from the bela rusian from the belarusian side, migrants started throwing rocks and bricks and branches towards the polish horses and it is a scene of chaos here 7 forces. and just how dangerous was a russian missile test for the international space station? it's been condemned by washington but moscow says the debris poses �*no threat". here in the uk, the former yorkshire cricketer azeem rafiq has given harrowing evidence to mps about how he was bullied and racially abused at the club. and he accused english cricket of institutional racism. just to warn you, some of the details are upsetting. pretty early on, me and other people from asian backgrounds, there are comments such as you lots it over there, nearthe comments such as you lots it over there, near the toilets. therejust seems to be an acceptance in the institution from the leaders and no one ever stamped it out. azeem rafiq was speaking to the digital, culture, media and sport select committee. and this is why. in 2020 he went public with allegations of racism he experienced while a player during two spells at yorkshire, from 2008 to 2014 and again from 2016 to 2018. this prompted a 12—month investigation by the club. the subsequent report found that he was a victim of "racial harassment and bullying". but the club said that no one would be disciplined. when i spoke, i should've been listened to. but the game as a whole really has a problem and listening to the victim and it's been yet, but, yeah, but. but there is no yeah, but to racism. there's no two sides to a story when it comes to racism. one of the most controversial elements of yorkshire's report, was its conclusion that the use of certain racist terms was "banter". here's the ceo of the race equality foundation. equally shocking and perhaps even more _ equally shocking and perhaps even more shocking at the response of the yorkshire _ more shocking at the response of the yorkshire cricket club as well as the establishment as a

and the consequences is that they've made the original injury— that they've made the original injury much worse as a result. at times the testimony was emotional. azeem rafiq explained that �*inhuman treatment�* from the club, following the stillborn death of his son in 2017, forced him to speak out. ijust i just carried my son from the hospital to the graveyard and how i'm getting treated here is not right and to me, it became very clear that even myself, i had been looking the other way and there is a real problem here. notjust in yorkshire, throughout the country and i'm going to be the one who's going to speak about this. one of the people at the heart of this row is roger hutton. he stepped down as yorkshire chair over the handling of azeem rafiq's claims of institutional racism — and he's also appeared this morning before the mps�* committee. he was asked if the club is instututionally racist. the report concluded there was insufficient evidence, the panel concluded there was

team—mate used it as a derogatory term to refer to any player of colour in this was an open secret in the dressing room. but another one called his dog kevin because it was black, a disgusting joke.

not remember it but does shows how normal it was in that environment, in that institution. he also asked about former england captain michael vaughan who strongly denied the whistle—blowers claims since corroborated by two other cricket players that he made a racist remark towards the asian players. racist remark towards the asian -la ers. , , . ., racist remark towards the asian nlaers. , ,.

but within the english game and he thought it was and his experiences of being replicated up and down the country and describe the skill of the issue is scary. the new chairman of yorkshire said that from his conversations with other county chairman, he also believes this to be a game wide issue that requires a game wide approach. we have heard of other counties embroiled in this crisis. notably essex, whose chairman resigned last friday over allegations he'd used racist language and a board meeting we have since heard from two former ethics players who have or alleged racist abuse of the clubs and they found the testimony to be harrowing and distressing and have committed to taking action. we know that the ecb, the english and wales cricket board have learned a litany of lessons from

