Hello, and welcome. President biden has arrived in geneva ahead of Tomorrows Summit with President Putin of russia. Relations between the two countries are at their lowest point in decades, and Mr Biden has already said he will lay down americas Red Lines during the discussions. Our Moscow Correspondent Steve Rosenberg reports. They say that the waters of Lake Geneva have the power to rejuvenate, to cure. But can a Lakeside Summit here revive a political relationship thats in very poor health . When Vice President Joe Biden met vladimir putin, he told him he had no soul. More recently, he said he was a killer. Mr putin Hit Back takes one to know one. So, when they sit down for talks, what message will the White House be putting across to the kremlin . Fiona hill was donald trumps Senior Adviser on russia. She says moscow must be told to behave. The biggest danger that the united states faces right now from russia is the coercive, subversive, Covert Action that is the hallmark of vladimir putin, be it ransomware for hire and cyber criminals, the constant hacking and releasing of e mails, assassination attempts, we can go down the list of dirty tricks. And we really need those to stop. But convincing the kremlin to change Direction Wont be easy. On the surface, at least, both president s are coming here to geneva to try to improve ties. Joe biden says he wants a relationship with russia which is stable and predictable. The problem is unpredictability is vladimir putins thing. Keeping the west guessing about his next move, thats what the Kremlin Leader is all about. And hes unlikely to give that up unless its on his terms. Arms control and strategic stability they may find some common ground here. But ifJoe Biden raises the issue of Human Rights in russia, expect the kremlin to Hit Back. America is not perceived in russia as a democracy and, of course, as a country being superior. I would not expect any great breakthroughs in the relationships, of course. But talking is better than not talking. And this is where theyll be talking, at this 18th century villa. As he arrives in geneva, Joe Biden knows it will be a difficult conversation. Dont expect one short summit to turn adversaries into allies. Steve rosenberg, bbc news, geneva. Well, our North America Editor Jon Sopel is covering the summit from geneva. He explained what outcome the american administration is looking for from the meeting. Success is not what the american side see this as being about. If you talk to the americans involved in building up for this discussion with vladimir putin, theyre talking about all the issues that are very difficult that Steve Sort of outlined in that report the cyber attacks, the ransomware, ukraine, Human Rights, the list goes On And on. And, you know, Joe Biden has christened this tour the America Is Back tour, but in a slightly smaller font size, it says, im not donald trump. And you can expect a very different approach towards vladimir putin from Joe Biden than we saw from donald trump, who was much more kind of accommodating towards the russian leader. And so, i think whats going to happen is youre not going to see a communique with deliverables, Diplo Speak for agreements and concrete actions that will be taken. Youre going to see a lot of Red Lines. If you continue to do this, then we will do that. The americans arentjust dampening expectations, theyre getting bucketfuls of ice cold Lake Water and pouring them all over those expectations. Hundreds of israeli nationalists are taking part in a Flag March through occupied eastjerusalem, which palestinians see as a provocation. They have staged an annual march through eastjerusalem, chanting, whistling and risking reigniting tensions with palestinians weeks after hundreds of people on both sides were killed in cross border fighting. In a surprise move, the centrist Yair Lapid has condemned the march. In a tweet, the Countrys Minister of foreign affairs said. These people were a disgrace to the nation of israel. Ourjerusalem correspondent Yolande Knell was at damascus gate, where the marchers gathered, but were blocked by police from passing into the old city. These ultranationalist israelis who are being allowed to come down towards damascus gate, its the main gate into the muslim quarter of the old city, theyre bringing there israeli flags. Theyre allowed to dance here. This is a celebration that they hold to remember the fact that the East Ofjerusalem was captured by israel back in the 1967 middle east war. Its always seen, this annual event, as being a provocation by the palestinians. But this year, it was originally scheduled to take place last month, and that was a time when Tensions Injerusalem are running extremely high. And thats when hamas fired its first Rockets Towardsjerusalem in years. It led to 11 days of deadly fighting. Now, the March Organisers asked for their procession to be reorganised as soon as a Cease Fire with gaza took hold. That is happening now. This turned into the first big test for israels new coalition government, a fragile coalition thats made up of left, centrist and far right parties who may be sympathetic to those here. They didnt want to look weak, particularly in front of hamas, which had said this could be the fuse that could cause an explosion. Lets get some of the days other news. More than 600,000 people have now died in the united states from the coronavirus pandemic. Monitored reliably by Thejohns Hopkins hospital, its the highest tally in The World, a position the country assumed soon after the virus spread across the globe. Hundreds of South Africans have descended on a field in a rural village in South East of the country to dig for diamonds. The rush comes after a Cattle Herder discovered what he thought were diamonds more than a week ago. The government is sending geologists to verify whether the