centre in the central ukrainian city of kremenchuk. at least two people have been killed and 20 others injured. president zelensky said more than a thousand people had been inside at the time of the attack. let me show some of the latest pictures that have come in, and these in the immediate aftermath of that strike, 3:50pm local time, it was, and we see the huge fires that they were dealing with. this is a really large site, 20,000 m2, in terms of the shopping centre itself, and there you see what has been going on for the last hour and a half, which is the search for people and those injured being looked after by the emergency authorities, but the focus has been on that massive fire. in terms of the details of numbers, i read out in terms of confirmed casualties, but with the president saying around 1000 people were in this shopping centre, at the time, clearly those numbers are likely to rise in the next little while. but those just some of the

latest pictures. let's hear more of the latest detail. we heard more a few moments ago from nick beake, our correspondent in kyiv the. the few moments ago from nick beake, our correspondent in kyiv the.— correspondent in kyiv the. the video emer: in: correspondent in kyiv the. the video emerging speaks — correspondent in kyiv the. the video emerging speaks for _ correspondent in kyiv the. the video emerging speaks for itself, - correspondent in kyiv the. the video emerging speaks for itself, really. . emerging speaks for itself, really. a large part of this shopping centre engulfed in flames, lots of smoke, and also some video people purportedly trapped inside is now emerging. we do have an update from the deputy head of the ukrainian presidential office, saying that at least two people have been killed, 20 people are wounded, nine of those are seriously wounded, but the fear is, and sadly the expectation is, that the number of casualties could rise in the coming hours. residence lenski, as you said, has described this as a despicable act —— presidential —— president zelensky. .. —— president zelensky... the estimate is about 1000 people inside, and i think that reflected the number of concern. the number of

people who have been killed and injured could rise quite significant these. , , , , ., , these. yes, it is very, very early on, these. yes, it is very, very early on. these _ these. yes, it is very, very early on, these pictures _ these. yes, it is very, very early on, these pictures we _ these. yes, it is very, very early on, these pictures we been - these. yes, it is very, very early i on, these pictures we been looking at, nick, and the city mayor is on site. he will not say exactly how money people were killed, but the deputy head of the ukrainian presidential office saying at least two people known to have died and 20 more wounded in this missile strike, but i suppose the immediate task at hand is dealing with the fires and actually trying to get people out at the moment. actually trying to get people out at the moment-— actually trying to get people out at the moment. ~ , ,., , a, . the moment. absolutely, matthew. we have heard from _ the moment. absolutely, matthew. we have heard from the _ the moment. absolutely, matthew. we have heard from the authorities. - the moment. absolutely, matthew. we have heard from the authorities. a - have heard from the authorities. a number of emergency services, as you would imagine, are there now doing their bit, but certainly the images we saw, the ferocity of the flames, would make any sort of rescue scenario at this point extremely difficult, but clearly a full emergency is under way there. i can tell you what the governor has said. this is the region where the city is

located. he said, this is a war crime, another russian war crime, and act against immunity. an act of terror against the civilian population, and then goes on to talk about doctors, police officers all doing their bit. i can tell you that come and check is a city in the middle of ukraine, where they had had missile strikes at the end of before —— kremenchuk. it certainly has been in the sights of the russians for a while, but nothing on the scale of what we have seen today, and this, it is worth stressing, is a civilian target, a shopping centre. president zelensky says possibly 1000 people inside at the time of impact.— the time of impact. more detail cominu the time of impact. more detail coming in _ the time of impact. more detail coming in all— the time of impact. more detail coming in all the _ the time of impact. more detail coming in all the time, - the time of impact. more detail coming in all the time, nick. i the time of impact. more detail| coming in all the time, nick. let the time of impact. more detail- coming in all the time, nick. let me bring you a little more from presidential —— president zelensky, who said this area showed no threat to the russian

people, helplessness, russia continues to help ordinary people. it is vain to expected to be reasonable or humane. all of this —— continues to hurt. the g7 summit, leaders absolutely focused on what is happening on the ground there in ukraine. ~ ,,., , ., is happening on the ground there in ukraine. ~ ,,., , . , is happening on the ground there in ukraine. ~ ,,., , ., , .,, ukraine. absolutely, and this was a weekend, matthew, _ ukraine. absolutely, and this was a weekend, matthew, where - ukraine. absolutely, and this was a j weekend, matthew, where missiles returned to the capital city kyiv after a relative lowell over weeks and we sign strike on a really residential apartment block, and this came at a time when those g7 leaders were meeting. he felt as if president putin was sending his own message, because this particular place had been targeted when the un secretary—general had been visiting a couple of months ago, and so once again, this attack, as you say, early days, but this attack on a civilian target sending a message, it would seem. if we look at the

