hello, i'm sarah campbell. to the us election, and the state of nevada has been called for donald trump, leaving just arizona still to be decided. it takes mr trump's electoral college tally to more than 300. the republican party is also only seven seats short of a majority in the house of representatives, too. if they seize that, they would then control congress and the white house, handing mr trump almost complete control over the levers of government. one of donald trump's key election platforms was a promise to deport large numbers of undocumented migrants. that's left many people on both sides of the debate wondering how he plans to do it and when. here's our north america correspondent emma vardy. illegal aliens are stampeding into america by the millions. we will do large deportations. we're going to get these people out.

migrants have long been part of the foundations of america. now donald trump warns those who come here are facing a new era. his election victory showed his surge in popularity among many long—standing latino workers likejorge. i think he has the right tools for the job. when he says he's going to carry out mass deportations, what do you think? that's impossible. he will not be able to deport 12 million people out of here legally. you learn to develop a thick skin coming from where we come from, we don't pay attention to a lot of the things that people say, because we know that is just two of those are just words.

they believe they can achieve. translation: as a person, i don't like him. _ but as a politician, _ i like how he runs the country. but for this family, who have made this country their home for generations, they worry that friends and relatives will be torn apart. who are undocumented migrants to you? it is your neighbours, the people you see in at the grocery store, your teachers, your friends�* parents. to know that those people are in danger, it is terrifying. until you have to pay $10 for an avocado, people are not going to realise the importance of immigrant workers. why didn't they take the legal route in in the first place? the reason people can't come in legally is because it takes 12—15 years. there was a time in our country when you could do it in 18 months. that's why the need for comprehensive immigration reform is so particularly important. i feel a sense of repugnance i when i hear people talk about immigrants with this disdain. there are an estimated 12 million undocumented migrants in the us, many of whom have lived and worked here for decades. donald trump will be able

to use his presidential powers to order deportations using police, the military and border officials. but it could be costly and time—consuming and may face legal challenges. it's the best way to fix the border immediately. he has significant support for his plans. once you start holding people accountable, securing the border, you will see a lot of these folks will go back on their own, and then we start to go after the criminals, people that are causing problems in communities, gang members, people who were not vetted. we find those, and i think that's how you have to start. in arizona along the border with mexico, donald trump's plans will be felt no more deeply than here. but there are fears his drive to change this landscape has unleashed a darker side for many latinos further afield. emma vardy, bbc news, phoenix, arizona.

ina in a moment, we will speak to will grant in florida. live to washington and caitriona perry. the county is still going on but it's clear with the result is. , , ., , ., is. this is a resounding victory _ is. this is a resounding victory for _ is. this is a resounding victory for donald - is. this is a resounding i victory for donald trump is. this is a resounding - victory for donald trump and their republican party across their republican party across the board. as you think of a voting is still going on in arizona with 25% of the vote still to be counted and donald trump is ahead by 6% there. if that holds, that will be the biggest margin of victory in all of these swing states. the others he is coming about 1—3% had, in line with what the polls at actually predict it with a margin of error in those polls being around that. so he is sweeping that victory. the republicans have flipped over control of the senate. counting is still ongoing for the house of representatives, the lower house in the us congress, about 25 seats still outstanding there but it looks like the republican party will hold on power there as well. that will give them the white house, the senate and the house of representatives, which means

donald trump will be having an easy path to get through his policies and his plans through congress should all of that play out. so congress should all of that play out-— play out. so lots of soul searching _ play out. so lots of soul searching for _ play out. so lots of soul searching for the - play out. so lots of soul - searching for the democrats the moment to work out what went wrong. but in the meantime, donald trump is starting to put together his team, and we are presumably over the next few days just going to hear a few more names coming on for people that are going to help them in office. ., ., , ., , ., office. yeah, names and start tricklin: office. yeah, names and start trickling out _ office. yeah, names and start trickling out in _ office. yeah, names and start trickling out in these - office. yeah, names and start trickling out in these days - office. yeah, names and startj trickling out in these days and weeks and some of those names, there is substance to it. others people putting their own name out in the ether with the hope that it will actually result in a job for them. some of the people at donald trump is holding talks with by phone and some of them are in florida with him like micro robert f kennedyjunior. the financial times reports that robert light heiser, the trader presented under the first trumpet administration, may come back in thatjob again. now he had publicly lobbied for the job of

