Could a multi million Pound Takeover restore the club to its former glories after years of frustration for the clubs fans, and offer a fresh start. After the Heavy Rain we have the remnants yet to clear the South East. That will happen shortly. We have a Weather Front bringing rain in scotland and in between, something brighter and drier with just between, something brighter and drier withjust a few between, something brighter and drier with just a few showers. All the details later. Its tuesday the 24th september. Thousands of people in Southern Lebanon have been fleeing their homes after israeli Air Strikes killed almost 500 people in the deadliest day of Cross Border Conflict with hezbollah in 20 years. World powers have urged restraint on both sides, amid fears of an all out war across the region. Hezbollah is backed by iran and has been designated a Terrorist Organisation by The Uk and other western countries. The Israeli Military says it hit around 1600 hezbollah targets, but leb
You re very welcome along to the programme, wherever you re watching around the world. After one of the most turbulent years in the club s history, there is finally some good news for everton. It was just over 12 months ago that the owner farhad moshiri agreed to sell his 94% stake. But as the first takeover stalled and eventually fell through, two separate points deductions for financial breaches followed, leaving the team facing another potential relegation battle. They avoided that, but two more potential investors came and went over the summer, and the team have now made their worst start to a season since the 1950s. But the club picked up its first point over the weekend, it has now emerged that one of those summer suitors was back and a deal has been agreed, so if it passes the necessary checks, then the friedkin group fronted by the american billionaire dan friedkin will become the new owners. They ve had talks this weekend with farhad moshiri, come to an agreement, and i am
Was back and a deal has been agreed, so if it passes the necessary checks, then the friedkin group fronted by the american billionaire dan friedkin will become the new owners. They ve had talks this weekend with farhad moshiri, come to an agreement, and i am told the deal is done, it has been signed. I m also told the finances are already in place. Any issues they had over the 777 loans have been resolved as well. So all this now needs is premier league ratification, and i m told that could happen pretty quickly as well. Well, it has taken 18 months to get to this stage, with three potantial takeovers having previously failed to be completed. So this latest development is being met with cautious optimism. It s a mixed reaction, one of excitement at the potential to move forward but also a little air of i ll believe it when i actually see it finally in place. We ve sort of been running like a corner shop. We ve not really had that direction, that strategy, that big perspective menta
It isn t easy travelling in somalia. This is one of the most dangerous countries in the world to be a journalist, or for anyone else for that matter. We re with the red cross, and to ensure the safety of the team, we ve got to bring along some pretty serious security. Somalia is the only country in the world where the international red cross travels with armed guards as standard. We are headed out into the wild scrub that covers much of the country to meet a community who are right on the front line of climate change. Somalia is still overwhelmingly an agricultural society. Some two thirds of the people here depend on farming. About half the population earns its living by herding animals. Translation: when i had many camels, we would walk very far. | i would take them to places with good pasture where they could flourish. Sheikh don ismail used to be a nomadic camel herder. They sing the herders sing traditional songs to soothe the animals as they scoop water into the camels trough. T
Martin griffiths, welcome to hardtalk. Thank you very much. Thank you for having me. Now, you ve been in that seat on this programme before, but this is the first time that you re talking to us since you stepped down from your role as the un s humanitarian chief injune this year. You have greater liberty, essentially, now to tell us what you think about the situations that you ve seen. May we begin in sudan, which is just one of the crises that you ve dealt with in recent times? it s a civil war that in the last 18 months has put an extraordinary 25 million people in need of support and struggling to survive. You said recently that you thought sudan could be worse than ethiopia in the 1980s. What did you mean? well, sudan is the first place now where famine has been formally declared, as you know, the first place since 2017, because there s 25 million people in need, and we don t know precisely, because of the lack of access to these people, how much in need they are. We think that the
