welcome. police investigating the manchester suicide bombing will resume sharing intelligence information with their us counterparts. cooperation was temporarily suspended after details of the investigation were leaked to american media. president trump said those responsible should be prosecuted. in the uk, a minute's silence was held to remember the 22 people who lost their lives in the attack. from manchester, gavin hewitt reports. in the minutes before the silence, thousands headed to the squares, the open spaces, the office doorways, a moment for a wounded community to reflect, to remember, to stand together. in manchester, a long minute ended with applause. applause it was really beautiful, i thought it was so nice, everyone coming here and showing respect. today's been a time to reflect and a time of remembrance. and at the same time, to show strength and unity, and our support to those who've lost their loved ones. i've come to pay tribute to those who were so courageous that night, those who have lost their lives, and those who are still fighting for their lives. during the morning the queen visited the royal manchester children's hospital. you didn't happen to be the first one, were you? i was, from the ambulance service. she thanked the medical staff who attended the scene and spoke to some of those wounded. you had enjoyed the concert presumably? yeah, it was really good. was it? i got to meet her before the concert as well. she was lovely. really? yeah. did you? in one conversation she described the attack as wicked. a big shock. a really big shock. very wicked. another patient spoke about her shrapnel wounds. dreadful, absolutely dreadful. mine's gone through 15 centimetres out the other side. i'm due in surgery later on this afternoon. 75 people are still in hospital and some of them will need reconstructive surgery. today was a reminder of what unites people, a determination not to allow monday's bombing to define this city and its communities. even while people are still seeking answers as to how a young man born here could carry out such an attack. this evening, hundreds of people were still laying flowers, a day of solidarity after the deliberate targeting of children and teenagers. gavin hewitt, bbc news, manchester. police say their investigation into monday's suicide bombing is moving quickly. security services have been trying to establish whether salman abedi was part of a wider terror network. the bbc‘s mark easton has the latest developments. officer: i'm going to have to move you back, please. move back. this evening, the police hunt for salman abedi's bomb factory took a new turn, the search of a house in wigan suddenly escalated with the discovery of suspicious items and the bomb squad were called to the scene. local families were evacuated as a robot, often used to defuse roadside bombs in war zones, was deployed on a residential home in greater manchester. i share a wall with the guy who was arrested. if there's something inside and my things get destroyed... you're literally in the neighbouring room? yeah. i didn't expect that something of this sort could happen so close to us. it is really shocking. sirens police have described their investigation as fast—moving. this morning, as the country stood in silence, armed police officers were shouting at residents in central manchester to take cover after reports of a suspect package in a block of flats. there was loads of armed police officers in the middle of the grass just squatting down and they were just shouting at everyone telling them, don't go near the road. officer: can you move out of the way, please. i panicked because my daughter works in the school that's just there. your first instinct is, i need my child. the city is jittery as counter—terrorism chiefs desperately try to track the movements of salman abedi. this is what the search for a bomb factory looks like, a tip—off, an address, a raid and, on this occasion, an arrest. but the search for that factory still goes on. this raid did not produce the lead they'd hoped for, but the investigation is understood to be making real progress. two arrests were made in manchester early today and there was a linked swoop on a property 75 miles south in nuneaton late last night where another man was arrested. eight men are now in custody in connection with the arena bombing. i want to reassure people that the arrests that we have made are significant and initial searches of premises have revealed items that we believe are very important to the investigation. police and counter—terrorism officers are piecing together a picture of salman abedi's last movements. it's understood he'd recently left manchester for tripoli in libya, returning to the uk four days before the attack via istanbul and dusseldorf airports. police think in the hours before the bombing he may have been at a property in granby row near piccadilly railway station and a short distance from the manchester arena where the bomb exploded. somewhere near here he'd phoned his mother and said "forgive me", according to a libyan anti—terrorism official. but who else did he talk to? where else had abedi been? forensics, cctv, traffic cameras, interviews, every conceivable method for tracking abedi's movements is being pursued. we've been overwhelmed with support from members of the public and i'd ask for patience to continue from our local communities here in greater manchester as we carry out those searches and this investigation. there are nagging questions, though. abedi was known to security services. there had been warnings about his radicalisation. why wasn't he stopped before he carried out his murderous attack? since 2013, 18 plots have been thwarted, five since the westminster attack in march. could, should this one have been prevented too? mark