welcome to bbc news. i'm monika plaha. our top stories: there have been mass arrests in brazil following sunday's violence on government buildings by supporters of the ousted president jair bolsonaro. in response to the attack, pro democracy rallies have taken place across the country — the biggest one in sao paolo. a uk space mission launched from a modified plane ends in failure after a technical issue stops a rocket reaching orbit. at a summit in mexico, joe biden discusses cross—border migration and economic co—operation. and in his latest tv interviews, prince harry claims camilla the queen consort used the media to promote herself at the expense

of family members. welcome to our viewers on pbs in america and around the globe. we start in brazil where there has been a swift and stern reaction to the invasion of the congress by supporters of the former president jair bolsonaro. more than 1,500 people have been arrested with suggestions they could be charged with terrorism. they've been taken in buses to police headquarters to be questioned. it seems the investigation into who was behind the invasion will be a priority for the new government of president lula. police have already been dismantling the main protest camp which was set up by supporters of mr bolsonaro. officers wearing riot uniforms were deployed and a spokesman said

the protestors were dispersed. the aftermath of the damage caused to the congress and other government buildings in brasilia is now becoming apparent. however, it seems that no—one was seriously injured. some supporters of president lula say it's because "the security forces were encouraged by politicians" more loyal to mr bolsonaro to stand back. as for president lula, he's been meeting with regional governors in brasilia. the group released a joint statement condeming what they said were "terrorist acts and criminal, coup—mongering vandalism". our correspondent nomia iqbal is in brasilia, she sent this update. so far more than 1,500 people have been detained and they were taken away on a0 buses, but it is thought that there are so many more that ran away following the riots and they have sent out an email address,

the government, asking citizens to give them any clues, there is also a social media page that has nearly a million followers where they have images of alleged rioters also asking the public for help. here outside of the presidential palace the clear up is pretty much over, people were working night and day to try and get it back to normal following those riots. of course there has been lots of comparisons with january the sixth and the images that we have seen and heard that are so hauntingly familiar to that attack two years ago. certainly, a lot of protesters here copied some of the tactics used that we saw with donald trump's supporters but the crucial difference here in that the peaceful transfer of power, it did happen in brazil because president lula da silva was inaugurated last week. that was very different to what protesters were doing in the us.

as you say lula da silva has demanded swift action and has called the rioters here fanatical fascists. while more than 1,000 supporters of the former brazilian presidentjair bolsonaro have been arrested, he remains in the us. here is a picture of him in florida with a companion, posted on social media a week ago before the riot at the congress in brasilia. he went to the us before the inauguration of his successor, president lula, and has been staying in this gated community. it's now been reported that he has been taken to this nearby hospital with abdominal pains. his condition is not thought to be serious. meanwhile, there have been large pro—democracy demonstrations across brazil in apparent reaction to the storming of the congress. this was the scene in sao paulo where tens of thousands of people took to the streets demanding punishment

for those responsible, mr bolsonaro. 0ur south america correspondent katy watson sent us this report from one of the demonstrations. this demonstration is just one of many that have been called in response to the events of sunday. people here are showing that they are not going to take what they saw in brasilia, the invasion of congress, the supreme federal court, and the presidential palace. people are calling for punishment of those responsible. they are waving placards saying without amnesty for the coup mongerers. i spoke to one person who said this is not about not agreeing, it is allowing people to have different opinions and respecting democracy and this is what this event is about. it's about moving forward and encouraging democracy in this deeply divided country. for more analysis on this, i'm joined now by maria herminia tavares who is professor of political science

at sao paulo university. thank you forjoining us on bbc news. what has been the reaction to these protests in brazil? . , , ., , brazil? there has been a very important _ brazil? there has been a very important reaction _ brazil? there has been a very important reaction to - brazil? there has been a very important reaction to the - important reaction to the vandalism acts last sunday. actually, there is opinion poll, that says that 90% of the brazilians condemn the acts, so i think there is a huge support for democracy, everybody is very appalled by the violent, that we saw in brasilia by television.—

district for 90 days, or three months, in order to do the investigation is necessary to punish the people that promoted that. the governor of brasilia is suspected of lenient �*s, at least. is suspected of lenient 's, at least. ., ., , , ., least. how does president lula act now in _ least. how does president lula act now in order _ least. how does president lula act now in order to _ least. how does president lula act now in order to unify - least. how does president lula act now in order to unify the i act now in order to unify the country and make sure something like this doesn't happen again? yes, i think so, like this doesn't happen again? yes, ithink so, i like this doesn't happen again? yes, i think so, i think the extreme right in brazil is strong, it is organised, has money, has support, from entrepreneurs, from minority groups in society, so it would be an easy test, he was elected

