buildings and a metro station. there are also reports of large explosions being heard in the borshchagovka district early this morning. there'll be more efforts to evacuate people from the besieged city of mariupol today. more than 4,000 escaped yesterday. in the united states, a senior defence offical says the russian offensive is stalling, and that little progress was made over the weekend. negotiations between russian and ukrainian representatives are set to resume via video—link. and in moscow, a news editor has been arrested, after she appeared with a sign reading �*no war�* behind a newsreader on russian state—controlled tv. with the latest, jon kay reports. day 20 of the russian invasion and this is how it begins, again. in kyiv, another apartment block in ruins.

0n russian tv last night, an extraordinary moment. the script may be written by the kremlin, but one journalist's act of defiance was seen by millions. her sign says, "no war, stop the war, don't believe the propaganda". it is pictures like this that have provoked such outrage. mariupol in the south—east of ukraine. after two weeks of almost constant shelling by russia, this port city is facing a humanitarian crisis. food, water and medicine are running out. but in his latest address, ukraine's president was unwavering. volodymyr zelensky said the russians were confused and suffering heavy losses. despite the situation on the ground, he said negotiations with russia were continuing. and he suggested some progress was being made. but it's hard to think

of progress when this goes on. in the last couple of days russia has extended its attacks, targeting more towns and cities. as for the russian journalist who made such a public stand, she is now thought to be in police custody. but before her protest, she left this video, calling events in ukraine a crime and blaming vladimir putin. jon kay, bbc news. the continued bombardment of the capital and other cities across ukraine comes as russian forces claim to have taken full control of the kherson region. a spokesman for the russian defense ministry has been speaking in the past hour. translation: the armed forces of the

russian federation _ translation: the armed forces of the russian federation took _ translation: the armed forces of the russian federation took full _ translation: the armed forces of the russian federation took full control- russian federation took full control of the entire territory of the kherson region. the troops of the self—declared donetsk people's republican continuing offensive broke through ukrainian nationalists, took control of one area and reached another. fiur area and reached another. our corresponding _ area and reached another. 0ur corresponding jenny hill is in moscow. we heard a short extract about what the defence minister has been saying —— our correspondent jenny hill. been saying -- our correspondent jenn hill. . , ., been saying -- our correspondent jenny hill-— jenny hill. can you tell us more? the defence _ jenny hill. can you tell us more? the defence ministry _ jenny hill. can you tell us more? the defence ministry here - jenny hill. can you tell us more? . the defence ministry here continues to deliver rather upbeat daily updates on state television here, he said the entire kherson region has now been surrendered, that is significant because it is north of crimea and we are starting to see russian gains along that area, we assume part of the russian military strategy is to try to take a load of

the land along the eastern ukrainian border. it is interesting that the kremlin and officials here continue to remain very positive in public about what is happening, particularly given western military analysts say this is not going the way perhaps russia hoped it would, but as far as people here are concerned, if you switch on state television you only see footage from that part of eastern ukraine and vladimir putin tells russians that what he is doing in ukraine is simply a special military operation to defend the russian speaking populations of that particular part of eastern ukraine, although he also justifies what is happening in ukraine by saying the country itself poses a risk to russia because it is trying to acquire nuclear weapons and try to develop biological ones, that state television tends to show only a limited part of what you get to see on your televisions at home. you mention state television and

there was this audacious protest last night, wasn't there, with the main evening news programme being disrupted by a protest against the war on ukraine by a member of staff who stood behind the newsreader holding a placard. had we any further update on what has happened to her and where she is? we further update on what has happened to her and where she is?— to her and where she is? we don't, this is somebody _ to her and where she is? we don't, this is somebody who _ to her and where she is? we don't, this is somebody who worked - to her and where she is? we don't, this is somebody who worked at - to her and where she is? we don't, i this is somebody who worked at state television as an editor, marina 0vsyannikova. this morning her lawyers say they don't know where she is or what she has been charged with. she was detained last night but has not been seen since so it is assumed she is still in police custody. this is an extraordinarily courageous thing to have done, this is not a country which tolerates dissent and i think we can assume that the authorities will make sure she suffered severe consequences. they're all manner of laws under which she could be prosecuted,