stones uncovered are in fact diamonds. Scientists have warned that The World is on the verge of a climate change tipping point. The german team, who spent a year in the arctic, have reported increasing signs that Summer Ice may be disappearing. They say it would have a huge impact on the entire world. Here in the uk, an inquiry looking into the unsolved murder of a private investigator, Daniel Morgan, in 1987 has concluded that the failure to find the killer is the result of a Form Of Institutional Corruption within londons Metropolitan Police. The hard Hitting Report has been been welcomed by Daniel Morgans family, who say the Metropolitan Police commisioner, dame cressida dick, should consider her position. Tom symonds reports. There has never been a case like this. An unsolved murder in a car park, decades of police failures. The body of 37 year old i Daniel Morgan was found in sydenham in london. A family damaged for a generation. Now, the verdict. Not who did it, but why we dont know who did it. The panel concluded the failures of the Metropolitan Police went beyond a failure to solve this crime. We believe that concealing or denying failings for the sake of an organisations public image is dishonesty on the part of the organisation. This constitutes a Form Of Institutional Corruption. Daniel morgan was found dead in this car park. An axe in his head. He was a private investigator, just a small firm above a shop, but a firm, it turned out, linked to corrupt Police Officers. Its one Theyjust Cant solve. Four investigations and several crimewatch appeals produced at least 12 possible motives. The accusation was undermined because the accuser had a fraud conviction. Both men have strongly denied being involved and they were acquitted of related charges, but the panel says lines of inquiry were not properly followed up. This report is enormous and damning, and it details forms of corruption at all levels from the tolerance of poor investigations to Police Officers drinking with people on the limits of legality. But most of all, it says that the Metropolitan Police concealed or denied its failings. In short, that it was dishonest. The report finds in 2005 the met failed to identify failings in its own police work. They made a statement in 2011 on corruption but failed to say Police Officers may have been involved. And they delayed handing over documents in 2013 and made it difficult to get access to a police database. Cressida dick is personally accused of obstructing the panels work, should she consider her position . No, the commissioner oversaw that disclosure and the release of the database and some difficult material, all of that was seen over by the commissioner to the best of her ability. I have continued to take that approach with the panel. We cannot ignore the findings of this report. Its recommendations are wide ranging and far reaching across aspects of policing, conduct, Culture And Transparency in public institutions. Shes demanded a detailed response from the Metropolitan Police. For daniels brother, its the end of a 34 year battle. Its vindication, but. It is not like the wounds can heal in this environment, where youve got lies, incompetence, corruption, secrecy, dishonesty. Shiftiness. You know . Over the murder. The panel said the words institutional Corruption Werent just a description of something that happened in the past. Theyre about the present, too. Tom symonds, bbc news. Afghanistan is currently experiencing a devastating surge in coronavirus cases. 0fficial numbers are rising sharply, but the actual figure is likely much higher. Many people are dying at home because theyve been turned away from hospitals because theres no space. And in the parts of the country controlled by the taliban, accurate data is hard to come by. The bbc� s Yalda Hakim is in kabul and sent us this report. For a people who have long faced the threat of violent death from war, the Invisible Coronavirus adds a new terror to their lives. The escalating pace of new cases has threatened to overwhelm the countrys fragile health system, already weakened by decades of conflict. And with the americans withdrawing and the taliban on the offensive, afghans are facing this new battle increasingly on their own. Outside the afghan japan hospital, families are taking matters into their own hands, having to bring their own cylinders and provide vital oxygen to their loved ones. Tents have also been set up in front of the hospital for relatives. Theyre angry and feel abandoned. Translation our patient has been in a critical condition for four days now, and we want to admit him to the icu. When we go there, we can see there is an empty bed, but they say that it is booked for ministers� relatives. We have seen them turning away many patients, and theyve passed away at the gate here. Back inside, the intensive Care Unit is completely full. This doctor says every day up to 200 patients show up from across the country looking for treatment. Most of them are turned away. The hospital only has 120 beds. Translation you saw, people are dying. Were asking people to please be careful and adopt basic precautions. Wear masks, social distance. But sadly, they dont listen, and the result is this. The hospital is now overwhelmed. And so are its medics. Doctors and nurses desperately try to save this A2 Year old. He didnt make it, like so many others. We visited a nearby burial ground. This man has been a stonemason for 25 years. He says he has never been busier. Translation after this recent wave of corona, every day eight, ten or 12 bodies are coming in to be buried. These days almost every hilltop is turning into a graveyard. There are few countries in The World less equipped to deal with a pandemic on this scale. Afghans are now being killed by both the continuing War And Covid 19. Yalda hakim, bbc news, kabul.

