Welcome to our viewers on pbs in america and around the globe. Days after the assassination of its president , haiti looks to be heading into a deeper political crisis. There are reports the countrys lawmakers have nominated the head of the Senatejoseph Lambert to be interim president in a move that a rival Political Faction including Acting Interim prime Minister Claudejoseph says is unconstitutional. Its notjust politics looking uncertain the us says it has no plans reports. Some of the men the haitian authorities say assassinated the Countrys President On Parade for the media hours after a long gunfight with Security Forces. The police also displayed some of the weapons they seized. Three members of the gang were killed and eight are on the run. Gunfire. The citizens of this impoverished nation are angry. Some members of the public have joined in the search for those still at large. As well as former colombian soldiers, the gang also included two americans of haitian descent. The us says its going to help with the investigation. In response to the haitian Governments Request for security and investigative assistance, we will sending senior Fbi And Dhs officials to port Au Prince as soon as possible to assess the situation and how we may be able to assist. Jovenel moise, the leader of the country with a long the nation is now facing a constitutional crisis, with no president or working parliament. Claudejoseph, the interim prime minister, is in charge for the time being. This is the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere with a raft of problems spiralling inflation, intense Poverty And Gang violence. But why a foreign Hit Squad would be deployed peter bowes, bbc news. A short time ago, i spoke to Amy Wilentz a journalist who focusses on haiti. She told me that much of the international community has grown fatigued of assisting haiti. I think weve just heard so far basically law enforcement, intelligence, fbi personnel. I dont think the united states has yet committed any troops to haiti i dont see why it would at this point. I have not seen in listening to people and looking at videos on the ground, i have not seen a kind of chaotic unrest that even compares to what there was before Jovenel Moise was assassinated on the ground so i am unimpressed by people gathering outside the Police Station and shouting and yelling about the guys who were arrested in the investigation into the assassination. There is a fractious history between haiti and the united states. President trump supported Jovenel Moise. President biden allowed him to continue his presidency, if you like. Does this change the situation and the relationship between the us . Well, i think it has it has certainly gotten the attention of the united states, whereas they were sort of hoping that they could just getjovenel through to an election that would look like a real election that might actually be one although most of us doubted that. They hoped that that could happen, even with this guy who was really not an effective Executive Or Leader of his country. But now, of course, they cannot rely onjovenel to sort of shepherd through a seeming election and now theyre stuck and they dont know what to do, so thats gonna be hard for the us and the international community in general the un, the organization of american states, et cetera. You mentioned the un this request has gone to the un for Security Forces to be deployed to haiti. Do we expect to see international foreign troops on the street of port Au Prince . Well, i dont know obviously but i think the un is thoroughly sick of haiti. They had a 13 Year Peacekeeping Force there that got in a lot of trouble in a lot of ways the last thing being the cholera epidemic, which the peacekeeping forces want to get entangled again. I think most outside forces dont want to get militarily Amy Wilentz. In a major escalation since international troops started withdrawing from afghanistan, the taliban have seized a key Border Crossing. Islam qala is one of the biggest Trade Gateways into neighbouring iran, generating around 20 Million a month for the afghan government. Afghanistans Defence Ministry says Security Forces are trying to recapture the site. These are momentous and deeply uncertain times in afghanistan. Kabul� s oldest market, one of its busiest. Painters, masons, plasterers, they all come here to find a days work. Its always been tough, but much tougher now. Translation the. Foreigners are leaving. We are worried about the war. Its everywhere. People are fleeing into the cities, but there is no work here. We are under so much pressure. This fridge. And they sold all their crockery . Yes. All their. 7 all equipment. All their pots . Selling up, upping sticks. More afghans are leaving. A street of second hand goods. Nusrat set up shop here when his job ended with the us military. Lots of afghans were working with them, now they are jobless. A lot of them, they are planning to go out of afghanistan because of their security and because of a lack ofjobs. You know, the americans said its time to go, its 20 years, thats enough. For what purpose did they come in and for what purpose are they going . What is the conclusion . If they didnt gain something, they didnt build something for us, they didnt make the security for us, why are they coming . Tea and treats in the city centre. Sweet moments for afghans who can afford them. The kind of life many young afghans here, men and women, want to live. Growing insecurity already threatens it. We are hurrying, just coming to the restaurant, coming to a cafe, meeting our friends, just go home. The taliban say this is a western lifestyle. Maybe they say we are acting like europeans or american people. But i think its not true. We have the right to choose our life. A lot is being knocked out of afghan lives. At this popular bowling alley, we hear notjust worry about the taliban. The government is failing them too, even in promoting sports like this. Munir Ahmad Assafi is a national champion. Translation fewer people are coming here now. Before we used to gather about a0 people, we would divide into teams and hold competitions, but that doesnt happen any more. The changes over the past 20 years in afghanistan have brought new measures of freedom to many living in kabul. Its a life they want to hold onto and now fear they are losing. The departure of international forces is turning into the loss of so much more. For now, the walls keep rising to protect the most powerful, most privileged. The government under pressure to protect its own people. As the taliban make rapid gains beyond kabul, you feel the rising uncertainty on every street. Lyse doucet, bbc news, kabul.

