to take it 6—1. the third set was an absolute nailbiter. swiatek 4—1 down and seemingly out somehow survived breakpoints and even a matchpoint to take the set 7—5. she's now won 16 consecutive singles matches at roland—garros. the dream of achieving three in a row at the french open is alive and well. over on the men's side, carlos alcaraz needed to dig deep to beat inspired qualifierjesper de jong and reach the french open third round. spain's alcaraz looked subdued at times in a 6—3, 6—4, 2—6, 6—2 victory over a player ranked 173 places below him. a rusty performance from the two—time grand slam—winner, who twice had to come from a break down in the fourth set. in the end, though, doing what he had to do. he dominated most of the points in the first set, and i was struggling to get to my good tennis, or the tennis and i was playing in the first and second set. then in the fourth set, i had to fight. i had to overcome the problems that i had much of the time with myself, but really happy that i could get the win in a good way at the end. to golf, and all charges against world—number—one scottie scheffler have been dropped following his arrest at the us pga championship earlier this month. the american was arrested outside valhalla golf club while trying navigate heavy traffic hours before his second round at the tournament. the charges included reckless driving and disregarding traffic signals from an officer. it is obvious he did not do anything wrong, and as i said repeatedly, the more evidence that comes outcome of the more it shows that scott was the victim here. and, you know, ithink everybody sees something like this happen and realises they are one wrong turn or running into the wrong person away from going to jail themselves. it's the final of the europa conference league. olympiakos are trying to become the first greek football side to win a european club competition. they are up against fiorentina. the italian side were runners—up in the competition last year. it's been an end—to—end game in a raucous atmosphere in athens. fiorentina coming closest taking the lead. nikola milenkovic scuffs a shot past the keeperfrom a corner, but var ruled it out for offside. 32 minutes on the clock, still 0—0, though. it's that time of year, the off—season managerial merry—go—round. this one from burnley to bavaria, vincent kompany has been appointed bayern munich head coach on a three—year deal. the former manchester city captain retired from playing in 2020. he moved from anderlecht to manage burnley in 2022 and guided them to promotion to the premier league last year in his first season in charge. the clarets, though, suffered relegation from the top flight in may after finishing 19th. barcelona have confirmed hansi flick as their new manager on a two—year deal. it ends months of uncertainty at the club. the 59—year—old former germany manager takes over from xavi, who was sacked last week. a stunning century from nat sciver—brunt helped england thrash pakistan in the third one—day international at chelmsford. the all—rounder struck an unbeaten 124 to take england to 302—5, and that was always too much for pakistan, who could only reach 124—9. and with captain nida dar unable to bat, they lost by 178 runs. sciver—brunt also picked up two wickets. and that's all the sport for now. back to you. let's bring you some breaking news on the ongoing criminal trial against the former us president donald trump. we show you pictures from the last few moments where we can see mr trump and his entourage returning back to the courtroom. that is because the core is now sitting again. that is after the jury sitting again. that is after the jury sent a note to the judge containing four requests. we can go straight to our correspondent, who is outside the courtroom there in manhattan to explain exactly what is going on. as we know when these kind of cases, it is normal for a going on. as we know when these kind of cases, it is normalfor a jury going on. as we know when these kind of cases, it is normal for a jury to make requests and asked for clarifications. what exactly are they asking for in this case? that's right. it's often a sign of how seriously jurors are that's right. it's often a sign of how seriouslyjurors are taking their responsibility. and they been deliberating for about four hours now, and a short while ago, as you mentioned, a buzzer went off and they had a note for the judge asking for additional pieces of testimony. three of which they want from david pecker it, the former publisher of the tabloid the national enquirer. they want to take a closer look at a meeting that he held with donald trump and michael cohen in august 2015 in trump tower. and exactly what he said in his testimony during that meeting. remember, that meeting was where prosecutors said david pecker said discuss a so—called catch and kill skiing with donald trump's campaign, to buy up and kill negative stories about tromp to help him get into the white house. now they also want to see michael cohen's testimony from that same meeting. perhaps to compare what the two have said. they also want to other pieces from david pecker. a phone call that he had with donald trump and a discussion he had about buying the former playboy model karen mcdougall�*s life rights and ultimately then not selling that to donald trump because of advice from his legal council. so remember, prosecutors had described david pecker and somebody whose testimony was incredibly damaging and stands on its own. this is somebody who was the first witness to speak in this trial and really lay the groundwork for the prosecution's case. so the process now is under way to get the jurors those transcripts and then deliberations will continue. qm. deliberations will continue. 0k, “oininu us deliberations will continue. 0k, joining us live _ deliberations will continue. 0k, joining us live from the courtroom in manhattan, back with you when we get more mellowness but for the moment, thanks. just a reminder, mr trump is facing 3a counts of falsifying business records, allegedly to cover up a hush money payment to the adult film star stormy daniels in the final weeks of the 2016 election. he has denied the allegations from the start. this trial is just one of a number of cases against mr trump. he's also facing probes related to his handling of classified documents, case related to the january 6th storming of the capitol and another connected to the 2020 presidential contest in the state of georgia, as well as a civil case in new york. someone who has been following the trial closely is formal federal prosecutor, and professor at the cardazo school of law, jessica roth. welcome to bbc