russia recently changed its criminals code meaning anyone who publishes what the kremlin deems false information about the russian army or its activities can be sent to jail for army or its activities can be sent to jailfor up to 15 years. army or its activities can be sent to jail for up to 15 years. we will have to wait—and—see what happens, most people assume she will appear in a moscow courtroom at some point today, we are waiting on updates and will let you know when we know, but for the time being that is when most lawyers, herfriends and for the time being that is when most lawyers, her friends and supporters assume she will face a pretty severe penalty for what she has done here. how possible is it to gauge reaction to her protest? it is how possible is it to gauge reaction to her protest?— to her protest? it is certainly not bein: to her protest? it is certainly not being broadcast _ to her protest? it is certainly not being broadcast or _ to her protest? it is certainly not being broadcast or rerun - to her protest? it is certainly not being broadcast or rerun on - to her protest? it is certainly not| being broadcast or rerun on state television, it is not in the papers with one exception, an independent newspaper has on its front cover published a picture of her protest but they have blurred out the words on her sign because, as i say, it is effectively a criminal offence to publish them now. other than that,

one of my colleagues said she saw some young people on the nature of this morning watching the clip. the kremlin has sought to block access to things like facebook and instagram that you can still look like youtube, the clip is on youtube. people are watching it, she has called for people to take to the streets and instagram but you can still look like youtube, the clip is on youtube. people are watching it, she has called for people to take to the streets in protest. whether it will galvanise them remains to be seen, the kremlin is likely to come them pretty hard on her, which might have had a chilling effect. talks continue between _ have had a chilling effect. talks continue between russia - have had a chilling effect. talks continue between russia and i have had a chilling effect. talks continue between russia and ukraine, are you getting any sense of what sort of progress might be being made, if any? the sort of progress might be being made. if any?— sort of progress might be being made, if any? the fourth round of talks between _ made, if any? the fourth round of talks between russia _ made, if any? the fourth round of talks between russia and - made, if any? the fourth round of talks between russia and ukraine| talks between russia and ukraine started yesterday and they have paused, we were told it was a technical pause overnight but they are starting again at some point today. we have not had very much more from the russian side other than to say i think it was one of the members of the delegation had said he was pleased they would be an

held online rather than face—to—face, as previously, he said it was a very sensible way to proceed. moscow has sounded quite optimistic about these talks in recent days. it is hard to know what to make of that because the fighting continues, the rhetoric from moscow continues, the rhetoric from moscow continues to be pretty belligerent, we know vladimir putin probably needs to reassure russians such as so—called special military operation will not go on forever, troops are coming back injured, we are seeing various politicians and officials visit them in hospital, families are being notified that soldiers are dying, they are being described as heroes ultimately giving their lives on a sacrifice to protect russia but i think it is important for vladimir putin to tell russian people that this war, not that he would call at that, will end at some point, it is important he looks serious about these negotiations but whether that is in fact the case, i can't answer right now. is in fact the case, i can't answer right nova—

right now. good to talk to you, jenny hill— right now. good to talk to you, jenny hill in — right now. good to talk to you, jenny hill in moscow. - the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelensky, has described the talks' progress so far as �*pretty good'. but the sounds of shelling can still be heard in and around the capital. 0ur correspondent in kyiv, james waterhouse, sent this update. it is the second morning we have woken to the sounds of quite loud explosions, and we have heard more continuous shelling coming from the north—west of the cityjust over my left shoulder. there was a very loud bang, about two or three bands, at around 5am. we have learnt three residential blocks were hit, according to authorities. we had seen the burning shells of these buildings where people have been lifted to safety, we understand two people have been killed. this shows the continuation of the russian advance from that direction as well

