this is bbc news. i'm sally bundock with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. california police arrest a suspected gunman, after another mass shooting at two locations in the coastal city of half moon bay. he was taken into custody without incident and a semiautomatic handgun was located in his vehicle. turkey's president says sweden should not expect him to support its nato membership bid, just days after a copy of the koran was burned during a protest in stockholm. as the european union agrees on more financial aid for ukraine, pressure grows on germany to send military tanks to help fight off the russian invasion.

why this $24 million performance in dubai has landed beyonce in hot water with some fans. onze, douze, treize. .. we meet the four year—old, who's become the uk's youngest member of mensa, and can count to a hundred in seven languages. two days after 11 people were shot dead by a gunman near los angeles, there's been a new deadly gun attack in california. seven people have been killed at two farms near half moon bay south of san francisco. pictures show the suspect being pinned to the ground and taken into custody

without further incident after he was found in his car. he's been identified as zhao chunli, a 67—year—old man who worked at one of the locations where the shootings took place. his victims are thought to be chinese—american farm workers. the state governor, gavin newsom, called it tragedy upon tragedy. our north america correspondent david willis sent this report. this is an area known as half moon bay, it's about 30 miles to the south of san francisco, largely agricultural area, a population of around 11,000 people. seven people are said to have died in this incident at two separate locations, one of which is thought to be a mushroom farm. this is a very rural area as i mentioned there, two people were injured in the first location and the officers found four

people dead and a fifth person wounded at the other location about two miles away. it has been reported that all of the victims were chinese farmworkers and a 67—year—old asian—american man has turned himself in to the police, about two hours after the incident took place at these two separate, very rural locations. there is footage of that man being pinned to the ground and taken into custody by sheriff's deputies. now, a short while ago as that press conference got under way, the police officer in charge of the investigation said that there was no clear motive for this attack although it does appear that the gunman worked out one of the two agricultural facilities that were targeted in this attack.

400 miles south of that incident, just a couple of days ago we had that terrible incident, a massacre involving a ballroom dance venue in monteray park which is a predominantly asian—american community to the east of los angeles. it was revealed today that an 11th person had died after being shot in that incident and of course one man is known to have overpowered the gunman at a second location which could have resulted in a considerable additional loss of life had that intervention not occurred. the police at a press conference here in los angeles said that they recovered 42 bullets that were fired from that, in that attack and that the perpetrator, a man called huu can tran had access to a handgun, a rifle and hundreds of rounds of ammunition. these two incidents both involving coincidentally

perhaps elderly asian gunmen taking place in california, a state with some of the toughest gun—control laws in this country and just of course last year president biden succeeded in forcing through the first gun—control laws this country has seen in nearly 30 years but he himself said they weren't enough. they included for example red flag laws, tighter background checks, but were not enough in his view and so it seems. this, the second attack of its kind within the space of less than 48 hours. the turkish president recep tayyip erdogan has said sweden shouldn't expect his support in its bid tojoin nato. mr erdogan was speaking after a swedish far right politician publicly burned a copy of the koran outside turkey's embassy in the swedish capital.

this prompted anti—sweden protests in turkey, and in other muslim countries. sweden, along with finland applied for nato membership after russia invaded ukraine, but they need the approval of all 30 nato states before that can be granted. i'm joined now by my colleague from bbc�*s turkish service, emre temel. why is turkey refusing to admit sweden into nato in the first place? what are its demands? turkey accuses sweden and finland of harbouring kurdish people viewed as terrorist organisations. last week the turkish president said that these two nordic countries should deport or extradite up to 130 people who he referred to 130 people who he referred to as terrorists. the swedish government says it cannot

fulfil all of those demands. previously sweden and finland lifted arms export restrictions for turkey and sweden also amended the constitution to toughen domestic antiterrorism laws. but tensions between turkey and sweden have arisen in the last two weeks as a result of two events. on january 11 turkish protesters burnt an effigy of erdogan and again on saturday a copy of the courant was burnt by a far right pop —— politician. the turkish ambassador called off a visit by the swede�*s on thursday and now they say they should not expect support from ankara. 50 should not expect support from ankara. ,, ., should not expect support from ankara. . . ., , ankara. so there are elections in turkey _ ankara. so there are elections in turkey on — ankara. so there are elections in turkey on may _ ankara. so there are elections in turkey on may 14. - ankara. so there are elections in turkey on may 14. could - ankara. so there are elections| in turkey on may 14. could this be related to the election? resident erdogan has announced may 14 as the date for presidential and parliamentary elections. he can dissolve

