11:14 pm
see you then. again, people can - judge me by my actions. in the past, when there has been issues like this, i made sure - they were investigated properly. opposition parties claimed the prime minister deciding not to decide yet proves he is weak. if he is a bully, he should go, and the prime minister really should be able to read the report, make up his mind and get on with it. stop dithering and delaying, summon up your courage and sack your deputy if he is a bully, because this is
11:15 pm
not what the people elected him for. tonight this man, a former independent adviser to government on ministers' interests, told us why he thought there was a delay. in some ways you can understand if it is a huge report, the prime minister may want time to consider it. as far as i can see, it probably can't be completely clear cut otherwise he would have come out with a decision one way or another this afternoon. the deputy prime minister's future hangs in the balance tonight, as the prime minister works out what to do. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. gearing up for one last training session for this weekend's london marathon. for adam lever, this marks a huge
11:16 pm
milestone in his life. a marathon is something i always wanted to do pre—cancer, diagnosis, and then after cancer diagnosis, i thought it was no longer possible with the operation i had. so it's doing something that i've always dreamed of doing. in january this year, i got the news that i got ten years cancer free, which is amazing and definitely something to celebrate. and yeah, i wanted it to be a challenge. so i have set the ambitious challenge of raising £10,000 for the bone cancer research trust. what makes this a greater feat of endurance is adam's doing all 26.2 miles on crutches. adam has exceeded his £10,000 fundraising target and not one to do things by halves. he's now focused on completing the marathon in under six hours, which will be a new world record. you're live with bbc news. the us treasury secretary janet yellen has said that the us
11:17 pm
and china should seek a "constructive and fair economic relationship". tensions between the two super powers over taiwan, technoogy and espionage amongst other things remain high but yellen said that both could benefit from "healthy economic competition." we seek a healthy economic relationship with china. one that fosters growth and innovation in both countries. a growing china that plays by international rules is good for the united states and the world. both countries can benefit from healthy competition in the economic sphere. but healthy economic competition where both sides benefit is only sustainable if this competition is fair. let's turn to the warrior created for head of dado has said that ukraine's future lies in for the he
11:18 pm
said nato stood with ukraine today, tomorrow and for as long as it takes without the bbc�*s james waterhouse has more. this was a symbolic meeting. the first time since a full—scale invasion, you have the head of nato, the alliance which binds all of ukraine's western our lives together in keefe meeting zelensky for that what ukraine's leader woke from this meeting? he called for a clear timeline for ukraine to be officially invited bite nato, something dearly wants. yet stoltenberg would not be drawn on that. he said they'd be high up on that. he said they'd be high up on the agenda in an upcoming nato summit injuly in which mr zelensky is inviting to put up but stoltenberg was keen to point out the billions of euros which have been supplied to this point. but within western allies themselves
11:19 pm
there is some division over whether ukraine should be allowed or at least on any specific time line on whether ukraine should be invited to join before the full—scale and barely do like invasion it was worried it would provoke russia into a full—scale invasion. we now had the invasion in finland has subsequentlyjoined the alliance in sweden is set to follow suit. soderbergh said ukraine's place would be within nato but we didn't get any idea on wed. we saw similar comments when the sharm el—sheikh out from the european union was here, full of sentiment but still lacking on specifics. the most powerful space rocket ever built — the spacex starship — has blown up shortly after launch in texas. it was the second attempted launch this week after the first was called off on monday because of techincal problems. spacex hopes that the rocket will eventually lead to an era of interplanetary travel, as our science editor rebecca morelle reports.
11:20 pm
a tense wait in the final seconds... ignition. two, one... ..as the biggest and most powerful rocket ever built gets ready to fly. we have lift—off. starship slowly pushed up into the sky. so far, so good. a few minutes into the flight, it was time for the bottom part of the rocket to separate. but starship started tumbling, and then this happened... applause. starship just experienced a rapid, unscheduled disassembly. now, this was a development test. this is the first test flight of starship. and the goal was to gather the data, and as we said, clear the pad and get ready to go again. despite the explosion, they were still celebrating at spacex hq.