as the targeting of residential areas. ukraine's government says one of its priorities is reinforcing its air and of its priorities is reinforcing its airand missile of its priorities is reinforcing its air and missile defences, which have proved very effective to this point. you can see them launch into the air when something is flying overhead, they light up the sky when they detonate on impact. but they can't shield people from all of the dangers of this war. some debris from an intercepted missile landed on a quiet residential street yesterday, landing on nature and, one person was killed. the impact of the landing of an intercept —— of an intercepted missile shattered the whole side of the residential block. it connects the sound of the explosion with the devastation itself. these are people who may well be stuck here or are staying out of choice and they face real dangers as the russians continue to attempt to surround the city, although it is not clear if they get have the capacity to do that, unlike

what we are seeing another locations across ukraine.— across ukraine. james waterhouse in k iv. the european union has announced it's approved a fourth set of sanctions against russia. france, which currently holds the eu presidency, said the measures targeted individuals and entities involved in aggression against ukraine along with sectors of the russian economy. it's also been announced that the polish, czech and slovenian prime ministers are travelling to kyiv to meet the ukraininan president. my colleague ben boulous spoke to our brussels correspondent jessica parker for the latest, in the last hour. we have a broad outline from talking to diplomats about what was being looked at, and ursula von der leyen, the european commission president, had talked about this fourth package last week, but we've literally just had the official announcement as to what has been adopted by the 27 member states. so a full prohibition of any transactions with certain russian state—owned enterprises, and they are referring, they say, to the kremlin�*s

military industrial complex, an eu import ban on steel products currently under eu safeguard measures. they say that will amount to 3.3 billion euros of loss in export revenues for russia. also an eu export ban on luxury goods, so they are saying luxury cars, luxury jewellery. that's quite interesting because that was discussed before and diplomats were telling me that italy in particular had blocked that idea, they didn't want to see, but it now looks to have made it onto the list. and as well, we understand roman abramovich, although it hasn't been mentioned here, but i've heard roman abramovich, the chelsea owner, already sanctioned by the uk, is going to be sanctioned by the eu as well in the latest list of oligarchs. they've now sanctioned hundreds of people, subjecting them to asset freezes as well as travel bans. so we've just had that announcement through, it is hot off the press in the next few moments, the fourth sanctions package passed by the european union since the russian invasion. and jessica, just one other point i want to ask you about, quite extraordinary,

we're hearing that the polish, the czech and the slovenian prime ministers will meet the ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky, actually in kyiv, they will be travelling to a warzone. what more do we know about the visit, the purpose of it, and how this will work? yeah, we've just had this announcement this morning, a press notice has gone up on the polish government website about this visit and what it says, as you say, is prime minister mateusz morawiecki will go, along with the prime minister of slovenia and the prime minister of the czech republic. as you say, going to kyiv a bit of a surprise, we didn't have advance status of this before. they are saying it's been organised in agreement with the president of the european council charles michel and the president of the commission ursula von der leyen, so it is something that they are saying the eu here in brussels, the heads here, the chiefs, knew about, and they are saying it is to confirm the unequivocal

support of the entire eu. for the sovereignty and independence of ukraine. and confirmed packages of support for ukraine as well. i think it's worth noting poland, of course, has taken a lead in terms of the refugee crisis but has also been one of those countries that has wanted to take the toughest line against russia, for obvious reasons, with ukraine on its border, but it has long, actually, argued for a tougher approach to russia and i think now wants to clearly lead the way on being seen to support ukraine, go to kyiv, as you say, quite an extraordinary development this morning. let's go straight to moscow. we're now seeing live coverage of the start of the meeting between russian foreign minister sergey lavrov and his iranian counterpart. this is a scheduled meeting. it is expected to focus on the run nuclear deal but we believe it will also

touch on the situation in ukraine. these are the opening remarks before that meeting gets properly under way. it comes, of course, at a time when the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelensky, when the president of ukraine, volodymyrzelensky, has when the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelensky, has said negotiations with russia, peace talks with russia, will continue today. our correspondents in moscow jenny hill was just telling us a little earlier that this is the fourth round of peace talks and they will resume via video link, but at the same time these talks going on between the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov and his iranian counterpart, the meeting is expected to focus on the iran nuclear deal but the situation in ukraine is almost certain to be touched on. more than 1.7 million ukrainians have crossed into poland since the start of the invasion and pressure on cities close to the border

