Already or weaken belaruss government. Already airlines have started to avoid belaruss airports and airspace, deciding detours are worth delays. Jean mckenzie, bbc news. Well, this evening, Eu Leaders are meeting in brussels to discuss what action they will take. They are still talking and they are discussing what action they will take. What action they will take. European Commission President , Ursula Von Der leyen, spoke to the media, saying that the eu is going to place on hold a Three Billion Euro Investment and economic package which was Ready To Go but will now be frozen until there is democracy in belarus. And she explained that other measures are up for discussion as well. Tonight we will discuss options, different options of sanctions. Sanctions against individuals that are involved in this hijacking but also sanctions against business and economic entities that are financing these regimes. And were looking into sanctions against the Aviation Sector in belarus. Roman has to be released immediately. And we will put pressure on the regime as long as it finally respects the freedom of media and the Freedom Of Press and the freedom of opinion. And the White House too is talking about the incident in the strongest terms. This was a shocking act. Diverting a flight between two Eu Member states for the purpose of arresting a journalist. It constitutes a brazen affront in international peace and we demand an immediate, international, transparent and credible investigation of this incident. We are in touch with a range of partners bilaterally and through multilateral channels from nato, the eu, un and others was up and we have nothing to read out at this point but we will continue to co ordinate closely with them. Nigel Gould Davies is a former british ambassador to belarus. Nigel is editor at the strategic survey, and a Senior Fellow for Russia And Eurasia at the international institute for strategic studies. Thank you forjoining us here on bbc news, ambassador. First question, what is your reading of what has taken place in the narrative we have also been hearing coming out of belarus . ~. , also been hearing coming out of belarus . ~. ,. ,. , , also been hearing coming out of belarus . ,. ,. , also been hearing coming out of belarus . ~. ,. ,. , ,. , belarus . What has happened of course is shockin belarus . What has happened of course is shocking and belarus . What has happened of course is shocking and unprecedented belarus . What has happened of course is shocking and unprecedented and belarus . What has happened of course is shocking and unprecedented and it l is shocking and unprecedented and it is shocking and unprecedented and it is right there has been an immediate international condemnation of it. I think it tells us A Number of things. The first is that lukashenko, who has long been a threat to his own people, has now become an international threat, someone who is prepared in order to stay in power to carry out actions which jeopardise large numbers of non belarusian citizens. So he has escalated the threat he presents and that requires a corresponding escalation of the response. The second is that in an interesting way it shows how insecure he himself still feels, even though the mobilisation that we saw in the Belarussian Streets a few months ago has now been quelled and suppressed by force and depression. Lukashenko is not fully back in control, it does not feel that he is. If he has to go to such extraordinary lengths to go to such extraordinary lengths to try to detain a single, Young Internetjournalist to try to detain a single, young Internet Journalist and to try to detain a single, Young Internetjournalist and blogger, Internet Journalist and blogger, that internetjournalist and blogger, that suggests what a threat free information is still to his rule. [30 information is still to his rule. Do ou information is still to his rule. Do you think he has underestimated the international outrage . It is quite a risk that he has instigated this international incident, as you have described it, for one man. Just how much of a threat was roman to lukashenko . He much of a threat was roman to lukashenko . Lukashenko . He was a young, talented. Lukashenko . He was a young, talented, very lukashenko . He was a young, talented, very capable lukashenko . He was a young, | talented, very capable Internet Journalist who played a crucial role in bringing to light the extent of the oppression in belarus after the fixed election last august and in helping to organise some of the demonstrations, although he himself was based outside the country. On the matter of lukashenkos the matter of lu kashenkos calculation, the matter of lukashenkos calculation, he has a long history, unfortunately, of making eccentric, dangerous and irrational decisions. He probably did not think very much about the international reaction. He has derided eu responses to past actions he has taken. And also the belarussian official sources themselves are making it absolutely clear, with some pride, that it was his personal decision, directive, to send up the Mig 29 fighter. This was not a standard Operating Procedure working on autopilot, it was a specific order to send up something that could potentially have shot down a civilian airliner. What down a civilian airliner. What should this down a civilian airliner. What should this cost down a civilian airliner. What should this cost him . Down a civilian airliner. What should this cost him . There| down a civilian airliner. What should this cost him . There have been used lines coming out of the Eu Meeting currently taking place. We have also had discussions here in the uk in london. We have heard about interpol, aviation sanctions, will they really hurt . Will they really hurt . Yes, i think the first thing will they really hurt . Yes, i think the first thing to will they really hurt . Yes, i think the first thing to recognise will they really hurt . Yes, i think the first thing to recognise is will they really hurt . Yes, i think| the first thing to recognise is that since this represents an escalation of lukashenkos own behaviour, the sanctions that are now imposed have to be significantly more serious than those before. The sanctions on belarus are for the most part individual sanctions, belarus are for the most part individualsanctions, in belarus are for the most part individual sanctions, in particular persons in the regime. Now i think the eu with other international partners need to start thinking about a more concerted strategy of tackling the regime. That means going after the financial flows that help to sustain it. There are other symbolic measures that are being taken. Airlines are now not landing in minsk at all and they are going over and around Belarussian Over and around bela russian territory. Over and around belarussian territory. Those things over time psychologically and financially impose pressures on the regime. Lukashenko himself will not change, his determination is to stay in what may. But even he does not govern entirely on his own and there are elites who are around him who will be concerned and ashamed by what has happened. 0vertime be concerned and ashamed by what has happened. Over time sanctions can make a real difference to the calculations that they make. There is not a magic bullet, they never are, but they should be part of a sustained response to this activity. But they will not be cast adrift because everybody is looking to russia. The relationship may not be the best, but they are allies. President Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin are meeting in switzerland in two weeks time. Is this likely to be included within their discussions . Everybody is looking to President Putin and how this reflects on russia. Why is this important . Reflects on russia. Why is this Im Ortant . , reflects on russia. Why is this imortant . ,. , important . Putin and lukashenko are locked in a toxic important . Putin and lukashenko are locked in a toxic embrace. Important . Putin and lukashenko are locked in a toxic embrace. Neither i locked in a toxic embrace. Neither lacks the other, but in a sense they both need each other. But it is not a stable relationship. I will say this, more about this incident will emerge in the coming days and weeks. It is worth at least raising the question at this point whether russia also played a part in this. It is now that the russian Security Service has a history of cooperation with its belarussian counterpart, the kgb, as it is still called. If it were to be the case that evidence emerged of russian complicity in theirs, and i emphasise it is not established yet, but it is something to look at, that would have serious consequences for the summit. Thank ou consequences for the summit. Thank you very much consequences for the summit. Thank you very much for consequences for the summit. Thank you very much for your consequences for the summit. Thank you very much for your time.

