here's matt taylor. good evening. we had the best of the sometime today across southern areas. in cambridgeshire earlier on you can see. weather there was some time or not, a pretty chilly breeze blowing and that will be a key feature for the rest of the week. it will eventually bring something a bit milder but plenty more cloud and some rain at times, many in western areas. that shows up on a rainfall forecast chart for the week. developing across the west, eastern areas all that bit dry and that's because we've got atlantic weather systems trying to me then but they are meeting an area of high pressure which tonight isjust are meeting an area of high pressure which tonight is just to the east of us. as they close in, the winds strengthen and it will be a windy night tonight and last night. not strong enough to stop the frost from forming. there will be various areas of cloud pushing north. temperatures may fluctuate. sadly for scotland, england and wales, a good chance of

a frost. maybe the odd shower but the breeze is too strong and there will be a bit of cloud as well. for most of you, you start tomorrow with plenty of sunshine, clouding over three in south—west wales and northern ireland through the morning into the afternoon with outbreaks of rain developing. some of the wettest spots in northern ireland and then later western scotland. across the west, the wind will be at the strongest, gusting may be 50 mph. a windy day across the border, even though temperatures up a bit on those values, factor in that wind. lots of sunshine to end the day in the east. in the evening, cloud and outbreaks of rain moving north, not much rain in the east and another dry day for many here as we go through into wednesday. next weather system moving on, what a day for northern ireland and parts of scotland. that rain eventually into wales and west of england later on. a good part of england staying dry on wednesday. temperatures continue to climb. itis winds on thursday, more rain back on friday.

a reminder of our top story. ukraine says russia has continued to shell a number of cities, preventing the safe evacuation of the civilian population.

one have many people have left ukraine, more than a million are now in poland. hungary and slovakia have received thousands of refugees. in the western city. i'm here at this art centre atjust 12 days ago, it was used for

cultural events and now it is home to the thousands of people who were coming to western ukraine looking for relative safety, relative peace, away from the fighting in the northeast and south of the country. you can see just behind northeast and south of the country. you can seejust behind me northeast and south of the country. you can see just behind me some of the elderly people who have fled their homes, flip the bombings, the shillings, the fighting that took place, many of them are staying in underground bunkers in food, water, heating. freezing conditions here in ukraine and these people were suffering in the try to get away and frankly, they are the lucky ones and some the others were trapped looking for some kind of humanitarian corridors to be created. the other room, newborn babies, small children whose parents are completely traumatised by what they heard and what they witnessed. and now, they're trying to get other countries on the borders. they're trying to get away, they don't know when they'll be able to come back,

if the be able to come back and what kind of country will come back to. and the lithuanian capital, she is recording a special edition of questions and the invasion in ukraine. yes, you find me here and i have been very struck by the fact that people, one of the three republics are showing a great deal of solidarity for the plight of the people of ukraine. shop windows with the colours of the ukrainian flags, use the symbols of the heart and ukraine written off of it and ukrainian flag flying alongside the lithuanian one on government buildings. the secretary of state as part of his reassurance to her in some european countries is been in lithuania holding talks with the government and i'm joined now by the deputy foreign minister of

lithuania. the foreign minister was part of the talks today with antony blinken, how should a review of his comments of how much protection nato is giving republics such as yours. you feel quite vulnerable. we are discussin: you feel quite vulnerable. we are discussing very — you feel quite vulnerable. we are discussing very hard _ you feel quite vulnerable. we are discussing very hard matters - you feel quite vulnerable. we are discussing very hard matters of l discussing very hard matters of defence, how to trust standing defence, how to trust standing defence from nato, to actually have capabilities to defend the territory to translate this aspiration at the very concrete capabilities, resources, actions, manpower and weapons. we are also discussing the needs to move on sanctions for russia to help ukraine and we need to do it rapidly and talk about oil and gas embargo. and the banking sector to make it really hurt that

is the only way we can make rush realise undergoing sanctions start biting and military assistance to ukraine. and extremely sensitive details but there are some very serious thinking and i think that we will see reverses an aggression against ukraine and russia which will suffer an enormous losses. based on the strength on what antony blinken said to you and you cannot say everything that he told you, but there was going to be more support for ukraine in terms of reparative foods systems, more fighterjets so they can take on the russians more effectively than they can at the moment. no question about a no—fly zone, that was not on the agenda? were talking about how to help ukrainians to defend themselves and not how to draw nato into the war

directly. and it is our concern to make sure that ukraine can defend itself and all the weapons and defence systems, it can take down russian planes. defence systems, it can take down russian planes-— russian planes. they said that if ukraine fails _ russian planes. they said that if ukraine fails and _ russian planes. they said that if ukraine fails and putin _ russian planes. they said that if ukraine fails and putin succeeds| ukraine fails and putin succeeds there, that his real ambition is to restore the ussr. lithuania was part of the soviet union so how worried are you in certain circles about having it in their sites? we have someone like _ having it in their sites? we have someone like vladimir - having it in their sites? we have someone like vladimir putin - having it in their sites? we have someone like vladimir putin orl someone like vladimir putin or hitler with ambitions of global geopolitical strategies, then of course you are to be very worried. are you seeing putin is mad and irrational?— irrational? yes, he is irrational and a paranoid _ irrational? yes, he is irrational and a paranoid dictator - irrational? yes, he is irrational and a paranoid dictator with i irrational? yes, he is irrational| and a paranoid dictator with his finger on a nuclear button and we ought to be worried, but to be

