tonight at 10: ukraine says it has sunk a russian warship in the black sea. the ukrainian military says it launched a drone attack against the landing craft off the coast of occupied crimea. also tonight — a developing story in kansas city, where one person has been killed and several others injured after shots were fired during a superbowl victory parade. it happened a short time ago — this was the moment one tv reporter heard gunfire. guys, guys, guys, guys, quysr guys, guys, guys,

over israel turn out to be an election year headache for keir starmer? good evening. ukraine says it has destroyed a russian warship in the black sea off the coast of occupied crimea. the ukrainian military says the drone attack on a large craft caused it to sink. there's been no confirmation from moscow. elsewhere, ukraine is struggling on parts of the front line. tonight, the foreign secretary, lord cameron, urged the us congress to back a new package of military support for ukraine — warning against what he called the "the folly of giving in to tyrants". from kyiv, our ukraine correspondent, james waterhouse, reports. heavy rock music plays. as the dramatic music suggests, ukraine's military wanted to make a noise about this latest strike.

several marine drones, packed with explosives, head towards a russian landing ship in the black sea. they're designed to leave a mark. crimea has been occupied by russia for a decade. the russian navy has dominated the black sea, but that's started to change. ukraine says this ship was destroyed here, near the south coast. kyiv claims it was the caesar kunikov, in the centre here. bbc verify has confirmed it is at least the same type of russian vessel. these features are the same. landing ships are the most efficient way for russia to move machinery and men for its continued invasion. while it's not clear who or what was on board, it's another dent in russia's dominance around occupied crimea. translation: today, we have . increased security in the black sea and added motivation to our people. this is important. step—by—step, we will clear

the black sea of russian terrorists. explosion. ukraine has previous when it comes to striking russian vessels in the south. in december, a missile caused this. suggesting ammunition was on board. it's a strategy which has frustrated moscow and unblocked ukrainian ports. according to this man, a military analyst, it's a kyiv success story. translation: after the damage inflicted today, this ship - is impossible to repair. now they will have nine large landing ships remaining. this slightly decreases russia's capacity to supply troops in crimea. this is part of kyiv�*s long game. by targeting russian supply lines in the south, it hopes to eventually isolate invading troops in occupied crimea and it's a strategy which is working over water. but the story on land is a different

one, where political delays in the west are having real time consequences on the front line. and those are being felt the most in the eastern city of avdiivka. the russians released this footage as they surround defending ukrainians with the dwindling ammunition. the country's new head of the armed forces called the situation here complicated and tense, and you can see why. it doesn't just stop it doesn'tjust stop in avdiivka. general oleksandr syrskyi, ukraine's new commander—in—chief, visited the north—east and there is possibly a political benefit to him being honest, frankly, about what is going on for ukraine on the front line. so also with ukraine talking up small wins like the destruction of this landing ship off the coast of

occupied crimea. they do have an effect but as i said, this is a long—term strategy for ukraine. victories like this, good news that the military gets to share, are becoming increasingly rare and that is symptomatic of what is going on. this time last year, there was talk of a counteroffensive. now, it's increasingly about hanging on. james waterhouse, thank you. in the united states, police in kansas city say multiple people have been hit by gunfire during a victory parade for the american football super bowl winners. and one person has been killed. the shots were fired towards the end of the parade. there were chaotic scenes and thousands of people on the streets. police say they have arrested two armed suspects. our north america correspondent tom bateman has the latest. i need you to go, i need you to go. people still in their sports shirts tend to the wounded. a celebration turned to chaos in the streets of kansas city. mi

that turned violent. tom bateman with the latest, thank you. inflation remained at 1r% last month, despite a rise in energy bills. the office for national statistics says the rate at which prices rise held steady partly because of falling food prices. it's the first time since september 2021 that the cost of food has dropped month on month. here's our chief economics correspondent, dharshini david. from food... ..to shoe repairs, warrington market hosts a range of traders with one thing in common — surviving rather than thriving, as costs rise. historically, shoe repairs should sort of increase on times like this, really. but we're just not seeing it, i think largely down to sort of lack...lack of footfall, really. people just haven't got the money. instead of buying a pound of cheese, they'll buy three quarters of a pound of cheese, you know, which is fine, you know, but i'd rather they have the pound of cheese. for their customers are struggling, and notjust because of a hike

