Englands footballers relax ahead of their European Championship semifinal against denmark on wednesday. Good Afternoon And Welcome to the Bbc News at one. The Prime Minister is to announce details of plans to ease most of the remaining coronavirus restrictions in england. The measures could include making the wearing of a facemask voluntary, ending Social Distancing rules, and signing in at pubs and restaurants. Covid infections in england are still rising, and are expected to rise further if the rules are eased, but ministers think the vaccine is limiting the number of deaths. There is concern though from medical leaders, scientists, and some union leaders about making the wearing of Face Coverings a personal decision. Plans for scotland, wales and Northern Ireland Will be outlined later this month. Heres our political correspondent Helen Catt. For more than a year, ministers have certain laws that have closely governed some of the smallest details of our lives. From the 19th Ofjuly in england that is set to change. Instead it Will be up to us to decide. One Metre Plus Distance and rules are expected to be scrapped so pubs would no longer be forced to provide Table Service for example. We wouldnt have to check in to visit a venue and they would not be any cap on how many people we could meet or have inside our own homes. The government says coronavirus cases Will go up that is set to change. Instead it Will be up to us to decide. One Metre Plus Distancing rules are expected to be scrapped so pubs would no longer be forced to provide Table Service for example. We wouldnt have to check in to visit a venue and they would not be any cap on how many people we could meet or have inside our own homes. The government says coronavirus cases Will go up but the Vaccine Programme means fewer people are ending up in hospital. Although Infection Rates are rising, Hospital Admissions are not rising at the rate we have seen in previous weeks. If we look back to december for instance, when we had around 23,000 infections, per day, there were nearly 15,000 people with covid in hospital whereas now there is only around 1700 in england. {131 hospital whereas now there is only around 1700 in england.

The train Drivers Union Aslef says its a step too far too soon. I Will be keeping my mask and i think there Will be times we want to do things slightly differently from how we are at the moment, however, i puta differently from how we are at the moment, however, i put a plea and for the shop workers, people in restaurants and on the transport system, we are doing it for them as well as Each Other and its really important we take into account not putting them at risk. Isolation if you test positive for coronavirus Will still be required and its Will still be required and its expected there Will be a signal given on the future of the Isolation Policy for schools. The overall message from Downing Street, though, is although the rules may be about to disappear, the risk posed by covid wont. Its about learning to live the virus. Our Health Correspondent Michelle Roberts is here. We expect this announcement on easing restrictions in england in a couple of weeks, but making Face Coverings voluntary is controversial, isnt it . It is and its very much moving the decision on to the individual, saying you now need to make a choice about where you wear them, whether you have them at all. We know that Face Coverings arent good at protecting other people so if i wear one it reduces the risk of me passing on covid if i got it through the air that i breathe out, thus better droplets. In terms of me wearing one to be protected from somebody else, the science is less solid on that, but it does seem to cut the risk again. But at the moment, because weve got vaccines rolling up which are effective, they are doing the heavy lifting of preventing the spread so they are not perfect, and thats where the debate comes in. How many other measures do we need as well . We know people staying at home if they got symptoms or tested positive, isolating from other people, also has a big impact, so it really comes down tojudging the has a big impact, so it really comes down to judging the risk, coronavirus cases going up, its not going away, there is a risk of death. So in crowded spaces thats my facemasks have been so useful up until now. , my facemasks have been so useful up until now. ,. , my facemasks have been so useful up until now. ,. , ~. Until now. Ok, many thanks. Michelle roberts there lets speak to our political correspondent Helen Catt in westminster. This is a big moment for borisjohnson, but its not without risk . No, its a big moment, as you say. It would be confirmed until next monday if these measures Will definitely go ahead on the 19th, but its certainly a big step. This would mark the closest return was close to normal as we have seen since the start of the pandemic. It Will be the final step on that Road Map out of restrictions which Boris Johnson has consistently said he hoped would be irreversible, so the timing is really important and getting that right, and there Will be a lot of pressure on the Prime Minister, the health secretary, later to set out why they think now is the right time to make that final step. The other big shift, as you just mentioned, is that move from being the government being very hands on, Making Laws to guide us in dealing with the pandemic, to the shift to personal responsibility instead, and that means they Will need to be some clear messaging from the government to make sure that people really know what they are doing and that debate about facemasks really does show some of the difficulties. As you said, its very easy to make a personal decision to go into a queue in a bar or not, but its not a personal decision if the person next to you on a Bus Isnt wearing a Face Covering but there are difficulties and it Will depend a lot on clarity of messaging. What i expect to hear from the Prime Minister later, though, is a sense of caution. Many thanks. And you can watch the prime Ministers News Conference from Downing Street this afternoon here on bbc one. Coverage starts at 4. 45. Explosives have been used to demolish the remains the remains of an Apartment Block near miami that partially collapsed 11 days ago. 2a people are known to have died and more than 120 others are still unaccounted for. Aru na iyengar reports. The remaining section of Champlain Towers south complex comes crashing down. Demolition experts drilled small explosive charges into columns to bring the remaining unstable structure down in a controlled explosion. Neighbours were advised to stay indoors and close their windows until two hours after the explosion. But some came to pray for those still missing. Drones with Thermal Imaging were used to make sure there were no people or pets still inside the building. The approaching tropical storm elsa, which has hit cuba with winds of up to 65 mph, brought forward discussions about when to demolish the remaining building. Its eliminated a looming threat, a dangerous threat for our rescue workers. It Will potentially open up probably a third of the pile so we can all, you know, so the teams can focus not just on two thirds of the pile but on the whole thing. Crews are now hoping to be able to get into the Apartment Blocks Underground Garage and get a clearer picture of any air holes that may exist in the rubble. But no survivors have been pulled out alive from the site in surfside since the first few hours after the structures collapse. Thats 11 days ago. What caused the Ao Year old building to collapse is still unclear, but a 2018 inspection warned of major flaws in the original design. Aruna iyengar, Bbc News. The queen has awarded the nhs the George Cross for bravery, as the Health Service marks its 73rd birthday. Her majesty has paid tribute to the courage, Compassion And Dedication of all Nhs Staff.

