Hello, im samantha simmonds. We start in morocco, where Search And Rescue crews are working to reach people in the areas worst affected by friday nights powerful earthquake, which is now known to have killed more than 2,000 people. Three days of National Mourning have been declared. This is the small town of asni, in the atlas mountains, where few buildings have been left undamaged by the 6. 8 magnitude quake. Rescue teams have reached asni, after the Moroccan Army cleared a landslide on the access road. But other small Rural Communities remain cut off by rockfalls and there are reports of entire villages flattened. 0ur correspondent nick beake has made it to another community in the atlas mountains. This is amizmiz, in the atlas mountains. And you can see the destruction here. These were typically one and two storey buildings that came crashing down, and people have been picking through the rubble for their possessions. But of course, its notjust possessions. Many lives have been lost here, too. And just talking to someone a short time ago, they estimate at least 150 people have died, and that is a conservative estimate because ever since this earthquake struck, people have been trying to work through the rubble to find signs of life. If you just look up the road here, you get a sense of why people have been sleeping out overnight once again, because even if houses havent been completely destroyed, the walls have caved in, in many cases, roofs have given way, and people are just very fearful of going back into their houses, extremely worried that there could be another earthquake or aftershocks in the coming hours. In terms of reaching this place, our path was strewn with debris, with rocks. And of course, that is a much more important, more significant thing for the rescuers, the Emergency Services who are trying to get here. The reality is further up into the mountains, many more people have died, and reaching those communities is proving extremely difficult. And that is the focus of the effort here in morocco today. Lets turn to the tourist hub of marrakesh, around 72 kilometres or 45 miles from the epicentre. This was the moment the quake struck there, prompting people to sprint for the streets. The city has reported a lower death toll than other areas, but considerable damage to buildings. Thousands of moroccans spent a second Night Sleeping outside on the streets, fearing aftershocks. Some have been describing their fears and sense of loss. Translation | returned to my house and noticed many cracks in the walls. I cannot sleep there. Translation | returned to my house and noticed many cracks in the walls. I cannot sleep there. Im asking the authorities to help me and bring in an expert translation | returned to my house and noticed many to assess whether its possible for me to return to the house or not. Look where all these people are sleeping. Theres no help for us. 0ur houses have been cracked, others destroyed, like my daughters house, which has collapsed. We are in a chaotic state. Its painful to enter the ancient city and witness the collapsed homes and see people in great suffering. Its a painful experience when this happens to your brother or sister. J its really painful. Anna holligan is in marrakesh for us. Iam inside i am inside the historic heart of marrakesh. The unesco World Heritage site. Surrounded by these piles of rubble. I just want to give you a full picture of what is happening in the city because we are outside this famous Jemaa El Fnaa mosque and you can see the minaret is partially collapsed. Rubble is being brought from across the city and amongst the bricks and clay, you have bits of porcelain. If i can take you over here, you can see the force of the quake brought down street signs, over here, you can see some of the rubble has crushed cars on the bonnet of this land rover. And the bonnet of this land rover. Just behind here, there are actually some rescue teams working on the rooftops. People in these restaurants have talked about the force of the quake. Weve been speaking to tourists who said they thought it was some kind of terror attack, a bombing, such was the strength. But really, now the Rescue Efforts are focused on those remote areas, and the red cross has said the next 21t hours will be critical in reaching any survivors who are still trapped beneath the rubble of their clay homes around the epicentre of the atlas mountains. And you have this strange juxtaposition because here in the old city, people are setting up their stalls again. Theyre trying to resume a sense of normality, amidst the chaos. Some tourists are waiting to get out, but they are struggling to get flights. A lot of people have told us theyre not hearing from the authorities. Good news that the army has managed to clear one of those access routes to reach those remote Rural Communities most affected in terms of the destruction, but also, of course the death toll. Amidst all of this, were also hearing stories of hope. And of people coming to help from right across the country. They have been coming in. Footballers, members of the Moroccan National team have been giving blood and encouraging others to do the same. Because as well as the more than 2,000 people now confirmed dead, thousands of others have been injured, some of them are in a critical condition, so that help is vital. Im just going to bring you round here to show you a bit more of the damage. There are homes just over here, the whole facades have been completely destroyed, diggers are taking away some of the debris. All around this historic heart of marrakesh, people were camping out overnight, they brought sheets and blankets to try and have some form of protection. Because many people here are still afraid of aftershocks, theyre