Photograph: Hussein Malla/AP Israel strikes southern Lebanon after ordering evacuations of nine villages Thousands flee including from village hosting at least 2,500 displaced people, one day after Hezbollah rejects ceasefire Thousands fled their homes after Israel issued forced evacuation orders for nine villages in southern Lebanon before strikes that killed six people on Friday, a day after the Hezbollah militant group rejected a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon. Hundreds of families left Anqoun, a village hosting at least 2,500 displaced people, after the Israeli military said it would soon operate against what it said were Hezbollah targets there, ordering residents to leave. The roads leading to Sidon, the closest large city, were choked with cars as families sought shelter. The Israeli military carried out airstrikes across wide areas of south Lebanon, including Anqoun, with drone strikes hitting cars in the Nabatieh area while airstrikes and artillery pounded the town of Kfar Tebnit. The town is adjacent to Beaufort Castle, which Israeli troops seized this week , and en route to the city of Nabatieh. Israel has issued forced evacuation orders for Nabatieh and much of the areaβs surrounding towns as it advances further towards the city, now deserted but normally one of the largest in south Lebanon. Israelβs prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu , had ordered Israeli troops to deepen their invasion of south Lebanon after capturing the medieval Beaufort crusader castle on Sunday. Hezbollah attacked Israeli troops in southern Lebanon , targeting them with rocket barrages near the castle, according to a statement by Hezbollah.

Photograph: Abbas Fakih/AFP/Getty Images The fighting came a day after a US-brokered ceasefire agreed on by the Israeli government and Lebanon was rejected by Hezbollah. The militant group called the deal, under which it would have stopped firing but with Israel allowed to continue carrying out airstrikes, tantamount to βsurrenderβ. The Lebanese prime minister, Nawaf Salam, said on Friday: βLebanon can no longer be a field for wars fought for others, nor can the south [of Lebanon] and its peoeple continue to pay the price for decisions they did not make.β Hezbollah is not a party to the negotiations between Israel and the government of Lebanon. Instead it has passed its positions and messages primarily through Lebanonβs parliament speaker, Nabih Berri. Berri, days before the failed ceasefire was drafted, said he coul

Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Turki Al-Sheikh previously owned Spanish club Almeria - a club now part owned by Cristiano Ronaldo By Andrew Aloia BBC Sport, East Midlands Published 55 minutes ago English football's independent regulator faces a "defining test" as Saudi Arabian government official Turki Al-Sheikh attempts to invest in Derby County, says Amnesty International. Al-Sheikh, who has previously owned football clubs in Spain and Egypt and is now among the most powerful figures in world boxing, is looking to buy a stake in the Championship side. As chairman of Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority - and someone who is a prominent figure in the close circle of the country's de facto ruler Mohammed bin Salman - 44-year-old Al-Sheikh has been criticised by human rights groups for his role in alleged 'sportswashing' by Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia has been accused of using sport and culture to improve its reputation and to distract from the nation's poor human rights record, treatment of women, use of the death penalty and its anti-LGBT stance. Al-Sheikh will need approval from the independent football regulator (IFR) - a body that was formed only last year to safeguard the future and integrity of the game. The IFR has establish a new owners, directors and senior executives test, taking over the responsibility previously held by English Football League when it came to new investment in Championship sides. Both bodies, as well as Derby County, have declined to comment on Al-Sheikh's interest in the Championship side when contacted by the BBC, as have Al-Sheikh's representatives. "This is a defining test for English football's new independent regulator," said Felix Jakens, head of campaigns at human rights group Amnesty International UK. "Will it allow a senior representative of a government directly implicated in mass human rights violations to take control of one of the country's oldest football clubs? The regulator must ask these questions and answer them transparently." With Premier League side Newcastle United already owned by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, Amnesty International said any stake bought by Al-Sheikh "would mark a significant expansion of Saudi Arabia's footprint in English football". Amnesty say 356 people were executed in Saudi Arabia last year - a new record which has been condemned by human rights groups. "The serious questions surrounding Saudi involvement in sport anywhere in the world are just as relevant here," said Jakens. "Al-Sheikh is not a private businessman.

