kissed her. later on during a live stream, she said she didn't enjoy it. after a fierce backlash, rubiales finally apologises, he says, i made a mistake, and adds, sorry for those who were offended. and thatis those who were offended. and that is not enough, on the 24th of august, the football governing body fifa opened disciplinary proceedings against him in order to examine his actions. on the 25th and next day, luis rubiales said the kiss was consensual. this is what else he had to say. translation: i is what else he had to say. translation:— is what else he had to say. translation: ., , translation: i will not resign, i will not resign. _ translation: i will not resign, i will not resign. i _ translation: i will not resign, i will not resign. i will— translation: i will not resign, i will not resign. i will not - i will not resign. i will not resign. and yet that same day, spain is that government opened legal proceedings to suspend him. �* , , legal proceedings to suspend him. �* ,, , legal proceedings to suspend him. ,, him. and spent exactly a sport that he wants _ him. and spent exactly a sport that he wants is _ him. and spent exactly a sport that he wants is to _ him. and spent exactly a sport that he wants is to be - him. and spent exactly a sport that he wants is to be spanish| that he wants is to be spanish had brought me to movement. the player in question, jenni hermoso, says at no time with his kiss ever consensual and yet the spanish football

federation doesn't take kindly to her words, they accuse her of lying and threatening legal action. and yet she has a lot of support, dozens of players, including all 23 players who attended the women's world cup say they will not play for the women's team until ruby alice is removed. now, the next day, fifa announces it is provisionally suspending mr rubiales pending disciplinary proceedings against him. that same day, the head coach for the women's team criticises him breaking with ruby alice and thatis breaking with ruby alice and that is as his entire coaching staff resigned in protest. the next day, the spanish football federation announces an internal investigation is under way, and that they are —— their sexual violence protocol has now been activated. that is what takes us to the latest developments. where mr ruby alice's own mother says she is on hunger strike in a church in protest against the man had against him in her own words, and spain's prosecutors say a

preliminary investigation is under way in order to ascertain whether a crime of sexual assault has taken place. hundreds of flights into and out of the uk were cancelled on monday after a technical glitch hit air traffic control. the problem was fixed after a few hours but it could now take several days to clear a backlog of flights that's built up, leaving passengers stranded. here's our transport correspondent, katy austin. one of the busiest days of the summer for flights descended into chaos for thousands of passengers, many on their way back from holidays. need to fly at 11 a.m. this morning. it's now ii:00pm and we've just been told that our flights been cancelled. i don't think there's any flights back to london, nothing that we've seen. so we're getting a very to barcelona tomorrow morning and then hotel tomorrow night in barcelona and flying out of barcelona on wednesday morning. just not being given. any information as to whether or not we're even flying today. i there's been flights before us

with other airlines that - have been cancelled. we're really keeping our. fingers crossed that we can actually get home tonight. others waiting to take off from the uk like these people at belfast. keep changing it smartly. never seen anything like this before. i'll keep an eye on it. we were meant to leave on eight and i will be getting there at 4:00 in the morning. air traffic control services provider nats said a technical issue meant it was having to input flight plans manually. that takes longer, so it had to restrict how many flights could operate. the result, hundreds of delays and cancellations into and out of the uk. the issue was fixed by mid—afternoon, but experts say disruption could last for days. a lot of airlines will have to now look at where they've got their aircraft. they won't be in the place they're supposed to be. they've got to replan their schedules. they'll have crews also displaced and a lot of those crews will be

beyond their allowable working because the problem was outside airlines control customers won't be entitled to compensation, but they have the right to either a refund or an alternative flight. it is worth noting, though, that a lot of people - are needing to be re—routed at the moment. _ so you might have to be patient if you're stuck. for a really long time. you should be getting food or drink. - if you're stuck overnight, - the airlines should be paying for accommodation for you. passengers are being told to check the status of their flight before heading to the airport, and they will now be questions asked about how today's outage could have happened. katie austin, bbc news. earlier i spoke to clementine mitchell — whose daughter is stranded in france. she explained the difficult situation the family found itself in. she'd been spending four days

was clementine _ people home at the moment. that was clementine mitchell speaking to me a little earlier. from midnight tonight, london's controversial ulta low emission zone or ulez, will expand from an area covering the city centre, to the whole of the capital. it'll become the world's largest ultra low zone, and means owners of the most polluting vehicles, will have to pay £12.50 a day, while driving in the area. around 90% of cars are compliant and won't be affected by the charge. here's helena wilkinson. getting rid of air pollution is a priority for cities across the uk. in many, air pollution far exceeds limits recommended by the world health organization. it's schemes like the expansion of the ultra low emission zone in london which aim to improve air quality. this green area shows the current zone in central london, and this is what it will look like from tomorrow. this is eating in west london, and i'm on the boundary of the current ultra low emission

