00:01:11in one night. Welcome. Yemen's Houthi
00:01:17Houthi movement says that Saudi Arabia Arabia has launched renewed air strikes
00:01:21strikes across the west of the country
00:01:23country after Iran backed group announced
00:01:25announced that it targeted military military bases in the kingdom. The
00:01:28The Houthis said that the Saudi attacks
00:01:30attacks hit areas including Taiz,
00:01:33Taiz, al-Jawf and Hodeida. The group group had earlier targeted the King
00:01:36King Khalid air base in southern southern Saudi Arabia. The extent
00:01:39extent of the damage in both attacks attacks has not been verified, and
00:01:42and there has been no reaction from from Riyadh. Well, last week the
00:01:45the Houthis seized control of Yemen's
00:01:47Yemen's Red Sea coast and the strategic
00:01:50strategic Bab al Mandab Strait, including
00:01:52including Perim Island. From Jerusalem,
00:01:54Jerusalem, our Middle East correspondent correspondent Hugo Bachega reports.
00:01:57reports. The Houthis say they fired fired dozens of missiles and drones
00:02:00drones at a military base in southern
00:02:03southern Saudi Arabia, targeting targeting radar systems, runways
00:02:07runways and ammunition depots, and and there were emergency alerts issued
00:02:10issued by the Saudi authorities for for several locations around this
00:02:14this base. And in Yemen, government
00:02:16government forces supported by Saudi Saudi Arabia are trying to fight
00:02:20fight back. The Houthis have accused
00:02:22accused Saudi Arabia of carrying
00:02:24carrying out more than 300 air strikes
00:02:27strikes in the past five days. This This has been a rapid advance by
00:02:30by the Houthis, capturing a key territory
00:02:34territory along the Red Sea. And And the fear is that this could reignite
00:02:38reignite the civil war in Yemen.
00:02:40Yemen. The United Nations says that
00:02:43that more than 80,000 people have have already been displaced because
00:02:46because of the fighting, and we still still don't know if the Houthis will
00:02:50will try to seize even more territory
00:02:52territory or if there will be a larger
00:02:56larger offensive by the government government and its allies. But the
00:02:59the violence in Yemen is also putting
00:03:02putting pressure on energy supplies supplies because the Red Sea has
00:03:05has become a key alternative for
00:03:07for Saudi oil exports. Given that
00:03:09that the Strait of Hormuz has been
00:03:11been effectively closed because of
00:03:13of the US war against Iran, and it
00:03:16it isn't clear if the Houthis have
00:03:19have the ability or are planning
00:03:21planning to disrupt a shipment in
00:03:24in this vital waterway. And finally,
00:03:26finally, reports say that a crucial
00:03:29crucial Saudi pipeline that was struck struck in a drone attack a few days
00:03:32days ago is likely to remain closed
00:03:36closed for a few weeks for the damage
00:03:39damage to be repaired. And this could
00:03:41could squeeze oil prices even further.
00:03:45further. Hugo Bachega there reporting reporting from Jerusalem. Let's get
00:03:48get a little bit more detail over
00:03:50over this because Greg Holyoke is is from BBC Monitoring and you've
00:03:54you've been really drilling in on on this. So in terms of where the
00:03:57the Houthis were striking, where where exactly is it and how does
00:04:00does this relate to that pipeline? pipeline? The Saudis have closed.
00:04:03closed. So I guess it's two slightly slightly separate things in that
00:04:06that the Houthis have been striking striking southern Saudi Arabia. What
00:04:09What we've been seeing actually, actually, which has been a kind of
00:04:13of difference from yesterday, is
00:04:15is Saudi Arabian media and also official
00:04:19official Saudi forces have announced
00:04:22announced that a series of places places have been struck. They were were staying completely silent on
00:04:26on this beforehand, but they've also also announced that 13 people have
00:04:29have been injured. A number of properties properties have been destroyed in
00:04:31in areas like Taif, which is in the the south. I mean, a good few hundred
00:04:35hundred kilometres from the border, border, but still sort of within within the range of these Houthi
00:04:39Houthi low tech drones and the ballistic ballistic missiles that they're using.
