Three people, who were killed yesterday in the turkish town of akcakale have been buried. We can join our International Correspondent 0rla guerin whos there for us now. Through much of the day we have been hearing heavy outgoing artillery and mortar fire. Hearing heavy outgoing artillery and mortarfire. The turkish hearing heavy outgoing artillery and mortar fire. The turkish Authorities Say they have advanced into northern syria, up to about five miles. President erdogan says he is unconcerned about the international condemnation, but it is growing. Turkey is already accused of killing innocent civilians, damaging infrastructure and causing huge numbers to flee and all of this while its supposed to be creating a safe zone for more than 4 million syrians to go home to. Here is turkeys response. Its forces continue to pound North Eastern syria, creating a new landscape of the displaced. 100,000 people and counting, injust landscape of the displaced. 100,000 people and counting, in just three days. But turkey is paying the price. State honours today for two civilians killed next to the border. Seen here as martyrs in operation peace springs. 0ne coffin is child size for a baby boy called mohammed, just nine months old. A victim of rocket fire by Syrian Kurdish forces. The first retaliation for tu rkeys forces. The first retaliation for turkeys massive assault on them. And here, mohammeds family, join together in boundless grief. In the cruellest of ironies, they are Syrian Refugees themselves. This little girl cannot hold back her tea rs. Little girl cannot hold back her tears. They called on god to bring strength to turkish soldiers and bring a quick victory with few casualties. But then, a final journey to the border town of akcakale. At the local mosque, friday prayers became a time of mourning for mohammed, his family fled syria six years ago. His mother fatima, gave birth to six girls before having a boy. She said she waited 17 years for her only son. Now he has gone on two of her daughters are in intensive care. Her husband, battling his grief. His anger directed at band kurdish separatists in turkey and Kurdish Militia in syria. I call on god to bring them failure, to block their path and not to forgive them. Prayers are being said here now for baby mohammed. When his family came to turkey, they were hoping against hope, to find safety. Instead, they we re hope, to find safety. Instead, they were caught up in another round of wherefore and mohammed was killed inside his own home. Warfare. As he was mourned here, other children we re he was mourned here, other children were being mourned in syria, including a 12 year old boy, killed bya including a 12 year old boy, killed by a turkish rocket attack yesterday. Mohammed was taken away for burial, and life cut short that leaves a broken family. Back across the border in syria, a car bomb in another city and Islamic State said it carried out the attack, which killed at least three civilian. This is what many have feared and the kurds predicted. Islamic state taking advantage of the chaos caused by turkeys invasion. And tonight, we found more convoys heading for the borderfor an we found more convoys heading for the border for an operation that has been widely condemned abroad, but is strongly supported at home. The us treasury secretary has spoken tonight of drafting powerful new sanctions against turkey. Lets speak to our north america editorjon sopel. So potential sanctions, but many have blamed us policy for actually triggering the assault . A lot of people saying American Foreign policy is careering all over the place and we are getting very mixed messages. It is clear Donald Trumps phone call with president erdogan last weekend paved the way for the removal of american troops. Since then donald trump has been saying it is time to get american troops out of the middle east and out of these walls costing trillions of dollars. Yesterday an announcement that more american servicemen being sent to saudi arabia and donald trump said he would like to broker a deal between the kurds and the tax. Turkish sources in washington saying that is not going to happen. We have had the threat of sanctions from the treasury secretary that Steve Mnunchin says could shut down the turkish economy, but what will trigger them, we dont know. You get the slight impression the white house are calling in the locksmiths to put on a couple of extra boats on the stable door, even though the horse has long since disappeared from view. Jon sopel, thank you very much. The eu has agreed to intensify brexit talks with the uk over the coming days. The move came after a meeting in brussels, described by both sides as constructive. Theres been a glimmer of optimism over a possible deal after yesterdays meeting between Boris Johnson and irelands Prime Minister. But mrjohnson said today that reaching an agreement is not a done deal. Lets join our deputy political editorjohn pienaar, whos in westminster for us now. Fragile hopes of a brexit deal have risen. The value of the pound rose along with them and so did the planning and scheming across both sides of the houses of commons at the prospect of some sort of progress being made. Endless recriminations have been going on between the uk and the eu, each side blaming the other for the brexit deadlock. But tonight borisjohnson and eu leaders are daring to believe they might find their way towards an agreement. The speculation and relics have started again and they suggest that compromises could soon be on offer. Still a work in progress, but hes trying, and now borisjohnson may, just may, be getting somewhere in sketching out a brexit deal. After his show of optimism alongside irelands leader yesterday, today on a school visit it was time to look on the bright side. Both of us can see a pathway to a deal but that doesnt mean its a done deal. There is a way to go. Its important now that our negotiators, on both sides, get into proper talks. 