dies at the age of 70. sport and for a full round—up, from the bbc sport centre, hello from the bbc sport centre mark mccall, saracens director of rugby criticised the "shameful" treatment of his captain owen farrell in what he believes should be a wake—up call for the game. farrell ——who also skippers england, will miss the men's six nations after deciding to take a break from international rugby in order to "prioritise his and his family's mental well—being". he will though continue to play club rugby. mccall says just like england head coach steve borthwick, he's fully behind farrell's decision to step away. social to step away. media we have zero control over. social media we have zero control over. but for me this began in the mainstream media, and the narrative that was created around on from everybody, and soaking up from everybody. that is what happened, i think everybody will, somewhere in their heads, agree with him, and then there was a pylon on social media, but it was created on the mainstream media, but there is some in the industry that need to look at themselves. the european action continues tonight with six british teams playing in the europa and europa conference leagues. liverpool can top their group if they win at home to austrian side lask, and toulouse fail to beat union st gilloise. that would mean liverpool would enter the knockouts at the last 16 stage instead of the last 32, and boss jurgen klopp wants the anfield crowd to help them achieve their goal. that's what i expect us to do, a european night, a proper european nights at anfield, going for it. i will line up a team, minus the injured players on a team that will go for it and enjoy the game and fight for a result. and if the vines want to do that as well that will be helpful. rangers go into their match against aris limassol of cyprus at ibrox on a nine—match unbeaten run. and a win tonight, would secure progress to the knockout rounds. they're currently second in their group, behind leaders real betis, who are away at sparta prague. also tonight, brighton are away at aek athens... knowing a win will see them progress into the knockouts, as is the case for west ham who need to beat serbian side batch—kah topola. and in the europa conference league, aston villa can leapfrog opponents legia warzawa and go top of their group if they win. aberdeen, who can't progress, are away at hjk helsinki. looking to international football now, where's there's two rounds of games remaining in the women's nations league group stage. scotland are away to belgium and wales are at home to iceland, both looking to avoid relagation into league b. northern ireland are in albania, and could still secure promotion to league a via playoffs. for england, there's a crucial game against the netherlands at wembley. jo currie has more from st georges park. the lionesses find themselves in a sticky situation, they are third in the woman's nation sleep group, with two games to play. quite for next summers european games are out of their hands. they need to beat the dutch at wendy tomorrow and win away at scotland and tuesday and hope other results go their way if to talk to group and give team gp any chance of qualifying for next years on the pics. millie bright is out with injury, and goalkeeper mary earps will where the captains are in bed while lauren hemp was where her 50th england cap. it's a first time england have paid up wimbley since when it trophy earlier this year. but obviously qualification is important. ronnie o'sullivan is still on course for a record—extending eighth uk snooker championship title, after winning a tense match against robert milkins in york. o'sullivan was 2—0 down before he built a 5—3 lead, only for milkins to force a deciding frame but o'sullivan took it to reach the quarterfinals. where he'll face zhou yuelong, who beatjohn higgins 6—3. higgins failed to get going in the match and a break of 63 took zhou through. to watch all the action in york head over to the bbc sport website and app now, where not only can you watch that's on bbc.co.uk/sport, where you can also get all the latest sports news. the mother of two of the final child hostages still in gaza — has spoken of her ordeal. 16—year—old aisha and 18—year—old bilal, both muslims from southern israel's bedouin community, remain in captivity, after being taken with their father and older brother. our correspondent anna foster reports. aisha still hasn't come home yet. each day, as more hostage children are released, her name has been missing from the list. so too her brother, bilal. it's been 55 days of waiting. this is the last picture this woman saw of her sons from hamas�*s media channels, held prisoner. in this bedouin community, women can't appear on camera but this is her voice. translation: i am asking hamas to bring back my children. - enough is enough. every night i feel bad. i can't take this any more. i'm losing my mind. naeema often had tears in her eyes when we were talking and you can hear in her voice the emotions, the fear and the anger, and right now, most of all, the desperation as she waits for her children to be released the way the others have been. translation: why does | hamas not set them free? why does israel not call for their release, like it did with others? aisha is 16, bilal is 18, and hamza is 22. their father is diabetic and suffers from hypertension. he takes injections. why were they not released? i can't live it, i am so tired of this tragedy. the children's uncle, ali, has a clear message for those negotiating the releases. translation: the government always gives us of the same answer, - that it's all in the hands of hamas, but no, you are the state, insist, you should insist. we are not jealous of anyone, we are happy that they've been returned, may they all come back, but it can't be right that there are adults in the groups who have