But the wildfire risk, despite the devastation in lahaina, is farfrom over. This helicopter taking multiple trips, carrying water off to fight the wildfires still smouldering right across this area. But some of those who have lost homes here, point to something they say should already have been focusing the minds of the authorities. Like, as if it isnt obvious, notjust from whats happening here, but all over the world. What could be more obvious that we are having disaster after disaster thats all as a result of Climate Change . With more bodies yet to be recovered, this is already americas most lethal wildfire in more than a century. Few doubt that lessons need to be learned. John sudworth, bbc news, maui. Saudi arabias Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman has been invited to visit the uk. The visit is likely to prompt sharp criticism over the gulf leaders human rights record. It would be the first trip to the uk by The Crown Prince since the murder ofjournalist Jamal Khashoggi at the saudi consulate in istanbul in 2018. Us Intelligence Agencies concluded that the prince must have authorised the killing. Our political correspondent, helen catt explained why the government is pusing this controversial trip. Well, rishi sunak and Mohammed Bin Salman spoke on the phone this afternoon, and some of the content of their conversation i think offers a bit of an answer to that. So they spoke about developing a trade and investment relationship, particularly in what they described as new cutting edge industries. Now saudi arabia is spending very big at the moment, trying to diversify its economy away from oil. Its also been investing very heavily in sport in recent years the uk wants more trade. Its also one of the governments trade priorities to do a deal with a group of countries in the gulf, of which saudi arabia is a member although were told the department for business and trade didnt have any hand and wasnt involved in this invitation. Now a former minister who i spoke to earlier who does have concerns about saudi human rights records said the reality was it was a major player in the region, the government had to engage, and that this gave an opportunity to the uk to raise some of those issues. Labour too has said there needed to be dialogue, but rishi sunak would have to raise human rights issues on any visit. This will be controversial, and there were those who do not see it this way. The Liberal Democrats have said it amounts to rolling out the red carpet for Mohammed Bin Salman and sending a message, they say, that he can continue to act with impunity. Four people have been detained after a boat illegally carrying migrants to the uk sank in the English Channel last week. Six of those on board lost their lives. In the last week alone, more than 2,000 people have tried to cross the channel in small boats. 0ur correspondent tom symonds reports from calais. 0n wasteland close to dunkirk, the worlds migrants continue to live in limbo. Theres food, water, phone chargers, even lessons for the kids provided by aid agencies. But these tracks lead to the coast, to the small boats, to britain. Karim, who asked not to be identified, paid people smugglers 2000 euros for a place on the boat which then sank. He said they promised him theyre going to send him to uk in good boat. In a good boat . Did they say what a good boat was . Translation big boat, ten metres, 15 metres. L but in the end, it was three metres or four metres. And how many people were on that boat . They put 70 people on the boat, but there was no space and they left ten people behind. Karim was one of them. Two friends stayed on board. He thinks theyre dead. But 22 year old idris survived. Translation there were far too many passengers. The waves were very strong, and the boat split up. Some people fell into. The water and drowned. I never believed i would survive. I was fast losing the strengthl to swim, but i kept trying very hard to keep afloat. But when it comes to getting to britain, nothing has changed. Will you try tonight . |translation last night, | tried, | and my boat was cut by the police. And tonight, i dont know. In the uk, some ask is enough being done in france to stop the boats . We went to several beaches discreetly at night, hoping to see migrants leaving. Each time. Bonjour, messieurs . We were immediately spotted by the police using night vision gear. Britain helps fund the officers and the equipment. Teams in camouflage watched us from the shadows. A Spotter Plane flew overhead, and on the ground, they searched for the hiding places used by the traffickers. But the coast is more than 70 miles long, and the traffickers have become experts at moving people. There are plenty of signs of how this works. The people smugglers hide their clients here in the dunes at night, trying to evade the police who are watching out for them. And they keep their boats here, heres one, an inflatable boat. And they try and rush to the beach atjust the right moment. The police, well, they try and slash the boats so they cant be used. The police are not a deterrent to migrants like jalla and her family. She says theyre fleeing gun attacks in iraq. They have tiny children, but theyre repeatedly trying to get on a boat. You know that a boat sank last week. Yeah, i know. What do you think about that . Its fate. If it happens, it happens . Yeah. Its not dangerous for us. We come across so many difficulties in my country. This is better than shooting us, you know, shooting my kids in front of my house. That raw drive is why stopping