The team will look at the needs of people remaining in the territory as well as those who are on the move. Azerbaijan has said it would allow such a visit to take place. Ketevan khachidze is the Chief Executive of care caucasus. I was in a small town near the border. Obviously, this situation is devastating and hundreds and hundreds of people are crossing the border. They are tired, exhausted, they are hungry and they are just desperate. They are hopeless because they have just put all their belongings in their bags and theyjust rushed into their cars and started moving. And obviously, the situation is really desperate. People have Nowhere To Go and the certainty about their future is really not clear at the moment. We also just conducted a rapid Needs Assessment to understand what are the needs of these people at the moment, and what these people have told us, over 55 have Nowhere To Go, orjust have no place. It is not really clear where they will be placed at the moment. Freelance journalist Siranush Sargsyan described whats been happening in the region. As you can see, were still stuck in a road. This exodus is unbearable, not only because of psychologically. As many people here, they are becoming a refugee already third time in their life. But this exodus is also unbearable just literally physically, because we already 60 hours spent in this road, and we still pass approximately 28 kilometre and it seems like even during 2a hours, we can reach border. Here in the uk, rishi sunak has been given a warning by more than 30 of his own mps, who say they wont support any policies that lead to higher overall taxes. Meanwhile, the Conservative Party are also promoting policies with the aim of backing motorists all this ahead of the conservative Party Conference in manchester. 0ur political reporter Tony Bonsignore has more on this. We have a group today of more than 30 conservative mps, including liz truss, the former Prime Minister, Prime Minister only very briefly but Prime Minister only very briefly but Prime Minister only very briefly but Prime Minister nonetheless. Saying they wont support any tax measures which increase the overall tax burden. That is unlikely to happen, but this is a warning shot to the government ahead of the Autumn Statement and the Spring Budget and the election next year. The government says. The Chancellorjeremy Hunt says yes, we want to get taxes down, this isnt the time to cut taxes though, and what we will do is make the Public Sector more productive by the use of technology, and we will reform the benefit system.

Taxes in this country only go up taxes. Taxes in this country only go up if mps vote for it, and that is why it is an important moment for me and other colleagues to say that actually come up with taxes act a 75 year high, they shouldnt be any higher. My constituents worked really hard and own every single penny they get, and i think that in a world where the governments just feels they can dip their pockets and not necessarily take those longer term decisions about Public Sector reform, it is important they are served by an mp that has this far, and no further. fix, served by an mp that has this far, and no further.

Like you, i had no idea whatsoever what decision the government is going to take in relation to hs2, but to someone who has lived and worked in the north of england my entire life and represent a northern constituency, for me, the absolute top priority must be Northern Powerhouse rail or crossrail for the north of england. The challenge of cancelling phase two of hs2 for some of that is shared infrastructure, so when the Prime Minister and his ministers make a decision, i will be listening very carefully, because i want to ensure that that cross rail for the north is built for my constituents. I dont think it should be an either or, by the way, because people in london didnt or, by the way, because people in london didnt have to decide between Itjust London didnt have to decide between it just will not london didnt have to decide between itjust will not hs2, they got both. They didnt decide between Crossrail One and crossrail two, they got both. The north im one and crossrail two, they got both. The north im sure it needs both, but we have to give up one, i would give up hs2 in favour of that east west connectivity. We would give up h52 in favour of that eastwest connectivity.

It leads to more problems, doesnt it leads to more problems, doesnt it . The Chief Executive of iceland supermarket, richard walker, who was one of your partys most vocal backers, who said he wanted to possibly become a tory mp, he has resigned from the Conservative Party. He is claiming it is out of touch and it has lost its way, and crucially, that the country has deteriorated since the tories came to power.

At midnight eastern time today, the Us Government will run out of money to fund the operations of its Government Agencies unless congress can reach a last minute deal. If there is no agreement, this will mark the 22nd Government Shutdown in 50 years. As things stand, it appears that neither side is willing to compromise on their demands. But we are just getting information that the us house will vote on stopgap bill to fund the government for another 45 days.

The house of surprising. The House Of Representatives failed to pass their own bill yesterday that would have pointed the government through to the end of october. That was 30 days. There has really been a rejection driven by hardline republicans, around nine of them, other deal that had bipartisan support in the Upper Chamber in the senate, which would have kept the government is going through till the middle of november. Look, the reasons behind the shutdown are far less clear that they have been in previous ones. 0n less clear that they have been in previous ones. On paper at least, the objection to the senate bill on the objection to the senate bill on the part of the hardline republicans are that Border Protections are not strong enough, and deep spending cuts are not deep enough. Bear in mind, we are talking about a temporary funding measure, for example, 6 billion of the proposed 24 would have been released as far as ukraine is concerned. We have just heard from the republican speaker Kevin Mccarthy, bold words, he said he is willing to risk his job to get a deal through, but the evidence is actually completely to the contrary of what Kevin Mccarthy has just said there. Because it is the case that the deal that the senate had passed was based on an agreement he made with the white house earlier this year, a deal that those hardliners said that if he worked with democrats to push through, to keep the government open till the 17th of november, would have resulted in his removalfrom office.