is intense, with beds running out. in krakow an old shopping centre is now being used to house refugee families until they find longer term accommodation. from there, danjohnson reports. from desperation comes innovation. abandoned six months ago, but now it is the latest safe space for ukrainian families. empty shops refitted in record time to take the pressure off a city struggling to cope. there are 400 beds here and capacity to add even more. we've seen transit camps for people fleeing wars time and time again, but this, it's the most modern of solutions to that age—old requirement, and it goes on and on. but how long will this be for? we are prepared to do this as long as it will be needed. so i can't say it will be one week, one month, nobody knows at the moment, unfortunately.

it's warm, it's dry, it's relatively comfortable. ..volunteered to put in these showers and tiling... we bumped into this british volunteer who helped with the conversion. it's going to help process... and for those people who are displaced, and help kind of alleviate the pressures on the borders, so i think absolutely, i think it's great. i think it is what happens after this, and the logistical chain of how these people then relocate to somewhere a bit more permanent. the first ukrainian families are settling in, enjoying some space, some peace and quiet after a journey that left most of them stunned. normally i work as an emergency practitioner in bridgwater. this nhs doctor's here from somerset. this is a big improvement on what he saw at the border. they have showers, they have normal bathrooms, the rooms are actually separated. so far, what i've noted, mostly it's anxiety. general pains, they've been walking or standing in a queue to cross the borderfor hours.

it's sad to see the children just kind of like... empty faced. it's... yeah. it's something which i've never experienced before, so... kamila's volunteering here is a first—aider. she moved back to poland three years ago after living in manchester. are you able to help everybody? we would love to, but sometimes itjust... we can't do it. like, we try our best, and actually one ambulance broke on us so we only have one ambulance now, so we do try to transport as many people as possible, because every life counts for us. and there is relief here in different forms for all ages. those under the stress and strain of running from war and for communities trying to look after them. danjohnson, bbc news, krakow.

an estimated 200,000 children in ukraine's orphanages and foster homes are needing support. this comes as thousands are unaccounted for and there are fears many have fallen prey to people traffickers. aerial recovery, a charity comprised of former us military veterans are assisting vulnerable people fleeing the crisis, and working with the ukrainian authorities to establish a system that will help protect and evacuate some of the vulnerable children. joining me now isjeremy locke who is the chief of operations at the charity aerial recovery — which has been assisting vulnerable people fleeing the crisis. we are very grateful to have you with us, jeremy. tell us a little more about what you are doing in your charity to help these children? we are doing our best to ensure we need to... first of all, it is a terrible situation and the poor children are trapped in war—torn

areas, being shelled and being caught up in this war. the sense of urgency to move them from these areas and get them out of ukraine is great right now, but i am trying to get people to pause a little and not take them directly over borders. we have been able to rescue 266 orphan sofa, we are working directly with government to move them from dangerous areas in the east to safer areas in the west to maintain accountability and ensure they do not go across a border unless the ukraine government is aware of them moving. tell ukraine government is aware of them movinu. ., ., ,., .. , moving. tell me more about exactly how this works. _ moving. tell me more about exactly how this works, you _ moving. tell me more about exactly how this works, you go _ moving. tell me more about exactly how this works, you go into - moving. tell me more about exactly| how this works, you go into ukraine, you know where you outgoing, what happens when you arrive at the orphanages? —— you know where you are going. we orphanages? -- you know where you are anoin. ~ . , , orphanages? -- you know where you are uaoin.~ . , , ., are going. we receive requests for them to be — are going. we receive requests for them to be evacuated, _ are going. we receive requests for them to be evacuated, it - are going. we receive requests for them to be evacuated, it may - are going. we receive requests forl them to be evacuated, it may come directly from orphanage directors, caregivers, somebody in contact with