in energy bills injanuary. some things are coming down but on a general basis, - it's not really coming down enough. potentially, i have to cut my maternity leave early, just to be able to go back to work so i can put him in nursery to be able to afford things. for many things are still getting more expensive. well, inflation overall stayed at 1r% in january, and that was a relief for policymakers who were concerned those energy bills would have pushed it up. but those were offset by heavy discounting in clothes and furniture as retailers slashed prices after some disappointing sales in the run up to christmas. and food prices, too, slipped between december and january — the first such fall in two years, as ingredients became cheaper. and inflation overall should fall below the bank of england's 2% target later in the spring, when the energy price cap falls back. but its other parts of inflation that those interest rate setters watch more closely. those for services such

as restaurant meals and hotel stays, that rose injanuary. while wage growth, which the bank also watches, is easing quite slowly. so they don't want to risk reigniting inflation by cutting rates too soon, leaving more cash in pockets for us to spend. however, back in warrington, florist elizabeth says customers had to think more creatively to afford valentine's day treats. red roses were the best sellers and lily bouquets, but the tulip bouquet is the most popular so far this year, and they're half the price of what the roses are, and lilies. and the bank of england's aware the economy isn't blooming. numbers tomorrow could reveal it went further into reverse at the end of 2023 — a mild recession — and that could have a bearing on when that first rate cut is delivered. dharshini david, bbc news. the prime minister has criticised

a pro—palestinian protest outside the home of a conservative mp in bournemouth on monday night. dozens of people gathered outside tobias ellwood's house holding banners and calling for a ceasefire in gaza. rishi sunak has condemned what he called aggressive mobs targeting mps. lucy manning reports. one, two, three, four... outside tobias elwood's home in dorset, a crowd of pro—palestinian demonstrators chanting on monday night — posters with his face, bloody hands, claims he's complicit in genocide, the mp and his family told by police to stay away for their safety. mr ellwood, who's criticised both hamas and the israeli leadership, says this intimidation of mps and their families is unacceptable. holding rallies outside of parliament, outside an mp's office is one thing, but advertising the private address to mobilise

an aggressive, intimidating rally at an mp's residential property, impacting notjust on the family but also neighbours as well, for me, is a step too far. this cannot be normalised. mps from all parties have been threatened. labour mpjo stevens's cardiff office was daubed with "murderer" after a commons vote on gaza. the conservative mp mike freer is stepping down. his office was burned down, though police said this wasn't a hate crime, but he says he has been targeted for his support for israel and thejewish community. mps have spoken about how they are scared for themselves and their families. they have received updated security advice in the light of the recent protests about the middle east and the spike in abusive and threatening behaviour. the commons authorities say mps' ability to do theirjobs here and in their constituencies is fundamental to democracy. the prime minister, writing on social media, said mps were increasingly

being targeted by aggressive mobs. he wrote: the demonstrators claim their protest was legitimate, as the mp had ignored their concerns, but mr ellwood said mps can't be viewed as fair game. lucy manning, bbc news. labour has said it will block anyone who is not fit to be an mp, as it responds to the row about comments made by two of it its candidates about the israel gaza war. in the past week, the party has suspended two of its parliamentary candidates over comments they allegedly made at a meeting, which the bbc has been told was attended by labour politicians and leaders from the local muslim community. our political correspondent, ben wright, has more. he's wearing a red rosette but he's no longer a candidate labour supports. azhar ali's campaign leaflets

are dropping through letter boxes in rochdale today ahead of a by—election that's whipped up a storm of problems for labour. mr ali was suspended from the party on monday after apparently making anti—semitic remarks at a meeting attended by local labour politicians and others in lancashire last autumn. but it was too late to boot him off the ballot paper. and last night, labour suspended a second parliamentary candidate, the former mp graham jones, after he apparently made critical remarks about israel at the same meeting. labour's investigating that, too. it's all a huge headache for the party. you can't see everything everywhere. what's important is that if new information comes to light, as in this case, we will act to investigate, we will act to block those who are not fit to serve as mp5. this has all shone a spotlight on candidate selection within labour, its vetting methods and procedures. there's another issue this row raises — the difference between criticism of israel on one hand, and anti—semitism, which labour has vowed

