anywhere is better than australia, right? well, they don't win very often in the caribbean, either. alex lees, on his england debut, lasted nine minutes. the finger goes up! next, zak crawley. 17-2. a good time to remember england have won one series here since 1968. well, how about now? joe root undone by the outstanding kemar roach. yes, captain, clean bowled. when dan lawrence fell, caught, england were 48—4. so england trying to rebuild with jonny bairstow. the ground is open to the elements and to the vaccinated tourist. england fans everywhere. they saw the score reach 100. england would like to win everywhere. first, they must compete somewhere. joe wilson, bbc news, antigua. time for a look at the weather. here's nick miller.

the chance of a shower in antigua tomorrow. here, aftera the chance of a shower in antigua tomorrow. here, after a cold start, some sunshine at least across eastern areas, appreciated by the lambs. on the western side of the uk, the cloud has been increasing and many of us have seen a bit of rain at some stage today. low pressure is now taking over. it is bringing in outbreaks of rain, particularly across western parts of the uk over the next few days, and quite windy here as well. overall, around these areas of low pressure, that when switching to a southerly direction so it is turning milder. when you get to see some sunshine, it will feel more springlike out there. we have seen some heavy rain across parts of northern ireland today, heavy and thundery rain moving through scotland this evening but after midnight, most places are dried with variable cloud and clear spells, quite breezy but nowhere nearas spells, quite breezy but nowhere near as cold as it was last night, temperatures are staying above freezing. we can see the next weather system already coming in for tomorrow and by the end of the morning, very wet across northern ireland, north—west scotland, heavy and persistent rain with gusty wind

and persistent rain with gusty wind and gradually feeding across more of scotland into western most parts of wales and england as the day goes on. across the eastern side of england during the afternoon, increasing amounts of sunshine. it is blustery and gusty wherever you are and particularly across northern ireland, western scotland, through irish sea coast, 40—50 mph, maybe 60 mph gusts in some spots. sunny spells to the east but later in the day, some snow into the highlands and southern uplands as the weather system begins to pull away from scotland. by thursday morning, northern and western scotland and northern ireland, the frost will be back and for much of wales and eastern england, a quite start today. still some patchy rain around, not as windy but quite windy over the weekend and at the very least, showers. that's all from the bbc news at six, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc�*s news teams where you are.

welcome back. you're watching bbc news. ukraine's president volodymyr zelensky has addressed members of the uk parliament by video—link from kyiv. it's the first time a foreign leader has ever spoken directly to mps in the house of commons. mr zelenksy called on the uk to increase the strength of sanctions on russia and to recognise the country as a terrorist state. he said that the dirt sir winston churchill's dirt famous "we shall fight on the beaches" speech. translation: over 13 days of this situation, | over 50 children have been killed. these are the children that could have lived, but these people have taken them

away from us. the united kingdom, ukraine were not looking to have this war. ukraine have not been looking to become big, but they have become big over the days of this war. we are the country that are saving people despite having to fight one of the biggest armies in the world. we have to fight the helicopters, rockets. the question for us now is, to be or not to be? the shakespearean question. for 13 days this question could have been asked, but now i can give you a definitive answer — it is definitely yes, to be.

and i would like to remind you the words the united kingdom have already heard, which are important again — we will not give up, and we will not lose. we will fight till the end, at sea, in the air, we will continue fighting for our land, whatever the cost. we will fight in the forests, in the fields, on the shores, in the streets. i would like to add that we will fight on the banks of different rivers, and we are looking for your help, for the help of the civilised countries. we are thankfulfor this help, and i am very

grateful to you, boris. please increase the pressure of sanctions against this country, and please recognise this country as a terrorist state. and please make sure that our ukrainian skies are safe. please make sure that you do what needs to be done and what is stipulated by the greatness of your country. best of all to ukraine and to the united kingdom. applause. president zelensky dressing mps just after five o'clock that afternoon. the british prime minister, borisjohnson, made this promise after president zelensky�*s address. never before in all our centuries of our parliamentary democracy has the house listened

