The first to test positive for covid. Israels Prime Minister has called on the us and its allies to wake up to the threat of iran. The warning comes as diplomats reported progress on reviving a Landmark Deal to limit the countrys nuclear programme a deal the us withdrew from under president donald trump. Mark lobel reports. World powers have been negotiating with iran since april to stop it from being able to build a nuclear bomb. In return, iran wants rid of sanctions harming its ailing economy. As both sides agreed to revive a previously agreed deal, the Mood Music sounds good from iran, the eu and the us. We are closer to a deal than any time in the past, but it doesnt mean that we are there. The next round, delegations will come back from capitals with clearer instructions, clearer ideas on how to finally close the deal. The whole question of which sanctions will be lifted is currently being negotiated in vienna, and im not going to conduct those negotiations in public. Complicating matters, irans supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamanei, whos the ultimate powerbroker here, has repeatedly called the elimination of americas ally, israel. Now israel says the recent election of Hardlinber Ebrahim Raisi as irans next president has heightened fears. Raisis election is, i would say. The last chance for World Powers to wake up before returning to the nuclear agreement and understand who they are doing business with. These guys are murderers, mass murderers. Iran already blames israel for the murder of its top nuclear scientist last year, and an attack on one of its Uranium Enrichment plants in april. On sunday, iranian State Tv reported technical problems at this nuclear Power Plant in bushehr. Its been temporarily shut down, it says, for a technical overhaul. Fires have hampered operations in the past, but accidents have also turned out to be foreign attacks. However, such is the momentum of the current negotiating table, there is talk of an imminent nuclear deal soon. The chances of the iran factor is a final point of negotiations, maybe by mid july. Departing vienna, delegations are now returning to their capitals for consultations there. Mark lobel, bbc news. Ten people, including nine children, have been killed in the crash involving 18 vehicles in the us state of alabama. The County Coroner says the vehicles were likely to have hydroplaned on the wet roads and lost control after tropical Depression Claudette battered the state, with lush budding tornadoes and destroying of homes as well. Jeremy grey is reporter with the Alabama Media Group and has been covering this truly awful story which happened on saturday. Can you run through what has happened . In south alabama, in boulder county, 165, the interstate, there were multiple vehicles, 18, as you said, they collided. We had a tropical storm, claudette, a lot of rainfall. And in the course of that, an suv carrying a 29 year old man and his young daughter, they were killed and also collided with a Van Carrying residents of a Youth Home.

Cubas soberana 2 Vaccine Candidate has shown 62 efficacy with just two of its three doses, according to the State Run Bio pharmaceutical corporation.

