�* in which climate this is a tragedy in which climate and capacity have collided. the former spanish football federation president — luis rubiales — is in court in madrid to decide whether he should face trial for sexual assault. hello, i'm lucy hockings, welcome to bbc news now, three hours of fast—moving news, interviews and reaction. the united nations say there is an urgent need for shelter, food and primary medical care in the areas in libya destroyed by some because like blood. the number of people who died in the city of derna has risen to 11,000. that is according to the red crescent. that figure is expected to grow as the recovery effort continues and more bodies are retrieved from the mud. officials estimate that

about 30,000 people have been left homeless. the united nation's emergency relief co—ordinator, martin griffiths, said the extent of the catastrophe was still unclear but he said it was a stark reminder of the death and destruction climate change is causing. one which is appalling, shocking and i think unimaginable, actually, in its consequences. i've heard there are speculations that up to 20,000 are dead, 4000 deaths registered at the moment. in libya where access to derna is still so difficult where there is a compounded problem of the dams breaking and storms breaking, this is a tragedy in which climate and capacity has collided to cause this terrible tragedy. 0ur correspondent anna foster is in benghazi. she gave us this update

on aid reaching people in the affected areas, and about the fears that the death toll could reach 20,000. there are real concerns for the survivors, the people who are battling against the elements. things like clean water and medical care are not available, the world health organisation has described the situation as unprecedented because it is so very difficult to get aid into those parts of eastern libya where it is so desperately needed. it is difficult to even enter the country in the first place and that is why we are not seeing the usual heavy flow of aid that would come in after a natural disaster like this but also it is very difficult logistically to try and get that aid from here in benghazi, where the airport is, across to derna. there was supposed to be seven different entry points to that city and the suggestion is only one of them is now still operating. it really gives you a sense

of how difficult things are for the aid workers, for the people who survived this and we are hearing for example from the mayor of derna. he says the death toll could rise to around 20,000 people. this number is increasing day after day and it is difficult to work out still the situation there. if you think that such a large percentage of the population has been wiped out here, it is really difficultjust to try and get a sense of what is happening there on the ground in derna. we know the aid is not sufficient and we know international ngos find it difficult to operate in that area. we continue to watch the situation in derna. we continue to follow this story and really to work out how those survivors are going to cope in those elements over the next few days and weeks.

live now to aml barghuti from unicef libya, she joins us from tripoli. what are you hearing from derna and what of the immediate needs on the ground for children? we what of the immediate needs on the ground for children?— what of the immediate needs on the ground for children? we have done an initial assessment _ ground for children? we have done an initial assessment in _ ground for children? we have done an initial assessment in the _ ground for children? we have done an initial assessment in the first - initial assessment in the first couple of days. what children and also people are in desperate need of also people are in desperate need of a first of all shelter, safe drinking water, medical assistance. those are the top priorities because we are hearing about 30,000 displaced and also 5000 displaced, from other cities affected by the storm. there are also some death tolls and display interesting people and they are trying to receive some of them out. for the situation now,

our field officers are of them out. for the situation now, ourfield officers are now in derna from yesterday, today and also tomorrow to do more in—depth assessment. we have some reports that say from our unicef colleagues in derna, three schools are destroyed, four are flooded, derna also has more schools that are not affected and four of them are used as shelters. affected and four of them are used as sheltere— affected and four of them are used as shelters— as shelters. there is a huge worry at the moment _ as shelters. there is a huge worry at the moment about _ as shelters. there is a huge worry at the moment about things - as shelters. there is a huge worry at the moment about things like l at the moment about things like diseases spreading, even the fact thatis diseases spreading, even the fact that is safe water. if we can take a city, one of the cities, derna, that is being affected, is there even safe drinking water they? we are