everything that they've heard in the written evidence as well. we know there are reviews going on into the whole scandal in yorkshire, but also across the game by the ecb yorkshire. i know that more organisations are looking into this as well, so we expect this to be forthcoming in the next few months and there is an independent commission looking into equity in cricket that has recently launched a call for evidence but also on this day, it is become clear that the work that english cricket needs to do, and peace say the reputation of cricket seems to be on the floor and clearly, the recovery mission will take some time as both yorkshire, the other counties and the ecb look to rebuild their reputation and address the concern dressing room culture that azeem rafiq spoke so powerfully above. if you look at azeem rafiq himself, what will happen to him? he said he will continue to hold the game to account. he says he hopes that they will look back on this in five years and see that whilst his career was lost to racism in his eyes, that he has done something much bigger than score runs and take wickets in this change the game for the better. violence has broken out at the belarus border with poland, as groups of migrants tried to cross illegally into the european union. thousands are stuck there in freezing conditions these pictures give you a sense of the chaos. some migrants threw stones. polish police responded with tear gas and water cannon. they say migrants tried to break down a razor wire fence that poland has erected to keep them out. we also have this footage filmed by the bbc — more chaos. polish police say at least 7 officers have been injured in the clashes. polish police are also accusing belarusian forces of supplying migrants with stun grenades. 0ur correspondent steve rosenberg was on the belarus side of the border as this was playing out. these are polish water cannons and they being employed because around midday here, on the border, on the belarusian side, my grin started throwing rocks and bricks and branches towards the polish forces and as you can see, is a scene of chaos which is continuing here. and it feels very much like a preplanned provocation. it's hard to breathe because pepper gas, pepper spray has been deployed to. it looks of the provocation. it seems the decision has been made on the side of the border to try to exact response from over there. border to try to exact response from overthere. from border to try to exact response from over there. from poland, from the eu and as you can see, more water cannons being used. cones being thrown, more rocks and branches. in many ways, this picture that we are seeing come of this image is very much the picture that alexander lukashenko, was to transmit to the world and belarus is been trying to destroy towards europe and seeing it as an uncompassionate entity. in these kind of scenes could develop here and certainly, belarus will try to betray that image of europe to the world. poland's defence ministry tweeted this: "the migrants attacked our soldiers and officers with stones and are trying to they also say belarusian border guards — dressed in civilian clothes, were taking part in the attack. we can't confirm that. however belarus also accuses poland of mistreating migrants. this is playing out at the kuz—nica border crossing. on one side is poland — an eu member — the other side is belarus — which isn't. and stranded in the middle are thousands of migrants — trying to reach the european union. also at the border today was the eu's high commissioner for human rights. will make the situation is complex and problematic. we can see rare will make the situation is complex and problematic. we can see we can see enormous _ and problematic. we can see we can see enormous suffering _ and problematic. we can see we can see enormous suffering of— and problematic. we can see we can see enormous suffering of people i and problematic. we can see we can l see enormous suffering of people who are left in limbo and it is absolutely unacceptable belarus is doing and how the people are manipulated. at the same time, i feel that we need to step aside and think, what is happening at the european border? why are these people left in limbo? the eu says the belarusian president alexander lukashenko is instigating the crisis, accusing him of luring migrants to minsk and pushing them to the border with poland. the situation for migrants is dire. thousands have been camped out in make—shift tents in freezing conditions for over a week now. at least 8 migrants have died from hypothermia. this is the assessment of a charity helping the migrants. the boundary of poland is expanded from kilometres and those smashed across the border, they're walking through that forested area and in those columbus, especially during night, when the temperatures at the lowest, there are multiple cases of hypothermia. the durations of pre—existing conditions and their various cases of trauma and very often, the medical teams, such as the one that we are running through the one that we are running through the ambulance, we are seeing distress calls from the middle—of—the—road, sometimes you have to track for 3040 minutes to reach the people. and saving lives, saving the wellbeing of anybody in this area is of utmost concern because during wintertime, poland records about 50 people freezing to death every winter. so, i can only sympathise with people were coming from other countries were not accustomed to those conditions and either expose them to this during the wintertime. the apparent escalation on the border happened as there were signs of de—escalation between the eu and president lukashenko. on monday alexander lukashenko held a rare phone call with the german chancellor angela merkel, we say rare because it was his first contact with a western leader since he cracked down on protests against his disputed presidential election victory last year. with that crackdown came eu sanctions. more followed on monday. so, that's the backdrop to the phone call. here's president lukashenko's assessment of how it went. translation: we agreed that this escalation was not in anyone s interests, neither the eu or belarus and that we cannot allow this escalation to continue to the point of violent confrontation. we also agreed that we would be in constant contact until this problem is resolved. we will discuss this issue again in the nearfuture. so, some optimism in finding a way out of the crisis. we know the migrants have mostly come from the middle east. we also know many of them were promised safe passage and an easy route into the eu. here's steve rosenberg on the border again on their options now. we did ask a lot of the migrants today, what are they going to do in this situation? where they going to go now�*s as you can see, there are a lot of people still camping out here, confused about the situation. some said they want to go back to minsk and they plan to go back to minsk and they plan to go back to minsk where they go home? within macon another attempt ? will they make another