who are racing against each other — finished in the following pack. fellow brit matthew holmes extended his lead in the king of the mountains category. to formula one and red bull team principal christian horner says it's unfair that race director michael masi has lost his job. the sport's governing body the fia removed masi from his post after the controversial end to the final race in the calender — the abu dhabi grand prix. masi failed to correctly apply the rules, which gave the advantage to red bull's max verstappen as he went on to win his first world title. horner has been speaking to holly hamilton. i thought it was tough. we had some issues with michael earlier in that race, but it was incredibly hard position and we look at the amount of support that he has compared to the teams, it is quite limited. and i think it is great that an

experienced campaigner flashed i think it is great that an experienced campaignerflashed back experienced campaigner flashed back into experienced campaignerflashed back into the room into the race control for the season, but i did feel it was harsh on michael. and, yeah, obviously a lot of pressure put on him for that to happen. find obviously a lot of pressure put on him for that to happen.— him for that to happen. and they a . reed him for that to happen. and they agreed that _ him for that to happen. and they agreed that the _ him for that to happen. and they agreed that the supported - him for that to happen. and they agreed that the supported been l agreed that the supported been tarnished by what happened and how was handled, how do you think it was handled by the sport? i was handled, how do you think it was handled by the sport?— handled by the sport? i think a lot of it was blown _ handled by the sport? i think a lot of it was blown up _ handled by the sport? i think a lot of it was blown up and _ handled by the sport? i think a lot of it was blown up and when - handled by the sport? i think a lot of it was blown up and when you l of it was blown up and when you grow into it, i think the thing that michael did wrong is not released the two cars right in the back of the two cars right in the back of the field which he has the ability to decide how many cars he's going to decide how many cars he's going to release. would did have change the outcome of that race? not at all. and i do think it was harsh on michael. but it wasn't something that we ask for and we just react to

circumstances at the time we picked the right thing to fit in, they elected not to do that and they're very exposed on 44 and they still had to make the pass to get that move done and did a fantasticjob to do that on the last half of that race. . , ., , ., race. on the decision, they have toured the _ race. on the decision, they have toured the country _ race. on the decision, they have toured the country with - race. on the decision, they have toured the country with their - toured the country with their russian driver, what do you make of the decision and they have dealt with the crisis in ukraine stability can only applaud them for that decision. it is obviously a difficult decision. $5 decision. it is obviously a difficult decision. ~ , , difficult decision. as community, we have come together _ difficult decision. as community, we have come together with _ difficult decision. as community, we have come together with the - difficult decision. as community, we | have come together with the position and ukraine and the russian grand prix to say no, we are not going to race in russian the term of the contract and i think we are taking a united position across all of the

breeze across the southwest up to the irish sea and west facing coast will prevent those temperatures from falling too far through the night tonight. but we have the clearest of the skies perhaps through central and eastern areas north of the lowest temperatures are likely to be with the touch of frost here first thing in the morning. but at least there will be some sunshine around, as well. as we go through the day, the winds will continue to strengthen and cloud will thicken because as we go to the morning and into the afternoon every wussy summer and pushing into northern ireland and gradually into western fringes of scotland and parts of wales. the winds strengthening to gusts in excess of 45—50 miles an hour. so, the best of the sunshine further east, we may well see temperatures speaking at 11 degrees, but underneath the cloud, the wind and the rain feeling cool and disappointing. seven or eight celsius at the very best. that weather front will ease away as we close out tuesday and wednesday. but it is going to allow more fronts to push in off the atlantic.

a spell of wet and windy weather set to continue through the middle parts of the week. so, the good news is a south—westerly flow will bring some milder air with it as those fronts start to push through. i suspect as we go through wednesday, yes, there's a spell of wetter and increasingly windy weather with gale force gusts of winds at times. the best of the brighter weather preps on wednesday will be to the east of the penines. here, we could see some sunshine clouding over across the midlands with that rain out in the northwest. with highs of 13 celsius. once we leave wednesday and we go into thursday, that front will bump into the high pressure over into the near continent and weaken off a touch. so, a little bit of light patchy rain before a ridge of high pressure builds and behind. so, overall on thursday, not a bad day. dry, settled and sunny before wet and windy weather returns by friday.

hello, i'm nuala mcgovern, this is outside source. russian attacks on cities are continuing — despite the offer from russia to create safe escape routes. people queue for hours to escape — but the proposed humanitarian corridors will take people to russia and its ally belarus. in the last several days more strikes have killed and wounded civilians as they try to leave the cities that are being surrounded. residents in the town of irpin, just north of kyiv, are trying to survive the intense bombardment. the ukrainian president is furious. this is a difficultjourney every step of the way. especially for older people trying to pick their way out across rubble and concrete,

having to balance on
