scotland as we see a northerly wind developing this week, that cold air will be swept southwards across the whole of the country. these are the temperatures the we are looking at on thursday. it will feel colder in the wind and with those temperatures from the middle part of the week there is every chance of seeing sleet and snow just about anywhere. today, though, it is rain that kept it chillier across northern england under that cloud as well. either side of that we are seeing warm sunshine coming through although there is more cloud in more southern counties the, bringing showers as well but in the sunshine temperatures could be up to round 18 degrees, we will see cloud continuing to thicken across southern parts of england, the rain turning heavier, the rain easing a bit in northern england and there is another band of rain to come into the far north of scotland. much of scotland will have clearer skies u temperatures could be close to freezing tonight. there is a lot of mist, fog and low cloud pushing into eastern england, into the midlands, it will slowly tend to lift. some

places could stay dull and cold all day. that rain treating into the channel. we will see sunshine, a few showers too and wet weather continues southwards into scotland. that will turn wintry in the hills. 14 that will turn wintry in the hills. 1a is the top temperature tomorrow and it is particularly chilly on that weather front we have in northern scotland. that weather front moves southwards, the cold air comes down with it and the weather front bringing the cloudy air into england and wales, it is mostly rain but wintriness over the hills and to the north of that weather front, the showers that follow be turning wintry. things get interesting in southern part of the uk on wednesday night, because that colder air continuing to dig down will turn the rain to sleet and snow, even to lower levels there could be a slight covering by thursday morning, that wet weather will move away, and then it will be sunshine on thursday, there will be shower, a perpetratoring of showers coming in

and those will be wintry, hail, sleet and snow just about anywhere and these are the temperatures on thursday so for the eastern side round about six degrees, and this will be quite a shock to the system. clive. a reminder of our top story: ukraine's president says he wants peace without delay and would discuss a neutral status for his country as part of any deal with russia. and the mayor of mariupol warns the besieged port city faces "humanitarian catastrophe" and says it must be completely evacuated. that's it, so goodbye from me. now on bbc one, let'sjoin our news teams where you are. have a very good afternoon.

england's joe root says he should stay as the side's test cricket captain, following the series defeat to west indies. root�*s tenure has come under question again, after they crumbled to a 10 wicket defeat in grenada, and lost the deciding test. he survived the post ashes cull of senior roles within the england camp. they lost that 4—0 against australia. and root — who has been captain since 2017, has now overseen four series defeats in a row, they've won just once in 17 matches — and not had a run like this since the eighties. i feel very passionate about taking this team forward. i feel like there is the support of the dressing room behind me and i'm desperate to turn that around and to see them smiling, celebrating because, we do not feel that far away. it is an easy thing to say i'm probably a frustration for many people to hear but i'm very

passionate taking them forward and hopefully that will be the case. britain's cameron norrie has reached the fourth round of the miami open for the first time, beating hugo gaston of france. the british number one's serve was broken in the first game — but recovered to take the set six games to three — he controlled the second, but squandered 7 match points before winning on the 8th and moving into the last 16 — to face norway's casper ruud. nick krygios is also through too captain heather knight says england can still improve as they prepare for the semi—finals of the women's world cup. the defending champions lost their first three games and needed four successive wins to book a meeting with south africa on thursday, and speaking to bbc sport knight explained how the team have found the last few months quite stressful. it has been a stressful couple of months, i think. it has been a stressful couple of months, ithink. it it has been a stressful couple of months, i think. it has been quite a long tour, quite a difficult tour with the ashes. i pride myself on trying to stay quite level but there

we are doing well or not. i tried to stay the same person as much they can and try to bring that stability is a camellia, it has been stressful. there have been issues. things we have had to change and try to get right but i think massey said, after those losses i think all the things that had gone wrong had been control and that is what made it so frustrating that we are losing. it so frustrating that we are losing. the canadian men's national team finally ended a 36 year world cup drought. after thrashing jamaica 4—0 in toronto. it means they've qualified for qatar with canada's all time top goal scorer cyle larin, and tajon buchanan putting canada 2—0 up at half—time. beforejunior hoilett and an adrian mariappa own goal sealed the victory. ukrainian world indoor champion — yaroslava mahuchikh has been speaking to bbc sport. following a 1200 mile journey, over three days, from her home in dnipro to belgrade. mahuchikh, who won gold in the high jump at the championships in serbia last week, was told not to return home . and has been trying to find somewhere to live and train. she's been staying in germany but travels to turkey today

fora training camp. physically i was so... what i do before but mentally it is complicated to me because my heart remained to ukraine, to my father, to people who stayed in ukraine, helped, and protected our country and i read the news every day before watching and when i go to the track my coach says it will be difficult for you but you need to focus on the highjump here on track for you but you need to focus on the high jump here on track you for you but you need to focus on the highjump here on track you must show a good result for your country. biniam girmay made history as the first african cyclist to win a one—day classic, as he triumphed in the gent—wevelgem on sunday girmay, from eritrea, was part of a four—rider breakaway in the last 30km and sprinted

to victory with 250m to go. after his win girmay said "we just changed my plan a few days ago on friday. we just came for a good result. this changes a lot in the future, especially for all african riders," that is all the sport from as for now.. that is all the sport from as for now.. i'll have more for you in the next hour. in russia, dissent has always been a dangerous game. in 2015, boris nemtsov, an opposition politician once tipped to be president of russia, was shot and killed on a bridge in the centre of moscow. his murder remains the most high—profile political assassination to have taken place in putin's russia. at the time, five men were convicted for the shooting, but questions remain about exactly who gave the order. now, an investigation by bellingcat, the insider, and bbc eye investigations has uncovered new evidence which throws light on the case.

