And at the paralympics its two Gold Medals and two World Records for the british Cycling Couple Husband and Wife Lora and neil fachie. Hello, and welcome if youre watching in the uk or around the world. The us military says its carried out a Drone Strike in western afghanistan, targeting what it said was a planner for the islamic State Group known as isis k. The group is thought to have carried out the attack on thursday at Kabul Airport, in which 170 people were killed inluding 13 american service personnel. In a statement, us Central Command said that the unmanned Air Strike occurred in the Nangahar Province of afghanistan. Initial indications are that we killed the target. We know of no civilian casualties. Meanwhile, the last british flights carrying civilian refugees out of afghanistan are leaving kabul today. This report from graham satchell. The final flights leaving Kabul Airport. The british effort here is all but done. It has been a mammoth logistical operation. In just two weeks, more than 14,000 people airlifted by the raf to safety in the uk. But the Ministry Of Defence acknowledges as many as 1,000 former interpreters and other staff will left behind. We are so worried about our future. I think its not fair. Its like a betrayal of their own heroes. The horrifying aftermath of the Terror Attack at the airport. President biden promised to hunt down is k, the group responsible. And overnight, us forces have carried out a Drone Strike in eastern afghanistan, killing a so called terrorist planner. Among those killed in the suicide bombing, London Taxi Driver Mohammad niazi who travelled to kabul to help his family escape. His eldest daughter is missing, his wife also killed. Kabul� s main hospital is full of the injured, like two year old mohammed reza, fighting for his life. What chance now that these people, many of whom worked for western forces, will be able to get to safety . There will, sadly, be people who havent got Through, people who might qualify, and what i would say to them is that we will shift heaven and earth to help them get out. We will do whatever we can. Immediately outside the airport, the crowds of people have gone, the streets empty. The Taliban In American Military Vehicles have set up roadblocks to stop people getting near. Some taliban leaders claim to have already taken over parts of the airport a claim denied by the mod and the pentagon. Theyre not in charge of any of the gates. Of any of the airport operations. That is still under us military control. The global effort to get people to safety is now ending. These german troops have already returned home. Spanish troops are back in madrid. British and american forces will be the last to go. The 20 year western mission in Afghanistan Ends in a chaotic, bloody withdrawl with the taliban ready to take charge. Graham satchell, bbc news. The chief of the british Armed Forces, general sir nick carter, confirmed that after today, Flights Out Of Kabul would only be used to bring troops home. Weve done an extraoridnaryjob to evacuate as many as we have, but im afraid its absolutely heartbreaking that we cant bring everybody out, and i think that point� s been made very strongly, certainly by the Defence Secretary and others in the last ten days or so. Personally, ive probably had over 100 messages from different afghans who i know in my long association with the country, and many of those friends of Mine Wont make it out. And, for me, not a day passes without me having a bit of a tear in my eye about all of that. I mean, you know, he uk will continue to welcome those sorts of people we should be pretty clear of that, and i think our government has made that very clear. If they are able to get out post this evacuation, if you like, the second phase of it, they will always be welcome if they need to come. And im afraid it is an awfulfact of life that difficult decisions have had to be made. Some people have not been able to make it across town, across kabul to be able to get to the evacuation. Others have kept their head down, for obvious reasons. But the plain fact is that were there for them into the future if they need us. Earlier, i spoke to our political Correspondentjessica Parker absolutely, i think referring to it as probably one of the most challenging times because of course a lot of international troops have already left, the british and americans as we were just hearing will be the last to leave. The americans will be the last to leave. So i think he is speaking to the fact that that will be a difficult moment. In terms of civilian flights, as weve been hearing some civilian flights are still to take out, but very few left. And then Uk Troops will be coming out. Some Uk Troops, though, already returning. But it is a delicate situation. Of course, overnight as well we saw the Drone Strike by the americans against the planner for is, and labours shadow Defence Secretaryjohn healey was asked for his reaction to that Drone Strike earlier. The strike overnight was part of the necessary steps that the us has been taking, not just to try and keep the airport safe and their us troops and civilians safe but the brits as well. Weve only been able to do this evacuation because the us was willing to put in an extra 6,000 troops to secure the airport. So, when were under attack and our personnel on the ground have been under attack in recent days. Its been dangerous desperate, desperate mission under the most unimaginable circumstances. Where necessary, it was important that they did that strike and i think our thoughts now, as those last british military planes and then those last british us planes leave, these are prime terrorist targets. And we all want to see our british troops, every one of them, back home safely soon, and the us troops back home safely as well. And ijust think one of the main political focus is now in the uk will be on those afghans who have been left behind, who worked with the british authorities, and of course this Refugee Scheme that the government recently announced. How is that going to work . How are people going to be safely got out of afghanistan who didnt make it to the airport . 0ur Correspondent Rajni vaidyanathan has been in afghanistan shes now in delhi and we can speak to her now. What are you hearing about the situation on the ground In Kabul as the evacuation draws to a close .

