on his eventual retirement. he says finishing a wimbledon or paris olympics would be fitting. good evening. england passed their first test at the euros in germany with a win against serbia. the only goal, from jude bellingham, reflected a strong england performance in the first half, but the going got tougher in the second half. let's cross straight to our sports editor dan roan, who is in gelsenkirchen for us now. it is interesting, in the build—up to this tournament, gareth southgate, ahead of his fourth and possibly final final is in charge, had warned england's fans this would not be easy against a dangerous —looking serbian side, and so it proved. # sweet caroline...# lunchtime in gelsenkirchen and england fans already making themselves heard as they flocked, full of euros confidence.

we are going to win it. it's coming home, it has to be our year, this year. we say it every time! we're just really excited to be here. can't wait, can't wait to get in that ground. it's our time, it's our time. it's coming home! - among the chants was one reference in germany's wartime past which the authorities have urged fans not to sing. later, more unsavoury scenes ahead of a match deemed high risk by authorities. following reports of scuffles, the local police saying there'd been an altercation between fans from england and serbia in the city, with seven serbians arrested. but for most supporters, the mood was one of excitement about a team seen by many as tournament favourites. here in germany's industrial heartland, the real work about to begin, for england to prove they could finally deliver. among the host of world—class stars that england now possess, none shines brighter than jude bellingham. england's opener,

england's golden boy. and after a stellar season with real madrid, the 20—year—old carried on where he left off, providing england with the perfect start. the manager, unable to contain his excitement. england seemed in control but serbia have threats of their own. aleksandar mitrovic proved a handful during his time in the premier league, and the striker almost got the better of the english defence. and, with half—time approaching, the serbians again posed a danger, through sasa lukic�*s cross. john stones doing just enough to keep england ahead. much had been made of the decision to play defender trent alexander—arnold in the centre of midfield. the liverpool man tested the serbian keeper from distance. but the underdogs were growing into the match. england, living dangerously. the favourites were struggling for momentum. the manager turned to jarrod bowen, who quickly made an impression, crossing perfectly for harry kane. and it's off the bar. but the captain, who'd had a subdued performance, was denied brilliantly by predrag rajkovic.

serbia may be ranked 33rd in the world, but here they were matching a lacklustre england. oh, great save, jordan pickford. dusan vlahovic�*s fierce shot, forcing jordan pickford into action. but england held on. we knew it was going to be a tight game. i know there's been a lot of goals in the other games but i think we try to keep to our own standards and play the opposition that's in front of us and not the theme of the tournament, if you like. so, important we got off to a good start. yeah, so, positive inside the camp and on to the next one. they may have had a winning start to their campaign here, and with sterner tests ahead, they'll need to improve if they're tojustify their billing as genuine contenders. dan roan, bbc news, gelsenkirchen. the match was watched by millions of fans across england. our correspondent danjohnson has spent the evening with supporters at a pub in leeds. come on, england! so, there we are. england are under way.

hundreds of people here at this pub in leeds. mick and andy, what do you reckon? are you confident? confident, very confident. absolutely. 3—0 tonight. and i think we are going all the way. come on, england! we are going to win. come on, england! i'm going to say 3—1, to england. confident? very confident. and how far are they going to go in the tournament? | they're going to go to the finals, | because they're bringing it home. and they didn't have long to wait. cheering. half—time, england are in the lead. what do you reckon, joe? 3—0, still saying 3—0. pleased with the performance? bellingham masterclass. i was expecting us to pass it around the halfway line while they defend with ten men but they came out and made a game of it, to be fairto them. yeah, good start. but it turned a bit damp in the second half. harry kane's first