to purge from the party. people have to separate their legitimate criticisms of israel with general comments made about thejewish people. just like we have to separate hamas from the palestinian people, we have to separate benjamin netanyahu and his far—right government from the israeli people. it has been a tough few days for the labour leadership and a reminder of the party's recent past. it's hardly been the party's finest hour but it's ludicrous to claim that we're back to where we were under corbyn when it comes to anti—semitism. starmer has shown real leadership with it and we've worked with him to make sure that the party is up to scratch and can rebuild trust with the jewish community. can they do more? yes, and we'll make sure that they will do more. we must always be vigilant. when mps are back here next week, the snp will hold a vote calling for an immediate ceasefire in gaza, a conflict that continues to inflame deep divisions in the labour party. ben wright, bbc news, westminster. the rochdale by—election will take

place on 29th february. here is the full list of candidates standing. farmers in northern india have clashed with police for a second day as they continue their attempt to march on the capital, delhi. security forces used drones to drop tear gas on protesters. farmers are demanding minimum guaranteed prices for their crops. our south asia correspondent samira hussain reports. explosions. india's farmers have a message for the government — and they want to go to the capital to deliver it. in response, the police drop canisters of tear gas. and then everything turns chaotic. canisters explode. the barrage is unrelenting. men shout. every time the government drops tear gas, people disperse, but the farmers come back. that just shows you their determination. shouting and explosions. the acrid smell and that feeling of getting that tear gas into your nose and your nostrils, it's incredible. this is the government

and paramilitary forces that are lobbing tear gas onto farmers that are protesting here for better financial protections. canisters explode. they're demanding fair prices for their crops, debt forgiveness and pensions. india's farmers have been here before. in 2020 they spent more than a year protesting against agricultural reforms. armed with the same resolve, they are in it for the long haul. translation: when it comesl to growing food in this country, that is when they need farmers. but when the farmers want fair prices, the same farmers become a terrorist or separatists for the government. this time, the government is taking no chances, erecting barricades at every major entry point to new delhi, turning the capital into a fortress. farmers are left using kites

to distract police drones, so uneven is the use of force. canister explodes. it seems prime minister modi's regime's tolerance for peaceful protests has reached its limits. samira hussain, bbc news, punjab. next week it will be two years since russia invaded ukraine uprooting 10 million people from their homes. at the start of the conflict our special correspondent fergal keane reported from the western city of lviv as huge numbers of refugees tried to cram onto trains and escape. fergal has returned to lviv to find out what happened to some of the people he met. people shout. they were fleeing europe's biggest refugee crisis since world war ii. people are just crushing all around me, trying to get onto these trains. woman screams. a woman, a young mother with a baby there, screaming, because everyone's getting crushed. but two years on, what happened

to the people fleeing — and those helping them? among the volunteers was dr natasha ambarova, helping some of the 10 million uprooted from their homes. now, after helping so many escape, she's still in lviv... child exclaims. ..and seeing the traumatic impact of war on herfamily. natasha is teaching medicine,

knowing any of her students could end up on the front line. and now she's ready to fight. you're a doctor, you save lives, but part of you wants to kill. mm—hm. it's my war, yeah. from the beginning, at the station, natasha was hearing direct testimony of russian cruelty. some of the worst stories were coming from the besieged city of mariupol. you're from mariupol? we met the verstiuk family —

among them, 86—year—old grandmother maria and her daughter ludmilla. maria fell several times in a basement shelter. bell rings. a year later we found the family living in ukraine's peaceful carpathian mountains, but haunted by memories of what they'd left behind.

six months after we filmed this interview, maria died in exile. buried far from her husband and mariupol, the city she loved. dog barks. bugle plays. the war�*s sadness is everywhere now. in lviv recently, the funeral of yaroslav mikholev, one of 380,000 ukrainian soldiers killed or wounded. as we filmed, a veteran erupted in rage. man howls in anguish. man shouts. "death to the enemy," he shouts.

an end to the dying, the exile, seems very far away. man continues shouting. fergal keane, bbc news, lviv. and you can see the full our world film return to platform 5 on the bbc iplayer. there have been more warnings about the impact that artificial intelligence and so—called deepfake images and videos could have on crucial elections in both britain and the united states. a top us law enforcement official has told the bbc that the technology could incite violence even chaos and that tougher sentences will now be introduced for criminal use of ai. here's our security correspondent gordon corera. making a copy of yourself can take just a few moments, as i learnt in this interactive exhibition. but that means making a copy of someone else, what's often called a deepfake, is also getting easier — thanks to artificial intelligence.

