rescue efforts have now ended. officials in odisha state have now revised downwards the number of dead to 275. it's thought around 2,000 people were on board the two trains involved in the crash. railways minister ashwini vaishnaw says, despite the initial findings they had to wait for the final investigation report. translation: it is about the machine and the chains interlocking _ which caused this accident and whoever did it and whatever other reasons will be known after the investigation. as train lines reopen, families are queueing outside balasore hospitals, anxiously searching for loved ones. bbc�*s archana shukla reports from the district hospital where the injured have been brought. more than a0 hours have passed since the train accident on friday evening, and many of the people have

still not found their family members and relatives who were travelling in the train. not sure whether they are dead or alive even. since train services on the tracks in this region were affected, many families from far off places like in behind the state of bihar or in chennai could not reach balasore in time. they're only coming in to the morning and trying to find their relatives. we are here in this hospital in balasore, just 25 minutes away from the accident site, which is where most of the injured and dead bodies were brought in yesterday morning in the initial few hours of the train accident. but now we understand from government sources and health officials that most of the dead bodies are now being transported to the bigger capital city of bhubaneshwar, which has better morgue facilities, better resources and capacity to store dead bodies till the time family members come and identify them. so while most families are coming here and it's

adding to their distress, they are trying to seek information and then will have to make a four—hour travel ordeal again to travel from balasore to the capital city of bhubaneshwar. and this is adding to distress. it's adding to a lot of questions that family members want to ask the government. how did an accident of this scale happen when the government has been investing millions of pounds in strengthening railway safety, signalling infrastructure, while prime minister narendra modi's government is launching bullet trains and vande bharat express and it's been a flagship scheme of the government, how come then that after so many years, a train accident of such severity could occur? in the midst of ongoing rescue operations at the crash site, a glimmer of hope has emerged. 0ne survivor has been discovered alive after being trapped in the wreckage for more than 20 hours. earlier i spoke to the journalist and author sandeep sahu,

who witnessed the remarkable scene earlier today. i was told by the officials present at the ground that about 170 bodies which were recovered yesterday were removed late in the night because more facilities are not available in adequate quantities here. so they were shifted to the state capital, where there are better facilities and there are still bodies being recovered. i saw five bodies recovered this morning. that was more than 36 hours after the accident. and they were lined up in a school building. and even as i was looking at the bodies, the mobile phone inside one of the victims started ringing and there was nobody to respond to the call. it was obviously a worried relative who was eager and anxious to get in touch with his relative without quite knowing

that he is already dead. that was a very horrifying scene. that was blood splattered all over the place and it was stinking. the bodies had started stinking because it was more than 36 hours, as i told you, after the accident. and they were removed. and one miraculous thing happened, which is one of the people injured stuck in the mangled remains of the train, was recovered, rescued alive this morning and rushed to a hospital right before my eyes in an ambulance. that was a miracle of sorts because most people believed there were no more people alive anymore. but i was witness to the scene where the person was still alive but critically injured. he was recovered, rescued today and shipped to the hospital.

ukraine has been hit by a series of air strikes overnight, with attacks reported on the capital, kyiv, and cities in the north and east of the country. at least 20 people were injured when a residential building in the southern city of dnipro was destroyed, which was described by ukraine's president as a deliberate russian attack. an official said five of the victims were children and that a man had been pulled from the rubble. china's defence minister has told asia's largest security conference in singapore that his country "won't hesitate for a second" to use force in defence of its claims over taiwan, a day after his american counterpart criticised him for refusing a meeting. general li shangfu blamed what he called a resurgence of a cold war mentality for increased tension in the asia—pacific region. beijing regards the self—governing island as a breakaway province which should be returned to its control. the general warned other countries not to interfere.

