pleasant experience. i cannot speak for everyone. we know the issue coming into this tournament about

tournament, not including friendlies and other matches. i'll be back in just a few minutes' time. get in touch on twitter. always good to hear from you. touch on twitter. always good to hearfrom you. goodbye. good evening. it already feels as if winter has arrived and it is going to get colder. we will see the first snow of the season mainly in scotland initially that widespread frost throughout. the reason is the change of wind direction. we are being engulfed across the uk by these northerly wins, right the way from the arctic and with them the increasing risk of snow. we will see the shower is continuing overnight but we are getting away from the easterly wind that we have had to this northerly already. the cloud will become more broken as the showers ease away from the easterly wind that we have had to this northerly already. the cloud

will become more broken through the night as the showers either way in land. and that means clearer skies overnight we so, there may be one or two icy patches around but the coming two nights we see the frost becoming more widespread as we can see here. temperatures dipping further each night is that frost become sharp and more penetrating, particularly with the strength of the wind added on. very cold weather to come by night and by day as well. we notice that tomorrow, despite the sunshine. a few showers in the south of england, instead there's start to drift into scotland, north—east england, across east anglia. one or two through the irish sea as well and to the coast of wales, temperatures as we say, will be a degree or two lower than today. adding on that chilly wind in the north—east and it will feel cold this still. by wednesday, we seeing a lot more snow is starting to come down to lower levels because the area is getting colder all the time. already, the met office have issued

a warning for potentially disruptive snow across the north of scotland, blizzard is blowing as well, five to ten centimetres but even at lower levels, look at the just two or three celsius. further south just five or six. that strong wind across northern and eastern areas which are still going to play a factor as we go from one centre thursday. ? to what happens to that where bigger picture is that by the time we get to the end of thursday the air will be cold enough that inland if we do get some cold showers they are likely to be colder. do stay tuned in to the fore because they are on the website.

we begin in the uk. the uk labour leader, sir keir starmer, has promised "the biggest ever transfer of power from westminster to the british people" if elected. his party has published a report by the former prime minister gordon brown setting out plans for sweeping constitutional change. that includes abolishing the house of lords, which the labour leader described as "indefensible". the biggest ever transfer of power from westminster to the british people. it is notjust to governance, but how we are governed. the tools to a fairer society and a stronger economy, placed directly in the hands of working people. let's take a look at some of the key

proposals in that report. it includes plans to transfer 50,000 jobs from whitehall to outside of london. it also sets out to ban the vast majority of second jobs for mps and eliminate foreign money from uk politics. it proposes to set up a new anti—corruption commissioner "to root out criminal behaviour in british political life where it occurs". it wants to give local authorities new fiscal powers to raise revenue, include scottish parliament in international agreements involving scottish areas, create new directly elected mayors in scotland and establish hundreds of regional clusters of innovation. here's former prime minister gordon brown, who headed the report. to secure the irreversible transfer of wealth, income and opportunity that we want to see, we also need an irreversible transfer of power. past devolution settlements, as tracy has just described, have left the centre unreformed, so to ensure the right powers are in the right places we must first stop the wrong powers being wielded by the wrong people in the wrong places, so the new britain needs a new westminster and we

need a new whitehall. now let's focus on the house of lords. it is the upper house of the uk parliament. its members scrutinise bills, investigate government activity through committee work and question government through oral and written questions, as well as debates. let's hear from the labour leader, sir keir starmer. replacing the unelected house of lords with a new, smaller, democratically—elected second chamber. not only less expensive, but also representing the regions and nations of the united kingdom. she let's hear too from baroness hayman, who was speaker of the house of lords from 2006 to 2011. my concern is that we run the risk of getting into another quagmire about an elected second chamber. the issues that most people talk about with the house of lords are not the quality of work that it

does, but how people get there and its size. as we heard there, the house of lords is criticised by many for its size and the way members are appointed. it is the only upper house of any so—called �*bicameral�* parliament in the world to be larger than its lower house. there are currently 786 sitting members, of which 91 are hereditary peers and the rest life peers. the uk is the only country in the world besides lesotho with hereditary lawmakers. life peers consist of non—party—political peers who are recommended by the appointments commission, political parties and the public. once they are approved by the prime minister, the king formalises the appointments. some appointments have been quite controversial. for instance, borisjohnson appointed his close allies to the upper house during and after his premiership. in november, he offered his former assistant charlotte owen, who's believed to be in her late 20s

and with less than two years' experience in government, to sit in the houe of lords for life. in 2020, mrjohnson nominated the russian oligarch evgeny lebedev, who owns the evening standard newspaper, for a life peerage, a move that drew widespared criticism. the two are believed to be close since mrjohnson's days as london mayor. now let's hear from a conservative peer. here's lord norton. house of lords recognises that some changes are desirable and achievable. we want to move towards achievable. we want to move towards a house that is no bigger than the house of commons that retains at least 20% of the members that are crossbenchers, those are independent piers, and that is independence there would be lost if we started to elect the second chamber.

here's our political correspondent nick eardley. we don't yet have many specifics from labour about exactly what and when they want to introduce. but it is designed to be the start of a conversation, i suppose, in the labour party about how to make that transfer of power away from here in westminster around the country. a big part of that is going to be that plan to abolish the house of lords and replace it with an elected chamber instead. but again, that is something that the labour party has talked about for quite a while that is tricky to do and will take a lot of commitment to see through. now let's take a look at the devolvement of power from london to other regions in the uk. as we mentioned, the scottish parliament is to be included in international agreements involving scottish areas.