been returned while a girl is left behind in captivity. another day of ceasefire has brought fresh hope to this family as they pray aisha and bilal, among the last child hostages, in gaza will soon be free. anna foster, bbc news, rahat. lior peri's father haim is still being held hostage by hamas. i spoke to him earlier. he told me he was alarmed by the talk of returning to the war. the last few days, the last six days, i think, when ever since the hostages started to be released, it's a great relief for all of us. we know most of the hostages. and we are extremely happy to see anybody who walks out of gaza, but also a lot of stress upon us because we don't know if we're going to be next. my father is 79 years old, is in a group of old people that doesn't have a lot of time. and the waiting is harder and harder every day, especially since we don't know if he will be inside this this returning process. i'm going to put on to the screen an image you've just sent us of you on the porch with your father as you wait through these excruciating days. how do you manage, with those twin emotions you were just describing, the elation for the families when they have found out that their loved ones are being returned, while disappointment for all of you, your relatives, not on any list? i don't think disappointment is the right word because we are as i said, we are we are really happy to see anybody coming back. our problem is that we hear too much talk about ending the ceasefire, which for us, that's the real devastating news since since the ceasefire began, we have no dead soldiers and plenty of hostages coming back. so we cannot understand how come there is any reason to stop it. this is what we are trying to tell to the government. there's no frustration in seeing other people coming through. on the contrary, we are we are happy that this process is taking place. we just need our government to hold strong and hold steady and keep the process. because we don't see any reason why it should stop now. do you fear that it might? because a lot of the indications, even the last couple of hours, underlining the fragility, the possibility of this war, restarting in in a matter of hours. yeah, exactly. i mean, the only thing we hearfrom our government in the last few days is, "ok, let's finish this ceasefire and go back to the fighting," because that's the only method we've been getting. not not us. but that's what our government is being telling to the media, that they are eager to go back and fight. we really don't understand how can you go back and fight if you have the opportunity to release the hostages? that's the only objective of the war. there's nothing of this all campaign. that's the only reason you went to it in the first place. so it's really it's really bothering us. and it's we are very frustrated, mainly because the thing we hear from the government. the former labour chancellor, alistair darling has died at the age of 70. following labour's landslide 1997 election win, lord darling served in the cabinet for 13 years under tony blair and gordon brown, and helped steer the uk through the financial crisis in 2008. the ex—edinburgh mp also led the better together campaign in 2014's scottish independence referendum. a statement issued on behalf of his family called lord darling a "much—loved husband of margaret and beloved father of calum and anna". live now to blair mcdougall who was the head strategist, �*better together�* campaign for scotland. thank you for being on the programme today. a sad day for you and so many others, your reaction to this news that has coming? we others, your reaction to this news that has coming?— that has coming? we were all devastated — that has coming? we were all devastated by. _ that has coming? we were all devastated by. when - that has coming? we were all devastated by. when anyone | that has coming? we were all. devastated by. when anyone who that has coming? we were all - devastated by. when anyone who works with someone for long periods of time in a political campaign might you become comrades in arms, but for us the team in the better together camping had all been talking together on the phone today, first michael was really loved and he was loved because he was so calm and wise but also incredibly loyal to us as a team. and i think you heard that again and again in tributes to him today talking about his decency and i think that is right you are exactly right, that frees calmness in a crisis has been repeated by so many and he was there during the financial crisis but also the line of a ride, financial crisis but also the line ofa ride, good humour, perhaps people watching remembering alistair darling that will come to the forefront but certainly are minor forefront but certainly are minor for people who knew them. it was right, i was talking to our press officers earlier, the day after alistair darling seem to perform very well in the television debates, there was an opinion poll that we had a big uptick in support because of his performance, the press officer ran off to speak to him about it and his response was" well, it would probably go back down at some point as well", so he had a scent fantastic sense of humour but it was cracker dry. it was very west of scotland, door, presbyterian and its form, but he was hilarious, and as you say, i think the sober click image, i think people might be surprised underneath it was a really warm and funny man.