Samira hussain reports. Protests, rubber bullets, tear gas. This latest flare up is the largest since Ethnic Violence began back in may. These protesters were marching in the capital when they were met by Security Forces. Several dozens have been injured an internet ban imposed, a controversial Anti Insurgency law in effect, giving Security Forces full control of the state. This comes after photos emerged of the two teenagers who had been missing sincejuly. The bbc spoke with the girls father just last month he was hopeful to the end. Translation i the end.

Both communities say it is impossible to live with each other after all of these atrocities, making it hard to see when this conflict will end. Samir hussein, bbc news, deli. Authorities in glasgow have approved the uks First Official Consumption Room, allowing people to inject their own Illegal Drugs including heroin. The Scottish Government hopes it will reduce the countrys rate of drug related deaths, which is the highest in europe. Our scotland editor james cook has more. Im an addict. Do you mind me asking what drugs used over the years . Heroin and cocaine. Ona rainy on a rainy night in glasgow, its not hard to find people struggling on the edge of society. This is jayde she is 33. My ex partner died of drugs, my father, my sister. A lot of my friends have passed away. Somebody had overdosed the other day, and i had to save their life. Why do you do it . Because it numbs you, it makes you. I can block my past, my traumas out. Do you think the Consumption Room might have made a difference and might it make a difference in the future . I think it would make a massive difference in the future, aye, i think it would be a brilliant idea. This is the injection area. The plan is for this clinic to be expanded to include a room for people to inject their own drugs. You can see these mirrors are slightly you can see these mirrors are slightly tilted, not visible to the eye, slightly tilted, not visible to the eye, allowing the nurses to give people eye, allowing the nurses to give peorfle a eye, allowing the nurses to give people a bit of dignity whilst they inject people a bit of dignity whilst they inject is people a bit of dignity whilst they inect. , ,. ,. ,. ,. , inject. Is this similar to what a consumption inject. Is this similar to what a Consumption Room inject. Is this similar to what a Consumption Room would inject. Is this similar to what a Consumption Room would be l inject. Is this similar to what a i Consumption Room would be look inject. Is this similar to what a Consumption Room would be look like . Absolutely, the booths will look the samo the project is a response to a Scottish National emergency with more than a thousand people dying from drugs every year. I think it will reach a population that are experiencing high rates of drug related harms and help us reduce the harms. Will it save lives . We think for those individuals who use this service, we expect to see positive outcomes, including reduced mortality rates. There are concerns in this area about what the Consumption Room will mean for the community. But officials the say it will be better than the Current Situation and between 4 500 people are regularly injecting drugs in public in glasgow. But the uk government and some other critics say this plan is the wrong priority. Lets be clear, there are no safe ways to take drugs. What i would like to see is a balance of investment and while this is a worthwhile investment, we are only spending half a million year on rehab in glasgow that helps people get off drugs. Other countries have tried Consumption Rooms. We visited one in portugal and the Scottish Government says the evidence from abroad is that they do save lives. James cook, bbc news, glasgow. Earlier, i spoke to hugo faria, a psychologist and co ordinator at ares do pinhal in portugal a Nonprofit Ngo that has worked with drug users since 1986. We had the evidence of almost 50 overdoses happening in our site, and none of them was fatal. So this means that and not only in our site, or all over the world, we know that there is 1,000 overdoses happening on these kinds of facilities, and none no one died yet, so its very effective. The arguments and the concerns against it, of course, are that, you know, as you were just hearing in that clip, Somebody Saying that you shouldnt be seen to be encouraging this. More work should be going in to trying to stop people taking drugs in the first place. Theyre saying that theres no safe way to take drugs. Is it the fact that you think these places are needed, does that show a failure in the provisions in terms of addiction treatment, and in terms of trying to stop people going onto drugs in the first place . No, not at all. So this means that there is a specific kind of population that has no possibility of having drugs in a safer condition, in a clinical condition, so that this means that these people probably will never be inside of the system. So, providing this kind of services, and i agree that this is not the solution thats one of my main concerns that people expect that this could be the solution of the Drug Use Problem it is not, it is only a piece of the puzzle. So many people have to have to Work Together like the police, the social services, the Health Services and look at this problem, the Drug Use Problem, in the same way. And at the same way, what about drug dealers . Do you have any worries that your facilities attract dealers . Or how can you you tell even, i suppose, the difference between a dealer and a normal user . Well, in ourfacility, its easy. They have to use to stay inside. So if they are a dealer, well, if they use it, if they are a dealer, they can come. But we only allow people that want to use drugs inside. But i believe that in our law, in portugal, we have the conditions to distinguish who are criminal and who are not criminals. So we have the Decriminalisation Law so its still illegal to use drugs and to have drugs in portugal. But those who have left after ten days of daily possession, they are not