russian strikes, this one previous russian strikes, this one is just as vile. a fire rips through a block of flats in east london — the fire rigade says everyone has been accounted for. definitely maybe — rumours that oasis could be getting back together. the prince of wales has led tributes for the former england manager sven—goran eriksson, who has died at the age of 76. he'd been receiving treatment for pancreatic cancer. eriksson managed england forfive years until 2006 and led the side, to the quarter—finals at three major tournaments. he also managed 12 clubs including manchester city, going on to win 18 trophies. andy swiss looks back at his life and career. he brought a swedish cool

to english football. but behind that studious surface, sven—goran eriksson�*s reign was anything but dull. he had made his managerial name first with gothenburg, and then with the italian side lazio, but when england appointed him as kevin keegan�*s replacement in 2000, it sparked a storm of controversy. england had never had a foreign coach before. but if the traditionalists were upset, eriksson was unflappable. if it's the most difficult job, i'm very happy. then it will be my biggest challenge so far in my life. and he soon silenced his critics on a famous night in munich. john motson: oh, this is getting better and better and better! - a 5—1 thrashing of germany, and suddenly eriksson seemed england's saviour. they qualified for the 2002 world cup in dramatic fashion. beckham! yes! he's done it! the feelgood factor was back, and eriksson was the architect.

but qualification was followed by frustration. england were beaten in the quarterfinals by brazil, and his passive management style was under scrutiny. come the 2004 euros, it was the same story. 0h, he's put it miles over the bar. as england again went out in the quarterfinals, the questions began to mount. by now, eriksson�*s private life was attracting headlines. his relationships with the italian lawyer nancy dallaglio, with the tv star ulrika johnsson, and with faria alam, an fa employee, which prompted turmoil at the organisation. and after he told an undercover reporter he would consider quitting after the 2006 world cup, the fa announced he would leave following the tournament. england went into it with high hopes, their team dubbed the "golden generation". but yet again, they crashed out

in the quarterfinals, yet again, on penalties. eriksson later said it was the biggest disappointment of his career. i don't think england was ready to win a world cup in 2002. 2006? yes. england should have done better. and if you take all the defeats i had in my life, that was the hardest one. after leaving the england job, eriksson spent a year at manchester city, followed by a string of other clubs, including notts county. his profile meant he was never short of offers. but it is as england's groundbreaking boss that he will be best remembered — the man behind one of english football's most eventful eras. sven goran eriksson, who's died at the age of 76.

there have been tributes from the football community, politicians and royalty. and one of his former clubs in italy, lazio:

earlier i spoke to sports journalist henry winter, who gave me his reaction to the news. a sad day, i was fortunate to cover all the games they played under him. amazing, the football man. the 5—1 in munich, li—2 against croatia at euro 200a. england could have won under him if rooney hadn't got injured in the quarter. beckham's free kick against greece at old trafford in 2002 to get england to the world cup. david beckham redemption against argentina and sapporo in 2002. some really good games, probably underachieved slightly given the quality of the players, wayne rooney, ashley cole, frank lampard, john terry,

players like that, but as a man my thoughts go out to his family. an incredibly proud father. phlegmatic man. given what we in the press throughout him during the five years. he had his phone hacked. bus £10 million to a financial adviser who wasn't particularly adept at finance or advising. he dealt with it. let's whizz through a few more of those areas in detail. a quiet, understated style of management, what were his particular qualities? he protected the players. when he left england in 2006 after they got knocked out in the quarterfinal, he was strong with us in the written media.

he said look after wayne rooney, who got sent off, do not kill him, he is your future. quite strong words to use, we had been critical of him for the red card. good at protecting players. david beckham, always supporting his players. england went on strike at one point and eriksson came out on their side. to the fa's anguish. provided a window into english society and the fact that when he had relationships, with unmarried women, fleet street went into meltdown. nuts magazine delivering a water bed to the fa's hq in soho square at the time, fa officials wandering in and out, bemused by this. he added to the fun around england.

