hello, i'm sally bundock. hello, i'm sally bundock. we start in the united states we start in the united states where donald trump has spoken where donald trump has spoken for the first time since for the first time since an apparent second attempt an apparent second attempt on his life in two months. on his life in two months. speaking in a livestream speaking in a livestream on the social media website x, on the social media website x, the former president described the former president described hearing shots ringing out hearing shots ringing out as the secret service opened as the secret service opened fire on the suspected gunman. fire on the suspected gunman. meanwhile, the acting head meanwhile, the acting head of the us secret service, of the us secret service, ronald rowe, has praised ronald rowe, has praised the �*swift actions�* of his the �*swift actions�* of his agents for stopping agents for stopping the gunman in time. the gunman in time. the suspect, ryan routh, the suspect, ryan routh, has appeared in a florida has appeared in a florida courthouse. courthouse. he was detained after he was detained after secret service agents spotted secret service agents spotted an assault rifle in bushes an assault rifle in bushes a few hundred yards a few hundred yards from mrtrump, from mrtrump, who was unharmed. who was unharmed. the white house said the white house said president biden had also spoken president biden had also spoken to mr trump on the phone to mr trump on the phone where the two men had where the two men had what was called what was called a "cordial" conversation. a "cordial" conversation. here's donald trump speaking here�*s donald trump speaking

on x, where he praised the work on x, where he praised the work of his protection team. of his protection team. i was playing golf with some of my friends, it was on a sunday morning. a very peaceful and beautiful weather, everything was beautiful. a nice place to be. all of a sudden, we heard shots being fired in the air. i guess probably four or five. it sounded like bullets but what do i know about that? the secret services knew immediately after bullets. they grabbed me and we got into the cot and moved along pretty good. i was with an agent and the agent did a fantasticjob. many are wondering why security around the former president wasn�*t tighter — why the entire golf course where he was playing, hadn�*t been cordoned off. as we just heard, security for presidential candidates falls short of the attention paid to sitting presidents, by the secret service. here�*s ros atkins.

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. at this level that he is at right now, he�*s not the sitting president. if he was, we would have had this entire golf course surrounded. but because he�*s not, security is limited to the areas that the secret service deems possible. 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.

let�*s speak to our correspondent in los angeles, peter bowes. hello to you. a lot going on, not least hearing donald trump speak for the first time about these events. bring us up to date? , ., ., date? yes, quite a detailed account from _ date? yes, quite a detailed account from donald - date? yes, quite a detailedi account from donald trump during this extra space conversation he had, praising his secret service agents for realising pretty quickly they could hear gunshots, they could hear the bullets as donald trump put it, and praising them or really getting him out of there quite quickly. as you say there quite quickly. as you say there are still lots and lots of questions remaining about the level of protection that donald trump had that day, we have had it explained he wasn�*t and is in the president that is why the entire golf course was not cordoned off, although still people are asking questions bearing in mind what happened a couple of months

ago, suggesting perhaps more stringent security measures could still have been taken to protect the president on that day. we know it was quite an impromptu game of golf this is what donald trump does, not on his schedule, his secret service people had relatively little time to come up with the kind of plan they had, and they were at pains to point out — this was a plan that worked because they stopped a possible assassination of the former president. assassination of the former president-— president. there will be questions _ president. there will be questions as _ president. there will be questions as to - president. there will be questions as to how - president. there will be questions as to how the president. there will be - questions as to how the suspect that has been charged with federal gun crimes, ryan routh would know that donald trump would know that donald trump would be playing golf at that time. he was there with an arms. you wonder with an impromptu game of golf not scheduled how he would have that information? did scheduled how he would have that information?— scheduled how he would have that information? did he have any information _ that information? did he have any information at _ that information? did he have any information at all? - that information? did he have any information at all? we - any information at all? we really don�*t know that that is part of the investigation, perhaps it was a good guess, we

are told he was in the vicinity, we know this, the investigators knew this through the examination of data on his mobile phone, he was in the vicinity for some 12 hours. it seems he may well have simply been waiting by the roadside, by the edge of that golf course in case donald trump decided to play golf, as he often does on a sunday. as i say we really don�*t know categorically that was the situation. investigators say they are diving deep into the background of the suspect to see not only what he was doing earlier that day but the days preceding and the weeks to try to build a follow—up to his lifestyle, and possible motives. b, follow-up to his lifestyle, and possible motives.— possible motives. a lot of questions _ possible motives. a lot of questions as _ possible motives. a lot of questions as you - possible motives. a lot of questions as you say - possible motives. a lot of l questions as you say peter, thank you very much for your update on what has been happening. let�*s speak to barry donadio, a former secret service agent who worked for presidents bush and obama.