attempt. they've been camping out for more than a week, they are hungry and many of them are desperate. the ugandan capital — kampala — is on high alert following two explosions which killed 6 people including the attackers. it's the latest in a number of attacks in the city which have been blamed on a foreign armed group. the first of these attacks happened when a suicide bomber targeted the police headquarters in the centre of kampala. this cctv footage shows the moment just after the blast. we know two people died in this attack. three minutes later, three other attackers on motorbikes blew themselves up near the ugandan parliament less than 1 kilometre away. this was the scene outside. cars on fire, windows shattered. we're told more bombs were found in other parts of the city. we're also told that a fourth attacker was also arrested and an explosive vest recovered. here's the mayor of kampala central. i'm fortunate to see. i've lost one of my friends, a police officer. and the police will come and give more information about that but it's been very unfortunate. it's happening at such a time or trying to go back to her normal livelihoods and so, if these people can come at such a princess of police, and set off a bomb, the you know things are not good. 33 people were injured in these attacks — 5 of them critically. security has been put on high alert. proceedings in parliament have been called off and mps are being advised not to come into the building. the group accused of this is allied democratic forces, it's based in neighbouring dr congo, and it's thought to be behind two similar attacks in kampala last month. here's the police. the attack clearly indicates that they are a radicalised group and they are a radicalised group and they have a desire to carry out lethal attacks using suicide attackers and explosive devices and behind these attacks. the nature of the bombs they are using and the nature of the attacks is the strategy. the adf is a notorious islamist group —— however some of its attacks recently have been claimed in the name of another notorious group, the islamic state. while we've been on air the i—s group has said it carried out today's attacks in kampala. the bbc�*s patience atu—haire is in kampala. it is shocking, especially for these particular area because this is a highly policed area. we understand some of the people who have been injured in this explosion were policemen we have seen pictures of some of them in the hospital, and still under uniform. it is a highly policed area, so it is very shocking that these explosions can happen in an area but there is a lot of security, more than any regular day, so there's a lot of talk on social media in uganda about what this means and the system is less than a month after two explosions last month after two explosions last month in different parts of the country, including in one part of the area. so it's very shocking. western countries have condemned russia for blowing up a satellite in a missile test. the missile was fired at a defunct russian satellite from the 1980's — and blowing it up created thousands of pieces of space debris — which now could threaten other satellites and the international space station. we know the crew had to shelter in capsules because of the missile. nato had this to say about it. this was a reckless act by russia. nato has developed a space policy, to address the challenges we see in space and nato will not what the nice space. the us also called out the strike. this jeopardises the long—term sustainability of our cover of space and clearly demonstrates that russia's claims of opposing the weaponisation of space are disingenuous. this was the russian foreign minister's response to the claim that russia is being an aggressor in space. translation: to declare the russian federation declares that there are no facts. on that point about hypocrisy — it's true that oher countries, as well as russia, have also blown up satellites in a missile test. the us last fired such a missile in 2008 when they destroyed an old intelligence satellite and china knocked out an old weather satellite in 2007. india also has the capability. in this case, the debris from the explosion passed the international space station without incident. but space junk can pose a danger for years to come. after six decades of space missions, there are now around a million objects orbiting the planet. an impact from anyone of these could destroy a satellite that it hits. this former nasa engineer explains the problems caused by this russian test. it borders on terrorism to a certain extent because you're just wantonly blowing something up with the fragments going they wish and it is a threat that will continue to bother people for years. every time you do this, it is a decade—long risk or longer. i got the reaction from juliana suess, research analyst from the royal united services institute. the initial reaction from this are also for myself that this was very responsible and it not only put the international space station but also the chinese space station at risk. although the russians have a long—term involvement in international space stations, so they believe the risk was not particularly great. the russian s - ace particularly great. the russian space agency _ particularly great. the russian space agency from _ particularly great. the russian space agency from moscow . particularly great. the russian . space agency from moscow slated particularly great. the russian - space agency from moscow slated that they had left the orbit which meant that there was no longer a risk but the initial risk was great enough that the measures were taken and replacing the hatches and going through that would allow them to go through that would allow them to go through them if there was an emergency if they actually were damaged in the process of going through or approaching the field. tell me more about the technology that they were looking to test when they did this? the that they were looking to test when they did this?— they did this? the test was on monday was — they did this? the test was on monday was the _ they did this? the test was on monday was the direct - they did this? the test was on monday was the direct missile meaning it was launched from the ground and the text is nothing new, china tested one and 2007 on one of their own satellites, which created thousands of debris pieces. and as a testament of how dangerous and long—lasting this can be is that this dodged one of those pieces from 14 years ago on the last week. the us showed a similar capability in 2008 during the operation and also carried out a satellite test in 2019, the blood of the american and the indian tests have less to breed in the chinese tests in 2007 and it is test that we have seen. the russians have performed tests in recent years and demonstrate the capabilities of from greatest lunches as well as space—based systems. ? crown based. and us space with nondestructive test the to place them. you can find more reports from me and the team, elsewhere on the bbc. if you re

