hello, i'm karin giannone, this is outside source. israel bars two us muslim congresswomen from entering the country... a move encouraged by president trump. the women have been critical of israel in the past, supporting a boycott over its treatment of palestinians. the latest twist in the row over a seized iranian supertanker, gibraltar orders the immediate release of grace one despite a us request not to. russian pilots hailed as heros — managing to safely land this airbus in a field — after its engines were struck by a flock of birds. translation: we have just crashed.

those pilots were amazing. full respect of them for getting us down. and the incredible findings at ‘mission jurassic‘ —— we'll take you to one of the biggest dinosaur graveyards in the world. israel has blocked the visit of these two us democratic congresswomen — after president donald trump encouraged it. the two women are ilhan omar and rashida tlaib, part of this group called the squad. they were involved in a racism row with president trump last month, after he tweeted that they should go back to where they came from. rashida tlaib is of palestinian origin and was planning to visit israel and the palestinian territories this weekend. mr trump tweeted. ..

israel initially agreed to the visit — but has now reversed its decision. israel's deputy foreign minister tzipi hotovely has tweeted... bds stands for ‘boycott, divestment and sanctions' — it's a movement that urges a complete boycott of israel over its policies towards the palestinians. tom batemen is injerusalem. these two congresswomen, ilhan omar, born in somalia, grew up in the united states, and rashida tlaib, who is of palestinian descent, have been long—term supporters of the palestinian cause and have also supported the movement to boycott israel. that has always been at the heart of this controversy. ever since their visit to the occupied west bank

and eastjerusalem was muted, there were those on the right in israel saying they should be prevented from coming into the country. this will cause a significant rupture among jewish groups in the us who have always championed bipartisan support for israel, and within israel, the israeli left and for israel, and within israel, the israeli left and liberals will call this move and say it is anti—democratic, simply barring foreign politicians from the countries simply because of the views that they may have. and the palestinian not—for—profit group that was organising the trip has called this an affront to the right of palestinians to reach out to global decision—makers they say in what should be an opportunity for people to see the reality on the ground here and say this is simply an attempt to cover that up. ilhan omar has responded to the president's decision by releasing this statement, saying "the irony of the ‘only democracy‘ in the middle east making

such a decision is that it is both an insult to democratic values and a chilling response to a visit by government officials from an allied nation." let‘s speak to chris buckler in washington. how has his gun down so far? president trump putting public and private pressure on the israeli government to block that visit has not been welcome by many inside congress. you think about it, a us president essentially saying that american elected individuals representing their constituents and the united states congress being blocked from a foreign country, they believe that is not something that should be designed by a president of the united states. what is interesting is it is notjust democrats saying this. there are some republicans for example, senator marco rubio has suggested that this is not something that he welcomed. and even a some lobby groups, for example, the american israel public affairs committee, a lobby group that works very well

strongly with congress to push israeli views and pushed through the israeli views and pushed through the israeli lobbying and it is very concerning because they see sells at a bipartisan group and in reality it is much more aligned with the republican party thinking. donald trump ozment party. they are saying as far as they concerned this is not as far as they concerned this is not a good idea. they say they believe every member of congress should be able to visit and experience our democratic ally israel first hand. that word ally. i wonder if anything like this has happened before. an ally of the us blocking us elected representatives. we have been racking our brains here in the office. to try to come up with some example of a president doing something like this. encouraging a member of congress to be barred from a country. we just member of congress to be barred from a country. wejust cannot member of congress to be barred from a country. we just cannot think of one. president trump of course believes he is doing the right thing care. but it is partly it has to be said perhaps about us politics as

much as it is about international politics. he has been somebody who has been very hard in this group of four democrats congresswoman known as the squad. of which rashida tlaib and also ilhan omar are a part. they area and also ilhan omar are a part. they are a group of four congresswoman from black and ethnic minority backgrounds who president trump has targeted in a number of tweets. and when another member of that group, alexandria occasio—cortez has set as far as she is concerned, this is not acceptable. she says these are the two muslim women of congress who essentially are being barred from israel and that is unacceptable and if anything, the ilhan omar comments go further and she says this is a chump ozment muslim land being enacted by israel. the is whether government say they are standing by this decision but it is worth pointing out that as little as a month ago, they were suggesting this visit would go ahead. —— trump cosmic muslim ban. thank you, chris. gibraltar has freed this iranian oil

