Theyve finally done it drama at headingley, as west indies win a test in england for the first time in 17 years. And coming up in sportsday on bbc news, defending champion Angelique Kerber has been knocked out of the us open, beaten by japanese teenager by naomi osaka. Good evening. President trump says all options are now on the table after north korea fired a Ballistic Missile overjapan last night. Japans Prime Minister says his country is now facing an unprecedented threat. China has warned that the crisis is now at a tipping point. The missile, which potentially has the power to carry a nuclear warhead, was fired eastward from near pyongyang at six in the morning local time. It flew over japans hokkaido island before crashing into the sea 700 miles off the japanese coast. Sirens blared out, and Text Messages were sent across northern japan, warning people in the missiles flight path to take cover. Our first report tonight is from Rupert Wingfield hayes in tokyo. Siren blares. This is how people in northern japan were awoken atjust after six this morning. A missile is passing, the announcer says. A missile is passing, please find shelter immediately. At city hall, there are frantic phone calls. Is there any damage . This is not a practice, this is real. A north Korean Missile has just flown overhead. Translation my phone was by my bed. Suddenly, it started ringing with alerts. I really shocked. We have nowhere to escape to, says this man, thats the scariest thing. The missile that flew overjapan is thought to be one of these, a hwasong i2. It was first seen at this huge parade in pyongyang in april. A month later, north korea shocked the world by successfully firing one into outer space. Today it has gone much further, forcing a grim faced japanese Prime Minister, shinzo abe, to address the nation. Translation this missile flown over japan is an outrageous act, and a critical threat that we have not seen before. There will be many who say this north Korean Missile launch is all about politics, that its north korean brinkmanship, and theyre probably right. But its not much consolation if you live here, underneath it. This was an extremely aggressive act by pyongyang, and it sends a very disturbing message to people here injapan. It can now hit tokyo with Nuclear Weapons, it can hit okinawa with Nuclear Weapons. You know, if you dont want to keep this game of escalation, we might want to sit down and Start Talking to each other. But right now, talking is the last thing on anyones mind here. Today, south korea sent f is fighter jets to bomb targets just south of the demilitarised zone. American heavy bombers could follow next. Each side now feels compelled to flex its military might, and so the spiral of tension is wound up yet again. Rupert Wingfield Hayes, bbc news, in tokyo. Tonight, an emergency meeting of the Un Security Council is getting under way in new york, with America Calling for serious action to deal with north Koreas Nuclear missile programme. The Prime Minister, theresa may, is on her way to japan tonight on a planned trip. She condemned the missile firing as reckless provocation. Our Diplomatic CorrespondentJames Landale looks at the options left for the International Community. This is a crisis showing little sign of resolution. North korea has now tested more than 20 missiles this year alone, and the aim of the countrys leader is simple to be able to fire a Nuclear Weapon wherever he wants. The main escalation came injuly, when it tested two long range intercontinental Ballistic Missiles, potentially able to reach the us mainland, prompting this. They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen. In response, north korea threatened to strike guam, the us island territory in the pacific. After todays test, the now familiar words of condemnation. These are illegal tests, we strongly condemn them, and we will be working with japan and other International Partners to ensure that pressure is put on north korea to stop this illegal action. This evening, diplomats are meeting in emergency session at the united nations, once again asking what can be done to change north koreas behaviour. President trump said all options were on the table. This was his ambassador. No country should have missiles flying over them, like those 130 Million People in japan. Its unacceptable, they have violated every single Un Security Council resolution that weve had, and so i think something serious has to happen. So what are the options . There could be more diplomacy, with the tough talk in public matched with quieter discussions in private. But north korea shows no sign its ready to listen. The International Community could impose stricter sanctions, but experts say these will bite only if they stopped the flow of oil and money from china. And the least likely option is military action, as any attempt to destroy north Koreas Nuclear capability could lead to massive retaliation against south korea. I think the bottom line is there is no magic bullet, no one of these options is going to deliver the outcome that the americans want. We will need some sort of coordinated, combined response. And for now, that is not happening. The us and south korea are carrying out military exercises that presume invasion from the north. China and russia say it is this that has provoked pyongyangs latest test. And the crisis is now at a tipping point, so the missiles keep flying, north koreas capability grows, and the International Community struggles for a meaningful response. James landale, bbc news. Rupert Wingfield Hayes in is tokyo now. That is the big