hello, i'm helena humphrey, great to have you with us. we start in india, where rescue efforts have now ended after the county's worst rail crash this century. 288 people are now known to have died and more than 1,000 have been injured. the incident took place in the eastern state of 0disha — and it's thought some 2,000 passengers were on board the two passenger trains involved. 0ur south asia correspondent archana shukla has visited a hospital where some of the victims are being sent. every 30 minutes, an ambulance like this comes into this hospital here in cuttack, which is the state's biggest hospital, ferrying in critically injured passengers from the accident site. this is still three hours drive from the accident site where last night three trains, two passenger trains and a goods train were involved in a crash that led to more than 1000 passengers being injured and many hundreds and dozens dying.

we are told since last night, nearly about 200 critically injured passengers have been brought into this hospital. this site here is one of despair, distress and of chaos. there are people here looking for their family members, some of them distressed, not knowing the conditions of those who are already here. this is one of the deadliest train accidents that india has seen in decades. and the numbers are only on the rise, both on the casualty side and of those injured. and a lot of questions that the government ministry will have to answer. indian prime minister narendra modi — visited the scene — and a local hospital — and met some of the victims — here's what he had to say. this incident is very serious for the government. 0rders have been carried out to follow an investigation and whoever is guilty will get a strict punishment. that person will not be spared.

there are varying accounts of how this train crash happened, including questions about which train derailed first. the exact sequence of events is still under investigation but bbc teams have been trying to piece it together. we know the accident involved three trains. the coro—mandel express, seen here in red, was heading south to chennai. the howrah superfast express, which is in blue, was heading north. there was also a stationary goods train which you can see here in grey. there are varying accounts of which train derailed first. but a railway spokesperson said it was the coromandel express. it somehow ended up on a loop line and hit the goods train. the derailed carriages — which you can see in red here — then collided with the howrah superfast express which was travelling along a different line. some of the superfast express carriages, which you can see in blue, also then derailed. the government has said in total 17 coaches from the two passenger trains were derailed and severely damaged.

a man, who survived the derailment, told the bbc that he feels fortunate to have survived the crash without injuries. i was seated in the very last porch of the train and behind me was just the security guards coach. so i was pretty, pretty much far away from the accident that occurred in the front. the train that i was on, that is the one that derailed. the only thing that we heard just at the moment of the incident was that it was around 630 in the evening. so, we heard a loud bang noise, and after that we experienced a very jerk—like breaking. and this lasted for about 30, a0 seconds and suddenly the train came to a halt. now, at this moment, we knew that something had happened, some kind of an incident had happened. and we started to get down the train to find out what exactly had happened, because there was some smoke coming or some smell of something burning. and when we got out, we first saw three different coaches that were derailed. three coaches that were derailed besides our train

on the opposite train track. now, at this point of time, we thought that these three coaches were even part of our train that we were travelling in or were part of some other train. after talking to those people who were coming out of their coaches, we got to know that those three coaches that we saw were part of another train. so at this point of time, we understood that there were two trains that were involved in this incident. the first reaction was definitely fear, because fear of the unknown, not understanding what is happening. then we went down. we try to help those people who were coming out of this derailed coaches. and after about 15, 20 minutes, we thought that, let's see what exactly has happened to our train, the train that we were on. about 10 to 12 of us. we started walking towards the front of the train. this was late evening and it was it was really, really dark as well.