what we are saying is we will bring change in the uk that will benefit scotland, as opposed to leaving the uk, which we think will damage scotland. , , ., , scotland. here is the plight camry here in westminster. _ scotland. here is the plight camry here in westminster. this - scotland. here is the plight camry here in westminster. this is - scotland. here is the plight camry here in westminster. this is a - scotland. here is the plight camry l here in westminster. this is a damp su uib. here in westminster. this is a damp squib- labour— here in westminster. this is a damp squib. labour are _ here in westminster. this is a damp squib. labour are in _ here in westminster. this is a damp squib. labour are in power- here in westminster. this is a damp squib. labour are in power in - here in westminster. this is a damp| squib. labour are in power in wales, but you look at the opera they put on the table for scotland and where you have the snp in power, in all honesty what gc is labour in all of the snp. wejust honesty what gc is labour in all of the snp. we just get a piecemeal offer, crumbs of the table of powers it is for wales. hannah white from the nonpartisan think tank the institute for government. looking at these proposals, they want to open up a conversation. in terms of getting any of this through, it involves changes in legislation, or can they, if they run with this is a mandate in the

next election, can they push this through? it next election, can they push this throu . h? ., through? it would require legislation, _ through? it would require legislation, that - through? it would require legislation, that is - through? it would require i legislation, that is obviously doable if you have a manifesto pledge to get something through parliament, but history has shown us in particular house of lords reform is difficult to achieve. there are a lot of people in the house of lords to have an interest in resisting change, so if labour really want to do this and see it as a first—term issue and they will have to think carefully about how to win popular support from the public for these changes because that is really work and make the difference. ls changes because that is really work and make the difference.— and make the difference. is there an hinu and make the difference. is there anything they _ and make the difference. is there anything they can _ and make the difference. is there anything they can do _ and make the difference. is there anything they can do that - and make the difference. is there | anything they can do that wouldn't require such a huge upheaval their proposals? is there something they could push through if they got into government?— could push through if they got into government? there is quite a lot of detail in the — government? there is quite a lot of detail in the report _ government? there is quite a lot of detail in the report on _ government? there is quite a lot of detail in the report on some - detail in the report on some specific changes they want to make, in the civil service, for example. moving civil servant out of london

would require legislation. they say this is constitutional change that they wanted to be difficult to undo, thatis they wanted to be difficult to undo, that is where the house of lords is crucial. if you give the house of lords and you power to resist constitutional change, to be the owner and protector of the constitution, then that makes it harder when the substrate —— subsequent government comes in and doesn't like that, for it to be undone. ., , ., , ., , doesn't like that, for it to be undone. ., , , , undone. one of the proposals is the scottish parliament _ undone. one of the proposals is the scottish parliament to _ undone. one of the proposals is the scottish parliament to be _ undone. one of the proposals is the scottish parliament to be included l scottish parliament to be included in international agreements which involve scottish areas. does something like that, how would that impact say the argument for scottish independence? would that need legislative change? it is independence? would that need legislative change?— legislative change? it is not entirely clear _ legislative change? it is not entirely clear exactly - legislative change? it is not entirely clear exactly what i legislative change? it is not. entirely clear exactly what they legislative change? it is not - entirely clear exactly what they are proposing in that space. i couldn't tell you definitively if it would require legislation. gordon brown as a unionist will be hoping that it

will take a bit of the wind out of the sails of the independence movement, as well, he hopes, proposals around entrenching the position of scotland as a devolved nation and using again the reform of the house of lords as a check to make sure that legislation can't be passed at the scottish parliament doesn't approve it. the passed at the scottish parliament doesn't approve it.— doesn't approve it. the other big headhne doesn't approve it. the other big headline out _ doesn't approve it. the other big headline out of _ doesn't approve it. the other big headline out of these _ doesn't approve it. the other big headline out of these 40 - doesn't approve it. the other big headline out of these 40 or- doesn't approve it. the other big headline out of these 40 or so i headline out of these 40 or so proposals is this idea to change the house of lords to eliminate, to make it electable. i wonder in terms of appetite from the house of lords, what is your reading habits? i think there is never _ what is your reading habits? i think there is never going _ what is your reading habits? i think there is never going to _ what is your reading habits? i think there is never going to be - what is your reading habits? i think there is never going to be much - there is never going to be much appetite from the house of lords to see significant reform. there have been a lot of proposals within the house of lords itself, which is conscious i think of its problems in terms of legitimacy, in terms of the way people arrive in the house of lords, but to be honest there have

been lots of proposals in the past of ways to remove peers, to cut out the numbers, encourage people to retire, to introduce at two out one in policy and so on. all of these things depend on political will and when you get a prime minister like borisjohnson he was very keen putting people in the house of lords, to go out the window. i can see why the labour party is going for a more big bang approach because dace would say that the incremental approach hasn't worked so far. thank ou. in iran, spokesman for the morality police has said that they have come to an end. a spokesman confirmed in

an interview that the mission of moral and social security patrol has now terminated. he also suggested that the hijab roots were to be maintained no less true parsley, but noted that the fashion in which they are to be implemented is at this stage and authorities will be working on. that appears to clarify what the country's chief prosecutor announced on saturday, saying they had been shot down. let's remind ourselves that it was the death of a woman who was detained by that force that sparked nationwide protests. she collapsed shortly after being harassed —— arrested in tehran in september. there were reports that morality police officers beat ahead with the pattern. police said she suffered a heart attack. anti—government protests swept across iran. today shopkeepers have shut down their shops in dozens of

iranian cities, the first of three days of actions including national strikes against the government. for more on this, let's speak to bbc persia's correspondent. help us to understand, is this an effective closure of this morality police, or are we just seeing a new force being opened up under a different name? this is by no way the abolishment of the morality police. we know for sure what the statement made by the spokesman, he said that the mission of the morality police in its current form has come to an end, patsy will introduce a new modern use of technology to enforce hijab, as many of the analysts have been saying over the past few days when the iranian authorities happy making

contradictory statements on the hijab. they say it is an ideological pillar of the clerical regime in iran and it is hard to envisage an islamic republic without the hijab. this is in no way the abolishment of the morality police. to unpick that a little bit, why this woman. is that she wasn't wearing her hijab and the correct manner. will there be discrepancies on how it can be worn or will it continue to have to be worn in particular way?— continue to have to be worn in particular way? there is a law, assed particular way? there is a law, passed a _ particular way? there is a law, passed a few _ particular way? there is a law, passed a few decades - particular way? there is a law, passed a few decades ago - particular way? there is a law, passed a few decades ago on | particular way? there is a law, - passed a few decades ago on that. the way they have been interpreting that law has been different over time since her death, the morality police has been gone, it's not on