geography of the place, whether or not there were other intended targets nearby, that would be something people will assess the hours that tom, but irrespective what the intended target has been, this missile, maybe there were more, as it is shopping centre and many, many people inside, 1000 people, he believes, possibly more than that, and at this point, he says it is unimaginable, the number of people injured in this full stub just to reiterate, we have heard two people are confirmed to have been killed, 20 injured, nine seriously injured, but the number of casualties could increase quieten —— quite considerably in the number —— coming hours. -- coming hours. nick beake. do stay with us, because we will be talking to the ukrainian mp lesia vasylenko, who will give us the latest on that breaking story.

news of that attack as the g7 summit is happening, the g7 leaders meeting. the leaders of the g7 have promised they will stand with ukraine for "as long as it takes" as they announced they would step up sanctions on russia. president zelenskyjoined the summit, remotely, and told the leaders he wanted the war to be over by the end of the year. let's go live to shaun ley, who's at the summit. has there been any reaction from the leaders where you are to the events emerging? we leaders where you are to the events emeruain ? ~ . leaders where you are to the events emerauin? ~ . , . ., ., emerging? we are expecting on camera reaction in next — emerging? we are expecting on camera reaction in next hour— emerging? we are expecting on camera reaction in next hour or _ emerging? we are expecting on camera reaction in next hour or so. _ emerging? we are expecting on camera reaction in next hour or so. the - reaction in next hour or so. the british prime minister reported to be making some kind of on camera statement about the attack, but it is interesting that 0laf scholz, he is interesting that 0laf scholz, he is briefing journalist right now. the german chancellor is the host of this event being held in bavaria and he said that the future relationship between g7 countries and russia, it

cannot return to what it has been before the warfel to be in other words, the atrocities have been so great, the brutalities of extreme, more than just a direct straightforward conflict, that this has been in their view a war of aggression and in —— and intake to accredit more that they cannot go back to how things were, and that is and anna missile warning, because there were some countries like germany did not want to see russia humility and that way. "we will need a relationship," they said, with moscow when the war was over. the problem is, the more events there are, the more enraged public opinion in their country is, democratic countries, about what a totalitarian country is doing in ukraine, the less likely that could be a positive or confrontive relationship. 0ur nipple medic correspondent james

—— our diplomatic correspondent james landale reports on the day's developments. look whojoined them look who joined them on that screen on the left... he wanted the war over by the end of the year, before the winter sets in. according to eu sources the also asked for more anti—aircraft defence systems, more sanctions on russia and greater security guarantees. borisjohnson argued the g7 had to do more, to help ukraine defend itself, rebuild its economy and export its grain. ella mai everybody came to the g7 in germany really hearing a lot about ukraine fatigue, the anxieties of other countries around the world, the effect on food prices, on energy prices, and what is really struck me in the last couple of days has been

the amazing consistency of our resolve, the continuing unity of the g7. ~ ., �* ., , resolve, the continuing unity of the g7. what boris johnson is trying to do here is remake _ g7. what boris johnson is trying to do here is remake the _ g7. what boris johnson is trying to do here is remake the case - g7. what boris johnson is trying to do here is remake the case for- do here is remake the case for supporting ukraine. he's acknowledging openly there are anxieties about the impact of western sanctions on things like energy prices and food prices, but he is saying that is a price worth paying to avoid more pain down the track. and that argument involves history and the importance of defeating dictators. just remember, it took the democracies _ defeating dictators. just remember, it took the democracies in _ defeating dictators. just remember, it took the democracies in the - it took the democracies in the middle of the last century a long time to recognise that they had to resist tyranny and aggression took a long time. it was very expensive, but what it bought in the end, with the defeat of the dictators, particularly of the nazi germany, it brought decades and decades of stability, a world order that relied on a rules—based international

shaun ley there for us at the g7 summit, and as we heard, reflecting the g7 leaders, very much standing together, saying that they stand with ukraine for the long—term. and of course we are absolutely keeping and i on everything that is happening in ukraine as well. —— keeping an eye. we will, though, turned to other news. the prime minister has brushed off continuing questions about his leadership, saying he's focusing on his work and the plans to get on with the government's agenda. borisjohnson says it is his job to "humbly accept" criticism and help people through the cost of living crisis. 0ur political editor chris mason has been talking to him at the g7 summit. prime minister, what is it about your character that is repelling voters at the moment and repelling so many of your mps? look, i think that the golden rule of politics is, if possible, despite all the very polite invitations of brilliant journalists, resist comment

