welcome to bbc news. i'm monika plaha. our top stories: police video footage of the arrest that led to the death of tyre nichols has been released. i've never seen the video but what i've heard is very horrific — very horrific. nojustice! no justice! no nojustice! no peace! we said no “ustice! no peace! we said no nojustice! no peace! we said no justice! — president biden said he was out raged by what he'd seen. israeli police saili seven people have been killed a mass shooting in eastjerusalem at a synagogue. state of emergency in new zealand after two people killed in severe in auckland.

and he is only 16 but already the best flat jockey and he is only 16 but already the best flatjockey in britain. we make the teenager who was the talk of the racing world. but before we meet. police video showing five officers in memphis, tennessee viciously beating a black motorist has been released. tyre nichols died three days later and the officers — his family say the video shows him being kicked like a football. the bbc is reviewing the footage — some of it is very graphic and too

distressing for broadcast. this is what we will show you the first few seconds of the initial dash cam footage. we won't show any more than this clip at this time as we still continue to review it. what is at stake is, first of all, the lives all of innocent people, number one. number two it has a lot to say about america, a lot to do with whether or not we are the country we say we are, a country of law and order and means by which we can peacefully protest and let the courts make the judgement. some people have taken to the streets tonight in the us. this was the scene in the capital washington, dc a short time a go as crowds march demanding justice for tyree. there are protests in memfis too the city where tyre was killed, our correspondent barbara plett usher is there.

i am standing at the intersection because i was walking with a number of protesters going down the street and stopping traffic. they have not seen the video because they started out before it was released but they clearly felt this case was part of a larger struggle against police brutality especially against black people. they were carrying signs demanding an end to police terror. the video is difficult to watch, as predicted. you see the officers being very aggressive with tyre nichols they are using expletives as they tell him to show his hands. they fire what appears to be a taser towards him. they pull out a baton and beat him with it. he is also calling out for them to stop, and calling out for his mother a number of times, at one point a piercing shriek. the camera turns towards him

and you see his face is bloodied and he in great distress. there is a lot of footage, about an hour of footage from a number of different cameras. it is quite distressing and i believe you have been speaking to the mother who has said that no mother should experience what she is going through. what more did the mother of tyre nichols say and what is the family response? i asked her why she had not watched the video. she said several times she could not bring herself to watch it. she said she knows what happens to her son. his neck was broken, she saw him in the hospital, his face was swollen, she did not need to see the video to know that he was dead although she urged parents to not let their children see the video. i asked about her response to the fact that the five officers who killed her son were also black and she said it is not about the colour whether they are black, purple, white or whatever, it is the fact that you have

police behaving badly. this is about police conduct not about race if it is about the race, it is about the race of the victim not the race of the police officer carrying out the excessive use of force. she also told me that president biden called her and gave her his condolences and said he would do whatever he could to try to make a change in issues like this. well, earlier, ispoke to greg donaldson, who's associate professor atjohnjay college of criminal justice. i asked him what his reaction was to the video footage. i watched the video and it was appalling. it was incomprehensible from beginning to end, from the car stop, the state of agitation of the police

when they pulled the car over, to the pursuit, to the lack of training and lack of strategy in containing and subduing the person they had stopped and then the anger that they received as their incompetence was more revealed. even the fact that during the foot pursuit they were all completely out of breath and poorly trained from a to z, and it was awful to watch. it really was. you would have thought by now that lessons should have been learned. does there need to be a massive overhaul now in police culture and how they work with the community? i think if we take it back, this needs to be looked at on a number of levels. one level in terms of police reaction to spikes in crime. what they did was they create these units, this is the scorpion unit. in new york they have the street crime unit, miami and la have the same thing. these units are designed

to strike back at criminals to act almost as an out of the box unit to intimidate and take back the streets. invariably those units need to be supervised, they are encouraged to act aggressively and they end in tragedy more often than not. we saw that here, this was a unit, think of the name, the scorpion unit, it is not a unit designed to help the community, it is a unit designed to be dangerous and that is exactly what it is. those kinds of units, one aspect that puts those kind of units should be avoided at all costs because we have seen historically how they can turn into tragedy and that is what we saw today. and how do you think trust can now be restored within the police? there is that massive issue of police brutality and it is always black people more likely to be the victims in all this.

it is interesting when you saw that they were black officers the this time so we could not directly attributed to racial bias but there is race involved in this because the offices are much less likely to be concerned about consequences when violating the rights of a young black man as opposed to a middle—class white man. so there is race involved there. to answer your question about restoring trust, i think there has to be a coming together of the police unions who have fought many of these reforms of police training facilities. these officers were so poorly trained i was appalled. they need to be trained in the academies and then there needs to be retraining, periodic retraining and one of the aspects of that retraining is that we often see

police brutality following a chase or a pursuit because adrenaline is up. the officers are angry and annoyed and irritated at having to run and fight and grapple. understandably. but they should be trained to quell those instincts, trained to work together and to monitor each other as those things go on. and this incidentjust ran out of control and possibly the worst part of it all was the lack of humanity after the incident. those people stood stood around as if it was just an afternoon on the street when there was a person in grave physical danger lying on the ground next to them like a piece of garbage. you mentioned the officers being poorly trained and is power being abused here from the people whose job it is to protect? correct. but i think the public is to blame in some ways as well because the public