afraid for the next 21t hours or so, there is still a risk. So until that risk has passed, until they are sure they can be safe, they will remain outside, along with many of the tourists who are here. We just spoke to an australian couple who said when the quake struck, they dived under the bed and then they, along with thousands of other people, came out of their hotels, their homes and riads and just sought shelter in the open air. The uk Prime Minister rishi sunak has warned the chinese premier of his significant concerns about beijings interference in democracy. It follows the arrest of a parliamentary researcher on suspicion of spying. Mr sunak met li qiang at the g20 summit in delhi hours after news of two arrests in the uk under the Official Secrets Act emerged. Mr sunak has been speaking in the past couple of hours. Well, i obviously cant comment on the specifics of an ongoing investigation, but with regard to my meeting with premier li, what i said very specifically is that i raised a range of different concerns that we have and areas of disagreement and, in particular, my very strong concerns about any interference in our parliamentary democracy, which is obviously unacceptable. Chris mason is travelling with the Prime Minister, and he gave me this update. So whats happened here, as the 620 comes to a conclusion, in the final hours, rishi sunak, the Prime Minister, has met the most senior chinese official here, premier li. The president xi jinping is not here, but he has raised concerns about the prospect of chinese interference in british parliamentary democracy. The contents of this is a report in the sunday times exposing the fact that two people have been arrested in the uk under the Official Secrets Act, and the paper says that one of them is a former parliamentary researcher, with links to several conservative mps, including a minister. Security minister tom tugendhat. And conservative mp, alessia kearns, who chairs the Foreign Affairs select committee. That means that weve got this new row bursting back out again in public within the Conservative Party over what is an appropriate relationship to have with china. The foreign Secretaryjames Cleverly was in beijing in the last couple of weeks, his argument is the uk has to be pragmatic in its dealings with china. There are other senior conservative figures, like iain duncan smith, a former party leader, who thinks that the attitude of the uk has to be much more cautious, much more hawkish. The context of these arrests in this report on the sunday times, alongside what were hearing from the british Prime Minister in his conversations with the chinese, gives you some sense of the concern at the heart of government about what has happened in recent months. These arrests date back to march. And what it might say about what china is trying to do in terms of interference, in terms of evidence gathering potentially within the british parliament, and how that should recalibrate, as some would see it, the relationship that london has with beijing. Yes, so going forward, then, how do they do that in the coming months, especially when they look towards an election . Its really, really tricky. Really tricky. What weve seen in the uk in the last six or seven years. And excuse the noise because were at the airport here in delhi. There is a plane which i need to get in a few minutes and its taxiing past us, hopefully not about to take off but the dilemma is one we have seen playing out over the last few years, which is this what do you do about china . It is this colossus, geopolitically and economically. David cameron, former Prime Minister, wanted a really close relationship with china, invited the president over to the uk. They were pictured having a pint together. The attitude now is much, much more circumspect, but the view is you have to maintain a relationship. Hence the visit of the Foreign Secretary recently. Whilst there are others making the case that that is, in their view, naive and the uk should be much, much more cautious. And those who make that argument, i think, will feel at least to a degree vindicated by this news in the sunday times of these arrests and these allegations. Chris mason there. Lets turn to delhi, where india has formally handed over the g20 presidency to brazil at the Closing Ceremony of the groups annual summit. Prime minister Narendra Modi completed the transition by passing the ceremonial gavel of the presidency to the brazils Luiz Inacio Lula da silva. Earlier, the leaders gathered for a ceremony at the memorial of Mahatma Gandhi, indias independence leader. On saturday, the group issued a joint declaration on the war in ukraine, but the statement made no mention of russian aggression. Christian fraser is in delhi at the summit and sent this update a short time ago. Summit and sent this update a short time auo. ,. , time ago. Yes, the leader is etting out of new time ago. Yes, the leader is Etting Out Of New Delhi time ago. Yes, the leader is Etting Out Of New Delhi this time ago. Yes, the leader is Etting Out Of New Delhi this hourh time ago. Yes, the leader is jEtting Out Of New Delhi this hour at time ago. Yes, the leader is jEtting Out Of New Delhi this hour at the i out of new delhi this hour at the end of two days of the g20 summit and i would think immense satisfaction on the part of the indians that they got the communique across the line because when the leaders arrived in 48 hours ago, there was a giant gap in that text specifically in relation to ukraine. There were 200 meetings to find the right language that would find consensus in the room. But today, as the gavel was passed to brazil, that communique adopted in full. Early in the day, though, a lot of it was about the ceremony. The leaders were