sentenced the vice president cristina fernandez de kirchner to six years in prison for corruption. the court also banned her from public office for life. ms fernandez de kirchner had denied fraudulently awarding public contracts to a friend while serving as the country's president. she's expected to appeal against the conviction. the united states says it opposes the broadcaster aljazeera taking the killing of palestinian—american reporter shireen abu akleh to the international criminal court. the qatar—based television channel says it has "unearthed new evidence," and claims the veteran reporter was deliberately killed by israeli forces. polls have closed in the us state of georgia in an election which will decide who will take the last remaining seat in the senate. the run—off vote between the democratic incumbent raphael warnock and the republican former football star herschel walker will determine whether the democrats can strengthen their razor thin majority. for more we can cross

to gary 0'donoghue live in atlanta for us. great to get you on the programme. i can see it is getting quite late there. just to get a sense of when we might get a result, any idea at this point? get a result, any idea at this oint? ~ , . ., , ., point? we expected to be a little bit earlier _ point? we expected to be a little bit earlier than - point? we expected to be a little bit earlier than it - point? we expected to be a little bit earlier than it was | little bit earlier than it was last time around. it was sort of two or 3am, in the early hours of the morning, and we are thinking it might be earlier because there is just race there. i am speaking quietly because they are preying off the stage and we don't want to disturb that too much but the vote should be in a little bit earlier. there is some interesting data coming through, suggesting that the turnout on this run—off is higher than people expected, particularly as the weather was pretty bad today. so, that may take a bit longer to count but they are good accounting elections in georgia. they have had five of these big elections

over the last four years. ihl. over the last four years. n, ga , i over the last four years. n, gary, i remember earlier on you were talking about the voter fatigue. it is interesting that you point out that the turnout has been relatively significant higher than expected. talk us through how tight this has been. ~ , . , , been. will, it is incredibly ti . ht. been. will, it is incredibly tight. there _ been. will, it is incredibly tight. there is _ been. will, it is incredibly tight. there is only - been. will, it is incredibly tight. there is only a - been. will, it is incredibly i tight. there is only a couple of points between the two candidates, herschel walker for the republicans and raphael warnock whose party we are at today. they spent tens and tens of millions of dollars, both of these camps, and really the needle has not moved very much. itjust needle has not moved very much. it just shows that you can spend all that money and people's views that stay the same. a lot of it has been spent on negative television ads on both sides, attacking the character of the other, and certainly i found some sort of weariness with that at polling stations this morning. they were not happy with that. the reason the parties do it of course is because it works. it cuts through anything you could

talk about in terms of health policy, education. that is all fine but actually going after your candidate is something people remember.- people remember. really interesting _ people remember. really interesting there, - people remember. really. interesting there, gary. just to say that the boat is also being seen, isn't it, for a test for donald trump's perhaps who publicly backed donald walker? is that helped him or has it harmed him?— has it harmed him? well, it is difficult because _ has it harmed him? well, it is difficult because donald - has it harmed him? well, it is| difficult because donald trump did back herschel walker in the general election at this time around but he has not come to campaign for around but he has not come to campaignfor him. around but he has not come to campaign for him. in fact, the republicans did not want donald trump year, so he is seen as a little bit of a liability at the moment. so, if herschel walker loses tonight, donald trump will in some ways be damaged by that. in many ways, a lot of his other favourite candidates really sort of faded away during the mid terms, but it is still too early to say for certain because these two are so close together, and it can come down to five or 6000 votes here or there in these

rural counties and if those rural counties and if those rural counties and if those rural counties did turn out in numbers that would be good news for herschel walker. garzao for herschelwalker. gary o'donoghue _ for herschelwalker. gary o'donoghue there. - for herschel walker. gary| o'donoghue there. thanks for herschel walker. gary - o'donoghue there. thanks for 0'donoghue there. thanks for keeping us up—to—date on this latest developments in georgia, and i am sure we will have more from gary in later hours of the news bulletin, so do be sure to tune in that. to haiti now, and yesterday we brought you the first of 0rla guerin�*s reports about criminal gangs bringing terror and chaos to the country. the united nations is warning that a humanitarian crisis is unfolding in what is the poorest country in the western hemisphere. almost half the population are facing acute hunger, and armed groups and gangs are complicating efforts to get help to those in need. from the capital port—au—prince, 0rla guerin has the second of her special reports. and a warning — you may find parts of it distressing. a little boy lost. being put out on the street. police evicting families from a public square in port—au—prince.