tanker, which was seized by british royal marines last month, despite a request from the united states to halt the release. it was held because gibraltar suggested it was taking crude oil to syria, in breach of eu sanctions. but in this, a statement from the government of gibraltar, the chief minister outlined why he allowed the ship‘s release. as the gibraltar chronicle explains, here, he received "written assurances from the iranian government that the ship will not discharge its cargo in syria." let‘s hear from a lawyer who was in the supreme court when the decision to release the vessel was announced. what i can report is that the chiefjustice was shown documents to the effect that the chief minister had to give a notice of the ship no longer is a specified ship within the provisions of the eu sanctions. and as it is no longer such a specified ship,

there is no cause for its arrest and therefore the arrest has lapsed immediately. it‘s elapsed. it is already been released. in legal terms, from the minute that thejudge made his order, literally minutes ago, the ship is no longer within jurisdiction. the release of the ship was delayed because of this intervention from the us. this is from the government of gibraltarwho said... but gibraltar‘s chiefjustice now says no us application is currently before the court. and as the gibraltar chronicle again explains, "it is not clear at this stage when the ship will sail from gibraltar, or whether the us will formally apply to the court to detain it before that happens." and this is the response from the iranian foreign minister. he says "the us attempted to abuse the legal system to steal our property on the high seas. this piracy attempt is indicative

of the trump administration‘s contempt for the law." let‘s get more on this, kasra naji from bbc persian was in the court in gibraltar. the department ofjustice in the us had sent an e—mail to the local authorities, to the attorney general, to detain the ship and hand over control to the americans because of these allegations. but that was not formally communicated to the court. so the application did not go before the court as an application towards the judge to attend to. so i guess it is open to debate how that happened, but at the end of the day, it seems that this tanker has been released, and i‘m sure there will be a lot of to and fro between britain and the us over this, whether it was done correctly

or for what reason the ship was let go. let‘s get some background to this, because this tanker is seen as a pawn in a standoff between iran and the west, which began in may when four tankers were hit by blasts in the gulf of oman. iran denied us claims its forces had planted mines on the vessels. on the 4th ofjuly the iranian oil tanker grace one was seized by british royal marines near gibraltar. the response came onjuly 19th when iran‘s revolutionary guard seized the british—flagged oil tanker stena impero in the strait of hormuz, that is still being held. the bbc‘s bahman kalbasi is in new york, he told me about the response we‘re seeing from iran. from their perspective, two points they have made consistently throughout this standoff has been proven, and one

is that there was no legal basis for the seizure to begin with, because even if this oil was going to syria, that is european sanctions for its own members and it doesn‘t apply to countries that are not members of the eu. so just the fact it has been released even though there is supposedly a commitment that it does not go to syria, nevertheless, it proves their perspective and their view. secondly, they claim that this was mainly done on behest of the trump administration and john bolton, trump‘s national national security adviser, in the last minute hail mary attempt by the trump administration to block this release last night by trying to get america‘s legal point of view heard in this court, also proves that initial claim that it was in fact america behind it all and london got played by washington at the end by pressure

by washington and put in to seize this tanker and try to come in at the end to seated itself and prevented from being released. they probably feel pretty good and the foreign minister made that very clear in the tweets we have seen in the last few hours. calling it an attempt by the united states to steal iranian property in the high sea. if this tanker does go free, what effect might that have on the general state of tension between iran and the west? we have only moved in one direction in the recent months. that has been escalation and more escalation. especially after donald trump pulled out of the iran nuclear deal and reimposed those sanctions on the economy of 80 million people. iran has been responding in kind by ratcheting it up in the region in the persian gulf and elsewhere,

now this is may be the first time we have seen a de—escalation and stepping back from the brink, so it is a welcome news in that sense, that both sides of iran and mainly iran and us in this case, the united kingdom getting caught in between or acting on behalf of the united states from iran‘s perspective, either way, there is now an off ramp that both sides have decided to take, and hopefully this will result in the uk tanker being released in iran and that will help de—escalate things furthermore. stay with us on outside source — still to come... see the moment pilots managed to safely land this airbus in a moscow field — after it hit a flock of birds. facial recognition systems being used in the development around kings cross train station are to be investigated by the uk‘s data—protection watchdog.

the information commissioner a little bit denham says the use of the technology "should concern us all". big brother watch says the area needs legislation. i think it is extremely concerning but potentially not surprising seeing as we but potentially not surprising seeing as we seen but potentially not surprising seeing as we seen the police forces in the uk flawlessly using this authoritarian surveillance technology for almost three years now. the fact there has been no political decision—making on this politician in peace at passover dealing with this for the entire period, we have been calling on them to ta ke period, we have been calling on them to take serious action and called on the icy out to take action on this over a year ago and we have seen how it can be used against ethnics minorities and people with mental health problems and examples were innocent members of the public who have declined to be scanned by these cameras have been stopped by the police come at us massively inaccurate and around 90 to 95% inaccurate. and there is a very serious issue around discrimination.

