Having made it to the Quarter Finals at last weeks tournament in germany that encouraging form deserted her, as she was defeated 6 2 in the first set by her argentinian opponent, who is ranked 83 in the world.

But it was the englishman, lisowski, who came out on top in that final frame to set up a meeting with Stuart Bingham in the second round. And thats all the sport for now. We will keep you up to date with everything that goes on in the football a little later on. A little earlier in the programme we talked about the ukraine passage which passed the senate last night. Attached to it is a bill that would ban tiktok in the United States or force the chinese owner bytedance to sell it within nine months. The Us Government says it has concern that tiktok might share that user data with the Chinese Government claims it has always denied. The companys ceo, said today bytedance will take the Us Government to court. Make no mistake, this is a ban, a ban on tiktok and ban on you and your voice. Politicians may say otherwise but dont get confused, many who sponsored the bill Admit A Tiktok Ban is the ultimate goal. So, how would a ban work, what precedent could it set and how long might all this take .

How invested will National Security at risk. How invested will other National Security at risk. How invested will other us National Security at risk. How invested will other us Companies Be Invested Will other us companies be in this . This is pretty unprecedented style. If the sale was ordered then you would think there would be some tit for tat for the American Companies have precious Intellectual Property in china which they would want the Chinese Government to get their hands on. Many people in the United States know that china has already banned a bunch of apps from the United States, Information Services like the New York Times or like facebook or twitter. And even wikipedia. There is a lot of other companies that still operate within china. Companies like apple and microsoft seldom Even Companies like tesla. All of these Companies Collect a huge amount of information about chinese citizens. So they could face blowback in china. But also there is a risk that other countries could borrow this same model to not only ban a foreign app but simply say, no, we would rather not band that you we just want to have you turned the keys over to someone local. Weve seen a bit of that in russia since the invasion of ukraine. In the us who would buy it . Theres a whole pile of regulation coming down the track. There are Companies May be interested in buying tiktok if they have the technology and the financial clout.

Microsoft does not have a social networking app. Today the idea of the current giant might extend its tentacles even further into another social networking space probably will be met with frowns in washington, dc.

Closely linked to that china the news here in europe this week that chinese spies have infiltrated key government departments. There were two arrests here in the uk. Christopher cash, a uk parliamentary researcher and another man. Both charged with spying for china, allegedly providing information which could be useful to an enemy. And then in germany, the top adviser to a far right politician was also arrested. Maximilian krah, is a key member of the alternative for germany. His assistant, jian guo, is a German National who had worked for krah since his election to the European Parliament in 2019. He is accused of passing Sensitive Information on negotiations and decisions within the European Parliament to the chinese intelligence service. Christopher steele is a former British Intelligence officer. Worked for the russian desk at mi six. Good to see you, chris. Its extensive which begs the question, do we know the full scale of it . Ida. Do we know the full scale of it . No, i dont think do we know the full scale of it . No, i dont think we do we know the full scale of it . Iifr, i dont think we do. This is possibly the tip of the iceberg. I think its very significant that china in particular seems to be adopting a much more aggressive and direct intelligence effort against western institutions for the particularly the fact that they are going directly at our political systems and also i see echoes of russias playbook here in terms of targeting the far right parties in europe for potential sources and agents. Europe for potential sources and auents. , agents. One of the due rested here, christopher agents. One of the due rested here, Christopher Kash agents. One of the due rested here, Christopher Kash was agents. One of the due rested here, Christopher Kash was employed agents. One of the due rested here, Christopher Kash was employed by l Christopher Kash was employed by alicia kearns, the conservative chair of the Foreign Affairs committee. He was charged with providing information to a foreign state. The question i had about him is, was invented by the Intelligence Services before he took the job . Is, was invented by the Intelligence Services before he took thejob . I services before he took the job . I think its very difficult in a situation Like Parliament where there are 600 mps in 800 lords to actually vent people properly. We know the Vetting System has been under quite a lot of financial pressure in the uk of late. The entity that is probably no other than a cursory look at whether he for example wouldve had a criminal record. I think this is the worry and think that somebody so young being allegedly recruited by the chinese could well be a long term prospect for them in terms of his ability to network and move about within the political system here. How does it work . How they picked up at universities, other giving grants and tied into the chinese, how are they getting their claws into these people . I they getting their claws into these eo le . ~. , people . I think it varies. Obviously. People . I think it varies. Obviously, the people . I think it varies. Obviously, the ones people .