Coronavirus plans for schools in england have been described as a recipe for chaos by Education Unions, who say they will not be enough to prevent a rise in infections. The government said it has updated its advice on how to respond to an outbreak with minimum disruption to education. Paul gosling is the headteacher of Exeter Road Community Primary School in exmouth and also the Vice President of the national association of head teachers. I asked him how feels about schools reopening. Ive got a growing nervousness, actually. We finished in the summer. Everyone i know wanted to have a rest from what was quite a difficult 18 months. And then hoping that Infection Rates would be tailing off during the summer holidays and that we could return to normal in school in september, which is something that we all wanted to do. But, you know, the news from sage and whats been going on in scotland is raising some concerns now, that perhaps the government has not got plans in place to really address what might happen in the next few weeks. Well, the government says it has updated its advice on how to respond to an outbreak with minimum disruption. Are you clear about the plan and how it will work . Yeah, ive been reading the plans this morning, ive been preparing ready for my school to open. And certainly, there are some steps in there that, if you get an outbreak in school, you can take and give the school are measures that they can put in place. But, however, what im worried about is that staff are going to be getting ill and they are going to be off school and hopefully wont be getting seriously ill because they are double vaccinated, but that will cause disruption. We wont have staff in school, teachers may well be absent for a period of time. So the government may have a plan for reducing infection, but if infection get into a School It will cause a disruption Through Staff And Pupil absence. Are all of your staff double vaccinated . Yes. But youre still concerned about the prospect of them getting sick . Im concerned about them. As you know, if you do Test Positive for covid, you do still have to self isolate. So they wont be able to come into work. And as we know, some people might get ill from this but even being off for ten days, which you need to do if you contract the virus, even if you only get it mildly, that will disrupt schools. But that sounds like a problem that is literally never going to go away. Because schools have to go back. It is a fact of life, as you say, that people will catch the virus even though theyre double vaccinated, but hopefully wont be ill enough to go to hospital. So what are you suggesting will be done about that . Well, i think that the Isolation Measures that we had before where we could ask people not to come in would stop the virus ripping Through schools. I guess what were worried about is that there will be a huge spike in schools so september will be disrupted. Paul gosling. Nhs organisations in england have been told to prepare for a possible decision about whether all 12 to 15 year olds will be offered a vaccination. No decision has officially been made, but Thejoint Committee on vaccination and immunisation is continuing to review data on broadening the roll out. The government said it is also continuing to prepare for a Booster Programme to ensure those most vulnerable to covid 19 have their protection against the virus extended ahead of winter. The us president has accused china of withholding key information on the origins of the coronavirus. Mr biden said chinese officials blocked the work of international experts a Claim Beijing denies. The comments come after a three Month Investigation by american Intelligence Agencies failed to agree on whether the virus is more likely to have stemmed from exposure to an infected animal, or an accident at a laboratory in the chinese city of wuhan. The headlines on bbc news. The us military says one of its drones has taken out an islamic State Group planner, following Thursdays Attack which killed as many as 170 people at Kabul Airport. Meanwhile, the uks evacuation in afghanistan reaches its final stages the head of britains Armed Forces told the bbc the number of people left behind would be in the high hundreds. A recipe for covid Chaos Government plans for schools are criticised by Education Unions who fear a rise in the number of coronavirus infections. Lets take a look at whats happening at the paralympics in tokyo. Its day four, and 56 medals have been up for grabs and a british Husband And Wife have each broken the World Record in their respective cycling events. Lora fachie secured her gold winning achievementjust half an hour after her spouse, neil seen here set a new record in the Mens B 1,000 metres time trial. China are celebrating after liu cuiqing won the womens 400 metres in the t11 category. And, dutch Athlete Fleurjong broke the World Record in the long Jump T64 with a leap of 6 metres 16 centimetres. 0ur Correspondent in tokyo told us there was now a new golden couple at the games. There absolutely is, and for them both to go on the same day and both win a Gold Medal and break World Records isjust something that most people just wouldnt believe had happened, including themselves. They actually feared this day would never come because both of them have had problems before at paralympic games, missing out on Gold Medals, and they felt that might happen again here in tokyo, but it didnt. They performed their absolute best and are bringing home Gold Medals for great britain. And also at the velodrome, a World Record was set in the Team Sprint and that was kadeena cox, jaco van gass, and jody cundy. They broke that World Record and got another Gold Medal for great britain. For more on the paralympics go to our website.

