For the first night of the proms in london. Welcome to our viewers on pbs in america and around the world. The Usjustice Department says Tax Returns belonging to the former president , Donald Trump must be handed over to congress. The decision reverses a previous ruling. Officials now say lawmakers have legitimate reasons for asking to see the documents. Heres our north america correspondent, david willis. Before he was elected, Donald Trump maintained that his Tax Records were under audit and they were apparently still under audit by the time hed left office. And two years ago, the us Justice Department turned down a request by the House Ways And Means Committee, which is looking into Donald Trumps financial affairs, for the treasury to be compelled to release those documents, those tax documents. Well now, the us Justice Department under the biden administration has reversed that decision, paving the way for the release of six years worth of Donald Trumps Tax Records. Democrats have welcomed the move, republicans have denounced it. Will we get to see the documents any time soon . That is very doubtful. Its likely that Donald Trump will fight this decision through the courts and it will ultimately be up to the ways and means committee to vote on whether to allow these documents to be released to a wider audience, including other members of congress. Ultimately, of course, as well to the public at large. David, you mentioned the former president has repeatedly resisted this. Has there been any immediate response from him orfrom the Trump Organization . Not so far and of course every president since Richard Nixon with the exception of one, Donald Trump, has released their Tax Records, and the House Ways And Means Committee is looking into possible financial conflicts of interest on the part of Donald Trump and the possibility of foreign interference. Of course last year, the New York Times released a report which claimed Donald Trump had paid very little, if none, Income Tax over the last few years so there is a lot of interest in this. As i say, it could be some time, though, if they do become public, before we get to see them. David willis with that analysis. Lets get some of the days other news.

Australias third largest city, brisbane, is to go into lockdown shortly in an attempt to contain the spread of the Delta Variant of coronavirus. The Deputy Premier of queensland said millions of residents in brisbane and several other areas would be ordered to stay at home for three days. Our correspondent Shaimaa Khalil has more details. We know that the cluster now in brisbane has increased to seven people. Six of those new cases were reported today, all linked to a 17 year old student, and this is why we are now hearing that the Snap Lockdown affecting South East Queensland, specifically 11 local areas in brisbane. What is worrying health authorities there is that they are expecting the number of exposure sites to increase. They are saying there is going to be an enormous list of exposure sites which means that it could be a larger number of cases as well. We heard from the Deputy Premier today who said that yes we have been here before but this is going to be different because of because of the transmissibility of the Delta Variant. He said we have to go in early and fast and this is why from later today until the coming tuesday, those 11 local areas are going to be under a strict lockdown, described as the strictest in brisbane, going out only for essential reasons, and for health related reasons, also for Covid Testing for covid vaccinations. We also heard from the prime Minister Scott Morrison who really changed his tune on lockdowns. A few weeks ago, we heard him say that lockdowns could be a last resort, but now what hes saying is that given the low rate of vaccinations in australia, the Snap Lockdowns in different areas are going to be the way forward to deal with the Delta Variant. A couple of weeks ago, Victoria And South australia have come out of their Snap Lockdowns. Now South East Queensland is going in and of course, here in New South Wales where i am, another high day of cases, 210, as the lockdown here in New South Wales, in sydney and the surrounding areas is extended for another four weeks.

Thank you for the undate to south america where more than 1600 women have died pigment women have died since the beginning of the pandemic. Pregnant women. The bbc has obtained exclusive footage from the only intensive Care Unit for pregnant women with Covid 19 in sao paulo. Bbc brasil� s Nathalia Passarinho reports. Sings along with music. 23 year old laryssa has always dreamt of being a mother. Just a year ago, she was 35 weeks pregnant with twin boys. Translation we started thinking of names, in casei we had boys or girls. We thought about clothes and the crib. Since the beginning, we started to plan everything. But her dream was taken away too soon. After being diagnosed with Covid 19, she was admitted to an icu in sao paulo. Shortly after an emergency c section, she died of a cardiac arrest. Translation i saw the babies, i saw what true love is. But when i received the news, it was so difficult. How could my whole World Fall apart in a matter of hours . Laryssa is one of more than 1,000 pregnant women who have died from covid in brazil this year. Neonatal wards in the country have been filled with premature babies. Deaths among pregnant women were high even before covid spread in brazil, mostly because of a lack of adequate specialist care, but the pandemic really made things worse. Dr Rossana Pulcineli in the intensive Care Unit she helped open in the city of sao paulo. It is the only unit in the country dedicated to pregnant women with covid. Why are so many pregnant women dying of covid in brazil . Translation we have serious problems with l the quality of assistance. One in five women that died did not have access to an intensive Care Unit. One in three didnt have access to intubation. The unit helped bring Mortality Rates down in the city, but in the poorer parts of brazil, access to even a Hospital Bed remains a challenge. In a remote village in north eastern brazil, Expeditos Wife Aline was only 27 weeks pregnant when she was diagnosed with covid. She had to be driven for two hours to reach a Hospital Bed. She died a few days later. Her babies were born on the same day. Translation for me, it was a big shock. I fell down to my knees near the doctors feet. I couldnt believe it. Do you believe there is something that could have been done differently to save Alines Life . I wish i had taken the vaccine for covid. Brazil has the second highest number of Covid Related Deaths worldwide, yet only over 16 of the population have been fully vaccinated so far. And until the pandemic is brought under control in brazil, thousands of pregnant women will remain at risk. Nathalia passarinho, Bbc News.