the streets, you don't see them because many of those people where does morality police were working, they were carrying out our crackdown on protesters and as you said earlier there has been a call for three days of strikes and protests in the city, and the scene at the main cities have changed since then, so women are not wearing their hijab, as we understand. they are doing this as a civil disobedience gesture or move. is it possible for the islamic republic to enforce that strict dress code again on these women? we should wait and see, but as we know at the moment there is no way that they can enforce that strict rule on the streets the way they did because now over 400 people

have been killed in these protests, many of them women and children, since mahsa amini's death, and they seem to understand that they have to make a change, but many are saying that the hijab is so important for the supreme leader of iran, as we had reports earlier this week that he has four aqueret lands —— four red lines and one of them is the hijab. it is hard to see a situation where they were totally forget their understanding of the hijab for women. understanding of the hi'ab for women. . ~' understanding of the hi'ab for women. ., ~ ,., understanding of the hi'ab for women. . ~ ,. y . stay with us. still to come, we will be looking at one of the grand scientific projects of the 21st century, a telescope begins construction across two continents.

the monarch butterfly, known for its beautiful black round wins has been declared endangered lastjuly by the international convention for the conservation of nature. there is hope for it yet. monarchs rarely give up their thrones willingly and these monarch butterflies are no exception. there are currently endangered after a big drop in their population. scientists believe clive —— climate change, pesticide and illegal logging are threatening their very existence, but they are making a comeback. translation:— but they are making a comeback. translation: now we have more butterflies, _ translation: now we have more butterflies, more _ translation: now we have more butterflies, more arrived - translation: now we have more butterflies, more arrived here - butterflies, more arrived here because the colony is bigger, and notjust here. there is another place where there are even more butterflies and further on there is even a bigger colony.—

diarrhoea diseases. therefore, we are was spending as a district. we still give them the messages about prevention, but we are expecting the increase in the number of cases. since the beginning of the year, more than 29 countries around the world have reported cholera cases with africa bearing the highest burden and with climate change, droughts and floods and ever present threat, more outbreaks are expected. one of the most significant scientific projects of the 21st century begins its construction today on the world's biggest telescope. the square kilometre array is a network of radio antenna.

infrastructure will be split across south africa and australia. the headquarters will be in the uk. this project is due to be completed in 2028 and it will address some of the major outstanding questions in astrophysics. we are joined major outstanding questions in astrophysics. we arejoined now by the head of astrophysics at... you are just the perfect person to explain, what is this telescope going to tell us?— explain, what is this telescope going to tell us? this telescope is very exciting _ going to tell us? this telescope is very exciting and _ going to tell us? this telescope is very exciting and it _ going to tell us? this telescope is very exciting and it will— going to tell us? this telescope is very exciting and it will tell - going to tell us? this telescope is very exciting and it will tell us - very exciting and it will tell us some of the biggest answers we think about the nature of the universe. some of the questions it is trying to answer is what is the nature of gravity? we know that the theory of general relativity has been seminal and helping us understand space—time, but is it the final theory of gravity? in particular, we know that the universe is expanding,

but not only is it expanding to that expansion is getting faster. we don't understand that, so we know that our laws of physics and are complete. we will look back as far as possible to the cosmic dawn and we are hoping to see the impact of the first stars and galaxies forming and really understand hydrogen, that simple element that suffuses the whole of the universe. we will be looking at the light that comes from those hydrogen atoms to look back at the cosmic dawn. we expect to find things we haven't looked for. serendipity will be the final bit of thejigsaw, which we serendipity will be the final bit of the jigsaw, which we are excited about. we the jigsaw, which we are excited about. ~ ., , ., ., about. we only have a minute left, but in terms _ about. we only have a minute left, but in terms that _ about. we only have a minute left, but in terms that this _ about. we only have a minute left, but in terms that this is _ about. we only have a minute left, but in terms that this is a - about. we only have a minute left, but in terms that this is a radio - but in terms that this is a radio telescope, how does this one compared to the james webb, what else will tell us and how is it different to telescope?- different to telescope? both telescopes _ different to telescope? both telescopes operate - different to telescope? both telescopes operate by - different to telescope? entry telescopes operate by detecting light. james webb works in the

with clear skies overnight will see more widespread frost come tomorrow morning. there may be one or two icy patches around, but the frost will become more widespread. temperatures dipping further each night as the frost becomes sharper and more penetrating, particularly with the strength of the wind added on. so some very cold weather to become —— to come by night and by day. fewer showers in certain parts of england tomorrow, instead they start to drift into northern and eastern scotland, down towards the borders, across east anglia. one or two down to the irish sea, as well. temperatures will be a degree or so lower than today. out on the chilly wind and able will feel colder so. by wind and able will feel colder so. by wednesday, we are seeing a lot more snow is starting to come down to lower levels because the air is getting colder all the time. already

the met office have issued a warning for potentially disruptive snow across the north of scotland, blizzards blowing as well, five up to ten centimetres around. even at lower levels there will be snow. factor in that strong went across northern and eastern areas, which are still going to be a factor as you go through wednesday into thursday. the question of what happens to that particular weather fronts. the bigger picture is when we get to the end of 30 the air will be cold enough that inland if we do see showers they are likely to fall as snow. do stage into the forecast, the warnings are on the website.

hello, i'm kasia madera. this is outside source. on the programme tonight — haiti in crisis. dire warnings from the caribbean nation, as armed gangs extend their control of the country. i was in the house and i was so scared i was shaking. i didn't know what to do. they mostly kill young man. residents sheltered below ground as russia launches long—range missiles on ukraine. construction begins across two continents on the world's biggest

telescope. and brazil is 4—0 up against south korea in the world cup. we start in haiti. the united nations says the country is on the verge of the abyss, as heavily armed gangs expand their control of the country. the un has documented 934 killings in the capital, and 680 kidnappings in the first six months of this year. most of the victims were not directly involved in gangs but were targeted by armed groups. violence has escalated since the assassination of the country's presidentjovenel moise injuly of 2021 — a crime for which no one has been put on trial in haiti. our senior international correspondent orla guerin sent this special report from the haitian capital. and, a warning, her report contains distressing material.

