hello, i'm chris rogers. we start in france where the funeral service is taking place for 17—year—old nahel m, whose killing by a police officer at a road check in a parisian suburb on tuesday has sparked four nights of unrest. last night, police made more than 1300 arrests across the country. and in newsjust in, president macron has postponed a planned state visit to germany amid the unrest. riots have broken out in several cities — but notably in marseille, in the south of the country. video footage shows streets on fire, and shops including a gun store being attacked and looted by rioters. despite the deployment of 16,000 police officers, the violence has continued including in the capital, paris. the police officer involved in the death of the teenager on tuesday,

has been charged with voluntary homicide. let's get the latest now from paris and speak to our correspondent rajini vaidyanathan. as you say, it has been another night of unrest. the as you say, it has been another night of unrest.— as you say, it has been another night of unrest. the authorities say that the violence _ night of unrest. the authorities say that the violence lessened - night of unrest. the authorities say that the violence lessened friday . that the violence lessened friday into saturday compared with the previous few nights. but crucially, more arrests were made. than the previous night. more than 1300 people arrested, the authorities say, more than 400 happened here in the capital paris. a few hundred police officers were injured. it doesn't look like the violence shows any signs of abating. as we discussed already in the last few days, the deep—rooted cause of this violence is the death of 17—year—old

nahel, who was killed at a traffic stopped by police, by a police officer, earlier in this week in nearby nanterre, a suburb which is very ethnically diverse. we spent a lot of time in nanterre, we spoke to people who on one side supported the violence and said it was the only way of people to take notice of what they say is systemic racism in police's —— france's police force. we have also spoken to people impacted by the violence to say it needs to stop. but there is also a middle ground who agree that the violence should not happen but they think that the government needs to do more when people talk about discrimination by police. we have also been hearing from other correspondence across france as well. �* , ., .,

well. let's get more from leel. -- lille. the atmosphere here in lille in northern france is still tense. like many other cities across the country, this place has seen looting, fires, and damage to public property. 82 people were arrested in the area last night, and seven police officers were injured. behind me, you can see what remains of a big office building. about 500 people used to work here. this building was a very important part of this community. now, rioters broke in in the middle of the night, they poured fuel everywhere, and they set the building on fire. it was completely destroyed, as you can see, we can still see and smell the smoke. the people who used to work there have now lost their offices, and their belongings. across the street, there is a pharmacy, and also a health centre. one of very few places in this neighbourhood where people can go and get treatment.

that has also been looted and destroyed. a lot of people here are telling us that they do not sympathise with the rioters, they have said, what is the point of destroying public buildings like this one, pharmacies, theatres, schools? theirfeeling is, that that is not the right way to ask for justice and remember nahel m. violence to north and south of france. back to the capital paris, perhaps some analysis from you, what we are hearing a lot here at the bbc from experts and people, i'm sure you are hearing it yourself, is this apparent lack of will for the french government to address the very core of this issue which is police, accusations of police brutality and racism particularly in areas where nahel was from. emmanuel macron does

appear to be silent on this so far. do you think hearing from him, hearing some kind of independent investigation, some kind of review, will be enough to quell this anger for now? ~ . ., , for now? welcome it interesting. because after— for now? welcome it interesting. because after the _ for now? welcome it interesting. because after the shooting - for now? welcome it interesting. because after the shooting of. for now? welcome it interesting. i because after the shooting of nahel took place earlier this week, we did hearfrom barack 0bama took place earlier this week, we did hear from barack 0bama and who condemned the shooting. —— we did hearfrom president condemned the shooting. —— we did hear from president macron. condemned the shooting. —— we did hearfrom president macron. and then hearfrom president macron. and then he has condemned since then the ensuing violence. this has become a deeper discussion about what people say is endemic racism in france's police force. 0n say is endemic racism in france's police force. on friday, we have the united nations coming out and saying that they felt france needed to do more, the french police, to address what they said was discrimination and racism that they said was deep—rooted. that came from the united nations. hours later we heard from france's foreign ministry

saying there were no foundations in what the un had said. not acknowledging what many people including the un have said was a problem. we have had from the french police unions directly condemning the violence and being quite pointed about what they are saying about the attackers. 0ne reporter described the looters and protesters as vermin. it doesn't look like there is any point so far where the government is able to get those sides together and say we have got a problem. the first thing that needs to happen is acknowledgement that there is an issue when it comes to racism in france's police force. there have been other reports over the years that suggest that people from minority communities are disproportionately targeted. like i say, you have a statement from the foreign ministry yesterday completely dismissing that and saying there is no foundation in that. in many ways thatjust agitates people even more. you have