this is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. our main story... israel has barred two us must win congresswomen from entering the country... a move encouraged by president trump, who‘s called them a ‘disgrace‘. the women have been critical of israel in the past, supporting a boycott over its treatment of palestinians. also making news on the bbc world service... the nepalese government is set to introduce new rules for climbing mount everest after 11 deaths on the mountain this year. they include minimum standards mountaineering experience, and a proposed minimum fee of 35,000 dollars. it‘s official — scientists in the uk sayjuly this year was the hottest month ever recorded. the record—warmth shrank arctic and antarctic sea ice to historic lows. two british triathletes have been disqualified from an olympic qualifier for crossing

the finish line hand—in—hand. jess learmonth and georgia taylor—brown broke a rule stating athletes who tie will be disqualified if they don‘t make an effort to get ahead. an amazing story coming out of russia — where the pilots of this airbus have been hailed heros, after managing to safely land it in a field of corn in moscow. there were 233 people on board — at least 7a were hurt — some quite seriously — but everyone survived. the ural airlines flight had just taken off when it hit a flock of gulls. this is a picture taken from a passenger video — if you look closely you can see some of the birds, moments before they were sucked into the engine. the airbus was heading to crimea — but it made the emergency landing in the field with no working engines and no landing gear. let‘s show you the moment the plane landed — you might notice how quiet the plane

is — everyone holding their breath — until touchdown. screaming. the kremlin says the pilots will receive state awards soon for saving the life of every person on board. passengers agree they deserve a lot of praise. translation: we have just crashed. but those pilots were amazing. full respect of them for getting us down. suddenly, something happened. we all thought that we have fallen into a whole. when we landed it was a hard blow. we must pay tribute to the pilot because given the situation, he landed the plane as softly as possible. translation: just after they take off, i don‘t know how many metres we

we re off, i don‘t know how many metres we were from the ground then i heard a sound like... it‘s being compared to the so—called ‘miracle on the hudson‘ — you might remember this ten years ago when this us airways flight splash—landed on the hudson river in new york city shortly after take off — after it too hit a flock of birds. but while in russia the crew are being hailed heros — in ukraine they all have been added to this blacklist on a website for the a ukrainian non—government organisation, which is associated with the country‘s security services. it has a photo of all the crew — look — this man is in a pilot‘s uniform — and accuses them of "making illegal crossings over the ukraine state border". remember, russia annexed ukraine‘s crimea peninsula in 2014 — which was condemned internationally. steve rosenberg has been following the story from moscow. russian state tv is calling this a miracle. i think really we should be talking

about the skill of the pilots who were able to bring down this airbus in a cornfield with a bump but basically safely. and the more than 230 passengers and crew were able to get out of that plane alive, quite astonishing when you think about what happened. many of the passengers who got out of that plane say they were very glad to be alive. one woman said there was a stony silence as the plane came down to land. and she was very relieved to get out of that plane alive. and when you think actually how much bad news there has been from russia over the last few weeks, this month in fact, we heard about fires and floods, arms depots exploding, the explosion last week in the far north of russia, that led to a spike in radiation, i think russians are pleased today at least to have a good news story and a happy end. what a story. the raging us—china trade war is having little effect

on the bottom line of two retail giants, one from each of these massive economies. sales for china‘s biggest e—commerce company aliba ba rose a better—than—expected 42% to $16.3 billion in the three months tojune. and in the us, walmart has raised its forecast for business this year after recording 20 quarters — that‘s five conscutive years — of growth in the us. samira hussain is in new york... one chinese and one american company — both doing well. weren‘t they supposed to be hurt by the trade war? yes. of course. we look at the earnings of these two massive companies in the retail world and each of the respective countries, it really seems to be bucking that trend. a few issues here. one, the bigger the company, the more able they are at withstand any sort of difficulty with regards to the trade war between the united states and china. it is really smaller companies that are really going to

get hit harder. in the case of walmart, they knew these terrorists we re walmart, they knew these terrorists were coming and so they were able to stockpile a lot more inventory and because they are so big, they are able to put a lot more pressure on the factories they work with and the companies that they work with to try and squeeze a little more out of them. they were able to do quite a few things to try and offset these kinds of difficulty that they wear hacked getting. with allie baba, what is amazing about their result is that it shows that despite the trade work, the chinese consumer is still of really active. —— with alibaba. a still of really active. —— with aliba ba. a ready still of really active. —— with alibaba. a ready to spend. let's talk about the trade war somewhere. we have been hearing from beijing a warning or retaliation following the latest us tariffs on chinese imports. but then president trump replied to that in a radio interview, saying any deal would have to be on the us‘s terms. all this has rattled the already volatile markets.