this is gang territory in port—au—prince, almost as far as the eye can see. but it seems the world isn't looking. and the haitian capital has become a gangster�*s paradise. it's morning in a middle—class suburb. minutes after a shoot—out, a show of force by the police. but usually it's the gangs who call the shots. there are over 100 armed groups in the city instilling fear and silence. police are still searching the scene here. there's an ak—47 on the ground and some ammunition. there are also drops of blood. now, this is an armoured car. police say they were tracking it for about two weeks. they say it was being used by a kidnap gang. it's about eight in the morning here, and morning and evening rush hours are peak time

for the kidnappers. there was a battle with the police officers and the bad guys. one of them died. and we got the vehicle and this is one of the weapons the bad guys had in their hands. do they have many armoured vehicles, the kidnappers? i don't know, there are plenty. i'm sure there are plenty. nearby, the body of an alleged gang member. the police told us, "we stopped them today." across town, francois sinclaire has just been patched up at a trauma hospital run by doctors without borders. he saw gunmen holding up two cars in front of his. when he tried to get away, he got a bullet in the arm. have you ever thought that the violence is so bad here that you would like to leave haiti?

10,000 times, he tells me. "i can't even call my mum to tell her what happened to me because she's getting older. "in the end, the way things are, it's better to leave if you can." claudette is another recent victim of the gangs. she was hit by a stray bullet and lost her leg. "i don't know how i'll manage," she says. "i can't run and walk the way i used to." she worries she will never marry now. rapid gunfire. gang warfare often erupts here in broad daylight. why not? gunshots. gunmen are in league with corrupt politicians and have some police on the payroll.

that's according to human rights campaigners who say the gangs of port—au—prince have no limits. there are many here with stories that are harrowing to tell and to hear. like this man. his neighbourhood is controlled by a gang whose rivals came on a killing spree. for his safety, we are not naming the area or the armed group involved. translation: i was in the house i and i was so scared, i was shaking. i didn't know what to do. they mostly kill young men. my wife took me and hid me under the bed and covered me with piles of clothes. and my nephew was hiding in the wardrobe.

soon, the gunmen were in his house. when his nephew ran from his hiding place, they chased him and killed him. what hurts me the most is that when i was under the bed i couldn't see, but i could hear the men raping my wife. they were raping her and i was under the bed and i could say nothing. he sobs. there are things you would never wish on anyone, he says. his wife is now pregnant and they don't know if he is the father. he tells us haiti has been erased from their hearts.

some police here are risking their lives trying to make the streets safe. but others have actually formed their own gang. and haiti's weak and tainted government is accused of looking the other way as the crisis deepens. orla guerin, bbc news, port—au—prince. orla joined me from the haitian capital, port—au—prince. well, haiti has then plagued by political instability for decades. the gangs go back to the time when the president in the 1990s. but what has really changed things, what is really turbo—charge the gang activity is the assassination of the sitting president here injuly of 2021. that is a crime for which nobody has yet been put on trial here. that created a huge power vacuum,

gangs here have been competing to fill it and they operate with protection from political friends, there are people, powerful people in politics her both in government and in the opposition who human rights groups they use the gangs to serve their purpose is to either create electoral support, get control of an area or generate discontent in opposition to one of their rivals. powerful people in business are also accused of using the gangs as a tool from time to time. researchers say what has changed in the last ten years or so is that these links are of criminal organisations and corrupt politicians have become institutionalised and that the gangs, in a sense, used to subcontract people subcontract the gangs to provide political violence as and when they need it. just to give you a sense of how

powerful these gangs are, we have been told by human rights campaigners here that in the event that a gang member is arrested, a single phone call from one of their political backers can get them released within an hours and with their weapons. russia has launched another wave of long—range missiles on ukraine. they came hours after explosions to military airfields in russian's territory which moscow has blamed on kyiv. they are known to be among cities targeted and officials in zaporizhzhia region has said that two people were killed when the missiles hit a residential area. here are images of citizens huddling in the metro system, some of them taking their pets with them. the governor says that 40% of the region is without electricity after infrastructure there was hurt.

in odessa, the main water has been cut. well, ukraine's air force that that more than 60 of the 70 missiles fired at ukraine was shot down by defences. here is the president. i want to thank the air defence forces and our people. air defence shot down those missiles, our engineers have begun to restore electricity, i'll people never give up. glory to ukraine. the russian strikes came hours after strikes of two air bases inside russia. they say that a tanker exploded near the city of ryazan. and there are people thought to have been hurt by another explosion. they say that the blasts were caused by ukrainian drones.

a tweet from the president zelensky�*s advisor. it appears to refer to the reported incidents. he writes that if... these are satellite images taken on sunday, they appear to show a large fleet of russian missiles at the base. the strategic are capable of firing missiles, one of the things used against ukraine. our correspondent told us about the day's development. air raid alerts started going off today and many people took shelter including us here in kyiv. then we saw a wave of missile strikes. what ukrainian authorities are saying, officials are saying is that over 70 missiles were fired

and that they intercepted around 60 of them. so there have been a lot of praise this evening from officials for ukrainian air defences. the supply of air defences from backers of ukraine has been an ongoing point of discussion and pressure. so, they are saying that they used air defences to good effect but, there have been outages. we know from the main grid operator, the state—backed grid operate the energy infrastructure has been hit in as you say, one of the statistics we are hearing today is that around 40% of the kyiv region is without power. i look around and i can see lights on in the city. it always takes a few hours for the full information to a as to how bad the damage has been. we know the infrastructure was hit in the region of the death, —— we know the infrastructure was hit in the region of odesa,

there have been reports as well that two people died in the region of zaporizhzhia as well. jessica parker there in kyiv. we are going to stay with this conflict because the russian media is saying that vladimir putin has visited the bridge which linked russia to the annexed crimea. the bridge was badly damaged by the explosion in october and russian media are showing television footage of the russian president apparently driving on the bridge. as he drove, he was briefed about repairs to this multi—billion structure by the deputy prime minister. the kremlin built the bridge in 2014, shortly after it had annexed crimea from ukraine. we move to iran now, where the spokesperson

