This is the Global News Podcast from the BBC World Service. I'm Alex Ritson and at 16 hours GMT on Tuesday the 2nd of June, these are our main stories. The UN Secretary General says the predicted super El Nino weather system will pour fuel on a warming globe. Israeli strikes in the south of Lebanon have continued despite a US-brokered partial ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah.
Chapter 2: What urgent climate warning does the UN issue regarding El Niño?
Kaksi ihmistä on syntynyt Kenian puolustuksessa protesteissa vastaan suunnitelmien järjestämisestä EU-pohjaisen ebola-isolointipalvelun. Myös tämän podcastin jälkeen. Minä olen varma sinulle, että me tunnemme, että me olemme pysyneet. Meidän pitäisi jatketa, mutta luulen, että maailma pitäisi aloittaa ja pysyä lukioon ja pysyä lukioon.
Ukraine remains defiant after one of the deadliest Russian attacks of recent months. And our arts correspondent speaks to actors Tom Hanks and Tim Allen ahead of their fifth outing as Woody and Buzz.
A new phase of the natural El Niño weather pattern could begin in the next few months, the UN has warned, boosting temperatures on the planet already under strain from climate change. The World Meteorological Organization says this El Niño is likely to strengthen over the rest of 2026, driving more extreme weather events around much of the globe.
Several forecasts from national weather agencies suggest it could end up as one of the strongest ever recorded, a possible so-called super El Niño. Here's the Secretary General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres.
Kiitän Maailman materiaalinen organisaatio tästä tärkeästä uudesta uudistuksesta. Ilmaisuus on selkeä. El Niño tulee tulevaisuudessamme 90 prosenttia varmaankin. Maailma pitäisi käsitellä sitä, että se on tärkeä ilmaisuusvarmuus. El Niño-mahdollisuudet laittavat vettä lämpimällä maailmassa. Yhdistelmät liittyvät edelleen hankalaisemmin, liittyvät edelleen lisäämättömämmin ja yhdistelväävät ristiriitaa todella nopeasti.
I heard more about El Niño from our climate editor, Justin Rowlett. It's a change in the pattern of winds in the central, the tropical Pacific Ocean. So the trade winds that normally blow east to west either stop or reverse direction. And that means that affects the currents of water under the ocean. So the ocean collects heat from the atmosphere, and instead of that heat traveling towards the west,
se alkaa mennä eteenpäin. Meillä on satelliitteja, joilla on moottorit, joilla on moottorit, joilla on moottorit, joilla on moottorit, joilla on moottorit, joilla on moottorit, joilla on moottorit, joilla on moottorit, joilla on moottorit, joilla on
Joten ympäri, tämä vesi ympäri vettä on noin 6°C parempi kuin olisi toivottavasti tämän vuoden aikana. Se on todella tärkeä kasvatuksena. Kun se pääsee ympäri, Suomesta ja viimeistään keskustaan, me odotamme ympäriä 2°C tai enemmän kuin olisi toivottavasti. Se on todella suuri kasvatuksena.
ja se lämpö on tietenkin radioitunut atmosfeeriin, ja siinä on sellaista, missä saadaan sellaista rippua vaikutuksista maailman kohdalla. Maailma on oikeastaan kaikki puolestaan. Luotettava lämpö maailmasta atmosfeeriin ja sitten ympäri maailmaa, ja mitä lisää lämpöä on,

Chapter 3: How is El Niño expected to impact global weather patterns?
It changes weather patterns. So, for example, we can expect to see things like droughts and wildfires in places like the Amazon, Australia, and then into Southeast Asia, even into India. So it can affect the Indian monsoon with huge consequences there and indeed around the world.
Justin Rowlett. Listening to that was our global affairs reporter, Anbarasan Etirajan. So what impact could this have in South Asia and further afield? As Justin was mentioning, the monsoon is going to have an impact because the Indian weather forecasters are saying India is likely to receive...
The lowest monsoon rainfall in 11 years. Now why this is important? Because nearly 70% of water resources in India, they get their water mainly from this monsoon rain. And given that more than 50% of India's farmlands don't have proper irrigation facility, they depend on rainwater. So if there is any deficiency in rain, that is going to have an impact on food production.
In the previous years, for example, India, when they faced this illinear condition, food production went down, the prices shot up. As a result, they stopped grain exports, for example, non-Basmati rice. So India is the largest exporter of rice in the world. So if India stops exporting, then the global prices go up. And also India is one of the biggest producers of sugar. So it can have an impact, but then again it can also increase inflation within India as well.
And this has real consequences for real people, including a lot of very poor people. First of all, the heat itself is causing a lot of damage. What we are seeing is 45, 46, even up to 47 degrees. A lot of farm laborers and day-to-day workers, migrant workers working in the heat.
You usually see thousands of deaths because of the heat stroke and other things, but people are feeling the heat more. But I also have to mention about this heavy rains, month-long rain coming in within three days, for example, what we saw in Sri Lanka last year that was attributed to the changing weather pattern.
And in countries like in Indonesia, wildfires, that is the main concern, because the last time in 2023 in El Niño effect, they had 1.16 million hectares of forest cover. It was burned down because of wildfires. That is a big concern for Indonesia and also in Australia. So the drought, the extended, the prolonged drought can cause a huge impact on the environment in Southeast Asia as well.
Lina Sinjab on Beirutissa.
These talks really saved Beirut an attack, saved Dahye an attack, which is the southern part of Beirut, southern suburb, a Hezbollah stronghold that has been targeted in 2024 and continues to be targeted. It's been really a very tense day yesterday with thousands of people fleeing for their safety from Dahye neighborhood who are still stranded. The morning started with an imminent strike expected on Dahye, but it didn't happen.