Investigations are under way in pakistan into two deadly explosions which killed at least 60 people. The first explosion was near a mosque in the southwestern province of balochistan as people celebrated the birth of the prophet muhammad. Police say at least 55 people were killed there, with another 50 injured. Police suspect it was a Suicide Attack targeting the religious gathering in mastung city. These pictures are from balochistan, pakistans largest province. The region has suffered mutiple attacks from groups including the Pakistani Taliban and Islamic State group. And in a separate explosion, at least five people are reported to have died at a blast at a mosque near the city of peshawar. Many more were feared trapped under the collapsed building. Bbc urdus saher baloch has the latest from mastang. The latest from mastung. Im in mastung city right now, which was rocked by a blast yesterday. The police says that it was a suicide blast. If you look around, there are a lot of slippers and belongings of people that are strewn around here. The police has also tried to clean the area, but it seems like they were not able to do so properly. As soon as i got here, i was told that in the hospital near me there are many unidentified people as well. So around 52 people were dead, pronounced dead on arrival. And at the same time, there were 139 people who were injured in this incident, as a result of this incident. The police says that it was a suicide blast, but so far, none of the militant organisations have claimed responsibility for it. The people i spoke with over here, they are saying that who basically did that and what was their motivation. What exactly happened yesterday was that people congregated on this area, around this place and they were going to start marching to celebrate the Birth Anniversary of prophet muhammad, because this was a tradition that was practised over here for many, many years. I also roamed around a bit in this area, and i got to know that there are many unidentified bodies still lying in the hospital. Some of them, some of the people were identified and they were taken to quetta. But a lot of bodies are still unidentified. At the same time, the people around here are questioning the investigation of the police and they are also questioning why repeatedly such attacks are happening in mastung. The Police Officers that i spoke with over here, they are not taking any names any more because since the time they named Pakistani Taliban and they backed off from it and they said that they have nothing to do with this incident at all, the police has not said anything at all about who could be responsible for this. So for the time being, the people over here still have a lot of questions that need answering. Its one year since russias illegal annexation of four ukrainian territories, a decision that sparked almost universal condemnation. Today President Putin defended the move and claimed that russia had become stronger for it. But russia is not even in full control of the four regions it claims to have annexed donetsk, luhansk, zaporizhzhia and kherson. And more than a year and a half after its full scale invasion of ukraine, russia appears no closer to winning the war there. From moscow, our russia editor, steve rosenberg, reports. A year ago, he proclaimed the annexation of four ukrainian regions. Today, Vladimir Putin said russia had become stronger as a result. Together we can meet any challenge. Together they streamed towards red square, a highly organised show of support for the annexation that only two countries have recognized syria and north korea. It all belongs to us now, yelena says. We restored part of our historic motherland. But its ukrainian territory, i say. Its russia, only russia. Flags distributed, cue the patriotic concert. In the absence of victory, this was all about creating the impression of victory, a dizzying sense of achievement, so that russians believe that the last 19 months of pain havent been in vain. So the kremlin tells them that their country has got bigger, stronger, when in reality, the invasion of ukraine has gone badly wrong for russia. One recent example the Ukrainian Missile attack on russias Black Sea Fleet headquarters in occupied crimea. It showed how moscows struggling to defend strategically important targets. But theres no change of plan. In ukraine, russia fights on. The army says its recruited an extra 300,000 volunteers. President putin is pushing on with the war and confrontation with the west. How far is putin prepared to go now to achieve the victory . To the end. To whatever that end is. Hes not going to give up, hes not going to waver, hes not going to blink, hes not going to make concessions. So putin is waiting for the west to blink first . Absolutely. Hes waiting it out. The kremlin leader apparently believing that time is on russias side. Steve rosenberg, bbc news, moscow.

To recap our top story, more than 100,000 refugees have arrived in armenia from Nagorno Karabakh since azerbaijan seized the region last week. It means that that almost the entire population of the Ethnic Armenian enclave. Azerbaijan has said it wants to reintegrate the area and treat its residents as equals, but an armenian spokesman said this was just a lie. The Italian Government says armenia has now asked the European Union for help to deal with refugees. It said armenia was requesting temporary shelters and medical supplies. The United Nations says its sending a team to the enclave to assess humanitarian needs. Nagorno karabakh recognised as part of azerbaijan had been run by Ethnic Armenians for three decades. Lots more on that story on the bbc news website. Do stay with us. Good afternoon. It was a fine start to the last day of september, albeit a little chilly, but rain is now moving in on this area of low pressure here. That will bring some rather wet weather across Northern Ireland, much of northern and western england and wales throughout the remainder of daylight today, but further north across scotland, staying fine and dry as it should do across southern and eastern areas, and still feeling quite warm, but with this rain, there is some really quite lively gusts of wind to come as well, which will make it feel a bit cooler, and fog over the hills around some of the coasts as well, but it is mild and muggy air thats pushing northwards, so we should still see the 19s and 20s, and temperatures wont drop much overnight, because although a lot of the rain as it sweeps its way northward and eastward clears away, we are left with a legacy of cloud, More Rain Coming in across parts of england and wales overnight, and some mist and fog at lower levels by the rain as it sweeps its way northward and eastward clears away, we are left with a legacy of cloud, with More Rain Coming in across parts of england and wales overnight, and some mist and fog at lower and some mist and fog at lower levels. Further south, look at the temperatures the next couple of days. That means not only mist and fog over the hills at lower levels to the south of our weather front first thing sunday. To the north, it looksjust a scattering of showers for scotland and Northern Ireland, but this ring ever present for parts of england and wales, and cumbria could see 30 or 40 millimetres of rain before it starts to clear away, and it could well still clear away from the north during the latter part of tomorrow afternoon. Ahead of that system, 23 or 24, but even with the rain further north, 18 to 20 degrees. It is really mild air, which will still hang around during sunday night and into monday, with further pulses of energy if you like, running along this same weatherfront, and given the fact it is very warm air, we could get some quite significant thunderstorms across england and wales in particular, as we head through sunday night into monday, it will be sunny spells and scattered showers for monday again across scotland and Northern Ireland, but these could be really intense gusty winds with them, and even some hail, but still warm, because it is warm air. And again, we could start the day with some mist and fog through the morning rush as we will see on sunday. Beyond that, it looks showery across scotland and Northern Ireland as we go through the week, but we will see temperatures building in the south. Goodbye for now. This is bbc news.
