The final game of matchday 6 of the Premier League gets underway later as Southampton Travel to bournemouth. Russell martins newly promoted Saints Side have struggled to get going this season, with just one point so far. But the hosts are coming in to this one having suffered back to back defeats against liverpool and chelsea. And Andoni Iraola knows how important this match is to the fans. These kind of games are definitive, and every time you play, you have to take the most you can. I dont know how to call it, if its a derby, i dont know how you say it here, but its always a game that everyone wants to win, and also, considering the position in the standings, i think its a very important game for us. Its a result to shake up the womens rugby world order. Ireland have secured a sensational last gasp 29 27 win over world champions New Zealand in their Opening Wxvi Match in vancouver.

Tight End Travis Kelce has received plenty of criticism of late having put on statistically the least productive three Game Start in his Nfl Career with some critics claiming he was over The Hill as he approaches his 35th birthday. But he lead the chiefs with seven catches for 89 yards and is still a huge figure for the franchise according to Star Quarterback Patrick mahomes. Travis just wants to win at The End of the day, and that is what you take for granted in this league. We have had a great offence and we have done these cool things, but at The End of the day it is about winning, and he is a true leader when it comes to that. He just wants to win the football game. And thats all the sport for now. More now on israels conflcts in The Middle East. Benjamin netanyahu has warned iranians that its Country is moving closer to the abyss. In a video, addressed to what he called The Noble Persian People he said their moment of freedom would come a lot sooner than people think. It came as Israels Defence Minister hinted that the army is preparing for a Ground Incursion into southern lebanon. Lets speak now to alon pinkas, the former israeli Consul General in new york. He was foreign Policy Adviser to the israeli Prime Minister, ehud barak, and the former Chief Of Staff to four israeli foreign ministers. Thanks forjoining us. In terms of the comments from Benjamin Netanyahu in the last hour, aimed at iran, what did you make of that . I aimed at iran, what did you make of that . Aimed at iran, what did you make of that . I would rather comment make of that . I would rather comment on make of that . I would rather comment on Antoine Make of that . I would rather i comment on Antoine Griezmann retiring from international football, but this is a case of megalomania, since you asked. Israel took out the Upper Echelon of hezbollah� s Command And ControlApparatus And Israel thinks it is now deterring iran which it might be, but to the is making, promising the iranian people that they will be free, that is really a bad case of megalomania from netanyahu. He cannot back it up when he clearly has no idea how that is going to happen. Regime change is not Something Anyone is capable of doing, let alone israel regarding iran, so my only explanation to this is an outburst of arrogance. An outburst of arrogance. An alternative outburst of arrogance. An Alternative Explanation is that it is a deterrent . All eyes are on tehran and how they might respond to what has happened in the last few weeks with one of its proxies, hezbollah, and he said this at the un on friday, if you hit us, we will hit you. At the back of his mind is the possibility that iran takes some sort of action and raises the stakes and maybe that is what he is trying to warn them, be very careful in making a decision like that . He be very careful in making a decision like that . Decision like that . He is warning decision like that . He is warning them, decision like that . He is warning them, as decision like that . He is warning them, as are i decision like that . He is| warning them, as are the americans. There is a case to be made that netanyahu has been trying actively or proactively, rather, to tempt them into responding and to turn the 7th Of October almost a year ago into a regional war, thereby vindicating his narrative that this is a grand civilisational war, but on the other side, i do not think the iranians will fall into that trap and i do not think israel really wants that. A change of missiles could be potentially devastating to both countries and there is nothing to benefit and there is nothing to benefit and no advantages are no achievements that are conceivable. To achievements that are conceivable. Achievements that are conceivable. ,. , conceivable. To pick up on one side of that conceivable. To pick up on one side of that equation, conceivable. To pick up on one side of that equation, you side of that equation, you think it is a possibility that he is trying to lure iran into some kind of attack . So that israel could respond . It is some kind of attack . So that israel could respond . Israel could respond . It is a valid premise. Israel could respond . It is a valid premise. For israel could respond . It is a valid premise. For the israel could respond . It is a valid premise. For the last. Israel could respond . It is a i valid premise. For the last ten months, if you look at his rhetoric and his quotations with escalation regarding iran, assassinating the Revolutionary Guards officers in damascus and then assassinating or targeting then assassinating or targeting the leader of hamass political wing in tehran on the day. There is a case to be made that his ideal scenario, there is a case to be made that his idealscenario, iran there is a case to be made that his ideal scenario, iran is lured into this and the americans are drawn into this and he is turning the calamity of the 7th Of October into some kind of a strategic crime. That is not going to happen strategic triumph. It will not happen because iran, sars and it is for israelis to admit, they have been restrained as hard as it is for israelis to admit, they have been restrained. Some of the americans are thinking their best bet for Restraint And De escalation is right now iran rather than israel, and that is a very peculiar thing for me to say. A very peculiar thing for me to sa. , a very peculiar thing for me to sa. ,. ,. , say. That is almost turning the common accepted say. That is almost turning the common accepted logic say.

