Hello. The united states has condemned the forced diversion of a Passenger Plane carrying a dissident belarusian journalist. It follows a chorus of condemnation across europe after the Ryanair Plane flying from greece To Lithuania was forced to land in the belarus capital minsk. State media there said the Intervention was due to a bomb scare. The uk Foreign Secretary said the � outlandish actions� would have � serious implications�. The bbc� s diplomatic correspondent James Landale reports. This is not where Flight Fr4978 was supposed to be this afternoon, on the ground at minsk airport. The Ryanair Flight with about 170 people On Board left athens this morning bound for vilnius. Butjust before the aircraft entered lithuanian airspace, it suddenly headed east. According to ryanair, the crew were warned of a potential Security Threat and ordered to land at minsk. For good measure, a belarusian warplane armed to the teeth was dispatched to the aircraft in. But no bombs were found On Board. Instead, this man was taken off the plane and arrested. Roman protasevich is a well known belarusian Opposition Journalist and is wanted by the authorities for organising protests last year. According to the Belarus State News agency, the operation was ordered personally by the country� s authoritarian president alexander lukashenko, who has faced growing opposition since disputed elections last year. Belarus� s exiled Opposition Leader said mr protasevich� s life was in danger. Translation today, lukashenko personally caused an international scandal, using Military Aircraft against civilians in belarus and European Countries to arrest a single person. No one else is safe. Anyone can be in Roman Protasevich� s place. After several hours on the ground, the plane and remaining passengers were allowed to leave and arrived this evening in vilnius, as Outrage Spread across europe, with several countries accusing belarus of an active state terrorism. In a tweet, the Foreign Secretary Dominic Rav said secretary Dominic Raab said he was coordinating with allies and warned at vilnius airport, supporters of Roman Protasevich waited in vain for his arrival as they contemplated just how far president lukashenko will go to suppress opposition. Tomorrow, eu leaders will meet to discuss what price he should pay. James landale, Bbc News. Tom tugendhat is the chairman of the uk� s parliamentary select committee on foreign affairs. Here� s his assessment of the situation. This appears to be an act of Air Piracy conducted by Ia State a state, a European Union aircraft, flying between two European Union capitals, to nato capitals.

India has reported more than 8,800 cases of the Black Fungus in a growing epidemic of the disease. This is normally a rare infection with a high Mortality Rate of 50 . But in recent months, india Saw Thousands of cases affecting recovered and recovering covid 19 patients. Dr Priya Sampathkumar is the chair of Infection Prevention and control at the mayo clinic. She explains what the Black Fungus is. So, essentially, it refers to a type of Fungal Infection that happens very, very rarely, and affects primarily the lung and the sinuses. It is very uncommon in most parts of the western world because this fungus isn� t very prevalent. In warm humid climates, the fungus tends to be in the air, but even then, infections are very rare. Covid has created a perfect storm with inflammation from covid, the treatment from covid will be used to suppress the Immune System and allowed much of us to led to this really epidemic of the Black Fungus infections. When it involves the sinuses, you need to go in and surgically remove the dead tissue. That can usually be done to fairly minor procedures in the early stages. When it gets more extensive, then you need more extensive surgery. Then, in addition to the surgical treatment, you need antifungal agents, which are in very, very short supply currently in india. Very, very short supply currently in india. That sounds as if it needs currently in india. That sounds as if it needs experts currently in india. That sounds as if it needs Experts Surgicall as if it needs experts surgical information, and these things information, and these things in short supply in india, where they have a Health Crisis. Exactly. So, it� s a Health Crisis on top of another very, very significant Health Crisis. And some of the images we� ve seen from india, i mean, it is devastating.

It can go into the brain and downwards into the brain and downwards into the mouth. So, it� s really a very tissue destructive infection and that� s wipe treatment with surgery and the antifungals are of critical. Do Ou Antifungals are of critical. Do you think antifungals are of critical. Do you think theres an issue with you think there� s an issue with is not being recognised as well, that one of the reasons to talk about it is so that clinicians can recognise what� s happening .

Yes, so definitely, there has been a problem happening . Yes, so definitely, there has been a problem with | there has been a problem with recognition. Hospitals are so overwhelmed right now that patients often, after they get over the acute Covid Infection and no longer need oxygen, are dismissed home. And they are not able to get back in the hospitals when they have the symptoms of the Black Fungus infection, which can be very nonspecific. It starts off with facial pain, feeling like one side of your nose is blocked and sometimes double vision. And if they don� t seek medical attention early on, it can progress fairly quickly to become so destructive that it starts eating away the tissues of the base, the eyes, the brain and actually causes holes to happen in the roof of your mouth.

