Germany has recorded more than 100,000 covid deaths a Milestone Other Western European countries, including the uk and france, passed several months ago. Europe is the epicentre of the crisis, according to the World Health Organization, as a surge in cases across the continent pushes politicians to introduce a raft of new restrictions.

But despite the visible anger, new measures to combat rising cases across france are expected to be unveiled on thursday. And even though rioting erupted during a partial lockdown in the netherlands at the weekend, right measures there are likely to get stricter on friday. It all comes as the World Health Organization warns that covid is unlikely to be beaten by vaccines alone despite jabs saving large numbers of people across europe as it fears what it calls the continents top cause of death could still claim hundreds of thousands more lives. As europe grapples with a rising cases, of course, in germany, new leadership is forming in terms of the government there and we also have a treaty being discussed between france and italy. That will all be unpacked in more detail in our Business Coverage in around 20 minutes time. But for now lets get some of the days of the news.

A jury in the us State Of Georgia has found three white men guilty of Murdering A Black Man as hejogged In The City Of Brunswick last year. The killing of Ahmaud Arbery along with that of George Floyd In Minneapolis helped inspire the black lives matter movement. The three men claimed they were defending themselves while trying to perform a citizens� arrest on mr arbery who they said � looked like a burglar�. Our correspondent Aleem Maqbool reports. 0433. There have been times when this moment seemed a very distant prospect. We the jury find the defendant, travis mcmichael, guilty. 0h, woo the shout of relief came from the father of Ahmaud Arbery, who was shot dead in february of last year. Two others were also found guilty of murder. They� d all seen 25 year old ahmaud running through their neighbourhood and claimed he� d fitted the description of a crime suspect. They chased him and killed him. During the trial, the man who fired the fatal shots, travis mcmichael, was the only one of the three to take to the witness stand. I shot him. Why . He. He had my gun. He struck me. It was obvious that he was. It was obvious that he was attacking me. That if he would� ve got the shotgun from me, then it was a life or death situation. His justification was that he killed in self defence, but of course that was only after he, his father and a neighbour had chased Ahmaud Arbery in their pick up Trucks Forfive minutes. Ahmaud� s family waited more than ten weeks and had to rely on public pressure for the police to even make any arrests. I never thought this day would come. But god is good. Yes, he is. And i just want to tell everybody, thank you thank you, for those who marched, those who prayed most of all the ones who prayed. Yes, lord. Thank you, god. Thank you. There may still be questions about the way the police behaved after this killing. Questions about the underlying issues surrounding race in this society that contributed to the killing. But for now at least, all of those who for months have been Calling Forjustice for Ahmaud Arbery, there is just a huge sense of relief. Aleem maqbool, bbc news, in brunswick, georgia. Dr rashawn ray is a Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution who specializes in Criminal Justice and race in American Public policy and he� s been reacting to the verdict. I think for many people they think that thejury i think for many people they think that the jury got it right and i think that is something that is key here. The jury something that is key here. The jury was highly slanted. In the county in georgia with this case took place about 30 of resident as a black but only one of the 12 resident as a black but only one of the i2jurors resident as a black but only one of the 12 jurors was black. So people were worried about that the bottom line is this, Video Evidence matters. Oversight from the state and at the federal level matters and those of the key factors in the outcome of this particular case. We know that it took roughly two months before charges were brought forward. The original District Attorney, one of them, two of them ended up one of them, two of them ended up being removed, one of them is currently being charged with corruption and that has to do with the fact that the District Attorney ordered the Police Department not to bring charges forward. It was only after the Video Evidence surfaced that charges were brought forward and we know that the jury watched the video at least three times at the end of the trial, suggesting that that was a key piece of evidence that they relied upon to make their decision.