chance of the match. this was the nearest anybody got. that's full—time, now. let's find out what the west yorkshire whippets women's football team made at that england performance. what do you reckon? impressed? hat performance. what do you reckon? impressed?— performance. what do you reckon? impressed? not really, i think after the lost impressed? not really, i think after they lost to — impressed? not really, i think after they lost to iceland _ impressed? not really, i think after they lost to iceland on _ impressed? not really, i think after they lost to iceland on friday, - impressed? not really, i think after they lost to iceland on friday, we . they lost to iceland on friday, we needed a big result and i don't think that was really what we wanted. , . , think that was really what we wanted. ,. , ., , wanted. gareth will be a bit disappointed _ wanted. gareth will be a bit disappointed but _ wanted. gareth will be a bit disappointed but i - wanted. gareth will be a bit disappointed but i think- wanted. gareth will be a bit disappointed but i think we| wanted. gareth will be a bit - disappointed but i think we have got some _ disappointed but i think we have got some great players that we did not see tonight. we have got potential. confident_ see tonight. we have got potential. confident for the tournament now, having seen that? sex, confident for the tournament now, having seen that?— confident for the tournament now, having seen that? a bit wobbly but i think that we _ having seen that? a bit wobbly but i think that we can _ having seen that? a bit wobbly but i think that we can still— having seen that? a bit wobbly but i think that we can still win. - having seen that? a bit wobbly but i think that we can still win. nice - think that we can still win. nice one, think that we can still win. nice one. good _ think that we can still win. nice one. good to — think that we can still win. nice one, good to talk _ think that we can still win. nice one, good to talk to _ think that we can still win. nice one, good to talk to you, - think that we can still win. nice one, good to talk to you, thank you. it is all eyes on denmark on thursday. danjohnson, bbc news, leeds. and we can go back to dan roan in gelsenkirchen. so some cautious optimism from the fans. how is england's when being

assessed? it wasn't pretty but it was enough, they ground out a crucial win, it is important to get off to a winning start and it is the kind of game that perhaps before southgate england may have drawn or even lost. it is the fourth time in his four major tournaments that england have won the crucial opening game. they will hope they can grow into it. it was a strange performance, the first half, england were really good, the first half hour in particular, bellingham majestic, as we have heard and a lot of attention will be on him and bukayo saka very dangerous as well but after the restart, serbia were much more energetic and got into it and i think it will worry england is that they looked a bit leggy at times. there will be a debate about whether the team is balanced with alexander arnold in midfield but southgate will look at that and be glad to have got off to a winning start. he has been speaking to us in the last few moments. we obviously had good chances to extend the lead and to kill the game which we didn't manage to take.

i was really pleased with a lot of the play, especially the first half. i think we used the ball really well. second half, we didn't keep it quite as well as we need to. but to get the win and the start we have is really important. gareth southgate speaking there. the good news for him is that england topped their group and they will be through to the second round if they beat denmark in frankfurt on thursday. so far, so good for them. the performance needs to improve but will this be a performance that sends fear into the hearts of the likes of france or germany or spain? not at this stage. dan, many thanks. in today's other matches, the netherlands scored a late winner to beat poland 2—1. and it was a special night for denmark's christian eriksen. he scored on his first euros appearance since suffering a cardiac arrest during a game at the tournament three years ago. his side drew 1—1 with slovenia and will next play england on thursday. president zelensky has said ukraine would hold peace talks with russia

tomorrow if moscow's troops left his country. but he said vladimir putin would not end the war, and had to be stopped in any way possible. he was speaking at the end of a conference in switzerland in which delegates from around 90 countries discussed proposals for peace. but some key countries that have maintained relations with moscow didn't sign the final communique. our eastern europe correspondent, sarah rainsford, reports. it was to this swiss mountain retreat that politicians came this weekend to talk peace. to discuss ending the biggest conflict in europe since the second world war. thank you very much. what they achieved was a joint declaration, affirming ukraine's right not to be invaded. but some, including saudi arabia and india, didn't sign up. volodymyr zelensky is still hailing a great success, arguing the world must meet russia's full—scale invasion with full—scale diplomacy. are you worried that

international support for ukraine on the battlefield, to win this on the battlefield, is weakening and that's why you're talking peace? translation: it is not because we are weakerj that we are talking about peace. we've always called for peace. at the peak of war, we were talking about peace. we wanted the world to pressure russia to end this war, and to stop killing us. but ukraine's forces are under pressure on the battlefield. and ahead of this summit, vladimir putin issued his own peace proposal, that was in fact a call for capitulation. instead, kyiv is trying to seize the initiative. the talks here focused on the easier issues to agree on, like the need to return soldiers and civilians from russian captivity. i was beaten and tortured every day, twice. maksim was held for 11 months,