really dignified in this past year, open about what he was facing, interesting, some of the choices of words he shared with people in his final days and weeks. going back to the manager of those players, we heard in the piece him saying there was a chance he thought they should have done better in 2006. why didn't he get the best out of the golden generation? the balance of the team wasn't quite right. gareth southgate got the players practising penalties, made it more of a science. a bit unsporting to practice things like penalties previously, sven admitted that, why he didn't work on penalties, the psychology of

players, he also said he should have taken a psychologist to some of those tournaments. henry winter. you can follow everything live on this story on the bbc sport website and app. thoughts and memories of sven—goran eriksson, who has died at the age of 76. to ukraine next — where russia has carried out a massive aerial assault. president zelensky said it was one of the largest attacks on the country and involved more than 100 missiles and around 100 drones. at least six people have been killed. these pictures show what seems to be a missile crashing into a reservoir near the capital kyiv. explosions were heard in several other towns and cities across the country. this is dnipro — where the local authorities says at least one

civilian lost their life. and a ukrainian farmer died in an air strike in the southern zaporizhzhia region. hundreds of people in kyiv sheltered in the subway after alerts were sounded. russia says energy sites were the focus and news agencies are reporting that all targets were hit. ukraine says it shot down about 15 missiles and 15 drones that were aimed at kyiv. here's some of what president zelensky said following the attack. translation: this was one of- the largest strikes, a combined one. more than 100 missiles of various types, and about 100 shahed drones, and, like most previous russian strikes, this one is just as vile, targeting critical civilian infrastructure, in most of this our regions, from kharkiv, and kyiv, to 0desa, and more western regions. unfortunately, there are casualties. kira rudik is a ukrainian mp. she gave me her reaction

to what ukraine has experienced in the past 2a hours. after 2.5 years of full scale invasion, you might think that you get used to the air raid siren and the explosions, the constant threat. but the truth is, you are not. no normal person can get used to that. today was extremely terrible and terrifying because we know that russians are targeting our energy infrastructure. they are trying to make sure that there will be an outage for winter, using cold and darkness as a weapon, something they tried to do the previous years. unfortunately this year they were more successful and there were outages throughout after the beginning of the attack. so the air raid siren was for more than seven hours in kyiv.

spending more than seven hours sheltering in the bomb shelters with the families. it was terrifying, of course, the results of the attack are also terrible, basically bringing us one step closer to total outage. it is absolutely frustrating that 2.5 years into the full—scale invasion russia is still able to bypass actions, manufacture or buy missiles and drones from its allies, it is outrageous. calling on allies. to be able to protect the remainders of our energy system and to look into how is it possible that still russia is able to manufacture weapons. one of the things

president zelensky has been saying, the rules have to change about the western weapon supply to ukraine and where they are i like to use them, he wants to use long—range weapons inside russia. any sense of a change on that from the west? we started from the moment when we were not allowed to do anything 2.5 years ago, we know how to work with the answer no. but we really terribly need this decision to happen right now and to allow us to use wide—range missiles on russian territory because this is the only chance to take down planes before they launch their weapons, take down the systems of the drones before they are on our territory and that is harder to do that. it is a matter for us of survival and we are calling to say we can't maybe get all the range of weapons that we need but allow us to defend

ourselves at this terrifying time. kira rudik. let's speak to our diplomatic correspondent, paul adams. is your assessment of the attacks? no one is suggesting serious damage at this time but part of a serious pattern, back in march when we saw the last big assault on ukrainian energy infrastructure, the situation which will be dire with huge proportions of the country's thermal and hydroelectric power generation knocked out of action. this is not like the way it was two winters ago when essentially the russians were targeting the energy grid but not so much the power generating facilities themselves. 0nce much the power generating facilities themselves. once you knock out a power station, that takes years to repair if it can be repaired at all. now the country is limping along on