Obviously, the ones like the one in germany where it seems that although his adjournments citizen hes chinese, probably through family ties into asia or china. Also people travelling to china, students are vulnerable to be targeted and recruited in this way. My understanding without wanting to prejudice the cash case is that he actually spent a considerable amount of time in china before this happened. Of time in china before this happened happened. The head of the counterterrorism happened. The head of the I Counterterrorism Commander happened. The head of the counterterrorism commander at the met said thered been an extremely complex investigation why so complex, how did these investigations tend to work . I think theres a great investigations tend to work . I think theres a great Deal Investigations tend to work . I think theres a great deal of investigations tend to work . I think theres a great deal of difference i theres a great deal of difference between having counterintelligence and Human Intelligence on a particular person or situation. And being able to produce evidence in a court of law. Whats striking about this is that these guys have actually been charged now. And will go to court and evidence will be presented to show that they were allegedly working for a foreign power. Thats a step forward and it indicates how aggressive the chinese are for the interestingly russia is at war effectively so you would expect russian espionage to be strong and aggressive in risk carefree in terms of risk. You wouldnt really expect china. I actually think the chinese are beginning to look more like the russians in terms of their Human Intelligence operations now. Since ou talked intelligence operations now. Since you talked about you talked about counterintelligence, counterintelligence, counterintelligence evolves to the threat, whether its islamist, russian, do you think the european authorities are good at Tracking Chinese espionage . Its authorities are good at Tracking Chinese espionage . Chinese espionage . Its a very difficult question chinese espionage . Its a very difficult question to chinese espionage . Its a very difficult question to answer. Chinese espionage . Its a very difficult question to answer. I | difficult question to answer. I think they are not used to the chinese working in Human Intelligence operations of this type. China traditionally has been much more interested in Hacking Operations and the theft of Intellectual Property. I think the lessons theyve learned from russia will have to be applied to china pretty quickly in order to get this thing under control. It looks at the moment there is a plethora of these things and it is not being controlled by the Security Authorities at home. For coming on. Around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. Welcome back. There were some extraordinary scenes in london this morning a number of horses from the Household Cavalry which were on exercise in belgravia, threw their riders and bolted through the streets leaving four people including a cyclist in hospital. Our correspondent ellie price has the story. If it wasnt so dangerous, it would be strangely beautiful. Two Military Horses on the run in Central London during the morning rush hour. One hits a taxi. And they carry on down fleet street. In total, five Household Cavalry horses ran loose after unseating four riders. One had been in charge of two horses. The damage unmistakable as they crashed into several vehicles, including this bus. Three soldiers were hospitalised, their injuries not deemed to be life threatening. The bbc understands a fourth Person Injured was a cyclist. At such a busy time in the day there were of course plenty of witnesses. As i looked to the left i saw two horses coming towards me and i ran to get across the road. They are big horses and the grey or white one had blood from its weathers, its shoulders. It was coming at such a speed, i thought i need to stop the sources. To stop the horses. Two horses went past me and i saw them gallop without riders, which was quite extraordinary. I checked it was safe to pull out and another horse came around the corner with a rider on it and just missed my cab. Pictures on social media showed members of the public catching and calming one of the horses. All five have now been caught and are being checked over by a vet. The chaos started to unfold near Buckingham Palace this morning. The black and the grey made it here to the strand before ending up five miles away at limehouse in east london. We understand it was noise from a nearby Building Site that caused the horses to spook and balls and they unseated their riders and one of the loose horses crashed into the taxi just about here. Household cavalry horses are used to loud noises and the challenges of Central London. Many of their stablemates were involved in the changing of the guard this morning. Tonight all five horses are back at the barracks near hyde park. Questions remain over why they were so spooked. Good to hear the horses are well. The best of those who were injured today. We have been covering the pro palestinian campuses across us universities. The scale of