First of all, the pull out has gone much faster than anyone expected and everyone is scrambling how to secure the international airport, how to make sure the embassies are safe, how to continue to provide Security Assistance to the Afghan National Security Forces and also at the same time the taliban are advancing at a Scale And Speed thats taken everyone by surprise.

Legislation on safety in high rise buildings, drawn up in response to the Grenfell Tower Disaster four years ago, Will be presented to parliament this afternoon. The Building Safety Bill Will create a new regulator with powers to prosecute developers. Sarah corker is in salford for us. Sarah, how significant is this new legislation and what difference Will it make . This legislation outlines major reforms to Building And Fire safety in england and wales. As you say, there Will be a new regulator and it Will have powers to prosecute developers who dont meet standards. It Will also have the ability to force them to withdraw products from the market, and this of course is four years since the Grenfell Tower Fire which exposed decades of failures and Safety Checks on high rises since then have exposed the problem is notjust with cladding but many other Fire Safety false too. This building in Salford Quays just having their cladding removed at the moment, and there is this £5 billion Government Cladding Removalfund, but mps this £5 billion Government Cladding Removal fund, but mps estimate this is a £15 billion problem and leaseholders say they are the ones having to pay these huge costs. In this legislation this afternoon, we expect there Will be a legal requirement for Building Owners to look at alternative methods of paying to fix these buildings before passing on those costs to leaseholders. Leaseholders Will also have 15 years to sue developers for shoddy workmanship. At the moment they have six years. Cladding campaigners say they just they have six years. Cladding campaigners say theyjust dont have the time and money to take on these complex legal cases. It is also difficult as well to prove a liability.

One of the cities is lod, about 15 miles south of tel aviv. Back in may, a palestinian citizen was shot dead and a jewish israeli was killed when a rock was thrown at his car.

Hundreds went on the rampage, attacking synagogues and schools. Jewish extremists came and the violence spiralled. Two israeli citizens were killed, onejewish and one arab. Theres nobody better than you, this is the last message that moussa left for his father, not long before he was shot dead. A localjewish man is under arrest, but Moussas Family are not reassured. They say arabs are discriminated against. Translation we have no future as long as israels i policy is to kill arabs and force them to leave. There is no hope. Across the city, the sense of calm feels fragile. A growing presence ofjewish religious nationalists here has fed arab resentment. Talking to people here in lod, you realise the problems didntjust start with the latest violence. They are deeply rooted, going back years. Now theres so much Anger And Distrust between people who are neighbours. Now, were just trying to get back to normal life. The government and the police did not do enough steps that it wont happen again. We still have illegal weapons going around here. Since the riots, every day, we have something going on. Theres an expectation things could easily erupt again. Despite one being arrested, these two arab israeli men say theyre ready to return to the streets. Translation we have regained our dignity.