to such an address. in a great european capital now within range of russian guns, president volodymyr zelensky is standing firm for democracy and for freedom. in his righteous defence, i believe he has moved the hearts of everybody in this house. at this moment, ordinary ukrainians are defending their homes and their families against a brutal assault. and they are, by their actions, inspiring millions by their courage and their devotion. and i think today one of the proudest boasts in the free world is, "ya ukrayinets — i am a ukrainian." so this is a moment for us to put our political differences aside, mr speaker, and i know i speak for the whole house when i say that britain and our allies are determined to press on, to press on with supplying our ukrainian friends with the weapons they need

to defend their homeland as they deserve, to press on with tightening the economic vice around vladimir putin, and we will stop importing russian oil — the business secretary will update the house on that tomorrow. and we will employ every method that we can, diplomatic, humanitarian, and economic, mr speaker, until vladimir putin has failed in this disastrous venture and ukraine is free once more. in other breaking news tonight, presentjoe biden has confirmed a complete ban on russian oil, gas and coal imports to the us. he says moves means the "american people will deal another powerful blow" to putin's leadership. despite mounting fears of rising gas prices, the move has widespread bipartisan political support in the us. today i'm announcing the united states is targeting the main artery of russia's economy.

we're banning all imports of russian oil and gas and energy. that means russian oil will no longer be acceptable at us ports, and the american people will deal another powerful blow to putin's war machine. this is a move that has strong bipartisan support with congress and, i believe, in the country. americans have rallied to support the ukrainian people and made it clear we will not be part of subsidising putin's war. we made this decision in close consultation with our allies and our partners around the world, particularly in europe, because a united response to putin's aggression has been my overriding focus, to keep all nato and all of the eu and our allies totally united. we're moving forward with this ban understanding that many of our european allies and partners may not be in a position to join us. the united states produces far more oil domestically than all the european countries combined. in fact, we're a net exporter

of energy, so we can take this step when others cannot. but we're working closely with europe and our partners to develop a long—term strategy to reduce their dependence on russian energy as well. our teams are actively discussing how to make this happen, and today we remain united in our purpose — to keep pressure mounting on putin and his war machine. this is a step that we're taking to inflict further pain on putin, but there will be cost as well here in the united states. i said i would level with the american people from the beginning, and when i first spoke to this, i said defending freedom's going to cost, it's going to cost us as well in the united states. republicans and democrats alike understand that. alike have been clear that we must do this. her business reporter cimirot hussain told us this was an

important move by the americans. it is significant in terms of talking about the united states of america that has said that a slip, there is no longer any russian energy that is allowed here in the united states. granted, in terms of energy dependency, russian imports here to america represent roughly eight to 10% of all american energy imports. so it's not significant, and as you had from the president, it is a step the united states can take while other allied countries cannot take it because they are far more reliant on that. in the united states has already earlier this week been looking to other countries to try to fulfil that gap. it has been speaking with saudi arabia in terms of increasing its imports, and it has been speaking to even countries like venezuela, and remember oil has been banned from then as 2019.

war affects millions of people, and disrupts their lives, tears them out of their communities, their homes and theirfamilies. but of their communities, their homes and their families. but what about their pets? and the animals they keep on farms and small holdings? some people are hoping to send their pets abroad whilst others are still trapped in ukraine. the bbc does make tim ullman has more. when the war began, natalia and vlodymir headed west, from donetsk to lviv. they brought with them their pet cat, charlie. it proved to be a stressfuljourney for the whole family. translation: he is playful. he is not quiet. he likes to play. it was hard to transport him in the cage because he is very active. our trip lasted for a0 hours. it was really hard for him. they came here to a shelter that, before the invasion, only took in wild animals.