west, light winds elsewhere. temperature wise, about seven in the north to ia, 15, maybe even 16 in the far south—east. this evening and overnight the weather front continues its journey, overnight the weather front continues itsjourney, moving slowly southwards and eastwards, weakening and fragmenting as it does so, but any weather front will be coming from the south, moving across kent and the east midlands into east anglia. frost free tonight foremost above, the chance of frost across north—east scotland and northern ireland —— northern scotland and northern ireland. the weatherfront is still slowly slipping southwards, this weather front moving north and the other pushing east, so we have a rain ride of weather fronts, the other pushing east, so we have a rain ride of weatherfronts, for want of a better phrase. the weather front is sinking southwards, taking all of the rain, the next one moving north and the next one producing rain across the channel islands and southern counties. high pressure is

building across northern ireland and southern scotland, things turning more settled with sunny spells and showers across the north west. temperatures range from seven in the north to about ia further south. from wednesday to thursday the weather front makes it into the south—eastern corner, taking the rest of the cloud and rain, high pressure builds, lots of dry weather and sunshine around, here is the weather front from the north—west, not particularly heavy rain we are looking at and there will be hill snow. temperatures seven in the north to about ia in the south. as high pressure exerted south across the uk during friday and into the weekend, even into the early part of next week, lots of dry weather, lots of sunshine, i7 next week, lots of dry weather, lots of sunshine, 17 degrees in cardiff on saturday, but by night could well be a touch of frost and we could also be looking at some mist and fog patches for some.

hello, this is bbc news with me, rebecca jones. the headlines... russia's bombardment of ukraine continues. residents are shaken by large explosions in the capital. emergency services say at least two people have died after a residential building was set ablaze. a news editor interrupts a russian state—controlled news programme holding an anti—war sign. she's believed to have been arrested. president zelensky says negotiations with russia will continue via video link in a bid to end the fighting.

the czech republic prime minister, alongside his polish and slovenian counterparts, will meet president zelensky in kyiv in a show of solidarity in the coming hours. the european union approves a fourth set of sanctions against moscow which will target individuals and sectors of its economy. and — hitting the right note — the concert in new york two people have died in overnight attacks in kyiv, as russian forces kept up their bombardment of the ukrainian capital on the 20th day of their invasion. five locations were shelled, including two large residential buildings and a metro station. there are also reports of large

explosions being heard in the borshchagovka district early this morning. there'll be more efforts to evacuate people from the besieged city of mariupol today. more than a,000 escaped yesterday. in the united states, a senior defence offical says the russian offensive is stalling, and that little progress was made over the weekend. negotiations between russian and ukrainian representatives are set to resume, via video—link. and in moscow, a news editor has been arrested, after she appeared with a sign reading "no war" behind a newsreader on russian state—controlled tv. abdujalil abdurasulov from the bbc world service has been to one of the scenes in kyiv. behind me as one of the residential buildings that was hit during overnight shelling. firefighters are still trying to put out the fire. there are a number of fire trucks

here. it will take time before they can stop the fire, because the building is quite big, and almost every single flat here was damaged during shelling. this place is quite close to the area where the fighting is going on. there are reports claiming that russian forces, are about 10—15 kilometres away from this location. we could hear several outgoing fire, as well, artillery fire, which suggests that the front is not that far. you can hear, again, the artillery fire, this sounds like outgoing fire, so the ukrainian forces are firing at the russian military. 0ver ukrainian forces are firing at the russian military. over the past few days, several residential buildings in key ever hit during shelling. this suggests the russian forces would not stop from bombing kyiv, because there was lots of speculation whether the russian troops would be willing to do that,