Japanese Rescue Teams are still searching through wrecked homes and buried roads, days after a Landslide Hit the town of atami. At least three people are known to have died so far, but around 80 are believed to be missing. The area was hit by more than a Months Worth of Rain Injust21i hours. The rspca has received almost 100,000 reports of Cruelty To Animals across the uk over the last five years, withjuly often being the busiest month for investigating cases. As officers prepare for another demanding summer, its launched a new campaign to promote Animal Welfare. Luxmy gopal reports now from north yorkshire. Good boy. Cuddles, treats and playtime, everything mans best friend deserves. But a year ago, Maxs Life was different. We received a report from somebody that had overheard Someone Bragging they had just beaten up their dog. So they made the call to us and we attended the address with the police. Hello, can you open the door, please, sir, it is the police . Thats when we found max, terrified, covered in blood and badly injured. Theres a lot of blood here, sir. On the floor. Do you know what thats from . Evidence at the scene suggested max had been beaten with a metal colander. He was rescued and cared for at the Rspca York animal home, which oversees recovery, rehabilitation and rehoming. This was a Willing act of cruelty. He wilfully submitted max to terrible injuries. And an appalling act of violence. Over the past five years, the rspca has received the equivalent of 10,000 reports of intentional Animal Cruelty every six months, with a spike lastjuly when more than 1,500 incidents were reported in that month alone. Max was left with a fractured pelvis and dislocated hip. Over months, his Health And Confidence was rebuilt. We were overwhelmed, really, at how forgiving he was, mainly. An animal thats gone through what he went through really had the right to never trust people again, but he did. And hes living his best life now. And, as a special treat, a reunion with the staff who turned his life around. Come on good boy. Bless him to see him this happy is. You know, its why we do what we do, really. Itjust makes everything worthwhile. The idea of deliberate Animal Cruelty seems almost incomprehensible. But at least this tale has a happy ending, with max shaking off his past trauma and finding an owner worthy of his loyalty. The England Squad have been back in training as they continue to prepare for their euro 2020 semifinal against denmark on wednesday night. Theyll be roared on by 60,000 fans at wembley. Our Sports Correspondent Olly Foster is at the England Base in staffordshire. This could be the greatest week of the england players lives. They were given yesterday off after all their weekend exertions, that Quarterfinal Win against ukraine their most complete performance at this tournament so far, and then that late Night Travel back from rome, but they are now training on the Sir Bobby Charlton pitch, and five games into this Tournament Gareth Southgate has a full 26 Man Squad at his disposal. No Injuries Bukayo Saka had a slight knock that saw him miss that quarterfinal, but he was back training with the main group, so, a fantastic situation for southgate to be in. At the core of that team are players who have been here before, just three years ago, when they reached the semifinals at the World Cup in russia. So, jordan pickford, john stones, harry maguire, harry kane, raheem sterling, a few others, and their experience is going to be so key over the coming days leading in to the wembley semifinal. Denmark, of course, their progress has been lauded, as well, theirs one of the stories of this European Championship, but their progress to the last four is as unexpected as when they actually won this tournament back in 1992. They did beat england quite recently, in the Nations League last autumn, but england Will be huge favourites going into this game, notjust because of the way that theyve been playing, hitting their stride atjust the right time, but wembley Will be a huge factor. This tournament is now a Home Tournament for england, and there Will be 60,000 there, the best part of them roaring england on, and Gareth Southgate says that his players Will feed off that. Olly foster reporting there. Just over 9,000 people Will be on Court One To Watch british teenager Emma Raducanu continue herjourney at wimbledon this afternoon. The 18 year old plays australian Ajla Tomljanovic for a place in the quarterfinals. Laura scott is at the all england club. There is a real buzz here about Emma Raducanu and her breakthrough which has shocked her into the spotlight and up more than 150 places in the world rankings. She has Nothing To Lose today and Will take confidence from the fact she has already beaten a player ranked higher than tomljanovic. But she seems to be playing for fun, tomljanovic. But she seems to be playing forfun, embracing tomljanovic. But she seems to be playing for fun, embracing this extraordinary experience and seeing just how long it lasts. Long term goals, my dream is to win wimbledon. Emma raducanus hardly the only tennis mad teenager with that ambition. The difference is shes already made her mark on sw19 in remarkable style. Promoted from court 18 to the show courts, shes now been hailed the star of british tennis after making it through to the fourth round, all without losing a set or her cool. After the covid situation, i think you just have to cherish every single moment that you get, and all the opportunities. Soi so i think that is definitely. If youre not having fun at court 1, where are you going to have fun . On the court or in the classroom, raducanu held herself to high standards. She is awaiting her a level results and wont accept anything less than a s. Her school in bromley already had one former pupil expected to set the Sporting World alight this summer in olympic Sprinter Dina Asher smith. Now it has another, who is already inspiring pupils. I hope that i could be there one day. It Will take time but is not out of reach, i can do it. Those who have seen her grow up have been waiting for her breakthrough. We are not seeing anything different in mr on the court than what we have seen at school. Shes focused, determined, hard working and shes giving this everything we know she has got. Raducanus other hobby is muddier and less tranquil. Yes, thats her under the helmet doing motocross as a youngster. There was go karting too, but tennis won through in the end.
