our european respondent who was listening to that. a very passionate and emotional statement from yulia navalnaya outlining what happened to her husband and appealing to politicians in strasbourg and around the world to help her in herfight against president putin. the world to help her in her fight against president putin.- against president putin. that's ri . ht, against president putin. that's right. she _ against president putin. that's right, she started _ against president putin. that's right, she started first - against president putin. that's right, she started first of - against president putin. that's right, she started first of all i against president putin. that's| right, she started first of all by talking about the impact on her as the wife of alexei navalny, saying she used to come to strasbourg with the children in happier times and now she was returning to pick up the mantle, to continue the work that her late husband was doing. she gave us an insight into what the past 12 days have been like, battling to try and retrieve her husband's body for the russian authorities and trying to make plans for the funeral, which she confirmed would take place in moscow on friday afternoon. but she was saying that she's not sure whether it will be peaceful or

whether it will be peaceful or whether people would be arrested as they come and try to say goodbye to her husband and i think that is something we will be monitoring, whether the authorities to impose restrictions or what happens to people who come to pay tribute on friday to alexei navalny. she spoke about his fight _ friday to alexei navalny. she spoke about his fight over— friday to alexei navalny. she spoke about his fight over so _ friday to alexei navalny. she spoke about his fight over so many - friday to alexei navalny. she spoke about his fight over so many years i about his fight over so many years in russia and outside russia and how he had to be the master, she said of, being reinvention. she said, you have free and fair elections in europe, that is not possible in russia so she urged people to come up russia so she urged people to come up with new ways to fight the system almost, didn't she? she did, absolutely _ almost, didn't she? she did, absolutely. she _ almost, didn't she? she did, absolutely. she said - almost, didn't she? she did, absolutely. she said people | almost, didn't she? she did, i absolutely. she said people had almost, didn't she? she did, - absolutely. she said people had to be innovative, you cannot be boring with putin. she really made a parallel, comparison with the european elections that are happening in a few months and saying, imagine a scenario where you are a candidate doing an interview with the local tv and you run the risk of being arrested and all those around you. it is not a fair set up

in any way. she said this is the sort of freedom that people across the european union enjoy and the russian people should be able to enjoy those same freedoms and liberties but they are not able to. so she was mindful that people across the country, who she said their voice had been suppressed but they would want to do something and there will be asking themselves how they can help and she said, yes, it was to be innovative to fight president putin, her words were very strong, talking of him as a mobster, someone who presides over mafia gangs, and said he is not a politician you can do business with but somebody who is cold—hearted to all intents and purposes and that really, sanctions resolutions simply do not work. she called for stronger action and ended by saying that really, what is important is the money that sustains president putin. she called it mafia money. i thought one particular pack was extremely strong at the end, she said,

vladimir putin must answer for what he's done in russia what he has done to the neighbouring peaceful country, ukraine, but he has done to alexei navalny. she says there must be justice. alexei navalny. she says there must bejustice. her husband didn't live to see the dream of a and prosperous russia she said she will that work and she hoped the evil will fall in the beautiful future will come. and she hoped the evil will fall in the beautifulfuture will come. met. the beautifulfuture will come. net, thank ou. thank you. —— megan nick. some breaking news coming to us concerning prince harry, this is via reuters. he has lost his legal challenge against the british government's decision to take away his police protection when he is in britain. he had brought the action against the government at the high court in london after the home office decided on february —— february 2020 that he would cease to receive automatic police security

while in britain, that was of course when he decided to step away from becoming a working royal and move over to the united states. but he has long argued he still requires, needs and should have that police protection when he is here in the uk. but he has now lost his legal challenge against the british government's decision to take that police protection away when he is here in britain. we will bring you more and that and more analysis on what it means for him shortly here on bbc news. but return to those events in strasbourg, and that speech by yulia navalnaya, the widow of alexei navalny. she talked about the war in ukraine and the conditions that her late husband and had to endure under the putin regime. thank you. however, i am standing here because there is an important

question. your photos are asking it to you and your asking me. the question is, how can i help you in yourfight? last question is, how can i help you in your fight? last saturday was two years since putin started a full—scale war against ukraine. a brutal and sneaky war. the whole world rushed to ukraine's aid, but two years past. there is much exertion, much blood, much disappointment, and putin has gone nowhere. everything has already been used. weapons, money, sanctions. nothing is working. and the worst has happened, everyone got used to the war. here and there, people start to say, well, we will have to come to an agreement with putin anyway. and then, putin killed my husband, alexei navalny. on his

orders, alexei was tortured for three years. he was starved in a tiny stone cell. cut off from the outside world and denied visits, phone calls, and then either letters. and then they killed him. even after that, they abused his body and abused his mother. on the one hand, it has been shown once again that putin is capable of anything and that you cannot negotiate with him. we go back to our breaking news. we have learned that prince harry has lost his high court challenge against the decision by the uk government to withdraw routine armed police protection when he is in the uk. the duke of sussex stepped back from royal duties and left the uk in