six years old. thank you forjoining us from tripoli, highlighting - six years old. thank you forjoining us from tripoli, highlighting some | us from tripoli, highlighting some of the worries particularly in the east of the country. we will return to libya throughout the day and continue to update you, fears the death toll will continue to rise. here the government has agreed to provide up to half £1 billion to tata steel to update the site in port talbot and wales. the money will be put towards new electric arc furnaces which will help the site move towards becoming carbon neutral. the company has warned there will be a transition period at there will be a transition period at the plant which directly employs about 3000 staff. union site that will mean hundreds ofjobs being lost. 0ur wales correspondent thomas morgan is in port talbot. any morgan is in port talbot. any information _ morgan is in port talbot. any information from _ morgan is in port talbot. in; information from what i morgan is in port talbot. jifuy information from what i have seen there is nothing about the impact on jobs. it seems to be a transition rate amount of money that will be put into this site here, 500 mine from uk government, you're talking about 7.5 million from tata steel.

those reports in the media seem to be bang on, for what has come out now in this proposal. nothing about jobs. it does say it will be one electric arc furnace. you have two blast furnaces here, at one stage it was capable of producing around five megatons, but they are down to about three. this electric arc furnace, the guess is it would produce around three, so still less fun for. undoubtedly it will have a knock—on effect on jobs. undoubtedly it will have a knock—on effect onjobs. how undoubtedly it will have a knock—on effect on jobs. how many we are not sure but i have spoken to several steelworkers here this morning over the course of a few days that now the course of a few days that now the people that work on the heavy industry, blast furnace line, the coke department on the centreline the blast furnace, 1500 people, you need only 10% of that to work that part, an electric arc furnace. if you can't create more different types of steel it has a massive impact on the worst online in

different parts of south wales and across the country as well. live now to stephen kinnock, mp, and the shadow ministerfor live now to stephen kinnock, mp, and the shadow minister for immigration. good to see you. what does this announcement mean forjobs? it is announcement mean for “obs? it is ve announcement mean forjobs? it 3 very disappointing because by putting all of their eggs into the electric arc furnace basket, rather than also looking at other technologies like hydrogen, direct reduced, carbon capture storage, they have essentially said we will cut off a large part of the order book and also not really built for the future in terms of embracing all of the new demand for new types of steel that could be coming down the tracks. this is partly because they have completely failed to consult the trade unions and the workforce i think could have provided a very helpful input to these talks so that we could have secured a much more strategic deal for the long term rather than this short—term quick

fix which i am very concerned is not going to seize the opportunities that we have going forward. any that we have going forward. any indications _ that we have going forward. any indications of _ that we have going forward. any indications of the numbers and how many people today might be learning they could be out of a job? in w; they could be out of a “ob? in my oinion they could be out of a “ob? in my opinion t they could be out of a “ob? in my opinion job h they could be out of a “ob? in my opinion one job loss _ they could be out of a job? in my opinion one job loss is _ they could be out of a job? in my opinion one job loss is one - they could be out of a job? in my opinion one job loss is one too i opinion one job loss is one too many. there was a way of managing this change so that it was just and that it kept the current order book whilst also building for the future, thus ensuring that the jobs stay where they need to be, here in port talbot and across the other works that tata steel have across the uk. so it looks now likely will be job losses. i am not entirely clear, i am seeing the detail of the proposals yet but as i say, in my view onejob proposals yet but as i say, in my view one job losses one too many because there was another way of doing this which would have ensured that over a period of time we would have made that change to green

steel, green are better ways of reducing the steel, but with new technology is ready for the green industrial revolution. what technology is ready for the green industrial revolution.— technology is ready for the green industrial revolution. what do you sa when industrial revolution. what do you say when the _ industrial revolution. what do you say when the government - industrial revolution. what do you say when the government says i industrial revolution. what do you | say when the government says this industrial revolution. what do you - say when the government says this is a transformational investment and it will drive long—term green growth ultimately that would be creating new green jobs? mi ultimately that would be creating new green jobs?— ultimately that would be creating new green jobs? new green “obs? all investment in our steel new green jobs? all investment in our steel industry _ new green jobs? all investment in our steel industry is _ new green jobs? all investment in our steel industry is welcome - new green jobs? all investment in our steel industry is welcome but| new green jobs? all investment in i our steel industry is welcome but we have been looking at 13 years of a government sitting on its hands failing to help with energy costs, to have a proper procurement strategy, and dragging theirfeet on these talks, they have been going on three years. meanwhile in the us, you have the inflation reduction act, the german government and french government, the spanish government making huge investments in their steel industry so i am very concerned that we in the uk are allowing our manufacturing sector to be left behind while other countries are forging ahead. labour has a £3 billion clean steel fund which would

