a very warm welcome to the programme. we begin in france, where the grandmother of the teenager whose fatal shooting by police in a paris suburb triggered widespread riots across the country has appealed for the violence to stop. another 700 people were arrested on saturday night, with clashes in marseille in southern france and a number of other cities. president emmanuel macron is holding emergency talks with government ministers — these pictures from the last hour or so. this is the third meeting in a week, following that fifth night of nationwide unrest. these talks come as there's been widespread condemnation of an attempt to set fire to the home of a local paris mayor, with rockets fired at the official�*s fleeing wife and children. he has been speaking for the first time about his family's ordeal. let's go live to paris. i time about his family's ordeal.

let's go live to paris.— time about his family's ordeal. let's go live to paris. i am at the el see let's go live to paris. i am at the elysee palace — let's go live to paris. i am at the elysee palace in _ let's go live to paris. i am at the elysee palace in the _ let's go live to paris. i am at the elysee palace in the centre - let's go live to paris. i am at the elysee palace in the centre of. elysee palace in the centre of paris. fora elysee palace in the centre of paris. for a couple of hours this evening, french president emmanuel macron was here on a sunday night, holding crisis talks with the prime minister, the interior minister, the justice minister, amongst other top officials. it is quite striking, as i say, on a sunday evening that he has brought people together to have these talks. as you say, it is not these talks. as you say, it is not the first talks he has had on this ongoing crisis this week. really we still do not see what the political resolution is to this ongoing crisis. tonight, once again there are thousands of police officers who are thousands of police officers who are on standby across the country in case of further violence. some 45,000 case of further violence. some 16,000 police officers across the country. it comes after another night of unrest saturday into sunday. about 700 people were arrested last night. that was

definitely down from friday night when officer said they made around 1300 arrests. of course, the real challenge is what can be done to contain this ongoing violence. today we heard from some of the family members of 17—year—old nahel. he is the teenager who was shot dead by police officer. his death sparking those mass protests for days on end now. tonight his family are saying that they want can, they have called for calm. his grandmother spoke to a french channel. translation: i tell them to stop it. it is mothers who take buses, mothers who walk outside. we should calm things, we don't want them to break things. these people should calm down. nahel is dead, that is all that is. and i have lost my daughter. without her child, i have lost her. it is over, my daughter no longer has a life. it is over, and i understand her. and so, as a grandmother,

they took away my daughter and my grandson, both of them, that's it. i'm tired, i can't bear this any longer. the grandmother of 17—year—old nahel. it does feel in some ways that the public mood and sympathy and support for the protest is starting to wane. when you have people like the family urging the rioters to stop. we also had in the last couple of days from personalities like the french football captain killian mbappe telling people he might sympathise with some of the reasons why they are on the streets, but that does not justify violence. are on the streets, but that does notjustify violence. last night, things took a different turn when the home of a mayor in the suburb of france was attacked. he was not actually at home at the time, he was at the town hall, but his family, his wife and their young children, were at home when a car was rammed

into the front of their house and it was set alight. his wife was able to escape with the children. she broke her leg. but it really did kind of making national headlines here because of the nature of the attack. the mayor of that suburban municipality said that he felt it had been a real turning point. now, he has been speaking to the media for the first time. let's have a listen to a little bit of what he had to say. translation: , ., hadto say. translation: , ., ., , ., translation: there is no doubt that the wanted translation: there is no doubt that they wanted to _ translation: there is no doubt that they wanted to bring _ translation: there is no doubt that they wanted to bring the _ translation: there is no doubt that they wanted to bring the house - translation: there is no doubt that| they wanted to bring the house down. in fact, _ they wanted to bring the house down. in fact, from — they wanted to bring the house down. in fact, from the moment they learned — in fact, from the moment they learned someone was inside because the lights _ learned someone was inside because the lights were on, far from stopping, the unleashed a salvo that was completely crazy. we are very tired. _ was completely crazy. we are very tired. we — was completely crazy. we are very tired, we are exhausted, we are sad, we are _ tired, we are exhausted, we are sad, we are angry, — tired, we are exhausted, we are sad, we are angry, we are scared. at the same _ we are angry, we are scared. at the same time, — we are angry, we are scared. at the same time, we are still standing. i wasjust— same time, we are still standing. i wasjust told that same time, we are still standing. i was just told that my wife's operation was successful and she will wake — operation was successful and she will wake up soon, so we are

