owe i’ over the two for getting in touch over the two hours. thank you for watching and listening. this is bbc news. outbreaks of violence threaten sudan's 72 hour ceasefire — as governments continue trying to repatriate their citizens. as more people arrive here in cyprus to safety, the uk foreign secretary says now is the time to move the british government unveils tougher rules on gambling companies — to tackle smart—phone problem—betting. and the spanish government issues emergency heat stroke warnings — as forecasters predict the hottest

ever april day. hello, a very warm welcome. i'm samantha simmonds. efforts are being stepped up in sudan to try and extend a fragile ceasefire between troops loyal to rival generals. the outbreak of violence in the country has left more than 500 people dead and forced thousands to flee. the current truce brokered by the us is due to expire later on thursday. both the un and south sudan are rapidly trying to organise a three—day extension to it. the sudanese army says it's approved the idea of discussing the proposal but its rival, the rapid support forces, has not yet responded. here's our diplomatic correspondent, paul adams, with the latest. there is an invitation from salva kiir, south sudan's president, to both the warring generals to try and get them to go

to the south sudanese capital to sit down and talk about another three—day ceasefire, to carry on when the current one expires later today. and also to talk about humanitarian corridors within khartoum and perhaps to talk about the wider differences that separate the two of them. that is the offer, and it seems to have been provisionally accepted at least by the sudanese army, but we have not yet heard from the rapid support forces and general hemetti whether he is willing to attend the talks. the lull in violence in the sudanese capital khartoum has allowed many people to flee. tens of thousands of civilians have taken refuge in the neighbouring states of south sudan, chad, ethiopia, egypt and djibouti. aid agencies are calling for urgent humanitarian assistance for them. rescue operations by a number of countries have intensified since the truce began on tuesday. france has announced it's evacuated 936 people. the uk says it's got 536 people out so far, with britons being told to go to an airbase about 20 miles outside of the khartoum,

from where they're being flown to safety in cyprus. live to larnaca airport in cyprus. lewis vaughan—jones is there for us. hello, samantha. in the last few minutes we have had these cultures arrive, the green one and the brown one in the distance, full of people who have managed to escape sudan. these are uk nationals who made it to that airfield just north of khartoum yesterday, were flown here to cyprus yesterday on those military aircraft, and they have been out of the airport staying in hotels and they have just arrived, as i said, in the last ten minutes or so, as i said, in the last ten minutes orso, pulled up as i said, in the last ten minutes or so, pulled up here and are now heading into the airport proper because they will get on a chartered flight back to the uk. i spoke to one gentleman in the last five minutes, talking about the relief that he is finally now going home, and i asked about thatjourney and what it has been like, and he did talk about the really difficult

scenes he saw, bodies on the streets, and he has been speaking to people even now who are still there, still hearing gunfire. while there might really difficultjourneys but for people who have just arrived here they are now in safety here in cyprus. this airport has been acting as a hub for the uk rescue operations. in terms of the numbers, the numbers we have right now are a little out of date. this is from last night. more than 500 people have been taken out, but we think that number now because of people in the air and flying out still will be higher when we get an update on that, and of course when we get that we will bring it to you. but it has been a very strong message from the uk government that time is really running out. the ceasefire will last for another 12 hours or so and in that window people with uk passports and their immediate descendants are being urged to cross khartoum come across sudan, get to that airfield where they will be taken out. let's listen to the foreign secretary, james cleverly... we

the last few minutes we have had these coachloads of people with the most horrendous stories of their journeys. as for the flights now in what time remains for the ceasefire, we have been told a steady drumbeat of flights will continue to arrive here. we know that hundreds have been rescued so far but we know that thousands, more than 2000 registered for help. so there is a battle there with the remaining time before that ceasefire potentially comes to an end, to get as many people out as possible. samantha.— possible. samantha. lewis, thank ou. for more on that, we are joined now byjonas horner, sudan expert and former deputy dirctor for the horn of africa at the international crisis group. james hahn, welcome. thanks for being with us. what do you think about the attempts to extend the ceasefire? did he have any chance of working? ceasefire? did he have any chance of workin: ? ~ ., , working? well, there have been almost half _ working? well, there have been almost half a _ working? well, there have been almost half a dozen _ working? well, there have been almost half a dozen ceasefires l working? well, there have been| almost half a dozen ceasefires or policies _ almost half a dozen ceasefires or policies that have been called for

