8:44 pm

8:47 pm
level the become used to? tte: government target we've been hearing since the beginning of 2023 is that they want to have inflation by the end of the year —— half. some organisations say we have been seen 2% inflation reinstated into 2028 and that is on the pessimistic side but heightened inflation is expected to be within the realms of the next couple of years. 50. expected to be within the realms of the next couple of years.— the next couple of years. so, we 'ust need the next couple of years. so, we just need to _ the next couple of years. so, we just need to get _ the next couple of years. so, we just need to get used _ the next couple of years. so, we just need to get used to - just need to get used to it, unfortunately. thank you for explaining that to to us and thank you. it's one of the world's longest running conflicts. in the latest upsurge of fighting, dozens have died with hundreds more injured. now it appears that azerbaijan — which is seeking full control of nagorno—karabakh and the armenians who inhabit part of it have agreed to a ceasefire. these latest pictures show
8:48 pm
around two thousand people being moved to safety. russia — a former power in the region — says it has also offered humanitarian and medical aid.the fighting has been intense — this is video, filmed in stepan—kert — which is the capital of armenian controlled nagorno—karabakh, the sound of shelling can also be heard in the distance. the conflict hasn't been going well for armenia and the government has warned of la rge—scale unrest. this protest took place on tuesday evening outside the government building in the capital, yerevan. the demonstrators say they are angry at the government's handling of the situation. our reporter nicky schiller has been looking at the history of the conflict in nagorno—karabakh. nagorno—karabakh is at the heart of one of the world's longest running conflicts. but where is it? well, as you can see, it is landlocked and lies in the mountainous south caucasus region. the territory is internationally recognised as part of azerbaijan, but many ethnic armenians live there and for decades have wanted
8:49 pm
to be part of neighbouring armenia. now azerbaijan is mainly muslim, armenia, predominantly christian, with different languages and alphabets. now, the two countries were part of the old soviet union, but when that fell apart in the late eighties and early nineties, tensions over nagorno—kara bakh escalated. now, these are pictures from the first karabakh war. it was between 1992 and 94. during the fighting, up to 30,000 people are estimated to have lost their lives. hundreds of thousands fled their homes during the fighting. now, a russian—backed ceasefire was agreed in 94, but it never really addressed the underlying issues. and what followed was a simmering stalemate punctuated by armed clashes. now, over a decade later, in 2008, these russian mediated talks ended in azerbaijan and armenia, signing an agreement aimed at resolving the dispute. but again, that fell apart in 2020, another war broke out as abidjan launched an offensive that recaptured territory around kara bakh.
8:50 pm
but thousands of soldiers, again on both sides, were reported to have been killed in the six weeks of fierce fighting. another truce was agreed and that was to be monitored by russian peacekeepers. they were also to ensure the safe passage of an area known as the latin corridor that connects nagorno—karabakh to armenia. but moscow's attention was diverted by its invasion of ukraine. tensions were once again raised, and for the past nine months, azerbaijan has imposed an effective blockade on that route. on tuesday, the azerbaijani army launched an offensive, and now ethnic armenian forces say they've agreed russian terms for a ceasefire. children across the uk have been speaking about their experience of teenage life, as part of a survey for the bbc. many girls said they experienced sexual harrassment in their day
8:51 pm
to day lives, and didn't feel safe out on the streets on their own. of the two—thousand young people surveyed, just over a fifth of teenage girls, 200 of them, said they'd received unwanted nude pictrues or videos from someone their age. and while 44% of girls said they don't feel said they don't feel safe on the streets, nearly a quarter of teenage boys, 24%, said they also felt that way. and more than a quarter of teenagers polled said they feel anxious all or most of the time; with half saying they feel anxious when they don't have their phone with them. i am joined now by dr kalanit ben—ari — child development expert and psychologist in london. interesting snapshot of teenagers growing up in this country and how
8:52 pm
they are feeling and using the results as aping structures particularly surprising, perhaps? unfortunately, not surprising because i share those feelings in my clinic on the time and also, we put too much pressure on the conversation on how to build them mentally and we forget to have a healthy mentally society, we need to educate both boys and girls. more than a quarter— educate both boys and girls. more than a quarter of— educate both boys and girls. more than a quarter of the _ educate both boys and girls. more than a quarter of the teenagers pulse of the felt anxious most of the time, that is a high percentage. is a high percentage but we have created a culture that we are too quick to label and to diagnose things in adults we overuse the word
8:53 pm