11:21 pm
elon musk, the company's ceo, set expectations low. just getting the rocket off the ground was a major milestone. he tweeted. .. the plan is to land people on the moon in a joint mission with nasser and then go to mars. it is radically different from other rockets. this is the starship launch system. it stands 120 metres tall, that's nearly 400 feet. it has to main parts. at the bottom is the superheavy booster which has a huge number of engines, 33 of them. above this is a spacecraft. this can carry cargo or crew. spacex says up to 100 people. both components will be fully reusable. explosions at spacex are not unusual. they say it is all part
11:22 pm
of the learning process. there's been a lot of develop and flight, design and five, that's been costly in terms of hardware failures, space x has said it's been extremely valuable in terms of what it has learned.— it has learned. there are concerns about starships _ it has learned. there are concerns about starships environmental- it has learned. there are concerns - about starships environmental impact on the ecosystem for that us authorities say it's past all the objects. it's not yet clear exactly what went wrong in space x won't say how much it cost but would certainly as they will try again. and they have the rockets lined up, ready to fly. rebecca morelle, bbc news. yemen during a charity event in during ramadan and the people in charge of that operation has been detained. a warning about you may

find scenes distressing. desperate efforts here to save people pulling from the cross. there were calls for people to get back but there is nowhere to go. images from the school show the horror of last nights event, whichever written on the faces of those trying to escape. hundreds of them partnership, included children that gathered to receive cash donations, often distributed in the holy month of ramadan. the crash had been caused by a rush to get into the school yard on a narrow street. so many lives lost the chance to receive about £8, in a country with the un says two thirds of the population need you aid. the authorities say they become an investigation and arrested those who'd organised the distribution without coordinating with them. dozens of people were also wounded, some in critical

a p pa re ntly apparently they get showed up but had no clue who took the reservation. that is it for the program. thank you so much for watching. hello there. our weather story for friday is a tale of two halves, the best of the weather once again through scotland and northern ireland, closest to this area of high pressure. these weather fronts will introduce some cloud and rain at times, be a bit of a nuisance, and that nagging easterly wind still making it feel rather raw on exposed east coasts. so first thing in the morning, the rain quite heavy across norfolk, lincolnshire, into the east midlands, gradually drifting towards wales. there'll also be some showery outbreaks of rain across essex and kent. but north of that, not a bad start. it will be a chilly start. a touch of frost not out of the question across the grampian, but at least in scotland and northern ireland, you will have some sunshine and it will continue like that for much of the day. that easterly breeze, though, always making it feel cooler on exposed east coasts.
11:27 pm
sheltered western areas seeing the best of the sunshine and warmth. and as we go through the afternoon, we'll see a line of more persistent rain stretching across the south coast. sunny spells and scattered showers driven in by that strong easterly breeze coming in off the north sea. so 10—12 degrees once again on exposed east coasts. further west, we could see 16 or 17 degrees. favoured spots once again, northern ireland and western scotland. here, the pollen will be high — it's tree pollen at this time of year. medium, perhaps, across much of central and eastern england. now, as we move into the early hours of saturday, we are likely to see this weather front producing some showery outbreaks of rain through scotland and northern ireland, and at the same time, we've got some showery outbreaks of rain into the south—west. sandwiched in between the two, drier and brighter, and once again, much of scotland will see some sunshine. but the temperatures really subdued by then, 11—14 degrees. and as we move out of sunday
11:28 pm
into monday, we'll start to see this colder northerly flow take over and you really will start to notice the difference right across the country. so on sunday, we'll see some showery outbreaks of rain just drifting away from the east. drier behind it, but that northerly wind will make it feel quite chilly at times. so temperatures really falling away in scotland, 7—11 degrees by then. 14 degrees the maximum on sunday. and that's going to be the trend as we move into the week ahead. it will turn wetter and then much colder. it is like the 12th round in a heavyweight clash of the titan,