Very interesting point as Head. I know. Very interesting point as you Head. I know. Very interesting point. As you were Head. I know. Very interesting point. As you were making Head. I know. Very interesting| point. As you were making that point, the Washington Post is reporting that israel has told washington he is planning a limited Ground Operation in lebanon that could start imminently it is planning. This is reported by the Reuters News Agency and the Washington Post, so how would you assess the risks of that Ground Invasion if it does happen . Tremendous risks. They will be tremendous, but it depends how we define limited. The main threat from hezbollah is long range missiles and they still maintain a formidable capability of launching them. A limited incursion into southern lebanon, say 20 Kilometres North of the israeli border in the south lebanese area, this is not going to affect hezbollah� s ability to launch rockets, but what the idea is in terms of Military Planning is to create a buffer, security but we had the worst and very bad experiences with those buffer zones. You go in and you push Hezbollah North of the river which is not that a big river, it is not like the River Thames or the hudson river, but you push them north of the river, and then when they stay there it becomes a war of attrition, and i honestly fail to see what a Ground Operation would produce other than fatalities on the israeli side. 0ne Fatalities on the israeli side. One more sentence, if i may, and again, it really goes down it boils down to what the definition of ltd is. If it is a five kilometre wide incursion to clean up hezbollah outposts, 0k, to clean up hezbollah outposts, ok, you go in and you go out, It Isa ok, you go in and you go out, it is a Search And Destroy type of operation, using the old vietnam term. But if it is bigger than that, i can only see risks and i do not see benefits. I5 see risks and i do not see benefite benefits. Is it likely to be bi aer benefits. Is it likely to be bigger given benefits. Is it likely to be bigger given the benefits. Is it likely to be bigger given the stated i bigger given the stated objective he has repeated now so many times since a week ago, ten days ago, that he insists now their aim ten days ago, that he insists now theiraim is ten days ago, that he insists now their aim is the 60,000 people who fled their homes in Northern Israel will be allowed to actually go back to those communities . To actually go back to those communities . The weight he is presenting communities . The weight he is presenting it. Communities . The weight he is presenting it, that communities . The weight he is presenting it, that is communities . The weight he is presenting it, that is only presenting it, that is only partial because those civilians have relocated and they have done so not only because of hezbollah� s proximity to the border with israel but also because of the Missile And Rocket range which is far beyond, Fat North of the Military Zone which may or may not be the israeli objective in obtaining far north. I honestly dont know what they mean by a limited incursion into South Lebanon but you should always remember, these statements and the planning stages, it is always theoretical. 0nce stages, it is always theoretical. Once this begins it starts rolling and the fog of waugh and all those cliches that we often use, and there is a this Calculation And Someone misfired and before you know it it escalates way beyond what anyone anticipated or planned for. The fog of war. Irate anyone anticipated or planned for. The fog of war. We have not to for. The fog of war. We have got to leave for. The fog of war. We have got to leave it for. The fog of war.