And max moseley, the man credited with imporving Driver Safety in formula one has died at the age of 81. He ran the sports Governing Body the fia for 16 years, serving as president and oversaw several Safety Reforms following the death of Ayrton Senna in 1994. He raced in his youth, founded a Car Maunfacturing company before moving into formula one. Former chief Executive Bernie Eccelstone said it was like losing a brother. That is all the sport for now. We are sticking with the story that gavin has ended on and look further into the story of Max Mosley shortly. Stay with us for that. Before, lets take you through the latest coronavirus figures coming from the government, which show 2439 new infections and three deaths have been recorded in the latest 24 hour period. Cases have been rising slowly over the past few weeks and the number of people who have now died is 127,724. In the Vaccine Role at 126,357 people have received a first vaccine in the last 24 hours. In total just first vaccine in the last 24 hours. In totaljust over 38 Million people have now had their firstjab. That is just over 72 of the adult population. 252,139 people have had their second dose in the past 24 hours. It takes the overall number in that group to almost 23 Million people, orjust over 43 of the aduu people, orjust over 43 of the adult population. The former head of formula 0nes Governing Body, Max Mosley, who went on to become a Privacy Campaigner, has died aged 81. Son of the british Fascist Leader 0swald mosley, he hit the headlines outside his Racing Career when the News Of The World wrongly published a story alleging he had taken part in a nazi themed orgy. Mr mosley won £60,000 in damages for Libel And Invasion of privacy and went on to campaign vigorously for tighter press regulation. Our Home Editor Mark easton looks back at his life. Max mosley was many things. A Racing Driver who went on to run motorsport, a barrister who helped change britains laws on privacy and a suave Family Man with a secret double life. He was the son of 0swald mosley, leader of the british union of fascists, and his mother, lady diana, described by one newspaper is an unrepentant nazi. All my life, ive had hanging over me my antecedents, my parents, Max Mosley once said. He went into Motor Racing, a world where people didnt care about his parental background. He briefly competed as a driver before concluding he wasnt quick enough and, instead, helped start the Car Manufacturer March engineering and became a representative on the formula one constructors association. His abilities and charm made him an effective advocate and, in the 1990s, he became head of the fia, the body representing the interests of motorsport. It was a role he held for 16 years. Today, former formula one Boss Bernie Ecclestone said, its like losing family, like losing a brother. He did a lot of good things, he was very good in making sure people built cars that were safe. In 2008, while still head of the fia, the news of the World Newspaper splashed a story claiming mosley had been involved in a Sex Act involving five women, one of whom was wearing a military uniform. Although his Wife And Family knew nothing of his penchant for sadomasochism, mosley was unashamed and took the paper to court for breach of privacy, and won. Ive been doing this for 45 years and there had never been a hint, nobody knew. Mosley then took the Uk Government to the European Court of human rights, arguing newspapers should warn people before exposing their private lives. He lost, but the Case Led him to use some of his considerable Family Fortune to support victims of the Fleet Street Phone hacking scandal. Max mosley is effectively the author of modern privacy law. His case, which he brought against the News Of The World, and his subsequent supporting of hacked off will be seen, i think, in the future as a golden thread that actually led to where we are with privacy today. Max mosley had the money and the attributes to change things. He flirted with politics, working with the conservatives in the � 80s and later supporting Labour Politicians like tom watson, with a donation of £500,000. But he will probably be remembered for his defence of his colourful sex life. Their nazi lie was completely invented. Its a perfectly harmless activity, he said, provided its between Consenting Adults who want to do it, are of Sound Mind and its in private. Max mosley who has died at the age of 81.