on politics or personalising... but you know criticism is about your character from plenty on your own side, and they want to see some change. and you talked at the weekend about how there wouldn't be a psychological transformation. how are you going to change? can you convince people you are going to change? so what we are going to do is get on with our agenda. as i said i think at the weekend, in times like this, of course there are going to be criticisms of political leaders. it's myjob to humbly accept those criticisms. the lesson that i think that i, people like me, need to learn from what is going on, inflationary pressures that we are facing around the world, number one, we need to help people through the current pressures. and you know, at the pumps people are thinking, you know, this government could do more to help me with the cost of fuel. people are thinking, what are they doing to help me with the cost of food?

so, we are doing as much as we possibly can. people have heard you say that, prime minister, but they will also think when you think about serving three terms, when you talk about policy rather than character, will your critics not think you are walking around with your fingers in your ears, you are not listening? i think the job of a government is to get on with governing. but do you actually have the authority now to deliver that policy? i not only have the authority, i've got a new mandate for my party, which i'm absolutely delighted about... 40% of them want rid of you? ..which is, which is... i got more... ..a higher percentage of... anyway, that's done. it was, it was, it was a couple of weeks ago. no, it's not done. they are still talking about it, it's still a live question. can you deliver the policy platform you're talking about with your authority clearly weakened ? of course we can. and we're going to continue to do that. and we're focused on that 1,000%. that's the agenda for the government. can you carry on to the 2030s? look, we are going to... we are going to get on with the agenda on which i was elected. it's a massive agenda. we are coping with, dealing

with the big problems that have been left behind by the pandemic. and that is the priority. chris mason talking to the prime minister at the g7 summit. we will talk more about that later in the hour, but for now, we will talk about that really, really grim story in birmingham. a woman has died and a man is being treated for life—threatening injuries following a gas explosion that tore through a street in birmingham. 0ne house was destroyed in the blast and several others were badly damaged. neighbours risked their lives to clamber through the burning wreckage to pull out the injured man. 0ur correspondent phil mackie reports from the scene. a scene of devastation in dulwich road. a sunny sunday evening and a home blown apart. it just exploded. it was really, really scary. i thought something happened to my car.

all the airbags came out of the car, all the windows broken and the roof. it was really, really scary. i can't even explain how bad it was. bravely, a group of ten people run into the burning house to try to save those people inside, including keria parkinson's partner. it was just a day of sadness because look what's happened. a complete tragedy. but we are so proud of literally every single person that risked their lives to go in there and help somebody else. heroic. when fire crews turned up, police and members of the public had already started to mount a rescue of the individual. and when our crews turned up, we took over from that. but, yeah, the community has been great, notjust in the immediate aftermath, but also overnight in terms of supporting us. they know it was a gas explosion, but they don't know what caused it,

which is why you have the gas company, the police and fire investigators all down there beginning their investigations. neighbouring homes were badly damaged. the street remains cordoned off. only now can you see the full scale of the wreckage. 21 people had to be evacuated. many of them spent the night in a local pub. the house is such a gonner, there's nothing we can do. so we've got nothing. the only thing we've got is clothes are now bags, and nothing. all the money is in the house. my cards are in the house, everything is in the house. some people have been allowed back in to collect essentials. others may not get back into their homes for several days, if ever. phil mackie with that report. the former conservative prime minister sirjohn major has been giving evidence at a public inquiry into what's been described as the biggest medical disaster in the history of the nhs. nearly 5,000 people with haemophilia and other blood disorders were given a treatment infected with hiv or hepatitis in the 1970s and �*80s. sirjohn, who's been questioned about the level of financial support and compensation offered,

described what happened to those affected as "incredibly bad luck". 0ur health correspondent jim reed reports. i suppose the biggest impact is i'm not the person i was meant to have been. you can't erase the darkness, you can't erase the fear. it's always lurking. mark was just a child when he was warned about a medication he'd been given. his parents were told his new treatment for a blood disorder had been contaminated with hiv. i can't really describe the feeling, because it was, well, first of all, you question, why are you going to school to take exams for a future and a life you're not going to have? when your doctor says, "if you're lucky, but i don't think "you will live long enough to leave school," why bother? why? mark's life was saved by new hiv drugs. 0thers died before they could be made available. in total, 5,000 people