Hurricane ida has brought Heavy Rain and winds to western cuba as it heads into the gulf of mexico. The us national Hurricane Center says ida is likely to be an extremely dangerous major hurricane when it makes landfall in louisiana. Gail maclellan reports. Winds at 80mph and torrential rain, the western coast of Cuba The First place Hurricane Ida makes landfall. Flash floods and mudslides also expected injamaica and the cayman islands. But this is not ida at her worst. Shes expected to become extremely dangerous when she hits the Southern United States this weekend. Its going to travel over some extraordinarily warm water, over an area we call the loop current. It basically is a superhighway of incredibly warm water all the way to the shores of louisiana, and along the way, thats just going to feed energy into the storm and theyre expecting rapid intensification of the storm. Right now, it is 80 miles per hour. Well, they expect it to come onto the shores of louisiana with winds of 140mph, making it a category 4 hurricane. Ida will arrive 16 years to the day since hurricane katrina hit, when 80 of New Orleans was flooded and almost 2,000 people lost their lives. Hurricane ida is not expected to cause such devastation. Though the winds will be stronger, the wall of water is not expected to be as high as that that submerged the city in 2005. But the authorities in New Orleans are not taking any chances. At this time, i will be and i am calling for mandatory evacuation of all areas outside of our levee protection system. All areas outside of our levee protection system, definitely mandatory evacuation. Some in areas protected by levees are staying put. But in the path of the storm, theyre preparing for the worst.

A shortage of Lorry Drivers has led to Fast Food Chains like mcdonalds, kfc and nandos Running Out of popular products but the Business Secretary has rejected calls for Immigration Rules to be temporarily loosened to ease the problem. Instead, Kwasi Kwarteng wants employers to use incentives like new Training Schemes and higher salaries to attract uk based workers. Our business correspondent, katy austin, reports. So, this is the last hatch of the season and these chicks are going out to farmers Throughout the whole country. This Turkey Producer in essex hatches chicks for other farmers and rears 32,000 to sell to butchers for christmas, but to pluck and prepare the turkeys, they need 100 extra workers who used to come in from eastern europe. Because of brexit, we dont have that guaranteed labour that weve had for the past 30 years. The brits dont want to do that six week seasonal work at christmas. The bigger companies that supply all the supermarkets, they have made the decision to cut their production by between 20 and 25 , which is huge. So, there will absolutely be a shortage of quality british turkeys. Paul is among those who want a Visa Scheme to help plug the worker gap. Other areas of Meat Production are also having problems. For example, Pig Farmers are struggling because some Pork Processing plants dont have enough staff. They can take in as many pigs as they normally would. These pigs are backing up on farms to the tune of around 70,000, and thats increasing by 15,000 a week. The impact is on the welfare of those animals that are kept on farms and also on the profitability of the farmers looking after those animals. Food Industry Trade bodies say theres now a chronic Labour Shortage across the whole Supply Chain. This business grows imports and distributes fresh fruit and veg. Theres everything here from carrots to pomegranates and a lot of it ends up in High Street restaurants, but here at this Distribution Centre theyre 20 short of staff. The boss says a real crisis is brewing. Its going to get worse before it gets better, definitely. And what the whole industry is really concerned about is from september, i when the schools come back and the office workers come back, i and were going to start seeing more Supermarket Shelves empty, Restaurant Plates empty. And then the big concern ongoing from that is christmas. He support calls for a temporary Visa Scheme to bring in Food Workers and Lorry Drivers from europe. Isnt it more important to build a sustainable workforce from within the uk and, ultimately, pay them more . Im more than happy to do that, but the british public are going to have to accept that if were going to increase pay. And working conditions i to attract british workers, then were going to havel to pay more for our food. If the era of cheap labour is over, so, too, is the era of cheap food. Food businesses put Worker Shortages down to a perfect storm of structural issues, Brexit Changes and the pandemic. The government says the Supply Chain is resilient and it wants to see employers invest in the domestic workforce, but some firms are getting increasingly worried about their ability to keep our shelves and plates full.

