today at one: new hope in the battle against prostate cancer, as a study suggests a short mri scan could be used to screen patients. the ten—minute scans have proved more accurate at diagnosing cancer than blood tests. a short, ten—minute mri scan, used as a screening test, can selectively pick up significant cancers in a much more effective way. also on the programme, a developing story this lunchtime. a rescue operation is under way as eight people — including six children — are trapped in a cable car dangling above a ravine in pakistan. the number of people dying from drug abuse in scotland has fallen

to its lowest level in five years. us presidentjoe biden tours the damage and devastation on the hawaiin island of maui, after the government response to the wildfires is criticised. and the number of pieces of luggage lost, delayed or damaged by the airline industry rises to its highest level in a decade. and coming up on bbc news: where next for mason greenwood, after he and manchester united decided his future lies away from old trafford? good afternoon and welcome to the news at one. mri scans could be used to better detect prostate cancer in men, according to a new study. the scans — which take ten minutes — proved far more accurate at diagnosing cancer than the blood tests which are currently used to check for the disease. prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men. in the uk, one in eight will be diagnosed in their lifetime. if you're over 50, or you're black, or your dad or brother has had it,

you're at even higher risk. currently, men over 50 can request a blood test, which looks for high levels of a protein called psa. this can indicate a problem with your prostate, but the mri scans were able to pick up serious cancers which would have been missed by psa alone. our medical editor fergus walsh reports. paul rothwell�*s prostate cancer was caught early and successfully treated. it was diagnosed here at london's university college hospital, when he took part in a trial using mri scans. the 62—year—old's cancer would have been missed if he'd only had the standard psa blood test, which came back as normal. if ijust had the blood test, i would be carrying on life as normal, walking around unaware that there was some sort of ticking time bomb inside me of a cancer slowly growing. so by the time i then did find out,

presumably, it would have been much harder to treat and much more dangerous to me. so you feel fortunate? yeah, very fortunate. you know, thrilled that i was diagnosed so early. we don't see any sign of cancer recurrence there, so... paul was among 300 men — aged 50 to 75 — who took part in the trial, led by university college london. of the 25 men whose aggressive cancers were picked up via mri, over half, like paul, had negative blood tests. we think these are really significant results. what we see is that a short, ten—minute mri scan, used as a screening test, can selectively pick up significant cancers in a much more effective way than the psa blood test alone. that'll help us to diagnose the important cancers early, when they're curable. the prostate is a walnut—sized gland, which sits below the bladder. it's the uk's most common male cancer, with 52,000 new diagnoses every year.

this is what men over 50 can request from their doctor, a blood test for the protein psa. high levels can indicate cancer. so it's a useful test, but unreliable, as it's not always accurate. thank you. black men have a one—in—four risk of getting prostate cancer — double that of white men — but are less likely to come forward for testing. after he developed prostate cancer, errol mckellar started offering men discounts on their mot if they got themselves checked out, and he now runs a charity to raise awareness of the disease. when prostate cancer turns up at your front door, it doesn't care whether you're black, whether you're white, it doesn't care about your wealth, it doesn't care about you. what it will do, if you ignore

it, it will kill you. 0k, paul, nice and still... larger trials will be needed to confirm the value of mri scans, before a national screening programme for prostate cancer could be set up, which may take up to a decade. fergus walsh, bbc news. joining me now is our medical editor, fergus walsh. exciting news but it seems such a long way off? it exciting news but it seems such a long way off?— exciting news but it seems such a long way off? it does, the national screenin: long way off? it does, the national screening committee _ long way off? it does, the national screening committee which - long way off? it does, the national screening committee which has - long way off? it does, the national| screening committee which has set long way off? it does, the national. screening committee which has set up screening committee which has set up screening programmes for cervical, breast and bowel cancer says at the moment there is just not enough evidence, this was a relatively small trial, 300 men, we will need much bigger trials involving thousands looking at the benefits and the risks, but the direction of travel is clear, i think we are one day going to have some kind of mri prostate cancer screening programme, it needs to be a dedicated service, all the mri scanners we have in the

nhs are working flat out, we don't have enough of them, so it would need to be like the breast cancer screening programme which is x—ray mammography, a dedicated service, that will cost a lot of money to set up. i have had one of these ten minute scans, for the patient they are simple, you just lie down on this flatbed, your prostate is scanned, it is non—invasive and the key thing is it will pick up cancers earlier, early diagnosis is the key, it would lead to many more cures. a rescue operation is under way in pakistan, as eight people are trapped inside a cable car that is dangling above a ravine, after some cables snapped, in the north of the country. six children are on board. 0ur correspondentjon donnison is following this developing story. 900 feet up and hanging by a thread. as a military helicopter moves in. from the hillside, a crowd can see just how dangerous the rescue

