good evening. after the weekend's massive earthquake in morocco, the people of nearby libya have been devastated by another natural catastrophe — this time floods caused by a powerful storm. the death toll is thought to be many thousands, and the red crescent charity says that up to 10,000 people are missing. much of the coastal city of derna is under water, after two dams and four bridges collapsed — it is usually home to around 100,000 people. 0ur correspondent anna foster has this report. a foster has this report. for roefb water that washed everything a for roefb water that washed away everything in its path. the devastation is clear toe see. the death toll is harder to quantify. the red crescent and red cross say as many as 10,000 people are missing. but ina

missing. but in a country without a single functioning government, getting accurate information is hard. libya's been stuck in a political quack mire now for at least eight, nine years and really even though there has been no major outbreak of violence since 2020, sporadic violence since 2020, sporadic violence has taken place, there has been no settlement really to that conflict. this is more thanjust conflict. this is more than just a conflict. this is more thanjust a rising river levels or flooded streets. in derna two dams have been breached, sending water through the city. homes and cars were picked up and carried away by its force. many people spent hours trying to find out if their families were still alive. like nura._ out if their families were still alive. like nura. they have in a sheltered _ alive. like nura. they have in a sheltered place, _ alive. like nura. they have in a sheltered place, there - alive. like nura. they have in a sheltered place, there is- alive. like nura. they have in a sheltered place, there is a - alive. like nura. they have in a - sheltered place, there is a shortage of food, medical aid, they are a shortage of clothes and the situation is not the best but at least they are still alive. i have one aunt who is still missing with

her son, we don't have any news about her, she lives in another different building and we couldn't reach out to her or even get news about her. at this early stage, we still don't know exactly how many people have been killed. the lack of internationally recognised government sources make it difficult to know which details the trust what is crucial trying to work out what has happened on ground and that is what bbc verify have been doing with landmark building like this mosque, some of the videos that have been posted show that torrent of water but we mow where they are and we know they are real because of the mosque, again in this picture, filmed there a different angle you can see the water and you can see that building right in the centre of the shot. when we look at videos like this one that really show some of the destruction, the aftermath of the water that poured through, we can see the rublt in the street, we can see the rublt in the street, we

can see the buildings that have been damaged, but we know where it is, and we know it is real because once again, we can see that mosque. now the authorities need to get hope help to the people who filmed those pictures but the ongoing conflict makes as is to libra difficult and dangerous, and any aid that arrives will be far slower than its december president assad pratt survivors need —— desperate survivors need. meanwhile, an international emergency appeal has been launched for victims of last week's earthquake in morocco more than 2,900 people are now known to have died. the red cross and red crescent hopes to raise more than $100 million to meet immediate needs such as water and shelter. ajudge in pakistan has ruled that five children who travelled from the uk with sara sharif�*s father should be sent to a government facility. the children, who we can now confirm are sara's siblings, were found at the home of their grandfather. sara, who was ten, was found dead at herfamily home

in woking on august ten — a day after her father, step—mother, uncle and the five children left the uk. in a moment we'll be speaking to our correspondent helena wilkinson, who is outside sara's home in woking, but first to our pakistan correspondent caroline davies who is in islamabad for us now:— bring us up—to—date with developments there? so bring us up-to-date with developments there? so another surrisin: developments there? so another surprising development - developments there? so another surprising development today, i developments there? so another surprising development today, in this case, now of course we knew that sara's siblings were taken by police from her grandfather's house, they were were returned on the condition he would have them appear in court today so the authorities could establish who should have custody, the grandfather wanted that custody, the grandfather wanted that custody, the grandfather wanted that custody, the children were moved round between the different courts in a blacked out police vehicle, they were surrounded by armed police, and by local media, we, when we were inside one of the courts we were able to see the children, they

increase in earnings we have seen of 8% plus, because it is higher than the rate of inflation. the government says it is still committed to that, but it is looking at ways of lowering the potential £2 billion a year cost of the policy. but in the longer term, this long—standing policy, that increases the generosity and prioritises the state pension in the public finance, could be up for grabs. the state pension triple lock is not sustainable in the very long—term the pension secretary told the bbc today and labour too didn't commit today and labour too didn't commit to the policy. retire re—s at this garden centre say pensions need to rise it garden centre say pensions need to ris . ., ., ., , ., rise it could go with going up more, an bod rise it could go with going up more, anybody that _ rise it could go with going up more, anybody that is _ rise it could go with going up more, anybody that is reliant _ rise it could go with going up more, anybody that is reliant on _ rise it could go with going up more, anybody that is reliant on a - rise it could go with going up more, anybody that is reliant on a pension| anybody that is reliant on a pension is in trouble. it anybody that is reliant on a pension is in trouble-— is in trouble. it would be better if we all had _ is in trouble. it would be better if we all had money _ is in trouble. it would be better if we all had money going - is in trouble. it would be better if we all had money going up - is in trouble. it would be better if we all had money going up at - is in trouble. it would be better if we all had money going up at thej we all had money going up at the same _ we all had money going up at the same rate. — we all had money going up at the same rate, pensions or salaries. ? the path _ same rate, pensions or salaries. ? the path to— same rate, pensions or salaries. ? the path to normal growth still quite _ the path to normal growth still quite patchy. the economy and inflation — quite patchy. the economy and inflation could go in the wrong direction — inflation could go in the wrong direction in the next few day,