in russia, dissent has always been a dangerous game. boris nemtsov was one of putin's most vocal critics. he denounced corruption and moscow's war in ukraine in 2014. translation: we should say enough of idiocy, we should say russia and ukraine without putin. days before he was due to hold another rally, nemtsov was gunned down on a bridge right in front of the kremlin. 0lga was a close friend and colleague. it was impossible to imagine that the political opponent would be killed. just killed in the centre of moscow. five ethnic chechens, some linked to the brutal kremlin backed warlord ramzan kadyrov were convicted of his murder. but who ordered the killing? nemtsov�*s friends suspected vladimir putin himself. the kremlin has always denied the allegation. now, we have uncovered evidence which lends fresh credibility

to the suspicion that the kremlin wanted boris nemtsov dead. we can reveal in the year leading up to his death, boris nemtsov was being tracked across russia by a government agent. nothing unusual in that, you might think, the kremlin keeps tabs on the opposition. but this man wasn't some low ranking recruit on routine business. all the evidence tells us he was an officer with the fsb, russia's main security agency, and that he was deeply connected to a secret fsb assassination squad. according to his documents, his name is valery nikolaevich sukharev. through a series of data leaks we have been able to track sukharev�*s movements in the months leading up to nemtsov�*s death, and when we compare them to the known movements of nemtsov, a chilling pattern emerges. in the year running up

to his murder, the travel record shows that sukharev tailed nemtsov on 13 round trips across russia. phone and travel records link agent valery sukharev to at least two apparent assassination attempts, both aimed at other prominent creditics of vladimir putin. the most well—known is opposition leader alexei navalny, who was posened with the nerve agent novichock in 2020. it isn't clear why boris nemtsov�*s killers chose bullets instead of poison, or if the two assassination squads are linked. boris nemtsov was the most effective, the most prominent and most powerful political opponent of vladimir putin's regime, full stop, and they could not have silenced him any other way. we put these findings to the russian government and to the fsb. the kremlin denied any involvement and said this story was a fabrication. the fsb did not respond.

for many russians, the killing of boris nemtsov was a glimpse behind the mask of a murderous state. seven years later, russia is engaged in an all out war in ukraine. and the mask is off. gabriel gatehouse, bbc news. north korea has an extensive prison system, which is often used to jail people seen as enemies of, or threats to, the control wielded by kim jong—un. it's a hidden part of a highly secretive regime — but — a group of investigators have put together a 3—d computer model of what a north korean detention center looks like. 0ur correspondent in seoul, laura bicker, has the details. the prison modelled it is the detention centre just a few miles within the north korean border. many of the detainees were caught trying to escape north korea and sent back from china to this detention centre. now, what we can see within the

model is that many of the detainees crawled through a tiny door only about a metre high. many believe it is done so that detainees are kept on their hands and knees. and they go into the cell, to smell with nine people inside and they all have to sit cross—legged for about 12 hours a day with their hands on their knees. they are not allowed to talk and are only given a break to eat and are only given a break to eat and sleep. when it comes to food, there only given a few corn husks a day to eat. when the career future group were looking into this database, what they found is just over 5000 human rights violations and they have identified nearly 600 alleged perpetrators. that is what makes this database very different. it is incredibly detailed. they've also used international legal experts in the hope that they can bring each of those perpetrators one day to justice. when bring each of those perpetrators one day tojustice. when it bring each of those perpetrators one day to justice. when it comes to those kinds of human rights

violations were talking about starvation, forced abortions, pervasive sexual abuse and executions including the killing of newborn babies, which they had evidence about within the database. when it comes to actually getting to the point ofjustice, many people say it is unlikely. but we have spoken to two survivors from that detention centre and what they hope is that this report will one day bring them that step closer. the penal system in north korea. the penal system in north korea. more now from the academy awards in hollywood — which has been overshadowed by the on—stage confrontation between actors will smith and chris rock. off the stage, the small, independent production �*coda' received the academy�*s biggest prize. it's the first time a film from an independent company has been awarded the best picture 0scar. 0ur correspondent sophie long has been at an oscars after party, from where she spoke to one of the stars of that oscar winning movie, coda. congratulations.