operation will be. 0fficials just how dangerous the rescue operation will be. officials say six children and two teachers are stuck inside the cable car. they had been on their way to school when at least one cable snapped, leaving them hanging. after several hours a commando is winched down to try and make contact. before any rescue can take place, first, they have to assess the risk. forfriends take place, first, they have to assess the risk. for friends and family watching on, it is a terrifying wait. among them, a fellow teacher who has witnessed it all. and strong winds are reported to be making further rescue attempts difficult. with night forjust a few hours away, one can only imagine what the children trapped inside are

going through. jon donnison, bbc news. the number of people in scotland who died due to drug abuse has fallen to its lowest level for five years, although it remains the worst drug death rate in europe. in 2022, 1,051 people died of drug misuse in scotland, a fall of 279 deaths on the previous year. the figures follow years of record—high totals in scotland, as our correspondent james shaw reports. increasing the availability of the drug treatment naloxone has been a big part of the scottish government's efforts to reduce drug deaths. its use can prevent people who have overdosed from dying. this street team is on the lookout for users who might be at risk. the long—running tragedy of drug deaths in scotland has been years in the making and will not be turned around easily. but this could be an inflection point, a moment when the number

of deaths every year might be starting to fall. this morning, scotland's drug policy minister visited a vintage vehicle business which employs recovering users. i do welcome the reduction that we've seen this year, but that doesn't mean that i don't recognise the scale of the issue that's still in front of us, and that's why it's really important that i remain focused on making sure that we get people into the treatment that works best for them. the scottish government's critics argue that it hasn't got the right set of policies on drugs. i don't think anyone can be celebrating these figures, and i hope the scottish government aren't trying to celebrate when we still have 1,051 lives lost in 2022 because of drugs. but there is no doubt these figures represent an improvement on past years. the number of users who died in 2022 was 1,051, which is 279 less than the year before.

it follows a small drop in 2021, so it might be the start of a downward trend. and it is the biggest decline in deaths since the late 1990s. in this tree, we have the needle... an enhanced drug treatment centre in the east end of glasgow allows users to get access to clean heroin, meaning there is less chance of overdosing or getting infected by dirty needles. agencies who work with users say progress is being made, but particular groups are still more at risk than others. if you come from a deprived area in scotland, you're 16 times more likely to die from drug misuse deaths than someone who lives in more affluent areas. so you can see that there's a real problem and an issue, in terms of deprivation. scottish ministers will be relieved that the year—on—year increases in drug deaths have stopped — at least, for now — but thousands of users are still at risk of serious harm, or death.

two things to add to that, first of all, what happens to the scottish government policy of wanting to do criminal personal possession of drugs? critics might say your politics seem to be —— your policy seem to be working, there is no need for this. seem to be working, there is no need forthis. secondly, seem to be working, there is no need for this. secondly, a looming threat, you could describe it as, the possibility that synthetic opioids could be coming into scotland from abroad. they work like heroin but they are much, much stronger and that increases the risk of overdosing. so, it is certainly true that there has been an improvement in the picture in scotland but it is also the case that scotland's problematic relationship with drugs is not over, is not going to end anytime soon.

james, thank you very much. countries around the mediterranean are bracing themselves for another heatwave over the next few days. in greece, wildfires are already burning out of control in the north. two people have been killed and patients have been evacuated from hospitals as a precautionary measure. authorities say they expect the exceptionally strong winds and high temperatures to spread the fires. in western canada, troops have been deployed to fight more then a thousand blazes, which cover an area the size of greece. 50,000 people have been evacuated. in the us state of washington, too, wildfires have broken out, destroying homes and claiming two lives. and president biden has travelled to the devastated hawaiian island of maui, where he paid tribute to the remarkable resilience of the survivors of the recent wildfires. peter bowes reports. almost two weeks after wildfires swept through these hawaiian swept through this hawaiian

island, a scene of utter devastation to greet the president. after a helicopter tour of the burnt—out areas, mr biden and the first lady were introduced to some of the victims and saw for themselves what's left of the old city of lahaina. the president has been criticised for his and the federal government's response to the disaster. some local people have said it has been inadequate and uncoordinated. but mr biden appeared to be visibly moved by the scale of the tragedy and promised long—term support for the island. we're focused on what's next. that's rebuilding long—term, rebuilding for long—term. and doing it together, to help get us back on our feet, to rebuild the way we want to rebuild. by making sure your voices are heard, by respecting your traditions, by understanding the deep history and meaning of this sacred ground. and establishing your community, not to change its character, but to re—establish it. the president was speaking near a historic banyan tree which was damaged

but survived the fires. today, it's burned, but it's still standing. the tree has survived for a reason. i believe it's a powerful, a very powerful symbol of what we can and will do to get through this crisis. and for this, for as long as it takes, we're going to be with you, the whole country will be with you. this was a visit for hugs, empathy and a promise not to forget. but for this island, there's a long road to recovery ahead. the hawaiian authorities have said it could be months, even years, before the remains of all the victims are identified, and 850 people are still unaccounted for. peter bowes, bbc news. the time is 13:14. our top story this afternoon... new hope in the battle against prostate cancer, as a study suggests a short mri scan could be used to screen patients. and coming up... the government's gambit — a half—a—million—pound package is announced to encourage