Max mosley was getting Phone Calls from World Leaders questioning safety because Ayrton Sennas profile was so large, he was almost godlike in brazil. He recognised there was an existential threat to motorsport and wanted to do something about it, so he decided to make Safety Central for spectators and drivers and he started a campaign that has continued to this day, with two other leaders at his side and Bernie Ecclestone being one and Charlie Whiting who died a couple of years ago, the Formula 1 director. They changed the face of motorsport. At the same time the presidency has a role in campaigning for Motor Cars as well and he was central to the European Union adopting a scheme which introduced mandatory Crash Testing for Road Cars which has probably saved thousands of lives on the roads. ~. ,. , ,. , the roads.

But he was also a divisive and authoritarian figure and he had a streak of malice in him and he took out personal vendettas on people and tried to destroy a couple of people. He was very unsettling in many ways. One person i know talked about walking into his office at one point when he was upset and found him pacing back and forth and chanting at the ceiling in latin. That was a slightly unnerving situation to find yourself in.

Lancashire police say a Gas Explosion that killed a toddler was caused by a Gas Pipe which had been cut inside a neighbouring property. Two year old George Hinds died in the blast in heysham just over a week ago. His parents and two others were also injured. Officers say theyre now treating it as a criminal investigation. The Bbc Board has announced a review of the Corporations Editorial and whistleblowing policies, following the Dyson Report into its 1995 interview with diana, princess of wales. The chairman, richard sharp, says the board will look at the culture of the bbc to assess the effectiveness of policies and practice. He also confirmed there will be an investigation into why the journalist involved, martin bashir, was rehired in 2016. Eight people have been arrested on suspicion of fraud, in a series of Dawn Raids targeting Scam Text messages. The Scam Messages ask people to pay a fee to retrieve a royal Mail Parcel before stealing the victims personal and bank details. Officers from the dedicated Card And Payment crime unit, a City Of London and Metropolitan Police unit, carried out warrants in london, coventry, Birmingham And Colchester in a week of action. Dogs could become one way of trying to prevent the spread of covid because researchers have found that some breeds can be trained to smell the virus on humans with as much as 94 accuracy even when the person has no symptoms. 0ur Health Correspondent Dominic Hughes explains. This is talla. In less than five seconds, he has correctly identified a small, Unwashed Fragment of sock that has been donated by someone who had covid 19. And this is asher, who doesnt take that much longer. All these dogs have been specially trained to identify what researchers have found to be covids distinctive odour. The dogs were able to be trained, you can hear one barking in the background there. The dogs were able to be trained really quickly on this odour, and were able to distinguish people who were infected from those who were uninfected. So the best dog was able to detect somebody correctly that had covid, 94 of the time, which is really, really high and very exciting. Research has already moved on to testing whether the dogs can identify the person wearing a T Shirt that belonged to someone who had covid. Watch how this dog immediately finds the right person. Even as people file past, there is no fooling these dogs, with their incredible sense of smell. Which dog have we got with you today . This is talla. A dog like talla here would have 350 Million sense receptors dedicated to olfaction. Us humans have got 5 million, so that gives you a comparison. Talla can detect odours that are diluted down to parts per trillion. It doesnt mean much to us, but actually a part per trillion, if you could smell a teaspoon of sugar in a cup of tea, talla could smell the same in the equivalent of water of two olympic size swimming pools. Quite phenomenal, and that is why they are so good at this. Dogs are already used at airports to detect explosives or drugs. It is still very early days, but with their ability to quickly and unobtrusively screen people, medical dogs could also play an important role in keeping a post covid world moving.

