the shooting happened as celebrations for lunar new year were under way in the city of monterey park, known for its large asian population. sophie long has more. that is the auestion sophie long has more. that is the question that _ sophie long has more. that is the question that everyone _ sophie long has more. that is the question that everyone is - sophie long has more. that is the question that everyone is asking l sophie long has more. that is the question that everyone is asking - question that everyone is asking — why did a 17—year—old man —— 72—year—old man going on rampage and shoot dead 11 people and injured many more? there have been very few details about that. there was a conference here a little earlier, and their chief of police was very honest about the fact that we may never know what caused him to do that. he said this investigation will be treated like any other and there are several search warrants that have been issued as detectives try to determine what caused him to do that. but as this stage, we really are no further along.

monterey park is about... as you say, they were in the middle of celebrating the eve of lunar you near —— new year. everyone we spoke into said they were very shocked about what happened here. it's a very quiet community and the attack took place at a dance hall where people in their 60s and 70s had gathered on a saturday evening for their regular dance class, but also for a new year's celebration. i think it's a community that's and shot, but people are celebrating a hero, 26—year—old grandson of the people who set up the second dance venue the gunmen went to, and he said he was there on a saturday night watching the dance floor when a man entered with a gun. he said he was terrified, but he actually acted on instinct and wrestled with the

man and managed to disarm him. 0fficers man and managed to disarm him. officers have said that he basically averted another tragedy unfolding there. that was socially long. —— sophie long. we are expecting a little later on the fact that the los angeles county sheriff will be holding a news briefing on that investigation. you can see the scene now. the podium is being prepared, the hallway where we will be expecting officials to walk through in terms of what might be happening and what they found out. we leave california for now and tell you that you can get the latest. to get the latest on this developing story, you can stay up to date on our livestream on bbc.com/news, or .co.uk if you join us from the uk. 0rsimply or simply download the bbc news app if you haven't already. to japan now, where prime minister fumio kishida has given a stark warning about the nation's declining population, saying it is putting the future

of the country at risk. japan is estimated to have had fewer than 800,000 births last year. in the 19705, that figure was more than 2 million. for more, we can now speak to sarah harper, who's professor of gerontology at the university of oxford. it's wonderful to get you on the programme. in the first instance, how surprising did you find this assessment? it was quite dramatic to have a prime minister say something like this. it have a prime minister say something like this. ., , have a prime minister say something like this. . , , ., , ., ., like this. it was, but it was not at all unexpected. _ like this. it was, but it was not at all unexpected. japan _ like this. it was, but it was not at all unexpected. japan is - like this. it was, but it was not at all unexpected. japan is known . like this. it was, but it was not at| all unexpected. japan is known for many decades of child—bearing rate going down, and in the mid—90s, it was already trying to put in plans to encourage women to have more children. it is by no means the lowest in the world. it's something like 0.6 in seoul. italy and spain are about one point to —— 1.2 and

greece is the same as japan. in a way, it was surprising that he decided to make such a dramatic announcement.— decided to make such a dramatic announcement. ~ ., ., , ., ~ ., announcement. what do you think of the factors behind _ announcement. what do you think of the factors behind it? _ announcement. what do you think of the factors behind it? this _ announcement. what do you think of the factors behind it? this is - the factors behind it? this is a problem that's gone on for some time, but talk about the background and the factors here. you time, but talk about the background and the factors here.— and the factors here. you talk about and the factors here. you talk about a problem. — and the factors here. you talk about a problem. but _ and the factors here. you talk about a problem, but it's— and the factors here. you talk about a problem, but it's a _ and the factors here. you talk about a problem, but it's a natural- a problem, but it's a natural development. as you educate women, they choose to have one or two children. many women are choosing to be child free, and as a consequence, it's inevitable that across the 21st century, and child—bearing will be full and populations are going to decline and age. there are lots of things you can put in place. they can have a huge impact on concern on the economy. 0ld