that unrest is beyond anything weve seen since the war began. Let me show you some pictures from the university of Southern California with the police have taken a much more robust approach to the sit ins. Similar scenes at the university of texas. Thats the university of texas. Thats the university and austin, texas. You can see the riot police on patrol. It feels like its snowballing. Like a National Movement at the moment it is dragging in the politicians. A lot of focus has been on Columbia University. Lets show you live pictures from the main campus where were expecting speaker the house mike johnson were expecting speaker the house mikejohnson to speak. Hes been speaking in the last few minutes with the jewish students speaking in the last few minutes with thejewish students there. Hes expected to give some details on what hes the protesters who set outside of the main faculties, more than 100 were arrested last week put up than 100 were arrested last week put up the jewish than 100 were arrested last week put up thejewish students at this campus, indeed Faculty Members themselves who are jewish campus, indeed Faculty Members themselves who Arejewish Have complained that criticism of israels policies has now veered into anti semitism and its becoming more threatening. The University Held a meeting with students today to come to some accommodation. For the remainder of the semester were told they will be holding some of the lectures online. Were expecting emma vardy who is on her way to the university of south carolina. Lets dive around some of these live pictures as we wait maybe for the speaker to appear at the microphone. This is texas. Its a bit Kalmar Thenit this is texas. Its a bit kalmar then it was just an hour ago. Obviously, when youre talking about young people who form such an important part Ofjoe Items Coalition and a National Moment we met movement which is growing, politically it is dangerous for the for the emma vardy, where are you near the campus of University Of California where we scenes of violence in the last hour or so. Im violence in the last hour or so. Im headin violence in the last hour or so. In heading towards it. There have been these clashes with police on the campus. We understand there was some tents pitched at all the demonstrators gathered had been warned to disperse. Their sense has been escalation and clashes with police. Also the university has to some degree anticipated these tensions and has anticipated what might develop with these protests. Because of that they had cancelled Graduation Speeches today. In an attempt to ward things off or calm tensions. A lot of this has been quite inflammatory on social media. Both with information and social Media Material also helping to ramp up Media Material also helping to ramp up protests and ramp up tensions in terms of the israel and hamas war. We also saw something similar in texas where Police Detained at least ten people, we understand after huge protest bear at the campus in austin. We understand that the test was in support of two palestine for the students were asking for the university to stop its relationship with manufacturers who supply weapons. And in a similarfashion it seemed the protesters were detained at the police had asked him to disperse. Whats really raising eyebrows is that there were officers in riot gear present at the scene for the people questioning whether it was a heavy handed approach when it was a heavy handed approach when it comes to unarmed protesters. Theres been a lot of debate about that with people seeing these pictures too. I that with people seeing these pictures toe that with people seeing these pictures too. I said its starting to feel like pictures too. I said its starting to feel like a pictures too. I said its starting to feel like a National Pictures too. I said its starting i to feel like a National Movement. Pictures too. I said its starting to feel like a National Movement. Do you think it is connected through social media . You think it is connected through social media . That is undoubtedly art of it social media . That is undoubtedly part of it because social media . That is undoubtedly part of it because movements social media . That is undoubtedly i part of it because movements these days are absolutely connected organically through social media. When you see something happening in 1s state it will anchor people and others. Everybody can pitch into the debate online when you are watching the pictures as were sitting here watching various pictures develop on twitter, acts and other platforms. It raises emotions, and tensions and the pictures on the news coming in from gaza and things like that. They are very emotive. Social media does promote more emotive material. When it comes to Student Protests of course they are pretty organic, they can spread quickly. Weve been seeing this over the recent days. Reports from gaza to date not good. In the last few minutes the white house has said it wants answers on these reports of mass graves in the grounds of two of the main hospitals. We can show you some of the detail on that very shortly. The speaker is promising a hard line response