[00:01:00] Italian driver Kimi Antonelli makes makes history in Mexico as he becomes
[00:01:03] becomes Formula One's youngest ever
[00:01:06] ever world champion at 20. Welcome
[00:01:17] Welcome to the programme. Both Ukraine Ukraine and Russia say their emergency
[00:01:20] emergency alert apps have been hit hit by cyber attacks. Late on Sunday,
[00:01:24] Sunday, Ukraine warned that its air
[00:01:25] air alert app appeared to have been
[00:01:28] been compromised after citizens received received false notifications about
[00:01:31] about a radiological threat and other
[00:01:33] other attacks. Ukraine's Centre for for Strategic Communications blamed
[00:01:37] blamed Russia for the hack in a post post on its X account. It showed
[00:01:40] showed some of the alerts asking asking residents to disregard any
[00:01:44] any strange messages they might see see in the app, as well as warnings
[00:01:47] warnings of a radiological threat. threat. The false notifications warned
[00:01:50] warned of a chemical attack and even even possible street fighting in
[00:01:53] in Kyiv. The authorities say. Functionality
[00:01:56] Functionality in the app is gradually gradually being restored. Then early
[00:01:59] early this morning, Russia's Ministry Ministry of Emergency Situations
[00:02:02] Situations said its mobile app had had been subjected to what it called
[00:02:06] called a massive cyber attack. It It said this had resulted in the
[00:02:09] the distribution of fake information information to the public, and that
[00:02:12] that work was under way to fix the
[00:02:14] the vulnerability. Our Ukraine correspondent correspondent Dan Johnson explains
[00:02:17] explains how reliant people are on
[00:02:19] on these emergency alert apps. They're They're widespread, they're heavily
[00:02:23] heavily used and they are a good good back-up system because although
[00:02:26] although sirens sound in the streets streets when there is an air raid,
[00:02:29] raid, not everybody hears those. those. Not everybody has sirens.
[00:02:32] sirens. If they live somewhere a a bit more remote or on the edge
[00:02:36] edge of a city. So these apps are are heavily used and people do rely
[00:02:39] rely on them and they have been used used to getting these alerts because
[00:02:43] because there have been so many attacks attacks and they're used to taking
[00:02:46] taking action based on them. A siren siren goes off on your phone and
[00:02:50] and it tells you what is the threat.
[00:02:53] threat. Maybe a missile or a drone. drone. It gives you a sense of how how dangerous things are. There's
[00:02:56] There's two levels. It can either either be a yellow alert or a red
[00:02:59] red alert, and it'll give you a sense sense of exactly which area is is
[00:03:03] is under threat. So this is quite quite a sophisticated system that
[00:03:06] that people have grown used to relying
[00:03:07] relying on. But last night it started
[00:03:10] started issuing alerts that will will have unnerved people because
[00:03:14] because of the nature of how serious serious the threats it was describing
[00:03:17] describing nuclear war, chemical chemical attack, guerrilla warfare,
[00:03:21] warfare, fighting in the streets. streets. All these things were sent
[00:03:24] sent to people's phones at around
[00:03:27] around just before 1100 local time time last night, and those alerts
[00:03:30] alerts were in place in force for for more than an hour before all
[00:03:33] all clear messages followed and the
[00:03:36] the Air Force issued a statement statement saying that although those
[00:03:40] those alerts appeared genuine, they they were not based on a real threat
[00:03:43] threat and that people did not need need to panic. They've said the Ukrainian
[00:03:47] Ukrainian Air Force that they believe
[00:03:49] believe this was the result of enemy enemy influence. They're essentially
[00:03:52] essentially blaming Russian interference interference for this. But then the
[00:03:56] the Russians have said that they they suffered something similar not
[00:03:59] not long after. It's not clear if
[00:04:01] if these are linked, if that is the
[00:04:03] the same group that's hacked both both systems or one side hacking
[00:04:07] hacking the others in response. I've I've just seen one of the messages
[00:04:10] messages that was sent on the Russian Russian system that told Russians
[00:04:14] Russians that nuclear warheads had had been launched and that they needed
[00:04:17] needed to urgently stock up on food
[00:04:19] food ready for three weeks or using
[00:04:21] using some very strong language. language. They would be difficult.