Thats the verdict of a recent report, which found they were more likely than most workers to loose theirjob or face a drop in wages. Data in the report found that The Worlds 75 Million Domestic Workers have suffered significantly due to the pandemic. In fact, Job Losses among Domestic Workers ranged from 5 20 in most european countries. And in the americas, the situation was even worse, with losses amounting to 25 50 of workers. To put that in perspective, over the same period, Job Losses among other employees were less than 15 in most countries.

We saw a doubling of the average of cases. We usually have about 60 cases a month than last year it went up to about 120. And of those cases we have seen, they are very much similar to the issues highlighted in the report. We have seen an increase of the number of Domestic Workers who are being denied their rest days, who have not been allowed to leave the house for around six or seven months, who have been denied their wages and then also significant increase in the number of Domestic Workers losing their employment over the last year. Do they ever dare to speak up . It is uuite a do they ever dare to speak up . It 3 quite a difficult situation, particularly in Hong Kong, where many of the Domestic Workers have to choose between whether they want to speak up or whether they want to be able to sleep in the night, particularly we had a number of cases where we had to workers who continued with their employment for six or seven months of not receiving pay, not receiving rest days, sometimes going through physical and sexual abuse but continuing because their conditions were tied to their employment and their accommodation was tied to their employment. So because of that, they had to choose between having a place to sleep or whether they should find support. [30 whether they should find support.

A recap of our main story that we are continuing to follow reports of explosions in gaza. Palestinian Security Forces are reporting that. Do you stay with bbc news. Hello again. Tuesday was another very warm day across england and wales. Temperatures peaked at 27 degrees celsius. Thats just two down from the hottest day of the year, which was at the start of the week on monday. And as i say, england and wales enjoyed a lot of sunshine. Scotland and northern ireland, a different story. We had rain, and that band of rain continues to push its way eastwards over the next few hours whilst weakening, so the rain will become a lighter and patchier. Across the board, temperatures staying up into double figures as we head into the first part of wednesday morning. Now, this front is a cold front, and its an important one. Very weak, it will bring just a few patches of rain across North West England and North West wales. Sunny spells for scotland and northern ireland, a few isolate showers. Dry picture for East Wales and most of england with lots of sunshine. But its this front that separates the Fresh Air in the North West from the increasingly humid air across East Wales and england. And big temperature contrasts, too. Perhaps 18 degrees across the North West of the uk. Across East Wales and into the heart of england, temperatures well up into the mid 20s, the high 20s in places. But as we head into wednesday night, the atmosphere will become very volatile and will go bang. Yes, the first batch of thunderstorms, the first batch of quite a few thunderstorms, will be working in on wednesday night, pushing in perhaps across East Wales, certainly getting parts of england. And those storms will tend to clear north eastwards as we go through thursday, with the weather settling down to a degree. Still Fresh Air across the North West, still quite humid across parts of eastern england. Some uncertainty with the temperatures. Depends, really, how much sunshine we get through some of that highest cloud across eastern areas, but it could potentially be a bit warmer than that. On into friday, well, another batch of storms is going to be heading in from france. Again, its mainly targeting england. That will tend to push its Way Northwards as we go through friday night, with the weather again settling down, calming down to a degree as we head into saturday. And then we do it all again. Saturday night sees another batch of storms come through. This area of storms is probably going to be a little bit more widespread as it works its Way Northwards, joining forces with an atlantic Weather Front in the west. And that area of rain, thundery at times, will push northwards on sunday. So, weve got several bouts of thunderstorms coming our way over the next few days. The biggest of those could bring, well, nearly a Months Worth of rain in just a few hours. Flash flooding is possible. This is bbc news, the headlines us president Joe Biden has arrived in geneva ahead of his summit with russias president vladimir putin on wednesday their first Face To Face Meeting since biden was elected.
