"if we save the sea, we save our world" - prince william speaks ahead of the un ocean conference, calling for urgent action to protect oceans and their ecosystems. watching human activity reduce beautiful sea forests to barren deserts at the base of our oceans is simply heartbreaking. president trump orders two thousand national guards to los angeles after a 2nd day of clashes between protesters and border immigration officers. ahead of a spending review announcement,

the uk government announces that schools in england are to receive an additional four and a half billion pounds. nigel farage insists reform uk isn't in disarray, following the return of zia yusuf to the party after he resigned as chairman on thursday. hello, i'm catherine byaruhanga. the prince of wales has said that "an urgent wake up call" is needed for what's going on with the planet's oceans. speaking ahead of a un conference on ocean protection which is due to start in the southern french city of nice on monday - prince william said it could no longer be a matter of "out of sight, out of mind". take a listen. if we are to reach our goal, we urgently need to take bold action to protect and restore our planet. we must realise

the potential of the blue economy for our ecosystems, our economies and our communities. with creativity, ingenuity, investment and support, we can unlock exciting innovations and solutions that protect our planet, create jobs, sustain livelihoods, and encourage prosperity. this challenge is like none that we have faced before. but i remain an optimist. i believe that urgency and optimism have the power to bring about the action needed to change the course of history. i am an optimist because as the founder of the earthshot prize, i see the incredible examples of the ideas, innovations and technologies that are harnessing the power of the ocean whilst protecting its vitality. prince william's full speech is available on our website - but here are a few more of the points he made.

he said that while the world's nations have committed to protecting 30% of the land and sea by the year 2030 - so far, only 17% of the land, and just 3% of the ocean, have been fully protected. he also noted three of the big issues affecting the oceans - rising temperatures, plastic pollution, and overfishing. our reporter pierre-antoine denis was at the event at the grimaldi forum in monaco for us. he gave me this analysis of prince william's speech. yeah. so it was a very strong sense of urgency, but also optimism from the prince of wales. in this speech that was described as a landmark speech. and it's true that some of the words that we've been hearing were very, very strong in his call to action. and this idea that we're all in this together, wherever we are, whoever we are. for some, it's already

an existential threat. for others, it is important to act because we owe it to the people who are already feeling the brunt of climate change. this is a very strong call, but also a call that has been repeated over and over again by both prince william and king charles over the years. and, you know, we've been hearing about how we need to act together with urgency and optimism while we still have the chance. because, as i said, for some nations around the world, pacific islands, for instance, there's the threat of climate change and sea level rise is already just there, to the extent that some are already thinking about drawing plans to relocate themselves as climate refugees. this is just one of the many issues that prince william has touched upon. but he also looked at the optimism about the innovation that is around this, the different issues surrounding our oceans and what can be done with the right incentives, but also the right funding.

and he is of course speaking ahead of the un ocean conference starting on monday in nice in france. what can we what can we expect from the conference? what kind of commitments can we expect? so there should be by the end of this conference, hopefully by the beginning of it. according to the french officials, the ratification, the full ratification of a treaty about the high seas. so it's to create some sort of governance around the international waters and protected marine areas to be increased considerably. there is this target that has been signed a few years ago around the idea that 30% of seas and protected land close to marine life should be protected at this stage. it's only 8%, so there's still a long way to go. and prince william echoed that in that speech as well, about how this is the ambition. this is the target. but it needs to happen now. and there are real questions around this conference that kick

starts on monday with - if donald trump isn't here calling climate change a hoax, how can there be actual incentives and actual implementation and funding around these programmes if the us isn't in it? the prince's speech comes a day after he released, on his social media accounts, his own interview with the veteran broadcaster sir david attenborough, in which they spoke about the future of the planet's seas. in today's speech, prince william paid tribute to sir david's new film 'ocean', saying it made the most 'compelling argument for immediate action' he has ever seen. watching human activity reduce beautiful sea forests to barren deserts at the base of our oceans is simply heartbreaking. for many, it is an urgent wake up call to just what is going on in our oceans. but it can no longer be a matter of out of sight, out of mind. the need to act to protect our ocean is now in full view.