[00:04:24] difficult. They would find it difficult difficult to survive. So this sort sort of thing has gone out on both
[00:04:28] both sides to both populations. People
[00:04:30] People are being urged not to be be unnerved by those messages that
[00:04:34] that went out last night. But the the authorities, at least here in in Ukraine, will be concerned that
[00:04:38] that people do still need to take take these warnings seriously when when they come because there's an
[00:04:42] an air raid alert in place this morning, morning, which appears to be genuine,
[00:04:45] genuine, and they'll still want people people to respect those alerts and
[00:04:48] and to take action needed to keep
[00:04:50] keep them safe. Dan Johnson in Kyiv.
[00:04:52] Kyiv. Peter Dickinson is the editor
[00:04:55] editor of Ukraine Alert at the Atlantic Atlantic Council, and he's in Kyiv
[00:04:58] Kyiv too. He told us more about last
[00:05:00] last night's alerts. The suspected
[00:05:03] suspected hack on the the air raid,
[00:05:05] raid, the Air Alarm app. You know, know, a fairly minor development
[00:05:09] development in some ways, but also also significant because everybody
[00:05:12] everybody relies on this app. It's It's absolutely crucial. It's a it's
[00:05:15] it's an essential tool for Ukrainians. Ukrainians. They you know, they live
[00:05:18] live their lives by it to a degree. degree. It gives you information information about the nature. It
[00:05:22] It gives you prior warning of air air raids. And it gives you information
[00:05:25] information about the location and and the nature of the threat. Is Is it drones? Is it ballistic missiles?
[00:05:29] missiles? You know, to what extent extent should you take precautions? precautions? Should you stop your
[00:05:32] your live your daily life? So I think, think, you know, many people understood
[00:05:36] understood very quickly that this this was some sort of a, you know,
[00:05:39] know, a hack. It wasn't a real warning
[00:05:41] warning of a coming nuclear war,
[00:05:44] war, but still the idea that it can can be hacked, that it's vulnerable
[00:05:47] vulnerable will damage will damage. damage. Faith in this will damage damage the credibility. And that
[00:05:51] that will create a sense of uncertainty. uncertainty. So it'll leave people, people, I think, feeling rather worried
[00:05:55] worried here. Can they trust this this information now? Can they trust
[00:05:58] trust this app? So not a good sign sign for Ukrainian you know, public
[00:06:01] public morale. Peter Dickinson from from the Atlantic Council as you
[00:06:05] you can see on your screen, there's
[00:06:07] there's a live page on this story
[00:06:09] story that you'll find on the BBC BBC News website, which will give
[00:06:13] give you a minute by minute updates updates about how the two countries
[00:06:17] countries are responding to those those attacks. Apparent attacks on
[00:06:21] on their alert apps. The US midterm
[00:06:25] midterm elections are just one day day away. This is the scene live
[00:06:28] live in Washington tomorrow. Millions Millions of voters across the country country will determine the balance
[00:06:31] balance of power in Congress. And And while the Democrats are widely
[00:06:35] widely predicted to flip the House House of Representatives, the Senate
[00:06:38] Senate is still up for grabs. And And there's been a last-minute twist
[00:06:41] twist in a key Senate race with the the loser of Michigan's Democratic
[00:06:45] Democratic primary representative representative Haley Stevens, endorsing
[00:06:48] endorsing the Republican nominee, nominee, Mike Rogers, instead of
[00:06:51] of her own party's candidate, Abdul
[00:06:53] Abdul El-Sayed. It comes after a a public feud between Mr Stevens
[00:06:57] Stevens and Mr El-Sayed about Israel, Israel, which led to the cancellation
[00:07:01] cancellation of public appearances appearances together just days before
[00:07:04] before tomorrow's election. Latest Latest polls put the Democrats just
[00:07:07] just ahead of the Republicans in in Michigan in one of the most important
[00:07:10] important Senate races of the year. year. Our North America correspondent
[00:07:14] correspondent will Grant sent this this update from Washington. Any
[00:07:18] Any high level political defection defection from the Democratic Party
[00:07:21] Party to the Republican one will
[00:07:23] will always create headlines. But
[00:07:25] But this coming this late in the
[00:07:27] the day and in this particular race
[00:07:29] race in Michigan really stands out.