but now, it has become a staging post for people fleeing the violence who want their pets to be safe and sound. we are making them secure for secure travel, and we are going to try and take as many animals as we can out, back to latvia, back to europe, back to safety. no such safety for this jaguar or sabrina, a black panther, they live in the luhansk region of ukraine. you can question the rights or wrongs of keeping animals like these as pets, but their owner, a doctor, won't leave them behind. translation: | decided | am not. going anywhere without my children. i am not going anywhere. if there is a possibility to leave with my children, only then will i leave. and if i die, i die. back in lviv, natalia and her husband say they will stay in ukraine. as for charlie, the hope is, once the war ends, they will all be reunited. tim allman, bbc news.

i will be back at 10:30pm with the papers. dojoin us for i will be back at 10:30pm with the papers. do join us for that if you can. now it is time for sports day. good evening, welcome to the programme. sport continues to be dominated by events in ukraine. we'll hearfrom former world heavyweight champion vladimir klitscho and his brother who are in kyiv at the moment, but first news that premier league mathces will no longer be screened in russia. it was confirmed at a meeting of clubs in london, one of several topics discussed. ourfootball reporter simon stone has the details. all 20 clubs have met the four hours today, but i'm told there was just 15 minutes of discussion around the russia situation, and basically it was just to agree that the

broadcaster premier league games into russia will be suspended with immediate effect, so the four games that take place on thursday will not be shown in russia and neither will be shown in russia and neither will be the matches at the weekend. so the decision has been made, there were no dissenting voices, in addition the premier league is agreed to donate £1 million to the disasters emergency committee to provide humanitarian aid into ukraine, and it also repeated that it strongly condemns what it describes as a russian invasion of ukraine and repeats its call for peace. ukraine and repeats its call for eace. �* �* , , ~' ukraine and repeats its call for eace. �* �* , , 4' ., peace. and we've seen this kind of show of unity _ peace. and we've seen this kind of show of unity within _ peace. and we've seen this kind of show of unity within football, - peace. and we've seen this kind of show of unity within football, this | show of unity within football, this show of unity within football, this show of unity within football, this show of support for ukraine, we saw it at premier league matches last weekend, a sea of blue and yellow, the colours of ukraine, but it's been decided there won't be a repeat of that this weekend? the been decided there won't be a repeat of that this weekend?— of that this weekend? the premier

face "every sanction." it is nothing against the personalities or athletes, it is about the politics of russia. every russian representative _ about the politics of russia. every russian representative in - about the politics of russia. every russian representative in this - about the politics of russia. er russian representative in this case needs to be sanctioned. because this way we show to russia that the world is against this senseless war. every ukrainian is a target. and it has been done already. unfortunately, they are children that got killed, women get killed, civilians get killed. every single person that you would think it is not a target, or anyone could say, we are all targets because we have chosen which direction we want to go, we want to be associated with the eu and europe and democratic values. so if you think differently, you are definitely a target. we need to stop this. we need to stop this war, we

need to stop putin in this case. we need to stop putin in this case. we need to stop putin in this case. we need to have ukraine as a great country which we are, and i am very proud of as ukrainians and i am very proud of as ukrainians and i am very proud of as ukrainians and i am very proud of our determination for freedom. i am proud of our determination for freedom. iam proud proud of our determination for freedom. i am proud to be ukrainian. let's move away from events in ukraine for the moment, and to cricket where it's a big day for england as they take on the west indies in both the women's world cup and the first day of the men's test series. news from dunedin in a moment, but first to antigua where it's been a torrid first couple of sessions forjoe root�*s side. england batting first, 145—5. this test match began not so much with new lessons but i'll remind us. we know england lack quality top—class batters at the top of the order and they have done for years. zak crawley and alex lees opening the batting in this test match, both fell cheaply, it is a tough job and

that extra level of concentration required to open the test matches batting we did not see today. of course they will get other opportunities during the series. england don't have any other options, either here or at home. what aboutjoe root? moving up to bat in number three now for england. kemar roach tell me the build—up to this match thatjoe root�*s wicket was a crucial one though he mentioned ben stokes as well, and it was roach who dismissed route with a classic. the ball almost drifting in on the antiguan breeze. perhaps it did. it's very windy here and roach is a master of using those conditions. jason holder, a class act as well. england really have struggled to score against him. it wasjonny bairstow who struggled to score against him. it was jonny bairstow who led struggled to score against him. it wasjonny bairstow who led the recovery, and that please the crowd here, overwhelmingly english, vaccinated, test match tourism is back and so vital for the island economy here. you do wish at times we had some of the excitement and