00:04:43using. That being said, when it comes comes to the Saudi pipeline, what
00:04:45what we've seen is suggested that that it's coming from Iraq rather
00:04:49rather than Yemen, which might be
00:04:52be is most likely to be sort of Iran Iran backed Shiite militant groups
00:04:56groups there, which would be sort sort of broadly aligned to the Houthis.
00:04:59Houthis. The latest we've also seen seen is that Jeddah Airport, which
00:05:03which is the second biggest I believe,
00:05:05believe, in, in Saudi Arabia, has has closed down its airspace. Flights
00:05:09Flights are not landing there. And And that is also important because because Jeddah is right by Mecca.
00:05:12Mecca. It is really the kind of central
00:05:15central point that people going on on the pilgrimages, which is actually
00:05:18actually after oil, the biggest source
00:05:20source of income for Saudi Arabia Arabia are now being blocked from
00:05:24from getting in. So on that then, then, is there concern that this
00:05:27this is potentially going to spread? spread? Yes and no. I mean, so what
00:05:31what we have seen actually today
00:05:32today as well, Saudi Arabia has been
00:05:35been reporting that there has been been call or there have been calls
00:05:39calls from a number of countries countries for an emergency meeting
00:05:41meeting on the Bab al-Mandab at the
00:05:43the UN Security Council. That comes comes from a lot of European countries,
00:05:46countries, notably including the the UK, but actually the US has not
00:05:50not been calling for it. And that that is interesting because we saw
00:05:53saw over the weekend which Saudi
00:05:54Saudi media did not talk about, that
00:05:59that Donald Trump said that the Houthis Houthis had directly got in touch touch with him. You know, this is
00:06:02is quite on brand for him actually actually getting directly in contact
00:06:05contact with these groups like he he did with Hamas beforehand. And
00:06:09And they apparently asked him not not to intervene because they didn't
00:06:13didn't have kind of a problem with with the US on this, which is a complete complete reversal from what we saw,
00:06:17saw, you know, a year or so ago. ago. So what we've seen so far, there
00:06:21there haven't been many strikes or or if any, strikes on Red Sea shipping,
00:06:25shipping, including Saudi shipping
00:06:26shipping actually. But the Houthis
00:06:29Houthis seem pretty intent at the the moment on keeping this quite quite a sort of lightning operation
00:06:33operation within Yemen and with Saudi Saudi Arabia, rather than maybe going
00:06:36going beyond their capabilities and and drawing in other powers like
00:06:40like the US. And just in terms of
00:06:43of we've spoken before about people people in Yemen, they're impoverished.
00:06:47impoverished. What kind of impact
00:06:48impact is all of this having on
00:06:52them? I mean, it's twofold. So first first of all, as you mentioned, you you know, it is actually the poorest
00:06:56poorest country in the region. It
00:06:57It is surrounded by these ultra rich
00:07:00rich Petro states or Gulf states states with huge natural resources. resources. Yemen doesn't have that.
00:07:04that. And years of war does not do do anything positive for an economy.
00:07:08economy. You know, people are on on the edge of starvation, definitely.
00:07:12definitely. And the second point point is that it started to lead
00:07:15lead to quite significant migration
00:07:16migration across the Bab al-Mandab
00:07:19al-Mandab Strait to Djibouti with
00:07:21with we are seeing reports of Djibouti
00:07:24Djibouti authorities picking up dhows
00:07:26dhows of up to 500 people. So it's it's definitely having a significant
00:07:30significant effect on, on the ground ground on people in Yemen. Greg Holyoke

00:12:04help the broadcaster compete with with the global streaming giants.
00:12:07giants. That's all on The Media Show
00:12:11Show on BBC News. Welcome back. You
00:12:15You are with BBC News. The Bank of of England will be taking a close
00:12:19close look at the latest employment employment data two days before its
00:12:22its latest decision on interest rates. rates. Official figures show the
00:12:25the jobs market remained weak, with
00:12:28with vacancies at a four year low. low. The office for National Statistics
00:12:32Statistics says that the unemployment unemployment rate remained unchanged
00:12:36unchanged at 4.9%. Total wage growth, growth, including bonuses, stood
00:12:40stood at 3.9% in the three months
00:12:41months to July, down from 4.2%. But
00:12:44But the figure is likely to draw draw fresh scrutiny to the triple
00:12:47triple lock for the state pension,
00:12:49pension, meaning it's likely to rise
00:12:53rise by £488 next April to just over
00:12:56over £13,000 a year. Well, my colleague colleague Katy Austin has been crunching
00:13:00crunching the numbers for us, so so just talk us through. Let's start
00:13:03start with the pensions then just just talk us through what we're learning
00:13:06learning about this. Yeah. So the the really important context to know
00:13:09know here is how the triple lock
00:13:11lock works. So the triple lock ensures
00:13:13ensures that every April pensions
00:13:16pensions go up by one of three factors,
00:13:19factors, whichever is higher. So
00:13:20So it's either 2.5%. The September
00:13:24September rate of CPI inflation or
00:13:28or average earnings for May to July.