with haemophilia were left with hiv, hepatitis or both. many more were exposed after a blood transfusion in the �*70s and �*80s. this morning, the former prime ministerjohn major has started giving evidence at the long running public inquiry into the disaster. i swear by almighty god. he was working in the treasury in the late 1980s, and described a growing sense that public money would be needed to support the families affected. it was becoming apparent how serious the issue was, and how widespread the issue was, and how unsustainable it would be for the people who were suffering without some form of practical compensation. but his description of the disaster as bad luck drew gasps from the families watching, who've always believed more should have been done to understand the risks. i mean, there's no amount of compensation you can give that could actually compensate for what had happened to them. what had happened to them

was incredibly bad luck. gasps awful. and it was not something that anybody was unsympathetic to. i was falling asleep, i was being sick. melanie was another of the thousands infected when she was just 17. she was diagnosed with hepatitis c, a disease which can slowly destroy the liver, and has suffered from health problems ever since. as soon as i found out what hepatitis c was and realised that it was impacting on my life, and that i was possibly not going to see my children grow up, it has been like living without being alive. it's had a huge impact on every single victim. that feeling of, it could have been avoided. melanie is now on a different, modern treatment to control her blood disorder. like thousands of others,

though, she is still living with the consequences of what happened three decades ago and still looking for answers so many years later. jim reed, bbc news. 24 2a minutes past five p:m.. just to give you an update on that attack on the ukrainian shopping centre, borisjohnson condemning centre, boris johnson condemning what centre, borisjohnson condemning what he has described as vladimir putin's cruelty and barbarism following that missile attack on a shopping centre. borisjohnson shopping centre. boris johnson describing shopping centre. borisjohnson describing vladimir putin as, his actions, as cruel and barbaric. we will keep you up—to—date with that, of course, everyone in the region saying they're very concerned that the death toll in the number of injured will continue to rise in that attack, about 1000 people thought to be in that shopping centre. comments in the g7 starting

to come out about that attack. ghislaine maxwell has been put on suicide watch at a jail in new york. she's due to be sentenced on tuesday for grooming young girls forjeffrey epstein to abuse. her lawyers say her transfer to solitary confinement means she cannot access her legal documents and have asked for her sentencing to be delayed. criminal barristers in england and wales are taking strike action that's expected to delay trials. the dispute is about how much they're paid in legal aid to defend people who can't afford a lawyer. the government says the walk—outs will only delay justice for victims. earlier, i spoke to our home affairs correspondent tom symonds, who had this update. the old bailey has 16 courts, and most of them are not particularly active today. i have been told by the criminal bar association which represents barristers that, actually, court managers have been running down the work in the courts, knowing this day would come.

there were dozens of barristers blocking this street earlier today. they have walked out from courts all around london, and in most cases, without defence barristers there to take part, the trials have been stopped. it is difficult to say what the national picture is like. the government has not yet responded to our request to get some idea of numbers of cases disrupted, but the criminal bar association said it believed it would stop about a thousand cases today. we will see. what's at the heart of the issue of the strike? why go on strike? it's about pay. barristers are self—employed, but they are usually, defence barristers, at least, paid by the legal aid money which government pays for people to have representation in courts like this in serious trials and that money goes to pay defence barristers to defend them. how much do they earn? an independent review for the government said a newly

qualified barrister can earn as little as £9,000. that can go up to more like a8, £50,000 after seven or so years, but the concern is about those junior barristers leaving the profession because theyjust don't feel like they are well paid enough. in many cases, they have to stay up all night reading documents and information relating to the case before they go to trial for a whole day, and they are only paid for the time in court, effectively. the government has given them an increase of £15,000, but that money won't come through until barristers start claiming for cases which start after september, so quite a long delay, and the independent review last year for the government said that should just be the start of an increase in legal aid. legal aid has been falling over the last ten years, down 35%. very quickly, what's going to happen next?

it will escalate. two days this week, three days a week after and four days a week after that, and then the following week, monday—friday will have strikes. we will see what happens and whether these two sides can reach an agreement. 0ur our home affairs correspondent tom symonds on that strike by criminal barristers. let's turn to tonight to events at westminster. mps are due to vote this evening on controversial new legislation to give ministers powers to override some post—brexit trading arrangements for northern ireland. if passed, the law will allow the government to unilaterally remove checks on goods travelling to northern ireland from the rest of the uk. the eu's ambassador to britain called the plans illegal and unrealistic, but ministers say the change is needed to protect the good friday agreement.