there's a renewed warning that the uk is becoming too dependent on chinese technology in everyday items. many connected gadgets — like smart speakers, thermostats and security systems — include sensors made by chinese firms. now, a former british diplomat says the sensors could be used to spy on users — or sabotage them. in his report, former uk diplomat charles parton makes reference to reports of a recent discovery of a device in cars used by senior government ministers. chinese technology firms have consistently denied allegations of spying. joining me now is the author of that report out today, charles parton. great to get you on the programme. thank you so much forjoining us. could you talk us through the evidence that you have found in the report? evidence that you have found in the re ort? , ., ., , , report? first of all, these things are a piece _ report? first of all, these things are a piece of— report? first of all, these things are a piece of equipment, - report? first of all, these things

that, more will go in.— that, more will go in. charles parton, really _ that, more will go in. charles parton, really appreciate - that, more will go in. charles - parton, really appreciate speaking to you on newsday. we can continue talking about issues to do with china because that's where we've seen what has been called the largest annual human rights commission —— human migration. it's expected to boost the economy, but it's also raising concerns over possible covid surges, especially in the countryside. china's center for disease control and prevention estimates that 80% of the country's population has already been infected, and says the possibility of a big covid rebound is remote. but new modelling out of australia suggests the virus is unlikely to go away in 2023, and new variants can still emerge. let's talk now to drjoshua szanyi, a public health registrar at the university of melbourne, and lead author of the report.

thank you so much forjoining us on newsday. perhaps you can start by telling us more about the main findings of your study, particularly the idea that we could see more variants in 2023. £th the idea that we could see more variants in 2023.— the idea that we could see more variants in 2023. of course, thank ou for variants in 2023. of course, thank you for having _ variants in 2023. of course, thank you for having me _ variants in 2023. of course, thank you for having me on. _ variants in 2023. of course, thank you for having me on. so, - variants in 2023. of course, thank you for having me on. so, this - variants in 2023. of course, thank| you for having me on. so, this has its basis in the idea that we're not sure what 2023 might hold for us, so we thought it would be important to develop a framework to think about the cost and benefits of various policy decisions. as you mentioned, likely a virus that continues to evolve, and terms of finding what we found across the range of scenarios, we looked at generally having a lower threshold to introduce public health and social measures is probably the best thing to do. it reinforced the value of vaccination, particularly with good uptake in the population, which we already know. but it adds weight to that. waiting

until there are large surges of infection to increase masked wiring or improve it might be leaving things a little bit too late. introducing those boosts is probably the best way forward.— the best way forward. joshua, a lot of us i the best way forward. joshua, a lot of us i think _ the best way forward. joshua, a lot of us i think it's _ the best way forward. joshua, a lot of us i think it's fair _ the best way forward. joshua, a lot of us i think it's fair to _ the best way forward. joshua, a lot of us i think it's fair to say - the best way forward. joshua, a lot of us i think it's fair to say hoped i of us i think it's fair to say hoped that the pandemic and issues to do with covid could very much be something we can put behind us. so many people in the world are increasingly being vaccinated. with the opening up of china, what her concerns you see there and how worried should we be about the possibility of new variants? i think what we've _ possibility of new variants? i think what we've seen _ possibility of new variants? i think what we've seen over _ possibility of new variants? i think what we've seen over the - possibility of new variants? i think what we've seen over the course l possibility of new variants? i think| what we've seen over the course of the pandemic is that this will continue to evolve. i think we all hope things continued in the direction they've been going in. we've been lucky in some ways that recent variants are not as dangerous as a variants like delta, but