Crypto billionaires help Reform cement fundraising lead 17 minutes ago Share Save Add as preferred on Google Paul Seddon Political reporter Getty Images Reform UK received Β£7m from two overseas British crypto billionaires earlier this year, figures show, helping it cement its fundraising lead in recent months. Hong Kong-based businessman Ben Delo gave Β£4m to Nigel Farage's party, according to latest filings, whilst Christopher Harborne, who lives in Thailand, donated Β£3m. The donations were made in the weeks before the government announced a Β£100,000 cap on donations after 25 March from British citizens living overseas. The planned limit has sparked a row between the two parties, with Reform accusing Labour of "choking off legal funding for its main rival". Reform leads other parties in donations ahead of May elections Farage faces standards probe into Β£5m gift from crypto billionaire The donations were contained in the latest publication of large donations by the Electoral Commission, covering the first three months of this year. The filings show Reform accepted Β£2m from Delo on 14 January, and Β£2m on 2 March, as well as Β£3m from Harborne on 23 January. None of the donations was made in cryptocurrency. The donations accounted for the lion's share of the Β£9.3m in private donations declared by Reform during the period, and around a third of the Β£20.7m total declared by all parties. The party also declared a further Β£1.1m in donations from biotech entrepreneur David Grainger. Sheffield-born Delo, who co-founded BitMEX, a cryptocurrency trading platform, is a first-time donor to the party but had revealed the donations earlier this year. Harborne, a British cryptocurrency investor, gave Β£12m in total to Reform in 2025, including a huge Β£9m donation in August , the largest ever single sum given by a living person to a British political party. Farage is under investigation by the parliamentary standards commissioner over whether he should have declared a Β£5m cash gift he received from Harborne ahead of the 2024 election upon his election as an MP. Farage argues he was under no obligation to register the "purely private" gift, as it was unrelated to his parliamentary or political activities. Election fundraising The large donations from individuals meant Reform's fundraising efforts far outstripped those of both Labour and the Conservatives, who each declared around Β£4m in donations from private sources over the period. It comes after Nigel Farage's party received more than Β£5.4m in large donations in the final three months of last year , more than any other, as parties sought to fill their coffers ahead of a crucial set of elections in May. In the latest three-month period, Labour's biggest donations were Β£550,000 each from longstanding donor Lord David Sainsbury and Gary Lubner, the former boss of Autoglass, who gave millions to Labour ahead of the last general election . The party also declared a total of Β£1.4m from seven different unions, including
By-election win-win for me, Reform candidate says 2 hours ago Share Save Add as preferred on Google Lynette Horsburgh North West Robert Kenyon was speaking to BBC Radio Manchester The Reform UK candidate for the Makerfield by-election said the poll was a "win-win situation" for him because even if he loses he would "give the Labour Party a bloody nose". The by-election was called after Labour MP Josh Simons stepped down, a move he said he had undertaken to allow his party colleague Andy Burnham to run for Parliament and potentially mount a leadership bid. Speaking to BBC Radio Manchester , Robert Kenyon said if he won, he becomes an MP, but if he lost, he had made his point as "a working class lad who has given two fingers to the establishment". The former Army reservist also dismissed comments he made in relation to TV presenter Carol Vorderman as "squaddie humour". Vorderman demanded an apology after Kenyon responded to a sexually graphic post about the TV presenter with a thumbs up and laughing emoji and a comment saying "He's only saying what we're all thinking". Kenyon admitted the comment made about Vorderman was "disgusting" but described it as a "crass joke", adding: "The person I made it to was ex-military, so it was just of what we might call squaddie banter and to make light of it." Kenyon is one of fourteen candidates contesting the by-election on 18 June. Robert Kenyon said he was a "normal working class lad" The self-employed plumber, who became a councillor in Wigan after winning in the Bryn with Ashton-in-Makerfield North ward in May's local elections, said he was not feeling the pressure of being thrust into the national spotlight in the lead up to the by-election. "It's water off a duck's back," he said. "If I lose it, I'm just a working class lad who has given two fingers to the establishment [and given] the Labour Party a bloody nose and I can hold my head up high that at least I had the guts to throw my hat in the ring." He said the "biggest issues" for people in the constituency "have been ignored" and that was what inspired him to get into politics in 2023. "I got involved because we've not been listened to. "We've been ignored for donkey's years, and I thought instead of moaning about it on the sideIines what I did is throw my hat in the ring and have a go. "Whatever happens at least I can say I have tried." PA Media There are fourteen candidates standing in the election for the Greater Manchester constituency He said he would concentrate on local matters and not wider global "geopolitics". That would include starting a campaign for a new hospital in Wigan as the current one "isn't fit for purpose" and stopping plans for a housing development on green belt land, as well as houses of multiple occupation "putting strains on resources". When asked about how he would fund the hospital, he replied saying how money "can be found when needed", citing money spent on hotels accommodating asylum seekers "costing over Β£2bn a year". O