let's hear the foreign secretary liz truss speaking the comments, just in the last little while. —— in the commons. this bill is both necessary and legal. and the government has published a legal statement setting it out. we continue to raise the issues of concern with our european partners, but we simply cannot allow this situation to drift. northern ireland has been without a devolved government since february, due specifically to the protocol, at a time of major global economic challenges. therefore, it is the duty of this government to act now, to enable a plan for restored local government to begin. it is both legal and necessary. this bill fixes the specific problems that had been caused in northern ireland whilst maintaining those parts of the protocol that are working. liz truss laying out part of the

government's attitude on this and the reason they say it is essential, just explain that debate in the commons is continuing, the vote will be in a few hours from now, david lam be there speaking for labour. nick thomas—symonds is the shadow secretary of state for international trade. he joins me from westminster. very good evening, thanks for leaving the chamber to come talk to us. you'll have heard some of the government's argument and i already — these are unnecessary barriers, say the government, and removing them will not endanger the eu single market, and that's way it needs to be done, they say. the market, and that's way it needs to be done, they say.— be done, they say. the foreign secretary _ be done, they say. the foreign secretary is — be done, they say. the foreign secretary is wrong _ be done, they say. the foreign secretary is wrong to _ be done, they say. the foreign secretary is wrong to say - be done, they say. the foreign secretary is wrong to say that i be done, they say. the foreign - secretary is wrong to say that what the government is doing is necessary and legal. in fact, what the government is doing is overwriting an agreement, an international

agreement that the prime minister negotiated and fallen election on — and that the prime minister has lauded as a great deal. in doing that, seeking to override the agreement in this way simply shows that this is a government that cannot keep its word, it is a government that is posturing politically and is not actually sitting down and doing the hard graft that's necessary to get a solution to the northern ireland protocol issue. the solution to the northern ireland protocol issue. solution to the northern ireland rotocol issue. ., ., protocol issue. the government would sa the protocol issue. the government would say they signed _ protocol issue. the government would say they signed it. _ protocol issue. the government would say they signed it, but _ protocol issue. the government would say they signed it, but the _ protocol issue. the government would say they signed it, but the eu - protocol issue. the government would say they signed it, but the eu is - say they signed it, but the eu is applying the protocol too rigidly. is there any validity to that? i think there is a validity in asking for flexibility think there is a validity in asking forflexibility on both think there is a validity in asking for flexibility on both sides. this government needs to actually be negotiating a veterinary agreement with the eu, which means that you wouldn't need checks on animals and animal products, which would take away the need for about 80% of the

checks. second, the government needs an agreement on data so that you can actually, in real time, an agreement on data so that you can actually, in realtime, have an agreement on data so that you can actually, in real time, have the information about where goods are, which again takes away the need for checks at the border. and on the eu side, the eu needs to recognise that there are certain products like, for example, a pre—packed sandwich that goes from great britain to northern ireland where there isn't a risk that it'll end up somewhere else in the single market. but what all this requires is sitting down around the table, doing the hard work that is necessary — and this government i'm afraid just isn't doing that. so afraid 'ust isn't doing that. so what afraid just isn't doing that. so what would you be doing if you are in this position right now, if it's was labour trying to tackle this? firstly, we would be negotiating the veterinary agreement, as i've indicated, which would take away the necessity for 80% of the checks. secondly, we would get that data agreement in place which would take away probably another 10% of the checks. we to be negotiating

flexibility on vat with the european union test we would be negotiating. those aren't negotiating objectives, but i'm very proud that the labour party is the party that managed to negotiate the good friday agreement backin negotiate the good friday agreement back in 1998 that has given a generation of people peace in northern ireland. as we sit here today with the government behaving as it is, they can't even sit down in negotiation and agreement to get a prawn sandwich overseas. but negotiations _ a prawn sandwich overseas. but negotiations take time, and all the while there is talk going on, nothing is happening at stormont. it is stalled, that's no way to progress, surely.— is stalled, that's no way to progress, surely. the way to progress _ progress, surely. the way to progress is _ progress, surely. the way to progress is to _ progress, surely. the way to progress is to get _ progress, surely. the way to progress is to get a - progress, surely. the way to progress is to get a solution| progress, surely. the way to l progress is to get a solution to progress, surely. the way to - progress is to get a solution to the protocol issue and get stormont back up protocol issue and get stormont back up and running. and acting in the way that the government is today, going back on its own word, breaking a treaty that the government itself negotiated is not the way that we

