Missiles have hit a busy diy store in kharkiv, killing at least two people and injuring others. The shop is in a residential area and injuring others. The shop is in a residential area and ukrainian Officials Say russia also hit a school and other buildings in the city. President zelensky says more than 200 people could have been inside the diy store. The mayor of kharkiv says there are a large number of people missing following the strike. Earlier this month, Russian Forces began a renewed offensive in the kharkiv region, in an attempt to break through a weakened ukrainian front line. Heres one of the shop workers whos explaining what had happened.

Our International Editor jeremy bowen is in kharkiv and sent this update from the scene of the attack. Ive just been talking to the mayor. He said this happened about 4 oclock in the afternoon, which as i speak to you now, is a couple of hours ago. Two people were killed, he says, here in the park, in the parking area. There are, ithink, 11 people, employees of the business who are missing at the moment. Its a diy superstore, an obvious place, you think, for civilians to go on a saturday afternoon. One of the strange incongruities of the war is that in a way, a modicum of normal life does go on while the war continues. So, people were out doing what they had to do when this place was hit, they say, by two russian supplied bombs. Now, this will underline the anxiety that ukrainians feel about not having suitable air defences. President zelensky has said so repeatedly and hes said so again now after this, that ukraine needs to be able to defend itself, and of course it relies upon its western allies for doing all of that. From the Russian Point of view, this is another sign of their growing strength and the way in which theyre taking advantage of what appears to be a window of opportunity for them to up their Military Effort. While ukraine waits for the kind of reinforcements of weapons to up their Military Effort while ukraine waits for the kind of reinforcements of weapons and ammunition that it wants from its allies, which have been held up, particularly in the united states. And also, while the ukrainians train more troops, theres a manpower shortage, too. So, this, quite frankly, at the moment is for the ukrainians, one of the most anxious periods since those first months after the full scale invasion more than two years ago. Thanks to jeremy for that. Now to the uk election, and Party Leaders are kicking off a weekend of campaigning around the country ahead of the General Election on the lith ofjuly.

Stability is change its strange to say in 202a. Stability is change its strange to say in 2024, but a stable economy has to be the first step of an incoming Labour Government. And that is what will make an absolute priority if we are privileged enough to come in to serve.

For rishi sunak, it was a low key visit a cuppa with veterans in the north of england. He answered some gentle concerns about his drenching in downing street. It was wet. The amount of people whove given me an umbrella over the last couple of days. But no journalistss questions. Instead, a Treasury Minister defended the government. Inflation when they came in was 11. 1 . | now its down to almost target, 2. 3 . That doesnt happen by accident. Its not all the government working in partnership with the bank of england.

