Five women have said in Legal Proceedings that Prince Andrew was present during massages they gave to the convicted sex offenderjeffrey epstein and his guests. The sworn statements to a us court were revealed in a bbc Panorama Programme containing an interview with Virginia Giuffre. She alleges that she was trafficked to britain at the age of 17, and then had sex with Prince Andrew. The prince has categorically denied any such relationship. Darragh macintyre reports. The allegations made by Virginia Giuffre about Prince Andrew have raised questions that wont go away. The lawyer for five ofjeffrey epsteins accusers says he wants Prince Andrew to testify as a witness in their court cases. The women say the prince witnessed how epstein and his guests were given massages at the sex offenders home. Panorama has been told that subpoenas have been prepared for the cases, and could be served on Prince Andrew if he returns to the United States. And that means that, the next time Prince Andrew visits the states, he faces being ordered to give evidence, whether he likes it or not. With respect to Prince Andrew, i think he needs to come clean, and i think the facts need to be revealed. Prince andrew says that he did not see, witness or suspect any suspicious behaviour during his visits to mr epsteins homes in florida, new york and the caribbean, and he says he is willing to help any appropriate Law Enforcement agency with their investigations if required. Virginia giuffre, who says she was trafficked to london by epstein to have sex with Prince Andrew, told panorama that she was introduced to him by the princes long standing friend Ghislaine Maxwell. She says that, after a visit to a nightclub, Ghislaine Maxwell instructed her to have sex with the prince. In court documents, Ghislaine Maxwell says all Virginia Giuffres allegations are lies. The people on the inside are going to keep coming up with these ridiculous excuses, like the photo was doctored. I mean, come on. Im calling bs on this, because thats what it is. He knows what happened, i know what happened, and theres only one of us telling the truth, and i know thats me. People who say that youre not telling the truth, they point to inconsistencies in your tale. How do you account for those . You are left with a foggy memory sometimes, you really are. So yeah, you know, i might be wrong on dates, absolutely. I might be wrong on places, even, sometimes. But one thing i can tell you is that you never forget the face of someone whos heaved over you. For his part, the duke of york emphatically denies any form of sexual contact or relationship with Virginia Giuffre, and says any claim to the contrary is false and without foundation. Darragh macintyre, bbc news. The victims of the London Bridge attack have been remembered at a vigil in central london. Saskia jones, who was 23, and 25 year old jack merritt were helping run a programme to educate offenders when one of those attending, usman khan, attacked people with a knife. Jack merritts father has criticised the response to the attack, especially pledges from politicians to review laws allowing the Early Release of convicted terrorists. This from our special correspondent lucy manning. In the city where recently jack merritt and saskia jones had proudly held their degree certificates, hundreds stood silent. His girlfriend, his mum and dad held onto each other as they were surrounded by support. Bell tolls this was what cambridge had meant to them. And this is what they meant to their friends and families. Jack merritts girlfriend, leanne, leaving flowers. In the city of london, minutes from where they died, the noise of political arguments quietened. Silence we come together this morning in condolences, but also in a spirit of defiance, to say that london will never be cowed or intimidated by terrorism. Bryonn bain was speaking at the Prison Education event on friday. He had spent the day before with jack merritt at a high security jail. He was inspiring. He had a bright light in his eyes. And he was a young kid, but he was a cambridge grad, so he could have gone anywhere, done anything, with his elite education, his privileged education. He ran down when he heard shouting in the building. It felt like a warzone, you know, it felt like total chaos. But, you know, these guys stepped up in the moment and did what few would do, and put their own lives in harms way. Professor bain says jack was the first to confront the attacker. He was brave in his own regard. He was the first line of defence. He was the first person to confront him at the door. I saw people die. You know, i saw things that im never going to be able to unsee. The first eyewitness from inside the building, he praised those former prisoners attending the event who fought back. Many of the folks in that space, you know, would not be here today, right, if it werent for these guys who did time in prison, and literally saved lives. And, instead of running away, more details about the bravery of the event staff who ran affter the attacker, including a Maintenance Man called andy. When the knife goes through his chest and, you know, kill or open the door is the choice, he pauses for a moment. And he is reluctant to spill all this out onto the pavement, when members of the public are going to be facing the same problems, but he makes exactly the right choice. The doors opened, out the terrorist falls. Like jack merritt, saskia jones was trying to play her part in improving peoples lives. She was a lovely, lovely woman. She made me laugh. She called me on things lots of people are quite scared of me. She wasnt. She was fearless. She was a warrior. She was going to change the world. Maybe she will. But their mourning is done at an intensely political time. The politicians have come to pay their respects, but Jack Merritts father has been clear he does not want his sons death to be politicised. He doesnt want this to mean politicians bringing in tougher sentencing. Tonight, Jack Merritts father wrote his son would, if he could comment on his death, be seething that it was being used to perpetuate an agenda of hate. Feel his passion, he said. Never give up his fight. Lucy manning, bbc news. Government ministers and diplomats from around the world are meeting in madrid for a two week summit, cop 25, on how to tackle Climate Change. Small island states are among the most vulnerable to rising sea levels, and leaders of some of the worst affected countries have appealed for help. From madrid, our science editor david shukman. Driving rain and powerful winds as the latest typhoon approaches the philippines. With plenty of early warning, families are helped to safety. Its the poorest that are least able to cope, and as Global Temperatures rise, it is likely