systemic problem of racism in france's police force. racial profiling and heavy handedness. they say that they will continue to protest unless something changes. let's see what happens tonight, let's see whether the words of nahel�*s grandmother will make a difference to the people who have been taking to the streets in violence. certainly last night when we were out in the centre of paris, it was a massive police presence in the tourist area. that definitely did deter some of the people we were expecting to see in their protest from coming out. huge police presence tonight. we can only wait and see what happens as the evening progresses. and see what happens as the evening rouresses. ., ~' and see what happens as the evening rouresses. ., ~ , ., , and see what happens as the evening rouresses. ., ~ y., , . progresses. thank you very much. of course, progresses. thank you very much. of course. lots — progresses. thank you very much. of course. lots to _ progresses. thank you very much. of course, lots to follow _ progresses. thank you very much. of course, lots to follow on _ progresses. thank you very much. of course, lots to follow on the - progresses. thank you very much. of course, lots to follow on the story, . course, lots to follow on the story, you can follow the live page on the bbc news website and app. here in the uk, the head of nhs england says it's patients who are paying the price for continued strikes in the national health service,

and that this month's planned industrial action by doctors could be the worst yet. the health secretary, steve barclay, said pay demands must be balanced against the need to deal with inflation. here's our political correspondent helen catt. the nhs will turn 75 in a few days' time but in recent months, it's really been showing the strain — for staff, with one in ten posts empty, and for patients, with records of numbers of people on waiting lists for treatment. the woman in charge of running the nhs today insisted things were on the right track. almost all our indicators actually are going in the right direction at the moment. but what we have to recognise... with more people waiting than ever before and fewer people treated, even though you've got bigger budgets? so numbers of patients, you're absolutely right, that's going up, and we've always said, that was going to get bigger before it came down. but the longest waits are reducing and are reducing consistently. what do we want? fair pay! months of strike action have led to more than 500,000 appointments being rescheduled. nurses have now ended their strikes butjunior doctors are set to walk

out again later this month for five days. and consultants will now strike too, just a few days later. for the nhs boss, it's concerning. there has been a significant amount of disruption and that is only, at the moment, going to get more significant as we hit the next round of strikes. so that's seven out of eight days in the middle ofjuly where we'll see action and the truth is, the hard truth is, it is patients that are paying the price. she's calling on both the health secretary and the unions to reach a resolution, but how is not yet clear. the government has said it won't meet the pay demands being made. we stand ready to have discussions. there's other things, for example, in the contract that could be reformed, in the way it often values time over experience, so the pay progression through the consultants' contracts. i don't think 35% demand from the junior doctors is affordable, given our need to bring inflation down. labour won't put a figure on pay but says it would negotiate. i understand the pressure

that they're facing, the massive sense of frustration that they have. but alongside that, the conservatives with their reckless approach last year crashed the economy and we've had a real failure around growth. so if we were the next government, we'd face some pretty tough choices. fair pay! the nhs and the government have this week set out a long—term plan to boost staffing. the immediate pressures, though, are still some way from being resolved. helen catt, bbc news. staying in the uk, new measures aimed at curbing protest methods often used by environmental groups have come into effect in england and wales. under the new laws, police now have powers to move protesters who disrupt transport, while offenders could face three years in jail for tunnelling near key sites. the home office says the public order act 2023 will target "a selfish minority" but critics argue they threaten the right to protest. groups such asjust stop oil have continued with high profile protests including at yesterday's pride

in london event. sir peter fahy, the former chief constable of greater manchester police, gave his reaction to these new powers. there is no question, the public are really fed up with the activities of groups likejust stop oil and extinction rebellion and the way they block motorways. but i think the public also need to recognise that these laws will apply to all protests in the future. so it might be that you are seriously angry about a new housing development or the new railway, hs2, coming through your back yard, and these very stringent conditions, things like the police being able to use stop and search without suspicion to impose all sorts of conditions on people who may be planning a protest, that is going to apply to all protests. you know, the police are being drawn into a more difficult position. but on the other hand i would, to some extent, blame groups likejust stop oil because they have almost forced the government into this position of putting these more stringent laws and they are going to affect everybody that is trying