This reportedly broke out in a Building Housing and amusement arcade. There are pictures circulating saying their ambulances they are the building. The roof has apparently collapsed in a Police Spokesperson said four people have been arrested in connection. Do stay with us. Im Lewis Vaughanjones with us. Im Lewis Vaughanjones with bbc news. Hello there. The weather has been a bit warmer for many of us today, with more sunshine around as well. But things are going to change as it gets wetter overnight, leading into a mixture for sunday and Bank Holiday Monday of some sunshine, but also some heavy and thundery showers. Its warm today, though, across the north west of england, where we had the sunshine. Very different picture, though, earlier on in norfolk and here in suffolk with cloud and some rain. And that cloud has been coming in from off the north sea, dampening things down somewhat. Weve also got this cloud thats pushing in from the south west, and this is where were seeing some rain arriving as well. And that cloud of rain that weve got across south Western Areas will continue to work its way northwards and eastwards into more of england and wales overnight. Some heavier rain develops in northern england, pushes into southern scotland, too. So, with a lot of cloud overnight and it getting wetter as well, temperatures should be typically 10 or 11 degrees by the morning. And quite a wet start for some of us early on Sunday Morning these two areas of rain are pushing their way northwards. And following on from that, well get some sunshine, but well see those showers developing as well. And those showers could be heavy and thundery. The greatest risk of some slow moving, thundery downpours will be across northern england, into the midlands, across to east anglia. Risk of some local flooding as well. But with more showers around on sunday, temperatures are going to be lower than today. Still could make 19 degrees, perhaps, in south Eastern Parts of england. Those showers are still around into the evening and they will tend to fade away from england and wales, but well keep some wetter weather for longer further north. And here, weve got this area of low pressure that will still be sitting close by into Bank Holiday Monday, and again, weve got a mixture of sunshine and some showers. Now, many places may start dry across england and wales and northern ireland, but the cloud will bubble up, there will be a scattering of showers developing. Perhaps the heavier ones are going to be across central and northern parts of scotland with some thunder. Again, in the sunshine and in the light winds, it will feel pleasant enough. Those temperatures are typically going to be 16 or 17 degrees, and those numbers are not really going to change much over the week ahead. Well keep a south westerly wind going into the early parts of next week, eventually turning to more of a north westerly and cooling things down a bit in the far north west. But otherwise, its still going to be very unsettled. More areas of low pressure coming in, bringing showers or longer spells of rain and some sunshine in between. Live from london, this is bbc news.

Hello, lewis. Manchester united have won the english fa cup, beating rivals Manchester City 2 1 at wembley in a match that many had billed as erik ten hags last in charge of united. As rumours swirled that the manager might be sacked regardless of the result, his team produced a shock against the premier League Champions Alejandro Garnacho taking advantage of a mistake to score the first, which another teenager Kobbie Mainoo added to before half time. Manchester city were attempting to win a Historic Second league and cup double in a row. But even Thoutheremy Doku scored late on, united held on for the victory a 13th fa cup, a place in europe and a trophy in each of ten hags two seasons as boss.

He will turn 38 during the tournament but says hes been encouraged by his form and fitness in recent weeks. Its a big, big chance thats going to be my last rolando aarons, but if i have to tell you its100 my lesser lung errors, sorry, buti tell you its100 my lesser lung errors, sorry, but i will not, because i cannot predict whats going on my last rolando garros. My going on my last rolando garros. My personal feelings are better than a month and half ago, without a doubt, so in some way i dont want to close 100 the door. Its been dubbed one of the biggest Grudge Matches in british boxing history. Jack catterall will get his chance for revenge when he faces josh taylor in a re match of their Light Welterweight Clash on saturday. The pair fought in 2022 with many observers believing that catterall won the fight, but the judges gave it in favour of taylor, who was then the undisputed king of the division although hes since lost the belts. Catterall has long called for a re match and will finally get the chance to avenge that controversial loss. It will be a relief come saturday. Its been a fight that has been dockable way before the first fight, and then two years in the aftermath since the first fight, so our names have been linked. In a roundabout way, is good for boxing and its good for us, the driver we have created, but to win convincingly saturday, draw a line under and move on with my career, that of the good. Plenty of live sports for you to follow ongoing, and plenty reaction to the two cup finals we have had in the uk as well, but thats it for now. Back to you, lewis. Thanks for that. Lets get more on the uk General Election. A Parliamentary Committee has written to rishi sunak to say the government should be prepared for the possibility of foreign interference during the General Election. The letter calls on the Electoral Commission the independent body overseeing elections to issue guidance on how to spot deepfakes and other types of misinformation online, Warning Members of the public may not fully understand how these threats may appear. There has been a recent example of Election Interference using ai. Over in the united states, an ai generated Robocall Imitating president joe bidens voice was commissioned by a rival political consultant to dissuade people from voting for him in new hampshires democratic primary election. Lets take a listen to the call that was obtained by cnn. Its important that you save your vote for the november election.