storms will become even more dangerous in future. The people of the bahamas experienced that for themselves earlier this year. Hurricane dorian caused death and devastation on an unimaginable scale. And developing countries say that, because its the richest nations that caused Climate Change, they should now help. It gives me great pleasure to declare open this 25th session. So here in madrid, as the annual un talks on Climate Change get under way, one of the loudest demands is from the countries most vulnerable to those bigger storms. We worry about our livelihoods. We worry about the future generations. We worry about our country. We exist as people. We in the small islands, we exist as people. We have our cultures, we have our families, we have our livelihoods, and we face extinction. You cant get away from that. And its not a nice thought, its scary. All the time, the gases that are heating up the atmosphere are still being pumped out, and in ever greater quantities, increasing the risks of damaging impacts, and despite all the scientific warnings that this should stop. There has been frantic diplomacy on Climate Change over the past quarter of a century, with huge gatherings like this one, but the source of the problem remains unchecked. All the more reason, the head of the un tells me, to help those most in danger. Because, whether people like to admit it or not, Climate Change is already a problem today, and we are having terrible impact in drought, in floods, in other kinds of natural in hurricanes, in countries that are already suffering enormously. The whole issue of how much help to provide and who is to blame for the rise in temperatures has become incredibly contentious among the different teams here, and it wont be easy to settle. And another reminder of whats at stake as the negotiations begin severe flooding in kenya in the last few days, amid the fear that, without the right global response, there will be much worse to come. David shukman, bbc news in madrid. In syria, at least 30 civilians are reported to have been killed after two separate attacks in the north of the country.

They say its a fight to the death. David panuelo is president of the federated states of micronesia. Mark what effects are you seeing right now for Climate Change and how bad you are expected to get . First of all, thank you for having me on bbc four. Were having a very downpour of rain that did downpour of rain so dont mind me, i am a bit wet. Micronesia is the second ranked, heavily paused in the world so ranked, heavily paused in the world so Climate Change is very important issue that we can continue to tackle and tackling Climate Change requires global mo global mobilisation greater than world war ii as far as were concerned. A fight to the death, some of your colleagues are calling it. What hope do you have, what realistic hope so you think you have, of something from the richer nations that will really make a difference . Well, you know, this fight is a fight we are dealing with ona fight is a fight we are dealing with on a real basis. We take Climate Change very seriously it is the defining year before 2020 and many nations must submit their Climate Action and among nearly elements is the financing of climate worldwide and this is what we are asking because we have a very low, near neil, footprint, in terms of our, we dont have any. And that is why we are demanding bigger countries like the United States and china to come on board and be the champions in fighting Climate Change. And of course, the argument is, the small countries, the low lying countries, are the least able to cope and the rich countries who by and large may be in the first place to change the client climate, they should make contributions. But realistically, what chance do you see of the bigger countries are stepping to the plate here . My view on it is that we have no choice. Wejust here . My view on it is that we have no choice. We just dont have any choice in terms of Climate Change because as i have said, every country will be affected. We have 600, seven ill 700 islands in the ocean, about 1 600, seven ill 700 islands in the ocean, about1 million square miles of ocean, and most of our islands are low lying and we are doing so much in terms of building the profile of our countries and in oui the profile of our countries and in our congress of micronesia we have established a new committee that deals with Climate Change. The Pacific Islanders gathered recently a couple of months ago and we adopted the declaration for urgent Climate Action now. We took it to the United Nations where the secretary general of the un Antonio Guterres called for a Climate Action summitand we guterres called for a Climate Action summit and we called for the world to come on board because we have no choice. Places like the coastal areas of florida and california, they are as low as us so it is a global existence of threat and if we dont come on board, the world will be sorry when we know that action, you know, not taking action would be a calamity, as far as we are concerned so there is no turn time. The clock is ticking and as far as we time. The clock is ticking and as faras we are time. The clock is ticking and as far as we are concerned, we are reducing emissions by 40 by 2030, it isa reducing emissions by 40 by 2030, it is a critical or the Global Community to take action on this, reducing the Carbon Footprint 20 omissions by the mid century it is a very critical one we are calling on nations to do their part because we area nations to do their part because we are a Global Community and the world is very small. I dont know about other countries but time is ticking andi other countries but time is ticking and i think it would be a serious mistake that would be more costly than the Second World War because of the extinction of species, threat to food security. Our countries are experiencing Climate Change in the way of sea level rise. Some of our islands with the food source and inundation of the smaller islands threaten our stability of the food source and therefore our livelihood so source and therefore our livelihood so this is a very serious matter that we take and i call on the world that we take and i call on the world that bigger countries like the United States, china, india, and the rest of the world, to come to. We have a strong solidarity and we are calling on the world to take action 110w. Calling on the world to take action now. Mr president , thank you so much for talking to us. Thank you for having me on bbc and we wish you all and the rest of the world the best in our collective efforts to fight Climate Change immediately. Are you so Climate Change immediately. Are you so much for having me. Typhoon kammuri has made landfall i