of aid". it follows sunday's israeli airstrike on rafah which set a tent camp on fire, killing dozens and injuring many more. israel, a close us ally, said it had targeted hamas militants and had not intended to harm civilians. an emergency security council meeting has been taking place in new york. america's deputy ambassador to the un told the security council today that incidents like sunday's undermined israel's strategic goals. we are heartbroken and horrified by the deaths of dozens of palestinian civilians and the more than 200 individuals who were seriously injured, including children, following an israeli air strike on may 26th. words cannot capture the sense of loss the families whose lives were shattered by this tragic incident feel. for more on this, we can go live to washington

moment. ., �* ., ., ., that moment. 0k, tom bateman our state department _ that moment. 0k, tom bateman our state department correspondent - that moment. 0k, tom bateman our state department correspondent in l state department correspondent in washington, that you very much for the guests through the latest. it's a program full of elections tonight. we have talked about the uk and south africa. now, as promised, let's head to mexico. voters go to the polls on sunday, the largest elections in the country's history. mexicans will be casting ballots for over 20,000 positions, including a new president and all members of the house and senate. one of the main issues people around the world will be watching is mexico's relationship with the us and the situation on the border. thousands of people cross the border into the us illegally every day, often in extremely treacherous conditions. some say they're escaping persecution in their home countries, but their arrival into the us has long been a thorny issue for american politicians. one that could dominate the us election campaign. our correspondentjames reynolds has been to the californian desert on the border and sent this report. this is the border area between mexico and the united states, and if you look on a map, you'll see that the border between the two countries extend for, what, about 2000 miles — 3000 kilometres — and there are cities along the american side. but it is only when you get here, when you stand right here in the desert, under the sun, almost all alone, that you realise just how dangerous it is to be trying to make this crossing. it is easy to get lost here, to run out of water, simply not to know which way to turn, to get confused by the shrub land, not knowing which way is mexico and which way is the united states. and the dangers of this journey are shown by what happened here to one man. he was trying to build a life for him and his wife and his four kids. he broke his leg on thejourney, and he died not farfrom me here in the shade of a small bridge. this border has become an election campaign point on both sides, both for mexico and also for the united states. it will be debated and discussed as those two elections approach, the first injune and the second in november. an incredible watch there which gives you a sense of the scale. james is now on the mexican side of the border. hejoins me now from tijuana. it was really staggering to see the scale there even in just a small portion of where you are. just tell us who you have been speaking to in the last few days and what they have been saying to you. you told us once the within of women he lost his life making that crossing. find the within of women he lost his life making that crossing.— the within of women he lost his life making that crossing. and i spoke to an american — making that crossing. and i spoke to an american group, _ making that crossing. and i spoke to an american group, a _ making that crossing. and i spoke to an american group, a volunteer- making that crossing. and i spoke to | an american group, a volunteer group who help those migrants attending to cross the border. they said they are on a very specific law in the us was what they are not allowed to guide them to shelter but are allowed to point them to the food and the drink that this organisation leaves on the ground for them but are not allowed to do anything more than that or else they would risk falling foul of federal trafficking loss. they said that people should be allowed to cross the border, they get from here, mexico where i'm speaking to you from, across the border into the understates for a better life. but thatis understates for a better life. but that is not a view that is shared by everyone across the border in the united states. there was a baseball game last night so i spoke to plenty of fans on way into the game asking them what they make of that was a ship with mexico and their thoughts on migration? lot of americas i spoke to said mexico is a great place to come to for a break and i asked about migration and some of them said people should come to my migration is the lifeblood of what any country needs but i was struck by the fact that many of the others i spoke to him as they arrived into the game said you have to differentiate between legal migration as they saw it on the one side which they believe should happen an illegal migration, which many of them said should not happen. and of course that is an election point in november in the us. in point in november in the us. i'm remembering the time when i was in america and i met a seven—year—old boy who would cross the rio grande on his own to make what we have said was an incredibly treacherous journey. one thing that's often talked about around me are the cartels and the gangs in the violence at the border that also is all wrapped up into this. yes. violence at the border that also is all wrapped up into this.