Yesterdays sword attack that killed 14 year old Daniel Anjorin and injured others. Good evening. The father of a seven Year Old Girl who was crushed to death last week on an inflatable boat trying to cross the channel has been describing what happened and his desperation when he couldnt save her. Sara was one of five people who died as the boat, overcrowded with migrants trying to reach the uk, Set Off From A Beach South of calais. Saras mother and two older siblings were on board but they all survived. It was the fourth time the family had attempted the crossing. Andrew harding is in calais for us this evening. Yes, good evening, sophie. We have spent the past week investigating what happened on that beach. We finally tracked down and spoke to saras father, the father of the seven Year Old Girl who died. He blames the smugglers for the overcrowding that he said caused his daughters death, but as you can imagine, he is also wrestling with the decisions he took, the risks he took and put his family on that night. I must warn you that this report contains some distressing scenes. Shouting. This was the scene last week as smugglers clashed with police on a french beach. And in the middle of the chaos, one unforgettable image of a small girl perched on her fathers shoulders. A seven Year Old Girl with moments left to live. We now know her name was sara, and this is her story. Sara was born in belgium but grew up in sweden, one of three children. Here they are with theirfather, ahmed. Hed fled from iraq in 2009 and spent years trying but failing to get permission to settle anywhere in europe. He got married, worked, had children, but his Asylum Appeals were rejected. Instead, he says, the whole family faced deportation to iraq. Which is why ahmed brought them here instead, hiding with smugglers in these dunes near calais. So you were with your whole family here, all five of you . With family, with everybody. Family stay, seat for this side. Ahmed brought us back to the french coast to explain what had happened and why he put his family in such danger. He shows me how they rushed towards the sea. Youre racing them . Yes. Trying to get to the water before the police . Yes. It must have been scary for the children. Yeah. The Police Caught up with them near the waters edge. We were there, too, filming the whole incident. The smugglers fighting back. And then here on the right, sara, in a pinkjacket, Making Herway towards the boat, Still Holding herfather� s hand. A little later, you can see her on ahmeds shoulders. Then she disappears into the wildly overcrowded boat. A rival group of smugglers had directed their passengers from sudan towards the same boat. As more migrants piled on board, you can hear Ahmed Shouting for help. Translation she said, help me, i dad, but i couldnt reach her. I there were people standing on top of us, and sara disappeared below me. I was trapped. I told one man to move. I screamed and hit him. But he just looked away. Ashore, the French Police made no further attempt to intervene. It was only later at sea that a rescue boat finally took people away to reveal saras dead body. Finally, when the rescue boat came, they started to pull people out, to pull out the dead. Then i saw sara. She was in the corner. Herface was blue. She wasnt breathing. There will be people watching this who will say, why did you take that risk . Why were you prepared to take such a risk for you and yourfamily to try to get to england . How do you explain that . The sea was my last option. I applied 14 times for asylum, but they were all denied. I went to belgium, to sweden, to finland. I didnt want any hand outs. My wife and i can both work. All i wanted was for my kids to go to school. To have dignity. Before she left sweden, sara drew this family portrait. Thats her on the right. Today, her Old School Teacher said the class was mourning her death. Translation she was a kind and nice i girl with lots of friends at school. I when we heard shed died, we gathered in a circle and had a minutes silence. They were such a nice family. I was really shocked to learn they were being deported. Sara and her siblings had only ever lived in europe. Herfuneral is expected in the coming days. For herfather, there is grief and guilt, and still no clarity about which country he and his broken family can ever call home. Andrew harding, bbc news in northern france. Police have named the 14 year old boy who was killed in a sword attack in Northeast London yesterday. Daniel anjorin was a pupil at bancroft� s school in woodford green. Two Police Officers, who were also injured in the attack in hainault, are still in hospital. A 36 year old man who was arrested is now out of hospital and in Police Custody on suspicion of murder. Our special correspondent lucy manning is in hainault where the attack happened. Lucy. Well, we learned more today about the 14 year old victim, Daniel Anjorin. By allaccounts, lovely, conscientious boy. One of his friends said he had the Football Skills of a young messi. We also learned about some of the injured, two men in their 30s, and a male and female police officer, one whose hand was almost severed. All we know about the suspect as he is now in custody after being in hospital. The police say this is a complex investigation and they need patience to get answers for the community, but especially for danielfamily. Daniel anjorin, smart in his uniform, travelling to school just like he set off to do yesterday morning. But the 14 year old wouldnt make it. The teenager, a much loved pupil, the son of a teacher. Family friends spoke after visiting daniels parents. The mum was saying that he brings so muchjoy. Well behaved. Yes, well behaved, a lovely boy. He excelled in school and in sports. They are obviously in shock and they are grieving. They are ok. Ok and not ok. At Bancroft School in east london, there