this is bbc news. i'm david eades. we start with breaking news from new york state: ten people have been killed in a shooting at a supermarket in the city of buffalo — three people have been injured. the fbi say they are investigating the incident as both a hate crime and a case of racially motivated violent extremism.

11 of the 13 victims were african american. an 18—year—old man has been arrested at the scene — he's not been officially named by the authorities. police say the suspect entered the busy grocery store before opening fire. he also used a camera to live—stream the attack online. he was described as "very heavily armed" and had a tactical helmet and gear. an eyewitness at the scene described the moment he saw the gunman being arrested. after he came out, he had an army suit on, brown boots, sunglasses on, he had a hat on, he had a machine gun or something with a strap on it. he took the machine gun with the strap and put it to his chin. he put the gun down on a strap, and then he took the gun, he put it down, he did put something on his feet, he took his vest off, and then got on his hands and knees and back, and then they arrested him. earlier, officials in buffalo held a press conference.

meanwhile president volodymyr zelensky says the situation in the donbas remains difficult, with moscow still aiming for some kind of victory there. sweden's governing social democrats are set to announce on sunday whether or not they've decided to formally supportjoining nato. there's been growing public support in sweden for the move following russia's invasion of ukraine, and opposition parties have already called on the government to join the alliance. the move, together with finland's application, is backed by most of the 30 existing nato members though turkey has expressed some misgivings. demonstrations in support of a woman's right to abortion are taking place in cities across the us. thousands of people have marched on the supreme court in washington, following the leak of a draft that suggested the justices were preparing to overturn the ruling which established the right to an abortion. the room has viewed the spanish

energy company repsol and five other businesses over a coastal oil spill described by the un as the country's worst ecological disaster. to lewis claiming $4.5 billion. —— peru is claiming. let's return to our main story — the mass shooting it's in buffalo in which ten people were killed. wbfo reporter, emyle watkins gave me more information about the shooter and how the community has reacted to the shootings. the gunman was from broome county which i believe a is about 200 miles away from here. that is several hours away, closer to new york city and i think that is hitting everyone hard that someone would drive so far to commit an act like this. obviously a very deliberate act. what have they been saying about the way that it has affected them? obviously it is

shocking but the fact that it has already been called out as a racially motivated crime and a hate crime. this community is heavily african—american. i have a colleague on scene getting community reaction right now. the city has been deploying mental health professionals to be on the scene, talking to people. they have set up a command centre for families to be reunited. my understanding is many families may not even know that their loved one could be deceased, others are still finding out. and there are families gathering around the scene, just wondering about what had happened, before we knew more details trying to figure out why something like this would happen. did anyone express a view about racial tensions? it was something some politicians picked up on, saying that this cannot exacerbate racial tensions in the area.

the people i talk to, we hadn't gotten into that topic so far. i know there is lots of concern about igniting racial tensions but it is very early to say if that would be the case, and i know that, with the gunman being from so far away, they are still sorting out the details of why someone would do something like this. the other question we would tend to ask straightaway is what an 18—year—old might be doing with a very high—powered weapon like this. i know that that is a familiar theme, but i understand the buffalo police have been on a campaign to try to reduce the amount of guns in the community in the last weeks and months. is that a prevailing issue? yes, absolutely. even as a reporter, when i get alerts to my phone and i hear about a shooting, it happens so commonly in this

city and today it really stunned us when we realised how many people had died. shootings are a massive issue in buffalo. we have done a lot of work on gun violence. the governor had been planning on announcing some sort of comprehensive gun package, and we will hear more about that in the days to but guns and illegal guns are quite an issue for our city. you probably heard the governor talking about the role of social networks in enabling and live streaming an event like this which is pretty appalling to many of us. she described them as being "moral accomplices". is it something that a lot of people picked up on in terms of going to the social networks, to see? you know, i know that immediately after it happened we started seeing some of these videos and photos coming up on social media. i believe the network

it was streamed on took it down but the video i did see that they were being shared on social media, some of it really quite graphic, and it seems like they are trying to work to remove them but i am not sure to the extent of how far that has been completed. daughter emily watkins in buffalo. —— reporter alec —— reporter emily watkins. the mayor of ukraine's second largest city — kharkiv — has told the bbc that russian forces have withdrawn from the city area and are heading for the russian border. ihor terekhov said shelling had stopped, and that residents were gradually returning. looks kharkiv — in the north—east of the country, has been heavily bombarded since the start of the invasion, with hundreds of civilians killed. in the last few hours, president zelensky said the situation in the eastern donbas region remained very difficult. our correspondent laura bicker sent this report from dnipro. yesterday, these smouldering ruins were a home.