Published 24 minutes ago The fallout from England's Ashes loss means the home summer arrives with more intrigue and questions than any other in recent memory. The series against New Zealand and Pakistan Γ’ΒΒ starting with the first Test against the Black Caps at Lord's on Thursday Γ’ΒΒ carry more significance than they might if results had gone well. In 2014, I was part of the side that returned home with our tails between our legs after losing 5-0 to Mitchell Johnson and co. It was the end of the road for that team as we knew it Γ’ΒΒ it was clear there was going to be a seismic shift. Andy Flower stood down as head coach and Kevin Pietersen never played for England again. Tim Bresnan, Chris Tremlett and Monty Panesar all never wore the whites for England beyond that point. This time there has not been a high-profile sacking, or wholesale changes of players. It's been more a shuffling of the pack and a slap on the wrist. Opener Zak Crawley is the most high-profile casualty. He definitely has the talent to play international cricket again, but I wonder whether he would benefit from dropping into the middle order to make the most of the obvious strengths in his ability. While there has been a simple switch in the batting order Γ’ΒΒ Crawley replaced by Emilio Gay Γ’ΒΒ there are as many as eight frontline bowling options in the 15-man squad, including captain Ben Stokes. It is a curiously large squad for the first Test of the summer, especially after England have had so much time to make their plans Γ’ΒΒ almost five months since the Ashes ended. As a player, I always preferred limiting the amount of deliberation inside my head in the build-up to a Test. Quite often, I'd be part of a 12-man squad and knew I was competing with one person Γ’ΒΒ usually Tremlett, Bresnan or Graham Onions Γ’ΒΒ for the final bowling spot in the XI. It meant we all knew our chances of playing in the build-up to a Test. I'm not privy to the conversations that have been had within the current set-up, but the naming of such a large squad suggests a certain amount of uncertainty. England squad for first Test against New Zealand: Ben Stokes, Rehan Ahmed, Gus Atkinson, Sonny Baker, Shoaib Bashir, Jacob Bethell, Harry Brook, Ben Duckett, Matthew Fisher, Emilio Gay, James Rew, Ollie Robinson, Joe Root, Jamie Smith, Josh Tongue. Image source, Getty Images Image caption, After his return to the England squad, Ollie Robinson was described as "one of the best bowlers in the world" by England director of cricket Rob Key England made no secrets about their Ashes gameplan: hit Australia with hostile pace and try to make them uncomfortable. What transpired down under was a more nuanced set of conditions, far more akin to what we would expect in the UK. The sight of an Australian bowling attack using a wicketkeeper stood up to the stumps for two of their seam bowlers tells you everything you need to know. The best teams I played in had bowlers who fulfilled specific roles. Right now, the England att
China cracks down on 'ghost kitchens' in food delivery apps 53 minutes ago Share Save Add as preferred on Google Koh Ewe Getty Images In one province, delivery riders have been roped in to whistleblow on "ghost kitchens" China's food delivery apps will now have to verify restaurants' licences and operating addresses, as authorities crack down on thousands of "ghost kitchens" that have raised food safety fears. "Ghost kitchens" refer to takeaway merchants on food delivery platforms with no physical shop fronts. These have come under scrutiny recently for operating often without a licence. According to new rules that took effect on Monday, shop listings on food delivery apps will need to match physical stores, and vendors have to indicate if they do not offer dine-in services. This is the latest effort by Chinese authorities to regulate the country's cut-throat food delivery industry. The scrutiny of "ghost kitchens" came about last year, after a man in Beijing lodged a complaint to local authorities over an unsatisfactory cake - topped with inedible flowers - he had ordered from a food delivery app, state media reported. Officials found that the cake chain he had ordered from listed nearly 380 locations on major e-commerce platforms but did not have a single physical store. Its online shops also used forged business licences. Further investigation revealed that cakes ordered from the stores were outsourced to an order-transfer platform, where food orders were awarded to third-party vendors with the lowest bids. Authorities found a total of 3.6 million cake orders across two order-transfer platforms, state news agency Xinhua reported. They also recorded 67,000 "ghost shops" across seven major food delivery platforms, which together with the order-transfer sites "formed an illegal supply chain through mutual collusion", Xinhua reported. Food delivery platforms were complicit in these arrangements, the report added. "If we're too strict in our review, the merchants would go to other platforms," a staff member from one delivery app reportedly told officials. China's food delivery sector is characterised by competition so fierce that it has alarmed the authorities. Last year, a price war among major delivery apps led the government to warn against such a race to the bottom. And bearing the brunt of ever-speedier takeouts are delivery riders scrambling to meet tight deadlines for a pittance. In April, the State Administration for Market Regulation said that they have fined seven e-commerce platforms - including Taobao, JD.com, Meituan and Pinduoduo - a total of 3.6 billion yuan ($530m; Β£400m), mostly over ghost deliveries. As the campaign against "ghost kitchens" continue, merchants themselves have taken steps to assure consumers of food safety. According to a Xinhua report, more than 20 takeout stalls in the eastern city of Hangzhou have installed "transparent kitchens" with live broadcasting features, allowing consumers to view food preparation in rea

