More trouble is likely. Mark lobel, bbc news. More than 1000 migrants have landed on the italian island of lampedusa in the space of a few hours on sunday, and more arrivals are expected. More boats were spotted off the coast of nearby malta, with Charity Alarm phone saying they needed assistance. Sara monetta reports. Clear skies and calm waters. With the weather improving, the number of migrants leaving libya to reach europe has soared. Here in lampedusa, italys closest point to africa, ia boats have arrived over the weekend. The tiny Sicilian Island now hosts over 1,400 people in its Reception Centre and more are currently out at sea. In the control room of this ngo ship, monitors flare up when a boat in distress is identified. The alarm from the hotline was alerted to five boats in distress, all within the maltese search and rescue zone, and they carry over 400 people. On these five boats in distress, there are men, women, children, minors, and they are all trying to escape from libya, and we heard that one of these boats has safely reached lampedusa but, to our knowledge, four of these boats are still in distress in the Central Mediterranean sea. More rescued migrants arrive every day. A Growing Number are minors, often travelling on their own. This group was intercepted last week dozens of them crammed on a Rubber Dinghy with no life vests on board. Since the start of 2021, almost 11,000 people have reached italy thats over double the arrivals from the same time last year and with summer approaching, this is only set to get worse. Sara monetta, bbc news. Lets get some of the days other news. The Us Government has declared a State Of Emergency after the countrys largest Fuel Pipeline was hit by a cyber attack. Reports suggest the Group Responsible is demanding ransom money to restore services. The Emergency Status will allow fuel to be transported by road instead. The Taliban In Afghanistan have announced a 3 day ceasefire this week to mark the muslim festival of eid. This follows saturdays multiple Explosions Outside A School In Kabul in which more than 50 people, mostly schoolgirls, were killed. The Annual Hajj Pilgrimage To Mecca is to go ahead this year, but under special conditions to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. The ministry of hajj in saudi arabia said the details and conditions would be made public at a later date. A gunman shot dead six people and then himself at a Birthday Party in colorado springs. The shootings took place at a Mobile Home Park where families had gathered in one trailer to celebrate. The identities of the victims and the attacker have not yet been released. The leader of britains opposition, sir keir starmer has reshuffled his Shadow Cabinet after the labour partys disappointing performance in last weeks elections. A russian doctor who treated the opposition activist Alexei Navalny after he nearly died on a domestic flight last year has been reported missing on a hunting trip. Police said Alexander Murakhovsky had not reported in from a Siberian Forest since friday. Two other doctors at the hospital where mr navalny was treated have since died prematurely. Brian whitmore, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council and an expert on russian affairs, explained why this latest news made him suspicious. Im not sure what to make it just yet but, as you noted, there are two other doctors from that hospital Sergei Maksimishin and Rustam Agishev who both have died prematurely. Dr maksimishin did treat mr navalny, the other doctor apparently did not. All we know right now is that Alexander Murakhovsky left a Hunting Lodge in an atv, an all terrain vehicle, friday, heading towards a forest, and has not been seen since. Now, he was known in the period after navalny� s poisoning in august of last year for giving a lot of false statements to the media. He said that he had diagnosed navalny as having a metabolic disorder, which caused a sharp drop in his blood sugar. He also delayed mr navalny� s transport to berlin for treatment where we, of course, have since learned that mr navalny was, in fact, poisoned with the nerve agent, novichok. So this im suspicious because the putin regime has never given me any reason not to be suspicious of it, but we should stress we dont we really dont know anything right now. We dont know where dr murakhovsky is, we dont know the circumstances of his disappearance, but we have cause to be suspicious. German sex workers have told the bbc that a countrywide ban on the industry is putting them in danger. Sex work is usually legal and largely regulated in germany, but the government has closed brothels as part of Coronavirus Restrictions. As our berlin correspondent jenny hill reports, many workers say they have no choice but to flout the ban. Speaks german. I have been here for 23 years. I love myjob. I love myjob. Yanas out of work.