be looking at a long—term mission for transforming our steel industry rather than the short—term sticking plaster solution is and that this level of ambition we really need if we are going to of the future and have that modern manufacturing renaissance our country so badly needs a. �* , , ., needs a. let's listen to the business — needs a. let's listen to the business secretary - needs a. let's listen to the business secretary kemi . needs a. let's listen to the - business secretary kemi badenoch needs a. let's listen to the _ business secretary kemi badenoch who has just been speaking to journalists about the deal. this hasjust been speaking to journalists about the deal. this is is a planet _ journalists about the deal. this is is a planet has — journalists about the deal. this is is a planet has been _ journalists about the deal. this is is a planet has been several- journalists about the deal. this is | is a planet has been several years the making. we are operating on a global— the making. we are operating on a global environment and if you look at what _ global environment and if you look at what has been happening with steel_ at what has been happening with steel across the world and look at the oversupply from china, the steel arrangements the eu as well as the us want_ arrangements the eu as well as the us went to — arrangements the eu as well as the us want to put in place everybody is doing _ us want to put in place everybody is doing something to make sure they have capacity and they are resilient. we want to continue to see steel—making in the uk. something needs to be done and this is the _ something needs to be done and this is the right— something needs to be done and this is the right plan and we as a government are very proud of it and very happy— government are very proud of it and very happy to work for tata steel to come _ very happy to work for tata steel to come to— very happy to work for tata steel to come to the — very happy to work for tata steel to come to the conclusion. did very happy to work for tata steel to come to the conclusion.— very happy to work for tata steel to come to the conclusion. did you hear that, what would _ come to the conclusion. did you hear

some other stories making the news. the aslef train drivers union has announced two more days of strike action — on the 30th september and the lith of october. it's part of their long—running dispute over pay. the dates coincide with the conservative party conference in manchester. the action will affect i6 rail companies. wales is to become the first uk nation to adopt a 20 mph to speed limit in built—up areas. the new limit in built—up areas. the new limit will come into force on sunday covering about one third of the roads in wales. drivers have been warned not to rely on satnav speed limits because updates might not be immediate. and the number of butterflies in the uk has risen to its highest level since 2019 according to conservationists. the butterfly conservation wildlife charity recorded more than 1.5 million butterflies and day flying moths between july and august, researchers say they may have benefited from the wetter weather. good news for many who enjoy

butterflies in their garden. the numbers have risen to the highest level since 2019. you are alive with bbc news. some breaking news now here. the prime minister rishi sunak announcing the american xl bully dog will be banned in the uk by the end of the air. this comes after a recent spate of attacks that announcement coming from mr sunak at tenneco. more on this story shortly. the former head of spain's football federation... the former head of spain's football federation, luis rubiales, is in court in madrid for an initial hearing, which will decide whether he should face trial for sexual assault. it stems from the kiss on the lips he gave the spanish striker, jenni hermoso, after herfootball team won the women's world cup last month. the incident triggered protests over sexism in spanish sport, and wider society. mr rubio resigned on sunday following weeks of pressure but

despite his departure the top spanish women players are continuing their boycott of the national team. they are demanding more changes in the sport's leadership. what has happened in court today? iji�*i rubio let what has happened in court today? m rubio let court a short while ago after his hearing. he didn't speak to the media at all. what we have heard is he spoke to the judges investigating this case saying he denies any wrongdoing. something he has done throughout this affair. he said it is the case that he gave jenni hermoso was completely consensual, he did nothing wrong when he kissed her and essentially he is innocent. we also know the prosecutor in this case during this hearing asked the judge to issue a restraining order against mr rubiales to keep him at least 500 metres away from jenni hermoso at all times for the foreseeable