The us Champion Gymnast Simone Biles has withdrawn from two more competitions at the tokyo olympics. A Covid Outbreak first discovered in the chinese city of nanjing has spread to eight provinces and beijing. State media say its the most extensive outbreak since wuhan. Almost 200 people have been infected since the virus was first detected at the citys busy airport on 20 july. Earlier, i spoke to dr xi chen, associate professor of Public Health at yale university, and asked him exactly what is happening in nanjing. China has so far managed to keep the virus largely under control, as we know, by closing the borders and moving quickly to stamp out local outbreaks. But this time, nanjing authorities were slow in their identification of the virus and it was transmitted from an Air Flight from russia through Air China Airflight to Nanjing Onjuly 10, but after ten days, the first identifying case of positive Covid 19 infection was coming out, so it took around ten days, which was longer than usual. And it took another ten days for the authorities to trace the origin of this transmission, which was from the russian flight. So which took another ten days, so i think this timing, delayed timing, is really the key that has caused a large scale of spreading. As you were mentioning, five provinces but now actually, it is eight provinces, so its fast developing around 22 cities involved and more than 200 cases identified. This is an outbreak of the Delta Variant. You mentioned local authorities have been slow to act. What have they done . Are there lockdowns enforced . Are people being told to stay at home . Yeah, indeed, half of the cities are already under lockdown or Semi Lockdown not only for nanjing but all of the links, the traced destinations from nanjing. I was mentioning like eight provinces, 22 cities, have all kinds of different lockdowns based on their situations. And so far, most of the cases already have been traced the origin of the virus outbreak, which is good. That means it is still in the early stages. But there are still a few cases in some provinces and some sources are unknown so it is not clearly linked to nanjing so this is worrisome, so they have to be there quick on Contact Tracing and the tracing of the sources in order to stamp out the local outbreaks, and we all know this is so far the worst outbreak since wuhan. Just briefly, dr chen, do we know much about Vaccine Rollouts in the areas affected and how this virus is going to fare with that . Yeah, in general, china has a very vaccination rate. Its slowing down but its still very high and in some areas around 80 of people being vaccinated. It varies a little bit. But given this is Delta Variant, so the threshold of immunity will be changing, so even by the end of this year, the chinese authorities are aiming for about 70 80 of people vaccinated. So far, just ten days ago, they reached 1. 4 billion doses being vaccinated, so but given the new Delta Variant, it will take an even higher Number And Proportion of people to be vaccinated to fight against this Delta Variant.

For Music Lovers at the royal albert hall, the wait is over. Finally. I am absolutely thrilled. I have been waiting two years for this day. Being not socially distanced will be something to quickly get over. To be leaning forward, listening to music with the same intensity as the person next to you is going to be just it is a feeling of community. The concert was led by finnish Conductor Dalia Stasevska with the Bbc Symphony Orchestra socially distanced on a specially extended stage. How strict are they . We have a guy with a ruler. Laughs. What is it like to be back . We have been waiting over a year to have a full audience and i think that we are all emotional and we are going to play really our hearts out with this concert. What is the moment of the concert youre most looking forward to . Just to hear the People Clapping and the whole ritual just to start the silence and the waiting, when the first note starts to play. And the Opening Piece of music, by vaughan williams, held a special significance. Really, the whole night is about new beginnings and celebrating together. Last years proms ended on a controversial note after the bbc announced and then reversed a decision not to sing the lyrics of rule britannia. I have kind of moved forward from all of that and what i really want to say is that i am extremely proud that the whole last night actually came together at all. This years opening night drew a line under the controversy with a programme that was simultaneously reflective and hopeful. And when its all over, how are you going to feel . I think that after the journey that we have made from doing this 1. 5 years and that we finish the concert and we have the audiences there, i think it will feel like a great victory.

Gale force winds around coasts briefly. You can see on the Satellite Picture here thunderstorms and heavy showers inland, generally a really changeable day, but the weather has now shifted into the southern North Sea. Its approaching parts of germany and denmark. Behind it, you can see from the motion of the arrows, its a fairly cool north northwesterly, so its going to be a fairly cool day for most of us. Really quite nippy, in fact, in the very far north of the country. Sunny spells and showers expected. So lets have a look at the early morning hours. That northerly wind blowing across scotland and along the North Sea coast. Showers there right from the word go, but i think showers are possible almost anywhere early in the morning, apart from the extreme North West of the country here. Temperatures a little on the fresh side, around 12 13 degrees in some spots. And then, tomorrow, a pretty cloudy day for many of us in the morning at least, to start with. Then the sunny spells develop, but also the showers, and some of them will be heavy. You can see here in the east of the country and the north, some thunderstorms there, too. Showers also breaking out across the south. The best of the weather, i suspect, in the North West of the country, parts of Northern Ireland, South Western and Western Scotland and also cornwall, devon and southern Wales Shouldnt do too bad on saturday. Heres a look at sundays weather map. The weather still coming in from the north. We have a Weather Front crossing the country. That is expected to bring showers to more southern areas of the uk on sunday. They should be more confined towards the very far south towards the end of the day. Thats how the day starts, so a little on the chilly side in some areas. Those northerly winds, feels quite nippy along the North Sea coast, could even be around 111 15 degrees during the daytime. Best spots, i think, in Southern Wales, maybe Northern Ireland again, but i think in Southern Wales and cardiff, up to around 21 degrees or so. So, heres the Weekend Summary again, and the outlook into next week, not an awful lot changes. Theres no warm weather on the way. I think its going to stay more or less the same, below average and a chance of some showers. And thats it, bye bye.
