a march in washington ahead of donald trump's inauguration. now it's time for a look at today's sport with tolsen tullet. hello from the bbc sport centre. justin kluivert scored a hatrick as bournemouth moved up to sixth in the premier league for the time being after thumping newcastle united 4—1 at st james�*s park. the 25—year—old dutchman scored two in the first half before his third came in stoppage time to make it ten games unbeaten in the premnier league for the cherries on what was their longest away trip of the season. we always know we end good, but at the start of the game, it is one of the most important things that we really focus on, so that is what we wanted to do today. and that was good today, so i am super proud of the team, also to know that our squad is not that big at the moment, but that does not give us an easy talk, that is why we

3:32 pm
we are going to try to be as good as we possibly can tomorrow night. that is the objective, they are a really good side and that is why they beat us. last season. and they are a really difficult opponent, so we will prepare in the best way to win. there'll be a minute's applause at football matches across scotland this afternoon, as well as at manchester united's game against brighton tomorrow, in tribute to the former ballon d'or winner denis law, who has died at the age of 8a. manchester united have called him the "ultimate goalscorer" as tributes have been laid outside old trafford today. the man dubbed �*the king' and �*the lawman�* spent 11 years with the club. his 237 goals in 404 appearances placing him third in united's history behind wayne rooney and sir bobby charlton. in melbourne, world number one jannik sinner is through to the fourth round of the australian open. the defending men's champion beat the american marcus giron in straight sets. he'll now take on the winner of serbia's miomir kecmanovic and holger rune of denmark who will face a player
3:33 pm
on a i7—match win streak. in the women's draw, briton emma raducanu has been knocked out, beaten 6—1, 6—0 by the polish second seed iga swiatek. it turned out to be one of the heaviest defeats of the former us open champions career as she lost in straight sets, winning only one game in what was a fourth straight defeat to swiatek. yeah, i think it was a match going into it, i knew i had to play really well. when you are facing a top player, and i think today, credit to iga, she played good tennis. but i think it was a little bit of her playing well and me not playing so well. so that combination is probably not good and resulted in today. china's eileen gu and birk ruud of norway have started the new year with slopestyle wins at the laax open in switzerland. the 21—year—old gu clinched her first world cup victory in slopestyle since 2020 with a score of 81.22 points,

after she was runner—up in laax last season. ruud, the reigning men s slopestyle world champion, took his victory with 85.54 points, moving him into the top spot of the men s slopestyle world cup rankings. and that's all the sport for now. i will be back with more a little bit later. israel is preparing to receive the first three hostages due to be released on sunday under a ceasefire deal agreed with hamas. the ceasefire, given final approval by the israeli cabinet after discussions late into friday night, is due to begin at 08:30 local time. overnight, a family of five is reported to have been killed in the al—mawasi area of gaza, a declared safe zone in the south of the territory. the hamas—run health ministry says more than 120 people have been killed
3:35 pm
since the ceasefire deal it was announced on wednesday. we also need to mention that the israeli police are saying that several people have been wounded in stabbing attack in tel aviv, this is the scene live in the city at the moment. on an attacker is reported to have been killed at the scene, the motive is not yet clear. but i30—year—old man who was injured is reported to be in in serious condition —— 30—year—old man. the police say there is a large number of officers attending the incident, which was brought under control quite quickly by them. well, here in the uk, eight people have been arrested at a pro—palestinian rally in central london. hundreds of people gathered and made a heavy police presence. our correspondent nickjohnson is on the scene of a major protest in london by
3:36 pm
pro—palestinian demonstrators calling for the ceasefire to hold. and despite that cease fire agreement being in place, that hasn't stopped the many hundreds of people that have come out in support of the palestine solidarity campaign. we're in whitehall, surrounded by government departments. in central london. that way, downing street full of protesters that way, trafalgar square also full of many hundreds of protesters. a common presence at these protests over the past year or so has usually been smaller counter—protests. as you can see, you can see the israeli flag. you can also see yellow balloons, the sign of hope for the safe return of hostages from gaza. now, we've spoken to now, we've spoken to the organisers of this the organisers of this march, the palestine march, the palestine solidarity campaign, solidarity campaign, who say they welcome that ceasefire who say they welcome that ceasefire agreement, but they say agreement, but they say it is very tentative. it is very tentative. they're worried they're worried about it not holding. about it not holding. and they say, therefore, the and they say, therefore, the decision to stop these marches decision to stop these marches or keep these national or keep these national marches going, which marches going, which they have been over the past they have been over the past year or so, is under review. year or so, is under review.