Chapter 4: What are the potential effects of El Niño on South Asia's monsoon season?
At least 21 are known to have died, including two children. Dozens were injured. Russia said the strikes had been a response to previous Ukrainian attacks and all their objectives had been achieved. The Ukrainian MP Alexei Goncharenko said the world is distracted by other conflicts and his country was suffering as a result.
Yhdysvallat on nyt todennäköisesti täysin tarkasteltu, mitä Middle Eastin tapahtuu. Ja todellisuudessa presidentin Trumpin aloittamiset viime vuonna eivät ole edelleen tulossa. Olen varma, että uskomme, että olemme pysyneet loppuun.
Me jatketaan kestämään, se on olemassa, mutta luulen, että maailma pitäisi aloittaa ja pysyä lupauksiin, pysyä taitoihin ja pysyä seuraavaan yhdistelmään, joka tapahtuu nyt. Maailma on tarkoitus tehdä tätä, mutta toivottavasti se näyttää, että se ei ole valta tehdä tätä, ainakin nyt.
The Kremlin says the war in Ukraine has entered a different paradigm because of what it called inhumane acts of terror carried out by Ukraine. I got this assessment from our diplomatic correspondent Paul Adams. I mean there seems to be a reference to the Ukrainian attack on eastern Ukraine on a Russian border.
...facility in Starobilsk back towards the end of May. The Russians said that 21 students were killed in a dormitory. The Ukrainians said it was being used as a headquarters for a drone unit. There's no independent verification either way, but it does seem to have triggered a very strong Russian response. I think the background to this is increasing Russian frustration at the glacial pace of the war...
and the Kremlin's inability to make significant gains in recent months. And more and more commentators are talking in terms of the war taking a turn now in Ukraine's favor. They see Russia's combat performance waning, Ukraine managing its manpower issues more effectively.
A favourable casualty rate, favourable to Ukraine that is, better tactics being deployed by the Ukrainians. Obviously Russia still has an overwhelming advantage in manpower and has shown itself able to adapt. So I don't think anyone's predicting the immediate end of the war. But I think the massive use of drone and missile strikes show that that tactic...
It really is proof that Moscow still believes that it can break Ukraine's will through the use of air power at a time when Ukraine's air defenses are severely depleted. Yeah, but for all of that, we heard from the Ukrainian MP Alexei Goncharenko saying the country feels abandoned. Is that true? What's the West doing to help?
Well, you know, before the war with Iran, there were active negotiations going on to try and get a ceasefire in Ukraine. Those negotiations came to an abrupt end. Donald Trump is clearly distracted. Europe talks up its role as a supporter of Ukraine, but it doesn't represent a viable alternative as an interlocutor with Russia to try and get a ceasefire. And the Russians are certainly absolutely not interested in Europe making

Chapter 5: What recent events are unfolding in Lebanon amidst ongoing tensions?
The sanctions are designed to sting anyone who deals with them, so many ports won't accept them, insurance is hard to come by, GMS can't buy them, and mainstream recycling facilities can't receive them. I've been told by the International Shipping Association, BIMCO, that in fact some are being recycled, but it's very much under the radar and in breach of the Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships, which is a fairly recent convention.
Tässä on Gudrun Janssons, Bimco-lehtori. Sanktion kipuja, ongelma on se, ettei kukaan voi todella koskea niitä. Joten kun sanktion kipuja tai sanktion yritykset sisältyvät sopimukseen, on todellinen riski, että sanktion järjestäjätkin saavat heidät.
So what that means in practice is that more ships risk being abandoned or ending up in unsafe, substandard ship recycling facilities. She told me it's up from 85 in 2020 to over 400 abandoned vessels last year. And yet there are many hundreds of such ships still at sea. Let's look back to the Exxon Valdez disaster in 1989. She ran aground on a reef off the coast of Alaska and spilled 37,000 tons of oil.
It killed hundreds of thousands of seabirds and thousands of other sea creatures. Exxon Valdez was quite young and went on to operate until 2012, but some of these ships are well beyond their design life. Their hulls are fragile, and as a direct result of sanctions, their engines are often poorly maintained. Should one of these run aground, particularly a very large crude carrier or supertanker, we could be looking at an environmental catastrophe. Our business reporter, David Waddell.