to plan a protest. rail passengers in england are being warned of disruption for the next six days, due to an overtime ban by train drivers in the aslef union. it affects 15 train companies, and signals the start of yet more disruption in the long—running dispute over pay. our business correspondent marc ashdown has more on this. this industrial action is short of a full strike day, but it means that drivers will refuse to work any overtime from first thing tomorrow until saturday night. six full days in total. that is important because most train companies rely on drivers working that overtime in order to run their full schedules. so this action will affect 15 operators running services across england. let's have a look at of them. we have got thameslink and southern down here. great northern, of course, lner and avante west coast — they run trains all the way from london up into scotland. so what can we expect? well, many have said they will have to run at reduced timetables. for example, some may cancel the first and last

trains of the day. there could also be some short notice cancellations, as well. so, as ever, passengers advised to check before you travel. now, this dispute, of course, is about pay. aslef has rejected an offer of a a% rise backdated to last year and a further a% this year. the operators and the government, of course, wanted the union to agree to changes to working practices, to modernise the railways. the good news, aslef doesn't have any full strike day planned at this stage, but the other railway union, the rmt, they are also in dispute over pay, jobs and working conditions, and they rejected a similar pay offer. and as you can see, they are planning three further 2a—hour walk—outs on july 20th, the 22nd, and july 29th. they will involve guards and station staff. so, no further negotiations between the companies and either union are planned. i'm afraid there is a summer of rail disruption looking increasingly likely.

let's get some of the day's other news here in the uk. the white house has announced that president biden will visit the uk next week as part of a european trip. he's expected to meet the king as well as the prime minister after his arrival next sunday. mr biden will then head to lithuania for a nato summit before stopping off in finland for a meeting with scandinavian leaders. the nhs in england is to double the number of clinics available to treat gambling addictions. the number of people referred for help has almost doubled in the last two years. seven new centres — including in liverpool and sheffield — are to be opened, with the aim of helping up to 3,000 people a year. politicians have been paying tribute to lord kerslake, who has died at the age of 68. bob kerslake led the civil service during david cameron's coalition government. he had recently been working with the labour party on the next general election. now it's time for a look at today's sport. australia have gone 2—0 up in the ashes series after winning the second test, but the final day

had high drama at lord's. ben stokes produced one of the great test innings, 155 runs from the england captain. they had resumed needing another 257 runs with six wickets in hand. stokes looked as though he would carry england to victory, as he upped the tempo as the last recognised batsmen. he hit nine sixes and had a century partnership with stuart broad for the seventh wicket, but once he was out, england's hopes were gone and they lost by a3 runs. the main talking point was the dismissal ofjohnny bairstow, the sixth wicket down. bairstow ducked under the final ball of a cameron green over and thinking the over was finished and the ball dead, he left his crease, but the australian wicket keeper alex carey threw down the stumps, and by the letter of the law, bairstow was out. but was it in the spirit of the

game? the incident enraged the majority of the crowd. and three lord's members have been suspended, pending an investigation, after verbally abusing australia's players as they walked through the pavilion at lunch. as for the incident itself, here are the captains' views. i do not think it is a new one. you seejonny do it quite a bit. he did it on day one to our guys. he looked like he had snuck out of his crease after most balls. alex carey saw it and underarmed it at the stumps. the rest is up to the umpires. jonny came out of his crease to have a chat in between overs. i think if the shoe was on the other foot, i would say that i would ask the umpires, put them under a little bit of pressure. then we would have to come to a decision, i would have to think about the spirit of the game, would — i want to win a test match like that? when i think about it like that, it is a no.

england really up against it now. england have to win all three remaining tests to regain the ashes the third test gets under way on thursday at headingley. staying with cricket — sri lanka have booked their place at the 50 over world cup later this year. they beat the hosts zimbabwe, the only other team with a 100% record, by nine wickets in bulawayo. after bowling zimbabwe out for 165 in under 33 overs, it took sri lanka just as many over to knock off the runs required. pathum nissanka was 101 not out. zimbabwe can still qualify if they beat scotland on tuesday. max verstappen has continued his utter dominance in this season's formula one world championship following a fifth win in a row. after starting on pole, the two—time world champion eased to victory at the austrian grand prix to move 81 points clear in the drivers standings. behind verstappen, ferrari's charles leclerc grabbed second, with verstappen's teammate sergio perez in third.