back to samira again. lots of rhethoric to and fro but has anything actually changed 7 well, no. there is no trade agreement between the two countries, there doesn‘t seem to be one that will be inked anytime soon. the next step is there will be more discussions between the chinese delegation in the american delegation. sometime in september. other than that, it is just a lot of rhetoric going to end fro it if you are asking a question about the financial markets and how they are reacting, it is certainly not what we saw yesterday. when the dow plugs some 800 points, we see the markets are upjusta some 800 points, we see the markets are upjust a wee some 800 points, we see the markets are up just a wee smidgen and are pa rt are up just a wee smidgen and are part of that has to do with how well walmart has performed. thank you. more than 100 billion bananas

are eaten every year globally. but could they now be under threat from a fungal disease, which has arrived in south america — the world‘s biggest exporter of the fruit — after devastating crops in asia? colombia has declared a national state of emergency following confirmation that so—called "panama disease" has appeared in its plantations. michael barker is the editor of fresh produce journal. .. this is a moment that producers in south america have been dreading really. it is causing significant problems in asia and i have been to many conferences with the latin american banana industry have been discussing their fears in preparation so that it could finally reach them and they hope this day wasn‘t going to come. but i think they knew at the back of their minds it would. now is the case in moving to the next age which is preventative measures, phytosanitary measures and trying to prevent the spread of it back

to farms in columbia. that it has already been found in. it has yet been found in any of the other major producing companies there. such as costa rica or ecuador. if it can be contained, it doesn‘t have to be such a serious problem. it is a case of monitoring and trying to prevent the further spread of it. there‘s increasing amount of work being done in this area, the number of scientific articles has gone up massively over the last few years. the problem is bananas are pretty much a monoculture. only one major variety, commercially grown around the world. the kavendish. with a lack of genetic diversity, it makes it much more difficult to create single solutions. so although there is a suite of options that are available to help mitigate the impact of it, there is not yet one single silver bullet that can prevent the disease. let‘s remind you of our top story. israel has blocked the visit of these two us democratic congresswomen — after president donald trump encouraged it. the two women are ilhan omar and rashida tlaib, part of this group called the squad.

they were involved in a racism row with president trump last month, after he tweeted that they should go back to where they came from. rashida tlaib is of palestinian origin and was planning to visit israel and the palestinian territories this weekend. mr trump tweeted. .. israel initially agreed to the visit — but has now reversed its decision. israel‘s deputy foreign minister tzipi hotovely has tweeted... bds stands for ‘boycott, divestment and sanctions‘ — it‘s a movement that urges a complete boycott of israel over its policies towards the palestinians. i will be back in a few minutes for

more. stay with us. hello. good evening. one of the main world weather stories is a severe tropical storm across which made la ndfall tropical storm across which made landfall on the early hours in southwestern japan. the professor is a mountainous region but you get the idea. 700 mm of rain. —— prefecture. more widely lower lying areas, 300 to 500 mm will get high landslide risk and flash flood risk and those rough conditions at sea. what large ways battering the coast. moving through fairly quickly this storm now that has made landfall and p°ppin9 now that has made landfall and popping out into the sea ofjapan predicted to give wet weather to korea and to northeast and parts of china following the heels of a storm over the weekend. clearly, the scope for more very wet weather making his

way right across japan, the storm predicted to come back into northern parts as we head towards the weekend. behind it, the heat returns ahead at ahead of it record—breaking cute as well. exceptional brown across northeastern parts of asia, in the coming few days. it is a little quieter at heading towards australia. high pressure with us for a large part of australia. these weather systems running the bite, bringing some further outbreaks of rain and rather chilly winds behind. pushing some wintry weather across new zealand now friday into saturday. snow flurries here to lower levels. a taste of winter once again. the rain is the concern across northwestern states of india. we‘ve had the second monsoon trough in the space of five to ten days crossing across northern areas, and then just becoming slow—moving, a few more days of insignificant rain andi few more days of insignificant rain and i hundred millimetres of rain could fall to my flash flooding in landslide remains very high risk for

this part of the world. just the monsoon season but it is been very exceptional. we have had some dangerous heat across the us which culminated in severe storms. which will continue through thursday. that is tornado risk, large—scale, damaging winds, they are slowing all that, the humidity has slowly eased away. it will build further west was storms across the canadian prairies. big storms on this weather system crossing the balkans and eastwards. this next one following giving some shower some sandwich of dry weather in between moving to the low country for friday and more wet and windy weather bills and to the united kingdom and then crosses toward scandinavia leaving his way the potential for more scandinavia leaving his way the potentialfor more rain. and so scandinavia leaving his way the potential for more rain. and so very strong winds and gale force winds, windy for the time of the year. it will feel cooler. still the heat over the weekend in northern europe and for more on the uk, stay tuned,

more and half an hour.