west indian vibrancy we witnessed when test matches were played on the other ground. so, to dunedin and the women's cricket world cup. england face west indies tonight as they look to bounce back from their defeat to australia on saturday. the defending champions are staying positive though — they did lose their opening game to india five years ago, and went on to win the tournament. tammy beaumont insists they can draws upon that experience. i think obviously is getting to not get the two points on the board in your first world cup game but at the same time i think that was a really good account of ourselves and particularly the batting in the chassis is was not up to standard, not up to the way we want to play, and go out there in the dj 311 was a great way to go about it. so lots of them i think is a bit cliche and sport that you can take les from a defeat, but was i think it's true. a lot of teams can, anyone can beat anyone, you will see a number of upsets this world cup, there will be no easy games are no easy run—in to

hopefully get to a semifinal in the final again. we did lose against india in 2017, says that the end of the world being no points from one game, but this is where we really have to turn it around and not take them lightly. meanwhile, australia built on their opening match win against england by beating pakistan. alana king took two wickets as the aussies restricted pakistan to 190 from their 50 overs. and the aussies passed that total easily to win by seven wickets and make it two victories out of two. let's have a quick look at some of the other stories making the sports news today. ireland captainjohnny sexton has confirmed he will retire after the 2023 world cup. the leinster fly—half made the announcement today after signing a contract extension until the end of the tournament in france. world number three alexander zverev faces an eight—week ban from tennis if he repeats the behaviour which led to his expulsion from the mexican open. last month, the olympic

champion was fined £31,000 and forfeited his prize money for striking the umpire's chair in acapulco. zverev will be banned if he commits another similar offence within 12 months of the incident. and the head of the british horse racing assocition, annamarie phelps, andy murray has pledged to donate his prize—money earnings for the rest of the year to children affected by russia's invasion of ukraine. he affected by russia's invasion of ukraine. , ., ~ ukraine. he is working with the chari to ukraine. he is working with the charity to provide _ ukraine. he is working with the charity to provide medical- ukraine. he is working with the . charity to provide medical supplies and development kits. to football, where the last 16 of the champions league continues — two second leg games, with bayern munich and salzburg level at 1—1 after the first leg, while at anfield, liverpool host inter milan. despite his side establishing a healthy 2—0 lead, klopp is taking nothing for granted. they are really good, really experienced team and they don't come here as tourists. they want to chase

the game and that is what we want to do. because we are not a team who defends results or tries to get through somehow, we want to attack the game. and, yeah, let's see what we can get for it. everton manager frank lampard says he has �*no fear�* for the rest of the season despite his side sitting just one point above the relegation zone. they were thrashed 5—0 by tottenham last night, with harry kane scoring twice. everton haven't been relegated from the top flight since 1951 — that's longer than liverpool or manchester united. but both fans and manager will be in for a nervy end to the season. when i came in here i could feel there was a feeling about the club there was a feeling about the club there was a fear of relegation, it is there and rightly so because the table looks at you every day. at the same time we have 13 games, that's a lot of points, a lot of football to play, and we absently understand our position. it's very clear. i