In the last few minutes of video has been posted online showing what appears to be a clip of the journalist who was detained last night when a ryan Air Plane was forced to land in minsk. The bbc has so far been unable to verify the video but what it does appear to show is the journalist himself and ended him saying he is in good health and during the statement he says apparently acknowledging that he did play a role in organising mass protests in minsk last year. The video has been appearing on several channels of the telegram messaging app. As you can see hes wearing a Dark Sweatshirt and bared with his hands tightly clasped in front of him.

A � buddying system for people needing mental Health Support as a result of the pandemic is among several ideas being trialled to encourage people to get tested for covid, and follow the rules about Self Isolation. £12 million ounds is being spent Pilot Schemes in nine areas of england which have high Infection Rates. The government has acknowledged that some people find Self Isolation challenging. 0ur Health Correspondent Anna Collinson has more. If you come into close contact with someone who has tested positive for coronavirus, you may receive this a message from Test And Trace saying you must self isolate for ten days. But for many who are concerned about Money Or Cant work from home, it is just not that simple. Now the government is piloting more ways to support people. Nine areas with high Infection Rates in england will receive a share of nearly £12 million, including parts of london, the north west, yorkshire, peterborough and somerset. They will trial increased social Care Support for vulnerable adults, Translation Assistance for non English Speakers and alternative accommodation will be offered to those isolating in overcrowded homes. But some economists warn this will only go so far unless statutory sick pay is increased. If you dont tackle the financial support that is missing, youll end up with really poor compliance with isolation, which of course risks everyones health and the economy. These pilots come as Surge Testing is being rolled out in parts of london following a rise in coronavirus cases linked to the variant first detected in india. As people enjoy their new freedoms, it is hoped these steps will encourage more people to get tested and self isolate if required. This is an uncertain time, that when we hear information around the indian variant and the fact that its sporadically increasing in areas, naturally that does make some people very worried. We just have to go back to what we know about viruses, which is always that the way to control a virus is to make sure that we are washing our hands, that we are wearing a mask to stop those droplets from going out. There are also renewed calls for people to take up their second jab after a study found that both the Pfizer And Astrazeneca vaccines are highly effective against the indian variant after two doses. While this variant may be more transmissible, scientists say well have to wait a bit longer before we know whether it could cause a rise in hospital admissions. If the current generation of vaccines are able to stop people going into hospital, whilst there is still mild infections, people are still getting the common cold with the virus, then the pandemic is over because we can live with the virus. In fact, we are going to have to live with the virus, one way or another. The government says it is increasingly confident the final stage of Easing Restrictions in england will happen in three weeks time, but it warns much relies on the data and our behaviour.

Taught that some have let their pupils down, allowed a culture of sexual Abuse And Harassment to go unchecked, unpunished. Students no longer silent, this just one story of many. Rosie, not her real name, claims she was raped by another pupil at a Party Outside School aged 14. This isnt her real voice. I definitely feel like i was being blamed. I feel very much like it was, you are making an issue out of nothing. She and her mum, who we are calling rachel, claim the school isolated rosie instead of the boy. She was very traumatised and it just really resulted in her being hidden away. This became too much because, unfortunately, the perpetrator was still wandering about the school. Rosie ended up temporarily leaving. A lot of the impact its had on me is how much education ive actually missed. And what is your message to schools, having had your experience . There literally is no point having a Metoo Campaign if what we are going to do with young girls is teach them all the exact opposite.

Launched two months ago, the Nspcc Helpline has received about 350 calls about abuse in schools and referred 65 cases to the police or childrens services.

It started with the campaign everyones invited. 16,000 testimonies now shared publicly. We are seeing much more testimonies from state schools, from all across the country, as well as universities and also a much diverse range of ages.

The italian Eurovision Winner who was accused of taking drugs during the Grand Final has returned a negative drugs test. A video emerged on Social Media after Saturday Nights contest which appeared to show Damiano David bending over a table backstage while on camera. Eurovision organisers have now concluded he did not take drugs. Foreign correspondent Anna Holligan explained a little earlier that organisers now want to draw a line under the incident the results are back. So just to remind you what happened on the night, television pictures shows Damiano David dip his head to the table for a few moments and there was speculation online and in the Press Room that he had been taking drugs. Afterwards he was asked about it in the press conference, and we were there he said i didnt take drugs, my band mate the guitarist thomas broke a glass and i was leaning down to clear it up. We just said the statements in the last 50 minutes from ebu, the organisers. They said following these allegations of Drug Use in the green room the broadcasters requested through the italian delegation a thorough review of the facts. So they studied all of the available footage, and a Drug Test was also voluntarily undertaken earlier today by the Lead Singer David has returned a negative result.