than overall earnings but acknowledging that part of that growth this summer was down to one—off payments and if they tweak it a bit they could save hundreds of millions but critics might say, hang on a minute you are breaking the spirit of the triple lock, then there is the question of the next general election and both labour and the conservatives are not committing to keeping this promise, why? they are in a bind, it is mighty expensive but taking stuff away is really hard as a politician, particularly if you think the other lot might decide to keep out. and don't underestimate the power of the grey vote. 0lder don't underestimate the power of the grey vote. older people are much more likely to vote, so politicians are well aware that you mess with pensioner, at your peril. fik. are well aware that you mess with pensioner, at your peril. 0k. many thanks. pensioner, at your peril. 0k. many thanks- chris _ pensioner, at your peril. 0k. many thanks. chris mason _ pensioner, at your peril. 0k. many thanks. chris mason reporting - chris mason reporting there. female surgeons are being sexually harassed, assaulted and in some cases raped by colleagues, a survey of nhs staff has found. the study�*s authors say

there is a pattern of female trainees being abused by senior male surgeons. the president of the royal college of surgeons said there was "no place" for such behaviour in the nhs. 0ur health correspondent james gallagher has spoken to women who were attacked. the operating theatre. home of life—saving surgery, performed by our brightest minds, and now revealed to be the scene of sexual assault. when i was a junior surgeon, so the person with the least power in the operating theatre, i was assisting a consultant on a case. i guess he'd got a bit sweaty, but turned round and just buried his head right into my breasts, and i realised he was wiping his brow on me. an you just freeze. why is his face in my cleavage? and then, you know, a little while later he turns round and he does exactly the same thing all over again. so i said "excuse me, do you want me to get me you a towel?" and he said "no, this is much more

fun," and it was the smirk, you know, just everything about it. i felt dirty, i felt humiliated. there were four consultants in that room, two registrars, a whole surgical scrub nurse team, and not a single person thought. that that was wrong. that's just rotten. judith's experience was over a decade ago, but this report invited surgeons to share what happened in just the past five years. 1,400 responded. the experience of women surgeons is rarely talked about openly. for the first time, this report reveals the problem. more than 60% were sexually harassed, such as receiving suggestive messages. almost 30% were sexually assaulted by a colleague, including instances of groping. nearly 11% experienced forced physical contact linked to the progression of their careers, the report states men and women surgeons are living a different reality.

female surgeons have had their breasts fondled underneath their scrubs, and in the most serious cases have even been raped by their colleagues. he walked me back to the place i was staying. he just suddenly turned on me and he had sex with me. ifroze, i couldn't, i couldn't stop him. and you were a trainee. yes. and he was a consultant. yes. the next day when i saw him i was barely able to hold myself together. i didn't feel i could make a fuss. i felt like there was a very strong culture ofjust putting up with whatever was done to you. more women choosing surgery as a career and getting into senior positions is helping to drive culture change, but these figures show that sexual assault and harassment are not yesterday's problem. i was shocked when i read the report and i think there will be a sense of embarrassment across the surgical community, to recognise how prevalent sexual misconduct is. has the royal college of surgeons done enough over the years, to regulate its own members'

behaviour? i think all organisations will be looking at what they have done, and i think certainly it is very clear, by the level of sexual misconduct that is going on, they probably haven't done enough. it is now important we come together to make sure that we work together to eliminate this problem, and create a culture of zero tolerance. is surgery a safe place for women? not always. and that is a dreadful. thing to have to admit. james gallagher, bbc news. if you have been affected by sexual abuse or violence, details of help and support are available at bbc.co.uk/actionline, or you can call for free at any time to hear recorded information on 0800 077 077. the time is 6.17. our top story this evening: in libya, catastrophic floods

downing street says it disputes the findings. 0ur environment correspondent jonah fisher reports from sunderland. spills of sanitary products on our beaches. private water companies making both profit and pollution. the outrage about what happens to our sewage is proving very difficult for the government to flush away. this latest sewage headache comes from an organisation that's just been set up post—brexit. it's called the office for environmental protection and it's looking at whether the government and the regulators have been too soft on the water companies and have broken the law by allowing them to spell raw sewage to frequently from overflow pipes like these. storm overflows

yeah, 40% off. i've been coming here since i was little. so it is quite devastating, really. the fact that it is going. but what can you say? it's the end of an era. and then, there is the staff. we can't talk to any of them as they've been advised not to speak whilst the business is being wound down. this shop has been going for nearly 30 years. like many high streets, there are already some boarded—up shops around here. wilko's demise is another blow. especially for the owner of this new shop next door. one by one, all the big chains are closing down. three years or four years before, they closed peacock, now closing wilko. and these people, they bring the customer in the market. if these people are closing down, this area is going to be dead. but some of the gaps are set to be filled. wilko has 400 stores. b&m is buying up to 51 of them and poundland is taking on as many as 71. the boss told me he will prioritise