- all wrapped up into this. yes, for mexicans approaching _ all wrapped up into this. yes, for mexicans approaching this - all wrapped up into this. yes, for i mexicans approaching this election and for those migrants inside this country, violence or security is pretty much the central issue. now security is at a dry word but it really means this, can you get to have dinner with your family that night without worrying about what will happen to your family members? if you are a mexican. if you are a migrant, can you get to where you want to one of the threat of cartels or other gangs making your life incredibly dangerously difficult? as soon as we finish speaking to you and do a few other colleagues, we are going to go speak to some migrants themselves who are at a shelter here in tijuana and was most important point is they come from different countries. some come from this region and other countries in central america or the caribbean or venezuela which is being hit by economic collapse in recent years, but other migrants have come from other conflicts in the world, figuring out that their best route to a better life as they would see it comes through using this highway in mexico, this migrant highway in mexico, be they sme from afghanistan to pakistan and trying to reach the us. , . , , ., , to pakistan and trying to reach the us. james reynolds, thanks for all our us. james reynolds, thanks for all your reporting _ us. james reynolds, thanks for all your reporting this _ us. james reynolds, thanks for all your reporting

world service. back to new york and are minor of the developing story coming from the courtroom there as jurors in donald trump's is to what criminal trial began deliberations but now everyone is returned to the courtroom after the jury asked to see some of the testimony and the transcripts once again. you can see it more of the details on the updates there on the bbc news life page there. and we know that it is typical of course for a jury to ask for clarifications and questions and we don't know how long that's going to take, butjust to confirm the jury has requested to see some of the evidence again. there is the same live in the courtroom not to look ago, and we saw donald trump and his entourage including one of his sons returned to the courtroom as everybody has been called back as that evidence is shared once again. you are watching the context, stay with us. hello. it's been another day of heavy downpours for some parts of the uk. i think they will become fewer and further between as we head towards the weekend. and even today, some of us got to see some sunshine. gorgeous scenes there for a weather watcher in whitstable in kent. but this area of low pressure still close by, so there is a bit more rain to come. in fact, this little weather feature bringing some really heavy downpours southwards across scotland and then getting down into parts of northern england as we head on through the night. we will also see some showers for northern ireland, pushing down into wales and the south—west of england, but many other areas starting tomorrow morning on a dry note. temperatures surrounds nine, ten or 11 degrees. so into tomorrow morning, this band of cloud and rain, quite heavy bursts of rain still, pushing southwards across northern england, down into wales, into the midlands, east anglia, and then getting down towards the south coast, where it'll break up into some sharp and perhaps thundery showers. more cloud and rain for this east coast of england. that will make it feel quite disappointing, particularly when combined with the strength of the wind. further west, not as many showers, more dry weather, some spells of sunshine and temperatures perhaps getting up to around 19 or possibly 20 degrees in sheltered spots. now, as we move out of thursday into friday, the focus shifts from this area of low pressure, which starts to roll away eastwards. the focus shifting to this area of high pressure just starting to build in from the west. now, still cloud and some showery rain across some eastern counties of england, but further north and west, it should be largely dry, spells of sunshine. a bit more cloud here, as well, into the north west of scotland. maybe only 14 degrees for stornoway, but given some sunshine, glasgow could get to 19. 19 in cardiff as well. some spots likely to get to 20 degrees. and this area of high pressure still with us as we head into the weekend, but with some fairly large areas of cloud circulating around it. so it won't always be sunny. on saturday, it does look like we'll see quite a lot of cloud across parts of england, maybe into wales. and another bank of cloud trying to roll into northern ireland and the north—west of scotland. but where we do see some sunshine, temperatures doing quite nicely, 20, perhaps up to 21 degrees. and as we head into the second half of the weekend, i think similar temperatures, high—teens, low—20 celsius. a fair amount of cloud at times, but still with some spells of sunshine. hello, i'm rajini vaidyanathan. you're watching the context on bbc news. i'm going to work very hard every single day to earn your trust. and you know what? i don't think you, the british people, like being taken for granted. that's the choice. more of this chaos and decline — we've had 14 years. heaven knows what they'll do if they get another five years. or move forward with labour. the winding road to polling day. still has plenty around the corner, and where every announcement prompts a flurry of reaction as each party - seeks to undermine the others. the election is in full swing. on my panel tonight are martin shipton, the nation.cymru associate editor in wales, lucy fisher, the financial times whitehall editor, nadine batchelor—hunt, the political reporter for politicshome in birmingham and chris morris, the ceo of full fact, a british charity, which checks and corrects facts reported in the news and on social media.