criminalised. So, yes, we have no concerns with dealers, that is not our business. We are health technicians. We provide health care and social care. Hugo ferrier there, from portugal. To canada now, where prime Ministerjustin Trudeau has apologised after the former speaker of the house of Commons Chamber praised a nazi veteran in parliament. On tuesday, speaker anthony rota, a member of mr trudeaus liberal party, resigned days after describing a former nazi soldier from ukraine as a canadian hero. The comments were made while ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky was present. A short time ago, Prime Minister trudeau announced he would address the canadian house, to offer parliaments Unreserved Apologies for the incident. Heres a little of what he had to say. This was a mistake that has deeply embarrassed parliament and canada. All of us who are in this house on friday regret deeply having stood and clapped even though we did so unaware of the context. It was a horrendous violation of the memory of the millions of people who died in the holocaust, and it was deeply, deeply painfulfor in the holocaust, and it was deeply, deeply painful forjewish people. In the holocaust, and it was deeply, deeply painfulforjewish people. I also want to reiterate how deeply sorry canada is for the situation it has put president zelensky and the ukrainian delegation in. It is extremely troubling to think that this egregious error is being politcised by russia and its supporters to provide false propaganda about what ukraine is fighting for. Around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. Bringing you different stories from across the uk. Harry burns started as an apprentice at trent barton in 2011, but now hes an award winner. Hes been named the best in the business after going up against Rival Boss Companies at a skills challenge. You go day to day doing yourjob to the best that you can. But to compete against other people that you would presume are better than yourself to actually go compete and beat them people, its nice to know that youre good at what youre doing day to day. So the Inspection One that i did was inspecting a vehicle, picking up faults with it. Are they 0k, are they not . And then, categorising it to the inspection manual, and the marking down what failure that would be in the category. But theres other tests stripping down engines, tyres, and all sorts of air valves and braking systems. Harrys gone from being an apprentice to helping train new ones. Trent barton has upped its investment this year, and has taken on more than double the usual amount of apprentices. Its nice to make a difference, and ifeel like the position im in, i can make a difference. For more stories from across the uk, head to the bbc news website. Youre live with bbc news. Now for a discovery that could shed new light on one of the mysteries of the universe namely why it even exists and why it is made up of matter. Scientists at cern have been investigating the opposite of matter anti matter. They wanted to see what happens when anti matter is exposed to gravity. Does it fall down or up . Our science correspondent pallab ghosh had exclusive access to the lab. At a lab near geneva, scientists are making a shadowy substance thats the very opposite of what our world is made from. Antimatter is just the coolest, most mysterious stuff you can imagine. Its taken 30 years and £1 billion to build a lab that can make and store large amounts of it. What we have here is the actual nerve center of alpha g. Jeffrey hangst wants to find out whether Antimatter Falls up or down. Our world is made of atoms, the simplest is hydrogen, which consists of a positively charged proton in the middle, a negatively charged electron orbiting it. Anti hydrogen is the opposite negative in the middle and a positive version of the electron around it. Theres only one place in the Known Universe where antihydrogen atoms exist for more than a fraction of a second and its here. Inside are thousands of antihydrogen atoms, kept in place by a magnetic field. Antiproton request. The team turn off the magnet to see whether the antihydrogen atoms fall up or down. We found that Antimatter Falls towards the earth in the same way that equivalent matter would. Is that not a bit of a disappointing result . Well, obviously, if it went up, theres a nobel prize, right . It goes down, everyone says, yeah, i told you so but the work is the same, you have to do the same Due Diligence either way. Although the results show that theres no difference between the way matter and antimatter fall, researchers are going to continue to see if theres even the slightest variation, because that could still be really important. Just after the big bang, matter the stuff our universe is made from and its exact opposite anti matter existed in equal amounts. They should have combined and cancelled each other out, leaving nothing but light, but here we are. We dont understand how our universe came to be matter dominated. And so this is what motivates our experiments. We measure the fundamental properties of anti matter, and that might be a clue towards how our theories need to be revised. The scientists at the anti matter lab know that the current theory has to change in order to answer one of the biggest questions why the universe exists at all. Palash ghosh, bbc news, at the cerns anti matter factory outside geneva. Pallab explained to me why this discovery is so important. They call it the anti matter factory. They work shifts, eight hour shifts, 2a hours a day, seven days a week. And it looks like a Production Facility with lots of Extra Electronics to monitor it, to create the anti matter, the hydrogen, and in quantities that are greater than anywhere else in the Known Universe. They store it, they bottle it in a magnet because if it came into contact with our world, it would be destroyed. And then, they let it go to find out whether it goes up or down. So a tour de force, in terms of building an experiment. And the result would have been incredible if they