— warm and funny man. interesting they talk about the — warm and funny man. interesting they talk about the debates _ warm and funny man. interesting they talk about the debates with _ warm and funny man. interesting they talk about the debates with asser - talk about the debates with asser hammond, people talk about them as it is effective politician, and it probably includes his memories of debates like that but in terms of his effectiveness as a politician, because he annoyed gordon brown in an interview, it hit the headlines the scale of the financial crisis was clear, according to a newspaper we had arguably the worst economic challenges in 60 years, it infuriated vern brown at the time but it proved to be correct, didn't he? he but it proved to be correct, didn't he? , ., ., he? he did, you mention in the introduction _ he? he did, you mention in the introduction his _ he? he did, you mention in the introduction his status - he? he did, you mention in the introduction his status as - he? he did, you mention in the introduction his status as a - introduction his status as a survivor in the cabinet, his work during the financial crisis, a few politicians can say they run it camping that nonchalantly change the country but making sure it still exists. running through all of that first michael was a man of integrity, he took the long view of things he was cautious and thoughtful in his response to absolute everything and anything that comes from within, people talk about politicians having a hinterland, for him his hinterland was his family, he lights up talking about his kids. his wife and him were always spoken about as a inseparable team and that i think is why he was able to have such intercountry and always do what you thought was right. obviously, a sense of public duty but the feeling that she was grounded in the life of outside politics, ironically, it maybe was the thing that enabled him to make such decisions again and again and call them right. we have to leave it there _ again and call them right. we have to leave it there but _ again and call them right. we have to leave it there but thank - again and call them right. we have to leave it there but thank you - to leave it there but thank you very much for those memories and that tribute and joining us here on bbc news. throughout the course of today we have heard more memories and tributes about henry kissinger. he was a towering yet deeply controversial figure, one of the best known statesmen of the twentieth century. henry kissinger, the former us secretary of state, has died at the age of 100. he advised a dozen presidents and pioneered the concept of shuttle diplomacy. in the 1970s, he reached out to china, and won the nobel peace prize. but critics have also claimed he propped up friendly dictatorships and have accused him of war crimes. james landale looks back on his extraordinary life. thank you for being here. to some, henry kissinger was one of the cold war�*s most influential statesmen. the former us president george bush said america had lost one of its most dependable and distinctive voices on foreign affairs. ..henry kissinger for war crimes... to others he was a war criminal whose ruthless defence of american interests cost thousands of lives. he was born heinz kissinger in germany. his jewish family fled the nazis for america in 1938, but the young henry, as he became, returned to europe fighting with the us army. in peace time the soldier became a scholar at harvard university. today, i'm pleased to announce the first appointment of the white house staff... it was president nixon who brought him into government, first as national security advisor, then secretary of state. kissinger drove america's re—engagement with communist china, paying secret visits to its leaders, paving the way for an historic first visit by a us president in 1972. today, china's foreign affairs spokesman said kissinger had been a good old friend of the chinese people. he sought to improve relations with the soviet union through negotiations about trade and arms control, and in the middle east he coined a new phrase, "shuttle diplomacy", as he flew between capitals to try to constrain arab—israeli conflict. his belief was in real politic — the idea that national self—interest trumped human rights or shared values. no nation can make its survival dependent on the goodwill of another state. all this brought him some global celebrity. i don't stand on protocol, if you'lljust call me excellency. but kissinger�*s fame became notoriety as he struggled to end america's involvement in the vietnam war by bombing cambodia at a cost of many thousands of lives. his critics accused him of war crimes, his supporters welcomed a nobel peace prize. he was criticised too for supporting authoritarian anti—communist leaders such as general pinochet in chile. i shall resign the presidency effective at noon tomorrow. kissinger was considered so indispensable he survived the watergate crisis and was kept on by gerald ford. thus henry kissinger, a scholar and a statesman, and to some a ruthless a cynic. above all, a diplomat, always ready to talk. james landale, bbc news henry kissinger who's died at the age of 100. now to my favourite story of today,. now, in east yorkshire — carrie redhead gave her husband the greatest surprise of all — walking down the aisle on their wedding day last october — despite suffering from waldmann�*s disease — a rare disorder affecting her mobility. here's carrie — standing up from her wheelchair in a video that was watched millions of time online. she — step by step — walked along her father towardsjoel — her husband—to—be. this came as a real surprise to him and as you can see — he couldn't hide his emotion. with me now is carrie and joel redhead. thanks for coming in. let me ask you first second or, talk me through how you came to that decision because i'm assuming i could be wrong that it wasn't a spur of the moment thing. it it wasn't a spur of the moment thin. . , it wasn't a spur of the moment thin _ ., , ., , it wasn't a spur of the moment thing. it was a lengthy process. as soon sweet — thing. it was a lengthy process. as soon sweet book— thing. it was a lengthy process. as soon sweet book the _ thing. it was a lengthy process. as soon sweet book the wedding, -