00:13:30July. So we got that May to July
00:13:33July figure today for this year.
00:13:35year. Now that figure was 3.9% which
00:13:38which was a little bit below the
00:13:40the previous month but still is above
00:13:43above the current rate of inflation
00:13:45inflation which is 2.9% now. And And although we won't get September's
00:13:49September's inflation figure for for another month yet unless there's
00:13:52there's a big change in that inflation inflation figure, it looks like the
00:13:56the average earnings figure could could be the decisive one in terms
00:14:00terms of how much pensions go up
00:14:02up by next April. So what we do know
00:14:06know is that people who are on a a flat rate state pension, if it
00:14:10it goes up by as much as predicted
00:14:12predicted based on, on that 3.9%
00:14:143.9% figure, well, they would actually actually that pension level would
00:14:18would actually take them above the the personal allowance, which means
00:14:20means they would have to pay some
00:14:22some tax on it. The personal allowance
00:14:26allowance is £12,570, and they'd they'd need to pay tax, in theory
00:14:28theory on the couple of hundred pounds pounds above that. So no decision
00:14:32decision has been taken yet. But
00:14:34But it looks like this wages figure
00:14:37figure out today will have a big big influence on how much pensions
00:14:41pensions rise by from April, which which is likely to reignite the whole
00:14:44whole debate over the triple lock. lock. Some economists have kind of
00:14:48of criticised it recently as unaffordable, unaffordable, but politicians at
00:14:51at the moment, sticking with that that way of calculating pension rises.
00:14:54rises. And they won't be the government government won't be pleased that
00:14:56that the job market remains weak.
00:14:58weak. Katie. Yeah, I mean, some signs signs there that things are quite
00:15:02quite soft. It's really tough job job market for people who are trying
00:15:06trying to find work at the moment. moment. I mean unemployment actually
00:15:08actually has remained pretty flat
00:15:11flat at 4.9%. But the vacancy numbers numbers are quite interesting as
00:15:14as well. I mean they've been at at
00:15:17at multi-year lows now for a few
00:15:19few months. And today we saw a further
00:15:22further slide still hovering above above 700,000 vacancies out there.
00:15:25there. But the office for National National Statistics are suggesting
00:15:28suggesting in their commentary today today that there are smaller businesses
00:15:32businesses are continuing to report
00:15:34report that the cost of hiring people, people, increased labour costs are
00:15:37are affecting their decisions when when it comes to taking on workers. workers. So that's something that
00:15:40that I'm sure will get a lot of attention attention over the coming months
00:15:43months as well. Yeah, I'm sure over over the coming months and days,
00:15:46days, two days before the interest interest rates announcement. Katie, Katie, as always, thanks so much,
00:15:50much, Katy Austin. Their powers to
00:15:52to stop people wearing certain face face coverings including balaclavas,
00:15:56balaclavas, come into force today today in Nottingham city centre.