question, how the International Community response. Yes, sophie, and i agree with what james said there. I mean, we will see the normal noises and processes that we have come to be familiar with, Un Security Council resolutions, more sanctions against north korea, more pressure from america and its allies on china to do something. But i think, realistically, as james said, there are no good options, and it is not what people want to hear, but the only thing the International Community really has to fall back on is the thing that has worked for the last 65 years, since the end of the korean war. Of course, there will be things like more missile defence, but it comes down to deterrence, the us and its allies, japan and south korea, sticking together and sticking to this promise to north korea that if you attack any of us, you attack all of us, and that if you attack all of us, and that if you do so, there will be an overwhelming military response from the United States in particular. That is what has kept the peace in this region on the Korean Peninsula for 65 years, and it is the thing that underpins stability in this region today. But as james said, these missile tests are testing those alliances, and they are making the situation more and more difficult each time there is an escalation. Rupert, in tokyo, thank you. President trump has arrived in texas to meet officials dealing with the devastating flooding in the wake of Tropical Storm harvey. More than four foot of rain has now fallen in houston, texas since the storm swept in on friday. More than 30,000 people have been forced from their homes by the storm, which has set a new record for rainfall in the state. Two dams near the city have begun overflowing, and a river has burst its banks. The dark blue areas on this map show when the rain has been falling most heavily. The authorities are warning that water levels will continue to rise. Our correspondent james cook is in houston. Yes, sophie, iam yes, sophie, i am standing yes, sophie, iam standing between the two reservoirs which are flooding more than 3000 homes in this area alone. At least 11 people are now known to have died, and incredibly, harris county, which includes houston and 4. 5 Million People, is said to be 30 flooded. Baby cries. Dont worry, its ok hes not the only one finding it tough. Its now four days since the hurricane, and still the rescues roll on and on. Were trying to get to a safer, drier place so. Hows the baby doing . Oh, hes fine, hes just scared. Are you scared . Just a little bit, yeah. In the chaos, though, there is some order. The boats have come from all over the United States, and not a moment too soon. There are a lot of people, they need help, and im thankful for these people, really am, ive never been through anything like this. This operation was fast and smooth. Police, soldiers, civilians, all working together. From above, they can see the problem, and its a big one. A reservoir a few blocks away is overflowing. It was built 80 years ago to protect the young city of houston, but nobody then imagined this. The pool of the reservoir is still rising, so flooding is going to continue along the structures and the homes that are against the western edge of the pool. So streets are going to be flooding. They will continue to flood. New streets will continue to flood, new homes will continue to flood. This is now what much of houston and its surrounding suburbs look like. Its eerie here. Everyone seems to have fled. And although the scale of this disaster is striking, it may yet get worse. Much of this water will eventually work its way downstream to the city itself where they are already struggling to cope. This shelter ran out of beds yesterday. Since then, 4000 more people have arrived. Even that is just a fraction of the number looking for a haven. When its raining outside, some people cant imagine a sunny day. And its been raining for a week. So imagine whats in peoples minds. The lines are so big and so long. We need more physicians, more doctors, more health care, for everybody in the whole facility. For houston, and for the us, this is a wake up yell. A giant of Global Commerce has been paralysed. Should the city have been evacuated . The mayor says no. You cant put 6. 5 Million People on the road two days before a storm when you dont know where its going. It is absurd. But the fabric of this city is now tearing. Even motorways are giving way, and as more deaths are reported, including one police officer, the strain is beginning to show. Once our dive team got there, it was too treacherous to go under and look for him. So we made the decision to leave officers there waiting until the morning. Because as much as we wanted to recover him last night, we couldnt put more officers at risk for what we knew in our hearts was going to be a recovery mission. Every hour brings news of more rescues, more people trapped, and more damage. With nearly 50 inches of rain, this is now a record breaking disaster. James cook, bbc news, houston. Well, President Trump flew into texas a few hours ago to assess for himself the damage caused by the massive storm. He has been meeting emergency workers in Corpus Christi where the storm first hit, dumping record amounts of rain in the past few days. Donald trump said he wanted the relief effort to stand as an example of how to respond to a storm. Our north america editor, jon sopel, reports from texas. A commander in chief determined to show that he is in command. President trump arrived in Corpus Christi this lunchtime, the city where Hurricane Harvey made landfall, and