will find a solution to this. the way you find a solution to this is not glamourous, it'sjust way you find a solution to this is not glamourous, it's just something that requires statecraft, guile, and actually getting people around the table and finding that solution. that's what the government should be concentrating on, not the posturing we see today. but concentrating on, not the posturing we see today-— concentrating on, not the posturing we see today. but everything you're describin: we see today. but everything you're describing are _ we see today. but everything you're describing are things _ we see today. but everything you're describing are things that _ we see today. but everything you're describing are things that take - describing are things that take time. and if you're a business owner who dealing with bureaucracy, they want solutions now, they want to be able to operate their business. yes. able to operate their business. yes, but the idea — able to operate their business. yes, but the idea of _ able to operate their business. yes, but the idea of what _ able to operate their business. yes but the idea of what the government is doing today, which will somehow lead to a quicker solution or take away the need for the kinds of negotiations i'm speaking about is frankly wrong. with the government is doing today will make the situation worse— that hard work has to be done, it is the fault of ministers, of this government. they haven't been sitting around a table and doing this. now is the time they should be doing that and finding a solution that all sides require.

thank you for now, secretary of state for international trade. busy afternoon, we are keeping an eye on ukraine, and we'll talk more about that situation with a specialist in international relationships a little bit later in this hour. now let's look at the weather. hello, jane, thank you very much. it's been a day of sunshine and showers, more sunshine than showers, a few of the showers have been heavy across england england that eastern england. tomorrow in fact could see some wet and windy weather across northern and western areas as its area pressure encroaches closer towards our shores. you can see that tangle of weather fronts which will bring the wetter weather to northern and western areas, even by the end of tonight. what and windier here, further south and east should stay dry, —— wet and windier here.

9-12 c. so dry, —— wet and windier here. 9—12 c. so tomorrow, central and eastern areas will have more sunshine around, 1—2 showers darted around, the further north and west you are, the more isobars back together —— packed together. wind gusts reaching 40—50 mph for a time with this rain. wet and windy, disappointing temperatures, best of weather will be the further east were the highest temperature will be 22-23 c. were the highest temperature will be 22—23 c. see you later. thanks very much. sport now — and for a full round—up, from the bbc sport centre, here's isaac. day one of wimbledon. as ever, we've had the customary rain delays, but plenty of action taking place at the all england club. chetan pathak is there for us. 0n centre court, us open champion emma raducanu is making her debut on centre court. away from the show courts, it's been an up—and—down start

we weren't really sure what to expect of them around economy. she only played seven games at nottingham, into the fourth round here before, but amaretto condo had a slightly wobbly start, but she seems to have really been energised by that centre court crowd and powering through in the first set in the end to get herself over the line. both players breaking each other�*s serves, but amaretto condo winning that serve 6—4 in the end. moving well and feeling confident, and we know when emma is feeling energised particularly by the crowd, this is her centre court debut no less, her opponent shouldn't cause her any problems. it is tight and every game is a battle. yes he could still go either way, but emma is

hanging in there and fighting really well. we'll wait to see what happens with her — andy murray will be watching that one because he's on centre court straight after that match. like murray, he's had his injury challenges, nursing a side injury, up until that point merck was doing quite well. not sure what to expect of any murray here but if he's moving really well, there's no reason his opponent she calls into any problems. reason his opponent she calls into any problems-— reason his opponent she calls into any problems. away from the show courts, any problems. away from the show courts. it's — any problems. away from the show courts, it's been _ any problems. away from the show courts, it's been a _ any problems. away from the show courts, it's been a pretty _ courts, it's been a pretty up—and—down start for british players, hasn't it? it up-and-down start for british players, hasn't it?— up-and-down start for british players, hasn't it? it has been, nine british _ players, hasn't it? it has been, nine british players— players, hasn't it? it has been, nine british players playing - players, hasn't it? it has been, nine british players playing on | players, hasn't it? it has been, i nine british players playing on the opening day. we have more tomorrow, including the great talent of jack draper. but mixed today — cam norey is the to round two, he's hoping to

— it's now 253—8. —— herfirst —— her first international tonne. northern ireland boss kenny shiels' has named his squad for euro 2022 — and captain marissa callaghan "is expected to be ready" for callaghan and rebecca mckenna are both included after missing thursday's friendly in belgium through injury. cliftonville midfielder callaghan has not played since a "minor toe injury" left her in a protective boot in may. they get under way in the tournament on 7july against norway. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website — that's bbc.co.uk/sport. sportsday is in an hour with holly hamilton. we are watching bbc news, it is