Hello, i� m gavin ramjaun. And this is your update from the bbc sport centre. Several teams in europe sealed their spot in the knockouts of the Champions League on wednesday, among them manchester city. The english side Group Winners after coming from behind to beat paris saint germain. The first half was goalless at the etihad stadium, with Kylian Mbappe firing the french side into the lead five minutes after the re start. But city turned it round with goals from Raheem Sterling and gabrieljesus to secure a 2 1 win and top spot in group a. Psg are also through because of results elsewhere. Generally we make a really top performance. Happy to be next days, of course. Congratulation to the team, everyone in the club. For many years in the row being there. And for the last 16. Now focusing on the Premier League and in february we try to arrive in the best position as possible to go to quarterfinals. So city win group a, with a game to spare. Psg still qualify for the last 16 despite that loss, courtesy of leipzig� s big win in bruges, ended the belgians� hopes of finishing in the top two. In group b. Liverpool made it five wins out of five, beating porto. But milan� s late winner against atletico means any of the others there could sneak through. Ajax and Sporting Lisbon are through in group c. And the giants of group d, real madrid, and inter milan progress, with wins from their respective matches. The former World Snooker champion shaun murphy said amateurs should not be allowed in professional tournaments. He made his comments after losing 6 5 to the chinese Amateur Si Jia Hui in the first round of the uk championship in york. Because of the pandemic, a number of the players have been unable to travel to the tournament and six amateurs were invited to ensure a field of 128. World snooker say they disagree with murphy� s comments, but he stands by them. I have seen today how this story has blown up and it� s still trending and all the rest of it. It� s madness, really, from my point of view. But for me there has to be a line. You know, if there is no distinction between the pro tours and amateur tours, let� s just have one big tour then. And i think amateurs, very good amateurs, by the way, standing in front of them potentially being banana skins for professional players who earn their living this way is a problem. Golf, and the final event on the ladies European Tour gets under way in spain on thursday. The women� s spanish open marks the end of the year long race to the costa del sol, which determines the European Tour� s order of merit.

It� s been a really good year for me this year, because the first year pro season and also for my country. They have achieved a lot this year. Hopefully it is allowed to be good here in spain. It is my first time in spain. It is my first time in spain. Now the weather is really good and hopefully the sun shines every day. You can get all the latest sports news at our website that� s bbc.

Ill i� ll be back with all the Top Business Stories next. Stay with us. Hello. Some pretty lively Weather Conditions on the way to us later in the week and into the start of the weekend. We could see some severe gales develop quite widely, particularly through friday into saturday. And to go with it, a realfeel of winter in the air much, much colder with more of you seeing a little bit of sleet or even snow. That colder air pushing southwards overnight into the start of thursday, and that really makes for the chill for the first of the commutes of the day, temperatures widely at or just above freezing. So, frost in places, maybe just frost free in the south east corner where the overnight cloud and patchy drizzle just about to clear, and in the far north of scotland overnight, heavy showers continuing with sleet and snow, even down to sea level. They� ll continue throughout the day, a few showers down across eastern coastal counties of england, one or two to the west of wales, cornwall and across northern ireland. But for most of you, thursday is one of those crisp, clear days, good visibility, but a chilly feel in the breeze, temperatures around 5 to 8 degrees. Now, as we go into thursday night, temperatures actually lift a little bit. Outbreaks of rain spreading their way in, from the north and the west, but strengthening winds across the board. That will stop temperatures from falling to freezing here, but there could be a frost to start friday, east anglia and the south east in particular. But even here, we� ll See Rain Push through on friday. This is the area of low pressure that� s going to cause us all sorts of problems. The exact track will dictate who sees the strongest of the winds and who will see a bit of snow. To begin friday, it� s outbreaks of Rain Spreading Southwards and eastwards. The strongest of the winds to the north and the west of the country could touch damaging 70, maybe 80mph for one or two later in the day, and blizzard conditions developing across parts of Higher Ground of scotland. And this is where we� ll see the strongest of the winds really late friday and into friday night, pushing down the western side of this area of low pressure. Cold air with it, so a mixture of rain, sleet and snow notjust to the hills, one or two to lower levels, but it� s going to be a difficult mix to get exactly right. Keep checking the forecast. But it could be a night of disruption into the start of saturday with strong winds. More wintry showers around on saturday, an icy wind and an added wind chill too. So, whilst temperatures on the Thermometers Saturday Afternoon Say a to 7 degrees, already lower than normally expected at this stage of november, it will feel closer to freezing, if not below for many of you. Things will turn quieter, though, through saturday night into sunday. Widespread frost to begin the day, but for most, it� ll be a dry day with some spells of hazy sunshine.