translation: we will strive for the prospect of peace - and reunification with greatest efforts and we make no promise to renounce the use of force. if anyone dares to separate taiwan from china, chinese military will not hesitate for a second, we will fear no opponent and resolutely safeguard territorial integrity regardless of any cost. 0ur correspondent, monica miller, reports now from the summit in singapore. the two countries disagree on many things, including taiwan, trade, and the territory in the south china sea. china's defence minister has warned of a cold war mentality and said that mutual respect needs to prevail over bullying and hegemony. the us defense secretary has said that partnerships will make the region grow even closer and that these alliances will keep peace and prosperity. but they do agree on one thing — they need to open a line of dialogue

in order to avoid a confrontation. however, some analysts here are saying that's going to be tricky until the us lifts sanctions on general li which have been in place since 2018. the defense minister will be in this position for the next five years. just imagine during the five years without lifting sanctions, he cannot go to visit the united states and he cannot invite lloyd austin to come because otherwise how can lloyd austin come because he has to be invited? and then about a hotline, i think minister li is a man that would talk most of this hotline and how can they talk to each other? so this would be very, very difficult. and this actually should not be very difficult for the united states because the sanction is an executive order. that means the biden administration can actually lift it. now, outwardly speaking, it may not seem like much progress has been made here at the dialogue. and the people here are taking rather a realistic tone. they know they have their work cut out for them.

but there have been many meetings taking place behind closed doors that are ironing out a roadmap to try to diffuse this situation. general li said that he has met with other defence ministers from other countries, including australia, south korea and japan, which are key allies of the united states. the bbc understands that the cost of detaining and deporting people arriving to the uk on small boats under the planned new legislation could reach £6 billion over the next two years. the illegal migration bill, which is currently going through parliment, would give the power to remove anyone arriving to the uk illegally and stop them claiming asylum here, including those crossing the channel in small boats. 0ur reporter aruna iyengar has more on this. well, the government here is under huge political pressure to get down the numbers of illegal immigrants coming to the uk. last year, 16,000 illegal migrants tried to cross the english channel by boat. 16,000 is a huge number and a big,

big rise on the year before. and it's been rising really over the past 5 to 10 years. so the government's brought in this new act, the illegal illegal migration bill, which is going through parliament at the moment. but it could really be stopped at the european court of rights, it could be stopped at the court of appeal, and also it might even not get through the house of lords at the moment. the bill really is saying that what's going to happen to these migrants is that they're being held in the uk for 21 days while they're processed and then those people would be sent abroad back to their homes in the countries that they came from or to a safe country such as rwanda, for example, where the british government has been setting up accommodation facilities to receive these migrants. at the moment, though, housing those illegal migrants in the uk costs around £6 million a day. so the question is, is whether this is going to be an extra charge on top or whether in fact the costs are roughly around the same. we're not quite sure about that.

and we are going to get clarification on that. robertjenrick, who's the immigration minister, has been talking about the policy with laura kuenssberg today. we can't be reliant on hotels. we've got to use things like barges or disused army bases. we also can't allow the uk to be perceived to be a soft touch. and i've just spent the last week visiting european countries like france and italy and those further upstream in north africa and all european countries are grappling with the same challenge. how do you accommodate very large numbers of mostly economic migrants? how do you deal with their cases in an efficient manner? the asylum system is riddled with abuse. we have to be honest with ourselves. myjob is to be honest with the public, and the way to tackle that is by changing fundamentally the way we handle asylum. and that's what we're doing with our illegal migration bill. so that was robertjenrick speaking

about the illegal migration bill, which is currently in the house of lords and being considered by parliamentarians here in the uk. the former uk prime minister borisjohnson, has been warned that he could lose legalfunding, if he undermines the coronavirus inquiry set up by the government. in extracts of a letter published by the sunday times, mrjohnson is told that he will have to submit any statements to officials so redactions can be applied. the government has begun legal action to challenge the inquiry�*s demand to see all of the former prime minister's unredacted whatsapp messages and notebooks. he says he'll give them to the investigation directly. a woman in her 70s has died, after being attacked by a dog in warwickshire on friday. a 52—year—old man and a 49—year—old woman have been arrested on suspicion of owning a banned breed and having a dog dangerously out of control. police say the animal has been siezed. let's get some of the day's other news now. violence in senegal has

