Theyll face england or co hosts australia in the final in sydney on sunday. Even though they had the ball a lot, they did not create that much. I thought we had to work a lot in defence and i think we came out better in the second half but of course, losing like this and being so close to a final, it feels brutal right now. This is spanish history and that is it, its amazing. We make history playing the quarters, so to get to the final is just amazing. The players, we know how good we are, how good the team is, and we have to keep pushing. Wednesay� s 2nd semi final is expected to be a sell out at the 81,000 capacity Stadium Australia and theres Fighting Talk from both camps as austraia and england renew their Sporting Rivalry once again. Being knocked out by anyone is kind of unthinkable. Theres probably a lot of english people that would love to see us knocked out by england, but i think theres more australians that would love to see england knocked out by us. So in terms of the rivalry, again we have such big rivalries with so many different countries, so itsjust another game for us. Obviously, england are such a top team, like tony has been talking about, but we have been taking one game at a time and it seems to be working for us so far, and that will be the same tomorrow night. I asked the players and i asked staff, and for them, we dont feel that rivalry that much. The main thing is that there was a lot of rivalry in rugby and cricket, and last week in netball, so we just know it is a very competitive game. Lots of players from australia also play in the Womens Super League so they know each other really well and of course they want to beat us and we want to beat them. That is the main competitiveness we will get in front us tomorrow. He will provide competition for the england goalkeeper aaron ramsey Aaron Ramsdale at the emirates. Novak djokovic is in doubles action in cincinnati later. Its djokovics first event in the United States since 2021 due to previous Vaccine Requirements for foreign travelers. It is two years since my last tournament On American Soil so im really excited and i was looking forward to coming back to cincinnati. I have not played here since 2019 and so it has been for years.

More than 1000 people and how their data breach by norfolk and Suffolk Police forces and the personal information was included in a Freedom Of Information Request due to a technical issue. The constabularies have said the personal information was included in Freedom Of Information responses due to a technical issue. The personal data included descriptions of offences including sexual and domestic assaults. With more on this is our correspondent mark lobel who is in the newsroom. What has been released, mark . It came about because of a Freedom Of Information Request where the public demands information held by public demands information held by public authorities and that was supplied in this case, Crime Statistics from april 2021 until may last year by norfolk and Suffolk Constabulary is, Police Forces in the east of england, but they attached raw data to their replies and that affected 1230 people from which one of the senior figures in the police force has apologised. And Thatis The Police Force has apologised. And that is because the data itself should never have been released in the first place and it was not immediately apparent on the replies that were sent and the police have in fact said that they do not believe so far that there has been anything to suggest that the data has actually been accessed by anyone outside policing but they have apologised and the uk Data Watchdog is investigating this breach. All the people affected are currently being contacted by the Police Forces in question. Being contacted by the Police Forces in cuestion. ~ ,. , being contacted by the Police Forces in question being contacted by the Police Forces in cuestion. , ~ ,. , in question. Thank you very much for that. Live now to former victims commissioner for england and wales, Dame Vera Baird what is your reaction to the news . I am not comforted by them saying they do not know whether people have access to it or not and you would hardly take your Technical Advice from them. After this error. It is the second time suffolk have leaked material in a very short time. Last november at the leaked details about sexual offence victims they leaked details. Ifind it worrying and you can only think of the worst at this stage. Sexual offence complaints, if any of their names have been late, they are entitled to lifelong anonymity, and it is probably a Contempt Of Court to leak it but it is probably terrifying for women and men are to think that if they have said on the understanding that their name will never be made public, that they will give evidence about what happened to them, it is very embarrassing and quite frightening if their identities are then made known and they dont know whether they might get a visit from a friend of the defendant or what might go on. It could be anybody who is going giving evidence in any court case at all, it could be counterterrorism, drug dealers, armed robbers, there are well known cases in which the identity of people are kept secret so they have the courage to give evidence and do their duty. But if they are being made public they can be approached and they might even be frightened off giving evidence by the fear of that approach. It is im afraid in an era when there is a lot of worry about policing, yet another dimension when the public have been let down. ,. ,. , let down. These statistics were issued between let down.

