diverted to other airports. it comes at the start of the busy summer holiday season amd the airport has apologised to passengers. in a moment we will have the latest from our correspondent at manchester airport. but first, let's hear from a stranded passenger. i spoke with nikita pearson, a fitness instructor stuck at manchester airport waiting to board his flight to istanbul. we got to the airport at about eight o'clock in the morning and you could see people sat outside on luggage. we didn't think anything of it. we got the lift to go upstairs to terminal one and you couldn't even get out of the lift. you had to trample over people to get out of the lift and then you just stood there. hoards of people just not moving anywhere. there was no tannoy announcement, no staff nearby anywhere, there were children getting trampled on, there were babies, it was chaos. we stood there for about an hour and a half and then nothing at all. you mentioned you couldn't see any staff to speak to. there was minimal communication. has there been any at all? have you been informed of anything by yourapp or e—mails? after an hour and a half we communicated with turkish airlines and they confirmed 45 minutes before our flight that it was cancelled and we had to rebook it. there was no communication from the airport. all they were saying on the airport's twitter page was contact your airline. we couldn't get to our check—in never mind through security. one man who worked at the airport looked like he was stopping people from walking through so you had people walking backwards trying to get back to the lift, trying to push through, there were children there, you didn't know what to do or where to go, if the flights were cancelled. no tannoy, no announcement, nothing. so, what do you think is going to happen next? do you have any idea or are you just going to wait at the airport? we've managed to rebook our flight. it's already been delayed but hopefully this evening we can fly out. if not we'll have to come back tomorrow and fly back out tomorrow. how are you feeling about this? about the fact this has been caused by seemingly something as basic as a power cut? you think, why don't they have back—up? it was very stressful initially because it was a very enclosed area, you're stuck and even if you wanted to leave you couldn't get out. luggage everywhere, trolleys, prams, the anxiety levels were not great in that moment. let's speak to correspondent yunus mulla who's near manchester airport for us. what is the latest? no flights are scheduled to _ what is the latest? no flights are scheduled to take _ what is the latest? no flights are scheduled to take off _ what is the latest? no flights are scheduled to take off from - what is the latest? no flights are i scheduled to take off from terminals one and two. you can imagine what the impact will be on passengers who have booked their holidays or passengers arriving into manchester. it's one of the busiest airports in the country. there will be people flying to the euros, flying off on business, so a whole range of passengers have been impacted by this. it started at 1:30am when there was a power outage. that led to long queues which lasted a number of hours. at one point the queues snaked outside the building and a lot of passengers had the same complaint, they weren't told what was going on and they felt isolated and stranded. the number of people had to make alternative plans, catch transport to other airports if they wished to travel on. it has had a huge impact throughout the day. what we saw after the announcement of cancellations is people in hi vis jackets... cancellations is people in hi vis jackets- - -_ cancellations is people in hi vis i jackets. . ._ they

palestinians have been killed in an israeli air strike on a training college near gaza city which was being used to distribute aid. witnesses say the strike hit part of a vocational college run by the un palestinian refugee agency unrwa which is providing aid to displaced families. a spokesperson from unrwa said that since the beginning of the war, nearly 190 of their buildings have been hit and a total of 193 unwra workers killed. the israel military is yet comment on the attack. the israeli military has admitted its forces violated protocol by strapping a wounded palestinian man to a jeep during what it called a "counter—terrorism operation" in the city ofjenin in the west bank on saturday. a warning: viewers may find the video we're about to show distressing. the man can be seen lying on the hood of a vehicle as it drives past two ambulances. we've decided to blur the image. his family said he was injured during the raid by israeli soldiers. the idf confirmed the incident, saying it "violated orders", adding that it would be investigated and dealt with accordingly. the un special rapporteur, francesca albanese, has accused israel of using the man as a human shield. earlier i spoke to yaakow katz, who is a former editor in chief of the jerusalem post and currently a senior fellow at the jewish people policy institute. the video is deeply disturbing, i think anyone who watches it will be disturbed seeing those types of images and the idf have announced they are looking into this and it goes against any procedural protocol that the military has. this is not the way that any military should be operating and i think we have to wait to see what the investigation reveals because the idf will be looking in to see what happened here and if this was used in the case of a human shield, or some way to evacuate someone who might have been wounded in gunfire exchange, whatever the circumstances were, people should not be tied up to the hood of an engine of a militaryjeep. what is the process for the idf looking into it? the idf has a thorough process and is rigorous over the years looking into