I think there i are two main trends at the moment. The first is, we are in the worsening geopolitical environment, our relationship nationally and internationally with russia, and china, is not great, and in the last five or ten years, theres been clear evidence of both of these countries trying to subvert democratic processes in the uk, in europe, in the us, and indeed elsewhere, and theyre becoming increasingly brazen in doing so. The second element i think is the technological tools they now have at their disposal to interfere in our democracies, whether thats the political use of ransomware, whether its synthetic media, youve just shown the clip of the robo call of a call mimicking joe biden cosmic voice in seemingly a very authentic way, whether thats more traditional hack and leak operations, or indeed disinformation, disseminating through social media, these countries have technological tools to reach out and harm our democracy directly.

Yeah, i think theres been heightened awareness in the tech i heightened awareness in the tech sector of these problems, and there has been evidence for example to indicate communiques coming out of the Munich Security Conference recently, these companies are getting together to remove malicious content on their platforms, the problem really is the scope and scale of this. Companies do Employ Thousands of people to content moderate, but disinformation spread so quickly and such a scale, its a difficult thing to take down and theres a fine line between what you take down and whether that could be considered legitimate information or disinformation. So there are some real challenges for the tech company in this space. One of the things i know they are doing is trying to develop new technologies which would enable us to identify defects and synthetic media more easily, things like widgets embedded in web browsers for example that would watermark a synthetic content deepfakes and synthetic media. Ultimately, technology is not the solution. Weve got to be more proactive as governments and also as individual people and trying to protect ourselves in this space. {lilia protect ourselves in this space. Ok, so lastl , protect ourselves in this space. Ok, so lastly. Then. Protect ourselves in this space. Ok, so lastly, then, as protect ourselves in this space. Ok, so lastly, then, as individuals, what are we looking for . If an image. How do you train question an image or a video and try and check whether it is real or not . When 20 20 you can do is look at source of it. Thats for if it is a Phishing E Mail that does not look authentic, look at the source, look at where it has come from in terms of synthetic audio or video or pictures. Where is this content being hosted . We do have legitimate well established news organisations, the bbc included, that are not likely to carry this content and will have fairly robust mechanisms to take that content down or establish whether it is a fake before it is posted, so i would encourage everyone to question the source of the content, to have conversations with their families about whether they think its real or fake, about whether they think its real orfake, cannot about whether they think its real or fake, cannot trust everything they see on the internet, and this really i think is going to involve a multiyear Public Awareness effort around this new technology. Jae around this new technology. Joe burton, thank you very much for coming on The Programme. Next, g7 Finance Ministers say theyve made progress in finding ways to use profits from frozen russian assets to help ukraine as they wrapped up a meeting in italy, Envisioning A Concrete Proposal to present to a Leaders Summit next month. Heres our World Business reporter david waddell. 300 billion in russian assets is held in western jurisdictions. 300 billion in russian assets is held in westernjurisdictions. The us has argued those assets should be used to help ukraine, the European Union has argued instead that profits or Interest Payments from those assets should be used instead. What ackley been agreed is that a 50 billion loan will be issued to ukraine based on future profits and future Interest Payments. The actual due will be agreed by g7 leaders at their summit due will be agreed by g7 leaders at Theirsummit In Due will be agreed by g7 leaders at their summit in italy next month. The European Union has been concerned about the unpredictable legal implications of a deal like this and those invocations are becoming clearer. Russia has accused the g7 of state level theft and it says it could reciprocate in kind by Leveraging Western Assets held by russia. So why� s this deal taking place now . The ukraine invasion took place now . The ukraine invasion took place just over 27 month ago. Thats a year and three months as of friday. Ukraine was doing rather well in pushing back russian advances soon after the russian invasion, but it is struggling militarily now, and russia was expected to suffer more deeply from a western sanctions, but india and china are accused of supporting russias war economy. There is one other factor, russias war economy. There is one otherfactor, and russias war economy. There is one other factor, and that is the upcoming us president ial election in november. The g7 leaders have today of today are concerned a reelected president from could mean supporting ukraine in the future could become more difficult. Thanks to david for that. Now to the elections in south africa. The African National Congress Party has dominated politics. Presidency or rim oppose are in danger of losing the majority for the first time. Fergal keane, who ported on the end of apartheid, has returned to south africa and sent this report. It was one of those rare shining moments. Archive the end of the order of racial discrimination, of segregation, the end of the age of pain and humiliation for millions of black south africans. An extraordinary story unfolding. Archive white rule on the continent of africa