[00:07:32] out. Could it have an effect? Well,
[00:07:35] Well, certainly already it is having
[00:07:37] having an effect in terms of funding.
[00:07:40] funding. Mr El-Sayed's campaign has
[00:07:48] has generated another $1.2 million million since, according to his campaign
[00:07:52] campaign officials, since Congresswoman Congresswoman Stevens came out in
[00:07:55] in support of Mike Rogers, it is
[00:08:00] is interesting that he received high high level support, for example,
[00:08:04] example, from the Senate Minority
[00:08:06] Minority leader Chuck Schumer, who
[00:08:08] who called the decision by Congresswoman
[00:08:11] Congresswoman Stevens a diabolical.
[00:08:14] diabolical. Betrayal. But of course, course, on the flip side, there is
[00:08:18] is Donald Trump, the Republican Party
[00:08:20] Party welcoming, welcoming her with
[00:08:22] with open arms, saying that she would would be welcome to join, calling
[00:08:25] calling her brave, calling her courageous. courageous. She herself has said,
[00:08:29] said, as she put it, there is no
[00:08:31] no place for her in Mr El-Sayed's
[00:08:35] El-Sayed's campaign. He has said said that he's simply concentrating
[00:08:38] concentrating on the race, on the the needs of the people of Michigan,
[00:08:41] Michigan, saying he prefers to concentrate
[00:08:44] concentrate not on the politics but but on the policies. Now this could
[00:08:48] could end up having the reverse effect
[00:08:50] effect than intended by Congresswoman Congresswoman Stevens in galvanising
[00:08:54] galvanising his support in galvanising
[00:08:57] galvanising money and bringing people people on board in these final few
[00:09:00] few days, these final few hours really
[00:09:03] really of a very, very tightly contested
[00:09:06] contested race. Will Grant reporting reporting from Washington, our North
[00:09:09] North America editor, Sarah Smith Smith sent this report from the key
[00:09:11] key state of Maine in the northeast.
[00:09:15] northeast. Most of the places where where the races look really tight
[00:09:17] tight are states where there is an
[00:09:20] an incumbent Republican facing a a Democratic challenger who is doing
[00:09:24] doing remarkably well in the polls. polls. Now we know that opinion polls polls have been wrong in the past,
[00:09:28] past, and there's no guarantee that that they're right this year. But But they have fairly consistently
[00:09:31] consistently been showing a major major surge in support for Democrats,
[00:09:35] Democrats, which means they could could be able to take some really
[00:09:37] really surprising seats like Iowa, Iowa, Ohio, maybe even Texas and
[00:09:41] and Kansas. Real Republican strongholds strongholds that have been that way
[00:09:45] way for decades now. I have travelled travelled across the country to a a number of these key states and
[00:09:49] and everywhere. Voters have told told me that they are very angry
[00:09:52] angry about the cost of living, and and they directly blame that on Donald
[00:09:55] Donald Trump and his decision to to go to war with Iran, but not everybody
[00:09:59] everybody in that position said they they were going to switch their votes. votes. Some are still planning to
[00:10:02] to vote for Donald Trump's Republicans.
[00:10:05] Republicans. It does seem likely likely Democrats will take a majority
[00:10:08] majority in the House of Representatives, Representatives, and if they do that,
[00:10:11] that, that will allow them to try try and block legislation that Donald
[00:10:14] Donald Trump has is an open some some investigations. It will be harder
[00:10:18] harder for them to win a majority
[00:10:20] majority in the Senate. But whatever whatever happens, it will have a
[00:10:23] a very big impact on Donald Trump's Trump's last two years in office.
[00:10:27] office. Sarah Smith so why are the the US midterm elections so important?