5:42pm and we will return to the story that is dominating that programme. let's return to the news that at least two people have died and 20 people wounded in a russian missile strike on a shopping mall in the city of kremenchuk, in central ukraine. in the last few minutes, a local governor in the area has said the belief at the moment is that ten people have been killed and more than a0 have been injured. but you may know that ukraine's president zelensky says more than 1000 people may have been inside sheltering at the time of the attack. this footage from the site shows the building is badly damaged, with fire services struggling to control a blaze. well, to discuss this further, i am nowjoined by drjulie norman, who's the co—director of the ucl centre on us politics.

very good evening to you, doctor. first, your thoughts on the timing of this missile strike?— of this missile strike? obviously such a tragic— of this missile strike? obviously such a tragic strike, _ of this missile strike? obviously such a tragic strike, but - of this missile strike? obviously such a tragic strike, but one - of this missile strike? obviously| such a tragic strike, but one that probably cannot be separated too much from the g7 meeting taking place today where we heard really quite forcefully from western leaders their commitment to continue to support ukraine as long as it takes. so i think we would've seen this kind of escalation targeting civilian from food and regardless, but certainly the timing on this exact day, i think we can read this is a message from bruton to the west trying to push back at the solidarity we've seen also western countries... committing to about $30 billion more in support ukraine and again, suggesting that they'll be behind ukraine in the face of these kinds of attacks from russia. band behind ukraine in the face of these kinds of attacks from russia. and g7 leaders actually _ kinds of attacks from russia. and g7

leaders actually putting _ kinds of attacks from russia. and g7 leaders actually putting on _ kinds of attacks from russia. and g7 leaders actually putting on a - kinds of attacks from russia. and g7 leaders actually putting on a united l leaders actually putting on a united front, saying they'll stay the course with ukraine. but here is a grim, brutal example of moscow's superiority in terms of weaponry, resources and so on. it is certainly a flecks of— resources and so on. it is certainly a flecks of the _ resources and so on. it is certainly a flecks of the muscles, _ resources and so on. it is certainly a flecks of the muscles, if- a flecks of the muscles, if you will, from putin. and certainly this tactic is not new for russia — we've seen targeting of civilians within this conflict before, and we've also seen this kind of targeting of civilians in previous operations that russia has conducted in syria and chechnya, particularly when these conflicts had a point where it is more contracted, it's more of a slow slog for russia, we see more of this targeting to literally make the population of the other side suffer and try to force them to the point of negotiations or some kind of surrender. unfortunately this is part of the russian playbook that we've seen before. bud

part of the russian playbook that we've seen before.— we've seen before. and what everybody — we've seen before. and what everybody watching - we've seen before. and what everybody watching wants i we've seen before. and what everybody watching wants is | we've seen before. and whatl everybody watching wants is a solution — how do you and this, how do you stop the slaughter of innocent civilians? —— and this? that's the question we'd all like to know the answer to. we heard president zelensky say today that he hopes for an end of the war by the end of the year, suggesting there may be some kind of end point. in reality, it'll be tough. we often don't see russia leaving anytime soon, and likewise ukraine and president zelensky are not looking to back down at any time either. we've heard the west say any move towards negotiation will be up to ukraine. i think what will probably start expecting now is this united front very much publicly and with ukraine, but also conversations starting to happen probably behind closed doors of what negotiations might look like. how can the western actors help ukraine get to a good negotiating position, but what can we think about pragmatically that

might have to be considered as some rises in potential negotiations when they happen, whether sooner or later. �* . , they happen, whether sooner or later. ~ ., , , ,. , later. and that is behind-the-scenes because ukraine _ later. and that is behind-the-scenes because ukraine quite _ later. and that is behind-the-scenes because ukraine quite rightly - later. and that is behind-the-scenes because ukraine quite rightly would l because ukraine quite rightly would not want to concede any land, for example, if that was one of the topics that would be on the negotiating table. they are a sovereign nation that have been event —— invaded. but is it your point that the g7 will start to have those conversations, may be is already having those conversations with ukraine in order to bring an end to bloodshed? bath with ukraine in order to bring an end to bloodshed?— with ukraine in order to bring an end to bloodshed? both things can be true - the g7 — end to bloodshed? both things can be true - the g7 can _ end to bloodshed? both things can be true - the g7 can support _ end to bloodshed? both things can be true - the g7 can support ukraine i true — the g7 can support ukraine and the operations militarily and diplomatically, and what's up dust and whatnot, but it is distressing to think what will this endgame look like, what will we be able to say we want going into negotiations, but what will we be able to compromise on also? that will centre on