easton, bbc news, manchester. let's take a look at some of the day's other news. the usjustice department says it will seek a supreme court ruling after an appeal court refused to reinstate a temporary travel ban on people from six mainly muslim nations. the attorney generaljeff sessions said the appeal court's decision thwarted president trump's effort to protect us national security. also making news today: the philippines mobilised attack helicopters and special forces to drive out so—called islamic state—linked rebels from the besieged city of marawi on thursday. militants held the mainly—muslim city on mindanao island for two days. six soldiers and 18 rebels were killed in combat. the so—called islamic state has claimed responsibility forjakarta bus station attacks that left at least three policemen dead and a dozen others wounded on wednesday. authorities investigating the incident also believe the bombers had links with is. the blasts were believed to target police. and republican congressional candidate greg gianforte was arrested after body slamming a guardian journalist who asked a question about healthcare. inmates have escaped from prison in north—east brazil. the police hunt is under way at the prison in the state of rio grande do norte. like manyjails in state of rio grande do norte. like many jails in rizal, state of rio grande do norte. like manyjails in rizal, it is dilapidated and overcrowded. and wayne rooney might not be getting that big money move to china after all. that's because the football authorities there have announced a 100% tax on future signings of foreign players. the move is being made to encourage the development of home—grown talent. american media are reporting that president trump's son—in—law and senior and —— senior adviserjared kushner is under fbi scrutiny over alleged russian meddling in last yea r‘s alleged russian meddling in last year's russian alleged russian meddling in last yea r‘s russian election. these are the rumours that have been circulating in washington. these are the rumours that have been circulating in washingtonm these are the rumours that have been circulating in washington. it brings the enquiry not only to the doorstep of the white house but potentially within the inner circle of president trump himself. that is why there was a lot of interest in the suggestions and it is the washington post that is leading the way on this reporting. jared kushner is, apart from being the president's son—in—law, is his most trusted adviser. he has a very wide ranging brief anti— played a key part in president trump's preparation for his visit to the middle east, saudi arabia last week. according to the washington post another media, it's now emerged that he may have significant information as the media here is putting it in regard to the fbi investigation, that ongoing investigation into alleged russian meddling. that fbi enquiry, now being led by the former fbi director, of course. it is being made plain that there is nothing to suggest that jared kushner is suspected of a crime, nothing to suggest the fbi is about to charge him. indeed, jared kushner himself volunteered to give evidence to another body which is investigating russian links, the senate intelligence committee, of his own volition. it is certainly an interesting development. in brussels, mr trump has strongly criticised nato leaders for not paying enough into the military alliance. speaking at the nato's new headquarters in brussels, he said only five of 28 members were meeting their financial obligations. just ahead of his speech, he was caught on camera apparently pushing in front of the president of montenegro. i have been very, very direct with secretary stoltenberg and members of the alliance in saying that nato members must finally contribute their fair share and meet their financial obligations. but 23 of the 28 member nations are still not paying what they should be paying, and what they're supposed to be paying, for their defence. this is not fair to the people and taxpayers of the united states, and many of these nations owe massive amounts of money from past years, and not paying in those past years. the nato leaders have officially agreed a us plan to increase the role of the alliance in tackling the so—called islamic state group. the bbc‘sjonathan beale is in brussels. donald trump certainly gave both barrels to those countries in the nato alliance who he believes are not paying their way, but also showed, actually, that he didn't really understand, to some extent, how nato worked — there is no obligation, no enforcement, there is no punishment for those countries that do not meet the 2% but he had a point, and that is that there are still plenty of countries that have said they will who work towards spending 2% of their national income on defence and have not done so. i this this was a speech really for his supporters back home, who back him when he says nato hasn't been paying its way. they did however, the leaders here, want to give him something, give donald trump something because america is crucial to this alliance and they have now agreed amongst themselves despite reservations that the nato alliance will be a formal part of the coalition against so—called islamic state. what does that mean in practice? to be honest, it is more symbolism than anything substantial. yes, nato can give for example its early warning aircraft to fly over iraq and syria, to manage the airspace for that bombing campaign at the moment, they can help with the training on the ground in iraq, butjens stoltenberg, nato's secretary general, has made it very clear that this does not meant that nato will be directly involved in combat operations. you're watching newsday on the bbc. still to come on the programme: australia discusses