Decision to acknowledgejerusalem as israels capital could jeopardise middle east peace efforts. In israel, Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahyu says the sooner palestinians accept the decision the sooner there will be peace. But the change in us policy has been met by widespread anger across the arab and muslim world and as our middle east editor sebastian usher reports, the protests have been escalating. Tear gas was fired into a crowd of around 1,000 protesters in beirut as they tried to reach the us embassy this morning. Effigies of President Trump and us flags were burned by angry groups of Palestinian Refugees and lebanese activists. Translation we are here to tell the us embassy, the embassy of the aggressor, thatjerusalem is arab, it was arab and it will stay arab. Large rallies have been held in the moroccan capital, rabat. And in cairo too. As protesters try to build momentum across the region against President Trumps decision. In istanbul, thousands turned out to hear president erdogan launch a blistering attack on President Trump and israel. Translation israel, it is a terrorist state, yes, terrorist. We will not abandonjerusalem to the mercy of a state that kills children. That earned him a fierce riposte from the israeli Prime Minister, benjamin netanyahu, who said he wasnt used to receiving lectures on morality from a leader who bombs kurdish villages. He also had an uncompromising message onjerusalem. It has always been our capital. And jerusalem has never been the capital of any other people. I think, the sooner the palestinians come to grips with this reality, the sooner well move towards peace. But as clashes again broke out near the fence between gaza and israel, many fear that mr trumps move will reignite extremist violence. Sebastian usher, bbc news. Israels Prime Minister will be meetng european leaders to discuss bilateral relations and regional developments later this week. But it seems his meeting with the french president did not persuade Emmanuel Macron to accept the declaration of jerusalem as the capital. Translation i explained my disapproval of the recent declarations by the president of the United States which france considers in breach of International Law. I believe that the statements do not serve security, including the security of israel and the israelis. France remains convinced that the only solution in accordance with International Law and in accordance with our long term commitments is to enable the establishment of two states living side by side in peace and this can only happen, thanks to negotiations. The white house has said it is unfortunate that the palestinians have pulled out of a planned meeting with Vice President mike pence. But Officials Say they are still working towards achieving peace between israelis and palestinians. Heres americas ambassador to the united nations, nikki haley, summing up the position when you recognise the truth, when both parties recognise reality, peace comes and thats just, um, thatjust the true reality of the situation. We are living in the reality that jerusalem is the capital of israel but if you notice when the president spoke, he made it very clear. He didnt talk about boundaries, he didnt talk about borders, he didnt get into any of that, because the final status of jerusalem is between the palestinians and the israelis its not for the americans to decide so we are doing what we do in every other country, israel should be no different, and then we are going to continue to support the peace process. Earlier our north america correspondent david willis explained the difficulties the white house faces in trying to secure peace talks. The United States is making clear that it remains committed to peace in the middle east but its going to be an uphill battle, particularly given this snub of Vice President mike pence. He was standing behind donald trump when he made that controversial announcement about jerusalem last week and mr trump indeed went on to say that mike pence would be sent to the middle east to reaffirm americas ties to its partners there. Now, mike pence was due to meet with with Mahmoud Abbas in bethlehem now, mike pence was due to meet with Mahmoud Abbas in bethlehem in just over a weeks time that will not now be happening. The palestinians are saying they have no interest indeed in talking with the United States until such time as donald trump reverses his controversial decision last week. Now, mike pences spokesman, in a statement, said that that was unfortu nate, as he put it, unfortunate that the palestinians were walking away from an opportunity to discuss the future of the region. But given the global condemnation and the protests in the region and elsewhere, this clearly remains a very, very difficult decision, a very difficult announcement for the americans to get past at this time. The winner of this years Nobel Peace Prize has warned that the world could be just a moment of panic away from a nuclear war. Beatrice fihn was accepting the award on behalf of her organisation, the International Campaign to abolish Nuclear Weapons. She warned that the current tensions on the Korean Peninsula meant mutual destruction was only one impulsive tantrum away. A moment of panic or carelessness, a misconstrued comment or a boost ego could easily lead us to the destruction of entire cities. Or a bruised ego could easily lead us to the destruction of entire cities. A calculated military escalation could lead to the indiscriminate murder of civilians.

The family of Nazanin Zaghari ratcliffe says a Court Appearance scheduled for this weekend had been postponed following a visit to iran by the British Foreign secretary, borisjohnson.