They must be approached very quickly by the police. The can be . They must be approached very quickly by the police. The only quickly by the police. The only apology i have seen on your website has come from the police and crime commissioner and the police themselves now need to be galvanising to approach in the best possible way, probably through Victim Support organisations who are better at approaching victims than many others. They need to be finding out exactly what has happened, making clear exactly what has happened to the public. If they can, get that from somebody else, that there is less danger, and going out to reassure every victim that the absolute worst that could have happened, so they can then count back from it. And reassure victims. The cps might be worrying right now about whether because we are very well aware that victims of cases in 2021, 2022, probably, an average weight of three years to get to court about a rape and there are long backlogs and i dont know the precise once in norfolk and suffolk but these are live cases in which witnesses have not heard that they have been identified. The cps might be worried that they will be frightened of giving evidence and their cases may collapse. All of thatis their cases may collapse. All of that is in the ether and i understand the Information Commission is looking at it and thats the right place to start. He obviously has powers of enforcement and so on but he will find out exactly what has happened and what the extent of the danger to other people is. All of those things need to be done extremely quickly. Why clearly is notjust the police force in suffolk and norfolk but it is a bit of a deterrent far and wide, only a couple of days since the Northern Ireland Police Service disastrously published some data and now another pair of forces doing something quite similar. It is capable of damaging Public Confidence in the police and they need to repair it as fast as they can. Give reassurance about how they will deal with the data in future. David vera baird, former victims commissioner, Thanks Forjoining us Dame Vera Baird. More now from afghanistan where, two years ago today, the taliban returned to power. Since then, women and girls have faced severe restrictions including a ban on secondary education for girls.

It was a repeat of the 90s and they did not want to do that again. It was terrifying.

Like the Afghan Security forces, they were loved by everyone in afghanistan, they are in exile right now and those voices should be amplified and brought to the table.

The number of dead from hawaiis devastating wildfires has climbed to 99, with about 1,300 people still unaccounted for. From the moment the fires began, incredible images started to appear online. But how accurate are they . Shayan sardarizadeh, from bbc verify, has been taking a look. Parts of the island have been devastated but one of the worst wildfires in its history. The exact cause is unknown and under investigation but this does not mean viral misinformation has not been shared online and these are a few examples. This video has been shared and viewed.

This image has been viewed more than 3 million times and it says the wildfires were not an actual event and were caused by a massive explosion. This image is also false. We know this . We found this image of the exact same explosion posted to facebook in january 2018 and local reports said this was a controlled explosion at an oil refinery and the beam of light is in fact an optical illusion.

