donald trump has been fined $9,000 for contempt of court, after repeatedly attacking witnesses and jurors at his criminal trial in new york. the judge warned that he could face jail if he does it again. 0ur north america editor sarah smith explains more about the fine. yeah, donald trump has got until the end of the week to pay that fine. and it seems he's already taken down the social media posts in which he was attacking his former lawyer michael cohen, the adult film star stormy daniels, even the jury pool here in new york. he's not allowed to go after witnesses in this trial, court

staff orjurors. and when he breaches that order, that's when the judge can fine him. he left here a short while ago, though, complaining about this order, saying that it was totally unconstitutional as part of this corrupt trial and conflicted judge, he said. but the gag order, he claims, isn't fair because he's running for president and he has to be allowed to speak out. the judge has been very clear, actually, that his political comments are protected for that very reason. but what he can't do is go after witnesses, jurors or court staff. will and the judge did say that he's rather disappointed he can't fine him any more — he could only impose a fine of $1,000 for each breach of the order, nine times in this case, $9,000 — but he said that's not very much money for a wealthy defendant like donald trump. it's not much of a deterrent. so he was very clear that if necessary and appropriate, he said he would send mr trump to jail if that was the only way to stop him breaching this gag order. and in fact, the prosecution has already come up with four
11:16 pm
more examples of where they see he's breached it. there's going to be a hearing here in court about that on thursday. a failed asylum seeker has become the first to be voluntarily sent from the uk to rwanda, bbc news understands. the migrant was flown on a commercialflight and given £3,000 — or around $3,750 us — will to help relocate in kigali, as first reported by the sun newspaper. let's speak to our political correspondent, harry farley. hurry, tell us more about this first asylum—seekers that's been voluntarily sent to rwanda. the first thing we — voluntarily sent to rwanda. tue: first thing we should voluntarily sent to rwanda. tte: first thing we should say voluntarily sent to rwanda. t"t2 first thing we should say is voluntarily sent to rwanda. tt2 first thing we should say is this voluntarily sent to rwanda. t“t2 first thing we should say is this is not the government �*s flagship rwanda scheme that they've been talking so much about. that aims to forcibly deport those who come to the uk illegally on small boats. this asylum sick her voluntarily chose to go to kigali, that's under a separate scheme the government set “p a separate scheme the government set up in march. the are offering those
11:17 pm
whose asylum claims have been processed here in the uk and been rejected pay them £3000 to voluntarily go to kigali. that's what happened in this case. it's the first time that someone has been sent to rwanda under the scheme, the labour party, they say the government are so desperate to send flights off the ground to rwanda that they've paid someone to go. so i think the question is how significant is this? symbolically, it is significant. it's the first time someone has been voluntarily sent to rwanda, and it's a big week in the uk with local elections. but remember, rishi sunak, the prime minister's pledge was to stop the boats, and this case, this particular example will not offer the deterrent the government argues it needs, because this scheme that the asylum figure was sent on does not apply to those who arrive in small boats.— small boats. and 'ust to get us up to seed small boats. and 'ust to get us up to speed again — small boats. and just to get us up to speed again with how— small boats. and just to get us up to speed again with how this - small boats. and just to get us up to speed again with how this case | small boats. and just to get us up i to speed again with how this case is separate from the one you are

correspondent. to the south china sea now — the bbc has witnessed chinese vessels firing water cannon at philippines coastguard ships. it happened near the disputed scarborough shoal an area that has been a flashpoint between the two countries in recent years. the filipino authorities said its boats had been involved in a mission to deliver fuel and food to fishermen in the area. it accused beijing of once again installing a floating barrier across the entrance to the shoal. chinese state media reports its coastguard as saying it had "expelled" a philippine coastguard ship and other vessels from the area. it is extremely rare for foreign media to be granted access to philippines coastguard patrols in the south china sea — but our correspondent jonathan head was on board. shouting. this is how china defends its claim to the entire south china sea. water cannon raking the deck of a filipino coastguard ship, soaking everyone. we were just off scarborough shoal, a coral reef that is
11:20 pm
claimed by both countries. but much closer to the philippines. this coastguard ship has already attacked our ship once. its water cannon has blasted the decks, as you can see, spraying water in the air. that is a threat. it is very likely it is going to come back and hit us again. shouting. the chinese attacks continued for half an hour. this is a familiar ordeal for these filipino crew members, who must conduct these missions while greatly outnumbered by a flotilla of chinese ships alongside. all morning, we watched them shadowing us. and they watched us back. before moving in for a risky game of maritime cat and mouse.
11:21 pm
this chinese coastguard ship has come so close now, there is only perhaps a0 or 50 metres between us. this is a very aggressive tactic. the filipino crew are preparing to throw buoys over the side in case there is a collision between the two. look how close it is coming. after years of relative inaction, the philippines is now pushing back against china's dominance in these waters. it is encouraged by the firm backing it has had from the united states. the chinese presence here is overwhelming, though. in the end, our ship was forced to return to manila. and there is always the possibility that these increasingly combative encounters in this strategically sensitive region escalate into something bigger. jonathan head, bbc news, in the south china sea.