it's the fourth walk—out this year as part of a dispute about pay. the unions earlier rejected a 4.5% rise in wages. here in the uk, gamblers who are losing £1,000 a day are expected to face checks as part of new, tougher gambling regulations. sources say these will kick in when a gambler loses £1,000 in 2a hours, or £2,000 over 90 days. culture secretary lucy frazer, who will outline the plans in parliament later, says the rise of smartphones means "now there's a las vegas on every phone". the announcement of what the government's long—awaited white paper actually contains has been delayed at least four times, since the review of gambling laws was first announced in 2020. live now to our political correspondent in westminster, david wallace lockhart. do we know the details yet? we know some of what — do we know the details yet? we know some of what we _ do we know the details yet? we know some of what we are _ do we know the details yet? we know some of what we are expecting - do we know the details yet? we know some of what we are expecting and i do we know the details yet? we know| some of what we are expecting and we will get a statement from the culture secretary lucy safe laser —— the culture secretary, lucy fraser. hopefully she will outline the changes she wants to make. we have heard about changes when it comes to gambling laws for some time. they announce they wanted to do this in 2020 and you can see why they think this is an area where it needs to be updated. a lot of this dates back to legislation from 2005, and if you think about the changes there has beenin think about the changes there has been in technology, on smartphones and what people can do on them in terms of gambling it is no surprise that many people think it is time to

look again at legislation in this area. as you mentioned, the culture secretary, lucy frazer, was writing in the times this morning speaking about how she feels there is a las vegas and everyone's phone, so we do feel the laws need updating. we're probably talking about a compulsory levy for gambling firms that be put into addiction treatment, helping people who have gambling problems. there are voluntary levies at the moment but crucially the nhs doesn't take money from the gambling industry with its voluntary contributions because it feels there are ethical concerns around there. affordability checks for people who are losing big amounts of money in quite a short period of time, and there will also be a consultation on state limit, so how much people can bet per spin, for example, on an online roulette table, and we will be hearing potentially as well about different limits for people's age.

for exam, if you are under 25 you might not be allowed to place as large a stake as someone over 25. at the same time we are also expecting the same time we are also expecting the rules around physical gambling spaces, physical casinos, to potentially be relaxed for example to allow casinos to have more gambling machines in their premises. there have been many high campaigns this area to try and address gambling, to try and change the law to help people who have problems and addictions in this area. i think some of these campaigns have looked for broader change, things around how gambling is marketed, things around advertising, things around relationships with big sporting or cultural events. i'm not sure we are going to hear much wholesale change in this area, so some of these campaigners may feel that this is not quite reaching the sort of change they wanted to see, but as i said we should hear from the culture secretary shortly and get a much

clearer idea of the sort of changes the government is proposing. david, thank ou, the government is proposing. david, thank you. and _ the government is proposing. david, thank you, and we _ the government is proposing. david, thank you, and we will— the government is proposing. david, thank you, and we will bring - the government is proposing. david, thank you, and we will bring our- the government is proposing. david, thank you, and we will bring our uk. thank you, and we will bring our uk viewers full coverage when that happens, the culture secretary, lucy frazer, standing up in parliament with the full details of changes to the gambling laws. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. network rail are keen to point out this is a busy stretch of track. sire might have seen a man with two toddling children letting them run

and frequent storms can cut the island off four weeks. —— the island off for weeks. but people here face a new threat, caught between two superpowers, trying to gain supremacy over these seas. cyrus is out to catch flying fish, the islanders' favourite. but on his days out at sea, fishing and the philippine waters just south of taiwan, he spotted chinese ships getting ever closer. the chinese fishermen used to harass us. even chinese coastguard used to roam around the island. chinese coastguard? yes. the native islanders have forged a living, fishing and farming on this island for centuries taking only what they need. it's very fresh air. we live here in peace. but their proximity to taiwan has made them both a strategic us ally and a vulnerable foe.

the us and the philippines held combat drills here to practice defending an island from aggressors. part of the largest military exercises the two allies have ever staged. this is about more than a show of arms. this is about washington building an arc of alliances across asia. south korea, japan, the philippines, australia. the idea is to build a reliable coalition, just in case there is conflict with china. but some fear an increasing us presence will provoke the people's republic of china. we don't want a war with prc. we do not want that, we do not desire that, we are not provoking that. a war with the prc is good for nobody, including the prc. our method of operation here,

and a goal of our campaign in the region is to deter conflict from ever occurring. this sleepy town in the far north of the filipino mainland is now part of that deterrent. santa ana is home to a tiny naval base, one of four new naval sites the us can access. but some fear it could make the area a target. it's really difficult. that's why we try to provide some input about it, the feelings of our people, so that more superpowers will see, you know, how hard it is for us to choose between the two. between a neighbour who had never been our enemy, and between a long ally with so many difficulties too. but distance from the politics and the rhetoric, the people of these islands try not to dwell on what could be and enjoy what they have.