children to learn chess. coming up on bbc news — england's lionesses and the victorious spain team arrive home from the women's world cup, with wild celebrations in madrid as the new world champion show off as the new world champions show off the trophy in the spanish capital. the ukrainian army has been hit with allegations of corruption in its recruitment process which defence officials have described as "unacceptable and shameful". president zelensky recently sacked every regional recruitment head after officials were accused of taking bribes and intimidation. and as our ukraine correspondent james waterhouse reports, the stakes for would—be soldiers couldn't be higher. it's ok to be scared. gunfire and shouting this is the latest

messaging campaign from ukraine's military. it wants people to give their details so they can be called on if needed. but what if they don't want to? translation: the system is very outdated. _ igor, not his real name, is one of them. he's not happy with how the army finds its soldiers. translation: it's like soviet times. recruiters using these methods now is unacceptable. _ mobilisation is why most men under 60 can't leave ukraine. here, drafting officers raid an arcade in the kyiv region. they hand out notices ordering them to sign up. russia's invasion means ukraine is constantly trying to replace soldiers. but with tens of thousands killed and even more injured or exhausted, the demand is not being met with just volunteers. but there are big questions over

how it calls men up. officials have been accused of intimidation and helping some escape the country for cash. there are exemptions including poor health, but not forjust not wanting to fight. igor watched his father suffer with mental health issues after serving in afghanistan with the soviet army. translation: each | situation is individual. the fact it's written _ in the constitution that all male citizens must fight is in my opinion not in line with today's values. - this is clearly a sensitive subject. we've been refused interviews, access with drafting officers, so we're going to go to them. at the unveiling of the defence ministry's latest information campaign, an admission of problems which need fixing. i understand that people will be afraid of fighting on the front line, but i put it to you that they are also afraid of a recruitment system that has been accused of corruption, of not always

following the law. do you understand why people don't always trust the system? translation: corruption in the recruitment - centres is unacceptable and shameful. - but we should not forget that behind all that outrage, - which is completely fair, there - are two components of our victory, weapons and people, _ and the mobilisation process is what provides that. in an abandoned kyiv summer camp, civilians are trained in combat. the guns and grenades might be pretend, but there is a hope that people like anton will volunteer for the real thing. are you scared about that idea? of course. as every person, i'm scared. i am scared to hell. there is no chance i will be sitting here in kyiv, if this situation is worse.

the ukraine of today is fighting for its tomorrow. a country united by wanting to survive. but also grappling with the fact that the battlefield is not for everyone. james waterhouse, bbc news, kyiv. a senior doctor who was one of the first to raise concerns about the actions of murderer lucy letby has said nhs managers should be regulated in a similar way to doctors and nurses. dr stephen brearey was the lead consultant on the neonatal ward where she killed seven babies. yesterday lucy letby was handed a whole life sentence. live now to our health correspondent dominic hughes, lots of questions being raised about the regulation of nhs managers? yes, has been a big focus in recent

days, maryam, about the role of those managers at the countess of chester who are reportedly —— who have reportedly ignored the warnings from the senior doctors regarding lucy letby, we heard from the lead consultant there, dr stephen brearey, who said there is no apparent accountability for those managers, he said that when they tried to raise those concerns, the doctors felt like they were under attack, their lives were made very, very difficult. this is in fact a very difficult. this is in fact a very common complaint from whistleblower is within the nhs, when they try to raise legitimate concerns about patient safety, all too often whistleblower say their lives are made very difficult at big cost to their careers, and it is bound to be i think a big focus for the inquiry that the government has just announced. bosses at some of the uk's largest companies have seen a big jump in their salaries, at a time when many employees saw their pay packets

outstripped by inflation. chief executive officers forfirms on the ftse 100 — the index of the uk's largest publicly listed companies — saw their pay surge by 16% last year. it went up on average from £3.38 million in 2021 to £3.91 million in 2022. that's an average pay rise of around £500,000. it means they currently earn 118 times what the median uk full—time worker earns. world leaders have started arriving injohannesburg for a meeting of the group known as brics — brazil, russia, india, china and south africa. russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov will represent president vladimir putin who is attending virtually due to a threat of arrest for alleged war crimes. our correspondent nomsa maseko is live injohannesburg, nomsa, what is on the agenda for this summit?

well, there are a lot of things that are going to be discussed over the three days of this summit, but top of the agenda is the possible expansion of the brics bloc. there are at least 22 countries that have shown interest that want to be part of brics, however, there are members of brics, however, there are members of brics, however, there are members of brics who are not supporting this view of the expansion, particularly brazil, but as you can imagine, president vladimir putin of russia is going to be speaking here tomorrow via video link and he is expected to speak in support of the expansion of the brics bloc and another thing which will be spoken thatis another thing which will be spoken that is a possible use of a single currency for the countries that are members of the brics bloc and also to lessen the use of the us dollar and american's international trade influence. ., ., ~ and american's international trade influence. ., ., , influence. nomsa, thank you very much indeed. _