as ever, sir david leaves us with a sense of optimism that all is not lost. he believes change is possible. put simply, the ocean is under enormous threat. but it can revive itself. but only if together we act now. chris bowler is an oceanographer and the scientific director of tara ocean foundation. he is also in monaco, and gave me his reaction to prince william's speech. yeah, well, the damage causing, to the deep sea is very concerning. and what may potentially happen in the future is even more concerning. there's a lot of interest in deep sea mining. sea bed mining. opening that up as soon as possible. there's a lot of damage being caused by bottom trawling due to industrial fishing. oftentimes these are done in areas beyond national jurisdiction, called the high seas.

there is indeed a treaty being put in place that is currently being ratified, which we hope will protect those areas. but it's incredibly important that we give protection to these areas and perform more research to understand exactly what is happening in these high seas areas and what they do for the well-being of our entire planet. you know, just because the ocean is far away from our homes, doesn't mean that the oceans don't affect our daily lives. they are, in fact, very important for regulating the climate, regulating the weather, and assuring the health, the well-being of the entire planet. and, at the end of this conference next week in monaco, in nice, we expect a political declaration to be signed by the countries attending. it's non-binding, but how could it be helpful for scientists like yourself? well, i mean, first of all, we have this. the fact that this ocean

event is happening, organised by the un, is a very clear sign that there is a realisation of the urgency of the issue. there is important time being given to what the ocean does for the well-being of our planet. and there's also time being given to the biodiversity within the oceans and what biodiversity helps the oceans to perform. most of that biodiversity is microscopic, it's the plankton, and it's those plankton that assure the health of the whole system. so there's a good, urgent realisation about this. and in many cases, there really is scientific clarity on how things work and what we need to do to find solutions. now, what we need is political courage to stand up and really ensure that these actions are taken forward very urgently, very quickly, notably in the high seas, which are beyond, you know, the national jurisdictions. we need, you know, international programmes to help address this

urgent problem. the governor of california has heavily criticised president trump's decision to deploy national guard troops to los angeles - after a second night of protests against deportations. gavin newsom said the city has no shortage of law enforcement officers. mr trump praised the national guard for doing "a great job". but so far, none of them have arrived in la. joe inwood has the latest. angry protests met with a forceful response. for a second night in a row, predominantly latino areas of la saw running battles between locals angry at immigration raids. the federal officials carrying them out, and local police. tear gas was fired, as were fireworks in violence that lasted late into the night. they went straight from my girlfriend. they ripped her out of my arms. they took her.

they threw me her phone. and i was like, where are you guys taking her? she's born here. it all began back on friday as news spread of agents from immigration and customs enforcement known as ice, detaining local people. they were random sweeps and they were picking up our community in random sweeps. they were racially profiling our community. there were reports of people hiding inside their houses for fear of being detained. one group of protesters tried to stop a bus carrying those taken by ice. california's governor, gavin newsom, called the raids cruel and urged people to avoid violence. at the same time, president trump, who won power promising a crackdown on illegal migration, was amongst his supporters at a mixed martial arts event. immigration is seen as one of his strongest issues, with many americans backing his tough approach.

he called the la mayor and governor incompetent and said he had deployed the national guard to los angeles. the last time they were sent to the city was all the way back in 1992, following an outbreak of violence caused by police brutality against rodney king. these protests have not reached those levels, but there are fears the arrival of the national guard could inflame an already tense situation. joe inwood, bbc news. let's hear more now from someone who was in los angeles as the unrest broke out. here's a witness to events, speaking to a reporter from our us partner cbs news. we were at a stoplight on the other side of paramount, over there on alondra, when out of nowhere in the stop, immigration agents, ice,

all that came. you know, they came dressed up in all their military gear and they stopped traffic. when they stopped traffic, we started noticing. and i told my girl, that's immigration right there. what they started doing was, they went in front of a business and they go and they started bringing people out in vans. once they started doing that, that's when everybody knew, you know, what was going on and everybody was there. you're stuck in your car, in your vehicle. when they saw us looking at them, doing all that, that's when they started throwing tear gas. everybody was still in their vehicles. as soon as one of the tear... you said there was, who was behind you? behind us, there was a woman and her young daughter. she was around 13. i kept in touch with them. and as we speak, she's in the hospital because the tear gas bomb hit her right in the face. they were right behind us, taking notice that we're not there to protest. we were stuck at the light. but we're witnessing everything happening right in front of our eyes.