Mrjohnson met the iranian president , Hassan Rouhani where its believed he pressed for her release. 0ur Diplomatic CorrespondentJames Robbins reports. Borisjohnson spent nearly an hour with irans president , Hassan Rouhani, that access itself seen as a good sign as improving relations. The Foreign Office says both sides spoke forthrightly about obstacles in the relationship and the need to make progress. Once again, Boris Johnson raised the case of dual nationals in iranian prisons, including Nazanin Zaghari ratcliffe. We now know the foreign secretary last night met some of nazanins family in tehran. In london, her husband richard is much happier today, showing me pictures of his iranian family and delighted by the fact that nazanin didnt have to face a possible Court Appearance today. He told me about the family meeting with borisjohnson. The foreign secretary also met with nazanins father and had a long chat, 45 minutes, with him, talked about it and he said i have raised her case with everyone i have met. This is important. I will keep worrying and battling for her. Dont worry, were caring for her and well do what we can. They came away pretty hopeful. So if there has been progress in these uk iran talks, where might it have been made . The foreign secretary has been careful to say nothing publicly while in iran. But a Foreign Office statement says the two sides discussed the full range of issues, including banking matters and our concerns about the consular cases of dual nationals. Those banking matters include two major iranian grievances one, that no uk bank will open an account for Irans Embassy in london, fearful that it could put them in trouble with us authorities. There are signs that that could be sorted soon. Second, the iranians want britain to repay a long standing debt of around £400 million. A way to do that without breaching sanctions also looks closer. Both sides say these issues are not linked to prisoner releases, but giving one side something it wants often helps the other to give in return. 0ne gift to britain would be the reunion of nazanin with her three year old daughter, gabriella, seen here just before her arrest in april last year. The family is feeling much more positive. The Foreign Office delegation left iran sensing that both sides wanted to resolve the difficult issues in the relationship. James robbins, bbc news.

Mr maduro made the announcement after sundays polls to choose mayors in more than 300 towns and cities were boycotted by the opposition. He said only parties which took in the mayoral polls could contest the presidency.

That is the criteria constitutionally ruled. I as head of state support them. They will not be able to participate and they will disappearfrom able to participate and they will disappear from the political map. 0ur correspondent katy watson sent this assessment from a polling station in the north of the country the government candidate came early to vote while hugo chavez watch. This woman places a note in his pocket telling him in many years she has not received help from the government. People are disillusioned with politics here. Those who did vote were divided. The day before the elections, became across far bigger queues than we saw at the voting centre. This is a part of life very common in venezuela. Theyve been here since six this morning in the heat waiting the gas. They have not had cooking gas for two months. The people here politics is of little concern. People start to block the road in protest. Desperation gets the better of one man but kew jumpers desperation gets the better of one man but kewjumpers are not welcome here and he is sent away. Translation we do not have cooking gas, in an oil rich country, the richest country in latin america. Translation the ones that now, weve never had any help from the government. Politicians need to wake up government. Politicians need to wake up and sort it out. I may get in trouble this but i am venezuelan and i have needs like anybody else.

Venezuelas leader Nicolas Maduro says hes banning the main will opposition parties from standing in next years president ial sundays mayoral vote. The internet, whether its social media or shopping online, is a presence in most of our lives and its dominance among children is becoming more apparent. But new research from unicef is warning that too little is being done to protect them from the dangers of the Digital World. Every day 176,000 children go online for the first time, with 15 to 2a year olds the most connected age group. Worldwide, 71 are online, compared with 48 of the total population. African youth are the least connected, with around three out of five youth offline, compared to just one in 25 in europe. The online world is dominated by english language websites. Approximately 56 are in english. Sexual abuse is a big concern. More than nine in ten child sexual abuse urls identified globally are hosted in five countries canada, france, the netherlands, the russian federation, and the United States. Earlier, laurence chandy, unicefs director of data, research and policy, explained some of the problems internet safety poses for children. Well, unfortunately, the internet has become a one stop shop for the sexual abuse of children. Its a place where children and customers of sexually explicit material can be recruited. It is where businesses can be organised. Its whether material can ultimately be advertised and distributed, and all with a high degree of anonymity. And all that means that the whole business of Sexual Exploitation of children has become more profitable and children are therefore increasingly at risk. There are some aspects of the web that support this, including the anonymous payment platforms and encrypted platforms by which the material can be spread. I believe that your viewers may be seeing some footage right now which unicef provided of a 12 year old girl, from the philippines, who was coerced into performing sexually explicit acts on line for extremely modest payments. To linger around. The Companies Whose platforms are often used to spread explicit material of children. Lets take a look at some of the other stories making the news.