[00:10:30] important? Well, all of the seats seats in the House of Representatives Representatives on Capitol Hill in
[00:10:34] in Washington are up for grabs, along along with a little over a third
[00:10:37] third of the Senate. Both of those those chambers in Congress passed
[00:10:40] passed laws applicable across the the nation, and they can act as a
[00:10:43] a check on presidential power. So So the Democrats taking one or both
[00:10:47] both chambers would spell trouble trouble for Donald Trump and his
[00:10:50] his final two years in office. Clive
[00:10:52] Clive Myrie is in North Carolina, Carolina, and he's been talking to
[00:10:55] to some of Mr Trump's staunchest staunchest supporters and asking
[00:10:58] asking if they'll stick with him
[00:10:59] him or vote for the Democrats. It's
[00:11:05] It's morning in a divided America.
[00:11:08] America. What we need is not a political political revolution in America.
[00:11:11] America. What we need is a spiritual
[00:11:13] spiritual revival fought for at the the Lake. Church in North Carolina.
[00:11:17] Carolina. Local politician and pastor pastor Cameron McGill. Jennie are
[00:11:20] are becoming victims of their own own vice. Once his largely evangelical
[00:11:24] evangelical Republican flock to wake
[00:11:26] wake up. God's law is the foundation
[00:11:30] foundation of our laws. Our morality morality jurisdiction of right. He's
[00:11:33] He's worried they'll stay at home
[00:11:36] home during the crucial midterm elections.
[00:11:38] elections. We need to understand understand God's jurisdiction when when it comes to the matters that
[00:11:42] that have divided us as a nation.
[00:11:45] nation. Evangelical Christians have
[00:11:47] have solidly backed Donald Trump Trump and the Republicans. They looked
[00:11:51] looked away. But the man in the White White House. David, didn't turn back.
[00:11:53] back. Is testing their patience. patience. He was confident of that
[00:11:56] that victory. They say midterm elections elections are a referendum on the
[00:12:00] the guy in the White House. I'm not not saying it's the best there is.
[00:12:03] is. I mean, he has some childish
[00:12:06] childish habits that I don't really
[00:12:07] really care for. But in the end,
[00:12:11] end, versus the other choice, he he was the person. He was the man
[00:12:14] man for sure. You're a Vietnam vet?
[00:12:16] vet? Yes, sir. Yeah. And how important important are the coming elections
[00:12:19] elections for you? Do you think. think. They're important? I don't
[00:12:23] don't think it's a referendum on
[00:12:25] on him as much as it is on the general
[00:12:31] general direction of the nation. nation. Do you support him? I do
[00:12:33] do support him. I mean, you have
[00:12:36] have to ask yourself the question question am I better off than I was
[00:12:40] was two years ago or four years ago?
[00:12:43] ago? What do you think? I mean, yeah,
[00:12:46] yeah, I am so are you. Is the country
[00:12:49] country as a whole? I mean, that's
[00:12:51] that's I feel like it is, yeah. We We tell you thank you for all your

[00:13:53] end up in a line like this? No. We're
[00:13:58] We're in the midterm elections. How
[00:14:00] How did you vote? I voted Democrat Democrat this year. In early voting,
[00:14:04] voting, you voted Democrat. And how how did you vote last time. I voted
[00:14:07] voted Republican last time. So you
[00:14:10] you switched. Why have you switched?
[00:14:13] switched? Cost of living for one,
[00:14:16] one, gas prices, grocery prices everything's
[00:14:21] everything's going up. He's going going to make America great again.
[00:14:24] again. You know, that was his main
[00:14:28] main slogan. Has he done that? Everything Everything was going to come back

[00:14:54] I'm a Republican. You're a Republican. Republican. I am a Republican and
[00:14:57] and I am not happy. I was a Trump
[00:14:59] Trump supporter and I am so wish

[00:15:06] so in the midterm elections, how how have you voted? I haven't I'm
[00:15:10] I'm not even I'm not even I'm. Going
[00:15:13] Going to stay home. I'm staying home home out of that thing, out of it.
[00:15:16] it. What's that number four. All All right. What are the worst examples
[00:15:20] examples of poverty that you've come come across in this region? I've
[00:15:23] I've had elderly people eating cat cat food or dog food. Whoa whoa.
[00:15:26] whoa. Whoa whoa whoa. Back up, back
[00:15:27] back up, back up. You're saying there
[00:15:30] there are people coming here who
[00:15:32] who are so poor, they're eating their
[00:15:35] their cat food. People are that destitute. destitute. Well. We've gone through
[00:15:38] through some really hard times, especially especially since Covid. You've got
[00:15:40] got people who've lost family members.