parliament on march ten and that can be a key date because turkish parliament should approve sweden and finland's membership before the countries canjoin the alliance. membership before the countries can join the alliance. early opinion polls show that the president erdogan �*s party is still the strongest party in turkey but he could lose the parliamentary majority and the presidential vote will be his toughest election testing more than two decades and mr erdogan can view this event with sweden as an opportunity to govern by blocking sweden's membership for a few months, at least until the turkish elections. we should watch closely. thank you. 0pposition parties in the uk have called for the conservative party chair, nadhim zahawi, to be sacked now — rather than wait for the outcome of an investigation. the government's independent ethics advisor has been asked to look into mr zahawi's financial affairs

city of half moon bay. turkey's president says sweden should not expect him to support its nato membership bid, just days after a copy of the koran was burned during a protest in stockholm. the president of serbia, aleksandar vucic, says he's been told by the european union and the us to normalise relations with kosovo or risk losing foreign investment and progress towards eu membership. 0ur balkans correspondent, guy delauney, has more details. we have heard some powerful words from serbia's president aleksandar vucic during his address to the serbian people. he says it had been made clear to him by the envoys of the european union and the united states that serbia would face something approaching complete isolation if it did not sign a proposed deal on the long—term normalisation of relations between serbia and kosovo. in fact, mr vucic said

the stakes were as follows — the interruption of the european integration process, the withdrawal of investments and comprehensive measures in the political and economic sense which would harm serbia. so, in order to avoid all this, mr vucic says that serbia has to consider signing up to this proposal that's been put forward by the european union. we do not know exactly what is in it, but we do understand that it would stop short of serbia having to recognise kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence. what mr vucic does say, however, is it would mean serbia not standing in the way of kosovo joining international organisations such as the united nations. this is going to be a fairly hard sell in serbia. mr vucic is going to start the process at least of telling people about this in the coming days, when he will be meeting political party leaders, but he has been at pains to emphasise that nothing has been signed yet, nothing has even been initialled as yet

and nothing will be, he says, until the people of serbia agree on it. guy delauney there. a court in washington has convicted four members of a far—right militia group of seditious conspiracy, for their part in the capitol riots in january 2021. the four men, all belonging to the 0ath keepers group, were also found guilty of other felony and obstruction charges. all four defendants were found guilty of seditious conspiracy as well as conspiracy to obstruct the certification of the electoral college vote and prevent members of congress from discharging their duties. i'm grateful to the prosecutors, agents and staff for their outstanding work in connection with this matter. let's talk about beyonce — she has been under attack by some fans after a rumoured $24 million appearance at an event in dubai,

a territory known for its hard line on homosexuality, as well as chequered history when it comes to rights for women and the treatment of migrant workers. to fill us in on why she has been criticised, stephanie prentice, our reporter, joins me now. why are fans so annoyed? .it is . it is worth noting that for beyonce — . it is worth noting that for beyonce fans _ . it is worth noting that for beyonce fans this - . it is worth noting that for beyonce fans this is - . it is worth noting that for beyonce fans this is a - . it is worth noting that for beyonce fans this is a big i beyonce fans this is a big deal, it is beyonce back on the stage, it is able to come back, she has not been on the stage for around four years and this was her doing had guest hits, celebrities were invited, fireworks and drones— but what fans cannot get past is that it took place in dubai, where people from lgbtq plus communities are subjugated, women have had problems in the past, and they are demographics that traditionally support beyonce, and she identifies very family as an ally to those communities. what they are saying is this is untrue and,

you can reach me on twitter — i'm @sallybundockbbc. iam about i am about to login right now so if you are there, talk to me, i will see you soon. 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. 0n the one hand, we have mild south—westerlies affecting northern ireland and scotland. 0n the other, colder continental air affecting the southeast 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 marches 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 southeast, so perhaps not quite so cold, but in 0xfordshire could be as low 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 about here, but also colder conditions — 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 pressure's 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's originated out in the north atlantic, rather than the arctic, so not desperately cold at all. ten degrees for glasgow and belfast and much milder in the south as well. and that pattern continues into thursday — high pressure close by, the wind 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.