commerce secretary under the new administration as we will sway to see that reporting just coming to us from the financial times. so suspect though that he will have some role in the administration. he is a close ally of donald trump and have remained close while donald trump has been out of power as has been a vocal surrogate of donald trump and what he stands for over the past few months. we see elon musk there is well, actually is, a us media outlet reports that elon musk actually join the call between donald trump and the ukrainian president earlier this week that would be quite interesting if that is indeed what happened as they report. obviously elon musk�*s styling, the star links satellite communications product, has been crucial in the war in ukraine and they have been using that to launch drone attacks against russian targets. so quite a close relationship there, so interesting if that plays out

to have happened because of course we heard from donald trump on the campaign trail that he thought he could solve the war in ukraine even before inauguration day, which is the 20th of january inauguration day, which is the 20th ofjanuary and inauguration day, which is the 20th of january and honestly only one president at a time of the us and that is stilljoe biden until midday local time on the 20th of january but donald trump very clearly getting involved in matters here. �* , ., getting involved in matters here. �*, ., ., here. ok, let's go straight to florida and _ here. ok, let's go straight to florida and our— here. ok, let's go straight to| florida and our correspondent will grant. in the vicinity of mar—a—lago and clearly decisions being made behind those closed doors. definitely seems like — those closed doors. definitely seems like it. _ those closed doors. definitely seems like it. you _ those closed doors. definitely seems like it. you would - those closed doors. definitely seems like it. you would not l seems like it. you would not expect— seems like it. you would not expect anything else in the early— expect anything else in the early days after such a stunning victory, and you've just— stunning victory, and you've just been_ stunning victory, and you've just been laying out very clearly _ just been laying out very clearlyjust how certificate that — clearlyjust how certificate that victory has been. this was not a _ that victory has been. this was not a narrow scrape, not by any means _ not a narrow scrape, not by any means and — not a narrow scrape, not by any means and of course if he takes both_ means and of course if he takes both chambers of congress then went_ both chambers of congress then went up— both chambers of congress then went up in— both chambers of congress then went up in a situation where he won't _ went up in a situation where he won't even _ went up in a situation where he won't even need anybody's approval outside of his party of the — approval outside of his party of the names that he puts

the dutch capital. prior to the game, there was trouble involving maccabi fans and pro—palestinian protesters, with fireworks set off in a city square. there are also videos of a crowd believed to be israeli fans cheering as a palestinian flag is torn down from the side of a building. and here, a group of maccabi fans making racist chants on an escalator. we've had to cut the sound because of the offensive language. other videos circulating online, which the bbc has not yet verified, shows what appears to be a maccabi fan in a canal being told to say "free palestine". police have arrested 60 people. at least five have been taken to hospital. as the dust settles, sharp statements and strong sentiments from both israel and the netherlands. the mayor of amsterdam describing last night as an outburst of anti—semitism. translation: boys on scooters crossed the city in search - of maccabi tel aviv supporters. it was a hit—and—run. football fans were beaten and scared. after which, the rioters

quickly left again. and the king of the netherlands has issued a statement saying... in a statement, maccabi tel aviv, who's next fixture is against turkish besiktas, says its fans�* movements on the streets should be avoided and advises against the wearing ofjewish or israeli symbols. while the sequence of last night's events remains unclear, what is certain is that the violence was about more just football. nickjohnson, bbc news. dutch prime minister dick schoof on friday said he was "deeply ashamed" by these attacks. i am ashamed that this happened in the netherlands, and it's a terrible anti—semitic attack. and we will not tolerate, and we will prosecute the perpetrators. and i'm deeply ashamed that it could happen in the netherlands in 202a.