but he told me the attempt to hammer out a peace plan now is not about abandoning the fight. we have enough people, we have enough will, we have enough brave to fight. we just need weapons. ukraine didn't get the unreserved support here it was hoping for. but it did get the chance to stress its key message. that russia only understands strength on the battlefield or in diplomacy. sarah rainsford, bbc news, lake lucerne. the battle between labour and the snp for votes in scotland is at its fiercest in glasgow. for half a century, labour routinely won dozens of scottish seats in the mainly working—class, industrial central belt. but that all changed a decade ago with a surge in support for the snp. now, though, polls suggest a labour revival may be on the cards. in the first of several reports across the country during this campaign,

our scotland editorjames cook has been speaking to voters in glasgow. come with me on a journey through a changing city. glasgow was a labour stronghold for more than half a century, but a decade ago, there was a dramatic shift. the scottish national party surged and so did support for independence. this was a labour city for years, glasgow. oh, staunch. and you would have been a labour man? obviously. my dad was a labour man and his dad was a labour man but what they've done is, they've changed their values. and just now, if you're voting for labour, or you're voting for tory, there's no difference. as far as i'm concerned. so you're going to vote snp? without a doubt because i'm scottish and i think it's the only way forward. and i want the best future for my kids. but are those views typical at this election? labour hopes not as it tries to win back all six seats in the city. i've had to pick who i think is the most honest one out of the lot. i get the impression keir starmer is more genuine.

but i would vote labour anyway. but again, they're saying they might put taxes up and all that but i think the country's got the problems regardless of who's in government. it's always been bad. i there's still a lot of things that i are expensive but now it's got ten times worse, and you look. on the shelves and you see. these food banks, i've never seen so many food banks in my life. - what are you thinking about this election? it's a bit of a riot, so it is. i think the conservatives don't really care much about scotland. neither does labour. don't think the snp has scotland's best interests at heart but it's the best out of a bad bunch, right now. so you're going to stick with the snp? yeah, unfortunately. but i'd better go. is this your stop? yeah. thank you so much. have a nice day. i've been on the number 6! for a good couple of hours, now, and all along the route, the same concerns are coming up, about the cost of living,

about the health service, about immigration and also about the state of the city. if i had to sum up the mood, i'd say that people are pretty frustrated and unhappy about the way things are going locally and nationally. you can sense that frustration all over glasgow, including here in the cosmopolitan cafes is of the south side. what are you thinking? are you excited about this general election? i'm definitely excited to see the back of the tories. still debating on who to vote for but yeah, excited that hopefully it goes the right way. i decided to change my allegiance to snp for a short time. i really liked nicola sturgeon, a very good leader. but with all that's gone on recently, i'm not very happy with the snp so i'm now reverting to labour. i think the snp are a wee bit. of a disaster, just now, sadly. i don't think it's time - for independence just yet. we've got so much, too many other things to solve. - but do you think scotland should be independent eventually? yes, i do. . i'd like that.

polls suggest plenty of scots share that view. whether or not labour wins this city, the debate about independence isn't over. james cook, bbc news, glasgow. and you can see a full list of candidates for all the glasgow constituencies on the bbc news website. and we're now halfway through the election campaign and most of the main parties' manifestos are out, telling us their plans should they win power. i'm joined by our political correspondent harry farley. what's your sense of what the second half of the campaign may look like? we are at a really interesting junction tonight. as you say, most of the parties have released their manifestos and we are expecting nigel farage to launch reform uk's tomorrow. tonight one of their candidate has resigned after it emerged he had previously urged people to vote for the bnp, grant sinclair armstrong, who was standing in north—west essex, kemi badenoch's

constituency, said he regretted those comments and they were posted online between 2004—2007, that he never supported the bnp but he had been forced by the party to step down. if we step back and look more broadly at the state of the campaign, labourfocusing this broadly at the state of the campaign, labour focusing this week on economic policies, rachel reeves, the shadow chancellor, setting targets tomorrow for how much business investment she hopes to unlock. from the conservatives we have seen this interesting shift. in the opening weeks of the campaign, we had a policy blitz, announcement after announcement. none of them seemed to materially shift to the polls and the deficit they face in the polls. theirfocus now is changing to attacking labour, particularly on tax. tomorrow, they will argue that by not allowing new oil and gas licenses, labour would reduce tax revenues. labour say that is rubbish and the windfall tax on oil and gas would raise billions but that slanging match gives you a picture of what we can expect in the weeks to come i think. fiank