consigning them to this. many sought refuge here injuly when gang warfare killed at least 300 people in ten days. they have had little help from their failing state. what is happening here now is that people who have already been displaced once are being displaced again. women have been leaving, clutching small children by the hand, carrying whatever they can manage. there is a real sense of despair now. they are wondering where can they go to be safe. here's where they fled from — cite soleil, a place where most fear to tread. it's the poorest part of the capital, and a bastion of the gangs.

the un's world food programme has to negotiate its way in to give out life—saving aid. can't it says 19,000 people here are facing famine—like conditions. a two hour flight from miami. all this is watched carefully by gang members, who remain out of sight. they are also watching us as we film. we can't step outside the gate. how hard is it to try to feed your child? "i can't," sarah tells me, "so my little one is now at my mother's." here, there's shooting every day. and now there is another threat. cholera has returned. five—year—old jocelyn has been hit hard. she is already weakened by malnutrition, like so many children here.

with her godmother by her side, she gets help in time. but much of the suffering here goes unnoticed, unseen by the world. and the greatest plague is the gangs, who own most of the streets. haiti's government has pleaded for foreign troops. so far, the international community is in no rush. there is anger at the idea of more foreign intervention. it has a bad history here. many haitians want their government out, not foreigners in. "the state is collecting taxes," says abner, "but it can't "collect the rubbish. "it can't feed the people. "we will fight until

we overthrow it." this man has been been fighting for a better haiti, as a lawyer and human rights activist, but no—one is immune here, no—one is safe. he lost his entire family, his wife and daughters. here they were in life, sharing a happy moment. they were gunned down by a gang in august. three women, no mercy. translation: you are always waiting for a - call from your child. telling you, dad this, or dad that. and in the blink of an eye, the criminals take away the connection to your child.

this was the family carjust hours after the attack. translation: they take the country hostage, - they make the law here. they kill, they rape, they destroy. and they rob children of what little they have. this boy is 12. he and his mother are now homeless for the second time. first, they fled cite soleil, now the authorities have moved them on. they told us they had no idea where they would go. 0rla guerin, bbc news, port—au—prince. you're watching newsday on the bbc. still to come on the programme: as the row rumbles on, over their forthcoming documentary, the duke and duchess of sussex are about to receive an award

in the us. 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, hasi gone on trial in manila. she is facing seven i charges of tax evasion,

estimated at £120 million. she pleaded not guilty. the prince and princess of wales are to separate. a statement from buckingham palace said the decision had been reached amicably. this is newsday on the bbc. i'm karishma vaswani in singapore. our headlines: more drama at the world cup as morocco beat spain to reach the quarter finals for the first time ever. polls close in georgia as voters cast their ballots in a crucial runoff election for a us senate seat. indonesia's parliament has approved new laws that criminalise sex outside marriage with a threat of imprisonment for up to a year. couples will no longer be allowed to live together before marriage. the new criminal code will not come into effect for another three years and it will apply to both indonesians

and foreigners. professor greg barton, is chair of global islamic politics at the alfred deakin institute for citizenship and globalisation and research in melbourne. he gave me his reaction to the latest developments. it's very disappointing news, it failed three years ago because of massive protests, and just a week ago this was snuck in, no parties want to oppose at. is 600 articles in this new criminal code replacing the hundred year old colonial error criminal code and there's only a few of them that are really disturbing but explicit bands on extramarital sex reported by family members, it's sex reported by family members, its three years before they are implemented so there is a chance after the parliamentary and presidential elections to revise this, implementing regulations haven't been drafted yet so there is a long way to go but it is disappointing.- way to go but it is disappointing. way to go but it is disauointina. a disappointing. as you point out, disappointing. as you point out. three _