well, before the race began, both drivers and officials observed a minute's silence for dilano van �*t hoff. the 18—year—old died in a high speed crash during the second race of the formula regional european championship in belgium on saturday. america's rickie fowler is back in the winners circle. he won the latest event on the pga tour. he had to hold his nerve to do so. he finished in a three—way tie for the lead on 2a under par. then he won the tournament on the first play—off hole. british cyclist adam yates has retained the leaders yellowjersey following stage two of the tour de france. he finished safely inside the main bunch at the end of the stage, which was won by the frenchman victor lafay. champion tadej pogacar went above him into second. he's now six

seconds off the lead. the third stage crosses from spain into france. that is all the sport for now. the king of the zulu nation in south africa has undergone "thorough" medical examinations amid suspicions he was poisoned. this is after one of his senior advisors died suddenly on saturday. king misuzulu sought medical attention in eswatini — elysee a land locked nation in southern africa — as he's uncomfortable with seeking treatment in south africa. temesghen debesai gave us the latest on this story. let me start with what you said. first of all, like you said, we first got news of the king's illness through a statement that came out from the traditional prime minister. he said in a statement on twitter that the king had fallen ill. there was suspicion he might have been poisoned because one of his most closest and senior

aides died suddenly. he was taken to eswatini, formerly swaziland, they said he was receiving medical attention there. in the later hours, the spokesman, the royal spokesman, the king's spokesman, he came out and completely denied that the king was suffering from any elements. that the king was suffering from any ailments. he said it was completely baseless, baseless lies is what he said. he said that the king was in complete excellent health. in fact, in a statement, he said, it appears that there is an orchestrated agenda and a desperate narrative to communicate defamatory and baseless claims of his majesty's ill health. this is what he said. now, again, after that we heard that police sources confirmed to the french news agency there that there has been heavy police presence at a private hospital very close to the residents of the king of eswatini,

who happens to be the uncle of the king of zulu. as we mentioned, the king does not want to be treated in south africa. what more do we know about why that is? also in the statement that came out earlier from the traditional prime minister, he said the king was not comfortable to be treated in south africa. this is because both his parents, when they were sick back in 2021, they had received medical treatment in south africa. unfortunately both of them succumbed to their illnesses and they did not make it. so the king did not feel comfortable enough to be treated or to receive medical treatment in south africa. next a story that's been making headlines in the philippines. an advertising agency has apologised for producing a promotional tourism video for the country that contained footage of sites in other countries. our reporter nicky schiller has more from the newsroom. the new "love the philippines" campaign was launched last week

to a blaze of publicity. the idea, of course, to promote the country's tourism offerings. indeed, the slogan featured heavily on their social media channels. as part of the campaign, there was this promotional video showing what looked like different tourism locations across the country with words like love the adventure and love the culture. however, all was not what it seemed. this popular filipino blogger posted to say that she had noticed images in the video from other countries. they included this fisherman in thailand, whilst this plane was actually landing in switzerland. the french news agency afp got its fact checking unit to take a look at the video and they found images from brazil, indonesia, switzerland and the united arab emirates. now, after headlines for all the wrong reasons, the advertising agency involved has admitted that it did use stock footage. it issued a statement saying it was an unfortunate oversight, adding that it was highly

inappropriate to use stock footage. it also said that the video was produced at its own expense. now, government officials have been keen to emphasise that no public funds were used. indeed, the whole campaign itself cost $900,000. now, the video has been pulled from social media and an investigation is under way. the advertising agency involved says it will cooperate with that. and we'll leave you this hour with another incredible dog story now — the tale of how button the cockerpoo fell off a 50 metre cliff in east yorkshire — and survived. after being rescued by the coastguard, button's owners are very grateful to have her back home safe and well. our reporter rachel royce has been to meet them all. who would fancy their chances if they fell over this cliff? it's160—foot high, incredibly steep, and somewhere usually just for the birds. but somehow a nine—year—old cockapoo ran over the edge and is still breathing.