This is the Global News Podcast. At least two people have been killed in Kenya amid protests against a new US-backed Ebola quarantine center near the town of Nanyuki. Hundreds of demonstrators marched through the streets on Monday, blocking roads and burning tires. Police fired tear gas to disperse them. The Kenyan government has defended the construction of the center by citing a health treaty with the US. The BBC's Thomas Mukwana sent this report from the scene.

Chapter 6: How are the latest Russian attacks affecting Ukraine's situation?
how it is spread, the symptoms to look for, and why early care dramatically improves survival. We have discharged six of our health workers who contracted in the early stages. The message should never be do as we say, but rather let us work together to protect your family and your community. It's starting to get through. Community engagement is not an add-on.
It's one of the most powerful tools we have to stop transmission, especially when you are dealing with the body bunja, which you don't have any validated therapeutics or any vaccine. So it's very important to educate. I'll give you a very living example. When my photos went out there in the social media, a very close family member wrote me, why don't you wear a mask? You are there. This is not an airborne disease. This is a direct contact.
patient, not direct contact to people who are healthy. Direct contact with someone who is Ebola positive. Now what brings even more challenges now is when borders are closed. When you close the borders, which the borders themselves, they are porous, people will just use illegal entry routes, which it will be very difficult to get the contact.
Muhammad Yaqub Janabi from the World Health Organization. A British man, John McFaul, lost a leg at the age of 19. It has not held him back. He won a bronze in sprinting at the 2008 Beijing Paralympics. He's worked as an orthopaedic surgeon and he can fly a plane. Now an agreement has been signed by the UK government with the US commercial space industry known as VAST.
that could see him go to space. He told Justin Webb more about it.
Tämä sopimus saa minua yksi kohta lähelle, jotta voin tunnistaa maailman ensimmäisenä, joka on tyypillinen astronautti maassa, joka on onnistunut elämään ja työskentelemään tyypillisen astronautin kanssa. Todellisuus on se, että emme tiedä, mitä se on niin, jos joku on onnistunut elämään. Olen yliopistopiiri. Mitä se on niin, jos joku on onnistunut elämään ja työskentelemään maassa? Onko onnistunut elämään vaikea? Onko käsittämällä prosessia hyödyllistä?
What happens to the physiology of someone with a limb missing in space? Because I have slightly less lower body volume to start with, i.e. missing a leg, will there be less fluid shift up towards my trunk and my head? We know that fluid shift in living and working in microgravity can cause problems with the eyes. So might I be less susceptible to those conditions? There is an awful lot to learn. Those are interesting questions, but the basic fact that you are medically fit to go –
has already been sorted out. You are, aren't you? Yeah. I've met all the medical requirements to fly to space and technically met the operational requirements. And it's just a question of now realizing that opportunity, getting an opportunity to fly in space and demonstrate actually that it is feasible and also learn an awful lot of when doing it.
John McFall. And from a hopeful astronaut looking for his place in the history books to another who's already earned his place there. It's now more than 30 years since Buzz Lightyear appeared in the original Toy Story film, and he's about to make a return in installment number five.

Chapter 7: What challenges are being faced in Kenya regarding the Ebola quarantine center?
Kyllä, se on vaikutus, koska katsokaa, täällä on minun paikani. Ja aamuun yksin, tekemässä sopimuksia. Emme sopimassa yhdessä. Emme sopimassa yhdessä. Emme sopimassa yhdessä. Emme sopimassa yhdessä. Emme sopimassa yhdessä. Tämä on se asia, että me olemme allekin teknologiassa, kun puhutaan elämäästä, ja he eivät edes ymmärtänyt, että me olemme studioissa samalla aikana sopimassa yhdessä.
Toy Story 1 on hyvin rauhassa 100 prosenttia ratkaisua Rotten Tomatoesin arvioinnin kohdalla. Toisaalta Toy Story 2 on myös rauhassa. Toisaalta Toy Story 4 on myös rauhassa 97 prosenttia. Ja näissä päivissä se suksessi tarkoittaa, että kun Toy Story kutsutaan, Tom sanoo kyllä.
I haven't really read the full through script after Toy Story 2. Because I just said, I trust you guys implicitly. What am I going to do, give notes on what I think? No, it's not going to happen. Can I play you something? This is from 1995. All of which on this fifth outing led me to think, I want to remind Tim Allen of something you once said.
This is from the junket interview from 1995. I've always loved animated films, and I've always wondered how the voices get done, and now that I know how they're done, I will never, ever do one of these again. Tom Hanks and Tim Allen talking to David Siliteo.