that's worrying those in charge of security, especially when it comes to a year in which two billion people are expecting to vote in elections around the world. a few weeks ago, voters in america's new hampshire primary election heard this. it's important that you save your vote for the november election. what sounds like president biden telling them not to cast a ballot, but it wasn't real. it was a deepfake. voting this tuesday only enables the republicans in their quest to elect donald trump again. on a visit to london, one of america's top law enforcement officials told me of the potential dangers of ai. it can have people — cause people to distrust the sources of information that they're getting, to dissuade them or confuse them in terms of exercising their right to vote. to incite violence, certainly, that's something that we're worried about. and to just generally sow distrust and potentially chaos.

one fear is al fakes could be used to spark protests, like those after the last us presidential election. but us law enforcement is also using al to help in its own work, for instance, in sifting through images of that attack to identify suspects. and now authorities say they plan to tackle the use of ai in crimes with tougher sentences. our laws recognise that when you use a firearm during the commission of a crime, it makes it more serious. so we're going to be applying that same principle and seeking stiffer sentences. artificial intelligence looks set to test democracy in this coming year, asking difficult questions. in a world of ai—generated deepfakes, it's becoming harder to know what's real and what's not, what's truth and what's an illusion. gordon correra, bbc news.

ten roman gems that were stolen from the british museum will go on display to the public tomorrow. the items are among around 350 recovered after the museum discovered that some of its precious pieces had been stolen and sold on ebay. the thefts came to light last year. our culture editor, katie razzall, has the story. tiny gems made of glass, stolen, along with hundreds of others, from the store rooms of the british museum. now, ten recovered gems, mostly dating back to classical times, are on display as part of a wider exhibition. these are some of the ones that have been recovered recently. sir markjones is the museum's interim director. this one, for example, isjupiter with ganymede. he was brought in to run this place after the british museum announced last year that items from its collection were missing, stolen or damaged. a member of staff was dismissed. how is the recovery process going? it's complicated and it's lengthy. it's going to take us

at least a couple of years. i think we've recovered 356 so far, out of 15 or 1600 that we believed to have been stolen. and i'm sure that we're going to do a great deal better than that. that wonderful little item that can tell you so much about the ancient world... aurelia masson—berghoff is on the recovery team. gems, often used as seals or worn as jewellery, were once highly coveted, but they fell out of fashion — one explanation why many were unregistered and perhaps easier to steal. what we want to do is celebrate these once forgotten objects, and we're actually very excited about the whole registration drive that the museum is conducting now and documenting everything. the british museum is trying to build a positive story after the thefts. the exhibition is its attempt to signal openness and transparency. but this institution is still grappling with the fallout of what happened. the police investigation is ongoing and many hundreds of items stolen

from here remain unaccounted for. do you feel a sense of shame and embarrassment on the part of the british museum for having to have this exhibition at all? every museum feels a strong sense of responsibility for the objects in its care, and clearly that care was missing. but change, says the british museum, is now under way. katie razzall, bbc news. a0 years to the day since torvill and dean won gold at the winter olympics in sarajevo, they have returned to the city. the british ice skating champions have announced that they are finally parting ways — but not before a farewell tour next year. verity cowley reports from sarajevo. ravel's bolero plays. a final performance, in the place where it all began. the tune that's been synonymous with these two now forfour decades... ravel's bolero plays. ..ever since the day this groundbreaking performance brought them olympic gold

and worldwide fame. the pair have returned to the site of the original zetra stadium ice rink, where they're still vips. we could sort of see where the judges were, would be, our parents were over there... the scoreboard where the marks came up. yeah, those marks! those marks! yeah. while in sarajevo, they met the next generation of skaters. the city hopes sport can be used to overcome any divisions still remaining after the war that destroyed the original stadium here 32 years ago. next year, 2025, is our 50th year of skating together, half a century, which is, even when i say it... it's a long time. it's a long time! an incredible performance, at 65 and 66 years old. the couple will do one final farewell tour next year before