Thousands of protesters across france have marched against the countrys new climate bill, which is going through parliament. The demonstrator� s say the bill isnt ambitious enough in tackling climate change. Azadeh moshiri reports. Chanting zero out of ten, that is how many points these protesters give frances new climate bill. Thousands demonstrated across the country to demand more action to combat climate change. According to them, the bill currently going through Frances Parliament has been watered down and for them there is only one man to blame. Translation its clear. That macron has not been our Green President really. Although i think he is not completely unconscious of what is at stake, he continues to feed a system which puts profits above all and which goes against the interests of our planet. But on the same day as the protests, president Emmanuel Macron named climate one of his Top Priorities at a future of europe conference. Translation how do we make our europe the leader of Emission Reductions . My hope that we will achieve Carbon Neutrality even more quickly. He says france is committed to cutting Greenhouse Emissions by 40 by 2030, compared to levels in 1990. So the bill hes championing proposes various measures, like banning domestic flights under 2. 5 hours that can be done by train, prohibiting open air terrace heaters and preventing future airport expansions. For the protesters, the bill doesnt go far enough and contains few of the suggestions that come out of the public consultation, like investing in an ambitious railway plan. In a year, the president will have to win over voters once again, and with frances green party having made gains in the last local elections, these protests are ones Emmanuel Macron simply cant ignore. Azadeh moshiri, bbc news. Time for all the sport now. Hello im marc edwards, i hope you had a good weekend. Looks like the la liga title race will continue to go down to the wire.

Hamilton came back thanks to fresher tyres from a second pit stop, taking the lead with six laps left and going on to claim the 98th win of his career. Red bull obviously had a great start and after that just hunting. And i was so close for so long and i didnt think in doing that i was going to be able to make it but ijust managed to keep the tires in somehow and it is a long way to come back from 20 odd seconds it was a good gamble.

A Rescue Operation has taken place to free a small whale that became stranded in the river thames at Richmond Lock in south west london. It took fire crews and divers nearly four hours to float the whale, which is believed to be a minke and move it to a safe location. Matt graveling reports. Trying to turn the tide. As the thames receives, it leaves behind a baby minke whale, grounded in Richmond Lock. First responders hosed water over its weak body. Hours earlier, the whale had first been spotted a few miles up the river, near barnes bridge. But by 5pm it was stuck in richmond, sparking a big Emergency Response and an even bigger crowd. I Emergency Response and an even bigger crlivid Emergency Response and an even bigger crowd bigger crowd. I dont rate its chances too chances too much.

Hugging is likely to be officially allowed in england again when the British Government makes an announcement on the next stage of lockdown easing. The changes on Household Mixing will be most significant since the rules were introduced in england last year. But the government is urging people to use � common sense and keep close contact limited. Heres our science editor david shukman. Remember this, the comfort of a hug . Well, for more than a year, weve been warned against it because of the risks of transmitting the virus. But now, with fewer infections and many more people vaccinated, it seems to be the moment for a cautious return. Weve seen an absolutely extraordinary success of both the Vaccine Programme and also the suppression of cases as a result of this very prolonged lockdown weve had, the Vaccine Programme and also the suppression of cases as a result of this very prolonged lockdown weve had, and so i think it is time based on the very careful modelling thats been done to start relaxing some of those restrictions. So will people rush to hug again or might they hold back . In newcastle this afternoon, we found a range of views. Its brilliant. Yeah, really looking forward to that. Couldnt help but wanting to hug my friends here at the table. Ive never been a big hugger myself. People know that about me, so i think it wont change much. I will be cautious, but i really am looking forward to hugging the parents i and the in laws and stuff that we havent done for a long time. I they need it as well, so, yeah, itll be really nice. The Prime Minister is reported as saying that we need to use our common sense when it comes to hugging, so what exactly does that mean . Well, an infected person can release the virus through their breath, so heres the scientific advice limit the number of people you hug just those who mean most to you, not everyone you meet keep it short thatll reduce the chances of the virus