because this place, the capital of ukraine, has symbolic value for them as well, with lots of churches and historical sites. however, a site like this suggests that the russian troops are ready to use brutal force in order to take kyiv. this troops are ready to use brutal force in order to take kyiv.— in order to take kyiv. as we have been reporting. _ in order to take kyiv. as we have been reporting, hundreds- in order to take kyiv. as we have been reporting, hundreds of- been reporting, hundreds of thousands of refugees have crossed into poland. let's return to krakow in poland and our correspondent dan johnson. tell us about the latest situation where you are. tb tell us about the latest situation where you are-— where you are. 1.8 million ukrainians _ where you are. 1.8 million ukrainians have _ where you are. 1.8 million ukrainians have now- where you are. 1.8 million i ukrainians have now crossed where you are. 1.8 million - ukrainians have now crossed the border into polish cities like krako, that are really taking the pressure of that. we can see these ukrainian families queueing up outside this abandoned shopping centre to collect things like beds,

forfood, clothing, blankets, things like that, and inside the shopping centre, it has been abandoned for the last six months, but last night was the first night some ukrainian family spent sleeping in there. it has been converted to a refugee relief centre. there are rows of beds laid out in abandoned department stores. you get a sense of the innovative solutions authorities are coming up with, to make sure that everybody is housed and safe, but the warning has been so many people crossing the border and arriving to places like this that they are not able to cope with the numbers, not able to keep everybody warm, so that is why things like this are being put in place, to expand the amount of accommodation on offer. let's bring in maria, who is in charge of the wardrobe here, the clothing donations. how are things going? 0pened this last friday. we didn't opened this last friday. we didn't expect— opened this last friday. we didn't expect that it would be such a pitch you every— expect that it would be such a pitch you every day. we gave clothes for

hosts will receive £350 a month, and both sides will undergo background checks. anna adams has this report. so, this is the lounge at the moment. what i was thinking was that this could be converted to a bedroom. natalie is turning her living room into a home for ukrainian refugees. so, in terms of the sofa and everything, all of this, we can just move out of the room, and then we'll look to buy a double bed, king size bed, to go in here. she's even turning her utility room into a storage area for their food. we could completely clear this area out, clear all of the cupboards out, even put a small fridge under the worktop. so it could just sort of provide that area for someone just to have a little bit of space. michael gove, the housing and communities secretary, is hoping thousands of people like natalie will also welcome ukrainians into their homes.

our country has a long and proud history of supporting the most vulnerable during their darkest hours. we took in refugees fleeing hitler's germany. those fleeing repression in idi amin's uganda. and, of course, those who fled the atrocities of the balkan wars. more recently, we've offered support to those fleeing persecution in syria, afghanistan and hong kong, and we are doing so again with homes for ukraine. but labour's lisa nandy criticised the government scheme for what she called excessive bureaucracy. we are really deeply concerned about the lack of urgency. he went on tv yesterday to claim that ukrainians could be here by sunday. but he's just told us that they will still need a visa under the current application process. these are 50—page forms that have to be completed online, asking people who have fled with nothing, to find an internet cafe to upload documents they don't have. in the homes for ukraine scheme, hosts will be expected to offer accommodation for ukrainians for a minimum of six months, and they'll receive £350 tax free

for every month they house a refugee or a family. unlike previous schemes, ukrainians do not need to have any links to the uk, and there will be no limit on the number who can come here. refugees will have access to the nhs and other public services, and their children will be able to attend local schools. natalie's husband, stefan, said taking in someone was an easy decision to make. when we saw what these people are going through, we thought, if we were in their shoes, we'd want someone to offer to give them somewhere to be safe and, you know. _ have a roof over their heads. it could happen to any of us, couldn't it? you just don't know what's round the corner. correct. so it'sjust, it could be could be any of us. with so many people here in the uk wanting to help, whether the government will be able to meet the logistical challenge is yet to be seen. anna adams, bbc news, upminster. meanwhile, the uk prime minister borisjohnson has said the west made a "terrible mistake" and let

president vladimir putin "get away" with annexing crimea in 201a. later today, the foreign secretary is expected to announce new sanctions on more than 100 individuals with links to russian president vladimir putin's regime. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent adam fleming. let's talk about the comments that borisjohnson has made in the daily telegraph, that the west made a terrible mistake by letting president putin get away with the annexation of crimea in 201a. lt is annexation of crimea in 2014. it is annexation of crimea in 2014. it is a sliahtl annexation of crimea in 2014. lit 3 a slightly different argument being made by the prime minister that when he was campaigning for brexit during the eu referendum in 2016, when he said that the invasion of crimea in russia was the fault of the eu for causing trouble in the region so some people will be quite surprised that he has changed his mind. the