and a short while ago, the chief executive of maccabi tel aviv fc, ben mansford, spoke to reporters. look, obviously we're absolutely devastated. we get on that plane on wednesday to play a game of football, and the reason you're all at the airport is not because of a game of football. thank god we believe that all of our fans are accounted for. we think there's a strong chance now all of them have been released from the hospital, and whilst that's great news compared to where we were at 2—3am in the morning, i will feel and everybody at maccabi tel aviv and i'm sure everybodyjoins us — when everybody that travelled to amsterdam to watch that game is back home in israel. our correspondent anna holligan has been following developments in amsterdam and gave us this update. amsterdam is no stranger. to football—related violence, but this doesn't seem to have l been hooliganism between rival

supporters, but rather- targeted attacks based not on sporting rivalries, i but rather nationalities, and that's why it has ignited thisl international condemnation. we heard from the mayor of amsterdam earlier, . femke halsema. she said that men on. scooters hunted maccabi supporters on the streets and carried out— hit—and—run attacks. she said it brought . to mind the pogroms againstjewish people in dutch and european history. - amsterdam's police chief said that maccabi supporters - attacked a taxi and set a palestinian flag - on fire on wednesday. on fire on wednesday, - so the day before the game. the five people injured - seriously enough to require hospital treatment have now. been discharged from hospital. 62 people were - arrested overnight. ten of them remain in custody. the dutch prime minister, . dick schoof, has condemned what he described - as anti—semitic attacks. schiphol airport has said i that there will be increased

security due to the potential risk and passengers, - supporters could face - extra checks and searches as a result. dutch police have just. shared a link on x asking for anyone with information or footage, videos, - many of which have . been shared on social media already, to share them with them as part| of what they are describe as a major investigation i to establish who was behind these attacks, to find - and prosecute the perpetrators. it's looking as though this may have been premeditated, - and that is one of the main focuses of the police - investigation. now there will be an increased police presence throughout - amsterdam over the| weekend as a result. that was anna hall again reporting there. the united nations human rights commission has published

research showing children aged between 5—9 are the group suffering the most deaths in gaza and that around 70% of the people who have been killed by israeli action were women and children. the un report also claims that in its military action, israel is not distinguishing between civilians and fighters. but instead bombing residential areas indiscriminately. about 80% of victims were killed in residential buildings or similar housing. the un report says children between 5—9 years old or population group suffering the most deaths in gaza. my office is today publishing a report detailing the horrific reality that has unfolded for the people of israel and gaza since the 7th of october 2023. i have repeatedly warned about the risk of atrocity crimes being committed. justice must be served for these grave violations of international law. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news.

our weather's been really quite murky over the last week or two, and nowhere more so, really, than in parts of hampshire, where odiham has only recorded 18 minutes of sunshine over the last 11 days. it does mean that anyone walking around this part of hampshire with a newly—acquired tan has either been away on a sunny holiday or has been hitting a bottle of fake tan pretty hard. now, further northwards, we've had a lot of low cloud pushed up the eastern side of the pennines today. quite murky over the tops, and for some in west yorkshire, temperatures only reached seven degrees. but as the prevailing winds worked over and to the west of the pennines, the cloud actually broke up and finally we got to see some sunshine across north—west england. here, a rather sunny—looking rochdale. the best of the sunshine, though, was further north in scotland. some cloud trapped here in this weather watcher picture in the valleys underneath our area of high pressure. top temperatures in the highlands reached 16 degrees today. that would've felt quite pleasant, but for most, it was grey, it was cloudy and it was quite chilly. overnight tonight we go,

and the cloud stays with us, thickening to give a few patches of drizzle, a few mist and hill fog areas as well. our temperatures, give or take, around 6—8 degrees celsius, a bit milder across some western areas. there will be very gradual changes in our weather picture this weekend, but it's hard to spot those changes on saturday. there's a rather grey start to the day for most areas, best of the sunshine again for northern scotland, but this weak weather front just here will introduce some thicker cloud into northern ireland and eventually we'll start to see some patches of light rain pushing in here. our temperatures pretty much like today, around 8—10 degrees quite widely. it will feel chilly again for the start of the weekend. sunday, weatherfronts move across the uk towards our area of high pressure that's now slipping away into europe. the fronts themselves very weak, just bringing some light and patchy outbreaks of rain and drizzle. and there's prospects for the weather to at least brighten up in scotland and northern ireland as the winds pick up here through the afternoon. starting to turn a little bit milder, and then into next week, well, on monday, we get an area

of high pressure, and new high pressure, building right over the top of the uk. and this should finally give us some much sunnier weather. ok, there could be some mist and fog patches around first thing, but for the most part, a decent—looking day with sunny skies and temperatures running close to average for the time for the time of year at around 10—13 degrees. the big question is how long this high pressure hangs around into next week.