found that anti matter dropped upwards but instead, they found it dropped down. But thats still a significant result. Are they a bit disappointed that it didnt . Well, as you heard professor hank say, he would have won a nobel prize if it fell upwards. But its not the end of the story for him. He describes it as wriggle room because the uncertainty in the experiment suggests that theres a possibility that anti matter still falls down at a rate thats different from matter. Now, researchers are desperately looking for any difference between matter, which our world is made from, and anti matter. Because, as you saw in the item, they exist in equal amounts. They should have wiped each other out. But we exist, and its trying to answer that puzzle, and what they think is that there must be some difference between the two. So thats why theyre doing this incredible experiment. What about this is one for Science Fiction fans, i suppose what about the ability to harness anti matter . Is that still just Science Fiction . Well, theres lots of Science Fiction uses of anti matter, like kind of on star trek, to use it as a power source to go to other worlds. And in some novels that thieves steal anti matter to make a bomb that would blow up the world. Alas, those things arent around the corner. Well, perhaps thats a good thing, in terms of blowing up the world, because it takes too much energy to create anti matter. And you getjust a few thousand atoms which is a lot in the cosmic sense, but quite a little in terms of having a fuel source. So i dont think theres any blowing up of worlds or travelling to other worlds just yet. A generation of children will be impacted if the crisis of absenteeism in schools is not tackled urgently thats the view of the childrens commissioner for england. At least one in five pupils is now persistently absent, meaning they are missing 10 or more of their lessons. A committee of mps is recommending a series of measures including a National Roll out of attendance mentors working with families. New guidance on fines to make sure parents are treated the same across england, and more support for pupils with special Educational Needs and disabilities. Bra nwen jeffreys reports. Morning lets get you in quickly a new school year but they are still dealing with the legacy of the pandemic. Thats it. Four out of ten pupils here have struggle to attend. Come to the phone for a minute, lovely. I meant to come and get you at break time. Sarah kennett is the troubleshooter, dealing with anxiety and other Mental Health issues, focused on those at risk of not turning up. Ill come to 112 and ill walk you through, 0k . Ive got several students that i monitor daily, so what im going to do now is to check in with them, see how the day has gone. Schools say attitudes have changed since covid. Some families are less committed to school. Sarahs job is to work out if a problem that can be solved. They learn to trust you and you just get to know them. It sounds really an obvious thing but, over time, you just get to know which ones have real issues with certain things and which ones are just trying to avoid something. So, this week, how do you feel, because youve got all day monday . Shes been working with ava, who is waiting to be assessed for autism and struggled with severe anxiety. It is pretty hard going. It can overwhelm people. And what does overwhelmed feel like when its happening . Its sort of like, depends if it turns into more anxiety or if its just too much. Hands up if you managed to write one so difficult your partner couldnt crack it. Some pupils who have always loved school have started struggling. Ettie may began Secondary School during the pandemic and, for more than a year, she regularly refused to go. She would literallyjust scream. Couldnt get her dressed, sometimes refused to get out of bed. Was it covid and being at home, do you think, that triggered ettie may� s anxieties . Yeah, definitely. Thats when it all began. Definitely that. Spend a couple of days in schools and you realise just how complicated this is, because they are dealing with a whole pile of issues, Mental Health, financial pressures on families, poor housing. So there isnt a simple solution. But engaging with families seems to provide the best results. Across this group of schools, they are worried about covids legacy. Weve got a group of children who are attending and have attended less well for a considerable amount of time, and that is potentially creating a lost generation, as a result of the impact of the pandemic upon children here. The end of another full day for ettie may. Shes turned a corner, but schools worry others may never fully return. Branwen jeffreys, bbc news, folkestone. Youre watching bbc news. A teenage boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder, after a 15 Year Old Girl was stabbed to death in south london on her way to school this morning. She had just got off a bus with a group of friends when she was attacked. She died at the scene. Police say the boy who may have known the victim was arrested shortly afterwards. Daniel sandford reports. A crime scene on one of the main roads through the london borough of croydon. A bus that was full of schoolchildren at around 8. 