3:38 pm
ee�*hatezsase�*gthgtfiass: a: would probably be the ee�*hatezsase�*gthgtfiass: a; would probably be the first he would probably be the first to admit he did not think he would win. so he took a lot of advice from washington insiders, and brought those sorts of people on his team. this time, he is looking more individually at a lot of people who are experts in their field, successful business people, entrepreneurs, and people who have done well. outside of say, the dc circle. i think that will be number one. number two,... is different. even in the lead up to the election, you bury much got the field that this is much more populist... america first agenda, when the voters are asked what is that you are looking for over and over and over... they were told they want the economy to improve, and of course they wanted the crisis at the southern border to be put back under control. and then the third thing is
3:39 pm
just sort of the pope foreign policy, the united states seems to be involved in all sorts of situations around the globe —— the foreign policy. especially younger americans, the foreign policy. especially youngeramericans, but the foreign policy. especially younger americans, but even my generation, gen x, we want to re—evaluate if we really want to be america's policemen involved in all of these different wars, we would rather have peace through strength. i think that is what you are going to see. very different than the first time. it going to see. very different than the first time.- than the first time. it is lovely to _ than the first time. it is lovely to think - than the first time. it is lovely to think that - than the first time. it is lovely to think that you | than the first time. it is - lovely to think that you and i are at that younger ones... i said younger and are at that younger ones... i said youngerand gen are at that younger ones... i said younger and gen x. it is all relative, look at the average age of senators and my country — average age of senators and my count . ~ ., ., country. well into their late 70s, so i — country. well into their late 70s, so i guess _ country. well into their late 70s, so i guess we - country. well into their late 70s, so i guess we are - 70s, so i guess we are teenagers sale. if 70s, so i guess we are teenagers sale.- 70s, so i guess we are teenagers sale. 70s, so i guess we are teenauers sale. ., , teenagers sale. if only we felt like that _ teenagers sale. if only we felt like that. you _ teenagers sale. if only we felt like that. you mentored - teenagers sale. if only we felt like that. you mentored the i like that. you mentored the economy and how people want to see an affordable cost of living. —— mentioned the
3:40 pm
economy. but if donald trump goes ahead with the tariffs he has been talking about on certain imports, that is going to cause a terrible problem not just for the us economy but for the global economy. he could be responsible for that. and the global economy. he could be responsible for that.— responsible for that. and the word which — responsible for that. and the word which you _ responsible for that. and the word which you used - responsible for that. and the word which you used if - responsible for that. and the word which you used if he . responsible for that. and the l word which you used if he goes ahead with it.— ahead with it. you don't think he will? despite _ ahead with it. you don't think he will? despite his - ahead with it. you don't think he will? despite his claims i he will? despite his claims that he will? i he will? despite his claims that he will?— he will? despite his claims that he will? i think they are bein: that he will? i think they are being used _ that he will? i think they are being used as _ that he will? i think they are being used as a _ that he will? i think they are being used as a negotiation | being used as a negotiation tool to somewhat very good effect, especially if you look back into 2019, when donald trump threatened to put 25% tariffs on mexican cars if the mexican president did not start controlling the border and the illegal drugs that were coming through our southern border, then he was going to send these tariffs on. and he never had to do that because, surprise, the mexican president started making sure the border it was more controlled. so, let's see, i do think, that's not to say that some of these tariffs will not be put on with regards to
3:41 pm
china, the biden administration left on the donald trump tariffs. so i do not think it is going to happen in the way that it has been played out. i think it is a negotiating tool. you mention foreign policy and that he does not like war and that he does not like war and that he does not like war and that he will want to see an end to the conflict between ukraine and russia, and the middle east. but who are going to be the losers in that? there is concern, certainly in kyiv, that donald trump will be far too kind towards vladimir putin, for example. i too kind towards vladimir putin, for example.- too kind towards vladimir putin, for example. i am always amused when _ putin, for example. i am always amused when people _ putin, for example. i am always amused when people say - putin, for example. i am always amused when people say that, l amused when people say that, because let's not forget that donald trump is the only president of our last for that vladimir putin did not invade another country. he invaded georgia under bush, ukraine under obama, and then again it ukraine underjoe biden. i think that peace through strength will come through, this war has gone on for way too long. hundreds of thousands
3:42 pm
of ukrainians have died and it russians have died, and nobody can say what the end goal is here. so the winners will most likely be the soldiers and civilians who are not going to continue to be killed. i think peace negotiations do need to happen, and i think he is going, he is already working on that. whether he says i will solve it in 24 hours, i don't know. but what we do know for sure is that there is a lot more diplomacy that is going on then went on with the biden harris administration, who, from my understanding, had very little communication with vladimir putin over the last two or so years. whatever you want to say about donald trump, he will talk to anybody. you will talk to dictators, he will talk to hostile media, he will talk to hostile media, he will talk to hostile media, he will talk to friendly media, and i think that is a good thing. and that you add a little more transparency with that, especially coming from a new
3:43 pm
sort of decentralised media, and these are good things. jennifer, always good to talk to you. thank you very much. let's just so you life pictures in washington, dc, where as we have been reporting, people's march as they are calling it began about 45 minutes ago. large crowds gathering there to protest the incoming donald trump administration. while preparations of course continue for the inauguration of donald trump, a ceremony having been moved indoors because it is dangerously cold weather being forecasted for next week. donald trump is due to arrive in washington, dc later for a series of events before being sworn in on monday. we will have full live coverage of his inauguration here on bbc news with a special programme from washington, it starts at midday gmt on monday.
3:44 pm
now on bbc news... newswatch. the challenge of reporting on disasters. welcome to the media show. welcome to newswatch with me, samira ahmed. coming up, with correspondents speaking to us from close to the fires in los angeles. what message does that send to the public? and we're sending clive myrie to present from there a good use of resources. although firefighters have been busy this week putting out the widespread blazes that have been spreading across los angeles and the surrounding areas, some fires have remained active and with fears of more high winds to come, the danger to residents and their property is farfrom over. on monday, clive myrie arrived on the scene in california to co—present the bbc one bulletins. good evening to you from altadena, a suburb of los angeles.
3:45 pm
we're about 14 miles from the downtown area, and we arrived here yesterday afternoon and this is what was left. clive's presents annoyed a number of years, including pam goodall, who expressed her views for us on video. you've covered this very adequately with local reporters from the very beginning, so what is the point of him being there? because all he did was hand over to emma vardy, who did herjob, handed back to him. he thanked her and that would prevent planes. at that point, his image was frozen and he was silenced. i'm so sorry we've lost - the connection to clive there. maybe that is technical karma working for you, but really, is this what he gets paid the big bucks for? is this why he flew 6,000 miles? what was the point of him being there? bronwyn foxen had the same question. why on earth did the bbc send clive murray to la to cover
3:46 pm
the devastating fires? it came across as almost voyeuristic and an