2020, but he argued unsuccessfully that the removal of royal protection was unlawful when he was a working royal, hero was entitled to armed police protection but that entitlement ended in 2020 when the duke and duchess of sussex left the uk and moved to the united states. prince harry argued the home office has acted unlawfully after the executive committee for the protection of royalty and public figures decided that they would provide security only when assessed as being necessary on a case—by—case basis. our reporter can bring us the latest on this. shorn, welcome. this has been a long and bitterfight by who argued he needed and have the right of protection, didn't he? it is actually one of two battles he has had on the same topic. in may last year he went to the high court and said, regardless of whether or

not this decision is lawful, can he has a private individual pay for security goes met police said that the principle of somebody paying for that kind of security is wrong, but will not be acceptable to them, so what this case is about is there is this group of people, the executive committee for the protection of royalty and public figures and it does exactly what it says on the tin, really. if somebody needs protection because they are a public figure —— my public figure and there is a specific risk, they will get the petition. the difference is, prince harry did have armed metropolitan police officers and supporting officers around him everyday since he was young. i was speaking earlier one of david cameron's old protection officers who has also worked with royals in another part of the country. they were explaining this will have a dynamic effect on prince harry. he

said whatever you are, whatever the security risk there is a massive advantage to having a security detail of however many that might be, because they don'tjust look out for security, they make all the arrangements, they have everything timed so that you think of the police outrider bikes, they will walk straight through, but the bigger issues he was telling me, the bigger issues he was telling me, the bigger danger is that if you have got a police officer and they perceive a threat they can take a more proactive action than private security. so this is bad news for prince harry. behind me we have got the bbc news website, we have on the app and online all this news breaking and we will continue to bring you what we know as soon as we know it. do bring you what we know as soon as we know it. ,., ,, ., bring you what we know as soon as we know it. ,, ., . . ,, .. know it. do we know, and appreciate ou ma know it. do we know, and appreciate you may not — know it. do we know, and appreciate you may not know— know it. do we know, and appreciate you may not know the _ know it. do we know, and appreciate you may not know the answer, - know it. do we know, and appreciate i you may not know the answer, whether this is the end now for him legally or if you can challenge this further? ~ or if you can challenge this further?— or if you can challenge this further? ~ . , . ., or if you can challenge this further? ~ . , , further? well, with any court case there needs _ further? well, with any court case there needs to _ further? well, with any court case there needs to normally _

the uk whenever he is here and their argument —— prince harry's visits, if he has the aunt petition he will haveit if he has the aunt petition he will have it so it is not as if it is not available to him. what is at stake is that given who he is, his lawyers said it wasn't his fault he was born into the family and are very much as an ongoing risk. so we will keep you up—to—date but the bbc news website or the app can give you more information.— or the app can give you more information. . ,, , ., , . ~ information. thank you very much. a reminder, information. thank you very much. a reminder. to — information. thank you very much. a reminder, to head _ information. thank you very much. a reminder, to head to _ information. thank you very much. a reminder, to head to the _ information. thank you very much. a reminder, to head to the bbc - information. thank you very much. a reminder, to head to the bbc news i reminder, to head to the bbc news website where they have all the details on that breaking news story and what it means for him and what his options are going forward. you're watching bbc news. some more breaking news. the high court in belfast has ruled provisions to give suspects a conditional amnesty for crimes from the troubles is in breach of the

european convention on human rights. the conflict known as the trouble lasted almost 30 years and cost the lives of more than 3500 people. this case was brought by the victims of the conflict. we will bring you more on this breaking story as soon as it comes in. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. let's take a look at some other stories. ministers are consulting backbench tory mp5 on watering down planned protections for renters in england. the bbc has seen a series of draft government amendments to a bill which aims to ban landlords from evicting tenants without a reason. the proposed changes come from mps who had concerns about no—fault evictions and wanted to increase rights for landlords. new research suggests that mindfulness, group and cognitive behavioural therapy could effectively treat menopause symptoms such as low mood and anxiety. draft nhs guidelines recommend offering cbt alongside or instead of hrt. hrt replaces the hormones oestrogen

or progestogen or both. the researchers from university college london say offering therapy could "give gps and patients more options". and kate bush has been announced as an ambassadorfor this year's record store day — which takes place next month. kate bush, who's had something of a chart resurgance in recent years with the inclusion of her song running up that hill in the hit series stranger things, says it's a "great privilege" to support the initiative. you're live with bbc news. to gaza now, where the hamas run health ministry there has said at least 29,954 people have been killed in the palestinian territory in fighting since the 7th of october. it comes as negotiators are hoping to reach a ceasefire agreement that can be implemented before ramadan, which begins on march 10th. the draft framework would include a 40—day pause in all military operations. this comes a day after mr biden said a pause in fighting in gaza could begin early next week. but hamas has yet to respond to the deal drawn up in paris over the weekend.