confirmed that the mission of moral and social security patrols has now terminated. it was suggested that hijab rules were to be maintained no less robust lay but the fashion in which they were to be implemented at public levels is a decision authorities will be working on. that appears to clarify what the chief prosecutor said on saturday, saying they have been shut down from where they have been shut down from where they were set up. let's remind ourselves. it was the death of a woman detained by the force that sparked nationwide protests, this is a mahsa amini who collapsed shortly after being arrested in tehran in september. there were reports that the morality police officers beat her head with a baton but police say she suffered a heart attack. anti—government protests swept across iran after she died in hospital a few days after her arrest and today shopkeepers have shut down

their shops in dozens of uranium rush iranians cities. for more on this, our correspondent. we know for sure what the statement made by the spokesman, he said that the mission of the morality police in its current form has come to an end, patsy will introduce a new modern use of technology to enforce hijab, as many of the analysts have been saying over the past few days when the iranian authorities happy making contradictory statements on the hijab. they say it is an ideological pillar of the clerical regime in iran and it is hard to envisage an islamic republic without the hijab. this is in no way the abolishment of the morality police.

to unpick that a little bit, why this woman, mahsa amini, was stopped, she wasn't wearing her hijab and the correct manner. will there be discrepancies on how it can be worn or will it continue to have to be worn in particular way? there is a law, passed a few decades ago on that. the way they have been interpreting that law has been different over time since her death, the morality police has been gone, it's not on the streets, you don't see them because many of those people where on the streets, you don't see them because many of those people who were the morality police were working, they were carrying out our crackdown on protesters and as you said earlier there has been a call for three days of strikes

and protests in the city, and the scene at the main cities have changed since then, so women are not wearing their hijab, as we understand. they are doing this as a civil disobedience gesture or move. is it possible for the islamic republic to enforce that strict dress code again on these women? we should wait and see, but as we know at the moment there is no way that they can enforce that strict rule on the streets the way they did because now over 400 people have been killed in these protests, still to come, we will be looking at one of the grand scientific projects of the 21st century, a telescope begins construction across two continents.

john lennon was shot at the entrance to the dakota building in the centre of new york. there's been a crowd here standing in more or less silent vigil and the flowers have been piling up. the 14th ceasefire of this war ended at the walls of the old city of dubrovnik. this morning witnesses said shells were landing every 20 seconds. people are celebrating the passing of a man they hold responsible for hundreds of deaths and oppression. elsewhere, people have been gathering to mourn his passing. imelda marcos, the widow of the former president i of the philippines, has gone on trial in manila. _ she's facing seven i charges of tax evasion estimated at £120 million. she pleaded not guilty. the prince and princess of wales are to separate. the statement from buckingham palace said the decision had been reached amicably.

croatia have progressed to the next stage of the competition after a penalty shoot—out with japan. it stage of the competition after a penalty shoot-out with japan. it was an even game _ penalty shoot-out with japan. it was an even game that _ penalty shoot-out with japan. it was an even game that ended _ penalty shoot-out with japan. it was an even game that ended 1-1 i penalty shoot-out with japan. it was an even game that ended 1-1 after i an even game that ended 1—1 after extra time but croatia's experience in the tournament prevailed with them scoring three penalties and the goalkeeper was the hero of the day, saving three in the shoot—out.

meanwhile, england will take on world cup holders france on saturday in the quarterfinal after beating senegal 3—0 in the last 16 on sunday. france, the reigning world champions, they beat croatia 4— to backin champions, they beat croatia 4— to back in the 2018 final in russia. they are ranked fourth in the world, one place above england, england and france have not meant in the knockout rounds of the men's major football tournament before, although they have faced each other in other rounds in friendlies 31 times when they have beaten them 17, to france for mac nine victories. it is worth saying that when brazil are in town there isn't a spare ticket in sight. definitely one of the most well supported teams here in doha. you can see a one or two people late in and they have already missed two goals. 20 or so minutes in, brazil are 2—0 out. then the big news ahead of this game was the return of neymar.

how fit is he? turns out pretty fit because he just converted a penalty to make it 2—0. there were concerns over neymar, he hasn't played since the opening game. he had an ankle injury but he is back. so often he plays for brazil, 76 goals for his country. it is worth saying that neymar divides opinion. people talk about his style of play in the way he reacts when he is fouled, after that she is a pretty but off the field, he's a pretty controversial as well. let's take the recent elections in brazilfor example. as one of my counterparts in that country can explain. this election was very divisive. and he is the only player that openly supported candidate, all the other players you would guess who

they would vote for but none of them will actually save. because he was only one and i think if he had said that he had supported lula he would have gotjust as much publicity and outrage from people but what really angered people is that he said he would dedicate his first goal to bolsonaro because, you know, this separates politics and the player is not separating sports and politics he is bringing a sense of the world cup and that is where you got what got people angry. controversial or not, if neymar scores any of the winning goals or lifts that trophy you might have people for giving for the mistakes he has made. worth saying that that place in the quarterfinal is up for the winner of that one they will play croatia. most of the teams, all of the teams have been favourites to wear and have already gone through. france, argentina, the netherlands, england, croatia earlier.

tomorrow it is spain versus morocco and portugal versus switzerland. anything we know about the world cup there is generally an underdog team. if we don't see an upside tonight we may have to wait until tomorrow. one of the most significant scientific projects of the 21st century — begins its construction today — on the world's biggest telescope. the square kilometre array, or s—k—a, is a network of radio antennae — spread across two continents. it will aim to address some of the major outstanding questions in astro physics. i spoke to professor karol mundell who is a professor of astronomy in the university of bath.