Russia, syrias key ally, signalled it wanted to close the crossing, preferring aid to come from Inside Syria instead. But after a last Minute Compromise, all members of the Security Council voted to keep it open for another year. This has proven to be the safest, the most direct, and the most reliable way of getting aid to people. Whatever happens, we must keep this Border Crossing open. If we can have more crossing points, we would welcome that. For this hospital, where medicines and supplies were already running low, its avoided a catastrophe.

Residents of california are bracing for a weekend of record setting temperatures as heat continues to build on the west coast. The us national Weather Service has issued an excessive Heat Alert, with meteorologists warning that some of southern californias inland areas could reach temperatures of 49 celsius that is 120 farenheit. Well earlier i spoke to eric schoening, and asked him what things were like at the moment. This is a long duration and widespread heatwave across much of the Western Us which has already begun, it is really going to peak this weekend, we are going to see really hot temperatures and really big heat impacts, potential Health Impacts for the population through the weekend and into the beginning of next week. And this comes off the back of periods of drought in california, Fire Concerns talk us through how those play out in this situation . Absolutely, so much of the western united states is in an extreme drought, so it has been going on for quite a while, and that creates a lot of concerns, Water Supply concerns in many places, we also have Fire Concerns in many places, where a lot of our fuels for potential wildfires are quite dry. And then you add on the heat and that dries out those potential Wildfire Fuels even more, and also as i mentioned, potentially leads to a lot of Health Concerns across the population. How long are you expecting this to go on for . It started ealier this week, around wednesday is when a lot of the heat really started building across south eastern california, and a lot of places across the united states� west will see the worst of the heat this weekend, saturday and sunday, potentially going into monday in a lot of places, and then we will finally get some relief tuesday and wednesday as we get a little bit of cooling across the region. In the cities and states that are affected, are they prepared for these kinds of temperatures . You know, its something that a lot of these states do see in the summer, and thankfully in this case we were able to get the warning out quite early, so a lot of the cities and states have been setting up things like cooling centres, and getting a lot of resources out to their people but at the same time, we are seeing temperatures that are meeting or sometimes exceeding all time record highs, so while this is something that a lot of these areas are ready for, at the same time these are temperatures that, you know, even people who have lived there a long time have never seen before. You mentioned the record high daytime temperatures, but these temperatures are staying high at nighttime as well, arent they . Thats right, they are staying quite warm at night, there are a lot of places that will be staying in the 70s and 80s degrees fahrenheit, so something like 25 celsius or even 30 celsius overnight in some places, so that is something that is really concerning, it really adds to the Health Concerns when people cannot cool off overnight. And in terms of trends, is this the kind of Weather Event you expect to see more of, year on year . Yes, as the globe continues to warm, studies have shown we will see more and more extreme Weather Events like this. While you cant necessarily tie one particular event to Climate Change very easily, we will continue to see more see more and more of these extreme Weather Events across the globe.

Having not won a stage in the race since 2016, cavendish claimed his fourth win in this Years Tour winning a sprint at The End of the 220km 13th Stage from nimes to carcassonne. Cavendish moves level on 3a Stage wins with the Legendary Belgian Rider Eddy Merckx a five time overall winner of the tour. He claimed his 34th Stage Win Way back in 1975. We can cross live now to bathurst, New South Wales and speak to Mark Renshaw he was a fellow sprinter and his primary responsibility in major races was as lead out rider for Mark Cavendish, which included the Tour De France.

This is an amazing feat, i havent had him on the phone | havent had him on the phone since his victory, i did that to him earlier in the Tour De France before he started his winning streak, and look, this will mean everything to Mark Cavendish. Eddy merckx is a man he respected very highly, as does everyone in cycling, so to draw equal with his record, it is a phenomenal effort, and i think it will take a little bit for this to sink in with Mark Cavendish because it was a record he probably never thought he would achieve, to equal Eddy Merckx, but this year, outlook, some things have fallen his way, he has had a little bit of luck, and now we are in the race, he has got the form and the lengths to be the best in the peloton, hence winning these four stages and drawing level with Eddy Merckx. And as you say this is remarkable because several years ago he said he thought his career was all but over . I retired back in 2019 and at that point i wasnt sure whether we would see Cavendish Return to the Tour De France and winning stages, he had a great year last year when his team, but this season, changing to deceuninckouickstep, a team that we both raced within the past, underthe that we both raced within the past, under the guardianship of patrick lefevre, he has flourished, he has found his form once again, and that Killer Instinct that makes him the best sprinter in the peloton. It is great to see him backin peloton. It is great to see him back in the game and it really has to be said that he is in the best team for sprinting. With those guys pulling together and working for Mark Cavendish, it does make him once again the best sprinter in the peloton. Once again the best sprinter in the peloton the peloton.