hiring wilko staff. we take no pleasure in seeing a fellow retailer go through difficult times, what's happened to wilko is a really sad situation indeed. don't confuse that, though, with the state of the high street. we are thriving and we are growing. and this is another opportunity to demonstrate that. and that is a home for some of these wilko colleagues. in these challenging times, it's also survival of the fittest on our high streets, as this 93—year—old family owned business has learned to its cost. emma simpson, bbc news, barking. former wimbledon champion and world number one — simona halep — has been banned forfour years for two doping offences. the 31—year—old romanian had been provisionally suspended since testing positive for a banned drug at last year's us open. she was subsequently charged with other irregularities and both charges have been upheld. halep said she intends to appeal against the decision.

the uk's biggest pub chain is raising its prices — tom curry will miss england's next to world cup rugby matches for his red card on saturday. he faced a disciplinary hearing in paris today and was ruled out of the matches againstjapan this and was ruled out of the matches against japan this sunday and was ruled out of the matches againstjapan this sunday and chile on the 23rd of september. he will be eligible to return for the final group game against samoa. the uk's biggest pub chain is raising its prices — but only in peak times. the group which owns the slug and lettuce, be at one and yates will charge customers more during evenings and weekends in 800 of its venues. dynamic pricing, as it's known, has long been used by hotels and airlines. but as danny savage reports — it's now spilling over into pubs. the ancient city of york, a popular place to be, thanks in part to an abundance of pubs and bars. some, like this one, and the place opposite, are operated by a company called the stonegate group.

they have introduced what is known as dynamic pricing. so what that means is that in a stonegate pub, this could cost you about £4.50 during most of the week, but on a busy friday night or during the day on saturday, it could rise to nearly a fiver for your peak time pint. surely we should be getting rid of dynamic pricing, and so if it wants to creep into our pub industry, good luck, but it won't be creeping into my independent pub. john is a pub landlord who has nothing do with stonegate. he thinks it it's all very strange. i know if my regular customers were sat in the pub and i had been charging £4.20 for a pint and then 10, 20 people walked in and now i'm saying it is £4.50 a pint, those regular customers are not going to be happy. so what do drinkers think, bearing in mind the house rules? i think it's a terrible idea. people budget for a night out, and if the price is going to go up by 30, 40, 50p a pint, it seems ridiculous to milk people who have already had a drink. i think they are probablyjust going to go out for a couple of beers and then go home early,

so it will be detrimental for the pub trade. the stonegate pub group's explanation is that on occasions, pricing may marginally increase in selected pubs and bars, due the increase cost demands on the business, with additional staffing or licensing requirement, such as additional door team members. i think one of things for businesses like stonegate is that the costs of operating their businesses have rocketed, particularly at busy times, and what they're trying to do is make sure that they can continue to maintain the same level of profit for shareholders, but that is really bitter pill for drinkers to take. but it looks like it's a pill some drinkers will have to swallow. we are used to dynamic pricing in so many of our other purchases. is the future going to see more of it in pubs? danny savage, bbc news, york. an american explorer who was trapped more than half a mile underground in a turkish cave for nine days has been brought to safety. more than 150 people were involved

in the effort to rescue mark dickey from the morca cave, which is the third deepest in the country. 0rganisers say it was one of the most complicated underground rescues ever mounted. after his rescue, mr dickey said there were times he doubted if he would live. this is ok, i've got some blood going on here, but it's bacterial, it's like an infection, it's like whatever. then my consciousness started to get hold of are harder to hold onto. this masterpiece by van gogh is at the centre of a remarkable story of theft and recovery. it was stolen in 2020 from a museum in the netherlands, but then three and a half years later, handed back in a pillow and an ikea bag to a dutch art detective — because the criminal underworld decided it was too hot to handle. jon donnison takes up the story. it's amazing what you can pick up at ikea these days.

for art detective arthur brand, it's a big moment. bundled up in the famous blue and yellow bag, a pillowcase and a bit of bubble wrap is the stolen treasure he's been hunting forfor more than three and a half years. hopefully this is it, he says. and it is — vincent van gogh's 1884 masterpiece parsonage garden at nuenen in spring. vincent van gogh. "he's back," he says. "what a day." the work was stolen in 2020 during covid lockdown when a thief used a sledgehammer to smash into the singer laren museum near amsterdam, making off with the painting under his arm. he was arrested a year later and eventuallyjailed, but the painting was never recovered — until now. arthur brand says the piece

was perhaps too well known to be of any value to criminals wanting to try and sell it on. and after three and a half years of trying to track it down, he was contacted by a man who wanted to give it back. it took 1,300 days, but here it is, and i will hand it over in a few moments to the museum director and i think he will be happy. i'm sure he will. the painting, thought to be worth up to £5 million, is expected to be back on display next year. john donnison, bbc news. what a story expecting for a look at the weather. a story of some of its autumn. today we had the last vestiges of some similar and we had the last vestiges of some similarand humidity. more a terminal 14 in the north of