how to recognise its first inhabitants. and a successful launch for the first test rocket into space. in the biggest international sporting spectacle ever seen, up to 30 million people have taken part in sponsored athletic events to aid famine relief in africa. the first of what the makers of star wars hope will be thousands of queues started forming at 7am. taunting which led to scuffles, scuffles to fighting, fighting to full—scale riot as the liverpool fans broke out of their area and into the juve ntus enclosure. the belgian police had lost control. the whole world will mourn the tragic death of mr canaroo today. he was the father of the indian people and the day of independence. the oprah winfrey show comes to an end after 25 years and more than a500 episodes. the chat show has made her one of the richest people on the planet. gerri halliwell, otherwise known as ginger spice, has announced she's left the spice girls. i don't believe it, she's the one with the bounce, the go, the girl power. not geri, why? this is newsday on the bbc. i'm sharanjit leyl in singapore. i'm kasia madera in london. our top stories. britain resumes intelligence sharing with the united states. it'd been suspended when american media were leaked details about the manchester bombing. it's reported president trump's son—in—law, jared kushner, is now a focus of the fbi inquiry into russian interference in the us election. let's take a look at some front pages from around the world. the china daily is leading with a report about us warships sailing close to disputed mischief reef. the paper quotes experts saying the move shows the us wants to keep a presence in the region. 0n the front page of the philippine daily inquirer a striking image of philippine government soldiers battling islamist militants in the southern city of marawi. and finally — the international edition of the new york times leads with a story from india — about ‘social media turning deadly‘. the paper says seven people were killed in vigilante attacks in central india — incited by false rumours on the messaging service whatsapp. now, kasia, it looks like barack 0bama received a rock—star reception in berlin earlier. yes, sharanjit, he certainly did. barack 0bama's visit has been trending online. the former us president took part in a discussion on democracy, and its future. thousands watched in front of berlin's most famous landmark, the brandenburg gate. he later received an award in baden—baden celebrating personalities with a strong global influence. he spoke of the need for a strong and united europe. if we do not, then we will hold the door open to those who argue that democracy doesn't work, who argue that restrictions on the press are necessary, who suggest that intolerance and tribalism and sectarianism and organising ourselves along ethnic lines are the answer to the challenges we face. so more than ever a strong united europe remains a necessity for all of us. australia has long grappled with its history, especially how to properly recognise the country's first inhabitants, who preceded british settlers by an estimated 50,000 years. indigenous australian leaders have been meeting at uluru — a landmark considered sacred. and it's there they've been discussing this very issue. some favour constitutional change while others demand a treaty. michael manse is a writer and activist who is from tasmania. he described how the current process could make a difference to the aboriginal people. the process that led up to 250 aboriginal people from around australia meeting here were set up by the federal parliament so they anticipate that aboriginal people are going to come up with a policy which, if it is adopted by the federal parliament, could make a real difference to the lives of aboriginal people. so it may well be the case that we will come up with things that the federal government would prefer we did not come up with but because they are endorsing the process , we but because they are endorsing the process, we think they are going to have to work with the aboriginal delegates and as a result of that, we can reduce the imprisonment rates, we can increase the traces of children living beyond the lives that they do, improve the employment and education standards of aboriginal people, and, hopefully, in the next ten years, things can turn around for the better. we know that dozens of indigenous leaders walked out of this meeting that is going on there. this was a protest against a plan to accept constitutional recognition. can you tell us about that and why is that proving controversial?” tell us about that and why is that proving controversial? i think the difference is that the process initially began several years ago, which was for symbolic constitutional recognition. in other words, the fact that we were here if all white people came was going to be stated in the australian constitution and, of course, it would create no legal rights it would create no legal rights it would impose no obligations upon government and would create no benefits to aboriginal people. so even though that was the initial process , even though that was the initial process, things have moved on quickly and many aboriginal people around the country are saying that if we are, in this day and age, watching australia was a very high standard of living and a very rich country at the one people who are missing out our aboriginal people, and if things are not working, we have to shift the agenda. and so many of the people, a handful of people yesterday thought looked, we are still not going far enough. there should be a treaty. land should be returned. 