and what we have to do is what you've done, and i compliment you on it. we have to continue to support and build democratic institutions in the hemisphere. let's get the latest now on that summit from our correspondent in mexico city, will grant. as the summit of the so—called three amigos gets under way, the first order of business was to issue a joint statement on the events in brazil. presidentjoe biden, president andres manuel lopez 0brador and prime minister trudeau said they condemned the attacks on brazil's democracy and said they look forward to working with president lula. perhaps no surprise that they came out very early on with a statement on which they all agree because there will be so much at this summit in which they don't share a view, particularly on energy. recently both the united states and canada used the mechanisms of their shared free trade agreement to complain about mexico's protectionist

policies on its energy sector. they say that president lopez 0brador�*s decisions have been harming canadian and american firms. that needs ironing out. the other obvious area in which they don't necessarily see eye to eye is over immigration, such an important issue for president biden, domestically speaking, and recently he took a decision to allow 30,000 migrants from venezuela, cuba, nicaragua and haiti to come into the united states through legal channels. that was compensated, if you like, by a decision, an acceptance by president lopez 0brador to receive the same number of us deportees each month. it shows there are areas in which the two sides can work but there is still plenty that they are to discuss, particularly about mexico tightening its border with guatemala, something the biden administration is very, very keen to see mr lopez 0brador do.

the attempt to make history by launching satellites into orbit from uk soil has ended in failure after the rocket did not reach orbit. the mission had started according to plan, with the modified boeing jumbo jet taking off from the space port in cornwall in the south west of england on monday evening, local time. the next stage was to fly to 35,000 feet — that's around 10,500 metres over the atlantic ocean before releasing a rocket which would then blast into orbit. but it never made it. the reason is not yet clear. here is the moment the news that the mission had failed was announced. it appears launch one has suffered an anomaly we're looking at the information have

smoking cigarettes. there is not a street that is unaffected. huge parts of kobe were simply demolished as buildings crashed into one another. this woman said she had been given no help and no advice by the authorities. she stood outside the ruins of her business. tens of thousands of black children in south africa have taken advantage of laws passed by the country's new multiracial government and enrolled at formerly white schools. tonight sees the 9,610 performance of her long running play, the mousetrap, when they heard of her death today. the management considered whether to cancel tonight's performance, but agatha christie would have been the last person to want such a thing. welcome back to bbc news. after all the drama last week over the election of a new speaker to the us house of representatives, today was republican

kevin mccarthy's first day as speaker. this is the moment he took up his newjob, opening the session with the traditional prayer. he also came through his first test with the rules package, which will govern how the house operates in the next two years, being passed with just one republican dissenting. the democrats say mr mccarthy has undemined his authority by giving too many concessions to the right wing of his party. 0ur north america correspondent, david willis, is covering this for us and hejoins us now. thank you very much forjoining me. how has the new speaker's first day gone down and tell us more about the rules package? as you say, kevin mccarthy has passed the first test of his new role. he has got the rules package past the lower house in the last few hours, and that will govern the procedure of

the 118th congress. it includes such arcane matters as decorum on the house floor and so on, but there have been considerable concessions, as you just said, in order to get the speakership for mr mccarthy, and he has had to make concessions in regard to the rules package, those concessions include cuts in us defence spending, that could have implications for us aid for ukraine, also, some changes to matters such as the creation of a committee to look into the workings of the us justice department, particularly in regard to its investigations of the former president donald trump. and there are also measures that will make it more difficult for mr mccarthy to hold onto his position as a speaker, enablingjust hold onto his position as a speaker, enabling just one vote to get him thrown out of office. the big question, how much does all this undermined his authority going forward? i have to tell you that there are

some here in congress, monika, who believe that all that wrangling, the turbulence that we saw over the last week in terms of getting mr mccarthy over the line, the votes he needed for the speakership, could prove small bearing when it comes to hanging on to the speakership in the months and weeks ahead.— speakership in the months and weeks ahead. david, thank you very much _ weeks ahead. david, thank you very much for— weeks ahead. david, thank you very much for the _ weeks ahead. david, thank you very much for the update. - weeks ahead. david, thank you very much for the update. 0ur| very much for the update. 0ur north america correspondent, david willis. the last 2a hours have seen a whirlwind of prince harry appearing in high—profile interviews in the uk and in the us, in theory, to promote his new book. but some are seeing it as an opportunity for him to voice his concerns about the royal family. among the claims, a need for there to be some accountability for what happened to him. his brother and father, prince william and king charles, have yet to respond. we should warn you — this report from our royal correspondent, nicholas witchell, contains some flashing images.