territory, we've also heard from the g7 today a willingness to some kind of security commitments potentially to ukraine with any kind of negotiation — that's decided at the end. so these are things ukraine wanted to know going into any potential future negotiations here, so it'll be a bit of a back—and—forth but this conversations, i think we can trust they are happening.— conversations, i think we can trust they are happening. doctor, good to hear our they are happening. doctor, good to hear your perspective, _ they are happening. doctor, good to hear your perspective, thanks i they are happening. doctor, good to hear your perspective, thanks there | hear your perspective, thanks there for your perspective there. nhs england says it's stepping up efforts to treat people who've been waiting more than two years for surgery. some people could be offered treatment in other parts of the country — with the nhs covering many people's travel and accommodation costs. it's part of a drive to cut the number of people waiting more than two years to zero, byjuly. in january this year, there were around 22,500 people waiting over two years. that's now fallen to around 6,700.

most of those people will be offered treatment elsewhere. more than a00 people have already said they would be prepared to travel. it is all part of that wider drive for the nhs to cut the backlogs made during the pandemic. we will speak to one man who is indeed waiting for some major surgery. saffron cordery is the deputy chief executive of nhs providers, which represents nhs trusts in england. well, what we will see is the arrangements being made between different hospital trusts in order to make sure that the patients who need that treatment will be supported. so things like travel costs and accommodation costs, so that it's not a barrier for them actually receiving the treatment. and we see that happening already — so it's been an important contribution to bringing down the numbers waiting two years. but i

think what we have to remember here also is that, whilst these are really important steps in the right direction, they are not the only measures being taken.- direction, they are not the only measures being taken. saffron cordry there, measures being taken. saffron cordry there. speaking _ measures being taken. saffron cordry there, speaking about _ measures being taken. saffron cordry there, speaking about the _ measures being taken. saffron cordry there, speaking about the thinking i there, speaking about the thinking behind this idea to ask people to travel away from their local area in order to get their surgery. we can speak now to preston, who's from halifax. he's asked us not to use his surname. thanks for being on with us — you are waiting on what, to me, sounds like something extremely painful to be sorted out. i know you're happy to talk about it. explain to us first of all what you've been waiting for and how long you've been waiting. waiting for and how long you've been waitinu. . ~ waiting for and how long you've been waitinu. ., ,, i. �* waiting for and how long you've been waitinu. . ~ ,, �* , waiting. thank you. i've been waitin: waiting. thank you. i've been waiting - _ waiting. thank you. i've been waiting - i've _ waiting. thank you. i've been waiting - i've had _ waiting. thank you. i've been waiting - i've had seven i waiting. thank you. i've been waiting - i've had seven lots| waiting. thank you. i've been i waiting - i've had seven lots of waiting — i've had seven lots of surgery since i was in my late 30s. i'm waiting for another procedure since 2018, which is a fusion of

no answer, unanswered telephones. i've heard nothing from them. so speaking with my gp tomorrow to see whether we can progress at there. given this is such a major quality of life issue for you, we all know about everything the country has been through the last few years but, despite the pandemic, what are your thoughts about the way — you've described it to us as you've been left, you haven't been kept up—to—date or in contact with even though you are waiting for something so major? though you are waiting for something so ma'or? . �* , though you are waiting for something so ma'or? ., �*, , so major? that's exactly right. certainly for— so major? that's exactly right. certainly for the _ so major? that's exactly right. certainly for the last _ so major? that's exactly right. certainly for the last eight i so major? that's exactly right. i certainly for the last eight months, i've been using two walking sticks rather than one, and it is certainly an indicator of how bad it's getting the last few months. so the quicker the last few months. so the quicker the better, really. i would've thought this could've been sorted out next week or the week after if they just out next week or the week after if theyjust had the political will to spend some money to get it sorted.

saying, "the un is concerned about the intensifying violence." the un describes this as deplorable, the prime minister who is still at the g7 meeting in the last half an hour, his office is issued a statement describing putin's behaviour as "cruel and barbaric". we know for sure from a governor in the region that ten people are known to have died and more than a0 injured. but when you look at the size of the building and the intensity of the fire that's been sparked there, regrettably many people in the area feel that that death toll will right dummett rise considerably. president zelensky believes about 1000 people were inside that shopping centre at the time the missiles struck. more of that coming up in the 6pm news. the queen is travel to scotland with members of her family for their traditional week of events north of