different incidences that take place. soldiers have stood trial in the past for deviations from orders and violations of what should be the standard procedure, whether it's abuse of people who have been detained or whatever the circumstances might be. the israeli military is like no other military in the world. there are going to always be rotten apples within the ranks of any military force in the world. if that is what happened in this case then there is no doubt in my mind that the soldiers and commanders as well need to be held accountable. how rigorous is the process? the israeli human rights group data suggest fewer than i% of all complaints result in prosecutions. there are soldiers that have stood trial, soldiers sent to jail. the idf is constantly and continuously looking into itself, reviewing and investigating. there is the military advocate general, police investigation unit. it accompanies all operations. we've seen launching an opening of numerous probes during the gaza offensive after the october the 7th massacre. during routine operations the military advocate general lawyers are accompanying idf forces and are looking into things as they unfold. as should be the case. and again, if this was the case here would need to be an account for what the soldiers did and it appears, at least on video, but on video it appears to be a violation and deviation of what they should be doing. do you think there is a culture fostered around soldiers? you mentioned the phrase rotten apples but does that speak to a wider culture? i would totally dismiss that. this is a complete deviation of how the idf operates. on the contrary, the culture you see in the israeli military is one that goes to the greatest lengths and does the most unbelievable things to preserve the lives of civilians and the other side. whether it's the dropping of leaflets in gaza, whether the calls to people to evacuate, whether it's calling off strikes before they happen, as missiles are midair because some of the civilians have entered into the kill zone. the idf does things that military experts have said is far beyond the norm and the numbers speak for themselves. looking at the gaza war right now, the combatant civilian ratio is one—to—one. for every combatant killed, one civilian. while the loss of civilian life is a tragedy it's comparable to any conflict, the united nations will tell you the averages one to nine. one combatant, nine dead civilians and in the israeli war it's one—to—one. the culture is completely different. this is a bad thing that never should have happened and i hope that if it's found to be the case, that the israeli military advocate general will hold the soldiers accountable. do you think some of the dehumanising language used to describe palestinians by senior officials, does not have an effect? i think that any comments or abhorrent remarks that dehumanise anyone should never be acceptable. however, that is not the culture and not the norm. every country and government and society is always going to have people who are on the extreme. the question we have to ask ourselves is what is the culture and what is the norm and the average person in israel and the average person in politics? unlike hamas, we see still today 70% of palestinians support hamas. the same terrorist group that perpetrated the greatest massacre ofjews since the holocaust. that's different. 70% of israelis do not support what happened. in terms of the 70% figure, there haven't been elections there so i'm not sure where that figure has come from. that's a palestinian pollster so you can take it up with them. finally, in terms of the potential tensions between the idf and mr netanyahu, where do you see that affecting things militarily and politically? we've been nine months almost inside the gaza strip, this offensive is continuing, the idf has significant targets and has been very successful with many gains and successes on the battlefield in any engagement with hamas, whether it's in rafah or other places in the gaza strip. for wars to end, you need a political resolution, a ceasefire or other agreement. i hope it will include release of israeli hostages, there are still 120 being held against their will. we want to get those people back home. the prime minister is not articulating the political resolution he wants to see in the idf is saying we are near the end of what we can do in terms of the battle. we need to complement it with some sort of political initiative and we are yet to see what that is. thank you for your thoughts and analysis today. meanwhile, there continues to be growing unrest on israel's northern border with lebanon. the two sides have exchanged cross—border exchanges of fire for months, fueling fears of a wider conflict. this was the scene yesterday in lebanon's bekaa valley, a0 kilometres from the border. the israeli army said it had carried out a drone attack on a moving vehicle, to target a man accused of supplying hamas with weapons. now it's time for a look at today's sport with tulsen. scotland's big day has arrived as they make final preparations for their last euro 2024 group game which sees them taking on hungary. they're bidding to get to the knockout stages of a major tournament for the first time. a win for steve clarke's side in stuttgart should be enough for progression out of their group. and the importance of their match isn't lost on midfielderjohn mcginn. we all know the magnitude of the game. it's a chance for us to write ourselves in the history books and become a unique scotland team. for us i think everyone wants to be the hero but it's important we just play the game normally. we know we are capable of getting three points and if it is me, i'll take one off the right shin to get it in the bottom corner. sunday's other game sees hosts germany face switzerland in