it is in large sections a cry from the heart. it never needed to be this way, harry says. but there are barbs of family members and sustained criticism of the british press. so much can be traced to the death of his mother in the car crash in paris. harry was 12 at the time. he was at balmoral. in the audiobook of his memoir harry describes how his father broke the news. his harry describes how his father broke the news.— broke the news. his voice was soft. he broke the news. his voice was soft- he was _ broke the news. his voice was soft. he was in _ broke the news. his voice was soft. he was in shock, - broke the news. his voice was soft. he was in shock, it - soft. he was in shock, it seemed. 0h, hospital? yes, with a head injury. we thought again. injured. but she is ok. she has been taken to hospital. they will fix her head and we will go and see her today. tonight, at the latest. they tried, darling boy, i'm afraid she did not make it. the family decided that _ she did not make it. the family decided that harriet _ she did not make it. the family decided that harriet williams . decided that harriet williams should walk behind the coffin to their mother's funeral.

for having me. this is not so much a study, but actually this document or clinical practice guideline is a compilation of several decades of research that has been compiled in a comprehensive way, and delivered to offer evidence—based data to the primary care setting with regards to a number of key issues surrounding child obesity. the first is that, you know, we have to dispel a number of stigmas and biases that surround what is a legitimate disease entity and create equity in terms of the type of therapy that children are given, the access to multi modal and multidisciplinary medical approach that is available in countries like the

us and uk and elsewhere. really, this stands out as a key document. it's really the first comprehensive messaging that the american academy of paediatrics has put out in really over 15 years. and it really over 15 years. and it really provides a key prescriptive algorithm in terms of how to recognise and approach and treat children who are suffering from various forms of obesity, and obesity is a... , , , forms of obesity, and obesity isa... , , ,., is a... this focuses on the treatment _ is a... this focuses on the treatment of _ is a... this focuses on the treatment of obesity, - is a... this focuses on the treatment of obesity, but| is a... this focuses on the - treatment of obesity, but what about the prevention? does not that seemed the most obvious solution? it that seemed the most obvious solution? ., , ., , ., solution? it really does, and it is such _ solution? it really does, and it is such an _ solution? it really does, and it is such an important - solution? it really does, and | it is such an important topic, it's not typically addressed in this document and it will actually come up in the near future and a separate document and statement that specifically devoted to prevention. yes, you

are watching bbc news. hello. more wind and rain coming to just about all on tuesday. the dry days have been very hard to find for some of late. take 0diham in hampshire. this is where we saw the driest conditions during the summer. 46 days without rain in the last 21t — only two have been completely dry and only two in the last — 38 culdrose in cornwall. wet is relative to average so far this month, though has been bala in gwyneth, and i reckon by the end of tuesday we'll have seen an entire month's worth of rainfall in the first 10 days. and that's because here and across north west england is where we see the wettest weather on tuesday, the greatest impacts, risk of flooding up to 100 millimetres on the hills. all responsible is this weather system which has been working its way in from the west overnight. northern eastern areas are dry enough starts, even a bit of a chill

about with a touch of frost for one or two and some morning sunshine in northern scotland. but the morning rush hour in western england, wales and northern ireland will be thoroughly wet and increasingly windy. by the end of the rush hour of that rain into eastern england centres on the scotland snow in the hills, rain continues to push its way northwards. the rain does ease off, though. it does turn dry for a time across england and wales, a little bit brighter in one or two spots, some drizzle on the hills. there's another batch of rain coming in from the west later. as i said, it turns windy, 40, maybe 50—mile gusts possible. but coming in from a south south—westerly direction, a very mild day for this stage injanuary, 10—14 celsius for many especially, we get some brighter breaks briefly across the south. so here's that slice of milder weather. it's contained between the heavy rain in the morning and a batch of not quite as heavy rain spreading eastwards during the first part of tuesday night. into wednesday, that allows westerly winds back, strengthening but bringing in the blue colours here, an indication of cooler air. now, it will be a sunny start to wednesday across some central and eastern parts. one or two staying dry,

but plenty of showers already in the west, strengthening winds, touching gale force at times. and that will drive those showers, heavy with hail and thunder, eastwards as we go into the afternoon. temperatures down on tuesdays, still a degree or so higher than we normally expect for this stage injanuary. cool night will follow across the north where with lighter winds, a touch of frost. but in the south, the next weather system will bring outbreaks of rain. most persistent southern counties of england and wales, gale force winds here, bright enough start further northwards and eastwards, but showers get going and spread to many areas before the day is out and it will feel chilly in the north, especially in those strengthening winds once again. take care.

this is bbc news. the headlines: around 1500 people have been detained in brazil after sunday's violent attacks on government buildings by a far—right mob. pro—democracy rallies have taken place across the country in response. thousands have taken to the streets of the largest city, sao paulo, demanding punishment for those responsible. the first orbital space mission launched from western europe has ended in failure after its rocket was unable to reach low—earth orbit. launcher0ne was released from under the wing of a reconditioned jumbo jet that had taken off from south—west england. in his latest tv interviews, prince harry has made further claims about the royal family. they include criticisms of his stepmother camilla, the queen consort. so far, there has been no official response

from buckingham palace or kensington palace.