The un Refugee Agency says more than hundred thousand people have fled to syria from lebanon. The un 5 Refugee Agency says more than a 100,000 people have fled to syria from lebanon since israels strikes against hezbollah intensified last week. The unhcr said most were syrian nationals, though a fifth were lebanese. Many had sought sanctuary in lebanon during syrias civil war. The agency 5 chief, filippo grandi, said numbers fleeing have doubled over the last two days. Lebanon 5 Prime Minister says as many as A Million people may now have been displaced across lebanon. Lets speak to gonzalo vargas llosa. He is the Unhcr Representative for syria. And hes on the Syria Lebanon Border helping people who have been displaced. How many people are coming and increasing on the list every day . Increasing on the list every da . ~ increasing on the list every da . ,. Increasing on the list every da . Mg ,. , day .

I am here on the syrian side of day . Thank you very much. I am here on the syrian side of the i here on the syrian side of the border with lebanon and i am speaking to you from a medical post set up by the Ministry Of Health which is being used to care for the sick and those who are exhausted from the journey from lebanon but also to take care of the injured because we have also seen quite a few people fleeing who were injured by the bombing, coming so into syria. Me and my colleagues and our partners over the last week, we have seen over 100,000 people, that is an estimate of 15,000 per day. It is about 60 syrians, and syrians have fled as a result of the 13 Year Conflict in syria and sought refuge in lebanon, that makes up refuge in lebanon, that makes up around 60 of the over 100,000 persons, and then the other 40 are lebanese who have fled their homes as a result of the Air Strikes and the bombing, and who are here to seek refuge.

There are three aspects, very quickly. A areas . There are three aspects, very quickly, a Border Areas . There are three aspects, very quickly, a Border Crossing L very quickly, a Border Crossing is not designed, it is not made to process 15,000 people per day, and normally to this border you would have a maximum of a few hundred people passing, so there is the issue of numbers. And a Border Crossing is also not designed for a humanitarian operation, so we would have to do miracles to manage to provide Water And Food and blankets, to those crossing through here. The third point is that you need to think, what are the syrians returning back to and what are the lebanese fleeing into here . This is a Country that has suffered its own conflict for more than 13 years, a Country which has been destroyed physically. I have travelled all over this Country and the level of destruction is just incredible. And its economy is absolutely devastated. Already there are 60 Million people in need of humanitarian aid even before this tragedy started six days ago. It is a Country that is going to have enormous difficulties in trying to provide support to those suffering from this new crisis. The last point, the humanitarian operation here was already severely underfunded, even before this latest crisis. Underfunded by 4. 5 billion and only 25 was funded before this latest crisis began. The challenges will be huge. Absolutely enormous. Gonzalo, we have got to leave it there, but thanks for outlining the enormous challenges you and your colleagues are facing. Thanks forjoining us. Around the world and across the uk. This is bbc news. A Bbc Investigation has discovered that multiple signs of slavery were missed after a criminal gang trafficked nine men from the Czech Republic who were then forced to work at a Mcdonalds Restaurant in the uk. 0ther Victims were enslaved and put to work at a factory supplying Bread Products to majorfood retailers. Jon ironmonger has the story. Police stay where you are rescuing Slavery Victims from a London House and a criminal operation lasting seven years. Got two in here. Just one in here. Translation it was terrible to wake up every morning and i didnt want to wake up. Id rather be dead. Forced to live in an attic and an unheated leaking outbuilding, victims were found legitimatejobs by a criminal gang, led by Brothers Ernest and zdenek drevenak, who referred to them as livestock. Nine were sent to work at this cambridgeshire mcdonalds, where they clocked up to 100 hours a week. Translation the managers didnt question the long hours i did. They would even ask me, are you happy to stay longer . Weve discovered that mcdonalds and the franchisees running the branch missed multiple opportunities to detect the crime. Job applications were completed by gang members, victims� wages paid into Bank Accounts controlled by the gang, and victims worked extreme hours. We use the term Red Flag to say this is an indicator that forced labour, modern slavery might be happening. And in my view, there were many Red Flags in this case which were missed. In a statement, mcdonalds told us they commissioned an independent review and with their franchisees, who unknowingly employed the victims of slavery, have taken action. Its almost ten years since then Home Secretary BaronessTheresa May introduced the modern Slavery Act. I think the case has raised some shocking questions about the approach being taken by some big companies. They need to look at their supply chains, they need to look at their processes. Do we need to enhance the modern Slavery Act . Yes, i think we do. You are under arrest for conspiracy to commit the offence of holding another in slavery. Ending years of misery for victims, in 2019, the Gang Masters were arrested in the uk and the Czech Republic. Translation that was the best feeling i have ever had. I was so happy it was over. While the criminal gang have been put on trial and put behind bars, their victims are still waiting for an apology from the companies who failed them. Jon ironmonger, bbc news, cambridge.