night had set in, so we used the flashlights on our phone. we were travelling to the front. after passing about two to three coaches in front of our coach that we were sitting in. we found out that the majority of the accident, the brunt of the mishap, was actually borne by our train. this is when we found out that this whole incident involved three different trains. earlier today, one of the rescuers shared a harrowing account of what he saw at the crash site. just a warning — some viewers may find the details upsetting. translation: there was a small child amongst them whose - parents were killed. he was crying and eventually died. many people were there asking desperately for water. i offered water to each and every one of them. lots of people, including women from my village, came out to help. there were many injured people at the accident site. we successfully rescued many of them

and escorted them to the bus stop. they expressed immense gratitude towards us, referring to our aid as a godsend. witnessing the scene of the accident caused my mind to go numb. i was completely covered all over in blood. the turkish leader, recep tayyip erdogan, has been sworn in for his third term as president. the ceremony in parliament in ankara was held nearly a week after winning an historic run—off election. after mr erdogan took the oath of office, he promised to serve "impartially" and called for unity following a hostile campaign. the turkish president also unveiled a new cabinet line—up during a ceremony where his supporters gave him a minute—long standing ovation after his swearing in. entering his twentieth year in power, turkey's longest—serving leader has survived mass protests, a corruption scandal and a failed coup attempt,

but now faces immediate challenges including a slowing economy and tensions with the west. live now to asli aydintasbas. she's a visiting fellow at the brookings institute's centre on the united states and europe. she's also a global 0pinions columnist at the washington post, where she has written extensively on turkey. welcome to you. great to have you with us. great to have you with us. what do you think another five years of erdogan looks like for turkey? this has been an interesting day. the swearing in ceremony, i think, gave us an indication of what turkey is aspiring to be. strong all around the world except the west but from africa, from central asia, all really applauding erodgan. and i think president erodgan will now be thinking of his legacy. but he has

five years ahead of him to deal with some of the more fundamental issues, including the economy, but it won't just be that. i think in his mind, president erodgan really wants to see the rebirth of the turkish empire, whether we call it a empire or turkish republic, erodgan 3.0 will be all about the rising turkey, which has been the theme throughout his campaign. he says the 21st century will be the century of turkey. i think the sort of swearing in ceremony is an indication of that, with african leaders, with central asian leaders, with leaders from former audubon territory, really celebrating his election. i think that will be important, but he will also have to deal with some of the difficult issues ahead of turkish society. lets talk about his cabinet —

a lot of speculation as to whether he would change his economic policy, amid a cost of living crisis. he named mehmet simsek to the treasury. what kind of finance minister will he be? 0h, oh, this was very interesting. although long, his picture foreign minister, deputy president, a former finance person, coming very much from the market. a market friendly person, someone who was actually long overdue, the turkish will return to a rules —based understanding of the economy, do away with some of the more eccentric theories on the economy and interest rates that president erodgan has had. i think rates that president erodgan has had. ithink it rates that president erodgan has had. i think it shows us that erodgan is surprisingly in touch with reality. he understands that after this campaign, despite narrative the turkish economy is bankrupt, he has brought, again,

surprisingly moderate, and to build both on the foreign—policy side on the economy side, to move for a reconstruction effort. so potentially _ reconstruction effort. so potentially a _ reconstruction effort. so potentially a change of course, domestically speaking, at least when it comes to economic policy. but i do want to touch on forest policy and what we can understand, what we can glean from who attended, that swearing in ceremony, in terms of some of those international leaders. there has been a lot of speculation as to whether erodgan would continue to walk but diplomatic tight rope but he's been doing between countries like russia and the west. what's your assessment, taking a look at that guest list because mark i think that president erodgan will try to continue the balancing act between russia and the west, but this is not a pro—russia or eurasian cabinet. it is a cabinet, the fact that he has moderates and people like his former intel chief which he has now made the foreign minister,

the fact that he has people like him is probably a signal that he wants to establish better relations, a more stable relationship with the west. he has known or someone who has worked well with his western counterparts. i would say again, somewhat cautiously optimistic in the sense that it is a more moderate cabinet. more hardliners, hardliner figures like his former interior minister. to me, this signals a better set, and improved relationship with western countries in europe. relationship with western countries in euroe. . ~ relationship with western countries in euroe. ., ~ ., relationship with western countries in euroe. ., ~' ., relationship with western countries in euroe. ., ~ ., ., in europe. taking a look at the presidential — in europe. taking a look at the presidential runoff, _ in europe. taking a look at the presidential runoff, the - in europe. taking a look at the presidential runoff, the fact i in europe. taking a look at the i presidential runoff, the fact that it even went to a runoff seems to signal that there is some pollution going on. the opposition supporters, they had about a week to come to terms with the idea of their defeat. where do you think they go in the next five years, the next year ahead