continued for a third day. 15 people have been killed so far, in protests following the conviction of the opposition leader, 0usmane sonko, on thursday, for "immoral behaviour." clashes between his supporters and police broke out after the court ruling. a football match at the stadium of the argentine league leaders, river plate, in buenos aires, has been abandoned, after a fan fell to his death from the grandstand. the referee suspended play, whilst police and firefighters cordoned the area off, and subsequently abandoned the game. demonstrations against the israeli government's plans for a radical overhaul of the judiciary have taken place for a 22nd successive week. tens of thousands again took to the streets, with the rally beginning with a commemoration of the 3 israeli soldiers killed on the egyptian border on saturday. now it's time for a look at today's sport. here's gavin. manchester city will be fully focussd on saturday's champions league final on inter milan — after they completed their domestic double with an fa cup win over

rivals manchester united at wembley. moments to remember, ilkay gundogan�*s goal after just 12 seconds, the fastest in fa cup final history. united equalised from the spot — before gundogan got his second. a special day for them, after a long season and they'll be looking to make history, going for a first ever champions league title. with the premier league secured — a treble's very much on the cards for pep guardiola's side — as they look to emulate their neighbour's achievement nearly 25 years ago. at the end, we have to win it. i know how it works. we will give more, more, more, credit what you have done this many years. it has been so fun, we have done many good things but i said to the players, you have to put the pressure yourself. to recognise something good, you have to win europe. so the city players seemingly confident after that win — here's erling haaland on social media, holding the trophy

alongsidejack grealish — "two down, one to go." so back to manchester city's cup win then — and it's safe to say saturday night was definitely all right for pep guardiola's men — they were greeted by a special guest on their return to manchester last night. none other than elton john! he's been performing at the city's a0 arena. after flying back to manchester from the match in london, city's squad were seen in high spirits bumping intojohn on the airport runway. phil foden not missing the chance for a selfie. plenty of action at the french open to bring you today with novak djokovic taking onjuan pablo varillas. currently on court in the men's — lorenzo sonego is a set up against karen khachanov, 6—i, he won the first set. and it's currently 1—2 in the second. aryna sabalenka, the women's second seed, is in action in the evening game at roland garros against sloane stephens. formula one world champion max verstappen will be the man to beat in the spanish grand prix later today. the dutch driver, who has

a commanding lead in the drivers' championship, qualified fastest — ahead of spain's carlos sainz and britain's lando norris. despite qualifiying in fifth, seven—time champion lewis hamilton will start in fourth after pierre gasly received a six—point penalty, team—mate george russell, is 12th on the grid. my last lap wasn't the dream lap. i was second basically all the way until turn ten, i had a snap and lost. so once i got it on the other side, i'm just really grateful to be up there and be up in the fight and have that pace, so the team did really well to improve the car and we've just got to push hard tomorrow for the result. rory mcilroy has given himself a chance of a first win on the pga tour since october 2022 after a 2—under par 3rd round, the northern irishman�*s round at the memorial tournament in ohio on saturday saw him climb six places on the leaderboard. he shares the lead with american david lipsky and south korea's kim si—woo on 6—under. world number three mcilroy said he's sticking to the plan in the hope for the win.

and real madrid have announced their captain karim benzema is leaving the club. the french striker has enjoyed one of the great los blancos careers afterjoining from lyon back in 2009. his total of 353 club goals is bettered only by cristiano ronaldo, with his haul four la liga and five champions league titles amongst a host of honours won with the spanish giants. the 2023 balon d'0r winner has been linked with a move to saudi arabia. and that's all the sport for now. pride celebrations are taking place in thailand today with parades held under the theme "door to equal asia." thailand is open to lgbtq+ communities but has never passed the same sex marriage law. however, the winner of the recent election, the move forward party, says adopting this law is part of its main agenda. 0ur south east asia correspondentjonathan head is at a march in bangkok.