a handful of its remaining power generating facilities. 0ne a handful of its remaining power generating facilities. one of those comedy hydroelectric plant north of kyiv, was it seems one of the targets today. part of a consistent pattern which frankly has been going on since the start of the war, to steadily degrade ukraine of its energy infrastructure and force ukrainians to live through yet another miserable winter the hope that that breaks the morale of the country. that that breaks the morale of the count . , . ., ., that that breaks the morale of the count . , . . ., .,, that that breaks the morale of the count . ,~ . ., country. very clear that as continue ofthe country. very clear that as continue of the moscow's _ country. very clear that as continue of the moscow's strategy. - country. very clear that as continue of the moscow's strategy. in - country. very clear that as continue of the moscow's strategy. in terms| of the moscow's strategy. in terms of the moscow's strategy. in terms of kyiv�*s strategy given what we have seen, your assessment of how they respond to this will sell many other moving pieces on the battlefield. i other moving pieces on the battlefield.— other moving pieces on the battlefield. ~ ., _ battlefield. i think this obviously is et battlefield. i think this obviously is yet another _ battlefield. i think this obviously is yet another moment - battlefield. i think this obviously is yet another moment as - battlefield. i think this obviously is yet another moment as you i battlefield. i think this obviously - is yet another moment as you heard, the appeal to use western spy equipment well beyond the borders of

ukraine, deep into russia at the very places these attacks are launched. when you are in kyiv, you have access to all of the alert systems and messages telling you a plane is taking off deep inside russia designed to target the infrastructure of ukraine. but ukraine is not currently able to deal with those threats at source. the other thing, perhaps this is the area where the west might be more amenable to a more short—term solution, is to make sure there is remaining power generating facilities, really only a handful of them, are properly defended with the air defence missiles. the ukrainians have had to use huge quantities, their own stocks and western supplied equipment, to protect their stocks. there is only so much they can do. if they can properly defend

those power plants at which they can weather the storm this coming winter, everyone anticipating this is going to be possibly the hardest to sell for. ., ., to sell for. referring that, a critical few _ to sell for. referring that, a critical few months - to sell for. referring that, a critical few months ahead, i to sell for. referring that, a - critical few months ahead, winter coming up, the kursk operation and an american election coming. mi an american election coming. all sorts of an american election coming. fill sorts of anxiety surrounding that for very obvious reasons. a sense of pessimism and a sense this war is grinding on without any obvious sign of an improvement, putting aside of course the effect of the kursk operation, i think there is a feeling there are difficult times ahead, the west needs to be reminded of the fight, from a public relations point of view the operation in kursk might have reminded people in the west, particularly the us, ukraine is capable of winning if given

resources to win. maybe there is some optimism currently run the opinion polls putting harris ahead of donald trump in the key swing states in the united states. obviously some way off and both in terms of the ukrainian military and those involved in the infrastructure of energy, they have a lot to do. paul adams. we're following this story as it unfolds. head to the bbc news website and app to follow the live page, with all the latest updates from kyiv and across ukraine. a special report from the democratic republic of the congo on the outbreak of mpox. you are watching bbc news.

you are watching bbc news. everyone has been accounted for after a major fire at an east london block of flats. two people were taken to hospital and more than 100 people evacuated. the cause of the fire is not yet known but the london fire commissioner said the building had several known fire safety issues. helena wilkinson reports. this is the block of flats in east london, engulfed by flames at the peak of the devastating fire. more than 100 residents live here — most will have been asleep when it broke out. it must have been terrifying. the london fire brigade was called at 2:1i1i this morning. a major incident was declared, with a huge emergency response. 45 fire engines were sent, with 225 firefighters. the first of them were at the scene

within five minutes of the call. residents have been describing the terrifying moment of what happened in the block of flats in the early hours of this morning. one woman, who is six months pregnant, has told us that as they were making their way down the stairs, the smoke became heavier, and everyone was coughing. she also said there was no warning and no fire alarm. other residents spoke of the terrifying situation. there was a lot of smoke, we couldn't breathe, and we managed to reach downstairs and then we went in the hall, there was a firefighter and they said, just run across the other side of the building, basically. there was no alarm, - we didn't hear any alarm. there is no sprinklersj in that building at all. there was in the corridor to warn us or even say there was a fire. - the cause of the fire is not yet known. work had been under way to remove non—compliant cladding on the flats, and there were already issues known to authorities. not far from the flats, a rest centre has been set up for residents unable to return to their homes.