frankfurt. the two sides are battling it out to top group a. switzerland may still need a point to qualify whereas germany confirmed their place with a win over the hungarians on wednesday. translation: we do feel the support of the fans. i it stimulates us and gives us that extra kick. get the impression the germans are believing in us once again and we must give further momentum to this passion. we must further foster it. this can only happen if we believe in ourselves. i don't know the secret but we simply got back in the saddle and obtained some good results and we got a very good start to this tournament. there is very positive energy. in the copa america, mexico beatjamaica1—0 in their opening game of the tournament but lost their captain edson alvarez to a potentially tournament—ending injury. the only goal of the game came through gerardo arteaga in the second half, shortly after west ham forward michail antonio had a goal ruled out by var forjamaica. but antonio's club team mate alvarez went off in tears in the first half clutching his hamstring and could miss the rest of the tournament. england are playing the usa and barbados. a win would put them in a strong position to reach the semifinals. the usa are currently 67-3 semifinals. the usa are currently 67—3 unveil in the 11th over. there was a moment of cricketing history as afghanistan beat australia at the t20 world cup. pat cummins took a second hat—trick in as many games — the first player to achieve the feat in t20 internationals. but australia collapsed from 106—6 to 113—9 and eventually fell 21 runs short, to seal victory for afghanistan — their first against the aussies in any form of the game. it gives, you know, the people back home so much hope, and especially the young generation, getting involved in cricket and getting that attention into the sport, and also the nation. cricket is the only source of happiness back home, we all know that, and i feel like we are so lucky to be here giving those happenings to the people back home. we hardly see those events back home where they can celebrate and enjoy those moments, but these little games are big games, to be honest, in the world cup. it gives them so much happiness and that is something which really, really satisfies me. and the spanish grand prix is under way in barcelona. england are now 67—1; against the usa in the t20 world cup. i'll be back later. now some politics news. a fourth senior conservative is being investigated by the gambling commission over allegations that he placed bets on the timing of the general election. the party's chief data officer, nick mason, denies any wrongdoing. our political correspondent harry farley reports. that is fantastic. what has been some of your highlights? all smiles at this event on friday but it has been a difficult week for rishi sunak. four conservatives, including two candidates, are being looked into by the gambling commission. the tories' chief data officer, nick mason, has taken a leave of absence 11 days from polling day. he is being investigated over alleged bets placed on the timing of the election. he denies any wrongdoing. there are questions if there are more names to come. to your knowledge, home secretary, did any ministers put a bet on the timing of the election? not to my knowledge at all. i have been absolutely clear that from what i've read, i am not in any way going to defend the actions of these individuals. but i'm also conscious that i don't have the full details. the only organisation that does is the gambling commission and it is right that they take action, whatever the appropriate action. and they have been clear that we should not discuss this. labour were unsurprisingly critical. the issue here is that whether those people who had inside knowledge of what was going on used that information in placing a bet. people across the country will place bets but i think there is genuine disgust amongst so many voters that what we are seeing here is pretty shocking behaviour. if you want to know how angry some senior conservatives are, look at this from michael gove in the sunday times. more than four weeks after rishi sunak stepped out to announce the election, its surprise date is still causing controversy. harry farley, bbc news. an aide to the home secretary — who's responsible for overseeing the government's plan to send some asylum seekers to rwanda — has used derogatory language about the policy. james sunderland — who is standing for the conservatives at the election — was recorded expressing the view at a private event in april. but he went on to defend the plan, saying it would deter migrants from crossing the channel. he was speaking on the 2nd of april at an event for young conservatives. our politics correspondent jessica parker has been following this story. i think this is language thatjames sunderland, a conservative candidate and an aide in the home office, would not have used in public to describe what is a flagship government policy. he has said he's disappointed to have been recorded in this context. as you said, it was a private event. but it's a policy as a home office aide that he has intimate knowledge of. in recording, what we hear him talk about it he describes this policy to send some asylum seekers to rwanda as "crap". he goes on to say if flights take off that would send a shockwave across the english channel, he means to deter gangs carrying out the people smuggling. his boss james cleverly, the home secretary, has been out on the airwaves this morning. he was quite eager to point to what he said was mr sunderland talking about how this scheme is, they believe, going to act as a deterrent in terms of small boat crossings on the english channel. mr cleverley thought that maybe his colleaguejames sunderland had used the word "crap" to grab the audience's