out and about in new delhi. First lets focus on rishi sunak, who went to a hindu temple. Proud hindu himself, of chaos, with his wife, akshata murty. This temple was in new delhi. He prayed there, they were shown around the temple. Then he made his way to the memorial for Mahatma Gandhi, who of course was assassinated in 1948, just after india had secured its independence from the british empire. This is the spot where Mahatma Gandhi was cremated all those years ago. Until 20 leadersjoining in the rain, monsoon weather here in india today, in the rain to present their memorial to Mahatma Gandhi and all 20 leaders. Interesting because of course, he was a man who was very much focused on self reliance, he made his own clothes, he didnt want to pay taxes to the british empire, Mahatma Gandhi, and there is a little bit of that in Narendra Modi. He talks about india becoming self reliant itself and there is a theme there in the way he approaches theme there in the way he approaches the Indian Economy at the moment. But for him personally, mr modi, in the run up to an election next year and a third term, i would think he would be very pleased with what he has got out of the weekend. But lets talk specifically about the ukraine passage because that is where most of the focus has been. And particularly how it has been watered down when you compare it to the document they agreed in bali a year ago. The document they agreed in bali a yearago. So the document they agreed in bali a year ago. So gun is, deplores in the strongest terms the aggression by the Russian Federation against you train gone. And inserted in its place, we reiterated our national positions, all states must refrain from the threat of force to seek territorial acquisition. Sergei lavrov has been giving a Press Conference just one hour ago at a hotel here in new delhi, clearly well satisfied with the language that they secured. But he spoke specifically about the black sea initiative, the supply of grain which they have cut off, they have walked away from that deal and they have renewed their bombardment of ukrainian ports, which was widely condemned here. Mr lavrov said it is possible to revive the black sea initiative, as long as the west removes obstacles to the export of russian grain and fertiliser. Here is the response from the british Prime Minister, rishi sunak. The 620 is obviously a Prime Minister, rishi sunak. The 620 is obviously a large Prime Minister, rishi sunak. The 620 is obviously a large collection Prime Minister, rishi sunak. The 620 is obviously a large collection of is obviously a large collection of countries is obviously a large collection of countries that dont all necessarily share countries that dont all necessarily share the countries that dont all necessarily share the same values and the same perspective, but its important that the 620 perspective, but its important that the 620 has come together and issued very strong the 620 has come together and issued very strong condemnation for the impact very strong condemnation for the impact of very strong condemnation for the impact of the war in ukraine on food prices impact of the war in ukraine on food prices and impact of the war in ukraine on food prices and energy security, that is something prices and energy security, that is something that i was keen to highlight, im glad that that is there highlight, im glad that that is there in highlight, im glad that that is there in a highlight, im glad that that is there in a statement in black and white. And it is very strong black and white. And it is very strong hand language highlighting the suffering that the war is doing amid the suffering that the war is doing amid the the suffering that the war is doing amid the impact it is having on food prices amid the impact it is having on food prices and amid the impact it is having on food prices and the need for russia to rejoin prices and the need for russia to rejoin the prices and the need for russia to rejoin the black Sea Grain Initiative and a hat halt attacks on Civilian Initiative and a hat halt attacks on civilian infrastructure in ukraine on civilian infrastructure in ukraine.

Prime minister Prime Minister rishi sunak in delhi. I now to ukraine, where there are little more than 30 days of fighting left, before the weather will hinder kyiv� s counter offensive. Thats according to americas top ranking us Military Officer. Speaking to the bbc, general mark milley said colder conditions would make it much harder for ukraine to manoeuvre. It comes as kyiv was attacked by russian drones early on sunday, with debris falling in several districts. But ukrainian Officials Say no casualties have been reported. At least ten explosions were heard in the capital, as air raid sirens sounded. 0ur correspondent in kyiv, paul adams, gave us his assessment of the Current Situation and the progress of the counter offensive. I think people will be scratching their heads a little bit around here because in the last couple of weeks, theyve talked about making progress on the battlefield. Everyone is conscious that winter is coming. I dont think anyone here would say that it has 30 days or so left for a fighting season. But they are determined to fight well into the late autumn and into the winter and there is no reason really why they shouldnt. Certain forms of warfare become much, much harder and so there will be challenges, but as far as ukraine is concerned, it is determined to keep pushing ahead. In the meantime, the cost of this war in terms of the suffering experienced by people at the hands of the Russian Occupation forces is something that is occupying the minds of a lot of people. Weve heard repeatedly over the last year and a half of russias use of torture in its war in ukraine.