0ne to one, the two leaders had traded ideas, changed the mood, cleared the way for intensive negotiations on terms to be laid on the table behind closed doors. I think at this stage, probably the less said the better. Focus today very much switches to brussels, where secretary of state barclay is going to meet with michel barnier, and i anticipate that that will lead to some more detailed proposals being laid down. Next stop, brussels. Brexit secretary Stephen Barclay met the eus chief negotiator today. The mood visibly positive. Though the path to agreement looked steep. Brexit is like climbing a mountain. We need vigilance, determination and patience. Are we near the top . But what about the obstacles . He wouldnt say. Are you going to negotiate over the weekend . Would parties including Boris Johnsons dup allies have a veto over northern irelands future status . No answers today. Northern ireland will be part of future uk trade deals, but the uk might drop plans for customs checks on the island of ireland when there is an eu border there. These are the details that could make or break a deal in tough negotiations, but in cyprus the Eu Council President was clear, giving up is not an option. Of course, there is no guarantee of success and the time is practically up. But even the slightest chance must be used. Here at westminster, the diaries and calendars for next week are covered in red ink. There is the big eu leaders summit, then on saturday a special session of the house of commons. Expect a vote on a deal, if there is one, and a push by mps who want to see brexit decided by another referendum. Meanwhile, if there is no agreement, even if there is a deal, the Prime Minister may struggle to avoid another brexit extension. The last thing he wants, a delay he mayjust have to accept. John pienaar, bbc news, westminster. Meanwhile, theres a warning today by Industry Leaders in five key sectors of the economy, of a serious risk to manufacturing competitiveness not from a no deal brexit but in borisjohnsons current brexit proposals. Theyve written to cabinet ministers, asking for reassurance that Industry Needs will still be prioritised. 0ur economics editor faisal islam has this exclusive report. A warning signal from a cross industry. Unprecedented concerns seen by the bbc in a private joint letter from manufacturing sectors employing over one million workers that had broadly backed the original plan negotiated by theresa may. The letter was sentjointly by five Manufacturing Industry bodies covering aerospace, car makers, the chemicals industry, Food Industry and pharmaceuticals. It said the Prime Ministers wider new plan for a brexit deal that moves the uk away from european regulations created a serious risk to manufacturing competitiveness that will result in huge new costs and disruption to uk firms. It went on the plan has the potential to risk consumer and food safety and confidence and access to overseas markets. This is a very, very important moment. Were absolutely clear as industries we want to see a deal, no deal would be the worst possible outcome for us, but it cant be just any deal. The governments new approach in brussels negotiations seeks to regain full freedoms from eu regulators. In factories up and down the country, high tech parts like this engine blade are made to european standards and weve long known manufacturers are no great fans of no deal brexit. The significance of todays joint intervention is that theyre criticising borisjohnsons proposed brexit deal. Concerned about what will happen if the uk diverges too much from european regulation, that the trade off will be in jobs and investment in this sector. This leicestershire manufacturer of aviation parts says his industry hasnt asked for divergence. By walking away from from regulatory alignment in aerospace we are creating one hell of a problem that we dont have today. The industry fears the government is dropping its aim to continue after brexit, participating in three key eu agencies including for chemicals. At this plant in west brom they want to continue this testing of every chemical in order to send the data to the eu safety regulator. This is not what the government went to, this is not what we backed. We backed a deal with mutual recognition, we did not back a deal with divergence. The government said it was seeking a best in class Free Trade Agreement with the eu, and was committed to high standards, but those industries that want to stay integrated with europe have joined together to say that the is an experiment that doesnt work for them. Faisal islam, bbc news. Police have arrested a 15 year old boy this evening on the suspicion of murdering another 15 year old on his way home from school. Baptista adjei was stabbed while still in his uniform outside a mcdonalds in stratford, east london yesterday afternoon.

