the us. navy's public affa i rs they may find. the us. fairs department is sending out its statement bit by bit so whatever we get from them is what we are able to report that it would be difficult to report that it would be difficult to speculate. there are hopes that while the ship is docked here at the naval base, repair work is under way. we do know that. that is what the department has told us. whether oi’ the department has told us. whether or not they are looking for people on board, they have not said. you will rememberfrom on board, they have not said. you will remember from the last incident, the us is fitzgerald, that is what they did find. i imagine the priority right now for the us. navy is to try and make sure that the search and rescue operation continues. it went on overnight, and throughout the night and it's extremely expensive, as well is making sure the warship itself gets repaired. four men are due to appear at the spanish high court in madrid later today, accused of being part of the terror cell that carried out attac

it raises questions about the competency of us navy's operations in the region. ier, this is the second such incident in the last few months, but is the fourth such incident between a us warship and another vessel in the last year. so some real concerns about the us navy and here in the world. but it is not clear what they do this collision. we hope to get those details from the us navy's public affairs department in the hours to come. karishma vaswani, thank you for joining us. we will keep you updated on any more developments. let's look at the latest developments in spain, now, following these terror attacks there. police in spain are exploring a possible link between thursday's attack on barcelona and the islamic state assaults on brussels airport last year. they're investigating an imam, abdelbaki es satty, who is thought to have radicalised the younger members of the cell that attacked las ramblas and cambrils. mark lobel reports. the suspected mastermind of the barcelona and a cambrils attacks, abdelbaki es satty, is the imam of this mosque in ripoll, north

the us navy vessel has collided with a merchant vessel, near singapore. stay with us on bbc news. hello. sunday yet again was a day of contrasting weather fortunes in the british isles. generally speaking, the further north and east you were, the more dry and fine was your day. the cloud filled in after a bright start in the south. eventually, the skies became pretty leaden so there was urgent work to be done in the fields, and then the rain arrived. a wet start to monday as well. mild underneath the blanket of cloud and rain. the cloud sitting low on the high ground of the south and south—west. further north and east, again, it's a bright start to the day, decent sunshine. a rather cool start to the day, given those clear skies. at least you have that sunshine. make the most of it. it will not last in all parts by any means at all. the general rule of thumb is to drive this rain ever further towards the north and east. it'll make slow progress, there's no doubt about it. here we are in the middle of the afternoon. things will have cheered up in the south

the us navy has yet to release the names. ed the collision? well, as you mentioned earlier, the head of operations for the us navy has put into effect a global pause on their fleet operationally, worldwide, following this incident, even that it may be a trend of multiple collisions, and with these deaths of the sailors in japan, as well as the missing ten sailors, they want to take a look at the practices, as well as the training of the fleet globally. there have been questions as to whether there has been an overexte nsion whether there has been an overextension of us military assets in this area of the world. the asia pacific theatre is very important strategically to the united states. it has got hot hotspots on the korean peninsula as well as in the south china sea where there is a big territorial dispute going on as well. and so what we do know, though, with the collision that happened between thejohn s mccain and the oil tanker is that the head of the navy said that as far as they know there is no intentionalfactors at p

it is the second serious collision involving a us navy ship within two months. oke to our south east asia correspondent karishma vaswani, and i asked her what more do we know. well, the information that's come through from the us navy's seventh fleet public affairs department is patchy at the very least. this is what we know at this stage. what we have been told is ten sailors are missing. five are reported to be injured. that's the information coming in from the public affairs department. the incident happened in the early hours this morning. we understand thejohn mccain uss destroyer was making a routine stop to singapore. this is very common for warships, a american warships in particular, in this part of the world. they are allies. while en route, it is not clear yet, it happened near singapore, in the straits of malacca. these are extremely congested waters, notjust because of trade, but because this is a very narrow body of water as well. it is still unclear at this stage what caused the incident. the collision occurred with a merchant vessel, a liberian fl

the pacific fleet. but these are quotes from some of the navy families contacted: in singapore, this maritime expert agrees the usis overstretched. if you look at all the demands that are put on the us navy in the middle east, in the persian gulf, and increasingly out here in the pacific, i mean, basically, we've got a 300 ship navy and we're asking it to do the job of a 400 ship or a50 ship navy. so you mayjust able up to see the outline of thejohn s mccain docked here behind me in singapore. the search and rescue operation continues here tonight. and then there is the question of how this all happened and that is a big and deeply disturbing question for the us navy. earlier i spoke to someone about who is to blame for the collision between the warship and the tanker. every accident can be prevented. we know the singapore strait is a very busy waterway. we have about 1000 vessels at any one point in time and the method behind the madness that is the singapore straits is this regime known as the traffic separation scheme, which separates vessels into two lanes, think of it asa vessels into two lanes, think of it

it happened near singapore in the strait. us navythe guided missile destroyer, the ussjohn mccain collided with a vehicle while the trip was transiting to a routine port visit in singapore. initial reports indicate the us warship sustained damage to her port side. we do know that the other vessel involved was a tanker sailing under a liberian flag. it was 183 metres long. the us warship was on routine operations and patrol in the south china sea. it was on its way to singapore. it is supporting security effo rts singapore. it is supporting security efforts in the region. it has done so efforts in the region. it has done so for some time. these incidents are very rare. but this is the second serious collision involving a us warship in as many months, as you said. the last one occurred injune. that was actually off the day of tokyo, japan's waters. that was the uss fitzgerald. it collided with a container ship, one in japanese waters. it sustained serious damage in several crew members were killed. investigations are still continuing i

in singapore, this maritime expert agrees the us navy is overstretched. k at all the demands that are put on the us navy in the middle east, and the persian gulf, and increasingly out here in the pacific, i mean, basically, we have a 300 ship navy and we are asking it to do the job ofa and we are asking it to do the job of a 400 ship or 450 ship navy. so you may just be of a 400 ship or 450 ship navy. so you mayjust be up to see the outline of the john you mayjust be up to see the outline of thejohn mccain dock here behind the singapore. the search and rescue operation continues the night. and then there is the question of how this all happen. and thatis question of how this all happen. and that is a big and deeply disturbing question the us. navy. —— question for the us navy. our correspondent james cook is in phoenix for us. it is only a few hours since donald trump made a statement on his policy for afghanistan. it is a u—turn on what he said during election time. james, lots of trump supporters around you. maybe not? ijust saw a dump trump sign. the do