because mark as next five years, the next year ahead because mar— because mark as you have said, the count is because mark as you have said, the country is really _ because mark as you have said, the country is really divided. _ because mark as you have said, the country is really divided. in - because mark as you have said, the country is really divided. in his - country is really divided. in his victory speech on the night of elections, erodgan was not very magnanimous. he continued on with a more combative narrative that he has had throughout the election campaign. today, he talked about reconciliation, which was of course important. i think it would be very important. i think it would be very important for both the incumbent president erodgan and his team, and the opposition leaders to take the lessons they need to take from this election. forthe lessons they need to take from this election. for the opposition, lessons they need to take from this election. forthe opposition, it probably means starting to think of change of leadership, starting to think of why they haven't got the majority despite the fact that the country has basically hyperinflation. there will be some reluctance, but i think it would be very important for the opposition leaders to also come up with accountability, as you have in your

country and in many other countries. if you lose an election, you have to start questioning yourself. for president erodgan, he has to rule with the knowledge, almost half the country has not voted for him. i think that the turn of reconciliation today continues over the next three months. {line reconciliation today continues over the next three months.— the next three months. one other toic i do the next three months. one other topic i do want — the next three months. one other topic i do want to _ the next three months. one other topic i do want to briefly - the next three months. one other topic i do want to briefly touch - the next three months. one other topic i do want to briefly touch on | topic i do want to briefly touch on is the question of sweden and nato. we saw again. jens stoltenberg is there, the head of nato — does that tell us anything about the sweden question and whether turkey will give the green light to allow them to join the alliance? we don't know what turkey will do. i think were going to see some drama injuly and may be on the day of the summit. what turkey wants, is of course a number of concession from sweden but i have always argued that it is notjust been about sweden. i

think it's also about a reset with the united states, so for the united states to come into the room and put some goods on the table. mac once outlook on this is very transactional and it is not about enlargement, it's about what sweden can do, but it's also about the type of relationship he can establish with the biden administration. i noticed that swedish prime minister and other european leaders have not shown up for the swearing ceremony. the prime minister of sweden was there. he has always been seen as a good important interlocutor with erodgan on turkish issues. but there will be a lot of diplomacy but also involves washington on this issue. asli aydintasbas, thank you. thank

ou. the us defence secretary has called for talks between the washington and beijing, after his chinese counterpart refused a meeting at asia's largest security summit. speaking at the shangri la dialogue in singapore, lloyd austin said a conflict over taiwan was neither imminent nor inevitable, but he criticised beijing for what he called �*reckless' actions in the waters around the disputed island. he briefly shook hands with his chinese counterpart, general li shang—fu, on the sidelines of the summit — but beijing rejected direct talks between the two because general li is currently under us sanctions. general austin said that wasn't enough to ensure peace. a cordial handshake over dinner is no substitute for a substantive engagement. and the more that we talk, the more we can avoid the misunderstandings and miscalculations that could lead to crisis or conflict. you know, i am deeply concerned

that the prc has been unwilling to engage more seriously on better mechanisms for crisis management between our two militaries. but i hope that will change, and soon. in response, general li said... "the string of mistaken words and deeds on the us side have left no condition and atmosphere for the communication and exchanges between the two armies." let's take a look at some other stories around the world. after months of debate, the political saga over the us debt ceiling has ended, with the stroke of a pen. on saturday, presidentjoe biden signed a bill that suspends the debt limit for two years and cuts back on some federal spending. it comes just days before the deadline ofjune 5, avoiding a potential catestrophic default. officials in the ukrainian city of dnipro say an explosion has destroyed a residential building, injuring at least thirteen people, including three children.