you and i were in conversation yesterday and a lot has emerged since then. give us your take on what has been said about security surrounding donald trump since.— security surrounding donald trump since. well, the acting director row _ trump since. well, the acting director row cleared - trump since. well, the acting director row cleared up - trump since. well, the acting director row cleared up a - trump since. well, the acting director row cleared up a lot i director row cleared up a lot of the confusion as to how much security there is, he said he did have a counter sniper team, assault team, these are tactical teams on the special operations division of the secret service, extremely highly trained, very capable and searching for tutors as you would imagine. there is never enough of them because they are so specialised, this came out during the press conference. this sounds to me like president trump may be had a schedule that was planned out for the security detail, we do have an idea what the president will do for a day and this seemed to be a right turn off of that schedule, where they

you might have just said of that schedule, where they you might havejust said hey, i don�*t think i feel like —— i think i feel like playing golf, he turned up at the golf course unannounced the security detail has to adjust and secure a golf course. that might have been by the golf course was not entirely closed down. it may not have been enough time to do it for the size of the course itself, the actions that were in place that the director row stated were put in place, after pennsylvania incident, they detected the threat, they found the threat and this was in advance of the —— president would be more affected by the threat against donald trump. they saw the threat and they were able to counter the threat and donald trump is safe and well as he has reassured us

all, the incident has led to a reassessment of what is required to keep presidential candidates safe?— candidates safe? yes, pennsylvania - candidates safe? yes, pennsylvania that - candidates safe? yes, - pennsylvania that shocked us all, it will put a lot of scrutiny on the secret service now and how they do things, now a second attempt, so close to the first attempt, it is almost like hysteria point, and leads to conspiracy theories, so this really ups the level even higher, and with the way things are in the political environment in the united states, even these two attempts may lead to a third attempt. president biden say they are increasing resources available, what do you think that looks like? ., ., ., ~, ~ what do you think that looks like? ., ~ ., like? that looks like more management, _ like? that looks like more management, more - like? that looks like more - management, more leadership, more resources, whether it be

local, or secret service assets on the ground, now you have heard them speak of drones, those drones would be very helpful in scanning certain areas hard to get to areas like rooftops for instance where they were not present in pennsylvania. i imagine they will be deploying as many drones as they have, and i don�*t know the number of that, and i�*m sure it is not an infinite number, you have to remember the secret service is not a huge agency, it is not the us post office where you have thousands and thousands of employees, this is a very small, tightknit community, small, tightknit community, small agency i should say, where they are so highly trained, the government investing a lot of money and keeping their agents the best in the world.— in the world. barry donadio, inc ou in the world. barry donadio, inc you for _ in the world. barry donadio, inc you for your _ in the world. barry donadio, inc you for your time - in the world. barry donadio, inc you for your time good i in the world. barry donadio, | inc you for your time good to talk to you again. former secret service agent in the us.

here, junior doctors in england have ended their 18—month dispute after they accepted the government�*s offer of a 22% pay rise over two years. the health secretary, wes streeting, said the agreement was crucialfor the nhs. but, the doctors�* union, the bma warned the government they expected above—inflation pay rises in future years or they would face "consequences". here�*s our health editor hugh pym. real relief tonight amongst nhs managers in england that this dispute is at an end as things stand and we won�*t get disruption over the crucial winter period as we did last year. it began in march last year stroking junior doctors on picket lines demanding a rise of 25% which they said could compensate for inflation over a decade. some talks took place with the conservative government but that did not stop 11 rounds of strikes over a total of 44 days. soon after the election the labour government made an increased pay offer which the doctors union put two members and they

voted to accept. we union put two members and they voted to accept.— voted to accept. we are bringing _ voted to accept. we are bringing this _ voted to accept. we are bringing this current - voted to accept. we are - bringing this current dispute two years to an end. it has taken far too long for the government to take any meaningful step towards pay restoration. we are now in a process of turning the tide and i hope we can continue to make thatjourney into the future so doctors don�*t have to strike over pay again. doctors don't have to strike over pay again.— over pay again. the offer included _ over pay again. the offer included in _ over pay again. the offer included in a _ over pay again. the offer included in a backdated i over pay again. the offer. included in a backdated pay rise to last you a 4% on top of an increase of 9%, and for this year an additional 6% increase topped up with an extra £1000, which comes to around 9%. it over all adds up to 22%. the government says strike action ijy government says strike action byjunior doctors cost the nhs in england around £1.7 billion. the health secretary welcomed the vote in favour of the deal. the deal be reached with junior doctors is fairfor them but crucially fair for patients and