well. good evening. we have been spoiled for much of november so far with temperatures well above average for the time of year. we have got some cold weather on the cards eventually. as we had in the next week. the here and now, this is the picture on tuesday and draw the room with a lot of cloud around there and another mild day and actually the mild thing continues for the next few days. it will be one or two showers in the forecast particularly across the north and northwest of the uk with other fronts trying to push and put the high pressures of herfar push and put the high pressures of her far away with the southwest into the east there as well. quite a lot of dry weather as we head through the course of tonight, particularly across england and wells but turning to dissipate and clearing the skies, there will be more showers for the north and a breeze across scotland and northern ireland. a little bit of a winter flavour to some of the showers of the highest ground, some sleep and some hail mixed in. it could be a touch of frost for easter parts of scotland in northeast england which is generally frost free but a bit fresh start to some of the showers of the highest

several degrees above average for this time of year. heading onto wednesday night and into thursday now, the weather for and still brings my bricks of rain and blustery conditions to the north of scotland but highway whether keeping things dry but it is going to be mild yet again with the ones coming in from the south westerly direction. a lot of cloud in the best luncheon will be found across southern and eastern parts and with a bit of a furlough effect, the winds will blow of the higher ground we could see temperatures for the use of scotland, 16 or 17 celsius. about 10 degrees above average for one or two spots. so, very much mild there's going to be the straight for there's going to be the straight for the next few days and a hoarding on through to saturday as well, but then you'll notice the blue colours returning with these northerly winds heading on into sunday. so, still a couple more days of that very mob largely dry and settled weather and in time to dig out the winter coat because things are turning colder for sunday into next week. bye—bye. hello, i'm ros atkins, this is outside source. former yorkshire cricketer azeem rafiq reveals the full extent of the racism he says he faced at the english club. appearing before mps at westminster — the 30 year old gave a harrowing account of the impact it had had on him and said racist language was used "constantly" during his time at yorkshire. there just seems to be an acceptance in the institution from the leaders and no one ever stamped it out. after days of political pressure uk prime minister boris johnson says rules around mps' extra jobs should be tightened up. and first interview by myanmar�*s military since the coup in february: an army spokesman talks exclusively to the bbc. and just how dangerous was a russian missile test for the international space station? it's been condemned by washington but moscow says the debris poses �*no threat". the uk prime minister borisjohnson has proposed a ban on mps acting as paid political lobbyists. if follows the recent row over the lobbying work of the former mp owen paterson and the government's initial attempts to delay him being punished. the plan would see the code of conduct for mps so that mps are banned from accepting paid work as "political or parliamentary consultants or advisors". that would have applied to the £112,000 that owen paterson received from a medical company and food producer. it would also see mps investigated — and "appropriately punished" if they are found to be "prioritising outside interests over their constituents". likely to come under scrutiny would be sir geoffrey cox who spent several several weeks working as a lawyer in the caribean while parliament was sitting. mrjohnson announced his new proposals on standards just as the labour leader sir keir starmer and his deputy angela rayner began a press conference setting out their pa rty�*s plan. i will take the questions, but apparently the prime minister has just written to the media saying mp should be banned from acting as strategists or advisers... is in should be banned from acting as strategists or advisers... is in the vote tomorrow _ strategists or advisers... is in the vote tomorrow already? - the store has quite a few questions. one rule is for me is whether they were prioritising his constituents, how they assess that because of the devil will be in the details. the detail will be up to the house of commons. this is what the government is saying come in the prime minister has written to say he believes this is the basis on which you could put in this new system and actually some recommendations from a report produced in 2018 by the committee of standards in public life. the detail about things like what is a reasonable amount of time to spend on outside activity would have to be decided by mps by the house of commons. and that is where all of the tumour we are going to see these sort of debates about what constitutes a reasonable amount of time to be spent away from your activities, what is not prioritising your constituents so there was sort of details we need to be thrashed out. the prime minister put out his plan about the same time and labour it was announcing their plan, is there a big difference between the two? ., , there a big difference between the two? . , . ., , ., two? the