hello, i‘m karin giannone, this is outside source. israel bars two us muslim congresswomen from entering the country — a move encouraged by president trump. the women have been critical of israel in the past, supporting a boycott over its treatment of palestinians. signed, sealed but not yet delivered — jeremy corbyn‘s plan to prevent a no—deal brexit is opposed by key politicians. the incredible findings at missionjurassic, we‘ll take you to one of the biggest dinosaur graveyards in the world. and the female football stars taking their fight for equal pay to the courtroom.

the manoeuvering in britain — by some — on how to avoid leaving the eu without a deal continues. the labour leader, jeremy corbyn, has asked opposition party leaders and rebels from the ruling conservative party to help him topple boris johnson‘s government through a vote of no confidence. in this letter, he suggests replacing the current administration with what he called "a strictly time limited temporary government", led by himself. mr corbyn explained how his plan would work. i hope they will all support the notion of no confidence i will put it, and that will ensure this government then cannot continue with this had long pursuit of the nokia brexit and that would mean a ca reta ker brexit and that would mean a caretaker government led by labour, which would be a government in order to prevent a nokia brexit and bring about general elections the people

of this country can decide their own future. so how has the labour plan gone down? the leader of the anti—brexit liberal democrat party is not impressed. well, i am well, iam prepared well, i am prepared to work with them to secure peoples that can absolutely, but i recognise it doesn‘t come out and support across the house of commons and of course he has not been much used frankly on that issue at brexit today so it‘s difficult to trust what he says, because he‘s arguing that he wants to deliver a labour brexit and it doesn‘t matter what you put on it, brexit will be disastrous for the country. but jo swinson has now sent this tweet, offering to "meetjeremy corbyn to discuss how we can work together on a deliverable plan to stop no—deal, including the option of uniting behind an mp who can command a majority in the house." what next? let‘s speak to rob watson. what are the options? i should paint the big picture first, here‘s the weird thing for

lots of people watching wherever they are, and that is there is theoretically a majority in parliament against the idea of a no—deal brexit, but the issue is turning back to some sort of practical plan. and that is where the difficulty lies, and so far i just cannot quite see at this point and piece coalescing around jeremy corbyn because he‘s a deeply polarising figure and very toxic to many nonlabor politicians. frankly he‘s quite toxic to sun in his party, so we are sort of still in that key place which is a big question in british politics, can mps block a no—deal brexit? theoretically yes, do we know how they would do it or if they will? know. simple answer there, talk us through the calendar of the next few weeks if you‘d like, when does it get going again? it gets going again

on september three at mps come back from their holidays i should say by the way, borisjohnson and his closest days and haven‘t been on holiday and all they been preparing for a nokia brexit instead. at september three is when mps come back on the majority of them and that‘s when it gets interesting because we get into a nitty—gritty of the question, which is kinda sort of the question, which is kinda sort of theoretical majority against a no—deal brexit somehow overcome all the difficult across party working in britain to block a nokia brexit. of course there‘s another problem on top of that. and that is that it‘s what you may call the coalition and anti—no dealers. they want lots of different things in the long term, so some of them would just like to stop brexit altogether, preferably through a second referendum. some would like another general election likejeremy corbyn, would like another general election like jeremy corbyn, and would like another general election likejeremy corbyn, and others think actually, i do not mind brexit, but he needs to be done with a deal. that‘s when it the other reasons

they are having problems deciding on how to block boris johnson they are having problems deciding on how to block borisjohnson because they cannot agree on the long—term goal. thank you very much, rob watson there. an international team of scientists are excavating one of the biggest dinosaur graveyards in the world. the dig — in wyoming in the us — has been dubbed mission jurassic. and the teams could uncover more than 100 dinosaurs buried at the site — and maybe even some new species. it‘s fair to say the experts are more than a little excited. this is just this isjust one this is just one at the mission jurassic quarries and in front of me is an amazing scout and the dinosaur, it‘s one of the longnecked long—tailed dinosaurs, barrel body and tiny head. but this is the vertebrae, the backbones that are still connected together running down and back again on themselves. and it shows that when this anime was rolled along by the current, it was rolled along by the current, it was still held together by tissue and sinew. and one thing that‘s

really exciting is the pelvis, and as even the socket which i could put my fist into where that beemer would have articulated. but all of this mass would have been rolled together in one cataclysmic event at 150 million years ago. and with it, would have been logged as such as the beautiful fossilized one over there, which absolutely defined this deposit as being a logjam with dinosaurs. these dinosaurs were massive — you can see that some of them would have weighed up to 60,000 kilograms — that‘s more than a boeing 737. our global science correspondent rebecca morelle visited the dig site. they dig is like going back in time. a meat eating a la sarris is not here, and heard the plant eating on this landscape. before that, there was a vast and linda c. marine reptiles were abundant in the water.

