the annual rate of inflation in the united kingdom fell to 7.9% injune, down from 8.7 % in may. however, it still remains four times higher than the target rate and overall inflation in the uk
11:16 pm
still remains the highest in the g7. britain's office of national statistics said the main downward factors were a fall in fuel prices, and food prices rising at a slower rate. an extreme heatwave is continuing to be felt across large parts of the northern hemisphere — amid warnings from the world health organization that the high temperatures are straining health care systems. wildfires are still burning across greece in southern europe — this is the scene just outside athens — where forests and homes are being destroyed. greek authorities are bracing themselves for a new heatwave, which is likely to further stoke tinderbox conditions across the country. southern europe is hugely affected by the heat — but the situation is global. all this red — shows temperatures above 30 degrees. in china, beijing has registered four weeks of record highs, where the temperature exceeded 35 degrees celsius.
11:17 pm
and in phoenix, arizona even fiercer heat — with highs of at least 43 degrees — that's about 110 degrees fahrenheit — for 19 consecutive days. the mediterranean basin is on high alert, with temperatures well above 40 degrees for several days, meaning there's a risk to everyone's health, not just the most vulnerable. well our reporter azadeh moshiri is in greece where wildfires continue to burn — she sent us this update. i am west of athens, in mandra. now, local residents pointed us here, they said, "follow the road and you'll find a facility that's completely burnt down". when we got here, we spoke to the owner and he said there were animals actually held here, dogs held in the basement for safety as the fires began to spring. now as you can see there's some smoke coming up, so i'll move you in this direction because over here, were deer who were held who hopped across the fence because the fire started engulfing and
11:18 pm
approaching this area. now here, in mandra, the fire extended across eight km. so scenes like this, devastation like this, is happening across the area, but also across mainland greece. another issue we are hearing from several local residents, including the owner of this facility, is they feel local firefighters didn't get here soon enough, that if they'd managed to respond all the wildfires in time, then perhaps scenes like this wouldn't have happened. meanwhile, the us special envoy for climate, john kerry, has been on a high—profile visit to china where he's been speaking with officials about the climate crisis. chinese leader xi jinping vowed the country will follow its own path to cut carbon emissions, while mr kerry insisted the crisis is a universal issue. and the climate issue is not a bilateral issue in ourjudgment. president biden believes, as i think most of the world does, that the climate crisis is a universal threat to humankind, and we all have a responsibility
11:19 pm
to deal with it as rapidly as we can. and we hope we will leave other issues to the side. our sports reporter maz farookhi was near where the shooting took place, and joins us now. we do know in the last two minutes the shooter and two members of the public have died in this instant. police are also saying that this isn't an incident of national security it's an isolated incident. happen on the street behind us. it started this morning just before seven a:m.. i witness reports in the area said the shooter is believed to be a 24—year—old male, who enter the
11:20 pm
building with a shotgun, started shooting people, we heard from a few people. they said they barricaded themselves in an office in this building which are still under construction. construction workers on the 14th floor work hiding and those on the roof as well were there until police arrived. police officers and armed members of the force made their way through the building, the suspect, the shooter, following his way into an elevator shaft, please try to engage with them and more shots were fired. we heard shots here on the ground as well and in the last few minutes the police confirmed the shooter has died. maybe if you police officers were injured as well, minor injuries, but it's been confirmed that two local people have been killed as well as a shooter here as well. the situation, police in the last few minutes has been resolved. we are expecting to hear more
11:21 pm
details from the new zealand prime minister in the next few minutes. in kenya, three people are reported to have died in clashes between police and opposition protesters. in the capital nairobi and the coastal city of mombasa, police fired tear gas to disperse demonstrators. schools and businesses across several cities are closed — and more than 300 people have been arrested. the country's main opposition leader, raila 0dinga, called for people to take to the streets. kenyan president william ruto — has appealed for calm. we have absolutely no issue with any constitutional- provision on picketing - or even on demonstration. but we cannot be a country of kills, we cannot be a country of violence, and nobody should take advantage of any constitutional provision - to propagate violence, _ to propagate anarchy and to destroy people's property and cause loss of life. -
11:22 pm
in afghanistan, a group of women are pushing back against growing restrictions on their rights. they held a protest in the capital, kabul against a taliban decision to shut down beauty salons for women. the participants shouted slogans demanding �*work, bread and justice'. some breaking news in new zealand with an update. this some breaking news in new zealand with an update-— with an update. this is the information _ with an update. this is the information we _ with an update. this is the information we are - with an update. this is the information we are able i with an update. this is the information we are able toi with an update. this is the - information we are able to share so far. the shooter was armed with a shotgun, he moved through the site disarming the fire garment as he went through. as he went up the building, he contained himself is in her elevator, shots were fired. i want to thank the brave men and women of the new zealand police will run into the gunfire, straight into harm's way in order to save the lives of others. these kinds of