disappointing. as you point out, three years _ disappointing. as you point out, three years until- disappointing. as you point out, three years until it i out, three years until it actually gets put into practice and the implementation of this seems kind of vague from what you have described as in the law, what is the president and the government trying to do here? has the government trying to do here? �* , the government trying to do here? as i said, in 1999 there was an attempt _ here? as i said, in 1999 there was an attempt to _ here? as i said, in 1999 there was an attempt to pass i here? as i said, in 1999 there was an attempt to pass this i was an attempt to pass this omnibus replacement of the dutch error criminal code. at failed because of massive protests, some of the provisions have been watered down or sort of made more palatable, for example extramarital sex can only be reported by a family member, a child, a spouse, a parent, that is a serious limitation on the impact it will have and the implementation regulations have not yet been drafted. we've got parliamentary and presidential elections coming up mid 2a so we will probably only get the implementation drafting done after those elections and i think basically the president has picked this down the road stop he doesn't want to make this an election issue during the campaign as it pops up next year and neither it would

appear to the major parties as they fall past this without note. so i think this is going to be hotly contested in a couple of years' time but for the time being they are just trying to push it out of the way ahead of the campaigning season next year. find way ahead of the campaigning season next year.— season next year. and 'ust briefl , season next year. and 'ust briefly. this i season next year. and 'ust briefly, this coming i season next year. and just briefly, this coming off- season next year. and just briefly, this coming off the back of what was seen as a relatively successful g20 for indonesia, opening itself up to the outside world, what's the impression, do you think, foreigners might have as they visit indonesia with these new laws in place? i visit indonesia with these new laws in place?— laws in place? i think when they look— laws in place? i think when they look carefully - laws in place? i think when they look carefully at i laws in place? i think when they look carefully at the i laws in place? i think when i they look carefully at the man of the detail they will recognise that it is not as disastrous as it appears at first but it is really disturbing. the biggest muslim democracy, in fact the most promising muslim democracy and largest muslim majority economy in the world, we saw it on display at the g20. this is out of step with that very positive progressive image but there is a lot more work to be done in indonesia before these articles are implemented and i think we are implemented and i think we are going to see a lot of

contestation. donald trump's property business has been convicted of 17 counts of tax fraud, as well as other financial crimes. the company now faces a fine of $1.6 million. the conviction is a blow to the former us president who has announced he will run again for the white house. our north america correspondent, david willis is following the story. he outlined what the court case means for the trump organisation. the impact of this on the trump organisation and indeed on donald trump himself is pretty negligible. his organisation is looking at a fine of $1.6 million, pretty much pocket change for a company of that size, but as far as the future is concerned, this verdict could have considerable implications, not only on the trump organisation's borrow money at preferential rates but also its ability to secure government contracts moving forward. crucial to all

this of course was the testimony of the former cfo, alan weisenburger, who gave evidence in return for a more lenient sentence. he is due to be sentenced shortly in regard to this tax fraud and he talked about how compensation including tax—free payments on a luxury apartment in manhattan's upper west side, tuition fees paid for his grandchildren, luxury cars and so on. to answer your question about donald trump's response, there has been a statement issued by the trump organisation in which they say that basically this was mr weisenburger acting alone and that the former president and his company knew nothing about what was going on and this statement concludes this case is unprecedented, it is a continuation of the greatest political witch—hunt in the history of our country. political witch-hunt in the history of our country. david, wonder what _ history of our country. david,