this will tell us some of the biggest answers we think about the nature of the universe. some of the questions it is trying to answer what is the nature of gravity because we know that einstein's theory of general relatively has been seminars in helping us understand. the expansion is getting faster and that was a surprise, we know that our laws of physics are not complete. we will also look back as far as possible to the cosmic dawn and we hope to see the first, the impact of the first stars and galaxies forming and really understand hydrogen so that simple elements that actually it suffuses the whole of the universe, or will be using the light to trace back to the cosmic dawn and we might look for the cradle of life and we also expected find things we have a look for, so it serendipity is going to

be the final piece of the jigsaw which we are really excited about. this pains me to say, we only have a minute left, but in terms of this is a radiotelephone, how does this compare to the james webb? what else will it tell us and how is it different to that telescope? both telesco es different to that telescope? both telescopes operate _ different to that telescope? both telescopes operate by _ different to that telescope? efrit�*i telescopes operate by detecting light across the electromagnetic spectrum, the james webb works in the infrared frequencies. the wavelengths are literally this bake and they can probe right through into darker regions of space but they are both very complement array of one another, they give us two different kinds of views of the distant universe. some of the most energetic processes, some of the coldest places in the universe complement the infrared light we see only from stars and galaxies that we see with the james webb. height only from stars and galaxies that we see with the james webb.— see with the james webb. want to know more? _ see with the james webb. want to know more? there _ see with the james webb. want to know more? there is _ see with the james webb. want to know more? there is an _ see with the james webb. want to know more? there is an article i see with the james webb. want to know more? there is an article by| know more? there is an article by james amos on our website. thank you

for watching. contact me on twitter. it would be lovely to hear from you. tim willcox is here next. goodbye. good evening. it already feels as if winter has arrived but it is going to get colder still this week by day and by night. we will see our first significant snow of the season, mainly in scotland initially but widespread frosts throughout and the reason is the change in wind direction, we will be engulfed in the uk and much of northern europe by these northerly winds, right the way from the arctic and with them, the increasing risk of snow, so we will see the showers continuing through this evening and overnight but we are giving way to the northerly already so that cloud will become more broken through the night as the showers ease away in land and that means with clearer skies over night, we will see more widespread

frost come tomorrow morning. there might be one or two icy patches around but the coming few nights see the fast becoming more widespread, as you can see here, temperatures dipping further each night as the frost becomes sharper and more penetrating, particularly with the strength of the wind added on so some very cold weather to come by night and indeed by day as well, we will notice that tomorrow, despite more sunshine. if showers and southern parts of england, instead they start to drift into northern and eastern scotland towards the borders and across east anglia, one to come down through the irish sea onto the coast of wales, the east northern side of northern ireland but temperatures will be a degree or so lower than today and add on actually wind in the north and the east and it will feel colder still, as it will wednesday, which by wednesday we are seeing a lot more snow starting to come down to lower levels in their showers because the area is getting colder all the time, so already the met office have issued that morning for potentially

disruptive snow across the north of scotland, blizzard is blowing as well, five to ten centimetres around but even at lower levels, look at the temperatures to or degrees —— two or three celsius and factor in the strong wind across northern and eastern areas which will still play a factor as we go through wednesday and thursday, the? —— the question is what happened to that particular weather front but the bigger picture is that by the time we get to the end of thursday, the air will be cold enough that inland if we do see some showers they are likely to fall as snow. do stay tuned to the forecast, the warnings are on the website.

this is bbc news, the headlines... more rail strikes as the rmt union announce industrial action covering christmas eve, christmas day and boxing day. brazil score four goals in their first half against south korea. the government will no longer introduce mandatory new housing targets. the government has backed down on plans to introduce mandatory new housing targets in the face of a rebellion by backbench conservative mps. labour sets out its plans for devolution if it wins the general election, including abolishing the house of lords and more powers for scotland.

hello, you're watching bbc news. last—ditch talks have been taking place to try to avert rail strikes over christmas. the walk—outs between 24—27 december comes on top of strikes already scheduled for december and january. mick lynch says the government needs to be willing to compromise. in regards to the train operating companies, there's been no improved offer from the companies, there's been no improved offerfrom the rail companies, there's been no improved offer from the rail delivery group. the reason for that is because they've had no mandate from the government. the government has not allowed any new offer to be put to us today, and there is a meeting scheduled for tomorrow planned, and we'll see if the real delivery group, on behalf of the train delivery companies has got a mandate to make us an offer. so at the minute we haven't got anything that's acceptable to us. and we feel

that's acceptable to us. and we feel that we are compelled to take this action because of the intransigence of the government, delivered to us by the employers on the government's behalf, and that we've got no choice because what we've been faced with is an extremely detrimental offer, its very poor in relation to the it's very poor in relation to the pay elements, and our members simply aren't in the position to accept the changes the company has put on the table. so the action will go ahead, there will be more action during the close down period on the railway over christmas, and all the other scheduled action in the new year is going ahead. so that's an unfortunate position. we remain open for discussion with the companies, they know what needs to be done to get this dispute progressed and get a settlement going forward. but at the moment we've not got a means to a solution. so our members will have a solution. so our members will have a say in network rail and they'll get a vote individually, they'll get

all the details of the documentation and the changes the company wants to make, as well as the pay proposals they've put up, and they will decide whether they want to sell it or not, and we will know that on monday, 12 december. charlotte gallagher is outside the rmt headquarters. it seems all but certain, certainly from tonight's news, that this industrial action will be going ahead?— news, that this industrial action will be going ahead? yes, and more christmas missouri _ will be going ahead? yes, and more christmas missouri for _ will be going ahead? yes, and more christmas missouri for travellers. i christmas missouri for travellers. we heard extra strikes announced by mick lynch, so from 6pm on christmas eve to 6am on 27 december, that's that additional strike period, then that's on top of the 448 hours strikes that have already been confirmed. —— for 48. strikes that have already been confirmed. —— for48. forthe strikes that have already been confirmed. —— for 48. for the next month, train workers will be on strike for a lot of that time, that means people going at christmas

parties, visiting friends and family over christmas will be affected by that. but mick lynch says the terms and conditions being offered to his membersjust aren't good and conditions being offered to his members just aren't good enough. network rail has made an additional offer of 5% pay rise for this year and 4% for next year, so a total of 9%, and members who are employed by network rail will be battle led —— ballad on that. of the other party involved in this, the train management companies, their members will not be valid on that. so essentially these strikes will go ahead unless there is really some miraculous intervention before then. mick lynch said his members are very angry and it's notjust about pay and conditions, but also about train safety, because under some of the new plans, train drivers would have increasing responsibilities, and his members say that simply not safe. these are driver operated doors, which seems to be the red line. he

