duncan kennedy, is in salisbury. morning, duncan. what can we expect to be told today? it morning, duncan. what can we expect to be told today?— to be told today? it morning, sally. it is the opening — to be told today? it morning, sally. it is the opening of— to be told today? it morning, sally. it is the opening of the _ to be told today? it morning, sally. it is the opening of the public - it is the opening of the public inquiry after a very long waits, six years since dawn sturgess died. today we will get the opening statements from the council to the inquiry then we will move on this week to pen portraits about dawn sturgess herself, made by her family, about the police investigation into what happened here in salisbury, and also the medical response to what happened to dawn just outside salisbury in her home. in november, the inquiry will move to london, and it will move on to the wider picture, how those skripal that came to be poisoned, thurgate and —— and yuli, and the

wider russian involvement. this started as an inquest but it was thought it was too wide to be covered an inquest so it was turned into the inquiry. at the heart of it is the death of this 44 woman, dawn sturgess. this was dawn sturgess just a week before she died. the tragic conclusion to months of events concerning spies, nerve agents and perfume bottles. dawn was 44 and the mother of three children. the story had begun four months earlier here in a quiet cul de sac in salisbury. it was the home not of dawn sturgess, but of a russian man. he was sergei skripal, who's believed to have worked for british intelligence, and he became the target of an assassination attempt by moscow. he and his daughter yulia, who was visiting him, came to be poisoned with a nerve agent called novichok.

the front door of mr skripal�*s house had been smeared with the agent. what happened here will be just one of the points of investigation for the new public inquiry. sergei skripal never did return to his home here and after months of decontamination work, it was later sold. the judge in the inquiry says neither mr skripal nor his daughter yulia will give live evidence because, he said, they still face a significant risk to their safety. central to the public inquiry will be the role these three men played. they're all believed to have worked for russian military intelligence. two of them were filmed in and around salisbury at the time sergei and yulia skripal were poisoned. russia has always denied any involvement. it's believed the two men delivered the novichok in this perfume—like bottle that was discovered by the partner of dawn sturgess. charlie rowley took the bottle home to dawn and three

days later she fell ill. their flat in amesbury was sealed off. dawn never recovered and died a few days later. in the years that followed, their home was demolished, leaving just a patch of grass and trees, as well as questions about how it had all happened. salisbury�*s mayor says everyone involved wants the new inquiry to bring justice. do we need a public inquiry? will we find anything else out that we don't know? possibly, but probably not. the stuff that is secret will stay secret forever, and that will never come out, rightly so. but i think for those directly affected, yeah, it's important that part of the inquiry is held in the city where the event actually happened. the public inquiry is chaired by lord hughes of ombersley. it will hear evidence in salisbury and in london, and is due to report next year, producing the definitive version of this extraordinary, tragic story.

duncan kennedy, bbc news. six minutes past eight. jon has more of the day's news including an arrest at a donald trump rally in the united states. the fbi and the us secret service are investigating after a man found with guns, ammunition and fake documents in his car was arrested outside a donald trump rally in california. the republican presidential candidate has been the subject of two assassination attempts in recent months. the suspect was later released on bail after being detained at a checkpoint in the town of coachella. our north america correspondent, peter bowes, has more. we will make america safe again! donald trump in coachella, a town better known for its annual music festival than politics. but the former president was here in california campaigning for every vote he can get, even in this staunchly democratic state.

and the security around him has never been tighter. before mr trump arrived at the event, the police stopped a man at a checkpoint who gave his name as vem miller and claimed to have a vip invitation to attend. but the police searched his car and say they found several guns and ammunition. he approached the outside perimeter. sheriff chad bianco, who is an elected official and has previously expressed support for donald trump, later spoke to reporters about the suspect who was taken into custody. what we do know is he showed up with multiple passports with different names, an unregistered vehicle with fake license plate and loaded firearms. if you're asking me right now, i probably did have deputies that prevented the third assassination attempt. the us secret service said donald trump had not been in any danger,

while federal officials said there was no indication of an assassination attempt connected to the incident, which is still under investigation. the suspect was later released and will appear in court at a later date on weapons charges. donald trump's campaign issued a statement thanking law enforcement for securing the rally site. lessons were learned when the former president was almost killed injuly while speaking in pennsylvania. that was before another alleged assassination attempt at his florida golf course in september. whether or not this weekend's incident was another attempt to harm mr trump, it highlights the intense efforts under way to keep him safe with just three weeks to go before the election. peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. israel says a hezbollah drone attack on a military base in the north of the country has killed four soldiers and left 58 other people injured. the iranian—backed group said the attack in bin—yamina,