Photograph: Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for TAS Rights Management Taylor Swift announces new single for Toy Story 5 soundtrack I Knew It, I Knew You is written with longtime collaborator Jack Antonoff and marks a return to Swiftβs country roots After days of speculation online, Taylor Swift has announced the release of a new original song for Toy Story 5. Titled I Knew It, I Knew You, the single will be released on 5 June, with CD singles available for preorder on Swiftβs website. Three variants will be available, each containing different versions of the song: a piano version, an acoustic version and the original. Rumors started to swirl around Swiftβs involvement in the film last week, after fans spotted billboards that spelled out the initials βTSβ in the blocky yellow Toy Story font. The posters appeared in Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, San Francisco, Toronto, Mexico City and London. βItβs a Toy Story,β Swift wrote on Instagram on 1 June, after a Toy Story-themed countdown on her website ended. βYou knew it! My new original song I Knew It, I Knew You for Disney and Pixarβs Toy Story 5 will be yours on June 5th. βThe age of toys is overβ: first Toy Story 5 teaser trailer introduces a new tech foe Read more βIβve always dreamed of getting to write for these characters who Iβve adored since I was a 5 year old kid watching the first Toy Story movie,β Swift added. βI fell instantly in love with Toy Story 5 when I was lucky enough to see it in its early stages, and I wrote this song as soon as I got home from the screening. Sometimes you just know, right?β Swift wrote the song with her longtime collaborator Jack Antonoff , per a press release . I Knew It, I Knew You will mark Swiftβs return to the country genre and was inspired by Jessie, the filmβs cowgirl character. βItβs incredible just how meaningful itβs been having Taylor write and perform this song,β said Andrew Stanton, the Toy Story 5 director. βHer connection to Jessie and the immediate way she understood what the character was going through was undeniable. βThe song is so deeply connected to Toy Story,β he said. βSo much so that on first listen, it instantly felt like it had always belonged there, like a long-lost family member. It was kismet.β The single will be Swiftβs first new music since the release of her record-breaking album The Life of a Showgirl in October 2025. In April she released a video for single Elizabeth Taylor comprised of archive footage of the legendary actor. Toy Story 5 releases worldwide on 19 June, with a trailer showing Buzz and Woody facing off with a tablet called Lilypad in a battle for playtime attention.

He faces a runoff against IvΓ‘n Cepeda. Photograph: Ernesto GuzmΓ‘n Jr/EPA Colombiaβs far-right presidential candidate Espriella wins first round of vote ahead of runoff Lawyer and Trump admirer has risen rapidly in the polls and will face IvΓ‘n Cepeda in election runoff in three weeks The far-right lawyer Abelardo de la Espriella won the first round of Colombiaβs presidential election on Sunday and will face senator IvΓ‘n Cepeda, the candidate backed by leftwing president Gustavo Petro, in the runoff. With 99.97% of ballots counted, the outsider and Donald Trump admirer Espriella secured 43.7% of the vote β just over 10.3m votes β compared with 40.9% (about 9.6m votes) for Cepeda, a philosopher and human rights activist who has served as a senator since 2014. The two will face each other in a runoff on 21 June. Although polls in recent weeks had already detected Espriellaβs rapid rise, most still showed him trailing Cepeda, who for months seemed to hold a solid lead. Espriella appears to have consolidated much of the vote that had previously been going to the rightwing senator Paloma Valencia, who at one point polled above 20% and was running in second place but finished Sunday with just 6.9%. Espriella, who calls himself el Tigre (the Tiger), celebrated the result: βCompatriots, defenders of the homeland, more than 10 million Colombians placed their trust in el Tigre and joined the pack ... In 21 days, we are going to change the history of Colombia forever,β he said in a video alongside his wife and children, all wearing shirts of the Colombian national football team. Colombiaβs climate crossroads: Trumpism casts shadow over presidential battle Read more Petro posted on X that βas president, I do not accept the preliminary resultsβ released by the National Civil Registry, the independent public body responsible for organising Colombiaβs elections. Without showing any evidence, the president claimed the count included β800,000 additional peopleβ and said he would only βconsider and acceptβ the results of the official scrutiny process, during which the National Electoral Council reviews the physical tally sheets, a procedure that can take days or even weeks. The lawyer Juan Carlos Galindo VΓ‘cha, who previously headed the National Civil Registry on two occasions, accused Petro of spreading βdisinformationβ. βHistorically, in presidential elections, the difference between the preliminary count, which is unofficial, and the official scrutiny process is less than 1%. That alone undermines any claim by President Petro that there was fraud in the count,β he said in an interview with Radio Ca