To the Democratic Republic Of Congo, where people have started to return to their homes after one of world� s most active volcanoes erupted on saturday night. Thousands of homes were destroyed and at least five people died in the rush to get away from the lava, which stopped just short of the city of goma. Here� s our Africa Correspondent Reha kansara. This is one of the world� s deadliest volcanoes. Mount nyiragongo erupted late saturday night, Setting Homes and roads on fire. The first warning came when a thick Orange Cloud illuminated the night sky. Locals fled in desperation. Some of them to neighbouring rwanda, others to a nearby town. Translation its something weve never seen before. We� re all together, shaken. Translation we watched the whole neighbourhood i go up in smoke. The fire came right down to here. Even now, we can still see lava. The last time nyiragongo erupted, its consequences were devastating. 250 people died and hundreds of thousands were left homeless. Aid agencies say early warning systems failed. When the Volcano Team monitoring people are not even aware of the behaviour of the volcano, this can affect the whole, the entire town. While we continue to feel the seismic activity, an eruption, a new eruption cannot be ruled out. Now the Orange Sky has turned a dreary grey and as people return home, at least five tremors have been felt in the aftermath. There have been reports of casualties but the full picture is yet to emerge. Reha kansara, Bbc News, in nairobi. While other parts of the world suffered lengthy lockdowns, for most of the past year, East Asia remained relatively unscathed by the virus. Now though, cases in the region are rising again, in spite of strict measures and tight border controls. Even places considered Success Stories like Singapore And Taiwan are returning to partial lockdowns. From singapore, Nick Marsh reports. This is now sharifa� s office. It� s also a classroom for her daughter, hazira. Just when everything seemed fine in singapore, highly infectious variants entered the country. The government says they� re spreading fast, with children being infected much more this time around. Now schools are shut, and the message is to stay at home. I really didn� t expect that the number of cases can increase like that and we again come back to square one here. What i� m looking for now is my family to be safe, to be at home, don� t always go out, and for myself, the opportunity right now to work from home. I already work from home, and for the children, i think it� s better for them to be at home. It� s almost certain that the variants came in through the airport. Cracks in the supposedly watertight Quarantine System saw some Airport Workers infected, then mixing with the general public. Now, dining in at Food Courts and restaurants is banned and you can only meet in groups of two. Here we are again, tightening up once more. And the question being asked by a lot of people here and in other parts of asia, is if this can happen even in a safe place like singapore, what hope is there of going back to normal life anytime soon . Having done so well against the virus until now, some places have pursued a zero covid approach. The experts say this is not realistic. Many countries did use their borders to effectively keep the virus out. Now, thats not sustainable. You cant keep locking down and doing Mass Testing forever. Eventually, you have to live with this virus. The hope is in the vaccine, obviously. Thats clearly the most important Tool Weve got to preventing serious infection. Singapore does look to be on course to vaccinate everyone by The End of the year, but most other countries in the region don� t have enough supplies. Taiwan and japan will probably have to wait until the middle of 2022. Poorer countries, for much longer than that. For them, the road to a post covid world will be a long one. Nick marsh, Bbc News, singapore. The Lead Singer of the italian glam Rock Band that won last night� s Eurovision Song Contest, will undergo a voluntary Drugs Test on monday.

Lewis will be here to bring you coverage from events taking place not only outside the court building, but also across the united states. Stay with us. Hello there. The Weather Charts are pointing towards something a little drier, more settled toward The End of the week at long last because it has been a very wet may for virtually all parts of the uk. But some areas have had nearly 300 of their average may rainfall. And this week is starting on an unsettled note. The rain moving through on sunday, and showers following for the day ahead. This is the area of low pressure that brought that intense rain and strong winds for a time. It has actually become stuck or slow moving across the north of scotland. That will be with us through monday. We can see clearing in Eastern Areas by dawn, but showers do follow, but under the Clearing Skies i think the morning could start on a chilly note, perhaps A Touch Of Frost in rural parts of Northern Ireland and a bright start. A little bit of mist around and that clears. And then sunshine prevails for a time but already the showers in the west are developing more widely, our rain circulating, our area of low pressure moving to the Northern Isles after a dry start here and after the fine start in Northern Ireland, chilly albeit, The Rain arrives in the afternoon. Now, the showers will end up being slow moving, some torrential downpour with hail and thunder, but the sunshine in between lifts the temperatures to 1a or 15. Those showers and thunderstorms continue to go through the evening, only easing slowly overnight, Tomorrow Night not as chilly and some respite potentially in western areas later but really we have bands of cloudy, showery weather for tuesday, heavy showers particularly in scotland and central and eastern england. We may have something a little wetter as well for the southwest on tuesday. In between, there may be fewer showers, but they will still be intense when they come along. Light winds, strong may sunshine, building some really big thunderstorms potentially with hail. Come wednesday, just the hint things are starting to settle down. We still have Weather Fronts around but they do look a little bit weaker. A few heavy showers following in behind, not certainly a dry picture but probably fewer of those intense downpours, and therefore temperatures will creep up 16, 17 in the sunshine. That� s because we have that little ridge of high Pressure Potentiallyjust keeping these Weather Fronts at bay, or even if they do come in later in the week, they� re likely to be weaker. That is, they will not give as much rainfall as we have seen of late in may. Just the signs things are starting to settle a little later in the week and perhaps a little warmer too by then.