Wages in the uk have been growing a record pace, according to new official figures. Regular pay grew by 7. 8 betweeen april and june thats the highest annual growth rate since current records began. But pay grew by slightly less than prices in the same period. 0ur Economics correspondent andy verity reports. In skegness, this holiday park has just reopened after a big expansion and refurbishment. It has had to compete to lure 200 full time and temporary staff away from other employers, bumping up the amount it is paying them by well over 10 . To support the cost of living crisis we have had to adapt our Wage Offering and that included a 5 pay increase for all the team across haven, alongside the National Living wage and also the minimum wage. We felt thats really supported the team that most need it during this time of crisis. The average pay rise was 7. 8 in the year tojune higher than it has been in more than 20 years but still not high enough to catch up with prices. Unemployment rose slightly from li to 4. 2 but it is still low. The number of vacancies advertised has dropped by 66,000 but there are still more than a million, meaning employers have to adapt to job seekers, not the other way around. I think employers are being very flexible, which is great, because you want somebody reliable and sometimes by giving that little bit of flexibility you get the buy in more, dont you . And that person will be really reliable and turn up. People have children and different things, or health conditions, so they need varied hours. A lot of employers are really good and theyre working with those customers, which is fantastic. The economy may be barely growing but many firms are still short of the staff they need to meet demand from their customers. That is especially true of Skilled Staff like chefs. But it is also because many who were expected to come back to work after the pandemic cant because they are ill. This chart shows how many arent working or looking for work also known as economically inactive because theyre long term sick. It keeps on hitting new records. We have got to be thinking about how do we get economically inactive people into work. That needs support. It needs to be fixing the nhs waiting lists. Its got to be thinking about what the barriers are to work for those people that have disability and other sick conditions. Weve got to be thinking long term. In jobs like health and social care, 214,000 have been recruited since last year, easing what was a chronic recruitment shortage. The latest data forjuly suggests employees average pay is no longer rising quite as fast as it was in the previous figures. Signs perhaps that it is slightly easier to get the staff and slightly harder to find work. Reports from Southern Russia say an explosion at a Petrol Station has killed at least 35 people and injured dozens more. The accident happened in the capital of dagestan on the caspian sea. Pictures shared online shows the aftermath of the explosion. Local Media Reports say a fire started in an area where cars were parked. It then spread to the Petrol Station, sparking the explosion. These pictures were released by the russian emergencies ministry. Hundreds of firefighters battled to control the fire. Many of those who were injured have been flown to moscow for treatment. Now lets focus on something completely different, because celebrity Creative Directors are back in fashion and more companies are hiring famous faces to fill Executive Roles. We sent the bbc� s North America correspondent Michelle Fleury to speak to one of them in new york to find out what is driving this new trend. A warning her report contains flash photography. When you get this dark, youve got to feel your way out. Dj khaled, the grammy Award Winning music mogul with the midas touch. His latest partnership with german streetwear brand snipes saw him open a Concept Store in his hometown, miami. Lets go shopping but hes notjust the brands hype man. Hes also its chief creative officer. A title he doesnt take lightly. Why are we seeing more celebrities in Executive Roles . I mean, you got to remember, you know, people throw that name on a celebrity, which is a blessing. And im very grateful for the world to call me a celebrity. But at the same time, as you know, were visionaries too. And i think its beautiful if you think about it. Its like levels and steps of your hard work, and then you get to a certain point and, boom, look at this. Khaled got his own store. You know, lets not forget about the 35 years of hard work to get to where im at today. Given his busy schedule, though, how much can a celebrity like dj khaled really contribute . A lot, according to snipes ceo sven voth, who credits the rapper with turbo charging the companys growth in america from 65 stores to over 300. Being honest, that was a crazy move. That time when we made this deal we just had 65 doors in the us and we signed with khaled, we signed with two nba teams and everybody in the United States thought, this german guy is a little crazy because this is a little bit too much for for what it is. But i think that was the best Starting Point we could have. Its notjust me, its we. Dj khaleds role is part of an emerging trend of famous faces taking on Executive Roles. Think Pharrell Williams at Louis Vuitton or the rapper future at lava. It used to be that to sell product, youd hire a celebrity to pose with it, run some tv ads and stick their image on a giant billboard. The huge signs here part of the attraction for visitors to new yorks times square. But that was in the age before social media. You know, it started back in 2008 when instagram was invented. Vanessa friedman is the New York Times chief fashion critic. Once upon a time, we got most of our Consumer Information through magazines. As the internet allowed direct communication between brands or celebrities and consumers, that stranglehold completely opened up. Its like the floodgates opened. Sor the stars, she says, its about more than just the benjamins. For the stars, she says, its about more than just the benjamins. The actual celebrities want more input, right . They dontjust want to be a face. They dontjust want to be kind of giving their image to the brand. They want to say over what their image is connected to. The lack of on paper qualifications may feel unfair, but social media has changed the way the world sees brands. And as long as it makes the company money, the celebrity Creative Director is here to stay. Michelle fleury, bbc news, new york. Given my fashion sense, i do not think they will be asking me to be one of those stay with us here on bbc news. Hello there. What a difference a day makes. Yesterday, many places had a real deluge. Today, much drier, much brighter. Over the next few days it will turn warmer, as well, with increasing levels of humidity, but its not completely plain sailing. Still some showers around through the afternoon, particularly affecting parts of Northern England and scotland, there could well be the Odd Heavy One here, but a lot of dry weather, some spells of sunshine and temperatures of 21 degrees in glasgow, 20 in belfast, but 25, maybe 26 in parts of eastern england. Through the evening, most of the showers will fade, but we will keep more cloud across the north and the east of scotland and parts of North East England as we go through the night. A few spots of rain with that. Elsewhere, some clear spells. It will be a relatively cool night for some parts of east wales, the West Midlands and down into the west country. Across southern england, wales, parts of Northern England, Southern Scotland and Northern Ireland there could be some patchy fog tomorrow morning and, at this time of year, that fog can tend to linger for a couple of hours through the morning rush hour. It should then tend to lift and clear. For most, theres going to be a lot of dry weather, spells of sunshine and just the small chance of catching a shower. More cloud generally clinging on across some northern and eastern parts of scotland, with some showers here. The highest temperatures down towards the south east corner, up to around 26 celsius. As we move out of wednesday into thursday, this area of High Pressure tends to shift north eastwards and the winds begin to come in our direction from the near continent, which will bring some warmer air across more parts of the uk. So a warmer feeling day on thursday, quite humid, as well. Some fog patches to start off, particularly across parts of Northern England and scotland. One or two showers, but a lot of dry weather, some spells of sunshine and temperatures for many spots getting into the low to mid 20s. We could see 25, maybe 26 degrees around some or western parts. That warmth will try to hold on into friday. Theres Uncertainty Aboutjust how warm friday might be because we see frontal systems approaching from the atlantic and, depending on just how quickly the cloud and the rain arrives, well, temperatures may be somewhat suppressed. We will see outbreaks of rain pushing in from the south west, some heavy thundery bursts, and temperatures generally in the low to mid 20s. Live from london. This is bbc news.