to this. He said school should have their federal funding revoked if they cannot control their campuses. Hes also calling on the president at Columbia University where he is today, it used to be the Deputy Governor of the Bank Of England is calling for him to go. This has big financial implications for these universities. It this has big financial implications for these universities. This has big financial implications for these universities. It does. The thing thats for these universities. It does. The thing thats been for these universities. It does. The thing thats been condemned for these universities. It does. The thing thats been condemned by i thing thats been condemned by the white houses in anti semitic incidents that have happened at some demonstrations. There is been very intense and heated debates on University Campuses ever since the hamas attack on israel in october. Its been very tense between pro palestinians and pro israel groups. Were seeing this demonstrated now by the protests which are spilling over into clashes with the police. There will be questions about how police have handled this. And the way in which they can escalate quite quickly if you go in with a heavy handed approach. Universities themselves being held to account about the way in which they decide to calm tensions. Its notable that the university of Southern California decided to cancel Graduation Speeches because of back. Emma, thank ou speeches because of back. Emma, thank you for speeches because of back. Emma, thank you for that. Speeches because of back. Emma, thank you for that. We speeches because of back. Emma, thank you for that. We will speeches because of back. Emma, thank you for that. We will take i speeches because of back. Emma, thank you for that. We will take a l thank you for that. We will take a short break. We see speakerjohnson we will go live to that. Do you stay with us. We will be right back. Hello. It has been another rather cold feeling day for many parts of the uk. Any sign of the temperatures lifting over the next few days . Well, certainly notjust yet staying chilly through thursday and friday. There will be some sunshine, but also some showers some of those showers wintry over high ground in the north of the uk. A cold air mass enveloping the country right now, that cold air being drawn down from the north. Also coming down from the north overnight, some areas of cloud, some bits and pieces of showery rain i say rain, cold enough for some of the showers over high ground in scotland to be falling as snow. Some snow mixing in above, say, 2 300 metres elevation. Itll be cold enough for a frost as well, temperatures dropping perilously close to freezing, below freezing in some locations. So for thursday morning, quite a cold start. Areas of cloud bringing some showery rain across parts of england and wales, brightening up through the day across northern england. Northern ireland and scotland, seeing sunny spells and showers still some wintriness in those showers over high ground in scotland, and temperatures in a range between 8 13 celsius, so below par for this time of year. Through thursday night and into friday, it looks like well see this Weather System here just grazing the South Of England and the channel islands, so that will bring some cloud, perhaps some showery rain here through the day. Elsewhere, it is another sunny spells and showers day. Still some wintry showers in those showers over the hills and mountains of scotland, and those temperatures for most between 8 12 celsius. Now, as we head into the start of the weekend, for most, itll be a cold morning on saturday, its another sunshine and showers day. But turn your eyes to the south an area of thicker cloud and some outbreaks of rain pushing across the channel islands, into southern counties of england through saturday afternoon. With that, temperatures will start to lift a little 1a celsius in london. And that is the story of the weekend weather, some Slightly Less cold air beginning to spill its way up from the south. Certainly not going to be a heat wave, and its certainly not going to be completely dry, because that Slightly Less cold air is being brought our way by this area of low pressure. Looks like we will see some outbreaks of rain continuing on into sunday, particularly across england and wales. The chance of seeing something drier and brighter for Northern Ireland and scotland. Hello, im christian fraser. Youre watching the context on bbc news. The graves are now at the centre of conflicting claims between hamas and local aid workers on one side and the Israel Defense forces on the other. Hamas claims some of the dead were executed, had their hands tied and were dumped in mass graves. The examination was carried out respectfully while maintaining the dignity of the deceased. Bodies were examined which did not belong to israeli hostages, and they were returned to their place. We are horrified also by The Destruction of Al Nasser Medical Complex and Al Shifa Medical Complex and the reports of the discovery of mass graves in and around facilities. And we call for independent, effective, Transparent Investigations into the deaths