the tear gas explodes. they come out crying out of their vehicle, and they can't breathe. they're literally on the ground. i have the video. i have the footage. and so what are you and your girlfriend do at that point? we get off and we see everybody else getting off to record - peacefully. we do not throw anything at them. we're not yelling at them. we're just recording what's going on because people deserve to know the truth. this is why you guys are here. this is because, you know, these things need to be documented. this is what they wanted. they wanted people to riot. they wanted the people to start fireworks. they wanted the people to start burning out. why? because this is the effect. so they can make us look bad. so they can make us seem that we're the ones causing this, that we started it. let's turn to some breaking news. health workers in gaza says israeli gunfire killed 4 people near a us and israeli-backed aid distribution centre on sunday. let's speak to our middle east analyst, sebastian usher who is in

jerusalem. sebastien, tell us what more do we know about this latest incident that happened on sunday? what we've been hearing our reports from rescue workers and from some of those that have been treated in hospitals, it appears to have happened early in the morning near an aid distribution site in the south of gaza before it had opened. people had been told not to go to that site until later in the day. as you say, people are reported to have been killed, others are wounded, one eyewitness said that her husband had been shot in the head as he was there to try and get food for their children. it's really army has responded by saying that they called out to suspects to distance themselves from the area but as the continued advancing in a way that endangered the troops, the soldiers responded with warning shots. they say they are aware of reports of people injured by an initial inquiry suggests

that the number of reported individuals injured doesn't align with the information currently held by the idf. that's the statement we've heard from the idf in these incidents that have been going on now for pretty much a week. each time that the gaza aid humanitarian foundation opens its sites on the edge of the area where the aid is being handed out, these incidences have been happening on a regular basis. and we're also hearing israel's defence minister saying that he has extracted the idf to act to prevent the model line for a teller from reaching gaza. this is the flotilla that is trying to get aid into gaza. this is something that they have posted on x just a short time ago, it

is a short statement, he says that he is calling on the navy to take whatever measures are necessary to achieve the end of stopping this flotilla which has activists on there, including greater than bug. they are passing the coast of egypt. thank you. that is our middle east analyst. schools in england are to receive an extra four and a half billion pounds a year by the end of this parliament - as part of the government's spending review to be announced this week. the chancellor rachel reeves says children have been at the forefront of her mind as she prepares to outline her spending plans on wednesday. with competing calls for funding, the conservatives said the home office budget - and police officers

in particular - should be protected. here's our political correspondent, damian grammaticas. when your prime minister, deciding who gets what is one of the most difficult tasks. funding more fiscal news, more provision for people with special educational needs and to pay for pay rises already notes for teachers. the technology secretary is already one of the winners committed £2 billion a year invested in research and development. he says the government recognises every part of society is struggling. so the response, spending overall going up, the red line the track labour is setting out, the blue is the comparison of what conservatives had planned. we understand, we get it. right across our society, our economy and our public services, we get the stresses that people are

under. we are going to increase per-pupil funding in schools to the highest it's ever been and we're going to have the largest ever increase in our indy as a government in our history. not every piracy may be treated the same. cutting some types of crime, protecting women and girls and boosting neighbourhood policing are also government pledges. police chiefs have warned they need cash. the technology secretary said they only had more money at must embrace change. the conservative say policing budget should be protected. they would find the money by cutting elsewhere. the increasing spending by a huge amounts of money, partly funded by an enormous cut tax increase partly by more borrowing. where are we to do things differently, we would go further on welfare reform, the welfare secretary last years set out plans to save £12 billion from the welfare budget. reform uk have said they want to see huge tax cuts, they claimed they would make

the sums add up the following donald trump's example, to search out waste. they're so much waste, surely we can all agree, stop wasting money in the back office and spend it in the front office where actually you deliver proper, efficient front line services. in almost a year in office, the council has made a feature of taking tasks -- tough, sometimes unpopular decisions. and reform uk's deputy leader richard tice says his party knows "exactly" what it's doing, after zia yusuf resigned as chairman - only to return 48 hours later to take on a different role. mr yusuf said his decision to step down had been due to exhaustion and he was now redoubling his commitment to the party. now it's time for a look at today's sport with chethan pathak.