is a pupil missing who never made it. Its flag is at half mast, but there is double the grief. As well as daniel, this was grace omalley kumar� s school. She was killed in a knife attack in nottingham last year. In a statement, the school said. We are devastated by the heartbreaking news of the death of Daniel Anjorin. This has left us in profound shock and sorrow. He was a true scholar, demonstrating commendable dedication to his academic pursuits. His positive nature and gentle character will leave a Lasting Impact on us. As locals brought flowers, a neighbour who didnt want to be identified described seeing daniel attacked. We know the boy, see him going to school. We know the parents. Theyre a very nice family, and you just cant imagine what theyre going through now. Its a complete tragedy. A young boy should not be walking to school and being stabbed before his doorstep. As i looked outside the window, the young boy had been stabbed, and the man was shouting about god and whether you believe in god and things like that. Before he ran round the back of my house, he stabbed Police Officers down that alleyway. I came out my house to go to help the boy. As i came out, he literally was five feet away from me on the left. So when i saw him, i went straight back inside my house. The bravery of the officers yesterday was clear. As the attacker brandishes his sword, the officer on the left uses his taser twice. Then the policewoman in the centre tasers him again. But before this, two Police Officers, the met Chief Constable said, were really horrifically injured. I went to the hospital yesterday. I saw the inspector whose hands badly damaged, really serious injuries there. And i was talking to the family and colleagues of the officer, a Woman Officer whose really badly damaged arm, really seriously damaged. And the surgeon spent many, many hours sort of basically putting her arm back together. The Anjorin Family left heartbroken by such a senseless attack. Lucy manning, bbc news. Hundreds of people have been arrested at pro palestinian protests at University Campuses in the United States amid violent clashes. In los angeles, Demonstratrors At A Camp set up by people who oppose israels military action in gaza clashed with counterdemonstrators. The Vice Chancellor of The University of california, los angeles, has spoken of Horrific Acts Of Violence on campus. Our los angeles correspondent Emma Vardy Is At Ucla for us now. Many students and teachers arrived here at ucla today to find classes cancelled, helicopters overhead and many police on campus. What happened last night has been strongly condemned by this university, but what has been a political minefield for many universities in recent weeks has now become even harder. This was the moment tensions between rival protesters boiled over. As pro palestinian activists and a counterdemonstration by pro israel supporters became violent. Fireworks were thrown over a screaming crowd, and wood used as weapons. We had people beating us with sticks, throwing whatever they could to us. Im sticks, throwing whatever they could to us. � ~. , sticks, throwing whatever they could to us. � ~. ,. , sticks, throwing whatever they could to us. � ~. ,. ,. , sticks, throwing whatever they could tous. � ~. ,. ,. , i, to us.

The Vice Chancellor has condemned last nights events as a horrific act of violence. Officers have now separated the rival groups. In new york, at Columbia University, where the protests originally started, police entered the encampment. Its now nearly two weeks since they previously went in, leading to huge controversy. Inside, pro Palestinian Protesters had seized a building, smashing windows and barricading themselves in. Some 300 protesters were arrested in the raids on campus at Columbia University and the City University of new york. We support the right of free speech and open debate, we always protect the right to protest. But we must balance the right with keeping the students, the school and our city safe. , students, the school and our city safe. , ,. ,. , safe. There has been disruption for many students safe.

And there is particular frustration for students at ucla today who would have been sitting midterm exams. Instead, a heavy Police Presence is set to continue. Emma vardy, los angeles. Around 300 protestors were arrested in new york last night. Our north america editor sarah smith is at new york university. Yes, and no sooner had the police cleared out all of the Student Protesters from Columbia University than just in the last few minutes, another protest has sprung up outside on the street, and there you can see professors alongside students marching, protesting and demanding that The University tell them about and then divest themselves of any stocks or shares that they hold in companies that do business with israel or profit in any way from the occupation in gaza. And of course it is notjust in new york and in los angeles. Just today at The University of wisconsin in madison, we saw the Police Called in by the University Authorities there, which is a real dilemma for each university, because they know that these kind of scenes where you see Police Tackling Protesters simply spark more demonstrations. It is not necessarily a way to quell the movement. We have not yet heard anything from President Biden about quelling this movement sweeping the nation, and this is difficult for him because on the one hand he risks losing the support of hundreds of thousands of young student activist. But at the same time, he knows that moderate swing voters would probably like to hear him condemn this widespread disruption, not take the side of the protesters, and all of thisjust six months side of the protesters, and all of this just six months out from a president ial election. You can see how the politics are very fraught. Sarah smith in new york, thank you.