also mentioned the government, because there had been talks between the rail minister and he and the past few days — how is it working, who's doing the negotiating here? are the governmentjust watching and advising, and is it network rail and the rail operating directing groups who are doing the actual negotiating?— who are doing the actual neurotiatin? ~ , . ., ~ negotiating? mick lynch from the rmt sa s the negotiating? mick lynch from the rmt says the government _ negotiating? mick lynch from the rmt says the government have _ negotiating? mick lynch from the rmt says the government have a _ negotiating? mick lynch from the rmt says the government have a key i negotiating? mick lynch from the rmt says the government have a key role l says the government have a key role in this, and they are essentially blocking proper negotiations between the rmt, network rail and these train operating companies. the government would deny this and say they are really there to advise, they're not blocking these offers. but there seems to be this real sticking point between the rmt and the government, with neither side willing to budge at the moment. the government says these strikes are unacceptable, especially over the christmas period, but the rmt are not backing down. the mediators are involved as well, but currently it's really hard to see a way out of the

situation — both sides seem really entrenched. situation - both sides seem really entrenched-— situation - both sides seem really entrenched. at the football world cup, brazil got off to an stunning start, with three quick goals against south korea in their second round match. brazil's star player, neymar has also scored with a penalty. he's back on the pitch after an ankle injury forced him to miss out on two games. they're into the second half, and the latest score is 4—0 to brazil. no real problems for the tournament favourites this evening. i've been told its 4—1, south korea hasjust scored, but brazil are far ahead. earlier this afternoon, croatia beatjapan on penalties to reach world cup quarterfinals. the match finished 1—1 after 90 minutes and extra time, which meant it all came down to spot kicks. japan managed to score only one of their penalties — meaning croatia, losing finalists four years ago, will now face brazil almost certainly

in the quarterfinals. the england manager gareth southgate says he's relishing the prospect and it will be the "acid test" for the team. following an impressive 3—0 win against senegal last night, watched here by a tv audience of over 18 million, england take on the current world champions on saturday night. our sports correspondent natalie pirks is in doha. commentator: foden takes it up and takes it on, and gets it in. i and so does saka! when a canter became a stroll. and it's the young lions at it again. england's third goal brought a collective sigh of relief in the stands at the al bayt stadium... ..in the pubs back home. it feels good to be an england fan right now. you'll make this team is playing with a lot of love, a lot of togetherness,— with a lot of love, a lot of togetherness, with a lot of love, a lot of touetherness, . , ., ., with a lot of love, a lot of

the labour leader, sir keir starmer, has promised a huge transfer of power from westminster to the rest of the uk, if his party wins the next election. the house of lords would be abolished and replaced with a smaller, democratically elected second chamber — the proposals include new economic powers for english mayors, local authorities and devolved governments. sir keir starmer says the proposals could be implemented within five years of a labour government. our political editor, chris mason reports from leeds, where labour unveiled its plans. train message: welcome aboard this azuma to leeds. _ how are we governed, and from where? labour want to convince you that too much power is hoarded in london. sir keir starmer headed to leeds. britain is one of the most centralised systems in europe, and the centre has not delivered. i don't want it to fall apart, i want us to build something new. we are on our fifth

prime minister, since this man was in downing street. the ideas labour are exploring have come from a report by gordon brown. we are calling a halt to the over centralisation of power- at the centre that has brought us- conservative sleaze and conservative scandal, and we are ending the long era of the man in whitehall- somehow knowing best. what do you say to those who are struggling to pay bills at the moment and who are worried about the strikes coming up, who hear this this morning and just think it's a bit high—minded and academic? whenever any politician sets out an answer to the underlying issue in the medium and long term, everyjournalist says but i want an answer to what's going to happen in the next few weeks, and we go on and on. we will go on with this sticking plaster approach forever. we've been doing it for 12 years, it's one of the reasons we haven't got anywhere. at this toddler group, parents appeared open—minded, if a little sceptical about the ideas. i mean, it would be really good.

i'm not sure how realistic it is. it would be great to have a bit more representation up north because it is very different to when you go to london. you know, you see the services they have there and you come up here and you try and get the train to sheffield and it take absolutely ages. i see the value of a second chamber, even an unelected second chamber. yeah, i think there is a place for having experts scrutinising policy. yeah, i'd like to believe it. i think it would be great to bring a bit more life to these - places, notjust london. ministers claim labour is late to the party. this government has devolved more power out of london than any government before it, we have created regional mayors across england and we are continuing to do that. we have also extended the powers of the welsh government and the scottish government. devolution is something this government is absolutely committed to. let's be honest, when politicians talk about structures of government, how politics works or doesn't, it doesn't exactly set that many hearts racing because what really matters are outcomes rather than processes.

labour's bet is you have to change who takes decisions and where they are taken for things to get better, but how much of this with they actually deliver if they won? because they are not committing to itjust yet. the next up for the labour leaders present and past, edinburgh, to set out their plan to give scotland more powers as an alternative to independence. chris mason, bbc news. let's get more now from akash paun — he leads the devolution programme for the institute for government, which is a non—partisan think tank. a lot of proposals here but labour talks about a louder voice for scotland. how much louder is that voice going to be a? the interesting thin about voice going to be a? the interesting thing about the _ voice going to be a? the interesting thing about the report _ voice going to be a? the interesting thing about the report published i

thing about the report published todayis thing about the report published today is at actually, despite the talk we just heard from keir starmer there about this package of proposals being a solution to the over centralisation of britain, the heart of the devolution are really about strengthening mayors, local governments, new local partnerships and so on within england. there isn't a huge amount they are in terms of big new powers for scotland or wales and northern ireland. there is a few things to, devolution ofjob centres for scotland and entering into a national agreement in its own name, and that sort of thing. , and one thing it's quite interesting for scotland is an attempt to give devolution greater protection, greater constitutional protection from westminster. and this is labour's answer to the problem, the issue that people in scottish parliament are very concerned about,