parry a are sifting through sandstone. victoria is helping to solve a long—standing ministry. these dinosaurs were eating things we consider to be nutritionally poon we consider to be nutritionally poor, like conifer experience and as i cats. we would like to be able to understand how they keep his food and still got to be the enormous sizes that we find an. together, there could be more than 100 different dinosaurs here. but it will take at least 20 years to get them out of the ground. i‘m joined now by emma bernard, from the natural history museum, who has also been out to wyoming as part of the dig effort. how painstaking is the process? it was to find to be out there. and pick up the animals that were about 150 million years ago. i could be incredible, uncovering these bones

and realising no one had seen them for all those millions and millions of years. it really wise, because there could be several days where we found nothing new, which can be frustrating, but as soon as you find your first fossil, frustrating, but as soon as you find yourfirst fossil, you‘re frustrating, but as soon as you find your first fossil, you‘re the first person to have ever seen that‘s that‘s at the end. so gives you like a buzz and i think of achievement and encourages you to keep telling. how painstaking is this process i‘m sure you get the urge to uncover as quick as possible but you have to be careful. very true, we start off with a large machinery and then we get friendly with buckets and spades living tonnes of tonnes of rock and went to get to the apostles themselves, we start is this process i‘m sure you get the urge to encompass quick as possible but you have to be careful. very true, week start off with a large machinery and then we get friendly with buckets and spades living tonnes of tonnes of rock and went to get to the a postles of rock and went to get to the apostles themselves, we start to use find tools like brushes and even dental tools just to scrape away the rock and then to help expose the a postles. rock and then to help expose the apostles. when you get these fossils out, what can they tell you about weapons were like back then with creatures and lives were like in the

environment at the time? we are looking for the dinosaurs but also the animals that lived alongside them. so it‘s mammals that revolved around this time, and the plants that they were eating as well. and and the same site, we have various river systems and deposits that are 160 million —— million years old and within that we can find a fish and even insects are being perfectly preserved. so we can look at these different organisms, including rocks they been laid down then and you can start to build up the environment if they were living in, what the temperature is like. it helps us look for it into the future to help predict where climate and climate change could go next. going back to the size of some of these dinosaurs we saw the figure, 60,000 kilos, heavier than a boeing 737. it's really difficult to get your head around the figures honestly, make the thigh bone of one of these dinosaurs with the longnecked and talc is actually taller than me. so,

yeah, just the pie bonus. how did they get so big what are they eating? they are eating lots and lots of plants and at the time... so they can get that they eating solid? basically vegetarian diet, and lots of ferns and conifers. as you mentioned, you also may have found new species but also mammals we don‘t know about. new species but also mammals we don't know about. yes, said this is a time of middlejurassic where some of the first mammals are starting to explore. and at this time, they were very small almost like shrew size. so what we have been doing is like collecting lots and lots of kilograms and tonnes of sediment, and put that through s machine getting out tiny little fossils and we had to spend hours looking to pick him up but that‘s where the fun stuff that is because material that they haven‘t even been looked at. say you have giant fossils and really tiny ones telling you

everything about past and future. thank you very much. stay with us on outside source — still to come... the female us football stars taking their fight for equal pay to the courtroom after mediation talks broke down. police investigating the death of 15—year—old nora quoirin in malaysia say they‘ve found no evidence of violence. the teenagerfrom london was found dead ten days after she disappeared while on holiday. her body was found beside a stream about 2.5 kilometers from the jungle resort of dusun on tuesday. a postmortem examination has concluded that she died from internal bleeding probably caused by hunger and stress. her parents say their hearts are broken. howard johnson sent this report from malaysia. after nora quoirin‘s body was discovered on tuesday, a senior pathologist was dispatched from the malaysian capital kuala lumpur to carry out

a postmortem examination of the london teenager. today, at a police press conference, the first details of how she died were revealed. translation: the real cause of death was internal bleeding of the intestines which may have been caused by not having any food over a long period of time. the state police chief went on to stress he believes there was no suspicion of foul play. nora is believed to have died about two to three days before her body was found. no element of abduction or kidnapping. the teenager, who lived with her parents in london, had been missing for ten days. the family have always insisted, given nora‘s learning difficulties, it is very unlikely she would have walked off alone. the malaysian police have always treated nora‘s disappearance as a missing persons case.