Ahead of me and my� s ruling militaries in moscow to attend a military conference. As another sign of how the army is looking to tighten its grip on the country and seek out international support as well. As aung san suu kyi, civilian leader overthrown by the military, faces the next stage of her trial. The un has called for a Court Halt to the blow of arms to iran. Michael vatikiotis, The Asia Regional Director at the centre for humanitarian dialogue, explained. I think its very clear that russia is now one of myanmar� s closest friends. We saw The End of march that russia sent to Deputy Defence Minister to attend the army day, in a very high profile visit. Russia denies that its supporting the regime, and agrees with its methods, but nonetheless russia is now one of myanmar� s closest friends, and i think is visit really does show that myanmar has alternatives when it comes to weapons. Right, ye, however limited they might be. If a country like russia is prepared to deal with them, clearly they have access, dont they . And in terms of what they might do with them, the fighting goes on obviously in many quarters across the country, and The Village of Kin Ma was torched after fighting in that area. Do you think that is part of a policy to put down insurgency, if i can put it like that . The violence has become much more complicated than it was at the start of the coup, where you had protests that were eventually violently put down. Now you have violence on both sides, you have people being trained in ethnic areas who are being armed, who are beginning to launch attacks on Myanmar Armed Forces and police, in ethnic areas, marginal areas of the country as well as the army continuing to arrest and abduct people it considers to be suspect. They can be as young as 12 or 13 year old people who are just abducted or even shot, and i think what we are seeing now is that low Level Violence is appearing in cities, people are being abducted, people are being assassinated in urban areas of yangon, and these are people who are suspected of being informants. Its not clear who some of these people are all the time, and so the violence has become much more complicated on both sides. And would you expect that do notjust to continue but worsen . I think it will continue, and unless Theres Leadership that emerges on the side of the opposition with these so called Peoples Defence forces, its going to be quite difficult for this violence to become co ordinated. And if the army could just wait until it sort of peters out, however, as the army continues to launch these punitive attacks, as you mentioned, in central myanmar, there will be increasing anger and increasing violence. Its hard to see the opposition winning outright but we will see this kind of low Level Violence escalated over its looking as though the far right party of Marine Le Pen has failed to make the electoral break through it was hoping for in france, where a first round of regional elections has been taking place. Exit polls put her party in second place, well behind the main centre right republicans, but still ahead of emmanuel macron� s centrists. Voter turnout was exceptionally low. The regional elections are being watched closely really for clues to next yea r� s residential contest. A corresponding paris, hugh schofield, has the details. Its a very complicated election, and it breaks down into regions. Its very hard to be sure that theres any hard and fast reflection of national tendencies or trends that will come to fruit in the election next year for the presidency, but clearly Marine Le Pen was hoping for a big showing on this first round of the vote, and she hasnt really got it, as far as i can see. It looks like her vote taken nationally, taken nationally, is about 20 , but the vote for the Mainstream Right is much larger, its about 29 . She was hoping to be able to show that in two regions in particular, around nice In The South and around lille and calais in the north, that she would stand a chance of getting those next week, but those are looking much more problematic now than they were 2a hours ago so it is not a great night for her, nor is it a great night for President Macron because, as predicted, and this is where he can say, well, we didnt expect to do well, but as predicted, his Party Score is very low, probably no more than 10 nationally, and in many regions, his Party Wont get through to the second round because its so low. Hell be able to say with some justification party, and the turnout was so desperately low, around 33 , it meant that broadly speaking, governors or republicans or councils which were in place already may have left or intended to show to do well and therefore a big kind of reward for whoever was in place at the time.

I think there are communities of colour that have been treated very poorly for a long time in the united states, and therefore have developed a mistrust of institutions. We also have people at a level of education that dont understand how the vaccine was developed or how it works. Then you have people with particular religious backgrounds or political affiliations that may have concerns around the government and it coming up with a vaccine quickly, the safety of it, whether or not it is being used to track them in some way.

Cannotjoe biden make a difference.

I think others who feel somewhat invincible feel they arent at particular high risk, and people are also fatigued with everything, so there is some of that. There are issues getting in the way. People dont have time to get off work, they may not have transportation to get a vaccine.