Mo farah says he feels let down by his former coach alberto salazar, whos been banned forfour years following a series of doping allegations. But the olympic champion, whos in chicago for this weekends marathon, stopped short of being openly critical of the man who coached him until 2017. Alberto salazar is appealing against his ban. Heres our Sports Editor dan roan. Alberto salazar was the man who transformed sir mo farah into one of the worlds greatest athletes, but last week the coach was kicked out of the sport in disgrace, banned for four years after being found guilty of various doping violations. Today farah appeared relaxed in chicago, but his mood soon changed when forced to address the scandal for the first time. Its very disappointing you guys are going at it again and the headlines farah, farah, farah. As i said, there is no allegation against me. I have done nothing wrong, lets be clear here, this is about alberto salazar. Are you pleased hes been kicked out of the sport, mo . As you say, i have no tolerance for anyones whos crossed the line, and from day one, dan, i said that all along. I get tested all the time. And im happy to be tested any time, anywhere, and my sample to be used as a search or whatever they need to do, and to keep it and freeze it, theres not much more i can do. Today, nike shut down its elite 0regon project where farah trained an unfair burden on its athletes. In 2015 allegations of unethical practises by salazar were made in a bbc panorama, he has denied wrongdoing and there is no allegations against farah but does he regret by standing by salazar for two years after the accusations were made . He assured me at the time these are just allegations, this is not true, there is nothing, there is no allegation you, and he promised me and it hasnt been true. Gl farahs trust frustration was mostly directed at the media. There isa mostly directed at the media. There is a clear agenda da to this, i have seen it many, many times and i know where you are going with it. I have seen it with sterling, rues which hamilton, i cant lewis hamilton, i cant win. Hamilton, i cant lewis hamilton, i cant win. This has been a farfrom ideal build up for farah as he prepares to deed fend his marathon title here on the streets of chicago on sunday, today he cast himself as a victim, but given his Long Association with salazar the questions over his judgments and legacy will not go away any time soon. Dan roan, bbc news, chicago. Dramatic changes are needed to the way people live their lives, if the uk is to reduce Carbon Emissions to net zero by its target of 2050. Thats according to a report from the committee that advises the government on how to cut emissions. It says ministers need to provide more incentives to help people switch to lower carbon lifestyles. Heres our chief environment correspondentjustin rowlatt. The police cleared most of extinction rebellions makeshift campsites today, insisting they only occupy trafalgar square. The protestors a re demanding carbon cuts. But actually uk Carbon Emissions have gone down 42 since 1990. Thats as cleaner energy has been introduced as less is manufactured here in the uk.

There has to be a major shift to public transport. 0ur homes need to be better insulated, our Heating Systems low carbon. The report says well also have to eat less meat and dairy and drive down emissions from agriculture. Some cows produce less methane than others. Meet the low carbon cow. The difference between the most polluting animal and the least polluting animal is about a0 . Our hope is to keep breeding using these less polluting animals. So youre trying to breed a kind of race of super low carbon cows. Ultimately, thats the goal. Thats the goal . Yes. But the report warns we will only be willing to make these changes with incentives from government, and by pushing up the prices of high Carbon Products and activities. Chris stark, the head of the committee on climate change, the body that commissioned the Behaviour Change report, says the government needs to raise its game. They have a plan of sorts, but not nearly at the level of ambition that would be required. Every bit of policy now needs to be refreshed. The government told the bbc today it is going further and faster on cutting carbon than any other nation. But the reports recommendation would mean huge changes for us all. The protestors here would welcome that but will the public . Justin rowlatt, bbc news, london. And you can see more on this story on Panorama Climate change what can we do .