calls out for these units when there are spikes in crime. the public will call out for more aggressive techniques, the public will be against police reform, the public will see these units as a line of defence against a rising tide of violence in that view by the public, rather than looking at ways to improve the conditions in the neighbourhood, ways to limit the proliferation of guns, ways to train police officers it is always let's go to this simple fix of hiring tough guys to stop bad guys and that does not work. let's get some of the day's other news. a usjudge has given a 6.5 yearjail term to a man who carried out a pepper spray attack on a police officer during the storming of congress by donald trump supporters in january 2021. julian khater had pleaded guilty to spraying officer brian sicknick who died

azadeh moshiri, bbc news. a british teenager has been sentenced to 11.5 years in prison after producing terrorism videos. the teenager from de bisha posted racist and homophobic content online. daniel sandford reports. —— derbyshire. a british teenager has been sentenced to 11.5 years in prison for producing far—right extremist videos that influenced two mass killings in the us. daniel harris, who's 19 and from derbyshire, posted racist and homophobic content online. our home affairs correspondent daniel sandford reports. in the rural setting of the derbyshire market town of glossop, a teenage boy was producing what the judge called today "a stream of right—wing terrorist bile". the judge said daniel harris was highly dangerous as he sentenced him to 11.5 years in a young offenders institution. harris had been out of school since the age of seven and, from his grandparents' home, he produced a video describing brenton tarrant, who murdered 51 people in two mosques

in new zealand, as an "australian saint". when a racist attack on the tops supermarket in buffalo in new york state last may left ten people dead, it emerged that the 18—year—old killer payton gendron had been watching and sharing videos produced by harris in derbyshire. the judge said today that harris had been encouraging people to commit mass murder. we have watched through this video, but we won't show it. in it, daniel harris has edited together people firing home—made 3d—printed weapons. he describes non—white people as "invaders" and says protest is pointless. instead, he calls for acts of terror and endless unadulterated, ceaseless violence. harris even tried to produce his own 3d—printed semi—automatic gun. he failed, but detectives have no doubt about the damage his videos did. his provocative and inflammatory films were potentially radicalising other people. i hope this story and the lengthy sentence acts as a deterrent to anyone else considering treading a similar path. the chief suspect in the killings at an lgbt

forjoining me. you are watching bbc news. hello. the weekend is getting off to a relatively tranquil, sedate start in most places. it won't stay that way for all of us. something livelier heading to the north of the uk by sunday but for saturday, largely dry with some sunshine, some quite large areas of cloud around as well. in fact, we've got this stripe of cloud pushing its way southwards out of northern ireland and southern scotland, down across northern england, into the north midlands and parts of wales through the afternoon. and with that, there mayjust be the odd spot of drizzle. to the south of that, some early fog giving way to limited sunny spells, some quite large areas of cloud. best of the sunshine for northern ireland and for scotland, albeit with some showers in the west of scotland and temperatures of seven or eight degrees. now, during saturday night, we will see this area of cloud sinking further south across wales, central and southern parts of england, again with the odd spot of drizzle. further north, there'll

be some patchy clouds, some clear spells, most places probably avoiding a frost. we mayjust see a touch of frost in one or two locations. into sunday, high pressure keeps things relatively calm in the south but this frontal system is going to change things in the north of the uk. a lot of low clouds and mistiness around southern parts to start sunday morning, then we'll see some spells of sunshine. but from northern england northwards through the afternoon, it is going to turn really very windy, particularly gusty conditions to the eastern side of the pennines, around the coasts of northern ireland and in some exposed parts of the north of scotland, we will see gusts of 65 mph or more with this band of rain pushing its way southwards. but just ahead of that rain band, it's going to be very mild indeed — 12 degrees for a time there in aberdeen and a mild day generally for most of us. now, into monday, we will have a brisk north or north—westerly wind blowing into these north—eastern parts of the country, so feeling a little bit chilly here. but behind that, we see a ridge of high pressure building, some dry weather, some spells of sunshine, temperatures between 7—10 degrees. but let me show you what might happen with our weather

as we move out of monday into tuesday because this deep area of low pressure is expected to move close to the north of scotland. and depending onjust how deep this low ends up being, well, we could see some very strong winds indeed. so, it could be that through the first half of next week, things turn livelier still in the north of the uk, staying calmer further south.

this is bbc news — the headlines: the us city of memphis has released graphic video footage of police officers beating the black motorist tyre nichols, who died three days after his arrest. it shows him being repeatedly kicked, punched and pepper sprayed while lying on the ground. a palestinian gunman has killed at least seven people outside a synagogue in occupied eastjerusalem where israeli worshippers had gathered for prayers. the attacker was killed by israeli police. prime minister benyamin netanyahu has urged israelis not to take the law into their own hands. in new zealand, two people have died as flooding has caused widespread damage in the city of auckland. meteorologists say around an entire summer's worth
