' president. donald trump former president. donald trump is aware that he has been provided with the highest level of security, the fbi says the suspect ryan routh arrived in the area near donald trump's florida golf club at two in the morning. he remained undetected for nearly 12 hours when the secret service agents spotted him hiding in bushes with a rifle. he neverfired his weapon and fled on foot after and edge and fired several shots in his direction. the 58—year—old suspect appeared in court on monday charged with firearms offences. the fbi's interviewing friends and relatives as well as investigating his online presence. late on monday the white house has donald trump and joe biden had a cordial conversation. sundays attack being the second attempt on donald trump's life and a little over two months, questions of the safety of presidential candidates have intensified. ouranalysis editor looks now at the level of security surrounding donald trump when he was on the golf

course. the trump international golf club spreads across 330 acres, and donald trump plays there regularly. located in west palm beach in florida, the course is a ten—minute drive from his home at mar—a—lago. the club's perimeter is more than three miles long. this is one part of it, right by a public road. there's a chain—link fence. beyond that, you can easily see the course. and this was the route donald trump was taking during his round. he'd reached hole five. according to police, as the former president played, secret service agents walked one hole ahead, as is standard. and we're told those agents spotted a rifle sticking out of the fence. bbc verify has concluded it was somewhere in this area, which was later cordoned off. police say mr trump was between 300 and 500 yards away, within range of the rifle. they also released this image of a rifle fitted with a scope, two backpacks and a camera

attached to the fence. these events in florida happened while donald trump's safety during this election campaign was already under greater scrutiny because of a major security failure in july. at a rally in pennsylvania, a gunman shot at trump, hitting his ear and killing a bystander. the head of the secret service resigned days later. the secret service said they had increased the amount of assets protecting donald trump, but mr trump isn't president, and that's a factor. the local sheriff says... this raises questions about what is possible, and if the candidates in this presidential election can be kept safe, especially in locations they're known to visit frequently. and while americans seek answers, the authorities say the threat

level remains high. we are learning more about ryan routh, the suspect particularly from his social media presence. let's hear from someone who has met him. tanya is a reporter for the news outlet the free press, she spoke to ryan routh last year. good to have you with us. how did you come to meet and interview him? great to be here- _ meet and interview him? great to be here. last— meet and interview him? great to be here. last march - meet and interview him? great to be here. last march i- meet and interview him? great to be here. last march i was. to be here. last march i was reporting a story about us training a elite gun commandos eager tojoin the ukraine training a elite gun commandos eager to join the ukraine war effort and while i was reporting that story a source of mine referred me to ryan routh as one of the representatives, he was recommended as this person who set up a private organisation who wanted to join the ukraine war effort and aid groups. that is how i came to interview him.

i did a 20 minute long video interview with ryan routh with the backdrop of the us capital talking about his efforts in ukraine to help the war effort there. ., , ., he there. how did you find him? he clearly seemed _ there. how did you find him? he clearly seemed off. _ there. how did you find him? he clearly seemed off. he - there. how did you find him? he clearly seemed off. he seemed. clearly seemed off. he seemed unhinged. but it hardly mattered at the time, because at the time i was chasing a story that was completely separate. in a very narrow sense of his function for the purpose of the story, i did not care to question further. what is, in retrospect look like obvious red flags. is on hinged rants, there are videos available on youtube or his eccentric looks. that becomes

obvious in retrospect but i came to the conclusion that he ultimately, me and other reporters including the new york times and newsweek missed this because he was on the side of good. he was the right kind of good. he was the right kind of crazy. of good. he was the right kind of cra . �* , ., of crazy. but it he seemed a bit crazy _ of crazy. but it he seemed a bit crazy or _ of crazy. but it he seemed a bit crazy or did _ of crazy. but it he seemed a bit crazy or did he _ of crazy. but it he seemed a bit crazy or did he just - of crazy. but it he seemed a bit crazy or did he just seem authentic and passionate? both, and certainly _ authentic and passionate? both, and certainly if _ authentic and passionate? both, and certainly if you _ authentic and passionate? both, and certainly if you cannot - authentic and passionate? both, and certainly if you cannot as - and certainly if you cannot as crazy, it was easy to brush off because also you have to admit that when you are interviewing the craziest in terms of the personalities i've had a chance to meet in reporting on this because that line of work attracts certain personalities. people of certain disposition. if you are willing to go halfway around the world to aid a foreign war, you have to be very particular. he wasn't, he didn't stand out. it was easy