second thing to say is that that is a small part of that article he has written for the delhi telegraph. it is much more about energy security, setting the stage —— the daily telegraph. he will be asking the emirates to start pumping more oil with the idea that it will reduce the global oil price and help people with the cost of living and make up for the fact that the uk, eu and us armed withdrawing their purchases of russian oil related to the ukraine conflict and that is setting the stage for next week when we think we will get this new domestic energy security strategy, a brand—new energy policy for the uk cobbled together at high speed over a two—week period since the russian invasion, where we are going to see much more investment in renewables, offshore wind, solar, and a big push on nuclear, and potentially keeping the door open to a bit of fracking although it doesn't sound like the government is that enthusiastic

about it. . ., , ., , about it. new sanctions have 'ust been announced i about it. new sanctions have 'ust been announced by i about it. new sanctions have 'ust been announced by the i about it. new sanctions have 'ust been announced by the uk i about it. new sanctions have just - been announced by the uk government. what are you hearing? tiara been announced by the uk government. what are you hearing?— what are you hearing? two thing is bear in mind- _ what are you hearing? two thing is bear in mind. these _ what are you hearing? two thing is bear in mind. these are _ what are you hearing? two thing is bear in mind. these are trade i bear in mind. these are trade measures. they involve changing russia's status under the world trade organisation rules, so lots of technicaljargon, but what it means is that there will be extra tariffs put a lots of imports of russian products, making them much more expensive, from next week, including pretty famous things like russian vodka, which will have a 35% tariff put on it as a result of this. equally, there will be a ban on the export of luxury goods from the uk to russia. that is being done in concert with the eu as well. that is significant from the eu because up until now italy has been somewhat loath to restrict the export of nice cars and handbags and other luxury goods but they have finally gone there as part of the big western efforts to apply economic sanctions on russia. then the second thing

which has not been announced yet and it's coming out at lunchtime and will come from the foreign secretary liz truss is that up to 100 individuals, maybe more, will be added to the list of those sanctioned and will include companies and organisations as well, and that is being done because the new economic crime bill has just been signed into law overnight, and that gives the government enhanced powers to apply sanctions a bit more quickly and to a wider range of people, so that became law overnight, and decisions will be made at lunchtime.— overnight, and decisions will be made at lunchtime. when the around 88,000 made at lunchtime. when the around 88.000 people _ made at lunchtime. when the around 88,000 people across _ made at lunchtime. when the around 88,000 people across the _ made at lunchtime. when the around 88,000 people across the uk - made at lunchtime. when the around 88,000 people across the uk have . 88,000 people across the uk have already signed up to the government's new sponsorship scheme to take ukrainian refugees into their homes. the government only announced the scheme yesterday. any reaction to the public�*s response? government officials are very pleased. they launched the website, it crashed under the onslaught of inquiries from people. by tea—time yesterday the 44,000 people

expressing interest. overnight, that doubled, to 88,000 this morning. so, spectacular generosity being shown by the british public. but the key phrase there is "expression of interest". the next stage opens on friday, which is when british households will be able to do a joint visa application with ukrainian individuals orfamilies ukrainian individuals or families that ukrainian individuals orfamilies that they have kinda hooked with, and that is, that process starts to get more bureaucratic and i wonder then that people start to realise just what they are getting into, and then the generosity of spirit is there at the start, but, once it becomes a practical issue, maybe there will not be quite so many people and also what about the demand from the ukrainian side? there are millions of people pouring into poland, which is in the neighbourhood. are we going to see huge numbers flocking to the uk? maybe not. huge numbers flocking to the uk? ma be not. ., ~ huge numbers flocking to the uk? ma be not. ., ,, i. ~ ., maybe not. thank you, adam fleming, our olitical