story, and it made everyone feel connected and you guys learn something new and it is about family still, and connection. again, i am so happy that it came out during covid because during covid that was what we needed. we can see the family in coda and it is a positive message so i am looking forward to seeing more deaf actors. before the oscars, when we first met, you told me that you were so excited to have met will smith, that he was the guy that you wanted to hang outwith. obviously everyone is talking about will smith tonight. a what is your view on what happened in that room this evening? happened in that room really, i mean, it is really, will as a human, you know. like, i'm just happy for his successes and we are all human and the stuff we go through is crazy. just like the coda movie. we had been in a different environment and we deal with people being negative

to us again, yeah, i love well. really, something else happened with will smith i would not talk about it again. he is human. a wonderful night for your on—screen you must feel elated for him and of course those with you on this journey all the way through. the first person i think is her because she wrote the story. she made this, our characters. she built her characters. she believed in us and fought for our casting. we needed real deaf actors and now we're winning all these things for the oscars now so itjust shows that. that is the right way do it. movie, so, again, ithank everywhere and i am still in shock. i don't know what to say. how are you going to celebrate tonight? i don't know. i'm going to see what is happening here. i hope i can dance to some heavy bass so i can feel it. and i will dance. i can see you are already covered in lipstick so you are having a wonderful evening and i will let you carry on and do that. congratulations. and thank you so much for stopping to talk to us.

for without covid still feels a long way away. in plymouth, the battle to prevent plastic reaching the sea has taken on a robotic form. remote controlled vehicles called waste sharks have been deployed, designed to hoover up litter in the water. john danks has been to see the new technology in action. on the prowl for plastic, these high—tech predators have been deployed around plymouth's waterways to lap up later. you and we are trying to reduce the amount of plastic that is actually reaching the ocean which is with the important. these things here, these are remote operated vehicle is called waste sharks and they kind of bob around the water picking up litter as they go so they are quite innovative, they are quite new, they are the first ones that have ever beenin are the first ones that have ever been in plymouth and that is really exciting. the council received two of the vehicles and a defence firm have purchased one for use in the dockyard. the good thing is they're quite easy to operate as well so applying to hand this over to guys that, you know, may have gone round and collected rubbish with a net

previously standing on a vote, they can now stand safely on the dockside and go around and collect the rubbish in the basin. eventually, they may not need people to control them at all thanks to artificial intelligence. the same technology used in the mayflower autonomous ship which aims to cross the atlantic this year could be added to the waste sharks.— the waste sharks. most of the technology — the waste sharks. most of the technology is _ the waste sharks. most of the technology is already - the waste sharks. most of the technology is already inside . the waste sharks. most of the i technology is already inside them for a gps and it has thrusters on the back for propulsion. we will have to put a control system in between. and you some clever ai have to put a control system in between. and you some clever al to make them recognise bits of waste and go and chase the waist down. preventing waste from entering the water would of course do away with the need for these machines. for now, they are solution which, while avoiding bumps along the way, could provide opportunities for learning. it would be good for local schools to get _ it would be good for local schools to get involved in with the help inform — to get involved in with the help inform future generations about the developments and also how important

is to obviously preserve the environment of the harbour. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren bett. it has been warm in the sunshine again today but how things are going to change through the west of this week. it is going to be turning much, much colder. temperatures will be falling away really quite significantly. today, 17 or 18 degrees in the sunshine, above average from the time of year. it co—directed the north of scotland as we see an elderly when developing. the cold array will push its way southwards and the temperatures we have got by thursday and it will feel colder in the wind and with those sort of numbers it is actually going to be cold enough for some sleet and snow to fall almost anywhere. today, though, it has been rain keeping it on the chilly side across parts of northern england but either side of that there was warm

sunshine once again. thickening cloud coming into the english channel and that will develop wetter weather across southern counties of england. the final peta ad across northern england and there is a bad of rain to head into the far north of rain to head into the far north of scotland but the west of mainland scotland having some clearer skies and perhaps a slight frost overnight. so cold elsewhere. low cloud, mist and fog coming in to the eastern parts of england into the midlands as well. that was slowly turns to lift but it could linger and keep it cold across some parts of the east midlands, lincolnshire and east anglia. otherwise you will see some sunshine. cher was breaking out. rain heading out into the english channel and some wet weather moving on to scotland and that will turn wintry in the hills. for all of us it will be a colder day on tuesday. the really cold air is to the north of that weather front, bringing wet weather down across scotland and a weather front continue southwards overnight and into a dense day so we have got the stone of cloudy weather here. this is where we have got rain but also sleet and snow over the hills and to

the north of that sum sunshine with those showers turning increasingly wintry in during down that cold array behind the weather front which is sort of in the sort of position on wednesday. as we head into wednesday night that wetter weather continues to run southwards. cold array are digging in olderfile. rain is likely to turn to sleet and snow across southern parts of england and wales. aside covering here and there and that will tend to slow the move away and then a whole rash of wintry showers, hail, sleet and snow on thursday and those temperatures are typically 6 degrees down the eastern side of the uk and it will feel much colder in the stronger winds.