[00:15:42] members. Yeah, maybe the major breadwinner.
[00:15:46] breadwinner. The jobs are not where, where, you know, they're not paying
[00:15:49] paying what they people would desire desire them to pay. And sometimes
[00:15:53] sometimes it's a little tough. Politics
[00:15:57] Politics should be about people.
[00:15:59] people. No matter their church. A
[00:16:02] A nation divided will not stand.
[00:16:06] stand. Back at the Lake Church, George
[00:16:09] George Barber takes Pastor Cameron's
[00:16:11] Cameron's words to heart. He runs
[00:16:16] runs a vineyard in this corner of
[00:16:18] of America. So the grapes are harvested. harvested. They go somewhere else.
[00:16:22] else. He's voting Republican, but but he's fed up. Like so many we
[00:16:24] we spoke to. And here they are of
[00:16:27] of the divisiveness of American politics.
[00:16:29] politics. I think if both sides would
[00:16:31] would quit being so extreme one way
[00:16:33] way or the other and work together
[00:16:36] together for the betterment of this,
[00:16:38] this, this nation, our people, and
[00:16:40] and if we get better, the world might
[00:16:43] might get better. But are the midterm
[00:16:46] midterm elections capable of bringing bringing people together, or will
[00:16:49] will they simply push Americans further
[00:16:53] further apart? Clive Myrie In North North Carolina, you can watch a special

[00:18:47] plans on indefinite leave to remain. remain. She's proposed extending
[00:18:50] extending the wait for permanent permanent settlement for people who
[00:18:52] who move to the UK from five years
[00:18:55] years to ten. Henry Zeffman is our our chief political correspondent.
[00:18:58] correspondent. He says this is an an important day for the Home Secretary
[00:19:01] Secretary and the Prime Minister. Minister. Whatever Shabana Mahmood
[00:19:04] Mahmood says later, this is a very very big moment for her because she
[00:19:08] she first announced these proposals proposals almost a year ago now and
[00:19:11] and has been battling to get them them through the Labour Party and and through her own colleagues. But
[00:19:15] But also a big moment for Andy Burnham, Burnham, the still relatively new
[00:19:19] new Prime Minister, because he is
[00:19:21] is showing his hand on some of these
[00:19:23] these very thorny, very heated questions
[00:19:26] questions about how immigrants, legal legal immigrants should be treated
[00:19:29] treated once they've come to the the UK and the way in which they
[00:19:32] they should or should not in some some cases be integrated into British
[00:19:36] British society with permanent residents residents because that's what indefinite indefinite leave to remain is. It
[00:19:39] It is permanent residency giving giving people who have acquired that
[00:19:43] that status the ability to live, live, work, remain in the UK, doing
[00:19:46] doing whatever they want for however
[00:19:48] however long they want. And Shabana Shabana Mahmood, in her original
[00:19:52] original proposals, said that we're we're currently most migrants can
[00:19:55] can apply for indefinite leave to to remain after being here for five
[00:19:58] five years. That would for many of of them double to ten years. But
[00:20:01] But for some lower paid migrants,
[00:20:04] migrants, treble to 15 years and and many social care workers would
[00:20:07] would have been affected by that
[00:20:10] that 15 year wait, it seems likely likely that the social care worker
[00:20:14] worker element of this is going to to change. In particular. So some
[00:20:17] some social care workers perhaps perhaps won't have to wait anywhere
[00:20:20] anywhere near as long as that for
[00:20:23] for applying for indefinite leave leave to remain. That will deal with
[00:20:26] with criticism that Shabana Mahmood Mahmood has faced from some Labour
[00:20:29] Labour MPs. But other Labour MPs, MPs, including Angela Rayner, who
[00:20:31] who now sits around the cabinet table
[00:20:33] table with her, said that simply simply changing the waiting time
[00:20:37] time for anyone who was already here here was, in her words, un-British.
[00:20:40] un-British. It will be fascinating fascinating to see what Shabana Mahmood
[00:20:42] Mahmood says later today. Henry Zeffman