future. and also requested that mr rubiales be made to attend this court, the national court every two weeks. those are requests of the prosecutor stop we will have to wait now to see how the judge handling this case response to those requests. if he is going to ask for more testimonies from those involved, and then this case could potentially go to trial.— potentially go to trial. thank you for that update _ potentially go to trial. thank you for that update from _ potentially go to trial. thank you for that update from madrid. - live now to semra hunter, football broadcastjournalist and expert on women's football. we see all the camera crews there in madrid so still lots of attention on the court but is this still a story everyone is talking about in spain? it is. a lot of people are watching with a lot of attention and curiosity to see how this plays out because it could bring about monumental shift in wider society as well if in fact he has found guilty and subsequently does face some very serious consequences. this comes as

a result of the new law that was put into place last year and it would be the first time in such a major scale but something like this could actually happen in terms of somebody found guilty of a crime as it relates to sexual aggression. 0bviously that will come in due course as we will see if it does in fact go to try later on but i think it is really interesting how this is all playing out especially today, in peril to all this there is other news going on as it relates to the women spanish national team. in theory the new coach is supposed to be out 4pm local time here in spain announcing the squad list with its games in the nations league but this morning it has been reported that 23 world cup winners along with those other past and previous and current players as well, 81 players in total are going to continue to go on strike stop they are not going to heed the call the new coach and they are not going to come back until further structural changes are put into place. we don't actually know

what is going to happen in terms of who she will be going up, fringe players, players not involved in the controversy is to begin with or are they not going to call of anybody at all and maybe they think throughout the day they can try to convince his players. it is a very rapidly evolving situation here and it very much has the attention of notjust the football fan here in spain but a lot of people across wider society as well because there is so much a link between the culture and society as well as what is happening in the football world.— football world. thank you for “oinin football world. thank you for joining us- — morocco's government says it will rebuild about fifty—thousand homes damaged by last week's earthquake. authorities say they'll provide more than 13—thousand—dollars for each home that was completedly destroyed and now needs reconstruction. they'll also offer 8,000 for those partially damaged. residents will meanwhile be given temporary shelters equipped to withstand cold weather, and each household will receive a grant of 3000 dollars. the exact number of people left homeless is still not known. nearly 3000 people have

god, of faith and that helps them profoundly and they also have an intense sense of community, every single day, and in times like this you just see it coming to the fore. thank you forjoining us. more than 10,000 employees at three of america's biggest car makers have gone on strike, after last—minute talks over pay and conditions failed to produce an agreement. the unions want a 40% wage increase over the next four years but car—makers have responded with pay offers ranging from 17.5% to 20%. cbs news correspondent jarred hill is in new york. how unusual is this kind of strike action in terms of its scale? this is the first _ action in terms of its scale? this is the first time _ action in terms of its scale? this is the first time that _ action in terms of its scale? this is the first time that we - action in terms of its scale? ti 3 is the first time that we have seen her this autoworkers union do this type of strike. when they are struggling against all three of the major american auto—makers at the same time. they are not striking

across the board with all 150,000 members. they are saying this is a strategic strike at this point targeting really specifically three plants that are in the upper midwest region that are close to a lot of these are headquartered. can you ive us a these are headquartered. can you give us a bit _ these are headquartered. can you give us a bit more _ these are headquartered. can you give us a bit more background, i these are headquartered. can you i give us a bit more background, what is the dispute about? shot give us a bit more background, what is the dispute about?— is the dispute about? at the court this is not only _ is the dispute about? at the court this is not only about _ is the dispute about? at the court this is not only about the - is the dispute about? at the court this is not only about the pay - is the dispute about? at the court| this is not only about the pay raise itself but the unions saying they also want to make an effort to get back some of the concessions they gave up back in 2008 when these car companies were on the verge of going under. they gave some concessions up and some perks that somebody called them, and that was an effort to make sure these companies continue running. they are saying now this contract is up they would like to get some of that back and in some cases and then some. as we have seen so far these auto—makers have said they are willing to increase the pay