anxiety and be a very quick to label, maybe some children feel worried, some feel pressured from parents and schools but, we see the things like anxiety and actually, there's complexity to it.- there's complexity to it. mobile -hones there's complexity to it. mobile phones popped _ there's complexity to it. mobile phones popped up _ there's complexity to it. mobile phones popped up a _ there's complexity to it. mobile phones popped up a lot - there's complexity to it. mobile phones popped up a lot in - there's complexity to it. mobile phones popped up a lot in this. phones popped up a lot in this survey what does that have to do with the state of how teenagers and feeling? with the state of how teenagers and feelin: ? , ., with the state of how teenagers and feelin. ? , ., ,.,. feeling? there is a huge impact on social media _ feeling? there is a huge impact on social media but _ feeling? there is a huge impact on social media but it's _ feeling? there is a huge impact on social media but it's not _ feeling? there is a huge impact on social media but it's not only - social media but it's not only social media but it's not only social media. so, i think we need to ask is serious questions about which society we create that our teenagers and appealing as they are feeling. it's extensive use of screens and close doors and parents think the children are safe and many times
8:54 pm
they are not and instead of in person communications and outdoor activities, socialising. are there other parts anxiety and helicopter style of parenting which is extensive involvement for the child is raised anxiety as well because when the parent does everything for the children and solves all their problems becomes overly involved, i can really hinder the child's development of resilience and self—esteem. so, academic pressure is different in the uk and maybe want to re—evaluate. tt is want to re-evaluate. it is fascinating _ want to re-evaluate. it is fascinating to _ want to re-evaluate. it is fascinating to talk - want to re-evaluate. it is fascinating to talk to - want to re-evaluate. it is fascinating to talk to you | want to re—evaluate. it is fascinating to talk to you about the state of our teenagers and thank you forjoining us. and before we go, let me show you some pictures coming to us from versailles, during the state dinner between king charles and french president macron.
8:55 pm
macron there, toasting the friendship between the uk and france. he said the king's visit is a �*tribute to our past and a guarantee of the future'. thanks for watching. hello there. despite some heat early on in the month, it's been pretty wet and windyjust recently and the rivers are now starting to look pretty ferocious. in fact, capel curig has seen a significant amount of rainfall in the last few days. just take a look at this. this is our september rainfall total so far. 226 millimetres, and i suspect we could be threatening the record before this month is through, with 366. shap, as well, seeing 202 millimetres of rainfall in the last few days. now, this was the story earlier on today, as we've seen this weather front sweeping its way steadily
8:56 pm
south and east, bringing some heavier pulses of rain at times. that still has to clear away, but centred close to this area of low pressure, we keep some showers in the far north—west. clearer skies elsewhere. it is going to be a chilly start to our thursday morning, with single figures for many. but as we go through the morning, there will be some sunshine around as well. so early—morning rain in the south—east clears away. sunny spells elsewhere and scattered showers developing from the west. closest to this low pressure, we see a frequent rash of showers, and gales still likely here. some of the showers across england and wales could be heavy, with rumbles of thunder, and they'll develop and push further inland as we go through the afternoon, with highs of 13 to 19 degrees. if we move out of thursday, we're still likely to see more showers around on friday. and the wind direction swings to more of a north—westerly, as the low slowly drifts its way steadily eastwards. so a cooler feel on exposed coasts, plenty of showers, particularly out towards the west to begin with. some of those will filter
8:57 pm
a little further inland, but there's potential for less thunder and lightning across england and wales as we go through friday. again, highs between 12 and i8 celsius. into the start of the weekend, a brief ridge of high pressure builds and is likely to quieten things down for the beginning of the weekend, in any case. but waiting out in the wings is another area of low pressure, which is going to push its way steadily eastwards. it means a relatively dry and sunny start to the weekend. there is a potential we'll keep the sunshine in the south. wet and windier conditions dominate, really, from sunday onwards, once again.
8:58 pm
8:59 pm
hello, i'm sarah campbell. you're watching the context on bbc news. if we continue down this path, we risk losing the consent of the british people. and the resulting backlash would not just be against specific policies, but against the wider mission itself. the decisions that rishi sunak has taken today have revealed that this is a weak prime minister presiding over a chaotic government, undermining the economic interest of this country. it certainly shocking _ and disappointing, particularly at a time when the rest of the world is struggling to move _ in the right direction.
9:00 pm
the briitsh prime minster announces a series of changes to climate targets — but is he making it more achieveable and affordable or has he just made net zero by 2050 even less likely to happen. also on the programme. king charles speaks movingly about his mother's ties to france, as he begins a three day state visit to the country. and a survey conducted by survation reveals many teenage girls say they experience sexual harassment in their day—to—day lives and do not feel safe on the street alone. to unpack this all with me is my panel, tom peck, political cartoonist at the independent and rina shah, political strategist and commentator — former adviser republican congress.