welcome to bangkok pride 2023 and as you would expect, this is a spectacular show. there is a spectacular series of events this month, and everyone knows thailand is lgbtq friendly, but it has legal obstacles that has to be overcome for full equality. one of the slogans they are using here about this march is that it is a gate to an equal asia because the situation is not the same in many of thailand's neighbours, countries like malaysia, indonesia, nothing like as many opportunities or as much recognition of the rights of lgbtq people and i think they are hoping spectacular events like this will push the agendas in those countries and perhaps the reason for a lot of the excitement you see here is this extraordinary election result we saw earlier this month, in the middle of last month, a young progressive party,

move forward party, did spectacularly well including in its raft of wide reaching reform policy is a commitment to equal marriage and equal recognition of gender. that's a big dealfor the lgbtq community and unfortunate to be joined by the policy campaign managerfor move forward party. first of all, how important is this issue to your party of getting full and equal recognition for the lgbtq community? it is a very important issue. this event is an annual event which is exciting but the timing of the event this year is particularly exciting because it is being held at a time when people are anticipating the passage of a marriage equality bill which was stuck since the last parliamentary term.

it got stuck in a second reading before parliament was dissolved so the interval, but we are proposing is a simple but fundamental proposal which is that every couple regardless of gender or sexual orientation should have an equal right to marry one another. and on one level it means every love is respected and supported by the state but on another level the right to marry leads to other rights and benefits as well, whether adoption, tax deduction, inheritance. why has it taken so long in thailand because everyone knows this is a country accepting of lgbtq lifestyles? if you look at the issue of equal marriage in talent politics in general, i think society here is in a tug between an increasingly progressive society and a regressive set of laws and political system. and i think part of the agenda

of move forward party has been to amend the regressive laws and systems and ensure it catches up with an increasingly progressive society in order to move thailand to a country that is free and fair and respects everyone equally and embraces diversity as a core strength of society. part of that is the equal marriage bill and we are seeing signing of a memorandum of understanding between various parties and there are 23 policies that the parties will push as a joint agenda and one that is equal marriage but it goes beyond marriage, it's ensuring we have a society inclusive of all groups, that we democratise the country and demilitarise politics, we decentralise and de—monopolise to ensure there is free and their competition. thank you very much. everything depends on move forward party getting into government, it's complicated and there are some ways to go but the atmosphere

at this march tells you how positive people feel that it's notjust the lgbtq community here, so many people coming from all walks of life to celebrate this and everyone hopes thailand will continue on its march to be one of the best places for the lgbtq community to be accepted. the only car of its kind ever built — the aston martin bulldog — has been given a modern makeover, to see whether it can break the 200 mile per hour speed barrier. the one—off model was produced in 1979 — and has now been restored and rebuilt, to chase the record of the fastest production car in the world. 0ur reporter phil mackie has more. archive: using a turbo-charged v8 engine, the bulldog can _ reach over 170mph. .. the aston martin bulldog was launched in 1979 to a fanfare of publicity. they thought it might be the car to rescue the then troubled company. instead, it nearly went bankrupt.

you just press the button... and you are released into the outer world. only one was ever built and after disappearing for years... ..they tracked it down and brought it to be restored here in shropshire. it was a wreck. this is how it looked when i first saw it in 2020. it has some of the original pieces, like this classic 70s dashboard but they also had to completely remake a lot of the parts from scratch. it looks absolutely fantastic, doesn't it? it's taken nearly three years to get to the stage, but it's nearly complete and this is an absolutely unique car. it's been roadworthy for about 18 months, but in between shows it's been continually modified. they've even had to make a new suspension system to allow the car to drive over speed bumps, which didn't exist in 1979. the man who's spent most