king charles has carried out his first public engagement since announcing he has cancer. he and the queen visited a cancer centre at a hospital in london. he met patients and staff at university college london and spoke of the shock of being told he had the disease. here'sjonny dymond. it's been a while, but on a sunny morning in central london, the king rolled into town. one question on everyone's minds... sir, how are you feeling? lovely to see you back. the smile seemed to say it all. there's not normally this much attention paid to a royal visit, but this was the first by the king in a long time. it's nice to see him out and about, looking so well. nice to see him back to work? of course, of course, we've all got to go to work, so obviously he will have to jump in sooner or later, but no, it was nice to see him.
11:23 pm
we were really excited to see he's well enough to be out and about on this beautiful sunny day in london, and, yeah, it's been a special treat really, and unexpected. applause inside the cancer treatment centre, appreciation for a man still undergoing treatment, and time to chat with those who had waited for him. the king giving every sign of enjoying his time out and about. the king heard about new ways to tackle cancer. he wants, the palace says, to encourage others to get tested early. the trouble is to get enough people early? yes. a man who told the world about his diagnosis hearing about the benefits of early treatment. then it was upstairs to meet those receiving chemotherapy. as the king asked after the health of patients, the questions
11:24 pm
kept coming back to him. but there was time, too, for talk, one patient to another, and for a moment of maybe mutual reassurance. as they left, posies for the king and queen, from two of the youngest patients here. this was a relatively low—key return to public duties — you might call it a soft restart — and the palace has made it clear that what comes next depends on the king's health and the advice of his medical team, but he is clearly delighted to back on the road. no word as to when the next engagement is, but the king clearly happy to be out in public again. jonny dymond, bbc

news, central london. the nominations for the prestigious antoinette perry award for excellence in broadway theatre, better known as the tony awards have been announced. these awards, which honour the best of broadway's plays, musicals, and performers, are presented at an annual ceremony in manhattan every second sunday ofjune. leading in the nominees�* table are "hell's kitchen," alicia keys�*s semi—autobiographical musical, and "stereophonic," david adjmi's play about a rock band recording a studio album, each earning 13 tony award nominations. good luck to all the nominees, in the meantime, thanks forjoining us here on newsday, bye for now. hello. well, it has been gradually warming up over the last couple of days, at least for most of us. the weather, on the other hand, a little hit and miss. and in fact, that is the outlook for the next few days. some warm sunshine, yes, but also
11:26 pm
a chance of catching some rain. now, weather fronts are close by — you can see it here on the satellite picture — and that also means some damp weather through the early hours and into wednesday morning, particularly around the irish sea coasts and also around the north sea coasts. but for most of us, it's a dry start to the day, a little misty and murky in places. here are the temperatures first thing — around 9 in london, 8 in belfast maybe, the glens of scotland around 4—5 celsius. now, many of us will wake up to some sunshine, maybe hazy skies in places. and i think it should stay generally dry through the day, although a few showers are possible inland in central parts of the uk, and also damp conditions at times are possible along the north sea coast where it'll be coolest. temperatures in newcastle, only ia degrees — deeper inland it'll be closer to 18, perhaps 20. and then wednesday night we're expecting some heavy rain to come in from the south. this could be thundery rain and downpours are likely almost anywhere across southern england,
11:27 pm
perhaps into the midlands and also southern parts of wales, and flashes of lightning certainly a possibility. so that's how we start thursday. then here's that weather front, which could bring the thundery weather for a time across some southern parts of the uk. now, the air�*s relatively warm — it's actually coming in out of the east—south—east. but because the north sea is quite cold, see that wind blowing off the north sea? it will actually drag in that cooler air to the north sea coasts. so that does mean that places like newcastle and hull could only be around, say, 13, 1a, 15, whereas out towards the west it could be as high as 20 degrees celsius. so that was thursday. this is friday, still a possibility of some showers brought in by that easterly breeze, maybe the odd crack of thunder as well. the best of the weather probably in western parts of scotland on friday. and in one or two spots we could even see highs reaching 20 degrees celsius. the north sea coast, once again, will be fairly chilly. so that outlook then, yes, it is going to be a bit of a mixed bag.
11:28 pm
it's not going to be particularly cold — temperatures, in fact, closer to the average for the time of the year. that's it for me. bye— bye.
11:29 pm
