reach everyone they wanted to reach who were affected by that earthquake. the government has said that the rescue operations are ongoing. the death toll from the earthquake is now 48 people, 48 people are known to have died, but officials have said that it is likely to rise because the rescue operations are far from over. let's just update you on the breaking news we are reporting on. the transport minister injapan has confirmed that five people are dead end that plane collision injapan. we understand that those are the five crew who were previously listed as missing from the coastguard aeroplane which appears to have collided with the japan airlines passenger plane causing a massive fire that we have been monitoring. those five dead now into coastguard crew. the pilots had managed to get

out from the coastguard plane. we will bring you the latest on that story as soon as we get it. let's move on down to 48 people are now known to have died in the powerful earthquake that struck the centre of japan on new year's day. other people are feared to be trapped in the rubble. the prime minister has said the quake is because numerous casualties and extensive damage. hundreds of building have collapsed or burnt down. some roads are blocked, hampering the rescue efforts. the prime minister has said he has ordered army personnel to get to disaster hit areas by any mean possible. we can speak to kenji satake — he's a professor at the earthquake research institute at the university of tokyo. have there been further aftershocks?

about the possible aftershocks. what is the information you are getting about the seismic activity as a result of this existing earthquake? we are experiencing many earthquakes. with an earthquake of this size, 7.6, there will be many aftershocks. but many small earthquakes have been happening before this. we don't know how long they will continue. the earthquake activity may be higher than in the standard 7.6 magnitude earthquake. thank you very much for your expertise. thank you. ukrainian officials have said that there is been people killed after heavy

bombardment in kyiv. vladimir putin said that he would intensify attacks on ukraine. you can see here the windows have been blasted through. smoke was billowing higher up. even the block on the other side has been blown through and the buildings across the road from there, such as the force generated from blast like this. in case it wasn't obvious this is from a missile, but russia uses drones as well. to be honest with you, we haven't seen attacks like this since the early days and weeks of the invasion. last night there was a six—hour nissan misano drone attack where defences could be heard all night and

where defences could be heard all nightand again where defences could be heard all night and again there were explosions this morning. vladimir putin said he wanted to respond to a ukrainian krona track across the border into russia this week despite it being in response to russia's biggest ever aerial bombardment of ukraine. the timing is also significant because there were fears russia have been stockpiling missiles like these to use around the new year period and with no more military aid set to arrive from the us for now, attacks like this test air defence systems which rely on continued western help to be replenished in the long term. so it is incredibly uncertain, it is an incredibly critical time for ukraine. wayne rooney has been sacked as the manager of the championship side birmingham city. he was appointed manager in october when the club are

for damaging and disruptive winds. with it, they've issued a met office amber weather warning for strong winds across parts of the south—west, south—east wales, the m4 corridor, south midlands towards east anglia. these are where the peak gusts are likely to be 60, maybe 70mph, causing some problems, but even more widely across the south we could still see winds top 60mph outside that warning area. some very strong winds today in the north of scotland. in between, the winds much lighter, but rain could be more of an issue. rain's the added feature to this storm, causing some flooding potentially across parts of wales, the midlands. that rain this afternoon sliding across northern england, the far south of scotland and just clips the east of northern ireland. it brightens up compared to this morning through central scotland. a brighter afternoon in southernmost counties, that rain eases, but the winds will continue to strengthen. a particularly wild evening rush hour across some of the south, particularly east anglia and the south—east before that rain gradually clears. lots of surface water and spray on the roads into the first part of the night and then, later on, a scattering of showers mainly across the south and the west, some of those

heavy and thundery. more in the way of persistent rain in 0rkney, with some sleet and snow mixed in shetland — two degrees here, but milder elsewhere to start the day. storm henk, though, is off in towards northern europe as we go through into wednesday. we're still left with a broad area of low pressure, though, and that means we're going to see it as a feeding ground for showers. more persistent rain through 0rkney, sleet and snow mixed in in shetland with strong winds remaining, and still blustery across the south, but nowhere near as windy as today. where you see the showers, especially across central parts of the country, they could be slow moving, there could be some heavy and thundery ones, but there will be some on wednesday who stay dry and a good deal brighter than you'll see through this afternoon. temperatures down a little bit, but still above where they should be for this stage in january. a colder night to take us into thursday. there's still a chance of some showers around, more particularly the north and the west, but an increased likelihood we could see some more persistent rain through the channel islands just clip into southern counties of england as we go through the second half of the day. temperatures starting to drop, but that area of rain and low pressure will move out the way as we go through into friday.

a few showers around on friday, but then for the weekend and beyond it looks like we should see a longer spell of drier weather. it will feel colder with overnight frost and fog, but thankfully no named storms.