russian bombs blasted the bricks and mortar, but they've not broken the spirit of this woman. translation: we were standing here as everything exploded. - "my sunshine, you're alive!" her neighbours were relieved to find each other. the russians have now left here, retreated back to near the border. the battle for kharkiv and its surrounding villages has been won — for now. russia's withdrawal from kharkiv marks a breaking point, according to the head of military intelligence in ukraine. what he means is that forces can be sent east to the donbas and south towards the besieged port of mariupol, areas that are seeing the most intense fighting. just south of dnipro, ukrainian forces test out new grenade launchers... ..weapons supplied from european allies. russian troops are not farfrom here. the ukrainians hope they can push them back and replicate the success of kharkiv.

but even with new weapons, a quick victory is farfrom assured. both sides agree on just one thing — this conflict will continue. translation: today, | nobody can predict how long this war will last, but we're doing everything in order to free our land as soon as possible. this is our priority, every day to work towards making the war shorter. however, it doesn't depend only on our people, unfortunately. translation: the collective west has declared total - hybrid war on us, and it's hard to predict how long _ this will last, but it's clear. the consequences will be felt by everyone, without exception. the ukrainians hold onto every hope. the battered city of mariupol has still not completely fallen, despite taking the most intense battering of this war. encircled and under constant bombardment, a small

fighting force battles on. russia is still trying to show its strength and issued its own propaganda of troops on the offensive, but there's no doubt the loss of kharkiv will be a major blow to the kremlin. and both sides are now digging in for what could be a long and protracted struggle. laura bicker, bbc news, dnipro. turkey appears to be softening its position on plans by finland and sweden tojoin nato. ankara has accused the two nordic countries of harbouring kurdish people it deems to be terrorists. but the turkish foreign minister now says his country is ready to talk about the proposals. mark lobel reports. finland and sweden yet to officially apply for nato membership, one of the organisation's members has concerns. ankara has accused the two nordic countries of

ten people have been killed in a mass shooting by a lone gunman at a grocery store in the us city of buffalo. the 18 year old suspect, who drove for a number of hours to reach the supermarket, has been taken into police custody. demonstrations in support of a woman's right to abortion have been taking place in cities across the united states. organisers say there'll be what they call a summer of rage if the supreme court overturns the legal right to abortion. it's our correspondent, will grant, has the latest from washington. a woman's right to choose is her business. the message to the supreme court was loud and unequivocal. when our reproductive justice rights are under attack, what do we do? stand and fight! "no bans on our bodies. we won't go back," chanted the thousands who turned out in washington dc to demand the landmark abortion law roe v wade isn't touched, that legislators and judges do not meddle with the decades long

right to choose what they do with their bodies. it was a call which transcended age and race. i think that we're going in the worst direction possible and i don't know. i feel like the first abortion march that i went to was when i was like three years old. and the fact that i'm still here and now i'm 17 and i'm still having to fight for my right. that just shows that we have made little to no progress. and it's gut wrenching. abortion is basic health care. it's basic health care. it's horrific that this country continues to abuse their power to oppress people over their basic health care and basic rights. it was a similar story in hundreds of cities across the country. the anger and frustration palpable. organisers have promised a summer of rage if the law is eventually reversed. back in washington, the crowd began to march on the seat ofjudicial power itself. young people who have attended this march are furious that they are having to fight for the same reproductive rights enjoyed