picture of what we can expect in the weeks to come i think.— picture of what we can expect in the weeks to come i think. sank back -- thank you- — and a list of all candidates standing in the north west essex constituency can be found on the bbc news website. a surrey police officer who deliberately rammed a runaway cow with their police car has been removed from front—line duties, while an investigation takes place. officers said they had been acting to protect public safety. but the owner of the cow said what happened was "horrific." simonjones reports. on the run, but the journey made by the young cow, called beau lucy, is about to come to an abrupt end. police say they'd been trying to capture her for several hours after she'd been running at members of the public. what happened next has been described by the rspca as distressing. the cow is deliberately hit at speed by a police car. as she attempts to get up, she's hit again. i'm thinking, why is there a cow at the top of my road? so, as i come out, i've seen the police car come. he's rammed it and then it's got up, carried on running again and he's rammed it again. i think it could have been dealt with a lot more humanely. i think it was quite

distressing for everyone. the cow was being kept on staines moor. from there, she was first reported to the police to be on the loose on friday night in the nearby town. she ran for several miles before being struck in raleigh road in feltham. what happened on this road is now under investigation. police say they were unable to contact any vets on the night. the driver of the police car has been removed from front—line duties while investigations take place. the cow's owner, rob, who didn't want to give his surname, said, "i think the video speaks for itself. it was quite horrific. the method of dealing with the situation was incorrect." after being hit, beau lucy managed to get back on her feet, and she is now recuperating back at her farm. simon jones, bbc news. israel has announced what it calls a daily "tactical pause" in military activity in one part of southern gaza to let more aid in. the suspension will not apply to rafah, which is the scene

of intense fighting. israeli military operations are being halted between 8am and 7pm every day along the road that leads from the kerem shalom crossing to the main salah al—din highway, which extends north through the territory. our middle east correspondent lucy williamson reports. in gaza, they stood to pray in places with little else left standing. the festival after eid al—adha, another milestone in this war. those for whom both conflict and celebration are new. those who have lived through them many times before. translation: for all muslims, eid means sacrificing animals, l to shed blood, but this eid, there are no sacrificed animals. now we sacrifice ourselves. we sacrifice our own bodies. agencies warn that a lack of aid is causing acute malnutrition in gaza. today, confusion over a limited daily truce announced by the army

along a key aid route. it sparked fury from israel's far—right ministers, and a rapid army response to say the fighting in gaza wouldn't stop. but the costs of this war are also pressing on israel's prime minister. 11 soldiers killed in gaza yesterday. his instruction to dismantle the hamas army has left his soldiers still facing a guerrilla war. translation: when the price is so heavy, we will remember what we are fighting for. we are fighting to ensure our existence and our future. we are fighting to return all our hostages. mr netanyahu's room for manoeuvre on gaza is narrowing. protesters last night called again for an end to the war. but ending it now probably means an end to his government. and the rhetoric over gaza is straining to mask the reality of his choices.

caught between his promise of total victory and the prospect of a forever war. lucy williamson, bbc news, jerusalem. in tennis, emma raducanu has turned down the chance to play for great britain at this summer's olympics. the former us open champion, who lost today to fellow brit katie boulter in the semifinal of the nottingham open, says she needs to "prioritise her body" to stay fit after a number of injuries. but it could be the final tournament for two—time gold medallist andy murray, who says it would be a "fitting" place for him to retire. probably if i was going to finish my career, i would ratherfinish, you know, at wimbledon or at the olympic games. to me, it would probably be more fitting. like i said, i have had amazing experiences and memories from wimbledon but also, you know, being part