think the problem is the players don't _ think the problem is the players don't have the heart, the grit, you look at _ don't have the heart, the grit, you look at the — don't have the heart, the grit, you look at the likes of burnley, for all the — look at the likes of burnley, for all the criticisms they are fighters, they know what it's like to he _ fighters, they know what it's like to he in— fighters, they know what it's like to he in a — fighters, they know what it's like to be in a relegation battle and said watford and norwich. this is not a _ said watford and norwich. this is not a place — said watford and norwich. this is not a place that the players we have have been_ not a place that the players we have have been for quite a while, certainly— have been for quite a while, certainly not at this club, and it's not a _ certainly not at this club, and it's not a place — certainly not at this club, and it's not a place the club has been in years _ not a place the club has been in years so — not a place the club has been in years so i _ not a place the club has been in years. so i thinkjust the fact that the relegation zone is tough and we've _ the relegation zone is tough and we've not— the relegation zone is tough and we've not been in this position before, — we've not been in this position before, it _ we've not been in this position before, it terrifies me a little bit. and there's plenty more analysis on everton plus some of the other big football stories on today's the football news show, which is available to watch on the bbc iplayer now. on to beijing — no medals for the british athletes today at the winter paralympics — and a setback for gb�*s wheelchair curlers. they had increased their chances of reaching the semi—finals after beating estonia 10—5 in the morning session. but they are now seventh in the standings after losing to table—toppers sweden,

with only the top four advancing. so far, all of great britain's medals at the games have come from the visually impaired alpine ski team. following her bronze medal in the super combined yesterday, we caught up with britain's most decorated winter paralympian, menna fitzpatrick, to find out what makes them so successful. we've had some really good visually impaired skiers in the past and we've learned from all the things they've gone through, all the experiences of them, and brought them forward and worked well on how to build a good team. and it remakes a difference when everyone is reading from the same book and, yeah, it definitely makes it a lot easier. that's all from sportsday. head over to the bbc sport website, where you'll find all the build up to tonight's champions league games. that's bbc.co.uk/sport. from all the team here, goodnight.

good afternoon. it was a chilly start for many with blue skies, but the blue skies have been eroded. a weather front�*s moving in off the atlantic, and that's true, really, of the rest of the week. it'll often be quite windy as well, turning a little milder with winds coming in generally from a southerly direction, but there will be some rain around, and it will primarily be in western areas because we still have high pressure influencing our weather further east. so, those weather fronts tend to weaken as they bump into that area of high pressure. nevertheless, quite a bit of cloud has moved in across the western side of the uk. some heavy bursts of rain expected across parts of western scotland, for example. if it brightens later in northern ireland, we'll see some sharp showers coming in here, and we'll see some sunshine continuing further east. but it's a breezy day, not a windy day throughout, and it was a chilly start, so it does feel pretty chilly if you're not in the sunshine out there.

and that will be notable across the western side, where we've got more cloud. now, through the evening and overnight, this weatherfront will continue its progress eastwards, but it will weaken. there could be some snow temporarily over the scottish mountains, but what it does is provide a blanket of clouds, and with the breeze continuing, it means most places should be largely frost—free. but you can see towards morning, we've got more wetter weather working its way into northern ireland, wetter and windier weather. but as i say, quite a different night. much milder than the one that hasjust gone. and that's because we'll have more cloud to start even in eastern areas first thing, but this draws the attention. some fairly hefty and persistent rain coming in across the western side of the uk. with it, we've got that milder, slightly milder atlantic air coming in as well. and that's a theme really for the rest of the week, although you'll notice some cold air does dig in later. but gale—force winds again pestering many western and northern areas. it'll be a breezy day further east blowing some holes in the cloud, where it could be quite sunny in eastern parts of england. but further west, heavier, quite persistent rain for much of the day,

potentially parts of scotland, northern ireland, western england and wales. but it's a mild breeze that's blowing in, and it should fall a little bit lighter later in the day towards the north, where the risk of snow increases, the southern uplands, the highlands and the grampians. that weather front starts to meander a little bit further eastwards, but it mayjust weaken into a band of cloud. some uncertainty, but what we will find is the winds drop light for a time on thursday morning and there could be some fog to watch out for. and then there's more rain to come as we move into friday.

hello, i'm ros atkins, this is outside source. the us and uk ban russian oil as the west harden its response to the invasion of ukraine. that means russian oil will longer be acceptable at us ports, and the american people will deal another powerful blow to putin's war machine. we want to see the elimination of russian oil imports during the course of the year. the ukrainian president receives a standing ovation from british mps as he becomes the first leader to address parliament via videolink. after days of shelling, a temporary ceasefire allows residents in the ukrainian city of sumy to escape. on the front line north