of the past three years rebuilding it is brett eggar. cool, very cool. very nice, there's only one, so what's to complain about? will you miss it? yeah, i enjoy this. yeah, i like this thing. it will be a bit weird going back to an e—type. what the hell? it's just here for its final tweaks and repairs, now they want to see if it can reach the 200 miles an hour that designers claim it could. it's the semi—mythical car that's been 44 years in the making. phil mackie, bbc news, shropshire. it's the tv show that many have hailed as one of the greatest of all time — hbo's succession follows the turmoil that engulfs billionaire media mogul logan roy, his power—hungry children and their hangers—on. last week the show ended to five—star reviews on both sides of the atlantic but spealing this morning, the man who played logan roy — the actor brian cox — made a startling admission. he hasn't bothered

watched the finale. why don't you watch it? i why don't you watch it? i don't know. why don't you watch it? i don't know i've _ why don't you watch it? i don't know. i've never— why don't you watch it? i don't know. i've never liked - why don't you watch it? i don't| know. i've never liked watching myself, somehow because of what happened to logan, i have been disinclined to watch it. i knew how it was going to end because i knew that logan had already set it up and so i gather that ultimately, the end, logan has won through even though he is in the grave. it is a strange situation, i don't cling on to things. when it's over, i move on. this show has been a great show, it has been one of the greatest shows of all times especially for me. , ., ., , , shows of all times especially for me. india's railway minister says the cause for— me. india's railway minister says the cause for the _

me. india's railway minister says the cause for the country's - me. india's railway minister says the cause for the country's why l me. india's railway minister saysj the cause for the country's why a train crash in decades has been identified. we have plenty more on this story on the bbc website. stay with us here on bbc news. hello there. it's a fairly straightforward weather headline today, a settled sunny sunday for most of us. we've had sunshine from the word go down towards the west. once again, this is porth beach near newquay in cornwall. lots of sunshine around and even the cloud cover across lincolnshire was fairly fragmented and is starting to ease away. this is a satellite picture over the last few hours. you can see that cloud across the east midlands, lincolnshire, lingering for a time across eastern scotland and it may well linger for much of the day into the northern isles. it's an outside chance as well of an isolated shower with the heat of the day across parts of northwest scotland and a brisk breeze running down through the strait of dover. but further west with the best of the sunshine, that's where it will once again see the best of the warmth.

temperatures likely to peak into the mid twenties. that's the mid 70s fahrenheit. so no surprises to hear that u.v. is going to be pretty high across the country. if you are out for any length of time, you need to perhaps bear that in mind. and if you have plans with friends and family outside this evening, it'll be perfect. once again, overnight, the cloud will start to roll back in off the north sea. we could see a little bit of patchy mist and fog developing out to the west. only the early birds will see that it will lift quite readily away. the cloud will take its time to ease, though eventually the sunshine burning it back to the north sea. it might linger in one or two spots and that'll have an impact on the feel of the weather. but generally the story is dry, settled and sunny and still pleasantly warm, particularly with any shelter in the west. now, as we move out of monday into tuesday, high pressure will start to drift its way steadily north and east. there is the potential for this low to perhaps bring some showers, maybe thursday into friday across the south west. it's a long way off.

we're going to have to keep an eye on that one. but more importantly, the wind direction will change to a southeasterly driving in a warmer, drier air source. so areas that have been a little bit cooler and cloudy of late will improve. so cambridgeshire generally in the south east, perhaps temperatures into the mid twenties, a similar story for perth as well. so looking ahead, yes, it's a dry start to the week with the sunniest of the weather continuing in the west. but by the end of the week the temperatures will rise. but we could see a few sharp showers.

this is bbc news. the headlines... india's railways minister says the cause and those responsible for the country's worst train crash in decades have been identified. rescue efforts have now ended. 275 people are known to have died and more than 1,000 injured. the bbc understands the cost of detaining and deporting people illegally arriving in the uk under the planned new legislation could reach £6 billion over the next two years. the illegal migration bill, which is currently going through parliment, would give the power to remove anyone arriving to the uk illegally and stop them claiming asylum here. china's minister of defence, tells asia's largest security conference, that his country "won't hesitate for a second", to use force in defence of its claims over taiwan.