the boats is perhaps the governments most daunting challenge. Tom symonds, bbc news, calais. The leaders of the us, South Korea And Japan are meeting at camp david, a president ial retreat in the state of maryland. The meeting will be the first time the leaders of the three nations hold a stand alone summit instead of gathering on the sidelines of an event. Americas two strongest allies in asia have often had a contentious relationship, but recent diplomatic outreach has seen seoul and tokyo look to put their historical grievances aside in the face of challenges from north korea and china. Im joined now by naoko aoki, an associate political scientist at the rand corporation. Thank you very much forjoining us. Historically, japan and south korea have not seen eye to eye. Both have made Progress Injust the past year alone, but what do they hope to get out of this camp david meeting . Yeah, i think this is a great opportunity for the three countries to foster a stronger, more Stable Partnership which is good for deterrence and Contingency Planning at a time when china is Acting Assertively in the region, and north koreas continuing to improve its Nuclear Missile arsenals. I think it would be great if the three countries can institutionalise some of the security cooperations, and this is because one of the challenges for this partnership is the political aspect that you just mentioned. And by trying to institutionalise some of the security cooperative measures, you can probably shield the partnership a little bit more from such potential political negative winds. Why do South Korea And Japan need the us, particularly when it comes to geopolitical issues . To geopolitical issues . Japan and south korea to geopolitical issues . Japan and south korea have to geopolitical issues . Japan and South Korea Have Historical to geopolitical issues . Japan and | South Korea Have Historical issues stemming from the 1910s and 1945 colonisation, japans colonisation of the Korean Peninsula and that is something that is unfortunately very difficult to resolve completely, so theyll have to manage that part of the relationship while cooperating on security issues. ~ ,. , while cooperating on security issues. , ~ ,. ,.

Melissa, we have to leave it there, im sorry, thank you for watching, im sorry, thank you for watching, im monica miller. Hello. Were going to have all sorts of weather on friday from Morning Thunderstorms across the south of the country, to sunshine in the Lake District and scotland. So a real mixed bag on the way. So lets have a look at the big picture. Heres the Satellite Picture jet stream pushing along this developing area of weather. Multiple areas of low pressure and multiple Weather Fronts heading our way. And yes, therell be some storms, too. So lets have a look at the Early Morning forecast showers already breaking out across some southwestern parts of the country, possibly some rumbles of thunder, too. But further north and east, i think bright spells, if not cloudy skies across some of these north sea coasts. Quite muggy in the morning. But lets have a look at the thunderstorms, then. So sweeping in from the southwest this is around about 7am the position of these storms very tricky to pinpoint, but we will see some downpours in places. Frequent lightning, gusty winds, as well. Some rain moving through Northern Ireland in the morning, too, then eventually, these thunderstorms will move into the midlands, move a little bit further northwards, and most of them should fade so were not anticipating any storms further north. Now further north, itll be a little bit cooler around 17 in aberdeen, 19 in glasgow, further south across the country, around about 21 23 celsius. Then friday night, the next era of rain sweeps across the country this is a developing area of low pressure with the risk of gales around some western and southwestern coasts. So very blustery weather for a time in the morning, especially out towards the southwest. The rain will move north, and then later in the day on saturday, its actually better its quite a breezy day, but plenty of bright, if not sunny weather, and just a scattering of showers. And the temperatures will rise a little bit, as well. Now looking ahead to sunday, an area of High Pressure is expected to build in from the south, extending all the way from these southwestern portions. And i think a pretty decent day on the way, just a scattering of showers, really pleasant temperatures 25 in london, about 20 expected in glasgow, and about 21 in belfast. And the outlook is looking warm for many of us, not necessarily sunny all the time i think the low 20s further north, and comfortably into the mid 20s across some southern areas. Thats it for me, bye bye. This is bbc news. We will have the headlines and all the main news stories for you at the top of the hour as newsday continues straight after hardtalk. Welcome to hardtalk. Thank you. Im stephen sackur. Afterfour decades in power in cambodia hun sen is handing over to his eldest son. Dad will remain leader of the Ruling Peoples Party so significant change seems unlikely for either family or country. Given years of Economic Growth and a key strategic position in southeast asia, maybe the status quo is acceptable to most cambodians. It is hard to know given the repression of political dissent. My guest is the veteran exiled Opposition Leader sam rainsy. Has Hun Sen Outwitted his enemies . Sam rainsy, welcome to hardtalk. It is a great pleasure to have you in the studio, i wonder if right now you are feeling very depressed