zone. anyone heading in that direction across the junction into central london has to pay £12.50 if their vehicle doesn't meet the required emissions standards. from midnight, that boundary will be significantly expanded to cover all 32 london boroughs. expanding the zone has proved divisive. we've been breaching legal limits for more than 12 years now for a toxic gas, nitrogen dioxide. and these pollutions have been shown to stunt children's lungs in the city, and also cause huge illnesses for people throughout their lives. i represent some of the smallest builders. these are, you know, they could be employing one person to a few. and the reality is these businesses are very dependent on money coming into their business and going out, and theyjust don't have huge reserves to be able to buy new fleets of vans. back in west london, people

are preparing for the change. people are dying, as well, from the pollution, - so that's a good thing, if they stop it. - but i don't think a loti of the people that live in this sort of area - are going to appreciate paying £12.50. well, ijust feel like it's any way for the government to get money out of us these days, isn't it? you just have to sort of pay to breathe in london. generally, petrol cars first registered after 2005 and diesel cars after september 2015 are compliant. for those that aren't, the charge takes effect from midnight. helena wilkinson, bbc news. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news. it's very different to where it

once was. but what is driving this change? join me for last of albania �*s sworn versions. join me for last of albania �*s sworn versions. you're live with bbc news. a date has been set for the trial of former us president donald trump on charges of trying to overturn the result of the 2020 presidential election. it will be the 4th of march,

2024 — in washington dc. that's one day before super tuesday when more than a dozen states vote in the republican primary to pick a candidate for the 2024 presidential election. mr trump has since said in a social media post that he'll appeal the trial start date — though legal experts say that's not usually possible to do. lawyers for mr trump have alread tried to have a date moved back, as sean dilley in washington explains. donald trump's legal team were hoping to push this back to 2026. they said they were ready to start injanuary next year, but those were unacceptable. seven months would be the appropriate time. the defendant

was entitled to reasonable

this is a very difficult day for us in one sense. because, you would think that america would be much further than it is. what we know though, is that mum and dad and others taught us that when people come together, change can occur. and we must change this trajectory. we will learn one day non—violence or we will place nonexistence. an ornately carved 36 feet tall totem pole is one of the biggest displays at the national museum of scotland. it's set to be returned to canada after nearly a century. indigenous researchers in british columbia say the artefact was originally stolen and sold without the consent of local people. members of canada's nisga'a nation have taken part in a ceremony in edinburgh, to prepare for itsjourney home. katie hunter has the story.

singing. this is a historic moment. people from the nisga'a nation at the national museum of scotland to prepare their totem pole for thejourney home. today was probably one of the most happy days in my life, because i'm really, really emotional right now, and ifeel my ancestral grandmother. the nisga'a people believe this memorial pole is alive with the spirit of their ancestors. they say it was stolen almost a hundred years ago from the mass valley, and sold to what is now national museums scotland. an agreement to return it was reached last december. the totem pole will need to be brought out of the museum through a window in the middle of the night before being flown back to british columbia by the canadian military. i'm really pleased that the pole will be

returning to its home where its spiritual, cultural and historical significance is most keenly felt, and i'm really pleased that we've been able to use our procedure to work with the family to be able to help make this happen. mr willie moore, if you will open our gathering. the nisga'a people say this is a significant moment of reconciliation. they hope the world is watching. katie hunter, bbc news, edinburgh. let's take a look at some other stories in the headlines. a magnitude 7 earthquake struck the bali sea region of indonesia. the quake's epicentre was north of the island of lombok and very deep at 516 km belowthe earth's surface. there were no threats of a tsunami and immediate reports of damage or casualties. but locals posted on social media videos of tremors being felt. ukraine says it has recaptured a village in the southern region of zaporizhzhia —

the netherlands anna holligan has been finding out, they found strength in numbers. there is a chance you've never encountered a redhead. people with this rare redhead gene make up less than 2% of the global population. obviously, it is a mutation, and just so punchy. you only see it maybe see a group of people walking down the street and one of them will be ginger. and that's if you're in scotland or ireland. many redheads have celtic ancestry. a big motivation wasjust to see more people like us and have a sense of community as a redhead, because it can feel isolating when you don't see a lot of people like you. and here, it'sjust so exciting to see everyone with red hair — no matter the shade of colour — come together and celebrate what has made us unique in our own homes and countries.

when you're used to being the odd one out... every time i come here, ifeel a bit better about myself. you know that a lot of gingers do get bullied for having red hair, and it's a shame. it's a real shame. he sings. this event is designed to shift that narrative and empower people like liam, who's found lifelong friends and a sense of belonging. everybody has a similar experience. lots of people were either bullied or people just have confidence issues. there's a lot of things that actually bring people together here, that we have so much in common, even though we're not even from the same country, same continent. it's a feeling that resonates among the 5,000 redheads gathered in tilburg. ijust wanted to be - around a lot of redheads. my family is like, not that many redheads. | my parents, they don'tl have red hair, my sister doesn't have red hair — just me only. -

it's just incredible cos i don't feel alone any more. i feel together, i feel a power or something, something that i felt like i was missing my whole life. anna holligan, bbc news. that's all for now — stay with bbc news. hello there. our final bank holiday weekend of the summer season