told me, we have been reporting that president macron is not going on that state visit to germany, he already cancels the extension of his stay in the eu summit, he came back to france. now people of course want to france. now people of course want to hear from to france. now people of course want to hearfrom him. it is interesting because you don't hear particularly criticising him when we have been out and about talking to people in nanterre, they criticise the police. at the end of the day it's up to the government to do something. and if the violence continues, there will be more of a call for this to be addressed. be more of a call for this to be addressed-— be more of a call for this to be addressed. ., ~' , ., , . be more of a call for this to be addressed. ., ~ , ., , . ., addressed. thank you very much for that update — addressed. thank you very much for that update and _ addressed. thank you very much for that update and analysis _ addressed. thank you very much for that update and analysis live - addressed. thank you very much for that update and analysis live from . that update and analysis live from paris. more analysis from our correspondences on the bbc news website and the bbc new. here in the uk, the average household energy bill in england, wales and scotland will be lower from today as the regulator, 0fgem, brings in its new price cap.

typical annual costs will be reduced to £2,074 which is about 2,600 us dollars, a drop of £426 or $541 a year. our business correspondent, mark ashdown reports. for about 18 months now, energy bills have been rising and rising, and finally they seem to be stabilising, but for millions of people, it's still a struggle. carly lives with her young son in a small flat in london. it is a relief that they're sort of stabilising, but they're still really high. they're still unaffordable, particularly with the cost of everything else going on. in 2019, the energy regulator 0fgem introduced a maximum price suppliers can charge for a unit of gas and electricity. it's reviewed every three months to reflect changes in wholesale prices. in april, it was set at £3,280, so a typical household will pay no more than that for their energy.

but, due to the government's energy price guarantee, those bills were actually capped at £2,500. now, from july, 0fgem's cap has fallen to £2,074, so it means the average consumer will see their bills fall by around £426 a year. analysts predict that energy bills will stay around this level for some years yet. we think that, unfortunately, prices are likely to stay higher until the end of this decade. that's because the competition for energy on the global stage is going to continue. and energy bills are still nearly double what they were before the covid pandemic. the charity, citizen's advice, says it helping more people with their energy bills than any other cost—of—living topic. we know that people are still really struggling at the moment. at citizen's advice, we're helping nearly three people a minute with crisis support, and we're continuing to break really unwelcome records when it comes to helping people with energy debts.

there are warnings, too, that six million households are now in fuel poverty. 0fgem says it supports vulnerable consumers and anyone struggling with their bills should seek advice from their supplier. mark ashdown, bbc news. a column by broadcasterjeremy clarkson in the uk's sun newspaper — in which he wrote that the duchess of sussex should be paraded naked in the street — has had a complaint of sexism upheld by the press watchdog. a record 25,000 people complained to the independent press standards 0rganisation about the article. david sillito reports. jeremy clarkson's column from december of last year was all about how much he hated the duchess of sussex, and that he dreamt of seeing her "made to parade naked "through the streets of every town in britain, "while the crowds chant �*shame' and throw lumps of excrement at her." the article was soon deleted, with jeremy clarkson saying he was horrified to have caused so much hurt. the sun also said they regretted

publishing the article, and six months on, the paper is now publishing a ruling from its regulator, ipso, that it breached the editorial code. will there be a fine for the sun? the remedy that the committee required is the publication of its upheld decision, to let not only the readers of the sun but also the wider public know about the reasons for the finding, and the sun will be required to flag that on its front page. the complaint was not made by the duchess of sussex, but by the women's rights organisations the wilde foundation and the fawcett society, who have welcomed the ruling. we're absolutely delighted about this victory for fawcett, for our members and supporters, and for wilde foundation, who also brought the complaint with us. this was a really egregious example. women have had to put up with this kind of hate for generation after generation. time is up — we are going to stand together and we are going to hold our press to account and say that it isn't acceptable to perpetuate these kind of hateful ideas any more.

and while there's no comment from meghan and harry, it's understood they were happy for the complaint to go forward about an article that prince harry described as "horrific, hurtful and cruel." david sillito, bbc news. let's get some of the day's other news now. at least 49 people have been killed in a road accident at a busy junction in western kenya. police say a lorry carrying a shipping container lost control and ploughed into vehicles near the town of kericho. more than 30 people were injured. the us state department says the chaotic evacuation from afghanistan in 2021 was the result of a lack of clear decision—making and an absence of centralised crisis planning. a new report from the department says the event seriously undermined the viability of the afghan government, which collapsed in days allowing a taliban takeover. and at least 25 people are dead in india after a bus in the western