It is estimated that people who are victims of modern slavery are around us all the time in villages and cities, and we have a large percentage of our referrals come from london, and just under half of the referrals last year, 45 , came from london, and this is due to the fact that the criminals promoted Job Opportunities to somebody who is well educated with good qualifications, they see this job opportunity, they apply and when they come to london, thejob is not thejob they were expecting, or the job changes and they do not have a contract. The money they are receiving goes into the Bank Account of the criminal or if they are being used by an agency, The Agency receives that money, the individuals we support never receive the money they are entitled to and they work long hours and they are bound by debt and fear, not by chains, but by other means that the criminals hold them accountable for.

Theresa may has brought in new laws, of course. There are now appeals for those to be updated and strengthened as a result of this case. Thanks forjoining us. We will have more from The Middle East and the situation with so many different strands to talk about. We are expecting a News Conference with some of the Uk Families with hostages still being held. That is coming up. Hello. Its another wet day with low pressure firmly in charge, bringing some quite windy Weather Conditions as well for some of us. Weve still got some problems with flooding as well, and no wonder why this month has been extraordinary in terms of rainfall. South newington, weve had over four times the average rainfall and not far off double the previous September Rainfall record. It has been exceptionally wet and we still have a number of Flood Warnings in force. A couple of clusters, really, One Down towards the South West and another cluster of warnings in the midlands. The one bit of good news i have for you today is although there is more rain in the forecast, the heaviest Rain Isnt going to be affecting these areas and so we should start to see modest improvements i think in terms of the number of Flood Warnings, starting to come down. But that said, further north across Northern England, we are looking at some Heavy Rain here. We could see around 60 80mm of rain and it has been quite a wet month so far, so we could start to see some flooding issues build in across Northern England as we go on through the rest of today and overnight tonight. Then our area of low pressure works out into the north sea. It strengthens a bit and so could bring us gusts of wind into the 50 miles an hour across East Anglia, with more outbreaks of rain on the way here. Across the North And West of the uk, though, its a case of the weather slowly becoming a little bit quieter through the course of the night. Tuesdays forecast, then, more wet and windy weather for East Anglia and South East england. Otherwise, should see a fair bit of sunshine coming through across northern and western areas of the uk. A drier kind of day. In the sunshine, temperatures running a little bit above average in edinburgh, 13 is average for october, 14 in london is a little bit below par. So give ortake, were around about the average. For wednesday and into thursday as well, High Pressure then starts to take over. Now, we could still have the dribs and drabs of this Weather System affecting the far South East of england, still bringing some windy and rather cool Weather Conditions into East Anglia and the South East. But otherwise, with that area of high Pressure Building in, could be some Mist And Fog patches to start the day, but otherwise a drier spell of weather with more in the way of sunshine. And this sunnier, drier spell of Weather Looks like its going to hang around for the rest of this week, but into the weekend it turns wetter again and some of the rain could turn out to be pretty heavy this weekend.