there are reports the explosion was caused by a missile, although the military has not confirmed this. footage from the scene shows rescue workers digging through smouldering wreckage in the dark. three israeli soldiers have been killed in two separate incidents near the country's southern border with egypt. the israeli military said an egyptian policeman was responsible and that he'd been shot dead. egypt's military said the officer had crossed a checkpoint while chasing drug traffickers. several rights activists have been detained by police in hong kong on the eve of the 34th anniversary of the tiananmen square massacre in beijing. the activists were stopped near a key location where vigils used to take place honoring protesters killed by the chinese military in 1989. and people have reported seeing orcas targeting boats off the coast of gibraltar. this video was taken by a man who was in a small boat when a pod approached — we can see here the orcas appeared to work together

to try to ram the vessel. although more commonly known as killer whales, orcas are part of the dolphin family and can weigh up to six tonnes. to the uk — where boris johnson has been warned that he could lose legal funding if he undermines the government's covid inquiry. in a letter sent by officials, the former prime minister was asked to submit supporting evidence to the cabinet office for security clearance, before being passed on to the inquiry. extracts of this letter were published by the times newspaper. what this letter was was a letter from the cabinet office to mr johnson about that. we don't have the full letter but we have some extracts that have been published on the sunday times, and one of those it says that the funding will cease to be available to mrjohnson if he knowingly seeks to frustrate or

undermine the governments position in relation to the inquiry unless there is a clear conflict of interest, it's ours. the paper also says that later on the letter he is told that he has to send any witness statement or exhibit which he intends to provide to the inquiry to the cabinet office first we can be security check, and that he needs to make any necessary reductions that they say before submitting it to the inquiry as part of the terms of keeping the public money for his legal advice. over 30 protestors have been arrested at the epsom derby. police say that includes 19 people who were arrested before the horse race, in connection with plans to disrupt it. 0ne protestor ran onto the track as the derby got under way. 0ur correspondent charlotte gallagher was there and followed the day's events. great to see you. like the outfits. thanks for coming. enjoy the derby! the sun was out and so were the crowds... ..and then those who weren't there to have fun. an extra £150,000 was spent on security for this event.

today wasn't just about runners and riders. it was about protest, too. organizers were so fearful there could be large scale disruption from animal rights activists, they were granted an injunction to try to stop them entering the racecourse. even men wearing top hats were searched as they entered to make sure nothing was being hidden underneath them. but this protester did make it onto the track, and was tackled to the ground as the epsom derby was already underway. activists from the group animal rising say officials started the race aware someone was on the track. one person was arrested after getting onto the track, and that is what his aim was. commentator: and king of steel takes over! - but the owners of the racecourse say he threatened the safety of people and horses. the race had very clearly started when he went on the course, and what's more, the broadcasters

footage and timings can prove that — and we will prove that. so we utterly condemn that reckless and illegal behaviour. today was a final farewell to the epsom derby from frankie dettori. he's retiring this year and was hoping to claim another derby victory, but it wasn't to be. auguste rodin secured a third win for the jockey ryan moore, and a record ninth for the trainer aidan 0'brien. 0bviously, you're always hoping, you're never confident but you always hope. but there's so many things in these races that can go against you. we were lucky. the horse was in great order. everyone had him in great order and ryan gave him an incredible ride. the winners are taking home just under £900,000 in prize money — definitely a reason to celebrate. charlotte gallagher, bbc news, epsom. to the world of fashion now, and british vogue editor—in—chief edward enninful is stepping down

from his role after six years at the top magazine. the ghanian—british creative is the first black man to hold the title and will now move into a newly created role aimed at growing the brand globally. 0ur reporter nicky schiller is in the newsroom with more. 51—year—old edward enninful is the first man to hold the top job at british vogue. he was born in ghana and moved to the uk. his fashion career began when he was aged just 16 after being talent spotted by a model scout in london. now, back in 2017, just before his first magazine was published, he spoke to the bbc and we asked him what his british vogue would be. my vogue is about sort of being inclusive. it's about diversity, sort of showing different women, different body shapes, different races, class, sort of tackling gender. i mean, before i got thejob, i spoke to certain women, and they felt that they were not represented by the magazine.