enough to brush off specifically because he didn't really stand out. i could not have imagined he could do something like attempt an assassination on a former president. assassination on a former president-— assassination on a former president. assassination on a former resident. ., ~' , ., , . president. thank you very much forioining _ president. thank you very much forioining us- — president. thank you very much forjoining us. thank _ president. thank you very much forjoining us. thank you - president. thank you very much forjoining us. thank you so - forjoining us. thank you so much. forjoining us. thank you so much- it — forjoining us. thank you so much. it seemed _ forjoining us. thank you so much. it seemed a - forjoining us. thank you so| much. it seemed a daunting challenge — much. it seemed a daunting challenge to _ much. it seemed a daunting challenge to secure - much. it seemed a daunting challenge to secure a - much. it seemed a daunting challenge to secure a golf. challenge to secure a golf course but the assistant director of the fbi from 2004— 2006 disagrees. i don't know that it is the most challenging of environment on a golf course because all you have to do is walk the perimeter, the fenceline at least one hole ahead of the president to make sure no—one is camped out and established a sniper nest. his rallies are much greater challenges because of the number of people, that every person there is a potential threat. i am a little bit harder in terms ofjudgement on the secret service

in this instance. i think it will be a very simple matter and they agreed as well. every secret service person i've spoken to agrees. what do you think needs to happen now in order to better protect the former president? i said a long time ago every time he's on a podium he has to have bullet—proof glass on all sides of him. i know he likes to connect with the audience but this is the only way to really protect him when in public. as far as this event or any type of setting like this or settings where trump is out and about, theyjust have to be more proactive and anticipatory in predicting what a bad guy could possibly do. they need to play out in their planning, look, where is the threat going to come from? in butler it was from the rooftops. in this case it would have come from the fenceline, the tree line.

i think they like to think that they are close in protecting the president instead of looking and establishing themselves in areas where the threat may emanate from, get in plain clothes and walk along the tree line or outside the fence. you don't have to wear the dark suit and sunglasses all the time, you can roll up your sleeves and do real work. in terms of the fbi investigation now into ryan routh, so much is already known so what is their priority at the moment? i think priority one is to find out how he came to be at that place at that time. did he get inside information, did someone carelessly pass on the information or post it? was he conducting surveillance? there are lessons to be learned if that is the case. if it is the inside information scenario, then i think that implicates a third party. and that is something that is pretty scary. that is question one,

we need to know the motivation but i think we know the motivation based on his social media posts, he is obviously anti—trump, who is an action guy that goes all the way to ukraine because he believes that they need help and they need extra fighters in ukraine so he travels there. even though he doesn't have much money. he is what they call a true believer and whatever he's believing at the moment he is all in and in this case i think it was in that mode of anti—trump. always on the assassination attempt on donald trump head to the bbc news website. we have a full summary for you and all the latest developments. the un's most senior official overseeing aid and reconstruction in word—mac's is the world is collectively failing civilians there after nearly a year of war. speaking to the bbc from new york, the senior un co—ordinator for

humanitarian action and reconstruction in gaza described the territory is the most unsafe territory in the world to work. on monday she presented a report to the council where she described humanitarian conditions in gaza is sombre and dark. she pleaded for a ceasefire and release' is saying a political solution to the conflict was the only path forward. she has been speaking to our chief international correspondent in a rare interview. my main message is of a very sombre and perhaps dark nature that humanitarian conditions in gaza is well documented them akin to a significant catastrophe that we have built all systems to be in place but there is no substitute for political will and the political choice to improve matters. the ceasefire and release of hostages is needed. not much else can be improved into a reach that point