The father of a seven Year Old Girl who died while attempting to cross the channel to the uk, has told the bbc of his desperation when he couldnt save her. Coming up the story of this 98 year old ukrainian woman, who walked six miles in her slippers to escape russian troops. Coming up on bbc news, chelsea women have a chance to win precious points in the league. They are preparing to take on liverpool at prenton park, as emma hayes tries to win the one remaining piece of silverware available. If you like a slice of this white bread but worry that it might be bad for you theres help at hand. Scientists have been baking up a brand new loaf that tastes just like white bread but has all the nutritious value of wholemeal. At least thats what they say so we sent pallab ghosh for a taste test. Its bread, only better. These are the first batch of nutrition boosted loaves. The eventual aim is to make them look and taste like the sliced white loaves that most people prefer. Ive really found about this project is that white bread is not good for you. I was always aware of that, but its really reinforced it and it makes you realise just how much of the goodness is on the outside of that grain of wheat. We want to know what are the actual minerals present, and what are the vitamins that are being lost, so that we can formulate a white flour that is enhanced compared to an existing white flour. The scientists are working with a Flour Making Firm in gloucestershire. Theyre making loaves with added Cereal Pulses and fibre for the scientists to analyse. Both these loaves are nutritionally enhanced. This one has bits of wheat, such as wheat germ and bran that are found in wholemeal loaves but in smaller quantities. This one has all sorts of different grains, such as chickpeas, green peas and quinoa, all mixed in together. Both of them are much better for you, but how do they taste . Chris hollister, whose idea it all is, offers me a slice or two. Its gorgeous, and it tastes like white bread as well. Thats the idea. Yeah. We want to make sure that people are still receptive to it, and its not too different to what they are used to. Most mills produce only white flour, which makes white bread much cheaper than wholemeal because of mass production. The nutritionally boosted flour will be able to be produced using the same machines, so the new bread should be about the same price. Baking firms have tried and failed with previous attempts, but the researchers hope that theirs will pass the taste test and people will think that its the best thing since sliced bread.

The uks biggest building society, nationwide, said values had dropped by 0. 4 in april and now sit 4 below the all time highs recorded two years ago. Our economics editor faisal islam is here. And this is all down to the high Interest Rates . Interest rates . Yes, this is the second dip Interest Rates . Yes, this is the second dip in Interest Rates . Yes, this is the second dip in a Interest Rates . Yes, this is the second dip in a row Interest Rates . Yes, this is the second dip in a row we Interest Rates . Yes, this is the second dip in a row we have i Interest Rates . Yes, this is the l second dip in a row we have had Interest Rates . Yes, this is the i second dip in a row we have had on this measure from nationwide. You have a Housing Market that is flat, in a holding pattern, as the Interest Rates on fixed rate mortgages which had come down sharply at the beginning of the year are starting to tick up and the banks and Building Societies all joining and lifting slightly fixed rate mortgages, which is damping down the Housing Market in terms of prices. This is the most timely set of figures, four april. It doesnt include Cash Purchases and the buy to let mortgages but it is an account of what nationwide is seeing on its own mortgage applications. You get a sense in which the Housing Market is waiting to see what is happening with Interest Rates. We have an Interest Rate decision from The Americans at the end of this hour and the expectations are that Interest Rates that were expected to occur regularly this year are be delayed and there wont be many of them, thatis and there wont be many of them, that is the concern in markets and that is the concern in markets and that does affect the Housing Market. We will get more clarity from the Bank Of England when they make their next decision. Scotlands First Minister, humza yousaf, has insisted ending the snps Power Sharing Agreement with the scottish greens was the right thing to do. But he said hed paid the price with hisjob. Mr yousaf has been speaking to our scotland editor, james cook, in his first interview since announcing his resignation. First minister, good morning, how are you . Well, hes reflective and regretful. A First Minister on his way out after his decision to ditch the greens left him unable to govern. Ending the Bute House Agreement was the right decision both for my party and my country. But i have to acknowledge the manner in which i did it caused great upset and thats on me. Are you kicking yourself . I do of course reflect a lot and i do regret how this has ended. So does he Wantjohn Swinney to take over . Or should it be kate forbes, who ran humza yousaf close in an acrimonious Leadership Contestjust last year . He wont say. Whatever happens, if it is a contest, my plea as to any candidate to make sure we are talking each other up, not talking each other down because we wont be able to benefit from that. Unlike last time. Thats a dig at kate forbes . No, its not, because ive got to play my role and that as well so i am self reflecting on the fact that i was involved in that campaign. Is there something wrong with politics in this country now and do you share some responsibility for that . The fact that almost every discussion and debate descends into a toxic culture war is really regressive for our politics. Im not saying we should all agree on everything, im perfectly fine, thats the whole point of our politics is to debate. And by the way, to debate quite robustly. No party is perfect, im not suggesting to you we havent at times overstepped the mark either in terms of respectful debate. But then it was back to the bearpit to defend not his leadership but the Scottish Government in a vote of no confidence. For the second time in as many years we have scandal, incompetence and political Self Interest with the snp putting party before country and imposing their choice on the people of scotland. We want to get rid of this entire distracted, divided snp government. The upcoming General Election will have the chance to deliver another blow to them. The government survived the vote thanks to the greens. A reminder that consensus will be critical for the next First Minister. James cook, bbc news, edinburgh.