attention. just a bit of context on the rwanda scheme. it's caught a lot of attention. no flights have yet taken off under the scheme as it's faced legal challenges. meanwhile, so far this year more than 12,000 people have crossed the english channel in small boats. the labour party have described the policy as a "gimmick" — the conservative party say of labour that "they are not offering any kind of credible alternative." the president of argentina javier milei has met the german chancellor olaf scholz in berlin. this is mr milei's first official visit to germany, since taking office six months ago. but the visit has already been accompanied by protests and controversy. our berlin correspondent damien mcguinness has more about mr milei's visit. what we do know is that the whole ceremonial side of this and the public statements by the two leaders and the joint press conference which had been planned was all cancelled on wednesday which is pretty last—minute for a big military honours ceremony. and this came just two days after quite stark comments from a spokesman for the german government saying that, really being very critical of comments from president milei about the wife of the spanish prime minister. back in may, a huge row kicked off when president milei accused or claimed the wife of the spanish prime minister was corrupt and that led to a huge diplomatic rift between the two countries. it's one example of how outspoken president milei is. and on monday when the spokesperson of the german government was asked about this he said, we can't choose the people we need to talk to and described the comments as "unpleasant". two days later all the official stuff was cancelled. we don't know if it's a direct link but it shows how tricky this meeting is. on the one hand you've got a flamboyant, some would call populist right—wing leader from argentina. on the other hand you've got the german chancellor, who is very restrained and low—key and a pragmatist and also from a left—wing party. these are two characters who don't really see eye to eye but both have interests in common which is about trade and the economy. that's why they've been meeting today. stay with us here on bbc news. there is more on all our stories on the bbc news website. we've had a taste of some of this weekend. that summer heat continuing into the start of next week but it doesn't mean it's going to be sunny the whole time. many of us saw quite a lot of cloud on sunday. this was the view in gloucestershire. if you manage to get that sometime coming through, well, it definitely looked like a picture postcard in worthing. over the next few days, yes the heat will be building and we will continue to see some sunny spells. a bit of rain in the forecast as possible. as we had three this evening and overnight it is going to be very, very mild with temperatures quite uncomfortable for some. generally clear skies, cloud across central and eastern areas and those temperatures may be not falling any lower than 16 across some southern parts, even for the north nine or ten, still very mild. monday morning might start with a bit of mistiness. this weather front is just trying to edge into northern ireland, parts of western scotland. here perhaps more cloud and drizzle. plenty of dry and fine weather across northern parts of england and temperatures widely in the mid—20s in celsius. some parts of aberdeenshire might even make 26 celsius tomorrow afternoon. pollen levels generally going to be very high across the uk. if you have hay fever, we don't need to tell you that. three monday and into tuesday, we have this cold front still trying to make its way on high—pressure, trying to keep it at bay but the cold front will eventually bring quite a bit more cloud to many northern parts of the uk. further south, some blue skies coming through. generally it's going to be dry but that front may give us a few showers, from scotland extending into northern england. you can see the temperature difference where the fun comes through. further south of the front it's still 26 or even 28. feeling oppressively hot, set on getting that way in some southern parts. any changes on the way. this area of low pressure is trying to move on as we head through wednesday. it will take its time. wednesday. it will take its time. wednesday looking generally like a mostly dry day with some sunny spells. it will start to turn wet as we head towards the end of the week. this is bbc news, the headlines. dozens of flights to and from manchester airport have been cancelled due to a major power outage — causing chaos for thousands of passengers. the airport's managing director has apologised to all those affected. a uk government aide has come underfire — after using derogatory language to describe the flagship rwanda migrant policy. an israeli air strike on a training college near gaza city has killed eight palestinians —according to witnesses. the strike reportedly hit an industrial college run by a un refugee angency, which now provides aid to displaced families. ronaldo takes a selfie with a young pitch invader, as portugal book their place in the knock—out stages of euro 202a. meanwhile scotland prepares for a crucial match against hungary later today — victory could get them to the knock—out stages of a major competition for the very first time. now on bbc news , it's newscast with laura kuenssberg and paddy o'connell. in campaigns sometimes you have the journalistic boon of recordings that were not knowingly made by the person who was speaking, if that makes any grammatical sense. it doesn't, really... one such recording made its way to my ears in the last couple of days, rather unfortunately for the home office, where a member of james cleverly�*s team is overheard saying something rather rude. so we will be talking about that on today's newscast,