Lots of us enjoy feeding the birds in our gardens but are we doing more harm than good with Bird Feeders . New evidence suggests that supplementary feeding could disrupt a delicate ecological balance beyond our windowsills and gardens. 0ur Science Correspondent Victoria Gill reports. A welcome dose of nature on our doorsteps, Window Ledges in the uk, we spend more than £250 million every year on food for our feathered friends but theres a limited number of familiar Resident Species that eat the thousands of tonnes of peanuts, seeds and suet that we put out for the birds. And scientists now say that this constant supply of Supplementary Food could have boosted the population of those species at the expense of others. An ongoing rise in the population of Great Tits and blue tits, for example, could be costly for some of the birds that we dont often see in our gardens. 0ur Worry as ecologists is that by providing, sort of, unlimited food for species like blue and Great Tits, we impact upon the species which compete with blue and Great Tits. So, there are two other species of tits, which many people might not have heard of. 0nes called a marsh tit, another� s called the willow tit, and both of them are amongst the fastest declining birds in the uk. And, sort of, blue and Great Tits are species that we call dominant species, whereas Marsh And Willow tits are subordinate species. So, basically in battles for Food And Nest sites, its the blue and Great Tits that come out on top. More research is needed to understand whether and where we should be providing extra food for wild birds. In cities, for example, the lack of other natural food sources means that species like House Sparrows have come to depend on feeders. But something these scientists say might do more ecological good is if those of us who are lucky enough to have gardens let them grow wild and plant native fruits and berries. Creating our own little piece of habitat, they say, could well provide a haven for many more species than hanging out a bird feeder. Victoria gill, bbc news. Now its time for a look at the weather with 0wain Wyn evans. Hello, hello everyone. I do hope youre doing all right. Now, over the next couple of days, we arejoined by an area of High Pressure, which for most of us, well lead to dry, settled conditions. Lets have a quick look at the headline there we go. I think most of us will see both of these things the Dry Weather and the sunny spells. Its not a completely clear cut story, however, and, of course, for many of us, its a bank holiday weekend. So all eyes on the Weather Forecast as far as that goes. You can see this gap in the cloud here on the satellite image. Thats because of the High Pressure. Its keeping these Weather Fronts away, keeping areas of low pressure at bay and it will continue to do so over the next couple of days. Lets have a look at the finer detail, then. Breezy across south Eastern Parts of england. We may catch the odd shower here as well. Dry for most of us. Any Mist And Fog patches will continue to lift and clear Through this afternoon. The exception, i think, being across parts of northern ireland, Western Coastal Parts of scotland in particular, some low cloud, Mist And Fog will linger here. There we go quick look at the winds there. And, you know, were in a relatively mild Air Mass at the moment, so temperatures probably getting to around 20 or 21 celsius at best, cooler where we see that cloud, and, of course, breezier along the south eastern coast in particular. Now Through this evening well see the return of some low cloud, some Mist And Fog as well, especially across parts of northern ireland, scotland. This will want to, kind of, extend down as well into northern parts of england. Not as chilly as last night, however, with our Lows Tonight 11 or 12 celsius. So lets return to the Pressure Chart theres the high, still with us for now and for the next couple of days. It is shifting a little bit further towards the west, however, and that will draw in a bit more of a breeze along those Eastern Coastal Parts. And on that breeze, i think, well tend to see a bit more in the way of cloud cover. So, west is best, i think, as far as any sunny spells are concerned. The south west, parts of wales, the North West of england, up towards cumbria as well, potentially seeing more in the way of that brightness and sunshine. But sunny spells elsewhere, i think, and tomorrows top temperatures, quite similar to today, really, 20, 21 maybe, at a push, 22 celsius. Now the High Pressure is in no hurry to leave us. You can see the winds swirling around it like this in a clockwise fashion. So that will continue to draw in a bit of cloud over the next couple of days and a feeling of it being cooler along coastal parts, Eastern Coastal Parts in particular, but it is a dry, settled story for most of us. Well keep you posted. Stay safe. See you soon
