Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
Police are hunting two suspects after an officer was shot in Nottingham city centre. The officer, injured in the foot, had approached a man and a woman on Angel Road shortly before 5am; the pair ran off and the officer is in a stable condition in hospital.
The health secretary warned that the NHS faces more challenges this winter than normal and announced a £140 million boost for urgent care in England, after almost 7.3 million people attended A&E between June and August, the highest figure for a summer period. The money will fund 14 schemes including urgent care centres, ambulance fleets and emergency department upgrades. Cost of living protests in France led to more than 2,000 arrests there, with fresh clashes in Paris and unrest in Milan where protesters threw stones at riot police, injuring at least two officers, amid anger at rising petrol, energy and food prices.
Tributes are being paid to an 80-year-old flying instructor, understood to be Ian Haggis, who died in a light aircraft crash near Loch Lomond; a 16-year-old boy also died when the plane came down near Drymen on Friday after taking off from Glasgow Airport about 20 minutes earlier. Pope Leo thanked crowds in St Peter's Square for their prayers after lung surgery earlier in the week, appearing at the window for his Sunday blessing four days after a cancerous growth was removed and saying he will gradually return to his duties.