but there are some of these things are not willing go back on. that includes this four day work week for 40 includes this four day work week for a0 hours of pay. 0n includes this four day work week for a0 hours of pay. on top of that they are not interested in getting back into the business of some of the pensions for hourly employees so that could potentially be the sticking points that could make this last longer. sticking points that could make this last loner. ~ ., ., sticking points that could make this last loner. ~ . . , ., , last longer. what are the estimates at the moment _ last longer. what are the estimates at the moment as _ last longer. what are the estimates at the moment as the _ last longer. what are the estimates at the moment as the kind - last longer. what are the estimates at the moment as the kind of- at the moment as the kind of disruption this could cause? mi disruption this could cause? all this disruption this could cause? fill this really depends on how long this lasts for and we don't know yet but there are some estimates that if this goes on even 10 days the strike could end up costing about $5 billion worth of losses to the industry. there are some estimates this could end up taking a hit of about 0.3% of the us gdp because this sector is so big. but all of this sector is so big. but all of this is yet to be seen exactly what kind of an impact this has because we don't know how long this will last for and we don't know how wide

this strike will go. at this point only three of these plants are on strike but this could potentially expand if those negotiations continue to break down. good to see ou. continue to break down. good to see yon thank — continue to break down. good to see yon thank yon _ continue to break down. good to see you. thank you. stay _ continue to break down. good to see you. thank you. stay with _ continue to break down. good to see you. thank you. stay with us - continue to break down. good to see you. thank you. stay with us on - continue to break down. good to see you. thank you. stay with us on bbc| you. thank you. stay with us on bbc news. we would be taking you back wiped 0livia very shortly. the death toll continues to climb there after the devastating flooding. it is 11,000 now but the mayor of dharna says it could go higher. the relief efforts are under way but lots of logistical challenges. we are taking you live there in a moment. hello. it's another day of contrasts in the weather north to south across the uk. we've got warmth and humidity spilling in from the south, so lots of warm sunshine for parts of england and wales. but there is some rain in the forecast too. much fresher conditions further north as well. all down to the fact that we've got

this waving weather front. you can see on the satellite image the swathes of cloud here. it's a warm frontjust edging its way very slowly north, bringing some rain but also dividing much cooler, fresher air across the north to this humid air that's piling its way in from the south. that's going to mean temperatures again on the rise today and tomorrow at least before things turn more unsettled by sunday. but back to today. here is the slow—moving band of rain affecting scottish borders, parts of northumberland for a time, county down and into the isle of man as well. only 13 or 1a to the north of that rain band, but in the south, in the sunshine, 2a, 25 degrees and feeling very pleasant. got some high cloud bubbling up and you will notice the humidity increasing here as well. through this evening and tonight, the band of cloud and rain becomes a little more fragmented and showery in nature and there will also be some heavy showers working into the channel islands, the south—west of england, where you can hear the odd rumble of thunder. largely mild, a little bit murky elsewhere. a few mist and fog patches forming

but fresher in the north, single figures under those clearer skies. now, through saturday, we still have got the band of rain and cloud. it won't be as heavy or persistent as it will be today. starting to move its way further south. an improvement for parts of scotland and northern ireland too. relatively cool 15 or 16 degrees but again down towards the south in that sunshine, highs up to about 26, possibly 27 degrees. it's all change into sunday as we see thunderstorms moving in from the south. so some heavy downpours, blustery winds with some of these heavy showers and they become quite extensive, i think, across much of england, wales, perhaps northern ireland. a little bit drier across the north of scotland but those temperatures back into mid to high teens, perhaps low 20s. heading into monday, we have this more persistent band of rain, this front tracking its way slowly eastwards. we will still hold onto some warmth and humidity in the south but we are looking at fresher conditions moving in from the west and an unsettled picture by monday, some blustery showers and that's going to be the story through much of the week. the next few days certainly very warm in the south, a thundery breakdown on sunday,

unsettled into next week.