oh, there she is. she's a beautiful little girl. and how's she doing? good. sandra and her husband, brian costin, were on holiday in a caravan park in thornwick bay when the drama unfolded. it's a holiday spot in east yorkshire, popular with birdwatchers. sandra was walking in the fields when button disappeared. and then we sort of started to think, "well, where is she?" "we can't hear her barking or anything." and beginning to think, "has she gone over the cliff?" you know. then a bird watcher peered over the cliff and spotted her on the inaccessible tidal beach. she was on her feet. and then we could see see her walking around. and thatjust seemed like such a miraculous thing, you know? ijust couldn't understand it because i thought she'd obviously be dead at the bottom of the cliff, really. i can't see... i still don't know how she escaped, really. bridlington coastguard came to the rescue, assembling a volunteer team

to abseil down the cliff to fetch button. she calmly walked into their rescue bag and was lifted to safety. the costins drove button home that night and straight to an emergency vet. amazingly, it had just literally damaged a disc in its back, which was causing some damage to the spinal cord, but only to a relatively minor degree. i'm surprised it actually survived. that's a long fall. i don't think i would survive a fall that far. a reminder today from the maritime and coastguard agency that it is safer to keep dogs on leads near the cliffs. but all in all, it's a remarkable tale of survival for a favoured family member. rachel royce, bbc news. finally let's just show you some pictures from canada. ferry boats have been performing in a synchronized ballet in vancouver to mark canada day. these tiny ferries usually transport tourists and locals

but every year on the first of july they perform choreography. hello there. hasn't been too bad this weekend across southern parts of the country, mostly dry with sunny spells, so it has been cooler. further north, though, it's been much cooler and fresher, windy with some outbreaks of rain. and that's how this upcoming week is going to remain for many of us. cool and fresh with some wet, windy, spells of whether at times. but towards the end of the week it could warm up for a time, particularly across the south of the country as we switch wind direction. low pressure sits across scandinavia, bringing arctic winds down on a west—northwesterly air flow. you can see the yellows and greens and blue hues there indicating temperature will remain below par for the time of year. through tonight, although most showers will fade away, there will still be the odd one across western areas, and northern scotland stays windy with outbreaks of rain here and thicker cloud. and these are towns, and city temperatures could be a bit lower

still across some rural places. a fresh start to monday, some good spells of sunshine across england and wales however this feature will run in from the west, bringing thicker clouds and showery bursts of rain to wales and then across much of england, northern half of scotland stays quite cloudy and breezy with outbreaks of rain here. so quite a messy picture there. quite a cool feel to things, mid to high teens across the north and high teens, just about 20 degrees, across the southeast. some of these showers could impact the southeast and affect the first day of wimbledon, temperatures reaching highs of 18—20 degrees with some sunshine and the chance of showers increases later in the day. then, through monday night, we see further showery rain pushing across the south of the country. this weather front will continue to bring further rain for the northern half of scotland and temperatures on the cool side for the time of year. now, another messy picture as we head into tuesday. this weather front will bring some wet weather, we think, to the south of the country, this one will be lying across scotland and northern ireland.

enhancing the showers here. we could see some showery bursts of rain, some of it heavy across south wales, southern and southeast england through the day on tuesday. in between, sunshine and showers, but i think the winds will be strongest across the south of the country. so it's going to feel pretty cool for the time of year, 13—19 degrees across the south, factor in the wind and the rain here, and it will feel cooler than that. an unsettled theme as we head through the week, even into next weekend, but a chance of it warming up for a time through the south as we pick up southerly winds.

you are watching bbc news. the headlines... the grandmother of the teenager whose killing by police sparked five nights of riots in france has appealed for calm. the call comes after condemnation during an attempt to set fire to the home of a district mayor of paris. president macron is meeting ministers and security officials to discuss the unrest. extra police are expected to be deployed nationwide once again. over 700 people were arrested on saturday night. the head of nhs england has warned thatjuly�*s planned strikes in the health service could be the worst yet for patients. junior doctors and consultants will strike for a combined seven days from monday. laws aimed at curbing protest methods have come into force in england and wales. police now have powers to move protesters who disrupt transport, while offenders could face three