came to an end at 7 00 south african time this morning. When history shuffled forward with the promise of equality and justice for all. 30 years later, loud and energetic, democracy has endured. The ruling anc talks of promises delivered on housing and services, but its presided over a massive corruption. Archive it is dawn on the margins of existence. Back in 1994, they hoped for a very different south africa. Hopes i heard from the poor of the squatter camps. I want to live in a nice house with my children, because im suffering. I want to be the same like the white people. A single mother, Cynthia Mthebe scavenged on a dump for tin cans which she sold to feed her seven children. If you dont work, you cant eat. You must work very hard. Now, as south africa prepares to vote, ive come back to find out whats happened to cynthia and her hopes. Id meet her again in a rural area, where shed come to escape the squalor and crime of the squatter camps. Im so happy to see you. But cynthia, now 78, is blind and ill. Its so lovely. Yeah. Its you, fergal its me. You cant see me at the moment, can you . But you can hear me. There we go. She has a house but built by her children, not the state. No running water, frequent power cuts. What do you think of how the country is now . Oh, south africa. Theres no life. Theres no life in south africa. Cynthia escaped from this, but apartheids legacy of poverty and anc corruption have hurt. Son amos was shot by criminals and is lame. He cant find a job. Daughterjoyce, also among the more than 30 of unemployed people. They survive because daughter doris set up her own small shop and helps everyone else. Ok, guys, im going to show you something here that youve never seen. The mthebes asked us to see the old film of their lives. You must work very hard. Do people get sick . In their reaction, the measure of whats been endured. On laptop fergal keane, bbc news. Things are better now, but still were still pulling hard. So my mother, i want to thank this lady. Because of her, im who i am. I really, mum, i love you. And i want to be like you. Back in 1994, cynthias shack was demolished in the last days of apartheid. Forward to now, a few kilometres from where i first met her. The destroyed shacks of a new generation. The homeless, in the worlds most unequal society, where the top 10 own 86 of the wealth. This land is slated for development, including houses for the poor. But the waiting is long. In the meantime, shotguns keep trespassers at bay. Theres people suffering. But they can say, vote for me, vote for me, always. Thats why i was saying, im not going out to vote. Im staying at home. Singing the generations of mthebe women, like so many other of this nations poor, who, when elections have come and gone, will be holding theirfamilies and their country together. Fergal keane, bbc news, klipgat, south africa. There was an extraordinary moment in parliament this week when the conservative mp Craig Mackinlay returned to the commons with four prosthetic limbs after losing them to sepsis last year. Alex lewis from hampshire went through a similar ordeal ten years ago, also losing four limbs to sepsis. Hes been speaking to Linzi Kinghorn about his rehabilitation. Ever since i lost my limbs, its always been, how do i prove to my son that i can still live an amazing life, do some great things . Alex is a quadruple amputee after having contracted strep a in 2013. Drjeff watson was one of the team who saved his life. Hed come in, having collapsed on a sunday afternoon, having been a bit unwell for a few days, and my colleagues had admitted him to the icu severely septic. So i came in on the Monday Morning and found him on absolutely maximum life support, everything. So that was my first meeting with alex, and then i met with his family and explained that he was going to die and he failed to achieve the target. Now, both are teaming up to take on an extraordinary challenge, rowing and cycling across the south coast, something they think has never been done before. There is no information anywhere about any other quad amputee even attempting it, so weve had to develop attachments i can release from, because obviously im attached to the oar in my prosthetics, so what happens if i fall in the water . So weve done all sorts of capsize drills, drowning drills, to learn what happens when i do go in the water. What are your biggest concerns . The sea and the weather. Although were doing it injune, it still can be pretty unpredictable, especially in the uk. Prosthetics, how do they cope in salt water . We dont really know. How do i cope in salt water, in extreme heat . Days get to about 25 degrees its going to be really hot out there and were hot all the time anyway as quad amps. So how am i going to cope with that . Sores, the rubbing, the physical degradation of my right arm, i would think, over that period of time in the water. Another quadruple amputee, the kent mp Craig Mackinlay, made headlines this week after returning to parliament after suffering a life threatening episode of sepsis which led to the amputation of his hands and feet. I dont think anybody had a dry eye when we saw him go back into the commons. It was just amazing, the reception. And i was sat there watching it and i was tingling, thinking how. Similar experiences like that. And its unbelievable. When i left hospital, i think the military had about 2,500 charities supporting injured servicemen and i think the uk had about four for civilians, so we were a real minority. Alex is hoping to raise money for three charities, including his own, the alex lewis trust. Living life as an amputee has been the best thing for me ever, and if you could give me my legs and arms back, i wouldnt take them, because the last ten years, weve packed in so much, its just been incredible. Linzi kinghorn, bbc news, in hampshire. Applying make up, eating fast food and using a laptop are just some of the activities drivers have been filmed doing while on the motorway.

