Two Reform UK officials, James Orr and Dan Jukes, stepped down and the party launched an investigation after undercover footage broadcast on this programme indicated they broke the law on political donations. The footage showed them appearing to try to bypass election law barring donations from overseas. The Liberal Democrats and Labour reported the actions to the police. Mr Jukes said he had been the victim of entrapment, while Mr Orr said he would cooperate fully with the party's investigation. A Reform spokesperson denied wrongdoing, saying the party had not broken any laws and had advice from their KC.

Two hydropower workers were rescued alive from a blocked tunnel nine days after Nepal's flash flood. The pair were pulled out of a tunnel at the Trishuli 3A plant, 170 metres underground, and flown to a hospital in Kathmandu, with one taken to intensive care in a critical condition. Nepali officials said they were hopeful that other workers could be rescued too.

A three-storey building collapsed during torrential rain and flooding in China's Fujian province, brought by Typhoon Saudul, inundating entire villages.