You need a team to win, without them you dont have any chance to be successful. Mark cavendish is one of the best team players in the sport of cycling.

And as a Team Leader he is one of the best Team Leaders i have worked with, obviously, that is what makes him super successful, the way he can lift riders, lift teams to take chase goals and numerous winds.

On saturday a new wimbledon champion will be crowned. Neither of the finalists, Ashleigh Barty and Karolina Pliskova, have won the event before in fact this is the first wimbledon final for both of them the first time that has happened since 1977. Therell be a much more familiar name in the mens final on sunday though Novak Djokovic goes in search of his sixth wimbledon title. But as our reporter at the all England Club reports, he too will face an unfamiliar name in sundays final. Ultimately, its no surprise to see Novak Djokovic into his seventh wimbledon final. This is a man motivated by numbers. And, win on sunday, and hell have 20 grand slams the same number as Roger Federer and rafael nadal. Standing in his way on friday was denis shapovalov, the 22 year old canadian whos won so many admirers at these championships with the way he plays. And he made djokovic work hard for this. Losing in straight sets, yes, but hanging in there in each and every one. From the beginning, when he broke djokovic early, he showed his intent, and at times, he got tight and nervous and that was his undoing on this occasion. But he will hope for better in the future. Matteo berrettini is who awaits Novak Djokovic in sundays final the first italian man to reach a wimbledon final. He got past Hubert Hurkacz in four sets, the Polish 14th Seed had already knocked out Roger Federer and daniil medvedev. But for hurkacz, he couldnt keep his nerves under control, at least in the first two sets before he battled back to win the third. But berrettinis powerful serve and forehand got him over the line. Before the mens final on sunday, we have the womens final on saturday the World Number one Ash Barty and the eighth seed Karolina Pliskova playing in their first wimbledon final. For barty, shes the first australian woman to get to a wimbledon final since Evonne Goolagong in 1980. For pliskova, she had been written off by many not a name people were expecting to see in the final, but could she yet pull off a Surprise Win . Also on sunday, england will play italy in the euro 2020 final. Many here in the uk will be glued to their seats. But they dont need to be, because we think we know whos going to win thats because of a group of so called � mystic meerkats� at London Zoo who have picked england as the winner a Zookeeper Put flags in their enclosure one for each country. The first to come down would be victorious. The meerkats are the latest in a long line of animals with Predictive Powers a german octopus picked winners during the 2010 world cup. Lets see if the meerkats� prediction is correct. Haiti was back senate has named the speaker of the Upper Chamber as interim president.

There will be some places staying dry, but the general theme this weekend is for sunny spells and for scattered showers to develop. Again, these will be heavy and thundery, and slow moving as winds will be light. If you look at the Pressure Chart for saturday, weve got this Weather Front across the south, bringing an area of more persistent rain to southern counties. It will continue its Journey Eastwards through the morning through the channel islands, southern and south eastern counties of england, then clear away in the afternoon. Elsewhere, after a dry start, well see those showers developing a little bit further westwards this time, affecting wales, west midlands, North West England and scotland. Again, it will be heavy, slow moving torrential downpours which could lead to localised flooding. Those temperatures range from 19 21 degrees. Now, those showers will fade away during saturday evening, and then, overnight, most places will be dry, but rain will start to push into the far west later on, those temperatures in double figures. Its going to be another mild and Muggy Night for most of us. Now, for sunday, a new area of low pressure starts to push in off the atlantic, affecting northern and western areas. It looks like some eastern parts may stay dry altogether with some hazy spells of sunshine. So, most of the heavy showers on sunday will be across more northern parts of the uk, but wales, northern ireland, the southwest of england will start to see areas of more persistent Rain Moving in. In the east, with that sunshine, we could see 22 23 celsius, and again, its going to feel quite humid. So, for wimbledon this weekend, saturday, the early rain will clear away to leave something a bit drier into the afternoon. Sunday, mainly dry, but i still Cant Rule out the Odd Shower there. And for wembley on sunday, certainly its a dry start, but into the evening, we start to see some of that rain in the west pushing its way eastwards. Thats because this area of low pressure will be working its way southwards and eastwards across the country. By monday, this is the Position Itll be in. Its going to bring a very unsettled day. Most northern and western areas will see sunny spells, some heavy showers. Its england and wales which will see the cloudiest skies and areas of heavy, maybe even thundery rain affecting central and southern areas, which could lead to some issues. The temperatures not quite as high 19 20 celsius will be the high. The heavy, thundery showers clearing away from the South And East on tuesday and wednesday. By the mid latter part of the week, High Pressure wants to build in, so itll start turning sunnier, drier, and warmer.