maybe not. thank you, adam fleming, our political correspondent _ maybe not. thank you, adam fleming, our political correspondent in _ our political correspondent in westminster. some newsjust coming in to the bbc from the international committee of the red cross. a spokesman has said that two convoys of 30 buses, quite a sizeable convoy are leaving sumy in north—eastern ukraine to facilitate safe passage of civilians. the international committee of the red cross has said two convoys of 30 buses are leaving north—eastern ukraine to facilitate the safe passage of civilians. the uk is discussing increasing financial support for the international criminal court, to help the investigation into possible war crimes committed in ukraine. the british deputy prime minister dominic raab visited the hague to discuss how countries can assist in bringing to justice the high—ranking officials responsible for breaking the rules of war. our correspondent in the hague anna holligan sent this report.

terror inflicted upon a capital city. this apartment block in the obolon district of kyiv was hit by air strikes on monday morning. the uk was one of a record 41 countries that referred the invasion of ukraine to the international criminal court. the deputy prime minister came to offer his support. we are willing to look at any of the law—enforcement measures and technical areas of expertise that we have got that the icc needs. it is an independent institution, it needs to tell it what they need to, they are doing that with other countries, but we are very clear, we will provide financial support, the technical support for the icc to do itsjob in ukraine. the presence of a high—ranking uk minister here in the hague is highly symbolic and is a reflection of the intensification of the international efforts to try and ensure those accused of committing or ordering war crimes in ukraine eventually face justice. but two things to bear in mind — russia is not a member of icc

and there is no expectation that the kremlin would extradite anyone accused of carrying out the kinds of atrocities this court has the power to prosecute. but presidents once considered to be untouchable have appeared before international tribunals in the past. there will be so many people watching you, listening to you and wondering, will we ever see president putin here at the icc? what are the chances, realistically? very difficult to say right now. the international community will no longer tolerate impunity, and if you commit these kind of awful crimes, you cannotjust see out some luxurious, easy retirement, you cannot travel around the world and it is very important that states, parties and the international community as a whole send that message of accountability. and it's notjust for putin, it's his commanders on the ground in ukraine who will be receiving or at risk of receiving illegal orders. they need to know, and they should know, that they risk ending up in the dock of a court here in the hague and ultimately behind bars in prison.

moscow has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing. obviously that is on everybody's mind as a symbolic aspect of seeing vladimir putin in front of the icc, but i think what is important to keep in mind is the process that would lead up to that, which is the investigation which has been initiated, and the fact that this is an historic moment for the international criminal court, i think, with more than 40 states having referred the situation to the court, the prosecutor acting immediately to go and investigate. what would it take for president putin to end up in the hague? it would require, of course, investigation to provide evidence of the commission of crimes, and then you would come up with major obstacles which are lack of cooperation, difficulty to arrest, immunity, also. so will it ever happen? i don't think it will happen in the near future, but it doesn't mean there can't be justice. the icc has sent an advance team to collect evidence, clues that could help to establish the chain of command and identify the person at the top responsible for this. anna holligan, bbc

news, in the hague. chelsea football club could be sold by the end of the month — according to the american investment firm handling the deal. it follows talks with the uk government yesterday. the sale is on hold, following those sanctions placed on russian owner roman abramovich last week. the deadline for bids is this friday — with more than 20 credible parties interested. and the club have told supporters they're "pressing the government every day" to find a solution to make tickets available. the current sanctions mean they can't sell any but are arguing sporting integrity will be at risk if fans cant attend. latest from ukraine. we told you about that news editor who

interrupted russian state—controlled news programme. the kremlin has now said that the actions of that woman who interrupted what was a live news bulletin on russia's state television channel one said that her actions amounted to hooliganism. as far as they are concerned this is hooliganism, according to the kremlin, before going on to praise channel one for what it calls its quality, objective and timely programming on channel one. and another piece of news, i would just like to tell you, some news just in, that the british iranian aid worker nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe has been given her british passport back. this news just in to us at the bbc. but, we understand that there are