recognition that the speaker of the house has said to me, it's been a disaster for parliament. the house has said to me, it's been a disasterfor parliament. the need house has said to me, it's been a disaster for parliament. the need to do some to toughen the rules. in terms of how they differ, labour have been calling for this ban on paid jobs as consultants from a paid advisers, that's also what the government is calling for here. labour has been talking about looking in a wider ban on second jobs, of course we should say there's some mps in parliament who do things like they are qualified doctors or nurses. and they will spend time working away from parliament in those roles. they don't want to ban those sort of things but talking about may widening the scope of things. the government is saying they're focusing on this amount of time that can be spent away from parliament or working any sort of outside activity. if you look at what recommends they say any outside activity whether

military government in myanmar has brought new charges against the ousted civilian leader aung san suu kyi. it's now alleged that she committed electoral fraud during last year's election. let's remind you of the context. the military seized power in myanmar during a coup in february this year. that brought to an end 10 years of democracy there. since then, several thousand people have been detained and more than one thousand people have been killed.aung san suu kyi has already been charged with sedition and corruption. on tuesday, state media reported she was facing this additional charge. and there are also now concerns for her wellbeing. here's myanmar�*s military spokesman speaking about that in an exclusive interview with the bbc�*s rebecca henschke. translation: we are

february's military coup. and the military authorities have a track record of mistreating prisoners. i'll come back to that in a moment. first, here's the spokesperson of the national unity government of myanmar, a political coalition which opposes thejunta regime. she is not ok with the charge against — she is not ok with the charge against her. they have charged her with it _ against her. they

right time. and also we cannot agree with their demands. numberthree, what also we cannot agree with their demands. number three, what they say about myanmar is not constructive. when will you allow them to enter the country? translation: they need to show steps to acknowledging the existence of our government." acknowledging the existence of the military government is a sticking point. here's the un special rapporteur on the human rights situation in myanmar. this is an illegal regime in every sense. there is growing evidence of crimes against humanity being committed systematially, of course they want legiticmacy, but they are anything other than legitimate and will not be recognised as such. among the reasons for denying the regime's legitimacy, is their treatment of prisoners. just a warning — the pictures i'm about to show you are graphic. state tv showed these images of detainees with swollen faces and bruises after allegedly being beaten insidejail. and in october the associated press reported on "systemic torture across the country." here's rebecca henscke confronting the general with the account of one former prisoner. she was told by her interrogators, do you

this kind of fake news comes around. if she was tortured in prison there is a system group to complain. what did she not complain in the prison? the regime's detention of its critics has been in the spotlight recently. on monday, usjournalist danny fenster was pardoned and released from jail after originally being sentenced to 11 yearss. and on tuesday he arrived back in the us. so i'm going to take time to celebrate and spend time with my fanrity _ celebrate and spend time with my family. and then, you know, continue concentrating on all of the other notjust— concentrating on all of the