there's no guarantee that the virus won't evolve to gain the ability to cause quite severe disease again. i think this work that we've been doing isjust think this work that we've been doing is just ensuring we're prepared for that possibility. just briefl , prepared for that possibility. just briefly. give _ prepared for that possibility. just briefly, give us a sense of the trade—offs that you've talked about on your modelling. brute trade-offs that you've talked about on your modelling.— on your modelling. we mean by trade-offs. _ on your modelling. we mean by trade-offs, the _ on your modelling. we mean by trade-offs, the cost _ on your modelling. we mean by trade-offs, the cost and - on your modelling. we mean by trade-offs, the cost and the - trade—offs, the cost and the benefits. vaccines cost money, restrictions on people's movement has the effect on the economy. but there are also other trade—offs. if you look at scenarios and modelling where it is very infectious, and might be best to be a little bit more strict in terms of restrictions. of course, if we decide that we're not prepared to do that, but the trade—off as well. doctorjoshua, fantastic to get you

on the programme with your thoughts. and before we go, i want to tell you about a toddler who hasjust become britain's youngest member of mensa, the world—renowned society for those with high 105. teddy hobbs, who became a member at the age of 3, can count from one to 100 in seven different languages. he's been speaking to our correspondent danjohnson. un, deux... his mum beth says it's come as a surprise to everyone. congratulations on the whole family. i want to take you back to the scene of that press conference that we showed you a little earlier on in california. these are like pictures that you are seeing of official talking about what they found in their investigations looking into their investigations looking into the fact that 11 people have now been killed as a result of that tragic incident. it is one of the deadliest mass shootings in california's recent history. the 72—year—old's motive is unclear, but

police say they are looking at items found in his van. we have lots more on the bbc website on that story and across bbc news. stay tuned. hello. the weather's relatively quiet across the uk right now with a large area of high pressure extending all the way from russia through the baltic reaching our shores. but the temperature contrast is huge across the country, a bit like last night. on the one hand, we have mild south—westerlies affecting northern ireland and scotland. on the other, colder continental air affecting the south of the country, and on top of that, with frosty conditions in the south of the uk, freezing fog as well — anywhere from the welsh marshes

towards east anglia. so, let's have a look at the temperatures early in the morning. this is where the frost will be. a bit of an onshore wind here in the extreme south east, as —8 celsius, a lot milder in western scotland. and also here we're closer to weather fronts, maybe some spits and spots of rain for the western isles, but through the day, perhaps some sunshine around the murray firth, eastern scotland, also the borders, the northeast of england, too. but i think the best of the brightness will be around 6—3 celsius, 11 degrees expected in stornoway on tuesday. now wednesday's weather forecast, and we're expecting a cold front to sweep across the country. so, bits and pieces of rain certainly on the cards, but high pressures also close by, so i don't think there's going to be much rainfall with this weather front here and it will be brief. now, the winds are coming in from the north, but this is actually air that originated out in the north atlantic rather than the arctic. so, not desperately cold at all. 10 degrees for glasgow in belfast and much milder

in the south as well. and that pattern continues into thursday — high pressure close by, the winds seemingly northerly, but again originating from here rather than the very far north. so, again, not that cold and i think a decent amount of bright, if not sunny weather for many of us on thursday bar the odd shower coming off the north sea, maybe affecting eastern areas. so, the highs about 8 in glasgow and we'll match that in london, not far off the seasonal norm. ok, let's have a look at the forecast then for the rest of the week and into the weekend, and you can see pretty stable weather. it should get quite breezy as we head towards the end of the week, but that also means that we'll see milder conditions spreading in off the atlantic as we head into the weekend. bye— bye.

good evening. i'm tulsen tollet, and this is your sports news where we start with football and sixth tier darvel who've knocked seven time winners aberdeen out of the scottish cup to reach the last 16 for the first time. jordan kirkpatrick managed to manouvre the ball past defenders with less than 20 minutes played which turned out to be the winner and his side will now take on third tier falkirk, also at home, as they look for a place in the quarterfinals. in a stadium that holds just over 2000 spectators those lucky enough to attend were treated to a night they won't forget. i said before the game

it was important. we started well and imposed ourselves and i thought we and i thought we deserved did that in the early stages