Paul adams in k iv. President joe biden has hailed a greater era of cooperation with vietnam as he arrived on a visit that aims to bring the two countries closer than theyve ever been and counter the rising influence of china in southeast asia. Hanoi and washington are expected to sign a new partnership agreement, less than 50 years after the end of a conflict that left millions of vietnamese and 58,000 us Service People dead. Here in the uk, a Terror Suspect who was on the run for more than three days sparking a major manhunt has now been returned to custody. 21 year old Daniel Khalife, a former soldier, escaped prison in south london on wednesday. He was caught on saturday, while riding a bike along a Canal Tow Path in west london. Detectives say they had more than hundred calls from people offering information about him. 0ur reporter Vincent Mcaviney sent this update from scotland yard. Well, the metropolitan police are continuing to question Daniel Khalife at a Police Station in west london. Now, that four day manhunt involved hundreds of officers and helicopters up searching parts of west london, like Richmond Park and chiswick. They received hundreds of tip offs from the public as to where he was. But in the end, it was actually a Plainclothes Police officer in northolt, in north west london, who Spotted Khalife on a bicycle going along a towpath on a canal. Now, he was wearing different clothes, he had a bag with food and he had a sleeping bag nearby as well. Now, that plainclothes officer pushed him off the bike and detained him. He says he didnt put up any kind of fight and went willingly in the end. This is what the head of the met� s Counter Terrorism police had to say about it all. One of the officers engaged in our operation to locate daniel, a plainclothes officer, saw him on the canal towpath, on a pedal cycle, a push bike, and was able to pull him off that push bike and arrest him. Weve been really focused, with the public support and also the support of the media, in trying to find daniel. Now weve found him and hes back in custody. We will move our resources now back into the investigative effort to identify how he came to escape from Wandsworth Prison and support any criminal charges that might follow. Well, he was found about 14 miles from Wandsworth Prison and the police saying, really, all that public support helped them track him down. But there are still many questions. Theyre trying to figure out what exactly happened over the last few days, if he received help both inside and outside prison. Hes likely to face more charges and be taken not back to wandsworth, but to the high security belmarsh prison, where many say he should have been in the first place. The ukjustice Secretary Alex Chalk has confirmed that approximately 40 prisoners have been moved from Wandsworth Prison, following Daniel Khalifes escape. But hes told sunday with Laura Kuenssberg that the initial findings of a report into the escape have shown that the necessary Security Arrangements were in place at the jail.

But were also going to see some heavy and some thundery downpours that are going to work their way gradually further northwards through the day. Now, the last six days in a row, weve had temperatures above 30 celsius. Yesterday was the hottest day, at 33. 2. Were probably going to see the seventh day above 30 degrees today. So heat and humidity for many of us. But those thundery downpours on the cards, too. Over the next few days, things change a little, as weve got this waving, fairly slow moving weather front, which just slowly creeps its way southwards. And by around about tuesday, were going to start to see that cooler Air Filtering across all parts. But it will take a while for the hot and humid weather to get out of the way from the southeast. For Anyone Running the Great North Run today, i think its looking dry through the morning, the threat of some heavy showers and some thunderstorms into the evening hours. And it certainly will feel quite hot and humid for running into the afternoon. Well see heavy showers affecting wales, through the midlands, perhaps into parts of Central Southern England as well. Still some sunshine for east anglia and the southeast, sunshine for central scotland, Northern Ireland as well. And the weather will improve for the likes of devon, cornwall, towards somerset as well. Heres where well see the heavy showers and the thunderstorms. If you do catch one, particularly through parts of Northern England, later on, Northern Ireland and southern scotland, it could be really torrential. So a lot of rain in a short space of time and the potential for some localised flash flooding. Its cooler where weve got the rain working in across the north west of scotland, just 14 for stornoway, mid 20s for many northern areas, but up to 32 for london and the south east again. Now, through the evening hours, heavy showers and thunderstorms affecting Northern Ireland, Northern England and scotland for a time. And that band of rain creeps its way further south. So its looking pretty wet for parts of scotland, in particular, drier further south, some mist and fog and muggy conditions again, but not quite as hot as recent nights. Into monday, then, and still some showers around across parts of Northern England, north wales. And for Northern Ireland and scotland, cloud and patchy outbreaks of rain further south and east. Across england and wales, youre likely to stay dry. And for the likes of east anglia and the south east, 27 or 28 degrees. So, still hot, still humid, but not quite as hot as weve seen over the past week or so. And then cooler, fresher air reaches all areas by around about tuesday. And its going to be a mix of sunshine and showers through much of the week ahead. Bye for now. This is bbc news. The headlines. The Moroccan Army has cleared a main road to the areas worst affected by fridays earthquake, allowing vital assistance to reach people. A landslide had blocked the road to the town of asni in the atlas mountains. The death toll currently stands at more than than 2,000. The uk Prime Minister rishi sunak has warned the chinese premier of his significant concerns about beijings interference in democracy. It follows the arrest of a parliamentary researcher on suspicion of spying. Americas top ranking us Military Officer has told the bbc that ukraines army has no more than 45 days of fighting left before autumn rains begin to hamper its offensive. General mark milley said the ukrainian attack was going more slowly than hoped but was progressing at a very steady pace. Those are the headlines here on bbc news. Now on bbc news.