state of maharashtra caught fire. the bus was travelling on the expressway from nagpur to pune when it's believed it hit a central barrier, causing its diesel tank to burst into flames. now it's time for a look at today's sport with gavin ramjaun. hello from the bbc sport centre. they're back out after lunch, in the second ashes test at lord's, and england are on the hunt for more wickets as they hope to stay in with a chance on day four. they managed to get the crucial wickets of usman khawaja, steve smith, and travis head in the first session. stuart broad, and josh tongue to thank there. but australia now 225—5, and building a healthy lead in the second innings, as they look to go two up in the series. the women's ashes gets back under way today. england's women are also on a rescue mission when they play australia in the first t20 match of their multi—format ashes series tonight. they lost the one—off test match by 89 runs at trent bridge in nottingham on monday. the way that match is weighted, it leaves the hosts four points down and needing to win five of the six limited—overs games to regain the ashes

for the first time since 2014. super excited, they're a really strong t20 team that are world champions so we're going to have to really take them on, try and play to our strengths and do the things that have worked so well for us for us in t—20. so, yeah, i'm excited to get into battle. and the men's cricket world cup is to come later this year and west indies could miss out for the first time in the tournament's history. they have to beat scotland in today's qualifier following their dramatic loss to the netherlands this week. west indies made 181 with the bat, a total scotland have in their sights. 154—2 so far. brandon mccullum with his half century. scotland still need to beat zimbabwe and the netherlands to qualify. 0nto football and we are now into world cup month, and england lionesses play portugal today in milton keynes before flying out to australia next week for the world cup. england will also take on canada behind closed doors before their touranment starts onjuly 22nd against haiti.

doing their best to stay in touch with those back home. we've just got to look at the world cup is something completely different. i think the best thing and the thing that we are working with the staff is just making sure that we get that time to be able to connect with ourfamilies back home. the time in which they wake up might be the time in which we might get some free time in our schedule just so we get the opportunity to connect with fans, to connect with family and just kind of being able to inspire the nation back at home. but being aware that we are inspiring of the nation rather than feeling like we are in our own bubble, we want to make the connections. after 12 years at manchester united goalkeeper david de gea's time at the club might be coming to an end. his contract finished yesterday and with no decision yet over whether he will remain at old trafford. the spaniard, a four time player of the year at united, had agreed to a new contract earlier this month, but it was then withdrawn. it means at the age of 32 he'll become a free agent. lewis hamilton will start today's sprint race at the austrian grand prix

from a lowly 18th as max verstappen took pole position. defending champion verstappen raced to top spot for the second day in a row after claiming pole for sunday's grand prix in friday's qualifying. his red bull team mate sergio perez willjoin him on the front row for today's 23—lap dash round the red bull ring. mclaren's lando norris came an impressive third. and just a reminder before we go. shohei 0htani's thunder was stolen by a cat near the end of a mlb game between la angels and arizona diamondbacks. while the crowd seemed transfixed by the game, the moggy suddenly leaped up a fan barrier without any fuss, tore into the seats, rattling a fan in the process. baseball fans had a field day reacting to the unexpected visitor who seemed quite at home in the stadium and in no hurry to make itself scarce. the first stage of the 2023 tour de france is under way in the spanish city of bilboa. you can follow live updates on the bbc sport website. and that's all the sport for now.

a new study by consumer group which has found many iced coffees from uk high street chains contain more sugar than a mars bar or a coke. the survey, which compared frappes and frappuccinos from caffe nero, costa and starbucks, found the drinks had "exceptionally high" amounts of sugar, with some containing more than an adult�*s recommended daily dose. shefalee loth is a nutrionist, and the author of the study from which. we looked range of frappes and frappuccinos from the main coffee shops in the high street, that's caffe nero, costa coffee and starbucks. and we found exceedingly high levels of sugar. so i think you mentioned, we found examples where one drink, and these were either standard size drinks or medium drinks, but in one drink, we found up to 46 grams of sugar. that's more than 11 teaspoons of sugar. and i think consumers probably wouldn't expect to find that

much in what they think is an honest coffee. much in what they think is an iced coffee. surely it can just be quite a simple thing to remedy, it should just be down to your choice of how much sugar you want in your drinks. why don't theyjust serve it plain and then you can add what sugar you want? yeah, well, that's true. so actually, if you go for a standard iced coffee, so a standard iced latte, or a cappuccino, actually the sugar levels are much, much lower because they don't have sugar in them. but these frappucinos, and frappes, they have syrups in them which obviously are really concentrated sources of sugar, and then, you know, these were standard drinks. we didn't even include the options where you can customise them and add lots of extra syrup or cream or toppings or chocolate etc. so these are standard drinks. but they contain more sugar than an adult should have in a day, and as you said, more than a mars bar or more than a can of coke.