3% of the gross domestic product should be returned to aboriginal people. we need a national aboriginal body and we need the federal government to get out of the federal government to get out of the way and get behind aboriginal people and policy instead of dictating to us. and so they felt that their voice was not really heard so a handful of people walked out to make their point, which is fair enough. and that was michael speaking to me there against that stunning backdrop of uluru. now, at the next story is interesting. who would have thought that a 3—d printed rocket could blast off into space?! i wonder if you could see it from outer space? a new zealand—american company, rocket lab, says it has successfully launched its first test rocket into space. the seventeen—metre high craft took off from a private launch pad on new zealand's north island. the lightweight electron rocket is designed to carry a new generation of small satellites into space as hywel griffith reports. after three days of laid and bad weather, the rocket finally launched this afternoon and three minutes after it left the earth is needed into space. it is a test. the company into space. it is a test. the com pa ny stresses into space. it is a test. the company stresses it was only a test. what they aim to do, however, is revolutionised the market using new zealand as a launchpad. they say they can get into space was much greater frequency than other places. it will be carrying much smaller payloads as well. this rocket is only disguise, designed to carry 225 kilograms of small satellites, cube satellites that many are developing. they're not satellites that many are developing. they‘ re not planning satellites that many are developing. they're not planning to carry passengers any time soon. you have been watching newsday. stay with us. coming up — one man's trash is another man's treasure. we see how second hand clothes are recycled and turned into blankets for african customers. we will leave you now with an unusual drug smuggler that was caught in kuwait. have a look at this. yes, it is a pigeon and it was carrying nearly 200 pills of kedah mean. the drugs were in a small fabric rucksack sewn onto the pigeon's back. the bird was found near a customs post goes to the border with iraq. pigeons do have a powerful homing ability and can find their way back to their homes from hundreds, that's the way. this one was used in a very different way, however. the hot may weather is going to continue for a few more days yet, in fact, it's going to turn increasingly humid, particularly across southern areas of the uk and the sunshine is very powerful — we'll talk about that injust a second. in the short—term, very quiet on the weather front, out there, lots of clear skies and a very warm night, in fact, first thing in the morning, across scotland temperatures are round 15—17 celsius. here's the morning, around 8 o'clock, you can see there's hardly a cloud in the sky. honestly, clear blue skies tight across the uk. temperatures already nudging up into the high teens, not far off 20 degrees, in some areas. already 20 in the lowlands of scotland. and even in inverness around 18 celsius. 18 for stornoway as well. so a sunny and very warm start to the day. through the course of the morning, we'll see many a few fluffy clouds building up but for most of us it's going to stay clear, ands those south—easterly winds will keep on wafting in that hot air out of the near continent. these values, quite conservative. in some areas, it could even get up to around 28—29, including in parts of scotland, also. a very hot day on the way there. 0n those uv levels — high throughout the country, unusually high across southern areas of the uk. we often forget, whether it is 21 degrees or 29 degrees, you will burn just as easily if you are not protected from the sun with sunscreen, and out for any lengthy period of time. then there'sa change on the way. friday night into saturday we could cease storms rumbling through western parts of the uk. quite often when we get storms, things do turn a bit fresher, not necessarily on saturday. in fact, the air will keep on wafting in from the south, so humid air increasing and we will see the threat of thunderstorms. temperatures perhaps rising to 28—30 degrees, just that little bit less hot there, across scotland. into sunday, it does look as though fresher air gets into the northern half of the uk, but in the south, we'll see certainly increasing amount of cloud but also increasing humidity. it'll turn more sticky across the south during sunday. and yes, that is rain and these could be storms as well, so sunday into monday not only does the humidity increase but also the threat of thunderstorms and downpours. very difficult to predict what the temperature will be across southern areas on monday, if it stays cloudy and rainy, maybe in the low 20s. if the clouds break, it could even get up to 25 degrees. but you can see a lot fresher across northern areas, so bank holiday monday summary — sunshine and showers and fresher in the north, still warm and humid and stormy in the south. british police investigating the manchester suicide bombing, which killed 22 people, are resuming sharing intelligence information with their us counterparts. cooperation was temporarily suspended after details of the investigation were leaked to us media. meanwhile, police say the arrests they have made since monday's attack are significant. us media are reporting that president trump's son—in—law, the senior white house adviserjared kushner, is now a focus of the fbi inquiry into russian interference in last year's election. and this story is trending on bbc.com. barack 0bama has taken part in a public discussion in front of berlin's brandenburg gate. in his first major overseas trip since leaving the white house, mr 0bama received an award celebrating people with strong global influence. that's all from me for now. and the top story here in the uk.