we are fast approaching the men's french open final at roland garos - the long awaited first grand slam final between the two players heralded to dominate the game for years to come. they've won the last five majors between them. sinner is the world number one looking to win the title for the first time, whilst alcaraz is the defending champion in paris. it's really long, playing in such a great level and such a high intensity during three sets is tough and i know that i bring a lot of intensity into the matches. i put some high-speed on my shots during, some of the other players aren't used to playing such a high speed or intensity. that makes me confident in the grand slam, i'm thinking they're going to come back if i lose one or two sets.

cristiano ronaldo insists the nations league final is "one team against another", and not a straight battle between the five time ballon d'or winner, and the teenager tipped to follow in his footsteps, lamine yamal is more than 22 years ronaldo's junior, but could add the trophy to the three he's already won this season, as his spain side take on portugal in munich. and ronaldo's boss, roberto martinez, is adamant that while they won't just try and stop yamal, the 17-year-old has impressed him. it's surprising that such a young player has the ability to be so consistent, i think there are positions on the pitch where it's easier to be consistent. i believe that being a winger is the most difficult position to maintain good consistency. often it comes with experience, with knowing what to expect. we are talking about a situation that

is unique in football. he's a star player, a player that makes a difference. having consistency as a winger, the level of demand from his club and national team, that means we are talking about a unique player. tyrese haliburton insists the indiana pacers aren't getting ahead of themselves after taking a dramatic lead in the nba finals series. they went one up after winning at oklahoma city thunder as they look for the first champoinship in franchise history, with haliburton providing the clinching score on thursday night, not for the first time in this season's playoff run. and he says doing the same on sunday - again, in oklahoma - won't be easy. winning on the road is hard, winning a nba game in general is hard. it's not easy. i think, you try and be as present as you can, that's the biggest thing we've talked about as a group. this journey is going to be, 18 or 19 days

until game, that's how we've approached every play-off series that we've been in as a group. take it a day at a time. ally wollaston has become the first new zealander to win the women's tour of briton which ended in glasgow. carr ferguson started the final stage with a3. she's had a picture with more than 70 miles to go. she finished seventh on day as a dutch rider won the stage, finishing third was enough for wallace and to put focus into the overall victory and the first tour win of her career. mum and dad would probably be a bit shocked at home. i called them last night, they said, cats will probably be thinking the same thing. come on, guys. i think you'll be super proud back home. more french open final build-up on the bbc sport website as well as preview to the cricket. i'll have more for you later.

and that's all the sport for now. bruce springsteen fans who went to his concert in liverpool last night already knew they'd be seeing a music legend. but they ended up getting two for the price of one. i believe it's going to be going places so let's bring out sir paul mccartney. the beatle joined the boss on stage at anfield stadium, where they sang can't buy me love. rumours of the duet had been rife after springsteen met sir paul at the school he founded, the liverpool insitute of performing arts. stay with us here on bbc news. we'll bring you the latest from los angeles throughout the day. authorities there say that they

expect the national guards who have been deployed by a president trump to arrive in the next 24 hours.

this is bbc news, the headlines. "if we save the sea, we save our world." prince william speaks ahead of the un ocean conference, calling for urgent action to protect oceans and their ecosystems. president trump orders 2,000 national guards into los angeles after a second day of clashes between protesters and border immigration officers. california's governor gavin newsom has called the move inflammatory, saying it would further escalate tensions. reports from inside gaza suggest more palestinians have been shot dead near food distribution sites run by a controversial aid group. at least four people were reportedly killed as they headed towards sites run by the - and israeli-backed gaza humanitarian foundation.
