it s not clear if the incident is connected to the euros tournament. earlier my colleague spoke to gary rose on the telephone who is currently in hamburg. i m at the stadium now, which is around about five miles away from the centre of hamburg. i was in the fan zone area this morning where it seems reported that this incident took place. and there was thousands of dutch fans at that point because they always do a traditional walk to the stadium. and throughout the morning, obviously, there was no indication of any trouble. since i ve got to the stadium, that s when the news developed. and at the moment, everything seems to be going ahead here as planned, basically. how many supporters are in the city? so, this fan walk particularly was expected to be around 30,000 dutch fans. i would imagine there s sort of similar ish figures for the polish fans as well. majority, this is about a 40,000, 45,000 seat stadium. so with 15,000 tickets sold, i believe, for each sets of supporters
now on bbc news, newscast with laura kuenssberg and paddy o connell. newscast from the bbc. hello, it s laura in the studio. it s paddy in the studio. and i m so relieved that you didn t ask me about whatever they ve changed to do with football, something or other, because i would have had to try to have a stab at it, and it would have been embarrassing for all concerned. there s a lot of politicians bigging up their love of football. 0h, crikey! which i actually. do you know what, i m always trying to say i m not cynical. it s fine if it s authentic. exactly. like keir starmer is a massive football fan. he likes going to football grounds. that also makes sense for them politically because of the image it projects, but he is a genuine football fan. some of them aren t always, and we did have a bit of a laugh about it on our show this morning. but the main thing we talked about this morning on the programme, not exclusively, but we talked a lot about health and social care bec
day. the shadow health secretary wes streeting has said he would have liked labour to have been more ambitious in its plans for social care in its election manifesto. in an interview this morning, he acknowledged that successive governments of all parties had failed to deal with the problems in the sector. a leading health think tank warned that the nhs is facing its tightest spending for decades and called on all the main parties to be more transparent about that. hannah miller reports. good morning, how are we doing? keir starmer campaigning this weekend, claiming he will get to the nhs back on its feet. but that will require more ambitious treatment, says a leading health think tank as it warns both the conservatives and labour that their current manifesto commitments amount to the tightest spending plans in nhs history. with a lack of social care support, one of the key reasons the nhs is struggling, today labour had to defend why it has not come up with a clearer plan fo
and then fire several shots. this video doesn t capture all of those shots fired, there were more. we ve paused them at the moment when some of those gun shots were fired. german authorities have put police on high alert during the euros tournament. here s a spokesperson for the hamburg police, speaking shortly after the incident. translation: according to what we know now, a man came out of a restaurant. he obviously had a molotov cocktail in his hand and also pickaxe. he also apparently tried to set fire to this molotov cocktail and then walked towards several people with it, including police officers who were on duty here at the time. and the police officers then made use of their firearms. we re assuming that this is an isolated case, which means that it s not football related. there s obviously no football connection, but we re dealing with an individual offender. and in this respect, i don t see any danger at all or any impact on the game today. i v e i ve just been i v