00:15:59centre. Police will be able to ask ask people to remove coverings if
00:16:03if they reasonably believe that they're they're being used to conceal their
00:16:06their identity to commit crime or
00:16:09or anti-social behaviour. Those who
00:16:11who refuse could be issued with a
00:16:13a fine, Navtej Johal reports. Intimidating
00:16:18Intimidating and aggressive that's that's how many feel about scenes
00:16:21scenes like these where people are are wearing balaclavas. But from
00:16:24from today in Nottingham city centre, centre, the police will have the
00:16:27the power to ask anyone wearing a a face covering to remove it if they
00:16:31they reasonably believe it's being being used to conceal their identity
00:16:34identity to commit crime or anti-social
00:16:36anti-social behaviour. Over the last
00:16:38last 12 months we've experienced experienced a lot of crime and anti-social
00:16:42anti-social behaviour here in the
00:16:43the city centre whereby predominantly predominantly young people are wearing
00:16:47wearing face coverings. They're normally
00:16:50normally balaclavas. A few nights nights earlier in Nottingham we came came across a young. Man wearing
00:16:54wearing a face covering, playing playing loud music. He didn't want
00:16:57want to talk to us but the officer officer who spoke to him did and
00:17:00and he had told him about the upcoming
00:17:02upcoming ban. How receptive was he he to that message? Oh yeah. Loved
00:17:06Loved it. Loved the idea of this. this. Yeah. Hopefully he's going
00:17:09going to pay attention to it. I really really do hope everybody does pay
00:17:12pay attention to it, and I think think it'll make the streets safer. safer. Well. As part of this plan,
00:17:15plan, if someone refuses to remove remove their face covering when asked
00:17:18asked to do so by police, they could
00:17:20could be given an on the spot £70
00:17:24£70 fine or face prosecution with
00:17:26with a maximum penalty of up to £1,000.
00:17:30£1,000. With young people, we're we're clearly not going to issue
00:17:33issue a monetary fine. They will will come here back. Into the city
00:17:36city centre and they will take part part in reparative activities. So
00:17:40So that might be litter picking or or graffiti removal. And we'll also
00:17:43also do a diversionary course with with young people because we want
00:17:47want them to understand why their their behaviour is intimidatory.
00:17:50intimidatory. One, two. 341 oh one.
00:17:53one. But these teenagers at a youth youth outreach project in the city,
00:17:56city, some of whom wear balaclavas, balaclavas, say young people wearing
00:17:59wearing them are often judged unfairly.
00:18:02unfairly. If I had a nice bike and and I worry about it could be because
00:18:05because I didn't want people to know know I would come to my house to to take my bike. Could be some committing
00:18:09committing crime. Could be because because I'm cold. There's so many many different reasons that people
00:18:12people wear them. I've had some friends friends that wear ballies when they're they're being mischievous. I've got
00:18:15got friends that wear ballies because because they just want to wear it. it. Do you think this ban is going
00:18:19going to make a difference? Well.
00:18:22Well. For me, I'll be honest, if if someone wants to wear a balaclava
00:18:26balaclava or they're going to wear wear a balaclava regardless, I. Think
00:18:28Think one or two people might stop stop wearing them and that's it.
00:18:31it. Why? Just because if they're
00:18:35they're using them to commit crime, crime, then what's another crime
00:18:38crime going to do? Police say they they won't target people wearing wearing face coverings for religious
00:18:42religious work or any other legitimate legitimate reasons. They say they
00:18:45they have the resources to enforce enforce the new rules and believe

00:18:51safer. Navtej Johal BBC News, Nottingham. Nottingham. A woman who was told
00:18:55told her stage four ovarian cancer
00:18:57cancer was inoperable is now cancer
00:18:59cancer free thanks to a new pioneering pioneering treatment. Caroline Ainslie
00:19:03Ainslie was diagnosed in March. She She feared she'd run out of options.
00:19:06options. She's been speaking to Alastair
00:19:09Alastair Fee. I just thought that
00:19:12that that was it. I was a goner, goner, I was going to die and I wasn't
00:19:16wasn't going to have very much life life left. I thought I would be dead
00:19:19dead within a year. Six months ago,
00:19:22ago, Caroline was given a diagnosis diagnosis that couldn't have been
00:19:25been worse. Ovarian cancer, which
00:19:27which had been caught late and had
00:19:29had advanced to stage four, the highest
00:19:32highest classification of the disease. disease. I had cancer in my ovary
00:19:36ovary and it was also in my liver, liver, and in my lung. I had cancer
00:19:40cancer pretty much everywhere. She
00:19:42She was initially told her cancer cancer was inoperable and there was
00:19:45was little doctors could do. It just
00:19:48just felt completely hopeless. They They were just finding microscopic.
00:19:52microscopic. Residual tumour areas areas there. Caroline responded so
00:19:55so well to an initial round of chemotherapy.
00:19:58chemotherapy. Her consultant suggested suggested she undergo a pioneering
00:20:02pioneering treatment that involves involves pouring heated chemotherapy
00:20:05chemotherapy into the body after after her cancerous tumours are removed.