30am, and a tent at the spot where a 15 Year Old Girl was stabbed in the neck and died before she could be taken to hospital. She was a private schoolgirl and witnesses say she may have had a knock it with a boy who tried to give her flowers. The bus driver and passers by tried to save her and herfriends had to be comforted by strangers. These two 15 year olds who were with the young girl are devastated. One wants to know what they couldve done differently to keep her alive. Detective said a 17 year old boy had been arrested. He remains in custody and will be questioned by detectives. We remain in the early stages of the investigation. However, based on what we know so far, we are not looking for anyone else in connection with this offence. From our initial inquiries, we believe the suspect may have known the victim. Witnesses say the weapon used in the attack looked like a long knife with a jagged edge. Teenage stabbings have remained a persistent problem in the capital. What was unusual this time is that it was a teenage girl on her way to school. Of all the homicides in england and wales in the year to march last year, the most common age group for victims was 16 24, with 122 deaths but there were 69 victims who were teenagers between the age of 13 19. In 74 of those deaths, the weapon used was a knife or sharp implement. The head of londons main police force, sir mark rowley, went to the scene this afternoon. Homicides of teenagers in the capital peaked two years ago and fell back last year, but are on the rise again. The impact this has had on the community is immense. Its devastating that another young life has been taken. We in the Community Stand with our partners and the family in honouring the grief and mourning. Old palace ofjohn whitgift school, where the girljust started year 11, her gcse year, said the whole school was deeply shocked by the senseless and tragic death of a much loved and valued friend and pupil. Daniel sandford, bbc news, croydon. Many historic cathedrals are known for their incredible architecture, but now Canterbury Cathedral is the venue for something even more impressive. The walls of the building are being used as a canvas for a spectacular light show as artists try to bring the renaissance to life. Simonjones reports. Let there be light. And let there be sound. The aim to take the audience on a physical and emotionaljourney transforming their Sense Of Place, and space. The theme, a journey into the renaissance world, a time of major change in the cultural, artistic, political and economic spheres, with Canterbury Cathedral acting as the canvas. As an artist, i dont think you can get better. Its a remarkable place to work. But actually, its not what we do with it, its the reaction that the audience have when they come here, thats the bit that makes it special. An artwork is an artwork in the studio until you put it in front of an audience. And when you put in a building like this, its really those three parts, ourselves, the artwork and the building and the Sense Of Place here. Its the second year that the cathedral has embraced light and sound like this on a huge scale. Last years show focused on space and science. Those behind the display say theyre a bit like the cathedral� s famous stained glass windows, telling stories with the help of colour and light. Its quite a contrast to the more tranquil atmosphere of the daytime, but the Evening Shows are expected to bring a new audience to the cathedral. Luxmuralis attracts people who wouldnt necessarily declare that they have an interest, either in the arts or in organised religion. Last year, when we did a similar event by the company, we had 12,000 people, and over 60 of them were coming to Canterbury Cathedral for the first time. Its great, because it raises the profile both of the church and of the festival. So the invitation to the audience is to indulge their senses in a setting unlike any other. Simon jones, bbc news. Thats all from me, christian will be here at the top of the our. Now heres the weather with helen willetts. Good evening. Weve had a tale of contrasts weather wise today. Weve had lots of sunshine in the far north of scotland, and in the south and east where its been quite warm. But this defined swirl of Cloud Denotes storm agnes a well developed storm, the first of the season, which is still spreading its influence of very windy weather, and wet weather further north and east. Weve had over 20 millimetres of rain, for example, in parts of Northern Ireland, and weve had gusts of wind, 50 60mph, close to 70 in some exposed parts. As i say, weve still got that storm to bring stronger winds further north, as well, so still potential for some Hazardous Travel conditions as we go through the rest of the evening and overnight. The detail about the weather warnings, thats on the website. So, still some heavy rains around as we go through the evening, particularly for scotland. Squally showers following back through england, wales, and Northern Ireland ahead of it, yes, just one or two showers to come. But those strong winds for many areas, and of course, with those strong winds, it will hold the temperatures up through the night. But you can see the rain slowly clearing away and, by morning, theres a lot more dry weather around, the wind starting to ease a little but look at that, 12 14 celsius, those are almost the same as the daytime highs at this time of year. But a brighter, drier start for some tomorrow morning, the winds having moderated a little bit. Therell be quite a bit of cloud around, but that should break up to reveal some dry and bright weather. Until later, weve got more rain coming in from the west and from the southwest, as well. But ahead of that, 17 20 is quite possible once again not quite as high as those temperatures we saw in the south and east today. And then, through the evening and overnight, weve got The Rain Pushing in from the south, the rain coming across from the west, as well. So, some rain for many overnight thursday into friday, but then, that should slowly clear out the way. So slightly cooler as we head towards friday morning, particularly in the north. But otherwise, further north, weve got sunny spells and scattered showers, and blustery winds on friday. The rainy or the Showery Rain In The South should clear away, and then, actually it looks like a good deal of dry and reasonably bright weather on friday, which will again lift our temperatures a little bit above the average for late september. As for the weekend, we do have more rain coming in later saturday to start sunday its a very changeable picture, but as i say, for the details on the warnings, please head to the website. Hello, im christian fraser. This is the context. We are past the water shed, so i can say this. Show me a single self respecting man that would like to climb into bed with that woman, ever ever.