Thats about it from me. 20 more online, of course, and the latest with the Football Results too. Do stay with us. Plainmoor coming up, headlines at the top of the hour. I am a Lewis Vaughanjones. This is bbc news. Hello there. The weather has been a bit warmer for many of us today, with more sunshine around as well. But things are going to change as it gets wetter overnight, leading into a mixture for sunday and Bank Holiday Monday of some sunshine, but also some heavy and thundery showers. Its warm today, though, across the north west of england, where we had the sunshine. Very different picture, though, earlier on in norfolk and here in suffolk with cloud and some rain. And that cloud has been coming in from off the north sea, dampening things down somewhat. Weve also got this cloud thats pushing in from the south west, and this is where were seeing some rain arriving as well. And that cloud of rain that weve got across south Western Areas will continue to work its way northwards and eastwards into more of england and wales overnight. Some heavier rain develops in northern england, pushes into southern scotland, too. So, with a lot of cloud overnight and it getting wetter as well, temperatures should be typically 10 or 11 degrees by the morning. And quite a wet start for some of us early on Sunday Morning these two areas of rain are pushing their way northwards. And following on from that, well get some sunshine, but well see those showers developing as well, and those showers could be heavy and thundery. The greatest risk of some slow moving, thundery downpours will be across northern england, into the midlands, across to east anglia risk of some local flooding as well. But with more showers around on sunday, temperatures are going to be lower than today. Still could make 19 degrees, perhaps, in south Eastern Parts of england. Those showers are still around into the evening and they will tend to fade away from england and wales, but well keep some wetter weather for longer further north. And here, weve got this area of low pressure that will still be sitting close by into Bank Holiday Monday, and again, weve got a mixture of sunshine and some showers. Now, many places may start dry across england and wales and northern ireland, but the cloud will bubble up, there will be a scattering of showers developing. Perhaps the heavier ones are going to be across central and northern parts of scotland with some thunder. Again, in the sunshine and in the light winds, it will feel pleasant enough. Those temperatures are typically going to be 16 or 17 degrees, and those numbers are not really going to change much over the week ahead. Well keep a south westerly wind going into the early parts of next week, eventually turning to more of a north westerly and cooling things down a bit in the far north west. But otherwise, its still going to be very unsettled more areas of low pressure coming in, bringing showers or longer spells of rain and some sunshine in between. Live from london, this is bbc news.