an extensive search and rescue operation took place following a simultaneous evacuation of the building, and i'm pleased to announce that everyone has been accounted for. this was a very dynamic and challenging incident, and we all know undoubtedly there will be concerns around the fire safety issues present within the building, which will form part of our report. back at the scene, firefighters are still trying to contain the smoke billowing out. long ladders are being used to pour water on top of the building. locals have been told to keep their windows closed. the investigation into how the fire started will be the next step. what's extraordinary is that there weren't more people injured. helena wilkinson. health workers in the democratic republic of congo

have told the bbc more than 70% of people being treated for mpox at their clinics are children under the age of 10. the bbc has been given exclusive access to two treatment centres in the eastern part of the country — the centre of the latest mpox outbreak. our africa correspondent simijola—oso has this report, filmed inside the drc for the bbc by a local camera operator. a warning, viewers may find some images distressing from the start. toddler cries. weary and in pain. two—year—old encima caught mpox from one of her five siblings, who have all had the disease. translation: this is - the first time i've seen it. when my child got sick, other parents told me it might be measles, but we started treating measles and failed. this hospital in kavumu is in south kivu, the epicentre of this new mpox crisis. it has had 800 patients sincejune. more than 70% have been children. eight have died —

all under the age of five. about 100 miles away, the spring in amani's step slowly returns after four days of free treatment at this centre in munigi neargoma. like the hospital, three—quarters of patients here have been under the age of ten. the idp camps are overcrowded, so you see children in idp camps, they are always playing together, so they have time together. they don't really care about distance, social distance, they don't care about that. so they play together. they are always together. and you can also see like in the household, they even pass the night on the same bed. you can find three, four, five children. so that means the transmission is really present on a daily basis.

these camps, in the eastern part of the democratic republic of congo, are crammed with millions who have been displaced because of an ongoing armed conflict — the perfect place for mpox to run rampant. charity workers are trying to get ahead by teaching people about symptoms, stigma and hygiene. simijolaoso, bbc news. stay with us here on bbc news. the latest from the middle east, and the paralympics and the business news. for most of us it is a better day today. all that rain that we had yesterday across the northern half of the uk has moved away. there is more cloud tending to come in from the atlantic and, eventually, that will bring some more rain. we may see the cloud increasing across some western areas, but ahead of that it has been a very pleasant bank holiday monday here in warwickshire with some sunshine.

these are the temperatures that we're seeing late on in the afternoon, so a little bit warmer than it has been through the weekend. nothing startling, but somewhat of an improvement. as we head overnight the winds are going to start to pick up and we start to see some rain coming into northern ireland, heading further into scotland, and perhaps over the irish sea, as well. for large parts of england and wales it will be dry with some clearer skies. quite a warm night, particularly so where we've got that wetter, windier weather in northern ireland. that should move away, though, fairly quickly on tuesday and we'll follow that with some sunshine. some heavier rain over dumfries and galloway for a while, but the rain does tend to ease away for most of scotland because it stumbles slowly into northern england, into wales and the south—west. the midlands and a good part of eastern england are likely to be dry and there will be some sunshine here. it's starting to get a bit warmer, as well. those temperatures reaching 2a or 25 degrees ahead of the rain, which is coming in on that weather front there and because that weather front is so slow as we move into wednesday, temperatures ahead of it

will continue to rise. following on from that weather front, we've got lower pressure in the north—west. that will bring some showers on wednesday into northern ireland and particularly scotland, with some heavier, thundery ones in the west. there's the weather front. you can see there's not much rain on it, but it's not really moved very far at all. so the east midlands, lincolnshire, east anglia and the south—east continuing to warm up. temperatures reaching 27, maybe 28 degrees. that's going to be the peak of the heat, mind you, because eventually the weather front is going to move its way eastwards. in the south, there's little or no rain and not much rain further north, as well. once that clears through, we're all going to have a run of westerly winds and that's going to bring with it some cooler and fresher air. temperatures are going to be lower later on in the week. we are going to find on thursday some showers for northernmost parts of the uk, but even these move away on friday and in the sunshine further south it will still feel quite pleasant.
