pleaded not guilty to a spokesperson for his campaign a spokesperson for his campaign told cbs news that the filing told cbs news that the filing is "falsehood—ridden" and criticised its release. cbs news correspondent cbs news correspondent jarred hill, who's in jarred hill, who's in new york, has the details. new york, has the details. 165 pages here of that same thing. 165 pages here and the prosecutors are alleging that, again, trump resorted to crimes, trump resorted to crimes, they say, in his efforts they say, in his efforts to overturn the results to overturn the results of the 2020 election, of the 2020 election, that he focussed on his then that he focussed on his then vice president, mike pence, vice president, mike pence, who, according to this who, according to this document, told him at least nine times in the days immediately after the election that there was no evidence that the election had been stolen. also trying to convince him to give up the fight, overturning this, saying that he could just run document, told him at least again in the next cycle, to which trump allegedly said, "2024 is so far away. here we are now." all of this, though, is just showcasing a number of ways that people close

the study claims young adults are behind much of the increase. alison freeman has the details. it's seen as the less harmful alternative to smoking. but a study published today has found there's been a sharp rise in those taking up vaping, despite not being regular smokers. according to the study by university college london, the number of adults who fall into that category has now reached one million. the researchers say that's a seven fold increase since 2021, and that increase is largely driven by young adults with more than half aged between 18 and 24. it's likely vaping is displacing some smoking, and that's a positive population health thing. that's a reduction in risk. 2021 was around the time when disposable vapes started to flood our market, and disposable vapes make vaping more accessible, more appealing. they can deliver a higher concentration of nicotine

in a more tolerable way, and that, worryingly, could be creating more people dependent on nicotine. recent figures from the office of national statistics show that in the past decade, there has been a steep drop in the number of 18 to 2a—year—olds who smoke cigarettes from around a quarter to one in ten. in comparison to tobacco smoke, vaping is substantially less harmful. the harmful chemicals or cancer causing chemicals are a fraction of that in cigarette smoke. but if you've never smoked, our lungs are meant to breathe fresh air. and so if you're inhaling vape, it will be doing harm. what that harm will be, though, is still not clear, with experts saying longer term data is needed. alison freeman, bbc news. the argentine president, javier milei, has vetoed a law that would have increased funding to the country's cherished public university system. he carried out his threat hours after thousands

residential blocks and the lebanese health ministry has said nearly 2000 people, including 127 children, had been killed by israeli strikes. you are watching bbc news. good afternoon. it was an absolutely glorious start to the day, and most of us will keep sunny spells into the afternoon, but it came at a price. it was a chilly start, the coldest autumn morning so far in braemar in scotland, and we had some patchy mist and fog as well, as you get when high pressure dominates in autumn. and that high pressure is going to stay with us for the rest of the day and into tomorrow. but we will start to see a change developing as we go through the latter stages of friday into the start of the weekend. there's more wet and possibly windy weather to come as well. so enjoy the sunshine for the remainder of the afternoon. sunny spells, a little bit of fair weather cloud developing into the afternoon, and perhaps the breeze picking up and a few isolated showers

into western scotland. but on the whole, temperatures will peak at around 13 to 17 degrees, pretty much where they should be for this time of year. as we go through the evening, the winds will continue to strengthen further and this weather front will bring some showery rain into northern ireland and northwest scotland. clearer skies across england and wales will mean temperatures once again into single figures. and because of all the rain that we had in september, the ground is pretty moist so we could see further mist and fog forming. the high is drifting slowly eastwards and that means that these weather fronts will start to push in from the atlantic, but they are going to make slow progress. so on friday, the showery rain really sitting across western scotland, northern ireland, we might see more cloud developing through the isle of man and west wales, but on the whole dry and quiet elsewhere and once again, temperatures peaking into the mid to high teens in places. now, as we move out of friday into saturday, the next front will start to move in. again, a slow process being blocked by that high pressure.

but some of the rain will start to turn quite heavy across northern ireland and northwest scotland, and the winds will strengthen to elsewhere. we should cling on to some sunshine for the bulk of saturday, maybe some rain pushing into cornwall and southwest wales by the end of the day. that frontal system will continue to sweep its way steadily eastwards overnight, so a spell of heavy rain and stronger winds clearing across the country. that will linger first thing on sunday and even once it clears, it is going to leave quite a showery story for the second half of the weekend.