the taxpayer because now we can draw a line under this dispute, cut waiting list and get our energies notjust back on its feet but that for the future. nhs managers and patients will be relieved further strikes of the agenda in england, around 1.5 million appointments and operations were cancelled because of all industrial action by nhs unions since the end of 2022. the bma arguing there is still a long way to go to compensate for past inflation, and their campaign isn�*t over. the doctors union agreed to pay deal with the scottish government last year and there were not any strikes. junior doctors in wales have voted in favour of a pay offer is an ongoing dispute in northern ireland. around the world and across

the uk, this is bbc news. to the middle east next,

where the us secretary of state antony blinken is due in egypt shortly as efforts continues to try and secure a ceasefire deal, and the release of hostages in gaza. mr blinken met with israel�*s opposition leader, yair lapid, in washington on monday. mr lapid hasjoined other world leaders in calling for prime minister benjamin netanyahu to secure a truce with hamas "immediately". we will do everything necessary in order to make sure there is a hostage deal. i believe that any political interest should be set aside for this. this is way more important. israel as a nation will not heal unless we bring them back home. this is essential to our existence. i will quote antony blinken from a close meeting. i will say it is doable. we can have, we can do a deal and we need to do it.

with me is mohamed taha from bbc arabic. good morning to you. anthony blink and back in the region, tell us more.— tell us more. this is his 10th title -- tour _ tell us more. this is his 10th title -- tour in _ tell us more. this is his 10th title -- tour in the _ tell us more. this is his 10th title -- tour in the tour - tell us more. this is his 10th| title -- tour in the tour since title —— tour in the tour since the war started in october in the war started in october in the last nine visits of mr blank and we didn�*t see much progress, on some occasions, when he came, got intensified, in the last visit of mr lincoln the prime minister broke the news of the corridor at philadelphi corridor, that the israeli forces wish to continue the presence of this corridor, that complicated the negotiations a little bit, mr blinken is coming with news coming from israel, that

benjamin netanyahu is willing to fire his defence minister johanna galante and appoint a new defence minister, so things are really complicated upon his visit. b, are really complicated upon his visit. �* ., ., visit. a lot at stake as ever, in the meantime _ visit. a lot at stake as ever, in the meantime let's - visit. a lot at stake as ever, in the meantime let's talk l in the meantime let�*s talk about israel what it describes as the new aim of the government for returning residents to northern israel. what does that mean practically?— what does that mean racticall ? , . , ., practically? this decision has been taken _ practically? this decision has been taken last _ practically? this decision has been taken last night, - practically? this decision has i been taken last night, security meeting of the israeli government, we can see some contradictions in the israeli government, is at some point they want to return back the displaced israelis to northern israel, and at the same time, the israeli prime minister as i said he seeks to fire his defence minister and appoint another right—wing minister to

replace him. the main reason for this, that the defence minister is vocal and against widening the war against hezbollah in the north, and this right—wing minister that he is going to be appointed, he is really willing to this war. but this will mean that hezbollah will fire more rockets to northern israel, to what extent the israeli government would be able to widening the war, at the same time return back the israelis to northern israel, this is the big challenge upon the israeli government. also we can see in gaza there is intensifying to the fighting, with sore 35 people died in gaza and the last hours, we saw shelling to a bakery, schelling to some homes, so we can see upon the visit of mr blinken and upon the plans of returning the israelis back to northern

israel, you can see widening and intensifying the fighting on all fronts. mohamed taha from bbc arabic. thank you very much. at least 16 people are now thought to have died following catastrophic flooding caused by a powerful storm moving across several countries in central europe. the damage which stretches for more than 1,000 miles from germany and as far as romania has left thousands homeless and for some areas, yet more bad weather is forecast. the mayor of the polish city of nysa has asked all 114,000 residents to evacuate with the military being drafted in to shore up flood defences as the klodzka river threatens to burst its banks. sarah rainsford reports from the czech—polish border. in the flood zone of poland, there is an urgent call to evacuate. fears that a stretch of embankment could collapse after days battered by a river swollen by torrential rain.

not farfrom here, a dam has burst. the pressure is increasing. nysa has already flooded, but it could get much worse, so residents like teresa have been told to get out to higher ground. "it�*s the weather, it�*s nature, what can you do?" she tells me. but nature is powerful. it smashed up the main bridge in the next town and plunged it underwater. when the floods subsided, there was chaos... ..and filth everywhere. right into their houses. how high did the water come? this man and his family had onlyjust decorated. all this was brand—new.