For the millions of young people living and seoul, the pandemic has met hour upon hour of being stuck in virtual classrooms, no chance of seeing friends or playing outside even. Many say it has left them feeling isolated and depressed. Some families have abandoned the city and embarked on rural life. As part of our education interrupted series, our correspondent has visited them. Freedom. Freedom, after almost a year cooped up inside a small inner City Apartment in seoul, these children are finally free to roam. Translation during the pandemic i couldnt go to school and took online classes every day. I cried a lot, it was so hard. There were lots of things i wanted to do but i couldnt to any of them. Translation but exploring The Village, right away i was captivated. The traditional old houses, so close to nature, i really loved that. But in south korea, academic success is everything. Translation people kept saying, why are you going l there. They called me weird. South korean mums are eager to send their kids to a good university. Education fever here is high. They thought by moving here we were giving up on education. But they dont think the city is the only way to study. I want to raise my children in a challenging environment. I want them to learn nothing comes for free. And he is not the only new kid in town. Schools here are enjoying a revival. Translation seven new students have joined our school this year. One girl used to study only with her teacher but now she can enjoy group activities and project. With more than 80 new students arriving in the area, it is notjust schools that are flourishing. Translation now it is a town where kids run around. It is to be a town with no children but now a young families live here too copy the atmosphere is really lively and i hear lots of laughter. Translation i believe this has been one of the happiest times | of my life, because it was filled with all the delightful things. Good luck to them, and good luck to tokyo. A ugandan Team Coach has tested positive for coronavirus after arriving in tokyo ahead of the olympic games. Uganda is sending 36 athletes and support staff, they have been given two doses of the astrazeneca dose. This comes as tokyo lays out very harsh restrictions ahead of the game is. This is the tokyo olympic village, and the first chance for media to take a look at what will be the hump of the tokyo olympic games. In a few weeks time, thousands of athletes will arrive in tokyo, and this is where they will state during the games. Olympic organisers have brought us here to show us how they will do this safely. This is a representation of what the Athletes Village bedrooms look like. These other beds, quite small. They are also, as you can see, made of cardboard. This is a environmentally friendly. The main issue about the design of these bedrooms is they are shared, as they always have been in previous olympics, but because of the pandemic, many experts say that Sharing Rooms for athletes is a really bad idea. This is one of the main dining halls. You can see it as fast, and it needs to be because they will serve 45,000 meals every day during the games. To mitigate the risk of having so many people coming here every day and mixing, they are telling athletes to use their smart Phone App to find out when it is least busy, too, alone, pick up their meal, and come to one of these tables with a Plastic Divider on them. They are told to eat their meal alone and do so quickly. Doesnt sound like an awful lot of fun but that is how they are mitigating the risk. This is the main gym, pretty huge. There is room for 500 people to train at any one time. They have dividers between the machine, but the major Anti Covid measured they will and force as making everybody who comes in to wear a mask, even when on of these machines. It is hard to see how they will enforce it or how olympic level athletes will wear and mask while training on these machines. This is a facility specifically built because of the covid 19 pandemic. You wouldnt find it in a normal olympics. This is the fever clinic. You go here to get tested if you develop symptoms. You get a Pcr Test and if it comes back positive, an athlete will be brought to one of the Specialist Isolation rooms. This has an Infiltration System meaning no virus can get out of this room. They will be kept here until they can be moved elsewhere. And that comes as anxiety is about, keeping covid at bay. This is bbc news. Thank you. Hello. Like it or not, weve reached that Turning Point in the year summer solstice, the longest day, on monday with nearly 19 hours of daylight in shetland. Just over 16 and a half across the channel islands. But, across some southern areas, you will be lucky to see sunrise or sunset. It is going to be a fairly cloudy and wet start to the week here. Brightening up as the week goes on as things turned a Bit Cloudier and more showery further north as we go through the week and, to start with rather cool, too. An area of low pressure to the southwest of us which has thrown up some Weather Fronts to take us into the start of monday across southern counties of england. Its here where there will be more persistent rain on the South Coast first thing. Not a cold start here, but chillier elsewhere with clear skies away from this zone of Thicker Cloud In Southern Scotland Producing 1 2 showers. That Will Push Into Northern England slowly as we go through the day, Sunshine Either Side of it. But notice how the rain develops more widely in southern counties of england as we go through monday, inching up close to the South And East midlands, parts of east anglia, too, maybe even close to southeast wales. But much of wales and the midlands stays dry and bright, still got the Northeasterly Breeze here and, where the rain is falling, temperatures will struggle to get above the mid teens. A few showers in northern england, but towards the western coast here, West Wales and western scotland, we could get to around 19 20 celsius during the afternoon. Now, through monday night, Rain Still at times across these southern counties of england that will stop temperatures from falling, but clearer skies, midlands, wales, northwards means its going to be a chilly start to tuesday morning. The first night after the summer solstice, we could even see A Touch Of Frost through some Shelter Valleys in the grampians. Thats because weve got an area of high pressure building up from the azores wrong side of us, though, because around it, were bringing in some Cold Airfrom the north as we go through tuesday. Cold relative to the time of year, of course, but it will help to clear away the rain eventually from the southernmost counties of england. Long, sunny spells for most to begin with, clouding over a touch through the afternoon across england and wales as the cloud builds up and spreads out. Not as chilly for some of you as monday will have been. Another Cool Night across england and wales as we go into wednesday. Here, the best of the dry and brighter weather, but clouds spitting in from the northwest will bring in a few spots of rain or drizzle. Even with that cloud, though, slightly milder air, 18 19 celsius across the north, but 21 further south. Thursday will bring that cloud further south in fact, The End of the week cloudy for most with a few splashes of rain at times, but temperatures near average forjune.