an island life is a simple life, they tell me. with a close eye to the north, they pray daily that it will stay that way. laura bicker there. president erdogan of turkey has cancelled scheduled campaign appearances for the second day running after seeming to fall ill during a live tv show on tuesday evening. the programme went off air for 20 minutes, after which erdogan apologised and said he had an upset stomach. 0ur senior correspondent, 0rla guerin, is in istanbul with more his officials are certainly trying to play it down. the president himself tweeted yesterday morning that he had been advised by his doctors to take a day's rest, so all of the days events were cancelled. we were due to be travelling with the president yesterday ourselves. we were in ankara on board a high—speed train which he was supposed to inaugurate. we were all in our seats and we were told at the very last minute he would not be

attending, so this was a late change to the plan. there were several rallies he was due to attend yesterday and they all had to be carried out by other people in place of him, then last night we got the announcement he won't be attending in person this flagship event today which is due to begin in about an hour and which is due to begin in about an hourand a which is due to begin in about an hour and a half, which is due to begin in about an hourand a half, and which is due to begin in about an hour and a half, and that is the inauguration of turkey�*s first nuclear power plant. instead of attending in person and presiding over that he will be attending over a video link. we are told the russian leader vladimir putin will be doing the same. this was a russian built plant. this is all critically important in terms of timing because we have elections here into and a half weeks. teiiii timing because we have elections here into and a half weeks. tell is a bit more — here into and a half weeks. tell is a bit more about _ here into and a half weeks. tell is a bit more about that _ here into and a half weeks. tell is a bit more about that because - here into and a half weeks. tell is a bit more about that because it l here into and a half weeks. tell is| a bit more about that because it is a bit more about that because it is a crucial time for president aired do one who has faced many problems over the last year or so, not least the devastating earthquake and the government response to it —— a crucial time for president erdogan. looking over his time in power he is

vulnerable now as he has never been before. 0pinion polls lately have given a slight lead to his main challenger. the secular candidate from a combined alliance, interestingly one of the first people to wish the president and speedy recovery when news broke he was unwell, but the polls are putting him ahead. it is a fight for every single vote now and the fact that president erdogan has to miss important campaign appearances in person gives some indication that he is quite unwell. it became clear on tuesday night there was a problem. he was in the middle of a live tv interview, the camera was not focused on the president but was focused on the president but was focused on the interviewer who was asking a question, but we could hear some muffled noises, we could hear a kind of a gas, then we heard somebody say off—camera, oh, my goodness, then there was a cut in the transmission for 20 minutes, so there was definitely a problem but there was definitely a problem but the official line from the president's spokesperson is that this is a stomach bug. without yet

have information about when he will be appearing in public to resume his hectic campaign schedule. firia hectic campaign schedule. 0rla guefin hectic campaign schedule. 0rla guerin in istanbul, _ hectic campaign schedule. 0rla guerin in istanbul, thank you. spain could see its hottest ever april day this week, with temperatures predicted to rise as high as a0 degrees celsius in some parts of the country, levels usually seen during the height of summer. the national weather service there says the potentially record breaking tempteratures mean large parts of the country could be at high risk of wildfires. guy hedgecoe, our spain correspondent, brought us the latest on the heatwave from madrid. we have been hearing from the national government and from local authorities the kind of advice that is usually given out in mid—summer, july or august, to the population regarding high temperatures. so they have been telling people that, where possible, at the hottest time of day, which is likely to be late afternoon, early evening, people should try and stay out of the heat, out of the sun. drink water. older people and small children who are at particular risk

should take particular care as well. but besides that, there are been other measures taken, for example in many areas schools have been told that children can study, have their classes earlier so that they are not studying during the heat of the day. some classes will be held outside, hospitals as well have been put on alert. you mentioned the risk of wildfires there. much of the country is on alert or high alert due to the risk of wildfire. so the fire services in many areas, particularly in eastern spain and southern spain, are on alert. guy, last year saw record—breaking temperatures across the country. that's had a devastating impact on agriculture and water supplies. yes, that's right, and spain has been seeing a drought

over the last few months, and of course these temperatures make that much worse. it is a huge problem for farmers. that drought is particularly acute in the north—east of the country, particularly in catalonia, where it hasn't rained in a sustained way for two and a half years. so as a result up there farmers have had to cut back their use of water by iio%. that's just one example of one of the many measures taken to try and save water. but there are concerns about the impact of this on agriculture and the subsequent impact that could have on food supplies and food costs — notjust here in spain but the food exported from spain. so this could have an impact, these unusual weather events could have an impact on supermarkets across europe, potentially. guy, scientists there, some at least, linking these record—breaking temperatures with climate change. yes, i think most people in spain i speak to seem to just accept that it's a case because they look at how different the spring is in terms of