behind this gate is the road that leads to the palm oil plantation where nora‘s body was discovered on tuesday. today, the family said that they would like people to end the speculation about how nora died and to give them the space to grieve in peace. although today‘s police announcement will have gone some way to clarifying how nora died, the circumstances surrounding her disappearance still leaves many questions to be answered. howard johnson, bbc news, pantai, malaysia. this is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. our lead story is... israel has barred two us muslim congresswomen from entering the country, a move encouraged by president trump, who‘s called them a disgrace. the women have been critical of israel in the past, supporting a boycott over its treatment of palestinians. china has hit out at what it describes as international interference in its politics — over the ongoing turmoil in hong kong.

china‘s ambassador to the uk spoke in london today. hong kong is part of china. no foreign country should interfere in hong kong‘s internal affairs. i urge those foreign forces it to respect china possible sovereignty and security. immediately stop interfering in hong kong to and stop interfering in hong kong to and stop interfering in hong kong to and stop interfering in chinese international affairs, stop aligning with violent offences. they should not misjudge the situation and go down the wrong path. otherwise, they will lift the stone only to drop it on their own feet. he also said some british politicians think "their hands are still in the colonial days" after the uk called for "calm from all sides" amid violence between police and pro—democracy protesters. president trump has also weighed in, urging his chinese counterpart to solve the political crisis.

"i have zero doubt that if president xi wants to quickly and humanely solve the hong kong problem, he can do it." he followed it up with another tweet saying "if president xi would meet directly and personally with the protesters, there would be a happy and enlightened ending to the hong kong problem. i have no doubt!" meanwhile, chinese state tv has released an interview with one of hong kong‘s best known faces — martial arts starjackie chan. i feel the pride of being a chinese wherever i go. the chinese national flag is respected by people all over the world. i also deeply feel that security, stability, and peace are like the air, you never know how precious it is until you lose it. hong kong is my birthplace, my hometown, and china is my home country. i love my country, i love my hometown. i really hope that hong kong will return to peace as soon as possible. this has also come from

chinese state tv today. cctv says residents in hong kong visited a local police station with hand—written cards and gifts to show their support for officers — and held placards saying "no violence". here‘s what they said. what are the core values in hong kong? they are democracy, freedom, fairness and justice. that is a democracy for the right to us to beat me up i did not agree with what they say? is it freedom to stop residents and tourists from going home and leaving the subway station or airport? hong kong has been in consta nt or airport? hong kong has been in constant dispute in recent days, we really cannot stand it any more, residents fighting against acts of violence and support the police because hong kong police are the greatest police in the world. and we know chinese soldiers have been gathering at the shenzhen bay sports center — just across the bay from hong kong.

here are all the military trucks parked outside while inside the stadium, soldiers have been doing drills — here you can see them practising detaining someone. on social media chat rooms — used to organise rallies — many demonstrators are calling for a new strategy to combat an increasingly tough response from the authorities. this is what protest leaders said today. political oppression now manifests as police excessively brutal clea ra nce as police excessively brutal clearance operations and selective law enforcement. this poisons what used to be the hong kong immaculate public security records, as fear spreads within the community. with citizens and visitors as —— like babbling at the reality that mobsters are babbling at the reality that mobsters a re allowed babbling at the reality that mobsters are allowed to roam free and that police to place violence without context limitations. for more i spoke to zhao in fung from bbc chinese —

based in washington. it's it‘s likely china will see it as you last telling their affairs. also i think china would much prefer donald trump previous positions because a few weeks ago he called the protesta nt few weeks ago he called the protestant riots and also trap said it‘s a free china to deal with hong kong. and actually china praised him for that. we have seen the chinese ambassador to the uk with strong words today. delete get a sense that beijing is unsettled by all of this? we can see and very clear trend of china ramping up its propaganda, its condemnation of protest. i think it‘s reflective that china is under a lot of pressure. its propaganda machine is also running at its biggest capacity to counter at the rhetoric on international media. how worried his china about how a piece seen around the world?|j worried his china about how a piece seen around the world? i think china is pretty worried at the moment, and

also ina is pretty worried at the moment, and also in a month and a half, it would anniversary of the of china which would be a big celebration that beijing certainly does not want news about hong kong overshadowing that. but china will also understand that ifa but china will also understand that if a military intervention is involved, it will face even greater international pressure and international pressure and international sanction, and i would be devastating for the chinese economy. it‘s also hard to imagine how the city of hong kong and the whole country of china could ever heal from back. billy whole country of china could ever healfrom back. billy get whole country of china could ever heal from back. billy get a new sense of how beijing is going to play and how things unfold over the next days and weeks in hong kong? we still need to wait and see. it seems after tuesday, tension in hong kong is cooling down a little bit, but the protesters a re is cooling down a little bit, but the protesters are planning another massive demonstration on the weekend, and that would be a critical moment to test every