now we are hearing some news just in. the dutch king willem—alexander has apologised for the netherlands�* role in slavery at an event marking 150 years since slaves were freed in former colonies. in his speech, the monarch said he felt "personally and intensely" affected. a dutch study revealed that the royal family earned the equivalent of nearly 600 million dollars from the colonies, where slavery was widespread. exploring the dark side of the universe — now that may sound star wars, but it's not science—fiction, it's reality. later on saturday, the european space agency will launch a telescope into space to try and solve some of its biggest mysteries. to explain more, here's our science editor rebecca morelle. stunning images of our cosmos,

but what we can see makes up a tiny fraction of what's really out there. the rest is known as the dark universe. we can't see it and scientists don't really know what it is. now a new mission is about to try and shed light on this mystery. it's just like trying to set off on a ship before people knew where land was in different directions. now we're just trying to map out the universe and try and understand where we fit into it and how we've got here. the european agency's spacecraft is called euclid. it's trying to understand phenomena called dark energy and dark matter. so what is dark matter? galaxies like our own milky way are held together by gravity. the force comes from everything that's in them — the stars, the planets, the dust. the thing is, all of this material doesn't provide enough gravity to stop these great spirals from flying apart.

there's something else there, a cosmic glue that we can't see that adds the extra gravity to bind them together, and that's dark matter. and what about the other missing part of the cosmos, dark energy? since the big bang, the universe has been expanding, with galaxies moving ever further apart. scientists had thought that over time, this would slow down, but actually, this expansion is speeding up and it's thought that a mysterious force, dark energy, is driving this. it could enormously influence the fate of our universe. how far is it going to expand? is it going to go forever and accelerate? is it going to just rip apart? or will it perhaps collapse back down again? understanding that fifth force, if that's what dark energy is, will help us understand, you know, not only where we came from, but where we're going in this universe. it will take the spacecraft six years to complete its map of the sky. what it discovers could mean

fundamental changes to our understanding of the universe. rebecca morelle, bbc news. the protest groupjust stop oil has warned it could disrupt today's pride march in london if the event doesn't stop accepting money from what it calls "high polluting industries". the parade has been getting under way in central london. 0ur reporter, megan 0wen, is at the the very noisy march. this is pride in london. it's one of the biggest of its kind in the uk. over 30,000 participants are in the parade this year, both from london and also from far and wide. i've been speaking to people who have come from new zealand, from canada, from france, just to celebrate the lgbtq+ community. the atmosphere is pretty incredible. as you can see. now, there are concerns that just stop oil are going to use this moment to protest,

a protest within a protest if you like. many feel that the focus should very much be on pride this year. earlier we spoke to the mayor, sadiq khan, who said that he wants this to be focused on the lgbtq+ community. so we are waiting to see whetherjust stop oil will act. but for now, the atmosphere is electric. over 1.5 million visitors, waiting in the crowd, waiting to see this parade, to celebrate, to celebrate love, celebrate pride. and clearly, that is exactly what is happening. a research team from argentina has tracked down the extremely rare santa fe frog hoping to learn how it reproduces, in an attempt to save it from extinction. the team set up camera traps to locate the amphibians

in the tropical dry forests of the dry chaco. they discovered how the frog with its characteristic leopard print hides in caves, emerging only to call for a mate. and for the first time they found evidence of eggs and tadpoles of the species. we just missed the close—up picture we were waiting for! there is more on the bbc news website. also we have live updates on the latest from france, the violence that has prompted president emmanuel macron to postpone a state visit to germany with only a days notice. you can follow all the details live on our website. there will be the latest pictures and video from the violence, 1000 people arrested on a fourth night of

far north of scotland about easing away this evening and overnight so a dry and to the day. as we head through sunday morning, cooler and fresher than it was first thing saturday morning. temperatures getting down into single figures across the countryside. low pressure sitting out across the north of the uk tomorrow morning, the winds rotating around it bringing some showers, mostly across parts of scotland and northern ireland. more persistent rain sitting towards the northern isles, lots of sunshine further south. a bit of a breeze blowing, not quite as strong as it is out there today. temperatures down a notch so between 14 and 22 north to south on sunday. no great change in the weather as we go through the new working week. if you have got tickets to the ashes at lord's, it looks like it is going to be a dry day tomorrow, 21 degrees, noticeable breeze coming in from the west. sunday night into monday,

there is the low pressure, not moving in a hurry, parts of scandinavia, more showers rotating in on the westerly breeze. pushing into northern ireland in western scotland in the morning, later arriving in england and wales. eastern areas will keep dry it the on monday. temperatures between 13 and 21 degrees. much of the week ahead is looking fairly unsettled so there should be some showers at times, some sunshine in between so not a write—off, drier and warmer in the south later in the week. some of the south later in the week. some of the showers could affect the championships which begin at wimbledon.

it will be used to study the nature