the crowds had gathered outside the fire station to hear him. Hed come to offer comfort and support. Thank you, everybody. Though it sounded more like a campaign rally. This is historic, its epic, what happened. But you know what . It happened in texas, and texas can handle anything. Thank you all, folks. Thank you, thank you. And with a flourish, he produced the flag of the lone star state. Cheering and applause to the crowds delight. Earlier he met the texas governor, greg abbott, and praised the co operation between state and federal government. We wont say congratulations. We dont want to do that. We dont want to congratulate. Well congratulate each other when its all finished. Contrast that with 12 years ago, and the disastrous handling of Hurricane Katrina and this utterly tone deaf comment from then president bush to his emergency relief coordinator. And, brownie, youre doing a heck of a job. The fema directors working 24. Applause actually, it was one heck of a mess. Nearly 2,000 people died, and in new orleans it was particularly bad. There was an evacuation, but it seemed that all those who left behind were black. President bushs reputation wouldnt recover. The response to harvey has been more sure footed, so far. Across this vast state, damage is being assessed. We went to la grange. So how far has it moved . Moved across there. So your home has moved across the street . Uhhuh. This mother, too, shows her children where their house once stood. This is just one small town in texas, and its estimated that some 500 homes have been destroyed here. At this trailer park, you can see that particular house has been uprooted, fallen on top of a car. And if we just move across, you can see the water bubbling up from the ground. Thats because there is a cracked gas line underneath and for the emergency services, it means it is still too dangerous to investigate. Were still in the foothills of this disaster. Thousands will remain homeless for months to come. Theres an economic reckoning to be had. Will congress agree to fund the rebuilding . And the biggest question of them all, as louisiana stands next in the path, has Tropical Storm harvey done his worst, or is there more devastation to come . Jon sopel, bbc news, texas. Well, jon sopel is now in austin where President Trump hasjust been visiting emergency teams. All eyes on how the president deals with this. How much is riding on it for him . Well, sophie, you started your bulletin tonight with the situation in north korea. That is undoubtedly the Biggest International challenge that donald trump faces, but if you look at the domestic scene, well, this is undoubtedly the biggest thing he has yet to deal with since he took office . January. So far youd have to say hes handling it very well. In terms of the immediate aftermath of the storm, he was pulling all the levers of government that he could to make sure that the federal rescue effort was in harmony with what was happening at state level as well. You say hes been here today. He is due to leave from this airport very shortly. He was also very careful to avoid the criticism that he was diverting resources away from where the rescue and recovery effort was under way. He went to Corpus Christi, where the situation is not too bad hes come here to austin, which is where the rescue is being co ordinated from without getting in the way and diverting resources. He has been sensitive to that as well. He says hes coming back on saturday to revisit and see the progress thats been made. As i said, there is an awful long way to do. There is a recognise reckoning to be had about the economic and human cost of this disaster. He seems to have avoided some of the pit walls false that George W BushGeorge W BushGeorge W Bush fell into theres a long way to go to. Donald trump knows the favourable reports hes getting now might not last if things go wrong. Jon sopel, in texas, thank you. Here, theresa may has been accused of watering down plans to tackle excessive executive pay. From nextjune, britains biggest firms will have to reveal how much more their chief executives are paid compared with the average worker. But critics have called the governments attempt to make boardrooms more transparent and accountable feeble and not as radical as originally planned. Heres our business editor, simonjack. A leadership and an election pitch to a party and a public that had lost faith in big business. We all know that in recent years the reputation of business as a whole has been bruised. That when a minority of businesses and business figures appear to game the system and work to a different set of rules. Im putting you on warning, this cant go on any more, a change has got to come and this party is going to make it. Applause since then, promises have been gradually shelved. A pledge to put workers on Company Boards was dropped, as was a plan to give shareholders a binding annual vote on executive pay. However, by forcing companies to publish the difference between its top earner and its average earner, this government has gone further than previous ones. When boards are setting pay, and when theyre disclosing pay, they shouldnt do it with an eye on pay in the board, but they should look at pay across the company and be prepared to set out publicly how they can justify boardroom pay, in the context of the pay that the rest of the workforce get. Those numbers could prove embarrassing. Last year the average boss of a top 100 company made £4. 5 million in total pay. Thats a 129 times as much as his or her average employee and thats compared to 20 years ago, when the b