party‘sjudgement. it looks like female us football stars megan rapinoe and christen press will be taking the fight for equal pay to the courtroom after mediation talks between the us women‘s national team and us soccer broke down. here they are talking on cbs this morning. it's it‘s very simple for us. and it‘s not just about us, it‘s very simple for us. and it‘s notjust about us, and notjust about this moment. we are trying to do this on behalf of women everywhere to be treated respectfully and paid it lawfully. and be issued isjust equality. so that when we played a game we are compensated the same that if a man like to play that game. in march, 28 players from the world cup champions filed a lawsuit against their own governing body alleging years of what they said was institutionalized gender discrimination. the team are seeking equal pay with their male counterparts. meghan rapinoe is one of the team‘s co—captains, here‘s what she had to say.

we came ready and prepared, and willing to have the conversation. we willing to have the conversation. we will not accept anything less than equal pay, so maybe they felt that that was that posture, but i think for us, i think we work very earnest and hot willing to have this conversation and we were ready to do that and we do not feel like they did. the us have won the women‘s world cup four times — at the inaugural 1991 tournament in china, the 1999 event hosted by the us, in canada four years ago and finally in july. the men‘s team made the quarter—finals in 2002, while their best finish remains the third place in 1930. and take a look at this article on our website — we‘ve taken a look at the prize money for the men‘s and women‘s world cups — and men are awarded ten times as much. let‘s go to our sports centre, john watson is there.

what did they want from it, is it very simplejust what did they want from it, is it very simple just equality? it's what they have always wanted to be paid equally amount as the 19 it‘s about the bonuses they receive higher as he pointed out there compared to the women‘s team. just using an example up women‘s team. just using an example up till the quarter finals of the world cup, each fema player would have earned around $90,000 in bonuses, compared back to that wet —— men‘s team that they reached the same point at the competition. it would have been well over half $1 million. so it shows the considerable difference and that‘s what they are pushing us soccer for an agreement they will pay the same amount as the men‘s team, but in that mediation today you see the talks broke down at a very early stage and it seems both parties are no closer to reaching any kind of agreement. we have a clue what led to an early breakdown of the

mediation process? i think it's that fundamental sticking point, win lose or draw, they want to earn the same amount as at the men‘s team in those respective matches and it seems clearly us soccer are not willing to bind and they made the point with figures claiming that the women‘s tea m figures claiming that the women‘s team have been paid more over a 10—year period up till 2018 and they say they have paid $34 million compared to the men‘s team of 26 million, the lemon steam has sat there skewing the figures it‘s not a fair representation, and fundamentally what they want is equal pay and equal bonuses as similarto equal pay and equal bonuses as similar to the men‘s team. the point that they are making is that this is a bigger point. it‘s about their pay, but also about social equality and appoint megan and kristin were trying to make today is that if you do not establish a financially equality first how will you ever have social inequality as well? briefly, do we know how much support they‘re getting from the american

public? huge amount of support, i think it was clear at the world cup final at the women‘s world cup when they had people shouting about equal pay from the stands and those encouraging us soccer to make a stand to support their team following the success they‘ve had on the pitch. there is a huge amount of goodwill in the united states for the lemon steam and that of course will not necessarily translate with the discussions ongoing between both parties and clearly there still a fundamental stumbling block, huge difference between both parties and as yet, no it‘ll be over and as things look at this stage could well be settled in a courtroom. things look at this stage could well be settled in a courtroomlj things look at this stage could well be settled in a courtroom. i was going to ask you in one sentence at the next step is probably quite. yeah, who knows where it‘ll go. i think for the women‘s team, that success is still driving the team forward and that‘s fundamentally the key. they would not want any distractions on the pitch and would simply be games coming up, huge

tournaments as well, they will want tournaments as well, they will want to ensure they can still perform at that level... sorry i believe it, for watching. hello, you may be thinking august so far not really feeling like august, and one of the reasons is the jet stream, win high up in the atmosphere driving the weather pattern, it‘s farther south than normally expect for this time of year and like normally expect for this time of yearand likea normally expect for this time of year and like a conveyor belt it‘s pushing areas of the pressure off the atlantic towards the uk and we‘ve got another one to deal with through friday. a quite deep area blood pressure, once again isobar close together so not to sweat, windy as well. rain initially across scotla nd windy as well. rain initially across scotland and northern ireland in northwest and southwest england and wales, going southeast of the day. turns dry and bright across northern ireland scotland, far north of england i‘ll be at the blustery showers, rain likely to linger