of british olympic teams. yeah, to get the chance to be involved in a fifth one, you know, is a reason to stay motivated and continue playing. a father's day tribute to prince william, featuring a picture of him in norfolk with his three children, has been posted on social media. it includes a public message from prince george, princess charlotte and prince louis saying, "we love you, papa", on the accounts for the prince and princess of wales. prince william also posted his own message to the king, with a picture of them both. time for a look at the weather. here's helen willetts. thank you very much indeed. it has been a day of contrast. this was argyll and bute earlier in the afternoon, cloud looking heavy. no surprise it has been raining quite steadily in the north, just 12 degrees but at 22 celsius, the

average temperature for the time of year, it has been the warmest for about 12 days where the sun came out. that rain still with us in the north and it is sinking its way south. it will gradually weaken that band of rain. to the north of it, telling quite chilly and the clearing skies and to the south as well, i would clearing skies and to the south as well, iwould imagine clearing skies and to the south as well, i would imagine a touch chilly faugheen with some mist around and certainly underneath that band of cloud, hill fog as well where temperatures remain at double figures. for many away from the band of rain and cloud it is going to be a cool but bright and sunny start tomorrow. we will always keep quite a bit of doubt and a scattering of showers coming on that northerly breeze for both scotland and northern ireland. to the south, starting with some sunshine. but this band of cloud and increasingly fragmented when will be the focal point for some showers, some heavy showers in central and eastern areas but good spells of sunshine in between as well. between 19—22 from north to south, about average, so a lot warmer for north to south, about average, so a lot warmerfor some parts north to south, about average, so a lot warmer for some parts of scotland and northern ireland compared to today. the drier weather prevails this week, a ridge of high

pressure keeping weather fronts to the south at bay and also to the north. these will creep in at times with some clout and rain. but for most of us, tuesday, a bit chillier with a northerly across scotland and some showers but a lot of dry and bright weather. look at the rain, possibly pushing into the south and east but compared with what we have had, again with sunshine around, temperatures getting to the average. as i say, a lot of dry weather on the cards this week. not altogether dry, i can't promise that but it should feel warmer with some strong june sunshine. at last! thanks, helen. and that's bbc news at ten. let's take a quick look at what's making the headlines in some of the first editions of monday's papers. we start with the financial times — which has an interview with shadow chancellor — rachel reeves. the paper says she's pledged to tear down trade barriers between britain and the european union —

if labour takes office — and that parts of the uk brexit deal will be revisited. staying with the ft — which says global defence companies are recruiting workers at the fastest rate since the end of the cold war. governments around the world have ramped up military spending since russia's full—scale invasion of ukraine. turning to the eye — and its reporting that labour has been accused of watering down its promise to reform housing laws. the paper says the party is rowing back from pledges to protect renters and boost home ownership. the metro has a striking image on its front cover — related to a story we've been covering here on bbc news — the man carrying a pick—axe who was shot by police near a football fan—zone in germany. the guardian says labour leader —

sir keir starmer — is under renewed pressure to scrap the two—child limit on benefits. and you can also see a picture ofjude bellingham — who scored the only goal in england's 1—0 win over serbia in euro 202a. that victory also makes the front cover of the daily mail. it was a nerve jangler — the paper says — but england finally gave us all something to cheer about. let's return to the general election campaign and, our pollsterjohn curtice tells us in 60 seconds how the overall picture is looking for the main parties on the polls. one poll this week stole the headlines. a yougov poll put reform one point ahead of the conservatives. but no other poll reported the same finding, though every poll has reported a fall in the conservative support and nearly all, a narrowing of the conservative lead over reform. so what last week was an average eight point conservative lead over reform has now halved

to just four points. and standing atjust 20%, conservative support is now at its lowest ever in british polling history. mr sunak, whose own personal ratings have clearly fallen, must be beginning to doubt his decision to call the election early. not that labour have had it their own way. like the conservatives, their support is also down by two points. labour are being challenged by the greens, still on 6%, and the liberal democrats, whose vote, up in every poll this week, now stands at i2%. lots more on our website. tv chef gordon ramsay says he is lucky to be alive after an accident riding his bike in the us. he warned his followers on social media always to wear a helmet after the incident in connecticut this week — and he revealed the large bruise on his midriff.

i want to wish you all very happy father's day. but please, please, please, please, please, wear a helmet because if i didn't, honestly, i wouldn't be here now. good advice. for me and the team here on bbc news, thank you for watching, goodbye.