so, i wanted to create a magazine that was sort of open and friendly. over the past six years, he's certainly lived up to those promises, breaking creative boundaries. for example, last month, he featured five disabled cover stars, something he called one of the proudest moments of his career. but there have been other firsts. for example, in october 2022, timothee chalamet became the first male cover star of british vogue. in 2020, damejudi dench was the oldest cover star aged 85, whilst in 2019, meghan, duchess of sussex, edited a special edition of the magazine. this also made headlines during the covid pandemic, when three front line workers were put on the cover. now away from the magazine, edward has also spoken about his struggles with racism and being a black gay man. in 2020, he said he was even racially profiled at vogue's offices after being told to use the loading bay by a security guard as he entered work. i'm a black man in this world.

it's not the first time i've been, you know, pigeonholed in that way. it won't be the last time i'll be profiled. here he is last month at king charles's coronation with katy perry. he's worked with the king's charity, the prince's trust in africa and is a global ambassadorfor it. now, moving forward, he's going to be vogue's global creative and cultural adviser. in a memo to staff, he thanked legendary editor in chief anna wintour. he has long been tipped as her possible successor. before we go let's remind you of our top story in india where rescuers are working the worst rail cross in this century. at least 288 people were killed and more than 300 injured in friday's incident when two passenger trains collided. rescue efforts have concluded there, with officials saying that all trapped and injured passengers have now been retrieved. the prime

minister has been a said the scene, labelling the incident as a painful one. youre watching bbc news. thanks for your company, more news coming your way. hello there. this fine, settled, dry and sunny spell set to continue throughout this weekend, and indeed into much of next week as well. so, largely dry and settled thanks to high pressure. always warmest and sunniest out towards the west. little bit cool and cloudy at times. closer to the north sea coast, but many places will stay dry. bar the odd shower. the center of our high pressure system sitting out towards the northwest of the uk so we will always have this east northeasterly airflow which will be fresh over the next few days across the south east corner. and it will continue to drag in low cloud into eastern england and the midlands for the early part of sunday. northern eastern scotland also

cloudier, but clearer skies further west, temperatures four to nine degrees. so sunday morning, we start off a little bit gray. central and eastern areas, the cloud should burn back to the coast. elsewhere, plenty of sunshine, just the chance of an afternoon shower developing across scotland, northern ireland, very isolated. mind you, most places will stay dry. and again, the best of the temperatures towards the north and the west, bit cooler along north sea coast. and then through sunday night with that breeze in place across east, south east england, we will drag that low cloud back westwards across much of central, southern and eastern england. also northern and eastern scotland, clear skies out towards the west and temperatures again ranging from around four to nine degrees for many of us. we do it all again to start the new week. monday, a bit of a grey start central east now as that cloud slowly burning back to the coast, a bit more breezy again across the south east, just packing temperatures back, the chance of an isolated shower again for scotland, northern ireland, but very isolated, most places dry, top temperatures again up to close to the mid 20s, but generally the low 20s here, cooler

along north sea coast. same too for tuesday, a bit more cloud across eastern scotland, eastern england with more of a breeze here. that's the sunshine towards the south and the west again, the low 20s at best, but low to mid or high teens along some north sea coast. then some subtle changes towards the end of the week, this area of low pressure will hurtle towards our shores, throwing up some showers to southern and western areas. but with a change in wind direction coming in from the south or southeast, we could import some warmer air off the near continent for the end of the week. certainly across parts of england. so many places will be dry, but showers could increase across southern and western areas towards the end of the week, but it'll be noticeably warming up.