that the uk parliament has in recent years quite frequently now basically changed the terms of devolution, taken powers back from scotland sometimes, orjust legislated in devolved matters without agreement, without consent. so they are giving the new reformed house of lords a role in a sense protecting the devolution settlement from the majority in the house of commons. . you mentioned the house of lords what have we got any idea about how the members of a second chamber would be chosen, and also if they are elected, who would take priority, who would have the actual final say between the commons in the lords? �* , ., ., ., ., , lords? there's a lot of details still et lords? there's a lot of details still yet to _ lords? there's a lot of details still yet to be _ lords? there's a lot of details still yet to be filled _ lords? there's a lot of details still yet to be filled in. i lords? there's a lot of details still yet to be filled in. on i lords? there's a lot of details still yet to be filled in. on the i still yet to be filled in. on the lords reform and many other things, but certainly on that issue, we know it'll be an elected chamber, it's

also being described as an assembly of the nations and regions, the idea that the current lords and commons do, they will have a role in representing the nations and so on, but precisely how the composition of this new chamber will be determined is still tbc. labour said that this is still tbc. labour said that this is a big wide package of reforms, it's a long report, 150 pages or so, but actually in terms of the breadth of reforms proposed, there is not so much detail about exactly how it will be legislated for. so i think the next phase for the party, assuming they'll really commit to all this and put into their manifesto, is to turn some of these big ideas into much more precise legislative proposals. thihk

big ideas into much more precise legislative proposals.— legislative proposals. think for 'oinin: us legislative proposals. think for joining us here _ legislative proposals. think for joining us here on _ legislative proposals. think for joining us here on bbc- legislative proposals. think for joining us here on bbc news. i legislative proposals. think for i joining us here on bbc news. thank ou. the government has backed down on plans to introduce mandatory new housing targets in the face of a rebellion by backbench conservative mps. it had been part of a government bill which would have introduced significant changes to the current planning system. our political correspondent jonathan blake is a westminster. it's turned into something of an open debate within the conservative party over how many new homes need to be built and exactly where those homes should be built. and as you say, a good number of conservative mps, around 60, were trying to force a change to the government's legislation on the home—building, levelling up and regeneration bill which would scrap central targets for authorities for the number of new homes they need to build. the government argues those are necessary in order to build up and enough houses, but plenty of conservative mps weren't happy,

arguing it weakened the control of local authorities and would lead to too many of the wrong homes being built in the wrong places. in the face of that rebellion, the conservative government has backed down and compromised— but in doing so, they'll make their overall aim of building more houses harder. melissa laufer joins us melissa lauferjoins us now. from mandatory to advisory, where's the pressure on councils to build these homes? i pressure on councils to build these homes? ~ . , pressure on councils to build these homes? ~' ., , , pressure on councils to build these homes? ~' . , , ., homes? i think the reality is that there will be _ homes? i think the reality is that there will be not _ homes? i think the reality is that there will be not very _ homes? i think the reality is that there will be not very much i homes? i think the reality is that i there will be not very much pressure or compulsion, and i think the fear is, and i think it's a very legitimate fear, that changing the wording of business is very significant and will lead to fewer homes being built. the manifesto ledue in homes being built. the manifesto pledge in 2019 — homes being built. the manifesto pledge in 2019 was _ homes being built. the manifesto pledge in 2019 was 300,000 - homes being built. the manifesto pledge in 2019 was 300,000 new homes being built. the manifesto i pledge in 2019 was 300,000 new homes a year by the mid—20 20s. of course

100,000 homes. that speculative but it figures, it's a 40% drop in housing delivery on where we are now. that brings me onto my second point, which is the timing of the watering down of this measure. really in a lot of ways it couldn't be worse, we are heading towards a recession, at the beginning of what experts will be a two—year downturn, and when we have a housing downturn, builders stop building houses anyway because they are unsure they'll be able to sell them and less sure they'll be able to achieve the prices they want —— prices. a research consultancy were already forecasting a drop in housing starts to the lowest level since 2012, so the setting there is already quite far from the setting there is already quite farfrom rosie, and i think this will make it a lot worse.

going to protect you. i was terrified. i didn't want history to repeat itself. no—one knows the full truth. we know the full truth. that trailer gives the impression that the series won't be particularly flattering for the royal family. particularly flattering for the royalfamily. the particularly flattering for the royal family. the first edition goes out three months after the death of queen elizabeth. harry and meghan are due to make a public appearance in new york tomorrow — from where nada tawfik reports. i think it's evident by now that this will continue to be an issue hanging over the royalfamily, who must now be bracing themselves for the potential fallout. as we saw there, the trailer is set to dramatic music, images and words such as war, hatred, dirty games,

and suffering — it's clearly a wide commentary notjust on an internal family dispute, but allegedly on deep structural problems within the monarchy. now we already saw last week in boston that the drop of the first trailer and a race route which echoed the duchess of sussex's previous comments stole the attention away from the prince and princess of wales's first trip to the united states in eight years. and i think there's really no doubt that as harry and meghan continue to share their feelings, that will continue to make headlines as the first few episodes of the documentary are released, as they accept an award at the robert f kennedy human rights foundation tomorrow night, and of course when prince harry's memoir is released in january. prince harry's memoir is released in janua _ prince harry's memoir is released in janua . , ., january. schools are facing the uk are facin: january. schools are facing the uk are facing difficult _ january. schools are facing the uk are facing difficult decisions i january. schools are facing the uk are facing difficult decisions when | are facing difficult decisions when

hello, i'm christian fraser. you're watching the context on bbc news. the russian defence ministry blames ukraine for the explosions at two of its airbases, both of them hundreds of miles inside russian territory. in response the russians fired another barrage of missiles at targets across ukraine — the eighth bombardment in as many weeks. the kremlin said it hit all 17 of its targets. anarchy in haiti. with armed gangs now in total control, kidnapping, raping, and killing at will. is there any hope for the western hemisphere's poorest nation? and power to the people — labour's blueprint for government — that includes further devolved powers for the nations and regions, and an elected house of lords.