(sting) now to kenya where security services are on high alert after three convicted terrorists escaped from of the country's most secure prison. seven prison wardens have now been arrested — and kenya's borders are being monitored. detectives are investigating how people described as dangerous escaped from the kamiti maximum prison — kenya s most guarded detention facility about 20 kilometres northeast of nairobi. in a statement, the interior secretary fred matiang said investigators have formed initial opinions that the prison break was a result of incompetence and laxity. more arrests and prosecutions could follow. the 3 escapees included a man serving 41 years jail time for his role in the 2015 garissa university attack where close to 150 people were killed. another had been convicted for a foiled assault on kenya s parliament, and the other for crossing into somalia to join al shabaab. a countrywide, multi—agency manhunt is underway, the nature of the investigations show that this would have been an issue of incompetence. that is not enough especially for kenya. and it is one where... they were convicted of murder and also social violence. and please consider to be arrests and prosecutions. tell and please consider to be arrests and prosecutions.— and please consider to be arrests and prosecutions. tell us about the men emma — and prosecutions. tell us about the men emma ferdinand. _ and prosecutions. tell us about the men emma ferdinand. where -

back to the issue? thank you for having me and good evening to l having me and good evening to everyone. exactly as you mentioned, the impeachment cleared its first test last week, we believe in a negative outcome for him remains unlikely. in this trial which is being held by congress is because of these accusations. as we speak there holding the final vote which started a few month ago. it�*s five senators short of the number required and the consensus is that they could not clear that is. of course we cannot rule out a surprise result. first the opposition government and the second is the senators in the ruling coalition, back in the removal of its own presidentjust days away of a general vote. and their reelection. mightjeopardise their chances with the conservative parties. and he�*s made both public statements about the senate throwing away the case which underpins the views about this possibility being extremely politcised from the opposition. and a degree of certainty about this. even if felt ultimately unsuccessful as a machete, with the first book taking place next sunday.— machete, with the first book taking place next sunday. presumably even if this senate — place next sunday. presumably even if this senate vote _ place next sunday. presumably even if this senate vote goes _ place next sunday. presumably even if this senate vote goes for - place next sunday. presumably even if this senate vote goes for the - if this senate vote goes for the president that he is not impeached this more broadly creates more doubts about politics at a time when many chileans already are sceptical about politics? i lost the sound. now i can. i lost the sound. nowl can. i was 'ust i lost the sound. nowl can. i was just saying _ i lost the sound. nowl can. i was just saying presumably _ i lost the sound. nowl can. i was just saying presumably whichever i lost the sound. now i can. i was- just saying presumably whichever way this vote goes it contributes to a scepticism about politics in chile? that�*s a very interesting question because as you were mentioning we believe that this process regardless of the outcome will have an impact on the process and the views of society and politicians. in at least two ways. in two main candidates. for left—wingers headed the polls for most of the campaign now it�*s already allowed for such are left opposition parties backing him to send a powerful message of unity to lower his house vote last week. this is especially given the runoff that will take place in late december to choose the next president in which they will need to gather everyone�*s support. polar opposite to him in the ideological term, the conservative candidate has used this attempt to oust the president to get the message of the core voters have alienated by the left demanded certainty and are reacting to this change that to the past few years in chile since the outburst of civil unrest in october 2019. of the past weeks it seems to be making gains, and that shows the polarised setting that has dominated chile and underline the generational and ideological gap. the impact of this process yes, sorry... i ideological gap. the impact of this process yes, sorry. . ._ process yes, sorry... i can listen to much growth _ process yes, sorry... i can listen to much growth is _ process yes, sorry... i can listen to much growth is because -