wonder what this _ history of our country. david, wonder what this means i history of our country. david, j wonder what this means then history of our country. david, i wonder what this means then for donald trump's presidential ambition in the next election? interestingly, this has no direct impact on that, but it might do so cumulatively, if you like, because the legal woes are ratcheting up for donald trump. he is facing a civil case being brought by the new york attorney general leticia james which directly involves him and his two eldest children. none of those three were named in this particular lawsuit. there is also an investigation by the us department ofjustice into the retention of classified documents at donald trump's mar—a—lago home. there is an investigation going on into the role he played or otherwise in the uprising on the sixth of january last year and so on, and as those investigations play themselves out over the course of the next few years, the cumulative effect that they

could have on donald trump's presidential ambitions could be quite considerable. the duke and duchess of sussex are about to recieve a us award for their stand against racism. it comes as a new netflix documentary is to be released on thursday, offering the couple's perspective on life within the royal family. our correspondent, nada tawfik, is at the presentation in new york and just a warning there is flash photography coming up. they are being honoured alongside the likes of ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky and the late nba legend and civil rights icon bill russell. the robert f kennedy human rights foundation said they chose those they knew as exemplary leaders who have demonstrated an unwavering support for social change. specifically carry kennedy said harry and meghan stood up for their work on racialjustice and mental health through the arch well foundation and for moral courage in standing up to the oldest institution in the

uk. now, certainly that first glimpse of the netflix series has already caused a stir, quite literally every frame of that trailer was dissected with some pointing out while the british media's treatment of harry and meghan was highlighted, there was footage used from events where harry and meghan weren't present such as a harry potter premier in 2011 and it's fully expected when those first episodes are released in less than 36 hours that scrutiny will be even more intense. before we go, we have news from the palace of versailles in front where the famous apollo's chariot fountain was lifted off its base so it can be restored stopping it's the first time the statue has been moved since it was put there in 1671. restoring the sculpture will take about a year and a half, with plans for apollo's chariot to be the backdrop for the paris olympic games in 202a.

how exciting, but for now that brings us to the end of this hour of newsday, thanks so much forjoining the. to stay with bbc news for the latest global headlines. hello there. it's been cold enough alreadyjust recently, but i'm afraid to say it's going to get colder still over the coming few days. with some clear skies overnight, we're looking at widespread, quite sharp frosts. there is the threat of some icy conditions as well, particularly where we see some wintry showers. now, this colder air is coming our way because the wind is a northerly and that northerly wind sweeping down across the whole of the country now because it's a northerly northern scotland's really in the firing line. this is where we're going to see most of snow could be ten centimetres over the hills in the next few days. there is a risk of ice and snow elsewhere. but for many inland parts of england in particular, it's a very low chance of snow. it's going to be cold everywhere with a widespread frost, maybe not quite

so cold early on wednesday in east anglia in the south east, because we've got a bit more cloud here that'll take a while to break up. otherwise many places will be dry and see some sunshine. it's areas exposed to that northerly wind that will see some wintry showers. parts of northern ireland down, some of these irish sea coast down the north sea coast and more especially northern scotland. seeing that snow, those are the temperatures in the afternoon, 3 to five degrees, a little bit colder than it was on tuesday, windy in northern scotland and down those north sea coast. so it's these areas in particular that will feel quite a lot colder in that wind. and the snow continues as we head overnight and could get a bit heavier across northern scotland. we may see some mixture of rain, sleet and snow coming in to northern ireland as well. and that's coming into cold air, of course, another widespread frost with clear skies across many parts of the country. and we've got this cold air, this northerly air right the way across the country. now, the winds are not particularly strong. so where you have those clearer skies, that's why we're seeing such low temperatures at night. it could be icy for a while

across northern ireland may turn a bit icy across western parts of wales with some wetter weather beginning to move in here. still some showers grazing those north sea coasts, more snow to come across northern scotland, although the snow may ease off later in the day. if anything, it may well be a bit colder on thursday. typical temperatures only around two or three degrees. it doesn't get an awful lot better than that on friday either. another widespread, quite sharp frost. you can see we've got a few wintry showers, mainly around coastal areas. so in many, actually, the winds will be light. there'll be some sunshine around, but temperatures may be no better than around two to only five celsius. goodbye.