by their grandmothers and mothers. furthermore, they fear that this may be a tipping point for other established freedoms in the united states. the supreme court has confirmed that a draft ruling leaked last week was genuine, but said a final decision is yet to be taken. the republican party is confident that most americans will, in fact accept an end to roe v wade, with more than half the states ready to enact a ban on abortion if the law is changed. these protesters, though, vehemently disagree and insist they are in the majority on the issue of a woman's right to choose. will grant, bbc news, washington, dc. a never before moment now, a british man has broken the record for climbing the most summits of mount everest by a non—sherpa. kenton cool has already topped the world's highest peak 15 times, and hasjust reached

liverpool have won the men's fa cup final after beating chelsea on penalties at wembley. the result means liverpool are a step closer to winning the quadruple, as they hope to add the english premier league and the european champions league titles in the next few weeks. nesta mcgregor reports from wembley. another event this weekend where you represented by waving yourflag — although, in the fa cup, it's not a case of nil point, more point to prove — an occasion where even brotherly love is put on hold. as liverpool chased an english football record of four trophies in a season, chelsea were trying to avoid three fa cup final defeats in a row. liverpool started freshest and fastest, but luis diaz's finish didn't match his clever run. 30 minutes in, the reds were forced into a substitution, and it was a key player — top scorer mo salah. a goalless first half and, after the break, chelsea settled. they came closest to getting on the scoresheet when, from a free kick, marcus

alonso grazed the post. as full—time neared, one final chance. the game, so close. so, that meant extra time and a chance for extra words of encouragement between players and from fans. when either team failed to score, penalties would decide the winner. so, when mason mount missed, a successful liverpool spot kick would win it. commentator: liverpool's hero! i think it was the toughest game. but i respect it. it's normal because it's final. we have two more to go. we'll see. liverpool have the fa cup! cheering the second trip to wembley and second time they have lifted a trophy here.

the quest for the quadruple of trophies in one season lives on. from wembley, nesta mcgregor, bbc news. hello there. hasn't it been a glorious start to the weekend? hardly a cloud in the sky for many. lots of warm, spring sunshine but it was london that recorded the highest temperature, just shy of the warmest day of the year so far with 23.5 celsius. but i do need to draw your attention to this little feature running up through the south—west as we speak, and it's going to continue to bring some sharp, possibly thundery downpours during the early hours of sunday morning. so, becoming more heavy and widespread to central and southern england towards dawn, and yes, that means some welcome rain potentially for the gardens. but not all of us will see those showers, but some of them could be quite potent. they will be running up through east anglia by the middle part of the morning and all the showers drifting steadily northwards. that means we should see an improving picture across england and wales into the afternoon with sunshine and warmth returning and highs of 23 degrees. not a bad afternoon in western

scotland if you dodge the showers and keep the sun as well. sunday night and into monday morning, showers and longer spells of rain merging together as this front enhances precipitation. we will see some wet weather drifting its way steadily northwards to begin with during monday morning, and that means a tricky story to tell across northern ireland, northern england and scotland by the middle of monday afternoon. once again, an improving picture across england and wales after the early morning rain eases away, temperatures will recover. again, we could see 23 celsius. another area of low pressure pushing in from the west, but as it bumps into the high sitting across europe, it looks likely that most of the rain will stay out into western areas, and ahead of it, it's really going to throw up some warm and humid air, so there's the potential on tuesday for some of us to see the warmest day of the week with highs of 25 celsius. but out to the west,

and the cloud and rain, we're looking at mid to high teens. as we move out of tuesday into wednesday and through the middle part of the week, we do see these weather fronts starting to ease away and high pressure building in once again. there will be some outbreaks of rain to clear away, but generally speaking through the middle part of the week, it looks likely to turn that little bit quieter and again, still pretty warm.

this is bbc news, the headlines: at least ten people have been killed in a mass shooting at a supermarket in the us city of buffalo in new york state. the 18—year—old suspect has been taken into custody. police are calling it a hate crime and an act of "racially motivated violent extremism". ii of the 13 victims were african american. the mayor of ukraine's second—largest city kharkiv has told the bbc that russian troops have withdrawn from his city, which has been under constant bombardment since the invasion began. but, president zelensky has said the situation

in the eastern donbas region remains very difficult.