everything isjust...damaged. everything, money, what we have. it was repaired and now we don�*t have nothing. his neighbour tells me she fled when the water came rushing in. was it scary when it was coming? yes. i�*m scared. recovering from this won�*t be easy and the danger still hasn�*t passed. sarah rainsford, bbc news. let�*s get some of the day�*s other news now. sean combs has been arrested in manhattan after a grand jury indictment. the specific charges against the rapper, also known as p diddy have not yet been confirmed, although his legal team said they deeply disappointed with the decision to prosecute him. the arrest follows raids on two of his properties in los angeles and miami. combs has faced several lawsuits in recent months

with multiple sexual allegations. he has denied all the accusations. facebook owner meta has announced that it is banning the russian state media outlet rt from its platforms, along with a host of other networks. the social media giant accused the news networks of engaging in "foreign interference activity". the move comes days after a state department official called rt "a fully fledged member of the intelligence apparatus "of the russian government." enforcement of the ban will roll out over the coming days. a court battle to determine the future of rupert murdoch�*s media empire began in the us on monday. the case will pit 93—year—old mr murdoch against three of his eldest children over who will gain major voting rights in his company when he dies. the billionaire is reportedly seeking to alter the terms of a trust to ensure that his eldest son, lachlan murdoch, retains full control over news corp�*s portfolio of newspapers

and television networks. authorities in the us state of ohio say police will conduct daily sweeps of schools in springfield after a spate of bomb threats. the city has become the epicentre of the american immigration debate after donald trump made these comments in last week�*s us presidential debate. a lot of towns don�*t want to talk about it because they are so embarrassed by it. in springfield, they�*re eating the dogs, the people that came in, they�*re eating the cats, they�*re eating the pets of the people that live there, and this is what�*s happening in our country. these comments from donald trump have been rejected by springfield officials, including the republican mayor. the governor of ohio, mike dewine, said had all of the bomb threats

were found to have been hoaxes. we have received at least 33 separate bomb threats stop each one of which has been responded to, each one of whom has been found as a hoax. so 33 threats, 33 hoaxes. i want to make that very, very clear. none of that has any validity at all. a rare yellow—eyed penguin, also called hoiho, took the crown in new zealand�*s bird of the year competition. more than 50,000 people voted in the competition to give the penguin its second win since 2019. thought to be one of the world�*s rarest penguin species, only around 4,000 are believed to be left in the world.

business today is next. as i mentioned we are talking about the rupert murdoch case on the other top business stories. see you soon. hello. on monday, we had an area of high pressure establish itself across the uk, and with that came plenty of sunshine. for example, here in capel curig, and just to the south in ceredigion, we had the day�*s highest temperature — up to 22 degrees in the warmest spots. now, you�*ll notice a bit more in the way of clouds towards the northwest, and, indeed, over the next few hours could see some splashes of rain work into shetland for a time. quite breezy conditions here. watch out for a few mist and fog patches over the next few hours forming across parts of northwest england, wales, the west midlands and southwest england too. visibility could drop down to about 100m in the densest of those fog patches. so, it�*s quite a chilly start to the day with temperatures down at around 5 degrees in the coldest spots.

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 southeast 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 southeast 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.

the race to reach net zero: the uk�*s oil and gas industry says it�*s ahead in meeting government—set emissions targets. get back to the office: amazon scraps its working—from—home policy, ordering its staff to be back in the office five days a week from january. also in the programme: unions scramble to save jobs and the desperate search for buyers as the 163—year—old shipyard that built the titanic is under threat. we are live to belfast for the latest. and old is the new new at the london fashion week as it promotes reuse to become more sustainable.

live from london, this is business today. i�*m sally bundock. we start in the north sea where the oil and gas industry says it�*s made "significant progress" in reaching emissions targets. according to a report out from offshores energies uk that represents the industry, it concludes it has seen emissions fall by almost a third since 2018. it says methane emissions have more than halved since 2018 and overall emissions associated with the production of oil and gas have reduced by 28% in that time frame. if this trend continues, the uk could achieve targets agreed with the government for methane reduction seven years ahead of the 2030 deadline. but the advocacy group uplift — which campaigns for a rapid and fair transition away from oil and gas production — says, "this is all smoke and mirrors. "these short—term targets

were so weak as to be almost "impossible to miss."