being passed on and try to avoid being directly face to face. In any event, Scientists Say a lot depends on exactly who it is youre hugging. If youre a grandparent hugging a grandchild, and the grandparents are fully vaccinated, thats probably quite a low risk activity most of the time. But it would worry me if we were advocating we can hug all of our friends every time we meet them again, because i think thats going to perpetuate an awful lot of additional close contact that could still spread the virus. The pandemic has meant new ways of behaving elbow bumps, for example. But while life in the uk is now set to become a bit more normal, its far too early for that in much of the rest of the world. David shukman, bbc news. Whoever thought we would be in a place where we would have to give out guidelines on safeway � s two hug. It is all on our website. Including more information on what we touched on earlier, that being the news that one of the, well, the biggest Fuel Pipeline in the United States has been the target of a cyber attack. The Colonial Pipeline carries two and a half million gallons a day so it is totally not off line at the moment by a criminal gang. This happened on friday and the authorities are still working to restore the services. An Emergency Status has been declared and this allows fuel to be transported by road. It has impacted the price of oil on financial markets. 0iland price of oil on financial markets. Oil and gas prices are higher which was expected so we will be looking at this in detail when our in our business coverage. I will be getting analysis on what impact this could have the longer it takes to restore the pipeline. And also this threat of Cyber Attacks on such strategic parts of an economy such as the worlds biggest when it comes to getting fuel to parts of the United States. All that is to come. Also, of course, a lot of detail on travel. We are going to look at the reopening of International Travel for british tourists where you can go and what the restrictions are going forward. All that to come in a moment. I will see you soon. Hello. On sunday, the uk recorded its highest temperatures since the end of march, 22. 5 celsius in suffolk. Now, nothing that high in the week ahead. Temperatures will be close to average for the time of year, and for monday, it is a mixture of sunshine and showers. In fact, that pretty much covers it for much of the week ahead, because for much of the week ahead, low pressure will be close by the uk, the source of these showers, and at least for monday, some brisk winds as well, especially in england and wales. And after a cloudy, breezy, showery night, well, this is where temperatures are to start the day. No frost out there. In fact, some spots just around 10 12 degrees celsius. Were not expecting any frost in the week ahead. There mayjust be a bit of Rain Skirting Parts of Eastern England to begin with. That moves off and may well head towards the Northern Isles of scotland later in the day. Some of that could be heavy and thundery. Whereas elsewhere, its sunshine, these showers moving west to east, some heavy and thundery, a risk of hail. And it will be quite blustery, particularly in england and wales. These are average wind speeds. Therell be higher gusts around 40 115 mph or so. And temperatures generally in the range of around 13 17 degrees celsius. Now, quite a bit of sunshine to end the day as many of the showers will fade away. As ever, some places will avoid the showers. You may get one, just a brief wet moment in an otherwise dry day. And england and wales will be mainly dry on monday night, but a batch of showers will move out of Northern Ireland and into parts of scotland. And these are tuesday mornings temperatures. Again no frost out there. Low pressure still very much close by as we go into tuesday, and from that, were going to see some further showers. Now, maybe notjust popping up, but tending to move through in a zone that will travel from south west to north east during the day. And a Weather Front close to North West Scotland will bring cloud and some outbreaks of rain. Some places may well miss the showers as the system moves its way in. Similar sorts of temperatures on tuesday. And for wednesday and thursday, sunshine and showers. Its not going to be as breezy. And then by friday, it becomes mainly dry with a fair amount of cloud out there. And with the air coming down from the north east, it will turn a bit cooler, but not particularly cold, mind you. So, thats how the week is shaping up. It is sunshine, showers some of those are going to be quite heavy and not as cold as it was last week, and mainly frost free. I dont know whether were done with frost at the moment, but its certainly not around this week. Hello again. This is bbc news with the latest Business Headlines for viewers in the uk and Around The World. The United States braces itself for a Fuel Shortage after its biggest oil pipeline is hit by a cyber attack. The Travel Industry reacts with disappointment to the uk governments green list for overseas travel, claiming the update is overly cautious.