is the un failing the people of gaza? it's too easy to say we are failing. what we are doing collectively as a community, we are failing the innocent civilians in gaza. and that comes out of the political environment. the un is working around the clock, we have lost a large number of our own staff. the so—called enabling environment in gaza is counter to anything else and we have witnessed in other places. the state department spokesperson matthew millar says the us is working with mediators egypt and qatar to present a revised proposal process five. miller telling reporters he doesn't have a timetable for a plan but washington wants to make sure it is one that can get both israel and hamas to an ultimate agreement. because process by deal comes as this us state department announced antony blinken is going to travel to egypt on tuesday and meet with the objection officials to

rupert has four votes and each of his four elder children have one vote each. when rupert dies, his four votes effectively expire and you have a 4—way tussle for control, that's the scenario worrying rupert murdoch. who does the spit lachlan against? well, rupert is arguing that lochland should have an expanded voting power as he does now so that he can control the trust regardless of the views of his three siblings. prudence from his first marriage, and elizabeth and james from his second marriage. and the scenario that they are worried about is that the more politically moderate siblings will try to wrest control

of the empire once rupert dies, from lachlan and what i reported in my book was they would reassert control of the assets and do it in a way that would protect and enhance democracies around the world rather than undermine them. without being too succession about all this, what other dynamics within the family? what is going on? they are more deeply divided than ever. we have not set the scenes we have seen overnight all of the murdoch children turning up to the courtroom steps and for these closed proceedings we have never seen that before. and in particular, the move by rupert to expand lachlan's voting power has caused a schism and the siblings have now, whose position was not clear, it was well known there was a rivalry and even an animosity between lachlan and his younger brotherjames.

they competed for the succession and it was not clear what side if any the sisters would take and it seems of the move to expand lachlan's trading power has kinda force them into an alignment with the younger brotherjames. the new president of rao will use his power to ensure the morality police do not bother women in the country. the reformist president responding to a female reporter who told him she had to take various alleyways to avoid the morality police to attend a press conference. he replaced the ultra conservative minister after a helicopter crash and campaigned on fully opposing police patrols enforcing the mandatory had scott. he was speaking to journalists on the second anniversary of the death of mahsa amini who died in custody after being arrested for failing to wear a custody after being arrested forfailing to wear a hijab properly. a debt sparking the

hair properly according to the morality police. right now the number of women that are walking unveiled in the street increased. we have seen extreme brutality from the regime, more than 700 people got killed during the uprising, more than 22,000 people got arrested. more than 100 people received death sentence, more than 100 women and men were intentionally blinded. at the same time i have to say the revolution itself called woman wife freedom happened inside the hearts and minds of people. speaking to us about the anniversary of mahsa amini's death. she has been in witness protection after facing threats from the regime. to the state of ohio where police say they are going to conduct daily sweeps of schools in springville after a spate of

the high pressure, though, is here to stay for the next few days. now, starting off on tuesday, a bit of rain clearing away from shetland, might see a few patches of cloud across east anglia first thing, but it should brighten up with some sunshine here, and any mist and fog patches clearing to reveal another beautiful day. plenty of autumn sunshine and those temperatures very similar to those on monday — high teens to low 20s. one of the warmest spots could end up being northern scotland, with highs here of 22, western counties of northern ireland — 21. middle parts of the week, perhaps a bit more in the way of cloud just to start off across parts of england, east wales that will thin and break with time, and there will be more of a breeze blowing for east anglia in the south—east of england. quite breezy for the far north of scotland, too, but otherwise, it's another beautiful day. after a chilly morning, there'll be loads more sunshine and temperatures 23 there for northern scotland, a 2k in south east england. these temperatures are quite a bit above average for this time of the year. it's a case of spot the difference really, for thursday. again a few mist and fog patches, a few patches of cloud

initially, but loads and loads of sunshine to come as we go on through the afternoon. top temperatures — 2a again around london, a 22 for western scotland, and we're still around 20 degrees or so for western counties of northern ireland. it will feel warm in that september sunshine. we do, however, start to see some signs of a change in the pattern through friday and into the weekend as low pressure starts to threaten from the south. this looks quite likely to bring us some heavy, thundery showers or some longer spells of rain across england and wales. but at this stage, it looks like scotland and northern ireland, probably northern england, should stay fine well into the weekend.