00:20:08removed. The process is called Hipec.
00:20:11Hipec. Hipec heated intraperitoneal intraperitoneal chemotherapy is essentially
00:20:15essentially us putting chemotherapy chemotherapy into a carrier solution solution inside the abdomen. Once
00:20:18Once we've finished doing the operation. operation. Once we've achieved complete
00:20:21complete clearance of disease. So So that is circulating for 90 minutes
00:20:25minutes to mop up any cancer cells cells that might remain that are
00:20:28are microscopic that of course we we can't see with the naked eye.
00:20:31eye. So we're healing really nicely nicely around the edges. It's granulating.
00:20:34granulating. Well. At this moment moment in time, I'm cancer free and
00:20:38and I am absolutely delighted about about that. Caroline's treatment
00:20:42treatment journey is almost over. over. She'll now be closely monitored
00:20:45monitored in the months ahead. I I can't believe you just said that.
00:20:49that. Hopefully my story inspires inspires other people to realise
00:20:52realise that actually having a cancer cancer diagnosis does not mean the
00:20:56the end of your life. It certainly certainly changes it. But there is
00:21:00is a great deal of hope in the future future because of the advancements
00:21:02advancements and treatments that
00:21:04that that we've got in this

00:21:38Airlines. I'm travelling through through Japan, going off the beaten
00:21:40beaten track to find out what makes
00:21:43makes this country unique. This is
00:21:45is ultimate Japan. This time I visit
00:21:50visit Toba in the south to witness witness the ultimate Japanese fishing
00:21:54fishing tradition. I'm on a small
00:21:56small island in an area called Toba,
00:21:58Toba, which is home to one of Japan's
00:22:01Japan's most unusual communities. communities. A group, mostly women
00:22:05women who over generations have forged forged a really tight bond with both
00:22:09both the sea and nature generally.
00:22:18generally. AMA are iconic Japanese
00:22:21Japanese free who collect seafood, seafood, seaweed and even pearls
00:22:24pearls from the sea floor. Almost
00:22:27Almost all AMA are women, and many
00:22:29many keep diving until their 70s.
00:22:3170s. 80s and even 90s diving without
00:22:36without oxygen in their traditional traditional white outfits. It's a
00:22:38a centuries old way of life that's
00:22:40that's been passed down through generations.
00:22:43generations. But today's divers under under threat from all the pressures
00:22:47pressures of modernity, are having having to adapt. Like here, displaying
00:22:50displaying their skills for tourists.
00:22:54tourists. Talbi what is this show
00:22:57show about. AMA uno...
00:23:10Which do you prefer getting real fish or do you like doing this
00:23:13this and performing to tourists.
00:23:17tourists. Or not? Hi. It's kind of
00:23:24of ironic because for a long time
00:23:27time Japan was a homogenous and quite
00:23:28quite inward looking society. But
00:23:32But it's outsiders, tourists who who are now providing a major industry
00:23:35industry here. But rest assured elsewhere elsewhere there is still some genuine
00:23:39genuine AMA diving going on a few
00:23:42few miles along the shore in Ozutsu Ozutsu I meet some divers who are
00:23:45are still making a living from this
00:23:47this traditional form of fishing.
00:23:53fishing. He Abha so they. Abha haha
00:23:59haha to. Watashi wa Umi Asa yukimasu.
00:24:09yukimasu. I don't know some Oyo State
00:24:16State mo. Yoko Ono ono. Yet these
00:24:30these ama still need to supplement supplement their income by preparing
00:24:33preparing meals for. Well, people
00:24:36people like me. How is it different
00:24:39different now diving to when you
00:24:40you first started doing it? Kodomo
00:24:49Kodomo no koro so Martin Lindsay.
00:24:52Lindsay. And why do you think that
00:24:55that is? Do you think diving will
00:25:01will carry on? I know, I know.
00:25:17Even having spent just a few hours with these charming ladies
00:25:20ladies has made me realise that the
00:25:22the traditional old ways aren't just just romantic. They actually offer
00:25:26offer a viable way of life for the the next generation. It was really
00:25:29really interesting to learn that that people are coming back here
00:25:32here to actually live and work as
00:25:34as AMA divers. Maybe it's just very
00:25:37very Japanese. The past is also
00:25:50the future. Discover the world on
